Chapter 1062 The decisive battle of the Kanto group of dragons without a leader
Before the ruins of Shangyang Palace, in a simple and brand-new palace city, queues of imperial forest troops came out in all directions, and the entire palace city was surrounded by overlaps, even the concubines such as Queen Ding of the harem could not enter the front hall for half a minute.
This oppressive atmosphere made the courtiers of the Great Wei Dynasty a little flustered.
"Looking at the situation, something big is happening in this palace!"
"Could it be that Your Majesty is really critically ill?"
"Impossible, when I met Your Majesty a few times ago, Your Majesty was full of energy, how could it be that he would fall ill in just a few days!"
"If it weren't for the accident, how could this Miyagi be under martial law!"
The courtiers gathered on the court, one by one panicked, but His Majesty had no will, and no one could see His Majesty, so they could only wait here.
"Prime Minister, now that the news has all come, there will be chaos in the court, and Your Majesty will not be able to show up, then the central court will also be leaderless, if this continues, it will be difficult for us to stabilize people's hearts, once the courtiers are in turmoil, there will inevitably be chaos in the world!"
In the palace, Xun Yu raised his head, looked at Prime Minister Xun Yu, and said proposively: "Are we summoning His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to stabilize the change of the dynasty, and the way is the way!" ”
"Your Majesty is sober, this is also the intention, he also wants to summon His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back to the court, in order to stabilize the ministers of the court, in order to determine the hearts of the people in the world, but my thoughts are just the opposite, it is this critical moment, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must not come back!"
As the so-called talent is shown in times of crisis, Xun Yu at this time did not live up to Cao Cao's expectations, and deserved the name of Wang Zuozhicai, he was calm and calm, without the slightest panic, and said in a deep voice: "Once His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returns to Luoyang, it will not only confirm the news of His Majesty's poor health, but also give them an illusion that His Majesty is about to die." To summon His Royal Highness the Crown Prince back to the dynasty to pass on the throne, once this situation occurs, Great Wei will be completely chaotic, which we absolutely cannot afford, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cannot move! ”
Cao Cao is the heaven of Great Wei, and Cao Cao is still there as long as one day. Whether it is a subordinate or a wealthy family, they dare not act rashly.
But once the news of Cao Cao's resignation was confirmed.
Many forces in the entire Great Wei will not be able to suppress it, and when the time comes, the world will really be in chaos, and then let the Eastern Wu take the opportunity to return to the top, and it will definitely be on the verge of destroying the dynasty.
"Then how do we stabilize the dynasty and calm our minds!"
Xun Yu thought about it, what Xun Yu said made sense, but he was still not stable and comprehensive enough for Xun Yu. However, it is not difficult for the crown prince Cao Ang to be recalled, so the dragons in the court and the central government are leaderless, and there will be chaos, he said with some worry: "Now everyone up and down the city of Luoyang knows that something has happened to Your Majesty, and Your Majesty has not been able to come forward for a long time, which has already made them guess, at this time, I am afraid that we do not have this identity to preside over the overall situation!" ”
"One person can!"
Xun Yu narrowed his eyes. A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth: "As long as he stands up, then we will assist." Whoever Zhang Lu leads his troops from the north will inevitably stabilize those hearts that are about to move! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a burly young man, with a cold and murderous aura, strode out of the back hall, his eyes full of resentment. glared at Xun Yu and asked angrily: "Prime Minister, who is it that wants to hurt my father?" ”
"The Third Prince?"
Xun Yu suddenly understood Xun Yu's idea.
"Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, now is not the time to pursue this!"
Xun Yu heard this. With an indifferent expression, he walked up and said: "Your Majesty is in a coma, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now on the front line in the decisive battle of Yuzhou in Eastern Wu, and he can't return suddenly, so I need you to come forward and stabilize the dynasty for the sake of Great Wei!" ”
"What does this prince need to do, the prime minister said bluntly!"
Hearing this, Cao Zhang took a deep breath, surrendered the anger in his heart, arched his hands, and said loudly.
Although he is young, he is from the Cao Wei royal family and knows the importance of it.
