As a prefect, you can see how much you value Cao Chong by coming out to greet him in front of the people on the street.
Dachun wanted to know the reason for his attaching great importance to him: an old minister of Cao Cao in his previous life? This is extremely possible. After all, Liu Fu had an awkward start in this life, Hefei Gucheng! It was cut off by Yuan Shu, and Cao Cao could no longer be contacted.
Similarly embarrassing is Hao Zhao, the governor of Chencang. Hao Zhao was originally a minister of the third emperor of Cao Wei, but in this life, his starting position in Chencang was that Ma Teng was on the left and Dong Zhuo was on the right! It is also an isolated city.
Dachun can imagine that once the heroes of this world of immortals and demons officially start a war, these embarrassing isolated cities will definitely be the first targets to be attacked.
After the two parties met, Liu Fu formally invited: "Master Cao, please come to the post house to talk."
"please."
A group of people entered the post house, which seemed quite simple compared to the luxurious restaurant in Shouchun.
Liu Fu was also a little embarrassed: "It's funny, this is the best hospitality in this city."
Cao Chong praised: "Master Liu's diligent and frugal style has set an example for the whole city."
Liu Fu said with emotion: "I received the Kuai Ma Yi message from Shouchun this morning. I was so shocked that I was sweating profusely! Mr. Yuan has always been unruly, so it's not surprising that he had this intention. But Mr. Cao made me very happy." It’s unexpected, can you tell me why?”
Cao Chong replied: "The demon of Luoyang coerces the emperor to make him a minister, and all the ministers dare not speak out. Mr. Yuan is not afraid of the tricks of the demon and dares to speak out for the world. At the same time, Mr. Yuan knows that his reputation is not good, and he is not afraid of rumors in the world. Cao Chong admires him very much. , and is not afraid of Mr. Yuan’s poor reputation and rumors in the world, and is willing to help him."
Liu Fu was surprised and said: "That's it! Mr. Cao's pen, gun and literary courage have written things that I dare to be angry but dare not say. I also admire him very much! So what do you have to talk to Mr. Yuan?"
Cao Chong was a little embarrassed to speak: "Mr. Yuan wants to cooperate with the prefect..."
Liu Fu shook his head and sighed: "Whether it is trade, navigation or preferential treatment, Liu Fu is very cooperative! With Mr. Yuan's ambition, it won't be as simple as cooperation, right?"
Cao Chong was a little embarrassed: "Yes..."
Dachun was also uncomfortable to hear. After all, Yuan Shu's original words were "Hefei cannot be used by me...". Is this a solution for Cao Cao to rush over and persuade him to surrender? It would be easier to talk to someone with a thicker skin, but Cao Chong seems to be still new.
As an aide, Zhou Buyi must be thick-faced: "Master Liu, you know Mr. Yuan's temper and thoughts."
Liu Fu smiled lightly: "I hand over the seal and ribbon and send Hefei out directly?"
The scene was instantly awkward! Yes, this is what Yuan Shu meant.
The following are probably "I'm sorry and I obey", "Please come back", "You've gone too far" or just flip the table?
Liu Fu clapped his hands, and a waiter actually brought out a plate of parcels in a square box.
Everyone was in disbelief. Did he bring the seal and ribbon with him when he arrived? Is this already ready for delivery?
Liu Fu respectfully held the seal and ribbon in front of Cao Chong: "Then Liu Fu will hand over the seal and ribbon of Yangzhou Governor to Lord Cao Chong, but the premise is that Lord Cao Chong must guard Hefei and Yuan Shu cannot be transferred!"
Everyone was shocked, it was serious! ?
Cao Chong couldn't believe it: "Master Liu, what are you doing?"
Liu Fu sighed: "Otherwise? Surrender to Yuan Shu? I am not willing to surrender! Not surrendering? Yuan Shu regards me as a thorn in my side! If he doesn't move his troops, he will definitely attack Hefei! Shouchun will attack Hefei in the morning and evening, so there is no need. Considering the issue of the logistics line leader, at that time, there was a military disaster and man-made disasters for the people! Then I came up with a way to have both ends, and gave it directly to Lord Cao Chong! Lord Cao Chong is Yuan Shu’s subordinate, what else can Yuan Shu say? "
Damn it! ! Spring is simply wonderful! This Liu Fu has escaped from the realm of power lust! It's just that this makes Dachun a little entangled. Does this mean that Cao Chong will stay in Hefei and can't go out with him anymore? That would be a big loss. I feel that his fame and charm are almost equal. Lu Fan didn't close the door when he saw him, Yuan Shu wanted to be promoted to an official, Liu Fu wanted to be virtuous...
