Chapter 6763 Damn Position
Chapter 6763 Damn Position
Chen Xi glanced at Li You and said nothing in the end. He actually understood Zhuge Liang's idea, but this idea made Chen Xi very embarrassed.
Even though Zhuge Liang's goal was not to go to Kandahar to replace Cao Cao's forces, when this thing was put on the table, it always gave people a feeling that for Chen Xi, he didn't need Zhuge Liang to go to Kandahar at all. He needed Zhuge Liang to stay in Chang'an. As for Kandahar, as long as nothing happened and things were done slowly, there would be results sooner or later, and there was no need for Zhuge Liang to go there at all.
"Okay, that's it." Chen Xi thought about it for a while, and finally felt that there was no need to dwell on it. He cleared his mind and directly agreed to Li You's proposal. Let it be, as for the result, let's talk about it later, it's not important.
"Wenhe, draft a reply. After the Grand Commandant and Her Royal Highness the Princess approve it, post it." Chen Xi thought for a moment and said, "Let Cao Ang take over Kandahar temporarily to see how it goes."
The excitement on Zhuge Liang's face disappeared instantly when he heard this. He had no intention of going to Kandahar. If Ardashir had gone to Kabul before and needed to take the initiative to attack, he would have thought of going to Kandahar to replace Cao Cao. But now, with the terrain of Beigui, if Ardashir defended it, anyone who went would only be able to slowly grind it down. Even if he gave a plan, that plan was essentially just grinding it down.
"Let's stop here and we won't dwell on this issue anymore. Kong Ming, you can help, but I still have to say that people should live in the present." Chen Xi sighed and said to Zhuge Liang. He didn't know why Zhuge Liang was so obsessed with this matter in this life. It was probably because he had the power of revenge from the very beginning, and he had made his final decision from the very beginning.
Normally, at Zhuge Liang's level, he would be able to let go of many things, or the overall situation of the country would make Zhuge Liang put many things aside. However, Chen Xi always felt that Zhuge Liang was getting deeper and deeper into trouble.
"I can live in the present." Zhuge Liang answered very calmly, without any of his previous aggressiveness. He seemed unusually calm. From this point of view, it can be seen that Zhuge Liang actually knew very well what he was doing and what he wanted to do.
"The problem is that this matter must be handled by a person from Xuzhou. Can we rely on those ordinary people of Xuzhou?" Zhuge Liang said with some emotion.
"The Xuzhou massacre killed about hundreds of thousands of people, resulting in the surviving people of Xuzhou basically having a grudge against Cao Sikong. However, among the millions of people who had a grudge against Cao Sikong, how many still remember this hatred and have the consciousness to seek revenge?" Zhuge Liang looked at Chen Xi quietly.
"Less than one in a hundred." Chen Xi thought for a while and said, hatred is the driving force, but there are actually not many people who put aside the people around them for the sake of hatred and risk their lives for revenge.
"Yes, less than one in a hundred." Zhuge Liang sighed and said, "Even with Gongyang Dayi, there are only so many people willing to seek revenge, and as time goes by, the number of people willing to seek revenge is also decreasing. Even if Cao Sikong himself did not make any mistakes, revenge is basically impossible."
If Cao Cao himself had not encountered any problems, those old soldiers in Xuzhou would really have no hope at all. The level of Hua Ben and Gao Yi were already considered the highest-level veterans in the Han Dynasty. There were definitely no more than a hundred people who were stronger than Gao Yi. However, unless Cao Cao made any mistakes himself, they would not even have a chance to assassinate such people.
Assassination is not that easy. The security system of big shots is there. Even for top veterans, the possibility of success in assassinating big shots is very slim.
This is also the reason why all the forces in the world thought it was a joke after Zhou Yu was assassinated, because according to Zhou Yu's level, it was impossible for him to be assassinated no matter what. Even if the team formed by the Kushan princess party was very exaggerated, if Zhou Yu himself did not relax his vigilance and did not withdraw the defense system, this number of people would not be enough for Zhou Yu's security system to deal with.
When they were at the Ganges River, more Beigui veterans went to assassinate Zhou Yu, but most of them couldn't even see Zhou Yu, let alone hurt him. This is the fact.
Theoretically speaking, in this situation, as long as the time is dragged out long enough, there will be very few people coming to assassinate him in the end. After all, assassination also consumes time and energy. More importantly, it costs money to give up your job and run so far. 99.99% of families in Xuzhou cannot do what Gao Yi did, who could not work for a year and still have food to eat.
