"My lord, please see the descendants of King Deng Ai."

Pang Tong and Cao Zhi glanced at each other, but they couldn't figure out the situation. I had to call the messenger directly into the study. I saw that this person was an ordinary weak person, and he came to spread the word very simply, that is, Cao Chong got a few good horses, and asked Cao Zhi to go to the horse farm to have a look. Just such a small thing, Pang Tong said: "It must be the same as my thoughts." ”

"How?"

"Instead of being hostile to two powerful brothers, it is better to join forces to protect yourself. But in this way, there will still be a fight in the end, and someone must win. But the King of Runan and the King of Chengwei will never join forces. ”

Cao Zhi stood up, his hands pressed on the table, and a heavy shadow seemed to be condensed between his eyebrows.

"How the hell did you see through all of this?"

Pang Tong stretched the corners of his lips and said with a smile: "I have always been Emperor Ren's guard and advisor. It's just that everyone else thinks I'm a martial artist. He stared at Cao Zhi earnestly. Go ahead. ”

There is a horse farm in the northwest of Xuchang City, there are many good horses inside, and the army often comes to pick horses. In the dusty area, the fence is large and small. Some of them are large pens and small pens, arranged evenly one by one, and all kinds of horse breeds are available one by one.

Cao Chong ordered someone to pull a yellow horse, stood on tiptoe and touched the horse's face and said, "Look at this guy, how strong he is, I think it's better to match the third brother." Just ask someone to bring it over, the third brother will take a look, do you like it? ”

Where did Cao Zhi understand horses, he didn't expect Cao Chong to understand horses. He casually walked over, patted the horse's belly, and said, "If it's really a good horse, just give it to my brother?" ”

"Of course!" Cao Chong looked up at Cao Zhi, who was a head taller than him. "The third brother is magnificent, and it is best to ...... with this horse"

Pang Tong was sleepy when he heard it, and he didn't pay attention to it, and he kept thinking about Xueyue, who had not heard any news. But just then, he saw someone coming on horseback. The first person is Cao Zhang, who is led by dozens of horses.

Pang Tong frowned and coughed dryly.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, Cao Zhi looked blankly to the east, that Cao Zhang was burly and already very close.

"How to ......" Cao Zhi's voice changed from big to small. Will the second brother be here? ”

"Normal." Cao Chong said: "The racecourse was originally a place where the second brother often came. ”

"That's just as well."

"It's a fart." Pang Tong said in his heart: "I'm afraid that you Cao Chong is cheating." ”

Cao Zhang was dressed in silver armor, and after that, his subordinates did not move. He rolled over and dismounted, striding forward, a smile on his face.

"I thought it was so familiar. It turned out that they were all their own brothers. Cao Zhang laughed.

Cao Chong smiled: "I don't know if the second brother is here......"

"It doesn't matter if you know it or not! You have a good relationship and left my second brother aside. He said as he passed between the two of them, and looked at the yellow horse carefully. But a good horse, who are you going to give away from my brother? He looked at the two of them.

Pang Tong looked at him behind Cao Zhi.

Cao Chong said: "I got a few good horses, so let the third brother accompany me to take a look." The eldest brother and the second brother are all working for their father, and they are not easy to disturb. ”

"What words! It's all my own brothers! Cao Zhang said roughly: "Such a good horse, I want it!" ”

"It should be the second brother who is the most suitable to ride this horse." Cao Zhi looked at the horse with a serious expression. "I just said that among our four brothers, the second brother is the most powerful."

"Yo! That's all there is to say. Cao Zhang sneered: "Let King Runan hear, it's not good to give our brother a crime of bullying the king for many years." ”

As soon as these words came out, Cao Zhi and Cao Chong also laughed.

"It's a joke." Cao Zhang slammed his elbow on the horse's belly, and the yellow horse neighed and galloped out. A few grooms were in a hurry.

"This animal is fierce, and I don't want it anymore." Cao Zhang said with a smile. Then he led his men and horses away, causing a burst of loess to fill the sky.

"Since the second brother doesn't want it, it's still the three that are the most suitable. There are some things that I, as the fourth brother, don't say much, and don't make it difficult for my heart. Cao Chong said.

Cao Zhi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, how can I not want this horse?" ”

Then he exchanged a few more pleasantries. After returning to the house, Cao Zhi felt his mouth dry, drank a pot of water, and lay down on the back of a chair in the lobby. Pang Tong approached and said, "Why, can you be so thirsty?" ”

"The sand is in my mouth, these two people are really, if you want to quarrel, avoid it a little, and make me a fuss."

"That's not what I said." Pang Tong said: "This is the careful layout of King Deng Ai. He must have known that King Chengwei would be going there today, so he invited you over. In that case, you'll have to ally with him in the future......"

