Shuhan

Chapter 265 If I don’t take Zhen Mi back, I will never be a human being!

"What did the teacher say?"

After hearing the good news, the expression on Cao Rui's face remained unchanged.

"There was a large army in Hangu Pass who was bewitched by the Marquis of Yanling and dared to gather troops to come to Luoyang. They destroyed many counties and villages along the way. Originally there were only 1 people, but now they have grown to tens of thousands. At this critical moment, We, the old ministers who have stayed behind, would like to ask you, Yuan Zhong, to take charge of the overall situation in Luoyang."

Of course, later on, Zheng Cheng still said reluctantly: "To be specific, you and the Queen Mother are in charge of the overall situation of Luoyang. However, the Queen Mother is just a woman, and she loves Yuan Zhongduo. This is exactly It’s a good time for you to show your royal abilities and impress the king!”

Cao Rui's expression was calm and relaxed.

"I thought it was the news of my father's triumphant return! I didn't expect it to be true that there was rebellion around Luoyang. In this important place, there were rebellions and tens of thousands of troops gathered. The city of Luoyang was in danger of falling. This is good news. ?”

Although Cao Rui's figure is thin, he exudes a majestic and extraordinary temperament.

He sat in the hall, expressionlessly confronting his master Zheng Cheng, showing a composure and confidence that belied his age.

Although he is only 13 years old, his manners and manners are already beyond the level of his peers.

"This"

Zheng Cheng was stunned for a moment.

But behind him, Xia Houmao laughed twice and said: "The monarch is really devoted to the country, and it is indeed not a good thing if someone in the department is causing trouble. It is precisely for this reason that the monarch needs to come to calm people's hearts."

Cao Rui's words made Xia Houmao look at him with admiration.

He had heard that Cao Rui was extremely smart, but now he saw that he was much smarter than the rumors said.

"The prince is the heir of the eldest prince. He was originally appointed to supervise the country. This time he came to take charge of the overall situation. It is natural and justified. I believe that with the prince sitting in charge, the hearts of the people of Luoyang can be gathered together."

Shangshu Ling Huanjie covered his long beard and looked at Cao Rui with a kind smile of elders.

"My father is not in Luoyang. I am in Luoyang, but I can't gather many people's hearts. I wonder, master, if you have a plan to put an end to this chaos?"

Zheng Cheng nodded and said: "The Marquis of Yanling is, after all, the heir of the Queen Mother, so we must first make him aware of the righteousness and order him not to cause chaos."

Cao Rui shook his head and said: "Since it is a rebellion, how can you give up just because of a few words? Even if the Queen Mother personally takes action, I am afraid it will be difficult to succeed."

Zheng Cheng's expression did not change. He secretly glanced at Shangshu Ling Huanjie and the guard Xia Houmao, and continued: "If you are stubborn, we will gather the troops in Luoyang and fortify the city. With Luoyang city strong and the food and grass in the city, It is not a problem to defend for half a year. In half a year, the king will have enough time to come back and the rebellion will be resolved by then."

"Master, this idea seems to be a safe one, but in fact it is quite risky. The city of Luoyang is strong, but the people in Luoyang city are not strong. There are few people who offer help in times of trouble, but there are many people who add icing on the cake, and there are even more people who add insult to injury. The Marquis of Yanling is quite famous in the army. , can we really hold Luoyang for half a year?"

Huang Xuer still had some connections in the army.

There are probably not a few people who want to take advantage of the power of Conglong.

Those who didn't get along with Cao Pi before are now taking a risk and following Cao Zhang. If they can help him become the King of Wei, then...
The whole Wei Kingdom needs to be reshuffled, and after the reshuffle, the position will be occupied by those who take risks.

Wealth is in danger!
There are too many courageous people in this era.

"Besides, if chaos breaks out in Luoyang, it will definitely disrupt my father's plan for the southern expedition. It would be unsightly if my father's great achievements were foiled because of this."

Zheng Cheng nodded secretly, but his face showed a frown.

"Then according to Yuan Zhong's words, what should we do?"

Cao Rui's eyes flickered and he said: "Why do you need my father to return to the army? We can put an end to this chaos and make it stillborn!"

Xia Houmao took a step forward, bowed his hands to Cao Rui, and asked, "What is your plan?"

clap clap~
Cao Rui patted the dust on his body and stood up slowly. He turned to look at Xia Houmao and said: "Although there are many rebels outside Luoyang City now, they are all a mob and there is nothing to be afraid of. You can send elite soldiers to take advantage of this." Attack him at night and his army will be in chaos."

Not only does he not defend, but he also attacks?
"Is it too risky?"

In fact, Xia Houmao had such thoughts just now, but he was only a guard after all. Even if he proposed this idea, no one dared to listen to him.

Even if they listened to him, no one would dare to do it.

