"Why did he torture Dong Cheng?"
Cao Cao's eyes were filled with confusion.
"According to the reports, Second Young Master believes that Dong Cheng was ordered by the Emperor to kill Sikong and eradicate the Cao Family.”
Guo Jia presented the secret silk book to the emperor.
Cao Cao grabbed it.
After taking a closer look, Cao Cao frowned and asked,""Did the Military Intelligence Division monitor what secret edict the Emperor gave Dong Cheng?”
"The spies that the Military Intelligence Division placed in the palace did not report anything.”
Guo Jia shook his head.
Disappointment appeared on Cao Cao's face.
Dong Cheng was the country's uncle and had a respected status. Even if he wanted to punish him, he had to do it properly and could not give others a handle.
However, that kid chose the most reckless method.
It was fine if he was accused of a groundless crime.
He even publicly tortured her!
That was something Dong Zhuo dared to do.
If word got out, wouldn't the world compare him to Dong Zhuo?
"This unfilial son is really a boor!”
Cao Cao cursed and threw the silk book on the ground.
"Dong Cheng is the Son of Heaven's trusted aide, so he naturally has to beat him up to warn the Son of Heaven.”
"However, Second Young Master's method of beating is indeed a little brutal and reckless.”
"In the end, he doesn't have the ability to do anything.”
Guo Jia sighed regretfully.
"This child is indeed short-lived and can't take on a great responsibility!”
Cao Cao sighed and struggled to get down.
"Sikong's injuries haven't recovered yet, how can we move?”
Guo Jia quickly went forward to support him.
"If I don't show myself and take charge of the situation and let that unfilial son do whatever he wants, my reputation will be as bad as Thief Dong's."”
Guo Jia understood Cao Cao's difficulties and could only sigh softly as he helped Cao Cao up.
At this moment.
A spy hurried in and whispered into Guo Jia's ear.
"A decree?"
Guo Jia exclaimed.
Cao Cao saw the change in his expression and asked,""What decree?"
Guo Jia hurriedly cupped his hands and said,
"Sikong Manor just sent back news that Dong Cheng has confessed and found a secret imperial edict in his belt.”
"In the imperial edict, the emperor secretly ordered Dong Cheng to gather the ministers who rebelled against Cao Cao and plot against Sikong, exterminating the entire Cao family!”
Cao Cao's body swayed slightly, and he sat down again.
He had wronged his son.
That little Emperor actually gave Dong Cheng a secret edict to kill him.
Cao Shuo did not accuse Dong Cheng of something he did not do!
"Even your General didn't notice, so how did that Ni…that child know that the Emperor had given Dong Cheng a secret edict?”
Cao Cao looked at Guo Jia in surprise.
Guo Jia was sweating profusely." The Military Intelligence Division overlooked the Emperor. This is my negligence. Please, Sikong-"
"I'm not blaming you for your dereliction of duty!"
Cao Cao interrupted Guo Jia's self-reproach and asked,"
"I'm asking you, how did Shuo 'Er know such a secret?”
"This…"
Guo Jia's self-reproach turned into confusion. He shook his head and said,"
"This Young Master Ziyao's shrewdness is unfathomable, and he does things that don't conform to common sense.”
Cao Cao stroked his thin beard, his eyes gradually turning subtle.
The intelligence that even the Military Commander couldn't detect, but that child could.
Or that child had secretly built an intelligence agency that was even more powerful than the Central Military Division.
Or he could calculate the secret between Tian Zi and Dong Cheng.
No matter which possibility it was, it was enough to prove one thing:
This child was not simple!
"After Dong Cheng confessed, how did he deal with him?”
Cao Cao collected his thoughts and asked.
"Second Young Master has ordered the entire city to search for Dong Cheng's accomplices.”
"He has already led his troops into the palace to meet the emperor.”
Cao Cao nodded slightly and said hatefully," These ungrateful people should all be imprisoned. Shuo 'er handled them well!"”
Back then, Liu Xie brought Dong Cheng and a group of officials back to the east. They were homeless all the way and were generally not welcomed by the various dukes. They ate one meal and did not have the next meal.
If it wasn't for him, the Emperor and the officials would have starved to death long ago.
Now that his good days had passed for a long time, they were burning the bridge after crossing the river and ganging up to murder him. It was really extremely detestable.
If he didn't kill a batch, how could he appease the hatred in his heart?
"Sikong, Dong Cheng and his people really should be killed.”
"I'm just worried that if Second Young Master kills Tian Zi in a moment of recklessness, it won't end well.”
Guo Jia reminded in a low voice.
Cao Cao shivered.
The little Emperor indeed needed to be taught a lesson, but he absolutely couldn't kill her.
If he killed the little Emperor, he would no longer be a powerful official who held the Son of Heaven in his hands, but a traitor who was attacked by the whole world.
Naturally, Cao Pi did not have the guts to kill the emperor.
It was hard to say for Cao Shuo. After all, this child was unfathomable and could do anything.
"Quickly take my order and go to the palace to monitor.”
"If Shuo 'Er really has the intention to kill the king, immediately stop him!”
Cao Cao immediately made arrangements.
"Yes!"
Guo Jia took Cao Cao's order and hurriedly left.
The Imperial Palace, the Golden Hall.
Liu Xie was sipping the imperial wine happily.
"As long as I can take back my power, I will definitely be like Emperor Guangwu, reviving the Great Han Dynasty and becoming an eternal emperor that everyone respects…"
Liu Xie muttered to himself, fantasizing about the brilliant blueprint.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"The overall situation is still uncertain. Now is not the time to be complacent. Your Majesty should still be calm.”
Empress Fu Shou advised.
Liu Xie looked displeased.
Beside him, Fu Baolang Zu Bi said,"
"Cao Cao is dead, and his sons are all children who can't take on great responsibilities.”
"The overall situation has been decided, the Empress need not worry too much.”
Fu Shou was silent.
Liu Xie sneered.
At this moment.
The eunuchs and palace maids who were serving in the hall scrambled into the hall.
Troops of white-robed soldiers charged in with swords in their hands and surrounded the golden palace.
Cao Shuo, who was wearing golden armor, entered the hall under the protection of Yan Yun's 18 cavalry.
Ascending the jade steps, he stood in front of Liu Xie.
A sudden change!
Liu Xie looked at the unfamiliar young man who was rushing towards him. He was actually trembling with fear and didn't know what to do.
"Who are you? How dare you barge into the golden hall!”
Zu Bi stepped forward and pointed at Cao Shuo.
Killing intent surged in Cao Shuo's eyes.
"Swoosh!"
The sword was unsheathed and blood flashed.
Zu Bi's head fell to the ground.
