"Sincerity?" Dong Zhuo and Li Ru looked at each other in confusion.
Ma Xiaoquan explained: "Yes, it's sincerity. Xiao Dong, how do you summon Cao Cao every time?"
Dong Zhuo said without thinking: "Just ask him to come."
"No, no!" Ma Xiaoquan said, "Since ancient times, Ming emperors have always been moved by their true feelings when accepting good ministers. In the past, Emperor Gaozu accepted Han Xin, the king of Qi, and undressed him, and gave him food. Do you understand?"
Dong Zhuo was confused after hearing this, and Li Ru quickly leaned into Dong Zhuo's ear and whispered a few words.
After listening to Li Ru's "translation", Dong Zhuo danced with joy.
Ma Xiaoquan continued to pretend to be calm.
Dong Zhuo didn't understand what Ma Xiaoquan said, but Li Ru heard it clearly.
Why did Ma Xiaoquan mention the example of Emperor Gaozu accepting Han Xin? It was to indirectly remind him that Dong Zhuo should be honored in the grand ceremony and become the 95th person. Cao Cao, who was recommended by the Immortal, could be used. He was almost used. He could be like Han Xin.
Then, kill him.
Of course, this is Li Ru’s understanding.
In fact, Ma Xiaoquan didn't think so carefully. He just felt that Liu Bang and Han Xin were not too far away from the current era, so he just went along with it. As for how others understood it, he didn't care.
After Dong Zhuo listened to Li Ru's translation, he danced with joy and promised to give Ma Xiaoquan some more beauties.
Ma Xiaoquan already had a headache about this matter, and he thought to himself that I really didn't sleep all night yesterday.
For nothing else, if it weren't for a little excitement last night, I praised Haikou in front of those three beauties and said I would send them back. Now that I think about it, I regret it...
"Hey" Ma Xiaoquan sighed.
Dong Zhuo asked: "Why did the Immortal sigh? Could it be that those three bitches made the Immortal unhappy?"
Ma Xiaoquan shook his head quickly and said: "No, no, I am very satisfied with those three, haha..."
"No, no, no, Immortal, I see that you are not satisfied, I must give you a few more..."
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaoquan quickly stopped him and said: "Xiao Dong, I appreciate your kindness. I have something to do recently and need to go out to find the ingredients for the elixir for you..."
Dong Zhuo heard that, too, his adopted son Lu Bu said he was looking for some elixir and medicinal materials for himself. Who knows if he was doing it for himself, but now, the immortal in front of him has lived for thousands of years, so he will definitely not do it.
Too concerned about that elixir of immortality.
Thinking of this, Dong Zhuo laughed and said: "If there is anything useful, Lord Shangxian, just ask."
Ma Xiaoquan laughed and said, "That's not necessary. I'm just traveling around the world to help the Taiwei collect medicinal materials. Why should I be so public about it? Besides, if my master knows about it..."
"Oh" Dong Zhuo patted his head, "I forgot, I forgot, I will punish myself with three drinks. Come on, come on, Immortal, let's drink and drink."
Ma Xiaoquan held the wine glass, clinked it with Dong Zhuo, and then interrupted: "Xiao Dong, I want to go out for a walk, how about we come together?"
When Dong Zhuo heard this, he couldn't refuse, so he and Li Ruyi got up and walked out the door accompanied Ma Xiaoquan.
As soon as he went out, he found Cao Cao looking up at the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.
Ma Xiaoquan saw it and shouted: "Xiao Cao?"
Dong Zhuo heard this, was stunned for a moment, and asked Ma Xiaoquan: "Do Shangxian and Mengde know each other?"
Ma Xiaoquan was worried that he could not find Cao Cao's people. Unexpectedly, he met Cao Cao as soon as he went out. He said that he still had the Seven-Star Sword in his hand. Of course, he didn't bring it with him.
When Cao Cao handed the Seven-Star Sword back to Ma Xiaoquan a while ago, Ma Xiaoquan was more thoughtful and put the sword down when he returned to Situ's Mansion. After all, it was really inconvenient to carry such a precious sword.
Ma Xiaoquan hummed.
"Oh no wonder!" Li Ru interjected: "No wonder Master Shangxian recommended Meng De to the Taiwei. I see..."
When Ma Xiaoquan heard this, he shook his head: "No, Li Ru, you understand what I just meant, right?"
What Ma Xiaoquan actually meant was that Cao Cao was a talent, and Li Ru understood that although Cao Cao was a talent, if he used it incorrectly, he could be killed with one blow.
Li Ru nodded and whispered a few more words of his thoughts to Dong Zhuo.
