720, Zhu Wen asked for his life to punish the rebel thief, and Lu Bu raided and assassinated Cao Ren

Even though what Zhu Wen said was high-sounding and righteous, Liu Xie didn't believe his words at all, because he always remembered that his child died in the hands of Jiang Xuanhui, and Jiang Xuanhui was Zhu Wen's former subordinate. Although Liu Xie hated Cao Cao, he also had no good impression of Zhu Wen. Besides, Zhu Wen suddenly appeared and said these inexplicable words, he couldn't believe that Cao Cao had sent him to test him.

"Prime Minister Cao Cheng is a pillar of the country, and he has no merits, and General Zhu cannot slander him like this."

Zhu Wen sneered and said, "Your Majesty, has you forgotten the death of Empress Dong Guifei?" Could these be the deeds of the Cao thief that His Majesty said? ”

Hearing this, Liu Xie couldn't help but roar angrily: "Not only do I remember the death of Concubine Dong and Empress Fu, but I also remember that my prince died tragically at the hands of Jiang Xuanhui, you and Cao Cao are in the same stream, why bother acting here, what you want to do, just say it!" ”

Zhu Wen took two steps forward and shouted bitterly: "Your Majesty! The rebellious person Jiang Xuanhui was co-opted by Cao Cao and did such a rebellious thing, every time the minister thought of it, his heart was like a knife, and he regretted that he had not slashed him with a knife. But the big mistake has been made, Your Majesty, now the Cao thief is embattled, please kill the Cao thief and the family, otherwise if Your Majesty blames the minister, please ask Your Majesty to kill the minister, to thank the world! ”

Liu Xie thought in his heart: If you want to die, you can kill yourself, but when he saw a tiger general behind Zhu Wen, holding a sharp blade, staring at him, he didn't dare to say anything. Liu Xie held back his anger and said with a smile: "General Zhu's loyalty can be seen, I, how can I blame you!" It's just that in Xudu, Cao Cao has a lot of henchmen, and if he wants to kill him, how difficult it is, if something goes wrong and he is victimized, then it's not good! ”

Zhu Wen smiled and said, "Your Majesty doesn't have to worry! Cao thief acted perversely, most of the Chinese martial arts of the dynasty had already looked at him unpleasantly, and now he was out on a campaign and never returned, Xu Du's soldiers and horses were only a few thousand, and there were 10,000 troops under his subordinates, how easy it was to deal with them. And the generals outside, in addition to Cao Cao, Cao Ren and other soldiers and horses, Yang Lin and Han Biao, who were loyal ministers of the Han family, Your Majesty can secretly issue a secret decree to kill Cao Thief, and he will inevitably be the head of His Majesty! As for Cao Ren, he heard that his Xiangyang was defeated, and his troops were lost, and now there are only thousands of remnants left to rush to Xudu, and if he wants to get rid of it, he only needs to use a little trick. So what's the fear? ”

Originally, Liu Xie hated Cao Cao to the core, but now that he heard that Zhu Wen had thought about all the things that killed Cao Cao, he was naturally very happy, even if this person who helped him avenge himself was not a good bird, he also admitted it.

"Good! I will issue an order now, seal and crown General Zhu as a hussar general, and be fully responsible for the killing of Cao Thief. It's just that now the jade seal, the jade seal is still in Cao Cao's mansion, if the general raids the house, you must pay attention. ”

Zhu Wen grinned, and then bowed down, "The minister will definitely do his best for His Majesty to help protect the Han family!" ”

On the second day, Zhu Wen left with the army, nominally to Chenliu to resist Zhang He's army, but in fact, he turned a corner and rushed directly to Cao Ren's army on the way back to the army, and met Cao Ren's army in Kunyang.

At this time, where was the army of Cao Ren and Zhang Liao, there were about 6,000 people, but after this defeat, the army had no morale, and there were only Zhang Liao, Lu Bu, Shi Lang, Liang Xi, Jia Kui and others. When Cao Ren saw Zhu Wen's army approaching, he was quite surprised, and hurriedly asked Zhu Wen to come up and question.

