Can I get to the other side?
Chapter 207 It is my turn to follow the dragon, Emperor Xian of Han deposed the empress
When Dong Cheng heard Fu Wan say that the fake emperor was going to turn the fake into the real one, he was really shocked, but he also suddenly realized it.
He never thought that a mere substitute would have such courage and ambition to replace the real emperor, which was really bold!
At the same time, he also had other thoughts.
"Now my daughter has been taken in by this fake emperor, and Yang Biao and Fu Wan won't take me ashore. It's clear that they want me to be a scapegoat for supporting the fake emperor and become their stepping stone. Now, I have no other choice."
"Although the real emperor in Yecheng is powerful, he has not really been recognized by everyone in the world. There are still people who believe that this fake emperor is real. Cao Cao will not recognize the emperor in Yecheng for his own reputation, and will only support the fake emperor."
"And this fake emperor pretending to be the emperor is just like the real one. I didn't notice it for several years before. He has been patient for so long, and his scheming and scheming are also shocking... He may not be unable to become the real emperor!"
"Yang Biao and Fu Wan both wanted to become his ministers but abandoned me. Now, it's my turn to follow the dragon!"
Dong Cheng's ambition is getting bigger and bigger. He is not a relative of the Han Dynasty, and he has no obsession with the orthodoxy of the emperor's bloodline.
In his opinion, as long as there are enough princes who support the fake emperor, why can't the fake become real?
As long as it is good for him, it's fine!
Suppressing the heat in his heart, Dong Cheng looked at Emperor Xian of Han with a sharp gaze and asked, "Little brother, may I ask what your real name is and how to address you?"
"As long as you and I join forces, I will help you turn the fake into the real, how about it?"
Emperor Xian of Han was so angry that he trembled all over, opened his eyes angrily, and said word by word: "My surname is Liu! My given name is Xie! I am the real emperor!"
"Very good!"
Dong Cheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "It is necessary to maintain this state. Your answer is correct. You will be called this name in the future!"
This sentence made Emperor Xian of Han unbearable. He raised his foot and kicked Dong Cheng's chest fiercely, shouting a word hysterically:
"Get out!!!"
The power of Emperor Xian of Han's kick was surprisingly strong. Dong Cheng was kicked and rolled on the ground for several rounds, grimacing in pain.
He got up from the ground, raised his head and cursed at Emperor Xian of Han: "What's wrong with you, you dog-footed emperor? You really think you are the emperor!"
"Without me, you will be killed by the emperor sooner or later!"
Hearing this, Emperor Xian of Han drew out the emperor's sword from his waist and chopped at Dong Cheng with a ferocious face: "I will chop you, the traitor!"
Dong Cheng was frightened by Emperor Xian of Han's crazy behavior, and ran out of the palace, cursing: "You dog-footed emperor! If you don't join forces with me, you will die!"
After that, he left angrily.
……
Sikong Mansion.
After Cao Cao and Xu You escaped from the palace, they were still in shock. They drank several bowls of wine to calm down before they recovered.
"It's really terrible."
Cao Cao put down the wine jar in his hand and said with a complicated expression: "When I first knew his identity as a fake emperor, I only thought that he had extraordinary acting skills and acted timidly in front of me. At that time, I saw him like a frog in a well looking at the moon in the sky, and I was just surprised."
"Now that I know his true plot, seeing him again is like a mayfly seeing the blue sky. I can only admire and fear him."
"Such a scheming mansion, I, Cao Mengde, am really ashamed of myself. I am still too naive."
Cao Cao rarely admired and feared someone so sincerely. Yuan Shao, who was full of vigor and pointed his sword at Dong Zhuo, was one of them; and Han Xiandi, who was now enduring humiliation and wanted to turn the fake into the real, was also one of them.
This was the first time he met an opponent in the field of forbearance.
Xu You said solemnly: "The fake emperor has a big plot, and even wants to use A Man as a stepping stone. A Man must be more careful in the future, and must not let him find an opportunity to occupy the magpie's nest...eh?"
Xu You stopped talking.
How come it's so familiar?
It seems that His Majesty endured humiliation and secretly won over the forces under Yuan Shao, and finally got rid of the shackles and gained freedom. This fake emperor also has the same plan?
Could he have secretly won over a group of counselors or generals under Cao Cao and had his own power?
Thinking of this, Xu You's fear became even stronger.
"Bold fake emperor! You actually want to imitate Your Majesty. Now that I know your plot, how can I let you succeed?"
Xu You was angry and thought secretly.
He knew clearly how Liu Xie took power step by step under Yuan Shao's hands, relying on forbearance and Yuan Shao's carelessness, and almost killed Yuan Shao in the end!
