As soon as he asked for complaints, Cao Zhi, who was already smug, suddenly became depressed as Cao Ang was deceived. Cao Zhi had always been strict with these younger generations. After Cao Cao passed away, Cao Zhi even took Cao Pi, Cao Zhi and other nephews back to his mansion to raise and teach. They were not released until they were old enough to have independent doors and trained them. Therefore, Cao Zhi, who was casual by nature, was always a little afraid of his strict uncle.
"Yes, tell my father, let him punish Zhi..." Finally, with the help of his sister, Cao Ang, who found the steps, pushed Cao Zhi away, patted the dust in his palm, ignored Cao Zhi, and walked away halfway.
"Oh, Sister Yingshuang, I didn't say anything, I just chewed a few casual words of homely, is it homely? Don't be angry, Brother Ang..."
"Who is gossiping?"
Just as Cao Zhi changed his expression and began to beg for mercy at Cao Yingshuang, a tall figure walking squarely appeared at the end of the corridor.
When Cao Zhi heard that it was his own brother Cao Pi's voice, his expression immediately turned to joy and turned to greet Cao Pi who was slowly approaching him.
"Brother, save me quickly. Sister Yingshuang and Brother Ang are going to sue me in front of my uncle. Please help me persuade me..."
Cao Zhi begged to his elder brother, but he only laughed from Cao Pi, "Uncle is still in Zhongmu. They have to wait for a few days to complain. Why are you anxious?"
Cao Pi thought he could control the situation, but Cao Yingshuang suddenly said innocence, "My father is coming back soon, maybe it's today, otherwise Uncle Xu wouldn't have asked us to wait at home today..."
"What?"
Cao Pi's heart skipped a beat for no reason. He never knew that it was Cao Zhi's message to send the young men to the mansion today.
"What is he going to do? Was he targeting me? Has he noticed my plan?"
Cao Pi's face suddenly changed and his heart flashed with many possibilities, but he quickly denied it one by one: "It should be impossible. I acted meticulously and had never left any handle. The people I had contact with are almost dead now, and it was confirmed that these people had no chance to betray him before they died. The only person who could betray him was Xun Yu, but this person had just arrived in Zhongmu under the surveillance of his confidants to accept Cao Zhi's trial. Even if he had betrayed me now, he would not have received Cao Zhi's reaction so soon. But he could not betray me, even if he was
Even if he betrayed Cao Zhi, he would not believe what he said, because he could not provide any evidence. The secret order left by his father had long been burned by Xun Yu. All of this was placed in the Xun Mansion. In this way, Xun Yu had no evidence and could not pose any threat to me. Besides, Cao Zhi and Xun Yu may have become the ghosts under the sword he sent to the assassin... or if the assassination failed, it would not have been possible to know so quickly that I did it, and suddenly return... But why did his confidant Xu Chu Chu summoned the juniors of his family to gather in his mansion?"
After all, Cao Pi is still young and is not mature and sophisticated enough. He will inevitably feel a little panicked whenever he encounters changes.
When Cao Pi was worried about gains and losses, he secretly decided that he could not think like this, and he should ask the whole story of this matter clearly." Cao Pi, who suddenly came to his senses, was about to ask Cao Ang and others, and found that the brother and sister had already left with Cao Pi when he heard that Cao Zhi might be able to come back and lose his mind.
"Brother, brother, what's wrong with you? What's wrong?" Cao Zhi, who thought he had found a helper, kept shaking Cao Pi's arm and shouting several times before awakening Cao Pi.
Cao Zhi was full of unwillingness to the ridicule of Cao Yingshuang and others when he left all the way, and was even more puzzled by Cao Pi's disastrous middle-of-the-stop.
Anyway, Cao Zhi, who was full of poetry and literary feelings, could no longer understand his brother's behavior. Today, he was just adding it again, so what can he do?
"well!"
Just as Cao Zhi sighed helplessly, Cao Pi, who suddenly awakened, grabbed Cao Zhi's hand and asked Cao Zhi to explain what happened today.
"Cao Zhi, tell me quickly, what did you say about the convening today?"
Regarding Cao Pi's urgent question, Cao Zhi could only discuss it again, and then told Cao Pi about the arguments and talks with Cao Ang and others just now. He even added some of his own comments and shoulds.
But obviously, after a moment of relief, Cao Pi seemed to be worried about something, quickly turned around and left.
Cao Zhi called Cao Pi several times behind him, but he ignored him. When asked where to go and what to do if you summon your aunts, Cao Pi just kept rushing to the road, but didn't look back and answer Cao Zhi's question. In the end, Cao Zhi could only shake his head in a daze, and then he regained his leisurely temperament, turned around and walked slowly towards Cao Pi in the opposite direction.
