Mi Han

Chapter 508 Drafting the Will, Sun Quan Disdains
In the dark hall, Qi Wang Cao Rui was talking with several imperial doctors.

It's just that with the constant conversation, the worry on Cao Rui's face became more and more intense.

"It doesn't matter, no matter what, you must heal your majesty's body!"

Cao Rui didn't say clearly what would happen if he couldn't be cured, but it's not hard to see what he didn't express clearly from his livid face and serious tone.

If it can't be cured, they will all be buried with His Majesty.

The surrounding imperial doctors were all trembling with fear from Cao Rui's murderous aura.

It was hard for them to imagine that such a cold murderous aura could erupt from a young man who had not yet reached the crown.

However, several white-haired imperial doctors did not despise Cao Rui just because he was young.

This is not only because of Cao Rui's identity, but also because in the past year, in order to build momentum for Cao Rui, Cao Pi deliberately ordered people to publicize the words Cao Cao said when he was alive:
"I am based on Er III."

Cao Cao's status is sacred in Cao Wei. This sentence he said not only showed that he valued Cao Rui, but also allowed Cao Rui to gain a lot of prestige among the government and the public with this sentence.

Several imperial physicians served Cao's children during Cao Cao's time. Of course, they remembered how ruthless Cao Cao was when he was alive.

Now, under the influence of the dim light, these imperial doctors seem to see some shadows of Cao Cao from Cao Rui.

Just when several imperial doctors were terrified because of Cao Rui's Wang Ling, a servant hurriedly ran to Cao Rui and reported softly to him:

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is awake!"

After hearing these words, Cao Rui immediately walked towards the inner hall, but before he left, he still took a sharp look at the imperial doctors.

Through the conversation with the imperial doctor, he knew how serious Cao Pi's illness was. In order to save Cao Pi from the ghost gate, Cao Rui, who had no medical skills, could only use this method.

Because of the anxiety in his heart, Cao Rui started to trot on the way to the inner hall.

Fortunately, in the past year, Cao Pi has always recruited Cao Rui to the dormitory for teaching, so that Cao Rui is very familiar with the structure of Cao Pi's dormitory, so even if the candlelight in the hall is weak, Cao Rui's footsteps have not slowed down for a moment.

After trotting all the way, Cao Rui quickly came to the inner hall and saw Cao Pi lying on the couch.

Seeing Cao Pi's face like gold paper, and his mother Zhen's sitting beside the couch covering her face and sobbing, the grief in Cao Rui's heart was suddenly aroused.

Due to the existence of Mi Yang, Cao Rui in this life was not treated coldly by Cao Pi, and his mother did not die in the cruel palace fight, so the relationship between Cao Rui and Cao Pi in this life is very good.

Cao Rui, whose eyes were red, rushed to Cao Pi's couch at once, thinking about what to say, but he didn't say anything, just bowed to Cao Pi on the couch with sobs:

"Father!"

Cao Pi, who heard Cao Rui's voice, slowly opened his eyes, and then saw Cao Rui who was sweating profusely and had red eyes.

From Cao Rui's performance, it can be seen how anxious and sad he is at this moment.

After realizing Cao Rui's heart, Cao Pi showed a smile on his pale face.

Although he is the supreme emperor, he is also a father.

When he was seriously ill, it was undoubtedly a great relief for him to see the eldest son who devoted himself to nurturing him like this.

Cao Pi opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice: "In the royal palace of Yecheng, I knelt before the late emperor's bed just like you.

But today, I finally realized what the late emperor had in mind. "

There is melancholy and nostalgia in Cao Pi's tone.

Cao Pi's words made Cao Rui's tears flow down from his eyes no longer uncontrollably.

Cao Rui knew that the year Cao Pi was referring to was the year when his father died of illness.

Obviously, even if Cao Rui deliberately concealed Cao Pi's real physical condition, how could Cao Pi not understand his own physical condition?

Seeing Cao Rui's face covered with tears, Cao Pi, as a father, wanted to reach out and wipe away the tears on Cao Rui's face.

But just like Cao Cao back then, it was very difficult for Cao Pi to do this simple move at this moment.

Cao Pi, who had a deeper understanding of his physical condition, also stopped wanting to express his father's love, and his voice became harsh:

"The husband is the latter, so you can take the lead and achieve meritorious deeds. The world is full of turmoil today, and a powerful enemy is coming. Why does the King of Qi kneel down to mourn his sorrows, and let everyone feel like a man?"

Cao Pi's reprimand touched Cao Rui's heart. He quickly wiped away the tears on his face, and then managed to look at Cao Pi with a calm expression.

Seeing Cao Rui's performance, Cao Pi felt more and more relieved, but as he said, today's powerful enemy is coming, and neither his father nor his son should "feel like a man."

After his thoughts became clearer, Cao Pi first asked Cao Rui: "After I passed out today, all the ministers must be confused. How did you deal with it?"

