Chapter 17: The Mystery of Guessing
Hua Wenxuan came to the side hall of the backyard, Cao Pi was sitting in front of the bookcase, Guo Jia stood aside, and as soon as the two saw Hua Wenxuan walk in, they stopped talking, and only stared at Hua Wenxuan with their eyes.
After Qin Lang brought Hua Wenxuan in, he turned around and went out with a nod, standing in front of the porch outside the door.
Hua Wenxuan vaguely felt a little pressure, and he gently pinched the iron whip hidden in his waist with his hand to calm his panicked mood.
"Hua Wenxuan has seen Zihuan Gongzi!" Hua Wenxuan arched his hand and gestured to Guo Jia again, Guo Jia's face had an intriguing expression, which made this person even more scheming.
Cao Pi raised his hand lightly, and was about to talk, but Guo Jia stepped forward and said first: "Feng Xiaojiu has heard the name of Wenxuan Gongzi, and I can see it today, and it is really a talent!" Guo Jia's tone was low and profound, making people sound a little cold, "Under the hall, Prince Wenxuan has succeeded to the title, knowing that his words have hurt many Cao family nobles, aren't you afraid that they will embarrass you in the future?" ”
Hua Wenxuan pondered for a moment, how should this be answered? Referring to historical facts, Cao Pi is indeed the successor to the unification in the future, but now Cao Cao died suddenly, this Cao Pi and Cao Zhi are both underage, it is difficult for anyone to say which of the two is superior or inferior, Guo Jia's words, is he questioning whether I am standing in line at will?
While pondering, Cao Pi suddenly spoke, "Zihuan heard the words in the hall, but he was very happy in his heart! Now it is rumored that General Zhang Xiu was beheaded by me in the hall, and I am really afraid that Prince Wenxuan will blame me for breaking my promise, and I will be embarrassed in public! ”
No way! Don't you think I don't remember? Let me lose my trust in the world, lose my trust in Jia Xu, his vicious eyes in the hall made Lao Tzu creepy, if it weren't for your noble status and many powerful people now, I should have drawn a whip and taught Cao Cao a good lesson for you, a disobedient son.
Hua Wenxuan arched his hand in embarrassment, but said no more, Cao Pi's expectant smile slowly disappeared, he stood up, hurriedly walked to Hua Wenxuan's side, and grabbed Hua Wenxuan's arched hands,
"Brother Wenxuan still seems to have a grudge against Zihuan! I think that Cao Pi has been galloping on the battlefield with my father since he was a child, and he has been with him for many years, An Neng doesn't know how to comfort the world with sincerity, but the matter of General Zhang Xiu has nothing to do with Zihuan! ”
Cao Pi's eager eyes looked directly at Hua Wenxuan with anticipation, and the innocence on his face made this usually arrogant and steady young man finally show a trace of panic that matched his age.
Hua Wenxuan licked his lips, could it be that Zhang Xiu's death really had nothing to do with Cao Pi?
Cao Pi saw a trace of hesitation flashing in Hua Wenxuan's eyes, "That day, I summoned General Zhang Xiu, who had just entered Xudu, in the Prime Minister's Mansion, to persuade him. After all, General Zhang Xiu has hundreds of Western Liang elite riders, Hebei Yuan Shao will go south in a few days, and the Northwest Ma clan has monopolized the good horses of the Western Regions for a long time, and these hundreds of elite riders are the best choice to fill the tiger and leopard cavalry! Cao Pi looked at Guo Jia on the side, and Guo Jia nodded lightly.
"I don't want General Zhang Xiu to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion, Uncle Zilian thought that Brother Ang was avenging him, and took his relatives with the soldiers to cut him down in the courtyard, I couldn't stop Feng Xiao, and Uncle Zilian has always been on good terms with me, and the guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion let him go, and even spread my order, this is really ......."
"Wenxuan Gongzi think about it quietly!" Guo Jia interjected: "Zihuan Gongzi and Zijian Gongzi are still young, and the military and political power is now in the hands of a clan, whether it is a tool or a plan, it is far inferior to Meng Degong. ”
It's also said that the nine sons of the dragon are different, but Cao Pi is not stupid enough to do such a stupid thing, right? But then again, the Cao family dared to kill people in public in the Prime Minister's Mansion and disregarded the young master's face, and the humiliation in Cao Pi's heart was even more difficult to heal. What's more, the clan relatives dared to use swords and soldiers in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and it can be seen that Cao Cao's death also made these relatives who were usually kind and kind to show their original vulgar colors.