This kind of situation of investigating for no reason may seem simple, but this is what really separates ordinary people from the big shots. After all, living people need to eat!
"If we delay any longer, this generation will be gone. Few ordinary people are willing to pass on their hatred to the next generation. Even the elite veterans in Xuzhou who are willing to spend time and energy crossing mountains and rivers to Kandahar are not willing to let their descendants solve their hatred." Zhuge Liang said with a sigh, "People always have to give an explanation. Now that you have said it, you have to do it."
"Kong Ming!" Li You said in a low voice. This kind of words cannot be said.
"It's okay. What Kong Ming said is actually right." Chen Xi sighed and said, "There are millions of people who have grudges, but only a few hundred can take revenge under the system. Only a few dozen are willing to travel thousands of miles to seek revenge, and only a dozen actually carry it out. If the country doesn't give an explanation, it's difficult for individuals to fight against the organization. It was like this when Cao Sikong was in office, and it's also like this when he's not in office?"
"You can't leave." Li You pulled Zhuge Liang and said, "Cao Cao can die, but you can't leave. He has no future. Such behavior is more like paving the way for Cao Zixiu. You use everything you have to break the cause and effect. There is no need for you to leave and leave a stain on yourself."
"I just stopped him from entering Chang'an. I won't care about anything else." Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "As long as he doesn't enter Chang'an, he can go anywhere."
"Okay, that's it." Chen Xi took the written document from Jia Xu, read it roughly, and then stamped his seal directly on it, preparing to have someone present it to Liu Bei and Liu Tong.
"As long as you don't take action yourself, nothing else matters." Chen Xi handed the document to Zhuge Liang and said calmly, "Even if there is something out of line, as long as there is no evidence, it's fine."
The era of Cao Cao is over. Chen Xi wanted to give the other party a decent treatment, but at Zhuge Liang's request, considering the rules and Zhuge Liang's resistance, Chen Xi chose to give up Cao Cao. But the above words are also the bottom line requirement. Zhuge Liang can go beyond the limit, but don't leave any evidence.
"Evidence?" Li You raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen Xi. "Those who are doing the work should just do the work. Explain your own problems. Why are you making random accusations?"
Chen Xi was stunned when he heard that. You're just going to stop pretending, right? You're going to go down and solve the problem for your son. Have some shame. The resigned Cao Sikong was assassinated, and it was confirmed that it was done by someone from Xuzhou. There's nothing much to say, but aren't your words a bit too much?
"You can't do that." Chen Xi shook his head and looked at Li You very seriously. He knew very well what Li You meant. This guy was really prepared to personally take action to get a result.
"We didn't take back the Cao family's territory. We just followed the formal procedures. What's the problem?" Li You looked at Chen Xi and asked, "Just like I know that I will definitely have no descendants. If Cao Cao is alive and appointed as the Three Lords, will the Cao family have no descendants?"
"Li Wenru!" Chen Xi's voice rose eight octaves. That was not what he meant. Even if it was true, it was just like Li You had not remarried and had no children. Is it impossible? Bullshit. Li You's physical condition could at least last for another ten years. If he really wanted to, he would have done it in the first ten years. Why still nothing? Isn't it because Li You knew what he had done and having no children was the best choice!
I don’t even have descendants, so I have no worries and no weaknesses. If I have to fight, I will fight.
This is also what Chen Xi has been most worried about. If Li You chooses to settle accounts in the end, Chen Xi really can't stop it. The old emperor fought to the death and risked being reduced to ashes, and you don't even have anyone to retaliate against, what the hell!
"Zichuan, compromise is meaningless to us." Li You looked at Chen Xi calmly, and the people around him watched this scene with bated breath. This communication between Chen Xi and Li You must have a result, and this result represents the future handling plan for certain things.
"Killing Cao Cao means that I will die in the future, and so will the three idiots. What's wrong with that?" Li You said calmly, "I will die anyway. I should have committed suicide in Chang'an ten years ago. I have lived to this day without any loss. I have lived long enough to see the prosperity of the world today. What's the harm in dying?"
Li Jue and the other two were not worthy of being brought up for discussion at this place, so Li You did not say anything.
