Three Kingdoms: Jiuyuan Tiger

Chapter 288 Cao Cao assassinates Dong
Dong Zhuo shook his head after hearing this, and said, "The truth is, what do you think of Truth's character and ability?"

Cao Cao replied: "The prime minister manages the government like Xiao He, and manages the army like Han Xin. Since the founding of the country, has there ever been such a hero as the prime minister?"

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly after hearing this and said, "Hahaha, every time I hear Meng De talk, I am very happy in my heart. But there is one thing I don't know about the truth, so please ask Meng De to clarify."

Cao Cao cupped his hands and said, "Please show me, Xiangguo!"

Dong Zhuo said, "I know that those court officials respect and flatter him on the surface, but they hate him so much in their hearts that they wish they could cut off his head and hang them in front of the palace gate!"

Cao Cao was terrified when he heard this, and he forced himself to say calmly: "Xiangguo is serious. Although some pedantic people think so, most of the courtiers still respect Xiangguo!"

After hearing this, Dong Zhuo said angrily: "Respect? Where does the respect come from? Yesterday, Wang Yun's birthday, I didn't even receive any invitations at all. It really made me furious! Could it be that Wang Yun said something shameful at the banquet, so why? Didn't you invite the truth?"

Hearing this, Cao Cao cupped his hands and said, "Xiangguo calm down, Cao Cao went to Wang Zhonglang's birthday banquet yesterday without invitation, presumably Xiangguo already knew about it."

Dong Zhuo nodded after hearing this: "Well, I heard the truth about this matter from Wen You."

Cao Cao secretly looked at Dong Zhuo's expression, and after finding nothing abnormal, Cao Cao was relieved.

Cao Cao clasped his hands and said, "Xiangguo, Cao Cao is going without invitation. He intends to go to investigate information on behalf of Xiangguo. He went in, but not long after the banquet started, Cao was forked out by Wang Yun's order. embarrassing."

Dong Zhuo asked in confusion: "Why is this? Since you were allowed in, why did you order someone to fork you out?"

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Xiangguo didn't know something. During the meeting, someone whispered bad things about Xiangguo, so that Cao heard it. Cao was furious immediately. Instead of reasoning, he almost started to fight. That's why Wang Yun's guards ordered him to kill him." Out of the house."

Dong Zhuo patted Cao Cao on the shoulder: "Meng De has a heart! These ministers and ministers are really nothing. They sit on the court salary, but they do nothing all day long. They are not as good as the porcupine dogs raised in the people's homes! Meng De, who is saying this behind his back? If you speak badly about the Prime Minister, you can just say it, and the truth is up to you, so I will send someone to steal his house to vent your anger on you!"

Cao Cao cupped his hands and said, "Xiangguo calm down! That man is just a small official, and Cao Cao has never known his name. Such a low-ranking person, why should Xiangguo be angry with him?"

Dong Zhuo shook his head and said: "No! When you go to court tomorrow, you can point out this person, and show him the truth!"

Cao Cao cupped his hands and said, "No! Cao has written it down, thank you Xiangguo!"

Dong Zhuo said, "Meng De, it's not too early now. I ordered someone to prepare the food and drink, so you can take a rest here. I go to take a rest for a while. When the food and wine are ready, you and I have a drink together!"

Cao Cao cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Xiangguo! Please, Xiangguo!"

After Dong Zhuo entered the inner room to rest, Cao Cao stared intently at Dong Zhuo lying on the bed, and quietly touched the Seven Star Knife in his arms.

Not long after, Dong Zhuo's snoring sounded, Cao Cao held the Seven Star Saber tightly, and slowly approached Dong Zhuo.

At this time, there were only Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo in the huge room.

Cao Cao held his breath and tiptoed to Dong Zhuo's bed.

"Xiangguo?" Cao Cao tentatively asked.

But the only response to Cao Cao was Dong Zhuo's thunderous snoring.

Cao Cao slowly pulled the Seven Star Knife out of its sheath, and wanted to stab Dong Zhuo in the heart.

But at this moment, Dong Zhuo, who was lying on his back, was suddenly awakened by the light in the bronze mirror. He sat up in a jiggle, and shouted loudly, "What is Meng De doing?"

