The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 76
"Keng!" The Yitian sword came out of its sheath, and let out a dragon chant: "Sima Zhao's heart is known to all passers-by!"

Just an hour before Sima Zhao and Wang Yuanji talked about Guan Yi, Cao Mao, the fourth emperor of Cao Wei, known as "Wen Tong Chen Si, Wu Lei Taizu", summoned more than [-] servants in his palace and published made an impassioned call.

"Since the change of Gaoping Mausoleum, Sima Zhao, father and son, have been in power for 11 years successively! During the 11 years, they harmed loyal officials, suppressed speech, agreed with each other, and abolished the establishment arbitrarily. The crime is so great that it is too numerous to write! Recently, Sima Zhao also Mobilizing minions, intending to be named Duke! His intention to usurp the throne is clearly revealed!"

"I! I am the great-grandson of Emperor Taizu Wu and a descendant of the Cao family. At the time when the Great Wei is alive and dead, I can only stand up and fight against the power traitors in person! No matter whether I win or lose this battle, I only hope that I will be worthy of seeing Taizu Wu in the future." The emperor is in the ground! I only want to be worthy of the surname of Cao!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, your Majesty must not do it." Wang Jing, who was defeated by Jiang Wei in the Battle of Taoshui, is now Cao Wei Sili Xiaowei and Shangshu. Among the ministers of the court that night, he was the only one with him. Attendant Wang Shen and Sanqi Chang Attendant Wang Ye are on duty in the palace.Cao Mao was of course alarmed when he made such a big battle.

"Your Majesty, in ancient times, Lu Zhaogong could not bear the dictatorship of the Ji family. He failed in the crusade and left. He lost his country and was ridiculed by the people of the world. Now the power has been in the hands of Sima Zhao for a long time. It is not a day to serve one's life regardless of the principles of adversity and obedience. Moreover, there are no guards in the palace, and the army is very weak. What can your majesty rely on? And once you do this, don't you want to get rid of the disease but make it worse instead? I am afraid it will be a disaster It's hard to predict, please think twice before acting, Your Majesty!"

"Shangshu, please, I have lost my mind, so don't say more!" After Cao Mao said this, he threw away the letter in his hand, and went to the palace to bid farewell to Queen Mother Guo.

Watching Cao Mao's figure gradually go away, Wang Chen and Wang Ye looked at each other and took a step together: "Yanwei, shall I report to the general soon?"

"What are you talking about!" Wang Jing burst into tears when he heard the proposal of the two: "We, as Wei officials, are on the occasion of His Majesty's personal expedition, so it's fine if we don't have the courage to follow. How can we betray the master? Conspire against Sima Zhao, Your Majesty!"

Wang Chen and Wang Ye bowed deeply to Wang Jing with blushing faces: "Yanwei is so righteous, I will worship you. But I really can't bear to have all the young and old in the family be ransacked because of me. So I have to sell the master to survive. Yanwei Or come with us!"

After listening to the second king's words, Wang Jing's footsteps faltered for a while—the Sima family's cruelty no longer needs to be proved: in 11 years, too many political enemies of the Sima family have been wiped out.The rolling head has already frightened Cao Wei's ministers to feel cold all over.But Wang Jing wavered for a while and immediately became firm: "Jing is a farmer's son, and was recommended by Xiaohou (Cui Yan's younger brother Cui Lin) to be used by the court. He has been an official in the Wei Dynasty for 20 years. It still has to be reused by the imperial court. Everyone knows Sima Zhao's usurping intentions. If the Great Wei Dynasty is about to perish, there should be ministers who will be buried with him. Jing Yan will live with him!"

Wang Chen and Wang Ye looked at each other, then both knelt down and paid respects to Wang Jing: "Yanwei, take care!"

At the same time, in the deep palace, the Empress Dowager Guo looked at Cao Mao in the battle armor with tears in her eyes.

"Since the Ming Emperor's reign, the Ai family has witnessed Zhao Bo (former Cao Wei general Cao Shuang) being ransacked and beheaded by his family, and watched Lan Qing (Qi Wang Cao Fang) being deposed... I hate the Sima family, every time they do these things , but also to force Ai's family seal, to scold Uncle Zhao and Lan Qing in the tone of Ai's family... Your Majesty is the most talented and martial arts person among the younger generation of the Cao family. It was Ai's insistence that Sima Shili you For the emperor. I just think that one day you can rejuvenate the Cao family...but why is your majesty so worried? If your majesty has three ups and downs, the Ai family will be forced by the Sima family to scold your majesty, and the Cao family will have no hope of revival. Possibly. Why can't Your Majesty think twice?"

