The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

"What a wonderful mother!"

When Wang Jing spoke with his mother, many people applauded.

"With a mother like that, it's no wonder she could raise someone like Wang Jing!"

Although it wouldn't increase Cao Mao's chances of winning by even a fraction.

But it is precisely because he knew he was going to his death but did so without hesitation that Wang Jing's worth is all the more remarkable.

Cao Cao turned his head and looked at the people beside him.

"Xu Chu, go and find this man, and make proper arrangements for his clansmen. Do not neglect them. If this Wang Jing has already been born, arrange for someone to teach him properly."

"I can't control what happens inside the sky, but I can still make decisions outside the sky."

Not capable?

For Boss Cao now, loyalty is more important!

Abilities can be cultivated, but such loyalty to the emperor is rare!

Xu Chu nodded and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something.

"What about the remaining two?"

The remaining two?

Cao Cao was taken aback at first, but then he realized what was going on.

He was referring to Wang Shen and Wang Ye.

In this celestial realm, how should we deal with those who betrayed Cao Mao without hesitation and pledged their loyalty to Sima Zhao?

Want to kill them? These two might not even be born yet.

Even if they were to be exterminated, it seems like such a crime wouldn't warrant such an execution.

After all, what the two of them did was merely to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune, just like those who are now loyal to Boss Cao.

However, at that time, the Sima family was in power, so they pledged allegiance to the Sima family.

If they were to exterminate the entire clan for this reason, it would be far too cruel, not to mention that Cao Cao was not a kind-hearted person.

However, as the inventory continued, more and more aristocratic officials sided with the Sima family.

It would be easy to exterminate the clans of these two individuals, but it would not be worth it if it caused other people from prestigious families to feel insecure.

"These two need not be concerned. As for the matter of the Heavenly Canopy being revealed, apart from the Sima family, all those who have contributed will be rewarded, and the rest can be forgiven."

After a brief moment of thought, Cao Cao waved his hand and said.

From a personal perspective, he wanted to kill.

Cao Mao trusted them so much, yet these two turned around and betrayed him.

Knowing Cao's temperament, he not only had to kill him, but also exterminate his entire family and clan to quell his hatred!

But he can't do that, at least not now.

After suppressing his murderous intent, he refocused his attention on the sky.

In the vast imperial palace, Cao Mao felt he could only trust these five people.

But he never expected that no sooner had he finished explaining his plan than two people would betray him.

Fortunately, even without anyone betraying him, he never truly believed he could wrest the power belonging to the emperor back from the Sima family.

He knew perfectly well that the real chance to turn the tide lay only in the period between Sima Shi's death and the time before power was handed over to Sima Zhao.

Once he missed that opportunity, he would never be able to defeat the Sima family again.

His long-planned action was never a wishful attempt to seize power.

He knew better than Wang Jing what would become of Duke Zhao of Lu.

If he were to be fortunate enough to kill Sima Zhao, he would naturally do everything in his power to reclaim the authority that belonged to the emperor.

If he can't kill them, he'll force what could only happen in the shadows into the open, right before everyone's eyes!

"Truly fierce!"

By this point, many people had already figured out Cao Mao's plan.

"Now I understand why you all keep saying that the Sima family's accession to the throne was illegitimate and that their rule is unstable!"

Liu Bang exclaimed in amazement.

"Even if Sima Yi were to rise from the dead, he could never have foreseen that Cao Mao would emerge just as Cao Wei was on its last legs!"

Even Ying Zheng couldn't help but admire it.

"At first I thought it was because Sima Zhao was incompetent."

"But now it seems that if Sima Zhao were truly incompetent, he would not have been able to so easily hand over the position of Grand General and stabilize the court after Sima Shi's death."

"Not to mention him, no one else could have imagined that Cao Mao would make such a decision!"

Above the sky, everyone who understood Cao Mao's purpose was full of praise.

Tragic, and resolute!

The text was then transformed into images.

At dawn, Cao Mao ordered Li Zhao and Jiao Bo to ambush several hundred men outside the palace gates.

Among these people were servants and a small number of guards; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them a rabble.

This was all the power he could mobilize as the Emperor of Wei.

It was also his last hope, not his hope.

If Sima Zhao were careless and could have killed him when he entered the palace for court, he might have had a one in ten thousand chance to restore order to the court.

However, Wang Shen and Wang Ye informed on him early on, so Sima Zhao used the excuse of a rainstorm to skip court.

Looking at the gloomy sky, Cao Mao felt extremely heavy-hearted.

This last hope may have been extinguished before it even began.

After Sima Zhao discovered this, he was forced to abdicate within the next few days.

Faced with Jiao Bo's sorrowful expression, he forced a smile.

"Go and fetch me the armor."

"Take that suit of armor that Emperor Taizu wore during his campaigns!"

Afterwards, he went to the inner palace to pay respects to the Empress Dowager, and then worshipped his ancestors in the main hall.

After completing this series of tasks, Jiao Bo draped armor over him, and he boarded the chariot.

"Your Majesty, is this truly the case?"

Uncle Jiao's face was full of sorrow.

"If this is not done, I will have to abdicate in just a few days."

Cao Mao smiled.

"I would rather die as the Duke of Gaogui than live as Emperor Xian of Han!"

"In this palace, Sima Zhao is in charge, but once he breaks out of the palace, I will still be the Emperor of Great Wei!"

Stepping onto the chariot, he seemed to transform back into that spirited and noble village head!

"My dear minister, follow me to punish the traitors!"

At his command, Jiao Bo wiped the water off his face, turned around and shouted.

"Get the thief!"

"Follow Your Majesty to punish the traitor Sima Zhao!"

When Cao Mao rode his chariot out of the palace gate, everyone was stunned.

Although the guards outside the palace gates were members of the Sima family, they dared not make any rash moves in the face of such a situation.

Inside the palace gates, Sima Zhao was in charge; he could dictate to Cao Mao whatever he wanted.

However, once outside the palace gates and standing before a large crowd, Cao Mao was the emperor, and no one could offend the emperor's majesty!

At this point, the Sima family members were completely panicked.

In their view, the change of power in Cao Wei was a foregone conclusion.

Sima Zhao was already preparing for the abdication process. If this incident happened at this time and was not handled properly, they would certainly not escape punishment!

But what can they do?

Someone suggested that the surrounding soldiers force Cao Mao back to the palace.

After all, Jiao Bo and the others who rushed out of the palace gate with him were just a complete rabble.

As long as the emperor returns to the palace gates, the rest can be easily suppressed!

But now we are outside the palace, in the open, with countless eyes watching us.

Cao Mao briefly regained the power of the emperor.

Wherever the emperor's chariot passed, not a single person dared to stand in its way.

Just as he was about to rush out, Sima Zhao's strategist Jia Chong arrived with his troops.

Seeing Cao Mao's nonchalant manner, Jia Chong glanced at Cheng Ji beside him.

"Sima Gong has raised you all for so long, and now that things have turned out this way, why don't you make your move?"
