Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

Cao Pi Mansion.

In a closed secret room.

Cao Pi is wearing a jade crown and royal robes, swaying left and right in front of the bronze mirror, admiring his kingly style.

"My brother is born with a royal demeanor, and he looks even more extraordinary when he wears this royal uniform!"

Cao Zhen on the side gave a thumbs up and couldn't help but flatter him.

Cao Pi's eyes narrowed into a straight line, and his brows couldn't hide the arrogance.

He seemed to be determined to win this mutiny, and he secretly made it a few days ago. This set of royal robes is prepared to be worn at the succession ceremony after the event is completed.

"But second brother, after the mutiny is successful, there will be a fight between second brother and Zijian, so we have to prepare early."

Cao Zhen said worriedly again.

"Zijian is okay as a poet, but he is too indecisive to be a king. He is not worthy of competing with me."

Cao Pi snorted disdainfully, and a cold light flashed in his eyes,"When the matter is completed, you can lead a team of men and kill him while I'm in the chaos!"

Cao Zhen looked stern, obviously he didn't expect that Cao Pi would kill Cao Zhi.

"Second brother, is there no other way?"

Cao Zhen couldn't help but ask.

Cao Pi said coldly:"We have already launched a mutiny and overturned the table. What is there to worry about? Naturally, we will do everything we can to get rid of him and Cao Yuan!"

Cao Zhenruo realized something, but sighed:"It's not difficult to kill him, but I'm worried that the mother will blame him. After all, Zijian is your brother, the second brother, and the mother's son."

"Since ancient times, those who serve the world do not care about their families!"

"In order to help us rise to power, our mother did not hesitate to put our father to death. I killed Cao Zhi just to imitate her."

"What right does she have to blame me?"

Cao Pi said disapprovingly.

Cao Zhen was speechless and couldn't help but fell silent.

Cao Pi continued to admire his kingly style in the bronze mirror, pretending to be domineering in his eyebrows

"Cao Yuan, no matter how clever you are, you won't think that I will overturn the table and launch a mutiny."

"The Cao Wei Kingdom that you worked so hard to build for your father has become my wedding dress!"

"Hahaha——"

Cao Pi became more and more proud as he thought about it, and couldn't help laughing loudly.

Sudden.

Wu Zhi climbed up and down, broke into the secret pavilion, and shouted:"Second Young Master, something is not going well, something is going wrong."~~"

Cao Pi's expression changed and he asked:"What happened? Why are you so panicked?"

"Our informants in the palace reported back that Prince Zijian reported our rebellion to the King of Wei."

"The King of Wei was furious and ordered Cao Yuan to put Queen Bian in prison!"

"Now Cao Yuan is mobilizing troops to search the city for famous people who participated in the mutiny."

"That Taishi Ci was leading a team of troops to attack the young master's house!"

Wu Zhi rolled to the ground and told the bad news in an almost tearful voice.

Cao Pi changed color in shock, his feet went soft, and he collapsed and sat down.

Cao Zhen hurriedly stepped forward and supported Cao Pi.

"how so?"

"That good-for-nothing Zijian, is he crazy? Why would he defect in the face of battle?"

"That idiot, he wants to kill me!"

Cao Pi, who came back to his senses, was extremely sad and angry, and roared and cursed. Cao Zhen said with a bitter face:"Brother, it's useless to scold Cao Zhi now. My plan has been exposed. Once I am imprisoned, my father will never die. He won't spare us lightly, he will definitely kill us!"

Cao Pi shuddered, and the anger on his face immediately turned into fear.

After a moment's hesitation, he struggled to stand upright and shouted:"We can't stay in Yecheng, escape from the city quickly!"

Before he finished speaking, the servants outside came to report, and the soldiers and horses led by Tai Shici arrived and were surrounding the mansion.

Cao Pi's heart skipped a beat, and he staggered, almost unsteady.

Cao Zhen and Wu Zhi both supported him.

Cao Zhen sighed bitterly:"Brother, it seems that the sky is going to destroy us, and we can't escape even if we don't have wings."

Endless sadness and despair shrouded Cao Pi.

He knew that he had failed.

He was completely defeated.

If he just failed in the fight for the throne, he might still hope that Cao Yuan would be generous and let him live after he succeeded to the throne in the future.

But now , the mutiny plan failed, even if Cao Yuan didn't kill him, Cao Cao couldn't spare him.

If he was captured and imprisoned, he would only die!

"How could I, Cao Pi, die like this? I am not willing to lose to that kid Cao Yuan. I am not willing to die.~~"

Cao Pi gritted his teeth, feeling endless resentment in his heart.

Sudden.

He rolled his eyes and an idea flashed through his mind.

Afterwards.

Cao Pi then put away his grief and anger, drew his sword in his hand, and said proudly:"Zi Dan, even if you and my brother die, we will never die in the hands of Cao Yuan. We will defend the palace and kill him vigorously!"

Suddenly His heroic and tragic sentiments immediately aroused Cao Zhen’s passion.

"Okay, I, Cao Zhen, will accompany my brother to kill him to death!"

Cao Zhen shouted with excitement, drew his sword in his hand, and ran towards the courtyard wall.

Wu Zhi was also desperate, so he could only pick up his weapons and follow Cao Zhen to die.

Cao Pi pretended to wear armor and deliberately delayed.

When everyone waited When everyone left, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly closed the door.

He hurriedly pushed the case away and lifted the floor with difficulty.

A tunnel suddenly appeared in front of him.

It turned out that in order to leave a way out for himself, he , as early as when he stayed in Yecheng, he secretly dug this secret escape route in case of emergency.

"Zidan, Wu Zhi, I'm sorry, I have to ask you to hold back the arresters for me."

"For the sake of the foundation of my Cao family and not falling into the hands of that Cao Yuan, I must keep my useful body in order to have any hope of making a comeback."

"Don't worry, sooner or later I will avenge you!"

Cao Pi felt naturally comforted in his heart, and after secretly swearing, he jumped down the tunnel.

Outside the room, the sound of killings shook the sky.

A quarter of an hour later, the sound of killings fell silent.

The whole courtyard was littered with corpses. , all the recalcitrant slaves were killed.

Wu Zhi died in the battle, while Cao Zhen was hit by several arrows and was eventually captured.

"Cao Zhen, tell me honestly, where is Cao Pi? Tai

Shici asked sharply.

Cao Zhen snorted coldly:"Second brother, he must have died heroically in battle and was killed by your troops. Why do you need to ask me again?" Tai

Shici said in a deep voice:"I have checked all the corpses, but there is no trace of Cao Pi. You should tell me honestly, where is he hiding?""

Cao Zhen looked suspicious, thinking that Cao Pi had clearly declared that he would fight to the death with great vigor, so how could he have disappeared?

Just when he was puzzled, the soldiers rushed over, cupped their hands and said:"General Taishi, we are in the secret pavilion in the backyard. During the trip, a secret passage was discovered that led to the outside of the mansion. Cao Pi must have taken advantage of the chaos and escaped through the secret passage."

Hearing these words,

Cao Zhen's head buzzed, as if he had been slapped in the head, and his expression twisted into a moment of astonishment.
