Chapter 232: Chapter 110: Crossing the Sea (11)(2)
After showing his loyalty twice, Cao Cao felt that if he were to kill him, he would also have Dong Cheng's five thousand soldiers. If Dong Cheng was eradicated, those five thousand soldiers might not be able to be used anymore.
If he stays, Dong Cheng's strength can be used. Five thousand elite soldiers are quite a fighting force.
But the problem is that Cao Cao doesn't completely believe it. In fact, he has more suspicion than belief. Again, the change is too fast.
"What do you think?" [
Cao Cao asked the people around him. Next to him were Xun Yu, Xun You, Chen Qun, Jia Xu, Cheng Yu and others. They were all wise and resourceful people. Cao Cao would usually ask about things he couldn't understand.
At this time, Xun Yu wanted to go up and tell Cao Cao, please let Dong Cheng go. However, he finally held back. It was better to stay safe.
Xun You decided not to help because of his agreement with Xun Yu. Jia Xu ignored the matter and ignored it. It didn't matter what Liu Xie's plot was, as long as it didn't endanger him, it didn't matter.
In addition to personality reasons, Cao Cao has also been a little alienated from Jia Xu recently because he is busy as the prince's young master. Jia Xu feels that he should be more stable.
Only Cheng Yu truly thought about it and then said, "Whether Dong Cheng is sincere or fake can be tested."
"Oh?" Cao Cao perked up and looked directly at Cheng Yu.
"This time Dong Cheng came in, it seemed that he had conspired with the emperor. But this time he came out to get closer to Duke Ming. He only had two purposes. One of them was to really take refuge, and the second was to pretend. Why? Because?
He sensed that Duke Ming wanted to deal with him, so he pretended, and then took the opportunity to leave the city and return to the military camp." Cheng Yu said in a low voice.
"There is indeed such a motive." Cao Cao nodded and said.
"Cheng Zhongde, Cheng Zhongde, why are you always helping?" Xun Yu was filled with hatred and stamped his feet in his heart. This Cheng Yu was recommended to Cao Cao by Xun Yu. The two had a good personal relationship, but he didn't expect that he would become Cao Cao now.
assistant.
Xun Yu was very angry because he didn't know Liu Feng's specific plan. What would he do if Cheng Yu guessed it?
"Let's do this. Don't take action for the time being. After leaving the palace, open the city gate as before. If Dong Cheng leaves the city immediately, kill him outside the city gate. I'll be responsible for anything that happens. If he stops for a while in the city, just watch him.
It's good fortune." In the end, Cao Cao also gave the choice to Dong Cheng.
If Dong Cheng leaves the city immediately, it means that there is something wrong in his heart. If he does not leave the city for a while, it means that he has given his life to him. Be sincere.
In the end, Cao Cao decided this. Even if Xun Yu was anxious, it was of no use.
Following Cao Cao's decision, everyone dispersed and returned to normal. Outsiders didn't know what the leader of the Cao family was talking about.
He could only continue towards the palace gate. The closer he got to the palace gate, the more uneasy Dong Cheng felt, because he knew that if he wanted to take action, the palace gate was the best place.
However, until the moment Dong Cheng left the palace, no one killed him.
At this time, Dong Cheng really felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. But in the end, these feelings turned into joy, because he knew that he would not have to die.
In other words, Prince Liu Feng's plan to hide the truth was successful in the first step. Cao Cao must still be suspicious in his heart, but at least he has a little foundation of trust.
Analytically speaking, it is to plead guilty and surrender military power.[
In order not to show the joy in his heart, Dong Cheng walked out quickly and walked quickly towards his carriage.
Dong Cheng walked quickly, causing Cao Cao's eyes to flash slightly, with some murderous intent. He thought Dong Cheng was planning to escape from the city and return to the military camp.
Xun Yu, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Chen Qun, Jia Xu and others also had their eyes flashed, and they all thought about it because of their positions.
When Dong Cheng came to the carriage, he immediately stepped on it and sat down on his knees.
"General, are you leaving the city immediately?" the soldier driving the carriage in front asked in a low voice. Because Dong Cheng left in a hurry, the soldier felt something was wrong and thought he should return to the camp quickly.
"No, go back home." Dong Cheng simply shook his head and said. Just kidding, he will have to bear the burden of punishment today.
"Go back to your home?" The soldier was stunned. This was the first time in several years that Dong Cheng actually wanted to go back to his home. However, he did not dare to disobey Dong Cheng's order. After being stunned for a moment, he immediately waved his whip and drove.
The carriage headed in the direction of Dong's Mansion.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The veteran will do his best.
On the carriage, Dong Cheng clenched his fists and thought to himself.
