Chapter 497
Cao Cao hurried to the palace with Mao Ba Nian and Henha.
As soon as I entered the palace gate, I saw Dong Cheng coming out of the palace in a swagger. He had already undergone the inspection of the guards and was about to leave.
Cao Cao stopped in place for a while, adjusted his mindset before he met him, clasped his fists and said, "Uncle Dong, what a coincidence, I don't know what happened when I entered the palace so early?"
Seeing Cao Cao, Dong Cheng's heart suddenly jumped, but there was no sign of it on his face. He smiled and said, "I have prepared some supplements for Concubine Dong. I have to force me to send them, and it won't be enough to be one hour later."
"Cao Sikong doesn't know that I was tossed and didn't sleep all night last night. I was dragged down and stayed at home and was uneasy. Women, you should understand."
"Understand, understand, understand very much."
Cao Cao replied with a deep feeling, after carefully looking, he fixed his eyes on Dong Cheng's jade belt, and smiled and said, "The jade belt is good, but it doesn't seem to match your clothes."
Dong Cheng felt a stern and said with a forced smile: "I'm not sending supplements to Concubine Dong, so His Majesty repaid his favor and rewarded the Xiaguan with this jade belt."
"Isn't that really being told by that brat, right?"
Cao Cao was slightly shocked and smiled more amiable, saying, "Can you lend me some view?"
"This..." Dong Cheng's body stiffened and hesitated a little.
There is really a problem.
Cao Cao stared at him with a smile, as if saying, "I'll just look at it, it doesn't matter if I can't bear it."
Dong Cheng knew clearly that this smile was more terrifying than anger. He said half a word of no words popped out of his mouth, so he would not be able to leave alive today.
Helplessly, I had to take off my jade belt and hand it over.
Cao Cao took the jade belt and looked carefully. He didn't find any problems. He was about to return it when a strange feeling suddenly came from his fingertips.
"Um?"
Cao Cao looked up at Dong Cheng, then carefully pinched the jade belt.
Sure enough, the middle position of the jade belt is thicker than that of other places, and it seems that something is hidden.
He pulled out the sword from Xu Chu's waist, picked the thread ends of the gap in the jade belt, and pulled out a piece of yellow silk divination from it.
Cao Cao did not check it, but instead mentioned Juanbu to Dong Cheng and asked, "What is this?"
Dong Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "I believe Sikong also knew that His Majesty has no children since he got married for many years. He didn't think anything was there before. After reading the medical journal sent to Xuzhou, he realized the seriousness of the problem. He wrote down his symptoms and asked me to help me ask."
"Um?"
Cao Cao opened the silk divination and saw that he was indeed writing about men's health problems in medical journals, and he was confused.
After a long time, he said with a cold face: "Why should I hide it in the jade belt?"
Dong Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "Everyone is a man. Whoever gets this disease will talk out, hold it in his hand, and it will be embarrassing to be discovered by the custodians during the cross-examination."
"It's nothing, but the emperor is the Supreme Lord after all. If someone else knows that he has this disease, what is His Majesty's face and what is the dignity of the great man?"
Cao Cao: "..." It makes sense, but I always feel that something is wrong.
After asking a few more questions, Dong Cheng pushed all the blame on Liu Xie, and it seemed that Liu Xie was already terminally ill and would soon be in the world.
Cao Cao always felt something was wrong and could not find the problem. He could not arrest the uncle of the current dynasty because of a medical record, right?
To be on the safe side, he checked Dong Cheng again, and didn't even let go of his outer robe, underwear, shoes, and even his hair bun. He checked all the places where he could hide things but couldn't find what he wanted. He had no choice but to give up and said, "I'll disturb you, just leave the silk to me. I'll send Doctor Hua to the palace to treat His Majesty himself."
Dong Cheng put on his clothes, stared at the silk in his hand for a moment, and compromised, "Okay, then there will be no Solo Sikong, but this matter involves the reputation of the emperor, I hope Sikong..." Cao Cao smiled and said, "Don't worry, no one else will know."
"Goodbye."
Dong Cheng bowed his fists and stood up and left.
