Chapter 126: Enviable
Cao Chao has clearly felt the changes he has caused.
This made Cao Chao sober up in an instant.
In the future, when discussing countermeasures, you can't trust your prophetic abilities too much, and with your own series of actions, everything has changed, and there is a high probability that things will not develop according to your predictions.
Be sure to stay awake at all times.
Don't be arrogant, don't be complacent.
Don't forget the lessons of Lu Yu, Gao Rou, Wang Xiang and others!
Hu Zun didn't know what the emperor was thinking at the moment, he was just immersed in the joy of this honor.
Cao Chao specially organized the most grand banquet to entertain Hu Zun.
Hu Zun looked very enjoyable.
But the canonization of Hu Zun has become a problem.
According to Cao Chao's original thoughts, he didn't have to think about this problem at all, this old man might not be able to live to that age, as long as he delayed it a little, he would be posthumously crowned a general after his death.
However, the situation seems to be a little different now.
This old man Hu is jumping around, where does he look like he is about to die?
Canonization must be canonized, but the position of general is obviously unrealistic, and Cao Wei has not yet supported the idea of a new general.
Among the other three generals, General Wei and General Che Cavalry are all there, and there is only one vacancy left for a Hussar General.
Cao Chao is still thinking about it.
The feast continues.
This time, Hu Zun's rapid suppression of the rebellion invisibly gave Cao Chao another wave of fame.
There is such a thing as a text, his influence is indescribable, and the Tao is unclear.
But the human head is in front of you, and the deterrent effect is still very strong.
The Qingzhou rebellion only lasted for a month, and even less than a month, and it was quickly taken by Hu Zun on the side.
If it were the rest of the states, I am afraid that it would not even last for ten days.
Cao Chao sat comfortably on the top seat, tilting his head sideways, his eyes squinting slightly, as if he was resting.
The banquet was very noisy.
This is probably the reason why there are too many officers and men in the army.
Hu Zun has a rough personality and often gets along well with these people.
The ministers were not inhibited, and these men ate more wine than the soldiers, after all, most of them had their main job to eat.
With the arrival of Hu Zun, the last war zone of the Great Wei was also owned by Cao Chao.
Now, the entire Cao Wei army is under the control of Cao Chao's hands.
Cao Chao can be regarded as a real emperor and became a real emperor, he only took more than a year to surpass his predecessor, Cao Fang has not done this for ten years.
The emperor sitting on the top exuded an invisible aura, which was terrifying.
Even a big man like Hu Zun couldn't help but lower his voice and restrain a little when he faced the emperor.
Cao Chao has become a wing, and he is no longer the little lamb that can be slaughtered.
The thoughts of the ministers are different at the moment, the emperor's power is getting heavier and heavier, and there is such a bad rebellion, the courtiers are just thinking about being able to protect themselves at the moment, and they have no intention of provoking the emperor at this time.
Because of this, the banquet became very pleasant, and the ministers of different factions, different origins, and different regions were all drinking and their faces were flushed, and they were talking happily.
After tearing each other apart for a long time, the many factions in the DPRK and China finally showed a stable and balanced trend.
The ministers looked comfortable, but they were all guessing the emperor's thoughts at this moment.
Cao Chao actually didn't think about anything.
There seemed to be an invisible curtain between this noisy banquet and him.
Cao Chao tried to integrate several times, but he just couldn't blend into this happy and noisy atmosphere, it seemed that Cao Chao had some barrier on his body, and even that atmosphere couldn't get close to him.
Cao Chao doesn't like to eat and drink very much.
I don't know why, Cao Chao blushes when he takes a few sips of wine, but his mind is extremely clear, but he really doesn't like the taste of wine.
He prefers tea to alcohol.
Cao Chao picked up the wine cup, complained in his heart, and was about to drink it, when he was suddenly stunned, when did this wine become tea?
He looked to the side, glanced at Zhang Hua, and then smiled and ate tea.
The banquet was very smooth, there was no one who couldn't think of provoking Hu Zun and the emperor at such a time, Hu Zun and the others were already drunk, Cao Chao sent someone to send them back to the mansion, and he left here with Zhang Hua.
Facing the cold wind, Cao Chao walked quickly back to the west hall.
His honored guest, Cao Fang, was arranged here to wait for the emperor to return, and he did not go to the banquet.
When Cao Chao walked into the hall, Cao Fang stood up in fright, and looked at Cao Chao with jealousy in her eyes.
Different people will have different feelings when they look at Sun Yu's writings.
Some people were very angry after reading it and felt that Cao Chao was not a good person.
Some people were very scared after reading it, thinking that Cao Chao was not a person.
Cao Fang obviously belongs to the latter, Cao Fang and Cao Chao have never met at all, Cao Chao may know some about Cao Fang, but Cao Fang has no understanding of Cao Chao at all.

