Original text:
Spring, the first month, ugliness, forgive the world. The discussion of the generals in Guandong: the imperial court was rushed to be young, forced by Dong Zhuo, and it was far away in Guansai. I don't know if it could survive, but Liu Yu, a shepherd in Youzhou, was a German imperial clan and wanted to be the main one.
Cao Cao said, "I'm a soldier, and those who don't respond from far and near will move my career with righteousness." Today's young master is fragile and is burned by a traitor. There is no disaster of Changyi's national subjugation. Once it changes hands, the world will be safe! North of the kings, I am from the west. "
Translation:
Spring, the first month, Xin Chou (the sixth day), Amnesty the world.
The generals of the states and counties in Kanto negotiated against Dong Zhuo, thinking that Xian Di was young, controlled by Dong Zhuo, far away in Chang 'an, separated from Guan Sai, and his life and death were unknown. Liu Yu, a priest in Youzhou, is the most wise man in the imperial clan. He is going to make him emperor.
Cao Cao said: "The reason why our people fought was that people from far and near responded, precisely because our actions were just.
Now the emperor is young and frail, although he is controlled by treacherous court officials, but there is no fault that can lead to national subjugation like Liu He, the king of Changyi. Once it's someone else, who in the world can accept it! You greet Liu Yu in the north, and I respect the emperor in the west. "
Expand the information because Cao Cao said "Kings are North, I am West" and carried it out, and finally defeated the ministers and found the Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty. From then on, he began to rely on the emperor to be a vassal.
The emperor told his ministers

Interpretation: The latter metaphor is actually commanding others according to their own meaning under the banner of leadership.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty became weaker and weaker, and Dong Zhuo abolished the Han Emperor and established the Xian Di. Cao Cao welcomed Xian Di to Xuchang, ordered by Tianzi, and sent a letter to various governors. Liu Bei invited Zhuge Liang to come out to deal with Cao Cao, and Liu Bei used Zhuge Liang's ingenuity to unite with Wu Dong to resist Cao Cao. In Qing Dynasty, Yuan Mei said, "If you don't say anything, Kirin cries injustice": "I ordered the white tiger to carry Qiu Sheng, because I hated him for boasting Sinology, despised a hundred schools of thought, and relied on the emperor to be a vassal, so I intended to vote for the tiger."
