Deep inside the imperial palace, inside the majestic palace.

Emperor Liu Bei of Han sat on the dragon throne, showing his majesty.

All the ministers under Xiao Fang stood solemnly in front of the hall, and the atmosphere was solemn and dignified.

A shrill groan suddenly sounded,

Cao Cao, covered in blood, was ruthlessly dragged into the hall.

Cao Cao’s former glory has long since disappeared.

His arm was broken and his body was covered in blood, looking extremely miserable.

However, when his eyes fell on Liu Bei, he still struggled and refused to kneel down.

Cao Cao’s pride prevented him from bowing to Liu Bei.

One was a son of a prominent family, and the other was a mat weaver and shoe seller.

Given Liu Bei’s background, he should have been subservient to Cao Cao.

Who would have thought that the world is so unpredictable and the ending would be completely the opposite.

Cao Cao is now kneeling at Liu Bei’s feet.

Cao Cao’s heart was filled with humiliation and unwillingness.

“The defeated general is a prisoner!”

“Cao thief, how dare you not bow?”

Xiao Fang’s eyes were wide open and he pointed at Cao Cao and shouted at him.

Cao Cao slowly raised his head and glanced at Liu Bei and Xiao Fang.

Liu Bei is just a weaver.

Xiao Fang was just an ordinary country boy.

It was these two people who joined forces to seize the world.

He had pushed them into a desperate situation, and now he was high above them, forcing him to kneel!

Cao Cao could never tolerate such humiliation!

“I, Cao Cao, am such a powerful person! Are you worthy of making me kneel?”

Cao Cao held his head high and denigrated Liu Bei at will.

When Liu Bei heard this, his face suddenly changed and anger surged.

Xiao Fang snorted coldly and turned his gaze to Chen Dao:

“If he refuses to kneel, give him a helping hand!”

Chen Dao took the order and rushed towards Cao Cao like a tiger.

Cao Cao involuntarily took a few steps back, feeling confused and uncertain.

He couldn’t guess what Xiao Fang’s intention was.

Chen Dao came behind Cao Cao and kicked him hard.

There was a crisp sound of “click”,
Cao Cao almost fainted from the pain and fell heavily to his knees.

Kneel down!

The once powerful emperor of the Qin Dynasty finally knelt.

This moment was the greatest humiliation in Cao Cao’s life.

More shameful than death!

“Big Ear Thief~~”

Cao Cao tried his best to struggle to get up.

However, Chen Dao held him down like an iron tower.

Cao Cao tried his best but still couldn’t stand up.

He could only kneel at Liu Bei’s feet in humiliation.

“The traitor who usurped the country!”

“What else do you have to say!”

Liu Bei looked down at Cao Cao’s remains and shouted coldly.

“Liu Bei!”

“You just have the help of the country folk.”

“If it weren’t for Xiao Fang, you would be the one kneeling here~~”

“What’s there to be proud of?”

Even when Cao Cao was kneeling on the ground, he still did not forget to curse.

Liu Bei did not get angry but laughed and said coldly:
“That’s right. Without the Prime Minister, I wouldn’t be where I am today.”

“But the destiny has come, and the Prime Minister has come to me, proving that I am the true emperor.”

“You have fallen into this situation, it’s all your own fault!”

Faced with Liu Bei’s retort, Cao Cao was speechless and had no words to respond.

Liu Bei put away his sarcasm and said solemnly:

“The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. It is understandable that you lost to me.”

“But you shouldn’t have plundered the people’s food rations and used the people of Chengdu as military rations!”

Liu Bei cursed bitterly.

These words pierced Cao Cao’s heart like a sharp knife.

Cao Cao was speechless for a moment, feeling extremely ashamed.

However, the humiliation soon passed.

Cao Cao began to quibble again.

“I was forced by you!”

“I stole food and ate people because of you.”

“Liu Bei, it’s actually you who is harming the people~~”

Liu Bei was extremely disappointed and shook his head.

Originally, he regarded Cao Cao as a respectable opponent.

If Cao Cao could admit defeat calmly, he might have let Cao Cao die with dignity.

But unexpectedly, Cao Cao was so unable to accept defeat that he acted like a villain.

So disappointed!

Liu Bei burst into laughter.

Cao Cao was at a loss as to why Liu Bei suddenly laughed.

Liu Bei’s smile showed his relief.

He no longer had any respect for Cao Cao.

There is no one in this world who can match him.

He is the only hero.

“You idiot!”

“If you hadn’t slaughtered my entire family, how could we have ended up like this?”

“You have brought all this upon yourself!”

Ma Chao pointed at Cao Cao and cursed angrily.

then.

Zhang Liao and other Qin surrendered ministers stood up and took turns to scold.

These people turned their backs on Qin and joined Han because Cao Cao suspected them.

