Lu Xuan chuckled and said: "I came to help my father-in-law this time. I was worried that Yuan Shu would cause trouble in the rear, so I went straight into Shouchun and destroyed Yuan Shu. The thing is actually that simple."
Cao Cao's eyes were stern.
Lu Xuan said it very easily.
In fact, it is not easy to deal with Yuan Shu. Although this guy is extravagant, he is also a battle-hardened person.
Cao Cao laughed and said: "They say that running a big country is like cooking small dishes. A good son-in-law is really powerful when he uses troops."
Xiahou Dun's eyes flashed, and he stood up and said: "Lu Shijun captured Shouchun and destroyed Yuan Shu. It is really powerful. We are all leaders of troops, and we know that it is not easy to lead troops to fight. Lu Shijun said it was easy, but it is definitely not true when you think about it. Easy. Mr. Lu, can you tell me how you captured Shouchun?"
Lu Xuan explained: "Actually, it's not complicated. Yuan Shu attacked Lujiang County several times and was defeated again and again. His people were heartbroken. During my attack on Wu County, Yuan Shu made a sneak attack on Hefei and was defeated by my people again. He gave up on himself and was heartbroken. Yes, someone took the initiative to surrender, so I easily entered Shouchun and killed Yuan Shu."
The pupils in Cao Cao's eyes shrank.
Take the initiative to surrender?
At the beginning, Cao Cao, Xi Zhicai and others analyzed that the reason why Lu Xuan had insight into Yuan Shu's movements was probably because he had placed someone beside Yuan Shu.
Now it seems that it is indeed true.
The so-called surrender was clearly arranged by Lu Xuan early on.
Lu Xuan is not a simple boy.
Cao Cao raised his hand to stop Xiahou Dun from continuing to ask, and said with a smile: "It is normal for a good son-in-law to raise a righteous army and attack unworthy ministers, and to be invincible. This time the good son-in-law has solved Yuan Shu, so he doesn't have to worry about his future. This is the best result."
Lu Xuandao: "What my father-in-law said makes sense."
Cao Cao changed the topic and said, "Okay, come on, drink, drink."
Lu Xuan also returned the favor with a wine glass.
Cao Ang returned to the seat and sat down. He toasted Lu Xuan. He originally wanted to say a few more words to Lu Xuan, but his father took over and Cao Ang said no more. Anyway, Lu Xuan is here and there is plenty of time to talk.
Cao Ang's impression of Lu Xuan is even more favorable now.
In the past, Lu Xuan saved his life regardless of past grudges. This time the Cao family was in crisis, and everyone was in trouble, but Lu Xuan led his army and took the trouble to come to Juancheng to help.
As for Lu Xuan asking for war horses and Lu Bu's cavalry generals, Cao Ang thought it was nothing.
At any rate, Lu Xuan's enthusiasm should not be dampened.
The banquet continues.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, everyone drank a lot of wine.
Cao Cao was a little tipsy, his interest became more and more high, and his pride suddenly arose. He is optimistic by nature and an extremely heroic person. Although Yanzhou was in turmoil and Cao Cao was worried in his heart, Cao Cao was able to suppress his inner worries and silence his worries. On the contrary, he boosted morale and made everyone go all out.
Cao Cao stood up and walked back and forth where he was sitting. Everyone in the hall looked over.
Xun Yu chuckled and shook his head after seeing it.
The Lord wants to compose poetry again.
This is the habit of the Lord. After drinking too much wine, when inspiration strikes, he will not vomit or feel unhappy. The key is that Cao Cao's poems were so well written that even a man like Xun Yu, who came from a well-known family, admired and admired him.
Lu Xuan looked at Cao Cao's appearance and looked at the people around him who were used to it, and knew that it was a normal operation.
He watched quietly.
Cao Cao stood above, walking back and forth with a wine glass. After a while, Cao Cao said with a smile: "The good son-in-law spared no effort to come to the rescue. While everyone is drinking, I will compose a song called "Wine Concert."
"Drinking songs, in peacetime, the officials do not call the door. The king is wise and wise, and the prime minister is loyal and good."
"If you are courteous and respectful, the people will have no disputes or lawsuits."
"Three years of tillage yields nine years of storage. The barn is full, but the grain is gray and unloaded."
"Yuze is like this, and a hundred grains are used to make it."
