Go crazy, my court is all treacherous

Chapter 116

Cao Cao's eyes were deep, and he sighed softly.

"If it's not hopeless, I really don't want to take this step."

"Lord, we must not miss this opportunity."

Guo Jia was also anxious.

"How can I not know the sincerity of my lord? It's a pity that this court is so disappointing. It has long ceased to be governed by the Great Zhou Sage Emperor in the past."

"Otherwise, there are only three reasons why the emperor summoned my lord this time."

"The first is to test whether the lord has disobedience, and the second is to ask the lord to go to Yanzhou to mobilize troops to conquer Zhu Di."

"What about three?"

Cao Cao nodded and asked.

"Kill the lord."

Guo Jia's every word sounded like a thunderous blow to Cao Cao's ears.

"My lord, each of these three options is possible. My lord, you must be on your guard."

"Jiazao expected that on this day, three kits will be prepared. If it is the first one, the lord will open the red kit, if it is the second one, the lord will open the green bag, and if it is the last one, the lord will Open the white bag."

Guo Jia vowed, stepped forward and took out three kits of different colors from his pocket and stuffed them into Cao Cao's hands.

Cao Cao looked confused.

Can't you just say it directly?
"I'm going to meet you now. My lord must bring evil with him, and Zhong Kang will act as his bodyguard."

"Lord, remember, don't look around."

"."

Cao Cao left, curious.

However, he did not doubt Guo Jia's talents, strategies, and even the way of governing the country.

In his eyes, Guo Jina is a great talent.

Don't think about joking with him.

The color must be remembered clearly.

Royal Palace.

Inside Chengtian Hall.

Zhu Di's family property was obviously transferred in advance.

It can be said that apart from a large house with eight entrances and eight exits, plus basic indoor furnishings and furniture, it has no value whatsoever.

Even in the capital, all the relatives of the Zhu family related to Zhu Di disappeared.

The rebellious heart has been planned for a long time.

"Your Majesty, General Cao is here, and he has brought two very vicious-looking guards with him."

Not long after, Chang Fu hugged the fly whisk and trotted forward to report.

outside the temple.

There is a person standing.

With the setting sun above our heads, it’s hard to see clearly.

"Xuan."

Lu Yan squinted and looked outside the hall.

After receiving the permission, Cao Cao immediately lowered his head, bowed slightly, and stepped into Chengtian Hall.

"The last general, Cao Cao, pays homage to your Majesty. Long live, long live, long live."

Cao Cao's voice was rich and magnetic.

The gesture, although very respectful.

But he has a general demeanor that is neither humble nor arrogant.

"General Cao, stay safe."

Lu Yan smiled and looked at Cao Cao who stood up after thanking him.

Name: Cao Cao

Identity: General Zhengdong

Talent: Commander of the Army (when commanding a party of soldiers and horses, the soldiers' loyalty will be improved and their fighting will will be strengthened), National Luck (after gaining loyalty, the national luck of Daxia will be increased by one), Mingzhu (personal charm will be greatly improved, and it will be easy to recruit talents)

Loyalty: Thirty

Martial arts: Cao family swordsmanship (green)

Internal strength: no
Realm: not in the flow
Three talents.

And, each one is extremely useful.

Lu Yan looked directly at Cao Cao with burning eyes.

It's not the first time they've met.

But in the past, he was above the court, and there were many people with different eyes, so he couldn't just focus on Cao Cao and study alone.

After all, this was the first private meeting.

Thinking about it, Lu Yan recalled some documents about Cao Cao in his previous life.

Cao Cao's courtesy name was Mengde, and his nickname was Ah Ma.

A generation of politicians, military strategists, writers, and even a poet.

The diversification of his career shows that he is an extraordinary person.

Some people say that the capable ministers who govern the world are the traitors in troubled times.

He once served as King of Wei and Prime Minister of Han Dynasty.

The outstanding achievement is to use the emperor to command the princes and establish the kingdom of the Wei Dynasty.

After that, Sima Yi jumped out.

But from beginning to end, Cao Cao never proclaimed himself emperor, and this was something Lu Yan admired.

On the whole, among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

He admired Cao Cao the most.

He was also most worried about Cao Cao.

With these thirty points of loyalty, Zhou Qian has no doubt that once the Great Zhou Dynasty is in chaos, all the heroes will rise together.

He is very likely to be the next Han Xiandi.

"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong with the general?"

Cao Cao smiled kindly and turned around in a circle to let the emperor look more carefully.

However, he was also a little panicked.

Let the emperor keep staring without saying a word.

Who knows what he wanted to do when he was suddenly summoned to the palace.

There won't be any swordsmen, right?
It shouldn't be.
Zhongkang and Erai were waiting outside the palace.

If something really happened, with the strength of the two of them who could take the heads of generals among the thousands of troops, it would not be difficult to capture the emperor among these imperial dragon guards.

It's just that, in this case, it's too late to look at the tips.

correct.

Which one are you looking at?

"There is nothing wrong with him. General Cao is very charming and is the mainstay of my Daxia. I definitely want to watch him for a while."