They denounced Cao Cao to show their loyalty to the Han Dynasty.

Cao Cao looked at everyone in astonishment.

He had not expected that he would be so deserted by his friends and relatives.

Those former subjects hated me so much!

“Am I wrong?” He felt guilty.

“I can’t be wrong!”

In a blink of an eye, Cao Cao went crazy again.

He glared at Liu Bei and shouted wildly:

“Big-eared thief, kill the big-eared thief and I will make you king~~”

There was great shock in the hall.

No one expected that Cao Cao would say such words.

crazy!

Cao Cao was finally driven crazy!
Liu Bei looked disappointed, shook his head and sighed:
“I never thought that Cao Cao, who once dominated the world, would become so crazy.”

“such a pity.”

Liu Bei felt very regretful.

Xiao Fang smiled coldly, showing no mercy:

“It doesn’t matter if you’re sane or crazy.”

“The important thing is, if Your Majesty executes him, it will relieve the anger of the people in the city.”

“Only in this way can we win the hearts of the people.”

After hearing Xiao Fang’s reminder, Liu Bei came to his senses.

That’s right, he wanted to kill Cao Cao.

Cao Cao forcibly requisitioned food and fodder from the people and made them into jerky as military rations.

Such behavior is deeply hated by the people.

If you execute Cao Cao, the people will be able to vent their anger.

In this way, the people will be allied to him.

“It makes sense.”

Liu Bei waved his hand and shouted:

“Order to drag Cao Cao outside the west gate and behead him.”

“Let all the people in the city come and watch the execution!”

Cao Cao was confused.

He went crazy just to ask Liu Bei to kill him in a rage.

But what he didn’t expect was that Liu Bei would publicly execute him in front of all the people in the city.

“Liu Bei…”

“If you want to kill me, then give me a quick death!”

Cao Cao roared and shouted.

Liu Bei waved his hand.

The soldiers on both sides rushed forward and dragged Cao Cao away.

…

Afternoon, in front of the west gate.

Cao Cao was tied with his hands behind his back on the execution pillar.

When the people in the city heard that Liu Bei was going to execute Cao Cao, they were all ecstatic.

Citizens all over the city rushed to tell each other.

Soon, tens of thousands of people came upon hearing the news.

These people all wanted to see how Cao Cao was killed.

When they saw Cao Cao tied to the stake, their hatred finally erupted.

“Cao Cao, what a beast!”

“You ate my mother, you deserve it!”

“Thank you, Emperor, for avenging my mother~~”

Curses rose one after another, echoing in the city.

At this time, Liu Bei appeared on the city wall.

Thousands of soldiers and civilians knelt on the ground and shouted.

The people’s support and their hatred for Cao Cao formed a huge contrast.

Seeing this scene,

Cao Cao realized that he lost the world not just because he was defeated by Liu Bei.

Instead, he first lost the hearts of the people and then lost the world!
On the tower,
There was a hint of sympathy in Liu Bei’s eyes.

He sympathized with Cao Cao, his former opponent, who had now fallen to such a state.

“Cao Cao has brought this upon himself. Your Majesty, there is no need to feel sorry for him.”

Xiao Fang comforted him.

Liu Bei waved his hand towards Ma Chao and said:
“Don’t you want to avenge the extermination of your family? I will grant your permission.”

“I allow you to execute Cao Cao and avenge him!”

Ma Chao clenched his fists and veins bulged on his face.

He was just waiting for this sentence.

If it weren’t for the achievement of capturing Cao Cao alive, he would have killed Cao Cao long ago.

Now, Liu Bei ordered him to kill Cao, how could he not be grateful.

then,

Ma Chao came behind Cao Cao with a big knife in hand.

The cold blade pressed against the back of Cao Cao’s neck.

Cao Cao turned around and saw Ma Chao staring at him coldly.

A sharp pain surged into my heart.

Liu Bei still wanted to kill him.

The person who killed him was actually Ma Chao.

This is the person who exterminated his clan.

“Cao thief, tell me your last words!”

Ma Chao held the hilt of the knife and said coldly.

Cao Cao felt sad.

Once upon a time, Ma Chao was his subject.

But now, he was kneeling in front of Ma Chao.

I’m depreesed.

“Ma Chao, I’m sorry.”

“I shouldn’t have wiped out your entire clan.”

“I am the one who has let you down. I deserve what I have become.”

At the last moment, Cao Cao realized it.

He understood that he could only blame himself for the change in his character after he became the emperor.

He is no longer the heroic leader Cao Cao.

But he is a stubborn and self-willed person.

“Cao Cao!”

“Go and die in peace!”

Ma Chao slashed down with the big knife in his hand!
“Crack!”

With a deep thud, Cao Cao’s head fell to the ground. (End of this chapter)
