Wang Su rushed to the scene.

The county lieutenant followed behind Wang Su at this moment.

Taishou's work efficiency is extremely high, and he has already been imprisoned after the bundle, waiting for the order of the temple to be issued, and then he can be escorted to the prisoner car and sent to Luoyang.

When he heard the news of Cao Chao's assassination, Wang Su was really frightened.

If something happens to Cao Chao, then his reputation in this life will be ruined.

For people in this era, the purpose of cultivating fame is to become an official, and being an official can continue to cultivate prestige, which is a favorable cycle.

But at the level of Wang Su, raising hope is no longer for the sake of being an official, but for the sake of leaving a name in history and the interests of the clan.

The higher Wang Su's fame now, the more his heirs can be recommended, and a good reputation can protect generations of the family.

And if his reputation stinks and will be left for 10,000 years, I am afraid that one day his heirs will be kicked out of the sequence of the top clans by the rest of the family and fall to the next grade.

Therefore, when he led everyone to rush to the mansion, Wang Su's first thing to look at was not his grandson, but this noble countryman who was concerned about his reputation.

Fortunately, Cao Chao was not injured.

Wang Su's anxious heart finally calmed down.

Then, he looked at his grandson and asked about him.

"I'm fine, it's Your Majesty who protects me..."

Sima Yan whispered, looking at Cao Chao's eyes a little complicated.

At first he just thought the person was weird, too close, and even a little scary.

Later, because of the gap between before and after, he had some pity for him.

Now, he has a good impression of this eccentric countryman in his heart.

Wang Su looked at Zheng Yuan, "Who did it?!" ”

Zheng Hao shook his head, "I really don't know." ”

Cao Chao said with a wry smile: "I have always treated people with sincerity, and I have never had any enemies, I really don't know who wants to attack me." ”

"I don't have any manpower in this house, and if the assassins come again, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop them."

A knight said: "When we heard the sound and entered, we saw a few people covering their faces, fighting with Guo Jun, and when they saw us, they fled in a hurry, they seemed to be very familiar with the surroundings, and they had already made arrangements, we were not familiar with the road, and we could not catch up with them." ”

Sima Yan frowned, "The elite in the army, but they can't even catch a few disgraceful rats?!" ”

The knight pursed his lips and did not speak.

Cao Chao was taken aback, "Familiar with the house?? Could it be a thief? ”

"It can't be the rangers I dismissed, right?"

Wang Su was suddenly speechless.

Why are you still stealing words?

Shouldn't it be up to us to doubt this?

Wang Su instructed: "Send people to search the city, and in addition, leave twenty people behind to protect the noble townsman, and no one must be allowed to harm him." ”

"Thank you, Maharaja!"

Cao Chao hurriedly saluted.

Ever since he wrote to ask for Xiahou Xuan to be rehabilitated, these people no longer dared to call him His Majesty.

Cao Chao feels that this is the biggest achievement he has achieved so far.

Wang Su kept a straight face, just saluted Cao Chao in return, but was unwilling to deal with him.

But Cao Chao obviously didn't want to let go of this good opportunity, he hurriedly said: "Prince, these days, I have been to visit you several times, but I can't get started. ”

"But what have I offended you to make you so angry?"

"When I was young, I took Xiahou Gong, Lanling Chenghou and others as my role models, emulated their conduct, and I also had special respect for you."

"I know that you are a great scholar and have the heart to learn from you, but after you came to Yuancheng, you never gave me a chance to meet."

"Prince, why is this?"

Cao Chao's eyes were full of sadness, and the feeling of being rejected by his idol was vividly interpreted by him.

Wang Su only felt creepy.

It's broken, this shaft is going to break my name!

As a qualified head of a large family, Wang Su is still very sensitive in these aspects, and Cao Chao's words sound like an expression of admiration for himself and sadness that he can't meet.

Actually, it's easy to think of something else.

That is, Wang Su was afraid of rehabilitating the former Shilin leader Xiahou Xuan, so he did not dare to meet Cao Chao.

