Chapter 5: The World is Unified!

After Cao Rui's death, Lu Rui stayed in Luoyang for a year, then asked Cao Rui to resign because he was unwell, left Luoyang City, and returned to Xudu to recuperate. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info This recuperation lasted for eight years, and the court of Cao Wei was full of turmoil, and Cao Shuang and Sima Yi became the darlings of the court.

Cao Shuang relied on the advantages of the Cao clan to unite with the Xiahou family to suppress Sima Yi, Sima Yi was forced to stay in Luoyang, and the military power was handed over to his sons Sima Shi and Sima Zhao. After Cao Shuang took sole power, he shelved Emperor Wei in the cabinet and monopolized power, becoming the only person in the court.

Sima Yi secretly accumulated strength in Luoyang and tried to make a comeback.

In the early spring of 249 AD, in the mansion of Taifu Xudu, Lu Rui came to the study with a cane.

"Master Taifu, everything is ready." Xu Fang handed a bottle of potion to Lu Rui.

Lu Rui took the potion and drank it all. The next day, the news of Lu Rui's death came from the Xu Du Taifu Mansion.

In the Luoyang Palace, Cao Fang received the news of Lu Rui's death.

"The death of Marquis Wenxin, the great death of the country, why doesn't God protect Great Wei?!" Cao Fang took the table and was stunned, originally Cao Fang had secretly sent an edict to Lu Rui, asking Lu Rui to send troops to the king, but before Lu Rui could make a move, Lu Rui died?

"Your Majesty, Marquis Wenxin is an important minister of the Four Dynasties, and he is the adopted son of Emperor Wu, the sister-in-law of Emperor Wen, who has made great contributions to the court, Marquis Wenxin died, Your Majesty should go to Luoyang to pay tribute in person." An official suddenly stood up and offered advice to Cao Fang.

"This.?" Cao Fang looked at Cao Shuang, there was no way for him to make decisions in the court, only Cao Shuang could decide the major affairs of the court.

"Your Majesty, Marquis Wenxin is an important minister of the state and should go to pay respects, but Your Majesty is in danger of the world. Don't leave the national capital easily, you can send a heavy minister to Xu Capital to worship, and at the same time transport the body of Wenxin Hou back to Fan County for burial, so that Wen Xinhou and Her Royal Highness the princess are in the same cave, in order to comfort the love between the two husband and wife! Sima Shi suddenly stood up. arched his hand back to Cao Fang.

"What General Sima said is reasonable, I don't know what the general thinks?" Cao Fang was used to this kind of answer, and now even the Sima clan was afraid of Cao Shuang, and wanted everything to be subject to Cao Shuang's opinion.

The minister felt that what General Sima said was reasonable, and the Marquis of Wenxin was an important minister of the state, and the minister felt that he should let Sima Shi and General Sima Zhao and his brother Cao Xun go to Luoyang to worship the Marquis of Wenxin. To show your majesty's heart! Cao Shuang arched his hand, returned to Cao Fang, and transferred Sima Yi's two most powerful sons away, and he had more important things to do.

"Okay, this matter is according to the words of the general!" Cao Fang nodded and agreed to Cao Shuang's proposal.

After the next dynasty. Cao Shuang's mansion.

"Brother, do you really want the younger brother to go with Brother Sima to worship his uncle?" Cao Xun hugged the beauty and asked Cao Shuang puzzled.

"Uncle has watched us grow up since childhood, and his body has been dragging for many years, and now that he has passed away, we should go to pay respects, and you will go to see my uncle off for the last time on behalf of my brother. But it's more important for you to keep an eye on the Sima brothers. Watch their every move! Cao Shuang narrowed his eyes, he just didn't have the opportunity to transfer the two brothers, and he didn't expect that the opportunity would be sent to the door now.

