Chapter 080: Repay
"Chengjun, why are you so kind to me?"
Cao Chao brought the Hu bed and put it in front of Cheng Ji, looked at him carefully with his eyes, and couldn't help asking.
Cheng Ji kept a straight face and didn't say a word.
Now, Cao Chao has no acquaintances around him again.
The four new chamberlains didn't dare to record their words and deeds openly, and kept their distance at all times.
The two Yellow Gate officials, one of them is called Sima Hui, and the other is called Sima Che, I heard that both of them are distant relatives of the Sima family, probably the kind of Wufu, otherwise they would not have come to be some Yellow Gate officials for themselves.
The attitude of these two people towards Cao Chao is quite kind.
And the new head of the guard, Cheng Ji, although he knew Cao Chao in the past, did not say a word at the moment.
The way he looked at Cao Chao was very different.
Cao Chao felt that it was not the eyes of looking at people, but the eyes of looking at prey.
It's only been a long time since I saw him, why did Cheng Jun treat himself as a prey?
Cheng Ji said indifferently: "Your Majesty, the minister doesn't dare to say much. ”
"Hahaha, what a fierce general Cheng Jun is, he once taught martial arts and me, how can he not dare to say more now?"
Cheng Ji kept a straight face again and no longer paid attention to Cao Chao.
Cao Chao saw clearly in his heart that this guy was clearly instructed by Sima Zhao.
When Sima Shi came that day, his state looked very bad, his left eye had been wrapped, if he was not mistaken, this guy should have used the knife just like in history.
Historically, Sima Shi had a certain improvement in the situation after cutting the tumor with a knife, but then faced the uprising of Biqiu Jian, and hurried to the battlefield, and after pacifying Biqiu Jian in a very fast time, he died of illness on the battlefield, and many people speculated that Sima Shi died of inflammation after surgery.
My situation is completely different from that of the week.
When I was in the first week, I chose Gou, always seeking stability, brushing up my reputation among those loyal and good, and actively winning over the scholars, but this did not play any role, but made me lose a lot of opportunities.
In the second week, he had successfully caused the Sima family to suppress it with all his might, but he had also become a banner against the Sima family.
At the very least, Biqiu Jian had resisted the idea of rebellion and began to calmly confront the Sima family.
This is simply putting the Sima family in a dilemma, let's start fighting rashly, there is no certainty of victory, drag it out, Sima Shi's condition is so serious.
Of course, the risk of doing so is also very large, although it has attracted those people with lofty ideals who oppose the Sima family at home and abroad, but Sima Shi will not let go of himself easily, if he is about to die, then he will definitely be buried with him.
With the talent he was showing so far, how could Sima Shi possibly leave himself to make trouble for his younger brother?
Then, Cheng Ji is likely to be drawn by Sima Zhao, if the general changes, then quickly control himself, maybe he will get rid of himself in secret, die of illness or something.
With this king's recklessness and outstanding political wisdom, maybe he is still thinking about what title he should exchange his head for.
Cao Chao shook his head.
An Shi is only sixteen years old, he has just completed the teaching of the classics, he has never been involved in political teaching, he has never done anything, and it is okay to be stupid and cute, but you Chengji is an adult in his thirties, why don't you understand?
It seems that this one has to show how cruel this fight is.
Cao Chao looked at Sima Hui on the side and asked, "Zigui, who is the current lieutenant of the palace?" ”
"That's why Sima Xun joined the army..."
"Oh? Is it close to you? ”
"It's the son of Xuanwen's younger brother, the Marquis of Chengyang Pavilion."
As soon as he said this, Cao Chao understood that he was the son of Sima Yi's younger brother.
Now in this situation, only one of them is not surnamed Sima, and the rest have been replaced by Sima.
Cao Chao smiled and said: "Okay, the palace can be said to be full of talents, I am very pleased!" Zigui, you go and invite this captain and the general of the army to me! ”
"Today, I will set up a family banquet to entertain the sages of the Sima family!"
Sima Hui was stunned for a moment, but he didn't dare to disobey, and hurriedly walked out.
Cao Chao looked at Cheng Ji on the side at this moment, and said with a smile: "General Zhengxi arranged for you talents to take care of me, I don't have to be afraid anymore, I haven't been able to sleep well for a long time, but fortunately I have you." ”
Cao Chao still did not give up his nonsense offensive.
