Chapter 113: Hiding the truth (14)
"Lord Sikong, the cavalry general Dong Cheng and his eldest son Dong Kuang are riding towards Sikong Mansion." Just when Cao Cao hesitated, another spy came in to report.
"What are you doing?" Cao Cao didn't understand Dong Cheng's true intention, so he was suspicious and suspicious, but he couldn't act quickly. When he was hesitating, he heard that Dong Cheng came to Sikong's mansion and brought his eldest son with him. Let Cao Cao really
I feel a little surprised.
I am really in a hurry and have a headache.[
Cao Cao has been out to pacify the princes all year round, and he has been able to control the military affairs. In terms of politics, Cao Cao also has very strong skills. However, in this short period of time, the rapid rise of the crown prince Liu Feng has led to a series of problems.
This made Cao Cao feel very anxious.
"Ming Gong, no matter what, since I'm here, I have to meet you." Cheng Yu said from the side.
"Yeah." Cao Cao nodded.
Soon after, a guard came to report that Dong Cheng took his eldest son Dong Kuang to see him. Cao Cao ordered the middle gate to be opened to welcome him. Then Cao Cao turned to look at everyone present and said, "Let's go and see if this guy ate something wrong."
What kind of medicine?"
With that said, Cao Cao stood up and walked out first, and everyone followed suit.
After a while, Cao Cao came to the gate.
At this moment, the main door of Sikong Mansion was opened wide, and it was in a posture to welcome distinguished guests. Cao Cao even led the crowd to welcome them, and the scene was quite grand.
Dong Cheng stood humbly outside the door, with his eldest son Dong Kuang standing next to him.
"Lord Sikong."
Seeing Cao Cao leading the crowd out, Dong Cheng immediately saluted.
"General Chariot and Cavalry, no courtesy." Cao Cao said with a smile. Then, as if he accidentally glanced at Dong Kuang next to Dong Cheng, he said, "I wonder what General Chariot and Cavalry is here with his son?"
"I am specifically asking for forgiveness from Lord Sikong."
Dong Cheng said.
"Oh?" A bit of surprise flashed across Cao Cao's face when he heard this, and everyone behind him was more or less surprised. They didn't expect that Dong Cheng, an old man, would actually bow to others.
Even if he takes refuge, it won't be like this.
"I used to think that I was still a capable general even though my sword was not old. So I often made enemies with Sikong and wanted to compete for authority. But over the years, I felt that my energy was not as good as before. Today I finally realized that there is no need to compete in life.
Where is the temporary glory? So I came here to apologize to Sikong for what happened in the past."
Dong Cheng said to Cao Cao sincerely. As he spoke, he untied a small bag from his waist and took out a seal. This seal was Dong Cheng's official position, the seal of the General of Chariots and Cavalry.
After taking out the seal, Dong Cheng stroked it in memory and said to Cao Cao: "It is precisely because I feel that my energy is low, so I also plan to request to be dismissed and return to the field. Because Sikong has useful talents, I want to entrust him to Lord Sikong. In addition."
With that said, Dong Cheng pulled his eldest son Dong Kuang to Cao Cao and said: "In addition, I have some selfish motives. I want to entrust my eldest son to Sikong, hoping that he can follow Lord Sikong and achieve something." [
Dong Cheng said these words very smoothly, as if he had thought very carefully before coming here to say the same thing to Cao Cao. This also gave Cao Cao no time to react, and Dong Cheng had already finished what he said.
No, it wasn't that he didn't react, but he was really shocked, so Cao Cao paused.
What's going on? What's going on today? Dong Cheng first expressed his goodwill, and then immediately returned to his hometown, bringing his eldest son Dong Kuang to plead guilty. Then he presented a seal with both hands, requesting to be discharged and returned to his fields. He also asked his eldest son to follow him.
