It doesn't matter to the common people, it doesn't matter to the aristocratic families.
If the world can be peaceful, that will be enough.
Besides, the Liu Han royal family is getting worse every year. If it is allowed to continue, even if there is another Zhongxing master, it will not be able to revive, and this will be the end.
In fact, Xu Shu's thoughts were similar. He just wanted to pacify the world and didn't care who did it.
"Emperor, this is exactly how you came."
"Didn't Gaozu's Han also take away the kingdom of Qin?"
"It's not surprising that the Han Dynasty was robbed of its kingdom."
"Since everyone is trying to pacify the world, Liu Bei hasn't even completely conquered Jingzhou. It can only be said that he has the voice to pacify but does not have the strength to pacify. Prime Minister Cao already owns half of the Han Dynasty. Isn't this much better than Liu Bei?"
"The princes of the Han Dynasty do not obey anyone. Who is really suffering?"
"Not yet a common people!"
Chen Zhou said slowly.
The more Xu Shu listened to this, the more he frowned.
Chen Zhou said: "Liu Bei doesn't trust you anyway. Leaving him and joining Prime Minister Cao is an opportunity for you. Why not take it?"
Xu Shu remained silent again.
"You think the most important bargaining chip you have is knowing a lot of Liu Bei's secrets, right?"
Chen Zhou continued and continued: "Actually, I can probably guess more or less the secrets you know. For example, Liu Bei's next plan, is he planning to enter Shu? Liu Qi and the others are sick, is it Liu Bei who poisoned them? You even I’ve also thought about joining forces with the Jiangdong Sun family to deal with Prime Minister Cao, right?”
Based on future historical development, he simply predicted what Liu Bei might do in the future.
This prediction made Xu Shu raise his head suddenly.
There is no doubt that Chen Zhou was right.
It was precisely because everything was right that Xu Shu was so shocked.
Seeing the other party's reaction, Chen Zhou smiled with satisfaction, stood up and patted Xu Shu's shoulder, saying seriously: "Think carefully about it yourself!"
After saying that, he was about to leave.
But Cao Ang happened to find it here too.
"Sir, you are indeed here."
After Cao Ang entered the door, he glanced over first. Seeing Xu Shu's tangled expression, he knew that the gentleman had exerted his strength just now, and said again: "Pang Tong, Pang Shiyuan is here."
Did you really find Pang Tong?
Chen Zhou was also surprised when he heard the news.
"Pang Shiyuan? How could he come to Xudu?"
Xu Shu didn't believe Tao.
According to Mr. Shui Jing's plan for them, Pang Tong should seek refuge with Liu Bei, the emperor's uncle of the Han Dynasty.
By assisting Uncle Liu Huang, you can support the Han Dynasty.
Chen Zhou said: "Those who know the current affairs are heroes. Pang Shiyuan knew that Liu Bei had no future, so he came to seek refuge with Prime Minister Cao. Isn't this normal?"
"Sir, let's go take a look."
After saying this, Chen Zhou went out without even looking at Xu Shu.
Cao Ang understood Xu Shu's tangled expression and was thinking, what did the gentleman say to Xu Shu? This will make Xu Shu doubt his life!
"Is it really Pang Tong?"
Walking outside, Chen Zhou asked.
Cao Ang said: "It must be Pang Tong. Cao Gu and the others will not find the wrong person. In addition, when they took Pang Tong out of the city, they saw Guan Yu entering the city. It was obviously for Pang Tong."
This means that the identity can be determined.
If he arrived a little late, Pang Tong might be taken away by Guan Yu.
Arrive at the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After Chen Zhou entered the door, he saw Pang Tong arguing with Guo Jia and others about something. The debate was very lively, and it seemed that he was confirming Pang Tong's identity.
Finally, I saw Pang Tong. He had thick eyebrows, a raised nose, a dark face, short sideburns, and a strange appearance.
That is to say, he is not very good-looking.
Cao Cao was a person who controlled his appearance. For example, Zhang Song, who presented the picture, was ugly and could not be taken seriously by Cao Cao. In the end, he had to go with Liu Bei and help Liu Bei enter Shu. But now he can chat with Pang Tong. , all for the sake of Wolongfengxiao.
However, when Pang Tong came to the enemy camp, he was not timid at all, he was calm and composed, and he was not afraid of the soldiers around him.
"Here comes the ferry."
Cao Cao laughed and said.
"Greetings, my lord."
Chen Zhou entered the door and bowed with his hands in hand.
Cao Cao said: "You're welcome to cross over, please take a seat quickly."
Pang Tong looked at Chen Zhou for a while and asked: "Is this Chen Zhou and Chen Duzhi, the counselor who pacified Guanzhong, helped Prime Minister Cao destroy Yuan Shu, defeated Yuan Shao, and conquered Wuhuan?"
"That's right!"
Chen Zhou nodded and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Feng Chu to know who I am."
Pang Tong said: "I guessed it by coincidence."
Then he drank and said nothing else.
"Crouching dragon and phoenix chick, one of the two can conquer the world."
Chen Zhou looked at Pang Tong provocatively and asked, "Since you know me, you should also know that I sent someone to bring you back. Don't you want to know why I have to get you?"
Cao Cao and the others understood after seeing it that Chen Zhou wanted to help conquer Pang Tong.
"I was quite curious at first, but as soon as you asked, I stopped being curious."
Pang Tong spread his hands, looking nonchalant.
Chen Zhou said indifferently: "Since you are not curious, I won't say anything."
After saying this, he raised a glass of wine and drank it slowly.
Pang Tong: "..."
Actually, I'm quite curious. Why don't you continue talking?
However, Pang Tong quickly stopped showing anything and remained uninterested, but he wanted to know in his heart that this was something Zhuge Liang had been struggling with for a long time. He was interested in it but didn't explain it clearly. Very unethical behavior.
"Shiyuan, your expression has changed."
"Are you blaming me for not making it clear?"
Chen Zhou said this deliberately.
Pang Tong shook his head and denied, "Of course not. I don't really want to know."
Chen Zhou added: "You don't want to know, but I want to say it again. Actually... forget it, I'd better not say it. You can guess for yourself!"
Pang Tong had already pricked up his ears and was ready to listen, but just as he was about to speak, he stopped again. He was making a fool of himself, but he had no choice but to grit his teeth involuntarily.
Others couldn't help laughing when they saw this.
This was to take Pang Tong under control.
"Shi Yuan, what do you think of my place?"
Cao Cao asked.
Pang Tong was very satisfied and said: "Of course Prime Minister Cao is very good. He has calmed down the war in the north. Now, under Prime Minister Cao's governance, many people have begun to recuperate, live and work in peace and contentment, and gradually restore their livelihoods. This is a great good thing!"
These flattering words made Cao Cao feel comfortable, and he asked: "Do you think, after coming to Xudu, will you go or stay in the future?"
Pang Tong stood up, bowed and said: "Prime Minister Cao specially asked someone to invite me back. Of course I will stay to assist Prime Minister Cao and bring peace to the world!"
Hearing this, Cao Cao just smiled slightly.
Chen Zhou didn't even believe Pang Tong's punctuation. He was just afraid of death. He only agreed temporarily so that he could find a chance to leave in the future.
After all, Cao Gu took him away with violent means. Chen Zhou didn't believe that he stayed behind willingly.
"good!"
Cao Cao didn't care whether he was sincere or not. When he saw Pang Tong's statement, he took it as sincere.
Anyway, next, he will put Pang Tong under house arrest and control him, whether he is sincere or not.
