Lu Bu is also very satisfied with Cao Ang now.
My virtuous brother Zixiu truly believes in people!
I didn't lie to myself when I said that Dong Zhuo's treatment was good. Look, he was promoted to an official position and given a golden helmet.
How grand!
I'm afraid Dong Zhuo is the only one in the entire Luoyang City who has such ability.
If my dear brother had not introduced me to seek refuge here, I, Lu Bu, a great man, would not even have a serious official position, and would still be living in a private house eating bran-thick vegetables!
Brother Zixiu really showed me a clear path!
This brother is good at getting along, and the good thing is that he really introduces me!
If Cao Ang knew what Lu Bu was thinking, he might not be able to help but say a few words.
It's okay to be a brother, but don't ask me to be a foster father. Our current fragile body cannot withstand such a fatal move of the law of cause and effect.
Of course, Lu Bu was still a little confused.
That is, he was given an official position, this armor and so on, but why didn't he give himself some reward?
It stands to reason that for a new general like me to join him, we can do more than just grant him an official title and make a wish to soothe people's hearts.
There should be something visible!
There is nothing more impactful than a suitcase of money lying open.
Whether it's five baht or some jewelry, even if it's a small box brought to him, Lu Bu will definitely be excited about it.
Because this is real wealth that can be seen and touched, even if you are a captain of cavalry or a lieutenant general, you still have to fish for it.
Wouldn't it be more possible to win over people's hearts and shock people by simply throwing cash in front of them?
Lu Bu didn't understand.
He could only attribute it to Dong Zhuo's negligence.
It doesn't matter when you think about it. You have an official position and face. I heard that you can be granted a title of marquis if you perform meritorious service in the future. This is a grand wish that has never been realized by our ancestors for many generations.
What else do you want a four-wheeler?
Of course, if Lu Bu expressed his doubts, Dong Zhuo would definitely feel wronged.
He gave me the money!
Fifty pounds of gold, that's not a small amount. It's such a big sum of money, what kind of reward do you want?
It's a pity that the two people will never reconcile over this matter. Lu Bu was embarrassed, but Dong Zhuo took it for granted.
Therefore, such a sum of money could only be accepted by Cao Ang silently.
…
At the same time, the Cao family mansion.
Cao Ang was holding a brush and very patiently combing the mane of the red rabbit horse.
To say that this sweaty horse is really extraordinary.
In particular, this Red Rabbit is the best among the sweat-blooded horses. It is the best in terms of appearance, physique, and physical function.
Cao Ang originally had no particular interest in horses.
I wanted it from Dong Zhuo just because the Red Rabbit Horse was so famous that I knew it was a treasure.
As long as it was a treasure, regardless of whether it was useful or not, Cao Ang felt that he had the responsibility to keep it safe for Dong Zhuo.
But now his senses were different.
Look at the muscles all over the red rabbit's body. They are all clearly defined. If it were transformed into a human form, Cao Ang felt that this guy could kick him over.
Looking at the uniform hair and the tall and graceful figure, Cao Ang only found it pleasing to the eye.
I heard that the skin of sweaty BMWs is thinner and the capillaries are more densely distributed. Once running at high speed, the blood vessels will be dilated, causing sweating to look like bleeding.
Cao Ang hasn't tried this yet. After all, the place in his house is too small to use it.
But these magical features alone were enough for Cao Ang to love the red rabbit horse and regard it as a treasure.
While Cao Ang was humming a song and happily taking care of the red rabbit horse.
A maid suddenly jogged up to him.
"Sir, the master is in the front hall and asked you to come over. He said he had something important to discuss."
Cao Ang was stunned.
But after reacting, he quickly put down the brush in his hand, touched the red rabbit's head, and followed the maid to the front hall.
In the hall at this moment.
I saw my father, Cao Cao, getting dressed with the help of his servants. He seemed to be on official business and wanted to go out for a run.
Seeing his son's arrival, Cao Cao first waited for the last wristband to be tied, then ordered his subordinates to exit, and then waved to Cao Ang.
"Son, a big event happened last night. Dong Zhuo rebelled against Ding Yuan's general Lu Bu. This Lu Bu was so greedy that he actually wanted to assassinate Ding Yuan under the cover of night to please Dong Zhuo."
Cao Ang showed his surprise very appropriately. He opened his mouth wide and screamed in disbelief.
"ah?!!"
"Is this the fierce general that I saw standing behind Mr. Ding during the banquet that day?"
"I can't believe that he, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, could be bribed to rebel. It's really unpredictable!"
"By the way, how is Mr. Ding's situation now? Did Lu Bu succeed in his assassination?"
Cao Ang pretended to be presentable.
The confusion and shock when hearing the news, as well as the concern for Ding Yuan, all seemed real.
In any awards ceremony, he would probably be the best actor.
They were all pretending to be so similar, so of course Cao Cao couldn't see anything wrong, so he just sighed and patted his thigh.
"Yes! After all, people's hearts are separated from each other. Who would have expected that a peerless general like Lu Bu would have no integrity at all and would rebel whenever he was told. My father was also a little horrified when he learned the news."
"Fortunately, Ding Yuan noticed Lu Bu's strangeness in advance and placed several soldiers in the camp to protect himself, successfully thwarting Lu Bu's assassination plan."
"Thinking about it now, if Lu Bu really succeeds, all the soldiers under Ding Yuan will probably belong to Dong Zhuo."
"It makes me shudder just thinking about it!"
Cao Ang nodded.
Then he sat down next to Cao Cao and tapped Cao Cao's armor with his knuckles.
"Dad, are you dressed like this because you are going to Ding Yuan's camp to check on the situation?"
Cao Cao hummed.
"Yes, such a big change happened. Ding Yuan lost one of his strong generals, which is equivalent to a sharp reduction in strength."
"In order to prevent Dong Zhuo from taking advantage of this moment to forcefully attack and carry out various plans to defeat them, we must meet in private to discuss the next plan."
"Even if we don't counterattack Dong Zhuo, at least let the several troops stationed outside the city move closer to each other. When the time comes, whichever side is attacked, they can take care of each other."
Cao Ang smiled.
Looking at it this way, my plan is somewhat beneficial to Zheng Fang.
The unexpected success promoted the closer integration of anti-Dong Zhuo forces.
Otherwise, given the complexity of the current forces, some are waiting and watching, some just want to stop Dong Zhuo, and some want to kill Dong Zhuo. Only in the year of the monkey can they unite.
But now everyone has a sense of crisis, fearing that they will become the next target of surgery.
Naturally, they dare not continue to appease.
Having helped both the negative side and the positive side, Cao Ang now couldn't figure out which side he was from.
However, people like me who help both left and right are actually doing it for personal gain.
In the national war mode, maybe he is a careerist?
