Chapter 194 Liu Bei and Guan Yu to Xu Chang

Guo Jia secretly gave Xun Yu a thumbs up to show her admiration. This small action also explained to Xun Yu that Xun Yu's ideas were almost the same as Guo Jia's. Others nodded one after another to agree with Xun Yu's plan to "dive the snake out of the hole".

All the counselors smiled happily, and as the generals who rushed into the battle, even if they relied on them, in the face of the world's first fierce generals Lv Bu, Dianwei Daxiahou and other super fierce generals, they are still not sure: just as people have the difference between height and strength, the situation between super fierce generals is the same. All the innate super generals of Cao Jun have never fought with Lv Bu, but they have heard of the experience of Liu Guanzhang, the only one who survived under Lv Bu: having fought with Lv Bu is like being in a nightmare. He can't help it. When he wakes up, he is either dead or alive...

Cao Cao seemed to feel the thoughts of Dian Wei and Da Xiahou. He looked up and smiled at them, looking confident. Seeing this, Dian Wei and Da Xiahou nod to Cao Cao to show their full confidence.

Then, everyone exchanged their views on the future in a relaxed and casual atmosphere. It was not until late at night that everyone left the secret room and returned to their official residences.

The next day, Guo Jia slept until he woke up naturally and finished washing up. In the bright sunshine and the warm morning wind, he practiced the five birds play twenty times. The five-bird play, as the name implies, is composed of imitating the movements of five animals: the tiger's forelimbs - fast, the deer's head and neck - elegance, the bear's standing up - lifting weights as light, the ape's toes jump - leap, the bird's wings and fly - dexterity, etc. It can be seen how important the Five Birds Opera is to shape the body and cultivate temperament, hundreds of years earlier than the yoga and Tai Chi in later generations.

Five-fowl play, each specific imitation of the animal's posture and action, has different health effects on the human body: bear play, thick and steady, bulky and light spirit, its effect is to strengthen the function of the spleen and stomach, enhance physical strength; crane play, upright and leisurely, its effect is to enhance lung breathing, adjust qi and blood, and dredge the meridians. ; Tiger play, bright eyes, shaking the head and tail, showing a powerful form in the press, to be strong and powerful, soft in the strong, strong and soft, its effect is to fill the lean marrow, strengthen the waist and strengthen the kidney; deer play, the mind must be calm and loose, posture stretch, its effect is to stretch the muscles and bones; ape play is to highlight the mountains and jumps, agile and move. Its effect is to enhance the flexibility of the limbs.

After practicing the five birds opera, Guo Jia returned to the piano room. At this time, his beloved wife Cui'er was already waiting for him in the piano room. Guo Jia has married Cui'er, but there is no husband and wife between them. Because the intelligent Cui'er felt that she was not ready, she asked Guo Jia to teach her to play the piano and practice calligraphy, and deepen her thoughts and stabilize her mind through piano art and calligraphy, so that she could have subtle communication with the fetus at all times.

Guo Jia has great respect for the concept of excellent birth and child rearing like Cuier. Therefore, once she is free, Guo Jia will personally teach Cuier piano art and calligraphy and painting. Although Cui'er is born with eye disease, Cui'er is intelligent. She makes faster progress than ordinary people!

Near noon, a bodyguard reported to Guo Jia: Mr. Cao, the general of bicycle, invited! Guo Jia was very surprised to hear that: the tens of thousands of troops fighting against Lv Bu in Xuzhou are about to be launched. This should be the busiest time for Cao Gong. Why does he have time to invite himself to the banquet?

Guo Jiahuai was full of puzzlement and rushed to Cao Cao's mansion in a sedan chair. With a cup of tea, Guo Jia and his party arrived at Cao Cao's mansion. Guo Jia raised his body and walked out of the sedan chair and found that the general manager of Cao Cao's mansion did not come to greet him. There was a dilapidated carriage parked at the door of the empty mansion.

