The most poisonous person in the Three Kingdoms, Boss Cao advised me to calm down!

Chapter 445 Don’t Say Your Father Didn’t Warn You

Cao Zhi's answer was obviously not what Cao Cao expected.

How could a mere statement of not harming the father be a reasonable answer?

Cao Cao was also furious at this time and said:
"You said you would never disobey this intention, could it be that..."

As he spoke, he suddenly pointed his finger at Cao Pi and Cao Zhang.

"Do your two brothers have this intention?"

The three people who were named seemed to skip a beat in their heartbeats!
Even Cao Pi did not hesitate at this moment.

He immediately knelt on his knees and said earnestly:
"Father! I would never dare to have such a rebellious heart!"

When Cao Pi knelt down, Cao Zhi was also stunned!
Then, without thinking, he also knelt down!
"Father, I am the same!"

He couldn't clear himself of suspicion because he lost the token.

In this situation, I feel even more ashamed!

At this time, Cao Zhang, who was standing next to him, was looking at his two brothers who were kneeling on both sides.

He sighed deeply, but showed no intention of kneeling.

First, he was injured, and any big movement at this moment might cause the wound to split.

Secondly, he had a clear conscience, so why should he kneel with these two people?

According to what Sima De specifically told him on the way here.

You must not act with a guilty conscience in any way.

And if at this moment he knelt down out of fear, following Cao Pi's lead.

It will only make my father more suspicious.

Sure enough, Cao Cao looked at Cao Pi and Cao Zhi who suddenly knelt down.

At this time, his expression was complicated and silence prevailed.

Seeing Cao Pi on the sidelines so eager to distance himself from the matter,

I couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

I wondered to myself, could it be that this kid Zihuan was really involved in this matter?

As for Cao Zhang who stood silently, Cao Cao did not have the slightest doubt.

After all, in last night's crisis.

Cao Zhang's performance was impeccable, leaving little room for doubt.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao ignored Cao Pi's self-defense.

But he looked at Cao Zhi with a sharp gaze and said:
"Zijian, if you really want to prove your innocence."

"Then you should give your father a reasonable explanation."

His tone was very calm, yet it seemed to carry a great weight.

When Cao Zhi heard this, he felt bitter.

How can he prove himself now?

Until this moment, he still couldn't remember when he lost his token!

All I know is that he got drunk at a banquet with many wise men in the mansion last night.

When I woke up today, I found myself in the middle of a storm.

Now that the evidence is overwhelming, there is no place to appeal for justice.

Facing his father's scrutinizing gaze, Cao Zhang also gave a bitter smile.

"Father, since you want me to prove my innocence..."

The next moment after he said this, he suddenly drew out the long sword from his waist and placed it across his neck.

The sharp blade gently touched the neck, and blood immediately flowed out.

"At this point, I can only die to show my determination!"

"Father, please believe me. I have never had any intention of disobeying you..."

After he finished speaking, Cao Zhi gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, determined to prove his innocence with his own death.

This scene shocked Cao Cao.

Even Cao Zhang and Cao Pi who were standing next to them were greatly shocked.

"Zijian! What are you doing?!"

Cao Cao's expression suddenly changed, and he wanted to rush forward to grab the sword.

Although he intended to blame his son, he never intended to force his son to death!

When Cao Pi and Cao Zhang saw this, they suddenly reacted.

He hurried forward to stop Cao Zhi who was trying to commit suicide!
However, at the critical moment of Cao Zhi's life.

A figure suddenly jumped out from the screen behind Cao Cao!
The man moved as fast as lightning and grabbed the sword in Cao Zhi's hand!
Then he held the scabbard with his other hand and accurately struck the joint of Cao Zhi's wrist where he held the sword.

At the moment when Cao Zhi's wrist was dislocated.

With lightning speed, he snatched the sword from his hand!

However, that person was very skilled and was unharmed after the whole operation.

Then he even snatched the sharp blade from Cao Zhi's hand. He bowed and handed it to Cao Cao, saying in a steady voice: "My Lord!"

After Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, he took the sword.

The man disappeared behind the screen like a ghost.

All that was left was a faint vibration in the air.

Cao Zhang, who was standing by, was also extremely surprised when he saw this!

His eyes followed the mysterious figure, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes.

In the world today, there are only a handful of experts who can snatch a blade with their bare hands.

The only one who could do this with ease was the long-established Sword Saint Wang Yue.

It was Shi A, Wang Yue’s direct disciple!
And this person happens to be working for his father now.

However, compared to Cao Zhang, he was impressed by this man's extraordinary skills.

On the other side, Cao Pi frowned.

There was a hint of nervousness in his eyes.

At this moment, I couldn't help but wonder if it was because of the unexpected incident last night.

That's why my father specially called Shi A back?
Or is it that Shi A is the same as those clerks?

Has he always been the silent guardian of Cao Cao?
Cao Cao looked at the sword that he had snatched from Cao Zhi.

At this time, his face was gloomy and he threw it aside!
Then he yelled at Cao Zhi, "Asshole!"

He was even so angry at Cao Zhi for not fighting back that he kicked him to the ground.

"Your body and hair are all given by your parents!"

"Have you ever thought about your mother when you act so recklessly?!"

"Do you still want me, as a father, to be accused of suspecting and killing my son?!"

Before he finished speaking, Cao Cao turned around and pulled out a transfer order from the table.

It hit Cao Zhang hard in the face.

"Excessive feasting and drinking, and careless friendships!"

"Immediately place me under house arrest in the fiefdom!"

"From now on, no more drinking!"

"From now on, you are not allowed to enter Yecheng without my summons!"

"Don't even take a step out of the fiefdom!"

After saying this, Cao Cao turned around resolutely, unwilling to look at Cao Zhang again.

The three brothers present understood immediately after hearing their father's decision.

Regardless of whether Cao Zhi was involved in last night's rebellion, innocent or not.

Cao Cao didn't want to pursue his son's guilt anymore.

But at the same time, Cao Cao didn't want to see him again.

This means that Cao Zhi has been kicked out of the Cao family's successor candidate list.

From now on, this talented and romantic man will be confined to his fiefdom.

Unless the future successor of Cao Wei is magnanimous and orders him to return to the capital.

Otherwise, he will not be allowed to step out of his mansion from now on.

This was a great achievement for Cao Zhi, a man of extraordinary talent who loved to make friends with distinguished scholars.

It is undoubtedly the most unacceptable punishment.

However, Cao Zhi faced his father's resolute back.

After a long silence, he kowtowed three times.

"Take care, father! I will take the punishment!"

After saying this, Cao Zhi left resolutely without stopping.

After a long time, Cao Cao slowly turned around.

He glanced at the remaining two sons and spoke calmly:

"Whether or not you were involved in what happened last night, or did anything in between."

"I don't intend to delve into this, but you need to remember this."

"From now on, don't blame your father for not warning you, and don't blame your father for not teaching you and punishing you."

After saying this, Cao Cao walked out the door, leaving behind a message:
"Let's go down and have a rest."

"After dawn, you two will follow your father to Xudu!"

After saying this, Cao Cao had already walked away.

The two brothers behind him both bowed their heads and responded.

Then the two looked at each other and left one after another.
