Xu Chu placed Lu Meng, Huang Xu and others in the camp, and Cao Cao once looked at Lu Meng from a distance.
Seeing that Lu Meng was so young, Cao Cao had a bitter look on his face.
Wang Can is really a thief.
He actually sent such a young envoy to negotiate things.
He is really ingenious and makes it difficult for people to understand his thoughts.
Cao Cao sighed, and then returned to the tent.
He saw that the envoy sent by Wang Can was a young man, and he felt vaguely happy.
The young man was young and energetic, so he left him in the tent to dry out, just to make them agitated.
Half an hour later, Cao Cao came to Xu Chu and asked: "Zhongkang, how is Lu Meng's situation?"
Xu Chu cupped his fists and replied: "I'm not arrogant or impetuous, and I don't have any panic."
“Oh, it’s actually still stable.”
There was a look of surprise on Cao Cao's face.
It seemed that Lu Meng had come prepared, or Wang Can had asked Lu Meng, so Lu Meng acted so calmly.
From the bottom of his heart, Cao Cao didn't think Lu Meng was very powerful and didn't take him seriously.
Cao Cao thought for a while and ordered: "Wait for another hour."
However, an hour later, Xu Chu reported that Lu Meng still did not panic, which disappointed Cao Cao.
In the tent where the team rested, Lu Meng frowned, with a thoughtful look on his face.
Cao Cao had already let him stay in the camp for an hour and a half.
It stands to reason that Cao Cao would know the situation when he arrived at Cao Cao's camp.
However, Cao Cao had not made any move yet.
He obviously wanted to give him a chance.
Lu Meng saw through Cao Cao's thoughts, but he thought about it in his heart.
How to cope appropriately.
Neither Cao Cao should be allowed to think that he is too outstanding, nor Cao Cao should be allowed to think that he has no ability at all.
In this way, the task can be completed better.
To put it more clearly, Lu Meng must not only hide his clumsiness, but also adhere to the golden mean, be impartial, not too smart, and not too stupid.
If you are stupid, who will negotiate with you?
Lu Meng waited for two hours, sitting still and not sending anyone to look for Xu Chu.
Two and a half hours later, Lu Meng directly called for the soldiers and asked them to find Xu Chu.
Xu Chu stayed outside the camp, but did not show up.
After the soldiers came to report, Xu Chu immediately walked into the camp.
Entering the camp, Xu Chu said with a proud look on his face: "Lü Meng, your lord imprisoned Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan, and Huang Zhong chopped Xiahou Dun's arm.
When my lord heard you coming, he was so angry that he wanted to kill you all. , you should stay here obediently, and then you can pay your respects to my lord when he is relieved."
Lu Meng snorted and shouted: "I am an envoy sent by your lord.
Cao Cao is so rude.
No prince should have the magnanimity.
On the battlefield, even father and son are relatives and enemies.
Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren were captured because of their skill.
If you are not as good as a human being, why should you vent your anger on me?
If Cao Cao doesn't even have this kind of mind, how can he help the world?"
He looked furious and shouted loudly, which made Xu Chu stunned and unable to react immediately.
I didn’t expect that Lu Meng would be quite angry.
However, Xu Chu had no expression on his face, but he was happy in his heart.
Isn't this kind of reaction what the lord expected?
It's just that Lu Meng's words were too arrogant.

He borrowed the donkey from the slope and said, "Wait a moment, and I will report to the Lord to see if the Lord has received you."
After saying that, Xu Chu left directly.
When they arrived at Cao Cao's camp, Xu Chu explained Lu Meng's words in detail.
After hearing this, Cao Cao laughed loudly and said: "I thought Wang Can sent a microphone.
It seems that it is not only that.
Lu Meng is not very old.
He still has some courage and some ability.
He is not bad.
Bring Lu Meng.
Let’s see what Wang Can has in mind.”
"promise" Xu Chu agreed and immediately went to tell Lu Meng the news.
