Chapter 73 Don't be the queen mother, be the son and mother of heaven

The two returned to the Taiji Hall and sat down separately.

Only then did Liu Lu speak: "Your Majesty is a daughter, how can you wander in Luoyang at will? ”

"Man Changwu is tall and conspicuous, His Majesty has an extraordinary temperament, like standing out from the crowd, those people will be easily discovered."

Liu Lu admonished a few words, and Cao Chao nodded.

"You have a point."

He asked, "What information have you found?" ”

Only then did Liu Lu say solemnly: "Your Majesty, here's the thing, the minister's secret agent in Pingzhou came to report. ”

"We sent some people to keep an eye on the important people who moved from Wu to Pingzhou."

"One of them, the head of the Gu family, got a letter not long ago."

"After he saw the contents of the letter, he was so anxious that he didn't tell even the closest disciples in the clan to ask him."

"The little official we arranged knew about this, and led people to break into his study suddenly at night, but the letter had already been burned, and when asked about the other party, he only said that the letter was nonsense, and he did not know it, so it had been burned."

"We originally thought that this was just a special case, but we never thought that many Wu people who migrated to Pingzhou would have a similar situation."

"This is not a special case."

"We just started searching the letters, and we were surprised to find that they were from Hanoi."

"I went to Hanoi in person, there are too many people in Hanoi who have enemies with His Majesty, and during the investigation, several post guards in Hanoi also mysteriously disappeared."

Liu Lu said very seriously.

Cao Chao was not too surprised.

In fact, over the years, the troublemakers have never stopped, and they have been constantly doing things.

However, because Cao Chao had an increasingly mature bureaucracy and the quality of officials in various places was constantly strengthened, most of these conspiracies were not completed.

Every month in Luoyang, there are several conspiracies against the temple.

It would be strange if it suddenly disappeared one day.

Although these people didn't dare to resist and stop Cao Chao on the surface, in private, they were all small actions.

This time is obviously no different from the past.

And Liu Lu said seriously: "Your Majesty, this time it seems to be a little different. ”

"The information found in Pingzhou said that someone may have tried to assassinate them."

Cao Chao's eyebrows raised, this was indeed something he hadn't expected.

It's normal to have a conspiracy against the temple, but it's a bit unusual to assassinate yourself.

Who doesn't think so?

The difficulty of assassinating the Son of Heaven is really high and terrifying, even when he is out, the defensive force of the light and dark around him is extremely strong, who wants to do this?

However, as Liu Lu said, Cao Chao's current enemies are really countless.

Besides, it's not an exaggeration to have a deep feud in the sea of blood.

Those who have been raided, those who have been punished, those who have been exiled, those who have destroyed the country, and there are all kinds of enemies anyway.

In these years, Cao Chao has simply forcibly promoted policies, almost not caring about the attitudes of the ministers and officials, and those who dare to speak differently will not end well.

But Cao Chao was not afraid, he even laughed.

"That's fine."

"I'm worried that I don't have a chance to attack the rest of the Central Plains."

"I can't guarantee that I can solve some of the financial pressure again."

He looked at Liu Lu, "You check with your heart, and don't rush to collect the net first, catch more big fish, and it's easy to start when the time comes." ”

Liu Lu hurriedly saluted.

"Yui!!"

Liu Lu hurriedly left the Taiji Palace.

Cao Chao shook his head, he didn't care too much about this matter, he was afraid that these people would not make trouble, where would there be a legitimate reason to deal with the big clan if they didn't make trouble?

The relationship between the big clans is close, and if you catch one, you can rectify several.

Cao Chao sat in the hall and looked at several important recitals that were sent, and then he was surprised to find that he had nothing to do!

From the top to now, Cao Chao has hardly a day of idleness, and he spends every day in a busy way, only occasionally calling his friends to come and play chess or something.

I didn't expect that I would have a time when I had nothing to do.

Thinking of this, Cao Chao had mixed feelings in his heart.

He straightened his clothes, strode out of the Taiji Palace, and walked towards the Changqiu Palace.

Since there is no serious business, of course I have to go and hug my son!

The sun is shining.

In front of the Changqiu Palace, Cao Chao was sitting on the Hu bed, he looked very casual, his clothes were not very neat, and his shoes were placed on the side casually.

There was a lot of fruit in front of him.

There are quite a few grapes.

Cao Chao likes to eat grapes very much, grapes, sugarcane, he likes to eat them very much.

Others can't hide from the scorching sun, but Cao Chao likes this kind of hot sun very much, he likes to bask in the sun at such a time, and he always feels hot all over his body, which is extremely comfortable.

I didn't have time in the past, but now I can finally take a break.

A few armor soldiers stood not far away, watching the situation on the emperor's side.

The queen sat beside Cao Chao and gently helped Cao Chao pinch her hands, shoulders, and head.

Cao Chao smiled lightly, "Today I know the emperor's blessing." ”

Zheng Xian glanced at him, "My sister is pregnant, why don't you go and see more?" ”

Just a few days ago, the imperial doctor diagnosed that Sima Yu was pregnant.