At this time, stabilizing Dawei is more important than investigating who is the murderer of Cao Cao.
"I need the three princes to come forward and use His Majesty's holy decree to supervise the country and the world!" Xun Yu stared at Cao Zhang's face, and said categorically.
"Prison Country?"
Cao Chang was taken aback when he heard Xun Yu's words, and hurriedly said, "Isn't this the prince qualified to do it?" I'm just a little prince, I haven't left the palace yet, what can I do, the Great Wei of the Prison Country? ”
"The three princes, at this time, at that time, now His Majesty is in a coma and cannot go to the court, and the prince is not in Luoyang, but also to stabilize the morale of the front-line army, do not move without permission, in the entire Luoyang City, only the three princes can take on the big responsibility!"
Xun Yu sighed and said faintly.
"Even if the crown prince brother is no longer there, isn't there still a second emperor brother?" Cao Zhangdao.
"Third prince, do you know, His Royal Highness the Second Prince because of the defeat of Youzhou, cut off the back road of our army, which made His Majesty angry, and now he actually uses his own army to protect himself, cut the heart of Jizhou, he led an army of 100,000 to block my Great Wei Fierce General to go south, Your Majesty has already been angry, and ordered the ghost pawns to be captured and returned to Luoyang, if there is resistance, kill him!"
Xun You said hatefully: "He is definitely not a person who is in prison!" ”
"What?" Cao Zhang was taken aback: "How can the second emperor brother be like this?" ”
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince, if you want to stabilize the court situation now, only you can do it, but this matter violates the rules of the court, and if you are not careful, you will definitely be crushed!" Xun Yu looked at him and used the agitation method: "Are you afraid?" ”
"Prime Minister, this prince is not a person who cowers, now that Great Wei is in danger, I, as the prince of Great Wei, am willing to go to the soup for the safety of Great Wei, and I will not hesitate to do anything!"
Cao Zhang thought for a while, and said loudly: "But you can think clearly, I am only the third son of my father, and the name of the prison country is not justified, not to mention whether I have the ability to stabilize people's hearts, even if I pass this level, once the prison country is supervised, it will be equivalent to the implementation of the name of the prince, and it will inevitably conflict with His Royal Highness the prince in the future, and when the prince brother returns, the first person must bear the brunt of it!" ”
"His Royal Highness the Third Prince, Xun Yu is dedicated to the Great Wei, and he asks himself if he is worthy of His Majesty and the conscience of heaven and earth, so I have nothing to fear, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has my head in the future, I don't care!"
Xun Yu's expression was calm, his eyes were firm, and he said word by word, and he said very persistently: "I only care about the current Ruoyang, and now I will also stabilize the Great Wei Dynasty for you." Dawei must not be messed up, and Xun Yu is willing to take on all other responsibilities! ”
"Since the prime minister has such a loyal and courageous heart, I, Cao Zhang, have no intention of being afraid of gossip!"
Cao Zhang's back was straight, and a sense of pride bloomed on his body. His eyes burst with a touch of resoluteness: "What should Cao Zhang do, please ask the prime minister to command!" ”
"Now that Your Majesty is in a coma, you are carrying out Your Majesty's holy decree and supervising the country!"
Xun Yu's eyes narrowed, his fists clenched, and he said in a low voice: "Whether you can stabilize the dynasty or not, it depends on tomorrow's early dynasty, as long as you can stabilize the courtiers tomorrow, you can temporarily stabilize people's hearts!" ”
Following.
Above the early dynasty. Hundreds of civil and military officials gathered in the palace, but now they are absent-minded, their eyes are all looking at the dragon chair on the stage, Cao Cao's figure is no more, the spiritual pillar of Great Wei is no more, they are naturally a personal panic, unable to feel at ease.
"The holy decree has arrived, and the secretaries have received the decree!"
At this time. Suddenly, a sharp voice sounded, and then the ministers looked at Cao Leng, the first eunuch beside Cao Cao, and walked onto the dragon platform. Raise a decree in both hands.
