Chapter 150: Frame Liu Bei

After confirming that the two shadow guards were really protecting themselves, Cao Cao arranged for his family to leave Luoyang City first. After all, the assassination of Dong Zhuo was too dangerous, so it was naturally not a problem to escape. But if he took his family together, it would slow down the speed of the escape, so Cao Cao needed to arrange for his family to leave Luoyang City first.

Three days later, when Cao Cao arranged for Xiahou Yuan to escort his family away, he asked Xiahou Dun to lead his troops outside Luoyang City, ready to pick him up at any time.

After all arrangements were completed, Cao Cao led an old horse to Dong Zhuo's Prime Minister's Mansion. Without any notice, Cao Cao walked directly into the inner courtyard of Dong Zhuo's Prime Minister's Mansion.

At this time, Dong Zhuo was drinking and having fun, watching the singer dance, while Hua Xiong stood beside Dong Zhuo to protect Dong Zhuo's safety.

When Dong Zhuo saw Cao Cao coming, he smiled and said, "Meng De, come on! Come and drink with a certain family, hahaha."

When Hua Xiong saw Cao Cao coming, he just nodded to Cao Cao and said hello. It seems that Hua Xiong has become accustomed to Cao Cao's arrival.

Cao Cao said to Dong Zhuo: "Prime Minister forgives his crimes, Cao Cao is late."

"Since Meng De knew that he was late, then the prime minister would punish you to drink this cup." After Dong Zhuo said this, a maid on the side put a full cup of wine in front of Cao Cao.

"Cao Cao accepted the punishment." After Cao Cao said that, he picked up the wine cup and drank it all. The wine cup contained whiskey produced in Bingzhou. For ordinary people, drinking it like this would definitely cause you to get drunk. However, when Cao Cao came back from Bingzhou, he brought back a lot of spiritual wine. Although it was stolen by his father later, Cao Cao had drunk a lot of spiritual wine. Therefore, the concentration of whiskey was simply a small matter for Cao Cao.

"Okay, okay, Meng De has a good alcohol tolerance, and someone comes to sit down." Dong Zhuo saw Cao Cao lifting up the wine cup and drinking it all, and exclaimed loudly.

"Thank you the Prime Minister to give me a seat!" Cao Cao thanked Dong Zhuo for giving me a seat like Dong Zhuo.

After Cao Cao sat down, Dong Zhuo asked, "Why is Meng De late today? I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Cao Cao explained: "My mount is so weak that I am late, and I am accused of punishment." After saying that, I apologized to Dong Zhuo carefully.

"S... Meng De, you are a military academy guard, why don't you even have a horse?" Dong Zhuo asked after thinking for a while.

"The prime minister has something to do. Since the beginning of spring, there has been a severe drought in the world. Now, Luoyang City has no grain and no fodder. My ministers' mounts have starved to death happily." Cao Cao explained.

"That won't work, no, no one can starve you Cao Mengde's mount to death. I, Xiliang, just offered a few sweat-blooded horses, Hua Xiong, you dear

Go and choose a good horse and give it to Meng De." Dong Zhuo generously asked Hua Xiong to choose a good horse and give it to Cao Cao.

"Promise, lord!" After Hua Xiong agreed, he turned around and walked out of the hall. He was obviously going to go to the horse and helped Cao Cao choose the horse.

Seeing that Hua Xiong was going to help him choose a horse, Cao Cao thanked Hua Xiong: "There is General Hua."

After Hua Xiong left, Dong Zhuo asked, "Meng De, did you hear that you are familiar with that Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu?"

"I originally knew each other since I was a child, but I am different from him." Cao Cao explained.

"Yuan Shao, a bastard, should have killed him in the court that day. At that time, he was considering his family and former officials all over the world. He let him go astray, leaving Luoyang and granted him a Bohai prefect. Unexpectedly, he actually scolded him in front of the people of the world today, which was really hateful." Dong Zhuoyue became more angry.

"Don't worry, the prime minister is not worried. Yuan's four generations and three masters, and his disciples are all over the world. However, Yuan Shao is only famous and is not a talented person. The prime minister only needs to send a general and lead 30,000 Xiliang troops to destroy Yuan Shao. Although Yuan Shao publicly insulted the prime minister, he did not dare to openly resist the prime minister. From this, it can be seen that Yuan Shao is only famous. He dares to insult the prime minister, but does not dare to openly raise an army to resist the prime minister. Based on the prime minister's current status and status, why should he care about Yuan Shao, a person with a reputation alone?" Cao Cao said with a smile.

"Okay... Hahaha... Meng De said it well!" Dong Zhuo was in a good mood when he heard Cao Cao say this, and kept praising Cao Cao for what he said well.

"It's not that some of my family is arrogant. I'm under my command, Hua Xiong, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou, and Xu Rong. It can be said that they all have the courage to be unstoppable. If you kill him, Yuan Shao, as long as you send one of my subordinates, you will be enough to defeat Yuan Shao's son." Dong Zhuo said confidently.

"I believe that the most important thing is to have a prime minister. The prime minister leads troops like Han Xin and governs the country like Xiao He. After four hundred years of founding the Han Dynasty, I have never had such a talent as a prime minister." Cao Caohao was not stingy with flattery.

When Dong Zhuo heard Cao Cao say that he was a rare talent in the world. He was in a good mood and laughed loudly.

After laughing, Dong Zhuo asked, "Meng De, a family is asking you something. Some family knows that those court ministers respect me on the surface, but they hate me in their hearts. They wish they could hang my head above the city gate. I know you have a good relationship with the ministers in the court. Some family asks you, what abnormal actions have these ministers in the court recently?"

"There is no such thing as too much noise. However, the other day was Wang Situ's 60th birthday. Many ministers in the court went to the banquet to congratulate Wang Situ on his 60th birthday. I didn't invite him to go there, hoping to wait for the prime minister to find out their words. But that night, one of them came to the banquet uninvited, and this person was driven out like the minister, just like the minister." Cao Cao said.

"Oh! Someone came uninvited like Meng De, and was kicked out with Meng De. Who is this person?" When Dong Zhuo heard that someone was kicked out like Cao Cao, he couldn't help but become interested.

"Haha, this person often claims to be Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, a relative of the Han Dynasty." Cao Cao told Dong Zhuo what Liu Bei dared to do with him, hoping to divert Dong Zhuo's attention and prevent Dong Zhuo from paying attention to Wang Yun. After all, Wang Yun gave him a beauty. Now that he has such a good scapegoat, Cao Cao naturally cannot let go.

"Liu Xuande?" Dong Zhuo knew nothing about Liu Bei.

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, Liu Xuande is a very ambitious person. He actually openly talked about how to assassinate the Prime Minister at Wang Situ's birthday party. However, this person tried every means to win over the old ministers in the court, hoping to meet His Majesty and prove that he is a true Han clan relative. Liu Bei is a very ambitious person." Cao Cao continued to speak jealously.
