However, since there is no harm in Sima Yong being the prince's housekeeper, Sima Shi doesn't want to have this doubt, in the end, this matter is too small.

Sesame mung beans only.

"Come on, go and find Sima Yong for Lone."

After thinking about it for a long time, Sima Shi raised his head and said to the door.

"No."

The guards outside the door said yes and immediately went down.

"Sima Yong ......"

After the guards left, Sima Shi fell into deep thought again. For Sima Yong, Sima Shi didn't have any ideas.

He only knew that Sima Yong liked literature on weekdays, and he had never used the identity of his third uncle Sima Fu to interfere in government politics.

But that's about it.

In fact, he is not to blame, he only cares about weakening the Cao family, and the people of his own family have not paid much attention to it.

"Meet my brother."

While Sima Shi was pondering, Sima Yong walked in from outside and greeted Dao.

Sima Yong is in his thirties, slender and quite handsome, probably because he usually only cares about reading, his complexion is a little white, and he has a pinch of beard on his chin.

Sima Yongben was puzzled in the house, and when he heard that Sima Shi had summoned, he came.

As for the reason for thinking, it is naturally the holy decree of the prince issued by the Son of Heaven, and Sima Yong at this moment can be said to have an inexplicable feeling of being shot while lying down.

If he asked his younger brother Sima Wang to be the prince's housekeeper, this is reasonable, after all, the emperor and Sima Wang used to discuss literature in private, and they had a lot of sympathy.

But let him be the prince, I can't figure it out.

"Brother Xian, please get up." Sima Shi woke up from his contemplation when he heard this, and said with a pleasant face.

"Brother Xie."

Sima Yong thanked him.

Immediately, under the command of Sima Shi, Sima Yong sat opposite Sima Shi. As soon as he sat down, Sima Shi asked, "Can you guess what I am looking for you for?" ”

"Give up for the prince." Sima Yong said.

"That's right, it's the prince." Sima Shi nodded and said, paused, and said, "I don't know what the virtuous brother thinks of this matter?" ”

"It's too sudden, I don't know." Sima Yong said honestly.

"And what about the position of the crown prince?"

Sima Shi was a little disappointed when he heard this, but he couldn't figure out why, and he was already prepared for Sima Yong's answer, so he quickly asked again.

"It's all up to my brother." Sima Yong said immediately.

It can be seen from this that Sima Yong is a man of life, he kicked all the balls to Sima Shi, everything is decided by Sima Shi, he will not make mistakes, and he will not attract suspicion.

Seeing that he couldn't ask why, Sima Yong kicked back the matter of the prince's sacrifice to him.

Sima Shi was quite helpless in his heart, and said on his face: "Since it is the decree of the Son of Heaven, then the virtuous brother will go and be the prince of the prince." ”

"No."

Sima Yong said as promised, looking as usual, obviously Sima Shi's words did not surprise Sima Yong.

The matter had been agreed, and Sima Yong should go back to prepare for the work that the prince should do, so he quickly took his leave and left.

In the study, Sima Shi looked at the direction Sima Yong left, shook his head, and then put this matter behind him, since the matter was decided, there would be no further changes.

……

Early the next morning, Cao Cao, who had slept all night, remembered Guo Shen's injury, and after washing, he took Liu Sui and came to the main hall where Chengji had beaten Guo Shen before.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

When Cao Cao entered the main hall, a group of princes and people put down their official duties and came up to pay their respects.

Since the incident in the palace that day, the younger generation of the Sima clan led by Sima Yan has never come again, and there are a few princes in the palace of Nuoda, and it looks quite deserted.

It is precisely because of that incident in the palace that Cao Cao's prestige among the prince's people has also increased countless times. If Cao Cao had entered the main hall before, he would definitely salute, but he would not have been so enthusiastic.

"Hmm."

Cao Cao hummed lightly, looked around, and frowned.

"Your Majesty, Guo Shen's health is not very good, plus he was beaten by Chengji's dog thief before, and now he is still being treated in the house."

"But it is said that there is no major problem, and you can enter the palace after two days of rest."

Tian Pengzu observed his words, saw Cao Cao's expression, and knew who he was looking for, and hurriedly walked out of the group of princes and said.

Tian Pengzu is the son of Tian Yu and the leader of the younger generation of Cao Wei's loyal Cao Yi party, as for why Sima Shi didn't rectify him, it was because he took into account that Tian Yu had guarded the northern Xinjiang for the Cao family for more than 20 years and assisted the prestige of the five emperors, so they had not moved their father and son.

Of course, Sima Shi has not tried, but once Tian Yu and his son Tian Pengzu are moved, and some people in Zhouzhou, Youzhou, and even Yangzhou will be angry, and even once they made trouble in Luoyang, there is no way, Tian Yu is too popular with the people, Sima Shi has no choice, so he simply doesn't care, and let Tian Yu and Tian Pengzu go.

