Among the four countries of the Central Plains, if the majesty of the imperial palace is said, it must be the Wei State, and the eastern capital Luoyang is not mentioned for the time being, after all, Luoyang is located in the four countries and cannot be used as the capital.

Chang'an is the second largest city after Luoyang.

In the dark of night, the lights in the Weiyang Palace were bright, Cao Chao looked at the huge picture in the palace, stunned, the land of Wei has been doing this since he ascended the throne, and it has not grown at all until now.

Emperor Wu is a monarch who started a business, Emperor Wen is a king who keeps the success, and they all have pioneering achievements, and even the traitor Sima Yi has laid down Yizhou for the Wei State, and he has been on the throne for many years, not only has he not pioneered, but Hedong is about to be lost.

He said to himself slightly: "Hedong is erosive, the blood of the Wei State will be exhausted here, no reform, no law, Cao Lin, Cao Lin, if you are interested, just obediently hand over the power, I will make you prosperous and rich." ”

There are some signs of something wrong between the emperor and the generals, and people with a more sensitive sense of smell can smell it, especially those scholars who are extremely sensitive to politics, and the political situation of Wei has returned to the political fighting link they like to see.

The emperor wants to enable the wind direction of the scholar clan has just been released, and some scholars have begun to move closer to the emperor, although these scholars have lost power for a long time, but they have a reputation in the sea, and fame is the capital of officials, especially the scholars only lose power in the center, and they are still intertwined in the locality.

On the third day after Cao Lin met Cao Chao, a decree from the forbidden place in Shangshu Province ignited the entire Wei State, and the content of the decree was roughly as follows-

"I once read the history books, and knew that King Su reused the clan of the surname Ji, so I was able to stabilize the world of the Zhou family, although I was smaller and despicable than King Su, but I was also willing to follow the truth of King Su, so I reused the clan relatives, and the Wei State was prosperous.

I heard that King Su not only reused the clan relatives surnamed Ji, but also begged for sages in the world, and when I heard that a sage was coming, I didn't even have time to swallow the meal, so I hurriedly went to meet the sage.

I want to emulate King Su, not only to reuse the clansmen, but also to appoint the sages of the world to make the Great Wei more prosperous.

I wondered what the Great Wei relied on to seize the vast land now?

It is because Emperor Wu is wise and martial, the ancestors of the Xiahou clan and the Cao clan used their lives, and Xun Lingjun and other famous people at home and abroad are assisted, and now I only have the assistance of my relatives and relatives, so I can't let the Wei State be unified.

It was my fault that the scholars of Wei left Wei to go to Kanto to find their master, and the scholars of Wei gave up their ancestral land to seek a future in distant Kanto.

I couldn't appoint a sage, so it led to such a result, which I didn't want to see, and this was something that Great Wei couldn't afford.

Now I want to change all that, so I issue this edict.

I am willing to give honorable positions to those who are talented but lost in the wilderness, those who have high fame but cannot be treated with courtesy by the court, and those who are worried about the country and the people but cannot share the worries for the country. ”

In the distant Later Han Dynasty, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty issued the most severe party order, not allowing scholars to be officials, but this time, the emperor issued a will to unravel the scholars, so that the scholars returned to the court.

Since Sima Yi's disaster, this is the first time that the royal family has released such a clear signal in such a formal and large-scale manner.

Emperor Cao Chao directly issued a clear decree, the determination is great, it can be seen, this time is the real monarch without jokes, if Cao Chao retracts this will, the scholar clan will completely abandon him.

An emperor who changes his order is not worthy of the allegiance of these nobles, and they will wait for the next emperor to appear.

After Cao Chao's decree was issued, the imperial court envoys soon went to the counties, and the reactions of the scholars varied.

Many scholars began to come to Chang'an, especially those who urgently needed high-ranking officials and dignitaries to decorate their façade, but many were also reluctant to come, but wanted to live in seclusion.

In the years since the establishment of the Wei State, many people have been miserable and unwilling to step into this troubled water.

Scholars came in droves from various fields, calling friends to go to the court to see the emperor, this time Cao Chao's order to seek talent made many great Confucian scholars appear in Guanzhong, and it was quite lively for a while.

