Ever since Huangfu Song led the three armies out of Luoyang City, Dong Zhuo's faction had obvious advantages and became more and more arrogant.

In the middle of the night, Wang Yun invited several ministers to his home to discuss how to divide the Liangzhou army.Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, unable to think of a solution again and again, Wang Yun burst into tears: "The country is in danger!"

It was not popular at this time that "men don't flick their tears lightly". For a while, the sad mood seemed to be contagious, and the ministers also started crying.

"Hahahahaha..." Cao Cao was among the crowd.At this time, everyone's sadness was like a river, but he laughed.

"When the country is in peril, what's so funny!" Everyone asked Cao Cao angrily.

"What's the use of crying, a man stands upright, be quick to act!"

"Surrounded by Dong Zhuo's guards, and Lu Bu who is like a wolf like a tiger is by his side, what can we do?"

"Then Lu Bu is not always by Dong Zhuo's side. Although Cao Cao is not talented, he still has the ambition to serve the country. Cao Cao is willing to assassinate Dong Zhuo on his behalf, and hang Dong's thief's head outside the gate of the capital to thank the people of the world, but I don't know if Mr. Wang can cut his love." Cao Cao said that it happened that Dong Zhuo was going to see him tomorrow, and he was willing to kill Dong himself to eliminate harm for the country, but he would use Wang Yun's seven-star sword, the treasure of the town house, to help him.

"The knife is originally used to eliminate violence and protect the good. Come here, present the precious knife!" Wang Yun was very happy. There are too many ministers in this court who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and no one has the courage to assassinate.Overjoyed, she asked her maid Diao Chan to take out the sword and hand it to Cao Cao without hesitation.

It happened that Dong Zhuo was having fun outside the palace these few days and stayed in the prime minister's mansion.

Cao Cao came to the prime minister's mansion with a treasured sword, and Dong Zhuo asked, "Why did you come so late?"

Cao Cao lied and said: "The bad horse is unruly, and I was delayed on the road. I beg Dong Gong to forgive me."

Dong Zhuo started to win over: "So, let me pick a good horse."

Lu Bu was unhappy, but he was too lazy to argue with Dong Zhuo in front of outsiders over such trivial matters, so he went out unhappy.

On the way, he suddenly thought of the black oak wooden plaque given by Liu Xie, and thought of Cao Cao's calligraphy, and his heart suddenly moved, so he picked a black medium-sized horse at random, and hurried back.

At this time, Cao Cao saw that Dong Zhuo was the only one left in the house, so he wanted to draw his sword.But he was also afraid that Dong Zhuo, a fat man, was too strong to kill him alone.He has always been fearless, but he takes his own life very seriously. At this critical moment, he hesitates: Anyway, this risky assassination will definitely become famous all over the world, and it doesn't necessarily have to cost his own life.

Dong Zhuo was obese. After sitting for a while, he felt tired and turned back to take a nap.Cao Cao hurriedly drew his sword to stab him, but Dong Zhuo saw Cao Cao drawing his sword behind his back from the mirror, and suddenly turned over: "What are you doing?"

Cao Cao was very panicked, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Cao Xin got a treasured sword. Heroes have been equipped with swords since ancient times. I would like to present it to you." So he pretended to be docile, lowered his head, and presented the seven-star sword.

Dong Zhuo took it over and took a look, only to see that the knife was very elegant and luxurious, with the seven treasures inlaid on the handle, shining brightly.The blade was extremely sharp and glowed with a cold light, and he couldn't put it down immediately, and praised: "Good knife! You have a heart, go down and receive the reward."

Cao Cao tricked Dong Zhuo for a while, when Lu Bu arrived at the door, looking at him coldly.

Cao Cao broke out in a cold sweat. He looked at Lu Bu's face and saw that he had not made a sound, so he pretended to be calm and left the mansion under the pretext of trying his horse.Under the watchful eyes of the guards at the gate, he only pretended to lead the horse for a few steps at first, but when he saw that Lu Bu hadn't come out, he got on his horse and galloped away, leaving the city gate quickly.

Only then did Dong Zhuo come to his senses and realized that Cao Cao was going to assassinate him just now, so he immediately ordered Lu Bu to pursue him.

Lu Bu chased him on his red rabbit horse, and chased him all the way out of the city. After chasing until dark, he didn't see Cao Cao's shadow.I speculated in my heart: Could it be that Cao Cao belonged to Liu Xie, and that didn't look like it. After all, Liu Xie meant to kill Cao Cao.After thinking about it, I couldn't figure it out.

Could it be that there is really the ability to predict?Lu Bu shook his head.

When Cao Cao was not caught, Dong Zhuo was furious and hurriedly ordered to draw Cao Cao's picture and send it to various places to catch Cao Cao.It's just that he didn't expect that this move would make Cao Cao, a humble official's son, famous all over the world.

After chasing for a whole day, Lu Bu didn't feel tired, but because he was tossing and turning thinking about things this night, he woke up in a bad mood.At dawn, he took Cheng Lian out unhappy.There is a famous Tongfu noodle restaurant in Luoyang City near his residence.The noodle soup here is made from wild pheasant meat, served with vinegar, and sprinkled with a thin layer of chopped green onion. It is a well-known delicacy in Luoyang City.

Seeing Lu Bu, the guy at the noodle shop hurriedly scooped out a bowl full of hot soup from the hot soup stove. Although the hot soup was diluted with broth, it still smelled delicious, and quickly cooked a bowl of noodles .Lu Bu picked up the sea bowl, which was obviously twice the size of an ordinary guest, and drank it wheezingly.

