The mighty army of 200,000 was like a long snake, slowly moving forward on the winding Jingbei Road, and Cao Cao sat on the huge yellow chariot in the middle of the array. When Liu Xie ordered Cao Cao to be crowned the king of Wei, he added nine tins to him, rewarded the Son of Heaven with a guard of honor, a chariot, and even allowed to wear the crown of the Son of Heaven in the country.

Therefore, Cao Cao's honor guard is completely made according to the convoy of the Son of Heaven, and the 200,000 troops in front and behind are marching slowly, but the nearly 1,000 honor guards in the middle are still beating gongs and drums, so not majestic! The people of the Quartet listened to it and bowed one after another, and even the mountain people who were twenty miles away knelt down and met the "Son of Heaven" divine soldiers.

Suddenly, I saw a horse flying from the south, shouting urgently, bypassing 100,000 elites, and heading straight for Cao Cao's guard of honor; Cao Cao ordered the whole army to stop, let the official leading the horse control the reins, and slowly walked out of the chariot.

"King Wei, Pioneer Urgent!"

On the chariot were Cheng Yu and Xun You, and Guo Jia, Man Zhong and other bureaucrats were left in Beijing by Cao Cao to deal with political affairs. Without Xun Yu, Cao Cao could only let these two act as his own agents.

Cao Cao motioned to Xun You to take the report, and after taking a closer look, he was furious and angry! scolded: "Huang Xu'er acted recklessly, how can he be the leader of the tiger and leopard cavalry? Let's go! Xun You, you immediately draft a decree to restore Cao Xiu and Cao Chun's positions, and remove Cao Zhang's position! …… In addition, Xun Gang must not be reckless, I will try the case in person! If you move a hair of my yellow beard, ask him! ”

Cheng Yu and Xun You looked at each other, both puzzled, but when they saw Xun You, they asked, "King Wei, but what happened to the vanguard army?" ”

Cao Cao's anger did not abate, and he directly threw the bamboo slips on the ground and picked up a lot of dust; After Xun You, he leaned over and picked up the bamboo slips and observed them with Cheng Yu, and after a while, they were all shocked and said, "The third prince is actually ...... Attacking your own city is no different from a rebellion! If it were on someone else, I'm afraid it would have been ...... long ago."

Halfway through the words, Xun You didn't dare to speak, after all, if he said it all, it would mean that Cao Cao would protect Cao Zhang...... The monarch has always wanted to establish a fair and selfless image for himself, but now Cao Cao said that he would try it himself and not allow Xun Gang to move, doesn't it show that he has selfish intentions?

Cao Cao is selfish, but it would be miserable if he pointed it out himself!

Cheng Yu didn't speak for a long time, not that he was afraid that his words would affect Cao Cao or his own life, but that Cao Cao was no longer young, although he was still brave, but sooner or later he would die, so the matter of his successor was quite important, especially after Cao Cao became the king of Wei.

He is naturally inclined to Cao Pi, the middle general of the facial features, after all, he is the oldest, and he has learned that people are good at scheming, and there is no more suitable candidate than him. It's just that Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang are not convinced, and there is Cao Cao's favorite son Cao Chong.

If he took the opportunity to kill Cao Zhang, then Cao Pi would have one less opponent on the way forward.

"King Wei, ...... minister"

Before Cheng Yu could say his plan, he heard a voice suddenly come from the yellow chariot: "Father! Why is my father angry? ”

Cheng Yu was shocked when he heard this, why did King Wei bring him too? Why don't these staff members know?

Cao Chong walked out of the chariot in a gorgeous dress, now he is ten years old, although he has not yet reached the crown, but Cao Cao can't wait to give his abbot a coming-of-age ceremony, and give him the word Cangshu.

"This is a political matter, Chong'er, don't interfere!"

Cao Cao said a word, and wanted to get in the car and continue to force it, but Cao Chong suddenly knelt down and said, "Father! The three things are both state affairs and family affairs; Although Erchen didn't know what mistakes the third brother had made, couldn't Erchen even do his duty as a younger brother to help his brother? (There should also be a reference to the scriptures here, but the author doesn't know what to use, so he can only put a funny)"

“…… Ziwen was drunk and confused for a while, and actually attacked his own city; And who is it better to attack than to fight places that are not under my direct jurisdiction? Besides, it is not clear whether Xun Gang is plotting rebellion, so Ziwen is charged with rebellion! Chong'er, you don't have to say more, this matter is the father's own plan. ”

Cao Cao knew that he couldn't give Cao Chong a clear statement that he wanted to save Cao Zhang, after all, the prince broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people, if he covered it up himself, it would be to despise the law, who would believe the law in the future?

Who knew that Cao Chong had already understood this truth, he still couldn't afford it, knelt on the ground and said: "Father, please hand over this case to Erchen, Erchen will not only give justice to the law, but also save his third brother!" ”

Cao Cao has always loved his smartest son, and knows that he has all kinds of wonderful ideas, which is why he chose Xun Gang as his teacher, because the two of them are very similar. It's just that today's things can't be the same as those things that can be arbitrarily decided in the past, can Cao Chong be left alone?

But Cao Cao intends to give up the throne to Cao Chong after a hundred years, which is better than ......

"Gongda, you take Cangshu and the three thousand horsemen to Jiangling first, and this matter is left to the two of you, if it is handled properly before Gu arrives, it is best to deal with it; If you can't handle it well, you have a plan! ”

"Yes!"

Xun You received the order, bowed Xie and left with Cao Chong, only led 3,000 soldiers and horses, and advanced rapidly towards Jiangling. Cao Cao was still some distance away from Jiangling, and he could reach it in a day by horse, while Cao Cao's army would take five days, which was equivalent to four days for them to deal with the case.

After the two left, Cao Cao turned his head to look at Cheng Yu with a strange face, and asked suspiciously: "Zhongde, what's wrong?" ”

Cheng Yu came back to his senses and said hesitantly: "No...... It's nothing. ”

"Did you just want to say something to Lone, but you were interrupted by Chong'er?"

"This ...... It's not an important thing, it's just that encountering such a change before the crusade against Sun Ce is really a bit demoralizing......"

Cao Cao laughed when he heard this, and then said: "Zhongde, don't laugh, I was in trouble in Yanzhou back then, but you gave me a bunch of dried human flesh to tide over the difficulties, why did you become unfounded today?" ”

Cheng Yu smiled and said that he didn't dare.

Just now he discovered that the biggest enemy of the turf was not Cao Zhang, but Cao Chong; If you take this opportunity to clean up Cao Zhang, although it paves the way for Cao Pi, it also suppresses Cao Chong; But just now Cao Cao obviously wanted Cao Chong to exercise, how could he interfere with it?

Cheng Yu doesn't care about the so-called family, although he loves his mother very much, but he doesn't have the slightest feeling for brotherly feelings; If their brothers fight, it has nothing to do with him, just don't spoil the good fortune of King Wei.

"Cao Chong Cao Chong...... You can save the lives of domestic slaves, this is a major military and political event, I'm afraid you are still a little tender! ”