Cao Shuang has a purpose this time, Cao Shuang is only a nominal Cao clansman, he is not Cao Cao's grandson at all, and his father Cao Zhen is only Cao Cao's adopted son, now Cao Fang is weak, Lu Rui has already faded out of the court, and now he is dead again, leaving Sima Yi alone. As long as Sima Yi is solved, Cao Shuang will be the first person in Cao Wei.

"What do you mean, brother?"

"Hmph, stupid, the Sima brothers are Sima Yi's two most powerful sons, and now Sima Yi is recuperating at home. As long as his two sons are transferred, no one in the capital can balance the general, and after a while it will be the death day of the first emperor, His Majesty will go out of Beijing to worship his ancestors, and the general will take the opportunity to suggest to His Majesty that the throne be handed over to the general! Cao Shuang smiled slightly, he has been planning for a long time, this is a unique opportunity, as soon as the Sima brothers leave, he can completely control Luoyang.

"The eldest brother is wise, and the younger brother is ashamed!" Cao Xun doesn't care who is the emperor at all, but Cao Shuang is the emperor, he is the emperor's brother, he is more rich and noble, and there are more beauties.

"Hmph, don't giggle all day long, this time you are going to mourn, you have to go alone, don't bring the maid, take care of the two Sima brothers, otherwise you want to look good for your brother!"

"Brother, don't worry, if you leave this matter to your younger brother, there will be no mistakes!" Cao Xun hugged the beauty and kissed it, and happily agreed to Cao Shuang.

The next day, Cao Xun followed the Sima brothers to Xudu to pay homage to Lu Rui.

Half a month later, on the outskirts of Xudu, Sima Shi took out a secret letter from a pigeon and handed it to Sima Zhao.

"Brother, my father has asked Guo Huai to advance to Luoyang with Hanoi's army, and it is time for our two brothers to return to Luoyang." After worshipping Lu Rui, the Sima brothers stayed in Xudu, one to confuse the Cao brothers, and the other to wait for Sima Yi's news, Sima Yi was scheming, as long as Lu Rui did not die, he would never do it, with the news of his two sons, Sima Yi began to secretly deploy.

"Second brother, that idiot should also be solved, tonight we tricked Cao Xun into a brothel in the name of drinking, and then do it!" Sima Shi smiled slightly, after playing for so long, it should also be Cao Xun.

"Don't worry, eldest brother, the younger brother has already arranged it, and I will watch the younger brother tonight!"

"Yes!" Sima Shi nodded and let the pigeon go, and then went to prepare with Sima Zhao.

In the evening, Cao Xun was invited by the Sima brothers to the brothel in Xudu to drink, and when Cao Xun was drunk in the morning, Sima Shi solved Cao Xun.

"Hmph, what an idiot, it's too embarrassing for General Cao Zhen!" Sima Shi didn't expect to kill Cao Xun with a sword, what a waste.

"Big brother, everyone else has been solved, let's go back to Luoyang to meet our father!"

"Hahahaha! Two virtuous nephews, since you have come to Xudu, why don't you stay for a while and accompany me, an old man?! When the Sima brothers were happy, a loud old man's voice suddenly came, startling the two of them.

"Lu Rui?" After Sima Shi found the person who spoke, he was stunned, this was actually Lu Rui, who had died some time ago.

"Hey, it seems that Zhongda's godson has no way, and he dares to call the old man by his name when he sees him. It seems that these two sons cannot be kept! Lu Rui shook his head, and the killer behind him rushed forward and killed the Sima brothers with his fighting skills.

"Taifu, everything is settled." Xu Fang cut off the heads of the Sima brothers and brought them to Lu Rui.

"Good. Xu Fang, order Shang'er to act according to the plan! Lu Rui took out Cao Fang's secret edict of rebellion and handed it to Xu Fang.

"Yes, sir!"

In the imperial mausoleum on the outskirts of Luoyang, Cao Fang, under the protection of Cao Shuang, led his ministers to worship the emperors of Cao Wei. Cao Shuang held a long sword and guarded outside the imperial tomb. Cao Shuang had already made up his mind to launch an army on Cao Fang's way back to the city, and let Cao Fang crown himself as the King of Wei! Begin to copy Cao Cao's path.

