Chapter 42: Assassination of Dong Zhuo
Cao Cao has been thinking about it since he left Wang Yun's mansion, "I coveted Diao Chan's beauty, and I agreed to Lord Situ's wishes for a while, but within three days, it is not easy to end Dong Zhuo's life!" ”。
Although Cao Cao's original intention was to help the Han family and get rid of the traitor Dong Zhuo, it would take time to make a fool of himself, and now the seven-star sword in Cao Cao's hand is very difficult.
And Gao Fei has no contact with this Cao Cao, first, the big responsibilities are on Cao Cao's body, Gao Fei is willing to see this lively, and second, Gao Fei is also inconvenient to enter and exit in Li Ru's mansion, so that is to say, when the three people in Wang Yun's mansion were allied with blood, now they are basically pregnant with ghosts, Wang Yun, as an old fox hidden behind the scenes, naturally will not show up, so, as the people who are used as messengers, there are only Gao Fei and Cao Cao, and Cao Cao is also a person who took the big thing alone that day, so Gao Fei thought that if he didn't help, he wouldn't lose any morality.
Let's say that Dong Zhuo returned from outside the suburbs of Beijing, and he was naturally full of joy when hunting, and after returning to the house, he was also tired from the journey, so he went into the bedroom to sleep.
Cao Cao heard the news of Dong Zhuo's return to the house, and he didn't know if there was a chance to take advantage of it, anyway, a treasure knife, in his sleeve, "Wow", the horses galloped, and went straight to Xiangguo's mansion.
The Great Xiangguo Mansion is Dong Zhuo's first arrival in Beijing, and ordered someone to build a mansion, it took half a year, tens of thousands of laborers, and it was completed to build, and it was also this Dong Zhuo's poverty and luxury, and the huge Xiangguo Mansion couldn't live in him a fat man, and he actually had the leisure to go hunting in the suburbs of Beijing for fun, but Cao Cao understood that the so-called hunting was just to satisfy his Dong Zhuo's animal desires, killing people for fun, eating people for fun, Cao Cao thought about this, and couldn't wait for the root of his teeth to itch, "It's really killing Dong Zhuo and not relieving hatred!" ”。
When Cao Cao was resentful outside Xiangguo's mansion, several officials outside the mansion felt strange when they saw it, and asked, "Why did Captain Cao stop in front of the door, and I don't know what was silently reciting in his mouth?" ”。
Cao Cao was still thinking about it right now, but he didn't want to be hit by the officials outside Xiangguo's mansion, so he hurriedly changed his words, "Where is there any silent thought, it's just that I don't know if Dong Zhuo Xiangye has returned from hunting in the suburbs of Beijing?" ”。
A servant whispered, "Captain Cao is really well-informed, Dong Zhuo Xiangye returned to the house just now, but he is tired of carriages and horses, and he has already rested in the inner hall!" ”。
Cao Cao let out an "oh", "Since Dong Zhuo Xiangye has already rested, it is inconvenient for Meng De to disturb!" ”。
"Captain Cao Cao is looking for Xiangye?".
"It's not a big deal, it's just some things in the court, but Xiangye has been away from Beijing for a few days, and I don't know if Lu Dao still has time to pay attention to Xiangye today?" , Cao Cao's face was indifferent, looking anxious and worried.
The official said, "Since it's a matter of the court, I don't understand, but it's true that there can't be delayed, please enter the mansion and wait slowly, I believe that the prime minister will naturally meet!" ”。
Cao Cao was overjoyed, but he still made difficulties, "Xiangye has never had a life, so let me into the house like this, and don't search, wouldn't you be responsible!" ”。
The official smiled, "The captain is a frequent visitor to the mansion, and he is good friends with the master, how can he be treated as an ordinary person, and enter the mansion and wait for the master!" ”。
Cao Cao swaggered into Dong Zhuo's mansion, thousands of rooms, 100 courtyards, really a huge, and there are guards with armor all around, but they all know Cao Cao, and they don't care, I just think that it is Xiangye who summoned this captain, although Dong Zhuo's mansion is big, but Cao Cao also comes often, naturally he will not get lost, turn around, and shake to a study, after the guards on both sides make way for a path, Cao Cao entered the study.
The study is deserted, and there is a Huiyuan in the study, which is an inner court, that is, the usual place where the master rests, Cao Cao walked quietly, there were four maids on the left and right, shaking the fan and blowing the wind, and on the middle bed, there was a fat horizontal meat, which was Dong Zhuo.
Cao Cao saw the situation, "God really helps me, such a great opportunity, when will I wait?" Cao Cao pondered in his heart, and a few maids on the left and right called Captain Cao Cao, and they were not surprised, but two people walked to Cao Cao's side and shook the fan for him.
At noon in this time period, it is the time of the autumn tiger, the heat is unbearable, and Dong Zhuo is wide and fat, and he is sweating profusely, so when he rests and sleeps at noon, he must order the left and right to shake the wind with a feather fan.
