Li Xiong held the arrow and aimed it at my vital parts! I silently waited for death to come. I closed my eyes, but in my heart, I couldn't completely say that I was being magnanimous, because I didn't want to die. I couldn't bear to part with my newly-wed wife and young children, but I couldn't hurt my brothers! " "Ahhh!" A miserable scream! Then blood splashed all over me, and I felt no pain at all.

Li Xiong shouted loudly. "Fan Li, you are powerful! "To think that you would turn my arrow around, even stabbing and injuring me …" I opened my eyes and looked at this scene in disbelief.'s abdomen was dyed red with blood and the arrow had pierced into his abdomen. How could he be hurt?

Tung's face twitched with pain, and he fought back the pain, fighting back the tears that were rolling in his eyes as he stared at me, expressing an emotion! An extremely deep sense of brotherhood! I understood that he didn't mean to kill me. He just wanted to arouse my anger so that I could fight back and he would die for me. But seeing that I didn't waver in the slightest, that's why he hurt himself! I could imagine him turning the tip of the arrow toward me with his thumb, forefinger, and middle finger just as the tip of the arrow was about to pierce my body! At such a close distance, if my movements are fast enough, it would be hard for others to see. Then, Xiong Xiong will pretend to be defeated by my hands because he wants to fool Cao Cao to let me live. Secondly, Xiong will first "be unrighteous" and then lose his life at brother's hands.

I was so excited that I hugged Xiong tightly. Unable to hold back my tears any longer, I said, "Big brother, why are you so foolish?" Cao Cao shouted sternly: "Li Xiong! Don't think I'm a fool! You deliberately hurt yourself, I will not know! Your fleeting expression and the quiver in your voice have betrayed you! There's no way you can hurt your brother! And Fan Li had even directly said that she was unable to harm her own good brother! But you two broke the rules of the game, so the only thing you two can do is die! "

Just as Cao Cao's voice faded away, a large group of soldiers raised their weapons and rushed forward. The archers, however, tightened their grip on the arrows, ready to launch a fatal attack at any moment! But I held on tightly to Xiong and quickly helped him stop the bleeding. I held onto his hand tightly and looked at him affectionately and said, "Big brother, Fourth Brother will not leave you! No! Absolutely not! " Xiong looked at me and struggled desperately, because he wanted to fight his way out for us with all his might!

What!" What did you just say? " On the city wall, Cao Cao loudly shouted. The servant standing in front of him repeated the process, but Cao Cao could no longer suppress the joy in his heart. He jumped in excitement, and Cao Cao ran away like a wisp of smoke. It caused everyone to be stunned on the spot, and they didn't attack us four brothers either! What could make Cao Cao so happy that he left without a care for anything? Everyone was confused.

After a long while, Xu Zhu ran up the city wall and shouted loudly towards everyone, "The prime minister has an order! Note 1: Settle Jiao Prefecture's Deputy Stinger properly! Please have a good rest, Jiao Prefecture's Deputy Stinger! " When we heard this, we were shocked. We didn't understand why Cao Cao's transformation happened so quickly. What kind of conspiracy was there? Everyone on the scene was dumbfounded.

Sima Yi roared: "Why? Master doesn't know that Fan Li is the strongest opponent? "Master, what's wrong?" Xu Zhu glared at Sima Yi and said sternly: Zhongda, do you dare to not listen to Master's orders? Sima Yi clenched his teeth, looked at Xu Zhu who was emitting an imposing aura, and had no choice but to clasp his hands and say: "Zhongda does not dare! "Zhongda will definitely obey the orders of the Lord!" Xu Zhu could not help but nod his head.

Sima Yi was deeply resentful, "Damn it, Cao Cao! Why did you let Fan Li escape? Fan Li, is your life really being cared for by the heavens? Humph! I will definitely take your life! I don't believe in fate! "

I had been helped up and treated by a doctor. Everyone's face turned respectful, and I was puzzled by it all.

Cao Cao also arranged for us to be placed in a magnificent mansion, I looked at this mansion, and couldn't figure out how Cao Cao changed so quickly!" Cao Cao Cao also sent his eldest son Cao Ang to apologize for what he had just done. This confused us even more.

Since there was good healing medicine, Toshiko's injury was almost healed. Just at this time, Xu Zhu said in front of them, "Lord Fan, along with Master Li Xiong, Master Chen Zhi, and Master Zhang Tie, the Emperor wishes to see you all! The envoy has come to order you to enter the palace! Lord Fan, please quickly follow me! " Xu Zhu then looked at the servants beside him: "Give the uniform to the four lords over! so that the four great sirs can quickly change clothes! "

The four of us received the court uniforms from our subordinates and came out. Xu Zhu led us to the imperial court.

The four of us looked around the grand hall, and we couldn't help but be awed by how beautiful it was. It was truly beautiful! We can't believe we're in a fairyland like this. The four of us simply allowed the eunuchs to guide us as we stood guard at the door of the palace.

"Announce Fan Li, Li Xiong, Chen Zhi and Zhang Tie to the palace!" The eunuch at our side pushed us before we knew to go to the palace. The four of us lowered our heads and slowly walked to the hall. We knelt down and kowtowed nine times.

