Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 1850 Forced surrender of Cao Mengde

"Hahaha, he, Cao Mengde, has this day!" Above the court, Li Xiang held up Cao Cao's offer to submit to the Great Jin and beg for help. He didn't care about Xun You, whom Cao Cao sent as a lobbyist.

At such a critical time, Cao Cao dispatched his chief conspirator. It can be seen that Cao Cao really has no choice at this time.As long as the situation facing Cao Cao eased up a bit, it would not be necessary to directly send out his own mastermind for this matter.

And Xun You is currently the most suitable person under Cao Cao's hands. There are many people from the Xun family who served as officials under Li Xiang's hands, which will always be helpful to Xun You.

Even if those clansmen won't help Xun You, at least they won't make trouble.Even, maybe there will be a little insinuation and pointers without violating the principle.

Perhaps for other members of the Xun family, it doesn't matter to them to insinuate a little sideways without violating the principle.But for the current Cao Cao forces, such a little help is likely to turn their situation around. Although the chance is very small, we must work hard to grasp it.

As for Xun You, facing Li Xiang's unscrupulous smile, even if he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, it was not good to express too much at this time.

There was no other way, Cao Cao begged Li Xiang for help!Unless the bottom line is broken, otherwise within the tolerance range, if you didn't hear it, then treat it as if you didn't hear it!

Anyway, maybe even if Cao Cao was present, he wouldn't care about this kind of thing at this time, maybe he would have the cheek to go along with Li Xiang.

In this world, how many monarchs are there, and their skins are not thick?
This time, Cao Cao spent some money in order to get Li Xiang's help.He wanted to dedicate the three daughters Cao Xian, Cao Jie and Cao Hua to Li Xiang, and promised to call himself a Jin minister in the future.Moreover, he was even brought here by Xun You, and is now placed in Luoyang City.

Of course, the three daughters may not be considered too much capital for Cao Cao.These three daughters together may not have much status in Cao Cao's mind. After all, in history, in order to achieve his own goals, Cao Cao gave all his seven daughters to Han Xiandi Liu Xie one after another. .

What's more, how high can the status of ancient women be?

This is because among Cao Cao's daughters, only these three ages are suitable.Otherwise, maybe Li Xiang would have to enjoy Liu Xie's treatment.

As for claiming to be a Jin minister, this is even more of a blank promise. Li Xiang didn't take Cao Cao's promise seriously at all.

Even if Cao Cao regarded himself as a minister of Jin, as long as he survived this crisis and continued to deal with Li Xiang later, it would not affect him to abandon his status as minister of Jin and continue to regard himself as a minister of Han.

Is it possible that other princes will dislike Cao Cao as Li Xiang's courtier at that time, and give up this force to join?
This kind of verbal thing can't be done at all!It will not affect Cao Cao's repeated horizontal jumps when necessary in the future!Although there are costs, the benefits are sufficient.

Therefore, unless Cao Cao completely renounces his rights, the general and political power will also be handed over.Otherwise, the point is not entirely meaningless, but at least not of much practical significance.

"Your Majesty, although the Great Jin Dynasty is strong, it is still in its infancy after all. It is not as popular as the Great Han Dynasty for 400 years, and there are indeed princes from all over the world who are against it! If our Lord joins, His Majesty's reputation will definitely be improved! At that time, with Your Majesty With the help of my lord, we can sweep the world down just around the corner!" Xun You stands proudly.

"Meng De wants to be a minister of Jin, of course there is nothing he can do! With Meng De's talent, a position of prime minister is more than enough! If Meng De returns to Jin, I will give him the position of prime minister, and I will go to Luoyang for 30 miles in person Welcome Meng De!" Li Xiang waved his hand.

However, what Li Xiang said was nice, but Xun You's complexion was like a pool of stagnant water.

Li Xiang was clearly telling them that if he wanted them to send troops to help, then Cao Mengde could only take refuge in him sincerely, not just in name.

Even Cao Mengde had to go to Luoyang himself.When Cao Mengde arrived in Luoyang, Li Xiang wanted to take the Cao family's foundation into his own hands, what difficulty would there be?
"I've heard that Mr. Cao is a capable minister in governing the world. If Mr. Cao comes in person, Your Majesty, I am willing to give up the position of Minister of the Ministry of Officials!" Wang Meng also echoed.

During the day of the six official system introduced by Li Xiang, the position of the prime minister has been abolished, but the power of the prime minister has been divided into the hands of the six ministers, and the power of the prime minister is divided into six.In a sense, the six ministers can all be regarded as prime ministers.

As the head of the six ministries, the Ministry of Officials can be regarded as the position of the prime minister, although this prime minister is slightly different from the previous prime minister.

However, if Cao Mengde really dared to come to Luoyang, what if he was given the position of Minister?The other party is also worth the price!

After all, if Cao Mengde really dared to come to Luoyang, then his Cao family foundation would have to be his dowry.

Facing the cooperation of Li Xiang and Wang Meng, the monarch and his ministers, Xun You's expression became even more ugly.He can also see that this pair of monarchs and ministers are clearly the masters who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles. If they don't really give some practical benefits, then their business is a complete failure.

Helpless, Xun You gave their bottom line again, ceding the land, and one ceding was the territory of two counties.This is not the territory of the two counties, but also Cao Cao's heart, after all, he only has a small territory in total, so he can't stand it!

According to this cutting method, if he does it two more times, he will become a bald commander!However, compared with the current crisis, when it's time to grit your teeth, you can only grit your teeth.

However, even though Cao Cao and the others had been pushed to the bottom line, Li Xiang still refused to let go.

What are you kidding?Although the territory is indeed good, what is the use of Cao Cao's territory?There is no danger to defend the territory of the Central Plains. If you really want to come over, wouldn't it be equivalent to giving up a weakness to the princes?
If you wait until after Zhu Yuanzhang is settled, the territory of these two counties is naturally desirable to Li Xiang, and it will save him a lot of trouble.But before he won the southern land, the territory of these two counties was just tasteless to him.

Moreover, compared to the territory of these two counties, what Li Xiang is really interested in is the support of Cao Cao's entire forces.

If this was put in the past, it would naturally be some idiot's dream.

But if it is placed in the current situation, it is not impossible!
