I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Chapter 235 Bring it to you, talk with father and son

Facing Xia Houjie who suddenly drew his sword, everyone was stunned at first, and then laughed.

"I heard that the Qingzhi Sword is my father's saber, it is extremely sharp, I want to see it today."

Cao Mao smiled lightly and ordered,
"Xingba, fetch the sword for me."

"Here!"

Gan Ning slowly walked out of the queue, his eyes fixed on Xia Houjie.

Xia Houjie only felt as if he was being targeted by a bloodthirsty beast, a deep chill appeared on his back, and his expression became extremely panicked.

"This is the prime minister's sword. Seeing the sword is like seeing the prime minister himself! Wait, are you planning to rebel!"

But his words only made the smiles on the faces of everyone in the tent even more disdainful.

Except for the early tiger and leopard riders who received supplies from Cao Cao and the post of prefect of Hanoi County, Cao Mao never received other help from Cao Cao.

It can be said that Cao Mao's current power can almost be said to rely entirely on his own ability.

As for the generals and counselors under his command, he also gathered them together by virtue of his intelligence and charisma.

Because of this, Xia Houjie wanted to use Cao Cao's saber, Qingzhi Sword, to frighten everyone.

In fact, it is as ridiculous as beheading the officials of this dynasty with the sword of the previous dynasty.

Seeing the extremely oppressive Gan Ning walking towards him step by step, Xia Houjie felt extremely frightened.

On the verge of collapse, he roared, swung his sword and attacked Gan Ning!
However, Gan Ning made a wrong move, dodged his attack, and snatched the white blade with an empty hand.

"Bring it to you!"

The Qingzhi sword was easily snatched by Gan Ning.

"My lord, the sword!"

Gan Ning bowed and handed the Qingzhi Sword to Cao Mao.

Cao Mao took it over and looked at the sword carefully.

Under the candlelight, the blade of the sword glowed with a blue light, and shone with a cold light.

"As expected of my father's saber, it is truly a precious sword."

Cao Mao's eyes showed appreciation, but then he sighed softly,
"It's just that such a precious sword fell into the hands of such a waste as you!"

He stood up slowly, and walked towards Xia Houjie!

Different from Gan Ning, Cao Mao has a majestic and domineering aura that has been in the top position for a long time, which makes Xia Houjie almost breathless!
Cao Mao walked up to Xia Houjie, with the Qingzhi sword in his hand reaching his neck.

Feeling the murderous intent in his throat, Xia Houjie almost peed his pants in fright,

"You...you can't...don't kill me, I...I am the envoy sent by the prime minister..."

The fear in his heart was indescribable, even speaking incoherently.

"Kill you? A waste like you will only dirty such a precious sword."

Cao Mao glanced at it with disdain, and ordered,
"Go back and tell my father, thank him for giving the sword."

Xia Houjie's heart, which was hanging in the air, immediately fell to the ground.

Since Cao Mao said so, he probably wouldn't kill himself.

But before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Cao Mao had another order,
"However, if you dare to threaten me, the death penalty is pardonable, but the living penalty is inevitable. Zhou Cang, give me a heavy staff of thirty army sticks!"

Hearing this, Xia Houjie's face turned pale!
Thirty army sticks down, even if he doesn't die, he will peel off his skin!

……

a few days later.

In Baima City.

Cao Cao looked at Xia Houjie who was being carried back lying on the stretcher with a gloomy expression.

"Is what you said true?"

"Prime Minister, how dare the last general deceive you? Everything he said is true!"

Xia Houjie struggled to straighten his upper body, crying,
"Cao Mao not only disobeyed the military order, but also took the green sword that you gave me as a token, and even gave me thirty army sticks!"

"He's not spanking my ass, he's spanking your face."

Cao Cao's face turned cold, and he shouted sharply,

"Shut up, you bastard!"

Only then did Xia Houjie realize that he had said something wrong.

But looking at Cao Cao's gloomy expression, he didn't dare to say anything.

"Okay, you go down to recuperate first."

Cao Cao took a deep breath and said impatiently.

This Xia Houjie looked at a good-looking talent, but he didn't expect to be such a waste!

Even going to Cao Mao's camp to deliver a message can make such a fuss!
After Xia Houjie was carried down, Cao Cao, whose face was as heavy as water, looked at the other people in the hall.

"What do you guys think about this matter?"

Guo Jia murmured,
"Prime Minister, Mr. Su Lie has only 3 troops in his hands. This time, the continuous battle must be as he said. The soldiers are too exhausted to continue the battle."

"And the lord also knows Mr. Su Lie. He is indeed a little arrogant. It is understandable to have a dispute with General Xia Houjie."

Xun Yu also nodded slightly,
"My lord, let alone whether Mr. Su Lie is willing to cooperate, but now the court cannot support Yuan Shao to continue the Northern Expedition."

Cao Cao twirled his beard, pondered for a moment, then laughed,

"Since this is the case, let's withdraw our troops. It will not be too late to attack Yuan Shao again when the time is right next year."

His expression was relaxed, as if he didn't care about Cao Mao snatching the Qingzhi sword and beating Xia Houjie with a stick.

Hearing this, everyone bowed their hands in unison,

"My lord is wise!"

After everyone dispersed, the smile on Cao Cao's face disappeared instantly, and his expression became extremely cold.

He was silent for a while, and commanded,
"Zhongkang."

"The end is here!"

Xu Zhu strode in from outside the hall.

"Go and call the Second Young Master!"

"Here!"

Xu Zhu left quickly.

After a while, the handsome and slender Cao Pi walked in slowly.

"Father!"

He bowed his hands to Cao Cao and saluted.

"Zi Huan, sit down."

Cao Cao greeted Cao Pi with a smile and sat down beside him.

"It's been a few months since you took over the school office, have you ever gotten used to it?"

"Reporting to father, although there are some difficulties, the child can still overcome it."

Cao Pi replied.

The school affairs office is a supervisory agency founded by Cao Cao. It was previously in charge of Guo Jia and then handed over to Cao Ang.

As a result, because of Cao Mao, Cao Ang was sent back to his hometown in Qiao County, and the school office returned to Guo Jia's hands again.

However, there was a gap between Cao Cao and Cao Mao because of the matter of passing on the jade seal of the country, and because Guo Jia and Xun Yu helped Cao Mao speak, they became suspicious.

So he handed over the position of general of the five senses where Cao Mao lived, as well as the power of the school affairs office, to Cao Pi.

"That's good. By the way, Yang Xiu, Ding Yi, Wu Zhi, Chen Qun, and Zhu Shuo, are they careful in doing things?"

Cao Cao changed the subject and asked several officials under Cao Pi.

"Reporting to my lord, these are all talented people in the world. With their help, my child has achieved twice the result with half the effort."

Cao Pi said honestly.

In history, Sima Yi, Chen Qun, and Zhu Shuo were all counselors under Cao Pi, and they were called "Four Friends" by later generations.

Yang Xiu and Ding Yi were Cao Zhi's advisers.

The two sides made suggestions for Cao Pi and Cao Zhi respectively, so as to compete for the position of Cao Cao's heir.

However, due to the sudden birth of Cao Mao, Cao Cao had to promote Cao Pi and hand over a large number of talents to Cao Pi's dispatch.

"Father called the child today, but is it something that bothers you?"

Cao Pi asked cautiously.

Cao Cao was startled, then smiled and said softly,
"Zihuan, what do you think of your younger brother Mao?"