Cao Chong was still in disbelief: "Master Liu, this is the seal of a state and the land of a county, how can it be a child's play?"
Liu Fu smiled faintly: "This seal was given to me by Mr. Cao to ask me to take office immediately. It sounds more childish! What's more, Tao Qian gave it to Xuzhou and Liu Biao gave it to Jingzhou. Why can't I give it to you? I am I think Mr. Cao Chong is young and promising, so it would be better to give him to you."
Cao Chong hurriedly declined: "I still can't do it!"
Liu Fu smiled and said, "What? If you dare to write a document to criticize the emperor, you don't dare to lead a prefect? In fact, this is the seal of the governor, which is bigger than that of the prefect."
It is indeed much bigger, the difference between senior officials and mayors! As for "self-recruitment", it can be regarded as a characteristic of the "Chaos and Chaos" during the Three Kingdoms period. If the big bosses outside wanted to be an official, they would directly grant it to themselves. For example, Liu Bei "promoted himself as the pastor of Yizhou" and "promoted himself as the king of Hanzhong". Of course, self-harvesting is something only those with thick skin should do.
The normal situation is "mutual representation". Some high-level bosses can "represent" others, that is, grant others official titles. Liu Bei gave Yuan Shao's son Yuan Tan an official position, so Yuan Shao appreciated Liu Bei's favor. When Liu Bei came to Sichuan and met Liu Zhang, both of them were big bosses who were qualified to "represent" each other. They were so shameless to each other that they "represented each other as officials", and then burned the application form to the court and even sent people to Delivery is free.
Dachun also saw Cao Chong's difficulties and appointed a prefect of his own accord. Can Yuan Shu trust him?
As I believed before, it was because Cao Chong only wanted to be a recreational official. Yuan Shu could also try his luck by using Cao Chong's fame and identity. Anyway, there were only benefits and no threats. Now he is directly the governor of an important town! There is Cao Cao in the west and Cao Chong in the south. Is Yuan Shu worried?
Zhou Buji said: "Master, Mr. Liu's method is very good. Master, all you need to do is to use the name of a prefect -"
Liu Fu solemnly said: "It's not in name! For the sake of the people of Hefei, I really make concessions. I immediately asked the four local generals Lei Xu, Mei Gan, Qi Ji, and Qin Ling to meet Lord Cao Chong! They are all locals of Hefei. , there is no doubt about the determination to defend the territory, and they will definitely assist the new governor without any hesitation."
Cao Chong waved his hand: "Master Taishou, even if you want to be a good person, you have to have a name. Otherwise, if you give me a good person as soon as you come, Yuan Gong will feel that this is to deal with him specifically, and the people of Hefei will also feel that something is wrong."
Liu Fu smiled and said: "Does it mean that Master Cao Chong is willing? As long as he is willing, this is easy to say!"
Cao Chong said with emotion: "Let's just think of it as a bit of experience, but Lord Liu Fu must assist me. If I have to go back to Chenliu if something happens, my Lord will take over as the governor of Hefei——"
Liu Fu interrupted: "Based on my understanding of Cao Pi, you can't go back to Chenliu."
The scene was awkward again.
Cao Chong had no choice but to change the subject: "Well, I and my party came to Chaohu to find Xia Jie's treasure ship and get rid of the water monsters. Lord Liu Fu can set the topic like this - as long as we get rid of the monsters in Chaohu Water demon, give way to the wise. In this way, even if Duke Yuan finds out, he will have nothing to say."
Liu Fu was overjoyed: "Okay!!"
But then he became worried: "The Lake Chaohu water monster is very ferocious and strange, can you deal with it?"
Cao Chong smiled and pointed at Zhen Ji's head: "Let me introduce you, Dachun, the 20th celebrity..."
