As soon as he heard that there was a will, Cui Yan's heart was moved, he knew that the emperor had been looking for trouble with Cao Zhi recently, and he also understood that the power of the imperial court seemed to be turbulent, plus the Ma Teng incident that happened before today, he had a faint feeling.

It's not good, this time the emperor will take the opportunity to give Cao Zhi another knife!

But the holy decree has already arrived at the door, and as a minister, there is no reason not to accept the decree, so it is worth enduring his anger, and he said to Cao Zhi: "Zijian, let's go, the holy decree is here." ”

"The Divine Decree is coming...... What does it have to do with me? Cao Zhi still sat there, not even moving his buttocks: "Father-in-law wants to go by yourself, I won't go anyway, didn't he say that he wanted me to self-reflect at home?" Well, I'm here to reflect and remain motionless, if you want me to listen to the Divine Decree. The good one is to call the proclamation officer here, and I'm here to listen! ”

"You bastard!"

Cui Yan understood his character, so he had to sigh helplessly, and then hurriedly greeted him with a few subordinates, and tidied up his official uniform and hat while walking.

Coming to the door of the mansion, Cui Yan was stunned again, because the person who came to deliver the decree today was not a eunuch, but Zhang Sicheng, one of the chief guards of the inner palace and also from the school office.

As soon as Zhang Sicheng saw Cui Yan come out, he immediately greeted him: "The next official greets Cui Shangshu!" ”

"Well, it doesn't have to be that way to get up." Cui Yan pulled him and said, "Today, Jiang Zuo is an angel who preaches the decree, but I don't dare to do this." ”

"Alas, although you are here to deliver the message, are you still our foreign host!" Zhang Sicheng is deliberately setting up a relationship with Cui Yan.

The school office is an intelligence and secret service agency controlled by Cao Cao, although it is maintained by the imperial court's finances, but in the final analysis, it is Cao Cao's private team.

And Cui Yan is Cao Cao's in-laws, so it is not too much for him to say that he is a "foreign owner", but the meaning of clinging is very obvious.

Of course, Cui Yan knew what he meant, so he didn't say anything more but smiled, and then Zhang Sicheng felt that he had touched a soft nail and stopped talking nonsense, and dragged the holy decree from the hands of others and slowly unfolded.

"Mukden...... Alas, Lord Cui Shangshu, what about the third son? Why didn't he come? ”

"This ......"

Hearing him ask, Cui Yan hesitated and still said what Cao Zhi meant, but it was not the original words.

Originally, Cui Yan thought that Zhang Sicheng would definitely express some dissatisfaction with this, but he didn't want him to be like this, but said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then the lower official will go in and pass on the decree, Master Cui Shangshu, I won't tell you that this holy decree is actually prepared for the third prince." He wasn't there, and it didn't make sense for the lower officials to read it out. ”

"Well said, well said."

Cui Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and led them to the backyard, of course Cao Zhi was still watching the show, and if he looked carefully, he would find that there was another ring missing on his hand.

Cao Zhi actually heard the movement and knew that they were coming, but he deliberately didn't get up, pretending not to know anything, looking at the stage intently, and imitating the appearance of Youling on the stage intentionally or unintentionally.

"This ......"

Cui Yan just wanted to open his mouth to call him, but Zhang Sicheng on the side shook his head and walked up briskly: "Xiaguan Zhang Sicheng, meet the third son!" ”

It is said that although Zhang Sicheng is in the palace, he is from the school government, and Cao Zhi has been managing the school government before, so it is not an exaggeration for him to come up and bow to one.

It's just that he himself is subordinate to Cao Pi, and he didn't have a good relationship with Cao Zhi before, so it can be seen that all this is a face-saving project that he deliberately did at the moment.

Cao Zhi just wanted to suppress the emperor's arrogance today, of course, when he knew that the edict was Zhang Sicheng, he also intended to clean him up, so he didn't make a sound.

