In the past, when the ministers came to visit, they all entered the door one by one, or chose a leader to enter, and the rest waited outside.

This is because Emperor Wen had an order not to allow the harem to interfere in court affairs.

The ministers still had to abide by these rules on the surface, so they didn't dare to come to meet them collectively.

Externally, it was said that the ministers asked the Queen Mother to take a look, not that the Queen Mother participated in the government.

This is also the reason why the ministers are willing to support the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother's edict works now, that is because the emperor is young, and the ministers can reasonably make the Empress Dowager's edict not work, because Emperor Wen has an edict.

But now, they no longer care about Emperor Wen's edict.

The ministers knelt down in front of the Queen Mother, all looking terrified, some were still crying, and some were cold.

Seeing such a scene, the Queen Mother was immediately frightened.

Not to mention the Queen Mother, Cao Chao was also taken aback at the moment.

What's going on? Aren't these all the bigwigs in Shangshutai??

Xun Yi was the first to raise his head, and said in a hoarse voice: "Queen Mother!" Rebellions have broken out all over the world!! ”

Xun Yi slowly said what happened today, although he did not say what the reason was, but he told Deng Ai in detail what he told in the letter.

Empress Dowager Guo's face was pale, and she sat on the top seat, trembling.

Cao Chao also looked a little sluggish at the moment.

When Xun Yi spoke, Cao Chao concluded that this was Sima Shi's doing.

He is different from the ministers, although Sima Shi has been seriously ill since the court meeting, lying in his house all day, not going out, not even being able to get up, unable to leave the bed, but Cao Chao is still very wary of Sima Shi, and always feels that Sima Shi is secretly doing something.

When he learned of the rebellion in Hebei, the first thing he thought of was that Sima Shi used the previous Wang Yuan incident to make trouble.

After all, in the banner raised by the rebels in Hebei this time, in addition to the injustice of the temple, it is to crusade against Sima Shi and Qing Jun's side.

This is the same as the banner that Wang Yuan and they put up at the beginning.

Then Cao Chao began to use this result to reverse Sima Shi's deployment.

First of all, Sima Shi may have been prepared before the court meeting.

Because Sima Shi knew what Lu Yu wanted to propose a long time ago, but Sima Shi didn't have any response after knowing it, and he didn't even go to Lu Yu to chat.

Shortly after that, the bell would disappear for a while.

To this day, no one knows what Zhong Hui did at that time, but it is said that Zhong Hui went to the Chinese army.

Then, Sima Shi is likely to start deploying after learning about Lu Yu's thoughts, he didn't know that the ministers would be in trouble, but he was still ready to deal with it, and the response preparations at that time may not be so intense, and it was adjusted later.

So this matter is likely to be deployed by the Zhong Society.

Therefore, when Sima Shi is seriously ill, there are many insiders in the palace, and he has not even gone out to meet the minister a few times, he can still continue to prepare for activities and change the response, because he is not the person in charge.

It wasn't until Lu Yu began to work Shangshu that Zhong Hui outside began to adjust his countermeasures and thought of plowing the ground fundamentally.

That's right, Sima Shi's behavior is ploughing.

He directly plowed the entire Hebei Hao clan, even if the survivors were suffering heavy casualties, and in the Central Plains, although there were rebellions, the scale was far less than that of Hebei, but a few big clans were affected, and it was not a plough here, but it was just a blow, killing a strong man or something.

But can Sima Shi accomplish such a thing?

If it is only by relying on the dead soldiers in his hands, it will definitely not work.

But if there are generals from all over the world, it is not easy to say.

In the four expeditions and four towns, He Zeng, Hu Zun, and Wang Chang are all very close to the Sima family.

Needless to say, except for a few, almost all of the rest of the state assassin histories were arranged by the Sima family personally.

Sima Shi's dead soldiers come to take the lead, these generals play auxiliaries, the big clans are strong, and what else can they resist?

You say the slaves and privates of their house?

Well, the fortress of the Lu family was opened from the inside.

Cao Chao's thoughts were a little confused at the moment, but he already knew about Sima Shi's backhand.

Sima Shi jumped out of the temple directly, started in the local area, directly moved the foundation of the family, burned their farmland, killed their clansmen, and turned the family into a family

Ruthless!!

It is difficult for the ministers to even suspect Sima Shi's head so far, they watched Sima Shi become seriously ill and then die, and Sima Shi did not have the ability to set off so many rebellions in Hebei, as for the generals to help Sima Shi, then Lu Yu has only been in charge of Shangshutai for a few days, how long will it take for Sima Shi's order to reach Youzhou?

At this moment, Cao Chao suddenly understood what Sima Shi had asked: Who do you think is better to break Lu Yu or Gao Rou?

"My son! My son!! ”

Empress Dowager Guo's exclamation interrupted Cao Chao's thoughts, and Cao Chao looked at her blankly.

