Chapter 243 Jade Seal (1/3)
"After all I have had the friendship of my fellow comrades, why should I kill you like this?" Cao Cao sighed.
"It is precisely because I appreciate you that I just detain you. Don't misunderstand my hard work." Fang Mu said meaningfully.
Have you seen that Liu Bei’s grave grass is several feet tall?
If there is a chance, Li Shimin and Zhu Yuanzhang dare to appear in front of Fang Mu, but there is no guard protection around him. Fang Mu will definitely kill them with one knife without revealing his identity.
Cao Cao is just starting out now, and he is still surrounded by his clan. The army has also made a lot of efforts in the process of defying Dong this time, and now there are only a few hundred people left.
In this case, even if Cao Cao is forcibly seized, there will be no hidden dangers, because Cao Cao has no power yet.
Cao Cao understood what Fang Mu meant.
Although Fang Mu regards himself as a threat, the other princes of the states, Tao Qian, Han Fu, and Kong Rong, who are also seeking Dong, are Tao Qian, Han Fu, and Kong Rong? Why do they have to stare at me, Cao Mengde, a captain?
"If you want to hurt your brother, you will not step over my body!"
Xiahou Dun stepped forward and stood in front of Cao Cao, drew out his sword and was on guard.
"Look at the big fire, is this fire only burning Luoyang?" Fang Mu pointed to Luoyang, which had become a sea of fire in front of him.
Countless people were frightened and struggled to escape from the city gate.
The sea of fire was filled with the sound of house burning and beams collapsed.
"It also burned the last energy of Zhonghan." Fang Mu said, "It is worthy of being Li Wenyou. His fire burned at least tens of thousands of troops and more people. The last backbone of Zhonghan was also burned by him, and it was broken."
On a high slope thirty miles outside the city, Li Ru looked at Luoyang City where the fire was soaring into the sky. A large cloud suddenly gathered above Luoyang City. Li Ru did not do anything anymore, and the corner of her clothes danced in the wind, "From now on, there will be no more Han in the world."
In a trance, Li Ru seemed to see the scene of heroes rising up, the mountains, rivers, sun and moon against the universe.
Over Luoyang City, dark clouds accumulate.
The strategists in the Dongmeng army began to pray for rain. Although Fang Mu was happy to see other princes burned, there were not only princes in Luoyang City, but also ordinary people. Fang Mu asked Jia Xu and Guo Jia to pray for rain. There was no rain in Japan today. The three of them worked together to borrow a thousand pieces of rain within a quarter of an hour. The fire in the city was wiped out by the rain.
Looking at the heavy rain, Li Ru stared deeply. Although he failed to confront each other head-on, he was just a duel, Li Ru could feel that the other party was definitely not inferior to him in his plan.
But it was precisely because of this that he was even more excited. "Good!"
When the fire in the city slowed down, Fang Mu led his army into the city, and the city was full of burning traces.
Fang Mu walked towards the palace and came outside the palace. Fang Mu asked his generals to block the entrances and exits of the palace and strictly prohibited others from entering and leaving. The place where the books on the Taoist sacred powers of the army were emptied, and there was not even a single volume left in it.
"As expected," Fang Mu said calmly. "Where should there be a book of military powers besides the imperial palace?" Fang Mu asked.
"The aristocratic family storage should have it." Jia Xu said.
"Go and borrow." Fang Mu sent some people to salvage various wells in the palace. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be in the well. Of course, it is possible that the palace maid had not had time to jump into the well and commit suicide.
Fang Mu took people to the palace again, forced the eunuch to find out where Liu Xie was. When he arrived, the building was empty.
"Those who cannot escape are either in the secret passage or just escaped for a while. The fire had spread out from the palace before, so they would definitely not be able to leave the palace." Jia Xu said after observing.
Later, when Huang Zhong was searching, he found Liu Xie, who wanted to escape from the palace in a secret passage and brought him.
"No... don't kill me. I'm obedient in whatever you ask me to do. I'm very obedient." Liu Xie forced himself to calm down.
Liu Xie, who had just turned eight, was not even a teenager. He was wearing eunuch's clothes and had fair skin. He grabbed the corners of his clothes with both hands, and was nervous and nervous from time to time to time secretly looked up at Fang Mu.
"So clever." Fang Mu lowered his head, looked at Liu Xie seriously, and suddenly reached out and touched Liu Xie's head, and said gently.
When Fang Mu touched his head, Liu Xie became a little bolder and carefully observed Fang Mu.
