The elite did not migrate south

Chapter 738 That’s it?

Seeing his brother's angry look, Zhong Yu said calmly:

"Shiji, your father passed away when you were very young. Before he died, he entrusted you to me and asked me to take good care of you."

"Even if I didn't take good care of it, I still tried my best."

"Over the past few decades, you've been very successful without a single setback."

"I know you're talented and arrogant, but too much success isn't necessarily a good thing. You never consider the consequences of your actions. You're not afraid of mistakes or failures."

"If I leave, there will be no one to clean up after you. You must be more cautious before doing anything."

"If you encounter setbacks or experience failure, don't lose your spirit or become discouraged. Find a way to overcome it."

Zhong Hui couldn't bear to listen any longer, and he stood up with a bang.

"Brother, do you have to go to this extent to make me obey?"

Zhong Yu's face turned pale. He chuckled, "This is my self-torture trick. Isn't it brilliant?"

"It's not brilliant, it's lame, full of loopholes. Who would believe someone who was able to ride a horse yesterday and now says he's too sick to get out of bed?"

"Shi Ji, you are the chief minister. Before doing anything, you must consult with His Majesty. Don't just sit in the Shangshutai and issue orders. Even if you are doing it for His Majesty, you can't let him go. Otherwise, it will bring you great disaster."

"Okay, I get it. Then you stand up first!"

Zhong Hui said unhappily.

Zhong Yu then slowly sat up and looked at his brother.

Looking at his brother sitting up, Zhong Hui seemed even angrier.

"Isn't it people like my brother who hold me back when I'm doing great things?"

Zhong Yu pretended not to hear anything.

Zhong Hui left here angrily.

Sitting in the car, Liu Yuan looked at the very angry teacher and couldn't help but persuade him: "Teacher, you often advise me that as a person, we must not forget the principle of filial piety. We should not get angry because of the reprimands of elders."

Zhong Hui glanced at him and said, "I teach you this so that you can be filial to me! Not so that you can use this to reason with me!"

Liu Yuan didn't dare to say anything more.

Although Zhong Hui "exposed" his brother's self-torture, he did not talk about the reduction of his title again.

The ministers who were originally extremely shocked gradually calmed down.

Except Pei Xiu.

The emperor had been away from Luoyang for some time, and the ministers were not very clear about when he would return.

According to rumors, the emperor seemed to have the idea of traveling to Liangzhou.

The gossip in Luoyang was a nightmare for officials in Liangzhou.

When local officials learned that the emperor might come to Liangzhou, several of them fainted from fright.

Although the administrative situation in Yongzhou is not good, it may still be better than that in Liangzhou.

The more remote the place, the poorer the people, and the more brutal the officials.

Poor mountains and bad waters not only produce unruly people, but probably also bad officials.

They hurriedly began to prepare locally. The preparations were very complicated, and even the governor Sima Wang was no exception and was very busy.

But Cao Mao had no intention of going there. He stayed in Chang'an for six or seven days, frightening everyone in Liangzhou, and then he turned around and returned to Luoyang.

After what happened in Yongzhou, I think it will have a good time, but I don’t know how long it can last.

Cao Mao was sitting in the carriage, but he was still looking through the memorial in his hand.

The number of memorials to the Dianshifu has been increasing in recent days.

The majority of them are about the large tribes that were migrated.

According to their investigation, many prominent families in Wu had received assassination letters.
Cao Mao narrowed his eyes, his expression full of disdain.

A bunch of idiots!!

Did the medicine damage your brain?

Such an obvious frame-up?
Are you trying to draw the court's attention to those big clans?

Or do you want to frame the big families in Wu after assassinating me?
This is really low-level.

Cao Mao put down the documents and shook his head in frustration.

The rebels in my Great Wei are so useless, no wonder I can't govern the place well.

How come this isn’t an era where talented people emerge in large numbers?

If I had been born forty years earlier... Well, if I had been born forty years earlier, I would have been killed by a powerful family. It seems that all the talented people who have emerged in succession are from powerful families. Thinking about it this way, I can still accept these opponents now.

However, Cao Mao was very much looking forward to seeing how these people planned to assassinate him.

Do you want to emulate Zhang Liang and take action while you are traveling?
But this is not the Qin Dynasty. It has been so many years, and the protection measures for the king have been upgraded countless times. All these precedents are unlikely to succeed a second time.

Cao Mao couldn't help but grin.

If you don’t arrange it, I will arrange it myself!

"We must rid the world of this tyrant!"

At this moment, in an abandoned inn outside Luoyang, several people gathered together, their eyes full of murderous intent.

There was a map in front of them.

There are clear lines drawn on the map.