After a while, Lu Meng entered Cao Cao's camp alone and bowed to Cao Cao to show respect.
Cao Cao said calmly: "Wang Can, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Lu Meng glanced around and saw that Xi Zhicai was sitting in the tent, and Xu Chu was also standing at the door of the tent, and said: "How can the rest of the people know what my lord is going to say?
Please step aside, Mr.
Cao.
This matter is not trivial.
It cannot be heard by others.
If Duke Cao does not want it, I will lead the envoys and leave."
Cao Cao thought for a while, waved his hand and said: "Everyone, go out."
Xu Chu immediately said: "Lord, if he behaves inappropriately, wouldn't it?"
When Lu Meng heard this, he immediately retorted: "General Xu, please don't worry, I haven't lived enough yet, and I have no intention of assassinating Duke Cao."
In fact, when Lu Meng and Cao Cao were alone, Lu Meng definitely had a chance to assassinate Cao Cao, but there was no need to do so.
Cao Cao's camp had tens of thousands of soldiers and thousands of cavalry.
With such a huge number of soldiers, it was impossible for Lu Meng to leave even if Cao Cao was restrained.
Moreover, Lu Meng was just an envoy, not the person responsible for assassinating Cao Cao.
If Cao Cao dies, Yuan Shao takes advantage of the situation and goes south, and will definitely occupy Yanzhou.
Once such a situation occurs, Wang Can is not willing to see it, so Cao Cao cannot die.
Cao Cao waved his hand and asked Xu Chu and Xi Zhicai to leave.
After the two of them left the camp, Cao Cao said: "It's just you and me now, you can talk now."
Lu Meng smiled and asked again: "Mr.
Cao, are you really not afraid that I will assassinate you?"
Cao Cao laughed loudly and said: "Cao is also a soldier.
I can't say that he is superb in martial arts, but he has also learned martial arts and knows some means of self-protection.
It would be good if you could capture me with one move.
But if you take action , I immediately yelled, after the soldiers rushed in, this problem will become bigger.
Then it will not only be you who will be embarrassed, but also your master.
You are an envoy, not an assassin."
After a pause, Cao Cao said: "Let's get down to business, what decision did Wang Can make in sending you?"
Lu Meng looked around and asked: "My lord said that General Xiahou and General Cao have been detained in the army for a long time and are difficult to serve.
I wonder if General Cao is willing to exchange for them."
After hearing this, Cao Cao raised his eyebrows.
In his heart, he wanted to exchange Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren, but Wang Can was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and it was impossible to let them go directly, otherwise Wang Can would not have captured them.
Cao Cao's mind was spinning, but his eyes were fixed on Lu Meng.
After a long time, Cao Cao asked: "What conditions does Wang Can have?"

Lu Meng did not answer and asked again: "Master Cao, if you are sincere, we can talk about it; if you are not sincere, I will take people back.
I will ask Duke Cao if you are willing to exchange General Cao and General Xiahou."
Cao Cao scratched his head.
Is this guy really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?
He had just asked what the conditions were, and he had already expressed his willingness to exchange for the two of them.
Xiahou Yuan is one of the leaders of the Xiahou line under his command, and Cao Ren is also one of the leaders of the Cao family's generals.
These two people have a deep relationship with Cao Cao and are important figures in the Cao family.
Lu Meng looked at Cao Cao with a stubborn look on his face.
In fact, Lu Meng certainly understood that Cao Cao was willing to exchange Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren, but he did so deliberately.
This approach is to give Cao Cao a step-by-step approach, to do things that have been prepared long ago, and to make Cao Cao less wary of him.
This is Lu Meng's purpose.
Cao Cao kept staring at Lu Meng, but Lu Meng showed no reaction.
After a long time, Cao Cao sighed and said: "Okay, I am willing to exchange Cao Ren and Xia Houyuan."
He was helpless by Lu Meng, and he was really helpless.
Lu Meng was stubborn and kept silent, which frustrated Cao Cao. s: First update, it’s Monday.
