Chapter 227: A New Battlefield
What nonsense are you talking about?!
I'm here to give you peace of mind to fight them!!
What am I fighting with them? If you can fight, do you still need to come forward?
However, Wang Xiang did not panic.
Those people are going to make it not me, it's you.
Wang Xiang has also been in contact with his protΓ©gΓ© for a while, and he knows very well that his disciples are not as simple as they seem.
Anyway, I'm not in a hurry, let them do things, and I don't have to deal with these people through you, just see who is in a hurry in the end.
Looking at Wang Xiang's calm face, Cao Chao directly picked up the book and prepared to study, but he really didn't take what Wang Xiang said to heart at all.
Wang Xiang's mood was very bad.
His plan seems to have failed again, and the emperor seems to have no intention of making a move at all, is this a complete abandonment?
But is the emperor the kind of person who gives up easily?
Wang Xiang couldn't see anything from the face of this proud protΓ©gΓ©, and in the end he could only leave here disappointed.
When he left, Zhang Hua walked into the East Hall.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
Cao Chao shook his head, "What else can happen, the general is gone, and the ministers are ready to attack me." β
"So fast?"
Zhang Hua was a little surprised, he also didn't expect the ministers to be so fast.
Cao Chao said with a smile: "No wonder the general decided that I would join forces with Sima Zhao." β
"I think he has seen the true colors of these ministers a long time ago, and knows their greed and cruelty, so he will think that I will join forces with Sima Zhao to fight the enemy."
Zhang Hua frowned.
The current situation is very unfavorable for Cao Chao, when the ministers are united, the entire temple is their final say.
If there is no preparation to deal with it, then soon, Cao Chao will be imprisoned again, and this time the strength will definitely be stronger than during the period of the Great General.
They have no fear at all, and once they are imprisoned and cut off from the outside world, things will go in a very terrible direction.
Cao Chao looked at Zhang Hua, "Mao Xian, you have to leave as soon as possible." β
"What does Your Majesty mean?"
"If they want to deal with me, the first thing is to remove you, once they find that they can't win you over, then you will be kicked out of Luoyang, and you may never see each other again."
"So, I'm going to have to change your position when they're not moving."
Zhang Hua's face was extremely ugly.
The emperor of Great Wei will be bullied by his ministers to such an extent!
"Mao Xian, don't be angry, it's useless to be angry at the moment, think about it, where are you going now?"
Zhang Hua said seriously: "You don't have to go anywhere. β
Cao Chao was stunned, "Don't be stubborn"
"Your Majesty, after the incident of Shangshutai, I don't know how many eyes will be staring here, if I leave now, then they will think that you arranged for me to do things, and I will not end up well, rather than this, it is better to stay by your side and continue to serve."
"The minister thinks that Huangmen Lang should not be driven away at this moment, and it should be more Huangmen Shilang."
Hearing this, Cao Chao was a little helpless.
He had summoned Huabiao earlier, wanting to use his son as the Yellow Gate Commander.
It's a pity that Hua Hui didn't come, according to Hua Hui, he wouldn't give up his father-in-law at such a time.
Huabiao was also helpless and asked the emperor for forgiveness.
Cao Chao asked, "Then who should be called?" β
"Sima Yan, Wang Sui, Hu Fen, He Shao, Chen Zhi."
When Zhang Hua said these names, Cao Chao burst out laughing.
Sima Yan doesn't need to say much, that Wang Sui is the son of Wang Su, Hu Fen is the son of Hu Zun, He Shao is the son of He Zeng, and Chen Zhi is the younger brother of Chen Ben and Chen Qian.
"Zhang Jun, An Shi is willing to come, so the rest of the people, will they be willing to come to my side at this time?"
Zhang Hua said seriously: "Your Majesty, if you don't issue an edict, how do you know if they are willing to come?" β
"I don't know if they want to be ministers, but the ministers probably hope that the heirs of these generals can stay in Luoyang."
Cao Chao glanced at Zhang Hua again, "It's really worthy of being my stay!" β
"Okay, that's it."
"I'm not even afraid of Sima Shi, can I still be afraid of them?"
"Mother is here, how's that?"
Sima Yan smiled and helped Wang Yuanji get out of the carriage and showed her the palace in front of her.
Sima You also got out of the car at this moment and stood behind his mother.
Wang Yuanji nodded, "Okay, not bad." β
They then walked towards the Shiqian Palace, and Sima Yu had already learned the news that they were coming, and waited with Guo Ping.
Wang Yuanji was not familiar with Sima Yu, but at this moment he showed the gentlest smile, "These days, I'm tired of you, this kid always runs to you, saying that he misses his sister"
Sima Yu glanced at Sima You, and she didn't dislike this younger brother.
They walked into the palace, and as soon as they sat down, Sima Yan said, "Mother, wait here, I'll go and go back." β
Sima You and Guo Ping mixed together again, Wang Yuanji smiled and watched them play, and asked about Sima Yu's life.
