After hearing Xi Zhong's words, Boss Cao finally stopped laughing, turned around and asked seriously: "Why did Zhi Cai say this? Did he hear some rumors?"

He had emphasized to Cao Chen before that not to talk nonsense about Zhou Feng, and that even if there were any problems, he would let Xi Zhong come to him.

And he himself had used "physical reasons" as an excuse to temporarily fend off the drama loyalist. The drama loyalist never mentioned this matter for a while, but now he suddenly brought it up again. He must have heard something!

Thinking of this, Boss Cao immediately felt a sense of anger in his heart.

Only the Heren Army knew about Zhou Feng, and as his secret army, only he and a few close associates knew about the true responsibilities of the Herenjun. Even when Cao Zhen told everyone about this strange incident just now,

There was no mention of where that batch of gold came from, and the part of tomb robbing was skipped.

Even among the people sitting now, everyone except Cheng Yu knew it well... At that time, Cheng Yu sent Lu Bu's spy Yang Wanli to the Hu army, which was actually Xun Yu's intention.

It was also because of this that when Cao Chen mentioned that he had a great gift for him and said that this gift was of great importance, Boss Cao could hold back his curiosity and wait until night to talk about it.

But at this moment, Xi Zhong heard something he shouldn't have heard.

This shows that there must be someone in the Hu army who is gossiping everywhere. If such a person can tell this matter, he can also tell other things. He must not be left behind!

"Jianjun Mo Nian, no one else mentioned this. It's just that when Zhong came home these past two days and scolded my nephew Zhou Feng for failing to live up to expectations, I heard some different words from him."

Xi Zhong hurriedly bowed slightly and said, "Now that I heard the envoy and the generals talking about the Hu army, Zhicai suspected that Zhou Feng's words were untrue, so he wanted to verify it with the envoy... before making a decision."

Zhou Feng is dead.

Xi Zhong knew what kind of person Boss Cao was, and when he mentioned this matter, he knew that Zhou Feng would definitely die.

Therefore, the reason why Xi Zhong asked this question was actually because he had murderous intentions towards Zhou Feng.

Zhou Feng did something shameful this time when he was in the Qian army. If you want to make you have to cover up for him for the sake of your own face, this is disloyal!

Now that he has returned home, he continues to talk nonsense and deceive his eldest mother and the head of the family. If he believed Zhou Feng's words and brought him to confront the envoy, then the lie would be exposed and the actor's face would be gone.

This is unfilial!

Such an unfaithful and unfilial person does not deserve to live in this world!

The actor thought very clearly, even if he offended the woman and just kicked her out of the actor's house, with his virtue and despicableness, maybe in order to live a good life for a few days, he would dare to take advantage of his relationship with the actor.

Because of his reputation, he goes around cheating people out to eat and drink.

If this is the case, in fact, the actor's face and the family tradition that he has tried so hard to maintain will be destroyed by this son!

so.

No matter whether the envoy wants him to die or not.

The opera fans all want him dead, but they just want him to die clearly!

"In that case..."

Boss Cao had also heard Xi Zhong's meaning and determination from his words, so the anger in his heart quickly subsided, and he nodded slightly in a tacit understanding, turned around and said to the other people, "Yuan Rang, Wen Ruo, Zhong De, also

You Zixiu, that’s all for today, you go back first and Anmin stays.”

"Yes, your Majesty."

Several people bowed and quickly retreated.

When there were only three people left in the hall, Boss Cao said to Cao Chen again: "Anmin, tell your uncle Zhicai what happened in Dangshan. There is no need to hide anything."

"Yes, uncle."

Cao Zhen nodded.

Then he told Zhou Feng exactly what he had done at that time, and the image of a clown who stole chicken but lost everything was vividly displayed on the page.

Hearing this made the opera fans blush slightly.

Fortunately, Zhou Feng's surname is not Xi, so he is not considered an actor.

Otherwise, regardless of whether he has done anything unfaithful or unfilial, if someone sees through it and does not realize it, it will be as unbearable as a monkey show. The actor will use family methods to beat him to death with sticks to avoid being embarrassed and ruined.

The actor's reputation.

"Uncle Zhicai, everything I just said is true, and everyone in the army can testify."

After finishing speaking, Cao Chun did not forget to give a guaranteed vote, although for Boss Cao and Xi Zhong, it was a bit unnecessary.

"Thank you Anmin."

The actor bowed his hands and thanked him.

"Anmin, you should go out first."

Boss Cao waved his hand and said to Cao Chen.

"yes."

Cao Zhen also bowed and bowed.

It was also at this time that Boss Cao finally beckoned Xi Zhong to sit next to him, poured him a glass of wine himself, and asked with a smile: "Zhicai, what do you think of this person now?"

