It only took Cao Mao one day to become familiar with all the people around him.
Regardless of the four eunuchs who were not of high origin, they were the guards of the Huangmen who were served by scholars.
Cao Mao has some great affinity.
In history, under the same strong supervision, he even instigated the rebellion of the people arranged by Sima Zhao and organized an armed force of more than 300 people in the palace.
These people accompanied him to death.
Cao Mao treats others very kindly and kindly, which is different from the big shots in the court.
Moreover, in this era, although the emperor's prestige is constantly declining, it has not yet fallen to the point where "the emperor is the one who has strong soldiers and horses."
Cao Mao's appeal among middle- and lower-class people is not weak either.
Probably because the general had not returned to the court yet, no one came to Cao Mao to pay homage to the fallen ancestors or issue any new edicts.
In the prison called the Palace, Cao Mao was left to fend for himself.
Cao Mao was not willing to be idle for a moment, so he took advantage of this period of time to lead those people around the palace. No matter who he saw, he would chat with them for a few words.
Soon, everyone in the palace knew the character of the new emperor.
He is not the same as the emperors of the past.
He is a warm and kind person.
They even proactively ask these people for their names.
Many of them had served Cao Fang for nearly ten years, and their names were not known to the emperor.
For these big shots, there is really no need to get close to these people.
Allowing them to serve you is the greatest kindness to them.
Somehow this matter spread to the temple, and most of the officials looked down upon it.
Why is the new emperor so humble?
In Yuancheng, you hang out with some despicable people all day long, and it is even more so in the palace. You should find a teacher for the emperor as soon as possible, so that he can know the truth and understand right and wrong.
...
Early in the morning, Cao Mao opened his eyes, yawned, and sat up.
Li Sheng hurriedly knelt down in front of him and wanted to put on his shoes.
"Bo Xun, just put on your shoes, I can do it myself!"
"How dare you."
Li Sheng knelt down and put on his shoes.
"Then I'll bother you!"
Li Sheng trembled all over, "Your Majesty, please don't scare me... This is your duty..."
Cao Mao stood up and went to wash up again.
Sitting in the hall, looking at the food in front of him, Cao Mao greeted him warmly.
"Bo Xun, Gongyu, Zishun, Yancheng! Come here, I can't finish these meals by myself, let's eat together!"
Li Sheng and others' legs were weak.
"Your Majesty, how can I dare to eat with you..."
"What's this? If you really don't dare, then take it aside and eat it. Look at you skinny ones, you're all taking it!"
Li Sheng hurriedly bowed again, "Your Majesty, I don't dare! This is going to be punished. Please spare us, Your Majesty!"
"Yan Cheng, go and close the door!"
"Who can punish you if you hide here and eat?"
"I'm protecting you, don't be afraid, just eat!"
Cao Mao was very strong, so how could they dare to refuse? The four of them knelt down and sat aside, their faces full of confusion, and they didn't dare to eat.
"There is no one here, so what are you afraid of? Just eat. Another day, let's bring Uncle Zhao Cheng and Jiao over to eat together!"
The four people did not speak, and their expressions were extremely complicated.
After finishing the meal, Cao Mao went out. He went to Zhaoyang Palace to visit the Queen Mother every day.
The Queen Mother didn't see him every time. Most of the time she saluted outside the palace. Even if it was to pay her respects, Cao Mao did this every day and never neglected.
Walking in the palace, Cao Mao was very enthusiastic. When he saw the chamberlains, guards, and soldiers in the distance, he would call each other's name and chat a few words.
It only took Cao Mao a few days to remember the names of quite a few people.
He visited the Queen Mother again, but still did not meet. After the visit, Cao Mao returned to his residence.
"Zhao Cheng!"
"His Majesty."
There are two Huangmen in front of Cao Mao, Zhao Cheng is one of them, and he is responsible for running errands for Cao Mao.
"You go to the residence of General Zhengxi again today and tell the general that I miss him very much and ask him to come to me as soon as possible."
"only!"
"Uncle Jiao, you'd better go to the General's Mansion, find Duke Jia, and tell him that I have something important to discuss with him and ask him to come as soon as possible."
"only!"
This is Cao Mao's daily life. He has gone to see Sima Zhao several times, but Sima Zhao has not come yet because he has something to do. The same is true for Jia Chong. Cao Mao sends Jiao Bo to see him every day.