Cao Chao listened excitedly to the report of the close ministers, clenched his fists and said: "As long as these scholars come to the imperial court, I will have another force that can be used, and in many ways, I can exclude the power of my clan relatives and carry it out myself."

Why didn't I make up my mind until now, damn Sima Yi, if he hadn't caused trouble to the Great Wei, how would the Queen Mother have hindered me for so many years. ”

It can only be said that the blessings and misfortunes are inexplicable, and without Sima Yi's words, Cao Chao would not have become the emperor, but with Sima Yi, the political trauma caused by Wei has only eased slightly.

This kind of alleviation is not because the political wounds of Wei have really been healed, but because Murong Ke has caused more damage to Wei, so that the emperor and the empress dowager have to forget the faint pain of the past.

The fastest to enter Chang'an is naturally the old scholars in Guanzhong, these people returned to the township, and now as soon as they received the edict, they immediately went straight to Chang'an, and Cao Chao immediately met these people.

The General's Mansion in Chang'an City, since the edict was issued, the atmosphere has always been very solemn, and even the servants have become extremely quiet, for fear of provoking a big person, you can imagine the extremely depressed atmosphere in the mansion now.

In the main hall, Cao Lin and his henchmen sat in it with a calm face, the biggest impact of this edict was them, these scholars must be officials when they enter the imperial court, and they are also big officials, and the official position will be out of their hands.

Even if it is not out of their hands, but the power of the court is so much, any adjustment of official positions is unacceptable to them, and how many official positions have been gradually abandoned because of adjustment since ancient times.

How brilliant the Three Princes and Nine Qing were in the early Han Dynasty, but in the Later Han Dynasty, they gradually declined with the appearance of Shang Shutai, and the loss of power was something that Cao Lin could not tolerate.

"Tell me, what now?"

Cao Lin's voice was quite dull, looking at everyone, hoping to get a good way to deal with it, instead of a bunch of complaints about the emperor, he had heard too much of that kind of words, and he didn't want to hear it anymore.

Everyone in the hall looked at each other, and the confrontation between the courtiers and the emperor was almost impossible for the courtiers to win, so how could they come up with ideas.

Cao Chengsi walked in from the outside, and everyone saluted Cao Chengsi, Cao Chengsi saluted Cao Lin and said: "Father, don't embarrass you anymore, the emperor is the monarch's father, and he is the natural superior of the courtiers, how can he have any ideas, as long as you still uphold this idea, you can only be slaughtered."

The son knows that his father is a loyal minister, but the son hopes that his father will not be a foolish and loyal person, when the Han Dynasty was in the first place, the Jingnan princes raised troops to rebel against the Han Emperor, which can be said to be very disloyal to the Han Emperor, but who can say that the Jingnan princes are not loyal ministers?

My son already knows who is bewitching Your Majesty, we impeach these people and call on righteous people to kill these people, as long as we can kill these traitors around His Majesty the Emperor, Your Majesty will naturally know that only you are the loyal servant of Great Wei. ”

Cao Lin couldn't help but hold his forehead when he heard this, and everyone else in the hall showed surprise.

Cao Lin knew that Cao Chengsi would say this, but he was still very hesitant, feeling that it was inappropriate, or rather, he didn't dare.

Once this thing fails, it will be the end of the death of the clan, and the struggle between him and the emperor will not reach the current level.

Martyrdom of the princes.

Cao Lin naturally knew that he was far from being able to compare with the princes of Jingnan.

Everyone under Cao Lin's command was stunned by Cao Chenghe's words, they all thought that this was what Cao Lin meant, but they didn't expect Cao Lin to have such a drastic idea.

Some people immediately wanted to persuade Cao Lin, but some people seemed to have opened the door to a new world, it turned out that it could be like this, and now our strength is still very strong, why can't we use strong strength to accomplish our goals?

"Heir, your idea is too radical, and I think my father should be conservative."

Cao Chengsi smiled slightly: "Father, when you are constantly interrupted, you will suffer from it, your son knows that you will hesitate, and your son also knows that you agree with your son in your heart, so your son has already sent someone out." ”

？？？

Cao Lin was directly stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't even speak, and said dumbfounded: "Heir, what are you doing when you say sending people out?" What did you do? ”

Cao Chengsi still had the same slightly smiling expression, but in Cao Lin's eyes, he looked like a demon urging his life, Cao Chengsi said: "As you think, those scholars have long colluded with the Liang State and the Yan State to deliberately pass on the news, causing the defeat of the Hedong army. ”

Quiet.

