As soon as Zhong Hui sat down, he said a rather exciting news.

"Huh??"

"Hands-on??"

Cao Chao was suddenly alert, but Zhong Hui smiled disdainfully and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, they don't want to use the sword. ”

"I learned that they gathered together yesterday to plot, and the time was so coincidental, they definitely wanted to make a fuss in today's East Hall Banquet!"

Zhong Hui said righteously: "When the minister learned about this, he deliberately put down the important matter in his hand and came to the banquet because he was worried that His Majesty would be made for them, and he specially came to suppress these traitors for His Majesty!" ”

Cao Chao glanced at Zhong Hui.

Actually, you just made an excuse to go to the banquet, right?

On the Dongwu side, it is "there is a mistake in the song, Zhou Lang Gu", and on our side, it is "Famous people gather, Zhong Lang Gu".

However, this is not a small problem.

Cao Chao could only admit it, "Shi Ji came in time, and when the ministers saw Shi Ji here today, they would definitely not dare to make trouble!" ”

Zhong Hui is very proud, these days, Zhong Hui has not been idle for a day.

He sent people to contact Zhuge Dan, Chen Tai, Sima Wang, Biqiu Jian and others, trying to take these forces back to the temple, and at the same time adjusted many of the Great Wei's policies towards the clan, released the cage, and most importantly, Zhong Hui was still privately handling major matters against General Wei.

These big things all fell on Zhong Hui alone, which made Zhong Hui very excited, he didn't feel tired at all, and he enjoyed it.

Cao Chao was a little worried about his physical condition, but although Zhong Hui also drank, he never gave up, let alone drank irrationally like Ji Kang and them, and his body was quite tough.

In his busy schedule, he still has time to attend the banquet, and he can only say that he is worthy of Zhong Shiji.

While the two ministers were discussing major events in various places, celebrities and scholars began to appear in the East Hall Banquet

Wang Xiang looked at several subordinates beside him.

"The old man is going to the East Hall, you can prepare the carriage."

"Yui!"

Some hurried to prepare, while others stared at him.

Wang Xiang was a little hairy when he stared at him, he cleared his throat, and then said: "I want to put it on the table to the emperor and prepare paper and ink for me." ”

The man nodded and walked out.

Wang Xiang suddenly narrowed his eyes, if he didn't want to be a knife for the emperor, then he could only contact Wang Su in advance, so that Wang Su could understand the emperor's sinister intentions, as long as he could temporarily put aside his personal grievances, this matter could still be resolved smoothly.

It's just that he is now imprisoned in the palace and is not allowed to go out, and no one from outside can come in to look for him.

However, it doesn't matter, the original emperor was also imprisoned, and he can contact people outside, can't he do it himself?

Wang Xiang is full of confidence in himself.

Sitting in the study, he had already begun to think about how to quietly hand the letter to Wang Su.

He substituted himself into the position of Cao Chao at the beginning, and had countless ideas in his heart.

Soon, the "subordinate" put a piece of paper in front of Wang Xiang.

Wang Xiang had never seen this person in the past, this person was arranged by the emperor, saying that he was here to take care of Wang Xiang, but looking at his words and deeds, he didn't look like a subordinate minister.

Wang Xiang picked up his pen and wrote a few sentences, and suddenly, he let out a long sigh.

"I haven't used a pen for a long time, but I made a mistake and can't use it anymore, so you can get me another piece of paper."

The man glanced at Wang Xiang, stretched out his hand at any time, took the waste paper in his hand, and quickly took out a new one from his body, spread it out and put it in front of Wang Xiang.

Wang Xiang was dumbfounded.

"You stand here, old man can't write."

The subordinate said that he understood, then walked a few steps, stood at the door, turned around, and stared at Wang Xiang with a smile.

Wang Xiang scolded in his heart.

Just keep an eye on the old man, right??

He couldn't afford to procrastinate, frowning, and reluctantly began to write, and after a moment of writing, he put away his pen, and the man stepped forward again, making sure that there was no gap in the paper.

Wang Xiang raised his head with a straight face, and looked at the people in front of him.

"The old man looks at you, you don't look like an ordinary person, I don't know where you come from?"

The man replied, "Servant Zhao Guo, who used to take care of His Majesty, has come to take care of the prince on purpose, and the prince does not need to be polite, if there is anything, just command." ”

Wang Xiang's expression suddenly froze.

I said how can I be so skilled, co-author is the person who used to spy on His Majesty!

Zhao Guo's words are actually reminding Wang Xiang, don't do these small actions, you are professional below, you have no chance.

Wang Xiang finally realized the feeling of the emperor at this moment.

The people around him are all appointed by others, recording their words and deeds, even when they go to change clothes, someone is watching Wang Xiang's eyes full of despair.

How the hell did the emperor get out of this surveillance?

It's a dead end!

On the premise that he had not experienced such treatment, it was impossible for the ministers to understand the difficulties faced by Cao Chao.

Wang Xiang finally chose to bow his head, under this kind of surveillance, he had no chance to contact Wang Su at all, he already understood that even if Wang Su came to him in the future, there would definitely be people staring at him, once he said something to him that should not be said, he was afraid that the treatment of the Zhu clan would fall on his head.

