The Three Kingdoms: My Wife is a Great and Good Teacher

A terrifying wolf howl was heard, and the window shattered. The huge white wolf slapped the dagger with one claw and bit towards the darkness.

The man in the darkness turned the dagger around to block the white wolf's claws, but the white wolf's tail still hit the man, and a muffled groan was heard in the darkness.

The next second, the white wolf let out a howl, it turned out that his eye was cut by the broken sword.

At this time, Dong Zhuo also broke free from his restraints, stretched out his hand and a long sword flew into his hand. He stabbed the sword into the darkness in front of the white wolf.

However, the sword hit nothing, and when Dong Zhuo swung the sword again, he found that there was no breath in the darkness.

Dong Zhuo didn't even bother to put on his shoes, and immediately went out the door with a sword in hand. After pushing the door open, she looked around but didn't see anyone.

Instead, he saw a man standing in front of his door.

"Meng De?" Dong Zhuo looked at Cao Cao puzzledly.

Cao Cao was also very nervous and said to Dong Zhuo, "Prime Minister, what happened just now? How could there be such a big commotion?!"

"There was an assassination attempt."

"What?" Cao Cao was surprised, "Who is so bold?"

Dong Zhuo said to the soldiers around him, "Come here! Seal off the mansion and Luoyang! Send Lü Bu, Hua Xiong, Li Ru and others over here. I swear to catch this thief today!"

"Here."

The surrounding guards immediately went to convey Dong Zhuo's angry order in fear.

"Prime Minister, what exactly happened?" At this time, Cao Cao asked Dong Zhuo again.

Dong Zhuo frowned and said, "I don't know the details, but someone suddenly attacked me in the dark while I was sleeping. Fortunately, my White Wolf was resting outside, otherwise I would have been in danger."

"By the way, why are you here?"

"I need to report something to the Prime Minister, but General Lu and the guards said that the Prime Minister had fallen asleep, so I waited outside the door for him to wake up." Cao Cao lowered his head and said, "But I never expected... something like this to happen."

It was normal for Cao Cao to report something to him, but at this time Dong Zhuo obviously had no intention of understanding what she wanted to report to him.

"Guard? Oh, where is the guard at the door?"

Coincidentally, the two guards also came to Dong Zhuo with panic on their faces.

Before the two guards could explain, Dong Zhuo suddenly turned cold and swept his sword, and the heads of the two guards fell to the ground.

Throwing the sword aside, Dong Zhuo said, "Captain of the Cavalry, take the Xiyuan Army to control the officials. I suspect those people are involved in this matter."

"Yes, sir." Cao Cao bowed his head and left quickly.

Starting from the Prime Minister's Mansion, a panic and tension quickly spread throughout Luoyang City.

When most people didn't understand what was going on, Dong Zhuo helped Bai Lang treat her wounds, and Hua Xiong, Lu Bu and others also came to her.

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, Luoyang has been blocked off, and we are trying our best to catch the thieves." The tall and strong black-faced Hua Xiong reported with his head lowered.

Dong Zhuo nodded slightly, then frowned: "Fengxian, you haven't caught up with the murderer yet?"

Lu Bu shook his head and said, "I rode Red Hare around the city and outside the city, but I didn't find any trace of thieves."

"The thief has the wounds I caused, so he should be easy to identify." Dong Zhuo pondered, "In other words, the man should still be in Luoyang City."

"But who on earth could assassinate the Prime Minister right in front of his bed?" Lu Bu asked puzzledly.

At this time, Li Ru on the side suddenly said, "Hua Xiong, where is the Cavalry Captain Cao Cao now?"

"Meng De has followed my orders and has gone to control those ministers." Dong Zhuo said.

Then Dong Zhuo suddenly realized something and asked Li Ru: "Are you doubting her?"

Li Ru bowed his head and clasped his hands, saying respectfully: "It's just a suspicion, my lord, let me tell you."

Li Ru first asked Lu Bu, who was the last to leave Dong Zhuo. Lu Bu said that he had indeed met Cao Cao, and Cao Cao also said that he had something to report to Dong Zhuo.

This was nothing, but then Li Ru asked Dong Zhuo when he last saw Cao Cao, and Dong Zhuo said it was when she went out.

"Cao Cao is a man of extraordinary talent. It took at least five breaths for the lord to leave the door after being stabbed. No matter how much she fears the lord, how can she stay outside the door after hearing such obvious noises of an assassin?" Li Ru asked.

Li Ru's words made Dong Zhuo dazed for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, he also noticed something unusual.

"I remember that when she received my order and left... her steps were slightly staggering."

