Empress Fu conspired with Emperor Xian of Han to get rid of Cao Cao. Summoning the eunuch Mu Shun, Emperor Xiandi had a bleak face and said to Mu Shun: "Cao Thief has ulterior motives and has been plotting to usurp for a long time. The empress wanted to pass on the secret edict, and the abbot of the state summoned Zhongliang and killed Cao Thief. Wangqing's family assists. ”
Mu Shun fell to the ground, his face was sad and indignant, and he sobbed and said, "The minister is grateful for His Majesty's great kindness, how dare he not repay him with death!" Please leave the palace immediately to pass on the edict. Empress Fu then wrote a secret edict and handed it over to Mu Shun to put away.
Mu Shun hid the secret edict in the bun on the top of his head, quietly left the palace, and carefully came all the way to the governor of the fuquan mansion and asked to meet fuquan. Fu Quan retreated with his left and right relatives, and Mu Shun saw that there was no one around, and took out the secret edict and presented it to Fu Quan.
After Fu Finished examining it carefully and confirming that it was Empress Fu's handwritten edict, she said to Mu Shun: "Cao Thief has many confidants, and his henchmen are all over the government and the opposition. Unless Sun Liu qibing was sent away from Cao Thief, and then the loyal warriors were gathered inside, they could wipe out Cao Thief's henchmen in one fell swoop. ”
Mu Shun nodded in agreement, and said, "The abbot may wish to revise the book to ask for a secret edict, send the envoy to Wu Shu, raise an army on an appointment, and join hands inside and outside to fight against the state thieves." Fu immediately wrote a secret letter, and Mu Shun hid the secret book in his head and resigned to the palace.
When Mu Shun walked to the palace gate, he was suddenly stopped by a group of people, and the leader was Cao Cao. It turned out that there were already eyes and ears to report to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao saw Mu Shun leaving the palace late at night, and led the people to wait here.
