"Brother Hide, do you know Mi Zhu?" Before telling the story, Yi Xiaotian asked a question.
"How could I not know about the famous merchant in Xuzhou City? I heard that his family has more than 10,000 customers."
Cao Cao raised his hand and looked very familiar.
Speaking of which, in order to play the role of this businessman in front of Yi Xiaotian.
Cao Cao did a lot of homework, such as Wei Zi, a merchant from Chenliu County, Mi Zhu, a merchant from Xuzhou, Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang, a merchant from Youzhou, and Lu Su, a merchant from Soochow... He deliberately learned about them.
In his opinion, Yi Xiaotian is a smart person. If he doesn't do his homework, he will be exposed.
"Brother Hiding...Do you know that when Liu Bei was the shepherd of Xuzhou, he was attacked by Lu Bu and when he ran for his life in panic, his family...ah...actually it was his wife, Mrs. Gan, who was detained by Lu Bu?"
Yi Xiaotian asked next.
"I know..." Cao Cao nodded...
This matter has been mentioned many times in the intelligence from Xuzhou...
The intelligence also mentioned that Liu Bei was disheartened at that time and looked as if he could not mourn more than he was heartbroken.
It is true that he is a man whose brothers are like brothers and sisters and his wife is like clothes. However, when others want to touch his clothes, he feels sad and aggrieved!
Thinking of this, Cao Cao said, "It was mentioned in the intelligence that Liu Bei at that time looked like a woman, as if he had lost his soul..."
"That's not the point."
Yi Xiaotian waved his hand directly. "Brother Hidden, you probably don't know that at that very moment, Mi Zhu, a wealthy businessman in Xuzhou, married his sister Mi to Liu Bei, and also gave Liu Bei all his wealth and nearly 10,000 followers.
, help him make a comeback!"
Yo...this...
Cao Cao was stunned, the intelligence never mentioned this!
If this word came from someone else's mouth, Cao Cao would definitely not believe it.
Who would be stupid enough to help a guy who was defeated and looked dejected...
The risk of this investment is too great. If you don't protect it all, you will lose everything. Mi Zhu is a shrewd businessman... How can a businessman do such a thing?
What's more, Mi Zhu not only invested money, but also invested in people, and even invested in his own sister...
This...is somewhat unreasonable.
But unfortunately, these words came from Brother Yi. Brother Yi never told lies... Since he said this, it has a different meaning when understood.
"Brother Yi, after hearing what you said, I suddenly felt that... even Liu Bei who has not reached his lowest point is a bit scary."
Cao Cao sighed.
No wonder he sighed...
At that time, Liu Bei looked miserable, and he could even make Mi Zhu, a wealthy businessman in Xuzhou, bankrupt his family and help him out of pocket... This... This kind of imperial technique, or this way of winning people's hearts, is really terrifying...
Just imagine, a guy who is so good at winning people's hearts, how can he be someone who depends on others? How can he be willing to live under others?
Even taking a step back...
If he really wanted to be under someone else's care, Cao Cao would not dare to use him!
If the protection was not complete, all the other generals under his command were deceived by Liu Bei.
"Brother Yi, I kind of understand... Your assessment of Liu Bei, who is definitely not a thing in the pond, is very accurate..." Cao Cao sighed again.
"I'm not busy..." Yi Xiaotian waved his hand, where did he go...
There are still many little stories about Liu Bei.
He studied this period of history, and the stories about Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan came to mind at the drop of a hat. He could tell them for three hours without exhausting them...
"Brother Hi, please listen to the following story. I hope your impression of Liu Bei will be greatly improved."
Hmm...Cao Cao was a little surprised. What story could change his mind a lot? Did Liu Bei do something outrageous?
At this time, Yi Xiaotian blinked his eyes, and soon, a clear voice emerged.
"This story happened when Liu Bei was defeated by Lu Bu for the second time. He ran away like a lost dog again."
The time Yi Xiaotian mentioned was familiar to Cao Cao...
It was the time when Cao Cao followed Yi Xiaotian's plan of two tigers competing for food and drove a wedge between Liu Bei and Lu Bu... which led to a fight between the two parties and Liu Bei fled to Cao Cao...
But what Cao Cao is confused about is...During his escape, did Liu Bei have another story? Why did there only be so many things happen when this guy was escaping?
Of course, what Cao Cao didn't know was.
Liu Bei's stories happened all during his escape, which is also related to his experiences in the first half of his life...
Overall, he spent the first half of his life doing two things, besides running away, he just cried...
"Brother, before Liu Bei fled and met Cao Cao this time... he passed through a village. Because he was hungry and cold, he announced his home and went to beg for food from the villagers... As soon as everyone heard the names of Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, they all rushed
Prepare food and bring it to Liu Bei."
"It was getting late, and Liu Bei, who had eaten and drank enough, stayed at the home of a hunter, and this hunter was named Liu An."
When Yi Xiaotian talked about this, Cao Cao felt a little boring. Isn't this just a trivial matter? How could it be worthy of Brother Yi's solemn explanation?