Quiescence.

Deathly silence.

It is often said that the beautiful singing voice can linger for three days, but now it seems that the same can be true of shocking words, Cao Chengsi said, in the entire hall, no one spoke, only the sound of whirring and panting, and everyone was stunned by Cao Chengsi.

Cao Lin's hands trembled, he pointed at Cao Chenghei tremblingly, and after a long time, he whispered: "Don't you care about the life of your family at all? Don't blame me for not caring about the relationship between father and son, I can't protect you in this matter. ”

Cao Lin's words were to give up Cao Chenghe, to throw Cao Chengsi out, and to appease the anger of the scholars and the emperor.

Cao Chengsi saluted respectfully when he heard this, without the slightest fear, and said with a flat expression: "Father, you are wrong, things have come to this point, how can you still want to take a step back, do you think that if you throw me out, those scholars and His Majesty the Emperor will let you go?"

You occupy such a high position, even if there is no such thing, how many people would want to kill you as quickly as possible?

Now that I have left such a handle, killing you is a great achievement. ”

Cao Chengsi's words were so respectful, but his words were full of faint mockery, Emperor Cao Chao's evaluation of Cao Lin was Cao Shuang, and Cao Chengsi's evaluation of his father was also Cao Shuang.

If it weren't for Cao Lin being too indecisive, he wouldn't have made such a decision, and now he is forcing Cao Chengsi to do these things, or forcing Cao Chengsi to go all the way to the dark.

Almost every word of what he said hit Cao Lin's heart hard, the most terrible emotion in this world is doubt, once doubt rises, then there must be someone who bleeds to stop.

Cao Chengsi induced Cao Lin to tell Cao Lin that the person who bleeds was none other than Cao Lin himself, which formed a perfect closed loop in Cao Lin's heart.

I have to say that Cao Chengsi is really a genius who plays with people's hearts, but it's a pity that he is not very good at military affairs, and in the face of Murong Ke, a military god of war and a political master, it is not enough to just play with people's hearts.

The reason why Cao Chengsi has to force Cao Lin to do these things all the time is very simple, he is an ambitious person, and the Cao family's throne has been inherited from a normal father and son since Cao Rui's indulgence, which makes Cao Chengsi see the opportunity, as long as the opportunity is right, he may not be able to claim the king in the south.

The most important thing is that Cao Chengsi thinks that he is the most outstanding one among the descendants of Emperor Wu, and he thinks that Cao Chao is not qualified to be the emperor of Wei, if he is Cao Chao, he would have killed the generals and these people to the bottom.

Of course, Cao Lin didn't know these thoughts of Cao Chengsi, as a classic indecisive person, a person who was not assertive and good at being guided, he was successfully forced to Liangshan by Cao Chengsi.

had to become a pawn in Cao Chengsi's plan, chose to go all the way with Cao Chengsi, began to mobilize the army, and killed those scholars, this matter could not be good, so he could only directly mobilize the army, launch a coup d'état, and control the emperor first.

Cao Chengsi didn't show a smug smile, he still smiled confidently, but there was a sharp cold light flashing in his eyes.

This was only the first step in his plan, and it was far from over.

No one would have thought that the general's counterattack would be so swift and fast, and that there would be no way to survive, which is not something that a normal person can do.

They were right.

Cao Chengsi is a madman.

……

When the sun was about to set, the city of Chang'an ushered in a tragic scene, those scholars who came out of the palace returned to their residences, and then they were hunted and killed from the general's mansion.

When the vicious soldiers rushed in, they were only frightened and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Naturally, no one will answer, just rush over and kill these people, and then there is no need to disguise the scene, after all, no one will come to investigate the real reason, from this moment on, this is no longer a political fight, but life and death, the king and the loser.

The chaos in the city soon attracted the attention of the imperial palace, and then the imperial palace immediately closed all the doors and put them on full alert, but the general's palace had no chance to mobilize the guards loyal to the emperor with or without intention, and although Cao Lin's war in Hedong failed, he had the qualifications to mobilize the army, but thousands of people were transferred into the city by him.

