"Why are you so confident?"
This was Cao Zhi's last question and his last stubbornness.
If Cao Pi can give him another explanation that is difficult to answer, he will really have no choice but to admit defeat.
It's a pity, Cao Pi really has it!
"Why? Just because I am the King of Wei!"
As soon as he spoke, his domineering power spread out.
Cao Zhi wanted to angrily denounce this shameless statement, but was suppressed by the momentum.
"Third brother, don't forget your identity!"
"Under the command of a prefect, the most you can do is to be a captain or a partial general. Your future is extremely limited!"
"But it's different under Gu's command! Generals of the Four Directions, Generals of the Four Expeditions, Four Towns, Four Ans, Four Equals, etc.!"
"You can say whatever you want, Gu will give him! What reason does the frustrated Wang Lie have to refuse the status that Gongsun Kang can never give him?"
Cao Zhi was stunned and gasped for air.
At this moment, he had no words to fight back.
Perhaps he was still dissatisfied, but he was already speechless.
In every aspect, Cao Pi suppressed him until he was speechless.
"Brother, I..."
Just when Cao Zhi was mentally prepared to admit defeat and was about to speak, Cao Pi suddenly raised his hand to interrupt.
"Third brother, Gu knows that you must be unwilling. It doesn't matter, Gu can still convince you."
"No need to say anything more, just say a name and you will be willing to do it."
Cao Zhi, who was originally weak, suddenly became ferocious.
He didn't believe that Cao Pi had this ability.
"Brother please enlighten me!"
Cao Pi curled his lips and smiled.
"Xu Shu."
Those two words almost made Cao Zhi faint from shock.
"Xu...Xu Shu!"
As the prince of Wei, Cao Zhi also had a basic understanding of world affairs.
At the beginning, Liu Zhang personally conquered Jingzhou, captured Xu Shu, and made an emergency landing!
At the expense of Guan Yu and others, Xu Shu's mother was exchanged, thus gaining Xu Shu's allegiance.
These are not the most important.
The important thing is that Xu Shu originally hated Liu Zhang very much, and his heart was for Liu Bei.
Without Xu Shu's help, how could Liu Bei gain a foothold in Jingnan?
What a dream!
But it was such a person who surrendered to Liu Zhang wholeheartedly and helped Liu Zhang destroy Liu Bei!
In terms of ability, Xu Shu is countless times stronger than Wang Lie, and his loyalty is naturally unparalleled.
But it still dropped.
With this precedent, why didn't Wang Lie surrender? How could he not surrender?
"Why..."
Cao Zhi sighed softly, and his whole body drooped like a deflated ball.
"Big Brother, I am convinced. From now on, I will never disobey Big Brother's orders. I will only obey Big Brother's orders!"
After saying that, he bent his knees and knelt down in front of Cao Pi.
The recognition of the master agreed before was definitely not just talk!
"Your Majesty, Cao Zhi, pays homage to the King of Wei!"
It doesn’t matter what Cao Zhang’s opinions are, or whether he is willing or not.
Cao Zhi is willing to pay for his anger and impulse.
In fact, there is another main reason. Cao Pi's ability to be so meticulous has surpassed him.
As Cao Cao's son, wouldn't he want to revive Wei?
If Cao Pi is suitable, Cao Zhi is willing to do his best to assist.
"Third brother, please get up quickly!"
Cao Pi was delighted and stepped forward to lift Cao Zhi up.
The hands holding the shoulders were trembling.
I have been waiting day and night for so long, and finally the day has come!
This is recognition of the Lord, this is true surrender!
In the future, Cao Zhi will never do the following again.
"Third brother?"
Cao Pi was a little surprised. He tried to lift Cao Zhi for a long time, but he couldn't lift him up.
It wasn't that he did this on purpose, but Cao Zhi kept struggling and fell to his knees.
"You and Gu are brothers, blood brothers! The closest relatives in this world!"
"It's enough to have this heart, you don't have to be so polite!"
Cao Zhi shook his head firmly and refused.
"The King of Wei is kind and righteous, but etiquette and law cannot be abolished!"
"Since I have said that I will be loyal to King Wei, I will never go back on it!"
"OK OK!"
Cao Pi patted Cao Zhi on the shoulder.
Cao Pi was still a little uncomfortable with such a big change all of a sudden.
Compared to this, Cao Zhi, who frequently opposed him, seemed more real.
"Third brother, these are difficult times, and there are many things that don't need to be restricted."
"If Gongsun Kang sees it and thinks Gu is hinting at him, it will be bad!"
"It's better to wait until the Wei Kingdom is revived and the city of Ye City, Wei County is taken back, then we can make further calculations!"
"how?"
Cao Zhi thought for a moment and then agreed.
"I obey!"
"Get up quickly!"
Cao Zhi stood up and bowed several times.
"Thank you, King Wei!"
"Um!"
Cao Pi patted Cao Zhi's shoulder again to express his approval, and then glanced at Cao Zhang with a vague look.
Compared to Cao Zhi, Cao Zhang is the key!
Most of Cao Pi's worries originated from Cao Zhang.
After all, many things at the moment cannot be separated from Cao Zhang.
"Brother."
Cao Zhang is not stupid, how could he not understand what Cao Pi meant.
The first time I glanced at him, I reacted.
Cao Pi suppressed his excitement and asked pretending not to know.
"What's the matter, second brother?"
Cao Zhang didn't hesitate and fell to his knees with a plop.
"a man of his words!"
"A true man should keep his word, even if he has to die!"
After roaring a few words confidently, Cao Zhang hesitated.
In this regard, Cao Pi did not interact with each other, but waited patiently.
He knew that Cao Zhang's words were not meant for him to hear, but for himself.
After all, kneeling down to acknowledge the Lord does require a lot of mental preparation or mental persuasion.
After a long time, Cao Zhang looked hard and made up his mind.
"Your Majesty, Cao Zhang, pays homage to the King of Wei!"
"Hahaha! Okay! Okay!"
Seeing this scene, Cao Pi couldn't help but applaud.
In fact, he knew that it shouldn't be like this, but he just couldn't help it.
"Second brother, please get up quickly!"
"You and Gu are brothers, so there is no need for such a big gift!"
Cao Zhang followed Cao Zhi's example and shook his head in rejection.
"Etiquette cannot be abolished!"
Cao Pi felt so happy. After waiting for so many years, he finally waited for this scene.
To put it bluntly, this scene diluted everything.
Including Cao Cao's death!
But at this moment, there was a burst of laughter from outside the door.
