Chapter 240 I will sacrifice Xuanyuan with your blood
Chapter 240: I sacrifice your blood to Xuanyuan
"Cao Gong."
Xu Chu, with quick eyesight and quick hands, had already grabbed the bloody book and handed it to Cao Cao...
While Cao Cao took the blood letter, he glanced at Dong Cheng. At this time, Dong Cheng was already so scared that he collapsed on the ground... looking like he was lost.
But he saw Cao Cao slowly unfolding the blood book and silently reciting in his heart.
It doesn't matter if you don't think about it. After thinking silently, Cao Cao's brows suddenly stood up, and his whole cheek became fierce and terrifying...
As for the reason, the contents of this bloody letter are simply shocking.
"——I heard that in the greatness of human relations, father and son come first; in the distinction between respect and inferiority, the king and his ministers are the most important."
"——Today the thief Cao has seized power, oppressed the king and father, linked up with the party members, and corrupted the political order."
"——Going down one by one, the great Han will destroy the country, and I will destroy the ruler. For this reason... I worry about it all night long...
"——You are an important minister of the country and a close relative of mine. I should remember the difficulties faced by our ancestors in starting a business and unite with the martyrs who are both loyal and righteous to punish Cao's thieves and restore peace to the country..."
What does that mean?
The first half of this bloody book named Cao Cao word for word. He was a rebellious minister and traitor who oppressed the king, formed a clique for personal gain, and monopolized power... If this continues, the big man will be finished!
There is something even more shocking later on. The blood book mentions "sprinkling blood with broken fingers" many times... which means that this is a chapter written by His Majesty with his bones and blood.
This has a profound meaning. If it spreads throughout the world...
Those words turned into a sharp long sword, thrust directly into Cao Cao's heart without hesitation...
call…
After reading almost the entire blood letter, Cao Cao took a long breath, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and his hands that were holding the blood letter were trembling.
No wonder Brother Yi mentioned that something big is going to happen in the palace...
The emperor wrote it with his own hand and wrote it in blood, telling the world about Cao's thief's name, and even wanted to use Dong Cheng's hand to contact the world to make an agreement to attack Cao. If this "Belt Edict" is taken out of the palace, the consequences will be disastrous!
Closer to home, there will be countless pro-Han courtiers who will stand firmly on Dong Cheng's side and wait for the opportunity... to plot against him, Cao Cao.
To put it further, if the protection is not complete, those princes who are watching and watching the excitement will raise their spears and aim directly at Cao Cao...
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Qingjun...
Just like when the eighteen princes challenged Dong, Cao Cao will most likely become the target of public criticism!
call…
When he thought of this, Cao Cao took another long breath, this time his voice was deeper and his tone was more solemn...
I'm glad, I'm really glad...
Cao Cao patted his chest, You Zi calmed down a little...
In an instant, Yi Xiaotian's appearance filled his mind...
Thanks to Brother Yi, he expected it in advance and named him at the right time, so that Cao Cao rushed back without any delay...
Huo and Brother Yi may have directly judged this "Belt Edict" incident through Liu Bei's absconding.
While Cao Cao marveled at Yi Xiaotian's incredible insight, his heart was filled with infinite gratitude.
If it hadn't been for his reminder and this "Edict on Clothes and Belts" had spread out of the palace, Cao Cao would not only have suffered a big loss in Liu Bei's escape, but more importantly, he would have been capsized in the gutter where the emperor and Dong Cheng were conspiring.
hehe…
Thinking of this, Cao Cao sneered.
This time I proposed to give Brother Yi an entire Dukang Village as a reward. He was still distressed at first, but now it seems that it is well deserved!
He even felt that Brother Yi had made such a great contribution and helped him so much? For a mere Dukang Village, this reward was a bit small.
But...it seems that now is not the time to think about this.
The abbot, the emperor, the imperial edict, this matter has not been finalized yet...
…
"Guozhang...Dong Guozhang."
Cao Cao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he called out Dong Cheng's name twice.
"Cao Sikong... this... this..." Dong Cheng burst into tears. He was already kneeling limply on the ground. Xu Chu picked him up like an eagle catching a chicken...
"This...this is all my plan. It has nothing to do with His Majesty."
After all, he was still the abbot of the country. Knowing that he would die, Dong Cheng simply stopped all the blame...
He could only hope to use the head on his neck to dispel the anger in Cao Cao's heart...thus, allowing His Majesty to escape the disaster.
but…
It seems that he underestimated Cao Cao.
"Dong Guozhang, of course I know that this is your fault alone. You forged the imperial edict with the intention of doing evil to me. What are you doing to Your Majesty?"
How smart Cao Cao is...
He knew that the battle between Cao and Yuan was imminent, and the emperor was the most advantageous weapon in his hand.
Cao Cao would not be so stupid that he would fall out with him just because of an edict. Instead, Cao Cao would have to help the emperor find a sycophant who would take the blame!
Of course, Cao Cao would not be so naive as to think that Dong Cheng was the only one involved in this matter. Dong Cheng had a lot of valuable things in his mouth!