If you can't go out, you have to let them in.
Afterwards, Cao Mao started wandering around the palace again. At this moment, he felt a bit like a monkey who had just been named the Monkey King. He had nothing to do all day long, just running around in the palace to get to know all kinds of different people. people, actively chatting with them, these people are frightened and afraid of themselves...
.......
In the palace of General Zhengxi.
Sima Zhao looked at Jia Chong in front of him, his eyes full of surprise.
"Jia Gong, what are you doing??"
At this moment, Jia Chong looked a little decadent, his face was pale, his eyes were blurred, and his mental state was not very good.
Jia Chong shook his head and said, "I'm fine...it's just that dealing with the affairs of the palace every day is a bit cumbersome."
"Huh? Cumbersome??"
Jia Chong pursed his lips, and he didn't know how to explain it.
Damn it, Guo!
I couldn't find anyone, I found a chatty one!
Every day, the chamberlain piled up the monitoring contents in front of his case, and Jia Chong felt that his breathing was not smooth.
Cao Mao talks a lot of nonsense. He runs around the palace and talks to everyone he sees. He must write down these words to prevent him from communicating with the outside world through people in the palace.
From time to time, he would also elaborate on his thoughts, such as why he hoped Zheng Chong would be his teacher, and why he hoped Sima Fu could be promoted to the nobility. These people also had to write it down.
These records will be delivered to Jia Chong at night, and Jia Chong does not dare to let others read them on his behalf, lest he miss something important.
This has resulted in Jia Chong's current workload being somewhat excessive.
He then recorded the important parts and sent them to Master Sima.
Come to think of it, the general's workload is now soaring at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This is Cao Mao deliberately sending blessings to the general.
Jia Chong was silent for a moment, and then said: "General, the emperor has been doing nothing these days, just playing around. If this continues, sooner or later something big will happen."
"I believe that a suitable teacher should be arranged as soon as possible to teach His Majesty so that he can study with peace of mind and not cause any more trouble."
Sima Zhao was suddenly embarrassed.
"Do we have to wait until brother comes back to discuss this? It's a very important matter..."
"What you don't know is that things in this temple are really complicated."
Sima Zhao said helplessly: "When a new king is established, he will naturally reward his ministers... This reward has not been finalized for a long time."
Jia Chong was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized, "It's because of what happened on the day he ascended the throne..."
"That's right, they are all staring at me now, but the Hunjun just said, "What kind of duke or king wants to reward and support the minister... But how can this really be the case?"
"The title of the temple cannot be given away easily. This will bring down the temple... These ministers don't care about the temple at all! They only care about their own interests!"
Sima Zhao said through gritted teeth.
The Sima family has long regarded Wei as their own, so they still care about these things. They are really solving local problems, increasing fiscal revenue, and cutting expenditures. After all, neither Sima Shi nor Sima Zhao I hope I broke something of my own.
But for the behemoths who are quietly rising at this moment, they don't care about these things at all.
It doesn't matter if you fish from the lake.
It was as if the temple and the emperor had nothing to do with them.
They want titles, land, fame, official titles, and more money! !
They don't care whether too many titles will cause financial difficulties for the country, and they don't care whether this burden will be passed on to the people in the end, or whether it will trigger a civil uprising. They don't even care about the emperor anymore, so there is still a need for it. Care about this?
Since Cao Mao announced the reward that day, many people have focused on this matter.
They even persuaded Sima Fu to accept the reward.
He also wrote to Sima Zhao, hoping that Sima Zhao would accept the reward.
Is their purpose to let the Sima family be rewarded? ? No, they just want to eat meat with the Sima family. They can persuade the Sima family to kill livestock for meat, and they can share the meat soup.
But this animal now belongs to the Sima family, how can it be slaughtered?
How cunning this guy is! ! !
ps: Cao Mao is a broken man, a typical bastard who doesn’t feel sorry for himself...and clan politics is definitely the most disgusting system and era in Chinese history. These imbecile people don’t care about the national interests at all. , completely selfish, a worm in the temple, I really can’t understand why some people say such nonsense as the Wei and Jin Dynasties are absurd and beautiful. The absurdity is complete, and the "beauty" is boiling in the pot!
