"Your Majesty, let Sima San ride up!"

"Sima Sanqi has been kneeling in the ice and snow for three days and three nights, and his behavior of not eating or drinking is really touching, and the slave and maid can't bear it."

"Please be gracious and let him get up!"

"The temple has such virtue, it really shouldn't hurt our guilt like this!"

Xu's husband persuaded the emperor with a sad face.

In the past three days, Cao Chao has been very indifferent and doesn't care about Sima Yan outside at all, and many people have come to persuade him during this period.

From Sima Xun, to Sima Hui, to the guard Chengji, there are many people who come to persuade him, but without exception, these people are all bloody.

These people were scolded, but their hearts were happy.

was scolded by the emperor like this once, but he can be famous all over the world.

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are all helping Sima Yan to build momentum, and these people can get a good reputation even if they just show their faces.

Even Na Chengji was standing at the door smirking at the moment, in a good mood.

When Cao Chao ordered him to persuade him before, Cheng Ji was still a little confused, and after being scolded by Cao Chao, he was already dissatisfied in his heart.

But when he found that the people around him instantly changed their attitude towards him, and even some scholars took the initiative to visit him and socialize with him, Cheng Jile went crazy.

He never dreamed that he would have such a day.

Because of his low background, the officials all relied on his brother's military exploits, and Cheng Ji could not blend into the high-end scholar circle at all.

But at this moment, those high-ranking scholars on weekdays will also salute when they see him and call him a king.

Cheng Ji still had to endure the excitement in his heart, according to what the emperor taught, wiped away his non-existent tears, told that he couldn't help Sima Yan, and poured out his guilt.

The scholars became more enthusiastic about him and would take his hand to comfort him.

Even his brother benefited from this incident, and he wrote a letter praising his younger brother fiercely, saying that he would be proud of his brother's affairs.

Chengji has lived for more than 30 years, and this is the first time he has been praised by his brother so much, and it is also the first time that he has been courteous by so many people.

He stood at the door of the temple, and the people were almost floating.

Cao Chao listened to the persuasion of the eunuch in front of him, and his face was very angry.

He hesitated for a long time, and then said helplessly: "Alas, let An Shi come in!" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!!"

As everyone spoke, someone immediately rushed out of the West Hall.

Cao Chao sat in the West Hall and waited, and after waiting for a long time, Sima Yan couldn't walk from outside the Taiji Hall to the West Hall, didn't this guy come to the palace in advance? Are you coming from the General's Palace?

I don't know how long I waited, Sima Yan finally walked into the West Hall.

He was wearing obscene clothes, shivering from the cold, his cheeks were red, his mouth was misty, and he walked tremblingly in front of Cao Chao, and hurriedly bowed to see him.

"Your Majesty!!"

"Well, get up."

Cao Chao took the initiative to help him up, and asked helplessly: "Why are you doing this?" ”

"The minister is His Majesty's permanent attendant, and he should serve on His Majesty's left and right, and advise His Majesty to do the government of benevolence and righteousness.

"Nexperia."

Cao Chao's eyes were full of emotion, and he hurriedly took off his coat and draped it on Sima Yan's body.

"I know, even the eunuchs around me are moved by your actions, how can I not know your intentions? In the future, you must be attentive to national affairs, and you can rest assured. ”

The two looked at each other affectionately, and the people around them were all moved.

Cao Chao looked at everyone at this time, "Go out and tell everyone that I have promised An Shi!" Let them not worry! ”

"Get out, all of you! I want to discuss state affairs with Nexperia! ”

Then the people saluted and said yes, and departed one after another.

Cao Chao and Sima Yan waited quietly for them to leave, and when Xu's husband closed the door, Cao Chao tore off his coat from Sima Yan and hurriedly wrapped it around himself.

"I'm Frozen to Death"

"I'm also cold, Your Majesty, let me drape for a while, I'm wearing dirty clothes all the way from the Taiji Hall all the way here"

"There's a stove over there! Bake it yourself! ”

After getting along for so long, Cao Chao has become more and more unkind to Sima Yan, and he has long lost the "gentleness" and "love" he had at the beginning.

took such care of him at the beginning, but now he has to bully him from time to time.

But Sima Yan didn't feel anything wrong, since he was a child, no one had ever been so casual and close to him, even Zhuge Liang had never been so intimate.

Sima Yan sat in front of the fire and smiled like Cheng Ji.

"Hahaha, Your Majesty's clever plan!"

"I'm really famous all over the world this time, maybe I can really be the first person in the Great Wei!"

"Your Majesty doesn't know, these days, the whole temple is big"

"The ministers are all inviting names for you, they are all touting, and they are all building momentum for you, right?"

Sima Yan was stunned, "Your Majesty knows?" ”

Cao Chao asked solemnly, "An Shi, why do you think they did this?" ”

"Is it because we're so well disguised?"

"Heh, do you think they would believe that a person is fine for three days and three nights on his knees naked in the ice and snow?"