Empress Dowager Guo was in a mess at the moment, a pair of eyes stared at Cao Chao, obviously wanting her son to get an idea, where did she face such a situation, rebellions everywhere, hearing this, she was about to be scared to death, and the ministers seemed to look at her, as if they wanted her to solve this matter.

Although Empress Dowager Guo likes this feeling of being taken seriously, this attention is too much, and Empress Dowager Guo does not dare.

How does she know what to do?

Cao Chao stood up at this moment and frowned, "There is such a big event in the temple, is there no capable person among the ministers?" You actually want my grandmother to solve this matter?! ”

Xun Yi looked at the young emperor and said helplessly: "Your Majesty, Shang Shuling is ill, the general is sick and traitors are everywhere, we"

"That's it!"

Cao Chao interrupted him and said sternly: "Go find Situ Gong!" ”

"Let Situ Gong come forward and put down this rebellion!!"

Xun Yi hurriedly said yes, led the ministers and left here.

Xun Yi originally wanted to fight for power through this matter, but when he learned that the matter had spread to his hometown, he couldn't sit still, now is not the time to fight for power, if he continues to fight, his clan may suffer!

After the ministers left, Empress Dowager Guo looked at Cao Chao, and she almost cried.

"My son"

"Don't be afraid, Mother!"

Cao Chao didn't pretend to be tender at the moment, he knew that the Queen Mother was an extremely insecure person, and he couldn't let her collapse at the moment.

"The ministers just said it seriously, and they want you to pay more attention to it."

"He Zeng is very famous, but because of his filial piety, he has not made any contributions, let alone established any military merits, and the army under his command is mostly served by the children of those families as generals, because there is no war there, they are all in the past."

"He failed to quell the rebellion in time, so he deliberately said more about the number of those traitors, what 100,000 traitors, how could there be 100,000 traitors in Hebei?!"

"If there were really 100,000 thieves, He Zeng would have lost his official position and ran back to Luoyang!"

Although Cao Chao's words were to appease the Queen Mother, he also told the truth, He Zeng has a certain talent in politics, is good at building momentum, and is good at analysis and calculation, but you say that he led troops to fight or something, forget it.

Sima Shi didn't have any good comments on him, Sima Zhao liked him very much, and he didn't praise him for how powerful, but Sima Yan has been touting and praising him in various ways, well, Sima Yan is not surprised.

He believed that Sima Shi could set off a rebellion, but he didn't believe that Sima Shi could set off a rebellion of 100,000 people.

Seeing the relaxation on Cao Chao's face, Empress Dowager Guo finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Is that the case?" ”

"That's right, now it's not the end of the Han Dynasty, the generals of the four towns are all armed with heavy troops, stationed in various places, and there are many soldiers in the local counties, where can these traitors make waves?"

"The ministers are just distracted for a while, these rebellions will soon be quelled, you see, even Deng Ai in Yanzhou can be easily quelled, let alone elsewhere?"

Empress Dowager Guo finally relaxed, she scolded: "Listening to what Xun Yi said, it seems that Great Wei is going to perish!" ”

Cao Chao comforted her a few more words, and waited until Empress Dowager Guo completely calmed down before leaving Zhaoyang Palace.

Walking out of the Zhaoyang Palace, Cao Chao's face became very ugly.

He didn't like Sima Shi's behavior, these powerful clans should indeed be killed, but they shouldn't be used in this way.

I don't know how many lives will be lost in an uprising of this magnitude, and I don't know how many families will be destroyed.

Although he learned about the destruction of the Lu family, Cao Chao did not have any joy in his heart, he thought about how many innocent people in the land of Hebei would suffer from the war.

When Cao Chao returned to the West Hall, there was already a person waiting at the door.

This person is Zhong Hui.

Cao Chao even saw some smugness in his eyes.

"Shiji"

Cao Chao followed him into the hall, and the two sat facing each other.

"It's a great thing for Shi Ji to do."

As soon as the two sat down, Cao Chao couldn't help but speak.

Zhong Hui immediately laughed, "You are worthy of being a holy king, Your Majesty, you are not worried about it now, are you?" After this turmoil, the big clans of the family can be said to have suffered heavy losses, and those who came out of the big clan have basically been broken, and they have lost their foundation, don't they want to benefit the clan? Okay, just kill their people and see who else they can benefit from! ”

"Hahaha, the land, food, and wealth they have stolen from the people through all kinds of despicable means over the years are all gone, but that's it!"

Zhong Hui completely ignored his identity as a top clan, and his words were full of disdain for them.

Cao Chao squinted his eyes, "Shi Ji, do you think that if I can see it, will the ministers in the temple also be able to see it?" ”

Zhong Hui nodded, "When things settle down, they'll definitely realize that something is wrong." ”

"So what did Shiji decide to do?"

"I am Your Majesty's minister, will Your Majesty watch your minister being killed by the great clan?"

"Your Majesty can only suppress the ministers today by joining forces to conquer the western generals!"
