At the same time, Jingzhou.

After capturing Jiaozhou, Cao Cao left two generals, Li Dian and Le Jin, to guard Jiaozhou with an army of 100,000, while he led the remaining army to stop in Jingzhou.

At this moment, Bai Feng's secret report was delivered.

Cao Cao's expression changed slightly.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Cao called Jia Xu and Cheng Yu to his study.

"King Wei, I wonder why the king of Wei summoned us two?"

After Cheng Yu saw Cao Cao, he immediately said respectfully.

Cao Cao casually handed the letter Bai Feng sent to him to the two of them and said:

"We just took Jiaozhou yesterday, but Sun Quan and Liu Bei fled in panic."

"Now, Mr. Bai has sent a message."

Jia Xu was still squinting his eyes slightly at first, but his eyes suddenly widened after seeing Bai Feng's letter.

Cheng Yu on the side also looked shocked.

Ascend to the throne?

For the emperor? !

Let Liu Xie give in? !

this……

Bai Feng really dares to say this!

Nowadays, many people know that Cao Cao has this idea, but who dares to say it?

But thinking about it carefully, I am afraid that only Bai Feng dared to say this first.

"What do you two think?"

Cao Cao looked at the two of them with some amusement.

Obviously, he was very moved by Bai Feng's proposal.

In fact, even if Bai Feng didn't say it, he still had this idea.

But now that there are people supporting it, Cao Cao naturally thinks so even more.

However, now it is better to listen to the opinions of these two counselors under his command.

Ascending the throne is no small matter.

How did Yuan Shu die back then?

Just because of ascending the throne!

Although Cao Cao is now a being that ten thousand Yuan Shu cannot compare to.

But Cao Cao was still a little worried.

Cao Cao's troops, horses, and territory covered the entire Central Plains.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the entire Central Plains belongs to the Cao family.

However, the people may not agree.

The nobles would certainly not agree.

Especially several big gentry clans.

Xun family!

The Xun family would definitely be the first to disagree!

Xun You and Xun Yu were so loyal to the Han Dynasty. If Bai Feng hadn't persuaded them back then, they would have criticized them verbally and writtenly for becoming king.

But being called emperor is different from being called king.

It is acceptable to be called king, but not necessarily emperor!

Cao Cao didn't want to think that he and his Xun Lingjun had just relaxed for such a short time, but now they would be in trouble because of this kind of thing.

Moreover, it may even get to the point where the two sides are at odds with each other.

What's more, the Xun family is a big family. If the Xun family doesn't agree, other noble families may not agree either.

There are too many things interspersed in the middle.

After Cheng Yu thought for a long time, he finally said:

"I think it depends on King Wei's opinion."

"The King of Wei wants to proclaim himself emperor, and no one can stop the King of Wei."

"Even if I inform the emperor of the day, the emperor will definitely abdicate to King Wei."

"Emperor, there is no other choice."

Upon seeing this, Jia Xu continued:

"But what about the common people? What about the nobles?"

"If you don't get their support and want to become emperor, I'm afraid you will have to follow in Yuan Shu's footsteps."

"When the time comes, the world situation that has finally been stabilized will probably be in chaos again."

Cheng Yu shook his head and said:

"I don't know about the nobles, but the common people may agree."

"Even if there are voices of opposition, the voices of support will never be suppressed."

Cao Cao couldn't help being slightly stunned when he heard this:

"Why?"

In his impression, Cheng Yu didn't seem like someone who could speak so clearly.

What's more, in this situation of great right and wrong, he dared not make any hasty conclusions.

But now, what makes Cheng Yu so confident?

Cheng Yu continued:

"The King of Wei has been fighting in the past few days, but I have seen it in Hanzhong and other cities."

"Now, thanks to Mr. Bai's efforts, Hanzhong is almost as prosperous as Xuchang."

"Not only that, other cities are also steadily improving due to Hanzhong's economic and trade reasons."

"It is not an exaggeration to say that the lives of the people today are thousands of times more prosperous than when the Han Dynasty was founded!"

"Who would have thought that the current situation in the world has just ended?"

"What's more, the separation of the princes before has not ended yet."

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment:

"Is this still happening?"

"Let me tell you."

Cheng Yu immediately spoke eloquently, telling Cao Cao everything he saw and heard in Hanzhong and other cities he passed along the way.

In fact, it is nothing more than one word: rich.

Nowadays, people no longer have to worry about food.

but?

The word "rich" has become what people are pursuing now.

Human desires are endless.

After getting enough food and clothing, it is natural to think about how to eat well and dress well.

Nowadays, the businesses developed by Bai Feng can effectively solve this problem.

As a result, many small cities are difficult to grow food due to terrain reasons, but they have gained huge benefits from trade.

Common people now have a lot of money in their hands.

The national power of the entire Wei Dynasty was far superior to Jiangdong and Jingzhou before it.

It is definitely not an exaggeration to say that it is far better than it was a hundred years ago, or even the Han Dynasty two or three hundred years ago.

Cao Cao's eyes suddenly widened when he heard this.

He never expected that Bai Feng would make such earth-shaking changes to the Wei Dynasty during the days when he came to the Southern Expedition!

"As expected of Mr. Bai!"

At this time, Jia Xu couldn't help but admire.

Originally, Cheng Yu and Jia Xu didn't like Bai Feng very much.

In fact, it was simply because Bai Feng came from a poor family. Not only that, Bai Feng also killed the nobles.

All these made the two of them very disgusted with Bai Feng, even to the point of disgust.

But after so long, after Bai Feng showed all his talents except military, they had already given in.

Jia Xu couldn't help but take a breath of air and said:

"King Wei, if that's the case, then there's no need to worry."

"As long as the common people support it, it doesn't matter even if more than half of the nobles don't support it."

"It is not impossible for the Han Dynasty to stand on its own feet!"

After seeing that the two of them had unified their opinions, Cao Cao waved his hand and motioned for the two of them to go down.

At this time, Cao Cao already knew what was going on.

This time should be a good time to proclaim yourself emperor!

It was just a good opportunity to decide on the marriage between Jie'er and Bai Feng while he was proclaimed emperor.

Because of the Southern Expedition, the marriage was postponed again.

Now it seems that Bai Feng must quickly be included in his family!

If this person is used well, he will definitely be a top talent who can prosper the entire Wei Dynasty.

If it's not used properly, that's bad.

Even if Bai Feng wants to stand on his own feet, Cao Cao feels that he may not be able to compete with him.

This was the first time Cao Cao felt frustrated.

Bai Feng brought him too many surprises.
