Chapter Eleven, the two ends of the first mouse

He stood up to refute Zhu Shuo's man, who was young and was from Jinyang, Taiyuan County, with his surname Wang, name Chang and courtesy name Wenshu.

The largest outstanding surname in Taiyuan County is the Wang family, who was famous in the world. Wang Yun, Wang Yun's nephew, was forced to be a guest when he was Xunmu, and later he was recommended by Wang Can and others. Now he is the governor of Yingzhou. However, Wang Yun and Wang Ling's branch originated from Qi County. They were Wang Chang, the Wang family in Jinyang, might have been a family of five hundred years ago, but now they can't even beat them.

But they were all in the same county and had a similar voice. People at that time looked at Wang Ling, and Wang Chang was also a young man. Wang Ling was older and Wang Chang was a brother. After the Wang family in Qi County developed again, the Wang family of Jinyang simply turned to Lianzong with a shy face and combined the two families for the family. This was not a rare thing at that time. The big family always used the methods of alliance to snowball the family's power, as if they were not easy to ensure that the main corpus was difficult, the more the same surname was absorbed into the small corpus. The leaves were lush, the branches were flourishing, the branches were strong, and the corpus was strong, and the root was solid.

When Cao Pi was the crown prince, he made Wang Chang the crown prince's literature through Wang Ling's recommendation. Because of his extraordinary knowledge and elegant articles, he was respected by Cao Pi. Wang Ling's original intention was to arrange a good position for this little brother, and to facilitate the future after Cao Pi ascended the throne, the Wang family would be noble. Who would have thought that there would be unexpected events in the world? Not long after Cao Pi became the crown prince, he was taken down.

Wang Ling was disappointed and felt very sorry for Wang Chang. He was just in charge of releasing him as the governor of Yingzhou, so he invited Wang Chang to go with him. After the Cao Wei reorganization, most of the officials and county officials were appointed by the court rather than the superiors themselves. However, the superiors still needed a few confidant guests. Even if they did not occupy the position, they could find opportunities to arrange some temporary positions. After accumulating certain merits, it would be more convenient to ask the Ministry of Personnel to be appointed as an official. After all, the system was first established, and there were still many loopholes. If no one took advantage of the loopholes, that would be a strange thing.

However, Wang Chang refused, saying that Cao Pi treated him very well, and he would rather follow him as a minor official in his vassal. Therefore, Cao Pi valued Wang Chang more and soon became a confidant.

Zhu Shuo advised Cao Pi to respond to Cao Chong's call and rebel. There are two main reasons: First, the world should be yours. You have been the prince, but you were framed by villains and were reluctant to lose your position. Second, you are not afraid that Cao Chong has ulterior motives, and he has never fought a war. You are a person who has been on the battlefield many times. As long as you use a little strength during the battle, you can seize military power. Are you still afraid that Cao Chong will destroy the bridge and kill the donkey?

Of course, Zhu Shuo also said that I can only help you analyze the political situation. I don’t know how to fight. If we respond to Cao Chong and raise an army to "clear the king's side", how likely will we win? I don’t guarantee this. Please ask others’ opinions.

Wang Chang stood up to refute Zhu Shuo, and first said: "If you start a military army, you will definitely be defeated..."

The general situation today and the banner Cao Chong raised are very similar to the "Rebellion between the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu" during the reign of Emperor Jing of the Western Han Dynasty? But that is just a superficial similarity. If we compare it carefully, we can't compare with King Liu Bi of Wu. Liu Bi lost, let alone us?

"The Han Dynasty was established as a great vassal. Wu and Chu were strong, and three days later. Now, it was a small vassal, that is, the four kings of Guandong combined their troops, which was not as good as the eleventh in the world. The Han Dynasty, Gao and Yi, all the kings of different surnames, destroyed many kings, Jing Hui and Wen to Jing, and many heroes, and famous generals died. Chao Cuo and Wei Qi's plan was like Xiao and Zhang? Yafu's courage. Before he could be a father, he could also conquer Wu and Chu's rebellion. The former emperor of our dynasty also won the world immediately. Although he died, many of the Xiahou of Cao were there, and the strong soldiers and soldiers were not old. How could we resist it?"

