"What the hell are you trying to do here?"

"At the beginning, you wanted to support the noble townsman as the emperor."

"Now you're here again, why the hell?"

Sima Zhao likes to use the way of knowingly asking people to play with people's hearts, but this time, he swears that he really doesn't understand what the Guo family wants to do.

Wang Su sent someone to deliver the letter again.

The letter made it clear that the Guo family didn't care about the enthronement at all, and after Guo Jian arrived in Yuancheng, he took Cao Chao around all day long, eating, drinking and having fun.

I wanted to visit him several times, but I was always turned away, and I went out to play as soon as I asked.

He couldn't see Guo Jian and Cao Chao at all, and he couldn't fulfill the general's request and asked to return to Luoyang.

After Sima Zhao received the letter, he only felt that his head was too big.

The eldest brother has not been in good health recently, and his eye disease is getting more and more serious, so he handed over the big things to himself and let himself be responsible.

As a result, just the things that greeted me were made all over the ground by myself.

During these days, he kept receiving letters from Yuancheng.

The contents of these letters perplexed him in particular.

Especially about Cao Chao, every time a letter comes, their evaluation of Cao Chao is always different.

One will say that he is a gentleman, one will say that he is a wicked man, one will say that he is a gentleman, and one will say what a gentleman....

Is there really such a complicated person?

You're joining forces to play with me, aren't you??

Guo De sat in front of Sima Zhao, and when he heard Sima Zhao's inquiry, he was also extremely angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to show this anger.

His younger brother Guo Jian also sent a letter.

In the letter, Cao Chao was greatly praised, and at the same time, Wang Su's problem was also mentioned.

He mentioned that Wang Su had the idea of being involved in his own status, and humiliated the Guo family in public, Cao Chao went to see Wang Su several times, but Wang Su was closed!

These are all Guo Jian's original words.

When Guo De heard Sima Zhao's words, he was naturally sad and angry in his heart.

Wang Su closed the door and disappeared, and he still wanted to beat a rake?

Or do you Sima family simply want to hinder us in this way??

The alliance of these great families is not as strong as they think.

Besides, the credibility of the Sima family.

Everyone knows.

Their family is well-known for their trustworthiness, saying that if you are prosperous and rich in your life, then you must punish the three clans.

Although the younger brother is not successful, between the Sima family and his younger brother, Guo De will still believe in his younger brother.

It seems that this Sima family is determined to seek power in the palace, and this Wang Su is their accomplice, yes, after all, if Sima Zhao is on the throne, then their family is a legitimate relative.

Guo Debi stood up respectfully, and said very frightenedly: "General, there must be some misunderstanding in this. ”

"I just want to know, what is the misunderstanding, what do you really want? Although you say bluntly, we are a family, but don't be instigated by outsiders. ”

Sima Zhao couldn't understand why the other party was so cautious about himself?

Why don't you trust more?

Guo De explained: "The general doesn't know, my family offended the prince in the past, it's not that my brother doesn't want to see the prince, it's that the prince doesn't want to see my brother!" ”

Sima Zhao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly woke up.

That's right, how can I forget, if my own family is on the throne, then Wang Su won't be....

Could it be that Wang Su is obstructing it? Want to skip some of the necessary steps and go straight to the last step??

No, he's not such an eager person, is he?

Seeing that Sima Zhao was stunned, Guo De said again: "I will never let private affairs delay state affairs, please rest assured, the general has already written to his younger brother, asking him to ask the prince to plead guilty, to meet with him, and bring His Majesty back to the temple as soon as possible." ”

Sima Zhao nodded, and his face became a little strange.

"Okay, okay, then you can go back first."

Guo De said goodbye, and then left the general's mansion in a hurry.

Sima Zhao didn't call any more advisers, he pondered for a long time before he said to the servants on the side: "You go and call Yan over to me!" ”

Soon, Sima Yan, who was dismantled in a cloak, appeared in front of Sima Zhao again.

Sima Yan's hair was so long that even if he tied a crown, it would still fall to the ground.

Sima Yan was very afraid of his father, standing in front of him, trembling.

