Chapter 47 Cao Yuan's soldiers crossed Nanguan and jointly passed the five levels (14
The streets of Xuchang are already quiet at night, but the study of Cao Cao's mansion is still brightly lit. The four counselors gathered here and were discussing a confidential matter with Cao Cao.
Cao Cao first asked Xun Yu, "Wen Ruo, can Master Guanghua make any changes in Xudu these days?"
Xun Yu shook his head and said, "The mage has only contacted the Dart Bureau recently to deal with the seizure of the weight, and there is no difference. The soldiers and horses under his command are no different.
Li Ru's eyes flashed and said, "In this way, the mage is not uncertain. If he knew that we would have discussed secretly all the way, he would have left Xuchang at this time."
Cheng Yu said, "Since the mage is still unconscious, why doesn't the lord take the opportunity to kill him to put an end to future trouble?"
Xun You said, "Master, you can't! We have discussed this matter all the way. The mage is well-known in the world and respected by the people. If the lord kills him namelessly, I'm afraid the people will complain everywhere. What's more, Jingzhou Liubiao, Xiliang Ma Teng, Yangzhou Sun Ce and Jizhou Liu Bei are all good to the mage. The lord killed the mage and fell with the princes. At that time, the princes will rise up and fight, and the lord will be in danger.
Li Ru said, "At this time, there will be endless troubles after killing. With the example of Liu Bei's learning, the lord must no longer be soft-hearted."
Xun Yu said, "What are Liu Bei's achievements? How can it be compared with a mage? The people don't know that there are many Uncle Liu, but they don't know how many saints there are? The mage beheading Dong Zhuo, killing Li Wei, fighting Yuan Shu, and killing Yuan Shao are all actions to eliminate thieves and harm for the people. It is unkind for the Lord to kill him. The mage once saved the father of the father and helped the lord defeat Yuan Shao. It was unjust for the lord to kill him. If the mage is killed for no reason, the name of the lord's benevolence is forbidden to destroy.
Cao Cao thought about it again and again: "The mage is not ambitious in the barren land of Anjiaozhou, and has helped me achieve things several times. Do you think you can persuade the mage to vote?
Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "If the mage is loyal to the Han Dynasty, it is difficult for the Lord to take it for his own use. That is, the mage has no intention of fighting for hegemony. If he learns the edict one day, I'm afraid he will be the enemy of the lord. The lord still has to preempt it.
Xun Yu and Xun You, two who did not agree with the edict of killing Nan Ye, were also silent. Perhaps Master Nanye did not have the intention to compete with his master Cao Cao, but if Liu Xie issued an edict, it is really hard to say whether Nan Ye will remove Cao for the Han Dynasty.
Xun You said, "Although the mage cannot be killed, the lord can prevent him from being the enemy of the lord. As long as the lord retains the mage as an official in the court, he will send the official back to the state for the time being. After a long time, the generals under the mage were determined to be greedy for power and refused to return power to the mage. At that time, the mage lost his foundation and could no longer be the enemy of the Lord.
Li Ru said, "I see that the mage is full of loyal warriors. What if the officer works wholeheartedly for the mage?"
Xun You said, "The loyalty of the officials is better. The mages are in the court for one day, and the soldiers in Jiaozhou should listen to the order of the Lord for one day. If they dare to rise up to save, the master will be famous for killing the mage!"
Cheng Yu said, "This is a wonderful plan! If the mage resists the decree and does not want to stay in the court, he is as wild as Liu Bei, and the lord can kill him immediately.
Cao Cao used the tricks of the counselors and summoned Nan Ye to enter the court the next day, ordering Liu Xie to declare: "The national teacher has worked hard and made great achievements. In addition to the thief, he was specially awarded the post of the national master to assist the government, and the rest of the generals of Jiaozhou returned to Jiaozhou to help the magistrate govern."
Taifu, Taishi and Taibao are collectively known as the Three Masters of the East Palace. If the honor of the official position is higher than that of the three princes, they have no real power, but only show the false position of favor.
Nan Ye saw that Cao Cao showed the fox tail as Guo Jia expected and did not resist the order. At that time, he received the order to thank him. Cao Cao also rewarded more than 50 beautiful women, attendants and guards of Nanye, called taking care of Nan Ye's living, which was actually meant to be monitored. Nan Ye pretended not to know and accepted everything and thanked Cao Cao.
When Cao Cao saw Nanye's obedientness, a stone in his heart finally landed. He thought that as long as Nan Ye was a hostage in the court, he would lose control of Jiaozhou, but he didn't know that Nan Ye's military command had long been used to him not in Jiaozhou. Even if Nan Ye did not return, he could perform his duties and let the decree pass. This is also the benefit of Nanye deliberately weakening the monarchy.
Although Nanye's plan will not abolish the emperor, it will limit the imperial power to the law and transform the current monarchy dictatorship into a virtual monarchy republic. Let the emperor become a law-abiding spiritual leader, not a dictator who can do whatever he wants. Therefore, Nanye has been delegating power to his command and using an effective and reasonable supervision mechanism to make various departments check and balance each other, forming today's situation in Jiaozhou.
After receiving the order, Nan Ye returned to the house to gather the generals and said, "Cao Mengde has ordered the emperor to keep me as an official in the court. You wait and go back to Jiaozhou first. I have my own way out.
Dian Wei was the first to object: "I won't go! How can there be no one around the mage?"
"I'm not leaving either!" Zhou Cang immediately said. As soon as the two of them opened their mouth, Yang Xiong, Ma Yunqi and Zhang Baiqi also quarreled to stay. Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, Zhang Yan and Gao Shun did not say anything and listened to Nan Ye's instructions.
Nan Ye said, "Today's service of filial piety has been expected for a long time. I also said in advance that you just follow the order and don't have to worry about me."
