Xu You frowned, met the old fried dough stick!

Cao Cao's army has been unable to uncover the pot, and Xin Pi has grasped this point, about Gong Jin!

This matter will definitely arouse Cao Cao's curiosity and attention, how dare Xu You not report it?

Xu You lost the first battle.

On the way from Luoyang to Chang'an, Xu You kept insinuating, but it was a pity that Simpi kept silent, making Xu You complain endlessly.

Sure enough, after Cao Cao got the news, he attached great importance to it, and wished he could summon Simpi directly.

However, he can't do this, it will expose his weakness.

Therefore, even though Simpi had arrived in Chang'an, Cao Cao still delayed for three days.

During this period, Xu You tried to inquire again, but failed.

Going too far, Cao Cao had no choice but to meet Simpi.

"My lord, Prime Minister!" Simpi said respectfully.

"Excuse me." Cao Cao said calmly.

"My lord, I heard that the prime minister has no flesh in order to make up enough money for friendship, and I am very worried about the prime minister's health. So this time, I will send you here to negotiate with the prime minister about the tribute." Simpi said.

In order to lead by example, Cao Cao was indeed a vegetarian.But in front of the messenger, wouldn't it be too embarrassing?

So, he didn't pick up the topic and said:

"Dongyang Hou has a heart, he is indeed my brother."

Since we are brothers, we can't ask too much, right?

"The lord said that Chang'an is too far away from Yangzhou, even if there is meat in his bowl, he can't give it to the prime minister." Simpi said.

Cao Cao's heart skipped a beat, always feeling that something bad happened.

"Xu County is much closer to Yangzhou. It is not only the southeast gateway of Luoyang, but also has existed as a feudal state since the Western Zhou Dynasty. The people have innate thoughts of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism." Simpi said.

"From an economic and cultural point of view, Xu County is the place where Yingchuan County has the most densely aristocratic families and the most developed economy..."

Xin Pi was eloquent, telling about the advantages of Xu County.

"What does the messenger mean?" Cao Cao asked.

"What does the Prime Minister think of Yingchuan County?" Simpi asked.

Cao Cao frowned, but still answered truthfully: "Outstanding people."

After all, I have many Yingchuan talents under my command.

"What does this have to do with Gong Jin?" Cao Cao asked.

Xin Pi smiled and said, "It's a big deal, Your Excellency. If you move the capital to Xu County, my lord will exempt you from the friendship fund."

In private, Simpi can shout tribute, but in formal occasions, he absolutely dare not.

Because the imperial court is eligible to receive tribute!

If Xin Pi slipped his mouth, it would be disrespectful, and if Cao Cao caught him, he would lose a layer of skin if he didn't die.

However, Cao Cao still couldn't help being furious.

Move the capital to Xu County?

Isn't this request too much?

Do I, Cao Mengde, lose face?

Bully me Cao Mengde doesn't understand geography?

Where is Xu County?

In Cao Cao's mind, it was clear that it was an absolutely dangerous place.

Xu County is right under Dongyang Hou's nose!

Cao Cao was so angry that he was half dead, but he had to maintain his demeanor.

"Let's discuss this matter!"

After saying this, Cao Cao waved his sleeves and left.

As soon as he arrived at the study, Cao Cao began to smash things.

"The Marquis of Dongyang is deceiving people too much! He is deceiving people too much!"

Sima Lang was trembling at the side, not daring to speak, and could only wait for Cao Cao to calm down.

Chapter six hundred and ninetieth fight for interests

When there was nothing to smash in his hands, Cao Cao sat down and asked:

"How to deal with it?"

Dongyang Hou wins!

If Cao Cao stood up at this time, wouldn't the previous grandson pretend for nothing?
