Chapter 821 Cao Cao's Withdrawal
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty cried heartbreakingly, which was very tragic. Xun Yu, who was in the crowd, changed his face one after another, full of sadness and sighed. Xun Yu's sadness was not the death of Cao Cao, but these people who were deceived. Xun Yu knew that Cao Cao was not dead at all. The intention of his move was to find out all the ministers in the court who had two hearts for him, that is to say, he would face a cruel and ruthless blood wash in the court!
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty kept crying, and a group of court bureaucrats also cried miserably, but Cao's ministers secretly stared at everyone's expressions to distinguish between true and false.
A few days later, all the seats in Luoyang City were silent in grief. At this time, the army escorting Cao Cao was still on the way back to Luoyang.
As soon as Cao Cao died, the society was in turmoil. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty wanted to take advantage of the situation to regain the imperial power. On the one hand, he made people arrange Cao Cao's funeral, and on the other hand, he secretly discussed with others about the seizure of power.
In the Luoyang Palace, somewhere in the secret room. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and Empress Fu sat in the high hall, with two rows of bureaucrats on both sides. These people were the father of the queen, including the father of the queen, Fu Wan, the Taizhong doctor Kong Rong, Zuo Yilang Zhao Yan, the right Yilang Wu Shuo, the general of Zhaoxin Wu Zilan, the captain of Changshui, and the prince of the minister of the Ministry of Industry.
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty's eyes were red, and he got up and cried.
"Since I ascended the throne, I have been a traitorous hero. I was first affected by Dong Zhuo, and then by the chaos of Li Chu and Guo Yan. I lost all the imperial power, just like a dog who lost his family. I and the queen have suffered all the sufferings of ordinary people. Later, Cao Cao saved the country. He thought that after he was a loyal minister, he was a loyal minister who ruled the world. He didn't care about his ambition. He wanted to swallow the country of the Han Dynasty. He took me as a puppet and ordered the princes. He was good at prestige. He was a great weapon of the community!! Whenever I see it, my back is like a thorn, and it is difficult to sit still. Looking at the foundation of my ancestors, it will be destroyed in my hands. It's really heartbreaking, and I don't want to live!!! Fortunately, the sky has eyes and finally killed the traitor Cao Mengde!!! However, Cao's power has long been deeply rooted. His claws are powerful. Although the traitor is dead, I have not been able to regain the great weapon of the society!!! I'm really ashamed of the ancestors of the Han Dynasty!!!"
When Emperor Xian of Han talked about the pain, he didn't feel that tears flowed like a spring, and the Empress beside him also cried with the sound. Her face was bleak, and she said sadly
"The princes of the Manchu Dynasty all ate Hanlu. Although the treacherous thief died, no one could save the country?! "
Before he finished his words, suddenly a person bowed and said in a condensed voice.
"Emperor, don't worry later. An old minister can be one person who can solve the national disaster!"
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty is eager to see it, and it is today's famous scholar Kong Rong. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty covered his tears and asked urgently.
"How to solve it, Kong Aiqing, teach me quickly!!?"
Kong Rong's eyes were full of swing, and there was a noble spirit like a saint all over his body. He spoke slowly without panic.
"The so-called multi-deed injustice will kill itself! Cao Mengde did a lot of evil, and there was more than enough to die. However, as the emperor said, in the Manchu dynasty, if it is not the Cao clan, it is the minions under its door. Cao's power is overwhelming. If it is not for the loyal people of the country, who will be loyal to it? If you want to eliminate it, you must use lightning speed to cover your ears, but I and other civil servants have no military power. Wu Zilan and Zhong Yi, the two Minggongs, have less than 3,000 troops in their hands, which is difficult to do this. Dong Cheng, the general's uncle, has 5,000 soldiers and horses in his hand. If he is willing to go, he will gather 8,000 troops and move quickly. It's a big deal!"
As soon as Kong Rong's voice fell, Fu Wan, Zhao Yan and others echoed one after another. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty's eyes suddenly burst out, and he nod and said.
"Dong Guo's uncle often went to the national disaster. Although he was close to Cao on the surface, he was secretly loyal to me. Although I have no power, I can still divide black and white. It is advisable to secretly invite the uncle to come in and discuss major events together.
The prince listened to the words, frowned and said with many concerns.
"The emperor's left and right are Cao's confidants. If something leaks, he will be known by his minions, and he will fight hard, which is not a deep disaster. I'm afraid that the involvement will make Luoyang City full of bloody storms!"
Wu Shuo also had such concerns and said solemnly.
"The matter of eliminating thieves is a matter of great importance. Once there is a little mistake, as a Han minister, we are really lucky to die for the country. I'm afraid of involving the Holy One. I don't know if the public can have a perfect plan!?"
