Jiang Ji looked at Liu Zhe's calm face and his hair was numb. He finally understood that Liu Zhe had not tried his best, but was just teasing Cao Cao.

Jiang Ji did not doubt the authenticity of Liu Zhe's words. After all, Cao Cao, the army on the border, had already found out clearly.

At the same time, why did Liu Zhe keep his troops still? Except for Yanjin City, the rest of the place was very calm. This question has always troubled Cao Cao, and now, Jiang Ji knows the answer. It turned out that it was because Liu Zhe was very proud.

"Tai, Taiwei..."

Faced with Liu Zhe's aggressive attitude, Jiang Ji couldn't help but panic.

"Mr. Zitong."

Liu Zhe suddenly laughed and said, "I have never wanted to be an enemy of Meng De. He is his Supreme Emperor in Xudu, and I don't see it either. As long as it does not endanger the life of the emperor, no matter how outrageous he is, I will not care. Because I know that Meng De is not a bad person, he is also a person with ideals and ambitions."

"But Meng De seemed to be ungrateful and came to deal with our lieutenant again and again. Did he really think that our lieutenant is easy to bully?"

Jiang Ji was thinking about Liu Zhe's meaning. After hearing Liu Zhe's words, he hurriedly said: "Taiwei, the Prime Minister has never wanted to be an enemy of the Taiwei, so there must be many misunderstandings in this."

"Misunderstand?"

Liu Zhe laughed, then said coldly: "I have written a letter to Meng De in person, telling him to hand over Sun Cheng, but he just doesn't listen. It would be fine if he doesn't listen, but he even used a fake to fool me. Does he have something to rely on?"

"If our lieutenant really wants to kill Meng De, we don't need to take action at all. I heard that Xu Du has many people opposed Meng De, right? What do you think if our lieutenant secretly supports some people, Meng De will be like?"

Cold sweat appeared on Jiang Ji's forehead.

Xu Du can be said to be Cao Cao's lifeline. If Xu had any mistakes, Cao Cao would be finished.

Liu Zhe's words are very threatening. Liu Zhe is strong enough to support a political force equal to Cao Cao in Xudu. Once a political force equal to Cao Cao competes with Cao Cao in the court, Cao Cao's political prestige will be greatly hit.

Or maybe Liu Zhe simply supported the forces in the dark and came out to cause trouble while Cao Cao was not paying attention. This would make Cao Cao feel anxious and have no time to take care of other things.

No matter which of the above two types, it will pose a great threat to Cao Cao and put Xu in extreme danger.

"Zi Tong, please come back first."

Liu Zhe said to Jiang Ji: "When you go back, tell Meng De that 10,000 taels of gold, 100,000 hu of grain and grass, one tael of silver, and a grain of food should not be left behind. Otherwise, our lieutenant would let General Zilian be a guest at our lieutenant."

"If I want our lieutenant to withdraw, I will hand over Sun Cheng first."

"Taiwei, Taiwei..."

Jiang Ji shouted in a hurry, trying hard to say something, but Liu Zhe had already sent off the guests.

"please!"

The vicious Dian Wei personally saw the guests off, came to Jiang Ji, stared at Jiang Ji fiercely, and made a gesture of invitation to Jiang Ji.

Seeing the tall and ferocious Dian Wei, Jiang Ji felt pressure in his heart and couldn't say what he wanted to say for a while, and then he had to walk out.

Just as Jiang Ji was about to leave the door, Liu Jing spoke out.

She said to Jiang Ji: "Uncle Zitong, go back and tell Cao Cao that if he says he will not pay the money, I can help him, as a loan to him."

Jiang Ji paused, looked at Liu Jing, and then looked at Cao Hong beside him. He was shocked, then nodded to Liu Jing, and finally left Yanjin City with a heavy heart.

Jiang Ji returned to the camp and told Cao Cao truthfully that Liu Zhe said, which made Cao Cao tremble all over but could do nothing. Liu Zhe clearly relied on his strength to bully Cao Cao, but Cao Cao had no good idea.

"Prime Minister."

Jiang Ji said to Cao Cao: "It's better to agree with Liu Zhe's request to hand over the money and grain to Liu Zhe and let General Zilian come back."

Jiang Ji faced Liu Zhe directly and knew that Liu Zhe was determined. If he wanted to exchange Cao Hong for the return, he had no choice but to agree to Liu Zhe's request. It was impossible to bargain.

"Damn it, if you do this, will it make people laugh at me?" Cao Cao's body was still trembling. He did whatever Liu Zhe said and spread it out. Where did Cao Cao's face be put?

"Prime Minister."

Jiang Ji said: "If General Zi Lian is not redeemed, people in the world will not only laugh at him, but will also give Liu Zhe the opportunity to use General Zi Lian to attack the morale of the soldiers."

Cao Cao was silent, and he understood what Jiang Ji meant.

If Cao Hong falls into the hands of the enemy and refuses to save him, it will definitely make the other soldiers feel sad. They will definitely think like this. Even if someone like Cao Hong is not saved, will they still save someone who is not as good as Cao Hong?

"Does Liu Zhe really refuse to reduce his money and food?" Cao Cao asked gritted his teeth.

Jiang Ji shook his head and finally said, "When his subordinates arrived in Yanjin City, Princess Hejian was persuading General Zi Lian to surrender."

"snort."

Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "Zi Lian will not betray the orphan."