Under the protection of the personal bodyguard, Guo Jia quickly walked into the mansion compound. In the front yard of the mansion, Guo Jia glanced and found two horses tied in the stable: one was a red red rabbit horse, and the other was a snow-white and golden Lu horse. Seeing these two Shenjun BMWs, Guo Jia inferred which two distinguished guests Cao Cao was entertaining: it must be Liu Bei, the royal clan, and his second brother Guan Yu. This scene also puzzled Guo Jia: Liu Guan and Zhang have always been inseparable. Where has Zhang Fei, who has a strong temperament, gone?

When Guo Jia walked to the bluestone road leading to the main hall, the general manager, who was over 40 years old, came from the direction of the kitchen with sweat. When he saw Guo Jia, he bowed and said, "Guo Jijiu, because the distinguished guests just came, the little man personally urged the man to prepare enough wine and vegetables in the dining room. I really can't spare myself to greet you. I hope you can forgive me!"

Guo Jia stopped where he was and said gently to the general manager with a smile, "Ha ha, general manager, don't care. Treating distinguished guests is the top priority. What's more, these two distinguished guests are really worth your attention!"

"Oh, how does Guo Jijiu know who the distinguished guest is?" After the general manager asked, he immediately became uneasy: Why did he ask such a childish question to the little prince? What qualifications do you have to consider Lord Guo's wisdom?

Guo Jia did not respond to the general manager in words, but kept smiling and nodding to him, and then, accompanied by a personal bodyguard, went straight to the main hall.

Only when he heard Guo Jia's footsteps, Cao Cao greeted Guo Jia happily on the throne and said, "Guo Jijiu, look who came to Xu Changcheng to visit Ben General..." Since Cao Cao was promoted to a bicycle general by Emperor Xian, Cao Cao did not call himself a state herdsman. He just claimed to be a general and a real general.

Hearing Cao Cao's greeting, Guo Jia walked into the main hall with Fang Bu and said with a smile, "Ha ha, General Cao, Feng Xiao naturally knows who the visiting guest is: the benevolent Uncle Liu and the brave and invincible Guan Yu Guan Yunchang! Just now, Fengxiao saw the Shenjun mounts of the two heroes in Ma Peng!"

There is an unwritten rule on Cao Cao's side: in front of outsiders, people only call Cao Cao's official position, not "Cao Gong". In order to avoid causing the resistance of outsiders and causing a bad influence on Cao Cao. What kind of person can be called a "public"? Only a person with high moral dignity and high ambition can be called a "public". This "public" is equivalent to the "child" in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period! At this time, Cao Cao's reputation did not reach the realm of "public". In contrast, Yuan Shao is called "Yuan Gong" by the benevolent people of the world!

After that, under the introduction of Cao Cao, Guo Jia and Liu Bei and Guan Yu exchanged enthusiastic and sincere greetings face to face. The greetings of such heavyweight figures, even if they meet for the first time, have no impurities: Guo Jia admires Guan Yu's magical martial arts skills and Liu Bei's tenacious and forbearance, while Liu Bei and Guan Yu admire Guo Jia's talent and wisdom.

When Liu Bei and Guan Yu knelt down in their original position, Guo Jia walked to Cao Cao's lower right position with a happy face and knelt down slowly. This important seat will always belong to Guo Jia. Even if Guo Jia leaves Cao Cao more than ten years later, once a banquet is held, this position will be vacant...

When Guo Jia met Liu Bei, he carefully found that Liu Bei's two ladies had slightly red and swollen eyes, and her eyebrows were tight and looked sick. Observing this detail, Guo Jia's consciousness kept changing rapidly: Taoyuan's three inseparable brothers, why is there only the reckless Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide today? Could it be that what happened and conflicts happened after Lv Liu's allied forces captured the city of Gongzhou? ... Based on this clue, combined with Lv Bu's **-desire nature, Guo Jia guessed what happened at that time. Of course, this fact is also in line with Guo Jia's previous prediction: Lv Bu and Liu Bei attacked Gongzhou and forced Cao Cao away, the purpose was not so simple. In this way, Cao Cao's hard-working role is worth it!