Dian Wei said angrily, "Cao Cao's kindness is so shameless. What if he secretly harms the mage? If you want to go back to Zilong, Gongming and others, Yuanfu and I can stay to deter Xiaoxiao.
Nan Ye smiled and said, "Hong Fei, don't worry. I have my own guard. Have you forgotten who lives next door? Not to mention that I still have a white body."
Dian Wei remembered that Guan Yu lived next door when he heard Nan Ye. It turned out that Cao Cao arranged Guan Yu's house and Nan Ye's house in one place for the convenience of surveillance. Guan Yu's martial arts are no worse than Dian Wei's, and he has a good relationship with Nan Ye. According to Guan Yu's nature, Nan Ye will never sit idly by when he is in trouble. If the white guard is added, Nan Ye really has nothing to be afraid of.
After persuading Dian Wei, Nanye asked Guo Jia to lead ten generals first, leaving only ten mages and ten female soldiers to take care of their daily life. Cao Cao didn't care when he learned about it. He thought it was reasonable for Nan Ye to leave a few cronies. As long as all the generals left, 20 guards could not turn over any trouble.
Cao Cao treated Nanye like Guan Yu, a small banquet in three days, and a big banquet on five days to attract Nanye. Nan Ye was not idle. Taking advantage of several banquets in Cao Cao's mansion, he opened a lot of star records, mainly Cao Cao's close relatives. Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, Cao Xiu, Xia Hou En and others are among them. Nan Ye also met Yang Xiu, Yang Biao's son, and Sima Yi's eldest brother Sima Lang, but unfortunately he did not see Sima Yi.
Among these people, only Cao Pi 91's politics added a general star to Nan Ye, bringing the total number of general stars to 795, and the rest of them just opened the general star record.
Since Nan Ye stayed in Xuchang, he went to Guan Yu next door to drink and play chess, waiting for the opportunity to escape. On this day, the two were talking in the courtyard and heard the sound of gongs and drums outside the door. At first, the two thought that someone was passing by for a wedding, but they didn't care. However, the sound of gongs and drums outside the door was endless, and gradually the voices were boiling. Obviously, many people gathered in front of the door to discuss.
Guan Yu asked Nan Ye, "But what's the happy thing in the mage's mansion?"
Nan Ye shook his head inexplicably and said, "No! I still think there is something wrong with Yunchang's mansion."
The two looked at each other and saw the curious look in each other's eyes. Now they are all under house arrest by Cao Cao and can't be idle anymore. At this time, there is a lively look in front of the house. How can it be possible not to go out of the house? So Nan Ye was in front, and Guan Yu went out of the house together.
When the two went out, they knew that the people outside the door were neither for Guan Yu nor for Nan Ye, but refused to disperse in front of the door of the mansion on the right side of Guan Yu.
Nan Ye's house is on the left side of Guan Yu, and he doesn't know who lives on the right side of Guan Yu, so he asked Guan Yu, "Does Yun Chang know who the neighbor on the right side is?"
Guan Yu shook his head and said, "I don't know who lives here."
At this time, some onlookers have seen Nanye and Guan Yu leaving the house, and they have seen them give way to the door of the house, so as not to become the national teacher and General Guan.
Nan Ye saluted the people in front of the door: "You don't have to be polite. What happened here? Why is it so lively?"
The surrounding people also know that Master Nanye treats people kindly, and several people living nearby in the crowd have also chatted with Nanye. At this time, when he heard Nan Ye's question, he rushed to talk to Nan Ye.
An old man said, "If you return to China, there is a magic doctor named Hua Tuo. Because a patient was cured in the city a few days ago, I would like to thank the patient for his recovery today.
When Nan Ye heard Hua Tuo's name, his eyes suddenly lit up. He didn't expect that this man was in Xuchang and didn't live far from him. At this time, another young man said, "I heard that the patient came to the magic doctor because he couldn't swallow because of abdominal pain. Hua Shenqi took three liters of garlic juice and poured it down, and the patient actually spit out a snake, two or three feet long. Is it strange?
At this time, another person said, "What is this? I heard that a person has a tumor between his eyebrows, which is itchy. After seeing it, Doctor Hua said: There are flying objects inside. Everyone laughed, and the magic doctor cut it with a knife. There was really a yellow finch flying away, and the sick man was cured.
Another person was bitten by a dog, so he grew two pieces of meat, one pain and one itching, which was unbearable. The magic doctor said: There are ten needles in the painful person and two black and white chess pieces in the itchy one. People don't believe it. Cut it with a knife and respond to his words.
What Nanye listeners said became more and more evil, and they hurriedly stopped. Nanye is not surprised if he spit out the snake before. Because of the poor sanitary conditions in ancient times, parasites often made people sick. Both roundworms and tapeworms are similar to snakes. But if birds can fly out of the human body and grow chess pieces, it is probably rumors. However, it can be seen that Hua Tuo's medical skills are so high that he has been handed down as a god.
Guan Yu also heard the name of Hua Tuo and said to Nan Ye, "I have also heard of this person. It is rumored that this person can not only use acupuncture to treat diseases, but also cut meat and take out foreign bodies from the body. His medical skills are well-known, but he doesn't expect to live here."
Nan Ye thought to himself: There is Zhang Zhongjing, a physician in Jiaozhou, who is short of a famous surgeon. Guan Yu will also need Hua Tuo's efforts to cure the poison in the future. Why don't you take the opportunity to visit him to see if he can attract Hua Tuo? Even if you can't, you should get acquainted with him first. It's more convenient for you and Guan Yu to see a doctor in the future.
Thinking of this, Nan Ye said to Guan Yu, "How about I visit this neighbor later?" Guan Yu nodded as soon as he heard the words.