"Big brother, big brother, it's not good, Luoyang. Luoyang is lost! Just when Cao Shuang fantasized about the hope of victory, Cao Xi ran to the imperial tomb in a panic and cried to Cao Shuang.

"What, what do you say? Make it clear.! Cao Shuang grabbed Cao Xi, how could Sima Yi suddenly make a move?

Cao Xi cried and told what happened: Early this morning, Cao Xi had not received Cao Xun's secret report on the fifth day, and Cao Xi was puzzled. One of Cao Xun's personal soldiers fled back to Luoyang and told Cao Xi that Cao Xun had been killed by the Sima brothers.

When Cao Xi heard this, of course he knew that Sima had made a move, and Cao Xi hurriedly gathered the soldiers and horses in the palace to try to control the four gates, but Sima Yi was ahead of Cao Xi, and with the assistance of Guo Huai, he led the army to defeat Cao Xi's troops and control Xudu. Cao Xi was released by Sima Yi and came to inform Cao Shuang. Let Cao Shuang go to Luoyang to surrender, Sima Yi promised not to kill Cao Shuang's people.

"Big brother, the family is now in the hands of Sima Yi, if the eldest brother doesn't make a decision early, I'm afraid the family will be ruined." Cao Xi looked at Cao Shuang crying. All the clansmen are in Sima Yi's hands, and Sima Yi has already released cruel words, if he doesn't see Cao Shuang surrender tomorrow, the clansmen will be killed in batches.

"General, don't return to Luoyang, Sima Yi is a tiger and wolf, he will not have mercy on the general, the general's current plan should lead His Majesty to Xudu, carry out the ambition of Emperor Wu, coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, the general will gather troops and horses in Xudu, and fight again in the future, Sima Yi will be defeated!" Cao Shuang's army member Huan Fan hurriedly advised Cao Shuang not to be deceived by Sima Yi.

"Big brother, the clansmen are all in Sima Yi's hands!"

"General, the clan is gone, as long as the general is here, the clan can still prosper, if the general surrenders, even the general will be killed, and the general's family will not be in the world at that time, which is more important, please think twice!"

"I can't bear to suffer from the victims, and I am willing to surrender to the captain!" Cao Shuang closed his eyes, it was the life of hundreds of clansmen, Cao Shuang didn't dare to mess around, he had to bet on Sima Yi's mercy.

"Hmph, Cao Zidan Beauty, why did you give birth to a child like this?!" Huan Fan shook his head, Cao Shuang would definitely die when he went back.

"How dare you say that?!" When Cao Shuang heard this, he ordered someone to tie up Heng Fan, and at the same time sent Cao Xi to reply to Sima Yi, and was willing to surrender to Sima Yi tomorrow.

Outside Luoyang City, Sima Yi took Guo Huai to greet Cao Fang outside the city.

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!" Sima Yi smiled and bowed to Cao Fang, after today, he will be the first person in Cao Wei.

"The Qing family is flat!" Cao Fang looked at Sima Yi, from the eyes of the old lady, Cao Fang saw a stronger desire for power than Cao Shuang, could it be that the tiger was driven in front and the wolf was in the back door?

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Sima Yi and Guo Huai got up with all the soldiers.

"Captain, that's.?" Suddenly, Guo Huai pointed ahead, and a large number of unknown troops were approaching Luoyang, which were not reinforcements from the Sima brothers from the direction.

"What?!" Sima Yi was stunned, and a feeling of unease rose in his heart.

"Zhong Da, I haven't seen you for many years, Zhong Da is still majestic, Ben Hou heard that Zhong Da has been seriously ill for many days in Xudu, why is he so radiant today?" Lu Rui appeared in front of Sima Yi in a military uniform.

