Three Kingdoms: The rebellion was eavesdropped by Cao Cao

Chapter 649 If you want people to know nothing but yourself
"Father... Father, this is the glass cup!"

Cao Pi held the brocade box tremblingly, and tried his best to present the gifts in the brocade box to Cao Cao perfectly!
Cao Cao shrank his sleeves at this time, stretched out his hand and took out one of the goblets inside, held it carefully in his hand and looked at it carefully, murmuring:
"Is this the glass that the dog said in his diary?"

"Father... what did you say, father?"

Cao Pi thought he heard it wrong, but his father called him a dog?

Cao Cao quickly put away his murmurs, his face returned to indifference again, he coughed lightly and said:

"Is this thing brought from Sima Yi's residence?"

Cao Pi nodded honestly, "Yes, father!"

Cao Cao asked again, "This Sima Yi, where did he get this plaything from?"

Seeing that Cao Cao was really interested in the so-called glass cup, Cao Pi breathed a sigh of relief, and then said:

"Returning to my father, it is said that it was given to him by an old friend of Master Sima in Hanzhong!"

"Hanzhong?"

After Cao Cao heard this, the tense gloom on his face dissipated a lot in an instant. It seems that this shriveled kid has finally told himself the truth once!

Cao Pi didn't know what happened, but felt that when his father heard him speak Hanzhong words, the murderous aura that had been concealed on him disappeared inexplicably!

Is there an old friend of my father in Hanzhong?
Just when Cao Pi was full of doubts, Cao Cao's indifferent voice came again,
"Pi'er, you received this kind of heart for your father, and you also received the gift for your father, but..."

Speaking of this, Cao Pi's heart only felt a thud!
"One yard counts for one yard. My father will give you another chance at the end. You recruited it truthfully. Have you colluded with Huang Kui to murder my father?"

Word down!

Cao Cao's eyes exuded unprecedented fierceness, and the oppressive feeling of Mount Tai's pressure instantly eroded Cao Pi's whole body!
"Do you really think that my father is tempting you? If you don't come here today, my father will kill you!!"

Puff!
Cao Pi was so frightened by the sudden killing intent that his face paled instantly, and he knelt down on the ground again!

"Father...Father, my son! My son swears to God! There is absolutely no collusion with Huang Kui! Father, please check clearly!!"

Cao Cao stared at Cao Pi who was kneeling on the ground, the sharpness in his eyes never faded away!
This time!
He stared at Cao Pi for a quarter of an hour without letting up!
And Cao Pi was also under such strong pressure, he never raised his head and spoke!
When the two were at such a stalemate, Xun Yu on one side spoke!
"My lord, I have something to say, I don't know if I should say it or not?"

Only then did Cao Cao look away, "Speak!"

Xun Yu hurriedly stood up and cupped his hands, "My lord, according to what I see, it is Huang Kui who knows that his crime is unforgivable, so he wants to use your temper to confuse the public, plant false accusations, and make your family mess up! "

"Think about it, last night when the soldiers rose in the city, it was the Second Young Master who took the lead to bring troops to support him. Today, it was the Second Young Master who was afraid that you would be frightened, so he went to Mr. Sima's house to ask for this glass cup to calm you down. This filial piety , It’s hard to find it through the ages, and it’s just a thief’s confession, so it’s a bit inappropriate to suspect that the second son has such a rebellious mind!”

Hearing this, Cao Pi's whole body trembled, and his gaze towards Xun Yu was full of gratitude!

When Cao Cao heard Xun Yu defending him, for some reason, he was suddenly relieved!

Immediately afterwards, he pretended to ponder for a while, and said:

"Well, what Wen Ruo said is reasonable, it's the truth that's making me angry!"

When Cao Pi heard this, he almost cried, and quickly kowtowed:
"Father is wise! Father is wise! Lord Xun..."

Before finishing speaking, Cao Cao interrupted:

"Although this is the case, the investigation must not be slack at this time. Pier, I will trust you once for my father, but once my father finds out that you have secretly communicated with Huang Kui, then my father... will definitely be merciless. cut you off!"

Cao Pi trembled and knelt on the ground without saying a word!
Seeing this, Cao Cao put away the brocade box in front of him, waved and said:

"You can give this glass cup to my father, it can be seen that you put your heart into it. If there is no this glass cup for what happened today, my father would not let you go so easily. I hope you can set an example in the future and be a good person." Look like a big brother, do you understand?"

"Listen... I understand! The boy obeys!"

Cao Pi only felt relieved, his legs were weak, but he didn't dare to raise his head to face Cao Cao!

"Before I leave! One more word for my father!"

Cao Cao's eyes returned to the chessboard again, and said indifferently:
"If you want others not to know unless you can do nothing, step back!"

Cao Pi's whole body trembled violently. This time, he slowly raised his head and looked at Cao Cao with a terrified and unbelievable look!

However, it was only for a moment before he looked away, and his hair was beaten down to cover his face, so he couldn't see his expression clearly!

"Baby...retire!"

"Ok!"

Cao Cao pondered for a while, and then stopped talking to him!
After Cao Pi left, there was only the sound of chess playing in the room!

After an unknown amount of time, Xun Yu finally couldn't help asking:
"My lord, Huang Kui is obviously biting his comrades, you...why do you want to scare the second son like this?"

With his wisdom, he couldn't see that Huang Kui just wanted to confess indiscriminately, and took advantage of Cao Cao's suspicious temperament to drag Cao Pi into the water and take revenge on Cao Cao!
Cao Pi is completely innocent!
Even he knows this, it is impossible for Cao Cao not to know!
But Cao Cao's behavior is so true that he doesn't quite understand it!

When Cao Cao heard his question, he didn't answer immediately, but his originally clear eyes became cloudy, as if he had aged instantly!

Seeing this, Xun Yu didn't know why, but Cao Cao didn't want to say it, so he couldn't keep asking!
The two played chess like this for a long time. Suddenly, after Cao Cao dropped a piece, he said:

"Wen Ruo, if one day, your elder son poisoned your younger son in order to compete for the position of the eldest son, would you forgive your elder son?"

Hearing this, Xun Yu's hand trembled just as he was about to put down the chess piece, and he stared at Cao Cao in disbelief, his eyes full of fear!

"I... I am, I am... I don't know!"

Cao Cao was not surprised when he heard his answer, he just laughed at himself and said:
"I, Cao Cao, have been a soldier all my life, serving the country and the people, but people call me a traitor. Sometimes, I really don't know what will become of me in the future, so those who can inherit my position must not be weak. Wen Ruo, you Do you understand?"

Xun Yu couldn't help swallowing his saliva, and his mind suddenly came to his senses!
It turns out that the lord...is just screening candidates?
Seeing that he was silent, Cao Cao took out the glass from the brocade box and said with a smile on his face:

"Let's not talk about that, the matter of Huang Kui, let's stop here, Wen Ruo, guess who made this thing?"