Cao Cao turned around and looked at his back until Dong Cheng walked out of the palace gate and disappeared, and then ordered: "I always feel something is wrong. In the past eight years, I have been staring at him in the past few days, and I will report it immediately if there is anything strange."
"Here."
Mao had to accept the order in Ba Nian.
Besides, Dong Cheng turned around after leaving the palace, looked at the corner of the palace gate and curled a creepy sneer, then got into the car and ordered: "Go to the first floor and have a meal first."
After the poisoning incident, the first floor was closed for a while and the business not only did not decline, but was more popular than before.
Because the lesson of poisoning is too profound, in order not to be targeted again, the exclusive private room on the third floor is completely open to the public and anyone can book it.
As soon as the news came out, the booking people immediately lined up, wanting to see what the treasure land that almost killed Cao Ang would look like.
Dong Cheng did not go to the private room on the second and third floor, nor did he make an appointment with any customers, so he just ate a simple meal in the lobby on the first floor.
After eating, I drove around to various pharmacies. After the transfer, I went to the medical school outside the city. If nothing unexpected happened, I was stopped by the soldiers of the garrison regiment.
After the negotiations were fruitless, they did not bother me. They took a bus back to Xudu and went to the place where they often appeared. They rushed back to the mansion in the evening.
After having supper with my family, I locked myself in the study on the grounds of studying.
As soon as he closed the door, he couldn't wait to take out the scissors from the drawer, took off his boots and picked the threads of the soles one by one, pulled out a piece from the soles and folded it into a square shape, and the yellow silk buds with countless needle holes were pierced.
When I opened it, it reads: I heard that human relations are great, father and son are the first, the distinction between high and low, the king and minister are the most important, and the powerful ministers and thieves come from the cabinet and are indiscriminately involved in assisting the ranks, which are actually a crime of deception.
It is not my intention to connect the party, corrupt the court's principles, and reward and punishment.
I worry about the world all day long and night, and I fear that the world will be in danger.
You are the elders of the country and my closest relatives. You can remember the difficulties of Emperor Gaozu's business, combine the martyrs who are loyal and righteous, destroy the treacherous party, restore the country, and eliminate violence before they arise. My ancestors are very lucky.
He was so sad that he broke his fingers and wrote an edict to him. He was careful again and did not let anyone bear it. He was ordered in the winter of the third year of Jian'an.
Every word is written by blood donation.
Dong Cheng read it three times in a row and she burst into tears.
After crying, I picked up the scissors, cut the other shoe open, and pulled out a exactly the same edict from it.
This morning, he did not take the initiative to go to the palace to deliver supplements, but was called by Liu Xie.
After entering the palace, Liu Xie did not meet him in the imperial study room as usual, but took him to Dong Guiren's bedroom.
After driving all the idle people away, after only himself and Concubine Dong were left in the bedroom, Liu Xie stared at him and said straight to the point: "Dong Qing, I want to eliminate the thief of Cao, are you willing to help me?"
What can Dong Cheng say? Not to mention that Liu Xie is both his monarch and his son-in-law, just from other aspects, he has been tolerant of the Cao family's father and son for a long time.
After a moment of silence, after digesting the information, he immediately expressed his loyalty to Liu Xie.
Then Concubine Dong handed him a pair of boots. The daughter naturally knew how big the size of shoes her father wore. She told him clearly that the edict was in the soles of the shoe. In order not to be noticed, the edict and the soles were sewn together, and the naked eye could not find it out.
After changing into his shoes, Liu Xie copied some messy male medical records with a medical journal in his arms, and ordered Concubine Dong to sew it in a jade belt and gave it to Dong Cheng.
Looking at the two identical edicts on the table, Dong Cheng couldn't help but be amazed by Liu Xie's approach.
He used the fake edict in the jade belt to cover up his eyes and ears. Even if Cao Cao had some suspicion after he was searched, he would subconsciously think that the edict had been searched and could not have been found anymore, so he relaxed his vigilance.
This is true. Cao Cao searched all over his body, and even touched the upper part of his shoe inch by inch, but only missed the soles of his shoe.
"Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde, your death is approaching."
