He saw that the person who saved him this time was Cao Zhi.

Ma Teng couldn't help but be stunned.

He looked at Cao Zhi, who had a calm expression.

He looked at Ma Yunlu again, whose eyes were filled with tears.

Ma Teng understood instantly.

Cao Zhi forgave himself for the sake of his daughter.

The thought of Cao Zhi putting public interests above personal ones makes me feel uncomfortable.

He ignored the important affairs of his family and country because of a woman.

Ma Teng instantly felt disdain for Cao Zhi.

But I still disdain it.

But when I think about being able to survive.

It’s amazing to think that Ma Yunlu holds such a high position in Cao Zhi’s heart.

Ma Teng's brain immediately started working at high speed.

Thinking about how to take advantage of Ma Yunlu's position in Cao Zhi's heart.

To gain more benefits for himself and the Ma family.

The thought that I could turn the tide when I was on the verge of death made me feel happy.

Ma Teng couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth!

"Snapped!"

Cao Zhi slapped Ma Teng directly.

The burning pain immediately brought Ma Teng back to reality.

"I can forgive you this time entirely for Xiao Lu'er's sake. If you dare to do it again, I will kill your entire family!"

Cao Zhi said angrily.

Ma Teng: “…”

He stared at Cao Zhi seriously for three seconds.

Cao Zhi's expression did not seem fake.

Ma Teng said quickly:

"Please rest assured, Fourth Young Master. After this life-or-death experience, I will never dare to have other thoughts again!"

"Snapped!"

Cao Zhi slapped Ma Teng hard again.

To everyone's surprise, Cao Zhi said coldly, "Say it again!!!"

Ma Teng: “…”

"I..." Ma Teng was about to speak.

"Snapped!"

"Think it over first!" Cao Zhi said coldly.

"You brat, how dare you do this!" Ma Teng was furious.

His eyes, as big as copper bells, stared at Cao Zhi intently.

It seemed as if he would jump up and attack Cao Zhi at any time.

As for Cao Zhi, he didn't say anything this time.

Instead, he silently drew the sword from his waist.

Ma Teng: “…”

"I'll give you one last chance. If you dare to do anything evil again, I'll wipe out your entire family immediately!"

Cao Zhi said coldly.

Ma Teng: “…”

……

A quarter of an hour later.

See Ma Teng’s heart.

There is no longer any thought of being an enemy of myself.

Only then did Cao Zhi nod in satisfaction.

He was just about to turn around and tell Jia Xu and the other two.

Said the matter had been resolved satisfactorily.

Just turned around.

Then they saw Jia Xu and the other two looking confused.

Looking at the three people in front of him, they all looked confused.

Cao Zhi touched his nose awkwardly.

Then he winked at Jia Xu.

Jia Xu understood and immediately said with a smile:

"The Fourth Young Master has a broad mind, I admire him!"

"Miss Ma, the Fourth Young Master did all this for you. Please don't let him down!"

Seeing Jia Xu say this.

Tears of emotion immediately flowed from Ma Yunlu's beautiful face.

Because I was moved.

At this moment, she didn't care whether there was anyone around.

She threw herself into Cao Zhi's arms and started crying.

Looking at Ma Yunlu who was crying in his arms because he was so moved.

Cao Zhi couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"The matter is finally resolved!" Cao Zhi thought to himself.

……

The time goes back to two quarters of an hour ago.

Just when Jia Xu and Zhao Yun came with their certificates to identify Ma Teng.

Cao Zhi understood instantly.

A hero like Ma Teng.

It is absolutely wrong. I will not submit obediently and behave myself.

This time, Ma Teng stayed.

Who knows what kind of trouble Ma Teng will cause next time.

And once Ma Teng's plan succeeds.

War is bound to break out again.

If you want to minimize the risk.

The safest way is to kill Ma Teng directly.

But if he killed Ma Teng, how would he face Ma Yunlu?

Just when Cao Zhi was struggling with this.

In Cao Zhi's mind.

Came the system's voice.

"Ding, the system has detected that the host is facing a choice and now offers the following three options."

