Zhong Hui probably also knew that he could not convince Cao Mao to join forces with the general at once.
He didn't say anything more. After analyzing the current situation for Cao Mao, he hurriedly left here.
After he left, Cao Mao looked at his two Huang Mengmen.
Zhang Hua was thoughtful and Wei Shu was in a trance.
Cao Mao asked: "What do you think?"
Zhang Hua glanced at Wei Shu and saw that the other party had no intention of speaking, and then said: "Your Majesty, Zhong Hui, should not be trusted."
"Oh? Do you think this person is lying to me?"
"That's not the case. He may really want to assist His Majesty. However, this person is arrogant and domineering. If Your Majesty trusts him too much, it will definitely cause disaster."
Cao Mao smiled bitterly, "What Maoxian said is right. It's just that this person has an unruly personality. If I had hesitated just now, this person would definitely be resentful, and he would be plotted to kill him."
Zhang Hua frowned, "Your Majesty, don't worry, Zhong Hui is no better than Yilang. If your Majesty feels that this person has evil intentions, just remove him!"
Cao Mao shook his head, "I would rather fight head-on with the general than let someone like Zhong Hui hold a grudge behind his back."
He looked at Wei Shu again.
"what do you think?"
Wei Shu immediately replied: "The talented people in the world should assist Your Majesty. Is this something that needs to be discussed specifically?"
Cao Mao laughed immediately.
He also understood that although Zhang Hua, the current two great sages, was smart, he was still too young and had not been tempered. He had not yet grown to the point where he would become the pillar of the country in the future, but Wei Shu had already shown signs of that.
Wei Shu's meaning is very clear: Your Majesty does not need to care about this matter at all.
Cao Mao had the same idea, he was not in a hurry at all.
The ones who should be anxious now are Sima Shi and Sima Zhao. What are you anxious about?
Now jump out and join forces with Master Sima? Then serve as a pawn for Master Sima and compete with the Queen Mother?
Cao Mao dismissed this.
The problem of this clan is not so easy to solve. The path he wants to take is different from the path Sima Shi and others want to take.
This matter of dealing with gate valves must be a long and complicated process.
He also has a long-term plan for this, and it is even related to Shuwu and the barbarians outside.
He should not be used by the Sima family, but the Sima family should be used by himself.
Cao Mao is not worried about the future. Now, how much worse can it be? Is it worse than the one who traveled to Nandu in his clothes?
At least An Shi and his son have no chance to come up again, and the leader of the family has to go through many layers of battles and is appointed by the most capable person.
Besides, I am different from An Shi and the others. Before the aristocratic family has grown to its peak, the middle and lower-class families still have power that they can use, and the Queen Mother can also control it here.
Cao Mao stood up and said, "You are right, this is what should be done!"
"Ignore it, let's go to the east hall!"
Today is the day for class again.
When Cao Mao arrived in the east hall, Wang Xiang had not come yet because the class time had not yet come, but Cao Mao would always wait for the teacher here in advance. The emperor's respectful attitude towards the teacher was also praised by many people.
Cao Mao held the book and read it quietly.
The two Huangmenmen were standing at the door.
Zhang Hua asked: "Wei Gong, do you think these things are really the work of His Majesty alone?"
Wei Shu lowered his head and looked at Zhang Hua, "I don't know."
Zhang Hua couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "If it is true as Zhong Hui said, your Majesty is truly a holy king who has never been seen in a thousand years."
After having formal contact with His Majesty, Zhang Hua had a very good impression of His Majesty.
Today, he was even more shocked when he heard Zhong Hui's words.
But at the same time, he also began to think about it. If it was true what the ministers said, could the Wei Dynasty last long?
While young Zhang Hua was pondering these things, Wang Xiang had already arrived.
Zhang Hua and Wei Shu quickly moved out of the way.
Cao Mao hurriedly stood up and bowed before saying, "Teacher!"
Wang Xiang frowned, his face not very pretty.
"What happened?"
Cao Mao asked doubtfully.
Wang Xiang sat down and said quietly: "The lieutenant colonel deliberately made things difficult and wouldn't let me in."
Cao Mao was very surprised and stood up suddenly, "What does he mean?"
"How dare you be rude to my teacher?!"
"Your Majesty, don't be angry."
Wang Xiang asked Cao Mao to sit down, and then said seriously: "Your Majesty, you don't know that this Gao Situ is also very ambitious. He appointed his son to serve as a lieutenant in the palace, visited the Queen Mother every day, and appointed his relatives and confidants to serve in the palace. Even passers-by know his thoughts in both internal and external affairs!"
"It's okay for me to be treated like this. I'm just afraid that the Queen Mother will mistrust the thief and ruin this great situation. Gao Rou's eldest son is now an official under Sima Master."
"Your Majesty, what should we do?"
Cao Mao listened to Wang Xiang's words and felt very clear in his heart.
Gao Rou competes with Lu Yu for power, and Wang Xiang is Lu Yu's man in the eyes of the ministers. Gao Rou does not want others to come into contact with the Queen Mother and the Emperor, so she arranges for her cronies to actively enter the palace.