And if everyone listened to him and asked him to do it, and failed, he couldn't afford to take the blame.

But why is this sentence so appropriate when it comes from the mouth of Wu Dehou Cao Rui?

"We can try it before the Marquis of Yanling reaches the army. If he gets into the army, there will probably be countless people responding. If he tries to make a dangerous move by then, he won't even have a chance."

Cao Rui stared at Xia Houmao and said: "I heard that Liu Gongsi, the crown prince of Hanzhong, handed over the business of Wei Guo's merchant alliance to Yanlinghou. In the past month, he has made huge profits in the merchant alliance. With such huge profits, it is too easy to win people's hearts. When that time comes, can we really stop their attack?"

Money can turn the devil around.

You say someone gave you 100 yuan and asked you to do something against your will.

You do not agree.

Not even 1000 yuan, not even 1 yuan.

But
If I give you 100 million, 1000 million.

Do you agree?
Most people will choose to agree.

What's more, they are willing to eat shit.

The human heart is the hardest to test.

It's also best not to give them a chance to test people's hearts.

Shangshu Ling Huanjie was also quite moved.

He nodded and said, "This plan may be feasible."

"In addition, I heard that the banner raised by the rebels was Cao Pi's patricide, and the Marquis of Yanling was the banner of the King of Wei. This banner can incite people's hearts and gives opportunities to those with ulterior motives. We can also dispel this rumor and let People’s hearts are stable.”

Shangshu Ling Huanjie was convinced.

"I have already issued documents and sent officials to post notices everywhere."

Cao Rui shook his head and said: "This alone is not enough. I have a plan. Although I won't take risks, I might offend my father."

To anger the king?
Xia Houmao was stunned.

"Please make it clear, Your Majesty."

"Let Marquis Pingyuan refute these fallacies."

Hou Pingyuan?
Cao Zhi?

As soon as Cao Rui said this, even Zheng Cheng didn't dare to speak.

This topic, to be honest, is a bit dangerous.

The King of Wei has not liked Cao Zhi, the Marquis of Pingyuan, for a long time!
He is still under house arrest in the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion in Luoyang City, and is prohibited from communicating with outsiders.

Although the Hou Mansion is large, to him, it is just a larger prison cell.

After a long silence, Xia Houmao, as a clan member, finally spoke first.

"What is the purpose of your actions?"

"The Marquis of Pingyuan is my uncle, my father's brother. If he is willing to speak out, and my father's throne is upright, the people of the world will join him. In addition, the Marquis of Pingyuan is proficient in poetry. If he writes an essay or refutes Rumors can be made known to everyone in the world, and they are much more convincing than me posting notices."

Cao Zhi was a precocious young man. When he was more than ten years old, he could recite hundreds of thousands of poems, essays and poems. He could also write and write.

Now, his level and reputation are world-famous.

Therefore, later generations Xie Lingyun sighed: There is only one stone in the world, and Cao Zijian has eight buckets.

Zheng Cheng nodded and evaluated Cao Zhi based on his literary achievements alone.

"The Marquis of Pingyuan has a very high character, and his poems are brilliant. His emotions are mixed with elegance and resentment, his body and style are elegant, and he is outstanding in both modern and ancient times. If you are willing to help Yuan Zhong, it will indeed be a great help."

As for what King Wei would think?
At this critical moment, what else could he think?
Of course, choose to forgive him!
"Your Majesty is extremely intelligent and we respect him. At this time of crisis for Wei State, only Your Majesty can save Wei State!"

Xia Houmao immediately saluted Cao Rui.

When I came to see Cao Rui today, I also asked Xia Houmao to slash his buttocks with a knife - I took a look.

So how can Cao Li, a labor-capital, fight against Wudehou?

Invest now, it’s an angel round!
Xia Houmao searched him in without hesitation.

Shangshu Ling Huanjie also nodded in agreement.

"Please also ask Wu Dehou to go to the Chancellor's desk quickly and take charge of the overall situation!"

Cao Rui didn't dare to take off his clothes, so he returned the greetings to the two of them and said, "I'm sorry, sir, but I don't dare to resign. I also ask you two to go to the Chancellor's desk first. After I tidy up my clothes, I will go with the Master." Huan Jie He and Xia Houmao looked at each other, then both nodded.

"In that case, we will wait for you at the Shangshutai."

They all knew that Cao Rui had something to say to Zheng Cheng.

Although they are now moving closer to Cao Rui, they are still not as caring as Zheng Cheng.

The degree of this must still be grasped.

After the two left, Zheng Cheng said with a rather unhappy expression:
"Yuan Zhong, you want to release Pingyuan Hou. This move is quite inappropriate."

The performance just now for Huan Jie and Xia Houmao was naturally a double act performed by the two.

As for the effect, there is no telling, but Zheng Cheng is still a little dissatisfied.