He told a lot of things, and after waiting for a long time, the two of them were late.
Whether it is Sima Xun or Sima Wang, their faces are not very good-looking at the moment.
The two reluctantly met Cao Chao, but they didn't dare to sit down.
Cao Chao got up enthusiastically, pulled them to sit down, and asked them to pour wine for them.
"Hahaha, don't be restrained!"
"I and An Shi are close friends, like brothers! I also have great admiration for you! ”
"In this temple today, there are Tai Lieutenant, the Great General, the General of Zhengxi, and there are four of you in the palace.... There are so many talents in my Sima family! ”
Cao Chao's behavior of recognizing the thief as his father made even Cheng Ji a little unbearable.
But the Sima family around Cao Chao looked more and more uneasy.
Especially when Cao Chao wanted to pour wine for Sima Wang with his own hands, Sima Wang was even more frightened and kept refusing.
Cao Chao took Sima Xun's hand again and asked him to sleep with him tonight, but Sima Xun dared to agree, so he hurriedly refused, so he almost knelt in front of Cao Chao and begged to be spared.
This is certainly not because they are worried about Cao's sexuality.
Well, except for the previous Emperor Liezu, the rest of the Cao family's emperors still don't have men and women.
They are different from Chengji, they can see the situation clearly.
They also apparently knew what it meant that the general was seriously ill.
It's not that they are afraid that Sima Zhao will be jealous of them, everyone is relatives, but the problem is that the emperor shows such love to them, and then they hold the responsibility of guarding the palace, if the emperor is deposed or killed by the general, how will they face the world?
Are you the loyal minister who helped his relatives kill the emperor after gaining the emperor's favor?
They don't dare to face such criticism.
Not every Sima family is shameless.
Especially Sima Fu's vein.
Seeing them panicked, Cheng Ji only felt a little strange.
You are relatives of the general, what are you afraid of? Could it be that the general is still worried that you will unite with the emperor to rebel?
The two fidgeted until the Emperor was drunk, and they were relieved and hurried out.
Cao Chao entangled Cheng Ji and drunkenly held his hand.
"Chengjun, they actually ran away! The sages of the Sima family can't drink me, so it seems that you still have to come! ”
Cheng Ji looked disgusted and did not answer.
Sima Hui hurriedly stepped forward to bring the emperor in.
Cao Chao was very disappointed in his heart, Naigong has made it clear to you to this point, don't you understand? ?
The people of the Sima family don't want to be knives, do you think you have more power than them? Feel like you're closer to the general than they are??
He simply gave up the idea of convincing this reckless man, and directly grabbed Sima Hui's hand and nagged.
"I really envy you brothers."
"General Zhengxi also has a good brother, and he can always ask about things."
"You too, but I don't."
"If I also have a brother who has seen the world, so many things, I can ask.... When he became an emperor, he couldn't show off, haha..."
Cao Chao was babbling nonsense, as if he was drunk.
In fact, he hinted at it in a different way.
Cheng Ji, a stupid big man, obviously can't understand the situation, but his brother may not be like this.
can beg for food under Sima Shi's command, that person is definitely not stupid, as long as he understands what his younger brother is going to do, then he will have a chance to win over his brothers.
As long as this stupid big guy can get in touch with his brother a little....
Of course, Cao Chao wasn't sure if it was useful, and he couldn't put it more bluntly, so it depended on whether the cavalry governor could find out about his brother's situation here in time!
Cheng Ji obviously didn't hear the meaning of Cao Chao's words.
He was also immersed in the joy of his promotion.
Until this day, he had just returned to the mansion to rest, but learned that his brother had come to the door.
"Brother!!"
Facing the eldest brother, Cheng Ji didn't dare to be as indifferent as he did to Cao Chao, and his face was full of smiles.
His father died when he was very young, and it was his brother who pulled him to grow up and raised him to where he is today.
And he did not live up to his brother's high expectations.
In history, he gave his brother a perfect reward and punished his own three clans.
ps: Brothers, bear with me, it's going to be on the shelves in a week, and the old wolf is still messing around, and I won't go out after it's on the shelves, and I'll explode at home every day.
In addition, some readers suggested that the plot is injected with water, I have to explain, the plot has many branches, and the contradictions in various places are different, and these branches must be able to come together in the end and become the key point for the protagonist to turn the tables...
