Three Kingdoms: My father-in-law is Lu Bu

Chapter 48

"Father-in-law, Wen Yuan. It's convenient for Cao Cao to host a banquet. Are you afraid?"

Ye Xiao pointed to the tents with flying banners in the distance, and looked ahead with scorching eyes. "If we are afraid, we will turn around and leave!"

Lu Bu held Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand and looked at Zhang Liao.

"Zi Ming is not afraid, I, Lu Fengxian, am not afraid of it! I have been running around the world for many years, and I really don't know how to write fear. Hahaha~"

Zhang Liao smiled, his eyes were firm, and his eyes fell on Ye Xiao in front of him. "This time it's a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire, Liao also accompanied the lord to go back and forth!"

"Hahaha! You don't have to be like this. I don't think Cao Cao would dare to do anything to us. At this moment, Cao Cao doesn't want to see the situation where the fish are dead and the net is broken! Let's go!"

Ye Xiao took the lead, and the three riders let out a long hiss, and rushed to the distance in the smoke and dust.

"The third general Lu Jun is here~"

Du Bolang, the guard at the front gate of Cao Cao's camp, shouted loudly, and then he waved his hand violently.

Two teams of infantry with spears rushed to both sides of the door, the spears in their hands shook with a bang, and they lined up in two straight lines to welcome guests.

However, this queue, which was supposed to welcome the guests, looked murderous because of the angry eyes of the Dubo and the spearmen.

Naturally, Ye Xiao would not pay attention to the opponent's might.

"Thanks for your hard work!"

Ye Xiao looked natural, Shi Shiran walked through the passage to the front of the camp.

"Wenhou arrives~"

Seeing that it was Lu Bu and the others, the servants in front of the big tent stretched out their hands to raise the curtain, revealing the dim scene inside the tent.

Under the dim light inside the tent, it was in sharp contrast with the bright sun outside, making it a bit depressing.

Ye Xiao frowned slightly. With such a way of doing things, Cao Cao made it clear that he wanted to give them the rhythm.

However, the more this happened, the more Ye Xiao couldn't let the other party succeed.

"Hahaha!"

Ye Xiao laughed loudly, stepped out like a tiger, and resolutely stepped into the tent shaped like a bloody mouth.

Entering the tent, Ye Xiao looked forward.

Cao Cao was sitting at the head of the camp tent, a few big men were sitting at the table on the left, and a few attendants were standing beside him, their figures flickering and unclear in the light.

Engage in a Hongmen banquet?

Ye Xiao couldn't help laughing, the laughter echoed in the camp, and the oppressive atmosphere eased.

Cao Cao pinched the beard on his chin, narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Ye Xiao, only to find that Ye Xiao was walking in front of Lu Bu.

"Why are you laughing? Lu Fengxian! Don't discipline your people well!"

Lu Bu cupped his hands slightly beside Ye Xiao, deliberately retreating half of his body.

"Cao Mengde, Ye Xiao is my lord, is this how you talk to the lord of an army?"

Cao Cao couldn't help but straighten his back on the cushion, Lu Bu actually recognized Ye Xiao as the master?
With such a powerful force, Lu Bu gave in as he said, and this unconventional operation made Cao Cao suspicious. Could it be Chen Gong's strategy?

"Hmph! Marquis Wen deserves to be a man with a heart for the world, he will give up the position of lord if he can, I, Cao, admire him!"

There was insinuation in Cao Cao's words, intending to find out Ye Xiao's details.

"Prime Minister Cao, my father-in-law and I are a family, and everyone is the same as the lord. You asked me to come here today, don't you really want to treat me to a drink?"

Ye Xiao went to the empty table on the right and sat down, picked up a knife, cut a piece of barbecue and started to bite.

"Bold Ye Xiao! How dare Li Zi be rude!"

In front of the table on the left, Xia Houyuan glared and pointed at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao's face darkened, not to mention the sneak attack by Cao Cao's men, how could the lords be so ignorant when talking to each other?

