"Haha, hahahaha!"
Hearing this title, Gongsun Kang laughed from ear to ear.
The governor of Liaodong would not expect to be a prince, king or emperor. It is too unrealistic.
A Youzhou shepherd is his extravagant wish now.
And this extravagant wish has finally come true!
"Thank you so much, Mr. Cao! I... I will definitely do my best to repay Mr. Cao for your kindness!"
"Haha, Gongsun Zhoumu is too polite."
Cao Pi pulled Gongsun Kang cordially, his smile unusually gentle.
"This position is prepared for Gongsun Zhoumu. Sooner or later, it will be yours."
"Now, Zhou Mu is willing to sell his ancestral home to help the orphans. This friendship is truly 'kind'!"
Cao Pi bit the word "favor" very hard, almost as if he was gritting his teeth.
Gongsun Kang knew it in his heart, but he kept pretending to be confused.
"Haha, Mr. Cao is so polite. It is an honor for the governor of this state to share his worries!"
Cao Pi heard this in his heart and cursed angrily.
Just now it still didn't work no matter what, but with this skill, it will work.
It's so hypocritical that there's nothing left to say.
"Gongsun Zhoumu, that General Wang...?"
"Don't worry, Mr. Cao, I always tell the truth!"
After agreeing, Gongsun Kang walked directly to the door.
"Somebody come!"
The soldiers were already waiting and immediately obeyed the order.
"Please give me your instructions, Lord Prefect."
Gongsun Kang glared.
"Asshole, from now on, I will be the State Shepherd!"
"Watch your words, or watch your head!"
The soldier's face changed with fear.
"Lord Zhou Mu, spare your life!"
Upon hearing this title, Gongsun Kang's angry face instantly softened, and he nodded with a smile.
"Not bad."
"Take Wang Lie down and find the best doctor to treat his injuries. There must be no mistakes!"
"As you command!"
The soldiers did not dare to hesitate and left with Wang Lie on his back.
Gongsun Kang watched the figure disappear before returning to the house.
"Master Cao, are you satisfied?"
"Thank you Zhou Mu."
After achieving his goal, Cao Pi naturally had no dissatisfaction.
As long as Wang Lie is cured, we can know Cao Pi's kindness to him.
When the time comes to recruit and surrender, is there any reason not to surrender?
No, after this incident, Wang Lie must have given up on Gongsun Kang.
"Having been traveling for days and sleeping in the open, Mr. Cao must be tired."
"It's getting late now. If you have nothing to do, why don't you go and rest first?"
Gongsun Kang smiled and issued an order to expel the guests.
For him, Cao Pi's current usefulness has ended, and it would be awkward to take him down and entrust him to the virtual snake.
"Haha, thank you Zhou Mu for your concern."
Cao Pi first expressed his gratitude, and then changed his tone.
"I...I still have something to discuss with the state pastor."
"oh?"
Gongsun Kang was in a good mood and was extremely generous.
"Since Mr. Cao has something to do, just speak up."
"As long as the Honshu Mu can do it, I will never refuse!"
Cao Pi's eyes lit up. He didn't expect Gongsun Kang to be so generous after he got the governorship.
"Thank you! This matter is extremely easy for Zhou Mu. It only takes one sentence."
"Please give me some instructions, Mr. Cao."
"That's what I mentioned to Zhou Mu today about the announcement of King Wei who is alone in the world."
"What!"
Gongsun Kang exclaimed, and his expression suddenly changed.
I thought Cao Pi wanted to ask for some benefits, but I didn't expect it to be such a rude request!
The King of Wei is still in Liaodong, so he obviously cannot agree to this.
If you openly claim to be the king of Liaodong, then who will belong to Liaodong in the future?
Although Gongsun Kang has the final say at all times, the King of Wei is the one who controls the state after all, and he is also the King of Wei who bestows the state pastor.
How could Gongsun Kang admit that President Cao Pi was pressing down on him?
"Mr. Cao, this matter is very important, but... let's take a long-term approach!"
Cao Pi had already guessed that Gongsun Kang would not agree, so he would not let go easily.
"What Zhou Mu said is wrong! If there is no upright King of Wei, how can there be a just and upright Zhou Mu?"
"It must be noted that if the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked! Doesn't Gongsun Zhoumu want to be criticized for his identity?"
"this..."
Gongsun Kang hesitated again. Normally, this was indeed the case.
But it would definitely not work to allow Cao Pi to openly ascend the throne of Wei King in Liaodong.
For a moment, I was in a dilemma again.
"Mr. Cao, this matter is of great concern and is definitely not the intention of the shepherd of this state."
"Actually, Benzhou Mu has absolutely no objection to this matter, and he admits from the bottom of his heart that Mr. Cao is the current King of Wei!"
"It's just that once Liu Zhang finds out about this, he will be furious! When the time comes to attack with all the strength of the country, how can we resist?"
Cao Pi frowned, not expecting that Gongsun Kang would find such a reason to refute.
Indeed, at this point, the person who is most unable to accept Cao Pi becoming king is Liu Zhang.
The consequences of the King of Han's anger were by no means easily foreseeable.
The Han army is still the biggest trouble.
"But if Guruo doesn't proclaim himself king openly, won't the position of Zhou Mu be criticized by others?"
Gongsun Kang waved his hands repeatedly.
What a joke, in Liaodong, who dares to point fingers at him?
After leaving Liaodong, it doesn’t matter anymore.
Therefore, Gongsun Kang did not care about Cao Pi's concerns.
"Mr. Cao, for the great cause, it is nothing for Benzhou Mu to be patient."
"Everything is to defeat the Han army!"
"ah?"
Cao Pi was stunned, how could it become like this in the blink of an eye.
"Gongsun Zhoumu, that's not the case, it's..."
"Eh!"
After finally reversing the situation, how could Gongsun Kang let Cao Pi continue to fight.
"Master Cao, defeating the Han army is the key right now! If you can't defeat the Han army, neither your king of Wei nor my state pastor will have any meaning!"
"How about this, defeat the Han army first and capture Youzhou!"
"In this way, Mr. Cao ascends the throne in Youzhou, and I also need a legitimate state pastor to control Youzhou!"
"I wonder what Young Master Cao wants?"
Looking at Gongsun Kang who could not be questioned, what else could Cao Pi say?
I can only nod and agree.
"That's all it can do..."
