Cao Mao looked at everyone, his eyes lingering on the two Huangmen officials for a moment.
Now Cao Mao is waiting for the two people he desires to come and replace these two idiots.
In front of the Queen Mother, Cao Mao naturally couldn't praise those two people too much.
The Queen Mother believed that Zhang Hua was just a minor celebrity who was good at literary works. This was true. He was indeed very good at literary works, but he was not just good at literary works.
This person has a strong memory, is knowledgeable, and knows everything about the world, both ancient and modern.
An Shi once asked Zhang Hua about the palace system of the Han Dynasty and the situation of thousands of households in Jianzhang Palace. Zhang Hua responded so fluently that the audience forgot their tiredness.
He drew a pattern on the ground again, and it turned out to be exactly the same, which astonished the officials.
This person is the most capable minister in front of An Shi and his son, and few people can compare with him.
Ruan Ji's evaluation of his "talent as a king's assistant" is not all flattery. If he can meet a qualified king, he may not be a real king's assistant. In the hands of An Shi and his son, he can accomplish anything. This is not comparable to ordinary ministers.
And the other person is Wei Shu.
He did not lie to the Queen Mother. This man was indeed tall, good at drinking, and dull.
However, this person just doesn't express his talents. It doesn't mean he has no talents. He is a genius!
He is a representative figure of late bloomer.
He has been despised since he was a child. His tribe even thought that he could not be a small official in charge of hundreds of households because he did not look very smart.
When he said he was going to take the exam, people in the clan said he was uneducated and should not be embarrassed.
This person studied on his own and studied a scripture for a hundred days, thus successfully passing the exam
Later, Zhong Yu held an archery competition. When the number of people was insufficient, he asked him to fill in the number. As a result, this person hit the target with perfect accuracy, which almost shocked Zhong Yu's eyes.
Finally, he was promoted to Situ.
As for these two future capable ministers, one is still a doctor in Taichang and is responsible for teaching students, but has not yet been recommended to Sima Zhao. The other is about to resign and go home because Shang Shulang has to be screened and has not yet been recommended by Zhong Yu. promoted.
This is the best time to get them. If you are too late, you will miss it.
Of these two people, one acts in a hurry, the other acts in a slow manner, one is tough and the other is gentle. The two complement each other and are simply the best right and left hands.
Cao Mao just walked towards the west hall.
Along the way, I just feel that everything seems to be no different from the past, and at the same time, I feel that everything is different from the past.
Cao Mao walked slowly, looking at the soldiers and eunuchs who were hurriedly walking in the distance.
"Your Majesty, what happened?"
Husband Xu couldn't help but ask.
Cao Mao smiled and said, "I heard that the general is seriously ill and the Queen Mother will take charge."
At that moment, he saw husband Xu's eyes light up. Not only him, but the other eunuchs couldn't help it anymore and almost started cheering.
The faces of Sima Hui and Sima Ma turned pale in an instant, and they no longer looked as arrogant as usual.
Mr. Xu asked tremblingly: "Your Majesty, what should we do?"
"What should we do? What does this matter have to do with us? Everything will be business as usual."
Cao Mao said, turned around and walked towards the west hall.
By this moment, the content of the court meeting was gradually spreading, and the policies proposed by Lu Yu had already caused an uproar among the entire wealthy families in Luoyang.
The general's concession allowed the ministers to see clearly the reality of Sima Division.
This is why the ministers dared to come to the Queen Mother and even directly dismissed Sima Xun.
Although Master Sima showed great strength, he still showed his weakness.
The so-called gatekeepers are like this, constantly testing and forcing, they will not know how to be satisfied, nor will they stop until they have completely swallowed their prey.
Now that they know Sima Shi's powerlessness, the officials will naturally not be polite.
For a time, the whole of Luoyang became lively. Knights ran wildly through the streets. There were loud sounds of horse hooves everywhere. Countless knights left the city gate or shuttled between the roads.
The major families are currently discussing their next plans, and at the same time sending people to awaken their strength in various places, lest it be too late when they really confront the Sima family.
They passed the news to all parts of Wei Dynasty, so that their clans could prepare accordingly.
Everyone seemed busy and visiting each other.
And Wang Xiang also started to visit at this moment.
However, he did not go to Lu Yu or Cao Mao.
He came to Chen Qian's mansion.
"Mr. Chen"
Wang Xiang saluted.
Chen Qian, on the other hand, sat in the upper position with a dark face and didn't even get up.
"It's done, right?"
Wang Xiang was not angry, and sat beside him with a smile, "Yes, our big task has been accomplished."
Chen Qian didn't look happy at all. Unlike Wang Xiang, Chen Qian only cared about personal gains and losses. This matter had not passed through his own hands. Even if it was done, he would not be happy. He even felt very angry.
