Chapter 11: Cao Cao's Fury!
For Cao Cao, Yang Biao is not afraid at all.
His personality is just like his name, he is very strong and upright, and he is also the most loyal to the Han royal family.
At the beginning, Dong Zhuo wanted to move the capital with the Son of Heaven, but he did not hesitate to risk his life and fight with him.
Even Dong Zhuo was not afraid, how could he be afraid of Cao Cao?
Cao Cao asked the Son of Heaven to move the capital to Xu County this time, and he also strongly opposed it, but the situation was stronger than people, so he had to follow.
This also led to his extremely poor perception of Cao Cao.
Now seeing that the Son of Heaven is going to be rejected by Cao Cao even to reward his own ministers, how can Yang Biao still bear it?
"Cao Cao, although you have merit in saving the Son of Heaven, don't forget that you are just a courtier!"
Yang Biao looked up at Cao Cao, his eyes were sharp, "To be a courtier is to have the duty to be a courtier, who is the Son of Heaven rewarding, this is the power of the Son of Heaven, what does it have to do with you?" ”
"Don't you want to go over the line!"
Yang Biao's words can be described as heart-wrenching.
And Yang Xiu, who was sitting next to Yang Biao, was already sweating profusely, and while pulling Yang Biao's sleeve, he said in a low voice: "Father, don't talk about it......"
Cao Cao welcomed the Son of Heaven to Xu County, who doesn't know what the purpose is?
With the Son of Heaven in his hands, he can act in the name of the Son of Heaven, which is no different from Dong Zhuo, who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes!
But can such a thing be said?
In the face of his son's dissuasion, Yang Biao directly chose to ignore it, he straightened his waist, and his eyes were like two sharp swords towards Cao Cao.
The atmosphere in the main hall became solemn as a result.
"Yang Aiqing ......"
Seeing the two-for-tat, the Son of Heaven panicked for a while and wanted to open his mouth to mediate, but at this time Cao Cao spoke.
Seeing the wine glass in his hand, he squinted at Yang Biao and said with a smile: "I have heard that Yang Gong has a strong personality, and he really deserves his reputation." ”
Yang Biao said lightly: "I don't dare to be, I'm just used to being straightforward." Cao Yanzhou does not respect the Son of Heaven, and the old man, as a vassal of the Han Dynasty, naturally wants to protect His Majesty. ”
"Old horseman! You are presumptuous! ”
A burly military general was furious when he heard this, and he directly slapped the case, his hand was already pressed on the sword at his waist, and he was about to pull it out.
"Xu Chu, don't be rude."
Cao Cao opened his mouth to stop him, then looked at Yang Biao and smiled: "It seems that Yang Gong has a lot of prejudices against me. ”
"The Son of Heaven wants to reward the ministers, I just determine which ones are meritorious first, and then the Son of Heaven will reward them, why is it disrespectful?"
Yang Biao sneered: "Who has merit and who is not, it's not up to you to have the final say, it's up to you to draw up the list, I'm afraid that in the future, in my Han court, it will be all your Cao Cao retainers!" ”
"Now that Your Majesty has just set the capital, the court has not yet been established, and the Hanchen scattered all over the world have not yet come to meet you, do you want to step into the court first to occupy an important position at this time, do you really think that others can't see it?!"
Yang Biao's words fell, and Yang Xiu closed his eyes in despair.
But Cao Cao still didn't care, and just said lightly: "Whether my Cao Cao is selfish or not, Yang Gong said it doesn't count, His Majesty said it." ”
As he spoke, he looked up at the Son of Heaven.
"Dare to ask Your Majesty, are you selfish?"
For a while, the eyes of many people in the hall were focused on the body of the Son of Heaven.
Facing everyone's gaze, the Son of Heaven's face turned pale, and his eyes wandered between Cao Cao and Yang Biao for a long time, and finally said with a smile: "Meng De is naturally a selfless ......."
As soon as these words came out, Yang Biao's expression instantly darkened.
And Cao Cao couldn't help laughing, and many civil ministers and military generals in the hall also laughed.
Yang Xiu crawled to the center of the main hall and kowtowed to Cao Cao and prayed: "My father lost his words after drinking today, and I also ask Lord Sikong not to worry about him!" ”
Cao Cao didn't care about this: "Dezu doesn't need to say much, Yang Gong has been with the Son of Heaven for a long time, and he is an old minister of the court, I have always respected him, how can I blame him." ”
As he spoke, he raised his wine glass again, and said with a loud smile to everyone in the hall: "Come on, come on, all drink, don't get drunk today!" ”
"No——!"
The atmosphere in the hall was warm again, everyone was staggered, pushing cups and changing lamps, only Yang Biao sat in his place in despair, without saying a word.
Yang Xiu looked at his father like this, and he didn't know how to comfort him, so he couldn't help but sigh.
He knew his father's loyalty to the Han family, but since the beginning of the Dingdu Xu County, the decline of the Han family has been doomed, and the Son of Heaven will also be completely reduced to Cao Cao's puppet.
It's not something they can change.
The Son of Heaven above also noticed Yang Biao's expression, although he felt guilty in his heart, he had no choice but to use wine to drown his sorrows.
And at this moment, an abrupt voice suddenly came from outside the main hall.
"Report ——!"
The voices rang from far to near, and soon a guard ran in.
"What's the news?"
Cao Cao frowned, he was very interested in this matter, and when he was suddenly interrupted, he naturally felt very unhappy in his heart.
The guard looked embarrassed, he looked at the Son of Heaven above, and then at Cao Cao, not knowing how to answer, and finally lowered his head and presented a copy of the report with both hands.
"Give it to me."
In the middle of the feast, a middle-aged scribe walked out and picked up the report and looked at it carefully.
After a while, a look of shock appeared on his face.
"What's wrong, Wen Ruo?"
Cao Cao couldn't help but ask when he saw his expression.
Xun Yu has always been calm on weekdays, and his mood is invisible, what could make him change his face on the spot?
"This ......"
Xun Yu opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only hand over this report to Cao Cao, "The lord should read it for himself." ”
Cao Cao was puzzled, but he still took the report, and then opened it and watched it carefully.
Soon, a look of shock crawled all over his face as well.
At the same time, there is unspeakable anger!
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Yuan Shao, you traitor! Thief! Traitor! Thieves! ”
Cao Cao scolded, directly slammed the newspaper in his hand on the ground along with the wine glass, and then raised his hand to overturn the table in front of him!
In this way, he still felt puzzled, and raised his foot and stepped on this report fiercely, his expression extremely hideous.
Such a big reaction startled everyone in the hall.
Xun You couldn't help but ask, "Lord, what is written in this newspaper?" How did the lord be so angry? ”
Cao Cao's face was gloomy, he didn't answer Xun You's words, got up and walked straight out of the main hall, leaving only everyone with a confused face.
Cao Cao left, so Xun You could only look at Xun Yu with an inquiring gaze.
After all, it was Xun Yu who read the first report just now.
Xun Yu sighed, didn't sell Guanzi, and said directly: "It is said in the newspaper that Yuan Shao spread the word to the world, saying that the lord is a usurper and traitor, and the son of heaven wants to do Dong Zhuo's thing. ”
"It is also said that the Son of Heaven has fled to Jizhou, and is preparing to set up the capital in Yecheng, calling on the world's talents and Hanchen to go to the court."
Emperor...... In Jizhou?
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and then they all looked at the Son of Heaven sitting above.
So who is this Son of Heaven in front of them?