"Uncle?!" When Cao Shuang saw Lu Rui, as if he had seen a savior, he crawled to Lu Rui's horse.

"Uncle save my nephew!"

"Shuang'er, it's okay to be like a man, it's really embarrassing!" Lu Rui shook his head, Cao Shuang was strong and capable, he was still a little heroic when he fought wits with Sima Yi in the court, but now he is like an idiot when he encounters setbacks, thinking about how heroic Cao Zhen was back then, but his son is not a hero.

"Extraordinary, the old man's two sons are now safe?!" When Sima Yi saw Lu Rui, he knew that Sima Shi and Sima Zhao had met with an accident, but Sima Yi still wanted to make a last fight.

"Zhongda, this is the head of your two sons, these two people have killed the royal family and have been punished by Rui Zhengfa."

"Lost, lost, extraordinary, the old man is old, can the old man have a decent death? The old man went back to the city to hang himself, and he didn't make a profit. Sima Yi dropped the horsewhip and dismounted to bow to Lu Rui.

"Zhongda, do you know that there are not many people who Rui admires in this life, Zhongda is one of them, at such a juncture, Zhongda still wants to get out of the way and want to return to Hanoi to make a comeback?"

"Zhongda, don't bother, look at your rear!"

Sima Yi looked back, and another army was heading towards Luoyang, with a big Du character written on the banner! Lü Rui had already arranged for Du Pre to lead the Hedong army to raid Hanoi, behead Sima Yi's third son, Sima Ping, and take control of Hanoi County.

"Hanoi is already in the hands of this general, what else does Zhongda have to say?!"

"Lu Rui, you kill my son and destroy my people, I, Sima Yi, will fight with you today!" Sima Yi gritted his teeth and couldn't hold back any longer, jumped on the horse again, and swung his sword at Lu Rui.

The hero is the hero, Sima Yi still has such courage when he is dying, it is not a loss to the wolf Gu Sima! If it was twenty years earlier, Lu Rui would definitely wave his sword to greet him, but he was old and didn't want to move.

"Wen Yang, take the head of the rebel!" Lu Rui summoned a young general and killed Sima Yi from his horse. Since then, Cao Wei's chaotic government has come to an end, and Cao Shuang was demoted to a hometown marquis and sent to guard Cao Zhen's tomb. The three clans of Sima Yi were executed, and the Cao Wei regime returned to Cao Fang.

In 255 A.D., Cao Fang sent the general Lu Wang as the commander, led the general Jiang Wei in the east, Deng Ai, the general in the west, Zhong Hui, the general in the north, and Du Pre-divided the troops in the south to attack Hebei, Liu Chan put the people first, and ordered the prime minister Wang Xiang to enter Luoyang to ask for surrender, since then the three kingdoms have been reunified, Cao Wei unified the whole country in the hands of Cao Fang, and the territory of Wei was restored to the strong period of the Western Han Dynasty.

In 280 AD, Lü Rui died of illness in Luoyang, and Cao Fang, who was crusading against foreign races in Mobei, returned to Luoyang with a tiger and leopard to give Lü Rui a funeral. Cao Fangjin named Lu Rui as the Duke of Qi Guo, hereditary replacement. In 290 AD, Cao Fang died of illness, and Cao Mu, the son of Cao Fang, ascended the throne, and in order to show Lu Rui's merits, he crowned Lu Rui as the king of Song and enjoyed the Taimiao. In 620 AD, after more than ten generations of Cao Wei, Emperor Cao De of Wei lost his morality, was unscrupulous, the world was in chaos, and foreign races took the opportunity to invade the Central Plains. After Lü Rui, Lü Duan raised troops in Fan County, overthrew Cao Wei's rule, repelled the alien races, and reunified the Central Plains.

In 630 AD, Lü Duan proclaimed himself emperor in Luoyang, and established a new dynasty with the title of his ancestor Lü Rui as the country and the founding name of the country as the Song dynasty.