Guo Jia saw that Hua Wenxuan was still silent, took a deep breath secretly, and rolled his eyes a few times,
"Now there are dark waves in this Xu Capital City, on the surface, the two sons of the Cao family are fighting, but in fact, it is the clan relatives left by the Cao Gong and the Shi clan confronting each other. The elder is the foundation of the foundation, but the Xungui of the Cao family used Cao Gong's preference for Zijian Gongzi as the reason, and forced Zijian Gongzi to compete with Zihuan Gongzi, just because Zihuan Gongzi has been in the army for many years and has been trained since childhood, so he will not listen to them and believe them, and feel that Zijian Gongzi has a better grasp! Guo Jia sighed heavily, "Moreover, I vaguely feel that today's things are not as simple as they seem. The saint has lived in the deep palace for many years, and the major national affairs have been in the hands of Cao Gong, and today he suddenly left the palace and interfered in the internal affairs of the Cao family in the prime minister's house. I watched his expression in the hall without waves, I must have known it a long time ago, so it seems that the emperor's trip is a plot by someone! ”
Guo Jia's words are exactly what Zhonghua Wenxuan is worried about, this Guo Fengxiao is really a genius in the world!
Hua Wenxuan cast an admiring look at Guo Jia, "Wenxuan also feels like this, Xungui and Zihuan Gongzi are personal grudges, even if Zijian Gongzi inherits the title in the future, Zihuan Gongzi still does not lose his honor." Hua Wenxuan paused and looked at Cao Pi, "But if the person who plotted this time succeeds, I'm afraid that Zihuan Gongzi will not be able to become a rich man in the future!" ”
A trace of surprise flashed on Cao Pi's face, and he muttered, "Ling Jun and my father have known each other for many years, why did they come to this? ”
Hua Wenxuan looked at Cao Pi, "If you want to support the Han Dynasty, fame and military strength are indispensable, except for Meng Degong, there are nothing more than Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao's disciples, and the rest such as Liu Bei, Tao Qian, Sun Ce and others, either in a corner of peace, or lack of soldiers and food, Xun Yu is a family in Yingchuan, and he will lose all the plates if he accidentally loses, and Prime Minister Cao Cheng is indeed his best choice!" Merely! ”
Hua Wenxuan glanced at Cao Pi and hesitated slightly, but if Cao Cao was still in such a state of mind, it would be unbearable to break it, and now Cao Pi is still a child, so he shouldn't take it to heart, right?
"It's just that after Prime Minister Cao Cheng welcomed the emperor to Xudu, there were many disobedient actions, maybe Xun Yu had already rebelled, but he was just suffering from the military and political power for Cao Gong! Now that Prime Minister Cao Cheng has died violently, and Xungui is not on good terms with Zihuan Gongzi, will Xun Yu take this opportunity to split the Cao family's forces, and use you and Zijian to compete for the throne to strengthen the imperial power and rejuvenate the Han family? ”
Cao Pi's brows slowly wrinkled together with Hua Wenxuan's words, "If Ling Jun is like this, isn't my Cao family in danger?" ”
Guo Jia said silently: "Wen Ruo is a scholar, taking advantage of the power of Cao Gong to be the head of Hanchen, and now General Xiahou and others are not on good terms with their sons, but in the final analysis, it is just a dispute between the princes, and the military power has not been left behind by others, even if Yu Ban and other generals listen to Yu Xunyu's orders, there are only less than 1,000 palace guards, and they are not enough to fear!" ”
Cao Pi nodded lightly and looked at Hua Wenxuan, "Today, the emperor ordered me and Zijian to lead troops to attack Yuan Shu respectively, what does Gongzi Wenxuan think?" ”
Hua Wenxuan pondered for a while, if Cao Cao did not die, Yuan Shu would definitely be trapped by Liu Bei in Shouchun this time and die of illness in Jiangting, but now, it is really difficult to say.
"If it is based on military and political affairs alone, Yuan Shu has no power to parry." Hua Wenxuan touched his chin, "But this time, Your Majesty wants to let the two sons try their hands, not only to win a big victory, but also to win beautifully, in order to suppress those who are not convinced, and to suppress those who are ready to move!" ”
"Well said!" Guo Jia couldn't help but shout, "Gongzi Wenxuan not only predicts this event, but also has insight into the subconscious, which can be described as a strange person!" ”
Hua Wenxuan was taken aback by Guo Jia, and a cold sweat broke out, and he couldn't see that Guo Jia's sudden throat was really scary!
Cao Pi also smiled, but his face darkened again, and asked:
"Then why did Wen Xuan rest in Xun Lingjun's mansion yesterday?"
Guo Jia and Hua Wenxuan were both stunned, and Hua Wenxuan chuckled even more in his heart, this Cao Pi's face is wrong?
