Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 627 Cao Cao: I can’t be the only one causing trouble!

After hearing what Xi Zhicai said, Cao Cao no longer paid attention to Sima Lang and walked towards Xi Zhicai.

Xi Zhicai and Xun You each held a head and opened the scroll.

Cao Cao stood in the middle of the scroll, scanning the contents.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

Cao Cao's face fell, and he said with trembling lips: "When did my good son-in-law become so powerful?"

“Almost all of Yuan Benchu’s forces are included in him!”

"How many civil and military officials have been added?"

"Chen Gong, Gao Shun, and Liu Xie are all among them!"

Xi Zhicai and Xun You also looked a little unhappy.

Xun You pointed at Yang Xu and Sima Fang in the scroll, glanced at Sima Lang, and then said to Cao Cao in a suppressed voice: "Even the Yang family of Taishan and the Sima family of Henei are among them."

Cao Cao looked at the scroll, and angrily tore it into a dozen pieces, then stomped on it a few times.

His beard stood up angrily.

While stepping on him, Cao Cao roared, "He is threatening me openly!"

"Who gave him the courage?"

"Who gave him the courage!"

Man Chong, Xi Zhicai, Xun You and others were all silent.

Cao Cao stepped on it several times before stopping. He took a few deep breaths and looked at Xun You and said, "Notify Ma Teng, Yan Xing and others."

"After the three-day banquet, I want to meet them in person."

"I've been training for a year, it's time to see results!"

"I want to know when they will be able to play against Hebei!"

Xun You responded and left quickly.

Cao Cao's gaze then returned to the trampled and torn scroll on the ground.

After a while, he calmed down and said to Xi Zhicai, "Zhicai, glue them together again and give them to His Majesty."

"This painting is not only annoying to me, but also annoying to His Majesty."

"Let His Majesty see this painting and let him understand that in this world, besides me, Cao Cao, who else would be kind to him?"

"I, Cao Cao, support him and feed him, but he flirts with other women every day."

"If he is really dissatisfied, I will send him to Yecheng!"

After saying that, Cao Cao slammed his sleeves, turned around and left.

Man Chong looked at Xi Zhicai with some fear and asked silently, "Do you want to check it or not?"

Xi Zhicai said unhappily: "Nonsense, hurry up!"

Man Chong then continued to check all the gifts.

Xi Zhicai squatted down, carefully picked up the torn scroll, and smiled slightly.

Ok, Ok!

Really!

His eyes fell on the torn pieces of the scroll. Zhang Sui was facing the emperor and the empress with a condescending look. Xi Zhicai was secretly amazed.

My vision is indeed good.

As long as he doesn't make any big mistakes, he may not be able to conquer the world, but at least he will be able to share the world with Cao Cao.

As for the other princes, they are just like cats and dogs.

This news should also be told to Zhong Yao, the Inspector of the Imperial Guards who is still in Chang'an.

Good news should always be shared.

Xi Zhicai gathered up the fragments of the scroll, walked to the Shangshutai, and glued the scroll together.

Man Chong also checked all the gifts.

After taking the glued scroll from Xi Zhicai, Xudu Commander Man Chong went directly to see Emperor Liu Xie with the gifts.

Emperor Liu Xie was reading in the imperial study at this time.

Compared to when he was in Hedong, he is thinner.

Especially the eye sockets, which were sunken.

At this time, he was reading various history books.

He is thinking of a way out of his present predicament.

Unfortunately, he had been looking for several years and had not found a solution. Putting down the history book, Emperor Liu Xie rubbed his brow.

The only way now is probably to place hope on Zhang Sui of Hebei.

Although he knew that Zhang Sui was also ambitious.

But if he could let him and Cao Cao fight each other, perhaps he would have a chance of survival.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside, saying, "Your Majesty, Xudu Commander Man Chong wants to see you!"

Emperor Liu Xie's eyes were filled with disgust.

Man Chong was a loyal lackey of Cao Cao's eunuch party.

He was like a canary in the imperial palace, and his main "merit" was the Xudu Ling Man Chong.

Although he was disgusted, Emperor Liu Xie still stood up and said, "Here I come."

Liu Xie walked out of the imperial study.

But on the open space under the stairs outside the door, Man Chong was accompanied by dozens of guards, with dozens of boxes beside them.

Liu Xie made no secret of his dislike for Man Chong. He looked down at Man Chong and asked coldly, "What instructions do you have, my dear Lord Man?"

Man Chong was not angry at Liu Xie's sarcasm, he just smiled.

Inviting Sima Lang to come up, Man Chong said, "Your Majesty, this is Sima Lang, the envoy from Hebei, the eldest son of the Sima family. He is ordered by General Zhang Sui to bring gifts to your majesty and the queen to welcome the new three dynasties."

Liu Xie's expression softened a little and he hurried over to greet him.

Sima Lang was about to bow and said, "Sima Lang greets--"

Liu Xie stopped him from saluting, shook Sima Lang's hand, and said excitedly: "Sima Lang, you are finally here!"

Sima Lang glanced at Liu Xie, his eyes flashing with guilt.

Turning his head aside, Sima Lang did not dare to look at Liu Xie, but said: "Your Majesty, this time the general asked me to bring gifts, including gifts for the queen."

When Liu Xie saw Sima Lang's expression, a glimmer of hope emerged in his heart.

Sima Lang still has some conscience.

Perhaps, he could infiltrate Hebei through the Sima family, and thus provoke the eunuch party of Zhang Sui and Cao Cao in Hebei, let them kill each other, and he would reap the benefits!

Patting Sima Lang on the shoulder, Liu Xie asked his close ministers to go and find Queen Fu Shou.

He then took Sima Lang aside to talk about the history of the Sima family's rise to power in the Han Dynasty.

Not long after, Queen Fu Shou finally arrived.

After paying her respects to Liu Xie, Fu Shou asked coldly, "What is the matter that your majesty wants me to come for?"

Liu Xie was too lazy to even look at Fu Shou.

Women will only drag him down.

Especially when the Yidaizhao broke out, Concubine Dong died tragically in front of him, but the woman in front of him did not suffer any punishment from Cao Cao. He hated this woman deeply.

This woman definitely had an affair with Cao Cao.

Otherwise, how could Cao Cao let her go?
Concubine Dong died.

She deserves to die too!
When I find the opportunity in the future and take control again, I will skin her and Cao Cao's eunuchs together!
Of course, we have to endure it for now!

A spy in the open is better than Cao Cao finding someone else.

Pointing at Man Chong, Liu Xie said calmly: "The general sent some gifts to you from Hebei."

A hint of surprise flashed across Fu Shou's beautiful eyes.

The scenes of herself and Zhang Sui making love emerged in her mind, and a trace of sadness flashed through Fu Shou's heart.

However, she quickly came to her senses and looked at Man Chong.

Man Chong opened the boxes and said, "These were sent by the general's messenger. They are all for your majesty and the queen."

When opening the last wooden box, Man Chong took out two scrolls and said, "According to the envoy, these two scrolls were painted by the general himself."

"One for His Majesty."

"One for the Queen."

After saying that, Man Chong held up a larger volume with both hands and handed it to Liu Xie.

Liu Xie took it with doubts, but did not open it immediately.

Man Chong then brought another scroll to Fu Shou.

Fu Shou looked down at the scroll, his eyes welling up with sadness.

Finally, she took it and said to Liu Xie, "If your majesty has no other instructions, I will go back."

After saying this, he turned around and left with the scroll without waiting for Liu Xie's consent.
