In the back garden of Sikong Mansion, Mrs. Bian sat alone in the gazebo, holding a needle and thread in her hand, sewing a leather coat for Cao Cao.

Footsteps came from behind her, and they slowly stopped outside the gazebo, and then a gentle voice sounded: "Mother! ”

Mrs. Bian looked back, but it was Cao Zhi standing there, looking at her with a smile.

"Zijian, you're here, come quickly, come and sit next to your mother." Mrs. Bian's voice was filled with pleasure and closeness, and she stretched out her hand to greet Cao Zhi.

Cao Zhi stepped forward quickly, walked to Mrs. Bian's side and sat down.

He saw the leather coat sewn in Mrs. Bian's hand, and asked, "You sewed this for your father?" ”

Mrs. Bian nodded with a smile, with a happy smile on her face: "Yes, the weather is about to turn cold, your father is old, I prepared in advance, so that he will not suffer from the wind and cold in winter." ”

"Mother cares so much about my father, if my father wears this leather coat and feels this affection of my mother, he will definitely treat her more favorably, and you will definitely be more affectionate between you." Cao Zhi said with relief.

Mrs. Bian smiled self-deprecatingly: "I don't ask for any favors, just ask your father and your sons to be safe." Your sons are all older, and they have all moved out on their own, and I can't usually take care of them, so you can only take care of yourself. ”

Speaking of this, Mrs. Bian couldn't help but sigh softly: "Zihuan used to come to see me from time to time, and he didn't come for nearly two months. Ziwen led the troops to battle before, I haven't seen him for three months, and I came back from the expedition, I heard that he was busy doing business for your father to make money, and he hasn't come to see me, and I haven't seen him for almost half a year......"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Bian couldn't help but feel sad, and her mood became more and more depressed.

Cao Zhi made a look of surprise and blurted out: "Mother doesn't know that Brother Zihuan is locked up in the school office?" ”

Mrs. Bian's eyes widened in shock: "What did you say?" Zihuan was locked up in the school office, how could he be locked up, what happened? ”

Cao Zhi panicked and made a speechless look: "No, nothing, I said it in passing!" ”

Mrs. Bian's eyes immediately widened: "By the way, did you say that your brother was imprisoned in the school office?" Is that where good people go? What the hell is going on, you tell me clearly, otherwise you will see how I punish you! ”

Cao Zhi saw that Mrs. Bian was angry, and he didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, and hurriedly told the whole story one by one.

Mrs. Bian was stunned after listening to Cao Zhi's narration: "So that's the case, no wonder neither of them came to see me, I didn't expect such a big event to happen at home, but your father didn't reveal it to me at all." ”

"Maybe my father doesn't want my mother to worry when she finds out, it's my fault, I shouldn't tell my mother, and let my mother worry about this matter." Cao Zhi said apologetically.

"Aren't I in a hurry if you don't say it? The three of you are my sons, who has an accident, I am not worried in my heart, I am not uncomfortable?! Mrs. Bian said sadly.

Although she expected that the three sons would inevitably have a fierce competition for the position of the son, she definitely did not expect that they had evolved to the point of fighting for life and death.

"Then what is Ziwen going to do with Zihuan now?" Mrs. Bian knew that although the relationship between Cao Pi and Cao Zhang was harmonious on the surface, in fact, when Cao Shuo died, conflicts had already broken out, so she was very worried that Cao Zhang would take the opportunity to take revenge on Cao Pi.

"Now Brother Zihuan has been locked up in the school office, and my father handed over the case to Brother Ziwen for trial, but recently Brother Ziwen has been busy opening a money bank, pawnshop and dart bureau for his father, and he has no time to take care of the case, so Brother Zihuan has been locked up."

"What do you mean, Ziwen is going to keep Zihuan locked up like this?" Mrs. Bian faintly felt that something was wrong, she really couldn't figure out why Cao Cao wanted Cao Zhang to deal with this matter, this was not an obvious intention to let them kill each other.