"Detain him... and let Xu Duling interrogate him severely. We must eliminate all evil and do his best."
Cao Cao was too lazy to pay attention to Dong Cheng. Now he had a lot of things waiting for him to deal with. Dong Chengquan was handed over to Man Chong for interrogation. No one could withstand Man Chong's torture...
Just these few days... Dong Cheng's accomplices are bound to be wiped out in one fell swoop. There are undercurrents surging in the capital city. This hidden danger that has been hanging on Cao Cao's head for a long time has been completely eliminated.
After Dong Cheng was escorted away, Cao Cao was in a good mood.
He folded the bloody book carefully, as if nothing was wrong, and his whole look was calm and relaxed...
He raised his head and looked at the sky, and laughed happily. He looked very much like Yi Xiaotian!
It seems that after spending a long time with Yi Xiaotian, Cao Cao has learned a lot from Brother Yi's free and easy attitude.
"Mr. Cao? Now..." Xu Chu asked Cao Cao...
"Go to Chongde Hall..." Cao Cao motioned to Xu Chu to stuff the blood book back into the jade belt, and he smiled slightly. "In the past, we have indulged your majesty too much, haha... I will bring this brocade robe and jade to your majesty to remind you.
Bar!"
With sonorous steps, Cao Cao and Xu Chu showed themselves as victors.
They were about to meet Liu Xie, the young emperor who had ideals and ambitions but was born at the wrong time.
What awaits Liu Xie is probably tighter supervision...
After all, Liu Bei was escaping in front of him, and Cao Cao was conspiring behind him. Cao Cao thought that the emperor should be surrounded by "his own people"...
…
…
The next day, morning.
The throne in Chongde Hall is empty...
The emperor is ill. As for the reason, all the officials in the dynasty understand it tacitly!
Yesterday evening, Xu Ducheng could be described as roaring...
The cool official Man Chong was very efficient in his work. He opened Dong Cheng's mouth within a few hours, and what followed was a large-scale manhunt throughout the city.
Dong Cheng's house was confiscated, Concubine Dong Guifei was hanged, the minister's prince died in the mansion, and General Wu Zilan was executed in the military camp. As for Changshui captain Zhongji, Yilang Wu Zhi was even executed... and died in public!
The wind and the lingering clouds...Cao Cao almost killed all the officials who participated in the "Yidai Zhao" incident overnight.
The key is that the charges are obvious and well-founded. No one can say anything... and no one dares to say anything!
Tread...
With extremely heavy steps, Cao Cao strode into the Chongde Hall wearing shoes and holding a sword...
This is…
Everyone was startled...
But at this moment, a small yellow gate read out the emperor's decree. "Your Majesty has a decree, give Cao Sikong to praise and worship without name, to enter the court without following, and to go to the palace with swords and shoes..."
call out…
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was in an uproar.
You know, the Han Dynasty has lasted for hundreds of years, and apart from Xiao He, the founding hero, only the treacherous Prime Minister Dong Zhuo has this honor...
However, Dong Zhuo's decree to enter the imperial court was not granted by the emperor...it was regarded as self-proclaimed and could not be counted.
In other words, apart from Xiao He, Cao Cao is the first big man to win this honor through formal procedures.
Is this... Your Majesty surrendering to Cao Cao?
Everyone just thought of this, but when they heard a "clear" sound, Cao Cao immediately pulled out his sword.
What followed were cold and sonorous words——
——"I, Sikong, represent the Han Dynasty and are about to fight against the traitor Yuan Shao. The young master Kong Rong has repeatedly warned me to negotiate peace and surrender, which has destroyed the morale of our army. I, Cao Cao, have endured it again and again, but now I don't want to endure it anymore!"
During the conversation.
Tap tap tap tap…
A group of Tiger Guards quickly broke into Chongde Palace and captured Kong Rong without saying a word...
call…
Last night, Cao Cao had just killed so many officials with billions of thunderous methods, but all the officials were still in a state of fear. The next day, Cao Cao captured Kong Rong... This...
For a time, all the ministers in the court, and even the capitulators and peace negotiators, all shrank their heads, wishing they could stuff their heads into their pants, how could they dare to say the word "no"...
"Cao Cao...you..." Kong Rong still wanted to argue. After all, he was very good at sophistry.
It's a pity... After listening to Yi Xiaotian's reminder, Cao Cao figured it out. Kong Rong was just a talker who had never won a battle and could only talk on paper. What qualifications did he have to be sophistry? What qualifications did he have to undermine the morale of the army?
hehe…
Before Kong Rong could say a word, he was already pulled down from the court by a group of officials, and with a "click"... he was beheaded in public display!
"ah…"
Kong Rong's wailing before his death echoed through the sky for a long time...
Cao Cao's words also came out one after another. "From now on, for those who dare to threaten to negotiate peace and surrender, Kong Rong will be the role model! Hmph..."
With a cold snort, Cao Cao turned around and stood with his hands behind his back. His peripheral vision dimly looked in the direction of killing Kong Rong.
Haha...Kong Shaofu.
Let's use your head to commemorate Cao Jun's determination and will to move forward in an indomitable and overwhelming manner!
