Chapter 199 A showdown without suspense!
That night, Cao Pi went to meet Cao Ren.
However, what puzzled Cao Pi was that Cao Ren did not meet him enthusiastically, but instead acted like he didn't want to get involved.
If Cao Pi had not waited outside his mansion for nearly an hour, he would probably have not seen Cao Ren.
In the lobby of the General's Mansion, Cao Pi met Cao Ren as he wished.
"Zi Xiaoshu, now Wei State is in danger, so I ask Zi Xiaoshu to help."
Cao Ren knelt on the main seat, and he looked at Cao Pi in front of him, his tone was neither light nor light.
"Wei State is in danger, but Zihuan, you must know that the aristocratic family is not something you can deal with. If you do this, you may be gone when Wei State is in danger."
Huh ~
Cao Pi took a deep breath and said, "The aristocratic family is powerful. Of course, Huan knew that going out to be an enemy of the aristocratic family is no different from seeking death, but Zi Xiaoshu, don't forget that his lips and teeth are cold. If the aristocratic family plan is done, Zi Xiaoshu thought we could survive? Even if we can survive, Zi Xiaoshu would be willing to live such a life?"
Cao Ren picked up the tea in his hand and took a light sip. He did not answer Cao Pi's question, but became silent.
"Son Xiaoshu, it's not the time to save yourself. My father was ill in the palace. In this Wei Kingdom, can we rely on others besides our Cao family?"
Cao Ren put down the teacup in his hand. He looked at the bright starry sky outside the window. He stared at the bright moon for a moment before he said it.
"Of course, Wei State can only rely on its own family."
"Zi Xiaoshu, you are your own family. Now that the Cao family is in trouble, if you don't take action, do you have to watch the aristocratic family be rampant?"
Cao Ren sighed and said, "But I live in Yecheng, with no soldiers or soldiers on my hands. Even if I want to help you, it will be useless. I am a general. If the general loses his soldiers, what's the use? As for the dirty things in the court, my uncle is powerless!"
Seeing Cao Ren relaxing, a trace of excitement appeared in Cao Pi's eyes.
"Although Zi Xiaoshu has no soldiers or soldiers, he is still the general of Wei State and the marshal of the military and horses of the Wei State. With this, the aristocratic families dare not attack Zi Xiaoshu."
"Of course the aristocratic family dare not attack me, but I'm afraid there are very few people who can help Zihuan?"
Cao Pi shook his head.
"Many, if only Zi Xiaoshu is the only one, the influence is naturally not enough. But if Zi Xiaoshu can gather all the relatives together, then this force will be feared by even the aristocratic families."
Cao Ren looked at Cao Ren deeply and asked, "Zihuan wants to use the royal family to fight against the aristocratic families?"
"Cao Pi has no choice."
"But have you ever thought about those clan relatives?"
"There is no end to the eggs under the cover. They should understand this truth. After the overthrow of Wei, all the rights in their hands will disappear, and all the wealth and honor will be unknown."
"Being enemies with a noble family, they may not even be able to save their lives."
"How can you not work hard for Wei State when enjoying the wealth of Wei State?"
"Oh~"
Cao Ren sighed, he picked up the teacup tightly in his hand, drank the tea in one gulp, and then exhaled a sip of turbid air before Cao Ren said the following words.
"I can help you, but I don't think there are too many royal families who are willing to die with Zihuan. You need to be mentally prepared."
Hearing Cao Ren's words, Cao Pi felt a little sad, but he nodded.
"This matter is left to my uncle."
Cao Ren poured himself another cup of tea, drank it again, and stopped talking to Cao Pi.
If Cao Ren did not talk to Cao Pi, he would naturally expel the guests. Cao Pi was also tactful. He stood up and bowed to Cao Ren, and then slowly retreated.
After Cao Pi left, Cao Ren sighed again. He looked at Cao Pi's departure back and shook his head gently.
"The king is lying down with a fake illness. Can't you calm down? You still have to join the royal family?"
The aristocratic families will naturally be afraid of the power of the royal family, but that is just fear!
Of course, Cao Ren would do this request from Cao Pi, but Cao Ren could not know how to do it and how it was done.
One thing is certain, Cao Ren will never do his best.
....................................
Cao Pi went to find Cao Ren, and the aristocratic family also made moves.
The Wang Su case made new progress that night. The assassin who assassinated Wang Su failed to torture and confessed the mastermind. Unexpectedly, the mastermind was Cao Pi, the Marquis of Chang'an.
There is also direct evidence for the Cao Rui riding horse case.
According to a slave in Chang'an Marquis' Mansion, Cao Rui, the son of Chang'an Marquis, did leave the Marquis' Mansion by carriage and horse.
On the Suzaku Avenue, many people also saw that it was Cao Rui. In the palace, there were more imperial guards confessing to Cao Rui.
Compared with the strategy of Chang'an Marquis Mansion, the aristocratic family is more efficient and faster.
And at this time, speed can determine success or failure.
The two things that the aristocratic family had to target Cao Pi were completed in an instant, but Cao Pi was still on the way to join forces with his clans. As for the division of the aristocratic family, it had just begun.
The aristocratic family has this advantage, of course it will not be wasted.
That night, Wang Lang summoned all the ministers to discuss the matter together.
Looking at the rituals at night, there have not been many things in China for five thousand years, it can be seen that the aristocratic family is determined to deal with the Chang'an Marquis.
The aristocratic family was vigorous and decisive, so when Cao Pi came back from the general's mansion, he immediately learned the news.
In the lobby of Chang'an Marquis Mansion, Cao Pi's gloomy face was like the darkness outside the window, which made people breathless.
There were many advisers in the hall, but no one dared to speak at this time.
The last silence was broken by Wu Zhi.
"June, compared to the actions of the aristocratic families, the actions of the marquis' mansion are too slow."
Cao Pi nodded.
"It's too slow. I usually raise so many people, why does it delay at this most critical moment?"
I have been raising troops for a thousand days and using troops for a while. I have been raising you for so long, but it is useless at all?
Beside Wu Zhi, Chen Qun swallowed a saliva. He stood up, bowed to Cao Pi, and said, "Report to the Lord and Hou, the reason why the Hou Mansion is slow to move is not because the officials in the Hou Mansion are not working hard. In fact, these officials and soldiers have tried their best."
"Then why are there so many aristocratic families? Aristocratic families are two things, and we are two things. Aristocratic families are going to publicly execute this marquis. Your affairs are not yet settled?"
Cao Pi is really going to get angry.
"Don't be angry!"
At this time, Sima Yi stood up instead.
"How can you keep me from being angry?"
"If anger can solve the current dilemma, Junhou can certainly continue to be angry, but the key is that no matter how angry Junhou is now, it will be useless."
Huh ~
Although what Sima Yi said was unpleasant, the truth was indeed this.
"Forget it, I am not angry, but we must not be so passive."
Chen Qun smiled bitterly on his face.
"June, I'm afraid the Marquis' Mansion will really be so passive."
Cao Pi raised his eyebrows and said, "What does this mean in the long text?"
Chen Qun clapped his hands, and dozens of armored soldiers immediately came up at the door as they looked up dozens of loads of bamboo slips. There were official uniform seals behind each bamboo slip, and the meaning was self-evident.
These are all the officials of the Chang'an Marquis' Mansion who resigned from Cao Pi.
Seeing this scene, Cao Pi's mouth opened slightly, and finally he had to sigh deeply.
He finally knew why the Marquis's Mansion had not been moving for a long time.
The more he went against the aristocratic family, the more Cao Pi felt the power of the aristocratic family.
But, really, just sit still and wait for death?
