When Liu Yu was immersed in the joy of the birth of his child, many big things happened in Luoyang. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Dong Zhuo dominated the government and began to implement his reign of terror, constantly killing those who opposed him, and even beheading a minister, putting his head in a wine vat for other ministers to drink. The ministers of the Han Dynasty knew that Dong Zhuo was not the same as them, and someone began to secretly plot to assassinate Dong Zhuo. This person is Wang Yun.
After Wang Yun died of his son, he devoted himself to the government and politics, hoping to make some contributions to the country and the people.
It's a pity that when he wanted to contribute to the country, he encountered all kinds of great changes. Seeing that Dong Zhuo was arrogant and domineering, and might make Wang Mang's move to usurp the Han family, seeing such a situation, Wang Yun was anxious.
Dong Zhuo knew that these ministers must be dissatisfied with him, so he asked his subordinates to strengthen surveillance, and it can be said that Dong Zhuo can know what the ministers do.
In order to hide people's eyes, Wang Yun summoned ministers to his home to discuss on the pretext of holding his birthday party.
The ministers all knew that Wang Yun must have something to discuss, so they all agreed to be there on time.
When night fell, all the ministers arrived at Wang Yun's house.
Wang Yun sat on the throne and said to the ministers who came: "Today, on the day of the old man's mother's trouble, thank you colleagues for coming to the cold house. ”
The crowd didn't even dare to say it.
After serving a few dishes and drinking a few glasses of wine, Wang Yun blasted all the subordinates out.
The ministers present knew that Wang Yun was now starting to get down to business.
Wang Yun said sadly: "The Han family is unfortunate, encountering Dong Zhuo, a traitor, the Queen Mother and King Hongnong were murdered, and now His Majesty is controlled by Dong Zhuo's dog thief, Wang Mang's story is in front, and the old man thinks of this scene every day, which is really painful." ”
When Wang Yun talked about emotion, he cried bitterly, and some of the ministers present also had deep understanding and left tears.
Yuan Kui comforted: "The master is relieved, Your Majesty has the blessing of God, and he will definitely be able to turn the crisis into safety." ”
Wang Yun said bitterly: "Your Majesty is under the control of Dong Zhuo's dog thieves every day, I don't know when I will be able to lift the dark clouds and see the bright moon!" ”
What Wang Yun said was the truth, and the ministers were also sad and inexplicable.
"Manly man, what are you crying and crying here!" An angry voice was heard from the crowd.
Wang Yun and the other ministers looked at the person who made the voice.
Someone sarcastically said: "It turned out to be Lord Cao in Cao Shizhong, you didn't hold his stinky feet from Dong Zhuo's dog thief, what are you doing here?" , you're not welcome here! ”
Cao Cao has been very close to Dong Zhuo recently, which disgusted some ministers who thought they were loyal, and secretly cursed Cao Cao for not dying well.
Cao Cao didn't care, stood up and reprimanded angrily: "A group of wastes who usually only know how to fight for power and profit, now the society has been brutally murdered by traitors, you don't go to plan and contribute to the country, but you cry here like a woman." Although Dong Zhuo is brutal, he is also just a person, as long as he dares to die, he can be sent to hell. You wastes who are greedy for life and afraid of death, which one dares to sacrifice his life for the country, I, Cao Cao, am ashamed to sit at the same table with you and take my leave. ”
The ministers present who scolded a few words were full of shame, and Cao Cao left angrily.
Wang Yun looked at the departing Cao Cao and thought in his heart.
The ministers were not in the mood to continue to discuss, and left Wang Yun's mansion one after another.
Late at night, Wang Yun quietly invited Cao Cao to the mansion.
Wang Yun said sincerely: "The old man listened to the words of the virtuous nephew today, and he suddenly opened his mouth, and I don't know if the virtuous nephew can solve the current dilemma. ”
Wang Yun and Cao Cao's father, Cao Song, were of the same generation, and it was not wrong to call Cao Cao a virtuous nephew.
"Lord Wang, what I said earlier is a good idea." Cao Cao said directly.
"Although the plan of the virtuous nephew is good, it is a pity that Dong Zhuo is very guarded against others, and he is also heavily defended by his side, this matter is difficult!" Wang Yun expressed his concern.