This kid is too much!

Cui Yan was helpless in his heart, but Zhang Sicheng became a good temper today, and when he saw that he didn't speak, he asked again.

Cao Zhi pretended to be stunned, sat there and rolled his eyes at him: "Hey, isn't this General Zhang?" Why did you have time to get here today? You are in office in the palace...... Could it be that the emperor wants you to arrest me? ”

"The third prince laughed, how could it be!"

was splashed by his sneering words for a while, Zhang Sicheng felt very uncomfortable in his heart, but he was still laughing, after all, he received a death order today, and he must let Cao Zhi serve the edict.

The emperor made it very clear before he came, if Cao Zhi was edicted today, then he would be rewarded with golden sands after he went back, and if Cao Zhi resisted the decree or did not accept the decree, then the emperor would beat him after he returned.

Zhang Sicheng kept these words in his heart, so he could only choose to be patient at this moment: "Third prince, Your Majesty doesn't know what the lower officials mean, but they really know, we won't use the strong, right?" ”

"I don't dare."

Cao Zhi glanced at him, then stood up, waved his hand to silence Youling on the stage, and said to Zhang Sicheng: "You write and read it quickly, don't you see that there is something important on my side?" ”

"Yes."

Zhang Sicheng hurriedly stood up straight, unfolded the holy decree and read it out: "Fengtian carries the emperor, and the edict of the emperor of the Han Dynasty says...... Third son, you just listen to that? ”

Looking at Cao Zhi standing upright in front of him, Zhang Sicheng was very embarrassed, but Cao Zhi didn't care: "Yes, just listen to me just now for too long, my knees are numb, no?" ”

"This ......"

"Zijian!"

Cui Yan, who had not spoken, finally couldn't help it, Cao Zhi was simply looking for death by doing this, the emperor was looking for trouble with you, but you just put on such a look, giving people a handle, if you get serious, just one big disrespect is enough for you to drink a pot!

This child, not worry-free!

Cui Yan sighed in his heart, walked up quickly, and persuaded Cao Zhi in his ear: "Zijian, you can't play with children's sex, this is a holy decree!" On your knees! ”

"Father-in-law, my legs are really numb and I can't kneel, what do you say? Or let Zhang Sicheng cut me with a knife, what do you say? ”

"You!"

Cui Yan didn't expect Cao Zhi to play this set of things in front of him, with a heart full of fire, he quietly glanced at Zhang Sicheng, who was full of embarrassment, and then at Cao Zhi, who had a stinky fart and bad intentions, and after weighing, he actually kicked Cao Zhi's knee socket directly.

The sharp pain and impact made Cao Zhi lose his balance at once, and he knelt on the ground with a bang, and just when he wanted to struggle, Cui Yan also took the initiative to kneel.

Because of his relationship as a father-in-law, if Cao Zhi stands up at this moment, he will be guilty of unfilial piety, in case Cao Cao knows, he will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.

So although he was reluctant in his heart, Cao Zhi could only kneel on the spot!

That's great.

Seeing this, Zhang Sicheng did not delay, opened the holy decree for the second time, and read it on the spot: "Fengtian carries the emperor, the edict of the emperor of the Han Dynasty said: The third prince of the Cao family, Zhi, has a stubborn personality, has made mistakes before, and I ordered him to wake up, but he turned a deaf ear, and during the period of self-examination, he openly copied the affairs of the court, which is really hateful, so he was removed from all his positions, handed over to Cui Yan for strict care, and was not allowed to leave the Cui Mansion without permission. ”

No way!

After listening to the content of the holy decree, Cao Zhi almost jumped up directly from the ground, and his eyes were glaring at that time, but just as he was about to have a seizure, a voice suddenly sounded.

"Is this a holy decree? I don't think this decree is written at a high level, and it is not smooth, so it is better not to obey the edict, so as not to be ridiculed if it is sent out in the future! “
