The Three Kingdoms began with the rescue of Mrs. Mi

Chapter 663 Wang Yuanji: Paper Can't Cover Fire

Outside Luoyang City, Dashi Mountain.

Facing the Zhongyue Songshan Mountain far away, the forest is luxuriant, wild animals are infested, the ravine is deep and dangerous, majestic and magnificent, it is the key point in the southeast of Luoyang.

Cao Pi, Emperor Wen of Wei Dynasty, once hunted here. There are two stories in "Zi Zhi Tong Jian":

Cao Pi, Cao Rui, father and son hunted here, and saw the mother deer.Emperor Wen shot the female deer and ordered Rui to shoot the son deer. Rui wept and said, "Your Majesty has already killed the mother, and I cannot bear to kill the son again."

In the past, Emperor Wen of the Wei Dynasty hunted on this mountain, and there was a tiger who surpassed Chengyu, and Sun Li drew his sword and threw the tiger at the mountain.

Here Cao Pi, Cao Rui, and Sun Li are mentioned, alluding to Zhen Mi.

Historically, Zhen Mi was indeed forced to death by Cao Pi, which can be seen from Cao Rui's reaction.

Fortunately, this time, Zhen Mi was rescued by Liu Feng, not only saved her life, but also had the last laugh in the competition with Cao Pi who lived longer.

If Liu Feng regained Luoyang one day, Zhen Mi could bring Cao Ying and Cao Ling and other daughters to Cao Pi's mausoleum, and pay respects to the well-known Emperor Wen.

The news of the fall of Chang'an came, the emperor Cao Fang cried bitterly, and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were heartbroken. At the suggestion of Sun Zi, Liu Fang, Zhang Ji, Li Feng and other close and important officials, Cao Fang issued an edict of guilt and brought all the elders of the clan to the Gaoping Mausoleum worships ancestors.

Guilt edict, to put it more clearly, is to admit one's mistakes first, express an attitude, and then get out of the matter and judge the responsibility with a neutral attitude.

Cao Fang's move, I have to say, played beautifully.

This is also the first time he has "independently" expressed his political views and ideas since Queen Mother Guo left.

Of course, it is impossible for Cao Fang alone to make such a shrewd decision. Sun Zi, Liu Fang and other veteran officials in Cao Rui's period finally chose to side with the little emperor after watching the government for several years.

This change was unprecedented in history, and it was also a hidden benefit brought to Cao Fang after Queen Mother Guo voluntarily withdrew from the court.

Cao Fang ran to Gaoping Mausoleum to cry.

Cao Shuang, the general who stayed in Luoyang, was very dissatisfied. Although he also had the surname Cao, but because he was not a real Cao family member, in terms of wooing the officials of the court, except for old friends such as Ding Mi and Xia Houxuan, other Wei officials and generals , Cao Shuang's attitude has been lukewarm, which made Cao Shuang feel very angry.

"General, you don't need to get angry. The defeat of Chang'an this time damaged the prestige of the royal family and consumed the strength of Sima Taiwei. It has nothing to do with the general. From Mi's point of view, since Chang'an can't be taken back, it is better to stop the army." Negotiating with Liu Feng is also more beneficial, for example, forcing Sima Yi to resign as a captain, the generals in the army who are close to the Sima family can also be replaced."

Ding Mi, He Yan, and Deng Yang are Cao Shuang's confidantes. Seeing Cao Shuang's depression and displeasure, Ding Mi had an idea to persuade him from another angle.

"What Yan Jing said is, if Sima Yi, an old tortoise, doesn't shed his skin this time, how can I, Cao Shuang, get out of my bad temper? Come, please come and invite Xiahou Taichu to come to the mansion. Let's have a good discussion about the court. Things."

Cao Shuang's face changed from cloudy to sunny, and he laughed.

He was not a pure minister, and he didn't have feelings for Cao Wei like his father Cao Zhen. Cao Shuang, who valued real power and profit more, couldn't help but feel happy when he heard that he could force Sima Yi to resign.

