Chapter 236 Cao Cao’s first highlight ([-])
Yuan Shao escaped from Luoyang and did not go to Pingyuan County to serve as the governor. Instead, he stayed in Wei County.
Yuan Wei had no choice but to delay the relationship between all parties, and finally persuaded Dong Zhuo to change Yuan Shao to the prefect of Wei County.
In the evening, in Situ's mansion, Situ Wang Yun (also known as Zishi) was pacing in the mansion and thinking because he received a secret letter from Yuan Shao (also named Benchu), the Marquis of Qixiang and the prefect of Wei walked to the desk and sat down, opened the secret letter written by Yuan Shao again and read it.
"The thief deceives the heaven and dethrones the master, and people cannot bear to say anything; but if you don't listen to the lord's domineering behavior, how can you serve the country as a loyal minister? Shao Jin gathered troops to train soldiers, and wanted to clear out the royal family, but he did not dare to move lightly. If the lord has the intention, You should take the opportunity to figure it out. If you are prompted, you should obey the order."
Wu Fu's death gave the quick-thinking Wang Yun some inspiration. If he wanted to assassinate Dong Zhuo, in addition to courage, he also needed a careful enough plan.
After Wang Yun read the secret letter, he put it away and continued to think about countermeasures.
One night a few days later, the Situ Mansion was decorated with lanterns and bright lights. A huge golden word "Longevity" was hung on the wall in the back hall. The maids and servants were busy, bringing longevity peaches, fruits, wine and dishes, etc. Place it on every table...
In the name of his birthday, Wang Yun invited the ministers to discuss Dong's affairs.
"Dong Zhuo bullies the master and seizes power, and the country is difficult to protect. I want Emperor Gao to kill Qin, destroy Chu, and cover the world. Whoever wants to pass it down to this day will lose it at the hands of Dong Zhuo!"
The original plan was to borrow foreign troops to enter Luoyang and put pressure on the generals and eunuchs. In the end, the gentry took control of the power and isolated the emperor. Unexpectedly, they led the wolf into the house.
Look what Dong Zhuo has been doing these past few months! He appointed himself an official, becoming a Taiwei, and later became the Prime Minister, surpassing the three Dukes and assuming the power of the Prime Minister.
He granted official titles to his family, and everyone who had anything to do with his family was granted the title of marquis. It can be said that "when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven"! The dogs of his Dong family are more noble than ordinary people!
He was bloodthirsty, a large number of civilians were killed, a large number of women were raped and tortured, and his cruelty to prisoners of war reached a new level. He liked to wrap the prisoners into mummies, smear them with burning materials and burn them upside down. He looked at the prisoners of war while eating. His tongue was cut off and his eyes were gouged out, so he could talk and laugh freely.
He speaks the law, and the laws he promulgates are chaotic and chaotic. Whether he breaks the law or not depends entirely on his own will, and he unjustly kills a large number of innocent officials and people.
That's not how Game of Thrones works! Bitter!
I thought the nobles were about to usher in spring, but I didn't expect that not only was the cold winter not over, but it was also hailing every day.
Bitter!
When he thought of this, Wang Yun hid his face and cried loudly, and all the ministers also began to cry bitterly.
But they never thought that the driving force behind all this was everyone here crying.
"Hahaha……"
A sudden laughter came from it, and everyone was crying sadly. Isn't this a disappointment? Everyone was very dissatisfied with Cao Cao's actions.
"Why is Meng De laughing?"
"Master of the Manchu Dynasty, if you cry at night until tomorrow, and cry at night tomorrow, can you still cry Dong Zhuo to death?"
Wang Yun pointed at Cao Cao and said angrily: "Your ancestors also lived in the Han Dynasty, but now you don't want to serve the country and instead laugh?"
Cao Cao stood up and walked to the opposite side of Wang Yun: "I am not laughing at anything else, I am laughing at the fact that everyone has no way to kill Dong Zhuoer."
"Hmph! What's your plan?"
"Although Cao Cao is not talented, I would like to cut off Dong Zhuo's head immediately and hang it on the capital gate to thank the world."
Cao Cao spoke so boldly and confidently that everyone was amazed.
Wang Yun took the oil lamp and took Cao Cao to his darkroom and lit the oil lamp in the Cao walked to the desk and sat down first. Wang Yun took out Yuan Shao's secret letter from the closet, sat down opposite Cao Cao, and placed the secret letter opposite Cao Cao.