When he found that Fang Mu saw him, he quickly turned his head away.
"If you want to see it, just watch it carefully." Fang Mu said, "I am different from that treacherous minister Dong Zhuo."
Because I was not a minister of the Central Han Dynasty from beginning to end.
Fang Mu said silently in his heart.
Upon getting up, Fang Mu looked around the devastated palace, and the palace maids and eunuchs gathered around to look at him in fear. Fang Mu said, "The young emperor Liu Bian was abducted by the treacherous minister Dong Zhuo, but the Central Han Dynasty must not be without a king for a day. From now on, Liu Xie will be the new emperor of the Central Han Dynasty."
Cao Cao looked at Fang Mu in shock, and he suddenly understood something.
It turns out that you are the same person as Dong Zhuo from beginning to end.
"Luoyang City was burned and close to Bingzhou, Liangzhou, and it is no longer suitable to become the residence of the new emperor. Dong Zhuo can go south again at any time, so you will leave with me to Youzhou." Fang Mu said.
With Liu Xie in hand, even if Liu Bian is in hand, Fang Mu no longer needs to be afraid of Dong Zhuo's hijacking the emperor and ordering the princes.
You have your Liu Bian, and I have my Liu Xie.
Although there is nominal orthodoxy, it is better to be easy for me to control.
"The lord has found it! He was held in a well by a palace maid. It must have been a few days."
A soldier came to report that the jade seal they held in their hands was handed to Fang Mu.
Fang Mu took the jade seal and a smile appeared on his face.
Isn’t my Liu Xie’s butt straight now?
With the jade seal in hand, it is more convincing than anything else.
Cao Cao's face was gloomy and clear.
"Meng De, you should have thought about it for a long time along the way. Whether you go or stay is up to you." Fang Mu said gently. Fang Mu never likes to force others in his actions.
Cao Cao took a deep breath, "I am willing to go to Youzhou with the new emperor."
"Haha." Fang Mu hugged Cao Cao's shoulder and said intimately. "I said I won't force you."
Cao Cao automatically filtered this passage, and he knew that if he had refused just now, he might have lost his head now.
......
At this time, Dong Zhuo led his army back to Liangzhou.
Lu Bu rode a Red Rabbit Horse and led one of the troops, followed by Hao Meng, Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, Song Xian and Hou Cheng.
Hou Cheng rode forward, "General."
Lu Bu was worried at this moment, and nodded lightly, looking straight ahead.
"I wonder if the general has read the bamboo slips of military powers," Hou Cheng said.
"Hmm?" Lu Bu was puzzled.
Hou Cheng immediately told Lu Bu about the thousands of military magical bamboo slips collected by the Central Han Palace. "There are bamboo slips accumulated in the Central Han Palace for a hundred years. Mo Jiang also accidentally learned about it. He wanted to borrow the book but was severely scolded by Li Jue. But Li Jue and Guo Si of the Western Liang Army could read and watch it at will. Mo Jiang felt that the Grand Master was really unfair."
Hou Cheng said this because he wanted to peek at Li Jue's bag not long ago, and then scolded him hard. Therefore, Hou Cheng has always held a grudge and left with Dong Zhuo and the others today. He observed that General Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo seemed to have something wrong with each other during this period, so he stepped forward to tell all this.
"There are thousands of volumes?"
"Don't the general know?" Hou Cheng saw that the opportunity came and immediately said in surprise.
Lu Bu's face was unstable. Dong Zhuo rewarded him with two volumes, but unfortunately he was not very consistent with him, so he learned it very obscure and slow. He was still grateful at the beginning. Unexpectedly, Dong Zhuo was still on guard against his move. "I, Lu Bu, have always been loyal and treated Dong Zhuo as my father, but he treated me like this!"
"General, General Dong Zhuo's Taoist scrolls were all for his Liangzhou subordinates to watch, but he was unwilling to give us a look. I saw that Dong Zhuo was obviously unwilling to use us. You see, before defending Luoyang City, we were also on our Bingzhou Army. The Liangzhou cavalry hid in the city to raise their energy and accumulate strength. We have finished all the hard work and tiring work. The Liangzhou Army only sat behind and enjoyed the best treatment..." Hou Cheng said.
"Okay!" Lu Bu interrupted Hou Cheng. "I don't mention this for now, I know what it means."
Lu Bu's already cold face appeared a little colder.
He looked up and looked into the distance, where Dong Zhuojun was in the direction.
