Chapter 10 3. North Korea, China and New Zealand Bureau

Strings of autumn rain hit the corners of the roof, and the sound of "tap-tat-tat" was endless, as if someone was beating a small drum in mid-air. Looking out from the window of the bedroom, there have been patches of puddles on the ground of the courtyard dam. When the raindrops hit inside, bubbles of transparent water mushrooms appeared almost everywhere. Sima Shi stood by the window and watched all this silently, deep worry flashed across the corner of his eyes.Recently, he felt very depressed, but it seemed that he had been watered by the continuous autumn rain, like the moss under the front steps of the hall, it was so moldy, there was nowhere to vent or resolve it!Thinking of this, he couldn't help recalling the sonorous years when he accompanied his father in the Guanzhong area to fight against thousands of Shu bandits.It's still such a life full of passion and passion!

"Husband, are you worried about Father's war in Liaodong again?" Yang Huiyu brought a brocade robe and put it on him lightly, "Don't worry about it, Father, your army is like a god, and the world is invincible. Smash the Gongsun traitor." "Huiyu, you don't know. A few days ago, Wu Qiujian, the governor of Youzhou, sent an emergency report on the frontline battle situation, claiming that during this period of time, the whole territory of Liaodong had been raining heavily and the weather was bad. It is very difficult for the city and sleeping, etc., I suggest that the imperial court issue an edict to temporarily cease fighting, and then attack again at an opportunity." Master Sima showed a rare calmness, still staring at the dense rain curtain outside the window, and said deeply, "There is something in the imperial court. Many ministers also agreed with Wu Qiujian's proposal, but his lord father insisted on sending a memorial from the front, hoping that the court would last another month, then he would be able to win Xiangping and decide Liaodong! My lord father is in Adversity, in the face of such bad weather and terrain, it is really amazing to be able to persevere and forge ahead!

"However, Huiyu, you don't know. After all, my father is also a man in his sixties, and his physique is different from that of young strong men. Can he survive in the rainy Liaodong? According to Liang Ji's report, they almost Soaking in the muddy rainwater every day for office and business affairs, the feeling is not to mention how uncomfortable! Some soldiers even had maggots on their waists and legs because they walked around in the waist-deep puddles all day long. The situation is simply appalling! Tell me, how can a husband not worry about the health of his father..."

Yang Huiyu listened, with tears in his eyes, and said softly: "Yes! As the saying goes, the real hero is the one who can endure the hardships of heaven. My father fought against heaven and man with patience and self-sufficiency. It is unmatched by ordinary heroes!" Master Sima's complexion gradually changed again, and his voice trembled slightly: "But...but, Huiyu! Seeing my lord father working so hard for our Sima family, I, Master Sima, can only live in the capital. Standing in the distance, helpless! Thinking of this, my husband's heart is very painful! This Cao Rui is also very cunning, using the position of a regular servant on a loose horse, he tied my husband to the palace and let him monitor him, making her very sad. Husband walks on thin ice all day long, trembling with fear, this is simply not a life that ordinary people can live!"

"Husband...under the current situation, no matter how painful or difficult it is, you have to grit your teeth and hold it back!" Yang Huiyu comforted him with tears in his eyes. Master Sima trembled slightly, and muttered to himself: "Yes! Yes! No matter how painful or difficult it is, as a husband, you have to grit your teeth and hold back! Your father was right before he left, but Ju An will do his best to prevent it. Suffering, change is persevering in order to achieve success!" As he said, he turned his eyes back, and slowly turned to the old, yellowish white silk hanging on the inner wall of the bedroom - it is The Sima family's 100-year-old blood book that was given to Sima Yi during his northern expedition to Liaodong.

Sima Shi stared at the densely packed, large and small, bright red and dazzling "Forbearance" on the silk, and the heartstrings in his chest couldn't help pulsating.yes!Under the current situation, I can only learn from my father to be patient and self-sufficient!Forbearance of impulsiveness, resistance of others, embarrassment, unforeseen ups and downs, work hard in perseverance, forge ahead in forbearance, in the end you will be able to get rid of hardships, is it extremely peaceful?Thinking of this, he let out a long breath from the depths of his chest, as if all the depression and troubles had finally disappeared.Then, he walked to the blood book of Bairen handed down by his ancestor Sima Jun, the general who conquered the West in the Han Dynasty, and slowly stroked it with his hand, and said lightly: "Thank you for your reminder, madam, I know what I should do in the future. My father is working tirelessly in the front for our Sima family's sudden rise and great ambition to turn the world around, and for my husband, I must also work hard at the rear to consolidate the power foundation of our Sima family!"