This kind of rebellion is simply impossible to succeed. Even if Cao Chong contacted many forces, it would be nothing more than a disaster for the Tian family.

"Besides, the rebellion of Wu and Chu was caused by Chao Cuo's depriving of the vassals and the court was in the court. Now the court has no rebellion, and the ones that King Liyang pointed at, and it was not named..." You said that a villain bewitched the king and wanted to "clear the king's side", then you mentioned the villain's name, but the result was just so general and vague, who could convince him?

Let me say it again - "The Han Dynasty is in chaos, and the people have fought hard for a long time. Fortunately, the late emperor has ruined his troubles. Who would have wanted to repeat the war? Since the people are not attached to each other, the soldiers are not strong, what should we rely on?"

Cao Pi said that I understand all the points you mentioned, so I hesitated to discuss with you - what Zhu Yancai said was unreasonable. Now Cao Chong is going to pull me onto a pirate ship, and I obey it and die. Even if he refuses to respond, he spread rumors everywhere. Can the court really believe me? I am afraid that the day of chaos will be the time for me to die. The war will win, and the world is unpredictable. Maybe if you fight hard, you will have some chance of success?

Wang Chang shook his head and said, "It can be divided into five or five, and it can be tried. If it is divided into nine or one, it will be beneficial to fight. It will only hurt the soldiers and civilians. The king was in Luoyang and did not lose his morality. All the ministers knew that there were no mercy on the great king. When Guandong changed, the court could control chaos, only the Taiwei was the grand supporter. The emperor would summon him back. He was kind and kind, but he would be willing to let him go. Moreover, the Empress Dowager is the mother of the king. The Emperor wanted to punish the King. How could the Empress Dowager bear to abandon him?"

Cao Pi said that, I'll wait a minute. If the emperor really recalled Hongfu's administration, I would follow the court. If Hongfu didn't... As for Wang Jingxing, Hua Ziyu and others, even Cao Zixiao and Cao Zilian, I wouldn't believe it. It would be better to get up and try it out.

Regardless of relatives, Cao Pi and Shixun are also old friends. He has followed Cao Cao many times since he was a teenager and often dealt with Shixun. When he first attacked Yecheng, he once asked Shixun for advice on "fighting the enemy". Shixun was a hypocritical face, and seemed to be harmless, but at the same time he was not a veteran bureaucrat like Hua Xin and Wang Lang who were used to changing the situation. Cao Pi believed that Shixun had a lot of confidence in protecting his mind, which was much more reliable than Hua and Wang.

As for all the Cao Xiahou, they are all martial artists. They lack experience in governing and are not well-known among the bureaucrats and literati. It is another matter of reputation in the army. Even if they want to protect themselves, they may be powerless.

So it is the most reliable thing.

He took the initiative to ignore his uncle Cao De... Cao Quji's "little transparent" attribute exploded again...

So while perfunctory Cao Chong, he also secretly searched for the situation in Luoyang. Not long after, news came back, saying that the emperor had summoned Hongfu or ordered him to be the Secretary of the Central Secretariat. Cao Pi summoned his confidant to discuss again. Wang Chang said why are you hesitating? We didn't agree that once the Taiwei returned, we would return to the court immediately - you should pack your luggage and rush to Luoyang to attend the funeral. You must also think of the reason for your lateness in advance...

Cao Pi pondered for a long time and it was difficult to make a decision. Zhu Shuo gave another idea: "I have a plan that may make the king dangerous and safe, but I am afraid of harming the king's flesh and blood, so I dare not say it immediately..." Wang Chang suddenly woke up and pointed at Zhu Shuo's halberd and scolded angrily: "This plan is very poisonous, not something that is what ministers should say, nor is it what a king should hear! Yancai will stay!"