Anyway, these people don't have real power, so let them be.

Cao Cao also naturally knew Tian Yu's son and sighed.

Tian Pengzu was not present in the palace that day. However, afterwards, I heard that the emperor made Sima Yan and others disgraced and shouted for help.

Tian Pengzu was happy in his heart, and naturally respected Cao Cao, the son of heaven.

However, Tian Pengzu suddenly thought of something, frowned and asked, "I heard that Your Majesty asked Sima Yong to be the prince's housekeeper?" Is it the persecution of Sima Shi? ”

Tian Pengzu has always been outspoken because his father is a military general.

"This time it's not the persecution of King Jin, I often hear the name of Sima Yong, who is loyal and honest, has great talents, and even to the point of fame in Luoyang, just when Chengji died, the crown prince was short of one person, so he was appointed."

Cao Cao saw that Guo Shen was not there, so he had no desire to continue staying, and was about to leave, when he heard Tian Pengzu's inquiry, he stopped and replied with interest.

And Tian Pengzu was dumbfounded when he heard it.

If Cao Cao was not the Son of Heaven, I am afraid he would have pointed his nose and scolded.

Loyal and honest? Phew! The people of the Sima family are extremely cunning!

There is a great talent, and the fame of Luoyang is shocked? It's so powerful, I've been in Luoyang for so long, and I haven't heard much about the Sima family having this one named Sima Yong!

Well? Those of us who have been outside the palace all the year round don't know that there is such a person, how can Your Majesty know that he lives in the deep palace?

While thinking about it, Tian Pengzu looked at Cao Cao with a puzzled gaze.

If Cao Cao killed Cheng Ji before, stabbed Zhang Hu blindly, and whipped Sima Yan, Tian Pengzu was just suspicious, then now Tian Pengzu has affirmed that this emperor is not simple.

A look of awe gradually appeared in his eyes.

"Your Majesty......"

I pondered in my heart for a long time, even if Cao Cao had other purposes, but let someone from the Sima family come in......

"I understand what Peng Zu means, but now is not the time, and I can't say more."

Cao Cao knew the doubts in Tian Pengzu's heart, but now Sima's cronies are all over the palace, and if he says too much, he will lose.

Therefore, Cao Cao directly avoided Tian Pengzu on the grounds that the time had not come.

"Since Your Majesty knows, why do you use someone from the Sima family? After all, now that Sima Shi is strong and we are weak, wouldn't it be better to use people loyal to Cao to protect the emperor? ”

Tian Pengzu still insisted on asking.

"What is given to Sima Yong is just the position of the prince, regardless of whether Sima Yong is loyal to the Cao family or not, if he wants to get rid of Sima Shi, there are not many more Sima Yong, and there are many less Sima Yong, but if he hesitates in this matter, he will arouse Sima Shi's suspicion."

Cao Cao was helpless, and looked around to see if there were any cronies of the Sima family, and tried to make a long story short.

"Your Majesty wants to get rid of Sima Shi?"

Tian Pengzu asked with a little surprise.

"That's right, drive away Sima Shi, and then occupy Luoyang and several surrounding counties, and gather loyal ministers from all states to attack Sima Shi in the name of the Son of Heaven."

This is also a rough plan that Cao Cao can think of, the first condition for success is to seize the initiative in Luoyang, and then attack Sima Shi.

It was not to kill Sima Shi, but to expel Sima Shi from Luoyang, because Sima Shi's power was too great, even if Cao Cao took the risk of killing Sima Shi, Sima's cronies from all over the state would flock to him, and the north would become a mess.

Why not expel Sima Shi from Luoyang, Sima Shi will either flee to Xuzhou, which is guarded by Hu Fen, or flee to Yanzhou, which is controlled by Deng Ai, or flee to other places, and then unite with Chen Tai's Yongliang Prefecture to exterminate Sima Shi in one fell swoop.

If necessary, you can also conspire with other two countries, after all, all the people who have attacked the two countries in recent years are Sima people, not to mention the resentment between the puppet Han Jiang Wei and the Sima family, just talking about Eastern Wu, last year, the 200,000 Wu army led by Zhuge Ke of Eastern Wu was all slaughtered by Sima Shi, and the Sima family has formed a mortal enmity with Eastern Wu.

As he spoke, Cao Cao's eyes were shiny and ambitious.

Tian Pengzu was shocked by Cao Cao's crisp and decisive answer, and then thought of something, and smiled bitterly: "Sima Shi has almost all the military power of the Great Wei, and there are at least hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers. ”

"Hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, it's a lot, but it's not necessarily impossible to plan." Cao Cao smiled slightly and said.

