The book is picked up again.

The old man saw that the young patriarch of the Shuzhi branch was silent, and he became even more angry, and asked with hatred: "The old man asked you, why did you want to be killed by Meng De?" Is there anything Meng De is sorry for you?

You are a member of the clan, and according to common sense, there is nothing wrong with Meng De not caring about you.

But Meng De still moved all the people from your branch here, and gave you all the glory and wealth, which can be called benevolence and righteousness!

If you don't want to be grateful, you will take revenge! Human?! ”

"Glory and wealth, hehe......" After hearing these four words, the young patriarch of the Shu Branch, who was still expressionless, laughed nervously, and said while laughing: "He Cao Mengde only gave me some money, not even an official position, how can it be regarded as glory and wealth?!" ”

After saying this, his face became more and more excited, and he glared at Cao Cao and roared loudly: "Cao Mengde, we are also members of the Cao family, why don't you give me an official position?!"

You can use even those untouchables from poor backgrounds, why don't you use me and others from the Cao family?! ”

"......" After Cao Cao heard his words, his brows furrowed tightly, and he asked puzzledly, "Where did you start with this?"

Lonely employment has always been a meritocracy, and if the talent is the same, Lone is more willing to use the people of the Cao family, why didn't he let you wait to be an official? ”

Regarding the words of the young patriarch of the Shu branch, Cao Cao was really puzzled.

If it is possible, he hopes that all the talents under his command are from the Cao family, after all, his family can only rest assured that they can use it.

But after all, the Cao family was originally a small family, so there were not many talents, even if Cao Cao was a little eccentric, there were not many people from the Cao family.

But "not much use" is only relatively similar to the huge official system, for the Cao family, but all those who have the ability have become officials, Cao Cao really can't understand, why are the people of the Shu branch still so dissatisfied?

"Humph! That's a good thing to say! After hearing Cao Cao's words, the young patriarch of the Shu branch pointed at himself and asked with disdain: "You said that you would prefer to use the people of the Cao family?" Then a certain family asks you, why don't you use such and such a family?

Although the wealth of a certain family is not thorough, it is more than enough as the head of a county, right? Why don't you use a certain one?! ”

"Hiss......" Cao Cao gasped when he heard this, rubbed his temples with a headache, and asked with a puzzled face: "You said that you are useless?" But Lone remembers that as early as a year ago, Lone sent you to Xuzhou to serve as the county guard of Taishan County, right? ”

Although Cao Cao has indeed been very busy recently, his head is not confused.

He clearly remembered that he sent the young patriarch to Xuzhou.

Only now did he suddenly react, why is this young patriarch here? It is said that he should serve as the county warden in Taishan County.

"Eh......" After hearing Cao Cao's words, the young patriarch of the Shu branch was immediately stunned.

After a long time, he stammered and pointed to himself and asked, "You... Do you mean that you appointed me as the warden of Taishan County a year ago? ”

"That's right!" Cao Cao also sensed that something was wrong, and after nodding with a serious face, he said seriously: "As you said, although you don't have any great talent, you are still more qualified to serve as the county guard.

So, a year ago, Gu appointed you as the county warden of Taishan County, what? You didn't get a letter of appointment? ”

"No... There is no ......" After hearing Cao Cao's words, the young patriarch of the Shu branch shook his head blankly.

To be honest, he is really stunned now, if he had known that he had been appointed as the county guard of Mount Tai, why would he bother to pick Cao Cao's tiger whiskers?

The reason why he opposed Cao Cao and even assassinated Cao Cao was because he was not angry in his heart!

He thinks that although he is not a great talent, he can still govern one side.

But he waited left and right, but he couldn't wait for Cao Cao's appointment letter, so he thought that Cao Cao intended to suppress their concubines, so he would do something to Cao Cao, otherwise he wouldn't be stupid enough to damage his foundation!

Originally, he was just fighting to the death because he felt that he had no hope in his lineage.

However, now listening to Cao Cao's words, there seems to be some misunderstanding between them, which can scare the young patriarch of the Shu branch!

If it was really Cao Cao who targeted them, then it was reasonable for them to fight to the death.

But now Cao Cao didn't target their concubines, but just assassinated Cao Cao because he misunderstood them, which can't be said!

After thinking about this, the young patriarch of the Shuzhi branch asked Cao Cao with a gloomy face: "Do you have any evidence that you appointed him as the county guard of Taishan County a year ago?" ”

"Of course there are credentials!" Cao Cao nodded without hesitation and said: "I believe many people know that every person appointed by Gu habitually leaves an archive, if you don't believe it, you can go with Gu to take a look." ”

After finishing speaking, Cao Cao planned to turn around and take the young patriarch of the Shu branch towards the place where he had left his archive.

