Chapter 441 Carry
Jia Chong secretly hated.

It's not a problem to be stepped on like this all the time.

The small eyeballs floated around Sima Zhao and Zhong Hui, and a plan came into his mind, "The general will flatten Huainan, defeat Dongwu, add power to the sea, and cover the country with merit. Only then can you remember, "

Since ancient times, the contribution of the dragon has been the heaviest.

Ren Zhonghui's clever tricks are not as good as this credit.

This is also Jia Chong's last hope for a comeback.

The family background, prestige, and resourcefulness are not comparable, so I can only take some crooked paths.

The hall suddenly became quiet.

Everyone looked at Jia Chong with disdain. His father Jia Kui was loyal to Cao Wei back then, and he never expected to give birth to such a son.

Jia Chong didn't care.

Sima Zhao laughed loudly, "What do you guys think?"

The first position is the Duke of Jin, then set up the state of Jin, and then advance to be the King of Jin...

This is the standard procedure pioneered by Wei Wu.

Before the Huainan War, Sima Zhao sent people to test the governors of the four directions. Jia Chong asked Zhuge Dan directly: "All the sages in Luozhong are willing to take the place of Zen. What do you think?"

It can be seen that Sima Zhao had this intention long ago.

Jia Chong just followed the trend.

In the first year of Ganlu, Huainan was rebelled twice, and Sima Shi died. After Sima Zhao led the six armies back to the court, he took power for the first time, so he tentatively became the governor, but he was not named.

In June, Jin was granted the title of Gaodu Duke, with a fief of [-] li, plus nine tins, a fake ax and axe, and a sword shoe on the temple. On August [-], he was given a yellow axe, and three counties were added to the fiefdom.

Sima Zhao imitated his father and refused to accept it.

Now, the pacification of Zhuge Dan, the heavy damage to Soochow, and the credit of Deng Ai, Duan Gu, and Jiang Wei are also counted on Sima Zhao's head, and the most lacking military merits of the Sima family have also been made up for.

So Jia Chong's proposal is very timely.

Everyone secretly scolded Jia Chong for being shameless, but at this moment, they could only respond one after another.

With Sima Zhao's cruelty, anyone who doesn't respond will have to learn the old skills of the Sima family's ancestors from the Yi tribe.

"What Jia Changshi said is absolutely true! Non-Duke Jin cannot reward the great general."

"Subordinates wait for second!"

"If the general does not enter the position of Duke Jin, the scholars in the world will have resentment."

……

There was a pandemonium of flattery in the hall.

Sima Zhao was not overwhelmed, and said with a smile: "In the past, my father wiped out thousands of miles, ruled the eight wastelands, punished the rebellious minister Cao Shuang, and made great achievements in the world, but he never overstepped by an inch. How can I dare to accept this? Ladies and gentlemen Don't mention it again, don't mention it again."

The process needs to go step by step.

When Cao Pi was on behalf of the Han Dynasty, he also gave three words and three concessions.

But the scholar's heart is on his side, so Sima Zhao is relieved.

In Shouchun City, one side is full of wind and water, and the other side is gloomy.

"History has recorded that there is no moral official, greedy and cruel, no more than the Sima family. The father and son are gangsters, humiliating the royal family, breaking the law and chaotic discipline; sitting in the middle office, dictating the government; rewarding the nobles from the heart, Slaughter in the mouth; treachery, barbarian tribes..."

Walking in the middle, the redundant servant Li Zhao was reading the Liangzhou proclamation for the young emperor.

When I heard the words "the thief Sima Zhao wants to steal the artifact" and "all the public houses in the world are chasing rotten stink", I burst into tears.

After crying, an inexplicable expectation suddenly arose towards Yang Zheng.

After all, this is the only family in the world who dares to support the imperial family.

This year the emperor was eighteen years old, he knew everything he should know, and he knew everything he shouldn't know.

Compared with Sima Yi and Master Sima's ruthlessness, Sima Zhao was still a bit worse after all.

Otherwise, this proclamation could not have appeared in front of Cao Mao.

The emperor has his own confidants around him.