The forces in Chang'an City have been suddenly unbalanced.

These things have happened in a flash of lightning, and the emperor's strength is of course greater than Cao Lin's, but the coup has never been a competition for the absolute strength of the two sides, but a surprise and an unpreparedness.

Cao Lin didn't know how many things Cao Chengsi had done, but he knew that there must be a lot, and his son had been preparing for this day for a long time, and his identity as a general gave Cao Chengsi a great cover.

The city of Chang'an has begun to fall into initial chaos, but everything is still under control, almost all the streets have been put under martial law, and these things have nothing to do with ordinary people.

The other magnates don't know what is going on now, and suddenly there is chaos outside, and this sudden situation is unexpected by everyone.

In the palace, Cao Chao was already stunned, he didn't know what was going on at all, he only knew that there was chaos outside, and then the palace was immediately on alert, until now what happened outside the palace, he didn't know.

Cao Lin, Cao Chengsi and others are all sitting in the army, fully armed, Cao Lin still has a sad face, he really deserves to be a top wreck, and he can't make up his mind until now, and he relies on Cao Chengsi to push step by step.

Cao Chengsi covered his entire face with a ghostly mask on his face, and said in a hoarse voice: "Father, now what we have to do is to negotiate with the emperor."

Give the heads of these scholars to the emperor, and let the emperor issue an edict to tell the people of the world that these people are traitors who are causing chaos in the dynasty, and we are indeed the side of the Qing monarch, otherwise our actions in this line will not be revealed in the history.

How can our righteous deeds be demonstrated? ”

This remark made everyone in the barracks a little uncomfortable, some people can indeed say it outside, but they are also so hypocritical in front of their own people, it is really uncomfortable.

But everyone still agrees with Cao Chenghe's words, and that's all that can be done now, you can't go directly to the palace and kill the emperor, who dares to bear the charge of killing the king?

Unless Cao Chao can be beaten into a single husband, but even if Cao Chao is not the kind of wise and martial monarch, it is absolutely impossible to be a single husband, and it is absolutely impossible for the historian to violate the principle to record, and even if the historian of the Wei State loses his bones, the historians of several other countries will also truthfully record this matter.

Therefore, it is absolutely not okay to kill the king, and the side of the Qing monarch is the side of the Qing monarch, and the punishment of the Dufu is the punishment of the Dufu, these are two completely different political banners.

Cao Lin is a waste, but after all, after being a general for so many years, he still knows what to do, so he immediately ordered: "Send these heads to the palace immediately, and let people inform the emperor that we have killed the traitors, and now as long as Your Majesty is willing to issue a decree to pardon our sins, then everything can be over." ”

Cao Lin's envoy soon came to the palace walls, arranged all the heads of the scholars, sent them in, and then repeated Cao Lin's words.

The news reached the palace, Cao Chao finally knew what was going on now, his whole popularity was shaky, and he finally stabilized his body, but he still couldn't believe that Cao Lin would rebel.

He hasn't done anything yet, why has Cao Lin already rebelled?

Since ancient times, there have been countless things where the emperor has weakened the power of the ministers, basically the ministers have taken the initiative to retreat, Cao Lin should be psychologically prepared, how dare he rebel, does he think that he can really control the Wei State?

Does he think that if he controls himself today, he will be able to make the people of the world obey him?

Are those scholars who are entrenched in the local area so easy to get along with?

It's just hilarious!

Looking at the dead heads, Cao Chao was dizzy again, these people he had just seen not long ago, some of them were still people who he thought were more talented, people who could be entrusted with important tasks, but now they all turned into a corpse and appeared in front of him.

"You go and tell Cao Lin that I will never yield to him, this world is my world, I am the emperor of Great Wei, and it is absolutely impossible for me to give in to a courtier, especially a rebellious courtier."

Cao Chao's character has been very strong since he was a child, and now it is the same, in the face of Cao Lin's coercion, he chose to be positive and tough, rather than false and wrong.

When Cao Chao's words reached the barracks, it immediately caused an uproar, and the emperor's reaction was beyond Cao Lin's expectations, and he asked in disbelief: "This is the emperor's original words?"