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
The ministers hurriedly leaned down.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, I am unwell today, I need time to recuperate, the ministers must not be disturbed, and now the dynasty is unstable. The people's hearts were in turmoil, and Cao Zhang, the third prince of the only one, had both ability and political integrity, Yunwen and Yunwu, and was crowned King Peng. Specially appointed to supervise the country in the world, admire this!! ”
Under the guidance of Xun Yu, this holy decree was stamped with the seal of the Great Wei Dynasty, and it took effect as a holy decree of the Great Wei Dynasty.
"What?"
"The Three Princes are in charge of the country?"
"Could it be that something really happened to Your Majesty?"
"Impossible, even if you want to supervise the country, it will be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, so it will be the third prince!"
When the ministers heard about this decree, they immediately looked at each other, and when they saw each other's eyes, they all showed some unbelievable light.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what is the problem with my father's holy decree?"
As soon as the voice of the holy decree fell, the young man Cao Zhang, wearing a black-patterned four-dragon robe, wearing a jade crown, walked up to the court with the momentum of a prince, looked down at the ministers, and asked word by word.
"His Royal Highness King Peng, Your Majesty wants to ask, how is Your Majesty's condition?"
Minister Zhong Xuan stood up and asked.
"Father is fine!"
When Cao Zhang heard this, he smiled slightly, and calmly replied to the ministers: "My father's body is indeed a little sick, but it does not hinder my life, but this king, as the son of my father, hopes that my father can cultivate for a period of time, so this king prays to my father to share the heavy responsibility and supervise the country!" ”
What he said was very vague, and if he understood it differently, it would even give people the illusion that it was the emperor Cao Cao, who he personally imprisoned, who seized the government, not that Cao Cao was sick.
However, at this critical moment, his ambiguous statement made the ministers of the court and China dare not move.
Because of what he said, everyone couldn't figure out Cao Cao's situation.
If Cao Cao is gone, they will have the courage to toss, if Cao Cao is still there, then even if they are given another courage, they will not dare to act rashly, this is the coercion of Cao Cao, the founding monarch of the Great Wei Dynasty.
Cao Cao, who was the founding monarch of the Great Wei Dynasty, the emperor who single-handedly defeated the Great Wei Dynasty, in the Great Wei, no one dared to be confused in front of him.
"His Royal Highness King Peng, even if His Majesty is unwell, now that the crown prince is still here, you are just a prince, why do you supervise the country, this is not in line with the number of etiquette, so don't you want to take advantage of Your Majesty's critical illness to kill the army and seize the throne?"
At this time, a minister of Jiuqing under the command of the East Palace stood up and said indignantly.
"Du Tingwei, what you said is wrong, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is now fighting for the Great Wei, and I, Cao Zhang, have no intention of seizing the throne, but the burden of this prison country is precisely because the imperial brother has a heavy responsibility, so my father will only have the experience of this king!"
Cao Zhang's eyes swept over, and he said lightly: "Father and Emperor Holy Purpose are here, don't you want to be respectful?" ”
"I'm not convinced!"
A middle-aged man stood up and pointed at Cao Zhang: "His Royal Highness King Peng, the so-called young and old are orderly, even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lacks skills, there are still two princes, when will it be your turn to supervise the country!" ”
"Wei Yushi, are you questioning Your Majesty's holy decree?"
Cao Zhang looked at this middle-aged man, a thousand steps, his expression narrowed slightly, and his eyes were cold.
This imperial history surnamed Wei is a member of the Hedong Wei family, and he is also a member of Cao Pi's family, although Cao Pi can't compete with the prince, but he also has some connections in the court, so he naturally jumped out to oppose it at this time.
"His Royal Highness King Peng. You are wrong, I am questioning you for fooling Your Majesty and ...... without permission."
Click!
Before the words of this imperial history were finished, Cao Zhang suddenly made a move and cut off his head with a knife from the waist of a court guard next to him. It's neat and blood-spattered.
Above the court, there was a sudden silence.
"If you don't agree with each other, blood will be splattered!"
The minister's eyes looked at the young prince in disbelief, and someone couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, obviously frightened.