Compared with Cao Fang, who committed suicide and cleared himself of his responsibilities, and Cao Shuang, who gloated at his misfortune, the mansion of Taiwei Sima Yi was full of gloom and mist. The scenery before the fall of Chang'an was in stark contrast to the current desolation.

Sima Division was still leading troops in Tongguan and Huazhou and could not return. After all, Sima Zhao was too young to deal with such a sudden change. In desperation, Sima Yi had to come back from Xuchang in a hurry to deal with Sima Division's disadvantage in combat. What a mess.

Sima Yi was old, and after rushing all the way, he arrived at the Luoyang mansion and rested under the service of Mrs. Fu.

When he woke up, it was already midnight. Seeing that Sima Yi had regained his composure, Mrs. Fu asked her servants to bring supper, and at the same time started talking to Sima Yi.

"Taiwei, I feel that the emperor and the general are making trouble this time, and want to force our Sima family to give up power. From my point of view, although Ziyuan sent troops to Guanzhong for reinforcements this time, although there is no merit, it is also nothing. Where it went wrong."

"Chang'an was lost in Guo Huai's hands. It was the empress dowager Guo who had an affair with Liu Feng, which made Ziyuan and Yuanshao's plan fail. Yuanshao, this child, both father and brother died in the city this time. , it's really pitiful..."

Sima Yi's stepwife, Mrs. Fu, was constantly enlightening by his side. Today, she has replaced Zhang Chunhua and gradually became the head of the Taiwei's mansion.

After Guo Huai married into Sima's family, she and Mrs. Fu were probably both concubine daughters and had similar temperaments. The two hit it off right away.

In comparison, Wang Yuanji, whom Sima Zhaoming is marrying, is very unpopular with Mrs. Fu.

From Madam Fu's point of view, Wang Yuanji refused to call her "mother" when she saw her stepmother, because she looked down on her background.

Sima Yi said "hmm", closed his tired eyes and didn't answer.

This defeat in Guanzhong, as Mrs. Fu said, Sima Shi's responsibility is actually not that great. The real decision on Wei's side was that he did not make up his mind and went all out to fight Liu Feng for a national destiny battle.

When Cao Cao and Han Ma competed for Guanzhong, Cao Cao sent more than [-] soldiers from the Guandong to the battlefield, and even sent soldiers from Qingzhou to the field. Only then did he defeat the powerful Ma Chao and Han Sui in one fell swoop.

Now Liu Feng's aura is stronger than that of Han and Ma, but Wei Guo looked forward and backward when responding. Except for him, Sima Yi, who sent Sima Division to reinforce him, Cao Shuang, a general, stood still and guarded Luoyang. This is not a negligence of duty. What?
Thinking of this, Sima Yi felt extremely uncomfortable as if his chest was blocked by a big rock.

"Taiwei, there is one more thing. Yuanshao wrote a letter from Huazhou, mentioning that Ziyuan's method of using troops may be leaked. I also feel strange. How could Liu Feng be so lucky this time? How could he predict it? , Ziyuan will take a conservative policy..."

Mrs. Fu saw that Sima Yi seemed to have listened to her own words, and after brewing her feelings, she told Sima Yi a secret about the Taiwei's mansion.

"Taiwei, Zishang's wife, Mrs. Wang, since returning from Longyou, the relationship between husband and wife has been discordant. I thought that it was just a young couple who were at odds, and it would be fine in a few days, but after careful investigation, I found that it was not so. It's going on..."

Sima Yi was taken aback, the marriage between Sima Zhao and Wang Yuanji was arranged by him and the former Situ Wang Lang.

At the beginning of the two people's marriage, they were also in love with each other, and they were very affectionate, but now they are at odds and the relationship is cold. What is the reason for this? Sima Yi vaguely guessed what might have happened in Longyou, but the specifics are unknown to the person involved. Really not too clear.
