The book is picked up again.

"The old slave is saved, and he will never cause trouble to his master." The butler replied respectfully, and then walked out of the hall with the servant.

After the slaves had completely withdrawn from the hall, the hall was finally empty.

Then, I heard Cao Song, who had been silent, say: "Except for Meng De and Xingzhixian's nephew and the elder of Shuzhi, everyone else should go to the back hall to stay, this matter is not over, you can't come out." ”

Although Cao Song has never been in charge of things, as if there is no such person, as Cao Cao's father, his prestige is still quite high.

Therefore, after hearing his words, everyone did not dare to disobey, and saluted Cao Song one after another, and said in unison: "We will obey the old lady's orders." ”

With that, they slowly retreated.

After a while, Li Zhi, Cao Cao, Cao Song, and the elder of the Shuzhi who was paralyzed on the ground were left in the entire hall.

At this time, Cao Song squinted his eyes and looked at the elder of the Shuzhi who was paralyzed on the ground, and said to Cao Cao: "Meng De, can you hand over this elder of the Shuzhi to be dealt with by his father?" ”

"This ......" Cao Cao thought that Cao Song was going to open up to the elders of the Shu Branch, so he was full of embarrassment.

On the one hand, he didn't want to refute his father's face, and on the other hand, he didn't want to let go of this elder of the Shuzhi branch.

After all, what Elder Shuzhi did was too appalling, and it was really difficult to convince the public if he didn't deal with him.

At this moment, Li Zhi quietly came behind Cao Cao, poked his back gently, and whispered: "Brother Meng De, Mrs. Cao is not the kind of person who abolishes the public for personal reasons, and this is Brother Meng De's family matter, and it is most appropriate to hand it over to his old man." ”

"......" Cao Cao heard this, and after being silent for a while, he nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then this person will be handed over to my father." ”

"Hmm" After the old lady Cao nodded slightly, she turned around, looked at the elder of the Shuzhi with an expressionless face and said: "You and I are the same generation according to the generation, but according to the year, you are older than the old man, so the old man has to call you a big brother."

Eldest brother, younger brother has also heard of your prestige, when I was young, you could be regarded as a man of the year in my Cao family.

But why do you do such foolish things in old age? ”

"......" After hearing Old Lady Cao's words, the elder of the Shu Branch, who was still trembling, suddenly stopped trembling, as if he had regained the heroism of his youth.

He slowly stood up and patted the dirt on his body, then closed his eyes, looked up, and thought deeply.

After a long time, he suddenly opened his eyes, let out a long sigh, and said with a bitter face: "Yes, the old man doesn't know why the old man would do such a foolish thing, maybe this is the so-called lust for profit!" ”

Speaking of this, he turned around and stared at Mrs. Cao seriously, and said calmly: "The head of the family, the old man also knows that the old man has committed a mistake, even if it is a thousand cuts, it is not too much!"

So the old man doesn't struggle, and there is no difference between killing and killing the old man.

I only hope that the head of the family can let the old man bear all the sins, and not be angry with the old man's people. ”

"Meng De......" After hearing the words of the elder of the Shu branch, the old lady Cao turned her gaze to Cao Cao.

He can dispose of the elders of the Shu Branch, but he can't dispose of the entire Shu Branch.

It's not that he doesn't have this

but he didn't want to embarrass his son.

After all, if he crosses Cao Cao and disposes of the Shu branch, then others will subconsciously think that his power exceeds Cao's,.

In this way, it will inevitably have an impact on Cao Cao's rule!

Therefore, to deal with the affairs of the Shu branch, he must obtain Cao Cao's consent.

After Cao Cao saw Old Lady Cao's gaze, he thought for a while, then nodded, and said: "Whoever makes a mistake will be punished, and a certain family has not yet been stupid to anger others. ”

"That's good" Mrs. Cao nodded with satisfaction, then took out a porcelain vase from her cuff, handed it to Zhang Lao, and said, "Now you should be relieved, right?" Come, let the little brother give you one last ride. ”

"......" After hearing the words of the old lady Cao, the elder of the Shu branch was silent for a while, suddenly smiled, and took the porcelain bottle in the old lady's hand without hesitation, and after opening it, he immediately poured it down with his neck up.

Then, he gently put the porcelain vase on the table next to him, and said with a smile: "The old man's life has been bitter and sweet, and the old man has tasted all the tastes of life one by one."

When I was about to come, I also tasted the taste of power, which was worth it.

If it is over, a whole corpse can be left, and the old man has nothing to regret. ”

Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Cao Cao, and said with relief: "Meng De, the old man was confused before, you must not take it to heart."

And also... Well! ”

When he said this, the poison of the elder of the Shu branch was broken, he forcibly endured it, and after swallowing the blood that was about to spit out, he said weakly: "There is still ...... If a person who is a member of the branch makes a mistake, you... You can do what you want, 10 million... Don't let them go because of the old man!