There are hundreds of guards in the hall, such as Li Zhao, Huangmen servant Jiao Bo, etc., who are loyal and loyal.

"You all say that although Yang Xingyun has Dong Zhuo's ambitions, Dong Zhuo has never left the Han family!" Cao Mao expressed his thoughts in one sentence, like a drowning man, eager to grab any straw on the water.

Regardless of whether Yang Zheng is loyal or not, looking at Cao Wei, he is the only one who dares to challenge Sima Zhao.

So from any perspective, Yang Zheng should be someone Cao Mao should actively woo.

This tendency was also revealed in Yang Zheng's proclamation.

"Your Majesty wants to implement a strategy to drive away wolves and tigers?" Jiao Bo whispered.

"Other than that, can I have other strategies?" Cao Mao asked back.

Before that, he tried his best to win over the Shandong gentry, and named Wang Xiang as the third elder, Zheng Xiaotong as the fifth watchman, and treated him as the emperor's teacher.

"Book of Rites" has a saying: "Three elders and five watchmen, there is no seat for the elders."

"Le Ji": Eat three, old and five more at the university.

He also tried his best to win over Zhongshulang and Yanghu, the servant of Huangmen.

But Sima Zhao killed Zheng Xiaotong after changing hands, was promoted to Wang Xiang Taichang, and was named Longevity Tinghou.

In order to avoid disaster, Yang Hu was neither close to Cao Mao nor Sima Zhao.

Cao Mao became more and more isolated around him, and gradually realized that the way to win over the elites of the gentry would not work.

Master Sima beheaded Xia Houxuan, and Sima Zhao beheaded Zheng Xiaotong, both to warn the nobles in the world that the sword is always in the hands of my Sima family!

The gentry family has never been unyielding, nor will it be united, but will only make peace with various positions of power.

Because Sima Zhao went further than Emperor Cao Mao, and gave more.

After hearing Cao Mao's rhetorical question, both of them remained silent.

Suddenly, Cao Mao tore off a corner of his underwear, bit his fingertips, and "pointed" to the two people's amazed eyes, writing quickly, "Xiang Wenqing is my old family. The emperor's house is in trouble now, and the country is about to fall. May you use this as a bloody edict." Tell the world, gather righteous men from all over the world, fight with the wind, and ride wild geese together to fight against the rebellious ministers! Now you are enfeoffed as General of Hussars and Marquis of Gu Zang, and will supervise all the armies of the world under the guise of axe. If you can accomplish great things and help Wei, I will not hesitate to break the seal of the earth!"

Cao Mao is the grandson of Cao Pi. He doesn't know much about martial arts, but his literary talent is at its peak. At the age of eighteen, he has several articles handed down to the world, and he often discusses Taoism with scholars in Taixue.

"Your Majesty must not do it. If this edict is spread, Sima Zhao will definitely abolish the establishment!"

"Even if His Majesty issues an edict, Yang Zheng may not send troops."

Li Zhao and Jiao Bo knelt in front of Cao Mao, weeping.

In fact, without the eight characters of "Ordered by Heaven and Longevity", the legitimacy of this blood edict is seriously lacking.

"Could it be that if I don't issue this edict, Sima Zhao won't be able to abolish the act of arrogance?"

A rhetorical question left the two speechless.

Although Cao Mao was only eighteen, he was extremely intelligent. In the debates in the imperial academy, the famous scholars who often refuted were speechless.

Therefore, a few years ago, Zhong Hui secretly commented on the emperor to Sima Shi: he is the same as Chen Si, the great ancestor of martial arts.

Literary talent is like Cao Zhi, martial arts is like Cao Cao.

"Sima Zhao has always lied to the name of benevolence and righteousness. When this edict is spread, he is wary of what people in the world say. In a few years, he will not dare to move lightly." Cao Mao had already thought about it.

Since there is no one to rely on in the court, they can only count on Liangzhou.

"But how will Your Majesty send out this blood edict?" Li Zhao asked the most critical question.

This thing was released and made known to the world. Sima Zhao was afraid of the criticism from the world, so maybe he didn't dare to move the emperor.

But if it was intercepted secretly, the emperor would definitely die.
