Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

"After my observation.

Two masked men in black clothes just appeared, and I saw them enter Shopkeeper Liu's backyard with my own eyes. "

Cao Ang frowned, unable to figure out the true identities of the two strangers.

"By the way, young master, shopkeeper Liu just said that you will take people to the north of the city to catch the murderer at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."

When Cao Ang heard this, he nodded slightly and said, "I already know about this."

"Then what are you going to do?" Diao Chan asked.

Cao Ang did not answer her question immediately, but asked: "Diao Chan, do you think we should help the government or shopkeeper Liu?"

"Of course it's to help the government." Diao Chan said without hesitation.

Cao Ang smiled and said, "Why?"

"Because we can get more benefits this way." Diao Chan said matter-of-factly.

Cao Ang sighed softly and said: "There is no absolute goodness or absolute evil in this world. Some are kind and some are evil, but kind people are more disgusting than evil people. I would rather choose evil."

"Young Master means."

"Leave this matter to me, you don't need to worry."

"Yes, I will obey the master's instructions." Diao Chan saluted.

"Yes." Cao Ang nodded, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

The next day, early in the morning.

After Cao Ang finished breakfast, he took Xia Houyuan and rushed straight to the north of the city.

As soon as I arrived, I was intercepted.

The leader was a middle-aged man with dark skin and a strong build. He wore a sword on his waist. He stood majestically in the middle of the road and shouted in a deep voice: "Stop! This is the south of the city. No one is allowed to go there."

Cao Ang squinted his eyes and looked at the other person, walked over with a smile, cupped his hands and said: "I am an official of the imperial court, and I have been ordered to capture the wanted murderers. Do you know your surname?"

"Are you an official of the imperial court?" The middle-aged man looked at Cao Ang suspiciously.

Cao Ang's face became serious and he said in a deep voice: "Brother, do you doubt my identity? If so, just search me."

When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately smiled awkwardly.

He was just asking as a routine matter. After all, the mission they accepted was to protect this area and not allow outsiders to enter.

"Sorry, I was rude. Which general does your brother belong to?" The middle-aged man quickly apologized.

"I am a servant of the Han Changhou Mansion, and I was ordered to go to the north of the city to capture the murderer." Cao Ang said.

Of course, he did not tell the other party the real information, but used a pseudonym
"A servant of the Han Changhou Mansion?"

The middle-aged man's eyes flashed, and then he said with a smile: "It turns out that he is a distinguished guest from the Han Changhou Mansion. I am disrespectful and disrespectful. May I ask, Master, when you came to the north of the city to arrest the murderer, did you get any information about the murderer?"

"We haven't found out yet, but I think we will find out soon." Cao Ang said with a smile.

"In that case, please rest for a while, sir. I'll arrange a vehicle to take you to the north of the city right away. How about that?"

"Then it's troublesome, brother."

"Haha, it's just a little effort. Young Master is so polite." The middle-aged man smiled heartily, greeted a few guards, and took Cao Ang and Xia Houyuan to the guest room.

After arriving at the guest room, Cao Ang told Xiahou Yuan to stay outside the door.

And he was sitting on the bed, closing his eyes and concentrating.

About a stick of incense later, there was a knock on the door, followed closely by a middle-aged man's voice: "Sir, is it okay?"

Cao Ang opened his eyes, stood up, walked over, opened the door, and found that besides the middle-aged man, two luxury carriages were parked in the courtyard.

"Sir, please get in the car." The middle-aged man invited with a smile. "Thank you." Cao Ang said gratefully, turned around and entered the carriage.

The interior of the carriage is very spacious, with tea and snacks placed inside, and it is also equipped with four maids, all of whom are young girls.

Cao Ang looked around, was slightly startled, and asked doubtfully: "Are we not going to sleep tonight and have to leave the city overnight?"

"Yes, Shopkeeper Liu has already sent someone to inform County Magistrate Zhao. I believe the government officials will be summoned soon to prepare to capture the culprit." The middle-aged man said with a smile.

Cao Ang suddenly realized, no wonder this guy dragged him to the north of the city early in the morning. He had other plans.

Cao Ang did not refuse, sitting in the carriage and waiting patiently.

Soon after, the street suddenly became noisy and noisy. A group of heavily armed officers and soldiers rushed over, and the leader was none other than Zhao County Cheng.

Seeing Zhao County Cheng, the middle-aged man immediately came up to him and shouted respectfully: "Zhao County Cheng, you are here."

"Yeah." County Magistrate Zhao nodded indifferently, his eyes fell on Cao Ang, and he looked at him carefully for a moment. After confirming that he did not know Cao Ang, he retracted his gaze and asked the middle-aged man, "Who is this?"

"Reporting to County Magistrate Zhao, this person said he was ordered to help capture the murderer." The middle-aged man said respectfully.

A hint of fear flashed deep in Zhao Xian Cheng's eyes, but he suppressed it and said coldly.

"I am the Prime Minister of Zhao County in the east of the city. I am responsible for the security of this place. Come with me."

"Yes." Cao Ang calmly followed Zhao Xiancheng to the place where the government officials were stationed, and pointed at the corpse on the ground.

"Zhao Xiancheng, I was ordered to capture the murderer here, so I came to the north of the city to seek support."

"Hmph!" Zhao Xiancheng snorted coldly and said angrily: "You are quite powerful. You can actually kill the most powerful servant in the east of my city."

"Hehe, this little guy can't hurt me at all." Cao Ang said proudly.

Zhao Xian Cheng's eyes twitched and he secretly cursed an idiot.

"Okay, you have nothing to do here, go away." Zhao County Cheng said disdainfully.

"Yes, Prime Minister Zhao, farewell!" Cao Ang bowed his hands, then returned to his carriage and asked Xia Houyuan to drive the carriage to the west of the city.

the other side

"Sir, how is the situation in the south and east of the city?"

After Cao Ang left, Xia Houyuan hurriedly came over and asked.

Cao Ang shook his head and said: "There are no abnormalities in the south and east of the city, but the scene in the north is a bit strange."

As he spoke, Cao Ang waved his hand to signal Xu Shu to tell.

"No." Xu Shu responded and began to explain in detail.

"Zhao Xiancheng led the government officials from the east of the city to the north of the city, discovered the traces of the bandits, and then captured the bandits.

However, just as everyone was preparing to take the thief back to the east of the city, two masked assassins suddenly appeared, killed several government officials, and rescued the thief. "

"Zhao Xiancheng personally pursued him, but in the end he failed and allowed the thieves to escape."

Xia Houyuan said angrily: "The thieves are really cunning."

Cao Ang also frowned and remained silent.

According to his inference, Zhao Xiancheng and Xia Houyuan's reaction speed should be fast enough and they would definitely be able to capture the bandits.

However, it turns out that he underestimated the strength of these thieves.

Zhao Xiancheng and Xia Houyuan's movements were a step slower.

Cao Ang said solemnly: "These thieves dare to kill officials and must be severely punished."

Xia Houyuan nodded and said in a deep voice: "Leave this matter to me. I will mobilize the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to surround and suppress this group of thieves. I will make sure they never come back." (End of Chapter)