Bengong has such a large army here, even enough to attack the imperial city, doesn't Your Majesty consider it?

Ben Gong has now done his best to restrain the soldiers, and if His Majesty the Emperor does not agree with Ben Gong's opinion, Ben Gong really does not know what will happen. ”

Cao Lin was still talking nonsense here, but Cao Chenghe, who was covered with a veil, said straightforwardly: "Father, until now, what else is there to think about?"

Since Your Majesty is unwilling to give an order, there must still be traitors by your side, these traitors have been killed by us, and now Your Majesty must be surrounded by those eunuchs, these eunuchs destroyed the Qin Dynasty, and the Later Han Dynasty also perished because of the eunuchs, and now they are coming to plague my Great Wei, which is unbearable, now rush into the palace to protect Your Majesty and eliminate the last traitors! ”

Cao Chengsi's words were high-sounding, but what he said was terrifying, attacking the palace was something that no one dared to think of, but it was so normal to say it from Cao Chengsi's mouth, as if it was a matter of course, he could even say it with righteousness, as if he really wanted to clear the traitors around him for the emperor.

I have to say that Cao Chengsi has reached the highest level of deception, that is, he has deceived himself.

Cao Lin still wanted to hesitate, but Cao Chengsi urged again, Cao Lin gritted his teeth and decided to do it, because he always felt that if he didn't make up his mind, his son would have to do it himself.

"Ladies and gentlemen, because there are traitors around the emperor, the country is in danger, so we gather here to fight for the Great Wei, and now we have killed the traitors but the emperor has not issued a pardon for us, this must be because there are traitors around him.

Eunuchs, since ancient times, have been morally corrupt people, since ancient times, they have been people who have caused chaos in the dynasty, since ancient times, they have been people who have caused the destruction of the country, and now they surround the emperor, causing the emperor's ears to be blinded, causing the emperor's eyes to be unable to distinguish between loyalty and adultery, causing the emperor to not be able to pardon us, causing the emperor to do mediocre wrongdoing.

Now we are attacking the palace, not because we are disrespectful to the emperor, but because we want to save the emperor from fire and water, and we want to pull the emperor out of the whirlpool of eunuchs and traitors.

Loyal ministers always have to experience more, loyal and righteous people always have to bear more responsibilities, just like us now, just like the former Jingnan princes, all the soldiers, work hard, we gather together, for the bright future of the Great Wei, and fight together.

Entering the palace, this is the final battle, and a bright future awaits us. ”

Cao Lin is indeed incompetent, but he still has a few brushes in terms of boosting morale, and he has been able to get to the point where he is now, and his majestic appearance and quite flickering eloquence have definitely made great contributions.

As soon as these soldiers heard his declaration, the last bit of worry was gone, and they completely believed that they were saving the emperor, which was not wrong from Cao Lin's point of view.

So far, he has not thought about killing the king, he just wants to control the emperor, as for the future, he will talk about it later, but now he just wants to be a complete minister, especially if he is a clan, it is not the same as a foreign surname minister, and the clan will not be too opposed.

The encouraged soldiers rushed towards the palace, the palace walls of the imperial city were not built for war, it was impossible to resist at all, and soon crumbling, Cao Chengsi left the camp to make other preparations, and the incident happened to this point, and both sides had no way to retreat.

In the palace, Cao Chao knew the news that Cao Lin began to attack the city, and his face instantly turned pale, Cao Lin was decisive, and Cao Chao even thought that Cao Lin was deceiving himself in the past, and he had already had bad intentions.

Cao Chao's attendants were in a panic all day long, and the banner of Cao Lin's army was the Qing monarch's side, and they said by name that the eunuchs around the emperor were traitors, what does this mean, and when Cao Lin's army rushed in, they would die.

"Your Majesty, Cao Lin, a thief, really dared to attack the palace, he wanted to rebel and become the emperor."

Now the only one who can save their lives is Cao Chao, but as everyone knows, Cao Chao himself is crumbling, let alone them.

Cao Chao listened to the shouting and killing sound coming from the distant palace wall, he carefully recalled his every step, but he still couldn't find any mistakes or omissions, he didn't do anything, the only mistake was that he didn't kill Cao Lin directly.

