Liu Xie frowned, and looked at Dong Cheng with his eyes, wondering if he had a different opinion.

Seeing Liu Xie's look, Dong Cheng said helplessly: "Your Majesty, Cao Cao's subjugation of Si Li is also a good thing, after all, what he does is based on His Majesty's orders." ”

"Moreover, if Cao's army does not stop, it may also be that Cao Cao's generals did it privately, and the so-called generals are not subject to military orders abroad."

Although Cao Cao's words were full of respect, but under his encirclement, Liu Xie could not feel at ease, what he wanted was to firmly control freedom and destiny in his own hands.

The puppet life of several times had already made him fed up, and he didn't want to experience it again.

The two most trusted ministers, both of whom had nothing to do, agreed to compromise Cao Cao, so that Liu Xie came to Luoyang and felt powerless for the first time.

Liu Xie said: "Okay, tomorrow at the court meeting, the widow will allow Cao Cao to facilitate again, and let him occupy the counties under this division." ”

Hearing Liu Xie's helpless voice, the two of them, as courtiers, were also ashamed.

Seeing that the faces of the two were ugly, Liu Xie knew that he would have to rely on them more in the future, and he couldn't see them lose their spirits, so he hurriedly spoke out to appease them.

Liu Xie said: "The two Aiqing don't need to be discouraged, Cao Cao's recovery of Si Li is also good for the widow, facing Cao Cao alone, it is better than facing dozens of forces, you can save a lot of worry." ”

Dong and Yang have been officials for many years, and they are both old and calculating, so they naturally know what Liu Xie means.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the ministers will have strong winds and waves."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the ministers have come all the way from Chang'an, and they have escaped death, how can they be knocked down by this little difficulty."

Seeing that the two of them recovered, Liu Xie changed the topic and said: "Counting the time, the envoy to Youzhou should also come back, is there something wrong?" ”

Liu Xie's words made the two of them involuntarily think of Cao Cao's previous suggestion to withdraw the proposal to call Li Huiyi's daughter as the queen.

Could it be that Cao Cao also has something to do with this, which made both of them surprised.

Dong Cheng said: "Your Majesty, will Cao Cao do anything about this matter?" ”

Cao Cao?

Did he intercept the messenger in order to prevent this from happening?

Yang Biao shook his head and said, "Impossible, Cao Cao is a man of life, and he will never do such a thing." ”

Liu Xie nodded and said, "That's what Li Huiyi did on purpose, didn't he want to send his daughter here?" ”

It's impossible, if Li Huiyi's daughter becomes a daughter, it will also be beneficial to him, and it is impossible for him to disagree.

This made the three of them want to break their heads, and they didn't know what was going on in Youzhou.

Perhaps they will never understand how people who value family affection make decisions about their loved ones.

Dong Chengdao: "Your Majesty, do you want to no longer send envoys to secretly go to Youzhou to find out a thing or two?" ”

"Well, that's all there is to it for now." Liu Xie nodded and said, "Oh, by the way, this year is the first New Year in Luoyang, how is the arrangement?" ”

Dong Chengdao: "Everything is properly arranged, there will be no problems." ”

Liu Xie said: "That's good, the two Aiqing should be busy." ”

Seeing off the two, Liu Xie thought alone for a long time, and finally made up his mind, stood up and walked to the inner bedroom, lifted a mural on the wall, and pushed it up.

An adult-sized entrance slowly appeared on the wall of the "Boom ......", and Liu Xie walked in without stopping.

After walking in the dark for a while, dozens of young people were in front of him, practicing swordsmanship.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, everyone stopped moving and looked at the comer.

"Your Majesty is greeted."

"Get up." Liu Xie waved his hand and walked towards Shi A, who was the leader. "Where's the teacher? Take the widow with you. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Shi Ah saluted respectfully and led the way.

When he came to the first stone room, he saw that Wang Yue was dealing with the letters on the dark table, and Liu Xie waved away Shi A.