You... You are the only hope for my Cao family, and you are also me... My Cao family... Cao Family... Target... The future, well... Okay... Walk... Go down. Well! ”

After talking intermittently for a while, Elder Shuzhi seemed to be returning to the light, his face turned red, and his speech speed became faster, and he said: "Meng De, after you dominate the world, don't forget to tell the old man about this!"

At that time, even the old man will cheer for you and bless you under the Nine Springs! ”

Then, he turned his gaze to Li Zhi and said, "Luoyang Hou, the old man wants to thank you,

If it weren't for you, Meng De's road to world domination would not have gone so smoothly, and my Cao family would not have the glory it has now.

You and Meng De must have known Meng De's character for a long time, although he is suspicious, but for you, a friend, he has never doubted it.

So, old man... The old man wants you to wait... Can you wait to be able to join hands... Carry ......"

"Bang!" Before Elder Shuzhi finished speaking, a stream of black blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and then his body fell to the ground as soon as he became weak, and his eyes were gone.

"......" Li Zhi looked at the elder of the Shuzhi who was already lifeless, nodded silently, and whispered: "Mr. Jing, don't worry, let's go, I will definitely go hand in hand with Brother Meng De, and there will never be the kind of situation that the old man is worried about." ”

After Cao Cao's Da Li Zhi on the side finished speaking, he untied his big hat and covered it on the body of the elder of the Shu branch.

Then, after a moment of silence, he sighed deeply, shook his head, and did not speak.

As the saying goes, people are dying and their words are good, and the words of Elder Shuzhi just now touched Cao Cao a lot.

Originally, Cao Cao felt that all people with dissenting intentions deserved to die, but after this incident, Cao Cao felt that these people might not be able to be saved.

There are many people who make mistakes on the spur of the moment, not on the spur of the moment.

Such a person can be punished and educated at the same time, maybe he will turn back.

Just after Cao Cao was silent, the old lady Cao also came to the front of the elder of the Shu branch, and after trimming his clothes and crown for him, he took off a piece of jade pendant from his waist and put it in the hands of the elder of the Shu branch.

Then, Mrs. Cao gave him a whole coat on him, and said with a sad face: "Big brother, one misstep becomes a thousand years of hatred, it's you, right?"

However, fortunately, you finally repented before you died, so that you will not be shameless in the face of your ancestors and ancestors after you go down.

Big brother, in fact, at this age when I wait, I have to go one step earlier and one step later.

You should take the first step and give the younger brother a good seat, and the younger brother will come to you in a few years.

At that time, wouldn't you be happy for you and me to put aside all identities and talk freely about the good things in the world? ”

"Father!" After Cao Cao heard the words of the old lady Cao, he looked shocked.

"It's okay!" After the old lady Cao straightened up again, she waved her hand with a smile and said: "People over fifty are not young, the old man has lived to be more than seventy years old, even if it is normal to sleep tomorrow, there is no need to have too many taboos." ”

"......" Cao Cao heard this, and after opening his mouth, he didn't know how to persuade him.

He could see that Mrs. Cao really saw through life and death.

It's not that he is not afraid of death, but he feels that he has tasted and experienced everything in his life, and has no regrets, so he is not afraid of life and death.

Therefore, Cao Cao didn't know how to persuade his father, the old lady Cao had already seen through life and death, what could he say?

Old lady Cao looked at Cao Cao, who wanted to speak and stopped, and after chuckling, she immediately changed the topic and asked Li Zhi: "Xingzhi Xian nephew, do you really rest assured that the military power has been handed over to the young patriarch of the Shu branch?"

Aren't you afraid that he will make the fake come true and really control Meng De's mansion? ”

"Huh...... Mrs. Cao was too worried. Li Zhi opened the folding fan with a "swoop", and after laughing confidently, he said: "The reason why the little nephew dares to hand over the tiger talisman to the young patriarch of the Shu branch is because the little nephew has absolute certainty that he can control the army in the hands of the little nephew!"

Even if there is no tiger talisman, they will only listen to the little nephew!

If the young patriarch of the Shu branch really dares to rebel, then as soon as the little nephew appears in front of the army, those soldiers and horses in his hands will immediately defect! ”

At this point, he paused, chuckled, and said, "Actually, this can be regarded as a small test."

If the young patriarch of the Shu branch does not rebel, the little nephew will intercede with Brother Meng De, so that Brother Meng De will only condemn the young patriarch of the Shu branch and let the other branches go.

If he doesn't know what to do...... Hum! ”

Speaking of this, Li Zhi just snorted coldly and did not continue.

However, just looking at the killing intent in his eyes, anyone can understand that once the young patriarch of the Shuzhi branch does not know what to do, then his fate will inevitably be very miserable!