But he never wanted to kill Cao Lin, he just wanted to regain power.

"Is it because I have too much bottom line? But for thousands of years, it has been like this, why did Cao Lin rebel directly, did he think I would kill him? ”

This is a question that Cao Chao is puzzled about, why did Cao Lin rebel.

It's not just that he can't figure it out, but Cao Lin, who is now rebelling, can't figure out why he would embark on the road of rebellion.

Is it because of the son?

But if he was really a loyal minister, he would not have come to this point, after all, it was countless greed that led to all this.

The defense of the imperial city was crumbling, with a roaring sound, the gate of the palace was instantly opened, like a torrent of soldiers rushed into the palace, these people may only be able to enter the palace this time in their lives, high palace walls, wide corridors, solemn and solemn, but in this solemn solemnity, there are countless corpses that fell to the ground and countless arrows stuck in the ground.

Cao Lin rode into the palace on a horse and wore armor, looking at those familiar buildings, he was full of emotion, he had been here countless times, but never thought that one day he would lead the army to break through here, he never thought that he would wave his sword at the owner of this palace.

Even if you think about it in a dream, you will suddenly wake up.

But all this happened today, he felt a person appear beside him, a ghost mask, it was his son, he said with emotion: "Heir, is this what you want?"

Now that your wish has come true, it's time for us to go to the Emperor. ”

Cao Chengsi did not speak, but nodded, and the army continued to advance, killing those soldiers who were unwilling to surrender.

Tonight's palace is blood-colored.

"The emperor is coming, the emperor is coming!"

Cao Lin was following the army forward, when he suddenly heard the palace guards shouting loudly, and in the brightly lit palace, Cao Chao was standing on the emperor's chariot with a sword in his hand.

His figure was extremely tall, his heroic aura was vertical and horizontal, his eyes were wide open, and his blood rushed out.

He appeared in front of the army with a rumbling sound, and as soon as he appeared, he pointed at Cao Lin and said loudly: "Cao Lin, are you going to wash the palace in blood?"

Who gave you the courage to rebel now and plunge my Great Wei into civil strife, are you worthy of your ancestors and ancestors? ”

Cao Chao's angry voice could be heard clearly by anyone, and the battlefield fell silent for a while, and the soldiers on both sides stared at the emperor, this was the monarch of Great Wei.

Cao Lin stepped down from the horse and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, the minister knows that you are now being coerced by traitors, so the words you said are not from your heart, now there must be a hidden arrow aimed at you, the minister knows, the minister is here to save you."

Look at these soldiers under the command of the ministers, they are all loyal ministers of His Majesty, and they are all loyal and upright people of my Great Wei.

This time will definitely be able to completely sweep away some of the dark clouds that are entrenched above my Great Wei Lang Lang. ”

It turned out that when they heard Cao Lin's words, the soldiers immediately understood that His Majesty had to say those words.

"Shameless!"

Cao Chao was almost mad by Cao Lin, but he didn't expect that at this time, he would still be able to talk nonsense with his eyes open, the key is that those soldiers still believe that this is the most angry.

How did he know that people in this world were unwilling to admit their mistakes.

The same is true of the soldiers.

If it is really the great general's mistake now, then what has become of them who broke through the imperial city?

Those who aid in abuse.

Of course, they can't allow themselves to become the ones who help and abuse them, then it can only be a general, yes, if it is Cao Chao on weekdays, he will definitely be able to react, but the ups and downs, Cao Chao who has been stimulated several times in a short period of time, his whole brain is already groggy, and it is impossible to think rationally at all, and now he is completely relying on anger.

The king shall not be angry and raise up his army!

The current Cao Chao is angry and rejuvenated, and under the anger, he made a series of wrong responses, which finally led to the current result of riding a tiger.

Cao Lin naturally didn't dare to kill the king, he asked more than a dozen of his own soldiers to "protect" the emperor, don't let the emperor appear in front of everyone, don't face each other with swords, and then kill all the way to the front hall of Weiyang Palace.

It was only after entering the palace that Cao Lin breathed a sigh of relief, he first killed all the eunuchs around the emperor, and then put more than a dozen heads beside Cao Chao, and the dozen or so armor soldiers around Cao Chao were still "protecting" him.