"What's wrong?"

Under Cao Rui's calm expression, his eyes became much gloomier.

"After all, Marquis Pingyuan and Mrs. Zhen"

"Humph!"

Cao Rui snorted coldly and said, "Don't talk about this matter again."

Hey ~
Zheng Cheng sighed in his heart and said: "It's just this, I'm afraid it will make the king unhappy, but if we can solve the Luoyang chaos, it won't do any harm."

"If I were a father, I would never vent my anger on a woman, let alone this woman's son. If I had the ability, I would snatch my mother back. I would be nothing but a coward!"

Cao Rui muttered to himself, with a disdainful smile on his lips.

Liu Gongsi, Prince of Hanzhong?

I will take my mother back, and
I will also take your head!
The murderous look in the young man's eyes disappeared in a flash.

Shortly after.

Miyagi.

Shangshu Taichung.

Everyone is here.

On the main seat, Cao Rui, the Marquis of Wu De, was sitting in a marquis robe.

On his left hand side, slightly lower, Queen Mother Bian was sitting.

The Queen Mother's hair was neatly combed, and the hairpins inlaid with jewels shone with faint light, making her look dignified and elegant.

Her face reveals the vicissitudes of time, but her skin is well maintained, and the traces of time have not erased her noble temperament.

Beside her, there was a beautiful woman serving her. This person was none other than Cao Pi's queen, Queen Guo.

Queen Guo has a beautiful appearance, giving people a fresh and refined feeling.Her skin was as white as snow, smooth and delicate, without any blemishes, as if it were carved from jade.Her eyebrows are long and elegant, slightly arched, adding charm and confidence to her face.

Cao Rui, who was sitting on the top, would turn his eyes to her from time to time.

of course
This is not appreciation.

But with a little resentment.

How many times he saw his mother feeling sad in the room, it was because of this person.

If she hadn't taken away her father's favor, how could so many things have happened?

of course
This kind of emotion must never be known to outsiders.

Whoop whoop~
He took a few deep breaths and immediately regained his composure.

"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, this is the strategy formulated by the Chancellor to deal with the enemy."

Shangshu Ling Huanjie was about to draft the document and asked the internal officials to deliver it to the head of the Shangshu table.

"Grandma, you should read this document first."

The internal official handed the document to Cao Rui, but Cao Rui asked the internal official to send the document to Queen Mother Bian.

"As a woman, I can just hold the line for Rui'er. If I really have to make up my mind, I'm afraid I don't have the ability."

Queen Guo opened her mouth slightly. In fact, she wanted to say that she could still come up with an idea.

But as if he thought of something, he still didn't speak.

Opening the document, Cao Rui found that the disposal methods were pretty good.

The scene he and Zheng Cheng performed in the palace was, after all, just for people to watch.

"Shang Shutai's strategy is good, but perhaps a few more should be added."

Next, Cao Rui spoke slowly.

He attacked the rebels at night, activated Pingyuan Marquis, made public the collusion between Yanling Marquis Cao Zhang and the Crown Prince of Hanzhong, and convicted him of treason!
Of course, considering that the Queen Mother Bian next to her was Cao Zhang's biological mother after all, Cao Rui added a sentence at the end.

"If Marquis Yanling is lost and realizes his return, his life can be spared. If he persists in his pursuit, he will be imprisoned in Luoyang Prison and await the trial of his father."

Huan Jie had already been mentally prepared.

After the others thought about it, a few people did offer words of advice, but they were all blocked by Cao Rui.

plan!

That was settled.

And Cao Pi was far away in Shouchun.

At this moment, he was not as calm as his son Cao Rui.

"Pingyu was breached?"

The messenger nodded.

"Pingyu was really defeated by Liu Chan?"

After asking, Cao Piyou didn't believe it and asked again.

"The peace has been broken. This is the news from Shen Yang." The messenger answered honestly.

"Humph!"

Cao Pi snorted coldly. He first asked the messenger to go down, and then covered his chest with one hand, and suddenly felt a chest tightness.

It was actually difficult to even breathe.

This is pissed off.

"Zhongda went to Runan. Not only did he lose the letter of praise, he also lost his reputation? Trash!"

After taking a breath, Cao Pi pointed his finger at the sky and fired at the air.

"Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, and there is no use in anger. The peace has been destroyed, and the supply of food and grass ahead will be in crisis in ten days or so. Please make a decision as soon as possible, Your Majesty!"

decision making?

Do I still have a choice now?

Cao Pi's eyes were gloomy, and murderous intent was already overflowing from him.

Liu Chan.

It’s finally time for you and me to come and have a try in person.

Whose fist is harder?

In a few days...
It can be revealed!

If I don't take your head this time and snatch Zhen Mi back, I, Cao Pi, will never be a human being!
