Chapter 505 Oath to Kill
The Sima flag fluttered high, and another person stared at it for a long time.

Chen Tai looked disappointed.

The Sima family is rising, but the Cao family is declining day by day.

Once Zhong Hui wins Hanzhong, will Sima Zhao take another step forward?
The answer is too obvious.

Sima couldn't wait.

In fact, Sima Zhao treated Chen Tai very well, except for not letting him lead the army, he gave everything that should be given.

Chen Tai's two sons were both enshrined as marquises and stayed in Xiangguo's mansion.

As long as Chen Tai nods, the Sangong and Jiuqing are no problem, and Zhong Hui and Jia Chong all stand aside.

But no matter what Sima Zhao hinted, Chen Tai just didn't let go.

The oath of Luoshui was firmly stuck in Chen Tai's heart like a thorn. After so many years, instead of being eliminated, it became deeper and deeper.

There are folk storytellers in Luoyang, who actually compiled the Gaoping Mausoleum Change and the Luoshui Oath into stories, which were widely circulated.

Although Sima Zhao ordered the arrest and killing of the storyteller in time, even though the storyteller disappeared, the story had already been spread.

Chen Tai also heard a little bit about him, even his name appeared in the song, how he was deceived by Sima Yi, and how he deceived Cao Shuang, was vivid and vivid, and the shame of the past appeared in his mind again and again, as if he could not get rid of it. nightmare.

"Thanks to Uncle Xuan's careful planning, Yang Zheng was driven out of Guanzhong!" Sima Zhao's voice appeared behind him.

The moment Chen Tai withdrew his gaze, the look of disappointment on his face disappeared, "16 people can't control [-] western thieves, Tai is extremely ashamed."

He was ashamed, Sima Zhao was not ashamed at all, "That's wrong, if the western thief dares to fight upright, he will die tragically under Xuanbo's Wugang car, as long as he blocks Yang thief to the north of Feng Sa, we will win the battle! "

"It's not that our army stopped the West Bandit, but the West Bandit deliberately lured our army here."

"Yang Er wanted to use the advantage of the cold weather to drag down our army, how could he know that Xuan Bo is superior in chess?" Sima Zhao still admired this old friend's military strategy.

The formation of the march was all done by Chen Tai, so Yang Zheng couldn't find any loopholes.

"The western bandits are aggressive, and Yang Zheng uses his troops like tigers and wolves. Xiangguo should not be underestimated." Chen Tai reminded absent-mindedly.

Sima Zhao also echoed absent-mindedly, "This journey, when have I ever underestimated him? Uncle Xuan, the capture of Hanzhong is imminent, and the princes in the court have repeatedly tried to persuade him to advance. I am very distressed. I don't know what Xuanbo intends to do ?”

It used to be implied, but now it is directly expressed.

Among the Yingchuan gentry, the Chen, Xun, and Zhong families were the leaders. Zhong Hui and Zhong Yu had long been Sima Zhao's confidantes, and Xun Yi and Xun Xu had long been closely tied to the Sima family.

Only Chen Tai is the only outlier among them.

It would be fine if Chen Tai was just an ordinary courtier, the key is that Chen Tai's reputation and achievements are too high.

It was so high that Sima Zhao had to be on his guard.

"I don't know what Xiangguo's mind is?" Chen Tai stared at Sima Zhao frankly and calmly.

Sima Zhao dodged his eyes, and chanted in his mouth: "Qi Huan and Jin Wen, who are known today, are still able to serve the Zhou family because of their vast army. Deacon, it is impossible to return to the Marquis of Wuping. What? I am sincerely afraid that I will leave the army and cause disaster to others. It is for the sake of future generations, and the country will be in danger if I lose. Why."

This statement comes from Wei Wu's "Shu Zhi Ling".

Assuming that there are no orphans in the country, I don't know how many people will be called emperors and how many people will be called kings!It is from this article.

Sima Zhao brought Wei Wu out and said, the meaning is already quite obvious.

It's not that I, Sima Zhao, don't want to retire, but that if I retreat, future generations will suffer disaster, and the state of Wei will also fall apart as a result.

