Chapter 959 Chen Haojie Announces Good News?

"General Hussars, for the peace and prosperity of all the people in the world, my nephew will do it first." Cao Ang raised his glass as a respect.

Last night, Ma Chao discussed with the important officials all afternoon, and then invited the ministers of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Rites. When the lights came on, everyone returned to the mansion, and Ma Chao, who was exhausted, stayed directly at the Shangshutai overnight.

This morning, a grand banquet had been arranged in the palace. Ma Chao came late. After he was seated, he saw that the officials and Cao Ang had been waiting for him for a long time.Before Ma Chao could plead guilty, Cao Ang raised his hand to raise his glass, saving Ma Chao from embarrassment.

However, Ma Chao looked a little dazed, and he always felt that something big was about to happen.At this time, seeing Cao Ang opening the topic with this, I couldn't help but think that Cao Ang wanted to use Wanmin as an excuse to join the alliance. I was a little annoyed in my heart, and said in words: "Yes, Fang is in great chaos today, the Han Dynasty is in decline, the universe is hanging upside down, and the bell and tripod are for it." The overthrow of the world, the treacherous ministers are in the way, and the people are in the fire and water. Zixiu said this, it is really a blessing for the people." Qing Yiyi pointed the root of the chaos in the world to Cao Cao for kidnapping the emperor, and raised his glass to Dong Zhao.

Cao Ang is not willing to admit this: "Fang's chaos today is due to the fact that the Han emperor did not cultivate morality, so the yellow scarves rose and the country collapsed. My father was loyal to the Han Dynasty, and the Hussar General helped the building from its collapse, turning the tide from overturning. , the Han Dynasty has the Ma family and the Cao family, and it is the luck of all the people."

In a word, even cutting and flattering, the anger in Ma Chao's mouth was eliminated invisible, and people couldn't help but admire Cao Ang's eloquence.Ma Chao and Cao Ang, after looking at each other, also drank the wine in their glasses.

It's a pity that today's banquet is to put sand in Cao's eyes.After everyone had a drink together, Huangfusong, who was at the head of the table on the right, had a friendship with Tao Qianduo. After putting down the wine glass, he said, "Cao Mengde's heart to help the Han family, I dare not say more. However, Xuzhou was massacred, Surabaya was How can Mr. Cao dare to say that it is the good fortune of all people to do such a thing?"

The matter of Xuzhou will always be a political stain that Cao Cao can't erase, especially during this period, Cao Cao also raped the famous lady Bianrang Meiji, and even beheaded the famous scholar Huan Shao who surrendered himself and begged for mercy in front of the account. What he did was outrageous.Although Cao Ang had a brilliant tongue, it would be tantamount to humiliating himself to say more about it, so he pondered for a while and didn't speak for a long time.

However, after Cao Tai looked around at this time, he already knew that today's banquet was not going to be a good one, so he simply put aside that layer of disguise and said, "My lord must resort to extraordinary means in order to revive the Han Dynasty. Don't say that the Cao family is like this, Huqi The general has been fighting for many years, how many times have he been killed so that the blood flows into rivers and the living beings lament?!"

Yes, Cao Cao's Xuzhou massacre killed more than 10 people.But Ma Chao has fought for these years, and the lives of his subordinates have never exceeded the number of one hundred thousand.Many times, in order to conform to the prestige of the Ma family, Ma Chao ordered the massacre even when the enemy army was completely defeated, and sent tens of thousands of the enemy's heads back to the enemy camp.Compared with Cao Mengde, such means are indeed inferior.

The only thing worth mentioning is that the Ma family started out in the fierce and indifferent land of Western Frontier, where the common people were already psychologically prepared for life and death, and relatively indifferent to human life.After each massacre, the Ma family would soon adopt the new policy of gentleness and tame the rule, which made Ma Chao an invincible belief in the eyes of the people under his rule.But for the enemy, the Ma family is a cruel and frightening crocodile!
But Cao Cao is different. When Cao Cao started his family, he was in the Central Plains where the folk customs were simple and Confucianism flourished. At the beginning, Cao Cao became famous for his campaign against Dong Zhuo, and he always regarded himself as a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.Therefore, it is easy for people to forget the blood debt of Cao Cao's massacre of the Black Mountain Army and the Yellow Turban Army, but once Cao Cao suddenly extended the butcher's knife to the people of Xuzhou, the world would criticize Cao Cao and curse him through the ages!
This is the opinion of the people. The Ma family has always controlled the land very well, and people always have a feeling that the Ma family has merits and demerits.But for Cao Cao, he bit Cao Cao's insane weakness.