Zhu Wen took Zhang Han and others to Cao Ren together, and said: "General Zhengnan, it has not been long before he has fallen so far, which is really embarrassing!" ”

Cao Ren looked at Zhu Wen with a cautious face, and shouted, "Zhu Wen! I don't need you to take care of my affairs, aren't you stationed in Ruyin? Why is it here? What happened? ”

"Ruyin was defeated, so I retreated to Xudu to bless the safety of the Son of Heaven. I heard that General Zhengnan was newly defeated, and the Son of Heaven asked me to pass on the edict and encourage the general. ”

Zhu Wen smiled, looked at Cao Ren with a gentle face, Cao Ren's eyes became more and more doubtful, his hand was already on the saber at his waist, looked at Zhu Wen and said, "Where is the edict of the Son of Heaven?" ”

At this time, I saw Zhu Wen take out an edict from his cuffs, and then his expression changed, and he shouted: "Cao Ren kneels to accept the edict of the Son of Heaven!" ”

Cao Ren was about to have a seizure, but seeing such a large public, he was a little hesitant in his heart, and he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so he turned over and dismounted, and at the same time motioned for Zhang Liao and Lu Bu to follow him, before he came to Zhu Wen, knelt down and saluted: "Minister, Cao Ren, is edicted!" ”

"Cao Cao is a traitor, a great rebellion, and a bully to the king, I specially ordered the hussar general Zhu Wen to kill Cao and the thief on the spot, and the old and young ......"

Before Zhu Wen finished reading, Cao Ren's face had changed greatly, and he quickly got up, pulled out his sword, and scolded angrily: "Zhu Wen, do you want to rebel?" It's up to you, you're still too tender, whoever dares to kill me, who can kill me! ”

Cao Ren finally understood what Zhu Wen meant by these famous halls at this time, he knew that something must have happened to Xu Du, even if this Zhu Wen was an edict, it must be that he controlled the overall situation.

"Haha, Cao Ren Xiao'er, this is the edict of the Son of Heaven, people say: The king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die! What else do you have to say? ”

Zhu Wen looked at Cao Ren with a sneer, and Cao Ren shouted: "Zhu Wen rebelled, who will take it for me!" ”

As soon as Cao Ren finished speaking, he only heard a loud roar: "Lu Bu was ordered to kill the traitor!" Cao Ren breathed a sigh of relief at this time, with Lu Bu here, even if this Zhu Wen had an army of 10,000, he might not be able to take advantage of himself.

Just as Cao Ren looked back, he saw an afterimage coming towards him, he didn't have time to react at all, he felt a pain in his heart, and looked closely, wasn't it Lu Bu's Fang Tian Painting Halberd that passed through his body?

Mutation protrusion! Even Zhang Liao, who was beside Lu Bu, didn't expect how all this happened, but seeing that Lu Bu suddenly attacked Cao Ren, he didn't care about anything, and stabbed Lu Bu with a shot, wanting to save Cao Ren. At this time, Zhang Han beside Zhu Wen also followed closely, he shot very fast, Zhang Liao thought of Cao Ren in his heart, and did not pay attention to Zhang Han, and was suddenly put on Zhang Liao's neck by Zhang Han's weapon.

At this time, Cao Ren couldn't believe that Lu Bu actually shot at him, and he said with his last strength: "Lu ...... Cloth...... Piff ...... You, how do you ......"

Lu Bu laughed and said, "When Cao Cao took my concubine that day, did you expect that there would be today?" I'll let you know what the hatred of taking a wife is! ”

After speaking, Lu Bu suddenly pulled out the halberd, Cao Ren fell down softly, and Zhang Liao and other civil and military forces behind Cao Ren shouted together: "General Zhengnan!" ”
