Chapter 220: I Refuse
"Shiji."
"Are you for the Sima family, for me, or for yourself?"
Cao Chao suddenly asked.
A eunuch brought tea for the two of them and placed it in front of them, Zhong Hui did not rush to answer the emperor's question, but ate tea first.
He took a sip and seemed to enjoy it.
"Your Majesty, what's the difference?"
Zhong Hui looked at Cao Chao, and he said seriously: "Is there any difference between these three?" ”
"Whether it is Your Majesty, or Sima Zhao, or Weichen, our interests are the same, we all want to help Sheji, govern the Great Wei Jiangshan, curb the ministers, and protect the country from their poison."
"Since the goal is the same, why is Your Majesty so subdivided?"
Cao Chao laughed, and he shook his head.
"No, no, who says the goal is the same?"
The smile on Zhong Hui's face froze a little.
"Could it be that Your Majesty is unwilling to govern the Great Wei Jiangshan well?"
He really couldn't see any reason for the emperor to refuse, in the current situation, what was the personal grudge between the emperor and the Sima family?
Besides, you can become the emperor, isn't it because of the Sima family? The Sima family is also polite to you, you are friendly with Sima Yan, Sima Wang and others, Sima Shi is also dead, and now they are joining forces to deal with the main enemy, what's the problem?
Do you want to despise the temple because of personal grudges??
Zhong Hui's face suddenly became solemn.
If Cao Chao is really like this, then he is not a saint king worthy of assistance.
Cao Chao watched his face change, and he could roughly guess his inner thoughts, which made Cao Chao feel incredible, he was quite powerful, and he could actually see the thoughts of such abnormal people.
Cao Chao asked, "What is Shiji's ambition?" ”
"Assist the Holy King, Kuang Fu Sheji."
"What about Your Majesty?"
"Kuang Fu Sheji, give peace to the people."
Zhong Hui did not speak, the meaning is very clear, we are like-minded people.
Cao Chao said at this moment: "Shi Ji, although I have the same thoughts, I think that the prosperous era in my heart may be a little different from the prosperous era that Sima Zhao thinks. ”
"Oh?"
"What difference can the prosperous world make?"
"It's a big difference."
Cao Chao said a word, looked at Zhang Hua and Wei Shu, the two nodded, and walked to the door to watch.
Cao Chao looked at Zhong Hui at this time, "Let's talk about my old father-in-law's plan first." ”
"He can be regarded as heartbroken for the Sima family, and he can't wait to chew the rice and feed it to the clan."
"Let me think about it, the assassins in these places, the Taishou, the generals, I'm afraid they have all been used, right?"
"Biqiu-kun left in a hurry, thinking that he was the general of Zhendong who told me about the matter here? Although General Zhendong is in Huainan, his military exploits are all from Hebei, and there are many old departments in Hebei, so he participated in this matter, right? ”
"Deng Ai, Wang Ji doesn't need to say much, they will definitely implement the general's order."
"Deng Ai is in Yanzhou, which is the closest to Luoyang, is he responsible for docking with the temple in time? Including this time, intimidating the ministers, clearly telling the ministers that if there is no general in the temple, then the turmoil in various places will continue, and more big clans will be implicated? ”
"Hu Zun, Shi Bao, He Zeng, these three are all cronies of the general"
Zhong Hui couldn't help but interrupt Cao Chao, "Your Majesty is wrong, Hu Zun is involved, after all, although he is a big clan, he is a big clan, he is not strong in scripture, and he is discriminated against by the Henan clan, even if he is fixed, he will not get a high grade, so he will participate." ”
"Shi Bao also participated, but his task was to keep an eye on Hu Zun, the general knew Hu Zun's character, for fear that he would get out of control, so let Shi Bao keep an eye on it, and if necessary, he could contain it."
"He Zeng didn't participate."
Zhong Hui laughed, "I kicked him out of the scheme." ”
"Oh? Why? ”
"Because I don't like this guy."
"Besides, when such a big event happens in Hebei, there must be a diligent and diligent person who does his best to get rid of thieves, how can he come to be this great loyal minister, he should thank me."
"In Hebei, the person who is really involved in this matter is Chen Ben."
"I have a good relationship with him, I personally wrote all the letters sent to him, and when he saw the letters of these great generals, he agreed."
Cao Chao was not disappointed, he nodded, "I really don't know this." ”
Zhong Hui couldn't help but praise: "Your Majesty has never seen these people, sitting in the inner room, you can think of so many things, really Holy King, if you have the assistance of your ministers, what is Your Majesty afraid of?" The minister is His Majesty's Marquis! Your Majesty is like a fish in water! ”
Zhong Hui started by blowing Cao Chao, but then he began to blow himself.
It has always been the king who says these things to the minister, and it is the first time that Cao Chao has heard a minister say this to the king.
However, no matter how outrageous things are, it will be very reasonable to put them on Zhong Hui.
For example, this time to directly break through the family and cut off the roots of the family, this matter will be a little out of tune with Sima Shi, I think he is too radical, but if the person who runs it is Zhong Hui, oh, then it will be fine.
