Two tables! When he left Handdu and returned to Jiangdong, the elder of Longgang Temple in Sagashan brought a letter to his junior brother Yan Fatai. In the first few days when Chen Cao returned to Jiankang, he was busy with high-ranking officials and celebrities, running between Wuyi Alleys in Hengtang. It wasn't until September 19 that I had free time, and invited Mrs. Lu's wife, Zhang Wenjun and Lu Weirui, to go to Waguan Temple to rejoice

Because the last time Lu Weirui went to Xinting without a private guard, the chestnut was almost broken by Lu Kan's arm, so this time when he went to the Waguan Temple outside Qingxi Gate, there were some rejuvenating teachers, forty private soldiers, and forty government servants. The rest of the maids and maids are endless, the carriages and horses fill the road, the mighty and mighty, and the grandeur of the gate valve of the Lu family of Wujun is fully revealed.

Chen Caozhi and Ran Sheng and others have first gone to Waguan Temple, and talked with the Fa Tai, the Fa Tai read the letter of the senior brother Fa Ya, thinking about the past, feeling a lot, between the words, the monk came to report that Mrs. Lu Shangshu came to the incense to worship the Buddha, and the Fa Tai knew that the Lu girl came to the Buddhist temple to meet Chen Caozhi again, and said with a smile: "The Empress Dowager Chongde read the Lu girl's Chen Qing table that day. was greatly moved, saying that the Buddha protects the knot, and Chen Tanyue will definitely be able to tie the knot with the Lu girl. ”

Chen Caozhi and Yan Fatai went out of the palace to greet each other, and Mrs. Lu Zhang Wenjun also brought her beloved son Lu Daofu this time, and this Lu Daofu and Waguan Temple were not in this Waguan Temple Daxiong Treasure Hall last year. Chen Caozhi gave Mrs. Lu a dietary prescription and asked Lu Na to nourish her body, which led to Lu Daofu, and Mrs. Lu promised Lu Daofu a longevity lamp in front of the Buddha this time. 100,000 yuan of sesame oil every year

Chen Caozhi looked at Lu Weirui, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Chestnut looked at Chen Cao's words: "Chen Langjun, have you ever heard of rumors about Lu La and others?" ”

Chen Caozhi asked, "What do you say?" ”

Chestnut told the court scandal again, and said: "In the past few days, the palace has sent a lot of guards to strictly investigate this matter. Lu La's Heavenly Master Dao followers also helped track down the rumor spreaders and arrested many people. ”

Chen Caozhi sneered in his heart and nodded, "I know." ”

When Chen Caozhi accompanied Mrs. Lu Zhang Wenjun and Wei Rui to worship the Buddha in the Medicine Master Hall, he suddenly saw a Gu Mansion steward leading a Wu and hurriedly came. Huan Zhongjun asked Chen Xima to go to Fuzhong immediately to meet him. ”

Huan Zhongjun is Huan Wen's fourth brother Huan Mi. Ranking among the leaders of the three ranks, commanding the guards inside and outside the palace, Chen Caozhi said: "I went to visit this Huan Mi two days ago, and I don't have anything to say, it is rumored that Huan Mi and his brother Huan Wen are not very harmonious, but they have a good relationship with Huan Xi and Huan Ji's two nephews, why is Huan Mi so anxious to find me?" ”

Mrs. Lu Zhang Wenjun said: "If you have something to do, go back first, I and Wei Rui will burn incense again and pay tribute for a while." ”

Chen Cao ordered Na Wu to wait outside the hall, but asked Wei Rui quietly: "When will you come to see me again in the Shuanglang Building of the East Garden?" ”

Lu Weirui's clear eyes blinked, and suddenly woke up, her pretty face suddenly turned red behind her ears, and she shook her head and said, "Don't come." After a pause, he whispered, "I'm just waiting for you to marry me." ”

Chen Caozhi rarely didn't have to think about it once, but he was rejected, quite ashamed, Wei Rui committed to him in the Shuanglang Building of the East Garden that day, in fact, it was a kind of determination not to marry him, because at that time Wei Rui had already discovered the plot of his uncle and brother to send her to the palace

Seeing Chen Caozhi's embarrassment, Lu Weirui softened her heart and said softly: "When Ding's prostitute sister-in-law arrives in Jiankang, I will come to Dongyuan to meet her." In this way, quietly replace Chen Caozhi's original intention and not embarrass Chen Caozhi. Lu Weirui is really a very smart woman.

