Chapter 189: Before and After Saddle
"Your Majesty"
"Long time no see, are you okay?"
Cao Chao sat in the west hall, his face was very calm.
And the three people of the Guo family sat in front of him, with different expressions.
Guo Li's face was pale, he looked seriously ill, and sat weakly in front of Cao Chao, without saying a word, while Guo Zhi on the side had a gentle smile on his face, and his eyes were so kind when he looked at Cao Chao.
Guo Jian was a little embarrassed, sat on the other side, and looked at Cao Chao and smirked.
Looking at the three people in front of him, Cao Chao's face was very calm.
"Your Majesty, when I first supported you, the old man knew that Your Majesty would definitely be able to turn the tide and save the society from fire and water! That Sima Shi is not a son of man, and he did not do what Xuanwen Gong explained, and he became more and more arrogant, and even looked down on His Majesty! ”
"We have been dissatisfied with Sima Shi for a long time, and we want to assist Your Majesty and help Sheji!"
"God bless me Dawei, today the sages get what they want, Sima Shi, the old thief, will die!"
"Although Your Majesty is young, his merits are already far beyond those of the Martyrs, which is really admirable."
Guo Zhi looked at Cao Chao eagerly, these shameless words came as soon as he opened his mouth.
Cao Chao sneered in his heart.
The original Guo family has always been centered on Guo De, Guo De has become the general of the town army all the way, and his son Guo Xi has become the general of the auxiliary country.
And without him, the Guo family would only have three fools left.
Among these three fools, don't look at Guo Li as the most arrogant and arrogant, in fact, Guo Zhi is the worst.
When Sima Shi was about to abolish the matter, Guo Zhi was almost crazy, running forward and backward for him, and when the Queen Mother was dissatisfied, he even helped Sima Shi loudly reprimand the Queen Mother, not allowing the Queen Mother to interfere.
There is very little limit to this person.
Cao Chao did not reply.
And Guo Zhi didn't feel embarrassed, and looked directly at Guo Jian on the side.
Guo Jian hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "Your Majesty, we did do some wrong things in the past, please forgive me."
"Uncle, how dare you say anything forgive?"
"If it weren't for you, how could I be sitting here?"
Cao Chao's attitude towards Guo Jian has become different again, unlike Guo Li and Guo Zhi, the two old guys, Guo Jian can barely be used, although his ability is a mess, but there are no useless people in the world, only kings who can't use people.
Different people in different positions can often exert amazing effects.
Just like Guo Jian, although he won't succeed, he will lose.
It is not easy to find such a talent from a big family.
Hearing Cao Chao's title, Guo Jian became even more uneasy.
Cao Chao looked at Guo Li at this time, "But why did General Xuande come?" ”
Guo Li's expression was extremely complicated.
After being reprimanded by his own son, Guo Li was almost angry to death, and after waking up after being rescued, this person let go of the pride of the so-called Xiping Guo family.
There are many families in the world, but the same family will be divided into high and low.
Among them, there are old families like Xun Yi, rising families like Wang Xiang, new families like Chen Qian and Biqiu Jian, lonely families like Guo Li and Zhang Hua, and small families like Wei Shu Wang Jing who are ready to start transforming from Haoqiang.
Of course, although the Guo family is lonely, it is still much better than Zhang Hua.
Zhang Huadu was lonely to the point of herding sheep to others, while Guo Jiaming was still a relative of the court.
But in fact, the Guo family's heritage and strength are completely based on the queen mother, if they don't have the identity of their relatives, they are nothing.
Because of the previous rebellion, they lost their inheritance, so they chose Guo Zhi to continue to study the classics, inherit the scholarship, and build the foundation.
But to this point, Guo Li has never been able to see this fact clearly, and always feels that his old family can be on an equal footing with Xun Yang Zhong and Chen Sima, so he has repeatedly dug his own grave.
He was probably woken up by his son's scolding and realized that the Guo family had fallen to the point where the current Guo family had fallen.
He lowered his head and said softly, "The old minister is here to ask His Majesty for his guilt." ”
"Huh? What is your sin? ”
Cao Chao's face was dazed.
Guo Li gritted his teeth, endured the grief and indignation in his heart, and said: "The minister doesn't understand right and wrong, he mistakenly believed in Sima Shi, he was rude to the Queen Mother, and he despised His Majesty, which is a great crime, and I hope Your Majesty can forgive me."
Cao Chao shook his head, "I am already young, I am not a child, if you really feel that you are at fault, why don't you go to the Queen Mother to confess, but you want to find me?" ”
Guo Li was speechless, Guo Jian added: "I went to find it, the Queen Mother didn't see it, Guo Laogou directly blew us away, and refused to bring us a message."
Cao Chao asked again: "No, I don't see General Xuande, and I shouldn't see General Protector, you are the commander of the Chinese army."
Guo Zhi said with some embarrassment: "I have been removed"
Cao Chao almost couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Let you go crazy again, now you can't be mad?
If you don't have the Queen Mother, what kind of thing are you?
Originally, Sima Shi still needed to use you to kill me, but now that he is too busy to take care of himself and has given up the idea of killing me, what use do you have?