Cao Tai picked this up with a word, and the atmosphere in the entire banquet hall suddenly became tense.Many generals of the Ma family looked at Cao Tai covetously, and some famous advisers also wanted to fight back against Cao Tai.And it was at this time that Ma Chao saw Cao Ang raised his wine glass again, apparently wanting to say something to smooth things over.

Unfortunately, Ma Chao would not give Cao Ang this chance. After hearing Cao Tai's words, he stood up angrily and said, "How can Cao Mengde be compared with someone?! I am a dignified uncle of the Han Dynasty. I was ordered by the emperor to guard the old capital. If it weren't for the Ma family I have never received an edict to attack your Cao clan, so I sent troops to Yanzhou one morning to welcome your majesty back to Chang'an!"

"General Hussars, please don't tell anyone in secret. If His Majesty really had an imperial edict, General Hussars probably wouldn't welcome His Majesty back to Chang'an, right?" Cao Tai finally couldn't bear it anymore, and spoke the secret words of the two families in one breath. .

Therefore, when Ma Chao and those foxes heard the words, there were imperceptible smiles on the corners of their mouths: Everyone here knows the true thoughts and positions of the Ma family and the Cao family. The irony is that everyone can't really say it.It doesn't matter how obvious the two families' bullying attitude towards the emperor is, but once it is made public, the nature will be completely different.Sometimes this thin layer of window paper carries indescribable delicacy.

The ancients did not have high technology such as tape recorders, and they could record sounds as evidence.But the ancients had a quality that was more precious than the moderns, and that was the word 'faith'.In this era, unbelief is more despised than disloyalty. Not only will others despise him, but he himself will automatically lose the faith in his heart.

The irony is, has Ma Chao ever said these categorical statements?

Have!
But those who heard Ma Chao say these words have already become corpses or Ma Chao's subordinates.This is where the Ma family is slightly better than the Cao family.Perhaps, Cao Cao did the same. Unfortunately, at this critical moment, Cao Tai was a little too clever, allowing Ma Chao to take the lead in grasping Cao's weakness.

Sure enough, as soon as the words came out, Cao Ang immediately realized that he wanted to reprimand Cao Tai, but he didn't know how to redeem it.But Cao Tai didn't take it seriously at all. Instead, he stood up and raised the topic further: "General Hussars, Zixiu is short of wit, so he is no match for the talents of the Ma family. There is no good banquet today, but the alliance But it's a good alliance, I don't know what the hussar general is like, so he is willing to re-allocate with the Cao family?"

"Okay, okay!" Ma Chao slapped Cao Tai three times and boasted: "As expected, I am the son of a tiger general, with a bold and bold spirit. However, the world says that I show my sharpness, but you don't know, I am very reserved. , you learn from me, the heat is far from enough."

After saying this, Ma Chao stopped looking at the livid Cao Tai, and instead said to Cao Ang: "Young Master Cao, please show me the real letter of alliance. I think the time limit given to you by your father is not long. You plan calmly, after all, after signing the alliance letter, you Cao family still have a lot of things to do."

When Cao Ang heard this, without saying a word, he took out something from his bosom and handed it to Ma Chao.When he turned around and came down, he didn't look at Cao Tai.

But after Ma Chao looked it over, he threw the letter of alliance on the ground casually, and said, "Cao Mengde is really treacherous, he tricked me into Ma Mengqi like that! Nephew, take out the real letter of alliance for the last chance, otherwise, The Ma family will withdraw their troops in an all-round way. Stick to the Hulao and Sishui passes, and never get involved in the chaos in the Kanto at this time!"

Cao Ang was stunned, his expression changed, and he took a last step forward and said, "Yuan Shao's 20 troops have entered Bingzhou, and my father promised to cede the land of one state to the Ma family. Isn't General Hussars satisfied with such a condition?!"

"Bingzhou is originally in the Ma family's pocket. I sent troops to annex Bingzhou. Why do you need Cao's to sell favors?!"

However, just after saying this, Chen Haojie hurried to the banquet hall.And Ma Chao's heart twitched, and his heart beat violently!

Fortunately, Chen Haojie was very discerning today. Seeing Cao Ang and Cao Tai present, he swallowed the words stuck in his throat. After Ben knelt in front of Ma Chao, he coughed continuously.For a long time, under the hopeful eyes of Cao Ang and Cao Tai and the worried eyes of Ma Chao and the officials, Chen Haojie blushed and said, "Congratulations to my lord, congratulations to my lord, Mistress Cai, Mistress Diaochan and Mistress Liu Yue have given birth to their children one after another. , one man and two women, mother and child are safe!"
