And Cao Teng adopted Cao Song for carrying on the family offspring. Cao Song who could not be reviewed his source was promoted to the highest military officer and gave birth to Cao Cao. Although Cao Cao was sharp-witted and Machiavellian， the temporal people did not overestimate him because of his images of chivalric vogue， libertine and trifler. Only Qaio Xuan in Liang country and He Yong in Nanyang could realize his talent. Qiaoxuan told Cao Cao：“The world will be out of the order that nobody except those talents with ability of administering the state can save. It may be you！” At the age of 20， Cao Cao was recommended as the post of Xiaolian，then promoted to be magistrate of Dunqiu and later summoned to be consultant. He was promoted to be commandant against the “Yellow scarves rebellion” in Yingchuan towards the end of the Guanghe（A.D.178-184）. Afterwards he was appointed the prime minister of Jinan which includes a dozen counties with lots of corrupt officers adulatory to imperial kinsfolk. Hence， he reported to the throne to dismiss most of officers and prohibited excessive sacrifice. The illegal person were frustrated and the whole prefecture returns into the perfect order.

Empress He was governing the country instead of young crown price and she denied the plan that General He Jin and Yuan Shao intended to murder the eunuchs. As a result， He Jin summoned Dong Zhuo to coerce Empress He but He Jin was killed before Dong Zhuos arrival. Then Dong Zhuo deposed Emperor Shao as King Hongnong and upheld Emperor Xian that caused the turmoil of capital. Dong Zhuo wanted to woo Cao Cao by advising the emperor to promote Cao Cao as Commander of Valiant Cavalry so that Cao Cao changed his name and went eastern back in paths. When he went by Zhongmou County after getting out of Hulao pass， the village constable suspected and arrested him. Someone who knew him interceded with the constable to release him. Having known that Dong Zhuo murders the Empress and King Hongnong， Cao Cao in Chenliu used out property to raise troops for crusading Dong Zhuo.

In February， Dong Zhuo enforced Emperor Xian to move the capital to Changan city while he stationed in Luoyang and set fire to the palace on account of hearing that allied troops would suppress him. At the time， Yuan Shao troop in Henei. Zhang Miao， Liu Dai， Qiao Mao and Yuan Yi stationed in SuanZao， Yuan Shu stationed in NanYang， Kongzhou stationed in YingChuan， Han Fu stationed in Yi city. They were in fear of being advance troops for Dong Zhuos large and strong army. Cao Cao says “Who hesitates shall be lost！ Our armies which have been gathered and prepared are the crusade against rebellions， if Dong Zhuo knows that rebellions revolt in Shandong he will take advantage of the strategic defense strength emerging from LuoYang area by the power of the royal family and send troops east to control the country. ”