Chen Caozhi took Ran Sheng and several people to Huan Mi Mansion, Huan Mi came out to greet him, but one of the people next to him was Huan Wen's eldest son Huan Xi, and Chen Cao understood when he saw Huan Xi. Huan Wen finally made a decision to establish Huan Xi as the son.

In the past, Huan Xi was quite cold to Chen Caozhi. But this time it was much more enthusiastic, and Huan Xi had to be secretly instructed by his father Huan Wen. To get along well with Chen Caozhi, Chen Caozhi will do his best to assist him, and this time he is officially established as the son. Chen Caozhi also made a big move. It is the power of Chen Cao to establish a long line, not a virtuous one. This made Huan Xi quite grateful to Chen Caozhi, although he still had inexplicable jealousy of Chen Caozhi in his heart, but at least on the surface, he was kind and full of spring breeze.

Huan Wen's seal has been sent to the Taicheng Situ Office, just waiting for the edict to be issued, Huan Xi is Long Kang, the heir of the Huan family.

Huan Mi is quite dissatisfied with the ambition of his brother Huan Wen, and disagrees with Chen Caozhi's general to assist Huan Xi to rebuild the Beifu Army, he thinks that the original Beifu Army has been abandoned for more than ten years, and the internal relationship is complicated, where does Huan Xi have the ability to gain a firm foothold in Jingkou, where the Xi clan and Geng's forces are entrenched, and Chen Caozhi, who is only twenty years old, comes from a humble background, although he is very famous, and he is entangled with the two major scholars in the north and south, but leading the troops is not competent, Xie Wanshi is a lesson from the past, so Huan Mi thinks that his brother Huan Wen's move is a mistake and difficult to succeed.

Huan Xi invited Chen Caozhi to have a long talk in private, and then went to visit Xi together, Huan Xi said: "Jiajun will take a boat to Yangzhou in the near future to supervise the construction of Guangling City, and he may pass through Jiankang on the return trip." ”

Xi and Chen Cao understood that the day Huan Wen entered Jiankang would be the time to abolish the emperor.

Xi Dao: "Today's Taiji Hall West Hall is heavy" Pinshang Shuchenglang! Affair. The emperor resolutely did not allow it, Langya Gui strongly admonished, but no, out of the Langya King did not need to get the emperor's permission to promote the sub-weight, but since the emperor clearly objected, as the prime minister, it was not good for the king of Langya to confront the emperor in person, and this discussion was over

Emperor Sima Yi originally wanted to remove Chen Caozhi from the post of prince washing horses, but King Langya, Shang Shufu and others all objected, and Emperor Sima Yi was just right, but he didn't expect that Chen Caozhi could not be removed from the official now, but Chen Caozhi wanted to be promoted, which was really unbearable. Of course the emperor wants to be mighty!

In this regard, Chen Caozhi was indifferent.

Huan Xi said: "Such a faint king, even the prince can't be sure whether he is his own child, how to rule the group."

Xi was the mastermind who arranged for people to spread rumors, but at this time, he didn't answer Huan Xi's words and just smiled, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.

In the evening of the next day, Sima Yu, the king of Langya, invited Chen Caozhi to the banquet in order to comfort Chen Caozhi. Promised to be promoted next year. Chen Caozhi said: "The king doesn't have to be too gracious to Caozhi, otherwise it will not be good to serve the king."

Sima Yu understood what Chen Caozhi meant. I was very relieved and said: "Loyalty, the blessing of the country." The king will persuade His Majesty to reuse it.

Chen Caozhi hurriedly said: "The king must not talk to the emperor about what he is planning, the emperor has just ascended to the throne, he does not know that the situation is sinister, and he favors Lu Shu and Zhu Lingbao, so he really can't make a big deal with it."