Knowing Cao Chao by begging for thieves, the emperor in Cao Fang's eyes is naturally a cruel and bloodthirsty, murderous person, ten times more brutal than Sima Shi.
Cao Fang was convinced that only the wicked could defeat the wicked.
Cao Chao is definitely worse than Sima Shi!
Cao Chao didn't say anything, just walked in with a swagger, and then sat on the top seat.
"King of Qi"
"Come, why stand? Sit down. β
Cao Chao beckoned gently, but Cao Fang hurriedly replied: "The criminal minister dares to be in the same column as His Majesty!" β
Cao Chao shook his head, his eyes full of emotion.
"What crime do you have against yourself?"
"Sit down."
Cao Fang didn't dare to refute this time and sat next to Cao Chao.
"There are no outsiders here, so we don't have to talk nonsense."
Cao Chao said very calmly: "First of all, I won't kill you." β
Cao Fang shuddered, and her face became more and more pale.
"I said I wouldn't kill you, why are you still so scared?"
Cao Fang didn't dare to reply at all, shouldn't such words be hidden? Is it possible to talk about it directly in person?
Cao Chao patted him on the shoulder, "Don't be afraid, if you don't kill you, you will definitely not be killed." β
"You see, many people say that my power has surpassed that of Sima Shi, of course, I am the emperor, and I am more able to stand in name, but in terms of actual control, in fact, I am still inferior to him."
"He has a lot of relatives, protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials, these people are all over the middle-level positions, and the Taishou in various places, and even some big county orders, are all his own people."
"It's the same thing in the military."
"As for me, I just integrated the upper level, the assassin and the general are my people, you can look down from the assassin history, it is a fog, the situation in the army is better, I am the integration of the bottom and the top, those positions in the middle, it's not easy to say."
Cao Chao frowned, "I can solve this low-level and high-level problem, but if you want to solve this middle-level problem, you can only follow Sima Shi." β
"Support your relatives and cronies."
"There are so many members of my Cao family, it stands to reason that my Cao family should be the first world, in terms of book collection, resources, connections, and status, no one can compare to us, but unfortunately, the clan has been tossed enough since Emperor Wen, and it has been completely defeated."
"I have lifted a lot of restrictions on them this time, and I have allowed them to return to their fiefdoms, but they are crying all the way, thinking that I am going to murder them."
"This can't all be blamed on them, Emperor Wen is always like this, self-defeating, no matter how good the policy is, it has become the same in his hands."
Cao Chao looked at Cao Fang at this time, "So, you survived." β
"In the future, the two of us should be close, I know that you will be Wenfu, you can write some articles to praise our brotherhood, well, I also want to talk about my care for the clan, if you can't write, then it's okay, Maoxian's Wenfu is the first in the world, you can change your name."
Hearing these simple and rough words, Cao Fang was speechless for a long time.
It's incredible!
Is this what an emperor can say?
No wonder you can defeat Sima Shi, it's not good.
However, although Cao Fang was surprised, the sense of fear in her heart disappeared a lot.
Can you survive?
People who speak so bluntly should not deceive themselves at this moment.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"It's okay, anyway, if you do your own thing, there won't be anything, of course, in the past year and a half, you don't want to go back to Qingzhou, it's not that you're afraid of rebellion or something"
"The main thing is that your health is too bad, I'm afraid that you will die halfway, and I will become a murderer if it spreads."
Cao Fang nodded again.
The two of them fell silent, as if they had nothing to say.
At this moment, Cao Fang suddenly asked, "How did Your Majesty do it?" β
Cao Chao was stunned, "What to do?" β
"Defeat Sima Shi."
"Oh, I'm just staying in the Tai Chi Hall and waiting for him to die."
Cao Fang's personality is much more lively than Cao Chao, even in this environment, he even expressed curiosity and interest in Cao Chao's many behaviors, and he did not have the consciousness of being a prisoner at all.
Fortunately, Boss Cao did not treat him as a prisoner, and Cao Chao confidently asked Cao Fang to write an article to praise himself, without a trace of red on his face.
Cao Fang looked at the relative in front of him, who was many years younger than him, and his eyes were full of envy.
He admires Cao Chao's casual personality very much, when Cao Fang was the emperor, he was walking on thin ice, even when the ministers were not so excessive, there was a group of people staring at his words and deeds, and if he didn't say a word, he was attacked by them.
Every time you want to speak, you have to meditate in your mind several times before you can say it.
Later, even if there were no ministers or officials around him who were staring at him, his personality had already been determined, he was cautious in his words and deeds, and he did not dare to slack off.
But Cao Chao was different, he even dared to criticize and insult Emperor Wen.
This made Cao Fang envious.
