Two hours later.

Located outside the Dongming Gate of the North Palace of Luoyang City, Cao Cao and his son greeted everyone with enthusiasm and laughter. After saying goodbye again and again, they got on their horses and left with all the guards in the palace.

After walking a certain distance and presumably out of sight of everyone in front of the palace gate, Cao Ang rubbed his sore cheeks vigorously.

"Dad, it turns out that welcoming and sending people off is a hard job. When I see everyone, I have to smile on my face and bow my hands. Now my face is frozen with laughter."

Hearing his son's teasing words, Cao Cao couldn't help laughing, and then said jokingly.

"You just have to be content, kid. In this huge city of Luoyang, no matter how many people want to greet them, they don't have the qualifications to do so."

"I didn't see your uncle standing in the crowd before, but now we are still behind him."

Hearing what his father said, Cao Ang was also very happy. Of course, Yuan Shao could only stand in the crowd. After all, in front of him was the big boss of the Yuan family, the current Grand Tutor Yuan Wei.

The people mentioned above are not ordinary people, nor are they lower-ranking officials in the court.

But in the second half of the journey to send the emperor back to the palace, he gradually met the high-ranking officials of the court and the princes and ministers.

Including the famous Shangshu Lu Zhi, who is a leading figure in Confucianism today. He is also quite skilled in fighting, capable of writing and martial arts, and is well-known all over the world.

Needless to say, Taifu Yuan Wei and Taizhong doctor Yang Biao are representatives of two top aristocratic families.

In addition, there are senior officials of the same level as Situ Wangyun.

Although these characters are not unattainable, they all have their own identities and airs.

In the past, if Cao Cao wanted to communicate with them, he would first hand over greeting cards to his house, and then see if they were in a mood. If he was lucky, he might be able to go in and have a cup of tea, but if nothing happened, he would soon be politely persuaded.

retreat.

Today's performance was entirely based on the fact that Cao Cao and his son welcomed back the emperor and saved the emperor's life for the first time.

Of course, this is enough. At least in Cao Ang's view, it has opened up the situation.

…

Just as Cao Ang began to think about his next plan.

Cao Cao suddenly slowed down his horse, moved slightly closer to Cao Ang, and then asked in a confused voice.

"Ang'er, when you scolded Dong Zhuo and forced him to dismount and salute the emperor, were you so sure that Dong Zhuo would finally admit defeat instead of bursting out in anger and hacking both of you and my son into pieces?"

He was a little surprised that his father hadn't digested this matter yet, but Cao Ang still explained patiently.

"If only we, father and son, were present, the child would never dare to act like this. If Dong Zhuo was aroused, he might dig a hole and bury him alive."

"But apart from us father and son, His Majesty and King Chenliu are watching from the side. If Dong Zhuo really wants to attack us, is it possible that he can kill His Majesty and silence him?"

"Another one is that Dong Zhuo has been at the border of Xiliang for a long time. All his knowledge of the situation in the court comes from his eyes and ears in Luoyang, which can be said to be quite vague. Before he understands the specific situation, Dong Zhuo will not act rashly or act rashly.

Kill anyone who is famous or powerful."

"Under such a premise, the boy accuses Dong Zhuo with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, and refutes him in the name of righteousness. What can he do to me except to get off his horse obediently?"

A bit frivolous, but very reasonable.

Cao Cao had to admit that everything his son said was right.

Although Dong Zhuo had strong soldiers and horses, he was also arrogant and arrogant.

But he's not stupid!

How could he be such a stupid person to be able to thrive on the Han-Qiang border and remain standing for so many years?

Before taking control of the situation, no matter how arrogant Dong Zhuo was, he would restrain himself. This must be the reason why he finally fell down by the road and kowtowed to the emperor.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help but turn his eyes to Cao Ang's handsome face, and these four words quietly appeared in his mind.

Understand the world!

I have been an official in the court for a long time. Although I am not the center of power, I have been taught by my father Cao Song since I was a child. I still know a little about politics.

Now it seems that he only knows a little bit about it.

My son is less than twenty years old, has never been an official for a day, and I have never taught him these things, but he is able to connect these things together and analyze them comprehensively.

Such a big picture view...

Zixiu is not only a thousand-mile horse, but also a unicorn!

If we could see the data, at this time, Cao Cao's head should be filled with "+1+1+1" satisfaction.

After sighing for a while, Cao Cao suddenly thought of something and asked quickly.

"Then why are you doing this, Ang'er? Do you just want to kill Dong Zhuo's arrogance and show off his majesty?"

Cao Ang thought carefully and then shook his head.

"Kill him for his arrogance and arrogance. This is indeed the result I want, but it is not the purpose."

"My purpose is that after this show of power, Dong Zhuo can have some scruples and restrain himself a little in Luoyang City in the future, which can be regarded as retaining more dignity for the Han Dynasty surnamed Liu."

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment.

He really never thought it would be this reason, but wouldn't it be inconsistent?

Cao Cao couldn't help but put the questions in his mind into words.

"Previously on Beiman Mountain, you were very dismissive of His Majesty, but now you want to retain some dignity for the Royal Family."

"Tell me honestly, what is your opinion of the imperial court?"

Cao Cao's words revealed his entanglement, and he was somewhat impatient to find out his son's position.

Is he consistent with his own aspirations and loyal to the court, or is he rebellious and unwilling to be inferior to others?

However, Cao Ang just smiled brightly and said somewhat coolly: "My child has no opinion on the imperial court. Whether to obey the imperial court or rebel against it actually only depends on the interests of our Cao family."

"The growth of the Cao family requires opposition to the imperial court, and the child will stand on the opposite side of the imperial court. On the contrary, he will support the rule of the Han Dynasty."

After saying that, Cao Ang patted his horse and sped away towards home, leaving Cao Cao alone in a daze.

After a long while, Cao Cao suddenly smiled with relief.

"This...is fine!"

…………

The Cao Family Mansion.

The father and son, who had been scolding Fang Qiu just now, were facing Mrs. Ding's complaints, but they could only accept the criticism honestly.

"I promised that I would be back at 00:00 at the latest. Look what time it is now. Do you know how anxious I am waiting alone at home?"

"My good husband, you are now capable. Not only did you risk yourself to go to the battlefield, but you also had to drag Ang'er along with you. Did you get the credit for nothing or what?"

"Why are you laughing? Mom didn't say you were proud, right? Now that you have grown up and your wings have become stronger, you only listen to your father's orders, but you don't feel sorry for your mother."

As sudden as a violent storm.

The father and son could only obey, laughing together and shouting "Calm down" and "I've made my mistake" repeatedly.
