Chapter 62

Cao Cao is very good at life.

Although Cao Cao looks a little ugly, his speech and demeanor give people a very comfortable feeling. Different from the sense of security that Lu Bu brings to people, Cao Cao's words are humorous and seem easy to get along with. You are the only protagonist in Cao Cao's eyes. The feeling of being valued often makes people want to be close to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's welcome banquet for Lu Bu was very grand, as if he was entertaining old friends for many years. Not only Cao Jun, Wen and Wu were present, but Cao Cao's concubine, Mrs. Bian, was even invited to perform a dance in person.This is no longer the norm for ordinary hospitality.Although women in the late Han Dynasty were not as imprisoned as they were in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, they would not easily meet men.Often only when the relationship between two people has reached a certain level, will they invite their family members to meet each other. It is for the good of the whole family to make their wives and concubines meet each other.

But Cao Cao and Lu Bu, although because of the death of Dong Zhuo, the previous grievances have no carrier, but after all, Cao Cao almost died at the hands of Lu Bu several times. Just by looking at the attitude of Cao Junwen's ministers and generals looking at Lu Bu, one can know a thing or two, that is called A person who hates to the bone is called a person who wants to eat his flesh, but Cao Cao seems to have disappeared, drinking with Lu Bu with a cup, a look of heart-to-heart, really makes Qin Xu admire Boss Cao's mind very much.

"Fengxian's force is unparalleled in the world. Our generation of warriors is really hard to come by. We really admire it. On behalf of Yanzhou's civil and military forces, we will respect and worship the ancestors. You will drink well!" Cao Cao said beautifully. Lu Bu was happy to hear it, and his face The complacent look made the faces of Cao Cao's civil servants even colder.

"Emperor Bumeng attaches great importance to him. He guards Qingzhou. He borrows the way from your land. I am grateful for Brother Mengde's hospitality. I am really grateful. I will use this wine to repay my lords!" Lu Bu is not a fool. Civil and military people share the same hatred, so they don't understand Cao Cao's method of using Lu Bu's reputation to improve his cohesion. Although he doesn't dislike Cao Cao's move, he is also unhappy when so many people look at him with weird eyes.

Cao Cao glanced carefully at his family's civil servants, his face remained calm, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up. When he saw Zhang Liao behind Lu Bu, his eyes lit up.

I have to say that Cao Cao can achieve great things. There is nothing to say in terms of popularity. Saved Cao Cao's life.

"Who will stand behind Feng Xian?" Cao Cao pretended to be overwhelmed with alcohol, half-prostrated on the desk, pointed at Zhang Liao and asked, "Cao Cao is really a general!"

"This person is the commander of Xiaoqi Battalion under Bu's command, Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan, Wen Yuan, salute General Cao!" Lu Bu said, pointing at Zhang Liao, not sure if he was really drunk.

"No!" Zhang Liao remained calm, unmoved by the atmosphere of the banquet, saluted Cao Cao in a regular manner, and stood behind Cao Cao again.

A gleam flashed in Cao Cao's eyes, and he said with a smile, "Isn't General Wen Yuan the fan Kuai of Marquis Lu Wen? Do you dare to drink like Marquis Wu?"

"Thank you General Cao, the last general wears armor and does not drink alcohol!" Zhang Liao replied coldly.

Cao Cao didn't say anything, but a burly man who was sitting at the bottom of Cao Cao stood up fiercely, and said angrily, "My lord is such a character, I think it's admirable to give you wine and food, but you are so rude, why don't you just toast and refuse to eat?" , do you want to drink fine wine?"

"Yuan Rang! You're drunk! Hou Wen, laugh at me!" Before Lu Bu could speak, Cao Cao hurriedly smoothed things over, pretending to angrily scold the handsome young man with two eyes, Xiahou Dun.

However, in Qin Xu's view, the sincerity of Cao Cao's words is really open to question.

"Wen Yuan, have a drink! Don't spoil General Cao's drinking!" Lu Bu instructed Zhang Liao with a slight smile on his handsome face when he saw Cao Cao talking.

"No!" Without further ado, Zhang Liao picked up the wine jar and drank heavily, which made Cao Cao's face show a bit of embarrassment.

"Who is sitting behind Wen Hou? Such a good-looking person!" Cao Cao changed the subject and focused on Qin Xu.

"This is the master book of our army, Qin Xu!" Lu Bu replied indifferently.

The only people sitting on Lu Bu's side in the banquet were Lu Bu and Qin Xu.Seeing Cao Cao's question, Qin Xu stood up and saluted Cao Cao and Cao Jun in a dignified way.

Cao Jun Wenwu saw that Qin Xu's face was immature, and he was only sixteen or seventeen years old. Except for the head of Cao Jun's civil servants whose face remained unchanged, the rest of them, regardless of whether they were civil or military, showed a look of contempt.

Especially generals, including Cao Ren, who already knew Qin Xu's status in Lu Bu's army, was no exception. Any fool could see that these people contempt for Lu Bu because of Qin Xu's age, which made Qin Xu feel amused. The gang would never have thought that the "murderer" who killed Cao Hong they were looking for was sitting in front of them at this moment, bearing their contempt.