A deep smile broke out on Yang Huiyu's jade cheeks, and she nodded slightly.She suddenly remembered something, frowned slightly, and said gracefully: "My husband, have you noticed that His Majesty's behavior is very unusual recently! That day, he presented a piece of remonstrance, which refuted him completely. In the end, what is surprising is that His Majesty praised Zishang greatly, and promoted him to the title of Marquis of Xincheng and Township with two thousand households!" "Well... from my husband's point of view, this is your majesty's brilliance recently. The second younger brother went up to remonstrate with him, and he wanted to win the reputation of being honest and loving the people for the Sima family. If your majesty blatantly refuses or Any suppression would only damage his image of Emperor Wei. Therefore, he also came along, on the one hand, he praised his second brother to show his enlightened style, on the other hand, he deliberately praised The second brother drove a secret wedge into our Sima family..." Master Sima obviously had thought about this matter deeply before, and hit the nail on the head when he opened his mouth, "Huiyu, think about it, in my Sima family, except In addition to my father's hard work and great achievements, he was promoted to be the Marquis of Wuyang County, even though the second uncle is so diligent and conscientious, he is still only a Marquis of Wanshou Ting! And the second brother, with a mere memorandum, surpassed the second uncle and us The other brothers became Marquis of Xincheng and Xiang with 2,000 households in Shiyi! This not only shows His Majesty's deliberate praise for his second brother, but also shows his special care for his second brother. He just wants to use this trick to show it very blatantly He is close to the Sima family. Because on the surface, his second brother Yu Taihe served as a captain of the Imperial Army between four and five years! To put it bluntly, he deliberately promoted his second brother, that is, I want to take this opportunity to stir up conflicts between my Sima family's uncle, nephew and brother, so that he can sit by and reap the benefits!"

"So that's the case!" Yang Huiyu was startled, "I never thought His Majesty's scheming was so deep! There are so many tricks hidden between his praise and reward!" "That's not entirely true--His Majesty's own talent, I have witnessed it in the palace. How can he have such a deep city. To be honest, I guess that there must be a very powerful and powerful person hidden behind him." Man! This person is so scheming and scheming that he can almost compete with my lord father!" Sima Shi said in a deep voice, "It's a pity that the traps they set up are of no value to my uncles and nephews of the Sima family. It is completely invalid! Second uncle, will he be jealous of second brother? As soon as second uncle heard that second brother offered that advice, he jumped up for joy in the Shangshutai on the spot, and praised: "My Sima family is upright. For the sake of the people, the style of being outspoken and daring to remonstrate can be said to be followed by someone!' He also compared the second brother to the bone of our Sima family at the end of the Han Dynasty-Sima Zhi! Also, will I be jealous of the second brother? The higher the title of the second brother , the greater the achievement, the happier I will be for him as an elder brother! Outsiders wanting to wait for an opportunity to stir up discord within our Sima family is simply a dream come true!"

Just as he was speaking, there was a loud applause from outside the half-closed door of the bedroom: "Good! Good! Good! Master's words are good!" When Sima Shi and Yang Huiyu heard the applause, they couldn't help turning their heads in shock.With the sound of applause, the door opened, and Zhang Chunhua, who was dressed in a light robe and long sleeves, with multi-colored clouds hanging on his shoulders and a crown of pearls and flowers on his head, walked in gracefully.Behind her were Sima Zhao and Wang Yuanji. "Mother..." When Sima Shi and his wife saw her, they hurriedly greeted her respectfully, and watched her bow their knees and worship her.

"Excuse me." Zhang Chunhua stopped the two of them with a slight wave of his hand, turned around and said to Sima Zhao and Wang Yuanji with deep meaning, "Zhaoer, Yuanji, what the elder brother and sister-in-law said just now, you can all understand outside Do you hear me clearly? Your big brother is indeed your big brother. This kind of love and family affection, this kind of sudden generosity, this kind of love does not count gains or losses, you must sincerely respect it! My Sima family of the Yin Kingdom has been The word "filial piety" is the foundation of the family, as the saying goes, "Brothers are united in one heart, and their benefits can break gold"! The reason why the Cao family in Pei County is far behind my Sima family is that it is weak in the word "filial piety" How much skill! As long as our Sima family unites with sincerity, loves and helps each other, any formidable enemy will have no room to take advantage of!"