"Eternal blessing, grant me a seat."

Lu Yan smiled.

What a Cao Mengde.

Really different.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I will not dare."

"I don't know, Your Majesty summoned the general this time?"

"If there is any instruction from Your Majesty, as long as the general can do it, I will go all out."

Cao Cao bowed his hands and looked solemn.

inner thoughts.

Not even the slightest bit intangible.

"Three generations of the Cao family died for our Great Zhou Dynasty and fought bloody battles on the border to protect our Great Xia Dynasty from barbarians for nearly two hundred years."

"It's great to take credit."

"Can't I invite Meng De to come to the palace and talk to me about our daily life?"

Lu Yan walked down the white jade dragon steps with his hands behind his back.

He walked up to Cao Cao and patted the dust that fell from nowhere on his shoulder.

Behavior, extremely intimate.

This made Cao Cao uneasy.

"Chang Fu, get the royal wine offered by the barbarians from the west. I want to toast Meng De."

"According to the order."

Chang Fu waved his hand, and a young eunuch trotted forward with a jade plate filled with wine.

"General Cao, this is the imperial wine given to you by His Majesty."

". Thank you very much, Your Majesty."

Cao Cao took the wine cup bravely and saw that the wine was dark red, just like blood.

Is this wine poisonous?
Did Fengxiao really guess it right?
But is this an attempt to kill him, or to test his loyalty?

Look at the emperor's sincere expression and clear eyes.

probably not.

"Mender, please."

Lu Yan smiled slightly, as if he had guessed Cao Cao's worries, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the wine..."

Cao Cao gritted his teeth and did it directly.

He believed in the emperor just once.

If it is really poisonous, Cao Cao will be blinded. If he is lucky enough to survive, he will definitely act as a filial piety.

Red wine enters the stomach, sweet and slightly bitter.

There is a fragrance of grapes from the Western Regions.

Good wine.

"This wine was presented by foreign countries in the Western Regions. It is called wine. Compared with my Bactrian strong wine, the taste is a little less strong, but it still has a different flavor."

"Mengde, what do you think?"

Lu Yan played with the wine cup in his hand, looking vaguely at the two blurry figures outside the hall.

This time he summoned Cao Cao, and he was probably sure.

This person’s character and temper.

It is similar to what is recorded in historical documents.

Under normal circumstances, there will never be usurpation and rebellion.

After all, in history, Cao Cao never took the final step to take the title of Emperor Wu of Wei until his death.

That was also done by his son Cao Pi.

Even if his loyalty is only [-] points now, it is probably because he is very disappointed with the former emperor and now the Great Zhou.

Just like the big man in the previous life.

"Your Majesty, this wine tastes very good. I didn't expect the barbarians in the Western Regions to make wine in a very good way."

Cao Cao grinned and felt reassured.

Not poisonous.

He was not wrong about the emperor. He was not the kind of vicious person who liked to stab people behind his back.

This move of that day must be a test, right?

Once he dares not drink.

That's disloyalty.

Feng Xiao guessed it right.

".His Majesty."

Cao Cao's acting skills have always been acceptable, but now he suddenly covered his lower abdomen and looked embarrassed. "oh?"

"Mengde, what are you doing?"

The corners of Lu Yan's mouth raised, with concern on his face.

On psychology and acting skills.

So far, he has really never served anyone.

"Your Majesty, I am extremely ashamed."

"I ate a lot of venison in the house before, and I drank this wine for the first time. I'm afraid I'm not feeling well. I just want to make it easier."

Cao Cao's seven-foot body was twisting uneasily in the palace.

It's really like, the next moment will be thick and thin.

"Bold..."

"This is His Majesty's Chengtian Palace. How can it be a place where ministers can discharge filth?"

Chang Fu was angry.

He shook his fly whisk and scolded Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's face turned red and he didn't say anything. He continued to pretend anyway.

The emperor wanted to test his loyalty.

He also wanted to use this to test the emperor's tolerance.

"Chang Fu, don't be rude."

"People have three urgent needs, but this one is the most unbearable. Meng De is a meritorious minister, so there is no need to make an exception."

"There's Gong Tong behind, Meng De, go ahead."

Lu Yan pointed to the back of Chengtian Hall to show Cao Cao the way.

"General, I'm sorry to thank you, Your Majesty."

Cao Cao bowed to the end.

There was a flash of appreciation in his eyes.

The emperor's magnanimity is extraordinary, which is beyond his expectation.

You know, the emperor's Gong Tong's status is almost the same as that of the Dragon Throne.

When civil and military officials go to court, they usually do not drink water or eat.

Just to prevent this kind of thing from happening.

Cao Cao held his stomach and saw Gong Tong, which was as clean as new, although he had no intention of doing so.

But he still squatted up.

If there is no shit.

After going out, it's hard to explain.

After taking a quick look, there was absolutely no one around.

Cao Cao took out three kits from his pocket, trying hard while remembering which one to remove.

call……

Red, definitely red.

Cao Cao was delighted.

