"What we are going to teach today..."
Wang Su picked up the book, only to find that Cao Mao was no longer as enthusiastic as usual. He even distanced himself and was secretly looking at him.
When he found Wang Su looking at him, he quickly lowered his head.
Although Wang Su usually hates this guy the most.
I also hope that he will stay as far away from me as possible, but I still feel a little suspicious in my heart.
Wang Su was very aware of this Zhuzi's ability to cause trouble. Although he was suspicious, he had no interest in asking.
He spoke seriously about the contents of the book in his hand.
Luoyang has been very unstable recently.
The ministers submitted a letter asking for a reward.
Zhuge Dan's mansion was forcibly broken into. Tingwei Zhong Yu never attacked the scholars, but his subordinate Pei Xiu pretended to be crazy and was unwilling to arrest him.
And an article called "Empty City Bird" caused an uproar.
The article "Empty City Bird" seemed to refer to the emperor, but also to the scholars of the dynasty. Ever since he was taken out by Ruan Ji, it had completely become popular in Luoyang.
The scholars chanted and mocked the rulers one after another.
Although Du Yu advised Sima Zhao that the solution could be solved by ignoring it, Sima Zhao, who was so angry that he was troubled by everything, still ordered a ban on this poem and no one was allowed to sing it, otherwise he would be imprisoned.
Sima Zhao's ban made this poem even more popular. To put it simply, it broke the circle and moved from Luoyang to the north and south.
I had no interest in it at first, but it turned out that even the temples were banned, but this aroused the rebellious spirit of the scholars. The scholars of Wei and Jin Dynasties were rebellious by nature, and they had to do whatever they were not allowed to do. Sima Zhao's behavior undoubtedly added to the Made a fire.
The chaos in Luoyang was unprecedented when the emperor was deposed.
Apart from the chaos on the surface, there are even more things going on behind the scenes.
Wang Su could see clearly that at least two of these three things were caused by this person.
In the case of Zhuge Dan, the temple seems to have not found out who was responsible.
I don’t know who is brave enough to dare to reveal such a major event. Aren’t you afraid that Master Sima will behead the clan when he comes back?
Wang Su thought about these things in his mind and continued today's class.
But his subsequent teaching was not too smooth. Cao Mao, who was usually extremely intelligent and showed a strong talent in Confucian classics, was timid at this moment and could not say anything.
This made Wang Su very angry.
After all, he still carries the identity of a scribe.
After Cao Mao failed to catch his words many times, Wang Su finally couldn't help it anymore.
"Your Majesty has been busy with poetry recently, but has he forgotten the meaning of classics?"
"Your Majesty, classics are the right way, poetry is just a trivial matter, how can you put the cart before the horse?"
Cao Mao scratched his head and said, "That's not the case... My lord, it's just that my uncle said that you are a guilty person and I am not allowed to get close to you."
"uncle?"
Wang Su was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "Is he Guo Xuande's useless son?"
He obviously didn't take Guo Jian seriously, and said arrogantly: "Guo is the guilty one. He was pardoned by Emperor Liezu. He didn't think about his duty and couldn't keep his inner greed. Haha..."
Wang Su probably also knew why Guo was so hostile to him.
Regarding Guo's behavior, Wang Su just said disdainfully: "How can a sparrow understand the ambition of a swan?"
Wang Su hurriedly completed today's teaching and left immediately.
Shortly after he left, Cao Mao went to see Guo Jian.
"Uncle, Wang Su has left. I am going to continue to entertain Sima Wang and try to get him to leave within these few days!"
Cao Mao said very seriously.
Guo Jian was naturally very supportive. He patted Cao Mao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You can go ahead and do it, but don't be afraid of causing trouble. Your uncle will help you!"
Cao Mao hesitated and said: "Just now Wang Su mentioned you to me..."
"oh?"
Guo Jian narrowed his eyes, "What did he say?"
"He said you were a bird."
"The old dog bullied me too much!!"
Guo Jian cursed again.
Cao Mao cheered for the two of them as usual, and returned to the west hall happily.
As soon as he reached the entrance of the palace, he saw Yin Damu with a serious face, and the soldiers around him also had extremely solemn expressions.
Cao Mao was stunned and seemed to realize something.
When he passed the palace gate.
Sure enough, one was standing outside the door.
The man was so skinny that it seemed like only bones and a layer of skin were left on his body.
His face was tied with cloth, covering his left eye.