The expressions of Sima Zhao and Wang Yuanji were also extremely touched, and they turned their backs to Master Sima and his wife in response: "My younger brother and his sister-in-law have seen the eldest brother and sister-in-law!" "Second brother, younger siblings, please get up!" Sima Shi and his wife hastily helped Sima Zhao and Wang Yuanji to their feet. Zhang Chunhua slowly walked forward and sat down on the main couch in the room, his face gradually serious, and he said slowly: "Shi'er, Zhao'er, Huiyu, Yuanji, the situation in the court recently seems to be calm on the surface, but under the covers It’s a turbulent undercurrent. You must be careful when you speak and act outside. Do you know that Huang Menling was also transferred out and went to Wancheng to serve as the driver of Yuzhou! It’s Cao Shuang’s friend, Huang Mencheng Zhang Dang Take over his position as the order of the Yellow Gate!" When Sima Shi and Sima Zhao heard the words, they couldn't help looking at each other, and they both sighed deeply.It can be seen that Cao Rui and Cao Shuang just wanted to use this Zhang Dang to cut off the daily contact between their Sima family and Sun Zi and Liu Fang.From now on, the communication between Sima Mansion and Lord Sun and Lord Liu in the palace will not be smooth. Zhang Chunhua glanced at the two of his brothers, frowned, and continued to speak slowly: "Ziyuan said a good sentence just now. Your father is working tirelessly ahead for our Sima family's sudden rise and great ambition to turn the world around." , you sons must also plan painstakingly in the rear to consolidate the power foundation of our Sima family! Now, we still have to find another way. Now the imperial concubine Guo Yao's family seems to be very powerful in the palace, and her uncle Guo Zhi has actually been promoted Huben Zhonglang is here! Moreover, according to the news reported by Master Sun and Master Liu, it is said that Concubine Guo Gui is very favored and may be promoted to the head of the harem and in charge of the Phoenix Seal! Therefore, we must also partner with their clan! Relationships become..." Hearing this, Sima Zhao's eyes suddenly flashed, he raised his head, looked up at Zhang Chunhua and said, "Qi mother, I have been thinking about this matter for a long time. My son and Jia Chong, the heir of Jia Kui's governor, have been very close since childhood." Brother, his wife Guo Huai is Guo Guifei's cousin and Guo Zhi's niece. We can use Jia Chong and Guo Huai to get in touch with the Guo family in the harem!" "Well...it's rare that you are so meticulous, Zhao'er, that's great! I'll leave this matter to you!" Zhang Chunhua showed admiration and nodded slightly, "Zhaoer, you are now the chief councilor Lang, you often walk in the inner court. In everything you do, you must establish a good relationship with your colleagues, make more friends and less enemies. Now Doctor Jiang has also been assigned to the position of the Central Guard Army. You should establish a relationship with Doctor Jiang in secret! He But we managed to break into a wedge among the Imperial Palace Imperial Army. Didn’t you previously serve as a captain of the Imperial Army in the Imperial Palace? Secretly select a few capable and capable old subordinates who are loyal to my Sima family and recommend it to you Doctor Jiang, use his hands to revitalize our people!" "Okay." Sima Zhao respectfully replied. When Zhang Chunhua said this, his tone paused slightly, and he shot his burning eyes at Yang Huiyu again: "Huiyu, your younger brother Yang Hu is a top talent among the rising stars in the ruling and opposition parties! Alas, it's a pity that he is Xiahou Ba's son-in-law..." "I tell my mother, although my younger brother Hu is Xiahouba's son-in-law, he is not ambiguous about right and wrong, and he has never succumbed to Xiahouba's rebellious actions." Yang Huiyu looked at Zhang Chunhua's expression very carefully. With a pale face, he slowly replied, "On this point, I can assure you clearly, my brother Hu will never fall to Cao's faction." "You don't have to be nervous." Zhang Chunhua stopped her with a light wave of his hand, "On the contrary, you should be happy that your brother stays with the Xiahou family, and maybe he can play a clever role at some point! Right? " After hearing this, Yang Huiyu realized that her mother-in-law wanted to take advantage of her younger brother's chance to join the Xiahou family and give them a pair of "eyes" that would monitor all movements of the Xiahou family at all times. "!"She sighed silently in her heart, then lowered her head and answered: "Yes. After the child goes down, he will definitely take care of this matter." Zhang Chunhua nodded in satisfaction, and said, "Very good. Huiyu, you are worthy of being a good daughter-in-law of my Sima family by doing this. Don't worry, we won't treat your Hu brother badly." Wang Yuanji watched from the side, with a slight smile on her face: "Sister-in-law can make such sacrifices for our Sima family, Yuan Ji really admires her." Zhang Chunhua was even more happy when he heard that Wang Yuanji was also so reasonable.I am a virtuous