Sima Yan scratched his head, "That's probably because I'm afraid of my father's power." ”

"An Shi, they are afraid, but they are not afraid of your father, but they are afraid of your younger brother."

"What does that mean?"

Cao Chao said calmly: "They want you to inherit your father's position, but this is not because they believe in your talent, but because they believe that you have no talent, if they want to compete for interests, they need a weak general, your brother is too good."

Sima Yan's face turned red instantly, even redder than before.

"Them"

"Anshi, that's why I said, fame is not the most important thing, you have to see the essence of these people clearly, and never be deceived by them, tell me, what is it like to kneel naked in the snow?"

"It feels like I'm going to die"

"An Shi, the feeling you have experienced, is the feeling of the people in the world at this moment, this Great Wei world, I don't know how many people, they can't afford to wear clothes, have no houses, hungry, huddled in the ice and snow, begging for God, but these ministers in the temple, who cares about this?"

Sima Yan's eyes were a little dazed, "How could it be, today is a prosperous age"

"Whether it's a prosperous age or not, it doesn't matter what they said, you have to go and see it for yourself."

"If you have the opportunity, you can take a few henchmen and drive to those suburban villages to have a look, and when you go, you will know if this is a prosperous era."

Sima Yan nodded thoughtfully.

Cao Chao smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Okay, let's not talk about that, we did a good job this time, and in the next period of time, you will be seriously ill, you know?" You have been kneeling for three days, and during this time, the celebrities of the whole Luoyang will come to visit you. ”

"If you want to be the first celebrity of the Great Wei, you have to have a good relationship with these people, you have to praise them more, and everyone praises each other in order to become a celebrity."

"When the time comes, you tell them that the reason why the emperor is close to the eunuchs is because there are no sages like you around, and then ask them to come to the East Hall, and then we will set up a fixed program in the East Hall, and in a few days we will gather a group of celebrities to come, everyone will drink wine and eat meat, comment on the world's celebrities or something, so that it won't be long before your fame can surpass those big celebrities."

Sima Yan hurriedly agreed to him.

At Cao Chao's suggestion, Sima Yan limped out of the West Hall, was supported by several people into the carriage, and left here.

Soon after Sima Yan left, Cheng Ji walked into the hall.

Cao Chao didn't care more and more about the two Yellow Gate officials who were spying on him.

Jia Chong will stare at the emperor with all his might, recording Cao Chao's words and deeds, although Jia Chong is a villain, but his villain's approach, it is really a day to overcome Cao Chao, in his time, although he can regularly send good fortune to the general, but Cao Chao is completely unable to talk freely with his subordinates, what he says today, will appear in front of Jia Chong tomorrow.

And Jia Chong will not prevaricate, he will definitely read it carefully and analyze it calmly.

This kind of opponent who does not talk about martial arts is Cao Chao's great enemy, and today's Zhong Hui is more difficult than Jia Chong, and the danger index is far above Jia Chong, but the problem is that his routines are more gentlemanly, or in other words, he disdains to use too low-end means.

He couldn't pull down his identity to stare at Cao Chao's words and deeds.

This gave Cao Chao a good opportunity.

Cheng Ji was standing beside Cao Chao at the moment, with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty!! Today I just experienced the taste of being a human being!! ”

"Oh?"

"When Your Majesty scolded me, I was still a little dissatisfied in my heart, and I felt that Your Majesty despised me now, and I realized that I was wrong to blame Your Majesty!"

"Hahaha, in the past few days, more and more scholars have come to see me, and my brother has written to praise me"

"Your Majesty, I really never thought that I should have followed you earlier, that dog Sima Zhao, I have been with him for nearly ten years, but I have never reaped any benefits, and in his mansion, no one can look up to me, and they will call me as a dog!"

"Your Majesty!! From now on, I will do whatever you ask me to do! ”

Cheng Ji was very excited.

Cao Chao laughed, "Chengjun, what is this?" This is just the beginning, there will be many such opportunities in the future, I said at the beginning, in the future, among the three princes, there will be a place for you. ”

"It's just that the enemy is still strong at the moment, and you need to be patient."

Cheng Ji said very simply: "Your Majesty, the minister is a rough man, and he doesn't know any strategy, all he knows is to kill people, in the future, if you ask me to kill whoever I want, I will kill whoever I want!" ”

"Good!! To achieve great things is to need a warrior like Chengjun!! ”

At the same time, Sima Yan also returned to his house and appeared in front of Sima Zhao.

Sima Zhao looked at his son with great satisfaction, and let him sit on his left hand side for the first time.

"Not bad!"

"Very good!"

"My son has such a reputation!!"

Sima Yan was stunned for a moment, and replied sluggishly: "Father, fame is not the most important thing, it is just a means, and such things cannot be done often to see through the essence of those celebrities." ”

Sima Zhao's eyes widened, and he looked at Sima Yan suspiciously, "Who taught you this?" ”

"It was taught by His Majesty!"

"Ah???h