Cao Cao picked up the secret letter and read it. After reading it, he put the letter on the desk.
Cao Cao: "Hmph! Alas! I wrote this letter very impassionedly at first! Hum hum! It's just..." Yuan Shao, why is this guy still thinking about causing internal strife in Luoyang, and the snipe and the clam competing for the fisherman's profit?
Now Luoyang is almost divided into two factions, the Xiliang faction headed by Dong Zhuo and the royalist faction. Yuan Shao wants to borrow Dong Zhuo's sword to destroy the remaining royalist faction.
Wang Yun: "Just what?"
Cao Cao stood up and said, "Oh! It's just him who is avoiding trouble in Wei County from afar. Huh! It's easy to say that it's easy to let others take advantage of it!"
Wang Yun: "In your opinion..."
Cao Cao: "I don't need any soldiers except Dong Zhuo."
Cao Cao walked up to Wang Yun and said, "I heard that Master Situ has a Qibao sword. This sword blows hair and cuts hair, and cuts iron like clay. It is extremely sharp."
"You want to follow Wu Fu's example and assassinate the Dong thief? No! No! Let's learn from the past!"
Wu Fu died not long ago, how could Dong Zhuo be unprepared?Wang Yun believed that Cao Cao could not succeed and directly vetoed his plan.
Cao Cao laughed after hearing this: "Haha! Haha..."
Wang Yun: "Why are you laughing? How easy is it to assassinate an old thief?"
Cao Cao nodded, "Yeah!"
Wang Yun: "The old thief is always guarded by armor when he comes in and out, and Lu Bu's fellow is always around. Difficult! Difficult!"
Cao Cao: "Master Situ's concerns cannot be said to be wrong, but they may not be entirely correct."
Wang Yun: "How?"
Cao Cao sat down and said: "Dong Zhuo is more than rough, but not refined enough. In the former case, Wu Fu failed in his assassination in the court and was brutally killed. Dong Zhuo only thought that killing one person would serve as a warning to others, and others would not dare to follow Wu Fu's example. However, things happened It’s different. If it didn’t work the previous time, it may not work this time.”
Wang Yun felt that it made sense, "Although it is true, it is difficult!"
Cao Cao: "It is self-evident that Dong Thief's guard against others is not worth slacking off. But who is he guarding against? Naturally, it is his enemy. In the past, he wanted to leave the assassination to Qing Ji, and there were thousands of Qing Ji. Husband is not so brave! But if you want to leave, he is a disabled person, but why can he succeed in the assassination? "
Wang Yun seemed to understand what Cao Cao meant, and his heart suddenly moved. "Yes! Yes! Yes! If someone he trusts assassinates him, he will be unable to defend himself!"
Cao Cao: "Recently, Cao Cao has bent down to serve Zhuo, and he really wants to take advantage of Jiantu's ears. Today Zhuo believes in Cao, and Cao is close to Zhuo because he has the time. I heard that Situ has a seven-treasure sword, and I would like to lend it to Cao to assassinate him in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Although I will never hate you!"
Wang Yun felt that this plan could work: "Oh!"
Then he stood up and walked to the closet, took out the Seven Treasure Sword from inside, turned around and walked to Cao Cao also stood up.
Wang Yun: "It is a great blessing for the world and the country that Meng De has such a heart. Please come forward and pay your respects to Wang Yun."
After saying this, Wang Yun raised the Seven Treasure Sword above his head, knelt down and bowed to Cao Cao, and then personally drank wine to serve Cao Cao.
Cao Cao stepped forward to receive the Seven Treasure Sword, and knelt down on one knee, "The Emperor and Empress of Heaven, Cao Cao, the Han Dynasty's heroic cavalry captain, swear to kill the traitor Dong Zhuo, secure the imperial government and the country, and thank the people of the world. I will go through fire and water, even if I die."
At this time, Cao Cao, like Wang Mang back then, was full of ideals.
But he was luckier than Wang Mang because Wang Mang was a bitter boy. He had to do whatever he wanted with his tail between his legs since he was a child. He had to wait until he became the most capable one before he could realize his ideals.
"Dong Zhuo's life plan is obviously different from mine. I want to be the general of the Han Dynasty conquering the west, Marquis Cao, not the younger brother of the northwest warlord!"