Cao Pi said what the mystery you fought was - he was originally a very smart person, but he was in the situation and was in trouble, so he couldn't react for a while - Yancai had a plan, just say, I will never blame you. He turned around and bowed to Wang Chang again: "I am waiting for death now, but I can live a whole life, so what can I hear?"

Wang Chang sighed softly: "I don't want to hear from you, so the king forgives me." He stood up and left without looking back.

When Wang Chang left the house, Zhu Shu whispered to Cao Pi: "The previous envoy of King Yang of Li came, Yunba sent people to talk about Juancheng, Rencheng, Rencheng, Rencheng, and Rencheng was still young, so it is okay. The King of Juancheng must closely follow the king's will and set the strategy..." Cao Zhi must be staring at you now. If you are willing to get on the pirate ship, he will take the opportunity to get a share. If you refuse to follow Cao Chong, the chance of rebellion will be even more slim, and he will definitely shrink...

"The king can pretend to respond to King Liyang and prepare for recruiting troops, and the King of Juancheng will also rebel. Waiting for his rebellion, the king can secretly go to Chang'an to apologize. He is afraid that the Liyang army will attack each other, so he has to recruit troops to defend the city, which will lead to a slow return. When the chaos is settled, Juancheng will be killed. The Empress Dowager lost a son, so he will be safe from the king..."

You trick Cao Zhi into a pirate ship first, and then go to Luoyang to attend the funeral. After the chaos is over, Cao Zhi will surely die. The Empress Dowager Bian will give birth to you four sons in total. Cao Xiong died early and Cao Zhang died in the past. When Cao Zhi dies again, she will only be your biological child. How can she not fight her life to protect you?

When Cao Pi heard this, he couldn't help crying: "That's how I killed my son Jian..." After crying, he said, "Okay, let's do it."

So he followed the plan. Finally, Cao Pi left Anfeng secretly, walked day and night, and arrived in Luoyang before Cao Cao was buried. After he entered the city, he ran to Shixun's mansion first, and reported Shixun secretly, which scared Shixun. He thought that since Zi Huan Ru returned to Luo, he had no intention of rebellion - but if you don't go to see the emperor, come to worship me first, what's the purpose?

So he wrote his leave note and signed and approved it himself. He just returned home in the afternoon. When he saw Cao Pi, Cao Zihuan fell to the ground and cried loudly, and pulled Shi Xun's clothes and begged, "Son-in-law and son-in-law to save me!"

Shixun quickly pulled Cao Pi up and asked him: "Why is the king like this?"

Cao Pi said, Cao Chong sent someone to incite me to rebel. I was supposed to be killed, but I was afraid that Cao Chong would take the opportunity to attack my Anfeng Kingdom. You must know that both of us are in Luzhou, and the distance is not far away. Cao Chong's rebellion revealed by the envoy seemed to be quite sufficient, and I couldn't help but be afraid. As a prince, guarding a country, if he had any mistakes, it would be a serious crime according to the national law. At least he would have to be given a title. So I was confused for a while, and at the same time recruited troops to help defend the city. When everything was ready, I dared to return to Luoyang to attend the funeral.

However, on the way, Cao Chong spread rumors everywhere, saying that I had rebelled with him, and said that he supported me as the head coach. In fact, I was the chief leader of the rebellion... I was so dirty that I couldn't wash it even if I jumped into the Yellow River! In desperation, I had to go into Luoyang secretly and come to find you, my son-in-law, first--"My son-in-law loves me, I will not be able to abandon me, and I am very wise, and I will be able to save me!"

Shixun's heart turned a little, and he couldn't help but sneer and asked, "If the king said, why not send an envoy to report the change? Now there is no report, and the two ends of the headless rat are secretly observing the situation?" Since you have seen the envoy sent by Cao Chong, even if you dare not break up with him for a while, you should send someone to Luoyang to report. In fact, you are waiting and watching and preparing for rebellion. Until you see that the situation is unfavorable, you hurriedly got off the pirate ship and came to apologize and beg for mercy?

Little guy, you still want to fool me? (To be continued.)