"Teacher, I've been doing well lately." Liu Xie strode into the stone room and said with a smile on his face.

Hearing the voice, Wang Yue hurriedly stood up and said, "The minister has seen Your Majesty." ”

Liu Xie said: "The teacher doesn't need to be polite, the widow came today, but there is something that the teacher needs to do." ”

Wang Yue has never appeared in front of everyone since he settled down in Luoyang, and it is obvious that Liu Xie wants to hide him as a trump card.

But now Liu Xie wants him to go out in person, and it seems that this matter is extraordinary.

Wang Yue Zhengse said: "Your Majesty can arrange it, and the minister will definitely live up to his mission." ”

Liu Xie nodded and said, "How is Cao Cao, the master of Enshijue?" ”

Wang Yue said: "Being in the world without being surprised, knowing how to make good use of people, is a rare talent." ”

Liu Xie nodded and said: "Yes, it's a pity that it is not used by the widow, so the widow decided to get rid of him, and the teacher can be confident." ”

Hearing Liu Xie's words, Wang Yue was shocked, except for Cao Cao, I am afraid that the situation that has finally stabilized will fall into chaos again.

Wang Yue said anxiously: "Your Majesty, the minister can kill Cao Cao, but as soon as Cao Cao dies, his subordinates will not be controlled, and if they besiege Luoyang, it will cause a catastrophe." ”

It's not that Liu Xie hasn't thought about this problem, it's just that Cao Cao put too much pressure on him, making it difficult for him to sleep.

Liu Xiedao: "At present, Cao Cao has nearly 30,000 troops outside Luoyang City, and the army of all the princes, soldiers and horses and widows is just equal to him, so there is no need to worry about the siege of the city." ”

It seemed that Liu Xie's mind had been decided, and Wang Yue said helplessly: "Since Your Majesty must kill Cao Cao, the minister can only receive orders." ”

Liu Xie said: "Okay, without further ado, the teacher will act tonight, so as not to have too many dreams at night." “

From Liu Xie's words, Wang Yue got a message, that is, Cao Cao must die.

Liu Xie instructed several times, and then left the underground secret room, so as not to stay for a long time and be discovered.

After thinking about it, Wang Yue began to prepare, selected more than ten dead soldiers who had been following him for a long time, and asked his disciple Shi A to accompany him to ensure the success of the plan.

The cold wind was blowing, the moon was high and the wind was dark, and more than ten people quickly disappeared into the streets of Luoyang without making a sound.

Because the ruins of Luoyang have not been fully restored, Cao Cao does not plan to stay for a long time, but holds the hope of moving the capital, so he has been living in the military camp in the city.

There are only nearly 1,000 soldiers and horses in the city, but they are all veterans selected from the army, and most of Cao Cao's generals are in the city.

In Cao Junshuai's tent, Cao Cao was already asleep, unaware that danger was gradually approaching.

The guards guarding the tent door had a trace of thin ice in their eyes due to the cold weather, but they were still staring ahead.

Suddenly, in the dark night, there was a sound of breaking the air, and the guards were curious, and just as they wanted to go forward to investigate, they felt a numb neck, their mouth opened wide, and they looked incredulous, and slowly fell.

Just as the bodies of the two guards at the tent door were about to hit the ground, suddenly the two of them quickly approached and helped them up, and then more than ten people quickly approached.

Without a single word or movement, two people were automatically left to take over the position of the guard, and the rest of the people scattered in all directions, and only the remaining two quietly entered the tent.

Seeing that Cao Cao was asleep with his back to the tent door, the two glanced at each other and raised their swords to stab at him.

Seeing that Cao Cao was about to die in his sleep, the situation suddenly changed dramatically.

Cao Cao on the bed suddenly rolled over, knocked the bed over, avoided the stabbing sword, and shouted for help.

"Someone, there's an assassin, come ......"
