The Invincible Summoning of the Three Kingdoms

Cao Cao took the invitation, glanced quickly, and fell into deep thought.

"Zhi Cai, tell me, what does Liu Rui mean?" Cao Cao handed the invitation card in his hand to Xi Zhicai, who read it twice, but also looked puzzled.

"The Son of Heaven is holding a banquet, Liu Rui is going to reward him for his meritorious deeds!" Xi Zhicai whispered, "But now that Liu Rui has completely controlled the situation in Chang'an, why did he still come to us?"

"Extremely!" Cao Cao nodded, "Liu Haosheng is brave, resourceful, and ambitious. I heard that in just one day, he was coaxed to follow his plans."

"The lord must not go." Xi Zhicai cupped his hands and said loudly, "The overall situation of Chang'an has been decided. If the lord goes here, I am afraid it will be no different from the Hongmen Banquet."

"Yes! Then Liu Rui is not Xiang Yu. How could he miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?" Cao Cao nodded, "If you go to reply to Liu Rui's messenger, say that I am seriously ill and helpless."

Xi Zhicai nodded and said yes, and then hurriedly replied to Liu Rui's messenger.

Liu Rui received Cao Cao's reply, and knew that Cao Mengde was suspicious by nature, so he no longer bothered him, and devoted himself to arranging the Emperor's Banquet.

After Chang'an was occupied by Dong Zhuo, it has been ravaged for a long time. In the past few days, Liu Rui opened the warehouse to put food and reduced taxes. In a short period of time, Chang'an was restored to prosperity.

This time, the banquet of the Son of Heaven caused a sensation throughout Chang'an.

Hundreds of civil and military officials took their seats one after another. Emperor Xian Liu Xie sat on the main seat. Seeing everyone was laughing and laughing, he couldn't help but feel happy.

"Uncle! Please!" Liu Xie raised his glass and gestured towards Liu Rui.

Liu Rui, who was sitting at the front of Baiguan, also raised his wine glass and laughed loudly: "Let's have a drink together!"

The hundreds of officials and the generals below all promised with a bang, and for a while, the scene was very hot.

The more Liu Xie looked, the happier he became. He was in the palace these few days, and he didn't worry about eating, drinking, and having fun, and he handed over all those annoying things, big and small, to Liu Rui.

At first, Liu Rui kept resigning, and it was not until Liu Xieqiang gave it to Liu Rui that Liu Rui took over with a bitter face.

In the past few days, Liu Xie and Tian Boguang sneaked out of the palace every day and played everywhere. They also felt that Chang'an was becoming more and more prosperous, and felt that Liu Rui was capable.

At the banquet, everyone pushed the cups for a change. It was so lively that the laughter and laughter were clearly audible even outside the palace.

Cao Cao was in the camp, and when he heard reports from his subordinates, he felt a little itchy.

He and Liu Rui shared cavalry and pretended to have a decisive battle at Guandu, but both sides sent troops to attack Dong Zhuo one after another.It was just that Dong Zhuo sent Huangfu Song to block Cao Cao in Wancheng.If it wasn't for the fact that Lü Bu killed Dong Zhuo and Li Jue and Guo Si led his troops to attack Chang'an, I'm afraid Cao Cao's troops would still not know where they were blocked!Xiaoshuowa novel network www.xiaoshuowa.com

"Zhicai, the more I think about it, the more uncomfortable I feel!" Cao Cao sighed and looked at the city of Chang'an, "Is this Liu Haosheng who sincerely invited me to Chang'an to receive the award?"

"This... If you go, my lord, if Liu Rui has murderous intentions, it will be in danger!" Xi Zhicai said quickly with a serious face.

"No! It won't work, I have to try Liu Haosheng's attitude." Cao Cao stood up and smiled, "However, we don't need to enter Chang'an, we can try Liu Haosheng and see if he dares to come out. "

Not long after, Liu Rui heard a report from his men, saying that Cao Cao was outside Chang'an and asked him to go out.

Before Liu Rui could respond, he heard Liu Xie's curious voice.

"Uncle, but what's the matter?" Liu Xiezheng whispered to Tian Boguang next to him, but when he saw Liu Rui listening to his subordinate's report, he couldn't help but be a little curious.

"Report to the emperor, that Cao Mengde is outside the city, saying that the offer is at the end of the day." Liu Rui smiled.

"Humph! This Cao Mengde, I have a big banquet, he pretended to be sick, but I thought he was a loyal minister and a brave general!" Liu Xie said angrily, he just got out of the sea of ​​misery, but Cao Cao is so disrespectful, how can he not be angry.

Later, Liu Xie was a little worried and said: "Uncle Huang, don't go, then Cao Cao must have a ghost, who knows if he has used some tricks!"

Liu Rui shook his head and said, "The last general is not afraid, and just went to see what medicine he sold in Cao Mengde's gourd."

Liu Xie nodded and said a few more words before Liu Rui left.

After leaving the palace, his subordinates had already brought the war horse, Liu Rui walked across the horse, and after a while, he left the city gate.

"Brother Meng De, long time no see!" Liu Rui laughed.

"Brother Haosheng is really brave!" Cao Cao praised, and then led Liu Rui to the pavilion next to him.

Neither of them took their subordinates, only a dozen of their personal guards.

As soon as he was seated, Cao Cao sighed: "Brother Haosheng is not being kind! You clearly had a great victory in Chang'an, and you deliberately let me in... When I was exhausted from beating Lv Bu, Li Jue and Guo Si, you attacked Chang'an again. Take it in one fell swoop."

This sentence, in front of Liu Rui, described Liu Rui as a liar and a thief.

How could Liu Rui not hear it? He also smiled and said, "Soldiers are tricky. If Brother Meng De broke Chang'an at that time, there would be nothing to do with me, Liu Rui..."

Cao Cao laughed loudly and pointed at Liu Rui, "You bastard, are you laughing at my incompetence?"

"How dare you!" Liu Rui smiled and shook his head, "But I have to thank Brother Meng De, otherwise I would not have succeeded so easily in attacking Chang'an that night!"

"You!" Cao Cao shook his head with a wry smile, and he couldn't help but sighed: "I, Cao Cao, are convinced, but Hao Sheng, you don't want to be cheap and be good!"

"Hahaha!" Liu Rui laughed, looked up at Cao Cao again, and said, "I don't know what Brother Meng De is going to do next."

"What are you planning or not planning? You and I are both under the emperor's office. In the future, I will ask Brother Haosheng to take care of me." Cao Cao smiled. , , .

316: Cao Cao Withdrawal

"Oh? That brother Meng De is going to meet the emperor?" Liu Rui narrowed his eyes. If Cao Cao dared to enter the city and seize power, he would have to get rid of it to avoid future troubles.

"Of course, the day before yesterday, I was bedridden because of the cold. I didn't expect that I would suddenly feel better today." Cao Cao stared into Liu Rui's eyes and smiled.

"Haha, it is a blessing to be able to serve as an official in the same dynasty as Brother Meng De." Liu Rui was not afraid at all, and looked directly at Cao Cao, but now he was a little unsure of what Cao Cao meant.

"Brother Haosheng, humble yourself! Well, it's getting late, I'll go back to clean up, and then go to see the emperor." Cao Cao shook his head and smiled, but he stopped looking at Liu Rui, and just put his eyes on the distant city of Chang'an. On, "It's a pity! It's a pity!"

After speaking, without waiting for Liu Rui to speak, he suddenly stood up and said solemnly, "Brother Haosheng, let's see you in court another day!"

Liu Rui did not move, quietly watching Cao Cao leave.
