That night, Wang Yun held a banquet in the back hall, and the ministers came. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

After several rounds of drinking, Wang Yun suddenly hid his face and cried. The officials asked in surprise, "Sikong Guishi, why are you crying sadly?" ā€

Wang Yun said with tears streaming down his face: "Today is not my birthday, because I want to talk to everyone, and I am afraid that Dong Zhuo will suspect me, I deliberately said that it was my birthday." Now that Dong Table is bullying the lord and gaining power, it is difficult to protect the society. If you want Emperor Gao to punish Qin and destroy Chu, there will be the world. Who wants to pass it on to the present, but it is lost in the hands of Dong Table. I want to cry when I think of these things. ā€

After hearing this, all the officials also burst into tears. Only one person stroked his palms and laughed: Although Cao is not talented, "The Minister of the Manchu Dynasty, crying until Ming at night, crying until the night, can you still cry Dong Zhuo to death?" ā€

Wang Yun raised his eyes and saw that it was Cao Cao, the captain of the military academy. Wang Yun was furious: "Your ancestors also ate the Han Dynasty, and now they don't think about serving the country but laugh, what is the reason?" ā€

Cao Cao said: "I'm not laughing at anything else, I'm just laughing at everyone for having no plan to kill Dong Zhuo." He made a wish to cut off Dong Zhuo's head and hang it under the city gate to thank the world. ā€

Wang Yun left the table and asked Cao Cao, "What is Mengde's opinion?" ā€

Cao Cao said: "Recently, I stooped down to follow Dong Zhuo, in fact, I wanted to take the opportunity to kill him. Now Dong Zhuo believes in me and can get close to Dong Zhuo from time to time. I heard that Situ has a seven-star treasure knife, please lend me to the Prime Minister's Mansion to assassinate him, even if he dies, I will not regret it! ā€

Wang Yun turned his anger into joy and said: "Meng Deguo is a person with a heart, and the world is very lucky!" He personally poured a glass of wine and handed it to Cao Cao. Cao Cao spilled wine on the ground and swore that 'he would use this knife to kill Dong Thief'.

Wang Yun summoned someone to take out the treasure knife and handed it to Cao Cao. Cao Cao hid his knife, took a sip of the wine in the cup, got up and said goodbye to the officials. The rest of the people sat down a little longer, and then all dispersed.

The next day, Cao Cao came to the Prime Minister's Mansion with a treasure knife and asked, "Where is the Prime Minister?" ā€

The Prime Minister's Mansion said: "In the small pavilion." ā€

Cao Cao walked straight in and saw Dong Zhuo sitting on the bed with Lu Bu standing on his side.

Dong Zhuo said: "Why is Meng De late? Cao Cao bowed and said, "Matthew, you can't go fast." So it's late. ā€

Dong Zhuo turned his head to Lu Bu and said, "I have a good horse from Xiliang, and I will personally go and pick a horse to give to Meng De." ā€

Lu Bu nodded and agreed. Cao Cao thought secretly: "This thief deserves to die!" He immediately wanted to pull out a knife and assassinate Dong Table, but he was afraid that Dong Zhuo would be powerful and didn't dare to move lightly. The two gossiped a little. Dong Zhuoren was fat and couldn't sit for a long time, so he lay on his back, and then turned around to face inside.

Cao Cao thought again: "This thief should be rested!" "I have a sword in my hand, and I am about to kill. I didn't want Dong Zhuo to see the mirror from the side, and saw Cao Cao pulling out a knife behind his back, so he hurriedly turned around and asked, "What is Meng De doing?" ā€

At this time, Lu Bu had already led the horse outside the pavilion.

Cao Cao saw that things were not good, so he knelt down with a knife and said, "I have a treasure knife and want to offer my favor." ā€

Dong Zhuo took it and took a look: the knife is more than a foot long, and the seven treasures are inlaid with seven treasures, which is extremely sharp, and it is really a treasure knife. Seeing Lu Bu coming in, he handed it to Lu Bu casually and received it. Cao Cao immediately unsheathed his sword and handed it to Lu Bu. Dong Zhuo took Cao Cao out of the pavilion to see the horse, and Cao Cao thanked him: "I am willing to test ride." ā€

Dong Zhuo called for someone to hand over the saddle bridle. Cao Cao led his horse out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, whipped and galloped to the southeast.

Lu Bu said to Dong Zhuo with a little suspicion: "Cao Cao seemed to have been stabbed just now, and he was drunk, so he deduced that he would sacrifice the knife." ā€

Dong Zhuo nodded and said, "I'm also a little skeptical. While he was talking, Li Ru arrived, and Dong Zhuo told him what had just happened.

Li Ru said: "Cao Cao has no wife and is in Beijing, and he only lives alone in his apartment. Now send someone to summon, and if there is no plot to come, it is to offer the sword. If they can't be prevaricated, they will be assassinated, and they can be caught and interrogated. ā€

Dong Zhuo nodded yes, and immediately sent someone to summon Cao Cao. After going for a long time, he came back and reported: "Cao Cao did not return home, and flew out of the east gate on horseback." A doorman asked him, and Cao Cao said, "I have an urgent business" and rode away. ā€

Li Ru said: "Cao Cao escaped as a thief, and there is no doubt that he will be assassinated." Dong Zhuo was furious: "I use it so much, I want to harm me!" ā€

Li Ru said: "There must be an accomplice in this, as long as you hold Cao Cao and ask." ā€

Dong Zhuo ordered all over the paperwork, drawing shadows and graphics, and arresting Cao Cao. Whoever catches and offers Luoyang will be rewarded with a thousand gold and sealed ten thousand households. Harbourers are guilty of the same crime.

