Chapter 1647 (1/2)
”Liu Bei, thank you for sitting!” Liu Bei ignored Zhang Fei's mutter, but instead gave Yuan Shao a fist and sat down calmly.
”Everyone!” At this time, Cao Cao got up from his seat and said loudly, ”Although we have gathered together to fight thieves, we have become unknown, why? Because we are missing an edict to the emperor... If we don't have an edict to the emperor, we don't Have we become rioters? Aren't we just as innocent as Dong Zhuo?”
”But the emperor is in the hands of Dong thief and cannot give us this edict!” Yuan Shao said helplessly.
Hearing Yuan Shao's words, Cao Cao smiled slightly and said, ”Before I left Luoyang... the emperor personally granted me a secret edict... called the heroes of the world to join King Qin.”
All the princes were stunned when they heard the words, and then all of them showed joy...With the edict, they became famous, and with the edict, they were upright rebels...How can this not make them happy... …
However, the little Lolita sitting behind Zhou Ye said hesitantly: ”No, I heard that the emperor was young and he was detained by the Dong thief, so I couldn't see outsiders at all. How did you get this edict??”
Although Yueying's little Lolita's voice was not loud, it spread to the ears of many princes.
Hearing Lori's reminder, the princes suddenly woke up...
”Yes, Dong Thief detained the emperor, how did Cao Cao see the emperor?”
”That's right, and I heard that Tianzi was still a baby. Where did he come from so resourceful, to send this edict?”
Hearing the comments of the princes, Cao Cao did not show any panic on his face.
Should I say that this guy has a thick skin?Should I say that this stuff is shameless?
He actually admitted it in such a big way... ”Yes, this edict was indeed written for the emperor!”
”Ah...”
”Meng De is so courageous!”
”Hahaha... it really is Meng De's style!”
”It's worthy of being a competent minister in the world, a man of troubled times!”
Hearing what Cao Cao said, the princes burst into laughter...
To say how much they value the emperor is nonsense...
In this alliance, the idea of profiting for oneself is more than that of raising troops.
In fact, anyone with a little bit of knowledge knows that the power of the Dahan River is exhausted... it can't be saved. Before the troubled time is about to come, under the sign of King Qin, you can make some benefits for yourself.
If there is a chance, the princes who are sitting don't mind to sit in the position of the Ninth-Five Lord.
Therefore, all the princes just laughed at Cao Cao's false imperial order. As a joke, no one would say anything... let alone blame Cao Cao.
You know, when the Han Dynasty was prospering, it was the crimes of the three tribes who dared to pretend to be pretentious.
And now, everyone listened to it and laughed, and it was over... One can imagine how far the authority of the Han court has fallen.

Chapter Two Thousand and Thirty Five
Cao Cao looked at the smiles on the faces of the princes, and said dismissively: ”Although the edict in my hand is a corrective edict drawn up by me for the emperor, but-in this edict, which one is not the emperor? Want to say, but can't say it?”
Having said this, Cao Cao looked around the princes and said: ”Since Dong Thief can hold the emperor to make the world, why can't we act in the name of the emperor?”
”Meng De said well...”