After Dong Zhuo heard this, he was so happy that he took Ma Xiaoquan's hand and said: "No one knows me better than the immortal..."
Ma Xiaoquan quickly broke away from Dong Zhuo's fat hand and thought to himself, why do people in this era like to hold other people's hands so much? You, Master Ma, I am a man, I am a modern person, and I will not mess with you.
When Cao Cao saw Ma Xiaoquan and Dong Zhuo together, he calmly saluted them.
Dong Zhuo said: "Mengde, I saw that you have an old acquaintance with Master Shangxian, so I won't beat around the bush. Now, I am in urgent need of talents like Mengde..."
When Cao Cao heard this, he looked at Ma Xiaoquan and thought to himself: You thief, you finally pushed me out.
Cao Cao pretended to salute again and said, "Captain, Cao Cao only serves the people. How can he be so virtuous and capable? I'm afraid I can't take on the responsibility..."
Dong Zhuo became unhappy upon hearing this and was about to have a fit when Ma Xiaoquan held Dong Zhuo down and shook his head.
Dong Zhuoyi saw that Master Xian was about to come forward, so he nodded without breaking out.
Ma Xiaoquan stepped forward, pulled Cao Cao aside, and whispered: "Xiao Cao, do you still think that Thief Dong is dead?"
Cao Cao was stunned and did not dare to answer.
"I know you are unwilling to give in, but you are forced by the power of the old thief Dong. I think you are feeling aggrieved in Luoyang. How about doing this..."
Ma Xiaoquan gave Cao Cao a personal development plan. To put it simply, it is: Cao Cao kills Dong Zhuo in the name of sacrificing a sword. If he fails to kill Dong Zhuo, he will then return to his hometown and make a comeback.
After hearing the personal plan given to him by Ma Xiaoquan, Cao Cao was startled and quickly asked in a low voice: "Shangxian, is this possible?"
Ma Xiaoquan looked at Dong Zhuo and Li Ru who were not far away. He was afraid that he would be suspected after a long time, so he said sternly: "What's wrong with this? This Han Dynasty will soon change its owner... The world must have surnames."
.....”
Ma Xiaoquan winked at Cao Cao as he spoke.
Cao Cao was worthy of being Cao Cao, with quick reactions and quick thinking. As soon as Ma Xiaoquan winked at him, he understood immediately. Before Ma Xiaoquan could finish speaking, Cao Cao stepped forward and covered Ma Xiaoquan's mouth, loudly saying: "Shangxian, no, everything is impossible."
It’s absolutely impossible…”
At this time, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru came forward and saw Cao Cao covering Ma Xiaoquan's mouth, and asked in confusion: "Why is Meng De like this?"
Cao Cao pretended to be nervous and looked at Dong Zhuo in horror.
Dong Zhuo became very suspicious and said sternly: "Cao Cao, if I conceal anything, I will definitely punish you!"
Cao Cao shook his head, let go of his hand, saluted Dong Zhuo, and said: "The Taiwei makes atonement. Lord Shangxian just said something to me..."
In fact, when Ma Xiaoquan and Cao Cao "deliberately" quarreled just now, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru had already heard it, but at the "most critical" moment, Cao Cao covered Ma Xiaoquan's mouth.
Dong Zhuo was also very anxious. He also wanted to know the name of the person at the helm of the new imperial power.
"Lord Shangxian!" Li Ru stepped forward and bowed to Ma Xiaoquan, "I hope that Lord Shangxian will not hesitate to give you advice."
Ma Xiaoquan pretended to sigh and said: "To be honest with you, this is a matter that has been decided by God. It's okay to tell you to wait. However, you must not fail to do what you want. Otherwise, you will be punished by God and you will die..."
Ma Xiaoquan said more than a dozen threatening words in a row. If these words were used today, it would be okay to coax a child, but if you talk to an adult, people would think you are crazy. However, it is different in this era. After Ma Xiaoquan made up nonsense,
, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru really believed it. Their heads were covered with sweat, they kept nodding, and almost knelt down and kowtowed.
Ma Xiaoquan felt funny in his heart and glanced sideways at Cao Cao beside him. Cao Cao was standing very calmly, tepidly, expressionless, giving people a very scheming feeling.
Ma Xiaoquan said sincerely: This Cao Cao is really extraordinary, no wonder he became a famous figure in history.
In fact, this was just Ma Xiaoquan's unilateral idea. The real Cao Cao was already agitated in his heart.