"This person is quite quick-witted, and his response to this matter was just right. By calming down, he completely blocked the possibility of Zhou Feng excusing himself later. It was undoubtedly a clever plan... Only Yishi Zhong hadn't thought of it yet.

clear."

Xi Zhong knew that Boss Cao was not talking about Zhou Feng, so he said attentively, "This person must have taken precautions in advance so that he could take advantage of the situation. But how did he detect this in advance? Zhou Feng

No matter how stupid you are, you shouldn't be exposed in advance, so Tadashi doesn't understand."

"An Min said that this person is the descendant of Ji Tong. Occasionally, when something happens, he will have inexplicable predictions. What do you think about this?"

Boss Cao asked again.

"If this is the case, the incident in Dangshan and even his recent actions in Yanzhou can be explained."

Xi Zhong nodded and said sternly, "It's just what is going on with this bastard... Zhong has never been in contact with or understands it, so he dare not speak nonsense."

"Um……"

Boss Cao frowned, wondering what he was thinking.

"But at the moment, it seems that this person is sincerely doing things for the envoy. I don't see any other thoughts at the moment. It may not be a bad thing."

Xi Zhong thought for a while and then said, "If you still have doubts, don't you have to meet this person tonight? Why don't you take the opportunity to test his sincerity and ambition, which can also reassure you."

"What Zhicai said is absolutely true. Come and meet this person with me tonight."

Boss Cao finally nodded and said.

"As commanded."

Xi Zhong cupped his hands and said, "But now Zhong needs to go back to Yuncheng to deal with family matters. Please allow me to do so."

"Go ahead, leave early and come back early."

Boss Cao nodded.

The actor saluted, turned around and left the back hall.

From beginning to end, except for Cao Chen's account of what happened in Dangshan, neither of them ever directly discussed anything about Zhou Feng.

But it seems that a consensus has been reached, and it is a consensus that is acceptable to both parties.

As for Wu Liang.

There is naturally a reason why he has always called himself a Ji Tong and said that Qi Ji's ability is very unreliable, rather than pretending to be a ghost to magnify his ability or even mythologize himself.

Zuo Ci, nicknamed "Mr. Wu Jiao", is a good example.

Zuo Ci was a famous alchemist in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. It is said that he was proficient in the Five Classics, knew the magic of the room, understood astrology, and was also good at Qimen Dunjia. He could command ghosts and gods, sit down and cook, and was no different from an immortal.

However, these are mostly folklore.

In fact, Cao Zhi's description of this person in the official history is this: "There are alchemists in the world, and my king has recruited them. There is Gan Shi in Ganling, Zuo Ci in Lujiang, and Qie Jian in Yangcheng. Shi can guide Qi.

, Ci Xiao was known as a man of great skill in the house, frugal and good at making grains, and he was known as hundreds of years old. The reason why we gathered in the Wei State was because we were afraid that this person would be his disciples, and that he would accept treachery to deceive the people, and do evil things to confuse the people, so we gathered here.

And it is forbidden. How can you watch the gods in Yingzhou, seek safety at the border sea, release the golden chariot and look at the clouds, abandon Wen Ji and seek the flying dragon! The king, the prince and the rest of the brothers thought it was a joke and did not believe it.

That’s it.”

Simply translated it means:

Legend has it that Gan Shi from Ganling knew how to guide luck, Zuo Ci from Lu Jiang knew Fangzhongshu, and Qie Jian from Yangcheng knew how to live long periods of time. They all claimed to have lived hundreds of years. But in fact, my father concentrated them in Wei because he was afraid of these things.

You fools are causing trouble, so why don't you gather them here to keep a close eye on them? How can you expect to see a fairy? My father, the prince and my brothers all took it as a joke and didn't believe it at all!

This is how the Cao family views these alchemists.

Even folk unofficial history has such a record: "It is said that Zuo Ci claimed to have mastered the art of fasting and could not eat for a year. So when Cao Cao heard about it, he summoned Zuo Ci and locked him up in a stone house and sent people to monitor him.

He didn't give him food for a year, and then he was released after a year. He was still the same as before. However, Cao Cao still believed that there is no reason for people in the world not to eat. Zuo Ci didn't eat for a year. It must be because of it.

The evil heretic, must kill him..."

Emmm…

This unofficial rumor undoubtedly further confirms what Cao Zhi said in the official history about Boss Cao’s attitude towards these alchemists who pretend to be gods and ghosts.

Starve him for a year first, and then kill him if he doesn't starve to death...

Wu Liang boasted that he could not survive without eating for a year.
To be continued...