However, there are two points. First, Gao Rou cares about the Queen Mother, not herself.
Secondly, before the matter is finished, it is impossible for Gao Rou to order his cronies to cut off the communication between the Queen Mother and the ministers.
If he dares to do this, he will be the next one to be beaten by the ministers.
Besides, Wang Xiang was just here to teach him lessons as usual, so there was no reason for Gao Gao to stop him for no reason.
He was not going to see the Queen Mother.
If you think about it seriously, this is probably what Wang Xiang said to Gao Danduo on purpose.
As for Gao Dan's straightforward temper, he must have had a dispute with Wang Xiang, and then in Wang Xiang's case, Gao Rou sent his cronies to cut off the connection between the ministers and the Queen Mother and the Emperor.
"Gao Situ, how dare you do this?!"
After hearing what Cao Mao said, Wang Xiang started his accusation again.
"Your Majesty, you are the only one who can see the Queen Mother now. Please tell the Queen Mother not to trust evil people. When Master Sima did evil, many people helped him, but now he behaves like this. It's really Disgraceful!”
Wang Xiang didn't hide it at all and criticized Gao Rou directly.
"Teacher! Please don't worry! I will definitely not take this matter lightly!"
After receiving the emperor's assurance, Wang Xiang continued today's course.
It’s still the same old stuff, all empty talk about how to govern a country.
After telling this, Wang Xiang just talked about the situation.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Master Sima was seriously ill and could no longer get up. Sima Fu and Sima Zhao were at odds with each other. Sima Fu had already left the General's Mansion. Sima Zhao later sent people to invite him several times, but he was unwilling to go and even wrote to ask for it. Resign from office"
Oh, are you ready to activate your backup plan?
Isn't it too late to enable it now?
Looking at Wang Xiang in front of him, Cao Mao also knew in his heart that the aristocratic family would want Master Sima dead, but they would not necessarily punish his clan, because the Sima family was also a member of the aristocratic family, and the clan did not want execution of the clan to become a routine. If you can kill the Sima family today, will it be your turn tomorrow?
"I see, this is a good thing."
"Yes, I heard that Mr. Lu is going to pay a visit, and he wants to come with him to deal with Gao Situ."
Wang Xiang clicked on both Lu Yu and Gao Rou, as if to tell Cao Mao that these two people were not good people.
Cao Mao followed his train of thought, showing some worry.
Wang Xiang then said: "Your Majesty, don't worry. There are still capable ministers like Chen Qian and Zheng Miao in the court. They all want to meet you and are willing to fully assist Your Majesty."
In these days, more and more people claim to want to assist the emperor.
Cao Mao discussed with Teacher Wang for a long time before sending him out.
After Wang Xiang left, Cao Mao was not in a hurry to go to Zhaoyang Palace. He asked Zhang Hua to call Gao Dan over.
Gao Dan quickly walked into the east hall, his face even worse than Wang Xiang's.
"Gaojun, please sit down."
Gao Dan thanked the emperor and sat aside.
Cao Mao asked seriously: "I heard that you just stopped my teacher and didn't allow him to come in. Why is that?"
When Gao Gao heard this, he became furious and said, "Your Majesty! Don't believe his lies!"
"I prayed to him, but he asked me what I was doing here."
"I replied that I would protect His Majesty, but he actually asked me where I was?!"
"I'm so angry that I just had a few arguments with him!"
Sure enough, just as Cao Mao thought, Wang Xiang was deliberately creating a conflict between Gao Rou and Lu Yu. He wanted the two to fight as soon as possible.
Cao Mao immediately frowned and said to Gao Dan: "Don't explain! I already know what your father wants to do?! He wants to trap me and the Queen Mother in this palace, so that the ministers can't communicate with us. See you again?!"
"Does Situ Gao want to be the next general?!"
At this moment, Gao Dan's face turned red from suppressing it. He was about to have an attack, but suddenly remembered something and quickly lowered his head.
"Your Majesty, that's not the case! This is all because of Lu Wangxiang! He framed it! He framed it! Your Majesty!"
"Huh, if something like this happens again, I won't sit idly by and watch!"
Cao Mao said loudly, bowed his head and left the place in a hurry.
After seeing him off, Cao Mao's expression calmed down.
These people want to fight among themselves, so I can't stop them, right?
Besides, how can I not do what the teacher assigned me?
Don't worry, teacher, I'll light the fire for you, and I'll add some oil to make the fire burn more intensely than you imagine!
Cao Mao then led everyone and walked slowly towards the direction of Zhaoyang Palace.
The Queen Mother has become a bit close to Gao Rou recently. In fact, this is not a bad thing for Cao Mao. He does not need to be too involved in the affairs of the court.
But, the Queen Mother is a little too arrogant now, but she has forgotten the unstable factors around her.
Guo Li, Guo Zhi and others have not shown up yet.
I have to remind the Queen Mother from time to time to prevent her from being crushed too early.