Although Cao Rui was not clearly established as the prince at the moment, from the moment Cao Rui was named the king of Qi, all the important officials in the court knew Cao Pi's intentions.

In this case, Cao Pi knew that after he passed out, Cao Rui, who was a prince, would definitely be regarded as a temporary person in charge by the ministers.

I just don't know if Cao Rui's handling is appropriate.

Facing Cao Pi's question, Cao Rui immediately replied: "My minister immediately ordered the imperial army to block the eight gates of the imperial city, and ordered each minister to be taken to a different side hall for a short rest.

It is necessary to keep the news of the emperor's fainting from being exposed, and not allow the ministers to have the opportunity to connect with each other in private. "

After hearing Cao Rui's answer, the experienced Cao Pi discovered a shortcoming of Cao Rui's disposal measures.

"The ministers are all descendants of famous families, and most of the palace officials are selected from famous families.

If you only place the ministers separately without controlling the palace officials, then there will still be people who will leak the news. "

When he said this, Cao Pi couldn't help sighing.

When he fainted, Cao Rui was so young, but he was able to maintain his composure for the first time and thought of blocking the news. This is Cao Rui's excellence.

But it is a pity that Cao Rui is still inexperienced, so that he left this omission.

Unexpectedly, when Cao Pi was sighing, Cao Rui bowed to Cao Pi and said, "I have something to ask my father for forgiveness."

Seeing Cao Rui say that suddenly, Cao Pi couldn't help but feel a little confused, and he blurted out, "What's the matter?"

"The son-in-law expected that the palace officials would secretly agree with some ministers due to the self-interest of the family, so the son-in-law specially relaxed the supervision of some ministers, so that some ministers had the opportunity to contact those ministers.

After this happened, the minister arranged for the forbidden army in the dark to appear in time, and took down all the ministers and officials who dared to violate the order of the minister.

The official Lang who committed the crime was sentenced to death by his ministers, and the minister who committed the crime was stripped of his clothes and put in prison by his ministers.

Later, when other ministers learned about this matter, the palace was severely punished, and no one dared to violate it.

Ke Erchen has no position in the body, but uses punishment to punish the officials and ministers. This is a crime of usurpation, and I hope the father will forgive the crime. "

Cao Rui's clear and powerful voice fell into Cao Pi's ears, causing a look of astonishment to appear on Cao Pi's face.

It turned out that Cao Rui did not make omissions due to lack of experience. On the contrary, he anticipated this matter in advance, and used it extremely cleverly to establish his authority.

This.
Cao Pi looked at Cao Rui in front of him, and recalled Cao Cao's words in his mind: "I am based on you for three generations."

How similar is Cao Rui's strategy and strategy today to that of the late emperor?
Cao Pi couldn't help but think of his own performance when the late emperor died.

On that day, he had a preliminary grasp of the overall situation with the assistance of Jia Kui, Cao Xiu, and other important officials.

Today, however, Cao Rui initially stabilized the overall situation entirely through his own means, and there is no comparison between the two.

The dormitory fell into silence because of Cao Rui's "pleading guilty", but not long after, a burst of laughter mixed with coughing sounded on Cao Pi's couch.

Plead guilty?

Cao Rui is guilty!

Not to mention whether Cao Rui, who is actually the prince, has such power, but to say that in the current crisis and when he is about to run out of fuel, Cao Pi can only feel happy if the heir can show such excellent skills.

After a burst of gratifying laughter, Cao Pi seemed to have made a decision in his heart.

"You don't need to stay by my side anymore, just do your job well!

Go free and do it! "

Under Cao Pi's expectant eyes, Cao Rui left Cao Pi's bed with a sad face.

After Cao Rui left, Cao Pi endured the pain in his body and asked Zhen Shi to help him up from the couch.

Then he said to Mrs. Zhen: "Bring a blank edict, I want to draw up a move."

Seeing that Cao Pi was unwell and wanted to make a move, Mrs. Zhen couldn't help dissuading him.

But in the face of Zhen's persuasion, Cao Pi said firmly:
"I, time is running out."

Cao Pi at this moment was much more calm than before.

A person is mortal, but as a king, as a father, he must arrange major events before he dies.

Just like his father-in-law.

Cao Pi's last words made Zhen burst into tears, but she quickly fetched a blank edict for Cao Pi.

Looking at the blank edict in front of him, Cao Pi secretly thought:

In terms of strategy and tactics, he is indeed not Mi Yang's opponent, but if he wants to win the world, can he rely solely on soldiers and horses?

With the nine-rank Zhongzheng system in place, the Great Wei will not perish!

Jiangdong, Jianye.

Not long ago, Sun Huan and Yu Fan, who were escorting the Han army, returned to Jianye City smoothly.

Faced with Sun Huan and Yu Fan who had been away for more than a year but suddenly returned, many people in Jianye City secretly breathed a sigh of relief after they returned.

In Jianye City, many important officials knew the reason why Sun Huan and Yu Fan were envoys to Jiaozhou.

