1881, peace talks again

Cao Cao understood Sima Yi's meaning, and used the excuse of being exhausted by the soldiers, and agreed to Liu Bei and Sun Quan's conditions to divide Jingzhou together.

Cao Cao was unwilling to accept it, but at this point, he had to retreat even if he didn't want to retreat.

All of them are his foundation, and there is no need to be misunderstood. Cheng Yu was stabbed and Xiahou Yuan could not support him. If Liu Zhe followed him to do something at this time, it would have taken Cao Cao's life.

"Zhongda, go and invite Liu Bei and Sun Quan to come." Cao Cao gritted his teeth and finally ordered Sima Yi.

Sima Yi nodded, Cao Cao said this, which showed that he had planned to retreat, and at the same time he had to divide Jingzhou equally with Liu Bei and Sun Quan.

"Prime Minister, what about Xiangyang?" Sima Yi was curious about this question. How did Cao Cao plan to deal with Xiangyang?

"Hmph, I think beautifully," Cao Cao snorted coldly. He still didn't think about handing over Xiangyang to Liu Bei.

Sima Yi frowned. He had been experiencing so much saliva that he could not speak to Cao Cao.

Sima Yi frowned, not because Cao Cao did not hand over Xiangyang to Liu Bei. What he cared about was that Cao Cao did not believe all of his words, which made him a little dissatisfied. He had not been able to make Cao Cao obey his words.

I heard that the annoying Zhuge Liang could make Liu Bei obey his advice? It was so annoying. Sima Yi sighed and left the tent.

Sima Yi sent someone to pass the news to Liu Bei and Sun Quan, and agreed that they would meet tomorrow for the last tripartite talks.

Of course, Sima Yi also asked someone to tell Liu Bei the decision that Cao Cao refused to hand over Xiangyang to Liu Bei, warning Liu Bei that if he continued to raise this topic tomorrow, it would only annoy Cao Cao. Cao Cao would really return to Nanjun and see the truth on the battlefield.

The next day, at noon, Liu Bei and Sun Quan came to the agreed place as promised, and Cao Cao also came, and the three parties gathered again.

"Prime Minister, Xu is okay?"

As soon as Sun Quan met, he asked cordially, which made Cao Cao so angry that he killed Sun Quan with his eyes.

Sun Quan felt proud, so he didn't care about Cao Cao's gaze.

Cao Cao took the initiative to invite him to the news of Xu Du's rebellion, and he had guessed that Cao Cao had really agreed to his and Liu Bei's request this time.

"Prime Minister."

Liu Bei spoke out: "Xu Du's rioters did not hurt the emperor, right?"

"No, that's not." Cao Cao snorted coldly.

"There are more prime ministers, otherwise the emperor will be in danger."

Liu Bei flattered: "The human resources left by the Prime Minister turned the tide, protected the emperor, and quelled the rebellion. Bei felt that the Prime Minister was quite the first contribution."

Huh? Cao Cao glanced at Liu Bei. Why did Liu Bei speak so nicely today?

Cao Cao still remembers that during the previous negotiations, Liu Bei and Sun Quan made him so angry that his internal organs exploded. He actually spoke so nicely today? Did he take the wrong medicine?

What Cao Cao didn't know was that Liu Bei also knew that Cao Cao was preparing to agree to his request today, so at Zhuge Liang's suggestion, he said something nice to make Cao Cao feel relaxed and agree to his request as soon as possible.

As long as he meets his request, don’t say good things, let Liu Bei call him Cao Cao’s father.

"Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou, died."

Cao Cao was too lazy to talk nonsense with Liu Bei and Sun Quan. He spoke directly: "There are no leaders in Jingzhou, and all forces are fighting in a mess, and the people are tragically suffering from military disasters."

Cao Cao looked at Liu Bei and Sun Quan coldly, his eyes flashed with reluctance, and then said, "I decided to submit to the emperor and express your conscience to the prefect of Jiangling. I hope you will not let down the emperor's expectations."

This is what I said on the surface, but according to the previous agreement, Xiangyang, Nanyang and Nanxiang (Yi-Nian Zhangling) belong to Cao Cao.

"Thank you Prime Minister." Liu Bei was ecstatic and almost cheered.

"Prime Minister..."

Sun Quan's reaction was much calmer than Liu Bei. Although Cao Cao did not mention him, in fact, he and Liu Bei had already discussed it. Then Liu Bei would just set out three counties from his territory for him.

Jiangdong's family has a great career, so he is calmer than Liu Bei.

Sun Quan asked: "Prime Minister, I think Xiangyang should be divided equally?"

"snort!"

When Cao Cao heard this, he felt unhappy, and his eyes were filled with endless murderous intent, staring at Sun Quan fiercely.

Zhuge Liang, who was beside Liu Bei, was stunned. He looked at Liu Bei. He was a little surprised. Why did Sun Quan mention this?

"If you are not satisfied, it will be invalidated. You and I will fight to the battlefield." Cao Cao glared at Sun Quan.

"Prime Minister, you..." Sun Quan wanted to say something, but Lu Su next to him quickly persuaded Sun Quan.

At this time, Cao Cao was able to make concessions, and it was unnecessary to anger Cao Cao again, so as not to lose his life.

"Prime Minister, please rest assured."

Liu Bei spoke to Cao Cao, "Bi Ding will not let down the emperor's expectations. The Prime Minister should be assured to assist the emperor in the court."

Sima Yi sent someone to warn him, and now he doesn't want to anger Cao Cao. Although he really wants to, he dare not mention it.

The last sentence undoubtedly recognizes Cao Cao's status in the court.

This sentence made Cao Cao very satisfied, and he felt that Liu Bei was much more pleasing to Sun Quan's naughty green.
