After hearing what Man Chong said, Cao Cao's originally displeased expression began to slowly ease, he showed a smile, looked at Man Chong, and said to Man Chong: "I'll leave this matter to Boning, remember.
Live, we must let Bian Rang plead guilty willingly."
"My subordinate knows it.
My lord, you can rest assured.
I will definitely use my own means to make sure Bian Rang pleads guilty.
I am absolutely willing to do so."
Man Chong looked at Cao Cao and said to himself with a smile on his face.
After hearing Cao Cao's words, He also showed a trace of evil smile and said affirmatively to Cao Cao.
"That's good, that's good."
After hearing Man Chong's firm answer, Cao Cao touched his beard and said with some satisfaction.
"Military advisor, you went back to Yingchuan to visit relatives and friends.
What did you gain?"
Cao Cao turned his eyes from Man Chong to Xi Zhicai who was standing aside.
He looked at Xi Zhicai, who was lowering his head and thinking about something. asked.
When Xi Zhi heard Cao Cao calling him, he immediately came to his senses.
Then he bowed slightly and saluted Cao Cao and said, "I visited an old friend.
However, my old friend has not completed his studies, so he refused for the time being."
Suggestions from subordinates” "Sure enough, all talented people have their own arrogance.
Forget it, with Xi Zhicai by my side, the world will be prosperous."
After hearing Xi Zhicai's words, Cao Cao's expectant face suddenly sank, helpless.
He looked at Xi Zhi and smiled, then said comfortingly.
"My lord has been praised too much.
I made an agreement with my old friend that as long as he succeeds in his studies, he will come to join my lord at that time.
Don't worry, my lord, this man is ten times more talented than me."
Xi Zhicai listened to Cao Cao's words and was humble.
He shook his head, looked at Cao Cao's declining eyes, and said to Cao Cao.
"Mr.
Cao, Gong Cao" suddenly a scribe broke in from outside and shouted to Cao Cao.
Everyone must have taken a look and found out that it was Chen Gong who was persuaded by Cao Cao to go back.
"Gongtai" Cao Cao looked a little embarrassed.
Chen Gong was his benefactor.
He was the one who helped Cao Cao take control of Yanzhou, but Cao Cao was still wary of him because he and Cao Cao were not the same people, and the person he really served was not Cao Cao, but the Yanzhou gentry behind him.
"Cao Gong, I heard that you arrested Bian Rang.
Gong is here to beg Cao Gong to let Bian Rang go."
Chen Gong saw Cao Cao's embarrassment and said quickly to Cao Cao.
"Mr.
Gongtai, how dare you collude with Xuzhou Tao Qian to seize my lord's Yanzhou?
This is treason."
Man Chong listened to Chen Gong's words, then looked at the embarrassed Cao Cao aside, and quickly stood up for Cao Cao. argued.
"Man Boning, you still have the nerve to say that, if it weren't for your torture, how could Mr.
Bian Rang have surrendered?"
Chen Gong listened to Man Chong's defense to Cao Cao, and immediately directed all his anger at Man Chong, pointing.
Man Chong's nose pointed at Man Chong and cursed.
"Mr.
Gongtai, you'd better stop making trouble.

These are all settled matters.
No matter what you say, it's true that he colluded with Tao Qian to frame the lord.
Besides, if he hadn't done this, he would have done it again.
How come you can't even stand such a simple criminal law and just commit the crime?"
Man Chong looked at Chen Gong's angry face, but he was not angry and said to Chen Gong shamelessly.
"Gongtai, this is all true.
Please stop making unreasonable troubles here."
Cao Cao finally made up his mind and looked at Chen Gong and said firmly.
"I understand, my subordinate is resigning temporarily."
Chen Gong looked at Cao Cao's firm expression and sighed helplessly, with a hint of resentment in his eyes.
After thinking for a moment, he had no choice but to retreat.
"Lord, I heard that Chen Gongtai has a good relationship with Bian Rang.
Should you arrest Chen Gongtai and interrogate him?"
Man Chong watched Chen Gong retreat without saying a word, and asked Cao Cao with a serious face.
"Forget it, Chen Gongtai, he is not such a person.
Even if he is kind to me, how could I harm him?"
After hearing Man Chong's words, Cao Cao shook his head and said in a melancholy tone.
Man Chong saw that Cao Cao had said this, so he sat back obediently, closed his mouth, and said nothing.
