When Cao Cao heard Zhang Xiu's words, he couldn't help laughing. But more, it is the cunning of Zhang Xiu. When Zhang Xiuyi arrived at the gate of Xudu City, he showed all kinds of respect and praise to the people loyal to the emperor's family, which made the courtiers have a very good impression of Zhang Xiu.
Especially those who were loyal to the emperor were mostly gentry and scholars. These people mastered the public opinion. They had a good impression of Zhang Xiu and established the image of Zhang Xiu as a loyal king.
Zhang Xiu is a loyal minister.
On the other hand, Cao Cao's people have mastered all kinds of important official positions, which is enough to hold the emperor aloft. However, under Cao Cao's command, there were few real Qingliu scholars, few of them waving flags and shouting for Cao Cao.
Just so, later Cao Cao became a thief.
Because scholars are against Cao Cao.
Now, Zhang Xiu opens her mouth again, shouting long live. Although Zhang Xiu's action is suspected of flattering, the effect is immediate, which makes many celebrities satisfied with Zhang Xiu's posture.
As a Sikong, Cao Cao did not regard the emperor in his eyes.
But Zhang Xiu is respectful to the emperor.
This makes a contrast.
Seeing Zhang Xiu's intention, Cao Cao knows that Zhang Xiu is deliberately being obedient, and that he is deliberately astringent. But Liu Xie can't see it. He is even more satisfied with Zhang Xiu's success.
Liu Xie leaned forward slightly and praised: "Zhang Qing is a dignified and talented man. He is a loyal minister of the country and has made great contributions to the country by destroying Li Xi and Guo Si and killing Xiongnu. If there is Zhang Qing in the court, I will not worry! "
Brush!
Cao Cao's face changed slightly.
The little emperor's words were tantamount to hitting him in the face. In the words, Zhang Xiu is elevated, but it alludes to Cao Cao.
In fact, this is a provocative plan.
Cao Cao saw the intention of the little emperor, but he said with a smile: "Your Majesty is right. General Zhang is a rare talent with both civil and military skills. If your majesty wants to keep general Zhang in the court, it's better to issue an imperial edict to let general Zhang stay. I have no opinion with Cao Cao. "
Liu Xie smiles.
It must be impossible for Zhang Xiu to stay.
Even if Liu Xie issued an imperial edict, Zhang Xiu would not stay in Xudu. After all, Zhang Xiu was in charge of Sili area.
Liu Xie is clear about this.
His original intention is to stir up the relationship between Cao Cao and Zhang Xiu. I didn't expect that Cao Cao would come back with a word.
Zhang Xiu took over the words and said, "Your Majesty values it. Zhang Xiu can't help but be happy. But I'm not good at governing the country. However, your majesty has issued an edict. Even if Zhang Xiu is at the end of the world, he will call her back. "
"Good!"
Liu Xie gave a good cry.
In his eyes, Cao Cao sneered. Zhang Xiu is totally fooling the little emperor.
The call of bullshit will come back.
Zhang Xiu has always been the first interest, there is not enough interest, you see Zhang Xiu back.
However, Cao Cao did not break Zhang Xiu's words. As long as Zhang Xiu is not involved in him, Cao Cao will turn a blind eye, because under the current situation, he wants to watch Liu Xie Mou seize the manufacturing technology of Zhang Xiu Xuan paper.
Today, Cao Cao only needs to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
Others, don't care.
Zhang Xiu looks at the little emperor's happy appearance, but she shakes her head in her heart.
It's the little emperor after all.
It's children after all!
In other words, Liu Xie has always been a puppet. What he lacks most is the army. Hearing that Zhang Xiu said that she would return when she was called, she was very excited and felt that Zhang Xiu was a loyal minister.
Zhang Xiu continued: "Your Majesty, although I'm in a hurry, I've been given a small gift. Please accept it."
Liu Xie had an excellent impression of Zhang Xiu.
