In the first year of Chuping, that is, in 190 AD, at the beginning of the lunar calendar.

With the continuous and dull bells of the early morning, the Zijin Luan Hall of the Eastern Han Dynasty ended its first early dynasty.

Dong Zhuo, who was proud of the spring breeze and held great power, and could even strictly control the words and deeds of the court, rushed from the Jinluan Palace with a shy stomach, and walked out step by step.

Dressed in a black and red but extremely loose official uniform, it still can't cover Dong Zhuo's increasingly fat body, and Dong Zhuo, who has entered his fifties, has gray hair, and his volume is getting more and more... Swell.

"Time is a knife to kill pigs, and one knife at a time urges people to grow old."

Perhaps, if Dong Zhuo knew this sentence in later generations, he would definitely sigh and take it as his motto.

Time has passed, and Dong Zhuo, who could pull out the ten-stone strong bow in the early years and shocked the Qiang people in the name of heroism, is no longer what he used to be.

Now, he has been intoxicated by the prosperity and power of Kyoto, and he has lost his direction, and he is getting fatter and fatter every day, as if he is about to lose his breath.

"Ah~ahh

"Ahh , a happy sneeze came out.

"Boom!" Behind him, the civil and military officials pressed their waists even lower, for fear that Dong Zhuo would kill them on a whim.

"It's boring, hehehe~!" Dong Zhuo looked at the so-called civil and military officials lying on the ground, and smiled proudly.

He laughed unpleasantly, like the clatter of a compressor, or the wheezing of a fat pig.

"This is the minister of the Great Han?"

"Heh~, they are all a group of corpse vegetarian people, hey, little emperor, you have to see them clearly, and the loyalty of the old man, without the old man, the big man is worried~"

Dong Zhuo's words without concealing the volume lingered in the palace, making the little emperor's face reveal a gloom that did not belong to this age.

Countless old ministers who claim to be loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty twitched, and the folds on them became more and more horizontal.

But!

In the face of Dong Zhuo, the ministers were terrified, and no one dared to come out to refute!

Because those who dare to refute have been... He's dead.

First there was Shang Shu Ding Guan, and then there was Captain Wu Fu, who splattered the palace with blood, and tried to refute Dong Zhuo at the cost of his life.

However, they all failed, and the Manchus were punished!

In the face of Dong Zhuo's threat of raiding his family and exterminating his clan at every turn, these self-proclaimed loyal literati and military ministers also had to give in and bow their heads.

The emperor takes turns to sit on the throne, and only the family is the most important thing in their eyes!

Anyway, the little emperor is still safe, isn't he?

While thinking like this, everyone's heads lowered lower.

"Hahaha~!"

Dong Zhuo, who was satisfied with everyone's performance, twisted his nose, swayed his fat head, and walked out of the hall in a leisurely manner.

"The early dynasty is over! Retreat~! ”

After Dong Zhuo's figure completely disappeared at the corner of the hall, a long shout that was sharp and without losing the characteristics of ancient China sounded leisurely.

The little emperor who seemed isolated and helpless, Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, also slowly stepped out of the palace surrounded by eunuchs on the left and right.

After Dong Zhuo and the emperor were far away, the ministers and ministers dispersed.

The little yellow door at the door looked at Dong Zhuo's back as he walked away, and after his eyes wandered, he turned back sneakily and walked towards the inner hall.

There, the ministers and ministers who retreated from the dynasty gathered together.

After all, Dong Zhuo is the only one who can ignore the rules and go to the palace with a sword.

Everyone else had to take off their shoes, and the shoes were placed in an open space outside the hall, where the little yellow men were responsible for waiting for the ministers to put on their shoes.

"Lord Situ Wang celebrates his birthday today, and he has prepared a banquet in the mansion, and I want to invite Lord Taifu to the mansion for a gathering!" Looking left and right, Xiao Huangmen, who was waiting for Taifu Yuan Huai, said in a low voice.

"Oh? Have you invited Dong Zhuo? Yuan Huai asked.

"No..."

"Okay, go back and tell Wang Situ, just say that Yuan will go to the banquet on time." Yuan Huai pondered for a moment and replied.

"Nuo~" Xiao Huangmen's eyes rolled wildly, but he did not retreat in a hurry, but quietly wandered among the crowd.

"Be sure to be on time!" "It will definitely arrive", and soon, many of the princes and ministers responded and gave a clear promise.

After handing over the message to the main target, Xiao Huangmen stopped talking, chose an opportunity, and slipped out.

After everyone left, only one person was left, and he put on his shoes, squinting his eyes, staring at the back of the little yellow door walking away, thinking about it, and also striding towards the temple gate.

This man, who was also wearing court clothes, was not tall, probably less than 170 centimeters.

His complexion is a little dark, his figure is slightly bloated, which makes his limbs look a little short, his eyes are small but exude a dazzling essence, and his long hair under his chin sets off an extraordinary temperament......