Cao Cao escaped from the city and rushed to Qian County. Passing through ZM County, he was accidentally captured by the sergeant guarding the pass. Push to the county office. The county order of this county is surnamed Chen Minggongzi Gongtai. A native of Dongwuyang, Dongjun County, Yanzhou, he has been smart since he was a child, a famous teacher, and a wise name. When Chen Gong heard that he had caught someone suspected of Cao Cao, he called him to come to the court.

Chen Gong saw that the person who came looked like Cao Cao, and secretly understood, but he didn't move, just said loudly: "It's Cao Cao, why do you want to betray the prime minister, do you have something to say?" ā€

Cao Cao hurriedly said: "I am not Cao Cao, I am a merchant left by Chen, and my surname is Huangfu." ā€

Chen Gong looked at Cao Cao for a while, pondered for a long time, and said: "I used to seek officials in Luoyang, and I once recognized you as Cao Cao, how to hide it!" And bring it to prison, and tomorrow I will go to Beijing to ask for a reward. ā€

In the middle of the night, Chen Gong summoned his entourage to secretly take out Cao Cao, and interrogated him carefully in the backyard: "I heard that the prime minister treats you well, why did you bring trouble on yourself?" ā€

Cao Cao saw that there must be a reason for the arraignment in the middle of the night, knowing that it was really difficult to hide, Cao Cao straightened his waist and said: "The bird's ambition is clear!" Since you have taken me, let me go and ask for a reward. Why ask! ā€

Chen Gongzhi would not be wrong, and he also appreciated Cao Cao's ambition, retreated left and right, and said to Cao Cao: "Don't underestimate me. I'm not an ordinary layman, but I just haven't met the master. ā€

Cao Cao said: "My ancestors ate Hanlu in the world, if you don't want to serve the country, how is it different from beasts?" I stooped down to follow Dong Zhuo, just to take the opportunity to kill him and eliminate harm for the country. It can't be done now, it's the will of God! ā€

Chen Gong said: "What do you want to do on Meng De's trip?" ā€

Cao Cao said: "I will return to the township and gather the princes of the world to raise troops to punish Dong Zhuo, this is my wish." ā€

When Chen Gong heard this, he personally loosened his ties, helped him to sit down, and bowed again: "Cao Gong is really a loyal and righteous person in the world!" Cao Cao hurriedly bowed back and asked for Chen Gong's name.

Chen Gong said: "My surname is Chen, my name is Gonggong, and the word is Gongtai." The old mother and wife are all in East County. Today, I deeply feel the loyalty of Cao Gong, and I am willing to abandon my official position and flee with Cao Gong. ā€

Cao Cao was overjoyed. That night, Chen Gong packed up the plate fee, changed clothes with Cao Cao, each carried a sword, and rode away to Peiguo. After walking for three days, it was late when I arrived at Chenggao. Cao Cao pointed to the depths of the dense forest with his whip and said to Chen Gong: "There is a person here whose surname is Lu, whose name is Boyu, and he is my father's righteous brother; How about asking for news at home and borrowing for a night? ā€

Chen Gong said: "The best." The two of them dismounted in front of the village and met Lu Bohao. Lu Boyu was shocked: "I heard that the court is full of documents, and it is very urgent to arrest you, and your father has avoided Chen." How did you get here? ā€

Cao Cao told him about the past, saying, "If it weren't for the order of Chen County, he would have been crushed." ā€

Lu Bo bowed to Chen Gong and said: "If the little nephew is not the envoy, the Cao family will be destroyed." So that Jun Kuanhuai can rest assured, he will stay in the grass hut tonight. Then he got up and went in. After a while, he came out and said to Chen Gong: "The old man's family has no good wine, so let me go to the West Village to treat each other in a bottle." After saying that, he hurriedly got on the donkey and left.

Cao Cao sat with Chen Gong for a while, and suddenly heard the sound of sharpening knives behind the village. Cao Cao was suspicious in his heart, and said to Chen Gong: "Lu Boyu and I are not close relatives, this is suspicious, and go eavesdropping." ā€

The two sneaked into the back of the cottage, only to hear someone say, "Are you bound?" ā€

Cao Cao was shocked: "Alas! If you don't strike first, you will be captured. So he drew his sword with Chen Gong and went straight in, killing all of them regardless of men and women, and killing eight people in a row. When I searched the kitchen, I saw a pig tied up, as if it was about to be killed

怂 Chen Gong said: "Meng De has a lot of heart, and he killed a good person by mistake!" "Hurriedly get out of the village and get on the horse and leave. After walking less than two miles, I saw Lu Boxuan hanging two bottles of wine in front of the saddle of the donkey, and came with fruit in his hand, and when he saw Cao Cao, he shouted: "Why did the virtuous nephew and the envoy go?" ā€

Cao Cao said casually: "Those who are guilty dare not live for a long time." ā€

Lu Boyu said: "There is no good food at home, and I have paid my family to slaughter a pig." Why don't the virtuous nephews and envoys want to stay overnight? Please go back quickly. Cao Cao didn't dare to agree, so he rode his horse and left. I couldn't walk a few steps, and my mind turned. Drawing his sword and turning around, he said to Lu Boyu: "Who is behind you?" When Lu Boyao looked back, Cao Cao swung his sword and cut Lu Boyao off the donkey. Chen Gong was shocked: "Meng Degong! I just misunderstood, what is the reason now? Cao Cao said: "When Bo Lu arrived home and saw that many people had been killed, how could he be willing to rest?" If we lead a crowd after us, we will be plagued. Chen Gong said: "Knowing that you are wrong and deliberately killing people is a great injustice!" Cao Cao looked into the distance and said with a firm face: "Rather teach me to bear the world, and stop teaching the world to bear me." Chen Gong's expression was gloomy.