Now that she has her son by her side, and there is no persecution from the clan, Sima Yu's life is also very comfortable.
Sima Yu didn't know why Wang Yuanji suddenly came to her, she was not a person who was good at talking to others, her attitude was not too close, but Wang Yuanji was eloquent, and she had always taken the initiative to guide the topic, and there was no cold scene.
"Your Majesty!!"
Sima Yan soon came to the Taiji Palace.
As soon as Cao Chao walked out, he grabbed his hand and dragged him in the direction of the Shiqian Palace.
"Go, go, my mother is here, and she is in the Shiqian Palace!"
"Huh??"
"What is she doing in the palace?"
"Didn't Your Majesty ask me to call her?"
"I'm asking you to tell her that I want to meet her"
"yes, how can we meet if we don't come in?"
Cao Chao took a deep breath and didn't explain any more, so he was pulled all the way to the Shiqian Hall by Sima Yan.
"Father!"
Guo Ping was naturally very happy when he saw Cao Chao coming, and hurriedly stepped forward.
Cao Chao pinched his face, and then saluted Wang Yuanji.
Wang Yuanji smiled and nodded.
Sima Yu understood Wang Yuanji's intention, she hurriedly got up and said to the two children: "Go, I'll get you some food." β
Sima Yan took away the two little guys, and Cao Chao sat in front of Wang Yuanji, and Sima Yan sat beside him.
"Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you're still fine?"
"I'm okay, is my wife okay?"
The two exchanged pleasantries, and Wang Yuanji asked, "An Shi said that His Majesty has something urgent to see me, I don't know what the matter is?" β
Cao Chao kept a straight face, and in the future, he could no longer let Sima Yan come to pass a message to him.
"I have something important to discuss with you."
"I want Zhong Shiji to be Zongzheng."
Wang Yuanji frowned, "If it is a major event in the temple, Your Majesty should go to the ministers, or find General Wei, why should you find me?" β
Cao Chao scratched his head, "Where do you dare to see General Wei now?" β
"You don't know, my mother doesn't allow me to see him, and my mother is prejudiced against General Wei because of the general."
"So, you want to talk to General Wei through me? Why bother? Isn't there an Nexperia? β
Cao Chao said seriously: "Since Madam asked Ayu to come to the palace, she naturally understands why I am looking for you." β
"The prince went home to recuperate before, the prince's body has always been strong, and now he should have recovered a lot, I think that maybe the temple should summon the prince back."
Wang Yuanji's face was very calm.
"Since Your Majesty is unwilling to join forces with General Wei, why do you bother to talk about these things?"
"Madam, I have always been a clear distinction between public and private."
"What happened in this temple does not affect our relationship, we are a family."
Sima Yan listened to the conversation between these two people and didn't understand what they were talking about at all.
Wang Yuanji chuckled, "Your Majesty's idea is not bad. β
Wang Yuanji was very angry in her heart, Cao Chao's behavior was undoubtedly a prostitution.
He doesn't ally with Sima Zhao politically, but in private he still wants Sima Zhao to help him, what is this?
Should the family help you?
Besides, this family, you see whether General Wei recognizes it or not.
Cao Chao said: "The ministers are discussing major events today, and they are in Shangshutai. β
"Madame knows what that means."
"Can General Wei participate in the court meeting, and can he also participate in the Shangshutai meeting?"
"Now even if we don't have the name of joining forces, but because the enemy we have to deal with is the same, so helping me is helping myself, I now have a good way to deal with the ministers, I don't ask General Wei to praise me for this, I just hope he can help me."
Wang Yuanji did not refute again.
Sima Zhao was also having a headache about the affairs of the ministers.
The ministers obviously wanted to leave the others behind and make the temple their own, and not allow others to intervene.
Now there is still a rebellion in the local area, and once the rebellion is over, they will definitely do their best to weaken Sima Zhao, suppress his cronies, install their own people, and turn him into a loner.
Wang Yuanji asked again: "What does Zhong Hui's appointment as Zongzheng have to do with the affairs of the ministers?" β
Cao Chao laughed, "In a few days, you will know that there will be distinguished guests coming to Luoyang, which is enough to give the ministers a headache." β
"I originally wanted the Queen Mother to give a direct order, but I and General Wei are relatives after all, so I want to work with General Wei to handle this matter, he has just served as General Wei, and he has not made any contributions, and I am also kind."
Wang Yuanji had never seen such a shameless person.
It was clear that the Empress Dowager's edict didn't work, so I looked for Sima Zhao.
How can it come out of your mouth as if you want General Wei to thank you for your kindness?
"Then how am I supposed to tell General Wei about this?"
Although she was very angry in her heart, Wang Yuanji still endured it, she was a very intelligent person and knew the current situation very well.
Even if she doesn't think about her mother's family, she has to think about her two sons.
If Sima's family falls, her two sons will also suffer great calamity.
"You tell General Wei that Zhong Shiji can serve as Zongzheng, and Xiahou Xian and Cao Yu will arrive in Luoyang in the near future."