Wang Xiang smiled bitterly, "Let's go to the Taiji Palace." ”

Wang Xiang sat in the carriage and came all the way to the palace under the care of everyone.

When he entered the palace, those who took care of him were still following him on foot, Wang Xiang was very helpless about this, he looked around, it was obviously a familiar palace, but at this moment it suddenly became a little different.

Whether it's the soldiers stationed in the distance, or the armor soldiers who patrol back and forth, they seem to have extremely high morale, and this kind of thing can be seen at a glance.

There was a joy on their faces, and they walked with a tiger's air and bright eyes, which were completely different from what they had been not so long ago.

Wang Xiang was really shocked this time.

His own disciples have been preparing for a long time and have defeated Gao Rou and other ministers, which he can understand.

But he's only been in power for a few days, why has even the armor become so different??

What the hell is going on?

Wang Xiang really couldn't understand, he looked at Zhao Guo who was following behind him, and finally couldn't help but open his mouth tentatively: "The armor soldiers in the palace have changed greatly. ”

Zhao Guo laughed, "Follow the Holy King, naturally. ”

Wang Xiang was speechless for a moment.

In fact, the reason for the high morale of these soldiers is very simple, Boss Cao has raised his salary and subsidized it.

In the case that the candidate for the Shaofu Order was not determined, Cao Chao generously used his personal money to reward and improve the welfare of the guards in the palace, and when he learned that the boss had raised his salary, the employees were naturally high-spirited.

"Prince?"

"Guo Gong?"

At this moment, someone suddenly caught up with Wang Xiang from behind, Wang Xiang saw the person, his eyes were full of surprise, the person who came was Shangshu Guo Zhang.

Even this person has come to participate in the East Hall Banquet??

The way of the world has really changed.

Wang Xiang sighed with emotion, and the two immediately exchanged pleasantries, and the person who took care of Wang Xiang just stared at the two of them, not leaving an inch.

The two walked towards the Taiji Hall together, Guo Zhang probably also heard Wang Xiang's inquiry, and said with disdain: "Your Majesty was bewitched by Ma Long's villain, and used money to buy the army, not a teacher of benevolence and righteousness!" ”

"These soldiers are already greedy, Ma Long bewitched His Majesty to set such a precedent, in the future, their appetite will become bigger and bigger, and they will not be satisfied with rewards, they will sacrifice their lives for Your Majesty in wartime, and they will be completely immersed in happiness, and Great Wei will perish in the hands of Ma Long, a shameless villain!"

Guo Zhang couldn't help but complain.

This view of his is the mainstream idea of the ministers today.

They didn't dare to say that the emperor's behavior was wrong, so they could only find someone to take the blame, and Ma Long, who had no background and no background, naturally became the best candidate.

The ministers were extremely dissatisfied with this Yanzhou martial artist, and they were afraid that they would soon start impeaching him.

Hearing his words, Wang Xiang suddenly realized that this was the case.

But he didn't open his mouth to mock, he just sighed secretly, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid that this new era will not come.

When the two of them arrived at the East Hall, there was a lot of noise.

The emperor sat on the top seat, and on his left and right, there were many celebrities, these people almost filled the entire east hall, both old and weak, in addition to the celebrities, the ministers of the temple also appeared here, Wang Xiang saw several important ministers at a glance, wearing civilian clothes, sitting among many celebrities, talking and laughing.

Wang Xiang's eyes were even more complicated, and at this moment, he didn't know what to say.

His Majesty finally did what he once said, the East Hall Banquet, the first banquet in the world, gathered almost all the celebrities in Luoyang City.

Wang Xiang's arrival made the celebrities and gentlemen suddenly quiet.

Cao Chao also saw him, but did not go to greet him.

Wang Xiang was a little embarrassed, went to meet the emperor, and then entered the ranks of celebrities.

Guo Zhang, however, stayed by the emperor's side, with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, the previous minister was unwell and was unable to come to see him for a long time, and I hope Your Majesty will not blame you."

"Guo Shangshu doesn't have to be polite."

The two exchanged pleasantries on the top, Wang Xiang looked at the surrounding ministers, but he didn't see Wang Su's figure, it seems that this is the opportunity that His Majesty deliberately created for himself, just to let himself find a good reason for himself when Wang Su did not come.

And just as Wang Xiang was about to speak, someone suddenly stood up.

"Your Majesty!!"

Cao Chao was stunned for a moment and looked at the speaker.

The person who opened his mouth was none other than the celebrity Lu Xun, he was Lu An's brother, and it was this person who had led the young celebrities around to impeach the ministers.

With the fall of the ministers, these two celebrities of the Lu family have also become great sages in the eyes of many young scholars, and they are extremely famous.

And his body is also marked with the mark of the Cao Chao faction.

But in fact, Cao Chao was not close to him, and he couldn't even remember who it was.

But he was embarrassed to ask directly, and at this moment, Zhang Hua quietly lowered his head and reminded the other party's name in a low voice.

Cao Chao suddenly realized.

Oh, it's you, a brute.

I didn't speak, I almost forgot to kill you.
