Chapter 147 Gongtaizhong deceived Cao Cao, and Meng Decheng Gao harmed Bo Luxury

The above book mentioned that Cao Cao carried a knife to seek Dong Zhuo, but was discovered by Dong Zhuo. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info He was quick-witted, and hurriedly prevaricated on the pretext of offering a knife; I also saw Lu Bu leading the horse in front of the pavilion, pretending to try the horse, escaped from Luoyang, and galloped towards Qiaojun.

When Dong Zhuo heard it, he traveled all over the documents, drew pictures and graphics, and wanted to arrest him. Those soldiers who spread the documents were far faster than Cao Cao's single-handedness.

Cao Cao came out of the tiger prison, and just arrived in Xingyang, the sun was already setting to the west. At this time, he also had to take into account the physical strength of the horse, and rode the horse forward, sometimes tight and sometimes slow, so as not to let the horse lose his physical strength too early.

It was getting late, and the farmer had already turned on the lights. A bright light appeared in the distance, and he rode his horse. And behold, there was a city, and the gates were closed. Two torches are hung above the city gate, illuminating the plaque above the city tower, on which three big characters are written "Zhongmu County".

He shouted to the guards of the city: "The military lord of the city, I am a passing merchant, and the road is delayed, and I hope that you military masters will be able to accommodate." ”

The city sergeant shouted: "The family has its own rules, and the country has its own laws." My Zhongmu County has its own rules of Zhongmu County. When the sun sets, the city gates are closed. Thou shalt enter the city, but thou shalt speak until the morrow is daylight. ”

Cao Cao saw that there was not even a village in these four places, where to stay? It's better to give these two soldiers some benefits, and they can get into the city in exchange for a little. After thinking about it, he took out a few pieces of broken silver from his arms and threw them on the city wall: "A little silver taels for all the military masters to drink and eat, and talk about the villain's heart." At such a night, there are many mosquitoes, and I hope that the military master will be able to absorb one or two. ”

The soldiers guarding the city above picked up the pieces of broken silver with torches, and checked them with their hands, feeling that there were a few taels. The two glanced at each other, discussed in a low voice, and then quietly opened the city gate and let Cao Cao in.

Cao Cao thanked the guards of the city and went to the post station in the city.

When he had gone away, one of the two guards suddenly said, "Hey, how can I see this man so familiar?" Where do you seem to see it? By the way, the notice posted in the afternoon! ”

"You say that this person is the person who is wanted?" Another asked.

"Not bad! Otherwise, you and I will watch carefully! With that, the two went out of the city to the place where the notice was posted, and watched with torches.

Sure enough, it was Cao Cao's portrait. That Cao Cao was in a hurry and did not pay attention to these notices. The sergeants who carried the notices on the road passed along the avenue, much faster than Cao Cao did by taking the path. also has this catastrophe with Cao Cao!

The two watched and determined that Cao Cao was similar to the person who made the notice, and hurriedly closed the city gate and reported to the county government.

The county government has its own guards on duty, and the leader on duty is a head catcher. Hearing this, he took more than a dozen officials to arrest him, rushed to the post station with locks and flails, forcibly knocked on the post station, and broke in. After asking the owner of the post station, he took people directly to Cao Cao's room.

Cao Cao had just finished washing up and was about to fall asleep when he was alarmed by a noisy sound. Xindao: Not good!

He was just about to rush out of the door, but he was quickly blocked by the catcher and a group of officials.

The head catcher asked Cao Cao to escort him to the county government and go to see the county order. The county magistrate had just fallen asleep, and when he heard that Cao Cao had been captured, he hurriedly changed his clothes and came to the front hall.

Cao Cao saw that the county order came out, and defended himself: "My lord, I am a merchant who travels back and forth between the capital and the county, and my surname is Huangfu. ”

The county magistrate's eyes widened, staring at Cao Cao, looking at it for a long time, and after a long silence, he said: "When I was seeking an official in Luoyang before, I knew that you were Cao Cao, how to hide it!" And bring it to prison, and tomorrow I will go to Beijing to ask for a reward. ”

Subsequently, he sent people to fetch wine and food for the guards, head catchers, and officials, and escorted Cao Cao to prison. Cao Cao was full of emotion in prison, and said in his heart that he was enthusiastic and wanted to do a great career, and he had previously taken refuge in He Jin, thinking that he could be promoted to become rich as soon as possible; Who knows that He Jin has no plan, luring Dong Zhuo, the evil god, and causing chaos in the court. This time, he assassinated Dong Zhuo and was discovered by him, although he escaped, but he fell into the hands of this villain, how can it be good?

