This question shocked everyone in the room.
Bei Yan, in particular, was the most puzzled, and his surprised eyes said everything.
There was only one person, Cao Pi was very calm.
Watching Gongsun Kang and Bei Yan quietly, admiring their performances.
"Master Zhou Mu, it's not you..."
"shut up!"
Gongsun Kang was furious.
"The Honshu Mu asked you to invite Mr. Cao to come over to discuss important matters. What did you do?"
"Tell me, isn't that rude!"
"No!"
Bei Yan shook his head quickly, and would rather die than admit it.
"How dare you disobey Master Zhou Mu's order!"
"Not yet?"
Cao Zhi was so happy that he was adding insult to injury and immediately came out to ridicule him.
"Lord Zhou Mu, you don't know something. This humble general almost tied us up and pressed us here."
"What!"
When Gongsun Kang heard this, his anger rose even more.
"Bei Yan, you are so brave! Mr. Cao is a distinguished guest of Benzhou Mu, how dare you be rude!"
"I think you are tired of living!"
Beiyan looked bitter and immediately begged for mercy.
"Lord Zhou Mu, please spare your life!"
I thought the farce would end here, but who would have thought that Gongsun Kang would refuse to let go.
"Bei Yan, you lost troops and generals some time ago, and I haven't punished you for losing cities and territory. How dare you be so rude today!"
"Honshu Mu looks like you don't want to live anymore!"
thump!
Bei Yan was so frightened that he fell to his knees.
"Lord Zhou Mu, spare your life, the general will never make things difficult for Young Master Cao!"
"If you don't believe it... If you don't believe it, Master Zhou Mu just ask Young Master Cao..."
The voice became smaller and smaller, and the lower he spoke, the more he spoke, which was obviously a sign of guilty conscience.
Gongsun Kang looked at him suspiciously.
"Really?"
Bei Yan nodded repeatedly and took the initiative to look at Cao Pi.
"Mr. Cao, did you come here on your own? The general...the general didn't do anything to you, right?"
Not to mention, this is still true and Cao Pi cannot refute it.
"Haha, General Bei is so polite, I am so grateful that I shed tears of gratitude!"
Bei Yan's eyes twitched in embarrassment.
"Haha... Many thanks... Many thanks, Mr. Cao..."
"snort!"
Cao Pi snorted coldly and didn't bother to pay attention.
It is impossible for Gongsun Kang to be so mean because of this matter, so what can he do if he wastes more words?
It's better to wait and see what happens.
Seeing that Cao Pi didn't say anything, Gongsun Kang stopped pursuing him and just gave him a warning.
"Bei Yan, if the pastor of this state knows that you are rude to Mr. Cao, you will never be lenient!"
"I will obey your orders!"
Bei Yan bowed in admiration without any intention of disobedience, and Gongsun Kang nodded.
"Get up."
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou Mu!"
After a farce, Gongsun Kang smiled and pulled Cao Pi down beside him.
Instead of going straight to the topic, he started to ask questions.
"Master Cao, how are you doing lately?"
"Very good, thank you Zhou Mu for your concern."
Cao Pi replied kindly, but in his heart he kept insulting Gongsun Kang for his hypocrisy.
For more than a month, I didn’t even ask, why should I show it to you here?
"There's so much wine and meat every day in the hotel, it makes me lazy!"
"Haha, it's fine if Mr. Cao likes it!"
After a brief exchange of greetings, Gongsun Kang began to get into the topic.
"Master Cao, the outcome of the battle with the Han army ahead has been decided."
"Hey, the Liaodong Army was defeated, with tens of thousands of casualties! Among them, the Liaoxi County and the Liaodong vassal country all fell!"
"The situation is critical now, and I have to invite Mr. Cao to come for discussion!"
"oh..."
Cao Pi had known this result for a long time and agreed calmly.
Bei Yan narrowed his eyes and asked immediately.
"Master Cao is so calm. Could it be that he already knew this?"
"Ahem, I haven't left the hotel for more than a month. How do I know?"
Cao Pi coughed twice and secretly cursed himself for forgetting the villain Bei Yan.
Bei Yan could not give up and continued to ask.
"Then Mr. Cao was not surprised at all when he heard the news of the defeat."
"Could it be that Mr. Cao hopes that the Liaodong Army will not be defeated?"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Cao Pi scolded unceremoniously.
Then, he smiled disdainfully.
"General Bei, have you forgotten the bet you made with Gu?"
"What!"
Bei Yan was shocked. He had indeed forgotten, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to find trouble.
This is good, I got caught.
Things that could have been revealed without anyone mentioning them were brought up again.
Cao Pi also seized the opportunity and refused to let go easily.
"Gongsun Zhoumu, did Gu say before the battle that the corner-turning method is not advisable?"
"But the humble general refused to listen and even made bold promises to defeat the Han army. For this reason, he did not hesitate to make a bet with Gu!"
"What's the result? Not listening to good advice leads to this defeat!"
"I'm not afraid of Gongsun Zhoumu's displeasure if I speak out. I've long expected this generation, so I'm staying behind closed doors!"
Gongsun Kang's face darkened and he glared at Bei Yan with great displeasure.
As if to say, if you don't see something, you will cause trouble for yourself!
"Mr. Cao, the matter has come to this, and it is useless to talk about what happened before."
"After the victory of the Han army, their arrogance became even more arrogant. They will soon attack Liaodong, and it will be difficult to save Xiangping City by then!"
"It's okay for Benzhou Mu. If Mr. Cao falls into the hands of the Han army, then... he will be blamed for death!"
These words Feidan did not reassure Cao Pi, but instead he was shocked.
There is something in the words!
However, Cao Pi had to pretend not to know anything and show gratitude.
"Thank you, State Shepherd, for your kindness!"
"When the Han army comes, I have to do it myself and fight them to the death! If you lose, you will die!"
"Even Zhou Mu is willing to fight to the death, how can Gu be worried?"
Gongsun Kang immediately showed abnormality.
No, that's not what I meant at all, let alone what I wanted to do with the Han army.
Why did Cao Pi misunderstand it?
"Haha, Master Cao, Benzhou Mu is not only concerned about the safety of Master Cao, but also the safety of hundreds of thousands of people in Liaodong!"
“Therefore, whatever you do, you must not be willful and take the overall situation into consideration!”
"I wonder if Mr. Cao has any strategy to defeat the enemy under such circumstances?"
