"Meng De, it's been three days, but you still haven't found the Young Emperor and Prince Chen Liu?”
At this moment, in a manor outside Luoyang City, Xun Zhen looked at Cao Cao, who was drinking in silence, and could not help but raise his eyebrows.
"No, I haven't. We've searched the entire Northern Mang Mountain over the past few days.
Even though Zhang Rang and Duan Gui's bodies had already been found in the river.
However, there was still no sign of the Young Empress or Prince Chen Liu.”
"What did Empress Dowager He and the three chancellors say?”
"What else can I say? Empress Dowager He has been crying all day. I don't know if she's crying for her two dead brothers or for the Young Empress.
The three Grand Dukes of the Imperial Court, Liu Kuan and Situ Yuanfeng, had passed away not long ago, so only Sikong Yang Biao was in charge.
It wasn't until last night that all the officials of the Imperial Court filled the positions of the three dukes.
The original Sikong, Yang Biao, was promoted to Grand Marshal. Then, Yang Biao recommended Wang Yun to be the Situ, and Sikong was succeeded by Yuan Kui.
Hmm? Yuan Rang, why are you in such a hurry? What happened?”
Just as Cao Cao was speaking, Xiahou Dun suddenly walked over in a hurry.
"Meng De, the emperor and Prince Chen Liu have been found!”
Hearing this, Cao Cao immediately stood up from his seat and said happily,
"Good! The heavens really bless my Great Han!"
"Meng De!"
Seeing Xiahou Dun's hesitant expression, Cao Cao immediately felt that something was wrong. He frowned and asked,
"Yuan Rang, what happened? Could it be that something had happened to the Emperor and Prince Chen Liu?”
"Yes, although the Emperor and Prince Chen Liu have been found, they were secretly detained in the barracks by Dong Zhuo.”
"Dong Zhuo? The governor of Xiliang, Dong Zhuo? Wasn't he in Liangzhou?
Could it be?"
Thinking of this, Cao Cao turned to Xun Zhen and smiled bitterly,
"As expected, Wenyuan was right again. Sigh."
"What does Meng De plan to do next?”
Hearing this, Cao Cao pondered for a moment before saying,"
"Cao Cao will lead his troops to Dong Zhuo's camp right now and take back the Young Emperor and Prince Chen Liu!”
"Dong Zhuo has wild ambitions.”
At this moment, Xun Zhen looked at Cao Cao with a faint smile.
Hearing this, Cao Cao's expression turned serious and he said,
"What is the sorrow of life, what is the pain of death? I, Cao Mengde, will not disappoint the world in this life!
If Dong Zhuo has the ambition of a wolf, I, Cao Mengde, will kill him for the world!”
After saying that, Cao Cao clasped his fists at Xun Zhen and turned to leave.
"Meng De, wait a moment."
"Wen Yuan, is there anything else?" At this moment, Cao Cao stopped in his tracks.
"I'll go with you guys."
"Wen Yuan, this is too dangerous!"
"Dangerous? Don't worry, Meng De. It's not as serious as you think.
You have to know that he isn't the only one who has come to Luoyang to kill eunuchs. He doesn't dare to be too presumptuous.
Otherwise, he could have directly entered Luoyang with the Young Emperor and Prince Chen Liu.”
Hearing this, Cao Cao's tightly furrowed brows immediately relaxed. Then, he nodded at Xun Zhen and said,
"Wen Yuan is right."
"Let's go, Meng De. Let's go and see what this world-famous Western Liang cavalry is like!”
"Good!"
..............
By the time Xun Zhen and Cao Cao arrived at Northern Mang Mountain with their guards, the entire mountain was already filled with arrows.
Looking into the distance, he saw two groups of people confronting each other.
On one side was a black armored cavalry. Even from several miles away, his murderous aura could not help but make one's heart skip a beat.
On one side, there was the flag of the Great Han Imperial Army.
However, compared to the people on the other side, they were obviously less murderous.
"Dong Zhuo! You left Liangzhou without permission, not only did you invade the land of the emperor in Luoyang, but you also detained the emperor privately. What crime should you be guilty of?!”
Situ Wangyun stood in front of the army and shouted at Dong Zhuo.
"I'm not guilty! I was ordered by Great General He to bring troops to Luoyang to kill officials!
As for you saying that I detained Tian Zi without permission? Wang Situ, don't slander me!
Who in the Han Dynasty doesn't know that Dong Zhuo is a loyal and loyal man!
On the contrary, you are not virtuous, but you steal the court and manipulate the court, causing the emperor to be in trouble!
If I, Dong Zhuo, hadn't come in time, what kind of emperor would this man have?!”
At the foot of Northern Mang Mountain, Dong Zhuo, who was dressed in armor, sat on his horse and said proudly.
Before this, after Dong Zhuo received the urgent summons from the Ten Attendants and He Jin, he immediately gathered his troops and rushed to Luoyang.
Originally, he was prepared to take advantage of both the Ten Attendants of the Eternal and He Jin, waiting for the right price.
However, what he never expected was that He Jin and the Ten Attendants of the Eternal would die one after another.
This way, while he lost the control of his head, he could vaguely see another, broader road.
Thus, when he had coincidentally met the Young Emperor and Queen Chen Liu at Northern Mang Mountain, he had immediately adopted the advice of his advisor, Li Ru.
First, he put the two of them under house arrest in the army, then he went to inform the officials of the imperial court, so that they could use this as a bargaining chip to obtain greater benefits.
Now, the benefits seemed to be in his hands!