"I thought she was frightened by my rage, but... she is not the kind of person who would be frightened by the sight of blood."

The more you think about it, the more the results point to only one possibility.

Dong Zhuo's face gradually darkened as he thought that Cao Cao's attentions to him these days were all fake and he was being deceived.

She could no longer control the murderous intent in her heart.

"Lü Bu, go and kill Cao Cao yourself and bring her head back to me!"

-

On the other side, after receiving Dong Zhuo's order, Cao Cao immediately ran out of his mansion.

Then, seeing a horse parked next to the mansion, he walked straight over and pulled away a soldier who was about to mount the horse.

"Wait! The Prime Minister just issued an order..."

Before the man could finish, Cao Cao glared at him angrily: "The Prime Minister also issued an order for me to execute it quickly. Do you want to stop me?!"

When the soldiers heard this, they dared not respond and immediately stepped aside.

After Cao Cao mounted his horse, he immediately raised the reins and then rushed recklessly in front of the crowded prime minister's residence, causing passers-by to dodge.

"Step aside!"

Dong Zhuo's order was to ask Cao Cao to keep an eye on those ministers who opposed her on a daily basis, because if there was an assassination, those people would be the most likely participants.

But Cao Cao would certainly not do so. She was the assassin, so how could she catch herself?

Just take this opportunity to leave Luoyang City immediately.

Cao Cao did not go to any minister's house, but headed towards the city gate of Luoyang City.

If anyone tried to stop her, she would take out the jade pendant on her waist and shout, "I'm here to catch the thief by order of the Grand Master! You are not allowed to stop me!"

During this period, almost all the officials, whether high-ranking or low-ranking, in the capital knew Cao Cao, and they all understood that Cao Cao was the person that Dong Zhuo loved and valued most recently.

So neither the guards patrolling the streets nor the soldiers guarding the city dared to stop them.

And if there was anyone who tried to stop him, Cao Cao would simply draw out his sword and kill them with one strike, giving them no chance at all.

In this way, Cao Cao left Luoyang City, but when she just entered a forest, a huge sense of crisis came from behind her.

Cao Cao abandoned his horse and jumped into the bushes nearby. The next moment, a huge spear with a red tail broke through several large trees and turned the horse and the ten-foot-deep soil under it into nothingness.

Climbing up from the grass, Cao Cao looked at the spear left in the pit and immediately realized who was chasing him.

"Lu Bu."

The next second, a loud horse neighing sound came from the sky, and a red shadow leaped up from a distance, leaping over a large amount of grass and trees, flew over Cao Cao's head, and landed not far in front of him.

A girl with bright red hair and red eyes, wearing a red feather crown and holding a huge halberd, came into Cao Cao's sight.

The horse under her crotch had hair as red as blood, double pupils in its eyes, and a body as strong as an elephant. There was a faint, empty red flame burning the ground on its four hooves.

Divine general, divine weapon and divine horse.

"Cao Cao, you have disappointed the Prime Minister." Lu Bu looked indifferently at Cao Cao who was holding his waist.

Cao Cao's lips turned pale as he looked at the girl in front of him, feeling as if he was facing an evil spirit.

"Lü Fengxian, do you know that you are aiding and abetting the tyrant?!"

"I don't care who is Zhou, I only care about what they can give me." Lu Bu said lightly.

Then, Lu Bu pulled the reins, and Red Hare raised its front legs and jumped up suddenly. She held the Fang Tian Huaji in her hand and smashed it directly at Cao Cao.

Chapter 234 Zhaoqing is my destiny5.2K

The blow was so powerful that the huge red-gold halberd head seemed like a meteor falling from the sky, and it was impossible to stop it.

Cao Cao had already taken action when the Red Hare leaped up, but when the halberd fell, he was still knocked over by the splashing mud and air waves, and crashed into a tree as thick as a bowl.

Ignoring the severe pain in his body, Cao Cao glanced at the big hole on the ground and found that the figures of Lu Bu and Red Hare had disappeared in front of him.

There was no other enemy here except her. Feeling a gust of strong wind coming from behind him, Cao Cao jumped up and jumped onto a tree. The next moment, a halberd smashed a shallow pit on the ground where he was originally.

Lu Bu swung his halberd, sweeping away the smoke and dust, and she looked up at Cao Cao.

"You have good physical skills. No wonder the Prime Minister didn't notice when you were assassinating me."

"But that's all."

After saying that, Lu Bu rode his Red Hare forward again. Red Hare raised its head and charged towards the tree where Cao Cao was. The horse's head directly smashed the trunk of the tree into pieces.