The fact is indeed the case, besides Sima Zhao, who else in Cao Wei can turn the tide and unify the powerful power of the gentry?

Although the emperor has the ambition to revive Cao Wei, the foundation of the Cao family has been broken, and even Xiahouhe has surrendered to the Sima family...

I'm afraid that without Sima Zhao, there will be other powerful ministers to replace him!
Now Cao Wei can't stand this toss.

The people of the Central Plains could not afford another melee among the princes.

Chen Tai let out a long sigh, Cao Wei planted a major hidden danger at the beginning of the founding of the country.

Although it was a temporary conspiracy to rely on the emperor to order the princes, it also became Cao Wei's curse.

"I also hope Xiangguo treats His Majesty well..." Chen Tai bowed deeply.

Sima Zhao was overjoyed, and grabbed Chen Tai's hand, "Don't worry, Uncle Xuan. King Wu defeated Zhou and continued to offer sacrifices to the Yin Dynasty. Emperor Wen established the country and continued the Han Dynasty. My Sima family has been loyal for three generations and will definitely worship the Cao family."

The word "loyalty" was like four slaps on Chen Tai's face.

However, compared to Sima Yi and Sima Shi, Sima Zhao still has some face.

At least a superficial "benevolence and righteousness" reputation.

"On behalf of His Majesty Tai and on behalf of Great Wei, thank the Prime Minister."

"Uncle Xuan doesn't have to be like this." The last big stone fell from Sima Zhao's heart.

The gentry of the Central Plains have all stood with him.

When I was rejoicing, suddenly there was a loud sound of horseshoes and roars in the north, and a group of thousands of horsemen came galloping. The first wooden cart had a flag on it.

There seemed to be something still hanging from the flagpole.

Sima Zhao and Chen Tai looked at the same time, but still couldn't see clearly, it seemed to be a person.

He rushed to the bank of Baishui River and got closer, only to find that it was a mummy.

The big blood-red characters on the big flag are even more shocking: The dead body of the old thief Sima Fu is here!
"Here is the corpse of the old thief Sima Fu!" The cavalry on the north bank roared clearly.

Baishui City was silent, as if someone had grabbed his throat.

Instantly, Sima Zhao's eyes turned red.

Sima Fu died in Chang'an, and Sima Zhao also vigorously promoted it for a while, and invited a large group of celebrities to write sacrificial tributes, such as the loyalty of the country, the pillar of the Wei Dynasty, the model of scholars, and the use of light to guide Hongxun, calm the universe, Xunde surpasses the world, and all people rely on...

All the words of tiger and wolf are used.

He also forced the emperor to give him the posthumous title "Xian" of Anping.

Without Sima Fu, Sima Shi would not have transferred power so quickly and won the support of the gentry.

Without Sima Fu, Sima Zhao would not have been so successful in his struggle with Emperor Cao Mao.

The world often says that Sima Yi lived a long life and killed Cao Pi, Cao Rui, Zhuge Wuhou and other opponents. In fact, Sima Yi was only 71 years old, and Sima Fu lived to 93, escorting the Sima family until the founding of the Western Jin Dynasty.

"Yang Er, you and I are at odds! If I don't kill you today, I swear I won't be a human being!" Sima Zhao, who had always been forbearing, was furious.

This is an era of filial piety.

If Sima Zhao was indifferent to his own uncle's corpse, he would always be a stain on filial piety.

"Please, Prime Minister, calm down the thunderous anger. This is Yang Er's treacherous conspiracy. Our army only needs to block the Baishui, and the western thieves will be helpless. When Shi Ji takes Hanzhong and sends his troops to Longyou, the western thieves will be wiped out!" Chen said. Tai made a last-ditch effort.

Yet he also knew it was futile.

In the past, Yang Zheng's campaign to insult the Sima family was only verbal.

Now that Sima Fu's body was taken out, Sima Zhao had no way out.

This battle must be fought.

If Sima Zhao still hesitates at this point, he must be ridiculed by the people of the world, "Let all the troops besiege and kill Yang Bandit!"
