In fact, Cao Cao had no hope for this incident against Xu Rong. He was just using this to test the attitude of the emperor and the officials in the court. The facts proved that Cao Cao did not completely control the government, and many people were still standing opposite him.

"Dong Cheng, Zhong Ji, Wu Zilan, Wang Zifu, Wu Shuo, Kong Rong, you guys are so brave that you dare to go against me. Do you really think I dare not kill someone?" Cao Cao's eyes were so sinister and fierce, and he showed infinite murderous intent. He decided to severely punish these disobedient officials and completely master the government. Only in this way can he further expand his strength so that he can compete with Pei Qing, who is also rising rapidly.

"The world's heroes nowadays, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are already dry bones in the tomb, and there is no need to worry. Liu Biao is just a chatterer and a thief who defends himself. Fortunately, Pei Qing is the barrier of it, but there is no future. Although Lu Bu is very unsatisfied in Xuzhou, I will destroy it next. As long as I find an opportunity, it will not be too difficult to destroy Lu Bu, let alone Liu Zhang. However, Sun Ce from Jiangdong and Liu Bei from Jiaozhou have great potential. If there is a possibility of separatism in the future, they will have opportunities. Plus Hengfeng

Pei Qing, who is across the three states of Yuzhou, Sizhou and Bingzhou, is likely to divide the world in the future, but among the three heroes except Pei Qing, the pressure I face is actually the greatest, because my territory is completely bordered by Pei Qing, and I have taken the emperor from him, and they have been fighting each other openly and secretly for countless rounds. Although they have not taken action because of each other's fear, there will be a battle in the future. I must clear all the elements of the different party as soon as possible and take control of the overall situation completely."

It is precisely because he saw the crisis in the changing situation today that Cao Cao decided to step up his actions.

Dong Cheng had no idea that he would pay the price for his provocative behavior. Cao Cao had secretly weaved a tight net. Once this net was closed, it would take his life.

In fact, at this time, no one noticed that Cao Cao's behavior was abnormal. For example, a friend of Kong Rong was named Zhi Xi, who persuaded Kong Rong to be careful of Cao Cao, because the reason why Cao Cao had criticized Xu Rong for being a big fan was just the same as Zhao Gao's purpose of referring to deer as a horse. Now their views are contrary to Cao Cao, and they are likely to be retaliated by Cao Cao.

However, Kong Rong didn't care at all. He thought that Zhi Xi was a little too worried and smiled disdainfully: "Now, Mr. Dong's daughter is the emperor's nobleman. He himself is a general of the chariot and cavalry. He opened the Mansion and the Three Divisions. Even Mr. Cao was a little inferior. How dare Mr. Cao overestimated his ability to attack Mr. Dong?"

After listening to it, Zhi Xi suddenly remained silent, but sighed in his heart. It seemed that Kong Rong was about to have a disaster this time, but Zhi Xi was also a loyal person. Although he knew that something was going to happen to Kong Rong and if he didn't run away, he would still be implicated. However, he still stayed unswervingly. Even if something happened to Kong Rong, he would send Kong Rong away.

Zhi Xi's concerns were soon fulfilled. One night, Zhong Ji went to Dong Cheng's house for a banquet. When he was about to get home, a team of soldiers suddenly appeared. The soldiers stopped him, saying that they had violated the curfew and needed to be searched.

When Zhong Ji heard this, he was furious. What is his identity? As the Yueqi Captain, one of the eight lieutenants, these soldiers actually came forward to investigate. They were so bold.

"Do you know what I am? How dare you search me? I am Changshui Captain Zhong Ji. Who is your chief? Let him come to see me?" Zhong Ji was furious and pointed at the team of soldiers and cursed loudly.

However, a young man smiled faintly and said, "No matter who you are, you must be searched if you violate the national laws. Law is the law of the world. How can you be destroyed just because of you alone?"

Then the young man said in a deep voice: "This Changshui Captain has such a great official power. I will control him first and search him carefully. I want to see who he is? How dare he despise the king's law so much?"

Immediately, several soldiers stepped forward to capture Zong Ji and began to search.

Seeing this, Zhong Ji became even more angry and pointed at the young man and cursed: "Little Shuzi, who are you? How dare you not take me seriously? Do you dare to report your name?"

"So what about the newspaper? My name is Cao Zhen, and I am Cao Gong's adopted son. If you have the opportunity in the future, you will take revenge on me. I am not afraid of you. If you are not guilty, why would you dare to openly violate the law and not allow them to search?"

"It turns out that it is Cao Cao's man. No wonder he is so arrogant. Humph, if you want to search, just search. I want to see how you explain when you can't find anything?"

"If I can't find it, I will definitely apologize to you in person, but if it is found, don't blame me for being rude. I'm just an law enforcement official, but no matter what your identity is... Huh? What is this?"

Cao Zhen searched and spoke, and later said in surprise, and flipped over Zhong Ji's body, finally took out a piece of yellow silk book, and then opened it and recited: "I heard that human relations are great, father and son are the first; the distinction between high and low, the king and minister are the most important. Recently, he has been using thieves to control power, oppress the king and father; forming a party, corrupting the court's principles; and rewarding and punishment, but I cannot help my lord. I am worried all night long and night, fearing that the world will be in danger. I am a minister of the country, and my greatest relatives, should think about the difficulty of Emperor Gao starting a business, combine the martyrs who are loyal and righteous, destroy the treacherous party, and restore the country. My ancestors are very lucky! I sprinkle blood on my fingers, and write an edict to pay my words. Be careful not to let my wishes..."

As Cao Zhen was reciting, his face changed. He said in a deep voice: "I really didn't expect you to forge the emperor's edict. It's really bold... No, it wasn't forged by you. The first one signed on this was Dong Cheng, the general of the edict. It turned out that he was the forger of the edict. The next Changshui lieutenant, the lieutenant of the Yueqi lieutenant, the lieutenant of the edict, Wu Shuo, the general Zhaoxin lieutenant Wu Zilan, and the general Kong Rong, the craftsman, should all be participants. You dare to forge the edict to attack Sikong. Fortunately, we discovered it. Otherwise, if you take off, you will succeed?"