He was in prison like an ant on a hot pan, and he was in a hurry.

In the middle of the night, the county commander summoned his relatives to secretly take out Cao Cao from prison and bring him to the back hall for interrogation, and asked: "I heard that the prime minister took you deeply, and often called you a cronie, why did you bring disaster on yourself this time?" ”

When Cao Cao heard this, he snorted coldly in his nose, and said with a rather disdainful expression: "The bird's nest knows the ambition of the bird!" When thou hast seized me, thou hast delivered me and asked for a reward. Why bother! ”

The county commander smiled uncertainly, raised his hand and waved back left and right, came to Cao Cao's approach, and said to Cao Cao: "You Xiu underestimates me. I am not a layman, but I have not met his master's ear! ”

Cao Cao Zhengyan said: "My ancestors ate Hanlu in the world, if they don't think about serving the country, how is it different from beasts?" I stoop to Dong Zhuo, I really want to find an opportunity to get rid of the harm for the country. It can't be done now, it's the will of God! ”

The county magistrate asked again: "Where will Meng De go on this trip?" And what do you want? ”

"I will return to my hometown, issue an edict, and summon the princes of the world to raise troops to punish Dong Zhuo: my wish is also!" Cao Cao looked like I was a loyal minister of the Han family. There is a lot of arrogance that gives up who I am, so that this county order is greatly impressed. Therefore, the county order hurriedly untied Cao Cao's shackles, invited him to take a seat, and worshiped him again: "Meng Degong is really a loyal and righteous person in the world!" ”

Cao Cao also bowed and asked the name of the county order.

The county order replied: "My surname is Chen, the name is the palace, and the word is Gongtai." The old mother and wife are all in East County. Now I feel the loyalty of Xuande Gong, and I am willing to abandon this official and flee from the public! ”

Cao Cao was very happy when he heard this.

That night, Chen Gong packed up his entanglement, changed clothes with Cao Cao, and each carried a sword on his back for self-defense, and rode out of the city.

After three more days, Cao Cao and Chen Gong came to the Chenggao realm, and it was getting late. The two of them walked to a wooded forest. Cao Cao used the horsewhip in his hand to go deep into the woods, and said to Chen Gong: "Gongtai, there is a family in this forest, the head of the family is surnamed Lu, and his name is Boxuan, who is my father's righteous brother; I want to go to find out the news at home, and by the way, I want to spend a night, what do you think? ”

Chen Gong looked up and saw that it was getting late, and after looking around, he didn't see any villages to live in anywhere else, so he naturally nodded in agreement and said it was the best.

The two of them headed straight into the woods. After a short journey, there was a manor in front of them, and the two came to the village and dismounted. When a family member saw a visitor, they led him inside to see Bo Lu.

Bo Hao was taken aback when he saw Cao Cao, and said: "I heard that the imperial court is full of documents, and I am very anxious to catch you." Your father has taken refuge in Chenliu. How did you get here? ”

Cao Cao told Lu Bohao in detail how Wang Yun invited the ministers, how he boasted about Haikou in front of everyone, how he entered Dong's mansion and failed to assassinate, how he escaped by borrowing a test horse, how he met Chen Gong, etc., and said: "If it weren't for Chen County's order this time, I would have been crushed!" ”

When Bo Hao heard this, he thanked Chen Gong and said: "If the little nephew is not the envoy, the Cao family will be destroyed." Let Jun Kuanhuai sit in peace, and he can stay in the grass hut tonight. With that, he retreated and turned inside.

It took a long time to come out of it and say to Chen Gong: "The old man has no good wine at home, and let the old man go to the West Village to sell a bottle to treat the guests." Then he hurriedly mounted his donkey and went out.