At this moment, he stared at Cao Mao in front of him with his only remaining right eye.
Cao Mao subconsciously felt weak in his legs and almost cursed!
My great-grandfather!
How come he is here? ?
Why aren't you dead yet? !
And Jia Chong, who had not seen each other for many days, was standing next to Master Sima with his body bent, and his expression looked even more complicated.
This is the second time that Master Sima has frightened Cao Mao like this.
He always appears in places no one expects, elusive and very scary.
And the look in his eyes seemed as if he was going to order Cao Mao to be chopped into meat paste at the next moment.
Cao Mao put away his inner fear and looked overjoyed. He hurried forward and grabbed Master Sima's hand.
"The general is here!!"
"Why didn't you tell me? I can go and greet you!"
Everyone was shocked.
Even Jia Chong was shocked.
He could remember that when Cao Mao met Master Sima for the first time, he was so frightened that he turned pale and did not dare to say a word, let alone hold the general's hand and speak like this.
A trace of surprise flashed in Master Sima's eyes, but he quickly calmed down and allowed Cao Mao to hold his hand.
"I dare not trouble Your Majesty."
Different from when they first met, Cao Mao is no longer a small clan, but the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Master Sima can no longer let him maintain the etiquette of kneeling and not getting up.
"How can you say it's troublesome? The general is an important minister in the temple. When I meet the general, I feel like a fish in water, just like Emperor Wu feels like Dinglinghou! Emperor Ruwen feels like Duke Xuanwen!"
Cao Mao immediately started chattering mode.
He began to express his admiration for the general endlessly.
Master Sima now understood why Jia Chong sent him so many letters.
"His Majesty."
"I came to the palace to take care of important matters."
"Shiji, take your Majesty to the East Hall temporarily."
After Master Sima gave the order, a man walked up to Cao Mao, looked at him curiously, and then said with a smile: "Your Majesty, please follow me to the East Hall."
Shiji?
Zhong Hui!
Cao Mao's eyes lit up, and he did not stay here to pester Master Sima, but followed Zhong Hui and left.
Master Sima looked at the chamberlain in front of him, Huang Men. He turned around and walked towards the west hall. The soldiers escorted these people and walked towards the west hall together.
Cao Mao walked in front of Zhong Hui without looking back.
Master Sima suddenly appeared here and asked him to leave. Then he must be here to leak secrets.
Did Jia Chong inform Master Sima that he knew about Zhuge Dan's itinerary?
If he had informed, Master Sima must have known that someone had tipped him off, and he would have imprisoned everyone in the palace, imprisoned himself in the west hall, kept himself at home, and then slowly examined them.
Jia Chong probably didn't tell the truth.
That Sima Shi came to the palace not for himself, but for Jia Chong!
Because only Jia Chong knew his movements, he became the biggest suspect of Sima Shi. Sima Shi may not suspect that Jia Chong leaked the secret, but he suspected that the leaker was around Jia Chong.
He wanted to know whether Jia Chong was hiding something, and he would probably have to compare what the chamberlains copied with what Jia Chong submitted!
So, he brought Jia Chong here!
Therefore, Jia Chong's face is so ugly!
"What is your Majesty thinking?"
Zhong Hui suddenly asked.
Cao Mao was alert, but he shook his head hastily, "I didn't think about anything, I didn't think about anything."
"Your Majesty is wondering why the general came to the palace?"
Zhong Hui asked again.
Cao Mao smiled bitterly and asked hesitantly: "Yes, why did the general suddenly appear in the palace? Did I do something wrong?"
Zhong Hui had a smile in his eyes.
"The general comes here for his own purpose."
"Luoyang is really unstable these days. Maybe the people around you will know something."
"General, I'm just going to question them and ask them if they are related to what happened in Luoyang!"
Cao Mao's face was full of worry, "If they make a big mistake, will I be involved?"
Zhong Hui paused, and then said calmly: "Your Majesty, you are the Emperor of the Wei Dynasty. No one can implicate you. However, if there is something to hide, and the general finds out... Well, That’s ultimately not good.”
Zhong Hui walked quickly to Cao Mao, lowered his head and stared into his eyes.
"There are always people who think they are very smart and look down on the wise men in the world."
"Attempting to discredit General Zhengnan through some unrealistic rumors... thinking that by contacting Shi Yushi, he can sit back and relax..."
Zhong Hui held his sword and asked with a smile: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
