Had they gone to Jing Province as he had intended, none of this would have happened. But Emperor Xian of Han's insistence on having his own way had thrown his plans into complete disarray and left them in the worst possible predicament.
Back when they were with Cao Cao, they had at least been free and had troops at their disposal. Now they had nothing and were locked in prison.

Yet in the face of Dong Cheng's fury, Emperor Xian of Han remained expressionless, unmoved, as though he had heard nothing.

"Y-you! What are you doing?"
Dong Cheng paled with fright and struggled desperately, but how could his strength match that of two soldiers? He could only let them do as they pleased.
Emperor Xian of Han, on the other hand, offered no resistance from beginning to end.