"Such a big fat man, I don't know how much oil and water is in his stomach? Let's wait for me to disembowel you", Cao Cao thought to himself, waved his hand and took away the maids left and right, "You go first, I'll shake the fan for Xiangye, and there are more important things to discuss with Xiangye, and you don't have to wait!" ”。
Dong Zhuo has been in Beijing for some time, and Cao Cao has been attached to Dong Zhuo's door, not for a day or two, and everyone in the mansion knows that the Taoist minister trusts Cao Cao, so naturally there is no suspicion, so the four maids bowed down, showed courtesy, and retreated.
And Cao Cao looked around, there was only Dong Zhuo Lao'er in the room, it was really an opportunity not to be missed, and he would not come again, Cao Cao's cuffs were raised, and he pulled out a quick knife, which was the seven-star treasure knife given by Wang Yunxiang, the knife body was unsheathed, and a cold light burst out, and originally Dong Zhuo Lao'er was sleeping on his side, with his back to Cao Cao, but there was a bronze mirror on the head of the bed, which was the meaning of the ancients to take the mirror as a reference, but I didn't expect that Dong Zhuo on the bed at this moment was sweating because of the heat, and no one around him shook the fan, so he woke up in the heat, Suddenly, I saw a figure in the bronze mirror, and a cold light burst out in my hand, and I immediately woke up, "Who are you?" ”。
Cao Cao was startled, pulled out the seven-star knife in his hand, and immediately changed his gestures, the original one-handed knife became a two-handed knife, and Dong Zhuo immediately got up, holding the sword hanging on the bed in his hand, and suddenly the sword body was out of the sheath, but it turned out to be Cao Cao.
Dong Zhuo's expression was uncertain, "What does Meng De want?" Why was the old man in his sleep just now, through the bronze mirror, he saw a cold light, it must be a sharp weapon! ”。
Dong Zhuo pointed the long sword at Cao Cao, and Cao Cao was shocked, but immediately became calm, "Xiangye, don't doubt it, Cao Cao is here to sacrifice the sword", while speaking, he handed the seven-star knife he was holding in his hand to Dong Zhuo.
"The blade of the knife is shining, like a rainbow, is this knife any famous?" , Dong Zhuo took the knife in his hand, took a closer look, and it was really a good knife.
Cao Cao was a little relieved, "Xiangye, please look at the blade of the knife", Cao Cao pointed to the blade of the knife to Dong Zhuo, and sure enough, there were seven gems on the blade, and the light did not decrease.
"This knife is the Seven Star Treasure Knife?" , Dong Zhuo doesn't remember anything in the bronze mirror at all.
"It is the seven-star treasure knife, Meng De is not talented, and I got this treasure knife by chance, but I Cao Cao He De how can I dare to have this kind of treasure, so I came to think of dedicating it to Xiang Ye, the so-called treasure knife to the hero, it is my Cao Cao a little heart, but just now I entered the mansion, I saw Xiang Ye sleeping, I couldn't bear to disturb, so I stood aside, and saw that Xiang Ye was not resistant to heat flow, so I pulled out this knife" Cao Cao paused for a moment, and then slowly said, "This seven-star treasure knife, not only sharpens iron like mud, blows and breaks hair, but also the seven-star knife is warm and cold, and can avoid heat and drive away temperature, I don't want to be bumped into by Xiangye in the bronze mirror, I don't want to be misunderstood, Meng Dewan died, and he actually brought a knife into Xiangguo's mansion without permission, please punish Xiangye! ”。
Dong Zhuo didn't take Cao Cao's explanation seriously, but set his eyes on the Seven Star Knife, and couldn't stop admiring, "It's really a good knife!" And Dong Zhuo held the blade of the knife in his hand, and he actually felt a chill, "According to legend, this seven-star knife is a treasure handed down from the cold land of the Arctic, and it really deserves its name!" ”。
Cao Cao was overjoyed to see Dong Zhuo, and he also put his heart down, and turned to it, "Meng De said goodbye, please enjoy the treasure knife carefully!" ”。
When Cao Cao exited the study, a few drops of sweat fell from his head, but he was not discovered by Dong Zhuo, "It's really dangerous to survive!" Cao Cao didn't stop, he couldn't wait to leave this land of tigers and wolves immediately, but he didn't want to be in Dong Zhuo's mansion, so he walked a few steps quickly and ran into a man head-on.
Cao Cao was anxious, and when he looked closely, it turned out to be Wenhou Lu Bu, "Meng De is negligent, please don't be surprised by Wenhou!" ”。
Lu Bu came from outside, carrying a Fang Tian painting halberd, wearing silver armor, domineering, and he didn't want to see this Cao Cao, he just spit on himself and continued to move forward.
Cao Cao didn't mind this Lu Bu despising him, but it was important to leave this place as soon as possible, if Dong Zhuo reacted to it, he really couldn't leave.
Not to mention that this Dong Zhuo's mansion is both deep and big, and when Cao Cao stepped out of the gate of Xiangguo's mansion with his front feet, suddenly a loud shout came from behind him, "Cao Cao, don't go!" ”。
Cao Cao turned around and saw that it was Wenhou Lu Bu who he had just bumped into, and secretly exclaimed, "Have you been recognized?" My life is at rest! ”。