"This is the tyrant's return route. He's departing from Chang'an." The leader pointed at the map and then said seriously, "There are garrisons along the way, and there are also guards escorting him. I asked, and there are 2,300 fully armed guards, all of whom are the tyrant's confidants. Even if there is no one to help, even if we gather tens of thousands of people, there is no way we can kill him!"

"These guards are the most elite in the army. Even a night attack would have no chance of success."

"Also, this tyrant loves to travel, and he often visits a restaurant. However, our benefactors have told us that before he travels, his guards will first conduct an inspection of the area and set up a security presence. They will occupy rooftops and other possible hiding places along the way. Anyone approaching with a weapon or a package will be apprehended, and the restaurant is a prime target for their security."

“The palace is impossible to enter”

"So, the best way is to take action when he returns."

Listening to this person's words, the faces of several people became more solemn.

"If that's the case, how can we accomplish great things?"

The leader laughed, "This bastard is not without flaws."

"This tyrant usually seeks a good reputation and acts hypocritically. When he was in Yongzhou, he personally met with the people. If a citizen blocked his troops and asked to file a complaint, he would definitely meet with them in person."

"But they will certainly search you."

"What if it's a woman?"

"Women are no exception. Even if it's a child, they will search her body."

The leader listened to their argument and grinned. "Don't worry, everyone. I've already made all the arrangements. I've even found the people. All you have to do is follow my plan."

"The tyrant is unjust, and there are many people willing to help us!"

"The current situation is all because of the tyrant. As long as the tyrant dies, the world will be prosperous!"

"This is for the sake of the world. Please swear an oath with me."

Several people immediately swore an oath of blood and decided to eliminate this evil from the world.

At this moment, Cao Mao's troops were marching on the road in a mighty procession. Man Changwu stood beside Cao Mao, keeping an eye on him at all times.

Cao Mao received more and more memorials.

There seems to be big news from the Dianshi Mansion.

At the end of the Three Kingdoms period, people were notoriously bad at keeping secrets when using schemes, and the victim would often find out about someone's conspiracy before the defendant.

Just by reading the memorial from the Dianshifu, Cao Mao was able to guess the situation almost exactly.

He was still very happy in his heart.

Someone was planning to assassinate Cao Mao.

What can this show?

This means that the enemy can no longer compete with you in a normal way.

After being helpless against him in public, in government, and at the local level, they had no choice but to choose this most direct and stupid way to deal with him.

This was a good thing for Cao Mao.

Anyway, he didn't think this group of people could pose any threat to him.

Just as the army was advancing, suddenly some knights rushed towards them.

The knight quickly reined in his horse, dismounted and bowed.

Man Changwu stepped forward, listened to his words for a few words, then turned and came to Cao Mao's side.

"Your Majesty, a woman has stopped us on the road ahead and is crying. She says she has suffered a great injustice and wants to save her mother."

Cao Mao was stunned.

Tiying saves her father? ?
It is said that when Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty went out for a tour, a woman risked her life to block his carriage and then begged for forgiveness for her father.

Emperor Wen resolved a medical dispute in history.

Cao Mao frowned, and Man Changwu said, "Your Majesty, we just passed the city, and some civilians noticed our movements and came to block our way. That's understandable, but I still feel it's a little inappropriate."

Cao Mao smiled and said, "It's okay. Let's send someone over first."

Man Changwu didn't say much and directly ordered the person to be brought over. At the same time, he also sent a maid to go with him and search him.

Cao Mao waited for a long time and finally saw a soldier leading a young woman towards him.

The woman wiped her tears and walked towards here crying. She was extremely outstanding in both appearance and figure.

But the guards around her didn't even look at her.

She approached Cao Mao all the way, and just when Cao Mao was a little suspicious, Man Changwu suddenly stood in front of her.

Man Changwu lowered his head and stared at her fiercely. The woman was so scared that she took a few steps back.

Man Changwu began to examine her from head to toe, without concealing his gaze at all. After looking at her once, his eyes suddenly focused on her hairpin.

"Take off the hairpin."

Man Changwu spoke.

The woman was horrified. "I want to see His Majesty. I have a grievance! What do you want?!"

Man Changwu immediately reached out to take the hairpin. The woman was furious and her face changed immediately. She bent down to avoid Man Changwu's hand and then rushed towards Cao Mao.

At this moment, Man Changwu grabbed her shoulders, lifted her up, and threw her to the ground in mid-air.

In just a moment, the woman lay on the ground, motionless.

Cao Mao's expression remained calm, without any sign of surprise.

When the woman appeared, he knew she was an assassin.

Just because she is so beautiful. In this era, no beauty dares to swagger out of the city alone, even in front of the emperor.
