Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

The fake messenger finally returned to Jianye, successfully used his fake identity to sneak in, and met Cao Cao.

But the man was covered in wounds and looked in a mess.

As soon as we met, he said: "Your Majesty, Chen Yang killed all the people around the Fourth Young Master, and now he is under house arrest in Chang'an, and will not let the Fourth Young Master come back. I am risking my life to help the Fourth Young Master deliver a letter, please Your Majesty." Save the fourth son!"

On the way back, he had already received news from Chang'an that the plan to kill Cao Zhi had failed, so they resorted to tricks, changed the follow-up plan, and framed Chen Yang. Anyway, some things were difficult to prove.

"Chen Yang, he dares!"

Cao Cao was furious when he heard it, and soon someone sent the letter to Cao Cao.

What was written above was all about how Chen Yang provoked Cao Zhi, how bad he was to Cao Zhi, and even asked Cao Cao to surrender. After reading it, he was furious and slapped the table.

That person immediately lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything else. He only knew that his goal had been achieved, which was to provoke their anger.

"Your Majesty, why are you angry?"

Xun Yu came in at this time to ask for an audience. He raised his head and saw the anger on Cao Cao's face, and asked in fear, "Did something happen?"

"Make peace, you all said you want to make peace, but Chen Yang never thought about making peace with us."

Cao Cao was furious, and directly crumpled up the letter and threw it in front of Xun Yu.

This matter is actually related to Chen Yang. Xun Yu picked it up and opened it. He was shocked when he saw what was written on it, but after thinking about it deeply, he felt that it was impossible.

"Your Majesty, I feel that Chen Zian would not say such ridiculous things."

Xun Yu arched his hands and said, "Even if he doesn't agree to make peace, he won't kill the Fourth Young Master and put him under house arrest. He has a lot of strength, so there is no need to take the Fourth Young Master as a hostage to threaten us. There must be something wrong with it." .”

After Cao Cao heard this, he felt that it made sense, his expression eased, and his anger disappeared a lot.

What is Chen Yang like? They got along for so long before, and Cao Cao was quite clear. Looking at the fake messenger, he asked, "Is everything you said true?"

The man quickly said: "Of course it is true. I dare not lie to Your Majesty. Now the Fourth Young Master is under house arrest in Chang'an, and he is not even allowed to go out of the room. If it weren't for this, the Fourth Young Master would not have let the minister escape desperately. Come back!" Help Your Majesty."

As he spoke, he knelt down and kowtowed vigorously, revealing his true feelings.

Xun Yu snorted coldly and said, "You say it's true, but it's just what you said. We can't tell the difference. How do we know the truth? Your Majesty, I suggest that you send someone to Chang'an to find out. If it is true, It’s not too late to make a decision.”

Cao Cao's scowl slowly faded, as if contemplating the possibility of doing so.

Seeing his hesitation, the man finally couldn't calm down, and said hastily: "If your majesty doesn't believe me, the only way to prove your innocence is by death. Please hurry up and rescue the fourth son."

After finishing speaking, he slammed his head against the pillar next to him hard, his head was bleeding, and he lost his breath.

As a dead soldier under Sima Yi's command, he didn't have much fear of death, as long as the conditions required him to die, he didn't hesitate at all.

Xun Yu didn't expect that this person was so decisive, yet he felt that something was wrong with him.

It's just that people were all killed, and all the clues were cut off to find out the reason.

"Your Majesty, don't trust him!"

Xun Yu quickly said again.

Cao Cao pondered for a while, and said angrily: "Chen Yang, don't think that I'm really afraid of you, come here, and contact Sima Yi for me!"

"Your Majesty, no!"

"enough!"

Cao Cao shouted loudly: "Zijian has been placed under house arrest, and the person who sent the letter proved it with his death. You still want me?"

Looking at the corpse, he actually believed those nonsense, not to mention that Cao Zhi has not sent any news back, if something went wrong, he would not believe it.

Xun Yu was very anxious, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that there must be something wrong, but he couldn't persuade Cao Cao, so he had no choice but to retreat.

Soon Cao Cao's order was passed on, and Guo Jia and others immediately shouted, "Impossible!"

"Chen Zian will never do this, and he doesn't bother to do it."

Jia Xu frowned and said, "If you stir up a conflict between His Majesty and Zi'an, who will benefit the most?"

"Sima Yi!"

Guo Jia said first.

That's right, there is and only Sima Yi.

"I'm going to find the third son right now, and thoroughly check the identity of the person who sent the letter."

Xu Shu said goodbye to them and walked to the headquarters of the dark guard.

Cao Zhang also got the news, and when he heard what Xu Shu said, he frowned: "Yuan Zhi said that someone is sowing discord between us and Chen Yang?"

"That's right!"

Xu Shu nodded.

"Yuanzhi, don't worry, I will definitely find out his identity."

Cao Zhang promised.

Xu Shu put down his heart, and didn't want the peace that the four of them had single-handedly brokered to be ruined like this.

After watching him leave, Cao Zhang thought deeply, and said calmly after a long time: "Actually, it's not bad that Cao Zhi can't come back in Chang'an. As for the investigation, it's just an identity, and it's not just what I want to do."

He didn't take this matter to heart, and controlled the hidden guards. Many things can be manipulated secretly, turning the real into the fake, and some into nothing.

-

When Cao Cao contacted Sima Yi, Chen Yang of Chang'an was already preparing for the New Year.

Cao Zhi was not as difficult as Cao Cao thought. He could move around freely in Chang'an, even eat and live well. There were no other assassins coming to kill him, and he could go in and out of the palace to find Cao Ning.

Today is New Year's Eve, and Chen Yang even invited him in to have a talk.

"General Chen, I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling. The people I sent back to Jianye have not come back yet, and there is no other news from Jianye."

Cao Zhi said worriedly: "Will father disagree with this condition and give up the peace?"

Calculating the time, a long time has passed, and there is no news from Cao Cao from Jianye, which is really suspicious.

Chen Yang thought for a while and then smiled: "Could it be that he disagrees and will give you up and keep you here as a hostage?"

After thinking about it for a while, Cao Zhi felt that this was the truth again, but he still felt a little uneasy.

"Well, let's wait a few more days. There is really no news. I will send another person to Jianye to take a look."

Chen Yang said: "If you are worried about being unsafe here, you can go back."

If he left Chang'an and went back now, he was thinking that it might be even more unsafe, so he immediately gave up this idea: "It's okay, I can continue to wait, and I will always wait for the result."
