After dealing with the generals, the morning court continued.

Li Cheng listened to the reports of the ministers.

These things made him feel bored and focused on thinking about the current defeated country.

About half an hour has passed.

One minister after another finished speaking.

Zhuge Wuming suddenly stood up and bowed, "Report to Your Majesty, I have something to do to report."

Um?

Zhuge Wuming stood up and attracted Li Cheng's attention.

He came back to his senses and looked at Zhuge Wuming.

There is an inexplicable smell of mutual sympathy in my eyes.

If the rebels really attacked the city, this good comrade could also gain a huge fortune, right?

What a pity.

Now that he is still here, this good comrade will definitely not dare to continue to do anything.

However, at this critical moment, what are the good comrades doing?

Li Cheng said curiously: "Authentication."

Zhuge Wuming nodded and then said, "Report to Your Majesty, there is only one person in the rebel army this time. That person is Cao Tong in Hezhong area. Now the rebel Cao Tong has been detained. I would like to ask Your Majesty to order how to deal with the rebel Cao Tong."

Rebel Cao Tong?

Killing is...

etc.

A traitor?

Rebel!

Li Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of heat rose in his heart.

What he wants is this kind of traitor.

Now there are countless treacherous officials, so it is better to have a traitor.

If he did not blame the past and instead gave the rebel Cao Tong the power again, would the other party build up momentum and rebel again?

"Bring people up."

Li Cheng ordered.

He wanted to see if this traitor was really unruly and never repent.

If you have the intention of repentance, you will not be given power when you beat him to death. If you turn from a traitor to a loyal minister, it will be difficult.

If you don’t repent, that’s better, you can become a traitor again.

His orders were passed.

After a while, Cao Tong walked into Hantian Palace under the leadership of two Yulin soldiers.

At this moment, Cao Tong was bound by ropes, dressed in rags, his hair was scattered, and his face was pale and as if he was very weak.

It's completely no longer as good as before.

Cao Tong entered the hall and looked at the more than 20 generals fiercely, hoping to eat them all.

It's these twenty bastards!

He originally thought that these teammates had a good time, but he didn't expect that they would act the whole time!

If it weren't for them, he might have been the king of a country now!

"The rebel Cao Tong, when you meet His Majesty, you won't kneel down!"

Seeing that Cao Tong had no intention of kneeling, Eunuch Xu stood up and scolded loudly.

However, Cao Tong ignored it and looked at Li Cheng unscrupulously, his eyes full of coldness.

When he saw the emperor sitting on the dragon throne.

It just so happened that the emperor's eyes were also looking at him.

The eyes of both sides were in the air...

Cao Tong's whole body was stiff, why...

Why did he feel that there was a sense of appreciation in the emperor's eyes?

No, it's impossible, it should be because he's thinking too much.

He is a traitor.

Unless the emperor is stupid, he will appreciate him.

Li Cheng really admires this Cao Tong very much.

I like this kind of person.

Rebel.

Unruly.

He has to find a way to keep this person, and he can save him first, and then he can give power to make the other party come back!

However, it is best to make sure that Cao Tong really has the opposite intention, so as not to make any mistakes.

Thinking of this, Li Cheng spoke slowly and asked, "Cao Tong, do you know your guilt?"

The eyes of civil and military officials fell on Cao Tong in unison.

Cao Tong was not afraid at all, and said in a slightly weak tone: "Why are you guilty of success and defeat?"

Li Cheng smiled faintly and asked again: "The late emperor gave you the position of general, but you are not enterprising. You treacherously rebel against the king and rebel against each other. Tell me, why are you innocent?"

Cao Tong curled a desolate smile on his lips and said, "Don't say it here. If I lose, I will lose. Is it useful to talk about so many things? If I have the chance, who doesn't want to be the emperor? Since I fail, I can just deal with it."

If there is a chance, who doesn’t want to be the emperor?

By chance, I don't want to.

Li Cheng narrowed his eyes. Since this Cao Tong still had ambitions, he would definitely let this Cao Tong leave and help the other party make a comeback.

He thought for a moment and said, "If you are given another chance, will you give up rebellion?"

Cao Tong hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and said, "No!"

"very good!"

Li Cheng's eyes lit up and waved his hand and said, "Transfer my will. From now on, all crimes of the General Cao of the Hezhong Army will be pardoned! The official position will be temporarily removed, and the official position will be arranged at a date!"

His words came out.

The entire Hantian Palace fell into a strange silence.

The civil and military officials all opened their eyes wide, and they couldn't recover.

The emperor actually pardoned the crime of rebellion?

Especially Cao Tong, whose mouth was big, showed a flush on his pale face, and he didn't understand the emperor's intention.

After a moment.

A sound rang out.

"Your Majesty, you must not, you can..."

Liao Yun, the Minister of Rites, took a step and was about to say no. Before he finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at the silent civil and military officials, and silently said, "Your Majesty, I have never spoken."

He took a step back and returned to the queue.

These bastards want to sell him again.

impossible!

Since you don't speak, I won't say anything.

Li Cheng looked at Liao Yun in surprise, and then continued, "Since there is nothing wrong, let's retreat to the court."

He needs to go back and think carefully about what power he gives to make Cao Tong rise quickly.

"Retreat the court!!"

Eunuch Xu made a sharp sound at the top of his voice.

All civil and military officials slowly withdrew from Hantian Palace.

Li Cheng also walked towards the Tai Chi Palace and thought about Cao Tong's affairs.

...

Cao Tong looked confused, from inside the hall to outside the hall, and from outside the hall to outside the palace.
To be continued...
