Cao Zhi opened his eyes and stood up, and a figure came out of the tent door. Cao An led Liu Bei, who was wearing a Jinxian crown and a green robe, to step into the tent door.
Cao Zhi immediately put on his signature smile, showing eight teeth, raised the corners of his mouth, and smiled in his eyes. He started to greet him and said with a big smile: "It turns out that County Magistrate Liu is here. What a rare visitor! What a rare visitor!"
quot;
Liu Bei walked up to Cao Zhi in an orderly manner and said respectfully: "The captain sees the cold and Xuande visits early in the morning. How presumptuous!"
Cao Zhi glanced at Cao An, who was standing by, and knew that he might have been neglecting others because he went to bed late and Liu Bei came earlier. During the communication, Cao An saw that others had low official positions.
Cao Zhi thought to himself: "Cao An, this kid, will look down on others even if he becomes an official. You must have made a mistake this time. This is the future monarch of Shu."
Cao Zhi cleared his throat and said to Liu Bei: "There, it's not that Magistrate Liu came early, it's that Cao Zhi went to bed late."
Cao Zhi asked Liu Bei to sit down, then turned to look cold and asked Cao An: "When did County Magistrate Liu come?"
Cao An didn't expect Cao Zhi to ask this question suddenly. He blinked his eyes, feeling a little bored and didn't know how to answer.
Cao Zhi became even more angry when he saw this. He took pictures of several cases and said sternly: "Are you making things difficult for Magistrate Liu at the tent door?"
Cao An was even more stunned when he heard this, and was speechless.
As soon as Cao Zhi saw Cao An's expression, he knew that he had guessed it, so he scolded loudly: "You are getting more and more courageous. You have only been in the official position for a few days, and you are already looking down on others. Please apologize to County Magistrate Liu."
.quot;
Liu Bei had just sat down and before he could say anything, he saw Cao Zhi showing off his military power. He was also panicked and said: "No, no, no." He actually didn't mean that. Who would have thought that Cao Zhi would just listen to
One sentence can deduce Cao An's "catty".
Liu Bei thought that Cao Zhi had a sharp vision. Cao Anxin thought that his second son was so powerful that he could not hide anything from him. In fact, in modern times, this kind of knowledge is nothing. Anyone who has watched the TV series knows that domestic slaves and dogs are very important.
Cao An blushed and apologized to Liu Bei. Liu Bei awkwardly helped Cao An up and blamed himself for talking too much.
After dismissing Cao An, the guests and hosts took their seats again. Liu Bei saw that Cao Zhi had a profound understanding of righteousness and strict discipline. He couldn't help but praise: "Cao Gong, this place is Zhou Yafu's Xiliu Camp back then!"
During the period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty, there was a general named Zhou Yafu who was serious in running the army, with majestic military orders and strict military discipline. He was dedicated to his duties, upright, not afraid of power, and not flattering. Therefore, Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty praised him as a "true general". Zhou Yafu was stationed in Xiliu, so
His army was also called the "Xiliu Camp".
Of course Cao Zhi knew the name of Xiliu Camp, so he laughed and said, "Magnificent Liu praised Cao too much. Cao's small army can't even be compared to Xiliu Camp, but Magistrate Liu's future is limitless."
What Cao Zhi said was meaningless. Not to mention that most people couldn't understand it. Even Liu Bei, who was usually shrewd, changed his expression slightly when he heard this. He couldn't figure out whether Cao Zhi was derogating him or praising him.
Cao Zhi also noticed the mistake in his words and added: "County Magistrate Liu is a true relative of the emperor and has a bright future. The county magistrate visited Cao Zhi early in the morning. He must have something important to do with Cao Zhi, right?"
Liu Bei was slightly hesitant. He also felt Cao Zhi's attention and knew his family background clearly. The princes from all walks of life knew that Liu Bei was a relative of the emperor, but they didn't take it seriously. These days, who has the strength to decide everything?
Regardless of whether you are a relative of the emperor or not, some people, including Gongsun Zan, even use Liu Bei's identity as a relative as a joke. Only he himself knows the origin of Liu Bei's identity as a relative. Most people think that he has the national surname Liu.
Meng Shi. Liu Bei knows that he is not taken seriously and respected now, so Liu Bei usually does not dare to show off his royal status everywhere. He believes that one day he will get the respect and attention he deserves.
Liu Bei did not expect that Cao Zhi would pay so much attention to an inconspicuous county magistrate, which made him feel inexplicably moved. Being taken seriously by others always makes people feel better. It also confirmed yesterday's speculation and the purpose of today's trip.
The originally planned opening remarks were no longer needed, because Cao Zhi was too direct. The ancients were relatively reserved in their speech, and always had to go round and round to get to the point. Besides, what they wanted to inquire about could not be stated directly.
While Liu Bei was thinking about his choice of words, Cao Zhi smiled and said to Liu Bei: "Mr. Liu will not say that when he first met Cao Zhi yesterday, he felt so majestic, talented, and majestic. You were astonished at the first glance."
I really want to make friends with Cao today."
Cao Zhi made Liu Bei dizzy with a spiel. He had thought of several words of praise in it, and Cao Zhi had guessed them all. Alas! Apparently he didn't like this.
Immediately, Liu Bei changed his panicked and stunned expression, and the shrewd light flashed in his eyes again. He stood up and walked to the central hall, gave a first salute to Cao Zhi, smiled and said slowly: "Then Mr. Cao thinks I'm here."
What to do?quot;
Cao Zhi smashed his eyes and said mysteriously: "I know what you want to do?"
Liu Bei didn't show any weakness and replied straightly: "I know you think that, but I definitely don't think that."
Cao Zhi thought this answer was so interesting, and immediately responded: "I didn't think you were thinking that, but I was sure you wanted to do that, and I happened to be thinking that too."
Cao Zhi continued: "Since everyone is thinking about it, it means everyone agrees to that."
When Liu Bei heard what Cao Zhi said, he showed a hint of excitement, but immediately worried: "But that's Dong Zhuo, do you still want it?"
Cao Zhi seemed confident and replied with a smile: "Hahaha... As expected of Liu Bei, no matter who it is, since we are the ones who thought about this, no one can stop us. You think so?"
no?"
Liu Bei did not want to answer Cao Zhi directly, but smiled and nodded lightly. He could not figure out where the young captain in front of him had the confidence to benefit from Dong Zhuo.
The riddle-like conversation between the two made Cao Zhi very happy. Talking to smart people is always very interesting. The exchange made Cao Zhi get to know Liu Bei all over again. Although this man looks like a giant monkey, he reacts very quickly and thinks very well.
Agility is not as rough as it appears, so it is no wonder that he will have great achievements in the future.
Cao Zhi didn't want to waste any more time, so he directly took out the map from his sleeve and spread it on the desk in front of him.
Although Liu Bei was not used to Cao Zhi's thinking rhythm, he also admired his thunderous and popular style. Not everyone could open his heart to someone he had only met once.
Cao Zhi and Liu Bei sat on both sides of the table respectively. Cao Zhi pointed to the map he had read countless times last night and said to Liu Bei: "Brother Xuande, this is Xiwu. Dong Zhuo will move there soon. All the food, grass and treasures are there."
We will also move there, and soon Lu Bu will take action against Dong Zhuo, and then we will have a chance."
