"Are you telling the truth? Xiahou Dun will definitely not let you go if he really says it?"
"certainly!"
Xun Hong immediately straightened up and answered, nodding quickly and wildly.
I'm afraid he was a little too late and Cao Cao didn't see his sincerity.
"King Wei, it was not our intention to harm General Xiahou Dun. We were forced to do nothing!"
"Then Xiahou Dun repeatedly made insulting remarks, and both his words and his words were intended to take our lives! And our Central Plains family, Xiahou Dun also made words to deal with them one by one!"
"I dare to ask King Wei, what should we do in this situation! Should we, who are so sincere, be the victims of Xiahou Dun's sword!"
This stern question once again made Cao Cao unsure of how to reply.
If what they said is true, Xiahou Dun died unjustly.
Not only was he arrogant, but he also spoke arrogantly, offending the entire family with just a few words.
Even if the two of them did not kill Xiahou Dun, Cao Cao would not be able to remain silent if the entire family were to investigate in the future.
These words are so mindless.
Generally speaking, even if you want to deal with the aristocratic clan, you have to suppress it a little bit and affect the whole area.
How can there be comprehensive suppression?
Xiahou Dun did just that!
Cao Cao was angry and resentful, and regretted letting Xiahou Dun go.
If Cao Ren were allowed to go, this would never happen.
"King Wei, don't listen to sycophants!"
When Xia Houyuan saw Cao Cao's expression softening, he was shocked and stepped forward.
"It must be these two traitors who are talking nonsense and framed Yuan Rang!"
Cao Cao didn't say anything, but his face was solemn.
Xia Houyuan was even more unbelievable.
In anger, he raised his sword and slashed at the two of them.
"I will kill you first, lest you frame Yuan Rang here!"
"kill!"
Now the sword was about to be swung in front of him. Xun Hong was so frightened that he screamed, but he had nowhere to dodge.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Cao Cao stopped the violence.
"stop!"
Xia Houyuan was furious, how could he stop? The sword was still swung towards Xun Hong.
He planned to kill Xun Hong first and then Han Chong!
when!
At this time, a long spear moved forward, accurately blocking the path of the sword.
Xia Houyuan turned around and looked furious.
"Zhang He, why are you stopping me?"
Zhang He's face was expressionless.
"General Xiahou, didn't you hear what King Wei said?"
Xia Houyuan ignored it and roared angrily.
"Step aside!"
Zhang He responded to Xia Houyuan with practical actions and refused to give in.
"Get out of my way, general!"
Xia Houyuan was furious and kept swinging his sword in an attempt to get rid of the spear.
Unfortunately, Zhang He didn't move at all.
Cao Cao stepped forward and grabbed Xia Houyuan's arm.
"Miaocai, have you had enough trouble?"
"King Wei!"
Xia Houyuan's eyes were red and he was very sad.
He simply could not face the fact that Cao Cao wanted to pardon Xiahou Dun's murderer.
"If King Wei doesn't kill these two people, please kill me! Let me go accompany Yuan Rang!"
"What nonsense are you talking about! When did I ever say I would forgive them?"
Xia Houyuan was stunned.
"Doesn't King Wei want forgiveness?"
Cao Cao shook his head.
Forgiveness is naturally impossible.
What made Cao Cao suspicious was that Xun Yu and the Central Plains clan had sworn that they had not betrayed him.
Judging from the tone, eyes, and expression, it didn't look like expectation at all.
How can two young boys have such good acting skills?
Cao Cao observed repeatedly, but it didn't seem like he was pretending.
This illustrates a problem. The two men who led the troops really came to help him.
But why did Xun Yu suddenly turn against the enemy and reveal in public that he was here to harm Cao Cao?
Cao Cao couldn't help but have a splitting headache, and all kinds of conflicting information gathered together, leaving him wondering what to do.
I have no choice but to temporarily put down my thinking and take it one step at a time.
"Miaocai, please be patient for a moment. When you call out Liu Zhang, you will kill the two thieves in front of him!"
Xia Houyuan turned from anger to joy and quickly bowed down.
"Thank you so much, King Wei! I thank you so much for Yuan Rang, King Wei!"
Cao Cao patted Xia Houyuan on the shoulder to express his reassurance.
But the appearance of this scene made Xun Hong and Han Chong feel despair.
Fortunately for Han Chong, he had no intention of living.
Xun Hong was in bad shape, and his mentality collapsed instantly.
"King Wei, King Wei! You can't kill me!"
"I can't help myself, King Wei!"
When Xia Houyuan heard this, his mood, which had just improved, became furious again. He raised his leg and kicked him hard.
Xun Hong was kicked and rolled several times on the ground.
"Bitch, if you dare to talk nonsense again, I will kill you right now!"
"I..."
Xun Hong was frightened. The kick caused him so much pain that he really didn't dare to say anything.
Cao Cao didn't let Xiahou Dun kill him, but he didn't say he wouldn't let Xiahou Dun beat him.
If you kick him a few more times, it won't make any difference whether you kill him or not.
But his huge desire to survive forced Xun Hong to pray to Cao Cao again.
"King Wei, killing General Xiahou Dun really has nothing to do with me. Everything... everything was done by Han Chong, King Wei!"
Han Chong was shocked when he heard this, full of disbelief.
"Xun Hong, you are so embarrassed to speak!"
"It was the conflict between you and Xiahou Dun that triggered the conflict between Xiahou Dun and the entire family!"
"Without this contradiction, how could I help you kill Xiahou Dun?"
"You are the commander-in-chief. How can I make arrangements without your consent?"
"How dare you say that it has nothing to do with you now? How can you have the nerve to say this!"
Xun Hong looked ashamed and kept stammering.
"I...I...I..."
"What are you!"
Han Chong shouted loudly.
"You cowardless bastard, you are a disgrace to the Xun family!"
Xun Hong felt even more ashamed and buried his head in his chest.
In fact, Xun Hong acquiesced to this fact from the moment he opened his mouth.
But putting everything together with life, the latter is undoubtedly more important.
"King Wei, can you spare me for the sake of my uncle Xun Yu..."
Cao Cao thought for a while, and then Xia Houyuan gave him a look, warning him not to say anything.
Then, he nodded and agreed.
"Yes, as long as you agree to one condition!"