Ye Xiao was about to scold the other party, when Lu Bu suddenly held his halberd and locked on Xia Houyuan, the murderous look in his eyes couldn't stop overflowing.

"A villain who only knows how to attack in the back! How dare you be rude to my lord! You can't survive under my halberd!"

Xia Houyuan glared at him, but was locked on by Lu Bu Fangtian's painted halberd, and couldn't help but put his hand on the precious sword that he carried with him. At this moment, he was facing the pressure of the world's most fierce man like an ice cellar.

"enough!"

Cao Cao slapped the table, cast a gloomy glance at Xia Houyuan and Lu Bu, and finally settled on Ye Xiao.

"When you are in danger, you are not afraid to retreat my thousand troops. Ye Xiao, you are indeed qualified to be the leader of one side."

Feeling the subtle change in the atmosphere, Lu Bu put away Fang Tian's painting halberd and sat down beside Ye Xiao.

"Cao Mengde, you know the goods, my lord is the one who will be intimidated by mere Hongmen banquet?"

Ye Xiao stretched out his hand and pressed Lu Bu's hand, signaling the other party not to provoke him any more.

"The prime minister is overrated."

Cao Cao didn't agree with Ye Xiao's words, his eyes flashed brightly, looking back and forth at Ye Xiao and Lu Bu.

"Hongmen Banquet? Hahahaha."

"I, Cao Mengde, boast that there are no other heroes in the world. Today, someone said that I set up a grand banquet. If I were the emperor of Han, would it be possible that you, Ye Xiao, are the overlord of Chu?"

Cao Cao's voice fell, and the scene was silent.

Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, the two giants at the end of the Qin Dynasty when the princes from all over the world competed for the world, Cao Cao's comparison at this moment, the heart of disobedience is clearly visible.

For a moment, both Cao Cao and Ye Xiao's side fell into silence, and the atmosphere in the camp once again froze, making people unable to help but breathe harder.

"My lord, this subordinate has learned a sword dance recently, why don't you show it to Duke Cao to appreciate it today?"

Seeing the tense atmosphere, Zhang Liao raised his saber and walked to the center of the table.

Without waiting for anyone's reaction, Zhang Liao drew out his sword and danced it slowly. His dancing posture was not graceful, but it carried the majesty unique to a military sergeant.

The sword light in the tent flickered, Ye Xiao finally calmed down from Cao Cao's words, and raised his wine glass to respect from a distance.

"You and I are both Han officials, so we can't say this again. I believe that Prime Minister Cao, who wholeheartedly serves the people and the country, will definitely understand."

Cao Cao's face was dimmed under the light, and he looked at Zhang Liao who was dancing the sword, Ye Xiao who looked calm, and Lu Bu who was unscrupulous.

"Hmph! Ye Xiao, you are not afraid of me throwing a cup for you! Hundreds of knives outside the tent rushed in and chopped you into pieces?"

Zhang Liao's sword-wielding posture stopped stagnantly. Seeing Cao Cao glaring at him angrily, he slightly folded his hands and retreated to Ye Xiao's side.

"Hahaha, what the prime minister said is wrong."

Ye Xiao wiped his mouth and stretched out three fingers.

"I bet Prime Minister Cao that you won't kill us for three reasons."

Cao Cao stared fixedly at Ye Xiao, and only after a while did he burst out laughing.

"As expected of Ye Xiao, the Lord of Marquis Wen! Tell me, what three points make you so confident that I won't kill you."

Ye Xiao wiped the grease from his hands, and took the time to look at Cao Cao.

"One! Duke Cao didn't take away the weapons from the three of us before entering the account."

"Two! If Mr. Cao wanted to kill me, my father-in-law and I would probably die of poison at this moment."

"Three! Everyone in the world knows that Mr. Cao is anxious and loyal, and he is a virtuous corporal. Since he invited me to wait for a banquet, he will naturally not do anything to destroy his reputation."

Listening to Ye Xiao's analysis, Cao Cao gradually showed a bored look on his face, as if he had been seen through by Ye Xiao.

"As expected of Ye Ziming! So courageous, so insightful! Come here! Hold the lamp!"
