Chapter 22: Zhuge Chui, the First of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 22: The First Zhuge Chui of the Three Kingdoms

"Gaogui Township"

"Not here! Not here! Get out of here!"

The knight had just opened his mouth when the person in front of him shouted and slammed the door shut.

The door almost hit the knight in the face.

The knight's face was gloomy and he was almost about to draw his sword.

This knight was the one who had followed Wang Su and was rude to Guo Ze.

This knight, who was unruly, arrogant and looked down on everyone, now encountered palace guards who were even more rude than them.

The people brought by Guo Jian didn't care about their identity as knights at all.

The knight stared at the closed door in front of him with resentment, then turned and left.

The person who had just closed the door now appeared in the inner room.

Guo Jian was eating barbecue with big mouthfuls, while Cao Mao was sitting beside him obediently.

The man hurriedly reported, "General, Wang Su has sent another knight. I told him to go back!"

Guo Jian burst into laughter.

"That's how it should be!"

"I must humiliate him and let him know what it feels like to be shut up in seclusion! Get out now! Keep guarding!"

"only!"

The man walked out.

Cao Mao, still looking worried, asked, "Uncle, what should we do if Wang Su writes a letter to the general speaking ill of you?"

Looking at this useless Youzi, Guo Jian's face was full of dissatisfaction.

"You are the future emperor! How can you be so afraid?"

"Who the hell is Wang Su? What are you afraid of him doing?"

"I have already written to my brother, accusing Wang Su of shutting himself in and not seeing anyone!"

"My brother is the general's son-in-law. How can I be afraid of Wang Su?"

Guo Jian was so confident that Cao Mao almost applauded him.

Cao Mao was so moved that he grilled a few more skewers for Guo Jian.

This is my uncle!

Guo Jian burped, patted his chest, and said, "Mao, don't worry, your uncle is here! I command the palace army. How dare Wang Su provoke me?"

"Hahaha, uncle is right! Come on, uncle, give me another one!"

"With me and your uncle here, you can rest assured! Look at the world."

"General!!"

Just when Guo Jian was about to continue bragging, the man from before broke in again.

At this moment, he no longer had the smug look he had just now, and his face was full of fear.

"General! Disaster!"

Guo Jian quickly stood up and asked, "What happened?"

"Someone from the Sima family is here! He says he's here on the orders of the general!"

"what?!"

Guo Jian suddenly panicked and was at a loss.

"Could it be that you're right? That old dog Wang Su wrote a letter of impeachment?"

Cao Mao frowned. Someone from the Sima family?

Who is coming?
Could it be Sima Fu coming?

He looked at the frightened Guo Jian and said, "Uncle, this person is not here with good intentions. You are a brave man. If he speaks rudely, you might get into a fight with him. Please go to the back hall first. I will go to greet him personally!"

Guo Jian was already afraid, so he was of course happy to hear what Cao Mao said.

But Cao Mao usually calls me uncle, and he just boasted about it, so he just hid away.
Guo Jian really couldn't afford to lose face. Although he was afraid, he was still conflicted.

Cao Mao hurriedly saluted, "Uncle! Please go back! How can I bear to let you offend others for my sake? If you don't leave, I can only leave first."

"Okay, okay, I'll go back first!"

Guo Jian came down the stairs and looked at Cao Mao with a more kind look.

"Don't be too scared. If anything happens, just shout for help. I won't let him hurt you."

"Thank you uncle!"

Guo Jian led his men away.

Cao Mao hurried towards the front hall.

I saw a young man standing in the front hall, surrounded by many knights. The young man was handsome, with long flowing hair and his hands below his knees.
Cao Mao was stunned for a moment, and then quickly understood the other party's identity.

Emperor Wu of Jin! Sima Yan!!

Cao Mao immediately changed his face, it was a passionate, youthful and cheerful face.

He laughed loudly and walked quickly towards Sima Yan.

Before Sima Yan could react, Cao Mao grabbed his hands and looked at him warmly, "Is this Anshi? I've heard of your name for a long time! I didn't expect to meet you today!!"

"What a strange man indeed!" "What long hair!"

As Cao Mao spoke, he reached out and touched his long hair. His hair was of good quality and very soft.

Sima Yan was stunned.

Who the hell are you? Why are you touching my hair?

"I am Sima Yan, Your Excellency is..."

