Three Kingdoms: The rebellion was eavesdropped by Cao Cao

Chapter 222 Boss Cao is out of money!
the next day!Cao Su entered the palace early and went to court!

However, he was surprised to find that as long as he passed by, there was no one who did not stare at him.

And the expressions are different, some people have indignation in their eyes, some people have jealousy in their eyes, and some people have admiration in their eyes.

Not enough people are curious, as if they saw a strangely dressed freak in the crowd.

Cao Su was also speechless. For a while, he wondered if his face had been filled with rice or someone had drawn a grimace on it.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind, "Second Lord?"

Cao Su was slightly taken aback, and turned his head to see that Guo Jia and Xun Yu were walking towards him with the board in their hands, with a look of surprise on their faces that they had never seen before.

Seeing this, Cao Su immediately replied, "I have met Mr. Xun and Mr. Guo!"

"Oh my god! It's really you, second lord!" Guo Jia was astonished after confirming that it was Cao Su, "As far as I know, this is the first time you have come to the morning court, right?"

Cao Su couldn't help touching the tip of his nose, and smiled awkwardly, "It should be... yes?"

"Haha! I said why I didn't hear the rooster crowing suddenly today. It turns out that something strange happened today!"

Guo Jia laughed out loud after hearing this, and his expression became particularly excited.

Cao Cao was puzzled, this is not like Guo Jia's usual style, how could he be so frivolous?

But when he smelled the alcohol in Guo Jia's breath, he immediately understood.

Ganqing went drinking again last night. Although he doesn't care about worldly affairs, he also knows that Guo Jia is a drunkard. He gets drunk almost every day and night, and no one can persuade him.

[Everyone in the world says that Guo Fengxiao is jealous of talents, with this way of drinking, if he can really live a long life, it will be a ghost! 】

[Especially now that the wine-making technology is not mature at all, drinking it is even more harmful to the body, it seems that it is time to find an opportunity to promote Moutai! 】

[Otherwise, if this continues, Guo Jia will die suddenly sooner or later! 】

Although Guo Jia's death helped him send Cao Cao away, he still couldn't bear to let Cao Su watch him die slowly because of bad habits!
Then Cao Su changed the subject and asked, "My lords, I have one thing that I don't understand. Why do everyone I pass by look at me when I come here from the White Horse Gate? Is there something dirty on my face?"

However, Xun Yu explained with a smile, "There is no dirt on the face of the second lord, it's just because the second lord has never been to the early court, and because... er... because you saved Her Highness the Queen and the Queen in the harem a few days ago." The story of Concubine Dong Gui has already spread in the palace, so it is not uncommon for many ministers to be curious about you!"

The corner of Cao Su's mouth twitched, he didn't expect it to be because of this reason.

No wonder some people looked at him with hostility in their eyes, are they still afraid that he would rush over and dig the corner of their queen?

Anyone!
But since they are all here, does he, Cao Su, still care about other people's opinions?

What's wrong with him? It's none of his business?
Even if everyone in the world thinks that Cao Su is a prodigal son who only seeks a wife, so what?Can we have less meat?
Cao Su figured it out before coming here, anyway, he is not from the same world as these people, so why bother with their eyes!
Everyone is drunk and I am alone!The whole world is turbid and I am alone!
It's so pissy!
However, after he howled righteously in his heart for a long time, he turned around and continued to ask:
"Lord Xun, I see that all the ministers who came to the court today have ashen faces and dignified expressions, but what happened?"

Xun Yu was taken aback, "Second Master, don't you know?"

Cao Su spread out his hands after hearing this, his mind was full of question marks, "Do I have to know?"

Xun Yu saw that he didn't look like he was pretending, and then he sighed and explained, "Oh, it's not because of Xuzhou's affairs, because my lord lost Xuzhou, after returning, he ordered the government to rectify, and asked these ministers and ministers In the early days, give a set of plans for governing the country!"

"What plan? Govern the country?"

Hearing this, the doubts in Cao Su's eyes deepened.

Xun Yu glanced at him and continued to explain, "Second Master, do you still remember that before Xuzhou built the canal, the Lord mobilized a large amount of food from the treasury, and now that Xuzhou is lost, the treasury has suffered a huge loss. Yuan Shao goes to war, and the consequences are disastrous!"

After he finished speaking, Guo Jia continued to say:

"That's why my lord wants to take advantage of Yuan Shao's troubles, to rectify the country, cultivate and thrive, and make full preparations before the battle with Yuan Shao comes!"

Hearing this, Cao Su understood what was going on!
To put it simply!That is, Boss Cao has no money to fight!
Forcing these ministers and ministers to find ways to make money and food!
Immediately Cao Su asked, "Can the two adults have a solution?"

Xun Yu and Guo Jia looked at each other and shook their heads!

"Now Yuan Shao is pressing every step of the way. It will take three to five years at most, or one or two years at least. He will inevitably go to war. If he wants to raise enough food and elite soldiers in such a short period of time, he has to increase land taxes and forcefully arrest the strong men!"

"How does this work?"

Cao Su frowned slightly, "The taxes in Xuchang City are already ridiculously high, if they increase, will the common people still be able to survive?"

After hearing this, Xun Yu sighed helplessly, "Oh, the war is tight, there is no way to do it, presumably when the court today, those old ministers will definitely make such remonstrance, and the lord and the emperor will not object!"

Cao Su's heart sank slightly, and he felt that Xun Yu's words were not without reason!
Since ancient times, as long as the war is tight, the taxation of the DPRK and China will increase without a bottom line!
It seems that people are fighting wars, but they are actually burning money!
Now Boss Cao has a combined population of nearly one million in these places. Even if there is food like sweet potatoes, it may be too much for a real war!
Thinking of this, Cao Su turned to Xun Yu and Guo Jia and asked:

"Will the two adults also give advice later?"

Xun Yu and Guo Jia were taken aback, and asked in doubt, "Second Master, do you have a better way?"

"Have!"

It is comfortable to talk to cleverness, Cao Su immediately nodded and said, "It's just that it's my first time to go to court, and the two lords are full of promises in front of your majesty and elder brother. I need the support of the two lords!"

Xun Yu and Guo Jia's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this, and they quickly bowed to Cao Su!
"The second lord's words are serious! Our words are insignificant, but if the second lord's advice is yours, I will definitely support you!"

Cao Su also returned the gift, "Then I will thank you, my lords!"

When Xun Yu wanted to continue asking Cao Su what he could do, there was commotion behind the crowd!

I saw Cao Cao walking over with a green sword in his hand, not happy or angry, and the other ministers bowed their heads to make way, not daring to look at him at all!
But when Cao Cao walked in front of Cao Su, his face showed a look of joy, and he laughed loudly:
"Haha! My dear brother! Brother Wei is really happy that you can come to the morning court!"