This is my first time meeting a saint. I am extremely excited, but I can't suppress the nervousness in my heart. The Emperor asked: "You are Fan Li, Li Xiong, Chen Zhi, Chen Zhi, Zhang Tie? Lifting your head, let us have a look! " The four of us raised our heads in response, and the Emperor looked at us and said, "You truly look like geniuses! Fan Li, you're the one after Fan Li? And Li Xiong was after General Li Guang, while Chen Zhi was after Tai Fu, Chen Fan? Zhang Tie is the grandson of the former Si Nong, Zhang Huan? "

The four of us knelt on the ground and replied in unison, "Yes!" The Emperor laughed and said, "Good! Good! After all of you were famous, especially Li Xiong, Chen Zhi, Zhang Tie, all of your ancestors, who rendered meritorious services to my big sized man, and now you all have helped my big sized man to preserve the territory of the Jiao Prefecture, to not be stolen by the traitor Zhang Jiao and to not kill Zhang Jiao; "Tell me, how should I reward you?"

After Sima Yi heard the Emperor's words, he was shocked. He anxiously patted Sima Lang who was beside him and said: "Brother, Fan Li's ambition is not to be fooled by him! And Chen Zhi's father, Chen Yi, was involved in this matter! " After all, he knew that his younger brother had enmity with me. He could not allow an enemy who had enmity with his clan to escape danger and grow up.

Sima Lang stepped out and said: "Your majesty, this cannot be done!" The Emperor looked at Sima Lang and asked, "Sima Aoqing, what do you think is wrong with that?" Sima Lang replied, "The former Chen Fan's son, Chen Yi, was the father of Chen Zhi and his warlock, Xiang Kai. He had once said, 'Astronomy is not good for eunuchs. Chen Yi was overjoyed. He plotted against Wang Fen, Xu You of Nanyang and Zhou Qi of Peiguo in an attempt to destroy the late emperor. Fortunately, the late emperor had the help of heaven. Chen Yi had committed a crime of treason, he deserved the nine familial extermination! Moreover, Yi Yi often complained about his father's death to the court in order to confuse the people's hearts! Two crimes were not enough to punish him, and killing Chen Yi's entire clan twice wasn't too bad either! Chen Zhi is Chen Yi's son, and Fan Li, Li Xiong and Zhang Tie are sworn brothers of mine, according to the rules, they should sit down and behead him! "

Chen Zhi glared at the offering emperor and then at Sima Lang. He could not forget the grievances that his grandfather had suffered, and that his father had gone back and forth to help his grandfather. He was not loyal to the big man, because he knew very well what kind of fate his grandfather would end up getting for being loyal to the big man! Sima Lang saw the look in Chen Zhi's eyes as he glared at him, and couldn't help but point at Chen Zhi, and said, "Your majesty! Chen Zhi's resentful eyes offended the emperor! One could imagine that Chen Zhi had ill intentions! As if what's the use of keeping such a disorderly subject as a thief? "

Upon hearing this, the offering Emperor fell silent and looked towards Cao Cao with an inquiring look. Sima Yi was secretly pleased with himself, he did not forget to stand up and add fuel to the fire: "The son of Li Guang, Li Ling, betrayed my disciple and joined the Hun family, this is national shame! After all, Li Xiong was Li Ling, so how could he be rewarded when he had not yet punished the crimes of his ancestors? Our Lord is the wise Martial God, he can definitely make the decision! "

The four of us brothers looked at each other in dismay. Looks like we won't be able to escape death today. If we were to die on the drill grounds, we wouldn't be as humiliated as we were by the emperor! Even his own ancestors were tainted …

The officials on the high platform all echoed his order. The offering emperor looked at Cao Cao and was about to give the order to execute the four of them.

Cao Cao's face did not look good at all, it was obvious that Cao Cao Cao did not want to kill us, he was angry at Sima Lang and Sima Yi for their troubles, he fiercely glared at the two of them, and then shot a look at Xun You, which Xun You understood.

Xun You stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, this subject believes that it is absolutely impossible! Chen Fan had died unjustly, and even now, the people of the country were still indignant over his injustice. If they were to kill Chen Fan's descendants, they would definitely lose the will of the people! Furthermore, what Chen Yi thinks is the annihilation of the family of eunuchs, he is not trying to threaten my big man, he is still loyal to him! Was there evidence that Chen Yi had spread the rumor? Everything had to be stated in witness and evidence! Without evidence, one could not presume to judge a person's life and death, much less the felony of slaying the Nine Clan. Also, the matter regarding Li Ling was controversial, and there were still people who pitied Li Ling for it. Coupled with the fact that several hundred years had passed since then, there was no need for the tolerant Great Han Dynasty to pursue the matter any further! Zhang Tie's grandfather, Zhang Huan, has been garrisoned at the border for many years to help the big sized man fight off the foreign enemies. Until now, he still has some prestige within the outer sect as well as the military. After Xun You finished speaking, he deliberately paused to observe the offering.

The offering emperor nodded to him, but he still had to look at Cao Cao's face. Cao Cao Cao looked at Xun You approvingly, gesturing for him to continue. After Xun You looked at the four of us, he said: "Fan Li, Li Xiong, Chen Zhi, Zhang Tie, and the others have done meritorious services for the big sized man's southern territory. To the big sized man, they are meritorious officials. If they are punished because of this, this subject is afraid that other people will not dare to come! When the world was in chaos today, His Majesty's magnanimity would definitely cause those who were doubtful to appear before him. The rewards and punishments had their merits. This was also a sign of His Majesty's enlightened actions! It's also a good way to gather the people's hearts! "

Cao Cao laughed out loud and said, "Good! Gongda, what you said is too good! Your Majesty, this subject pleads for Your Majesty to listen to Xun You's words of loyalty! " Since Cao Cao had spoken, he had no choice but to obey.

Sima Yi still wanted to say something, but under Cao Cao's strict stare, Sima Yi could only shut his mouth and not speak. We were very curious about this sudden scene. Why would Cao Cao favor us? What was the inside story? I couldn't figure it out.
