Chapter 442
"I hope Zang Xuangao can return smoothly." Seeing Zang Ba leave, Cao Cao sighed secretly.
Soon afterwards, only one person came to the tent, raised his hands to Cao Cao and said: "My lord, in the past few days, many officials in Xudu City have unanimously reprimanded Liu and Wei Ling for the emperor's behavior, and asked him to quickly enter the city to apologize to the emperor. Then he led his troops and left without any official having a different idea..."
"Wang Situ, you have worked hard these few days." Cao Cao said emotionally to the visitor.
The man's name was Wang Lang. He originally fled from the sea after Sun Ce conquered Kuaiji. Later, he heard that Cao Cao was coercing the emperor to command the princes. He thought Cao Cao was the real hero, so he went to Xudu to defect to Cao Cao, and soon fell under Cao Cao's wooing. Among them, he actively planned for Cao Cao's great cause and became a key minister under Cao Cao's command. He was actually supported by Cao Cao all the way to the position of Situ, one of the three princes.
After Liu He arrived, in order to control public opinion, Cao Cao ordered Wang Lang to investigate the words and deeds of all officials. If anyone was found to be disloyal to Cao Cao, he would be arrested immediately.
It is precisely because of this kind of high pressure that most officials in Xudu City followed Cao Cao's words and angrily denounced Liu He's adding troops to the imperial capital. Speech, but also wisely chose to remain silent.
For an absolute direct line like Wang Lang, Cao Cao still has no reservations. He told Wang Lang about Xi Zhicai's suggestion and his secret dispatch of Zang Ba to Chengdu to find Zhuge Liang to help investigate the details of the enemy army, and expressed his expectations. The news of Zang Ba's smooth return was also revealed.
Wang Lang smiled and comforted him and said, "Zang Xuangao is highly skilled in martial arts and has a flexible mind. He is definitely the best candidate to go to Chengdu. Lang believes that he will fulfill his mission. My lord, in fact, regarding the matter of Liu He outside the city, the next official is not sure." I have an idea, why didn't Liu He lead the army to the city, but why didn't he attack Xu Capital City? According to the official, the main reason is that this person cherishes his reputation and doesn't want to lose the name of attacking the imperial capital and the mighty emperor. After all, this is also an excuse for him to raise troops against the lord. If he does the same, he will be unknown. Therefore, it is impossible for him to attack us in the short term. If this is the case, can we persuade him in the name of righteousness? , let him retreat temporarily?"
"Well, Liu He has always been cunning and shrewd. If you want to make him retreat, I'm afraid it can't be done with words, right?" Although Wang Lang is very capable in doing specific things, this idea is really naive. Cao Cao refused with almost no consideration.
However, Wang Lang did not give up, but continued: "My lord, don't rush to refuse, and think about it. What is the excuse for Liu He to go to Xudu this time? What is the real purpose? It is false to raise the flag of righteousness for the emperor. It is true to avenge the father and want to get benefits. If this is the case, then we will do what we like, first rehabilitate Liu Yu, and posthumously grant him the honor, and then grant him the Duke of Qin in the name of the Son of Heaven, and reward him with some property. Now Liu Bei and Sun Quan are competing for Jingzhou, and his Xiangyang and other places are also threatened at the same time, so although Liu He looks very calm, but he is not sure what will happen in his heart, we will give him a step down now, I believe he will Those who know how to use the donkey to get down the slope and lead the army to retreat, in fact, Lang thinks that even if it really doesn't work, we won't lose anything if we try it, and if it succeeds, wouldn't it be a great surprise?"
"What you said makes sense." Cao Cao was a little moved by Wang Lang's words. After thinking for a moment, he said, "If Liu He really retreats, why is it so difficult to designate him as Duke Qin? It's all up to me." In a word, as for the rewards, there is nothing to worry about, anyway, there are plenty in the palace, if that's the case, then please trouble Wang Situ to go to Liu He's camp, if this can be done, you will definitely be rewarded heavily."
At this time Cao Cao even stood up and bowed directly to Wang Lang.
Seeing this, Wang Lang was flattered and quickly returned the gift, and told Cao Cao not to forget to ask the emperor for an edict that canonize Liu He as the Duke of Qin.
Early the next morning, Cao Cao ordered Wang Lang to enter, handed over the emperor's canonized edict to Wang Lang, and personally sent Wang Lang out of the city.
Wang Lang went out of the city and came to Liu He's camp contentedly. He claimed to be the envoy sent by the emperor and asked to see the general Liu He.
When a sergeant went in to report, Liu He was surprised when he heard the news: "Now we have not launched a war on Xudu City, and there should be no shortage of food in Xudu City. Why did the emperor send people here at this time?" What's the purpose? Besides, Xu Capital City has already been tightly controlled by Cao Cao. How could any envoy from the emperor come to see me openly at this time? I think it must be Cao Cao's envoy. Why did he come to see me? Could it be that you want to make peace with me? Huh, the country hates the family feud, how can we just make peace? If it weren't for the lack of troops, I would have rushed into the city and executed the old thief Mingzheng canon, so why would I keep doing this? Waiting outside the city?"
But Liu He still decided to meet, he wanted to see what kind of conspiracy Cao Cao was playing?
After Wang Lang heard about Liu He's reception, a full smile appeared on the corner of his mouth immediately. He believed that with his eloquence and the benefits promised to Liu He, Liu He would definitely agree to withdraw the army, and then he would stand in front of the lord. If you make great contributions, once you achieve supremacy in the future, you will be a minister of the dragon.
"My subordinate, Wang Lang, has met the great general." Seeing that Liu He was nine feet tall, with a jade tree facing the wind, Wang Lang immediately felt that he was more confident today.
"Wang Lang? You are the original Kuaiji prefect and now Situ Wang Lang? I don't know what's important for Wang Situ to see him?" Liu He knew that this person's character was inferior, and although his attributes were fully qualified to be canonized, he didn't have any solicitation. Instead, he looked at the other party calmly and asked.
"It's the official. It turns out that the general has heard of the humble name. This is really an honor for the general. To tell the truth, the general is not the official who came to see the general today, but the official was ordered by the emperor to treat the general. For the canonization, the emperor edict said: "General Liu He has worked hard for many years in battle, wiped out the gangsters, and made great achievements. He is hereby conferred the title of Duke of Qin, and rewarded with a thousand pieces of gold and ten thousand pieces of silk. This is your honor." General, no, Duke Qin , the Son of Heaven remembers Duke Qin's hard work in the war for the country, and specially ennobles and rewards him, this is really a great grace."
Wang Lang handed the edict in his hand to Liu He, and said with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace. From now on, I will work harder to get rid of thieves, to bring peace to the world, and to revive the Han Dynasty." Liu He accepted the edict respectfully, and then thanked the emperor in the direction where he was.
After thanking him, Liu He said to Wang Lang, "I'm sorry for the trouble, Wang Situ, but I'm busy with military affairs, so I don't have time to entertain Wang Situ. I'm really sorry."
Then Liu He casually took out one yield from the thousand yiils of gold that Wang Lang brought, handed it to Wang Lang and said, "A small gift is not a respect, so I hope Wang Situ can accept it with a smile."
