Before this, Cao Cao's answers were ambiguous. No matter how much Guo Jia and Cheng Yu tried to persuade him, Cao Cao still retained certain expectations for Liu Bei, hoping to use Liu Bei as his general to manage Runan and stabilize the south.
But Cao Cao's answer today was so affirmative, which made Guo Jia and Cheng Yu feel happy.
Guo Jia couldn't help but raise his fist and said: "Ming Gong is wise."[
In this regard, the rest of the people did not complain. Since then, the forces on Cao Cao's side have reached a brief consensus. Let's not talk about whether to kill Liu Bei, but just send Runan. That is not possible for the time being.
Xun Yu felt regretful because this was a good opportunity to kill Liu Bei. But then, Xun Yu became excited again. Although he did not succeed in killing Liu Bei with a borrowed knife, he at least delayed Liu Bei from going south. As long as Liu Bei was still in Xudu,
You are not afraid of not finding opportunities. On the contrary, if you leave Xudu, you will really be a fish in the sea, and you will never catch it again.
Chen Qun is also a pity. It is a pity that Liu Bei's ability is used. If it can be used in Runan, it will definitely stabilize the south.
Guo Jia and Cheng Yu breathed a sigh of relief and finally stopped it.
Jia Xu and Xun You continued to remain silent, their hearts unruffled and very calm.
Among these people, some want to protect Liu Bei, some want to kill Liu Bei, and some want to protect Liu Bei but cannot kill Liu Bei. From this aspect, Liu Bei is indeed a well-deserved man of the moment.
"Actually, I've been wondering, is this a ploy to kill someone with a borrowed knife?" After a moment of silence, Cao Cao suddenly asked.
This question has been hidden in Cao Cao's mind for a long time. Liu Xie promoted Liu Bei to a higher position and dined for an hour and a half. Did Liu Xie do all these tricks to show him, in order to let him eradicate Liu Bei?
If Liu Bei is eradicated, on the one hand, it will make Liu Xie feel bad. On the other hand, if he kills the virtuous Liu Bei, he will lose his own prestige and have an impact on his entire power.
For Liu Xie, isn't this killing two birds with one stone?
Cao Cao vaguely felt that this was possible, and for this reason, Cao Cao replied that it was impossible for Liu Bei to go south for the time being.
What Cao Cao did was to use people without suspicion and not use people who were suspicious. Regardless of whether it was a plan to kill someone with a knife, it was undeniable that he was suspicious of Liu Bei, which Cao Cao could not tolerate.
Cao Cao's last words made the originally clear situation confusing again.
There is still a chance. As someone who admires Liu Bei very much, Chen Qun's eyes lit up and he immediately raised his fist and said: "Ming Gong, this is very possible. After all, the emperor regards Liu Bei as a thorn in his side."
hateful.
Xun Yu screamed in his heart and immediately reacted. He raised his fist and said, "Ming Gong, this is impossible. After all, Liu Bei's surname is Liu. With Dong Cheng leaving the emperor, the emperor felt insecure, so he thought
He married Liu Bei, who has the same surname and clan. Liu Bei is a careerist and very deceitful. If he takes advantage of the emperor and causes some serious consequences, it will be too late to regret it. It is better to get rid of him as soon as possible."
Cao Cao had such speculation, and Chen Qun was adding fuel to the flames. Xun Yu had to express his stance again and resolutely get rid of Liu Bei.
"There is indeed this danger, but what Wen Ruo said is very reasonable. We have to be on guard against Liu Bei. If we don't kill him, we will put him under house arrest." Guo Jia also had a headache when he saw this, so he said clearly.
If he doesn't kill him, he won't let him go, and he will put Liu Bei under house arrest.[