As for Zhong Hui's comparison of himself to Zhang Liang and Xiao He, he is really not talking nonsense.
In history, he began to give advice to Sima Zhao, and everyone in the world called him Zhang Liang in the world
can make those who dislike him pinch their noses and shout Zhang Liang, which shows the fierceness of this person.
Maybe Zhong Hui is indeed not wrong, the combination of Sima Shi and Zhong Hui is also a very powerful combination in the world, if Sima Shi's life is longer, maybe things will be completely different.
Cao Chao ignored this narcissistic guy and continued: "So the general broke with Sima Fu in advance and asked Sima Fu to follow the ministers, just for this day. ”
"At the beginning, Lu Yu forced the general to make concessions by causing civil unrest, and the general directly caused the civil unrest and forced the ministers to make concessions in the name of pacification."
"In this way, it is still the general who is more skilled, oh no, it is Zhong Shiji's skilled."
Cao Chao said again: "Lu Yu's clan is now traumatized and discredited, it would be good to be able to save his life, his political career is ruined, as for Gao Rou, Shangshutai has now become a mess, I don't know if he has the confidence to take it Besides, Gao Rou has never done anything in Shangshutai." ”
"Sima Fu has become a good candidate at this time, and the ministers may launch this person to transition and here with the general, Deng Ai, Wang Ji, Hu Zun and others only recognize Sima Zhao, right?"
"He also specially asked you to come to me, just so that I could help Sima Zhao and Sima Fu and let them get to this position."
Cao Chao sighed with emotion: "My father-in-law is really lucky, he knows that Sima Zhao can't take over, so he uses this method to divide Shang Shuling and the general into two, and divide the clan into two and inherit them separately." ”
"If I have the surname Sima, I have to knock a few to him."
Zhong Hui enjoyed it very much, listening to Cao Chao's narration, he was even more fluttering.
"Your Majesty, since you have seen it, you should also understand that this is not harmful to you, join forces."
"Take Sima Fu as the Shang Shu Ling, and Sima Zhao as the general."
"Let's stabilize the situation in the world first."
"The next thing is for the two of them to come forward to fight, and divide these families through geography, family rank, and scriptures."
"Nowadays, many families have been damaged, and this will give rise to new disputes over the scriptures, and this is an opportunity that we cannot miss."
"As long as the power and products of scripture are returned to the temple for use, the gate valve clan is the dog raised by the temple."
"We can completely subdue them, use them for three years to rectify the country, and set out to conquer Shu in the fourth year"
Zhong Hui had a very clear plan in his mind.
Maybe Sima Shi discussed with Zhong Hui before he died?
Cao Chao narrowed his eyes, "So, Shi Ji wants to deal with these big clans through scriptures?" ”
"This is the foundation of the family, they have a monopoly on knowledge, and if they want to dig out their roots, they must let more poor families get the opportunity to study and govern the scriptures."
"We must use the battle of scriptures and learning to make them fight!"
"Your Majesty doesn't have to worry, these gate valve clans are not worth mentioning in the eyes of the ministers."
Zhong Hui's tone seemed to be coaxing the child, what he meant by this was to tell Cao Chao, I am ready for everything, you can nod your head, I will take you to lie down and win, don't know how to lift.
Cao Chao's eyes were exceptionally bright.
This optimal solution is only the optimal solution in the eyes of Sima Shi.
Sima Shi thought of many things.
So why don't you want to think about whether you will follow his plan?
Looking at the confident Zhong Hui in front of him, Cao Chao did not directly reject him.
For this guy, be tactful.
"Shi Ji, let's go back to the previous topic, the difference between prosperous times."
There was a hint of memory in Cao Chao's eyes.
"When I was very young, I had just arrived in Yuancheng, I was in the mansion at that time, I couldn't go out, and I heard people talk about life outside, and they all said that Hebei was prosperous, all industries were prosperous, and the people were rich, which was really a happy land."
"I believe it."
"But when I went out and played around in person, I realized that what I said about the prosperous world was not the same as what others said."
"Guo Jun told me that the temple practiced benevolent government, summoned the people to reclaim the farmland, and guarded the border in various places to settle the people, and he did not tell me that the people who followed the temple to reclaim the farmland had their harvest owned by the temple, and the difference between them and the tenants outside was only the difference in the people they served."
"The temple only gives them a certain amount of food according to the head, saying that it is a benevolent government to exempt them from taxes, but isn't this just hiring people to farm for themselves? Without the order of the temple, they can't even sow seeds?! ”
"I saw the corpses of abandoned babies piled up on the roads of that prosperous era, I saw the old people in the fields fall to the ground one by one and never get up again, I saw the merchants gathered and cry about the looting of the officials along the road, I saw that the craftsmen were always called by the government to make instruments for free, and their families were ruined."
"I don't know what Sima Shi thinks, anyway, the prosperous world in my eyes is not like this."
"Everyone can eat, they can wear, the elderly can be taken care of, and the children can grow up healthy."
"You don't have to be afraid of foreign enemies, you don't have to be bullied."
"Fang is the prosperous world I want!"
"Therefore, I will not join forces with them!"