His name, placed in the present, may not be cared about and valued by many people, but in the future generations, it will be like a bomb, rumbling and deafening.

His name is Cao Cao!

"Yuan Gong is slow~, Yuan Gong is slow~" Several officials were talking to Taifu Yuan Huai, but they heard a cry, turned their heads to look, but saw Cao Cao catching up from behind.

"That's the case, Mrs. Yuan stays!" , Several people didn't seem to be very interested in Cao Cao, and immediately left, leaving only Yuan Huai, the prince of the dynasty, there.

Seeing the backs of those people in the distance, Cao Cao smashed his mouth, and while walking to Yuan Huai's side, he laughed at himself: "Oops! Everyone is a minister of the same dynasty, but some benevolent brothers, it seems, are ashamed to be with me Cao Cao! ”。

Yuan Huai mocked: "Meng De really has insight!" ”

In the words and words, he also made no secret of his dissatisfaction with Cao Cao, and Cao Cao, who flattered Dong Zhuo, made him look down on him.

As the fourth and third dukes, he doesn't need to hide his attitude, let alone care about Cao Cao's opinion!

didn't care about Yuan Huai's ridicule, Cao Cao bowed and saluted: "If Master Meng doesn't give up, I want to be with you!" Do you want to walk a few steps with Taifu without being committal? ”。

He and Yuan Huai's nephews Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are all young, and he still maintains some respect for Yuan Huai.

"I want to hear about it!" The two saluted each other, "Please!" "Please! ”

After walking a few steps, Cao Cao asked seemingly casually: "Taifu Yuan, today is Wang Situ's birthday?" ”。

"Meng De not only has good eyesight, but also his hearing is not bad!" Yuan Huai was stunned for a moment, and then sneered.

Seeing that Yuan Huai's words were thorny, Cao Cao was not very happy.

However, after all, he is a profound figure in the city government, and he still has a smile on his face despite his unhappiness: "You say, why did Xiao Huangmen, who spoke for Wang Situ, invite you all to go, but didn't invite me Cao Cao?" You must know that I respect you former emperors and former ministers the most! Especially the most respected Wang Situ! ”

"Hehe, then you have to ask yourself, as I said at the foot, why didn't Wang Situ invite guests but didn't invite you Cao Cao?" Yuan Huai did not answer directly, but playfully threw the question back to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao stopped, and at this time, he also held his breath in his heart, and couldn't help sneering: "Mrs. Yuan's words are really a good question!" ”

"Since it's good, then please don't hesitate to give advice!"

"I think it's because the invitees are all from famous families and have received the emperor's grace! And I, Cao Cao, am a eunuch and a pickled eunuch in your eyes, how can a lowly person be in the company of the Venerables? Cao Cao said without changing his face;

"Hahahaha!" , Yuan Huai sneered: "Oops! Cao Mengde can talk about this realm, which is already amazing! But! - And for some reason! ”

"Oh? Scold! I also know a thing or two, but does Mrs. Yuan really want me to say it? With a narrowing of his eyes, Cao Cao laughed.

"Of course, you're going to walk with the old man! If you don't walk the same way, what does it mean to be the walking dead? ”

"Good! Then I'll say it! The invitees are all former ministers of the former emperor and confidants of the imperial party headed by Wang Yun, but I, Cao Cao, in your opinion, have a contemptuous character, are willing to be an eagle dog, and stoop to be a thief! Cao Cao stopped, a hint of coldness on the corner of his mouth.

"Do you think that a certain Cao Cao is the minions of the national thief Dong Zhuo?" A few days closer, a low tone sounded in Yuan Huai's ears, like thunder!

"You, you... Be quiet! Yuan Huai pointed at Cao Cao tremblingly, he didn't expect Cao Cao to be so bold!

"What's wrong? Mrs. Yuan? The word thief has long been hated and broken by you ministers! heartbreaking? Cao Cao stared at Yuan Huai and continued.

"Huh, what? Now in broad daylight, in the Jingshi Palace, he doesn't dare to say it out loud? ”

"Huh? Don't you regard the Golden Luang Temple as a holy place? So many sanctimonious ministers and ministers were silent and frightened! This made me see what is respect and what is humility, and I saw a different artistic conception of respect and humility! A small sneeze turns the pretentious into rats! ”

The more Cao Cao spoke, the more angry he became, and his whole person's momentum rose, and he no longer cared about the problem of face.

"You, you, you!" Yuan Huai was angry for a while, and was ashamed of Cao Cao's words!

"Hahahaha!" Cao Cao laughed wildly, turned around and walked away, and felt that he really had a bad breath!

He has held back these words for too long, but now he has seen through them, some people are just hypocritical and unaccustomed to it.

He Cao Cao, disdainful of being in company, rather than just talking like these people here, it is better to put it into action!