daughter-in-law of the Sima family, and she is really the favorite of Baifu, which is gratifying!It took her a long time to calm down, raised her head to look at Sima Shi and Sima Zhao, and said slowly: "Our Sima family should spread all over the government and the public, and the sky net should be restored, and it should not be lost. In recent years, Ruan Ji, Ji Kang, Xiang Xiu, and Liu Ling, a group of young talents, are raising their voices. Xia Houxuan, Cao Shuang, and He Yan have already set their sights on this group of people! Our Sima family cannot be left behind! Shan Tao, the second cousin of your aunt's family, has already been arranged to join their poetry club. With Shan Tao in them, our Sima family will not worry that their group of young talents will escape from our grasp !" When Sima Shi and Sima Zhao heard the words, they couldn't help looking at each other in amazement, mother is really good at tricks!Her plan is so far-reaching, her layout is so thorough, it has really reached the realm of covering everything and detailing everything! Zhang Chunhua looked deeply at the two of them again with unsatisfactory intentions: "You two brothers are busy with official duties in Luoyang City, you should spare time to study more good books, think more about world affairs, and exercise your skills as soon as possible. But you must pay attention to learning according to your nature, practicing according to your heart, and not being forced! From the perspective of your mother, you are more rigid than soft, strong in martial arts and weak in character. Your character is softer than tougher, Wen is strong and martial is weak, you can take Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu as a model and forge ahead. Don't underestimate yourselves. According to your potential, you will be able to compete with Cao Cao and Liu Xiu in the future. He is famous all over the world!" "Reporting to Taiwei, the scouts from the front line came to report that the Yan thief opened the south gate and openly let his soldiers and civilians go out of the city to collect firewood and herd cattle and horses in front of our army. Should our army send troops to fight?" Panting, Yu Song ran into the tent of the Chinese army, bowed to Sima Yi and asked. Sima Yi was leaning on the high bed and reading military books. Hearing Yu Song's question, the light in his eyes flickered and then disappeared, and he muttered: "Oh? The swallow thief is so brave, and he came out to firewood under the eyes of my soldiers in front of the battle." Picking and grazing? Doesn't this mean that I, the mighty Great Wei, are nothing?" "Yes! Yes!" Yu Song said angrily, "I want to tell you, Lord Taiwei, that the Yan thief is so arrogant and arrogant in front of our army. It is unbearable! I must be the teacher of the Great Wei King Charge forward and give them a heavy blow!" After hearing his words, Sima Yi put down his book of war, pondered for a while, slowly shook his head, frowned and said, "It's not right! It's not right! The Swallow Thief took this action to show his pride to me. In fact, he was trying to lure my army to fight. .If our army does not examine the truth and attack it by force, there may be unexpected changes!" Hearing the words, Liang Ji couldn't help asking in surprise: "Master Taiwei, why should you treat mere Gongsun Yuan so seriously? In the past, when you captured Jingzhou New City, Taiwei, you divided your troops into eight groups, working day and night, working tirelessly. We quit, so we were able to pull out the strong city and kill Mengda in half a decade. Now that the army is coming from far away and not stepping up to attack the city, we have been living in the muddy rain and mud for a long time, and let the thieves, woodcutters and shepherds behave freely, how slow it is. I am really puzzled." Sima Yi listened carefully to his speech, but didn't bother him at all. Looking at him and Yu Song, he patiently explained: "Oh? Mr. Liang, do you also have doubts? Let's listen to my detailed analysis. Although the bandit Meng Da has few soldiers, he can feed for a year, but our army has a large number of soldiers but not enough food for a month. How can we plan for a year in one month? How fast is it? Rather than competing for food! Now that the swallows are numerous and our army is few, the swallows have little food and our army has enough food, and the rain is so thick, even if we attack as quickly as possible, the effect will not be very great! "Since my army set off from the capital, I am not worried about the attack of the swallows and the thieves, but I am afraid that the thieves will escape! Right now the rebel army is sitting in a lonely city, with food and grass exhausted, and our army's 200-mile circle around the city has not yet completely encircled the company. If it is not very strong, if it ignores the overall situation and plunders its cattle and horses and steals its firewood, it will actually drive the enemy away! How can it be so confused? There is an old saying: soldiers are deceitful, good at changing due to events, good at random Yes. The Yan thief relies on the rain, so although the hunger