At the same time, he feels heartfelt "appreciation" for Lv Bu's actions: This Lv Fengxian is really **. In order to rape -** Liu Bei's two beautiful ladies, he actually took the name of attacking Cao Cao Cao and went around such a big curve. He admires and admires. It's really unprecedented...

Although they were still rivals before, Liu Bei and Cao Cao could still sit leisurely together and talk about wine at this time: the Three Kingdoms era was like this. Even if the two parties here were still opponents of swords and soldiers before, put down their weapons and hostile positions, and everyone is partners and allies. Therefore, Liu Bei's side did not look embarrassed, and Cao Cao's side did not feel angry. It's a good thing to sit down and eat and drink: in troubled times, one more friend is better than one more enemy.

In the whispering conversation, delicious food was served on the table one by one. With the beginning of the banquet, the pleasant and soothing sound of silk bamboo also sounded at the same time. After drinking three dishes and five flavors, Cao Cao raised his glass and said to Liu Bei, "Uncle Liu, Meng De is grateful for your deep understanding and greatness. Welcome to Xuchang!"

"Oh, General Cao, Xuande is ashamed! ..." Liu Bei, who was very emotional, spoke, and clearly visible tears appeared in his eyes. It's just that his words fell, and his subordinate Guan Yu brushed his beard three feet and said with a righteous face, "Brother, we are not wrong! Even if there is a mistake, it is General Cao's fault first. If General Cao did not slaughter the people of Xuzhou City in anger, our three brothers would not be deceived by Lv Bu and attack the city of Gongzhou..."

When Liu Bei heard Guan Yu's unconcealed blunt words, his face suddenly changed: A few days ago, he and Guan Yu led the army to abandon Guzhou City and returned to Xiaopei. On the way, he received information: Lv Bu, who led 10,000 iron cavalry, had defeated Zhang Fei and occupied Xiaopei. The whereabouts of Zhang Fei, who was defeated, was unknown... Later, he heard that Cao Cao had met him. Dedication to Xuchang City. As the uncle of Emperor Xian, he showed his goodwill to Cao Cao as soon as possible. At the same time, he led the army to Xuchang City without invitation. Now in Cao Cao's territory, Guan Yu actually dared to accuse and contradict Cao Cao in person. Liu Bei felt that it was a little inappropriate! After all, Cao Cao is a big man who supports the Liu royal family.

He was about to scold Guan Yu, but Cao Cao looked at him with guilt in his eyes. At the same time, he said with a smile on his face, "Ha ha, what General Guan said is extremely true! Uncle Liu, General Guan, Meng De doesn't want to explain too much about the slaughter. If a person explains his own behavior, he can't explain it for the rest of his life. Meng De just wanted to say: First of all, the slaughter of the city is not entirely out of Meng De's revenge. After all, the culprit Zhang Kai has defected to Yuan Shu in Huainan. Secondly, it's not that Meng De is rampant. Meng De thinks that he can't stabilize the world without extraordinary means in troubled times. At the beginning, when Meng De was a small county magistrate, he killed the powerful uncle of the dynasty... Similarly, Meng De is not afraid of what thousands of people say, because famous people are pedantic, untrue in name and do not know the current affairs; Tucheng, Meng De is not afraid of the stench for ten thousand years, because a city is too old. It is inevitable to rely on the old to sell the old and lack of vitality. The arrogance and rudeness of the residents of Xuzhou City must have heard or experienced it personally... Of course, Meng De will not blame Uncle Liu for leading his troops to occupy the city of Gongzhou. If it were Meng De, Meng De would do the same. For!"

Cao Cao's remarks are in line with reality, and their words and deeds are the same. Although the means seem cruel, Liu Bei and Guan Yu have to be convinced. They took Cao Cao as a mirror and also deeply reflected on themselves: killing? There are no ten thousand or 8,000 people who die under themselves and their subordinates. If the two insist on blaming Cao Cao, there is a suspicion that they are bald and ridicule others for being bald. It's so pretentious... It's tasteless!
