“Young master!” Dian Man exclaimed softly. He hurriedly arrived in front of Zhao Da, on guard against any last-ditch struggle from Zhao Da that might harm his young lord even in his dying moments. As for Zhao Da… He stared at Cao Ju in disbelief and anger. He contemplated how he might meet his end as someone specialized in handling covert matters for Cao Cao. Perhaps in the line of duty. Perhaps because he knew too much, and Cao Cao would have him silenced by his agents. Or… But Zhao Da had never imagined. He would meet his end at the hands of an utterly unremarkable young nobleman.

This manner of death filled him with frustration and resentment. Feeling the ebbing life force within him and spewing blood from his mouth due to the severe wound to his heart, Zhao Da mustered the last of his strength and asked, “Lord, you… how…” Before he could finish uttering the words “How dare.” His body could no longer hold, and he staggered backward.

“Thump!” The sound of his body hitting the ground resounded. Half of Zhao Da’s body slumped beneath the awning of the corridor, while the other half lay on the rain-soaked ground. The rain fell like a curtain, revealing Zhao Da’s lifeless expression.

“Thump, thump, thump!” “Thump, thump, thump!”

Urgent footsteps approached. Before long, the commotion in the distance drew over a dozen members of Zhao Da’s subordinates, who were part of his group of school officials. As they approached, In an instant, they noticed Cao Ju holding a long sword, blood dripping from its tip, and the direction it pointed to – their school official, Zhao Da, lying lifeless in the rain.

Faced with this situation, the school officials immediately faced a dilemma. It was clear to anyone with eyes that their leader had been killed by the Eighth Young Master, Cao Ju, standing before them. But given their status as ordinary school officials, they couldn’t possibly apprehend Young Master Cao Ju. Even if… they knew that Cao Ju was not a young master valued by their master, Cao Cao, disregarding his status, wouldn’t be something they, mere underlings, could afford to do.

“Young Master, what should we do…” After a long pause, one of the members stepped forward, his face filled with hesitation, as he looked toward Cao Ju.

In response, Cao Ju’s reply was straightforward, “The Chief of Staff, Zhao Da, attempted to assassinate me. I killed him on the spot.” “These words, you should report them truthfully to my father,” Cao Ju continued. The school official who had spoken earlier seemed at a loss for words upon hearing Cao Ju’s explanation. It was beyond belief that their leader, Zhao Da, would dare to attempt an assassination on Cao Ju. They were well aware of Zhao Da’s temperament as his subordinates.

“If that’s what the Young Master says…”

“Zhao Da’s attempted assassination of the Young Master is a punishable crime. We will now take his body away,” the school official said, following Cao Ju’s lead. And then, with a wave of his hand, the group carried Zhao Da’s body away without any pause. Once all the members had left, Cao Ju also didn’t linger. With purposeful strides, he headed straight for the mansion gates.

Walking beside Cao Ju, Dian Man couldn’t contain his inner doubts any longer and whispered, “Young Master, just now you told those people that Zhao Da died attempting to assassinate you, and you instructed them to report this truthfully to the Prime Minister. Do you think the Prime Minister will believe it?”

“Father will believe it!!!”

“Father will believe?!”

Dian Man’s eyes widened in disbelief. The astute Prime Minister could hardly believe the preposterous and absurd reason.

Noticing Dian Man’s expression, Cao Ju explained, “Ziqian (Dian Man’s courtesy name), the moment Mr. Wen Ruo gave up his suicidal intentions, Zhao Da was already destined to die.”

“Even if I didn’t kill him today,”

“Once he returns to father’s side, father will also kill him.”

“Only with Zhao Da’s death,”

“It will be as if today’s incident of the empty food container never happened. Father and Mr. Wen Ruo can continue their ‘peaceful coexistence.\'”

“You tell me, in this situation…”

“Is the exact reason for Zhao Da’s death important to father?”

After hearing Cao Ju’s explanation, Dian Man’s face revealed a moment of realization. He secretly decided to keep today’s events to himself, so he asked, “Young Master, where should we go next?!”

“Where to go?” Cao Ju took a deep breath. “Naturally, we’re going to my father to apologize!”

He intended to apologize.

Not for killing Zhao Da but for saving Xun Yu.

After all, convincing Xun Yu to abandon his desire for death was not enough; he also had to convince his father, Cao Cao, to accept a living Xun Yu.

“However!” Cao Ju’s words took a sharp turn.

“Before going to apologize to my father, there’s someone else I need to meet.”

“Young Master, what kind of person is worth the risk of being questioned by the Prime Minister? Why are you so eager to meet them?” Dian Man looked puzzled.

In his view,

Since their Young Master had mentioned apologizing to his father, it naturally made sense to do it as quickly as possible. Why would they delay it like this?

“What kind of person?”

“A young and talented figure, born of humble origins, who possesses the bearing of a future General-in-Chief.”

“Having the right person is like having thousands of soldiers and horses!”
