Fazheng went north with his mission. When he left Xiangyang, he entered Nanyang.

Arriving at the junction of Yuzhou and Nanyang, Fazheng arrived at Zhang Ren's barracks.

Zhang Rende knew that Fazheng was going north and wanted to send troops to escort him, but Fazheng refused.

This time, he was an envoy of the state of Chu.

He went to the state of Wei as an envoy. Even if the people of the state of Wei wanted to kill him, they would not fight him.

FA Zhengyi entered Yuzhou and was soon discovered by the Wei government.

He reported his identity and purpose, which was released by the Wei government, but the news had already been sent back to Yecheng.

The news reached Yecheng at the end of March.

After receiving the news, Cao Pi did not dare to hide it and went directly to see Cao Cao.

In the study.

Cao Pi saluted and said, "my son has seen my father."

Cao Cao put down his pen, looked up at Cao Pi and said, "what's the matter?"

Today, Cao Cao has almost recovered.

However, Cao Cao did not take over the power, and his daily affairs were still handed over to Cao Pi.

Cao Cao holds only military power.

Cao Pi respectfully said: "father, just received the news, Chu envoy Fazheng, is heading for Yecheng."

Cao Cao said, "what will the other party do?"

At the moment, Cao Cao was a little curious.

Cao Pi replied, "it is said that he came to make an alliance with his father."

"Alliance?"

Cao Cao's eyes coagulated and his face was filled with emotion.

He and Liu Xiu fought each other to death last year. Now Liu Xiu has sent envoys to Yecheng on his own initiative.

That's interesting.

From this level, we can see that Liu Xiu is a mature opponent.

Don't cling to past hatred.

For the sake of interests, to be able to put down face.

Yuan Shao, Cao Cao's former opponent, was a very proud and conceited man. It would be impossible to let Yuan Shao bow his head, but Liu Xiu was different.

Liu Xiu is cunning, more flexible, and a great enemy of Cao Cao.

Cao Cao asked, "what is Liu Xiu's Alliance for?"

Cao Pi shook his head and said, "I don't know for the moment!"

Cao Pi didn't quite agree with Liu Xiu's alliance.

The state of Wei and the state of Chu have long been enemies of life and death.

In particular, Liu Xiu poached Jia Xu and killed Xia Houdun and Xia Houyuan, which resulted in the successive defeats of the state of Wei

A series of hatred, both sides have long been hostile.

Liu Xiu made an alliance at this time. Cao Pi really wanted to send someone to kill Fazheng and teach Liu Xiu a lesson.

Cao Cao looked up and saw Cao Pi's look. He asked, "pi'er, what do you think of Liu Xiu's sending someone to form an alliance?"

Cao Pi said directly: "my son thinks it's not right!"

Cao Cao said, "why?"

As soon as this remark came out, Cao Pi thought about it.

Although he was listed as the son of the king of Wei, he was not the only brother competing with him.

Therefore, Cao Pi had to be careful in his words and deeds.

Even if he does not agree with the alliance, there must be a proper reason.

Cao Pi said: "there are two reasons why children's ministers do not agree with the alliance."

Cao Cao nodded slightly and motioned Cao Pi to continue.

Cao Pi explained: "first, what about the alliance between Wei and Chu? The state of Wu in Jiangdong was isolated, so Liu Xiu could only be saved. At that time, Liu Xiu's taking over the state of Wu will be extremely disadvantageous to us. "

"To unite with the state of Chu and abandon the state of Wu, my son thinks it is to buy a pearl."

"The state of Wu is our ally, and the state of Chu is our enemy."

Cao Pi talked with great eloquence and gave his first reason.

This reason is business.

This is from the perspective of Wei.

"What about the second?" Cao Cao asked

Cao Pi replied: "second, the whole state of Wei was hostile to Chu. Both of them died at the hands of Liu Xiu. Jia Xu and Zhang Yan were persuaded to surrender by Liu Xiu. Wei and Chu in our country, there is hatred. If you ally with Chu, don't you beat yourself in the face? "

After listening, Cao Cao nodded.

