Chapter 122 The old man is here

Under Cao Zhang's glaring gaze, Cao Zhi's answer was concise and sharp: "Second brother, if it wasn't such a big deal, how could I dare to bother you? Big brother... ugh!"

His sigh convinced Cao Zhang that indeed, that bastard Cao Zihuan had really bowed his head to the little emperor! Isn't that embarrassing for him!

According to Cao Zhi, the reason why Cao Pi was invited by the little emperor was because he bowed to Liu Xie by borrowing from the previous spring search. If he hadn't admitted his mistake and apologized, how could Meng San be released so easily and suddenly?

You have been bullying me for so many years. Now that he has finally found something, he has no reason to give up easily. Also, a few days ago, early in the morning, Cao Pi visited the palace in person, although he did not know about him. What has been done, but when the two are connected, it is not difficult to interweave a picture.

Although Cao Zhang was settled in his heart, his many years of experience in leading troops made him want to make one last insurance call: "Even though you said that, kid, why do you mean to stir up trouble? I know you and Zihuan won't deal with you. You can’t stab someone in the back.”

"Second brother!"

Cao Zhi was anxious on his face, but he was happy in his heart. Based on his understanding of him, the silly old man had already believed him. At the moment, he was just a stubborn duck: "You are right, I am indeed because of the school affairs office." I have a disagreement with my eldest brother about something, but we are brothers, how could I stab him in the back? That is not what a gentleman would do!"

"……knew."

Cao Zhang took a deep breath and snorted: "I didn't expect that Zihuan would become a weakling. But what good would it do to him? That little emperor is a puppet. He can't help at all. He only wants to cause trouble. That’s it!”

"My younger brother couldn't figure it out either, so I invited my second brother here."

After Cao Zhi said this, he just sat down. He originally planned to take a sip of tea to moisten his throat, but after looking at the teapot and then at Cao Zhang, he finally gave up the idea.

"I don't know how to deal with it, please give me some advice."

"Click the ass."

Cao Zhang rolled his eyes at him: "If Zihuan is willing to do it, let him do it."

"No."

Seeing that he was a coward with a clueless mind, Cao Zhi took a deep breath and revealed what was in his mind: "Second brother, have you ever thought about how, if you let the eldest brother do this, let alone other things, how will the authority be distributed in the future? Right now, you and I, the three brothers. Among people, you are the second brother with the greatest military power. This is your father's preference, and it is also the little emperor's nod. Now the eldest brother has gone to befriend the emperor. When you are transferred to official positions in the future, even if your father intends to promote you, the emperor will not nod. , this policy won’t work, doesn’t my second brother understand? No matter what my father says, he is a Han official!”

"..."

What Cao Zhi said was enough to kill him a hundred times, but the effect was very good. This time, it was Cao Zhang's turn to say nothing. Indeed, what he said made sense. He also knew his father's attitude towards the emperor, so what Cao Zhi said made sense. It's not impossible.

But, so what?

There are only two ways to solve the problem. The first is to be a licking dog like Cao Pi, or to punish the little emperor and let him take the initiative to alienate Cao Pi.

But none of these two things work!

After hesitating for a moment, Cao Zhang kicked the ball back to him: "Lao San, what do you think we should do? You came to me, you don't have any ideas at all, right?"

"Of course."

Cao Zhi also realized that he had thought wrong before. If he expected him to give any constructive suggestions, he might as well ask a dog!

But it’s okay, they don’t have anything in their minds, so they can just follow their instructions. Cao Zihuan, Cao Zihuan, from now on, you have to face us with both our culture and our martial arts. Let’s see if it’s our own brothers who are better

Awesome, your little emperor is still useful!

Only the two of them knew about Cao Zhi's plan, but when Cao Zhang left the school affairs office, it was obvious that his eyes were shining!

The next day.

During the banquet last night, Liu Xie clearly remembered the moment of joy and surprise when Cao Pi got the sword, and kept asking himself where it came from.

Of course it was impossible to tell the truth, so Liu Xie deduced that it was chosen from the queen's dowry. Cao Pi didn't say anything at the time, but he didn't expect it. He had just had breakfast, and trouble started!

Liu Xie had just put down his chopsticks. The minced meat this morning was very delicious. Just when he was savoring it, Liu Jin bowed and came closer to announce: "Your Majesty, my father-in-law is here."

"who?"

Liu Xie was very surprised, and Liu Jin said again: "It's the father-in-law of the country."

Damn it, my father-in-law?!

What is he here for?

Taking a deep breath and full of doubts, he stood up and went to greet him in person. After all, he was his father-in-law. Even for the sake of his wife's face, he should do this.

When he arrived outside the gate of Changxin Hall, he was dressed in a brocade embroidered robe, with his long beard fluttering after he had bowed down. He stood still and waited like a javelin. When he saw him coming, he hurriedly said hello: "My lord, after bowing down, I will see your majesty!"

"Father-in-law, no gift."

This was a private moment. Liu Xie couldn't let him kneel down, so he quickly reached out to hold him up: "Father-in-law, you're welcome. Come on, let's go in and talk."

"good."

Fu Wan nodded and followed him expressionlessly.

Entering the Changxin Hall, Liu Jin was busy arranging fruit snacks, while Liu Xie sat across from him and sipped tea: "I wonder why my father-in-law is here this time?"

"His Majesty."

Fu Wan took a deep breath and his eyes became more serious: "Originally, I didn't want to come, but I have no choice. There is something I hope your Majesty will clarify."

"Father-in-law, please speak." Liu Xie looked at him with a smile.

He didn't even smile at all, and was as solemn as a stone: "Your Majesty gave the eldest son a gift yesterday?"

"Exactly."

"Your Majesty, can you say that the item was chosen from the Queen's dowry?"

Liu Xie nodded: "That's exactly it."

At this moment, his expression became much more indifferent. Although he did not have a close relationship with Fu Wan, according to the book, he was very energetic when he was young, but the older he got, the less energetic he became. Although he did not collude with Cao Cao, he would never do it.

Disobey others.

Listening to what he said, it was obvious that Cao Pi had found him and asked about the sword. My father-in-law, did you let me know?!

Thinking of this, Liu Xie's heart sank and his eyes flashed.

Although Fu Wan lowered his head, he kept looking at him from the corner of his eye. Seeing this, he couldn't help but sigh to himself, as expected, my little son-in-law is really good at causing trouble. You said that it was not good, but you said that thing is mine!

Both sides were silent, and Liu Xie was even more uncertain. Fortunately, at this moment, Fu Wan suddenly spoke: "Your Majesty, although you are the emperor, you are also my son-in-law. I will say some things, so please don't be angry."

"Please ask my father-in-law for advice."

After bowing and nodding, he shook the tea cup in his hand and said in a quiet voice: "First of all, if your Majesty wants to give a gift to someone, you should find one that suits you. You should not tell the origin of the item, at least not pass it on to others. Secondly... it has been used.

Isn’t it a bit too rude to say that you don’t have any reputation in someone else’s name?”