"Because I've been seen that way." Cao Zhi understands it very well. "This fourth brother has too many eyes in his heart, and he can't prevent it. But...... Such words reached the ears of the eldest brother...... He and the second brother will definitely be more violent. Then he looked at the top of the black press.

"Do you know that those assassins have nothing to do with King Dunai?"

"No kidding." Cao Zhi smiled bitterly: "My brain is about to burst, I really don't have the leisure to think about such a complicated thing, can the fourth brother do this?" ”

"There are a lot of things that you still have to keep an eye on." Pang Tong said: "In that case, let's think about how to use King Deng Ai." ”

"What's your opinion?"

"I want to know what he's capable of." Pang Tong whispered: "Something about having a meal." ”

Cao Zhi nodded, and there was another palpitation, and at some point, a figure had already stood at the door of the lobby. He exhaled and said, "The footsteps of the Commander of the Infantry are really unbearable. ”

"But the question is...... She didn't make a sound at all. Pang Tong turned his back to Xueyue and smiled, and excitement was buried in that smile.

"Have you eaten?" Xue Yue walked in casually, as if she was visiting. "Don't call me for dinner."

Pang Tong turned half of his body and said, "You have made us wait so hard, I am afraid that we will be captured by the enemy, so how can we be good?" ”

"Commander Zhou doesn't say 'we' next time he says something like this, why did you bring the king with you?" Xue Yue glared at him.

Cao Zhi's gaze wandered over the two of them.

"Commander Zhou is right, I'm very worried about Commander Bu, what if you have any mistakes to call me?"

"Isn't there still Commander Zhou?" Xueyue kept looking at Pang Tong, and the subtle displeasure on her face seemed to ask, "Are you really worried about me?" ”

Pang Tong glanced at Cao Zhi and said, "What a worrying woman, please forgive the king." ”

"What's the matter?" Pang Tong turned back and asked Xueyue again.

"Nothing." Xue Yue replied coldly.

"But it's been a long time." Cao Zhi said suspiciously.

"Yes, but I just didn't get anything, and I was also searching everywhere, so tired." She dismissed the two of them and left.

If there is anything that can only be told to Pang Tong, then it is understandable to go back to the room to say it. But when she got to the room, Xue Yue slept peacefully on the couch, and Pang Tong didn't ask anything. He felt that Xue Yue was tired. But as for why she left for so long, Xueyue didn't give any accurate answer, but just said "no clues".

Pang Tong didn't say much, but he only felt that there was an extra hurdle between the two, which made people feel unbearable. He was now very worried about the situation in the north, and Cao Wei had obviously focused all his attention on the war situation in the north. If he can dismantle Cao Wei from the inside, it is certainly the best policy, but if it takes a long time and there is a crisis in the Ren Dynasty, then he must return immediately.

When Cao Zhi was still having breakfast, Pang Tong had already approached his room. Cao Zhi immediately asked all the attendants to retreat, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and said, "Now that the roof is full of guards, I am completely surrounded by soldiers, but I can sit back and relax." ”

"Such an arrangement is also a last resort, and now the situation is full of crises, and we must take the initiative."

"Sit." Cao Zhidao.

Pang Tong pulled a chair and sat down.

"We must get rid of King Runan as soon as possible." Pang Tong lowered his voice.

Although Cao Zhi had long been best prepared for the cruelty of the hand-foot struggle, he still trembled in his heart when he heard Pang Tong directly say the word "solve". After a long time, he cleaned up his surprised face and said, "Orderly, ...... do this."

"It's for the sake of righteousness, for the sake of living." Pang Tong reminded that he was not allowed to make excuses.

"But it's not easy to say, there are many guards around the eldest brother, and I'm afraid it's not convenient to assassinate with the two commanders. If the incident at the east window happens, it will also affect my head. ”

"It's not burdensome, it's all done for you, the king." Pang Tong's expression was serious. "And it doesn't have to be killed. If the king of Runan is killed so easily, it will definitely shock the government and the opposition, and it is impossible to say who will be the crown prince at that time. It would be stupid and unrealistic to kill all the dissidents. ”

"So what?"

"Put him in jail." Pang Tong said categorically: "This is the only move." ”

"How is that possible?"

Pang Tong said: "Since the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, there have been cases of people in the inner palace using voodoo techniques. ”

"I've never believed in that kind of thing."

"I don't believe it either, what we have to do is to make Emperor Wei Wu believe it. Put the voodoo stuff in the palace of Runan, and the plan will be accomplished. Pang Tong smiled confidently.

Cao Zhi said coldly: "Is this practice too unfair? ”

"You still want to be above board?" Pang Tong smiled bitterly. "When you were assassinated, the enemy was open to you?"

"Done." Cao Zhi said as if he had made up his mind: "What should I do? ”

"Leave it to me and Commander Bu, and when the emperor exposes the king of Runan, King Chen Si will go out by himself."