and poverty have been revealed, they are not willing to let go. Our army properly shows their incompetence to confuse them and make them suffocate themselves in the isolated city! Taking a little profit indiscriminately and disturbing their hearts for no reason is really true. Not a good strategy!" Yu Song was originally a person with a delicate mind, and when he heard Sima Yi's analysis so brilliantly, he couldn't help but admire secretly, this Sima Taiwei really deserves to be the top general and genius in the world today!These words have already grasped the general situation of the enemy and ourselves, as if seeing the palm prints, Gongsun Yuan has fallen into his trap for a long time! "However, it's raining so hard here..." Liang Ji said with a worried expression on his face, "If you keep soaking in this puddle, pus and maggots will grow all over your body..." Sima Yi glared at him coldly: "It's true that you've all had a hard time soaking in the puddles of rainwater recently. Could it be that I've just stayed at a high place to avoid the water? I've survived a long time, you young men Is the young man no better than this seat? Even if pus and maggots grow on our heads, we have to endure it! Only by enduring the pain of suffering can we gain the benefit of profit!" Then, he slowly turned his eyes to the outside of the tent window, looked at the water splashing all over the ground, and said solemnly: "No matter how urgent the rain is, no matter how strong the wind is, there will eventually be a day when the wind stops and the rain stops. As long as we can bear it to the end, we will definitely win to the end! Yu Song, pass on your order, especially to give a patient explanation to Murong Ba and Gao Yunming. As soon as the heavy rain stops, we will besiege Xiangcheng in all directions. Onslaught, vent the depression of the past few days!" Just as he was talking, Hu Fen, the captain of the battalion, stepped into the camp and said in a loud voice: "Lord Taiwei, my subordinates have just inspected the entire army, and found that Zhang Jing, the food supervisor, moved his dormitory to Gaoqiu without authorization. The soldiers of the rear battalion are talking about it!" "Zhang Jing?" Sima Yi asked in surprise.Liang Ji's eyes flickered, he leaned forward, and said in a low voice, "Zhang Jing was recommended by Cao Shuang and Xia Houxuan to join the camp in the capital of Luoyang that day." Sima Yi raised his eyebrows, and ordered to Hu Fen solemnly: "Zhang Jing dared to violate the military order and avoid labor. It is really not enough to calm down the army if he does not kill him. You behead him immediately to show the public, as an example to others!" If ministers are too serious, the country will be in danger, and those who are too close to each other will be blinded. This is the most precept in ancient times.In the past, the ministers were doing their jobs, fanning the outside and inside.Your Majesty Zhuoran has seen all the opportunities for himself, and he is all serious.Husbands and ministers are not disloyal, but when the authority is low, the hearts of the people will be slow, and the situation is always there.Since your majesty has observed it in the ministers, I hope you will never forget it.The left and right are loyal and far-sighted, and they may not be better than the ministers. As for making arrangements and combining them, they may be able to work.As far as the outside world is concerned, although the book in the cloud makes Gong Shen dare not make diplomacy, but with this name, it still confuses the world.In fact, the important thing is that the day is at present, and if there is some restraint due to fatigue, all the ministers will see that they can move on to the matter, and they will follow it according to the time.Once there is such an end, because it should be self-contained internally, this multi-language, privately handed over, is used as internal aid.If this is the case, whether it is praised or not, there must be prosperity, and rewards and punishments for meritorious service must be changed;It enters because of the subtlety, and emerges from the shape, and the meaning is believed, no longer guessing.This should be heard by the sage and wise, and the meaning of the scriptures will appear in the form.Or if the courtiers are afraid of disagreement and will be resented by the left and right, it is not appropriate to hear it.Your Majesty, Your Majesty, meditates, listens, and observes. If there are things that are not completely rational and things are not useful, I will change the song and change the tune, far away from the achievements of Huang and Tang, and close to the traces of Zhaowu and Wen. Is it just a recent study?However, you still can't understand the world's affairs so that you can understand yourself, and you should pay for it.If the three officials are all ministers, if they are not loyal to the Duke of Zhou, and they are not the one who is in charge of Yiwu, then there will be disadvantages of playing games and defeating officials.Although there are few pillars of officials today, as far as the line is called a state, the wise and effective