LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 88
After Chen Gong muttered to himself, he couldn't help but laugh miserably!
It seemed that the belief that had supported him to fight against Boss Cao all these years had completely collapsed: He had always been so arrogant and intelligent, but now he couldn't even beat an 18-year-old son?!
What's more, Boss Cao himself was cunning and intelligent!
He also had many top think tanks such as Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, etc.!
Such a huge gap in think tanks was here!
It was like a natural chasm that could never be crossed: it clearly spanned between the camps of Boss Cao and Lu Bu!
If it were in the past, Chen Gong might have been able to deceive himself and think: relying on Lu Bu's invincible military force, and with his own wisdom and strategy?
Maybe he could compete with Cao's army, or even win!
In fact, they almost did it in the Battle of Puyang that year...
However, times have changed, and now it is no longer the same as before!
Let’s not talk about the huge gap between the two sides’ civil officials and think tanks; even the military strength that Lü Bu was most proud of had been completely surpassed by the second son of the Cao family. How could he fight? How could a firefly compete with the sun and the moon?
When Chen Gong thought of this, he couldn’t hold it anymore!
The original light and arrogance in his eyes disappeared without a trace in an instant!
Seeing this, Boss Cao hurried forward and untied Chen Gong.
Then, he couldn’t help but shout:
"Gongtai...how about coming back?……"
After hearing this, Chen Gong couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart.
However, after just a simple thought, he couldn't help but smile miserably:
"Come back? I can't come back! I already can't come back……"
"Meng De, you and I have different beliefs, so we are destined to go our separate ways!
This is a dead end, there is no other way to solve it..！"
After hearing this, Boss Cao said seriously:
"Gongtai, why are you so stubborn?
Even if it is a deadlock, is it really impossible to solve it?!"
Chen Gong was silent for a long time, and finally smiled:
"The only way to solve a deadlock is through death……"
These words showed his determination to die!
Then, he walked straight to the guillotine...
Boss Cao couldn't help but tremble in his heart and shouted loudly:
"Gongtai...is this really the only way?"
"If you are determined to die, what will happen to your mother and wife at home?"
Chen Gong smiled faintly and said without turning his head:
"I have heard that those who govern the world with filial piety do not harm other people’s relatives; those who implement benevolent policies in the world do not cut off people’s sacrifices!"
"Meng De, if you really want to pacify the world and conquer all directions, then there is no need to worry about my family! Besides
, what's the point of worrying about dying people?"
"The life and death of my mother and wife all depend on Meng De's thoughts……"
After saying that, he only left everyone with a resolute back view.
Seeing this, Boss Cao wanted to reach out to keep Chen Gong!
But in the end, he just trembled and stopped in mid-air, and nothing was left...
In the blink of an eye!
Chen Gong had walked up to the guillotine in a chic manner!
The executioner saw this, but he did not rush to act, nor did he dare to act rashly!
He raised his head and glanced in the direction of the platform: looking at his master, who looked reluctant?
It was obvious that he was entangled in his heart and was completely reluctant to kill Chen Gong!
So, the executioner was completely confused: what should he do with the head that was offered to him?
For a moment, he was stunned in place, and asked with his eyes:
Should I chop off Chen Gong's head or not?
Seeing this, Boss Cao sighed: as if he had made an extremely difficult decision!
In full view of the public!
He suddenly turned around!
With his back to the guillotine, he used his hand as a knife!
Then he swung it hard to his side!
The executioner saw this and understood it on the spot! (To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Immediately, a knife flashed by!
With a"puff" sound!
Amidst the splattering of blood:
Chen Gong's head fell to the ground...
But from beginning to end!
He never made a sound of begging for mercy or pleasure!
Even when the head rolled off, there was still an extremely peaceful smile on his face.
His departure was over, and he no longer had any worries!
Cao Jian saw this on the high platform and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
"' Although Chen Gong is slow in intelligence, he has his own integrity and perseverance!
Facing the great terror between life and death, he can face death calmly, which makes him a great man.……"
As he was secretly sighing, his father beside him suddenly spoke in a low voice:
"Gongtai...did he leave?……"
Cao Jian nodded and said solemnly:
"Gone! He passed away peacefully. I believe he has no regrets.……"
Boss Cao nodded silently, and after a long while, he mustered up the courage to turn around.
Seeing his former confidant and benefactor disappear forever in front of him?
At that moment, Boss Cao felt his heart suddenly empty!
Such a treacherous hero actually had red eyes at this moment!
After a long silence...
Boss Cao lowered his head and spoke in a deep voice:
"Pass the order down! Order (Li Zhaohao) to bury Gongtai's body with honors worthy of a duke or noble!"
"Also! Immediately, send Gongtai's mother and wife back to Xudu to live in retirement!
The people who serve you must be treated as my family!
Anyone who neglects me will be killed.——！！"
After issuing several orders in succession,
Boss Cao looked at the direction where Chen Gong was going to die and whispered to himself:
"Although I once said that I would rather betray the world than let the world betray me!
But today, after all, I have betrayed Chen Gong!
I personally ordered the execution of this old friend.……"
At that moment,
Cao Jian clearly saw with his own eyes that this cheap old man beside him, this traitor who bore all the infamy behind him, had a miserable look on his face. In his lonely and not very tall back, there was an indescribable bleakness and loneliness.