Cao Chao shook his head, and then said: "After all, they are people of the same clan, so let's do it, I will intercede with the Queen Mother, but whether the Queen Mother will listen to me, I dare not guarantee it." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty! ”
Guo Zhi hurriedly bowed to Cao Chao, and said: "In the future, the Guo family will definitely use you to saddle the horse and never live up to your trust."
Cao Chao replied with a smile, and finally said: "Then you can go back first, uncle, don't go, I have something to tell you." ”
The two people glanced at Guo Jian, didn't say anything, and left here in a gloomy manner.
Guo Jian only opened his mouth at this time and said: "Your Majesty, in fact, I don't have the face to ask you for help again, but the clan is in danger, I just don't care about them, and I have to care about my own children."
"Uncle, don't say much."
"These things, I understand that since I came to the palace, only my uncle has regarded me as his own son, uncle, don't worry, I can't do General Xuande's affairs, and I will definitely beg the Queen Mother to let her see you."
Guo Jian was really moved at the moment.
Looking at the pro-Jews in front of him, who was completely unrelated to him, Guo Jian's expression became extremely sincere.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Cao Chao exchanged pleasantries with him for a moment before sending him away.
When he left, Cao Chao found that Gao Dan had been observing the situation here.
Cao Chao showed a kind smile at him, Gao Dan was stunned for a moment, and then replied with a more embarrassing smile.
Gao Dan explained the matter here to the deputy general, and then hurried towards his mansion.
Unlike Lu Yu's court-like situation, Gao Rou is relatively clean here, and there are no ministers coming.
The routes of the two sides are different, which is also normal.
Gao Situ was sitting in the study, and the people arranged by Sima Shi had already been driven out by him.
Gao Situ showed his heroism and once again became the upright "warrior" he was at the beginning.
"Father!"
Gao Dan frowned, and Gao Rou glanced at him, "Why are you so flustered?" Didn't you let you guard the Zhaoyang Palace? Why did it come out again? ”
"The people of the Guo family failed to see the Queen Mother, so they went to find the emperor!"
"They talked for a long time and even bowed to the emperor several times"
Gao Dan hurriedly told Gao Rou what had just happened.
Gao Rou frowned.
He used to get along very well with the Queen Mother, and almost became an important minister of the Queen Mother, but because he said a few words to the Emperor in front of the Queen Mother that day, it was very unpleasant.
Although the Queen Mother would still summon him now, Gao Rou did not dare to mention anything about the emperor anymore.
Not long ago, Gao Dan sent someone to inform the Guo family to come to find the Queen Mother, Gao Rou didn't care, thinking that the Queen Mother would not see them, but now that they knew that they had gone to find the emperor again, Gao Rou was a little panicked.
The emperor's connection with the queen mother is obviously closer than his own, if Lu Yu and the Guo family take advantage of this relationship, won't their ideas be in vain?
Gao Rou has already begun to pave the way for her future.
As soon as Sima Shi died, he would let the Queen Mother canonize himself as a general, and rightfully become the leader of the ministers, succeeding Sima Shi and becoming the new leader of the world.
But now, Gao Rou thought that she had paid enough attention to His Majesty, but she didn't expect that it was still not enough.
There is this person in the palace, which is a little unfavorable to himself, maybe one day he will instigate the queen mother to let her no longer be close to him.
Gao Dan obviously also took these into account, he frowned, and said worriedly: "These people from the Guo family, if they rely on the emperor to get in touch with the Queen Mother again, will the Queen Mother appoint people from my family first in the future?" ”
"Father, what should the little emperor do when he opposes us everywhere?"
"Shut up!"
"An dare to be rude to His Majesty?"
Gao Rou asked solemnly, "Do you want to be Sima Zhao?!" ”
Gao Dan hurriedly lowered his head, "I'm not"
Gao Rou immediately said: "Your Majesty is still young, you still have to find a way to let him study hard, and don't get involved in these things anymore." ”
"I will figure out how to deal with this matter myself, but you remember for me that you are not allowed to be rude to Your Majesty in the future, and you are not allowed to say such things at any time! We want to govern the Great Wei and be the head of the ministers, not to control the temple and do usurpation! ”
Gao Dan lowered his head and hurriedly received his order.
Gao Rou waved his hand and let his son leave, he didn't care too much about this matter, although the emperor was powerful, but the queen mother was too bad. The relationship between the emperor and the queen mother is not as close as outsiders think, and with the queen mother here, there is no need to worry about the emperor doing bad things.
He didn't need to make a move on him at all, he only needed a few words to make the Queen Mother dare not get close to the emperor anymore and isolate him from the Queen Mother again.
Now I have a headache with that Lu Yu.
Lu Yu took advantage of Sima Shi's inability to govern the government, so he took the initiative to deal with the affairs of Shangshutai with the qualifications of Shangshu's servant.
Is the next step to seize Shang Shuling's position?
Let's take another three public records of Shangshu, and then there will be nothing to do in the temple.
Hmph, I don't know, in charge of Shangshutai, you still need an edict, if the edict is under my jurisdiction, what is the use of you infiltrating deeply?