official, loyal and dedicated, each fulfilling his duties, they can be urged together, so that the sage dynasty will not have the name of a special official. Xia Houxuan read the "Admonishing Your Majesty to Discipline His Left and Right Relatives" written by Jiang Ji slowly, read and read it repeatedly, and sighed deeply: "Uncle Zhao, Xuan found that Your Majesty has been quite eloquent recently. Taking people is also an act of rewarding people for their words. Last time, Sima Zishang won the title of Marquis of Xincheng and Township with a piece of advice; So he entered the Imperial Palace and took up the position of the Central Guard. That's all right, after all, they both paid something to get this reward. Sima Zishang took the risk of offending His Majesty, and Doctor Jiang also took the risk of offending Zhong Zhong. The risk of the book province... Therefore, even Lu Yushangshu, the official who has always been fond of criticizing people, let them go all the way through the appointment edict, and did not stop them. It's just that the new boss of the palace, Guo Zhi, he can be promoted to this position by "carp jumping over the dragon's gate", but it is a bit unconvincing!" "That's right! Your Majesty insists on going his own way and desperately inserting a Guo Zhi among the imperial guards in our palace. Doesn't this mean that he wants to use his relatives again?" Cao Shuang also had an unhappy expression on his face. Yun, the families of the descendants are not allowed to accept the nobles of Maotu, and they are not allowed to participate in the auxiliary government. Has your Majesty forgotten all the plots of the old lady Guo, Guo Biao, Guo Jin and other relatives back then? He is so important now. What is the intention of the Yao and Guo Zhi clans?" "Does it need to be said?" Xia Houxuan gave Cao Shuang a white look, "Why can't you even understand this point? Throughout the ages, the primary purpose of the emperor's re-use of foreign relatives is to check and balance the clan's nobles. If your majesty wants to deal with ministers with different surnames such as the Sima family, As long as we rely on our old acquaintances such as the Cao family and Xiahou's family, it is enough, why bother to force Guo Zhi, who is incompetent in civil and military skills, to come in?" Cao Shuang's expression changed a few times, and he sighed deeply. : Maybe, in His Majesty's mind, he doesn't know who he should trust and rely on in this world, right? Xia Houxuan still chattered over there: "My Xiahou family has been famous for its military achievements for generations, but I don't even bother to sit side by side with Guo Zhi, a mediocre person who has made a fortune through nepotism! He came to be this hubby general. , this seat is ultimately unwilling to accept." When the autumn wind rises, white clouds fly, and when the grass and trees fall yellow, the geese return to the south.The orchids are beautiful and the chrysanthemums are fragrant, and the beautiful women are not to be forgotten.Panlou boats come to the Jifen River, cross-flows come to Yangsubo, and flutes and drums sing and sing.Extremely happy and sad, how long will you be young and strong? Nai Laohe? Leaning on the side of the dragon boat, Cao Rui looked at the sunlight and clouds reflected on the surface of the Yellow Dragon Pool, and slowly recited the song "Autumn Wind Song" written by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, with tears already in his eyes.The water in Huanglongchi is as blue as jade and as calm as a mirror. The dragon boat slowly opened a green rainbow on the water and sailed into the depths of the cloudy water. "My dear concubine, pass on the decree for me, so that the imperial hospital no longer has to adjust the jade nectar!" Cao Rui picked up a pool of water with his hand, sat in the palm of his hand, and watched the strands of water flow from between his fingers. Qinqin shed tears, "The prescription Cao Shuang gave has no effect at all! I have been taking it for nine days and nine nights, and my body still hasn't improved!" "Yes. The concubine will go back to deliver the decree after the dragon boat docks." Guo Yao replied softly. "In life, the best choice is to have fun in time." Cao Rui said leisurely, "When you go to the imperial hospital to pass the decree, by the way, let Cairen Shishi and the others prepare a feast of singing and dancing in Fanglin Garden. You are going to have a good night there tonight!" Guo Yao's cheeks flushed pink: "Okay. My concubine thanked Your Majesty for your kindness!" "By the way, I heard that Xia Houxuan's attitude towards General Guo Zhi seems to be very bad?" Cao Rui turned his eyes and looked deeply at Guo Yao, "It's really hard for you to pretend like a golden gourd in front of me! Forget it, find an opportunity to comfort your uncle and tell him to let Xia Houxuan and the others take care of him. Xia Houxuan and Cao Shuang are both nobles of my Wei family. The poor family of the common people. However, as long as I treat you well, that's enough..." "Your Majesty is so considerate of my concubine, I am very grateful." Guo Yao said in a soft tone, "After my concubine