After meditating for a while, the state father said.
"I have a plan. I don't know if I can do it."
"It's out of the plan!!? The abbot doesn't have to worry too much. Come quickly!!"
Emperor Xian of Han showed a little crazy in his eyes. He, the emperor, has been a puppet for a long time. Although he has been lying on firewood and waiting for the opportunity, as Cao Cao's power is getting stronger and bigger, Emperor Xian of Han has long been disheartened. If Cao Cao is given a good opportunity today, he will die. How can he seize this good opportunity!!!
After bowing, he bowed and said in a condensed voice.
"The emperor can make a collar of clothes, take a piece of jade belt, make a spy first, and watch his loyalty. If you are loyal, you will give it to Dong Cheng. However, he sewed a secret edict inside the lining to give it, so that he could see the edict at home. Then you don't realize it!"
Emperor Xian of Han was overjoyed, and then after discussing with everyone for a while, he left one after another.
At the same time, in Cheng Yu's house, Dian Wei came to see him with Cao Cao's secret order. Cheng Yu hurriedly opened the book and looked at it. His eyes stared, and his face gradually became cold. It turned out that Cao Cao had always been on guard against Dong Chengsu, the general of bicycle riding. After all, Dong Cheng was a relative of the Han Dynasty. Although he had always been close to Cao, Cao Cao did not know what he thought in his heart, that is, the tutorial Yu was like this. Cheng Yu got the order to gather Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Cao Hong, Xiahou Dun and other Cao clans that night to discuss secretly.
The next morning, in the palace hall. Cheng Yu suddenly issued an order and said that General Dong Cheng was suspected of secretly connecting to the northwest. Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun and other Cao's relatives seconded one after another. In a moment, the whole hall suddenly became an infinite crisis. Everyone thinks that these people of the Cao family are afraid that Cao Cao will lose power after his death and jointly want to eradicate the important ministers in the dynasty first!
Cao Ren and Xia Hou Dun's faces were dark, and they all stared at the murderous tiger eyes and looked at Emperor Xian of Han. Dian Wei, behind Cao Ren, smiled coldly, and his eyes were full of threats. Emperor Xian of Han was so scared that he trembled and didn't know what to do.
At this time, Cheng Yu bowed and shouted harshly.
"Cao Cheng has been a country all his life. Although he was favored by the Emperor of Heaven, he was promoted to immortals. But don't forget that Prime Minister Cao Cheng is unparalleled loyalty and righteousness. He spares no effort for the country. If he hadn't been shot by Xu Gongming, the general of the northwest, under the tiger prison, he would have been fatal. He knew that it was difficult to survive, and would he be willing to take the fate and abandon the national affairs of the country!!?
Prime Minister Cao is the pillar of the country. He did not hesitate to fight against the northwest at the risk of life and death, but there were treacherous villains who secretly united with the thieves in the northwest, so that the Prime Minister fell into danger, and the northwest was unfavorable!! Please also ask the Holy Spirit to observe Qiuhao and order the killing of the treacherous villain, otherwise how can you put Prime Minister Cao in heaven!!!?"
After Cheng Yu finished drinking, Cao Ren and Xia Hou Dun all attended and shouted harshly.
"Please enforce the law impartially, and don't chill the hearts of our loyal ministers!!!"
The two of them shouted loudly, like two thunderstorms. Emperor Xian of Han was so scared that his face turned pale and trembled. Hundreds of officials in the court did not dare to say anything. Even Dong Cheng, the person concerned, had no choice but to close his eyes and sigh bitterly, and his heart was full of endless sadness. Dong Cheng knew in his heart that if he resisted at this time, he would only anger these Cao people who became crazy because of Cao Cao's death. At that time, he did not know what he would do.
At this moment, Kong Rong walked out anguly and shouted.
"Hail!! Dong Gong is a man of Qingde, and he is also a relative of the emperor's country. How can he secretly communicate with the thieves in the northwest and disturb the court? According to Rong's opinion, there must be a hidden situation. You should observe it carefully and then make a conclusion.
As soon as Cheng Yu heard this, he didn't speak first, grinned and smiled, secretly in his heart.
"Vit's very good, get one person first!"
"What Kong Gong said is very true. We don't know who Dong Guo's uncle is! There must be something wrong with this matter. According to Yan's opinion, it is likely to be a thief in the northwest. He heard that the prime minister was promoted to immortals, so he wanted to alienate and murder his uncle. If the uncle dies with injustice, the court must be panicked. Immediately, the thieves in the northwest will take advantage of the situation to attack. The court is worried about internal and external troubles, and I'm afraid that it will soon be subverted!!"