Of course, this is true, Wang Su really doesn't want to get involved in this matter, but, at least on the bright side, he can't show it, even Sima Zhao has to pretend, let alone him?

"The old minister is terrified."

Wang Su said: "It's not that the old minister refuses to see him, these days, the old minister has been busy with Xiahou's fairness, writing to the temple and informing many relatives and friends, so he couldn't see each other, and asked Cao Gong to forgive his sins." ”

At this time, of course, Wang Su can only express his position.

That's what Cao Chao wanted, and he laughed, "Princess! The virtues of the prince can be the teacher of the world, and I will follow suit! Please bow down to me! ”

"Teacher!!"

Wang Su only felt dizzy for a while, hurriedly coped with a few words, and fled from here.

Sima Yan was counting down the few knights who had failed in their duties.

Zheng Hao stood by Cao Chao's side.

Zheng Hao hesitated, and then said in a low voice: "Townsman, we are stupid, we really don't know who the assassin is, but in the temple, there are many virtuous people, and the general is very wise, he must be able to know." ”

"That's for the best! If the general knows, he will definitely be able to catch the real murderer for me! I'm worry-free too! ”

Cao Chao said happily.

Zheng Hao was speechless for a moment, and after saying goodbye to Cao Chao, he left here with Sima Yan.

After they all left, Cao Chaofang followed Guo Zhi into the inner room.

As soon as he walked into the inner room, Guo Zhi had a straight face and said very sternly: "Lord! ”

"Huh?"

"Such a deceitful villain's method really shouldn't be what a gentleman can do."

"A gentleman is frank, why do you do such a thing?"

"I can't do it because of your orders, but I will never do such a thing again."

Cao Chao laughed, "How can this be considered a tricky method?" ”

"This is an upright method, you don't think the people of the Sima family can't see it, right?"

"Even Wang Su can see that this crude method can deceive people like Sima Yan and my uncle."

"I'm not afraid he'll be able to see it, though."

"It's not who sent the assassins that matter, it's what happens if I die."

"Even if that Sima Shi doesn't care about reputation at all, he still has to consider the consequences of my death now, right?"

"Besides, Sima Shi is a very terrifying person, and my ordinary methods are afraid that I can't shake him, so we have to keep giving him fierce information to make him uneasy!"

"Thinking that the Sima family wants to kill me now, but they don't dare to kill me, and they have to carefully send someone to protect me, I feel very happy in my heart!"

"Zishou, my Cao family may not be right to win the country, but it also has its own style, this half of the country was beaten down by my great-grandfather!"

"And the prosperity of the north today was created by my grandfather and uncle!"

"We are different from the Sima family, we are not rats who only know how to deceive!"

"I have always been frank in doing things, Xiahou Xuan's affairs, resignations, including today's assassination, everything, I am not afraid that others will know the reason."

Guo Zhi asked: "But what if the Sima family is forced to be anxious, and they ignore these and insist on killing you?" ”

Cao Chao looked at him and blinked.

"Guo Jun, do you know what the biggest flaw of the rats who only know how to deceive is?"

"Please let me know."

"They have no contribution to the society, and everyone is only around them because of fear or interests, and they are unpopular and unpopular, so they have never been able to completely control them."

"It's easy for them to kill me, but after killing me, they'll have to be able to deal with the rest of the situation."

"Wait, the impact of this matter is far from so simple."

After this incident, the lives of the two monarchs and ministers returned to the past, the difference was that there were more knights in the palace to protect them.

Cao Chao was a man who did not want to be idle, and he talked to these knights every day, inviting them to come and dine with him.

Of course, the knights didn't dare to get close to him, and deliberately kept their distance, but they couldn't stand Cao Xian's words, but they were still familiar with him after all.

Although they are still very cold, Cao Chao has a certain understanding of them.

For example, the head of these knights was also the first knight to knock on the door.

His name is Cheng Ji.

It's the younger brother of the general.

At present, he serves as the cavalry governor of the general palace of Zhengxi, and commands the knights in the palace.

ps: The collection is already 67,000, I don't know if it can exceed 100,000 before it is put on the shelves, this result is much better than I expected when I first opened the book, full of motivation!
