When the entire barracks had not been completely demolished, Ren Jun finally came to Cao Cao's tent. Because he knows that the investigation of the case is already his limit. Further down the investigation, it is not a case, but politics.

Politics is something that Ren Jun feels has never been something he can play. And it was only today that he suddenly understood why Cao Gong had to ask him to investigate this matter - he is a very measured person and knows how to stop in moderation.

At this time, Cao Cao was leaning on the couch, holding a book and reading it with relish, and the wine glass in front of him was still slightly hot. was so leisurely and comfortable, he really couldn't see from him any signs of panic that the Cao army was about to withdraw from Yanzhou.

"Boda, are you here?" Cao Cao put the book down and said kindly.

Ren Jun saw that the book Cao Cao was reading was the book "Monarchy Is Not Divine" published by the Propaganda Department of the Ministry of Rites of the Ma Family, and his brows furrowed slightly. But the cautious psychology of staying away from politics made him quickly take his eyes off the book, and said with a deep salute: "Ming Gong, his subordinates are incompetent, and the investigation of the case can only bring two inferences. ”

"Oh?" Cao Cao was obviously interested, although he had already guessed this in his heart, he was still very curious: "Let's talk about it." ”

Ren Jun pondered for a moment, the mastermind of this case, whether it was the Ma family or His Majesty, Cao Cao was in a dilemma: the news that the Ma family had won Youzhou had been transmitted to Cao Jun's ears, and at present, Cao Jun had no strength to resist on the battlefield in Jizhou. The only choice is to clear up the hatred with the Ma family, and the two families will be in peace and seek their own development; And if the mastermind is really His Majesty, Cao Gong can't do it.

In other words, among the insiders of this matter, only Ren Jun's own situation is the most delicate, and he can't help but carefully consider some words. But Cao Cao seemed to see Ren Jun's worries, and said again: "Boda, but it's okay to say, don't you know what kind of person I am?" ”

Ren Jun smiled very vaguely and bitterly, this unconscious action he couldn't stop at all - Cao Cao has always been Ren Jun's unpredictable person, sometimes amiable, like an old friend for many years, sometimes he kills people without blinking.

However, one thing is recognized, Cao Gong is a smart person, and it is best to tell the truth when talking to smart people. As a result, Ren Jun said frankly: "Duke Ming, the subordinates deduce, there are only two people who are the masterminds this time......." Ren Jun then told his investigation and inferences without reservation, and handed over the tokens and other evidence he searched to Cao Cao for inspection.

However, Cao Cao didn't even look at it, and after listening to Ren Jun's report, he closed his eyes: "Sure enough, it's almost as I imagined, this kind of princes' dumping and political conspiracy are the most laborious, far more worrying than a battle of Guandu......"

Ren Jun nodded sympathetically, and he agreed with this very much. However, at the same time, there was a hint of trepidation in his heart. Because at the moment he needs Cao Cao a treatment plan, if Cao Cao can't say it at this time, Ren Jun understands, then he, a person who knows too much, may be very dangerous.

Fortunately, Cao Cao saw Ren Jun's concern, and after thinking for a moment, he asked a crucial question: "Now it seems that Your Majesty is more suspicious....... then I want to know, if the Ma family wants to imitate the token of the Red Eagle Ride, is it possible?" ”

"It's unlikely," Ren Jun shook his head, his focus was very clear, and he only cared about the conclusive evidence: "Not to mention that the Ma family and the Yuan family have very little interaction, just say that the special metal content in the Ma family's shadow token and the Yuan family's token is still a little different." ”

Ren Jun took out a piece of Yanzhou paper, and successively took out the Ma Family Shadow Token and the Red Eagle Riding Token and drew two lines on it. Cao Cao saw that although these two tokens could draw traces on the white paper, it was obvious that the traces of the Ma family's shadow token were deeper.

"Does this mean that the amount of metal doped in the two tokens is different?" Cao Cao immediately understood what Ren Jun meant, and quickly asked again: "The Red Eagle Rider and Jing'an Cao's tokens are the same?" ”

"Same."

"Oh, in this way, the token of the Red Eagle Rider doesn't need to be replaced uniformly......." Ren Jun knew that Cao Cao was making a helpless joke, but he couldn't laugh at all.