"It turns out to be Master Qin, Cao Cao was rude." Cao Cao did not focus on Qin Xu's age like a general under his command, but instead nodded in a half-truth and half-fake salute, without any truth.He deserves to be called a traitor by later generations, although at this time Lao Cao still wanted to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, otherwise he would not be "willing" to give Lu Bu an excuse to go to Qingzhou.

"Master Qin is young and talented, so he deserves to be reused. He will definitely be a pillar of my man in the future. Let's wait and see what Master Qin's achievements will be in the future!" When Cao Jun's civil and military were all contemptuous, only he didn't show any strange expressions before The young scholar stood up and said something for Qin Xu.

"This person is my subordinate Sima, Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo!" Cao Cao said with a smile on his face.

Xun Yu?Qin Xu looked at the handsome and elegant young man in front of him, and felt that the description in the history books was hard to describe Xun Yu's demeanor. He exchanged salutes with Xun Yu, but in his heart he was laying the foundation for Cao Cao's hegemony. Cao Cao's ideas were contrary, and Liu Xiangxun, who died in depression in the end, felt sorry for him.

It's not that Qin Xu never thought about taking Xun Yu and a series of ultimate counselors that Cao Cao relied on into Lv Bu's use, but the master Qin from later generations knew more clearly that it was absolutely impossible, at least when Lv Bu didn't have absolute strength Before, there was no play at all.

What Xun Yu represents is a family loyal to the royal family. Although he has a bad reputation among the family, Cao Cao, who still belongs to the gentry, may still have the possibility of cooperating. Not eye-catching.So this thought only flashed in Qin Xu's mind, leaving only pity and regret.

"Meng De! Bu passed by Yanzhou this time, and received such hospitality, and Bu was really ashamed. I specially presented a cart full of gold, silver, pearls, jade and other vulgar objects for Meng De's military resources. Let's talk about Bu's heart." The banquet was held. Halfway, Lu Bu finally remembered that he had to pay tolls for borrowing roads these days. He waved his big hand and signaled the soldiers of the trapped camp standing outside the door to bring up a huge box. Worth tens of millions of dollars.

"This prodigal...my lord!" Qin Xu almost cursed out, really wanting to open Lu Bu's brain to see if the brain is really as big as a walnut as designed by a certain game company, do you understand the reason why wealth is not revealed?I didn't see the light in the eyes of Cao Jun's civil and military personnel except for a few people, and they were almost as good as that.

Lu Bu seemed to have noticed Qin Xu's gaze, and turned his head to look at Qin Xu. There was a hint of playfulness in his drunken eyes, which made Qin Xu understand immediately.

Who said Lu Bu has no brains?Who said Lu Bu was just a warrior?Lu Bu's peerless martial arts are the first, and he has become Boss Lu's best protection.This box of gold, jade and jewelry immediately filled the ground with the civil and martial arts under Cao Jun's command just now, don't you disdain it?We have money!Aren't you contemptuous?We have money!
Is the wealth revealed?That also depends on who reveals it!Lu Bu has a great reputation, even if you move your mind, you have to weigh whether you have the courage to rob and steal it, and whether you have the life to spend it.

The private confrontation between Boss Lu and Boss Cao has so far ended with one win and one loss, a tie!

"It is rumored in the world that General Lu's army plundered Yuan Benchu's Ye City. Could it be that what General Lu dedicated to Cao Gong is..." A civil servant who was sitting beside Cao Jun, but who obviously did not belong to Cao Cao's direct line, suddenly asked.

Not only Lu Bu, but even Cao Cao's face changed a lot after hearing these words. Facts are one thing, but saying it is another thing. He snorted coldly and said, "Meng Zhuo, how could you, under Chenliu, have such ignorant people? Why do you want to impose the Heishan bandits on General Lu? You haven't made it clear at the beginning. If you know the ups and downs, don't back down!"

Although Cao Cao's words seem to be excuses for Lv Bu, in Qin Xu's view, no matter how they sound, they seem to be emphasizing that because Yuan Shao is afraid of spreading the word and ruining his reputation, he forcibly put Lv Bu's "merits" on the black bandits. On the body, Lu Bu is compared with the black mountain bandits.

"Fengxian, don't be upset. This man is old and doesn't know heroes. Fengxian must not be as knowledgeable as him." The one who satirized Lu Bu was Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu, who was an official. Zhang Miao was very embarrassed and kept explaining to Lu Bu. road.

"General Lu is the world champion, but he seldom cultivates virtues. His actions will inevitably be misunderstood by others. In the future, we must be cautious in regulating Qingzhou!" Zhang Miao's fire had just extinguished, and Cao Jun's scribes suddenly stood up. A strong man, more than eight feet tall, with a thick beard, although his words were not good, but it made people feel very majestic.

What's the situation?
Talking about Lu Bu?

Lu Bu is a general!

The generals of the old Cao family were surprisingly silent. Why are they all literati in their early years, preaching like teaching children?How can there be no counselors on the side of bullying Lu Bu?

"What this big brother said is wrong!" Seeing that Boss Lu's face had turned livid, Cao Cao pretended to be helpless and sat on the mountain watching the tiger fight. Zhang Liao's knuckles on the handle of the knife turned white.Qin Xu suddenly felt an urge to complain about Lu Bu, and suddenly said.
