Cao Rui finished handling political affairs in the East Hall, returned to the West Hall, and was about to rest for a while, when he heard that Mrs. Yu asked to see him.

When Cao Rui heard this, his brows furrowed slightly, he didn't think about it, but he thought about today's court meeting, thought about it, and finally said, "Let her in." ”

When Cao Rui was still the king of the plains, Cao Pi once took the daughter of the Hedong family Yu as the princess, in order to appease the Hedong family, so the Yu family was the main family.

But Cao Rui prefers Mao.

Mao was also elected to the palace in the early Huang Dynasty, from a humble background, and his father Mao Jia was a lathe worker who built and repaired cars.

Mao is not only beautiful and lovely, but also has a docile temperament and is accommodating to Cao Rui.

is not like the Yu family, because he was born in a family, he has less respect for Cao Rui on weekdays.

"The concubine has seen Your Majesty."

Yu came in and saluted Cao Rui.

To be honest, the Yu family is also a beauty, after all, the aesthetic ability of Cao Cao and Cao Pi's father and son is not bad.

It's just that Cao Rui's biological mother was first given to death, and then Cao Pi thought that he was dissatisfied and wary, and finally succeeded to Queen Guo as his son.

However, Empress Guo is related to the death of his biological mother.

Compared with Cao Pi's other sons, Cao Rui's experiences are too bumpy, which not only creates his cautious character, but also makes him have an unknown inferiority complex when he is young.

Yu's background is good, and he naturally has seen a lot of things, and he has received various educations since he was a child, and he has his own opinions, and his personality is somewhat stronger than that of Mao, so he is not liked by Cao Rui.

This situation was not obvious before, but since Cao Rui became the emperor and first took power, he immediately established the Mao family as a noble concubine, almost on an equal footing with the position of Yu's wife.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"What's the matter with you?"

Cao Rui asked flatly.

"Back to Your Majesty, the concubine heard that Your Majesty has worked hard to deal with the government, so she specially cooked some tea soup to refresh Your Majesty."

When Cao Rui heard this, she glanced at the Yu family with some disgust, didn't she really know that she didn't like to drink tea soup?

Yu noticed Cao Rui's expression and secretly gritted her teeth, if she had known that this man was so cold-hearted, she would not have married in the first place.

Don't look at the Cao family is now a royal clan, but going back a few decades, it is just a eunuch and is despised by the world.

Thinking like this in his heart, Yu's face was full of smiles, "Your Majesty, this tea soup is not the tea soup we drank in the past. I heard that this tea soup came from the south, and there was nothing but tea leaves. ”

"This tea, I don't know how to brew, has its own mellow fragrance, soaked in hot soup, drinking can not only refresh the mind, but also clear the heat and cool, it is a good drink when you are tired in the summer summer."

When Cao Rui heard this, he asked with some surprise, "And this kind of tea?" ”

Seeing Cao Rui's interested appearance, Yu Shi hurriedly took the tray from the palace maid behind him and brought it to Cao Rui's desk.

There was a pot in the tray, an ear cup, and a bowl with brown tea leaves in the bowl.

Yu Shi first took the pot, poured boiling water into the ear cup, then picked up the ear cup with his slender hand and gently swung it, and finally poured it into the washing plate brought by the palace maid.

After washing the ear cup, Yu pinched the orchid fingers, pinched a small pinch of tea leaves with three plain fingers, put it inside, and then picked up the pot and poured boiling water into it.

After a while, the white gas steamed up, and a fragrance that had never been smelled came to his nose, and Cao Rui couldn't help but take a breath.

In the whole process, Yu's movements are smooth and beautiful, showing the good appearance of the daughter of the family, not to mention, and even has a sense of immersion in it.

This is unique to the Yu family, and the Mao family, who is from a humble background, does not have this kind of cultivation.

"Your Majesty, please drink tea and be careful of scalding."

Before Cao Rui could come back to his senses, he saw Yu Shi holding the ear cup in both hands and blowing it gently on his mouth, and then brought it to Cao Rui's eyes and said coquettishly.

"Okay."

Cao Rui nodded, this kind of tea soup was something he had never seen before, and he couldn't help but be a little curious.

He took the ear cup and took a small sip carefully, at first he felt that there was no taste, and then he took another sip, and finally tasted it, the soup was a little astringent, but then it was fragrant between the teeth, and at the same time there was a sweetness that seemed to be nothing.

"This tea soup is really good." Cao Rui nodded, "How come I haven't seen it before?" ”

"This is a tea from the south, and it is different from the previous tea soup. The minister's family, also sent someone to teach the concubine how to make tea, if His Majesty has free time in the future, but also invite His Majesty to the harem garden, where to taste tea, there is a different taste. ”

Cao Rui remembered the performance of the Yu family just now, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart: This Yu family, it seems that it is not all good?

Thinking like this, he couldn't help but reach out and hold her hand, "Why don't you accompany me in the West Hall tonight?" ”

When Yu heard this, he was overjoyed, "The concubine obeys Your Majesty's wishes." ”

At this moment, I only heard the waiter hurriedly come to report, "Your Majesty, the Zhongshu ordered Sun Zi to ask Your Majesty to see him, saying that there is an urgent report." ”

Cao Rui suddenly got up, "Where are the others?" ”

Zhongshu ordered Sun Zi to be in charge of confidential matters, if he said that there was an urgent report, it was basically a big deal, how could Cao Rui dare to be careless?

"I am waiting for Your Majesty in the East Hall."

"Okay, I'll go right over."

After finishing speaking, he didn't care about the Yu family and left in a hurry.

Yu Shi looked at Cao Rui's back and stomped his feet angrily.

Cao Rui was not in the mood to care about the harem woman's thoughts, he rushed to the east hall, and as soon as he came in, he split his head and asked, "Where is Sun Zi?" ”

"The ministers and grandsons have seen Your Majesty."

Sun Zi, who had been waiting for a long time, hurriedly saluted.

"From. Tell me, what's going on? ”

Before Cao Ruiren could sit down, he asked urgently.

"Back to Your Majesty, there is news from Longxi that Zhuge Liang, the pseudo-prime minister of Shu Kou, led the army into Hanzhong, and now he is entrenched in Nanzheng, I am afraid that it will be unfavorable to my Great Wei."

Sun Zi said with a somewhat solemn expression.

In the eighteenth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao was named the Duke of Wei by Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and he could independently establish official subordinates.

From that time on, he was the Cao family's right-hand man.

Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty, and Sun Zi's intelligence contributed a lot.

It can be said that the position of Zhongshu Ling has an extremely authoritative position in Cao Wei.

"What? Shu Kou? ”

Cao Rui was taken aback, "Could it be that you want to invade Guanzhong from Hanzhong?" ”

"We don't know yet."

Sun Zi shook his head, "This is the news that Longxi and Guanzhong have just sent back, what Zhuge Liang is going to do, we have to wait for the news later." ”

Cao Rui frowned, and said hatefully, "Last year, it was Dongwu, and now it is Xishu, they all bullied me when I was young!?" ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Sun Zi, "Sun Zhongshuling, what do you think, what does Zhuge Liang want?" ”