Wang Xiang seemed unable to see his inner dissatisfaction and asked: "How do you know?"
"Someone came to my mansion yesterday and said that the general ordered me to organize the laws. After he gave the instructions, he stayed in the mansion and did not leave."
"I knew at that time that I was suspected by the general."
"But just now, the man received the order and left here in panic."
"I knew in my heart that the prince had finally accomplished something great."
Although Chen Qian was dissatisfied, he couldn't vent it at the moment.
Chen Qian is such a smart person. He naturally understands that he is suspected because of Zheng Miao.
Chen Qian contacted Zheng Miao, which was entirely his own behavior. In the end, he just informed Wang Xiang. Wang Xiang cannot be blamed for this matter. If he is to blame, he can only blame himself for being too anxious. Contacting Master Sima too early was a thorn in the side.
Now he puts on a bad face because he is simply dissatisfied with the result.
Of course, it is actually expressing one's own demands.
Wang Xiang said seriously: "Under the leadership of Lu Gong, this matter has been completed, and Situ Gong also made a lot of efforts."
Chen Qian immediately put away the dissatisfaction on his face and hurriedly ordered the food and drinks.
Smart people don't need to say too much.
Chen Qian was dissatisfied with the result, and Wang Xiang naturally did not want to hand over the results to others.
At this moment, the two of them can still become allies and snatch their own interests from the hands of established wealthy families like Lu Yugaorou.
The two of them started eating, and Wang Xiang said slowly: "Although the general retreated this time, he will definitely launch a counterattack."
"They have contributed the most, but I am afraid that the general will attack them first."
Chen Qian nodded, "If that's the case, we need more help. After all, they have worked hard and have great kindness to the country. How can we let them be bullied by the general?"
"Well, actually it's not just the two of them. It seems to me that Shangshu Xun also has other ideas, and he also wants to help them to prevent them from being bullied by the general."
"So, Duke Lu and Duke Gao don't have to worry about the general at all. There are so many talented people to help them."
Wang Xiang was silent for a while, and then said: "I'm afraid that some ministers will compete for benefits, which will interrupt the big things halfway."
Chen Qian shook his head, "Who dares? Nowadays, whoever sabotages such a thing for selfish reasons is the common enemy of the world."
Wang Xiang laughed, "You're right."
"I just came to see you. Since you're fine, I'm going to see Mr. Zheng. Do you want to go with me?"
"OK."
With just a few words, the two formed an alliance again.
In Luoyang, the same thing happened countless times. After losing the strong suppression of the general, the ministers began to form alliances with each other and began to actively fight for their own interests.
Cao Mao, on the other hand, sat calmly in the west hall, eating fruits and drinking tea, looking unconcerned.
"Your Majesty, will you do nothing?"
Cheng Ji stood next to Cao Mao, looking at the emperor who was enjoying himself, and felt very puzzled.
Is it too early to start enjoying it now? ?
Luoyang is experiencing drastic changes. Isn’t it time to do something? Like canonizing my brother and me or something like that
Cao Mao laughed and said, "Chengjun, don't be anxious. This is a fight between many ministers and the general. It has nothing to do with us. We can just watch them fight with peace of mind."
"I understand what you mean, but isn't this a good opportunity?"
Cao Mao asked, "What do you think we should do?"
Cheng Ji thought for a long time, then smiled and replied: "I listen to your Majesty."
"Look, even you can't see how it will be beneficial to us, so why should we participate? It's better to wait with peace of mind. There will definitely be a better opportunity, what do you think?"
"Is such that."
Chengji was thoughtful.
Cao Mao looked outside the hall again. He knew that at this moment, many families must be frantically looking for allies and starting to think about dividing their interests. As for the position of the general, no one knows how many people have already targeted it in advance.
As for Master Sima, Cao Mao didn't know what he was doing.
Most likely, we need to control the central army in time. Before the officials can react, we can replace the generals of the famous families with our own people and control a few more armies. However, this matter is not that easy to handle. .
By the way, Zhong Hui disappeared for a long time, Master Sima wouldn't use him to arrange any back-up, right?
Cao Mao thought a lot, but he was not worried. He even hoped that Sima Shi could cheer up and reshape the family alliance.
It's a pity that the current situation is really unfriendly to Master Sima.
Within a day, his allies turned into wolves.
It used to be that he led the aristocratic families to gnaw at the Wei Dynasty. Now it is the Queen Mother who directly skips the middlemen and leads the aristocratic families by herself. It is not right. She is directing the aristocratic families to gnaw at the Wei Dynasty. She herself has made a clear relationship with the clan and has no gnawing. My teeth are full of food.
She is not just instructing the aristocratic family to gnaw at Da Wei, she wants to let the aristocratic family gnaw on the Sima family as well.
Speaking of which, the Queen Mother was actually the most ruthless person in the Wei Dynasty.