"No need!" The young patriarch of the Shuzhi branch did not doubt Cao Cao, because since Cao Cao dared to take him there, it proved that Cao Cao was worthy in his heart.

Besides, with the official position of the head of a county, Cao Cao doesn't need to deceive people, that is to say, everything is because of his suspicions, which led to today's incident!

After thinking of this, the young patriarch of the Shuzhi branch lowered his head for the first time, and said with a face full of shame: "This matter is all caused by a certain family, I hope Meng De... I hope the lord doesn't bother others! ”

Since he already knew that it was a misunderstanding, the young patriarch of the Shu branch did not plan to involve others, and wanted to bear all the blame, so as to prevent Cao Cao from being angry with the other Shu branches.

"......" Cao Cao heard this, and after being silent for a while, he said: "It's okay for you to let Gu not hold others accountable, but you have to tell Gu honestly, did you really not receive the appointment document at the beginning?" ”

"Hehe......" After hearing Cao Cao's inquiry, the young patriarch of the Shu branch laughed miserably and said: "What is there to hide from this, a certain family really did not receive the appointment document at the beginning, otherwise would a certain family attack you?"

Doesn't a certain family know how important you are to my Cao family?

If you weren't forced to be helpless, how could someone attack you?

At the beginning, a certain family saw that none of the people in my branch had official positions, so they took it for granted that you were targeting the people of my branch!

In despair, a certain family will be attacked by you! ”

"......" After Cao Cao heard the words of the young patriarch of the Shu branch, he raised his head with a calm face, looked at the trembling elder of the Shu branch not far away, and asked, "Don't you have anything to say?" ”

Before the elder of the Shu branch could speak, the young patriarch of the Shu branch took a step forward, bowed deeply to Cao Cao, and said: "Meng De, a certain family knows that a certain family has made a big mistake, but please Meng De for the sake of you and me since childhood, don't blame others, just punish a certain family!"

After all, although they also made mistakes, they were instructed by a certain family, not the mastermind!

Please also ask Meng De for the sake of the Cao family, and only punish the mastermind of a certain family! ”

Cao Cao glanced deeply at the young patriarch of the Shu branch, and then asked calmly: "If Gu told you that Gu had handed over all the appointment documents of the entire Shu branch to this Shu branch elder, would you still intercede for him?" ”

"What ?!!" After hearing Cao Cao's words, the young patriarch of the Shuzhi branch stood up violently and looked at Cao Cao with a face full of disbelief.

After seeing Cao Cao nodded, the young patriarch of the Shu branch turned around suddenly, grabbed the placket of the elder of the Shu branch, and roared with a crazy face: "What Meng De said is true?!!! ”

"Goo-toot!" Elder Shuzhi looked at the crazy face in front of him, didn't dare to lie, and after swallowing a mouthful of saliva nervously, he nodded tremblingly.

"Why?!! Why are you doing this?!! Don't you know that if you do this, you will put my branch in a place of no return?! ”

The young patriarch of the Shu branch is now about to be mad, and if Cao Cao did not reward them with the Shu branch, then their rebellion would be understandable.

But now Cao Cao has rewarded them, but because there is a stupid worm in their concubine, they have not received the reward document.

And they were still kept in the dark, they didn't know anything about it, and in the end they planned to kill Cao Cao, which is a big crime!

Now the young patriarch of the Shuzhi can't wait to strangle the elder of the Shuzhi to death!

However, he still had to figure out one thing before he could strangle him.

"A certain family asked you, why did you hide this? Who the hell did you give those official positions?! ”

"Goo-toot!" After hearing this, the old man of the Shuzhi Zhang nervously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and asked tremblingly: "If the old man confesses honestly, can he get a life?" ”

"Bang!"

"Ah!!h The young patriarch of the Shu branch, who gave the elder of the Shu branch a fist, said with a gloomy face: "The life of a certain family who has been deceived by you is about to die, and you, the mastermind, still want to save your life?" It's just whimsical!

A certain family can only guarantee now that if you confess honestly, a certain family can intercede with Meng De and leave you a whole corpse.

Otherwise, a certain family will definitely cut you with a thousand knives before you die, so that you will die without a place to bury, and you will not be allowed to enter the ancestral grave for eternity!! ”

"That old man won't say anything!" As soon as the elder of the Shuzhi heard that the young patriarch of the Shuzhi did not intend to spare his life, he immediately closed his eyes, looking like a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water.

"If you don't say it, then so-and-so will kill you!!" The young patriarch of the Shuzhi clan hated this elder very much now, so after he heard Elder Zhang's words, he immediately threw him to the ground, and his fists hit Elder Zhang's head like raindrops.

"Bang ......"

"Ahhh!!h

"......" Cao Cao looked at the elder Shuzhi who was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, and was about to choke his breath, and after being silent for a while, he suddenly spoke: "Even if you don't say it, Lone can find out!" ”