"Revenge, revenge, revenge? Damn it, have you been taken over by extremism? How many people have come to seek revenge on Cao Cao?" Chen Xi looked at Li You with anger and shouted, "Among the millions of Xuzhou people, no more than 30 actually went to Kandahar to seek revenge. Gao Yi and Hua Ben have been organizing since they retired from the army, and even with Tao Shang and others paying for it, fewer and fewer people are willing to go! As long as I control the direction of social development and continue to move forward and develop in a positive direction, time will gradually smooth everything out!"
"Sure enough, Zichuan, you know everything, you even know who organized those people behind the scenes." Zhuge Liang sighed and said, "You have always acquiesced to these things. To put it bluntly, it's because you are confident that you can smooth over these things, right?"
"Yes, revenge is not the most important thing for the living." Chen Xi looked at Zhuge Liang and said seriously, "When we first conquered Jizhou, the general and I were assassinated, but later, the assassins disappeared on their own, because people have the ability to distinguish right from wrong, at least most people can distinguish between good and bad. The positive development of society will solve many problems. In addition to revenge, the other way to resolve hatred is to let go."
"But some people can't let go." Zhuge Liang said slowly.
"Yes, some people can't let go." Chen Xi said gritting his teeth.
Chen Xi felt that he should not have let Li You teach Zhuge Liang back then. Zhuge Liang inherited some of Li You's ideas, one of which was this damn idea. Li You confessed to what he had done and knew very well what his future would be, so when he left Chang'an, he decided to have no descendants. If you want to settle accounts with me, then settle them. If you want to kill my whole family, then kill my whole family. That's what I did!
The way I will bear the consequences for this crime is to have no descendants and my entire family die. If you think this is not enough, then I have nothing to say. This is already the heaviest punishment in ancient times, and essentially, Li You has been prepared for this outcome since he started doing this.
"Then what should we do with these people?" Zhuge Liang looked at Chen Xi quietly and asked.
"Bang!" At this moment, Liu Ye kicked the door and came in. It was very rare. Since the year before last, Liu Ye had come here no more than three times.
"Are you discussing how to deal with the Cao family, or how to deal with Cao Cao, or how to deal with all such things in the future?" Liu Ye glanced at Man Chong, then looked at Li You and Zhuge Liang, and finally his eyes fell on Chen Xi, who sighed.
"Three in one." Jia Xu said concisely.
"When Cao Cao steps down, Cao Ang will temporarily take over the Cao family to see the results. As for follow-up matters, the main culprit will be executed, and his descendants will inherit the title and the fiefdom will inherit it. The non-fiefdom will continue today's temporary succession to see the results." Liu Ye directly gave his proposal, and Chen Xi looked at Liu Ye and then at Li You.
The steps were passed one by one, Li You passed it to Zhuge Liang, Liu Ye passed it to Li You, and finally they were all passed to Chen Xi together. It was a cycle, right?
"Okay." Chen Xi sighed in his heart, "Then we will continue this in the future. We will punish the main culprit, and as long as the country survives, the descendants will inherit the title and the fiefdom. The fiefdom will continue today's temporary succession and see the results."
"The Northwest Gateway cannot fall into the hands of the Central Asian families." Liu Ye confronted Chen Xi directly. For Liu Ye, it was better to have a complete break with Chen Xi. He no longer needed to consider Chen Xi's stance on some matters and completely stood on the side of the Liu royal family.
"That's not something I can guarantee." Chen Xi shook his head and glanced at Li You. Damn, the most weird combination appeared. Liu Ye stood on Li You's side and helped Li You. But it was also normal. In this matter, Li You was the descendant of the Three Idiots, and Liu Ye was a member of the royal party. It was better for the Northwest Gate to be in the hands of bad guys like the Three Idiots than in the hands of aristocratic families.
"Kong Ming and Li Yuan should have a child as soon as possible, and I will give you one-seventh of the Turan Plain." Liu Ye said coldly. He didn't care whether the three idiots died or not, whether their descendants died or not, or whether he could control himself or not. Liu Ye didn't care. He only cared whether this thing would fall into the hands of the Central Asian family.
Wang Yun is a loyal minister, a die-hard one. He does not represent the Taiyuan Wang family, nor does he represent the Three Kings. If the Northwest Gate is taken by the Three Kings, then all will be lost. So Liu Ye protects the Three Kings and stands with Li You!
I just kept silent and started updating normally, so that's it.
