The news of Bai Feng rewarding the army reached Xuchang.
"I didn't expect Mr. Bai to be so considerate. It's the Wei Kingdom's fortune to have Mr. Bai!"
Bai Feng was Cao Cao's soulmate. He considered everything from Cao Cao's point of view.
Everything was done beautifully. Bai Feng won Cao Cao's heart.
Bai Feng was admitted to the army in the name of Cao Cao. This way, the army would be even more grateful to Cao Cao.
They would also not forget the generals who led them to battle.
The most important thing was that Bai Feng had never overdone anything.
"Xun Yu, this is Mr. Bai's letter from Hanzhong. Take a look!"
Xun Yu took the secret letter from Cao Cao and praised him in his heart.
If it were him, he would not be able to do it as perfectly as Bai Feng.
"Prime Minister, I suggest that the army hold a banquet in response to Mr. Bai's call. We can't ignore Mr. Bai's good intentions."
"You and I have the same idea. I also think that we should hold a banquet for the officials."
"This will clear a lot of obstacles for Mr. Bai and clarify Mr. Bai's concerns."
"It's the Wei Kingdom's fortune to have such a great talent like Mr. Bai."
Cao Cao was overjoyed when he heard this. Bai Feng would not do such a thing for no reason.
Cao Cao was quite familiar with Bai Feng's temperament.
Compared to Bai Feng rewarding the army in his name, Cao Cao was more concerned about the surprise Bai Feng had given him.
Bai Feng was never one to wake up early if there were no benefits. To be able to make a miser like Bai Feng invite the army to a banquet …
The only thing he was sure of was that Bai Feng had made a fortune.
Obviously, Bai Feng had a big gift for him. Cao Cao was even more delighted.
"Pass down my orders. Tonight, all the officials will not return until they are drunk. Hahahaha …"
Cao Cao even personally hosted the entire process of the banquet for the officials.
The specific details were left to Xun Yu to arrange.
"I'll go down now …"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xun Yu left the hall, leaving Cao Cao alone.
…
Tonight, Xuchang City was brightly lit. Every household was decorated with lanterns and colored banners.
Others might think that it was some kind of big festival.
None of the commoners knew what kind of big day it was.
The government actually paid for every household to be decorated with lanterns and streamers.
It was a noisy celebration with great fanfare.
Everyone only knew that this was a mission permitted and assigned by the government.
However, no one knew that this was the path that Cao Cao had paved for Xu Chen.
Cao Cao did everything so that Bai Feng could return to Xu Chang smoothly.
To govern a country, there must be military and civil generals.
However, most of the military generals were reckless and brave. Many of them had already disregarded life and death after years of fighting on the battlefield.
However, they knew nothing about the intrigue and deception of the officialdom.
In ancient times, many meritorious officials died in the officialdom.
To a large extent, it had to do with their personalities.
However, what Cao Cao did was to try his best to create a safe path for these soldiers who had fought for the country.
This was the strategy and mentality that a leader of a country had to have.
He definitely could not let people who had dedicated their lives to the country end up in such an indignant state.
However, he definitely could not let them do whatever they wanted.
To a large extent, the civil officials and the five officials restricted and supervised each other.
Both were indispensable.
Great generals were needed for expeditions.
On the other hand, the army, horses, and provisions required the silent cooperation of great writers.
The two complemented each other.
However, to Cao Cao, Bai Feng was the only one who could stop Cao Cao. He was the equivalent of a thousand soldiers, horses, and many scholars and generals.
This was also why Cao Cao wanted to put up lanterns and decorations to dispel everyone's resentment towards Bai Feng.
Because many people envied Bai Feng's treatment.
They were jealous of Bai Feng's talent.
This envy and jealousy could become a sharp weapon to kill Bai Feng in the future.
This was something that Cao Cao absolutely could not allow to happen.
"Good news came from the frontline. The army led by Cao Ren has forced Xinye and is pointing their swords at Jingzhou.
"Today, seven or eight countries have integrated into the Wei Kingdom. Let's toast to this moment."
It recorded this extraordinary moment.
With that, Cao Cao walked down from the tall banquet stage.
A cup of warm wine slowly swirled in his hand.
At this moment, the bright moon was hanging in the sky. The entire Xu Chang was joyous and harmonious.
"Prime Minister, why don't you use this beautiful scenery to recite a poem to commemorate this extraordinary moment?"
Many civil officials also began to agree with Xun Yu's suggestion.
"Let's invite Wei Emperor to compose a poem. Let's invite the King to compose a poem …"
The sound spread throughout the entire Xu Chang City.
The originally quiet night became noisy at this moment.
Cao Cao closed his eyes tightly and felt the warm wind blowing gently on his face.
At this moment, Cao Cao was immersed in endless reverie.
It was as if this was the sky and this was the earth.
"To think that it has been decades since I, Cao Cao, started the war. I have gathered all the heroes of the world here and achieved hegemony."
"My achievements today are inseparable from everyone's struggle. Since everyone insists that I recite a poem to commemorate this great moment, how can I win everyone's hearts?"
After saying these words, Cao Cao picked up a pot of Du Kang wine and drank it in one gulp.
The two pairs of shoes that were originally on his feet were also kicked away.
At this moment, Cao Cao was a little drunk. He felt the gentle breeze blowing on his short sword and felt endless poetry in his heart.
When the crowd saw that Cao Cao had closed the curtain, no one stepped forward to interrupt.
This was because everyone knew that the prime minister was brewing his emotions.
He was searching for a special feeling. At this moment, if anyone were to get the prime minister's thoughts.
There would only be one result, and that was to die without a burial place.
"Hahahaha …"
Cao Cao suddenly laughed, making the people around him tremble in fear.
No one knew why Cao Cao was laughing.
"To wine and song, life is short!
For example, the morning dew, the passing days are bitter.
Generosity, unforgettable sorrow.
How to solve the sorrow? Only Du Kang.
Blue and green collar, my heart is long.
But for the sake of the king, I pondered until today.
The deer's cry, eating the apples of the wild.
I have guests, playing the flute and blowing the sheng.
Bright as the moon, when can it be cleared?
Sorrow comes from within, unbreakable.
Crossing the border, wasting each other's existence.
The contract is broad, the heart is full of old kindness.
The moon is bright, the stars are sparse, the crows fly south.
Circling the tree three times, where can I lean on?
The mountain is not too high, the sea is not too deep.
The duke of Zhou feeds, the world returns to his heart. "
Everyone clapped and cheered. No one would have thought that Cao Cao's impromptu poem would be recited by the world.
It even became an eternal classic.
It was recorded in the textbooks of primary and secondary schools.
"Thank you for your help, everyone. Our wills are as strong as a fortress, united against the outside world, cheers to unifying the world."
"Our wills are as strong as a fortress, unifying the world …"
"Our wills are as strong as a fortress, unifying the world …"
"Our wills are as strong as a fortress, unifying the world …"
"Long live the prime minister, long live the prime minister, long live the prime minister …"