Cao Cao said to Wang Yun, "Lord Wang, don't worry. Before flattering Dong Zhuo in order to find an opportunity to kill him in the future, it is time to end up this dog thief in the chaotic world. ”
"The virtuous nephew is the heart of the country and the people, and he can show the sun and the moon. It's hateful that those who are usually full of benevolence, righteousness and morality don't know the deep meaning of the virtuous nephew, so that the virtuous nephew is wronged. Wang Yun was in awe of Cao Cao's loyalty.
Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "I don't care how others treat me." Although he has a heart, Dong Zhuo usually wears invulnerable soft armor in order to guard against assassins, and he does not have a magic weapon, so he cannot successfully kill Dong Zhuo in Xia. ”
"Rest assured, the old man has a family heirloom knife, called the Seven Star Knife, which sharpens iron like clay, which is a sharp weapon to get rid of Dong Zhuo." Cao Cao didn't even want his life, Wang Yun naturally wouldn't hide his secrets, and hurriedly asked someone to take out the seven-star knife.
Cao Cao picked up the seven-star knife, only to see that the knife was about three feet long, the whole body was jet black, and the back of the knife was inlaid with seven priceless gems, and the blade showed a cold glow.
Cao Cao was very satisfied, put away the treasure knife, did not say a word, and left Wang Yun's mansion directly.
Wang Yun sighed: "Cao Mengde really has the style of a countryman, and Cao Jugao has a successor." ”
Wang Yun thought of his son Wang Dan, if Wang Dan could be like Cao Cao, he would not be as miserable as he is now.
With a sigh of lamentation, Wang Yun also returned to his room.
At noon on the second day, Cao Cao hid the seven-star knife on his body and went to Dong Zhuo's prime minister's mansion.
Dong Zhuo's guards all knew that Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo were on good terms, so Cao Cao entered the Prime Minister's Mansion smoothly.
Dong Zhuo has always had a habit of taking a nap, and Cao Cao chose to come at this time to take advantage of this opportunity to kill Dong Zhuo.
Cao Cao came to Dong Zhuo's bedroom, where Dong Zhuo was sleeping on the bed.
The opportunity could not be missed, Cao Cao pulled out the seven-star knife hidden in his arms, and walked towards Dong Zhuo gently, not daring to make a sound.
Getting closer and closer to Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao's heart became very nervous.
After finally approaching Dong Zhuo, Cao was ready to slash at Dong Zhuo's neck.
Just when a gust of wind blew the curtains, remembering the violent noise, Dong Zhuo was awakened and found Cao Cao standing in front of him with a knife, and said in shock: "Cao Cao, what do you want to do?!" ”
After falling short, Cao Cao was a traitor-level figure, his mind turned around all of a sudden, and he said with a smile: "Prime Minister, I recently got a peerless good knife, called the Seven Star Knife, and I specially came to dedicate it to the Prime Minister. ”
Cao Cao nodded and sent the Seven Star Knife to Dong Zhuo with both hands.
Dong Zhuo picked up the seven-star knife, found that it was indeed a good knife, and said with a smile: "Meng De really has a heart, and he likes it very much." Meng De deserves to be the most loyal subordinate of Benxiang. ”
After passing the test easily, Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a flattering face: "It's good if the prime minister likes it, as long as the prime minister is happy, he will not hesitate to go to the soup and go to the fire." ”
Dong Zhuo was very useful to Cao Cao's sycophants, and constantly played with the Seven Star Knife.
Cao Cao finally made an excuse and left the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After leaving the Prime Minister's Mansion, Cao Cao immediately left Luoyang. Cao Cao lied that he was on Dong Zhuo's orders to go out on errands, and the soldiers defending the city did not dare to stop him. After leaving the city gate, Cao Cao hurried to his hometown in Qian County.
Dong Zhuo liked this seven-star knife very much and kept playing with it. It wasn't until Li Ru came and listened to Li Ru's analysis that he realized that something was wrong.
Dong Zhuo hurriedly ordered someone to pass Cao Cao over, but who knew that he went to find Cao Cao's report that Cao Cao was no longer there.
Only then did Dong Zhuo know how dangerous he was just now, and Cao Cao wanted to assassinate himself just now.
In a fit of rage, Dong Zhuo issued a wanted document to arrest Cao Cao.
