The most poisonous person in the Three Kingdoms, Boss Cao advised me to calm down!

Chapter 161 Cao Cao’s dream, three horses in the same trough

So, when the king captain heard Lord Sima.

Let him send someone to escort Deng Ai's mother to Xudu.

When it was handed over to Xun Lingjun for placement, how could he dare to refuse?

Not only did he not dare to refuse, but he even vowed to do so.

I want to personally escort Deng Ai's mother to Xudu.

If something goes wrong, he is willing to commit suicide and apologize!

Seeing this, Sima De was also quite satisfied.

Deng Ai was even more grateful!

How could he not know about the captain's thoughts?
But he didn't expose it, he just kept it in his heart.

If there is a chance in the future, I will just promote him.

The next few people did not stay in this farmland for much longer.

After arranging things for Deng Ai's mother.

He and Cao Zhang led Deng Aibei back to Xudu.

That night, the city of Xudu was quiet.

The Prime Minister's residence was also sparsely lit.

Cao Cao was in a good mood recently because his headache was relieved.

And because the autumn weather has been crisp recently, I can’t help but feel comfortable physically and mentally.

These days, I am full of energy in the evenings and often visit my beloved concubine.

There are many Cao Zhang brothers and a few younger brothers.

It was already late at night, and the maid on duty was dozing off.

The footsteps of patrolling soldiers gradually approached.

All the servants in the mansion were also in a daze.

But right now.

Suddenly lightning struck in the quiet night sky, piercing the long dark night!

In an instant, the entire Prime Minister's Mansion was lit up like daylight!
Then there was a deafening thunder from the sky!

It really shocked everyone in the mansion.

But it wasn't over yet, a loud roar also sounded.

"Ah~!!!"

This caused a panic in the entire Prime Minister's Mansion!
At this time, in the inner hall, Cao Cao's dormitory.

There was a bang, and the door was broken open!

I saw Xu Chu rushing in followed by more than ten soldiers.

"Prime Minister! Prime Minister, don't panic! Xu Chu is here!"

"Prime Minister! Where is the assassin?!"

But at the moment Xu Chu rushed in with everyone.

I saw that my lord was only wearing a crotch.

At this time, he was holding a sharp sword and looking around with a vigilant expression.

The beautiful concubine on the bed was wrapping herself tightly in quilt with a look of fear on her face.

"Well" Xu Chu also frowned when he saw this, looking a little embarrassed.

There is no way, the prime minister likes to kill people in his dreams.

When these people are on duty at night, they all have to wear a strong sword.

Everyone must be very energetic and don’t dare to neglect!

And when the servants ran in to hold the lamp for lighting.

Cao Cao finally came to his senses slowly and put down the Yitian Sword in his hand.

He patted his forehead and said angrily:
"It's okay, there are no assassins."

"Go down, all go down."

"It's just a dream I had."

When the soldiers heard this, they immediately looked at each other.

When Xu Chu saw this, he also held up his hands and led everyone back out.

After seeing all these guards go out.

Cao Mengde let out a long sigh.

At this time, I was sitting on the edge of the bed and slowly began to recall the dream just now.
I just felt that I had a strange dream tonight, something not simple!
He actually dreamed of three horses for no reason.

And the three horses were eating fodder in a trough.

For some reason, Cao Cao felt a little weird in his heart.

Because the moment when the three horses finished eating the food in the trough.

Cao Cao suddenly felt enveloped in a huge panic!

Then he woke up with a start, and then the scene just happened.

"Three horses? They all eat from the same trough. They eat up everything in the trough."

"Tsk, what's the meaning of this dream?"

He was looking out the window with twinkling eyes.

I was so confused that I couldn't sleep all night!
At dawn the next day, the capital city of Xu was sunny and sunny.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, a group of advisers gathered together. Everyone sat upright and prepared to discuss matters with full energy.

But Zhuge Cao Cao came out yawning.

There were still some bloodshot eyes, obviously he didn't sleep well last night.

When the counselors saw this, they couldn't help but look at each other.

But they all raised their hands and said hello: "I have met the Prime Minister!"

When Cao Cao saw his subordinates saluting, he also waved his hand subconsciously.

This hasn't even started business yet.

Cheng Yu stood up first and asked:
"The Prime Minister is not in good spirits today, but he didn't rest well last night?"

Cao Cao nodded when he heard this and said with a frown:

"What Zhongde said is right."

"I had a nightmare last night."

"But I was so frightened that I woke up from my sleep and couldn't sleep well after a whole night of tossing."

Xun You raised his hands and said:
"If that's the case, can the Prime Minister speak out and listen?"

"To have a good idea is to think about something every day and dream about something every night."

"Dreams can also foretell good or bad luck."

"But I don't know what dream can make the Prime Minister so worried?"

Cao Cao nodded when he heard this and said with a frown:

"This dream is strange."

"I saw three horses in my dream, and the three horses were eating from the same trough in front of me."

"When the food in the trough was eaten up, I felt inexplicably terrified."

"So much so that I was woken up on the spot!"

In a few words, he directly told what he saw in his dream.

But before he finished speaking, Chen Qun who was sitting here exclaimed:

"Not good! This person is the same as Cao Cao."

"Three horses eat one cao together."

"When the food in Cao Zhong was eaten up, the prime minister was inexplicably frightened!"

"Could these three horses be an allusion to three people with ulterior motives?"

"Intentionally harming the Prime Minister?!"

Everyone present's expressions changed greatly after hearing this.

You know, the prophecies of the Later Han Dynasty became common.

Dream interpretation is also a type of prophecy.

The study of prophecy is based on the theory of yin and yang and the five elements.

It was based on Dong Zhongshu's "theory of induction of heaven and man" in the Western Han Dynasty and became popular for a while.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was called internal science and respected as a secret scripture.

For example, who hasn't studied the saying "those who have inherited the Han Dynasty should be Tu Gao" in recent years?

So when these people present heard what Chen Qun said.

Each one of them was awe-inspiring, and their expressions were a little weird!
Could it be said that the three horses in the prime minister's dream were really someone else?
So who are the three people with ulterior motives?
Before the counselors could get the answer.

Just listen to Jia Xu, who has been silent all this time, say:

"Could it be that Liangzhou Ma family?"

"Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Ma Tie and his son?"

When everyone heard this, they all looked thoughtful!
The wealthy families in Xiliang have always been dissatisfied with the imperial court.

And in total, there are a hundred thousand troops.

And they are all elite soldiers and cavalry who come and go like the wind!

Among them, Ma Teng and Han Sui are the strongest.

The wealthy families in Xiliang all have these two as their leaders.

In Boss Cao's opinion, it is difficult to deal with the forces of Ma Teng and Han Sui in Liangzhou.

No less powerful than the Sun family who ruled Jiangdong.

It's just that Jiangdong is blocked by a large river, making it inconvenient for the army to go south.

If the Liangzhou cavalry gathers together, it will be difficult to stop them.

After all, Cao Cao still has mostly infantry in his hands.

Although now we have the Yuyang Cavalry from Youzhou in the north.

But they still can't compare to the Xiliang Cavalry.

After all, Cao Cao's cavalry is still used to defend against foreigners.

Xiliang itself has good relations with the local Qiang people.

Some Xiliang nobles even intermarry with the Qiang people.

For example, Ma Teng married the daughter of a Qiang leader.

Therefore, among the two leaders in Liangzhou, Ma Teng said that he did not have as many soldiers as Han Sui.

But he is not only the queen of Han Fubo general Ma Yuan.

He was also deeply wary of the Qiang's loyalty, which was far more difficult to deal with than Han Sui.
