"Sigh …"
"Yuanlong is dead, and the dead are the most important.
"But the dead cannot be revived. No matter how sad we are, we should focus on the future."
At this point, two drops of tears fell from Cao Cao's face.
"Bai Feng repeatedly offered amazing strategies at Red Cliff, allowing our army to avoid Zhou Yu's vicious schemes. He also discovered Liu Bei's abnormality and protected Xuchang.
"Indeed, I can't bear to blame him!"
After saying this, Cao Cao walked in front of Bai Feng and held up the Green Blade.
"Since such a thing happened, I cannot absolve myself from the blame. I am also at fault.
"How do I have the face to face the various officials and Ministers?!"
After saying that, Cao Cao actually picked up the Qingming Sword and raised it toward his head.
Seeing this, how could the civil and military officials hold back? They hurriedly ran forward.
"Prime Minister, you must not do this!"
"Prime Minister's precious body cannot be like this!"
"Prime Minister is the soul of our army. If something happens to Prime Minister, we will be ashamed!"
"…"
Hearing the advice of the officials, Cao Cao sighed and took off his hair. With a light slash of the Green Blade, he cut off a lock of hair.
"Since my beloved officials have said so …"
"In order to punish myself for my mismanagement, I will cut off this hair to appease Yuanlong's spirit in heaven!"
Hearing this, everyone instantly understood.
How was the Prime Minister trying to punish Bai Feng?
So all this time was just an act!
But since the Prime Minister had said this, the officials had nothing to say. They could only silently bow.
"Prime Minister is righteous!"
Cao Cao saw this and handed the Green Blade back to Bai Feng. He slowly walked into the hall and stood with his hands behind his back.
"Bury Yuanlong's corpse properly and confer upon him a noble title!"
"As for Bai Feng, since he made such a huge mistake, there is no need for him to contribute to Red Cliff. It can be said that his merits offset his faults."
"However, Bai Feng has contributed to Xuchang. I have also seen this.
"I have decided to give Bai Feng the position of Military Advisor and lead all the civil officials!"
After saying that, Cao Cao shed two more tears.
"Yuan Long! Have a safe journey! "
After saying that, Cao Cao turned around and left the hall.
Ministers were in an uproar!
It was too sudden!
Originally, the nobles had thought that Bai Feng's merits and demerits would offset each other, and that they would not owe each other anything.
However, he didn't expect that the Prime Minister would mention Bai Feng's two meritorious deeds and use this opportunity to promote him to the position of military advisor!
With this, it would be very difficult for the landowning households to shake Bai Feng's position!
Even if they were to plot against Bai Feng in the future, they would have to consider the Prime Minister first!
What is a military advisor?
He was the leader of thousands of strategists!
Just like Wolong's position in Liu Bei's heart!
Other than Cao Cao, Bai Feng's official position was higher than anyone else's!
This was the true meaning of being below only one person and above tens of thousands!
What? And the Son of Heaven?
The current Emperor is still called the Emperor?
Seeing that Cao Cao had made up his mind and was about to behead Chen Deng to comfort him, the Ministers couldn't say anything else. They could only salute and leave the hall slowly.
"Ding! The mission of obtaining the position of military advisor is completed. You have obtained the mission reward! "
At this moment, a cold, robotic female voice suddenly sounded in Bai Feng's mind.
Bai Feng smiled slightly. Although it was a little unexpected, this result was the best for him.
However, Cao Chun, Xun You, and Cao Pi behind Bai Feng widened their eyes and couldn't believe what had just happened.
Suddenly.
It was too sudden!
However, it could only be said that it was unexpected and reasonable.
This time, Cao Cao was so protective of Bai Feng and even promoted Bai Feng to the position of military advisor.
Why? It was because Bai Feng killed Chen Deng this time to show off to the landowning households.
It was mainly to show Cao Cao his position!
Cao Cao had always been dissatisfied with the huge power of the landowning households, but he had no way to deal with them.
However, Bai Feng's move directly told Cao Cao:
I can help you do it. I, Bai Feng, am Cao Cao's man. No landowning households can win me over!
If you want to deal with the landowning households, I, Bai Feng, will help you!
Such a talented, capable, and loyal person, Cao Cao would be a fool if he didn't use him.
Cao Pi was shocked by his father's decisive decision and shook his head repeatedly.
If it were him, would he be able to make such a wonderful performance to convince everyone and achieve his goal?
Xun You was biased towards Bai Feng in this matter.
Although Xun You was also a landowning household, the Xun Family had always been different from other landowning households.
The Xun Family only served the Emperor and had nothing to do with other landowning households!
Now it seemed that compared to other landowning households who only received a salary but didn't serve the country, the Xun Family was like a mediocre person.
They couldn't compare to Bai Feng at all, who had done many miraculous deeds to protect the country!
As for the straightforward Cao Chun, his eyes widened. After all the civil and military officials had dispersed, he hurriedly approached Bai Feng and said, "What are you talking about?
"Sir! You are now a military counselor! "
"Hahahaha, great! I thought you were going to die this time! "
"Sir, let me tell you. I have thought about it. If the Prime Minister wants to kill you, I will say that I didn't stop him in time and will be guilty."
"Maybe you can save your life this way! Big Brother won't kill me! "
Hearing this, Bai Feng made a shushing gesture and then slowly walked out of the hall with a smile on his face.
After seeing that no one was around, Bai Feng whispered indifferently:
"Zihe, have you ever thought about what if the Prime Minister insists?"
"Then aren't you going to die with me?"
Cao Chun laughed and said:
"If Big Brother is really so cruel and wants to die with you, I, Cao Zihe, won't have lived in vain!"
Seeing that Cao Chun could actually say this, Bai Feng was quite gratified.
Although Cao Chun was as simple-minded as Cao Ren, he was a friend that was hard to come by.
A gentleman would die for his bosom friend. This was not only true for civil officials, but also for military officials like Cao Chun and Cao Ren!
"Sir, what are you thinking about? Since there is such great news, why don't we hurry up and have a drink? "
Cao Chun laughed and patted Bai Feng on the shoulder:
"Zixiao is waiting for us. He said that he wants to treat us to a drink."
"Sir, you don't know that Zixiao is usually very stingy!"
"He has some aged wine. I have begged him for several months, but he is not willing to share it with me. When he heard that you are guarding Xuchang, he is actually willing to bring it out."
"We have to take advantage of him!"
When Bai Feng saw that Cao Chun, the commander of the Ferocious Cavalry, was cheering like a child, he could not help but laugh:
"Okay, then let's go take advantage of him."
"Magnanimous! Let's go! "
Cao Chun hugged Bai Feng and then smiled at Li Yuanba who was behind Bai Feng:
"Brother Yuanba, you go too. Let me tell you, this osmanthus wine is very fragrant …"
Li Yuanba hurriedly waved his hand:
"I, I can't drink. I am afraid that I will go crazy after drinking."
Cao Chun frowned slightly and said:
"What are you afraid of? Do you think you can beat Sir?"
Li Yuanba shook his head:
