Such a big thing happened in the palace, and of course Cao Cao would know about it first. At that time, Cao Cao was also shocked and quickly sent people. However, by the time he sent people, the matter was already over.
The prince's young master Chen Feng was killed, Xia Houshang and others were bitten by vicious dogs, and Cao Pi was flogged.
Therefore, the people who were sent came back again. Cao Cao began to wait in front of the door, waiting for his son to come back.[
Cao Cao looked at Cao Pi's frustrated look and frowned slightly.
In fact, this son was not the one that Cao Cao valued most. The son that Cao Cao valued most was Cao Ang, but unfortunately, after the Battle of Wancheng, Cao Ang died.
After that, Cao Cao's first wife, Mrs. Ding, also had a disagreement with him because of the death of her son, and the two divorced. Cao Cao later helped Cao Pi's mother, Mrs. Bian, to be a legitimate son. Cao Pi became the legitimate son, and as the eldest son, he had
position today.
But Cao Cao also knew that this was not the place to talk, so he said, "Come in and talk."
"Promise." Cao Pi had always been afraid of Cao Cao, and even more so at this time. He lowered his head and made a promise, got off his horse, and walked in with Cao Cao.
Cao Cao led Cao Pi all the way to the study.
The so-called study room was actually used by Cao Cao to meet with his trusted generals and discuss national affairs. It was very spacious and simple. There was a table.
Several cushions.
After entering the study, Cao Cao went straight to the main seat and sat down, while Cao Pi followed obediently and knelt down on the side seat.
"Tell me what happened." Cao Cao said after sitting down.
"Promise." Cao Pi lowered his head and promised. He began to explain what happened. Every word was factual, and he didn't add any extravagance, because Cao Pi knew that Cao Cao must have eyes and ears in the palace. If he added extravagance, he would only be humiliating himself.
That’s all.
"Um."
Cao Cao listened attentively, then hummed at the end and fell into deep thought.
Cao Cao already knew what Cao Pi said. He just wanted to ask Cao Pi's words to see if there were any discrepancies.
As for this matter, Cao Cao did not intend to delve into it.
Liu Feng's guess was correct. Cao Cao was now at a critical juncture. He was competing with Yuan Shao in the north and could not have internal conflicts. However, the arrogant crown prince suddenly became more serious about this matter, or there was someone behind him.
Instruct.
Cao Cao would have to reserve his opinion.
Cao Cao is not a fool. Of course he would doubt that an eight-year-old would do something like kill the prince and his young master. As for the rest, there is really nothing left.
On the one hand, Cao Cao does not intend to have internal strife with the Liu family at this time. On the other hand, Cao Cao does not have much friendship with Chen Feng, the young prince and young master he lost today, and Chen Feng himself is not on his side.[
Chen Feng has always been a marginal figure.
Although Xia Houshang and others were seriously ill, they were not dead yet. Furthermore, even if they died, Cao Cao would not feel too distressed. Moreover, Cao Cao also believed that the fathers of the bitten princes who abandoned their families were also
If you know the general character, you won't make a fuss at this time.
As for the fact that Cao Pi was injured, Cao Cao didn't even care.
It would be better if he didn't die.
It didn't matter if he was hurt or humiliated. Back then, Cao Cao himself was suppressed and beaten by Yuan Shao, and he almost sent his family to Hebei to gain Yuan Shao's trust.
When Cao Pi arrived, he saw that Cao Cao didn't say anything for a while, but his eyes looked calm, as if he was deep in thought. He looked like he was thinking calmly.