"Lord, you still have to think twice."
Mao Jie hesitated after hearing Cao Cao's words.
He felt that Cao Cao was doing something inappropriate and said to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao looked at Mao Jie and shook his head.
He looked again and saw Xi Zhicai and Cao Hong standing next to them and said to them.
"There will be a banquet later, you two should stay and have something to eat."
"Yes."
After hearing this, Cao Hong and Xi Zhicai saluted Cao Cao slightly and responded in a sincere tone.
Especially, there was a smile on Cao Hong's face.
"Zilian, go back and copy the Six Tao Tao to me ten times."
Cao Cao saw Cao Hong's slight expression and said to Cao Hong with a smile.
"It's brother."
Cao Hong's originally happy face suddenly turned into a bitter one, but what could he do to resist?
He couldn't resist, so he had to accept Cao Cao's punishment obediently.
Two hours later, Chen Liu entered a remote house.
Several people entered intermittently.
They were well-dressed and it was impossible to tell who they were.
"Mr.
Wentai, is there any news?"
I saw several seats surrounding the hall.
Chen Gong was sitting at the main seat.
A man walked in from the outside and looked at the burning brazier in the room.
He took off his tightly wrapped coat and said, His face was revealed, and he was probably in his forties, with a slightly chubby face.
His identity must not be underestimated.
This man is Xu Si, the head of the Xu family, the most powerful among the Yanzhou noble clan.
Soon after, several more people came one after another.
When they entered the hall, they took off their disguises and revealed their identities.

Most of them are from Yanzhou's aristocratic families, such as Wang Kai, the head of the Wang family.
Of course, there are also some officials who are more disgusted with Cao Cao, such as Zhang Miao's younger brother Zhang Chao.
As soon as they entered the house, they asked Cao Cao about his treatment of Bian Rang, but Chen Gong remained silent and did not answer them.
"Mr.
Gongtai, what exactly does Cao Mengde want to do with Mr.
Bian Rang?"
Zhang Chao looked at Chen Gong's silent expression and then saw that everyone was already here, so he quietly asked Chen Gong.
"Cao Mengde, I have already seen him.
It seems that Mr.
Bian Rang is in serious danger."
Chen Gong looked at the group of people below and said with a very painful expression.
"Then Cao Cao is really bullying people.
He should not have been allowed to take over Yanzhou in the first place.
Since this guy took over Yanzhou, he has been weakening the influence of our noble family.
Since he has abandoned our noble family and selected those poor people to become Officials, now, All the important positions in Yanzhou are controlled by Cao Cao's people.
I really regret it."
Zhang Chao looked very unhappy after hearing that success, and then said to everyone, since Cao Cao took over Yanzhou and captured his brother Chen Liu, the prefect Zhang Miao. rights.
Now Cao Cao actually wants to kill Bian Rang, a famous scholar in Yanzhou Dingding.
This made brothers Zhang Chao and Zhang Miao feel scared and vigilant.
"This Cao Cao is just too much of a bully.
Otherwise, if we turn against him, the worst we can do is fight to the death."
Xu Si, the head of the Xu family, nodded after hearing Zhang Chao's words.
Originally, many of the Xu family's descendants served as officials in Yanzhou.
Since Cao Cao entered After taking over Yanzhou, he sent these children back home, which seriously affected the survival of the Xu family.
When other people heard what he said, they all nodded and agreed with his point of view.
Anyway, all the aristocratic families have some strength and their own army of guards, so they are not afraid of Cao Cao at all.
"I don't think it's appropriate."
At this moment, Chen Gong finally spoke.
He looked at everyone's indignant looks and shook his head.
"Mr.
Gongtai, if there is something wrong, you might as well tell me and listen."
Zhang Chao looked at Chen Gong shaking his head and looked towards him.
Zhang Chao knew that success is a resourceful counselor.
If he said there was something wrong, then he must is inappropriate.
"Cao Cao's soldiers are all good at fighting.
I'm afraid your family's private soldiers are no match for them.
Besides, Cao Cao occupies the nominal power.
If we rebel, we will be at a disadvantage.
If we suddenly rebel now, our chances of winning will be even higher."
There are no floors yet, we need to wait and wait for the opportunity."
Chen Gong's eyes flashed with wisdom, looking at the heads of the noble families below, he said to them with confidence