The autumn is the most beautiful moment of the year. Along the sides of Xicheng Street, the leaves of maple trees slowly turn from green to yellow, and then turn from yellow to red. Finally, the dazzling red suddenly jumped in dusk, adding a thin layer of gilding to the edges. The whole city immediately became magnificent, as if it was covered in clouds, like a dream.
This moment of every year is also the most lively moment in the city. After experiencing the hardships of spring and the hardships of summer, people finally look forward to the harvest season. Seeing that the fields, trees, and the livelihoods in the shops have turned into heavy copper, white silver, shiny gold and warm silk, the nerves that have been tense for more than half a year have quickly relaxed. Take a long breath, put on the most decent clothes, bring the most beautiful crowns, go out to climb the mountain, and visit friends from alleys to visit friends. Those who should fulfill their promise in spring invite a matchmaker, carrying fresh fruits and vegetables from outside the city, the light gauze from Wu Yue, and a pair of white jade from outside the region, climbing the door of the old man from Mount Tai, begging for his daughter with his kind words.
Although it was almost evening, the western market was still crowded.
Suddenly, a rapid sound of horse hooves broke the noise and the pleasant scenery. A noble carriage wrapped in a copper cabin suddenly rushed into Xishikou, which was mostly for civilians.
Hearing the rushing sound of horse hooves, the people knew that this might be the wealthy young man who was always showing off his might. He was lucky that they were in this kind of civilian land and had nothing to do. The people dared not provoke the nobles who could ride in such a carriage. They quickly pushed and shoved each other to the side of the road and made a way for the evil young men.
This is the car that drove Cao Pi out of Cao Zhi's mansion. On weekdays, he led his entourage to the contact point hidden in the West City. He has always been equipped with light cars.
Today, he had a bad premonition. He had no time to change clothes and cars after leaving Cao's mansion. He rushed from Cao's mansion to the secret contact point in the West City to mobilize his intelligence network. He had to know all the troubles inside and outside Xu's capital during this period.
The street that had just rained the day before yesterday still had a lot of mud and water that had not yet evaporated. When the horse's hooves were stepped on, the mortar splashed all over the faces of passers-by. The people looked at the backs that were gone, and they cursed endlessly. However, the galloping people pretended that nothing had been heard and continued to walk along the way.
When Cao Pi rushed all the way to the door of his house hidden in the downtown Zhongfu, he felt a breath of death, a strange atmosphere and smell. When Cao Pi couldn't tell the difference and stepped into the intact gatehouse, Cao Pi was stunned to see the ruined veil inside, and then there were corpses that were stabbed like hedgehogs or inhumane shapes. There was one every few steps, and the more they went in, the more they went in.
Cao Pi recognized the dead men who were his close confidants in the mansion. There were at least one hundred people in this mansion, but now they were obviously corpses.
The corpses in the room and the blood on the ground were all over the ground. The more they walked back, the more shocking he was, and he didn't even leave. Cao Pi's stomach twitched even more because of his anger and fear. He was about to vomit, but in front of the zodiac, even if his face turned white, he insisted on warning himself to hold it back.
"not good!"
When he realized that the market was still as usual outside, his secret strongholds were all massacred. This situation was definitely an inconsistent and abnormal category, Cao Pi shouted out in a daze.
"Walk!"
Cao Pi, who immediately felt that something was wrong, was also considered a general, and he immediately made a decision to withdraw immediately.
But when he walked out of this secret stronghold surrounded by his followers, he was immediately shocked by the murderous aura of the surrounding vendors and pawns.
"Carang!Carang!"
Cao Pi's subordinates were also powerful martial arts. They had already noticed the murderous aura that Cao Pi could feel. It was because it was not enough to distinguish just now. At this time, Cao Pi and his guards only felt that these seemingly ordinary vendors and civilians shot at them at will, as sharp as a knife, and could pierce their skin with a light sweep. They were loaded with cargo, and even their wide sleeves and trousers seemed to have a cold and murderous weapon pierced at any time and anywhere.
Cao Pi and others have just now suddenly realized that the neighbors around the strongholds they deliberately operated and learned about have changed their faces, and even the hidden merchants and vendors they placed outside have long disappeared.
"Lord, please get in the car and leave first. We will cut off the back!" The guards beside Cao Pi took out their weapons and surrounded Cao Pi in the middle and rushed toward the frame.
Several swords were unsheathed, murderous people were so independent among a crowded crowd of people who were full of hawking, bargaining, quarreling, and chatting.
This scene is so inconsistent, the peddlers and pawns are so normal, and the guards who are facing a great enemy are so incompatible with Cao Pi.
