But Ye Weirong had no time to think about it! Under Huang Fu's repeated provocations, the seeds of suspicion planted a few days ago had grown into towering trees. The furious Emperor Cai finally made up his mind. "Deprive Cao Guobin of all his positions and let him reflect at home! He is not allowed to go out without orders!"
Fortunately, the emperor was still nostalgic and did not let his anger burn away all his rationality. He always felt that this matter was a little strange and kept some leeway. Moreover, Cao Guobin was the Grand Tutor after all and had made great contributions to the State of Cai. The Emperor of Cai also had to take his influence into consideration.
But how could Huang Fu give Cao Guobin this opportunity? Cao Guobin is not a fool after all. As long as there is time, he will slowly turn things around. In political confrontation, you must not be soft-handed. When it is time to strike, you must strike hard. After defeating the political enemy, you must step on him and make him unable to stand up forever!
Moreover, the Emperor of Cai was not completely confused. After this escape, the Emperor of Cai seemed to be waking up and awakening little by little under the stimulation of the disaster. In this escape, the Emperor of Cai showed decisiveness and rationality, which forced Huang Fu to be cautious.
Therefore, Huang Fu immediately made a suggestion: "Your Majesty, be careful of Anyang. The Yan family may have already started preparations. We must be on guard against the lessons of the past. Now Anyang is more powerful, but he has the ability and many ways and means to save people."
Yes, be careful of Anyang, be careful of another Yan family coming out; now Anyang is able to intervene and save people! Moreover, the Yan family has brought so many benefits to Anyang's development. If the Cao family escapes to Anyang again, the consequences will be disastrous!
The Emperor of Cai finally decided to kill him! Apart from anything else, the fact that he was "more meritorious than his master" was enough to kill Cao Guobin. The situation of the Great Xia Kingdom in the south was the most direct reference for the Emperor of Cai! Those who rebelled were all "more meritorious than their master".
In addition to these suspicions, the entire Cao family was executed. Cutting the grass must be rooted out. With the precedent of the Yan family, the Emperor of Cai showed no mercy this time. This matter was executed overnight!
Before dawn, Cao Guobin's family had become history. But this incident also cast a shadow on Cai Guo.
The Emperor of Cai then ordered the withdrawal of all the garrisons from the western and northwestern borders. The plane that delivered the order arrived at the border at dawn. Because the families of these generals were in Sanchuan, these generals had no choice but to lead their troops to retreat to Sanchuan.
…
To the west of the State of Cai, it was already dawn. Chen Guangyi, a border general of the State of Chen, looked to the east and always felt that something was missing.
"Why is there no smoke from cooking?" The military advisor pointed out the key point!
Chen Guangyi suddenly realized, "Send someone to check it out, be careful."
Immediately, a Jindan-stage master flew into the air to investigate; a large number of scouts also went out to investigate. In just a few minutes, information was transmitted back—the border of the State of Cai was empty! All the pots, pans, and other things were thrown in the same place, but they were all smashed; and the wells were filled in. In addition, the cattle, horses, and livestock that could not be taken away were killed.
"Try again!" Chen Guangyi's face was solemn. What was going on? Something must be wrong when things are out of the ordinary!
Soon, the Jindan-stage expert who was conducting sky reconnaissance sent back more accurate information. The more than 200,000 border guards of the State of Cai had all retreated! While he was hesitating, someone came to report that there was a letter from the envoy of the State of Cai.