Hearing Dong Zhuo's call, the armored soldiers guarding the door rushed into the room and held Cao Cao up with knives and guns. When Dong Zhuo gave an order, they cut Cao Cao into pieces.

Cao Cao was sweating profusely, and fell to his knees directly: "Report to Xiangguo, Cao Cao got a peerless sword a few days ago, and Cao Cao came here this time to present this precious sword to Xiangguo. Cao Cao wanted to quietly put the sword on the ground. Xiangguo gave Xiangguo a surprise before going to bed, but never thought that it would disturb Xiangguo's dream, please punish Xiangguo!"

Dong Zhuo wiped the sweat off his head after hearing this: "Hey, Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde, you scared the truth to death! The truth thought you were going to assassinate me! It's okay, it's okay, you all go down!"

"No!" A group of soldiers left with their hands in their hands.

Cao Cao hurriedly said: "What did Xiangguo say? Xiangguo's kindness to Cao is as great as a mountain. How dare Cao hold malicious intentions towards Xiangguo?"

Dong Zhuo nodded with a smile: "That's true. There are too many people in this world who want the head of the truth, so the truth is suspicious, and I hope Mengde is not to blame!"

Cao Cao cupped his hands and said, "Of course Cao knows about this matter, and Xiangguo doesn't need to say anything."

Immediately afterwards, Cao Cao demonstrated the sharpness of the Seven Star Knife for Dong Zhuo, splitting the bronze mirror in front of Dong Zhuo's bed in two with one knife.

Dong Zhuo was overjoyed after seeing it, and called "Bao Dao" directly.

Afterwards, Cao Cao bit the bullet and greeted Dong Zhuo with fear.

At this moment, Cao Cao felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, for fear that he might say something wrong that would arouse Dong Zhuo's vigilance.

But Cao Cao also knew that at this juncture, he must not panic, once the slightest flaw was revealed, it would be the end of eternal doom!

It wasn't until the sound came that Cao Cao received an amnesty.

"Report to Prime Minister, General Cao Ning is here!"

After Cao Cao heard this, he said hastily: "Xiangguo, since General Cao has something to ask for, then Cao Cao will leave first!"

Dong Zhuo shook his head and said, "No! Truth has ordered people to prepare food and drinks, so I have to eat before leaving!"

Cao Cao cupped his hands and said: "Xiangguo, Cao Cao and General Cao had a gap in the past, so it is inconvenient to stay here for a long time, and Cao Cao will come to visit Xiangguo later!"

Dong Zhuo also knew that Cao Ning looked down on Cao Cao, so he didn't force Cao Cao to stay.

Dong Zhuo said, "Okay, then Mengde will come to drink again tonight!"

Cao Cao cupped his hands and said, "No! Then Cao will retire first!"

Dong Zhuo nodded and said, "Go! Someone, send Meng De off for the truth!"

When Cao Cao was walking out, he happened to pass by Cao Ning.

Cao Ning's resentful eyes lingered on Cao Cao all the time, but Cao Cao turned a blind eye and left in a hurry.

After leaving Dong Zhuo's mansion, Cao Cao didn't dare to stay for a moment, he didn't even bother to go home, and directly left Luoyang City with Jing Si and his party.

The Xiliang army guarding the city also knew that Cao Cao was deeply trusted by Dong Zhuo, so they let Cao Cao leave the city without Dong Zhuo's documents.

In this way, Cao Cao escaped from Luoyang City without any danger.

After Cao Ning came to Dong Zhuo's house, he directly saluted Dong Zhuo and said, "Greetings to foster father!"

Dong Zhuo patted Cao Ning's shoulder with a smile: "There is no need to be polite, Ning'er, are you back from leading the army from Xiliang?"

Cao Ning replied: "Exactly! This time the boy returned to Xiliang and brought back a total of [-] cavalry."

Dong Zhuo said happily after hearing this: "Good! Good!"

Cao Ning asked: "Father, what is Cao Cao doing here?"

　One more!Thank you brother Yazi for the reward!Thank you brother Ai Lie for the reward!Fist!