He knew that Tian Pengzu would say this, although Tian Pengzu had obtained the true inheritance of his father and understood some military strategies, but Tian Pengzu was much worse at the way of deceit and the grasp of the situation.

"Zhendong General Biqiu Jian, Yangzhou Assassin Shi Wenqin and the two are loyal and righteous people, if they raise troops in Yangzhou and get the help of Eastern Wu, Sima Shi will definitely be greatly panicked and personally recruit, and at that time it is the time for me to take advantage of the situation, and I don't need many elite soldiers to expel the Sima clan." After a pause, Cao Cao stretched out a finger and said.

"Biqiu Jian, Wen Qin will raise an army to fight against Sima Shi?" Tian Pengzu said in surprise.

"Biqiu Jian, Wen Qin is a loyal and righteous man, if he learns that Sima Shi almost forced me to commit suicide, he will definitely raise an army, and if Sima Shi learns this news, he will be furious and personally lead the army to conquer, this will be our opportunity to take advantage of the situation and seize Luoyang. Revive the royal family! ”

For the first time, Cao Cao completely revealed his plan to others.

"This, this."

Tian Pengzu never thought that this Son of Heaven would have such a plan, not only to the point, but also to be bold enough to snatch Luoyang under the hundreds of thousands of troops of Sima Shi!

But on the other hand, Tian Pengzu was also excited. Because of the decline of the royal family, these people are short-witted, and they have always been trapped in the current situation, although they are full of ambitions, but no one has ever been able to think of a definite battle plan to turn the tide and revitalize the royal family.

And Cao Cao thought of it!

Cao's revival is expected!

However, Tian Pengzu quickly calmed down again, as he discovered a fatal flaw in Cao Cao's plan.

Sima Zhao's existence.

"Your Majesty, although the timing may be as you said, Biqiu Jian, Wen Qin will raise an army to fight against Sima Shi, it is indeed our opportunity. But don't forget, the prince, there is also a Sima Zhao! Sima Zhao is treacherous and cunning, and his ferocity is no weaker than his brother, if he stays in Luoyang, or returns to Luoyang during Sima Shi's battle, then what should we do?"

Tian Pengzu sighed and said.

Although Tian Pengzu's expression was very disappointed, judging from his tone and demeanor, he had completely regarded Cao Cao as a figure who could plan and discuss.

The Cao family has only one breath left, and no matter how much they toss, they will be dead at most, if they can capture Luoyang, the revival of the Cao family is hopeful!

The Cao family will be reborn from the ashes and soar into the sky!

Hearing the three words Sima Zhao, Cao Cao's eyes were cold, this Sima Zhao was indeed a scourge.

In Cao Chao's original memory, although Sima Shi suppressed the rebellion of Biqiu Jian and Wenqin, but the sores burst out and soon died, Cao Chao was overjoyed, he realized that this was a good opportunity to seize power, so he ordered Sima Zhao to stay in Xuchang, so that Shang Shu Fu "led the six armies back to Beijing", and began to plan a palace coup.

Unexpectedly, Sima Zhao saw through Cao Chao's strategy, and he led the army back to Luoyang ahead of schedule. In this way, Cao Chao's plan fell through, in order to avoid causing more serious trouble, Cao Chao had to accept the established facts, and named Sima Zhao as the general and king of Jin, from then on, Sima Zhao was in charge alone, until he killed Cao Chao, Cao Chao never found a chance to trip Sima again.

However, the lonely king has already planned, this Sima Zhao, if he dares to return to Luoyang, what awaits him will be an abyss!

Cao Cao's eyes were cold, and he was silent and said to Tian Pengzu: "Regarding Sima Zhao, I have my own plans, and I have been talking here for so long, I'm afraid I can't hide it from Sima Shi's ears and eyes, I will leave first, and you will continue to be busy with official business first." ”

"Hmm." Of course, Tian Pengzu also knew this, and nodded, Tian Pengzu at this time gave people a very tired feeling.

Because for Tian Pengzu, today is really too much.

The Son of Heaven, who was originally useless, suddenly became shrewd, and extremely shrewd. single-handedly planned the feat of seizing Luoyang, and wanted to pull teeth from the mouth of Sima Shi, who had hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

It is not beneficial to extract teeth.

In addition, once today's day passes, Cao Cao will definitely become the mastermind of their forces, single-handedly planning the entire process of reversing and seizing.

Although it is said that it solves their confusion, it also pushes them to the cusp, one wrong step, it may be an abyss, and next, it depends on success or failure.

The achievement is that there is still a glimmer of life, if it fails, the Cao family's society will collapse with a bang, and those of them who are loyal to Cao's party will die without a place to be buried.
