Chapter 488: The Passionate Cao Cao

"Some people say that you are a treacherous hero who holds the emperor hostage to control the princes, while others say that you are a brave and resourceful hero who saves the world.

In short, some people like it and some people hate it. As I have said many times, no one is perfect, and there will always be people who don’t like themselves.”

"You are right, little immortal, but I have a clear conscience. As for other comments, I don't care. I know exactly what I want to do," Cao Cao said. If he was really afraid of what others would say, how could he do something like holding the emperor hostage to control the princes?

He is not afraid of those rumors. As for how future generations will evaluate him, that is their business.

It has no effect on him. No matter whether he is a villain in troubled times or a hero who saves the world, he is still himself, he is Cao Cao.

Li Si and Huo Guang looked at Cao Cao with admiration in their eyes. Not bad, not bad. The fact that he could say such words showed that this Cao Cao was extraordinary.

Many people in the barrage admire Cao Cao very much, and many of them care very much about their reputation, whether it is their reputation during their lifetime or after their death.

It is impossible to be as free and easy as Cao Cao and not care about the evaluation of future generations.

Empress Wu Zetian also had a look of relief on her face. She was the same. She didn't care how others scolded her. Did she think that she would stop doing that if they just said a few harmless words?

Now it is impossible for her to return the kingdom to Li Tang. Her Wu Zhou will get better and better. Who says women are inferior to men? Isn’t she more powerful than men!!!

"It's great that Boss Cao thinks so," Li Wu said sincerely.

How many people have died because of rumors? For example, Cao Cao did something like holding the emperor hostage to control the princes. Many people scolded and opposed him. Didn't he know that people were scolding him?

Of course he knew it, but he didn't care, which showed that he was very strong inside.

Li Wu said that she has a fragile heart and can't stand others scolding her!!!

"Boss Cao, your name is Cao Cao, your courtesy name is Mengde, you are also called Cao Jili, and your nickname is Aman.

I am from Qiao County, Pei State. Boss Cao, you come from a family of officials.

In the "Records of the Three Kingdoms", it is said that Boss Cao is a descendant of Cao Shen, the Prime Minister of the Western Han Dynasty.

Boss Cao, your father, Cao Song, was the adopted son of the eunuch Cao Teng.

Cao Teng served four generations of emperors and was quite prestigious. During the reign of Emperor Huan of Han, he was granted the title of Marquis of Feiting. Later, Cao Song inherited Cao Teng's title.

During the reign of Emperor Ling of Han, he served as the Grand Marshal, the head of the Three Dukes.

So it can be seen that Boss Cao, you come from an extraordinary background."

Many people in front of the sky curtain were surprised. They had never thought that Cao Cao's background was so extraordinary, especially those in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. They all knew Cao Cao and knew that his background was indeed extraordinary, but they did not expect it to be like this. His background was better than that of many of theirs.

"It's okay, it's just average," Cao Cao waved his hand.

"Boss Cao, when you were young, you were not like you are now. When you were young, Boss Cao, you didn't like reading very much and liked to wander around and do good deeds.

You have a warm heart, are unruly, have no moral conduct, and do not study hard. At that time, many people thought that you, Boss Cao, were a playboy, and not many people dared to offend you. However, many people looked down on you and thought that you did not have any special talents.

At that time, you and Yuan Shao, who was a third-generation official, often did evil things in the capital. Ahem, no, you were standing up for justice.

It’s a pity that Boss Cao and Yuan Shao ended up fighting to the death, which is really a pity,” Li Wu sighed. After all, they had to take different paths, and the two good friends who grew up together eventually turned against each other.

Cao Cao fell silent, thinking back to the past. He and Yuan Shao had a very good relationship. They both wanted to serve the Han Dynasty and had many common topics. But why did it become like this later?

Many people in front of the sky curtain couldn’t believe it when they heard that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao used to be good friends. No, they were actually good friends?

Especially many people in the late Eastern Han Dynasty were confused. They really didn't know about this matter. They only knew that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao had a grudge and had been fighting each other. Of course, everyone wanted to seize territory.

"Later, Boss Cao, you were recommended to be an official in Luoyang because of your status as a descendant of an aristocratic family.

Soon after, he was appointed as the Northern Commander of Luoyang.

Luoyang was the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, where many royal relatives and nobles gathered, so it was extremely difficult to govern it.

You can easily meet royal relatives and nobles and offend people.

When you, Boss Cao, arrived, you issued prohibitions, enforced laws and regulations, and made more than ten five-colored sticks, hanging them on both sides of the yamen.

"Anyone who violates the ban will be beaten to death."

At that time, the uncle of Jian Shuo, a eunuch favored by Emperor Ling of Han, violated the ban on traveling at night, but you, Boss Cao, showed no mercy at all. Even if someone pleaded for him, it was of no use.

Just like that, Boss Cao, you had Jian Shuo's uncle beaten to death with a five-colored stick.

Once this incident came out, no one in the capital dared to do it again, for fear of being beaten to death.

And Boss Cao, you have offended many powerful people because of this.

They united to attack you, Boss Cao, and finally you were transferred from Luoyang to Dongqiu to serve as a county magistrate.

At that time, Boss Cao, you were still a passionate young man who cared about the Han people.

You had a dream at that time, which was to become the General of the Western Expedition, and you hoped to change the current situation of the Han Dynasty through your own efforts.

But later on, you experienced more and your ideas changed," Li Wu sighed. Who isn't like that?

When I was young, I was always full of passion, but in the end I ended up with a bloody head.

Cao Cao opened his mouth and said, "General of the Western Expedition, him?"

Yes, he used to want to be the General of the Western Expedition and wanted to change the Han Dynasty. He also used to wholeheartedly care about the Han Dynasty.

Late Eastern Han Dynasty: "I didn't expect that Cao Cao actually wanted to be the General of the Western Expedition. Didn't you see that?" Zhang Fei said with his eyes wide open. He had always disliked Cao Cao. After all, he was their enemy, so how could he like him?

"I didn't expect that Cao Cao was also a chivalrous man when he was young," Liu Bei sighed. Who could have seen that?

"People have many sides, you can't just look at one side," Zhuge Liang said.

"Am I the only one who envy Cao Cao?"

This made everyone look at the person who said he envied Cao Cao.

Not to mention that they were a little envious. Cao Cao came from a family of officials, but he was able to offend so many people and still remain safe and sound, especially those powerful people. Who would dare to offend him?

Cao Cao dared to do this and he is not dead yet. This shows that his family is really powerful, at least stronger than many of them.

The barrage was also discussing Cao Cao. Although many of them knew Cao Cao and thought he was a great hero, they didn't know much about the Cao Cao before him.

After hearing what the immortal said, many people who didn't know Cao Cao would think he was a good person.

Of course, Cao Cao is not a good person, but he is not a bad person either. He just has different standpoints and wants to do different things.

"Forget about the General of the Western Expedition. The Cao Cao today is no longer the Cao Cao of the past," Cao Cao sighed. He could never go back.