When Sima Zhao saw his appearance, he felt angry in his heart, he had extremely high expectations for this son, and always hoped that he could surpass himself and be like his father and brother, but judging from his current performance, he was not even as good as himself, let alone a father and brother.

"Flame... You go on a long trip for me. ”

"Huh?"

"Father, where am I going?"

"Yuan Cheng."

"Where do I go and what do I do?"

"Proof the Emperor."

Sima Yan was confused, and he asked, "Isn't my grandfather already gone?" Why should I go? ”

"Yan, you have to remember that even if it is your grandfather, after all, it is not surnamed Sima, and all we can trust is our own blood relatives of the same clan."

"They each have their own ideas, you go to Yuancheng this time, you don't have to do anything, just watch them, let them complete the matter of inheriting the throne, and then follow the emperor back, if you can, contact the emperor more."

"But I made an agreement with Liang to be together..."

Sima Yan was about to say something, when he raised his head, but when he saw his father's fierce eyes, he was so frightened that he immediately lowered his head.

"I'll go now!"

........

In the Chaoyang Palace, Guo De and the Queen Mother sat facing each other.

Guo De no longer hid his anger at the moment.

"Queen Mother, I think the Sima family really can't wait, now that the general is seriously ill, Sima Zhao can't wait!"

"Every time he talked to me, he always talked about the emperor's frame and honor guard, and his eyes were full of longing."

"He deliberately asked Wang Su to greet Cao Chao, I think he just doesn't want to support Cao Chao, or wants to use King Pengcheng to control the palace."

"We've got to figure out a way."

There was also a trace of anger on Empress Dowager Guo's face, "Over the years, we have been very good friends with the Sima family, and we have led them in everything, even the abolition of the emperor, we have done our best to help, but now we are treated like this by them?" ”

"Heh, how did the Sima family ever talk about friendship?"

"There's definitely going to be more for them, maybe they're going to do it to us next."

"My Guo clan is not as good as his Sima clan, but his Sima clan is not a one-handed cover of the sky, since Emperor Wen, many of our sages have assisted the government together, but the Sima family is the head, and now the Sima clan can't wait to attack us, what will the rest of the sages think?"

"I asked my father to visit them, to get the support of these great sages, if the Sima clan is desperate to get rid of us today, then they will be the ones who will be eliminated in the future, and they will not watch us be eliminated."

Since Cao Pi made a compromise and concession to the family, the gate lord politics began to gradually become stronger, and the official positions in the court and the central government almost fell into the hands of those big clans, and there was no place for anyone else.

The prime minister must start from the state department, and the fierce general must be sent from the army, which has become a at the moment.

They cooperate with each other and at the same time oppose each other, they don't care who is the emperor or the untouchables in those places.

They have monopolies, knowledge, land, bureaucracy in all respects....

Even if it is Sima Shi, it is not easy to solve this matter, after all, his Sima family is the largest family today.

All the Sima family could do was to continuously increase the strength of their own clan to suppress the rest of the clans.

This time, Cao Chao took advantage of the distrust between the two sides through poor information, which caused suspicion within the Sima family.

This suspicion has always existed, but Cao Chao has made it more obvious.

"And what do you want me to do?"

Empress Dowager Guo asked.

"Build momentum for Cao Chao, let the ministers recognize this new son of heaven, make the crimes of King Pengcheng public, and let the Sima family cut off the idea of supporting King Pengcheng."

"Hmm.... How do you build momentum? ”

"I heard Jian say that Cao Chao has always called Jian as his uncle, and regarded Emperor Liezu as his father and you as his mother."

"If Cao Chao wants to be the emperor, he will inherit the mantle of Emperor Liezu."

"Why don't you sit down on this matter, take him as your own son, and let him succeed Emperor Xiaoming, who is responsible for sacrificing the temple of the ancestor, and become the rightful successor?"

"You mean, just like Cao Fang?"

"Cao Fang is really unreasonable, but Cao Chao is different, he is very close to our family, with him as his son, in this palace, we still have the final say."

"And he can also become the rightful successor, does the Sima family dare to say that he supports the king of Pengcheng?"

"Good !!"