Cao Pi's analysis is reasonable.

It can be seen that Cao Pi used his heart.

Among his sons, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang are the main ones.

However, Cao Zhi is partial to Literature and more willful.

Cao Zhang, on the other hand, was military minded and not interested in government affairs.

We can fight the world at once, but we can't govern the world at once.

All in all, Cao Pi is the most suitable.

Moreover, Cao Pi also had his own views and certain political opinions.

Cao Cao thought about it and asked, "is that all?"

On hearing this, Cao Pi choked.

He thought, isn't father satisfied?

Cao Pi's brain is running fast, but he can think about it. For a while, he can't think of any other problems.Finally, Cao Pi shook his head.

He could not figure out what Cao Cao thought, and could not think of any other problems.

Cao Cao didn't give any advice. He said directly: "Liu Xiu sent someone to make an alliance and send orders to go on. There is no way to stop him along the way. What's more, he should protect Fazheng and let him arrive safely. If there is any obstruction, kill it! "

Hiss!

After listening, Cao Pi took a cool breath in his heart.

Listen to what Cao Cao means, is he planning to ally with the state of Chu?

Cao Pi suddenly regretted that he had known that Cao Cao was thinking this way, so he was not in a hurry to put forward his own ideas.

This time, it is totally contrary to Cao Cao's opinion.

Cao Pi's heart was dripping blood, but his face didn't reveal anything. He respectfully said, "son, I'll arrange it now."

Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "step back!"

"Here it is

Cao Pi left respectfully.

He left the palace of King Wei and soon returned to his residence.

Cao Pi was very decisive in his work, and he was also a man of vigorous and resolute conduct. As soon as he returned to shizifu, he passed on Cao Cao's order and let the people below carry it out.

It was only Cao Cao's intention that Cao Pi was not clear after thinking about it.

Finally, Cao Pi changed his coat and left shizifu.

After leaving the house, he went to the East Street of Yecheng.

The East Street of Yecheng is not a place where dignitaries gather, but many officials of the court are here.

Cao Pi's carriage stopped outside a mansion. After getting out of the carriage, he went straight to the mansion. And the attendants at the gate did not stop Cao Pi.

Obviously, Cao Pi is a frequent visitor.

Cao Pi went around the front hall, through the corridor and straight to the backyard.

In the backyard, there is a pond.

At the edge of the pond, a middle-aged man, 30 years away, was fishing.

His surname is Sima, his name is Yi, and his name is Zhongda.

Today, Sima Yi holds a post in the palace of King Wei and serves as the long history of Cao Cao.

Sima Yi was dressed in a black robe. She was very beautiful, but her eyes were long and narrow, with a touch of gloom.

Cao Pi came to Sima Yi and said, "sir!"

After the ceremony, Cao Pi ignored Sima Yi and sat down beside him.

Sima Yi squinted at Cao Pi and asked, "how can I come here today when I'm free?"

Cao Pi was distressed and said, "I've come to consult you."

He has a great respect for Sima Yi. On the one hand, Sima Yi is talented. On the other hand, Sima Yi once helped him to speak when he was the emperor.

To a certain extent, Sima Yi is his man and his brain trust.

Sima Yi said, "say it!"

Cao Pi said directly: "today I received news that Chu sent envoy Fazheng to Yecheng to make alliance with Wei."

"My father asked me for advice, and I said it was not suitable for the league."

"I list two reasons. One is that the alliance with the state of Chu will abandon Sun Quan. The other is that there is a deep hatred between the state of Wei and the state of Chu, and the people below will not agree."

"But after listening, my father did not express his opinion."

Cao Pi's expression was a little uneasy, and he said: "my father directly asked me to send an order to allow Fazheng to enter Yecheng, and even ordered me to kill those who were blocked along the way. I can't guess if my father doesn't understand. What do you mean, father? "