"I don't know about this, I only know that Brother Ziwen arranged for Xiahou Zhongquan to go to Chang'an to find clues two months ago, and he should come back. Maybe he's back, bringing back clues, and he'll be able to come to a conclusion. Cao Zhi pretended to be ignorant and said.

"Do you think he'll be able to find a clue? If you really can't find it, will you keep Zihuan locked up? Mrs. Bian felt more and more that the situation was wrong, and she became more worried.

"Mother, in fact, this is what worries me the most. Originally, Dezu and I recommended Brother Ziwen to investigate this case, because we felt that when he proved his innocence before, he was so wise, and this time he should be able to quickly find clues and find out the truth. We didn't expect that he would investigate for so long, and there was no result. Cao Zhi made a sad look.

"Zijian, then do you think this person who collaborated with the enemy to frame your brother Ziwen will be Zihuan?" Mrs. Bian asked tentatively.

Cao Zhi noticed the change in his mother's face, he walked up to Mrs. Bian and gently held her hand: "Mother, the three of us brothers are compatriots and have grown up together since childhood. I think Brother Zihuan can't do fratricidal things, he should be wronged, I hope from the bottom of my heart to clear his grievances as soon as possible and return his innocence! ”

Speaking of this, he said tentatively to Mrs. Bian: "Mother, I think that you are the only person who can save Brother Zihuan now." ”

"You mean that I should go to your father to intercede? It's useless, your father didn't like Zihuan since he was a child, and since he deliberately hid it from me and didn't let me know about it, he definitely didn't want me to intervene, and it would only backfire if I went to him now. Mrs. Bian was very aware of her relationship with Cao Cao, and directly rejected the idea of interceding with Cao Cao.

"Mother, it's definitely not okay to go directly to my father. But didn't my father hand this matter over to Brother Ziwen's brother to try it? I think if you can have a good talk with him, let him find out the truth as soon as possible, and release Brother Zihuan, he should still listen to you. ”

"After all, we are brothers, I can't bear to watch my two brothers kill each other, and I also hope that the family can still live in harmony, and we brothers work together to help my father achieve great things. So I had the courage to plead with my mother that I could come forward to plead with Brother Ziwen. After Cao Zhi finished speaking, he got up and knelt directly in front of Mrs. Bian.

Mrs. Bian looked at Cao Zhi in front of her, her eyes flashed with emotion and pride, and she hurriedly stretched out her hand to support him: "Zijian, hurry up, you are really sensible and affectionate." I believe in your judgment, I will go to Ziwen to talk to him once, so that he can find out the truth as soon as possible and return Ziwen's innocence. ”

"Thank you mother, with my mother coming forward, I will definitely be able to reconcile the three of our brothers and make the family harmonious." Cao Zhi got up and looked at Mrs. Bian with relief, tears flashing in his eyes.

Mrs. Bian opened her arms with relief and hugged Cao Zhi in her arms, and the mother and son expressed their affection.

Neither of them noticed that at the corner of the corridor in the distance, Cao Cao had been standing there quietly for a long time, and the conversation between their mother and son was all listened to by Cao Cao.

Cao Cao closed his eyes slightly, lost in thought, obviously he didn't expect that the first person to stand up and take action would be Cao Zhi.

Cao Cao looked at Cao Zhi's performance, and his heart was also undecided, with his understanding of Cao Zhi, he knew that he had a simple personality, and the expression just now may be sincere.

Now that Yang Xiu has appeared by Cao Zhi's side after all, Cao Zhi's actions are most likely taught by Yang Xiu, with the suspicion of currying favor with himself.

In any case, Cao Zhi's ability to take the initiative to arrange reconciliation is enough to show that his son is not only talented, but also has a benevolent heart, and understands the importance of flesh and blood affection, which is commendable!

Cao Cao muttered in a low voice: "Ziwen, Zijian has already made the first move, I will see how you deal with and decide!" ”

Cao Cao didn't bother Cao Zhi and Mrs. Bian, and silently turned around and left quietly as he came......