"You don't need to worry so much, Boda." Cao Cao saw that Ren Jun's mood was not high, and waved his hand and said, "I said, you and I are a family, and I won't have too many ominous thoughts about you." After a pause, Cao Cao also knew that these words did not make any sense at all, and said again: "As you expected, how many possibilities do Ma Chao and His Majesty have for each other?" ”

"There are four points of probability for Ma Chao to do it, and His Majesty ......" Ren Jun will not talk about it later, this kind of four or six probability, enlightenment children know.

"Good." Cao Cao fell into deep thought, still lying on the couch casually, he was in a trance like a crouching tiger thinking about his prey, and his deep eyes flashed with cunning and fierce light from time to time. It seemed that a long time had passed, and it was not until Ren Jun felt that the cold sweat behind him was about to drip into the ground that Cao Cao finally smiled.

"Zhicai, come out." Cao Cao clapped his hands, and then sat up. But Ren Jun was taken aback and couldn't help but raise his head.

Xi Zhicai walked out of the screen after Cao Cao fell asleep, his face was still a little pale, but judging from the light pace, his mood was very good. After also bowing to Cao Cao, he said to Ren Jun: "Brother Boda, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Ren Jun politely returned the salute, but he didn't understand what trick Cao Cao was playing. And Cao Cao didn't care about Ren Jun's presence at all, and said to Xi Zhicai with a smile: "You also heard what Boda said just now, the matter has been investigated here, in your professional opinion, there is no need to continue the investigation, right?" ”

Xi Zhicai smiled and replied a little lazily: "Ming Gong also has a plan in his heart, so why bother asking?" ”

"So what should we do now?"

Xi Zhicai didn't even feel wasted opening his mouth this time, and only gently spit out three words: "Scapegoat." ”

"Not bad!" Cao Cao smiled again, this smile was full of a kind of domineering spirit, and he was not at all estranged by the fact that he was a little bit of a genius because of the drama Zhicai, but praised it greatly: "Sure enough, it is worthy of being the head of my Cao clan's Jing'an Cao!" ”

Ren Jun couldn't react for a while, but after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly understood what Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai meant: Now the Ma family and His Majesty can't move, but the assassination of Cao Gong must be concluded. Since neither of them can move, they must come and find a scapegoat to carry the black pot.

And at the moment, in addition to Qingzhou Yuan Tan, who has a red eagle riding to defect, who is more suitable?

Although the Cao family was tired up and down at this time, this handle could be buried. When the Cao clan needs to annex Qingzhou, Jing'an Cao will be able to make a quite favorable public opinion offensive with this, and pour out all the unswallowable anger of Jizhou in Qingzhou, which has been surrounded by Cao's rule!

With Yuan Tan as the scapegoat, this incident will come to an end here, and his own safety will naturally be free of scruples.

This plan not only relieved the heart of his subordinate, but also avoided the head-to-head confrontation between the Ma family and His Majesty that day, and temporarily hid the accumulated advantages, laying the foundation for the next development of the Cao family. In a short period of time, Cao Gong came up with a clever plan to kill three birds with one stone and turn things around, and his wisdom really flowed like the stars and the moon, which was unfathomable.

"Boda, are you at ease now?" Cao Cao smiled and asked again, and Ren Jun knelt down to thank him. But Cao Cao didn't want to be like this, so he opened his mouth and said, "Boda, I said that after this matter is over, I will give you the title of marquis." Once the army returns to Yanzhou, you'll be able to see your fiefdom. ”

At this time, Ren Jun no longer knew how to thank Cao Cao, and after holding back the warm emotion in his chest, he still withdrew from Cao Cao's tent after being thanked.

But as soon as Ren Jun left, Cao Cao's face turned cold at the moment, and he asked faintly at Xi Zhicai, "Where did Dian Wei really go?" ”

"Not bad."

"Well....... Cao Cao stroked his short beard, and finally added: "Ma Mengqi is unstoppable, Dian Wei alone may not be able to win, let Xu Chu also go with him." Here, there is no much to do...... "Mu ^ remnant ^ text ^ study (), if you think it's good, press ctrl+D to collect this book!