Recalling what happened these days, Cao Cao felt incredible. First he met a man who claimed to be an immortal at Lord Situ's house, then he met him for the second time at the door of his mansion, and now for the third time at Dong Zhuo's palace.
Meeting this man...all this made Cao Cao have to admit that the man in front of him who claimed to be an immortal was indeed a man of great powers.
Cao Cao thought: If I can really kill Dong Zhuo, will this immortal help me conquer the world?
Thinking of this, Cao Cao saluted Dong Zhuo and Ma Xiaoquan and said: "Taiwei, Lord Shangxian, I see that Lord Taiwei is in good health, so I won't stay any longer..."
Dong Zhuo wanted to say something, but Li Ru pressed his old father-in-law's arm and nodded gently.
Dong Zhuoqian snorted and said: "Well, Meng De, I still hope that you will think carefully and take care of yourself. Then retreat."
Cao Cao lowered his head, glanced at Ma Xiaoquan secretly, then bowed his body and retreated.
...
After leaving the palace, Cao Cao felt very uncomfortable.
Lord Shangxian just made a personal plan for himself. Although it sounds a bit unreliable, it is what Lord Shangxian said, so there must be some reason for it. Furthermore, Lord Shangxian also said that if the assassination was not successful,
If he succeeds, he will find a way to escape from Luoyang City. Fortunately, his father and family are not in Luoyang...
Thinking of this, Cao Cao took a long breath of relief.
When passing the aisle, Cao Cao saw a man in plain clothes from a distance, holding a large bouquet of flowers in a hurry, not knowing where he was going.
"Fengxian? What is he doing?" Cao Cao said to himself, curious, and followed him secretly.
...
It is said that Lu Bu was holding a large bouquet of flowers, not for anything else, but for the little slave girl he was intimate with last night. Although Cao Cao caught her, Lu Bu believed that Cao Cao would never tell anyone...
.. Lu Bu couldn't help but swallowed as he thought about it.
"Xian'er, wait for me..."
Lu Bu sneaked to a fragrant pavilion and knocked on the door gently.
The door opened a crack, and Lu Bu couldn't wait to get in.
"Xian'er, you miss me so much... Come, look, these are the chrysanthemums I picked for you..."
"My slave thanked the general."
"Huh? Why don't you call me a general or a general? Just call me Fengxian. You don't want to be a slave or a slave..."
"Then...Xian'er thanked Fengxian..."
"That's right. Come on, let your Fengxian give you a hug..."
There was a spring scene inside the Xiang Pavilion...and outside the Xiang Pavilion, all this had already been seen by Cao Cao who had broken the window.
Cao Cao was also a lustful person. When he saw Lu Bu and the slave girl going to Wushan together, Cao Cao couldn't help but think of his concubine at home.
No, I can't stand it anymore.
Cao Cao covered his crotch and stood up to leave. However, because he had been squatting for a long time, his center of gravity was unstable when he stood up and he fell backwards.
"Ouch!"
As soon as Cao Cao made a sound, he heard a loud shout in Xiang Pavilion. Before he could react, the door of Xiang Pavilion had been kicked open.
By the time he reacted, someone had already grabbed his collar.
"Mengde? Why is it you again?"
Cao Cao was still in shock. He suppressed his fright and took a closer look.
"Haha, Fengxian... misunderstanding, misunderstanding..." Cao Cao said, trying to pry Lu Bu's hand away.
But Lu Bu's hands were like pliers, gripping his collar tightly and refusing to let go.
"Mengde, did you see or hear anything?"
Cao Cao knew that Lu Bu was warning him by asking him this. If he admitted it, there was a possibility that Lu Bu would crush him to death on the spot. But if he didn't admit it, this would be the second time this happened to him. If he didn't admit it, it would be the second time.
, can Lu Bu believe it?
Cao Cao thought for a moment, rolled his eyes, and said, "Fengxian misunderstood. The captain couldn't find you, so he sent me to find you."
Lu Bu hummed, let go of his hand, and asked, "Then how did you know I was here?"
Cao Cao lied and said: "Fengxian didn't know. Where you are is completely calculated by the Master. The Master is really clever."
"Uh" Lu Bu was startled and speechless.
Cao Cao comforted him: "Don't panic, Mr. Shangxian secretly told me this matter. The Taiwei didn't know about it..."
When Lu Bu heard this, he felt relieved and said, "As for what happened today, Meng De, this..."
Cao Cao said: "Isn't Fengxian thinking about the safety of the Taiwei?"
No matter how stupid Lu Bu was, he could still understand the meaning of Cao Cao's words. He patted Cao Cao on the shoulder and entered the Xiang Pavilion again.