Cao Lin's soldiers took over the defense of the palace, which was completely controlled by him, including the emperor's seal and tiger talisman, etc., with these, he could completely control the entire army of Chang'an City.

After Cao Lin received these in his arms, he stepped forward and bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty, the minister is late, and it is the minister's fault to let these traitors threaten you for so long." ”

After being completely controlled by others, Cao Chao finally calmed down, only to feel a burst of cold sweat, and the situation suddenly became like this, he asked in a hoarse voice: "General, why do you want to clear the monarch's side, I have never treated you badly, I am kind to you." ”

Cao Lin was also a little embarrassed, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, why do you want to reuse the Shi clan, the minister doesn't understand this matter. ”

In this situation, the monarchs and ministers were able to speak calmly, Cao Chao stared at Cao Lin and said: "The reason is very clear, because you can't beat Murong Ke, if you don't use the Shi clan, my Great Wei's Guozuo will die in the hands of my Cao Chao." ”

Hearing Murong Ke's name, Cao Lin only felt a faint pain in his chest, as if the injury of the arrow had not healed, and he didn't know what to say to the emperor's words.

Because he really couldn't beat Murong Ke, he even felt scared when he heard Murong Ke's name.

Seeing that Cao Lin didn't speak, Cao Chao knew that Cao Lin was still the Cao Lin he recognized, so what was going on with these things today?

He deliberately asked in a deep voice, "General, are you going to kill me?" ”

Cao Lin's face changed dramatically and he said urgently: "How can Your Majesty think so, the minister is on the side of the Qing monarch, not the king to seize the throne, the minister has never thought of killing you, you are the emperor, how can the minister do it to you?" ”

Cao Chao relieved himself when he heard this, and sure enough, it was Cao Lin who he was familiar with, "General, I never thought of killing you, I just want you to take your title and high-ranking officials to retire, I won't treat you badly, but I didn't expect you to do these things, who made you do this, I believe that you are not such a person, say it, between you and me, you and I can still get along well in the future."

These eunuchs are just some domestic slaves, not worth mentioning, as for those scholars, they will die when they die, anyway, there are many more, I don't care, you are my clansmen, you are my own people. ”

Cao Chao was very interested in the people behind Cao Lin, but he didn't have to know, and the main purpose of his words was to put Cao Lin at ease and let Cao Lin know that he would not pursue his mutiny.

Don't look at Cao Lin now has the advantage, and even Cao Chao's life and death are in his hands, but in this world, the sword has always been controlled by the mind, and Cao Chao still believes that he can turn the tables against the wind.

Just keep yourself calm.

Cao Lin is really not worth mentioning.

Cao Lin listened to Cao Chao's gentle words, and regretted that he had done these things more and more, because he didn't know what to do after that, when his son Cao Chenghei was planning, he only planned here, and he didn't know what to do later.

Hearing what the emperor said, Cao Lin was thinking about whether to give up his son, and when he came to this point, he actually retreated a little.

is really worthy of being called the general of Cao Shuang's second generation!

Cao Chao's senses were quite keen, Cao Lin's hesitation and hesitation were all perceived by him, and a slight smile appeared on his face, "General, I ......"

"Poof!"

The unarmored body was so fragile under the sword, the bloody blade penetrated through the chest, and accurately pierced Cao Chao's heart, his vitality stopped in an instant, he bowed his head in disbelief, and then fell heavily to the ground, a mouthful of blood gushed out of his mouth, and his eyes were still wide open, staring at Cao Lin!

Cao Lin's face was splashed with Cao Chao's blood, and he froze in place, opening his mouth, and the salty blood flowed out of his mouth, and he didn't react.

There seemed to be an infinite sound roaring in my head, like a thunderbolt.

The emperor is dead?

The emperor died in front of him?

I didn't give the order, why did the soldiers kill the emperor?

Who's doing it?

Cao Lin looked up a little stunned, and saw that the soldier who killed the emperor was pressed to the ground by others.

Not many of the people in the hall were his cronies, and there were no outsiders, which made him breathe a sigh of relief, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Cronies?

Which cronie would do that?

That's a king-killing, let your lord bear the infamy of killing kings, is this something that normal subordinates can do?

Cao Chenghe!