"Queen Mother! Today's Great Wei has reached the most critical juncture! Sima Zhao has forced his son to make him a duke. The next step is to be a prince. What is the next step? My son would rather die than become Emperor Xiandi of the Han Dynasty! Mrs. The ancestor overcame the thorns and thorns, and the road was blue. Only then did we conquer the country of my great Wei. If it really wants to perish, there should be an emperor to be buried for him! My son has already thought about it. Although the hope of sending troops this time is extremely small, it may not be without the possibility of success. If it fails, the sons and ministers will definitely lose their lives, but the Sima family's road to usurpation will definitely be delayed for several years. In a few years, I hope that another hero from my Cao family will come forward! Empress Dowager, the sons and ministers will be dead , It’s not that the death is meaningless. My son is trying to buy me a few more years for Da Wei!”

"Hey~~~Your Majesty has already thought of this, what else does the Ai family have to say? Go ahead, take the Yitian sword left by Taizu, and let him drink the blood of power traitors!"

"Here! Empress Dowager, take care!"

……

At the same time, Sima Zhao, who received the news, was already trembling all over his body, "Cao Mao, how dare you do that?"

Anger, fear... Various emotions rushed into my heart in an instant.Sima Zhao's already unhealthy health was even more unbearable at this time.Seeing him staggering and about to fall.

At this time, a delicate but powerful jade hand firmly supported his body: "Son, you can't fall down at this time. If you fall, the Sima family will be the next one to be wiped out." .”

"Yuan Ji." Sima Zhao held Wang Yuanji's hand gratefully: "Has Yuan Ji ever heard of the fact that the emperor personally went to battle against his subjects?"

"Hehehe, what happened today, Zishang? There has been a history of the emperor personally going to battle against his courtiers. In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was not common, but basically they all failed. Of course, today's incident is no exception!"

"Thank you, Yuan Ji." Sima Zhao turned around, the previous flustered emotions had completely disappeared, and he began to issue orders calmly: "Immediately order the general (Sima Ni) to close the palace gate and not let your majesty's team leave the palace. "

"My son, the son will be submissive, so he may not dare to stop him to the end."

"Hehehe, Yuan Ji don't worry. I don't know what the general is like. If you order again, order Gonglu (Jia Chong) to come to my house immediately!"

When Sima Zhao was dispatching troops and generals in his own mansion, Sima Ni, the captain of the Tunqi school, was in the most difficult situation in his life at this time.

As Sima Zhao's half-brother, Sima Ni is quite reliable among the bunch of good-for-nothing sons of Sima's family: knowledgeable, reasonable, and generous.But what this kind of person lacks is firmness and ruthlessness, and his opponents are usually too generous, so they are not afraid of him. And scattered.

"Your Majesty, please rest the thunder! Even if the general made thousands of mistakes, he has made great contributions to Wei. Why did your majesty make such a drastic move?"

"Hehehe, Sima Zhao's contribution is very great! So great that I have to give him the throne as a reward! Don't talk about it, general, will you let me go?"

"Your Majesty, I am really in a dilemma..."

"Forget it, I won't embarrass you. I'll just walk over like this. If you want to kill the king, then come!"

Cao Mao nodded slightly towards his Captain Fengche, Captain Fengche shook the reins, and the chariot Cao Mao was riding in began to move forward slowly.This great sense of oppression made Sima Ni feel a burst of strong pressure, pressing him firmly to the ground, no matter how much he struggled in his heart, he couldn't get up.

The chief general was like this, and the soldiers under Sima Ni's command were even more panicked.It's not that there are no soldiers trying to move their weapons and put on a show.But even this ostentatious behavior was also scolded by the servant boy beside Cao Mao: "Aren't you afraid that you will be annihilated by the three clans if you dare to wave your weapons at the emperor?"

Don't think that the ancients are all stupid, and don't think that the soldiers at the bottom of society are all idiots.They all have their own survival wisdom.Many dare not say it, but everyone understands the saying that "the gods fight and the little ghosts suffer": no matter what the emperor and Sima Gong end up with, this is the matter of the top people.During this process, if that little soldier doesn't open his eyes and enters, no matter what the final outcome is, this little soldier will definitely destroy the three clans!

Watching Sima Ni's soldiers rushing away at last, Cao Maojiang loosened his fist with his fingernails sunk in his flesh because he was too nervous: "Sure enough, these soldiers are not stupid, they all know how to get involved in this kind of thing." No matter what, it will not end well. So, as long as I can break out of this palace and walk to Luoyang Street, no one will dare to stop me at that time, and Sima Zhao will definitely die!"