He was thinking too much on the way here and almost forgot about it.

Opening the red kit at once, I saw a small note lying inside, with bold and unrestrained handwriting, which looked like Feng Xiao's handwriting.

Filial piety is such a good word.

Cao Cao squinted his eyes and muttered to himself.

Just, it says.

Everything obeys the order.

So simple?
Do you want to take it apart and look at the other two?

Cao Cao felt itchy.

He has only two major temptations in his life, which are the most difficult to bear.

The first is someone else's wife, whose plumpness and grace are the most unforgettable in the world.

The second is a heart that explores the unknown.

But when he thought of Fengxiao's last instructions, he still sighed and put away his kit again.

Turn to holding your breath and exerting force.

"Ouch, it really stinks."

"Quick, spray more of the potpourri fragrance sent by the imperial concubine."

"And you guys, please fan yourself quickly. If your majesty is intoxicated, I won't spare you."

Chang Fu was like a general, commanding several eunuchs to stand by and prepare for the attack.

As soon as Cao Cao came out, he would immediately rush in and take Gong Tong out of Chengtian Hall.

At the same time, let a group of little palace ladies fan themselves together.

Spray some perfume powder on it.

Zhou Gan smiled.

He doesn't mind though.

However, you can avoid smelling some strange smells.

That's a good thing too.

"Your Majesty, the general has been rude, please punish him."

As soon as Cao Cao came out, the two eunuchs who had been waiting outside immediately rushed in.

Cao Cao was frightened.

I thought it was a swordsman.

However, I watched a eunuch cover the barrel with a white cloth soaked in fragrant powder, and then press the gap with his hands.

The other is holding Gong Tong.

Running towards the outside of the hall, I suddenly felt embarrassed.

"It's okay."

"Meng De, I see that you like this wine. Although you feel uncomfortable, you will get used to it if you drink more."

"Chang Fu, give General Cao ten jars of wine from the Western Regions."

Lu Yan waved his hand, indicating not to mention the past.

"Your Majesty's gift will be given to you in the end."

Cao Cao was a little moved.

He was discourteous first, but instead of punishing him, the emperor rewarded him with wine.

With this measure, the emperor will never be a faint king.

Filial piety, filial piety.

The emperor's favor is increasing, but it is absolutely impossible to do what Zhu Di did, and he will be reviled for a century.

Cao Cao lowered his head and smiled bitterly in his heart.

He wants to be a loyal minister.

However, in the Zhou Dynasty, the water was too muddy.

"You are welcome, Meng De. I see that you have brought two attendants with you. Can you bring them here so that I can see them?"

Lu Yan smiled.

"what?"

"They are just two rough men. Your Majesty wants to see them. It is their honor."

"Zhongkang, evil comes."

Cao Cao's eyelids twitched, feeling uneasy for no reason.

But the emperor spoke.

Still nodding, he shouted outside the hall.

The next moment, two tall and mighty men wearing black light armor were about to enter the palace.

"Stop, put down the sword."

This is the voice of the Imperial Dragon Guard.

"Those who serve in the army, their swords never leave their bodies..."

"I won't let go."

"Unless you can beat me."

These are the sounds of two urns.

Then there was the sound of a sword being unsheathed.

Cao Cao broke into a cold sweat.

Are these two guys planning to use weapons in the palace?
Then, how many imperial dragon guards were hacked to death?
Take him with you to escape from the imperial city.

Force him to rebel?

Bad thing.

Could it be that Fengxiao asked him to bring evil and Zhongkang with him, and that was what he meant?

"stop."

"I trust the people of Mengde. There is no need to take off your sword and let them in."

Lu Yan put his hands behind his back and smiled.

"Your Majesty can't."

"Those two people are really vicious."

"If you are carrying a sword and intending to do harm, you are a kid."

Chang Fu burst into tears.

Today, Your Majesty has changed the rules of the palace twice. Is this why he favors General Cao?
Yes, he was envious.

"I said it to those who trust Meng De, declare it."

Lu Yan said in a deep voice.

At the same time, the corner of his mouth raised.

He saw that the loyalty on Cao Cao's head changed from thirty to forty-five.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect?
He graduated in psychology.

Basically, how much trust, favor you exert, except for some damn beasts.

Even if you don't get the corresponding reward.

There must be something gained.

Cao Cao, as long as he doesn't rebel.

Lu Yan never wanted to kill him.

If so, you can help co-insure Dazhou.

Baili and no harm.

"Your Majesty has decreed that when two strong men enter the palace, they do not need to take off their swords."

"According to the order."

Without the obstruction of the imperial guards, the two men walked into the hall holding long swords.

Chang Fu didn't dare to say more.

Just the body, slightly forward.

Whenever these two people do something evil, even if he dies, he will help His Majesty block the two swords.

"Evil comes, Zhongkang. Why don't you pay homage to His Majesty when you see him?"

Cao Cao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

He winked at his two close friends and generals.

Signal them, but don't be impulsive.

Xu Chu and Dian Wei looked at each other and bowed together.

"Meet Your Majesty."
