In the palace.

When Liu Hong saw Zhang Rang interrupting him, he was very surprised. He scolded loudly with a gloomy face: "You are a slave, are you trying to intercede with that traitor?!"

"Your Majesty has learned clearly that this slave and the traitors are incompatible with each other!"

Hearing this, Zhang Rang first expressed his loyalty, and then explained to Liu Hong: "I am not trying to intercede with him, but this matter is just reported by my spies, and there is no real evidence.

If we send people to arrest Li Zhi now, and if his accomplices see that the situation is not good and send everyone outside the city away, won't we be unable to do anything against him?"

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Hong felt that what Zhang Rang said was reasonable, and the expression on his face softened slightly.

"Does your Majesty have any clever ideas to subjugate this traitor?"

"Your Majesty, the only way now is for us to hold our ground and secretly deploy our troops to ambush outside the city.

Once Li knew that everyone was shouting, they swarmed up and captured him. We will have witnesses and evidence to see what else he has to say."

Liu Hong was overjoyed when he heard this and glanced at Zhang Rang with admiration: "I really didn't expect you to be so talented. This plan is very clever."

Having said this, he thought for a moment: "Do you know how many people the traitor has?"

"According to the report from the slave spy, Li Zhi only gathered a few hundred people in order to cover up others' eyes and ears. Then they sneaked into the city, captured the palace, and then held the emperor hostage to order the world!"

"snort!"

Liu Hong snorted coldly when he heard this.

"Such a traitor is really hateful. If he really succeeds, wouldn't I become someone else's puppet?!"

At this point, Liu Hong's eyes sharpened and he ordered Zhang Rang: "You must go to the Northern Army and issue an edict at once.

Order: The Lieutenant of the Zhongbao School will lead three thousand elite soldiers to quietly leave the city tonight and ambush outside the city. When those traitors plot a rebellion, they will capture them immediately!"

After saying that, he thought about it and felt something was wrong.

"In addition, let him select three thousand elite soldiers to enter the palace to protect my safety."

"Slave, you obey!"

Zhang Rang was overjoyed when he heard this. He said "I obey" and then turned to issue the edict.

Liu Hong looked at Zhang Rang's leaving figure with gloomy eyes and murmured to himself bitterly: "I am so magnanimous. I don't blame you for your crime, but you want to rebel?! You are really a traitor!"

Speaking of this, Liu Hong thought of his arrangement and thought that he would be able to capture the traitors in a few days, so he was determined.

He clapped his hands, called all the beauties and singers, and went off to have fun again.

Zhang Rang walked outside the hall at this time, took a long breath, looked up at the sky, and murmured to himself in an undetectable voice: "Hmph...

Our family not only wants to kill the old thief Cao Jie, but also you, the so-called Sanjue Young Master, must die with our family!

In this way, no one in the world will know that this matter was done by our family. Otherwise, how would you let our family sleep?

Our family will not let you die in vain. Isn't your wish to kill the old thief Cao Jie?

Our family has complied with your wishes, that is, during the New Year and festivals, our family will have people pay homage to you, Mr. Sanjue, have a good trip...!"

Having said this, Zhang Rang laughed heartily.

Four days later, on a street not far from the palace, a restaurant was built on the roof of a restaurant.

"Why haven't you come out? Why haven't you come...?! Could something have gone wrong?"

Li Zhi, Cao Cao and the other five people all climbed on the inside of the roof, exposing their heads and quietly looking at the street in front of them.

Li Zhi saw that Cao Jie hadn't come out of the palace yet, so he was very anxious. He kept chattering there and became a little annoyed by what the others said.

Seeing that he was a little anxious, Cao Cao comforted him and said, "Xing brother, don't worry, the edict written by brother Wen Ruo is perfect.

And Cao sent a dead soldier trained by his grandfather when he was still alive to deliver the edict to the palace guards.

Everything is flawless, Cao Jie won't see through it, we can just wait patiently.

Speaking of which, Xing Zhixian is really smart. Presumably at this time, Zhang Rang's people ambushing outside the city are still waiting for the so-called rebellion."

Li Zhi shook his head when he heard Cao Cao's comforting words.

