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

The man in black came to Tian Kai. Tian Kai bowed and said, "Thank you for saving me."

"General Tian, ​​you are too polite. We are acting on the emperor's orders." said a younger man in black.

"General Tian, ​​you have been kind to us in Jiangxia over the years, and we naturally want to repay you. General Tian, ​​please come with us." said another man in black.

"Then I'll trouble you all." Tian Kai did not refuse. He led his men to follow the group of men in black and disappeared into the night.

Li Gui returned to Luoyang, found Liu Yu and explained the situation.

Liu Yu frowned. It turned out that Tian Kai had such a powerful background. That would be troublesome.

"My lord, we must treat the Tian family case with caution. I suspect that Tian Kai was instructed by Zhang Ji to do this.

I suggest that the head of the Tian family be brought to the palace immediately and let Zhang Ji judge the case." Li Gui analyzed.

"Zhang Ji? Does he really dare?" Liu Yu asked.

Li Gui shook his head and said, "Zhang Ji certainly wouldn't dare. But it's hard to guarantee that Yuan Shao will be behind Zhang Ji."

Liu Yu nodded. Zhang Ji really didn't dare to do that. He was afraid of implicating himself.

"I understand. You can leave first." Liu Yu waved his hand, signaling Li Gui to leave.

Li Gui stepped back, thinking that this matter was becoming increasingly complicated.

Cao Ang summoned Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Ju Shou, Chen Qun and Pang Tong to discuss the matter.

"My lord, what are you going to do?" Xun Yu asked.

Cao Ang hesitated for a moment and said, "The head of the Tian family is my right-hand man. I must not give up on him."

Chen Qun said: "My Lord, I think we need to consider this carefully. The head of the Tian family is committing treason, which is a serious crime.

The Tian family will certainly suffer. If the lord intervenes forcefully, it may lead to more serious consequences. I think there are other ways to deal with it. "

Cao Ang looked at Chen Qun with admiration.

"My lord, I think we can use Zhang Ji." Ju Su proposed a method.

Everyone looked at Ju Shou, hoping that he would continue speaking.

Ju Su said: "Zhang Ji is ambitious and timid.

As long as you can grasp Zhang Ji's weakness, he won't dare to disobey."

"Ju Qing's words make sense, but what exactly is Zhang Ji's weakness?" Cao Ang asked.

Ju Su said: "The Tian family is the second largest family in Beihai State. If Zhang Ji wants to become the governor, he has to win over the Tian family.

Therefore, the relationship between them must be very close. If the lord can get hold of Zhang Ji's handle, he can force Zhang Ji to submit.

Then the Tian family's rebellion will collapse on its own. As for Tian Feng, you may as well give him a try, and perhaps you will gain something."

Cao Ang made the decision and said, "In that case, let's do as Lord Ju wishes.

Wenhe, you are responsible for contacting Zhang Ji. Make sure to arrest Tian Feng. "

"I obey your order!" Pang Tong agreed.

"Gongda, immediately send a carrier pigeon to Yecheng to convey my message to Tian Feng.

I want Tian Feng to arrive in Luoyang before noon tomorrow." Cao Ang instructed Xun Yu.

"Yes, my lord!" Xun Yu agreed.

"Yuanzhi, I remember you have a son who is seventeen years old this year, right?" Cao Ang suddenly asked.

Xun Yu was startled and replied hastily: "My lord, my son is studying in Chang'an."

Cao Ang said with satisfaction: "You are a good child. You can have dinner with me tonight. I will let your son enter the palace tomorrow."

"My lord is merciful!" Xun Yu was extremely excited. It was his dream that his son could gain the favor of his lord.

"Okay, everyone go down and get ready." Cao Ang waved his hand.

"I'll take my leave!" They all left. Cao Ang sat on the throne for a long time without saying a word. He was very confused.

Originally, Tian Kai committed many evil deeds in history, but unfortunately Liu Xie was blinded by the Tian family.

The Tian family's influence spread throughout the imperial court, and Liu Xie had no control over the Tian family at all.

After Liu Xie ascended the throne, he turned his attention to other families, causing the Tian family's strength to expand rapidly and become a behemoth.

This eventually led to the Tian family's rebellion and the seizure of the Han Dynasty.

But Cao Ang has now changed history. Tian Kai did not commit any crime and did not even participate in the rebellion.

Cao Ang was concerned about whether Tian Kai should be eliminated. This involved Cao Ang's bottom line, and Cao Ang did not dare to make a decision easily.

Cao Ang felt that he should not kill Tian Kai now, because killing Tian Kai would affect the entire battle situation.

If the Tian family takes the opportunity to revolt, the world will be in chaos.

But if we don't kill him, the Tian family will bring disaster to the world.

Cao Ang was caught in a dilemma.

If Cao Ang wanted to change history, he must first seize power, whether it is the court or the army, he must be under his control.

The threat posed by the Tian family was already great, and Cao Ang was worried that they would rebel if they were not curbed.

"Forget it, let's not think about it so much for now. Let's talk about it tomorrow." Cao Ang decided to wait for a while.

"My lord, Lord Li Ru has sent a secret report." Huang Die walked in with a secret letter.

"Show it up!" Cao Ang reached out and took the secret letter.

"Li Ru?" Cao Ang felt strange. Li Ru shouldn't be here.

"Open it and take a look!" said Cao Ang.

Huang Die opened the secret letter and muttered, "My lord, Master Li Ru said that the matter of Tian Kai will be handed over to him."

"Haha, it's finally my turn to help him. He is worthy of being my favorite general!" Cao Ang laughed.

As soon as Li Ru heard this, he knew that Cao Ang was going to help him. This time he didn't have to rely on his own abilities.

"Come here, pass on my oral order. Li Ru has made great contributions and is promoted to General of Cavalry, and is appointed Minister of the Chancellery. He is also granted a thousand acres of fertile land and a hundred beautiful women." Cao Ang ordered.

"Thank you, my lord!" Li Ru knelt down excitedly. He had been waiting for Cao Ang to say this.

"Stand up!" said Cao Ang.

"I obey your order!" Li Ru stood up.

"Li Ru, I'm very pleased that you were able to complete the task so quickly. I believe that with my support, you will be able to succeed." Cao Ang encouraged.

"Thank you, my lord!" Li Ru was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

Li Ru returned to Yecheng, the capital of Jizhou, with a hundred guards escorting a hundred beautiful maids.

These maids were specially selected by Li Ru to serve as concubines in his mansion.

After Li Ru returned to Yecheng, the first thing he did was to find Yuan Tan.

After the two chatted for a while, Yuan Tan showed an expression of envy and jealousy and said, "Uncle, you are so lucky. You actually met the lord."

"Hmph! This is what we call great minds think alike!" Li Ru said proudly.

"That's true, uncle, you are a wise man." Yuan Tan complimented.

Li Ru said modestly: "No, no! I am still far behind Meng Yan."

Yuan Tan thought to himself, Cao Ang is so powerful, and you actually say you are not as good as him. You are really shameless.

"Uncle, the lord intends to let your nephew enter the palace. I wonder what the plan is?" Yuan Tan asked.

"My Lord, your grace is so great. How can I refuse? Tomorrow I will let my nephew enter the palace to meet you." Li Ru replied. (End of this chapter)