"I am Cao Mao!"

Sima Yan was shocked and remembered his father's teachings, so he hurriedly leaned over to pay his respects.

Cao Mao quickly grabbed him.

"Anshi, why are you like this? I treat you as a close friend whom I want to make friends with, but you treat me as an outsider?"

I don’t even know you!
Sima Yan was still in a daze when Cao Mao pulled his hand and led him towards the inner room.

"An Shi's presence today brings such glory to my humble home. I must have some wine and meat with you. How fortunate I am!"

"Come here, bring the best wine in the house!"

Cao Mao shouted, and when Sima Yan was dragged into the inner room, he finally reacted and quickly interrupted Cao Mao.

"Your Majesty, please enjoy your drink. I have come here on orders. I have heard that Your Majesty has repeatedly refused to ascend the throne."

Cao Mao sighed deeply.

"I have had a spiritual connection with Anshi for a long time, so I will not hide it from you today."

"Anshi, I don't have the talent that the wise men in the court say I have. I'm just a mediocre person. How can I be qualified to inherit the great cause?"

"How can we unify the world and restore peace?"

"The wisdom of King Pengcheng is known to everyone in the world. I think the general should support King Pengcheng as emperor!"

Sima Yan shook his head, "You can't say that."

"There are many talented people in the government today. With a loyal and righteous man like my uncle assisting us, what do you have to worry about?"

It's your uncle I'm worried about!

Sima Yan continued, "Look at that incompetent ruler of Shu. He was incompetent and favored eunuchs. Even he was able to govern Shu well because he had the assistance of wise men like Zhuge Liang."

"what???"

This time, it was Cao Mao's turn to be confused.

Zhuge Wuhou?

What is your composition?

You are Sima Yi's grandson, shouldn't you call Zhuge a country bumpkin?
Seeing Cao Mao in front of him dumbfounded, Sima Yan realized something and quickly said with a smile: "Don't misunderstand me, I am not saying that Your Majesty is a tyrant, nor am I comparing you to Liu Chan."

"No, you just mentioned Zhuge Wuhou?"

"Yup!"

Sima Yan's eyes suddenly brightened, and he said seriously, "Zhuge Wuhou, what a talent! He is both civil and military, talented in both literature and martial arts, and righteous and moral. I only regret that I was born twenty years too late."

What else? What are you going to do? Surrender to Shu?

Sima Yan talked endlessly about his admiration for Zhuge Liang, but Cao Mao just thought it was outrageous.

"Don't you think Zhuge Wuhou is the most capable minister in the world?"

Sima Yan asked back.

Cao Mao was silent for a moment, "I still think Duke Xuanwen is the most capable minister."

The person Duke Xuanwen was referring to was Sima Yi.

Cao Mao did think that Sima Yi was much more powerful than Zhuge Liang. Think about how many Wei generals Zhuge Liang had killed during his many years of attacking the Wei State.

In five northern expeditions, only Zhang He and Wang Shuang were killed!

Sima Yi killed Cao Shuang, Cao Xi, Cao Xun, He Yan, Deng Yang, Ding Mi, Bi Gui, Li Sheng, Huan Fan and others in the Gaopingling Incident.

They will also be executed along with their entire clan!

What a huge victory this is! How could Zhuge Liang compare to it?

Sima Yan smiled and said, "My grandfather is indeed a great man, with great strategies, but his governance is not as good as Zhuge Liang!"

Cao Mao wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Since you, a filial son, said so, I'll just take it as the fact that you are right."

The topic was diverted by Cao Mao, and the two began to comment on the many talented people in the late Han Dynasty.

The two are of the same age, and after chatting, they actually have a lot of common topics.

Compared with his father and brother, Sima Zhao was a sunny and cheerful boy, while compared with his many elders, Sima Yan was simply a gentle and enthusiastic little lamb.

Of course, this is only true for him who is a little immature at the moment, and only when comparing with the elders in his family.

"Anshi, hearing about you is not as good as meeting you in person. After meeting you today, I finally know that the rumors are true. You are a true talent! Zhuge Wuhou is no better than this!"

Sima Yan was shocked, "How can I be compared with Wu Hou?"

"If I inherit the great cause, then you will be my Zhuge Wuhou!"

"We two brothers, ruler and subject, will work together to unify the world and achieve unparalleled fame!!"