And with the news of Zhuge Liang's pacification of Nanzhong, the whereabouts of Sun Huan and Yu Fan have always been worried by the dignitaries in Jianye City.

After all, the identities of Sun Huan and Yu Fan are not simple. One is a representative of the current Sun clan, and the other is a representative of the current Jiangdong gentry.

If there is a mistake between the two of them, it will undoubtedly be a big earthquake for Jiangdong's political situation.

It's just that the Jiangdong officials are also quite curious. Didn't these two go to Jiaozhou to fight with the Shihui army?
How did it end up that the two of them returned to Jianye under the escort of the Han army?
As for the internal and external reasons, Sun Huan and Yu Fan naturally kept their secrets secret.

But soon the eyes of Jiangdong's important ministers in Jianye City were attracted by a memorial table jointly signed by Sun Huan and Yu Fan after their return.

This memorial also directly caused a major earthquake in Jianye City.

The content of the memorial table is very simple. Sun Huan and Yu Fan suggested that Sun Quan, the lord of Jiangdong, take advantage of Cao Wei's southern expedition to Hanzhong to attack Hefei.

When the content of this memorial was spread in Jianye City, it caused an uproar in an instant.

Want to fight Hefei?
For most Jiangdong officials, Hefei is undoubtedly another nightmare for them besides the public security.

Since the Battle of Chibi, Sun Quan has personally led troops to attack Hefei several times, but each time the results ended in bleakness.

Even in the 20th year of Jian'an's attack on Hefei, the Wu army was defeated, and even Sun Quan was almost captured alive by Zhang Liao.

That battle created Zhang Liao's great prestige in Jiangdong, and directly shattered the confidence of the Jiangdong ministers going north.

Jiangdong's ministers admitted that after several years of recuperation, Jiangdong's vitality had recovered by [-]% or [-]%.

In addition, the Han and Wei dynasties are currently fighting fiercely in Liangzhou. It is indeed a great opportunity for Jiangdong to send troops to expand its territory. It's just that the world is so big, so why bother to attack Hefei?

Jingzhou looks pretty good too.

After all, from the information received so far, it can be known that Liangzhou Mi Yang is under siege by the Wei army.

It may not be long before the news that Liangzhou was captured by the Wei army will reach Jianye.

In this case, the best strategy for Jiangdong is undoubtedly to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

Not only many Jiangdong important ministers think so, even Sun Quan thinks so.

In the dormitory in Taiwei's mansion, Sun Quan was playing chess with his confidant Shi Yi, just thinking about the recent debates in the city, Sun Quan felt extremely upset.

Although many important officials in Jiangdong do not agree to send troops to attack Hefei, there are still some important officials who support Sun Huan and Yu Fan's proposal.

These important ministers are mainly Jiangbei courtiers.

Hefei is an important town in Huainan. Once Jiangdong can take Hefei, then the vast territory of Huainan may be taken by Jiangdong.

At that time, with the support of their hometown, the voice of Jiangbei courtiers in Jiangdong is bound to be greatly improved.

Of course, Sun Quan did not fail to see the benefits of sending troops to attack Hefei at this time, but Sun Quan preferred to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.

What disturbed Sun Quan the most was that the strategy proposed by Sun Huan and Yu Fan successfully aroused quarrels between Jiangbei faction and Jiangdong faction ministers within Jiangdong.

For Sun Quan, who likes balance, this is the last situation he wants to see.

Every time Sun Quan thought of the current chaos in Jianye City, on the one hand, Sun Quan was angry with Mi Yang and Zhuge Liang's sinister intentions, and on the other hand, he couldn't help becoming hesitant.

Sun Huan and Yu Fan met Sun Quan in private, and told Sun Quan the two poisonous schemes of Mi Yang.

Sun Quan was apprehensive about Mi Yang's two poisonous schemes.

It's just that Sun Quan is a typical character who doesn't shed tears when he sees the coffin. If he is asked to attack Hefei with all his troops from Jiangdong just because of the fear in his heart, it is not impossible, but it is estimated that Sun Quan will hesitate for a long time.

Shi Yi could see Sun Quan's irritability. As a close minister, he wanted to make some suggestions, but thinking of his hometown, he swallowed the words again.

In recent years, Sun Quan has become more and more suspicious.

Seeing that Shiyi was hesitant to speak, Sun Quan lost his interest in playing chess even more.

The irritability made Sun Quan overturn the chessboard in front of him, and said bitterly:

"Mi thief is really deceiving people too much, does he really think that he will obey his orders?
Jiangdong is not what it used to be! "

Shi Yi looked at the chess pieces scattered all over the floor, and he recalled a very unpleasant past event.

Just when Yixin felt something, the guard outside the door reported that the spies from Yizhou had brought the latest news about the battle in Liangzhou.

At this time, Yi's eyelids twitched wildly, and he had a very bad premonition in his heart.
