Chapter 1073 Murder and Punishment

Wei Zhen's heart was shocked and felt like he was seen through at first sight.

Some of these people are well-known, and some are not well-known, but they still cannot escape Sun Ce's eyes. Before they set out, Sun Ce grasped their movements. He Yong and Yuan Tan said just now that they were in vain, he didn't believe it. Now that he saw this list, he knew He Yong, and Yuan Tan was right, and there was no chance to send someone to rob the prison.

"this……"

"Don't rush to deny it, otherwise it will be an insult to my mind." Sun Ce walked slowly with his hands behind his back. "Chen Gongtai is a rare wise man. Cao Zixiao, Yu Wenze and others are rare generals, and they are also loyal and righteous people. With you, Cao Zixiu could have done something, made meritorious and made a marquis, and specialized in the area. However, his assistance to Yuan Shao was a big failure. In this regard, Cao Mengde, the father, did a very inauthentic job. He escaped, but left his son in the fire pit."

Wei Zhen was speechless. He also felt that Cao Cao was doing this very tricky. Although Cao Ang was also considered the best among the younger generation, he struggled to be an enemy of Sun Ce. Being the governor of Yanzhou as he wished does not mean that he can truly control Yanzhou and develop his own power. With Yuan Shao's suspicious personality, Cao Ang would not be able to feel at ease.

"Birds of birds flock together, and people are divided into groups. From family background to age, to nature, Cao Zixiu and I can be considered the same type of person. He didn't join forces with me to fight for a poor family, but insisted on holding Yuan Shao's thighs and working for the wealthy family. Isn't it a pity that Chen Gongtai is so smart, don't you know the principle of avoiding death and cooking a lackey? If Cao Zixiu can become the governor of Yanzhou, the first person to be grateful for is me. If I am defeated by Yuan Shao, how long do you think he can be the governor of Yanzhou?"

Wei Zhen closed his mouth and said nothing, but his heart was in a state of uproar. Sun Ce was right. The Cao family was not well-born. Yuan Shao never treated Cao Cao as a confidant from the beginning. In his eyes, Cao Cao was just a hawk. Cao Cao was like this, and Cao Ang was no exception. Now that Yuan Tan is defeated, Cao Ang takes over as the governor of Yanzhou, Yuan Shao was more helpless because the people of Dongjun support Cao Ang and Yanzhou support Cao Cao, which was like coercion.

Yuan Shao is not a person who can tolerate coercion. When he is ready, Cao Ang will definitely be punished. If Sun Ce, a powerful enemy, is defeated, Cao Ang will not have a place to stay. Chen Gong also knew this, so he asked Cao Ang to do everything possible to strengthen himself and build enough strength before Sun Ce's demise, so that Yuan Shao dared not act rashly.

But this is obviously a very risky decision. Chen Gong didn't say it, but Wei Zhen guessed that Chen Gong would never want Sun Ce to perish too quickly. Sun Ce would live one more day, and Cao Ang would have more chances.

Wei Zhen was suddenly shocked. If this conjecture is true, then Chen Gong spent money to hire You Xiaer just to act, which made people see Cao Ang worried about He Yong and Mrs. Ding. In fact, he did not expect success. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. He couldn't help but feel ashamed and a little angry. He was Cao Ang's envoy, but Chen Gong did not tell him the truth, which made him embarrassed in front of Sun Ce.

"Oh, there is one more thing to tell you. Xin Zhuozhi went to Jingzhou and was a guest under Zhou Gongjin's curtain."

Wei Zhen's heart tightened again. Xinpi surrendered to Sun Ce? Then Cao Ang's chances of defeating Sun Ce were even smaller. Although Chen Gong was wise, he had no advantage over Xinpi.

"Thank you, General, I will report to Cao Yanzhou truthfully. General, can I ask a question?"

"you say."

"What are you going to deal with He Boqiu?" Wei Zhen said: "To be specific, will you kill him?"

Sun Ce smiled. "There is no plan to kill him yet. Compared to killing people, I am more willing to kill myself. Of course, he must pay enough price to assassinate me. Jing Ke assassinated Qin Shihuang and paid the fate of Fan Yuqi and Yan. He assassinated me, how can one life be paid?"

Wei Zhen's heart skipped a beat. Sun Ce was talking about He Yong, but he always felt that Sun Ce's meaning was more directed at Cao Ang. The matter of robbing prisoners had been leaked before it was done, and it was meaningless to do it reluctantly except to arouse Sun Ce's anger and destroy the lives of Mrs. Ding and Cao Ying.

This must be stopped immediately.

Langya, Kaiyang.

A simple and unpretentious four-wheeled carriage was parked on the official road. The coachman stood beside the carriage, adjusting the reins and bridles of the horse. Ten knights led the war horses and stood quietly aside, waiting for the order to set off.

Tao Qian held Jiang Gan's hand and tried to speak several times, but the words came to his mouth, but in the end he turned into a sigh. The war for several months made him exhausted, with more wrinkles on his face and more white hair on his temples, as if he was several years old. Time was unforgivable, and he didn't feel it. The war for several months made him realize that he was no longer the age of not taking staying up late seriously during the Western Expedition. Even if he had not had enough sleep in the middle of the night, he would not be able to get up for several days. But when he asked him to go to bed, he couldn't sleep and often lay in bed waiting for dawn.

Jiang Gan and Tao Qian were together for several months and were very worried about him. He held Tao Qian's hand in the back. "Duke Tao, don't worry. I dare not guarantee that General Sun will meet your requirements, but I dare guarantee that General Sun will not sit idly by. He will definitely help you recover Xia Pi and Guangling."

"As long as General Sun's assistance, I will definitely defeat Liu He and recover Xia Pi and Guangling." Tao Qian said earnestly: "I dare not ask too much, I just hope he can provide me with some food and weapons. I also know that although he defeated Yuan Tan, the loss was not small, and he was injured again, it would be difficult for him to fight again for a while."

Jiang Gan smiled. Tao Qian wanted to form an alliance with Sun Ce, but was worried about being eaten by Sun Ce. No wonder he was uneasy.

"I will definitely convey Mr. Tao's intentions to General Sun. However, Mr. Tao, I have a word to tell you, and I hope Mr. Tao will not be presumptuous."

Tao Qian lowered his face and felt a little unhappy. "Ziyi, you don't know who I am yet, why are you so polite?"

"Of course, Mr. Tao will not blame me for being generous. I am too careless." Jiang Gan smiled and bowed. "Mr. Tao, you have been a hero for a lifetime and admired by the world. But you cannot spoil your son too much. You should let go when you should let them endure hardships. If you don't let them go through the battlefield, how can they grow? Will you still charge in another ten years and let them sit in the back?"

Tao Qian's eyes flashed slightly, and he understood what Jiang Gan meant. "You are right. This time the dog son guarded Wuyuan, and he fought well. It is indeed time for their brothers to do anything. I can't let me do everything." He paused and sighed again. "Sun Wentai is so lucky. With a good boy like Sun Bofu, my two sons are really shameless to see others. Oh, it's my father's incompetence to educate his children. If they let them fight with Sun Bofu, they might have some success. After all, this world is their competition ground. I'm old and it's time to play with my grandson. Ziyi, when you pass by Tan County, take Boyun and let him go to Runan with you to open your eyes."

Jiang Gan happily promised.
