The princes looked at He Chen's face pretending to be crazy and stupid, and couldn't help but sneer, everyone knew that this was a prevarication, but it made everyone speechless, and what they said was also the truth. Zhang Ji followed Dong Zhuo to the south and the north for more than ten years, with outstanding achievements and few defeats. If this guy can defeat him, it can be regarded as the ancestral tomb is smoking, and his luck is outrageous. It's just that one thing that everyone didn't expect is that this guy is far more cunning on the inside than he looks on the outside. Ordinary people would never say such a thing.

Yuan Shao was so angry, but he couldn't do it again, so he could only sulk. At this time, Sun Jian came out of the ranks, his eyes swept over He Chen with some disdain, and he quickly looked away, and said loudly: "Since He Taishou wants to rectify a few days, then the contemptible people will lead the army to fight Huaxiong." ”

"Wentai can fight well and bravely run through the three armies, if he leads the troops to fight, he will definitely defeat Huaxiong and boost the momentum of our coalition army." At this time, someone on the side came out to help.

He Chen directly ignored Sun Jian, and was told by Tian Feng and Xun You before, and his favorability towards him plummeted, and besides, isn't Wang Rui still alive? The eyes were attracted by the person who spoke, this person had a long oily head and powdered face, and he was not a good bird at first glance, and his lips were thin and pointed, which made people feel extremely mean and cold. A pair of eyes the size of a mung bean purr, making people wonder what bad idea was going on in their hearts.

"Highway, what you say makes sense." The princes chimed in.

"Highway? Isn't this person Yuan Shu? No wonder he agreed to Sun Jian's fight, this girl is full of bad water and uneasy and kind. Yuan Shu was very ambitious, and he coveted Sun Jian's martial arts, so he came up with a plan to drive the wolf and the tiger, if Sun Jian won, then he would recommend him for merit and sell face to Sun Jian. If Sun Jian is defeated, just take advantage of his vitality to absorb the elite soldiers of Changsha. It's a win-win.

With Sun Jian's IQ, it is estimated that he can also see that he is famous, but this person is extremely self-confident, and he has lost several times in a row to Hu Zhen, so he is even more confident, and he obviously does not take Hua Xiong in his eyes. He Chen thought secretly.

Yuan Shao saw that it was his younger brother Yuan Shu who spoke, so he agreed to keep his mouth shut and not say much.

The matter was thus settled, and after some discussion among the people, they dispersed. Before leaving, except for Sun Jian's greeting, all the princes ignored He Chen and left, only one looked at him with a smile not far away. This person is not tall, estimated to be in his early 160s, but he feels very capable, and his appearance is extremely ordinary, with thin eyes, long beards and wide mouths, but with a smile, his body exudes an outstanding and detached posture, obviously not an ordinary person.

He Chen's heart moved, so he greeted him and saluted: "I don't know why this general has a high surname, why is he laughing?" ”

The man obviously didn't expect He Chen to take the initiative to talk, and said with some surprise: "The prince of the mansion does not need to be polite, in Cao Ying, the county of Peiguo, since he heard about the feat of the monarch of the mansion, Cao someone has been floating three times in a row, and he only sighs that he has not been able to recognize each other." Now that my long-cherished wish has been presented, seeing the posture of the dragon and tiger of the prince, he is really not a mortal. ”

He Chen's eyes turned black, and he almost fainted. This person is Cao Ying? Subconsciously touched his waist with his hand, but it was empty. My heart sank, and then I remembered that when I entered the main village today, I had unmatched the sword, and I couldn't help hating in my heart, this was a golden opportunity, so I missed it in vain.

Cao Ying retracted his smile, looked at He Chen with his empty hand on his waist, and said suspiciously: "Fujun, you are ......?"

He Chen's sudden coming back to his senses was also due to his cleverness, and he laughed again and again: "Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde, have you forgotten this feat of several decades so quickly?" ”

Cao Ying looked at He Chen suspiciously, and then seemed to wake up to something, and laughed: "I see, it's a shame to say that the prince of the palace can kill all the eunuchs in the palace with three hundred dead soldiers, but Cao has a seven-star treasure knife but can only escape in embarrassment." ”

It turned out that Cao Ying was at Wang Yun's banquet before, and everyone was bitter about Dong Zhuo's atrocities, but Cao Ying laughed and bluntly said that he wanted to kill Dong Zhuo. Later, he borrowed Wang Yun's seven-star treasure knife to stab. As a result, Dong Zhuo was astute, Cao Yingxing could not stab the knife, and fled from Luoyang after failure, so he gathered an uprising. This is a story recorded in the romance, and there is no obvious record in history whether Cao Ying assassinated Dong Zhuo. But even so, He Chen also thinks that Cao Ying's story is really worth it.

Everyone knows that Cao Ying is known as the annihilation of the male, and he is the best at pretending to deceive the trust of others. The reason why Cao Ying can be called Jianxiong is that his IQ must be superior to others, and he is far-sighted, where would he not know that even if he kills Dong Zhuo, he will not be able to escape from Lu Bu's men or Kyoto's sphere of influence. As a generation of annihilators, he naturally does not want to become a pawn for others to fight for power and profit, let alone become a pawn of cannon fodder in this struggle, on the contrary, he should want to take the opportunity of assassinating Dong Zhuo to make enough political capital and prestige like He Chen, and set up a banner of justice for the future army.