Sima Yu nodded and said, "That's right." The emperor really doesn't know what rumors he has heard recently.

Chen Caozhi said: "I have heard a little

Sima Yu, the king of Langya, had a shameful face, was silent for a long time, and said, "Could this rumor be spread by Xianbei people?" As soon as the Huangfu Zhenwang left Jiankang, this rumor came out. ”

This is an eventful year in the first year of Taihe. He Jian of Qin, the royal family of Xianbei Murong, and the emperor Sima Yi of Jiangdong were all plagued by rumors: He Jian, the lord of Qin, was not the son of Hexiong, but he was born to his mother and the temple of Ximen Leopard Temple; Murong Ping, the king of Shangyong of Yan Kingdom, and Murong Chui, the king of Wu, are jealous of the Hun clan for the sake of the queen mother; The Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty, Sima Yi, and the Heavenly Master Dao Demon practiced the Male and Female Convergence Technique in the palace, and the harem concubines all became the furnace of supplementation, and the prince was not born to the emperor

Rumors often reveal the truth!

Sima Yu, the king of Langya, asked: "How do you think we can dispel the bad influence of this rumor?"

Chen Caozhi said: "The rumors stop at the wise, the king doesn't have to worry too much, but the reaction in the palace is excessive, these days the guards are out, and the believers of Lukan are indiscriminately arresting the people in the city, so isn't it getting bigger and bigger, the mouth of the people is more important than the Sichuan, but it can not be blocked, the emperor does not stay away from the slanderers to eliminate criticism, but he treats the people like this." I don't know what to do

Sima Yu, the king of Langya, thought deeply and said: "This king will enter the palace tomorrow and ask the emperor to expel Lu Qiong, Zhu Lingbao and others

Chen Cao said in his heart, with the stupid temperament of Emperor Sima Yi, he would not listen to the advice of King Langya, and Emperor Sima Yi would definitely make great strides towards his established destiny

As Chen Cao expected, the next morning in the Taicheng-style Qiandian, Emperor Sima Yu heard that King Langya was going to expel Lu Mei and others, he was angry and angry, and said: "When this rumor swarms. If Lian expels Lu Dao, wouldn't it be a rumor and be laughed at by the world! He said hatefully: "The United will find out the person who spreads the rumors." Break it to pieces! ”

Sima Yu, the king of Langya, admonished bitterly, where was the emperor willing to listen, so he had to resign, went to the secret pavilion of Taicheng, and saw Shang: "King, the big thing is not good!" ”

Sima Yu was taken aback and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Wang Biao's way: "Huan Da Sima led the boat to master 10,000 people, from Gu Xiao down the river, to Jiankang. ”

Sima Yu was shocked. His voice trembled: "He, he, what does Huan Da Sima want?"

Wang Biaozhi was calm. said: "Don't panic, the prince of Huan Da Sima Shi Huan Xi entered the capital from his aunt the day before yesterday, and he can be summoned to ask."

Sima Yu urgently summoned Yuzhou to govern the state to engage in Huan Xi's deliberations in Taicheng, and when he asked Fang Fang, he knew that Huan Wen was going to Yangzhou to supervise the construction of Guangling City. Sima Yu breathed a sigh of relief, but Wang Biaozhi raised his eyebrows and felt inappropriate. Huan Wen led 10,000 people to Yangzhou, but did not inform the court in advance, which was obviously putting pressure on Jiankang.

In the afternoon of this day, when Chen Caozhi went to visit Xie Daoyun in Wuyi Lane, he was taken by Xie Shao to see Xie An.

Xie An is the first wise man of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, Chen Caozhi wanted to say this to Xie An a few days ago, Chen Caozhi wanted to make a difference in the court, wanted to rebuild the Beifu soldiers, without Xie An's support is not good, so he said: "Cao Zhi is trying to discuss this matter with An Shigong" When Huan Wen wanted to do Yi, Huo Zhi's move, and the abolition of the emperor and the establishment of the king of Langya as the king, he came to Xie An one by one.
