Therefore, he is the most loved.
I saw Cao Chong sobbing and saying, "My father died in exchange for the chance of our lives because he wanted us to live well."
"The child will follow his father's last wish, serve his mother well, and live peacefully..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Pi glared at him and accused him. "Brother Chong, how could you have such cowardly thoughts! How can you not avenge your father's murder!"
"I, I..."
Cao Chong's face turned red and he was at a loss.
But the next moment Cao Pi's voice suddenly stopped, because a long sword pierced his chest.
Cao Pi lowered his head and looked at his chest.
Then he looked ahead again.
The young face was full of confusion and incomprehension.
"Father, you..."
Cao Cao looked at his second son with pity and pain, and pulled the sword out of Cao Pi's chest.
Cao Pi spit out a mouthful of blood and fell down.
The look in his eyes soon disappeared.
Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi, and Cao Chong were all frightened by Cao Cao's sudden move. They didn't understand why Cao Cao suddenly killed Cao Pi!
That's his biological son!
Cao Zhang asked with a trembling voice, "Father, you, why did you kill your second brother..."
"Because he is too ambitious."
Cao Cao looked down at the blood on the sword. Bright as Snow The sword reflected his pale face.
"Chong'er is right. As a father, I hope you can live a good life and continue the last bloodline of my Cao Clan."
"That Son of Heaven is too terrifying. You are no match for him. Your disobedience and hatred will bring you disaster."
"So..."
Cao Cao held the blood-stained sword and looked up at Cao Zhang.
The sword pierced his chest again.
Cao Zhang died.
The blood was sprinkled on Cao Cao's body, making him look extremely ferocious, like an evil ghost.
"Father..."
Cao Zhi's legs were weak, and he didn't even have the strength to cry, so he knelt on the ground.
Cao Cao slowly walked up to him, swung the blade again, and killed Cao Zhi in the same way. The third corpse fell to the ground.
"Your fourth brother is too weak. He has a weak will and is easily deceived by others, leading him to follow the same path as your second and third brothers."
Cao Cao said as if talking to himself while drawing his sword.
At this moment, he had tears streaming down his face.
Killing his three favorite sons was even more uncomfortable than killing him, but he had to do it.
This is all for the continuation of the Cao Clan bloodline!
The intercession of Xu You and Chen Gong will definitely preserve the bloodline of the Cao Clan, but if one of the remaining bloodlines harbors disloyal intentions, Cao Clan will be bloody purged by Son of Heaven!
He knew the characters of his sons, so he chose to let Xu You save Cao Chong's life.
But he couldn't bear it, so he called them here today and gave them one last chance to make a choice.
The result was exactly what he expected.
Only Cao Chong was the youngest, the smartest, and the one who understood his thoughts best, and chose the path that would allow him to survive.
"Haha, hahahaha..."
Cao Cao looked at the corpses on the ground, looked up to the sky and laughed with tears in his eyes, his voice full of infinite sadness.
He Cao Cao claimed to be a hero, but in the end he ended up like this.
Is this the retribution for his sins in the first half of his life?
Cao Cao smiled and suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood. He could no longer stand and fell down.
"Father..."
Cao Chong was already crying. Looking at Cao Cao's appearance, he wanted to step forward but did not dare to.
Cao Cao had no strength left, raised his hand to Cao Chong, and said with difficulty, "Chong'er, come here..."
Cao Chong hesitated again and again, but finally suppressed the fear in his heart, slowly walked to Cao Cao and knelt down.
Cao Cao stroked Cao Chong's cheek with his blood-stained hand and whispered, "When your father dies, cut off his head and go find Xu You with your mother."
"He, he will help you... survive... ahem..."
Cao Cao coughed violently, vomited blood again, and was breathless.
Cao Chong cried, "Father, the child dare not."
Hearing this, Cao Cao got the strength from nowhere and grabbed Cao Chong's arm suddenly, with an astonishing ferocity in his eyes.
"You must dare!"
"Only in this way can you survive!"
"Promise me!"
Cao Chong felt his arm hurt from being scratched, and his father's eyes were so sharp that he didn't dare to look at him.
He shed tears and nodded heavily.
After forcing Cao Chong to agree, Cao Cao lay down heavily on the ground, as if all the burdens on his body had been lifted.
"Don't... don't blame your father for being cruel."
"In the future, no one will protect you from the wind and rain... You have to grow up quickly. Cao Clan's hope is... all on you..."
Cao Cao After saying this last sentence intermittently.
The look in his eyes completely disappeared.
The empty eyes reflected the blue sky and a lone eagle hovering in the sky.
Cao Cao has gone through his life.
Among the many aging people, some people are like stars in the sky, always shining with a light that you cannot avoid in the quiet dark night. Their light seems very light, but every time they bloom, they are so dazzling.
Regardless of whether they are heroes or villains, they will eventually be covered by the dust of time and turned into a thin page or pages in history books, which will be turned under the fingertips of future generations.
But at least, he existed.
Chapter 479 Emperor Xian of Han was captured, Changsha city was destroyed
"Father--!"
As Cao Cao completely lost his breath, Cao Chong felt so sad that he lay on top of Cao Cao's body and cried bitterly.
Losing his father and three brothers in one day had a great impact on Cao Chong's young mind, and made him feel so lonely and helpless.
My father is gone, and so are my brothers.
Who else can he rely on?
Suddenly, Cao Chong seemed to have thought of something, got up from the ground, and stumbled towards Lady Ding's Side Chamber.
"Mother, I still have mother..."
Cao Chong pushed open the door of her mother's room and was about to call out, but was stunned the next moment.
Because inside Side Chamber, Lady Ding was lying quietly in a pool of blood, no longer making any sound, and there was a hairpin tied around her neck!
She actually chose to commit suicide!
Cao Chong was paralyzed and fell to his knees, the last glimmer of hope in his heart completely shattered.
On the other side, Xu You waited in the hospital for a long time, but still didn't see Cao Cao come back, and no one brought his head, so he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
"Is he trying to trick me again, but he has actually escaped secretly?"
Xu You murmured in his heart. Although he felt that Cao Cao was unlikely to do this, he was still a little worried.
After thinking about it, he decided to go to Cao Cao.
So he ordered the guards outside the courtyard to take Emperor Xian of Han into custody, then stepped out of Small Courtyard, who had imprisoned him for a long time, and walked towards Lady Ding's residence.
The guards Cao Cao left for Xu You are all loyal Death Warriors, and they will faithfully execute Cao Cao's orders.
Cao Cao had given them instructions to obey Xu You before leaving, so they would obey Xu You's instructions.
Under the leadership of the guards, Xu You arrived outside Small Courtyard where Lady Ding lived, but before he stepped inside, he smelled a strong smell of blood.
Xu You frowned, then pushed open the courtyard door and entered.
But when he saw the scene inside Small Courtyard clearly, he couldn't help but stiffen, his pupils shrank slightly, and a sincere Shock look appeared on his face.
I saw blood all over the floor and corpses lying around in the courtyard.
Xu You recognized the young corpses among them, they were the sons of Cao Cao, Cao Pi, Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi.
But what made him Shock the most was not this, but when he saw Cao Cao's youngest son, Cao Chong, kneeling next to a corpse, struggling to cut the head with Dagger.
And this corpse is surprisingly Cao Cao!
"W-what are you doing!"
Xu You came back from Shock, scolded sternly, and quickly stepped forward to snatch Dagger away from Cao Chong.
Hearing Xu You's voice, Cao Chong raised his head.
