In Xudu's palace, Liu Xie indeed summoned Dong Cheng.

"Uncle Guo, I actually understand your thoughts," Liu Xie said lightly.

Dong Cheng glanced in confusion, and he said in panic: "I don't understand what Your Majesty is going to say."

Liu Xie smiled and said, "It's time for this, why should the uncle be so hypocritical to me? You also want to rebel against Cao Cao, otherwise you wouldn't have conspired with Sima Fang without hiding it."

Dong Cheng frowned slightly. He could hear the deeper meaning of Liu Xie's words. Not only did he want to oppose Cao Cao, he even wanted to be the second Cao Cao.

However, Liu Xie did not say it clearly. Dong Cheng hesitated for a moment, did not continue to be hypocritical, and nodded and said, "I have this intention!"

"Liu Bei is here in Xudu, which is a good opportunity for us. I don't think he is a fake emperor uncle. What about you, uncle?" Liu Xie said again.

"I have checked the genealogy before, and it is certainly changed by Cao Cao, and Liu Bei must be of the blood of the Han Dynasty."

Dong Cheng did not deny this.

Liu Xie snorted coldly: "Cao thief is hateful, I wish I could get rid of it quickly!"

"This time, I left my uncle behind. In fact, I have something to ask, Eunuch Zhang!"

As soon as he finished his words, Eunuch Zhang walked in slowly with a piece of clothing.

Liu Xie said again: "In this set of brocade and jade belt, there is a secret edict from me. Go to the prison to meet Liu Bei, give him the secret edict, and then rescue him from the city, lead Yuan Shao's troops to defeat Cao according to the previous plan."

Dong Cheng quickly stood up, lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, this move is too risky!"

Liu Xie said: "Don't the uncle want to resist?"

Dong Cheng shook his head and said, "But if we lead Yuan Shao's troops to come, even if we fight inside and outside, Yuan Shao is not kinder than Cao Cao."

Liu Xie smiled and said, "This depends on how you think about the uncle. If Yuan Shao can help defeat Cao Cao without being controlled by Yuan Shao, it is indeed a bit difficult, but it is not impossible. I believe that the uncle can do it, and the uncle Liu can do it too, so why should I be afraid of Yuan Shao?"

He only thought about Dong Cheng for a long time and nodded and said, "Your Majesty is right. For Your Majesty and for the Han Dynasty, no matter how risk is, I am not afraid. I will go to see Liu Bei now."

"But, I have a little bit of concern!"

Dong Cheng suddenly thought of someone's figure and said, "With Chen Yang here, things may be difficult. I think Sima Fang's plan to win Xu Du was broken by him."

Liu Xie thought about it carefully for a while and said, "Leave Chen Yang to me to deal with it. I will summon him into the palace and delay it. You just need to save people and leave the city. It is best to act tonight!"

"yes!"

Dong Cheng nodded.

Then he left the palace.

However, Dong Cheng never expected that as soon as he walked out of the palace gate, he saw Cao Cao walking towards him.

"Prime Minister!"

Dong Cheng felt nervous, worried that the matter would be exposed, but he forced himself to calm down and bowed.

"Uncle Guo looks very afraid of me?" Cao Cao smiled.

"The prime minister's majesty makes me dare not be afraid." Dong Cheng became even more nervous.

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Don't be afraid of uncle. I happened to pass by, please give me a try!"

After saying that, Cao Cao left directly.

Dong Cheng couldn't figure out what Cao Cao wanted to do this for a moment, and he secretly thanked that the secret edict was hidden in his belt. If Cao Cao discovered it, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Your Majesty is also far-sighted!"

He didn't dare to stay and hurried back home.

Then, Dong Cheng called Chung Ji, Wu Shuo, Wang Zifu and other well-known ministers around him.

In addition, Dong Cheng also asked someone to conspire with Kong Rong and Yang Biao. After all, they also participated in the last time they helped Sima Fang uprising.

What surprised Dong Cheng was that Kong Rong and Yang Biao rejected him.

"You will definitely regret it!" Dong Cheng said.

After a while, Zhong Ji and others finally arrived at Dong Cheng's mansion, and they conspired together to rescue Liu Bei.

On the other hand, Cao Cao was shocked when he saw Dong Cheng coming out of the palace and his face turned pale.

"Let Zian be right again!"

Without Chen Yang's reminder, Cao Cao would not dare to imagine what would happen next.

At the same time, a trace of murderous intent flashed in Cao Cao's eyes.

Emperor Liu Xie really wants to resist him!

Afterwards, Cao Cao also returned home immediately, and then called Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others to discuss how to act tonight.

——

"General Chen, Your Majesty invites you to the palace. Your Majesty said, please do not refuse."

Nearly evening, Eunuch Zhang came to Chen's mansion and said that the emperor wanted to summon Chen Yang.

"good!"

Chen Yang did not refuse, nodded and agreed.

Seeing that Chen Yang did not make things difficult for him, Eunuch Zhang relaxed, but he said with some concern: "General Chen, you have to be careful!"

Chen Yang just smiled slightly at his reminder, as if he had known that Liu Xie would have such arrangements.

However, as soon as Chen Yang walked to the door of the Chen Mansion, he saw Fang Hua walking in anxiously and shouting: "Master, no, there is a woman covered in blood lying outside the door!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang walked out first and saw a plump woman lying on the steps in front of the door.

The woman's left heart was pierced through her mouth, and the wound came out from her back, which was shocking.

Chen Yang stepped forward and looked at it, exclaiming: "Madam Gan!"

Then, he explored Gan Qian's breath and said, "It shouldn't hurt the heart. She is still alive. Lao Fang, go and call Yuanhua here quickly and make sure to save her."

"yes!"

Fang Hua hurried back to invite Hua Tuo.

However, Chen Yang unexpectedly saw a bloody word next to Gan Qian's hand that was very messy and had not even finished.

"open!"

Although she didn't write it all, Chen Yang could still judge what she was going to write based on the general outline.

"Is Zhang Fei?" Chen Yang murmured in his heart.

Gan Qian also came to Xudu with Liu Bei, but like Guan Yu, she only lives in the guest room in the restaurant for the time being.

"Store, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei!"

Chen Yang pondered for a moment and immediately ordered someone to see what happened to Guan Yu.

After a while, the sent out rushed back and said that Guan Yu had been staying in the room and had never left the door for a step.

"Mrs. Gan suddenly appears here, it must have something to do. I can't be careless this time!" Chen Yang thought to himself.

I remember that when he was in Xia Pi, Mrs. Gan had informed him, and as now, he had to be more cautious.

"General Chen, you have been wasting a lot of time. Please come to the palace with me!" Eunuch Zhang urged anxiously.

"Okay, I get it."

Before leaving, Chen Yang pulled Wang Yue aside and whispered: "Wang Yue, you don't have to follow me tonight, do as I arranged at the beginning!"

Wang Yue nodded.

Then, Chen Yang and Eunuch Zhang went to the palace to meet Liu Xie.

In the palace, Chen Yang was not worried about what would happen, but outside the palace, he couldn't guarantee it.

Soon, it was already late at night.

The sky above Xu Ducheng seemed to be shrouded in an extremely depressing atmosphere.