returns, I will comfort and restrain my uncle. But I don't know that Xia Houxuan is so arrogant, Cao Shuang They are so flashy and lustful, who should come to check them in the middle? Besides, His Majesty Longwei is still there, and they seem to be unable to tolerate their concubines. As the uncle of Huben Zhonglang, what if..." Speaking of this, Suddenly shut his mouth and stopped talking. Cao Rui's expression has changed several times in the short span of a few words.First of all, it is exactly what he wants in his heart to drive a wedge between the foreign relatives and the clan Sugui to cause discord; Unwilling to endure; third, the relationship between foreign relatives and the clan's nobles must be operated as "two wheels of a car, two wings of a bird". This is the key factor for maintaining the long-term stability of the Wei family. power structure.But now, can I control the relationship between the two of them?Cao Rui didn't have enough confidence in his heart.He fixed his thoughts, raised his eyes suddenly, pierced Guo Yao's face with sharp eyes, and said in a deep voice: "You Guo family must never have such thoughts. If I die one day , your Guo family, Xiahou family, and Cao family must be sincerely united and treat each other with sincerity! Remember! Remember! In front of powerful officials with different surnames, the relatives of the Wei family and the clan relatives Sugui really benefit from cooperation, and both benefit from separation. Harm!" "Your Majesty, you think too much. Although the concubine complains a little in her heart, she will never miss the overall situation. The concubine and relatives of the family will definitely be respectful and prudent in the future, and get along well with the Xiahou family and the Cao family. "Guo Yao naturally didn't dare to raise any objections in front of Cao Rui at this moment, and hurriedly put on a smile to perfunctory her face.She thought to herself, everyone said that the Sima family in Hanoi was so powerful, it sounded like Gonggao, I couldn't be more slow, but recently Uncle Guo Zhi often talked to herself about how the Sima family treated us Guo members. He is extremely humble and sincere, compared to Cao Shuang, Xia Houxuan and the others, I don't know how many times warmer they are!It seems that the Sima clan of the so-called "Quanhao with different surnames" is actually not so unpredictable and terrifying! While she was thinking about it, Cao Rui spoke slowly again: "My concubine, I have decided to make Fang'er the crown prince, and you have to take good care of him and support him for me from now on..." Hearing this, Guo Yao couldn't help shaking her heart, and her face changed color slightly.what... what?His Majesty really wants to establish Cao Fang, a "wild species" who came from nowhere, as the crown prince?This...how can this be done?Cao Fang is so young, can she take on the role of the East Palace?In fact, Guo Yao knew the details of Cao Fang's background.Cao Rui had always been childless among the concubines of the six palaces. Later, during a night trip to Furong Pond, she accidentally got lucky with a palace maid and gave birth to Cao Fang.The old Empress Guo of Yong'an Palace disliked the humble status of the palace maid, and feared that she would regard her son as the most precious and become her own opponent in the harem, so she secretly asked the eunuch to poison her to death on the night of her childbirth.In this way, as soon as Cao Fang was born, he became an illegitimate son with no father and no mother in the harem of the Great Wei Dynasty.Cao Rui asked Cao Fang to be fostered under Guo Yao's knee since she was three years old.But he is not her own after all, Guo Yao can't have a strong blood relationship with him no matter what.Therefore, Guo Yao was not particularly happy when she heard that Cao Fang was going to be crowned prince today. Instead, she thought that Cao Fang's background was not right, and it was not suitable for her to be a successor. When she was tangled in her thoughts, she looked up and saw Cao Rui's meaningful eyes sweeping towards her face. She knew that all of this had already been planned in Cao Rui's mind, so she could only bow and say: "My concubine congratulates your majesty on the crown prince of the East Palace." The position is fixed, and the concubines must regard Fang'er as their own, and support her wholeheartedly!" After the rain in the capital city of Luoyang, the air was exceptionally fresh. Although it was an autumn rain and then a chill, the coolness increased a bit, but the haze that had lasted for many days was swept away, which made people feel extra refreshing. On the side of the road in Beifang market, Sima Shi, who had come down from the imperial court, and Jia Chong, who was the secretary of the court Wei's office, were walking side by side with their official documents in their arms. Jia Chong glanced at the large pile of bamboo and silk documents in Sima Shi's arms, and said with emotion: "Mr. Sima, can you bear the trouble of burying your head in these boring bamboo and silk documents every day? I'm afraid it would be better without you." In the