Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 413 Dong Cheng's Death
"Prince Fu, you are not going to die!"

After Xu Chu rode his horse and killed several people in a row, he rushed to Wang Zifu's side, raised his knife and shouted fiercely.

"Ah, my life is over!"

When Wang Zifu saw Xu Chu who was shouting fiercely with a knife, he thought something was wrong in his heart, and hurriedly raised the long sword in his hand, trying to block Xu Chu's knife.

"Haha, the mantis arm is the car!"

Xu Chu slashed down with a knife. How could the prince's suit as a civil servant resist the brave Xu Chu's knife? Xu Chu directly knocked down the long sword with a knife. After that, there was no more. Both arms were cut off by Xu Chu, and he fell to the ground, seemingly dead and unable to die again.

"Oh, Dong Cheng, it seems that Wang Zifu failed to save your life, he failed to block Zhongkang's knife, so your life is destined to belong to the prime minister!"

Cao Cao lowered his head and said to Dong Cheng when he saw that Xu Chu had killed Wang Zifu with a single blow.

"I don't regret the death of Dong Cheng, but it's a pity that you, a thief, came out of the Han Dynasty, but I, Dong Cheng, can't eliminate the thief for Your Majesty. It's ruthless, so ruthless!"

Dong Cheng knew that today's matter was inevitable, so he lowered his head and said bitterly.

"The leader of the thief has been killed, and the descendant will not be killed!"

Cao Cao shouted to the group of servants gathered by Dong Cheng in front of him.

Most of the servants put down the weapons in their hands after seeing the fighting power of Cao Jun and the killing of Prince Dong Cheng, the leader, and knelt down on the ground, throwing themselves at him. Thousands of troops resisted desperately and vowed not to surrender.

"It's so stubborn! Just kill them together!"

Seeing that these people were still desperately resisting, Cao Cao said angrily.

At the same time, Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan brothers also brought Xudu's forbidden army to Cao Cao's mansion.

When Xu Chu saw the Xiahou brothers coming, he shouted loudly: "The prime minister has an order that those who surrender will not die, otherwise they will all be executed!"

"Yes!"

After Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan received the order, they led more than 1 forbidden troops to surround all the resisters, and then shot them to death with random arrows.

"Prime Minister, here is the list of the families involved in the rebellion!"

In the evening, Xi Zhicai handed over a list and the belt edict written by Liu Xie to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao took the list and took a look, and saw that it said that those who participated in the turmoil were: General Cheqi, Uncle Dong Cheng and Minister Wang Zifu of the Ministry of Industry, Changshui Xiaowei Zhongji, Yilang Wu Shuo, Zhaoxin General Wu Zilan, Xiliang prefect Ma Teng, imperial physician Ji Ping, left general Liu Bei, and even Cao Cao saw Liu Wei's name at the end.And Cao Cao was even more angry when he saw the blood letter on the clothes belt edict.

"Liu Xie, you are tired of working!"

After Cao Cao read the list, he slapped the list on the table and said angrily.

"Prime Minister calm down, let's think about how to deal with these rebels!"

Xi Zhicai spoke.

"How to deal with it, of course it is to kill them all! Moreover, the leaders of Dong Cheng and the others must be decapitated to show the public!"

Cao Cao was still angry, and said bitterly: "Besides, you go and get Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, and I want to discuss with them about abolishing the establishment!"

"What? Prime Minister, you want to establish a new monarch?"

Xi Zhicai was surprised at first, and then hurriedly replied: "No, no, the prime minister must not appoint another new monarch!"

"Huh? Why? This little emperor dared to disobey discipline and join forces with others to kill me. Am I going to swallow this breath!"

Cao Cao asked.

"Prime Minister, our crusade against Liu Wei failed, and the world is in turmoil now, and Liu Wei is a relative of the emperor, and also of the blood of the Han royal family. If the prime minister abolishes the little emperor, then Liu Wei will definitely say that the prime minister has committed the crime of chaos. , he will definitely proclaim himself emperor, and Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Liu Yan of Yizhou are all royal families, and Liu Wei will establish himself as the new monarch, and they will certainly not be far behind. When the time comes, our new monarch will have no effect at all. It means coercing the emperor to order the princes, we occupy the great righteousness, once a new king is established, then we will overthrow the righteousness to others, and no one in the world will listen to us, and they will even be openly against us. The great plan of uniting the princes against Liu will not succeed!"

Xi Zhicai explained to Cao Cao.

"Then you say, what should I do?"

Cao Cao asked unwillingly.

"The little emperor must warn, but it has to be the prime minister who warns you personally, and Dong Cheng has been punished, the little emperor must not dare to act rashly, we just need to clean up the people who are against us in the court!"

Xi Zhicai spoke.

"Okay, then let people hang the heads of Dong Cheng and others on the city gate to show the public. I will go into the palace and kill Dong Cheng's daughter of the rebel!"

Cao Cao said viciously.

"No, Dong Cheng and others can be killed, and their family members can also be killed, but the matter of Yidai Zhao must not be revealed, otherwise, the two extroverted princes Ma Teng and Liu Bei will be forced into Liu Wei. They went over there, now our excuse for killing Dong Cheng and the others can only be that they joined forces with Liu Wei to plot rebellion, that's why you, Prime Minister, put them to death!"

Xi Zhicai said again.

"Damn, hate!"

Cao Cao smashed the table a few more times, and was furious, but he had to do what Xi Zhicai said, because he didn't want to be charged with treason, so he had to do what Xi Zhicai said, otherwise, he would be a traitor , while Dong Cheng and others died for the country.

"Then I will enter the palace right away, and I want to see what this little fellow Liu Xie has to say!"

Cao Cao was so angry that he naturally wanted to find someone to vent it out, and that unlucky guy was naturally Liu Xie who wrote the edict.

"Your Majesty, do you know about Dong Cheng's rebellion?"

After entering the palace, Cao Cao broke into Liu Xie's harem without authorization and questioned Liu Xie loudly.

"Didn't Dong Zhuo's rebellion already be crowned?"

Seeing the anger on Cao Cao's face, Liu Xie asked tremblingly.

"It's not Dong Zhuo, it's Dong Cheng!"

Cao Cao roared.

"Well, how could Dong Cheng rebel, Dong Cheng is the uncle of the country!"

Seeing Liu Xie's innocent look, Cao Cao was about to talk about the clothes and belts, but he remembered what Xi Zhicai said, so he suppressed his anger and said, "It's good that your Majesty doesn't know, Dong Cheng is colluding with you." Liu Wei, if you want to kill me and Your Majesty, this thief is so vicious, his daughter must also be a vicious person, so I ask Your Majesty to kill Dong Guiren!"

"Prime Minister, Prime Minister, I beg you, please let Concubine Dong Ai go, she is pregnant with my flesh and blood, just let him go!"

Liu Xie said it almost in tears.

"How can I allow her to live! Someone, hang Dong Guiren to death!"

Cao Cao shouted to the guards he arranged outside the palace.

A moment later, two imperial guards pulled Concubine Dong out of Concubine Dong's bedroom and strangled her to death!

Cao Cao also ordered Xia Houen to lead five thousand soldiers to guard the palace. Except during the court period, anyone who entered or exited at other times would be searched.

Since then, Liu Xie's life has been worse than before.