Although this fake emperor does not have the great talent and strategy of Your Majesty, he is no worse than Your Majesty in forbearance and means, and is definitely a big enemy!
Although Xu You did not finish his words, Cao Cao understood what he meant. He was shocked and began to doubt in his heart-did someone under his command rebel?
Who could it be?
Just as Xu You and Cao Cao were thinking, Xun Yu walked into the hall. They both looked at him, which made Xun Yu frown.
Why are you all staring at me?
Although he was confused, Xun Yu did not ask more questions and said, "Sikong, I heard that His Majesty ordered the Tiger Guards to bring Yang Gong and Fu Wan into the palace today. Does Sikong know what it is for?"
"I don't know." Cao Cao and Xu You said in unison.
Xun Yu glanced at Xu You and frowned even deeper.
He didn't ask Xu You, what did this guy answer? Even Sikong was a little strange today. Were they discussing some private matters and he came at the wrong time?
Thinking of this, Xun Yu said: "Then I will go and inquire about it, and I will leave first."
After that, he turned around and left the lobby.
After he left, Cao Cao and Xu You looked at each other, their eyes twinkling, and they said at the same time: "It's Xun Yu!"
They both realized something.
Although Xun Yu never firmed his stance, he always remained loyal to the emperor in his heart. In the eyes of most people, Xun Yu was a Han official loyal to the emperor.
Under such circumstances, if the pseudo-emperor showed a completely different side from his usual cowardice and took the opportunity to win over Xun Yu, Xun Yu might not be able to surrender!
"Ah Hao, let me tell you that this guy Xun Yu has a bad ass. You can't trust him too much. You have to be careful in the future!"
"Maybe one day when you are leading the troops on an expedition, he will directly rebel and support the false emperor to seize power. Then you will be in danger!"
Xu You said anxiously.
He couldn't let Cao Cao make the same mistake as Yuan Shao by letting this false emperor seize power because of his carelessness. He would never allow this to happen!
Cao Cao's face was gloomy and silent.
In his heart, he didn't believe that Xun Yu would betray him, and it was unlikely that he would be secretly attracted by the false emperor, but he couldn't help but have a suspicion.
After all, only a few people knew the identity of the false emperor, but Xun Yu didn't know. What if he really betrayed him?
After pondering for a long time, Cao Cao nodded slowly and said: "I will be careful about Xun Yu in the future and will never be as careless as Yuan Shao."
"That's good."
Xu You felt relieved. Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, so he would definitely take it to heart after being reminded like this.
He wanted to see what trouble the false emperor could cause!
After talking about this, Xu You also left in a hurry.
He wanted to go to Yang Biao and ask him where he found his substitute. He dared to do such a heinous act without even the slightest consciousness of being a dead soldier.
…
royal palace.
Empress Fu waited in the palace for a long time. Even after dark, she did not wait for Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to come back. She was inevitably worried, so she set off for the announcement room.
However, as soon as she entered the main hall of the Xuanshi, she saw Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty slumped on the ground in disheveled clothes, with an unsheathed sword in his hand, and her expression changed.
"His Majesty!"
Queen Fu quickly stepped forward to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and asked anxiously: "What's going on, Your Majesty? What happened?"
"Could it be that the traitor Cao entered the palace again to persecute Your Majesty?"
The last time Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty drew his sword was when Cao Cao brought his soldiers into the palace, so she would inevitably associate the two things together.
Hearing Queen Fu's words, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty shed two lines of tears, his eyes full of humiliation, and said in a trembling voice: "I summoned Yang Biao and Fu Wan today to ask if they had threatened Zong Zheng."
"As a result, they made a lot of nonsense in front of me, accusing me of being a false emperor. After finishing the ceremony, they even scolded me for planning to turn falsehood into truth, and told me to commit suicide as soon as possible!"
"I don't understand! I don't understand, and I don't even know where I have wronged them. Why do they humiliate me again and again?"
"Queen, why do you think this is?"
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty kept crying and burst into tears.
When Queen Fu heard this, a look of shock and anger suddenly appeared on her delicate and pretty face, and she said in disbelief: "How could my father say such rebellious words?!"
She couldn't believe that Fu Wan could say this.
None of the Dong thieves dared to be so disobedient!
When did his father become like this?
"And Dong Cheng..."
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty choked with sobs and said in a tone full of hatred: "If Yang Biao and Fu Wan were deceived before they said this, I can still understand."
"But Dong Cheng! Dong Cheng is a traitor!"
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty couldn't help but tremble with anger. He gritted his teeth and said: "Not only did he say that I am a false emperor, he also said that he planned to help me turn the false emperor into the real one and let me join forces with him!"
"He is more hateful than Yang Biao and Fu Wan!"
