Any fool can see that Ding Yuan and Lu Zhi are loyal, while Dong Zhuo and Li Ru are traitors.
But the emperor gave Dong Zhuo the power to be under one person and over ten thousand people, and dispatched Lu Zhi and Ding Yuan to the border!
Is it fatuous?
Or was it threatened by Dong Zhuo?
Cao Cao's heart was full of confusion.
"I heard that after Taishi Dong came to Beijing, you took the initiative to seek refuge. You supported Taishi Dong's military and political affairs very much, and set an example for Beijing officials."
"It's not like other people who blindly obstruct the Grand Master and seriously affect the security of the city."
"You've done a great job. I appointed you Henan Yin."
"I hope you will continue to work hard and cooperate with the grand master to ensure the safety of the capital and safeguard the great Han country!"
wow——
As soon as this remark came out, there was an uproar in the hall!
Everyone was stunned by Liu Bian's appointment.
He was promoted from Lieutenant of Dianjun to Yin of Henan, jumping several grades, this is a precedent that has never been done by a big man!
The reason is even more nonsensical,
Is it because Cao Cao took refuge in the jackal Dong Zhuo?
What does it mean?
Tell us all not to oppose Dong Zhuo, will there be a reward for joining Dong Zhuo?
For a time,
Those ordinary officials looked at Dong Zhuo with ambiguous eyes.
But those family officials and court officials were completely disappointed with Liu Bian.
Rewards and punishments are endless, such an emperor will only lose people's hearts!
Even Cao Cao himself was a little at a loss.
He wants to be promoted,
He really didn't want to accept the official position that could be promoted in this way.
The happiest people at the moment are Dong Zhuo and Li Ru.
They thought that the emperor's award of the post of grand master was a way to delay the army.
Now it seems that they are worrying too much.
The act of the emperor rewarding Cao Cao undoubtedly pushed the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty to them.
"Okay, let's go."
Liu Bian waved his hand, stood up,
"Oh yes, one more thing."
"Send my Tang concubine to the palace in a while, and send someone to tell Tang Mao, the prefect of Kuaiji, that he has given birth to a good daughter. Let him come to the capital, and I will promote him to be Sikong."
After finishing speaking, he turned and walked towards the harem.
Leaving the civil and military officials of the court full of horror...
It's just that if you give birth to a good daughter, you can be ranked among the three princes!
This……
This little emperor simply regards the court system as nothing!
Faint Lord!
【Ding! 】
[Congratulations to the host for rewarding and punishing as he pleases, not following the court rules and regulations, and rewarding a thousand royal guards! 】
I rely on!
Another thousand!
cool!

Chapter 8 Cao Mengde Crazy Brain Supplement, Ding Jianyang Weeps
After the meeting was over, everyone didn't move, but waited for Dong Zhuo and his party to leave before gathering together in twos and threes.
"You said what happened to the emperor today, even the emperor Lu Zigan was demoted to Fangzhou County?"
"The most irritating thing is that Cao Mengde, who was able to get such a generous reward for being a thief."
"The emperor's rewards and punishments are unknown, this is the disaster of disorderly government."
"Yes, from now on, whoever wants to do things for the court in a down-to-earth manner should go curry favor with the country's thieves!"
"Shh..."
Everyone was discussing vigorously, when suddenly someone saw Cao Cao approaching and quickly silenced.
"Cao Mengde, congratulations."
Cao Cao was thinking while walking, and when he heard someone say hello, he glanced at them.
"Wang Situ, Zhao Yilang, Cai Zhonglang."
Cao Cao clasped his fists one by one, not arrogant.
Because he himself didn't understand what it meant for the emperor to suddenly upgrade him to several levels.
back home,
Cao Cao is still thinking about this problem,
"What does the Son of Heaven mean?"
He absolutely did not believe the reason that the emperor himself said.
Just because he took refuge in Dong Zhuo, he was promoted from Lieutenant of Dianjun to Yin of Henan, jumping four ranks in a row!
Bullshit!
"In the past few days, the emperor has been controlled by Dong thief. Could it be that Dong thief threatened the emperor to do so, in order to create an illusion for the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty that if they take refuge in him, they will be rewarded?"
Cao Cao muttered, still puzzled.
"No, no, even if the emperor is threatened, he doesn't need to drive Ding Yuan and Lu Zhi away?"
"All fools know that only Ding Yuan's strength and Lu Zhi's reputation can contain Dong Zhuo. Driving them away is equivalent to driving away the hunters and letting the wolves invade the flock."
"Also, Li Ru said that Ding Yuan and Lu Zhi rebelled, and the emperor was very angry, but he didn't increase the punishment for it."
"This is clearly protecting Ding Yuan and Lu Zhi."
"Chong'er was safe outside, and Shen Sheng died inside. Could it be that the two of them would be in danger if they stayed in the capital? The emperor knew this, so he sent them out of the capital!"
Thinking of this,
Cao Cao's eyes suddenly brightened.
"Yes, it must be like this!"
"The two of them have strong personalities and have always been against Dong Thief."
"As long as they are here, Dong Thief's abolition of the emperor will not be possible! He must want to get rid of these two stumbling blocks!"
"But it's easy for him to kill Lu Zhi, and he can assassinate him with a few followers."
"But Ding Yuan has [-] Bingzhou troops, and there are unparalleled generals like flying general Lu Bu by his side. It is definitely unrealistic to assassinate him."
Cao Cao thought about it seriously for a while,
"Snapped!"
He slapped the table heavily, and said in surprise, "The best way to kill Ding Yuan is to be a traitor!"
Thinking of this,
All the knots in my heart were untied.
"His Majesty!"
"I misunderstood you!"
Cao Cao hurriedly stepped down from his seat and knelt down in the direction of the palace, "You must know that there is no way to fight Dong thief, so you plan to sacrifice yourself to save the lives of your subjects!"
"You must have seen that the minister committed himself to being a thief in order to save the country. Therefore, he was promoted to Henan Yin, but retained the post of Lieutenant of the Dianjun, in order to let the minister retain his strength, supervise Dong thief, and wait for the opportunity to restore the country. !"
said,
Cao Cao was so moved by the emperor's manipulation that he wept bitterly.
"Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to you!"
Cao Cao gritted his teeth and raised his fist to swear!
He quickly mounted his horse, came to Beiwu Gate, and asked the guard, "Do you know how long Ding Yuan and Lu Zhi have been away?"
The guards are also Dong Zhuo's people, but they already know that Cao Cao has defected to Dong Zhuo and has become Henan Yin.
So dare not neglect.
"Go back to my lord, it's been a quarter of an hour since I left."
Because Lu Zhi's family was not in the capital, he didn't have anything to clean up, so he took a few servants with him and set out on the road with Ding Yuan.
Fortunately.
Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly chased him out.
He caught up with Ding Yuan's troops at a ferry.
"Cao Mengde, what are you doing here?!"
