Chapter 252: Xu Tian, King of Chu (3)

When Cao Pi came to Xudu, it was already dark.

As soon as he received his father's summons, he hurried day and night to come here as fast as he could.

Not for anything else, but he heard that his father was seriously ill.

Cao Cao is old, coupled with years of hard work, his body is not as good as day by day.

Even he himself was not sure, maybe one day he would lie down and never get up again.

As soon as he entered the city, Cao Pi was taken to the palace.

As soon as he arrived, someone greeted this kind of thing, and Cao Pi was not surprised.

You must know that no matter where Cao Cao is, his eyeliner and ears are countless.

No matter what happened anywhere, Cao Cao would be the first to know.

Otherwise, how could there be that sentence, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive!

Moreover, this is also the treatment that he deserves.

Walking into the palace, Cao Pi saw many officials standing at the gate of the palace.

Almost all of them looked at each other in fear, but did not speak.

It's a very weird scene...

There was a seat at the entrance of the main hall, and Sima Yi knelt on it.

The body is straight, the face is serious, and the sitting posture is quite noble.

When he heard footsteps in the distance, he slowly turned his head to look.

When he saw Cao Pi, his tense body relaxed slightly.

He seemed to have been sitting here for a long time, and it seemed a little difficult to get up.

It took two efforts to barely stand firm.

After moving his body slightly, Sima Yi greeted him.

"Meet Childe!" Sima Yi bowed.

"Hello sir!" Cao Pi also returned the favor.

After the two exchanged politeness, Cao Pi consciously took Sima Yi aside.

"How's my father?" Cao Pi's expression was very concerned.

Sima Yi looked into the other party's eyes and smiled slightly.

It can be seen that Cao Pi really cares about Cao Cao, which can be seen from his eyes.

It's just that whether he cares about Cao Cao's body or when he closes his eyes is unknown.

"King Wei has been here for three days, and since he returned here, he has been staying in the main hall.

The only order given was to summon the son. ”

"Father summoned me only?" Cao Pi's eyes narrowed.

"When I left, Zijian (Cao Zhi, Zijian) was not in Yecheng!"

Sima Yi sighed in his heart, at this time, the other party was still worried about his status.

"As far as I know, no!" Sima Yi turned around and stretched out his hand in the direction of the main hall.

"Childe, please!"

Taking a deep breath, Cao Pi didn't want to entangle with Sima Yi anymore.

What the hell is going on, you will find out when you go in, and it is useless to ask him.

After tidying up his clothes a little, Cao Pi's face moved slightly and stepped into the main hall.

Walking into the hall, Cao Pi saw at a glance sitting on the seat belonging to him King Wei.

This position is not different from the position of the emperor.

Even, if you want to sit in the position of emperor, it only takes a few steps.

At this moment, Cao Cao is sitting facing the emperor.

His gaze stayed on the seat that belonged to the emperor.

Cao Pi's footsteps lifted lightly, reducing the sound of landing to a minimum.

I was afraid that my range of movements would be too large and disturb Cao Cao.

"It's coming," Cao Cao said softly.

His voice was very calm, and even in this empty hall, it did not seem very abrupt.

"Yes, Father! The child is coming! Cao Pi bent down and bowed deeply.

He was extraordinarily respectful, and not just because of his current status.

What's more, Cao Cao always seems to be able to give him a sense of oppression.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get rid of this feeling.

"Come!" Cao Cao spoke again and beckoned to Cao Pi.

Without any hesitation, Cao Pi half-bent over, walked briskly in small steps, and quickly came to Cao Cao's side.

"Want to sit here?"

After Cao Pi came to his side, Cao Cao pointed to the emperor's position and spoke lightly.

This sudden question shocked Cao Pi.

He didn't understand what Cao Cao meant, you know, that's the position where the emperor can sit.

His eyes rolled, and Cao Pi's inner thoughts were turning, thinking about how to answer this question, which would be more appropriate.

"No... Don't want to... No... The kid didn't... Didn't think about it! ”

Listening to Cao Pi's incomparable words, Cao Cao was a little disappointed.

He knows Cao Pi's character very well, and under any circumstances, he will not reveal his true thoughts.

In other words, the city is very deep!

Such a character is indeed very suitable for being the master.

That's why Cao Cao chose him as his successor.

It's just that he doesn't like such a character, and it can be said that he hates it.

Even if he is such a person, the difference is that Cao Cao likes to be real.

"You know what? A lot of people are looking forward to me sitting in this position! ”

Cao Cao didn't bother to expose his excuses, and still set his eyes on the seat in front of him.

"The child knows, in fact, the child also hopes that his father can do this!"

"Then do you know why I didn't sit?"

"I don't know!"

"Hehe..." Cao Cao smiled and stretched out his hand to pull Cao Pi over.

"Fame and power, only power is real!

As long as you have a firm grip on power, is there such a name, and what? ”

"The child understands!" Cao Pi's heart was beating wildly, and he had a bad feeling.

Because, he felt an extremely strong murderous aura from Cao Cao's body!

"Nope! You don't understand! ”

Cao Cao let go of Cao Pi and put his hand on the other party's shoulder.

Supporting his shoulders with his hands, Cao Cao stood up with a slight effort.

"I asked you to come today, just to let you understand!"

As he spoke, Cao Cao looked outside the door of the main hall.

"Sima Yi!"

After Cao Pi walked into the hall, Sima Yi, who continued to kneel at the door of the main hall, heard Cao Cao's call.

He got up suddenly, supported his hat with his hand, which was a little crooked because he was in too much of a hurry, and then stepped into the main hall.

"King Wei!" Sima Yi bowed deeply.

"Call those people in!"

"No!"

Sima Yi turned around and walked out, and a moment later, many officials who had been standing at the gate of the palace were brought in.

There was no one to take the lead, and no one to command, but when the people came in, they naturally divided themselves into two columns, according to the previous rules.

"Meet King Wei!" After everyone stood still, they said respectfully to Cao Cao.

"You are all old ministers of the Han Dynasty, among you, those who have followed the emperor here from Chang'an, stand up!"

Cao Cao's voice was calm, and a smile appeared on his face.

To outsiders, Cao Cao seemed to be a gentle old man at this time.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what Cao Cao was going to do.

However, listening to the meaning of his words, it should be some reward for the old minister.

At least, that's what they themselves think.

As a result, dozens of people stood aside at great speed.

Seeing this scene, Sima Yi and Cao Pi's hearts jumped...