For a moment, Cao Cao was a little confused. He couldn't figure out what Brother Yi wanted to explain. Could it be that Liu Bei won the hearts of the people?
But this seems to be obvious, and there is no need for proof at all?
At the stall where Cao Cao was confused, Yi Xiaotian's words came next.
"Liu An, the hunter, knew that the visitor was Liu Bei, so he planned to find some game for Liu Bei to try. But where could he find game at night? So he killed his wife with a knife and cooked it for her to eat.
Liu Bei tasted it."
Uh...this...
All of a sudden, Cao Cao's eyes widened!
Has Liu Bei's so-called people's attachment reached this level?
To be able to...make a strange man kill his wife and feed her...this...
With a "gu dong" sound, Cao Cao swallowed a mouthful of saliva subconsciously. He was both shocked by Orion's incredible actions and shocked by Liu Bei's energy and prestige...
Yi Xiaotian glanced at Cao Cao and saw that he looked horrified. He shook his head and continued to preach.
"Liu Bei felt something was wrong after eating it, so he asked what kind of meat it was. Liu An, the hunter, lied and said it was wolf meat... and the matter passed like this. But the next day, when Liu Bei went to the backyard to pick up the horse,
, when he saw a woman being killed in the kitchen, and the flesh on her arms had been cut off, he realized that what he ate last night was the flesh of Liu An's wife!"
call…
Cao Cao was shocked by what he heard. He stretched out his hand to wipe his sweat and couldn't help but ask. "Liu Bei should feel very guilty towards Liu An and this woman!"
Cao Cao sighed with emotion...
"No..." Who knows, Yi Xiaotian waved his hand directly. "Liu Bei didn't say a word, didn't even have too many words. He left... Even to this day, he has never contacted Liu An again.
! Not to mention showing the slightest hint of guilt..."
Um...this?
Cao Cao was startled. If Liu An's act of killing his wife was incredible enough, Liu Bei's expressionless face and lack of guilt even though he knew he had eaten the flesh of someone else's wife was even more shocking!
Could it be...this is just...Cao Cao seemed to have thought of something.
Yi Xiaotian spoke first.
"That's right, Liu Bei will not be surprised at all, because this is his purpose. Is Xuzhou his? In fact, he already knew it earlier, and he will not deliberately fight with Cao Cao or rob Cao Cao...
However, it seems that he saw something more important than seeking Xuzhou, which is the support of the people of the world!"
"Liu An is just an example, or in other words, it is a case where Liu Bei openly verified the results of his people's support! Don't look at Liu Bei's courteous appearance on the surface, but in fact, he is a ruthless person... He looks kind and righteous on the surface, but in fact he is ruthless in his heart.
Incomparably, we can see the clues from Liu An's incident!"
"One thing on the surface, another behind the scenes... On the surface, benevolence and righteousness are everywhere, but secretly, they are hypocritical and waiting for opportunities..."
"He was keenly aware of the changes in the situation. In order to plot Xuzhou, he did not hesitate to betray his old classmate Gongsun Zan; in order to defeat Lu Bu, he did not hesitate to seek refuge with his old rival Cao Cao; in order to completely kill Lu Bu, he did not hesitate to waste his life-saving grace by shooting a halberd at the gate;"
"Killing with a borrowed knife is an attempt to weaken the two camps of Cao Cao and Lu Bu in one fell swoop. On the contrary, he has won all the hearts of the people! Such a deep-rooted, vicious, hypocritical guy... Brother Bao, do you still think that he will be someone who is inferior to others?
"
Yi Xiaotian's words became louder and more urgent...
Huo…
Cao Cao felt that every word he said was completely shocking, like an icy cold blade poking straight into the depths of his heart...
Cao Cao found that he was still too naive. He didn't even notice such a terrible opponent beside him. If Brother Yi hadn't reminded him, then... the consequences would have been unimaginable!
Speaking of which, Cao Cao's view of Liu Bei has really undergone a 180-degree turn today!
He is ambitious, visionary, extremely wealthy, hypocritical, and vicious... but on the surface he appears to be unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, and is sanctimonious.
Real villains are not scary, it is such hypocrites who are the most terrifying...
Fortunately, Brother Yi told the story in detail, otherwise Cao Cao would have been confused by Liu Bei's performance, and would have fallen into a desperate situation.
Huh...Cao Cao took a deep breath.
It seems that he already has the answer to the question of whether to leave Liu Bei to govern Xuzhou.
How could such a dangerous person be kept in Xuzhou?
The best thing is to stay by your side and watch his every move closely...
As for whether to kill him or not?
Yes, if Cao Cao wants to kill Liu Bei in the name of his benevolence and righteousness, many people will definitely disagree!
But if Liu Bei makes a mistake and his ambition is exposed...then maybe if he is killed, he will be much more famous!
Dark belly…
Cao Cao felt that to fight Liu Bei, he must be more sinister than Liu Bei!