When Cao Cao was about to jump to another tree, Lu Bu raised his Fang Tian Hua Ji and swept it around. In an instant, the surrounding trees fell down.

Cao Cao fell to the ground in a cloud of broken leaves and dust. Facing the girl on the red horse, she frowned and was ready for battle.

Although both are outstanding people, the gap between them is still too big.

Lu Bu was a pure military commander. Even if Cao Cao didn't know what her abilities were, judging from the fact that she helped Dong Zhuo destroy the Jin army, Lu Bu's martial arts might be 50% or even twice as good as those of an average military commander.

Even in his prime, he could not be a match for such a great man, not to mention that he was now injured due to the failed assassination attempt on Dong Zhuo.

"Lu Bu, you have such martial arts skills, why do you want to serve Dong Zhuo?" Cao Cao shouted at Lu Bu, while also looking for Lu Bu's flaws.

"You said you don't care whether someone is 'King Zhou' or not. What would your late father and sister think when they heard this?!"

Lu Bu's expression paused slightly, then he looked at Cao Cao. His life experience was very simple, but he did not expect that Cao Cao had investigated it personally. This should be one of the preparations Cao Cao made for the assassination of Dong Zhuo.

"You have committed a capital crime, and I am only going to execute you and bring you back to report."

"Death penalty?" Cao Cao sneered, "I'm punishing a traitor, what crime have I committed?"

"And Dong Zhuo, who brought disaster to the Han Dynasty, is a villain who deserves to be killed by everyone."

These words were spoken passionately, and were also what most people who were dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo thought in their hearts.

However, this was not the first time Lu Bu had heard such words, and her expression did not change at all.

"A few days ago, when the Prime Minister wanted to depose the emperor, Zhao Zhong said similar words." Lu Bu looked at Cao Cao and suddenly said.

"I heard from Li Ru and Jia Xu that Zhao Zhong was one of the Ten Eunuchs. He did all kinds of evil when he was in power, but he was also able to speak the words of 'justice' that you mentioned."

"So, does this also mean that you are the same as Zhao Zhong?"

Lu Bu held the Fang Tian Hua Ji in one hand and rode his Red Hare slowly towards Cao Cao.

"My father and sister have told me that good and evil are not fixed in the world. The definition of a good person or a bad person depends on what he is doing."

"I didn't quite understand this principle before. I thought that as I gained more experience and came from the desolate Bingzhou to the prosperous Luoyang, I would understand these principles, but now I understand even less."

Lu Bu looked at the red-gold halberd in his right hand and said, "Zhao Zhong died under my halberd to protect the deposed emperor. He was a wicked man and he clearly wanted to be free when he died."

"Jia Xu also told me that the late emperor, who was greedy for pleasure and had no appearance of a 'good person', was a wise ruler for three days before his death."

"In your eyes, Dong Zhuo is a traitor to the country, but in my eyes, after she moved into the capital, she recruited talented people, rebuilt Luoyang, and promised me to help find my sister..."

"It's better to kill the cattle when they are fat." Cao Cao said, looking at Lu Bu seriously, "Dong Zhuo did all this to better control power."

"Since she deposed the emperor, she has already proved that she does not support the Han Dynasty. But this thing she did is enough to make her a traitor."

Lu Bu was silent for a while, then he said: "But the Prime Minister said that everything she did was for the Han Dynasty."

"Like Zhao Zhong, like the late emperor, and like you, Cao Cao."

"You can be loyal and virtuous, but how can you guarantee that you will not be treacherous and incompetent?"

Shaking his head, Lu Bu turned his wrist and carried the Fang Tian Hua Ji on his shoulder.

Luoyang is many times more prosperous than Bingzhou, and is not as barbaric as the bandits that can be seen everywhere in Bingzhou.

However, the ministers and scholars in Luoyang who are dressed in fancy clothes are not as easy to understand as the bandits, and their hearts are even darker than those of the bandits.

Fortunately, Lu Bu knew what he should do. Whether facing the glamorous and cunning Confucian scholar or the insidious and vicious bandits, the Fang Tian Huaji in his hand could tell him the answer.

"So... I only believe in my own judgment. If Dong Zhuo dies, the world will be in chaos, and if you, Cao Cao, die, it's like the death of a bird."

When Cao Cao saw that Lu Bu was not moved by what he said, there was no surprise in his eyes.

Dong Zhuo was indeed very kind to Lu Bu, and as Lu Bu said, he was now just an insignificant "bird".

She sighed and looked towards Luoyang.

"My dream will never come true."