Although Sima Yu has been in the harem for a long time, Cao Chao always feels weird, is this Sima Shi's grandson?

At first, Sima Yu was forcibly arranged by Sima Shi, and Cao Chao also had plans to recover his cronies after Sima Shi's death, so he continued to keep her after his pro-government.

But if she stays like this, she has stayed until now, and until now, Sima Yu's reputation in the palace is also very good, she is respectful to the queen, and she is also very considerate to Cao Chao, and Cao Chao is not easy to start driving her out or something.

But after thinking about it again, even Sima Yan stayed, and it was not a big deal to keep Sima Yan again.

If all the Sima family is to be liquidated and no one is left, then Sima Shi's wife and brother Yang Hu, brother-in-law Du Pre, and Wang Chang, Zhuge Dan, He Zeng and others who married the Sima family will all have to be liquidated.

If you want to kill Yang Huiyu, what does Yang Hu say? If you want to kill Du Pre's wife, how can Du Pre deal with himself?

If you want to kill Sima You, what should Wang Su do? You can't make a great contribution to others, and you just go to someone's grandson as soon as the front foot goes and the back foot leaves

I don't have the surname Sima, so I can't do such a beast thing.

That's it, anyway, the current Sima family is almost no different from the extermination of the clan by Cao Chao, Sima Zhao's generation is left with Sima Jun and Sima Wang, Sima Yan's generation is left with him and his younger brother, and the rest of the Sima family is either imprisoned and exiled or killed, and it is purely a dream to want to revive again, you can first ask the other super clans if they agree.

The Xun family is stronger than them when they come up with a branch.

Cao Chao opened his mouth and said: "I've been there twice, and it's because she's pregnant that I let her rest." ”

"Is it still possible to let her come and serve now?"

Zheng Xian gave him a blank look.

She said again: "The Queen Mother, Your Majesty has not been there for a long time, after all, Great Wei governs the country with filial piety, if this news spreads, it will not be good for Your Majesty." ”

Cao Chao let out a long sigh.

"Okay, I got it."

Speaking of which, since the birth of his son, Cao Chao has rarely visited the Queen Mother again.

The Queen Mother, how to say it, it's better to keep a little distance, it's too good to her, and her attitude will be very tough.

Of course, after all, she is the queen mother, no matter what, Cao Chao has to recognize her, otherwise the impact will be very bad.

Cao Chao basked in the sun for a long time, and when the sun's rays were no longer so strong, Cao Chao got up and went to Zhaoyang Hall to see the Queen Mother.

When Cao Chao appeared at the gate of Zhaoyang Palace, Guo's husband was also startled.

He hurriedly led his ministers to bow down and greet him.

Cao Chao asked him to go in and say goodbye, waited for a while, and then went in again.

"Your Majesty!!"

Empress Dowager Guo hurriedly stepped forward, she looked a lot thinner than before, her face was ridged again, but she had heavy eye bags, probably she hadn't been able to rest well.

Since Cao Chao reduced the number of times he came, and then stopped coming at all, Empress Dowager Guo lived in fear all day long.

In the past, her edicts could compete with the emperor's edicts.

And now, she's nothing.

She had a strong sense of abandonment.

When Cao Chao saw her, he immediately wanted to bow and see her, but was hurriedly pulled up by Empress Dowager Guo.

She forced out a smile, with an almost flattering smile on her face, "Your Majesty, why is this? ”

Cao Chao reminded: "Mother calls me son, why is that? ”

"My son, my son is my misname, come on, hurry up and prepare a meal!"

Empress Dowager Guo took Cao Chao's hand and almost asked him to sit on the top seat, but Cao Chao still sat beside her.

"Mother, these days, there are many government affairs, and I am busy all day long, so I can't come to see my mother often, and I hope that my mother will forgive my sins."

Cao Chao has said something similar in the past.

But the expressions of the two times were completely different, in the past it was the kind of sincere appearance, but now, his eyes are sharp, his head is sideways, and he opens his mouth solemnly, as if to say: If you don't forgive your sins, wait for you to die!

Empress Dowager Guo trembled, and hurriedly said: "No, no, how dare you, my son is busy with world affairs, and I am very relieved."

It is not for nothing that the Queen Mother is so scared, after Cao Wen was born, the Queen Mother wanted to visit him.

As a result, as soon as he walked to the gate of the Changqiu Palace, he was blocked by the armor arranged by Cao Chao.

They did not allow the Queen Mother to enter.

Empress Dowager Guo was very angry about this, thinking that it was the queen's order and wanted to break in.

As a result, she was supported by two armor soldiers left and right, and forcibly brought back to Zhaoyang Palace, and for a while, there were even armor soldiers who surrounded the inside and outside, and no one was allowed to leave.

At that time, Empress Dowager Guo really felt scared.

She felt that now Cao Chao's ferocity even surpassed that of Sima Shi, and if she didn't bow her head again, it might be because she missed Emperor Ming and died too much.

Cao Chao was very satisfied with her current attitude, he said: "Mother, it was you who supported me to my current position, and I will definitely repay you, just please feel at ease in the palace, don't be the queen mother, just be my Cao Chao's mother, it's enough." ”