"Decisive killing, great courage of His Majesty!"
Xun Yu was also a little surprised, he used Cao Zhang to stabilize the court, and at that time he drove the ducks to the sedan chair. There was nothing he could do, but he didn't expect that Cao Zhang was more capable and courageous than he imagined.
"This king repeats, this is your majesty's holy decree, you can not obey this king's prison country, but you must not question your majesty's holy decree, to question your majesty's holy decree is to question your majesty. The sin of disrespect deserves to be killed! ”
Cao Zhang's cold voice sounded in the hall. The head knife in his hand flowed with this drop of blood, and his burly body was like a King Kong, and his momentum was high: "The Great Wei Million Erlang is now on the front line and the decisive battle of Eastern Wu, the people's hearts must not be chaotic, the court must not be chaotic, if there is a brotherhood between the king and the prince." There is no forgiveness for killing, if there is a person who disturbs our program, there is no forgiveness for killing, if there is a person who disturbs the hearts of my people, there is no forgiveness for killing!! ”
Cao Zhang's three consecutive killings are unforgiving. The sound was like thunder, constantly echoing in the hall, and it immediately shocked the ministers.
"Minister, Xun Yu, Lingzhi, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Xun Yu knew that it was time for him to stand up, so he stepped forward, bowed his head, arched his hands, and received the will in front of the ministers.
"Ministers, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Since Xun Yu, the prime minister, has approved this holy decree, then the ministers are helpless, and the most important thing is that they have been shocked by Cao Zhang.
At this time, Cao Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, he felt that his back was already covered with cold sweat.
————————————
The news that Cao Cao was critically ill and Cao Zhang's imprisonment was quickly passed through one announcement after another, and in less than a day, it had been transmitted to the entire Luoyang City, and there was a sudden storm in Luoyang City.
"Before the three princes reach the crown, they will supervise the country and the world, isn't it a great chaos in the world?"
"This decree is child's play!"
"Isn't there anyone in our Great Wei?"
"What is the situation of Your Majesty, whether you are seriously ill, this is really a bit of a rush to death, and he actually imprisoned the country with a stinky boy!"
Among them, there are many people who watch the excitement.
Although the dynasty has stabilized, the entire Great Wei has begun to have an undercurrent, and spies have come out to pass the news to all directions, and the court giants and wealthy families have all secretly accumulated strength, waiting for the appearance of accidents.
Because they know that if Cao Cao doesn't stand up for a day, no matter how Cao Zhang or Cao Ang tosses, the situation of the dragons without owners is a foregone conclusion, and in this case, it won't be stable for long, at most a month or two, and then it will definitely be chaotic.
Sima's Mansion.
Sima Lang is also an official of the court today, after he returned to the mansion from the court, he immediately went into the study, picked up the pen and ink, wrote several letters in a row, and asked the guards to send them out, he was relieved.
"It seems that we all underestimate this ******, if we don't fight at an age, our courage is not small, Xun Yu pushed him out, I originally thought it was just a puppet, but now it seems that ****** still has some ability!"
Cao Zhang's performance surprised him a little.
The tiger father has no dogs, but he is right.
At a young age, with such courage, he can suppress the ministers, and he can be regarded as having three points of Cao Cao's ability, otherwise there will be chaos in the early days of today.
He picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, his eyes were deep, a trace of thoughts appeared in his mind, and a sneer rose at the corner of his mouth: "At this time, Your Majesty had an accident, it must not be an accident, it can only be said that the tentacles of Dongwu are really long enough, and if you want the Great Wei Qunlong to be leaderless, the army is in turmoil, and you lost the battle of Yuzhou, and give up the entire Kanto land, I have to say, this person's plan is really vicious, I just don't know who did it?" ”
Sima Lang thought about it for a long time and sighed, there was too little news, he couldn't hold his mind.
At this time, his mind suddenly remembered the conversation he had with Sun Zhongmou next to the bonfire at the beginning of last year.
Maybe it's time to choose a new master for the Sima family!
A thought came out of nowhere. (To be continued.) )