Zhao Yan attended Yidao. As soon as this speech came out, Fu Wan, Wang Zifu, Wu Zilan, Zhong Yi and others also seconded. Cheng Yu couldn't stop sneering and secretly. Xiahou Dun saw that this group of people had the tendency to rebel, and the tiger's eyes shot fiercely and was about to attack. At this time, Cao Ren secretly stopped him and motioned with a wink, and let's see how Cheng Yu dealt with it first.
Cheng Yu suddenly laughed and bowed respectfully.
"Ha ha. What the public said is reasonable. If it hadn't been for your words, Yu would have almost won the alienation of the thieves in the northwest. I hope the Holy will forgive you!"
When Emperor Xian of Han heard the words, the big stone in his heart suddenly fell and sighed secretly. Not only did he not blame Cheng Yu, but he praised his loyalty and was worried about the court. Cheng Yu repeatedly humilied the crime, and then apologized to Dong Cheng.
"I just mistakenly offended my uncle's prestige. I hope my uncle has a lot of it. Don't mind."
"Cheng Gong's words are heavy. Cheng Gong is dedicated to the country. How dare the old minister blame?
Dong Cheng's face was flat and replied indifferently. Cheng Yu silently looked at Dong Cheng for a while. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty hurriedly asked the officials of His Highness, but there was still something to report. The officials all the officials claimed that there were none, and Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty ordered the officials to disperse quickly. The officials came out of the hall one after another. Before they left, they secretly cast a look at Emperor Xian of Han.
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty understood that from today's intention of Cheng Yu and others to harm Dong Cheng, it is enough to prove that Dong Cheng is by no means a person of the Cao family. After Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty returned to the palace, he made a secret edict, bit his fingertips, and wrote it with blood. He secretly ordered Empress Fu to sew it in the jade belt and purple brocade lining, but he wore a brocade robe and tied this belt. At the beginning of the night, he ordered the internal history Xuan Dong to enter.
However, it is said that Dong Cheng was almost killed by Cheng Yu and other Cao's people. When he returned to the house, he had a lot of feelings in his heart. He thought that although Cao Cao was dead, his power was deeply rooted in the court, and his claws could still be rampant. Dong Cheng had the heart to save the country, but there was nothing he could do. It was the time when he hesitated, and suddenly there was a secret of internal history.
Dong Cheng was shocked and quickly woke up. He immediately boarded a simple carriage with Neishi and went into the palace to see Emperor Xian of Han. When he was young, Dong Cheng gave a salute, and Emperor Xian of Han was full of sadness and said with great guilt.
"Today, I know that my uncle is wronged, but I am afraid of the power of the thief, and I dare not interfer with my uncle, so I specially declare my condolences and plead guilty to my uncle. I hope my uncle won't hold a grudge against me!"
Dong Cheng was shocked and knelt down and said he didn't dare. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty did not say anything first, led Dong Cheng out of the hall, all the way to the imperial temple, and turned to the meritorious minister's cabinet.
After burning incense, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty quoted Dong Chengguan's portraits of the emperors in the Han Dynasty. The middle portrait is the ancestor of Han Gao. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty looked carefully and didn't realize that his eyes were red and tears.
"Do you know, uncle, where did my Emperor Gaozu get up? How to start a business and win the world?"
Dong Cheng hurriedly replied respectfully.
"The emperor is really an actor. How can I not know about the holy ancestor? Gao Zu started from Si Shangting, raised a three-foot sword, cut off the white snake to revolt, and gathered handsome heroes, such as Xiao He, Zhang Liang, Fan Wei and Han Xin, and crossed the world. He killed Qin for three years and destroyed Chu for five years, so he had the world and established the foundation of all generations!"
When Emperor Xian of Han heard the words, he burst into tears and sighed.
"The ancestors are so heroic, but why am I so cowardly? Isn't it ridiculous?"
"The saint must not underestimate himself. Gao Zu got the world. There was once a saying that it was all because of the help of Zhang Liang and Xiao He. If the emperor has the help of talents comparable to these two people, how can't the Han Dynasty return to the prosperity of Gaozu in those years!!!"
After listening to this, Emperor Xian of Han looked at the portrait of Gaozu, and the two people left and right.
"Are these two people the Marquis Zhang Liang and the Marquis Xiao Heye?"
Dong Cheng looked carefully and nod his head in response.
"Yes. Gao Zu started a business, and the two great sages, Zhang and Xiao, made great contributions!"
Emperor Xian of Han looked back that there was no one around, and the guards were all in the distance, whispering in Dong Cheng's ear.
"Would you like to be such two people, assisting me and helping me to help the Han Dynasty!"