If Dong Cheng only thought that he was a false emperor like Yang Biao and Fu Wan, although he was angry, he would not be so hateful and would just pretend that they were all deceived.
But Dong Cheng planned to help him, the "fake emperor", turn the fake into the real, steal the country, and seek his own glory and wealth!
This is complete betrayal!
Queen Fu was shocked. She finally understood why Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was so angry. This was more than just humiliation. It was completely a traitorous act, which showed that Dong Cheng had no good intentions at all!
"I, the emperor, deserve to be a loser. Cao Cao bullied me, my officials did not believe me, I have lost the country of the Han Dynasty, I have failed the previous emperors of the Han Dynasty, and I wish I could depose myself!"
"I...have no face to face my ancestors!"
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty sadly raised the sharp blade in his hand. The smooth blade reflected his tear-filled and extremely embarrassed face.
Maybe he really should listen to Fu Wan and commit suicide to apologize?
"His Majesty!"
Empress Fu was shocked and without hesitation, she snatched the sharp blade from Emperor Xian of Han's hand and angrily said: "Your Majesty is the Emperor of Han Dynasty and the Supreme Being of Ninety-five Years! Now we are not at the end of the road, how can your Majesty give up so easily?"
"Not at the end of the road yet?"
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty laughed sadly and said: "Yang Biao, Fu Wan, and Dong Cheng don't believe that I am the emperor. Zong Zheng is also greedy for life and afraid of death and dare not rectify my name. But now the people in the court are in panic. Everyone in the world thinks that he can attract Zi Qidong." The false emperor is the real emperor."
"I have reached the end of my rope, Queen."
Empress Fu shook her head and said in a soft but persevering voice: "I have a plan that can help your majesty turn the corner and restore peace to our Han Dynasty!"
Although Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was already desperate, he still had a glimmer of hope after hearing this and asked: "What is the queen's plan?"
Empress Fu said: "Although Dong Cheng is very ambitious, he is not unexploitable. Doesn't he hope that your majesty will turn falsehood into truth? Then your majesty will just follow his wishes."
"Although it is a bit humiliating to do so, we can use his strength to win over all parties for His Majesty."
"It won't be too late to kill him after His Majesty regains power in the future."
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was stunned and quickly understood what Empress Fu meant.
Dong Cheng is indeed a traitor with a rebellious heart, even more so than Dong Zhuo, but such a person can also be used.
As long as he joins forces with Dong Cheng and implements his strategy of "turning falsehood into truth", he will get his full support.
"I am a legitimate emperor, but I want to admit that I am a false emperor. I, I..."
Emperor Xian of Han pursed his lips, feeling extremely humiliated.
He knew that Queen Fu meant no harm and that the plan she proposed was brilliant, but this humiliation made him feel unbearable.
Seeing Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty's expression, Empress Fu advised: "Your Majesty, a man can bend and stretch, so why should he care about temporary gains and losses, honor and disgrace?"
"Back then, the Marquis of Huaiyin, Han Xin, was humiliated by his crotch, and the King of Yue, Gou Jian, tasted feces and complained about illness. These were things that ordinary people couldn't bear, so they finally achieved great success."
After saying that, Empress Fu stood up and took a step back, bowing to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Yingying.
"I ask your majesty to depose the queen and appoint Dong Gui as queen, so as to gain Dong Cheng's trust and let him serve your majesty."
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty never expected that Empress Fu would make such a request, and said in disbelief: "Queen...why is this so?"
He had a deep love with Queen Fu and his wife, and they played harmoniously. Queen Fu always supported him and believed in him. This was something that neither Yang Biao nor Fu Wan could do! !
How could he abandon the queen just to win over Dong Cheng?
Empress Fu said with a gloomy look: "My father has committed such a rebellious act. As a daughter, I really have no shame in taking a lower position."
"Furthermore, Your Majesty also needs to win over Dong Cheng. It is undoubtedly the best way to make Dong your successor. Please grant your Majesty's request for this concubine."
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty opened his mouth, but could not speak.
I just feel so moved in my heart!
"As a woman, the queen is willing to make such a big sacrifice to help me. As the emperor, how can I be inferior to the queen?"
After a period of intense hesitation and struggle, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty finally made a decision.
He must seize this opportunity to make one last push!
Taking a deep breath, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty stretched out his hand to help Empress Fu up, and said firmly: "Queen, don't worry, I will definitely live up to your expectations."
"When I regain power in the future, I will definitely kill the entire Dong family. At that time, I will make you my queen again and give you an honor that no woman in the world can achieve!"
This was Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty's promise to Queen Fu, and even more so to himself!
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Queen Fu smiled sadly and left the hall.
Half an hour later, a eunuch left the palace with the emperor's edict, went to the chariot general's house, and summoned Dong Cheng to the palace to see him.