past, galloping freely and freely on the Guanzhong battlefield!" "Ah! Master, now that he has been serving as a regular attendant of scattered riders, he really understands the true meaning of Ban Chao's lament of joining the army!" Sima Shi tightened the bamboo and silk documents in his arms, wanting to grow up. I complained, but when the words came to my lips, I changed my mind, and deliberately understated the point to stop. Jia Chong is also a smart and witty person, so he explained to him: "Sima Jun, as the saying goes, God gives me things to train my talents. As long as you do it with your heart, you can say that you can't get anything and feel complacent. There is a saying , the tree that embraces you is born at the end of the hair; 90% of the platform starts from the pile of soil; the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. In Jia's opinion, Mr. Sima, you are busy with chores today, how do you know that this is not God's will? Are you preparatory for your future visit to Jinglun Avenue?" Hearing Jia Chong's words, Master Sima couldn't help feeling warm in his heart, but his face remained calm, and he said respectfully: "Jia Jun, you are too fond of me! Master is working in the university, so I just want to be free from thoughts. It's a blessing to be exonerated, how dare you have such lofty aspirations as you say, and don't want to be content with your position!" "Mr. Sima, you are treating Jia as an outsider!" Jia Chong's face turned red, and the circles of his eyes suddenly turned red, "My father and Mr. Taiwei were always close friends, and our two families have always had family friends. Friendship. Back then, my father died of illness, and if there was no Taiwei to manage the business, how could Jia have come here today? Naturally, Jia is looking forward to the rise and prosperity of the Zunfu with all his heart!" Hearing Jia Chong's words from the bottom of his heart, Master Sima couldn't help being moved, he took out his hand and gently stroked Jia Chong's shoulder, everything was speechless.It turned out that when Jia Kui, Jia Chong's father, was the governor of Yangzhou during his lifetime, he did not have a good relationship with the noble clans such as Cao Xiu, the general of Zhendong, and Cao Zhen, the general of Zhengxi, so he was often suppressed and suppressed. It's so deserted and deserted!In this bleak predicament, it was Sima Yi who brought Man Chong, Tian Yu, Wang Chang, Wang Guan and other generals from Dongjiang to send charcoal to Muxue, and risked offending the nobles of the Cao family, to come to Jia's mansion to pay tribute to the mourning and condolences. Jia Chong was deeply moved by his kindness and friendship.Later, it was Sima Yi who fought for Jia Kui's posthumous title of "Su Hou" in the court, and urged His Majesty to posthumously bestow Jia Kui as Yushi Zhongcheng to show his honor.Therefore, Jia Chong's family has always been deeply grateful to Sima Yi and respected him as the father and grandfather.And Sima Yi and his son also treat Jia Chong as their own, and never treat each other like outsiders. At this moment, Sima Shi and Jia Chong were talking and walking by themselves, when they suddenly heard a deafening noise from the street behind them - they turned their heads in surprise, only to hear a loud "rumbling rumbling", Jeweled with gold and jade, the gorgeous and astonishing carriage dragged along the billowing smoke and dust and galloped towards it!All the shops and stalls on both sides of the street were knocked upside down by these two carriages, and all the utensils, clothes, food, and cloth were scattered all over the floor!The townspeople stomped and scolded, and chased after... But the two carriages ignored them completely, and still rushed forward! Seeing Master Sima raised his eyebrows, he wanted to stand up and stop him.Jia Chong hurriedly took the bamboo and silk document from Sima Shi's arms and put it on the ground, reached out and grabbed Sima Shi's robe corner, and shouted in a low voice: "Mr. Sima, you must not—" Master Sima was stunned, and only heard a "rumbling" sound passing by his ears, and the two carriages rushed past him.The strong wind brought by the carriage made him take two or three steps back!He wanted to go forward again at this time, but the two carriages had already disappeared without a trace, how could he catch up? "You...why are you stopping me?" Master Sima shouted angrily at Jia, "How can you easily let go of such a madman who disturbs the people and disrupts the market and hunts down the people?" “司马君！这大街之上，舆车无眼，横冲直撞，万一误伤了你，这可如何是好？”贾充满脸委屈地说道，“贾某这么做都是为了你好啊！唉！这不过是武卫将军的两个弟弟在街道上赛车赛马罢了！贾某平时每次从这里步行回家，都会见到这一幕场景的……说实话，贾某对这些早就习以为常了！司马君你犯得着和他们一般见识吗？” “武卫将军的两个弟弟？”司马师听着，不由得一怔。 “曹训和曹彦啊！”贾充附在司马师耳边轻轻说道，“他俩经常出入大内，靠着曹爽将军的关系把陛下车驾的御马偷乘出来当街赛跑。真是声色犬马，肆无忌惮！” 司马师暗暗捏紧了拳头：“曹爽难道就这么眼睁睁地看着他这两个弟弟如此胡作非为？” “唉，司马君你这话就问得太浅了。曹爽自己也是奢靡成性，喜好浮华，己身既已不正，又如何能够率下正人呢！”贾充幽幽一叹，从地上又拾起了那些竹帛文牍抱在怀里，“罢了！罢了！这从来就是洛阳的一道风景。司马君你看到一起就愤怒一起，哪有那么多怒气发泄得尽啊！” 司马师却不认同他这后面的腔调，愤愤然一跺脚，冷声道：“家父与诸位将士尚在前方出生入死，浴血奋战，拼得何其辛苦！这曹家兄弟竟在后方徇私枉法，声色犬马，寻欢作乐，胡作非为！真是令人扼腕嗟叹！” 贾充一瞧司马师这怒气勃发的模样，害怕旁人听见，慌得上前拿袖掩住了他的口：“这些曹家宿贵可是司马君你现在轻易指斥得起的？走吧！走吧！你这满腔义愤日后且留着自己有权有位可以大展身手之时再来发泄吧！”
