In the conference hall.
Cao Cao gathered his subordinates.
Emperor Xian had already arrived.
Naturally, it was time for him to show his power.
After Cao Cao had settled the matter, he set up a banquet in the back hall and gathered a group of advisers to discuss it together."Liu Bei is stationed in Xuzhou and is in charge of the affairs of the state. Recently, Lu Bu has defected to him after being defeated. Liu Bei is stationed in Xiaopei. If the two of them work together to attack, it will be a disaster. Do you have any good ideas?"
This was Cao Cao's greatest worry.
If these two people joined forces, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Although Guo Jia and Xun Yu had made their own suggestions.
But he still decided to brainstorm.
Xu Chu said,"I am willing to lend you fifty thousand men to behead Liu Bei and Lu Bu and present them to the Prime Minister.”
It's about what happened last time.
Xu Chu had always remembered clearly how he had failed.
He had been brooding over the time when White Night had run away.
Even Liu Bei was jealous of him.
If not for Liu Bei.
Could that White Night have escaped that day?
Cao Cao did not say anything. He just turned to Xun Yu.
"General, you are brave, but you don't know how to use strategy. Now that Xudu has just been pacified, we can't use troops rashly.
Xun Yu had a plan called the two tigers competing for food.
Although Liu Bei is now in charge of Xuzhou, he has not received the imperial edict.
You can petition the emperor to grant Liu Bei the title of herdsman of Xuzhou, and then secretly write a letter to him, instructing him to kill Lu Bu.
If it succeeds, Liu Bei will gradually be able to plot without the help of brave men.
If things don't work out, Lu Bu will kill Liu Bei. This is the plan of two tigers competing for food.”
Xun Yu's plan was vicious.
Now, this secret edict was sent over.
At that time, one of them would definitely be harmed by this plan.
Cao Cao listened to Liu Bei's words and immediately petitioned for an edict. He sent an envoy to Xuzhou with the edict and granted Liu Bei the title of General of the Eastern Expedition, Marquis of Yicheng Pavilion, and concurrently the herdsman of Xuzhou.
And a secret letter.
Xu Prefecture.
When Liu Bei heard that Emperor Wu had come to Xudu, he was about to send a memorial to congratulate him.
Suddenly he heard that the messenger had arrived. He went out of the city to meet the messenger and entered the county. After he bowed to the messenger and accepted his kindness, he gave a banquet to wait for the messenger.
After the messenger finished eating, he did not say much and directly told her the purpose of this trip."Marquis, you received this order because of General Cao's recommendation to the Emperor.”
"Thank you so much!"
Liu Bei's eyes flashed, and then he subconsciously looked at White Night.
He had a bad premonition.
Liu Bei thanked him, and the messenger took out a private letter and handed it to Liu Bei.
After reading the secret edict, Liu Bei's heart sank. It was just as he had thought.
"This matter can still be discussed."
After the banquet, he went to the post station to rest.
Liu Bei quickly pulled White Night along and began to discuss.
This secret edict stated that he was to kill Lu Bu.
"This Cao Meng De is afraid that I will conspire with Lu Bu to attack him, so he used this plan to make the two of us annex each other while the other side takes advantage of it.”
Liu Bei was not a fool. How could he not know that this was Cao Cao's plan?
He didn't want to ally with Lu Bu.
"Then should we make a move?"
If it was in the past, Zhang Fei would not even ask and would have directly attacked.
After all, he wouldn't show any mercy to someone like Lu Bu.
But recently, they had a new plan.
"Advisor Jun, what do you think?"
Liu Bei did not say anything more and left the decision to Bai Ye.
He wanted to know what White Night was planning to do.
He wanted to deal with Lu Bu.
Or did he not listen to Cao Cao?
"Could it be that my lord hasn't thought of how to deal with Lu Bu in the past few days?”
Bai Ye asked Liu Bei with a smile.
These few days, he felt that Liu Bei should have thought it through very clearly.
Now, she actually came to ask him. It was really strange.
"Looks like I really can't hide it from you, Military Advisor. How about this? I'll go and call everyone over!”
Liu Bei chuckled. It seemed like Bai Ye had already read his mind.
It seemed like there was no need to hide anything.
As he spoke, Liu Bei ordered his men to gather all of Lu Bu's men.
Let's lay our cards on the table!
Now was the best opportunity.
In the conference hall.
Lu Bujun and Liu Bei's men sat separately.
" Brother, what happened today?!"
A strange look flashed in Lu Bu's eyes as he called all of his men over.
Could it be that they were discussing something important?
Liu Bei did not say anything, but only asked someone to pass the secret edict that Cao Cao had given him to Lu Bu.
Taking the edict, Lu Bu read the contents and his pupils constricted.
this
He did not expect that Cao Cao had asked Liu Bei to assassinate him.
And the most ridiculous thing was that Liu Bei actually took it out for him to see.
It was really ridiculous that his mother opened the door for him.
When Lu Bu had finished reading it, he wept and said,"This is Cao Cao's plan to make us fall out.”
Everyone saw Lu Bu's expression.
He was surprised.
They each took the secret edict from Lu Bu's hands.
They were also shocked.
"This…"
Everyone held it in their hands and looked at it. They could not believe what they saw.
Cao Cao actually wanted Liu Bei to kill Lu Bu.
this
"Brother, don't worry. Liu Bei swears that he won't do such an unjust thing.”
Liu Bei said slowly.
Since he had brought Lu Bu over.
Of course, he wouldn't kill Lu Bu.