"Choose one, kill Ma Teng and you'll receive a thousand Xiliang war horses!"

"Choice two: pretend to release Ma Teng first, then secretly have someone kill him. You'll get an Oscar-level acting skill!"

"Choose three, forgive Ma Teng, and you'll gain the ability to read minds (you can understand a person's thoughts by looking into their eyes within a ten-foot radius)!"

These are the three options given by the system.

After seeing the options.

Cao Zhi didn't even think about it.

I chose option three.

This is mind reading after all!

This is why Cao Zhi kicked the sword out of Ma Teng's hand.

And because of Cao Zhi's actions.

Allowed Cao Zhi to acquire the ability to read minds.

Just when Cao Zhi was very happy about this.

But it was discovered.

Ma Teng at that time.

Although on the surface I am grateful to myself.

But inside.

But he despised himself for having neglected the important affairs of the family and the country for a woman.

He was also thinking about how to take advantage of Ma Yunlu's position in his heart.

To gain capital for the Ma family's future comeback.

Cao Zhi had no choice but to slap Ma Teng in the face to teach him a lesson and make him change his unrealistic ideas.

Under the coercion and inducement of Cao Zhi.

Ma Teng finally gave up his unrealistic idea.

……

A quarter of an hour later.

After comforting Ma Yunlu.

Cao Zhi then thought about meeting these Qiang tribe leaders.

After all, having 300,000 Qiang people remain in Guanzhong is no small matter.

Before leaving.

Cao Zhi looked at the tied-up figure.

He looked at Ma Teng again, who was very afraid of him at the moment.

Cao Zhi said coldly:

"General Ma, the life and death of the Ma family depends entirely on your choice!"

"I'll have the Ma Mansion continue to be sealed off. When you figure it out, tell me!"

After saying this, Cao Zhi and his companions left.

……

After Cao Zhi and others left.

Ma Tie rushed in hurriedly.

Just came in.

Then I saw the tied-up figure in the room.

Ma Tie was shocked at first.

Then he saw his father's cheeks which were swollen as high as a mountain.

Ma Tiesun was instantly furious.

Then he couldn't help but complain:

"We were bullied before Cao's army entered Chang'an, and we were still bullied after Cao's army entered Chang'an. If that's the case, then isn't it the same as if Cao's army hadn't come at all?"

"Father, let's go back to Liangzhou. Chang'an is not a suitable place for us!"

"Snapped!"

Ma Tie had just finished speaking.

Ma Teng slapped him hard on the face.

"Don't talk for now, let me think about it..."

Ma Teng said in a deep voice.

Ma Tie: “…”

……

Weiyang Palace.

It was originally the imperial palace of the Western Han Dynasty.

After Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an.

All government affairs were handled in the front hall of the Weiyang Palace.

Later, Li Jue, Guo Si, Ma Teng and Han Sui occupied Chang'an.

I also deal with family and national affairs here.

When Cao Zhi, Ma Yunlu, Jia Xu and Zhao Yun came here.

This place is already crowded with nearly two hundred clan leaders, both big and small.

"Meet the young lady!"

The moment I saw Ma Yunlu.

These Qiang people bowed in greeting.

It can be seen that the Ma family still holds a very high status in their minds.

As for Cao Zhi.

Because I took off the disguise on my face on the way here.

So these people did not know Cao Zhi.

At Jia Xu's reminder.

Only then did they wake up from their dream.

They all knelt down and kowtowed to Cao Zhi.

Although the etiquette is grand.

Even worse than Ma Yunlu.

But Cao Zhi could feel it clearly.

They are sincere to Ma Yunlu, but perfunctory to themselves.

Although Cao Zhi was dissatisfied with this, he could do nothing about it.

"However, as long as they no longer become enemies with the Han, they can do whatever they want!"

As soon as he thought of this, Cao Zhi made a decision.

Use mind reading to screen them out!

So Cao Zhi gave the order immediately.

Let these Qiang tribe leaders line up in a long line.

Walk in front of yourself one by one.