"But they run away and dung their fields."
"The duke, prince, and uncle love his people so much that he deposes You Ming and raises his son like a father and brother."
"Violations of etiquette and law will be punished according to the severity."
"There is no selfish way to pick up lost things."
"The prison is empty, and the winter festival continues. People are old and old, and they all end their lives. Their kindness extends to plants, trees, and insects."
After drinking, Cao Cao was in high spirits and his loud voice echoed in the hall. After finishing his poem, he looked at Lu Xuan and asked, "Xianxiang, what do you think of my poem "Wine"?"
Lu Xuan looked at him with admiration and said: "My father-in-law's poem "Wine" is simple in terms of words. Especially in the poem, the feelings for the family and country, the desire for a virtuous king and good ministers, and the hope for peace in the world are so sincere that I can't match them. .”
Lu Xuan has always admired Cao Cao's broadmindedness.
"During Wine" is a Yuefu poem that he has read before. It is the embodiment of Cao Cao's ideals and ambitions. He wants peace in the world, stability for all the people, and virtuous kings and good ministers.
Xun Yu's eyes were bright, and he said excitedly: "My lord's poem "During Wine" is so brilliant that I admire you."
The other civil servants also spoke one after another, and without exception they all praised Cao Cao.
A smile appeared on Cao Cao's face.
This is his daily routine.
After all, he, Cao, was born with great literary talents, and he was so different.
Cao Cao looked at Lu Xuan and said with a smile: "My dear son-in-law, you are also a scholar and good at composing poems. How about you write a poem while you are in this elegant mood? Although Lu Bu occupies Puyang, Lu Bu is a reckless man and is nothing to be afraid of. Today Drinking wine and writing poems must be done to the fullest."
Lu Xuan looked calm, shook his head and said: "My father-in-law is a great poet and poet, with great literary talent. I am only average in learning and have no inspiration, so I don't need to compose poetry."
Cao Cao frowned and said, "Hey, my virtuous son-in-law, do you look down on me, Cao Cao, and don't bother to make a fuss? Or are you worried that I will be unhappy if you write a poem and overwhelm me? Don't worry, this is impossible."
He looked confident.
When it comes to writing poetry, Cao Cao has always been quite confident.
Lu Xuan shook his head and said: "Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were born in the Yuan family, four generations and three princes, but in my eyes, they are just like that, not worth mentioning. My father-in-law dared to assassinate Dong alone, his courage was unparalleled. The princes were afraid of Dong Zhuo, so my father-in-law took the lead in attacking him. Dong Zhuo dared to be the first in the world. My father-in-law governs the place and protects the environment and the people. I have always respected my father-in-law, so how can I look down on my father-in-law? I just don't have enough inspiration."
Cao Cao had a smile on his face.
What a great son-in-law!
you got me!
Cao Cao felt more and more happy in his heart, shook his robe, and said with a smile: "Xian son-in-law, I know your talent, don't be humble. In front of everyone, you hide your clumsiness and look down on others. Are all Jiangnan literati like you? Are you coy?"
Xiahou Dun stood up and said loudly: "Lu Shijun, if you write a poem and you are more powerful than my lord, after defeating Lu Bu, I, Xiahou Dun, promise to let you choose Lu Bu's generals and prisoners first. In this matter, I Guarantee for you.”
Cao Cao smiled and said: "My dear son-in-law, Xiahou Dun has always stayed out of his poetry writing. Now that he has stepped forward, do you still want to hide your clumsiness?"
Pairs of eyes looked over.
Xun Yu also joined in the fun and said with a smile: "Lu Shijun is from a famous family and has unparalleled talents. Why not recite a poem today if you have this time? Tomorrow we will attack Lu Bu. If you have Yaxing by then, you will not have this opportunity."
Xun You smiled and said: "Lu Shijun, please give it a try. Don't refuse."
Xia Houyuan said loudly: "Lu Shijun is both civil and military. Is it false?"
They kept persuading each other, all waiting for Lu Xuan to recite poems.
Lu Xuan stood up and said with a smile: "My father-in-law and all the wise men said so, so I will try my best?"
Cao Cao said: "Please!"
Lu Xuan took two steps and said with a smile: "My father-in-law's poem "During Wine" is a Yuefu poem. I also wrote a Yuefu poem called "The Wine Will Enter".