Wang Yun's birthday banquet was full of people, and everyone was scratching and spitting together, and if he really wanted to kill Dong Zhuo, it was estimated that he would be dumb. But Cao Ying dared, and it seemed that he did so, and then he borrowed Wang Yun's seven-star treasure sword. Think about it, if Cao Ying really wants to assassinate Dong Zhuo, why do you have to pretend to be so high-profile? You must know that Dong Zhuo has a lot of power in his hands, who dares to pat his chest to guarantee that these people will not see the wind and rudder or Dong Zhuo's informant? Besides, since it is an assassination, as long as it is a dagger or a short knife, and it is also said in the romance that Cao Ying often enters and exits Dong Zhuo's gate, and there is no problem with a knife? It's certainly very easy to move. Then why did he still need Wang Situ's Seven-Star Treasure Sword? Therefore, He Chen thought that Cao Ying had no intention of assassinating Dong Zhuo from the beginning, but actually really went to sacrifice a knife, and then fled the capital, returned to his hometown and threatened to assassinate Dong Zhuo if he failed, and he would raise troops to fight. As a result, there are countless heroes in the world who come to vote, and they have also received the support of Wei Hong, a wealthy local businessman, who has used his family to buy clothes and banners, and countless people have sent food from all directions. It can be seen how important justice and reputation are.

Of course, these thoughts are just He Chen's own speculation, and only Cao Ying himself knows what the truth is.

He Chen suddenly had a shocking and bold idea in his mind, at this time, Cao Ying was still bent on supporting the Han family, although he was ambitious, he was only a desire for power, and he was far from the point of standing on his own and coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes. If you recruit him as a subordinate, I don't know what the subsequent world pattern will become? Thinking of this, He Chen smiled dumbly, and even he was happy with this whimsical idea. Of course, He Chen just thought about it casually, you must know that when He Jin was there, Cao Ying had already served as a military captain, and now he was acting as the general of Fenwu among the princes of the Eighteen Roads, no matter which official position was many times higher than himself, how to recruit people?

Many thoughts flew through his mind, and He Chen, who was full of hus, smiled heaps on his face, if it wasn't for the scar on his face that attracted attention, how honest and honest the expression looked, he couldn't make a plan, and he had a plan, and said with a smile on his face: "Meng De is a hero in the world, and he is very happy to know today, why don't you ask Meng De to move somewhere, and I will wait for a drunk tonight?" ”

Cao Ying pondered for a while, his eyes flashed, and suddenly he saw two majestic and extraordinary generals coming, and couldn't help but say happily: "Yuan Rang, Miaocai, why are you here?" ”

He Chen was stunned, isn't this Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan brothers? Damn, how can it be so coincidental? Is this time coming?

"The subordinates saw that the princes were gone, but the lord did not come out, I am afraid that something will happen, so I came to look for it." The one on the left is very tall, dressed in iron and heavy armor, and his face is full of flesh and beard.

"Haha, it's okay, come and see the world-famous Nanyang He Taishou." Cao Ying stretched out his hand to grab He Chen, and said with a smile on his face.

"I haven't seen Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan to He Taishou." The two of them saluted, and the sound was like a bell.

He Chen dragged the void with one hand, signaled that there was no need to be polite, gently broke free of Cao Ying's thick palm, and carefully observed the two generals, and then exclaimed: "Meng De's men are really fierce like clouds, I see that these two people are extraordinary, burly and strong, with thick palms and thick calluses, which must be caused by long-term use of weapons." ”

"Haha, why is it too good to keep his reputation, who in the world doesn't know that Taishou is the tiger general of the world?" Cao Ying laughed modestly.

He Chen failed in his plan three times and twice, and he was already a little interested, and then chatted a few more words, and then left.

Cao Ying looked at He Chen's departing back, his hearty smile gradually became a little gloomy, and his expression was solemn: "Yuan Rang, Miaocai, you can see He Chen's actions just now?" ”

The two nodded at the same time and said, "I can see it clearly." ”

"What do you think?" Cao Ying said coldly.

Xiahou Yuan said in a deep voice: "If you don't guess wrong, the first reaction of He Taishou when he saw the lord was to subconsciously draw his sword, which was not at all what he said about assassinating and offering a sword." ”

"What? You say He Chen wants to kill the lord? Xiahoudun, who understood, said angrily.

"Yuan let Hugh make a noise." Cao Ying scolded.

"It's just that his subordinates don't understand, the lord and He Chen have no grudges in the past, and there is no enmity in the near future, why does he want to kill the lord?" Xiahou Yuan also pulled Xiahou Yuan, signaled him to be calm for a while, and then said with a confused expression.

Cao Ying frowned, searched his bones and scraped his intestines for a long time, and finally said suspiciously: "Could it be that this guy is angry with General Ben because of He Jin's matter?" ”

Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan came to take refuge after Cao Ying raised his troops, and he was not clear about his previous affairs in Kyoto, so it was difficult to answer. The more Cao Ying thought about it, the more likely it became, and he trembled in horror: "Could it be that this person already knows that I deliberately fell ill and was bedridden?" Otherwise, how can you kill for no reason? "Although poor Cao Ying is a generation of heroes, he never thought that He Chen, this guy, came from the goods, and he was shocked to be killed.

"In that case, the lord should have made a decision." Xiahou Yuan said in a deep voice.

Cao Ying's eyes were shining, but his face was very calm and calm, it was difficult for outsiders to see what he thought, and he stomped back and forth for a while, Cao Ying said in a calm tone: "Let's go back to Dazhai first, maybe there is any misunderstanding in the middle." ”

The Xiahou Yuan brothers didn't talk much, so they left with Cao Ying.
