Cao Cao smiled without leaving a trace. Seeing that everyone was talking about it, he did not delay and continued to speak while the iron was hot:
"The truth was like a feather in my dream. I floated to the other side and looked for it, but found nothing. Suddenly I looked back to the northwest of Ye City, and saw a golden light in the city. Not long after, the truth was awakened by Gongda.
I realized that I had accidentally wandered into a fugue——"
"After asking Gongda if he could see the golden light in the city, Gongda said he only saw me standing there for a long time..."
Having said this, Cao Cao paused and showed a rather serious expression.
"I thought about it over and over, but couldn't figure out the reason. I didn't know what the golden light meant. I couldn't think about it, so I took action. It was on that day that I ordered Gongda and his people to dig soil in the northwest of Ye City, that is, here.
Finally, I got a bronze bird."
At this time, Cao Cao pointed his hand at Xun You, who had been waiting for a long time. Xun You walked onto the stage with small steps, stood next to Cao Cao, and declared to the stunned crowd in a Godly tone:
"Everyone, I don't know if you know that in the past, during the time of the Three Sovereigns and the Five Emperors, Shun's mother dreamed of a jade bird in her arms and gave birth to Emperor Shun. Now she has a bronze bird, which is also an auspicious sign - this is God's mercy and commends the Prime Minister for his contribution to bringing peace to the world. Although
Not being as good as the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors is just God's will. If we can't build this platform, it's the real way to go against heaven!"
Xun You spoke loudly, and his tone made many people breathe quickly.
If this is really the case, how dare they have any temper at all?
Seeing everyone's frightened reactions, Xun You felt confident, so he took this opportunity and continued:
"I expressed this intention to the Prime Minister, but the Prime Minister was unwilling to build the platform on the grounds of wasting people and damaging money, even if it was against the will of heaven. Such Chicheng and such forgiving heart make me, who is a minister, extremely regretful and extremely regretful.
Sad.”
"The Prime Minister did not hesitate to make this decision for the people of Yecheng. Where can we find a Prime Minister who cares about the people so much?"
The inciting words just blurted out. When he said this, Cao Cao's subordinates could no longer bear it.
After all, for them, they completely know why the Tongque Tower was proposed——
"Gongda's eloquence is really good...but this trick of sir is really good——"
Zhang Liao was muttering to Xiahou Dun on the side.
Xun Yu in front was worried that Zhang Liao might have spilled the beans, so he quickly turned around and glared at him, and then Zhang Liao shut up.
Yes...the decision to build the Bronze Bird Tower was exactly what was written in the brochure sent by Yi Xiaotian from Xiangyang.
When Cao Cao opened the brocade bag, most of the officials were present. It can be said that they witnessed Yi Xiaotian's far-sighted side.
Yi Xiaotian asked Cao Cao to make up a ridiculous reason, and asked Xun You to convince everyone when the time came. Just like what he showed today, it was exactly the same.
In the kit, Yi Xiaotian mentioned all the previous benefits.
But in fact, if these were the only benefits, Cao Cao might have built the Tongque Tower just because of his rationality.
But if you add Yi Xiaotian’s last sentence:
"If Brother Hidden is worried that he can't convince the Prime Minister, just tell him that before long, someone will help him bring the Jiangdong Erqiao that he misses so much - how disappointing it will be if he doesn't have a decent place to live by then?
"
"I won two Qiaos from Jiangdong and placed them on the Bronze Bird Tower..."
To be honest - when Cao Cao saw the last paragraph of this tip bag, his mouth almost watered.
Xiao Jiujiu in his heart was completely seen through by Yi Xiaotian.
Yes, in the previous Battle of Chibi, although the goal was to unify the world and capture Soochow, the hidden reason why Cao Cao passed through Jingzhou and did not turn to Yizhou was to attack the more powerful Soochow.
It is precisely because of the existence of Er Qiao.
Darling, is this the most decent wife in the world?
As a married woman, how could Cao Aman resist such temptation?
But later, the dream of Red Cliff was shattered, and Cao Cao was not in the mood to mention the matter.
But Yi Xiaotian's tips directly took away Cao Cao's soul.
At that time, Cao Cao was shouting in the palace:
"Brother Yi! Where did Brother Yi go? Could it be that Brother Yi has gone to Jiangdong?"
"Find someone! Find someone to protect Brother Yi secretly! We must let Brother Yi return safely! My Brother Yi!"
What does it mean to be excited and scared at the same time?
That's it.
So after that, Cao Cao was very concerned about Tongque Terrace.
When I eat and sleep, I talk about Tongque Tai.
Under such circumstances and with such power of action, within half a year, the magnificent Santai was raised from the ground.
Until today——
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu——Prime Minister...it turned out that the Prime Minister made such a sacrifice——"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Xun You was on the stage with his hands behind his back, looking at the sky at an angle of 45 degrees. It was so melancholy.
After Xun You, who had done his best to perform the show, squeezed out a few tears, and at the height of his emotions, he slowly said:
"For this reason...as a minister, I can only do my best to advise the Prime Minister. After all kinds of compromises, and under the strong request of the Prime Minister, the Tongque Tower is not only for viewing, but also has many unique functions. This is the setting
Down."
"Today... the Bronze Bird Tower was first established, and the Prime Minister still has thousands of words to say..."
After taking pictures of the horses and settling the public opinion, Xun You immediately handed over the main stage. Cao Cao had been silent on the side just now, but now he stood back on the stage and without even saying a word, he attracted the worship and praise of hundreds and thousands of Yecheng people.
.
"The Prime Minister is really my big man's humerus!!"
"Prime Minister! Prime Minister, you must not take it seriously! Anyone who dares to slander the Prime Minister will be at odds with us!"
"Having a prime minister is truly a blessing for our Han people!!"
In short, after a long period of worship, Cao Cao felt a little embarrassed.
He touched his nose and coughed twice, which stopped the people from worshiping, and then announced:
"Today is an auspicious day and no one should be punished for it!"
"Today... I just want to have fun with the people! Let's celebrate the completion of the Tongque Tower!"
“No need to say more, let’s play the music and let the banquet begin!!”
Cao Cao's ending can be regarded as a model.
At Cao Cao's order, the ritual and music teams that had been prepared poured out from both sides of the street.
After just a while, the place was filled with "loud drums and music, singing and dancing, and an unprecedented grand occasion."
The people were just stunned for a moment, and then merged into the sea of joy. Amidst the cheers, Cao Cao and several young sons came to the stage together.
As the second son, Cao Pi was definitely much better than his eldest brother Cao Ang in terms of talent and learning. He blurted out:
"The flying space rises to its peak, and the floors seem to support the sky."
The rising officials all praised Cao Pi's literary talent.
What is even more eye-catching is that Cao Zhi, who is only seventeen years old this year, still has a childlike look on his face. However, under everyone's attention, Cao Zhi took the stage, grasped his pen, and wrote a "Standing Ode" in one go, which attracted applause from the whole city.
"See the vastness of Tianfu, the new camp of saintliness. The tall palace built, the two floating valves almost too clear. The flowers towering up to the sky, the flying pavilions reaching the West City. The long flowing water of Zhangchuan River.
Look forward to the prosperity of all the fruits, look up to the peaceful spring breeze, and listen to the mournful chirping of the birds."
Many literati, such as Chen Lin, saw this and praised them without hesitation:
"The prince is a man of great talent, armed with the tools of the Qingping cadre. He is able to make decisions at the right moment without making a sound. This is a natural talent that cannot be acquired by those who admire him."
