After Lu Bu killed by Cao Cao (Prime Minister), Cao Cao took Liu Bei and his brothers to return to the capital. However, Cao Cao did not expect this would change the fate of the Han emperor. Cao Cao never knew that Liu Bei is son of Liu Hong which is the descendant of Prince Jing of Zhongsahn, Liu Sheng. He is same clan with the Emperor. Which means he is Emperor’s Uncle. Liu Bei was awarded with the “General of the Left” and the “Duke of Yi Cheng” by the Emperor.

The hunting season in Xu Tian began with full vigor. Cao Cao always sticks with the Emperor to find out which brave and loyal generals side with the Emperior. On that day, the arrogant Cao Cao embarrassed the Emperor in front of his officers. Therefore, this made the Emperor very angry and thus, he gave a secret edict to kill Cao Cao to his loyal aide, Dong Cheng.

Shortly, all the loyal warriors signed the Emperor decree with their blood, swearing loyalty to the Emperor. One day, Dong Cheng visited Liu Bei’s house. He asked Liu Bei to assist Emperor to kill Cao Cao. Without thinking twice, Liu Bei immediately agreed and signed the Emperor decree.

Upon hearing the news that Yuan Shao killed Gongsun Zan in a battle, Liu Bei was saddened as he lost his best friend. Meanwhile, Liu Bei has decided to leave Cao Cao. With the pretext to prevent the alliance between Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, Liu Bei requested Cao Cao to attack Yuan Shu.Once Cao Cao agrees Liu Bei goes to the Emperor for further approval. The trick of leaving Xu Zhou with the pretense to attack Yuan Shu has managed to trick Cao Cao.

With 50,000 men with him, Liu Bei is like a bird set free from its cage at Xu Zhou. Cao Cao by knowing that it was a trick, he quickly sent his messenger to ask Liu Bei come back to the Capital. However, Liu Bei refused his messenger. This once again forced to start another war.