On hearing that Zhang Xiu still had a gift to send, her face was even more excited. She said with a straight face, "Ai Qing has a heart. I don't know what gift Ai Qing has brought to me when she comes to Xudu this time."
Liu Xie's heart even has expectations.
What if it's Xuan paper?
In Liu Xie's heart, he has been looking forward to it. It would be perfect if Zhang Xiu could provide the paper making technology of Xuan paper.
Zhang xiujunyi's face, solemn, not impatient, said: "the humble gift, has been delivered to the outside of the imperial city. I beg your Majesty's permission to let the soldiers carry the gifts into the hall. "
"Sure!"
Liu Xie big sleeve a brush, directly agree.
At this moment, everyone's eyes fell on Zhang Xiu.
They are looking forward to the gift.
In other words, is looking forward to what gift Zhang Xiu will send.
With Liu Xie's orders, it was not long before soldiers entered with five large boxes. Every big box, half a person's height, is extremely heavy.
These boxes, which were carried by carriages, were gifts prepared by Zhang Xiu.
Zhang Xiu has money, but not money.
He's not a money spinner.
Even if he meets the emperor, he won't give his money to charity.
Zhang Xiu went to the first big box and opened it. There were volumes of books in it. They were all bound and neatly placed in the box. Immediately after that, Zhang Xiu opened the second box, which was still a volume of books.When the two boxes were opened, Zhang Xiu arched her hand and said, "Your Majesty, among these two boxes are Xuan paper made by ministers and above, and all kinds of books and historical materials are handed down classics."
"Once upon a time, Luoyang became a fire. The numerous ancient books in Dongguan were scattered, and Wei ordered people to collect them everywhere, and then copy them all to the books. "
"The books in the two big boxes are worth a million words and countless bamboo slips."
Zhang Xiu said: "and the books here can be preserved for a long time. These classics are priceless. After the officials copied it, they sent it to the imperial court
After hearing this, Liu Xie frowned and didn't like the so-called classic books at all.
It's not worth it.
He didn't like such a gift.
But Liu Xie doesn't like it, which doesn't mean that the senior officials in the court don't like it. In particular, Yang Biao, Fu Wan, Sima Fang and others are all great Confucians and scholars. When Zhang Xiu collected many copies of Dongguan's Classics, they were all excited.
This is a priceless treasure for those in the clean stream.
So when they looked at Zhang Xiu one by one, there was a look of gratitude in their eyes.
Zhang Xiu noticed the little emperor's manner, knew that the little emperor did not like, but Zhang Xiu did not pay attention. The two boxes of books he was given were not to please the little emperor, but to attract the Qingliu scholars in the court.
This is the purpose of Zhang Xiu.
His intention has never been the little emperor.
Zhang Xiu went to the third and fourth big box and opened it again, revealing the dark coal stone inside, which were all the superior anthracite selected by Zhang Xiu.
Zhang Xiu said: "Your Majesty, this is the coal stone mined from Lushan Mountain under the rule of minister. It's smokeless, tasteless and nontoxic, and it's very effective in expelling cold. It's cold in winter. I'd like to take this coal and stone to express my heart. Please accept it. "
"Zhang Qing has a heart."
Liu Xie answered with a smile.
The look on his face was wilting. He couldn't get up with the excitement he had just had.
Because Zhang Xiu didn't come up with what he wanted.
Cao Cao saw Liu Xie's expression in his eyes, and his heart was full of joy. The little emperor often suppressed him with great righteousness. Although the little emperor did not dare to fight with Cao Cao openly, he often wanted to express his ideas.
This is what Cao Cao does not like.
Today, the little emperor often eat shriveled, Cao Cao see happy.
Cao Cao knows that Zhang Xiu is an Iron Rooster. Such people, how can they give good things to Liu Xie.
It's just perfunctory.
Zhang Xiu didn't care about Liu Xie's mind, once again opened the fifth box.
This is the last bite.