"It looks delicious."

A crisp voice sounded.Then, a boy in a brown cloth came in: "Man, how much is a bowl?"

"Young guest officer, a bowl of three Wen coins, please sit inside." The waiter saw that the young man was dressed plainly, but his face and hands showed no signs of hard work, his skin was delicate and fair, and he looked like he was pampered at home. Enthusiastically called.

The boy said, "It's so expensive, can it be cheaper?"

Holding the bowl, Cheng Lian was dumbfounded: It's nothing more than a young emperor showing up here early in the morning, but the emperor who is rich all over the world is actually pouting and asking for a price!

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, ordinary people only ate some millet and corn, and noodles were considered an expensive staple food, and the price of three Wenqian was definitely not cheap for the common people.It wasn't the first time the guy heard this kind of complaint, he said with a smile: "Objectively, our noodle soup is made of high-quality chicken soup, and the noodle soup is so strong that there is no better noodle in Luoyang city. How can you talk about expensive?"

"I just need a small bowl, it's cheaper." Liu Xie shrugged and continued.

Cheng Lian quickly stood up and saluted, Liu Xie waved his hand, signaling him to sit down.

Lu Bu couldn't help it, took out a string of money and slapped it on the table: "I'll pay for his money, so there's no need to change it."

Liu Xie also glanced at him, as if you were so wasteful, and just sat down opposite him.

"The emperor..."

"No, the general's voice is too loud, so you don't need to be formal when you are outside, just call me Biaozi."

Lu Bu didn't care about these etiquettes, but he didn't call him that. He just frowned and asked, "Who does Cao Cao belong to?"

"Why do you have to belong to others?" Liu Xie shrugged, as if you were thinking too much: "He belongs to himself."

Lu Bu looked disbelieving: "Why did you give me that brand?"

Liu Xie's tone was full of praise: "Of course it's because the general is my number one hero, like a red rabbit on a horse, with the appearance of a god descending from the earth, and people can't help but want to write praise on the sign."

Because of being too sincere, Lu Bu felt uncomfortable: "I'm talking about another piece."

"Oh," Liu Xie casually said, resting his chin, "I watched the sky at night, and found that the general's fate must be doomed, and it has something to do with the word "fuck", so I gently reminded him."

"Heh," Lu Bu sneered, not hiding his temper outside the palace: "Someone is pretending to be a ghost again."

Liu Xie didn't care about it: "Since you believe that you are pretending to be a ghost, don't care about this little thing."

Lu Bu didn't know what to do, he was silent for a few seconds and asked, "Why are you here?"

"Try this famous noodle shop, and I will discuss something with you along the way." Liu Xie mentioned a person: "Dong Zhuo recommended Liu Biao to go to Jingzhou and serve as the shepherd of Jingzhou. I don't want to do that."

"To the north of Jingzhou is Sizhou where we are, to the east is the Jianghuai region, to the west is the Bashu region, and to the south is Jiaozhou. It can be called a battleground for military strategists. Naturally, Dong Zhuo does not want to recommend someone who can control the local area." Lu Bu said indifferently: "Jingzhou is in a mess now, with the sect bandit at the head, if he sends his cronies to waste a lot of energy for his own use, he doesn't have the energy himself, so he wants to let Jingzhou continue to be chaotic. Dong Zhuo let Liu Biaoqi take office. It is certain that he cannot control Jingzhou, and it will not restrain him in the future."

"The local officials in Jingzhou are hostile to each other, and the local tyrants are everywhere. Liu Biao has no foundation and will only become the dependence of the local tyrants in the past, making no contribution to the court." Changing the officials of Jingzhou, now the prefectures and counties listen to the words of the state shepherd alone, and further down, the townships and counties listen to the county magistrate alone. If the power of each county is divided into three, one is the county magistrate, in charge of the daily life of the whole county; For the purpose of supervision, set up and command the Supervision Institute to assess officials at all levels in the county, one is a general, in charge of thousands of soldiers, and guards the city."

Lu Bu asked, "Why did you start from Jingzhou?" Liu Xie had always kept a low profile, but suddenly he acted so violently.

"Jingzhou has no leader, so let's implement this model first."

"I'm determined not to hide it from Dong Zhuo."

"Dong Zhuo just wants to keep Jingzhou in chaos. As long as an aide offers this strategy, what do you think my idea means to him?"

"It will cause chaos in Jingzhou." Lu Bu and Liu Xie looked at each other, "Normal people would say that Jingzhou is in chaos. How confident are you that you can bring Jingzhou into your pocket?"

Liu Xie was full of confidence: "What does the general think is the foundation of a country's life?"

Lu Bu was taken aback.

Liu Xie didn't wait for his answer, and said with a smile: "It's the hearts of the people. The people are the cornerstone of the country. We are just a small boat attached to the long river of the people. Living and working in peace and contentment is always the pursuit of the people. The people's opinion is a very powerful force. How to use this power to achieve the goal of orderly governance in Jingzhou is the secret of the emperor."

He blinked his eyes and saw the guy coming over with a bowl of noodles, so he said no more: "Don't you think it's interesting to see how far I can go?"

Lu Bu nodded: "That's true, what do you want me to do?"

"Why don't you take me to the mansion for a chat after dinner, anyway, I'll take a rest today." Liu Xie blinked.