"If I don't keep an eye on cooperating with a scheming and cunning person like Zhang Rang, wouldn't I let him sell it and have to count the money for him?

But I didn't expect him to actually do this. He was just prepared.

However, since then, after killing Cao Jie, I will go to the palace to clear the suspicion."

While a few of them were talking, a luxurious carriage was slowly approaching in the distance. There were only a dozen guards around, guarding the carriage as it walked majestically through the street.

"Here it comes!" Guo Jia's sharp eyes saw the carriage at a glance and reminded the others in a low voice.

When the others heard this, they immediately stopped talking and looked straight at the carriage.

Cao Jie'an was sitting in the carriage, feeling very happy. When he thought that the priceless brewing method would be in his hands today, he was extremely happy.

When he was feeling happy, the carriage suddenly stopped and almost threw him out of the car. Cao Jie was furious: "What's the matter?! Why did it stop suddenly? It almost threw our house down!"

At this time, I heard a guard outside the carriage reply: "Forgive me, Mr. Cao!

A cart carrying grain and grass came from the opposite side, but suddenly the shaft of the cart broke and fell on the road, making me unable to move forward."

"A mere untouchable dared to block our car! We drove him off the road and overturned his carriage!" Cao Jie said, looking a little angry.

"Here!"

The guard responded and walked towards the carriage that fell on the ground in front of him.

Seeing two or three people repairing the shaft next to the carriage, he angrily yelled at them, "Do you know whose carriage you stopped today?"

This is the head of the Ten Constant Attendants, Cao Jie, Duke Cao’s car. It has delayed Duke Cao’s important events. I want your heads, so get out of here!”

As he spoke, the guards stepped forward and pushed them away.

"Yes, yes... I'll leave right now... I'll leave right now...!"

Several people on the side of the carriage responded, usually with their heads lowered, and their hands reaching towards the carriage, as if they were trying to push their own cars away.

At this moment, there was a flash of cold light, and the guard's head soared into the sky, and a fountain of blood spurted out from the rest of his neck and shins.

"Do it!" The men beside the carriage took down their weapons from the carriage, shouted loudly, and rushed straight to the front of Cao Jie's carriage.

At this moment, about thirty or forty people rushed out from the shops on both sides of the road, all of them covered their faces and holding simple knives in their hands.

These people didn't say anything after they came out. Under the leadership of three burly men, they silently rushed towards Cao Jie's carriage.

The leader was none other than Guan Yu. He was holding a Mo Dao that Li Zhi had ordered for him, just to avoid others judging his identity through the weapon.

"There are assassins! Escort!"

The man who looked like the leader of Cao Jie's guard shouted loudly, organized everyone to protect the carriage, and hurriedly retreated.

The man's shouts caught Guan Yu's attention, and he rushed forward quickly.

Arriving in front of the guard leader's horse, Guan Yu jumped up fiercely, swung his knife round, widened his eyes, and shouted: "Come to death with me!"

A cold light flashed like a thunderbolt, and there was only a "clang" sound. The leader of the guard had some skills and blocked Guan Yu's Mo Dao with his long spear.

When Guan Yu saw him blocking the horse, he did not hesitate. With a wave of his hands, the sword turned towards the horse's body and struck down.

Only a scream of "Hiss Liu Liu..." was heard.

The horse that the guard leader was riding was killed by Guan Yu with a single blow.

"Uh-huh!" A muffled sound came from the mouth of the guard leader, but it was the horse he was riding that violently threw him down when he died.

However, he didn't care about that much at this time. He suddenly got up from the ground and looked at Guan Yu who was coming towards him.

Guan Yu came to him silently at this time, and with a wave of his sword, he slashed at his neck.

He saw that Guan Yu was very anxious to strike with the sword, so he rolled on the spot, and a lazy donkey rolled around to avoid the sword.

When Guan Yu saw that he had dodged, he used the force of his sword. The sword turned behind him and made a hidden sword gesture. The sword that was originally on the right moved to the left.

Guan Yu turned his sword and slashed at the leader of the guards with his backhand, only to see a flash of light from the sword.

"Clang, clang, clang!"