Cao Cao and Chen Gong sat in the hall for a long time, when they suddenly heard the sound of sharpening knives from the back of the village. Cao Cao saw that Bo Hao was in a hurry when he left, and he had doubts in his heart, and when he heard the sound of sharpening the knife, his suspicions were even heavier, so he said to Chen Gong: "Lu Bo Hao is not my closest relative, and this trip is in a hurry, which is very suspicious; Then the sound of sharpening the knife rises again, and we should eavesdrop on it. ”

It's a run for your life, and everyone should be more careful. Chen Gong thought that Cao Cao was careful, so he and Cao Cao quietly sneaked into the cottage, and heard someone there talking: "Tie it up and kill it, how about it?" ”

As soon as Cao Cao heard this, he whispered to Chen Gong: "This is the case! If you and I do not strike first, we will be captured. After finishing speaking, he drew his sword in his hand, rushed into the backyard, and cut them one by one, killing eight people in a row, regardless of men and women. When Chen Gong saw that he was killed, he also drew his sword and followed Cao Cao to search for the survivors of the Lu family, and searched under the kitchen, but saw a fat pig tied up on the stove to be killed.

Seeing this, Chen Gong said to Cao Cao indignantly: "Meng De has a lot of suspicions this time, how can he not kill a good person by mistake!" ”

Cao Cao was also anxious when he saw this. The two hurriedly led the horses out of the village and got on the horses.

After walking only two miles, I saw two bottles of wine hanging on the bridge in front of Lu Bo's donkey saddle, coming with fruits and vegetables in his hands, and shouting: "Why do the virtuous nephews and envoys have to leave this time?" ”

But seeing that Cao Cao's face was not red and his ears were not red, as if nothing had happened, he said to Lu Bohao: "We are the ones who have been offended, and we dare not live for a long time!" ”

Bo Hao said kind words: "I have ordered my family to slaughter a fat pig for money, why should the virtuous nephew and the envoy hate for a night?" Please change to ride. ”

Where did Cao Cao dare to go back? Ignoring Lu Bohao's hospitality, he rode his horse forward. Chen Gong is even more weak-hearted, where he dares to meet the old man, he also moves forward.

Cao Cao thought to himself, I killed your family, go back with you this time, you don't fight with me! No, I'm going to get out of here. Suddenly, he thought about it again, if this Lu Boyu came home and saw that all the old and young in his family had been killed, he would definitely think of me. If I lead the crowd to chase after me, will it not be dangerous for me to do so. No way! Chop the grass without removing the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows!

After thinking about it, he turned his horse back, rushed behind Bo Hao, drew his sword, and shouted, "Who is this coming?" ”

When Nabo heard this, he looked back and saw Cao Cao swinging his sword and slashing, and he was immediately shocked. Poor old man, his eyes widened, and he didn't die for what reason! The corpse trembled and fell under the donkey, it was really dead and blind!

Seeing this, Chen Gong was shocked, rode his horse back, and questioned Cao Cao: "Killing people at the right time is a misunderstanding caused by suspicion; So why? ”

Cao Cao threw the sword into the scabbard with his backhand, and said coldly: "When Bo Lu came home, he saw all the people I killed in the family, and he was willing to rest?" If you lead the crowd to chase after us, you and I will suffer from it! ”

Chen Gong said indignantly: "Killing knowingly, this is a great injustice!" ”

Cao Cao said disapprerovingly: "I, Cao Cao, want to achieve great things, and I should be bold." Treat it as a must, and don't get rid of the mud. Rather teach me to bear the world, and stop teaching the world to bear me. Chen Gong was silent.

That night, the two of them traveled several miles before they had to stay overnight. After feeding the horses, Cao Cao went to sleep first.

Chen Gong couldn't live in peace for a long time because of his extravagance, and secretly thought to himself: "I thought Cao Cao was a benevolent gentleman, so I abandoned the official and followed him; He is also a wolf with ambitions! If you keep it today, it will be a disaster for the future. After thinking about it for a long time, he wanted to draw his sword and kill Cao Cao.

There is a way:

Set up a ruthless and vicious person, Cao Zhuo was originally a person all the way
