The ministers finally decided to resolve the matter through a court meeting.

This meeting is particularly urgent.

Situ Gong Gao Rou personally presided over the ceremony, and almost all the officials were present.

The faces of the ministers varied. Some were crying all the way, some had angry faces and were searching everywhere, and some were silent with their eyes shining brightly.

When the ministers gathered here, what happened outside had basically spread among the ministers.

Sima Fu sat in the upper position with a calm expression, but his heart could not calm down for a long time.

He never thought that his own son could do something like this before he died.

He was really sweating profusely at this moment. Sima Fu knew very well that this move was a quick victory. If the ministers inside had contacted the generals outside, many of them would have been able to see that there was something wrong with it.

If we think about Master Sima again, then the Sima family will have a big problem.

You dare to destroy other people's whole family, will others tolerate you?

Do you really think that this wealthy family is made of clay? ?

Sima Fu felt uneasy, but his face was very calm. He sat in his seat and looked at the ministers around him. He did not see any fierce or angry look towards him in the eyes of any of the ministers. This made Sima Fu temporarily Breathed a sigh of relief.

There is still time to resolve all this.

The ministers no longer eat the melons of other countries. Now it is time for Shu and Wu to eat their own melons. Such large-scale turmoil has not occurred for many years.

Hebei has always been unstable, and it was not peaceful during Cao Cao's time, but there has never been such turmoil.

Gao Rou did not waste any time and immediately started the court meeting.

Nowadays, rebellions are raging all over the country, and even foreign troops have problems. How to put them down?

At this time, the ministers remembered the goodness of Sima Shi. If the general was still there, how could he be leaderless? No, if he were here, there would be no rebellion at all.

But a dead general is a good general. Even though he thinks of how good the general is, no one wants him to live again.

And now how difficult is it to select a qualified counterinsurgent?

Can a random person make those arrogant local generals obedient? They didn't even listen to what Master Sima said!

Guanqiu Jian was recruited as a Taiwei and was unwilling to come.

The others are also close to the Sima family.

The ministers of the DPRK and China also have very limited contact with them.

Just as the ministers were discussing, Xun Yi expressed his thoughts again.

Sima Zhao!

He believed that Sima Zhao was suitable for this counter-insurgency task, firstly because he was the younger brother of Sima Shi and could make foreign generals obey, and secondly because he had been in charge of the Chinese army for a long time and could lead the Chinese army in the shortest time. Go out and fight against the rebels.

After hearing Xun Yi's proposal, the officials were very unhappy.

After finally driving Sima Shi down, are we going to help him up again?

Many ministers are opposed to this proposal.

The ministers argued about this, and they did not want the rebellion to continue to expand, and the atmosphere became increasingly violent.

At this time, I suddenly heard an official shouting: "The ministers salute and welcome the Queen Mother!!"

"What?"

The ministers were confused and looked at the door of the hall. They saw soldiers running quickly and standing on both sides. Then two people walked into the hall together.

One of them is the Queen Mother, and the other is the Emperor.

Cao Mao supported the Queen Mother, and they walked into the hall one after the other.

The expressions of the officials changed drastically.

The Queen Mother cannot interfere in the government affairs of the temple. Normally, the ministers would not dare to go in together when seeing her. How could she appear here?

And the emperor!

The emperor is young and ignorant, how can he come?

The ministers reacted quickly, and before the other party came in, they had made a decision. Several ministers walked out directly, blocked the road, and bowed and knelt towards them.

The other ministers followed, seemingly bowing to the Queen Mother and the Emperor, but in fact they stood directly in front of them.

The Queen Mother saw all the ministers saluting towards her, with smiles on their faces. Only Cao Mao looked at these people deeply.

"Queen Mother, the DPRK and the Central Government are discussing important matters, and we were unable to go to meet you in time!"

Gao Rou stood up first, glanced at Cao Mao, and said calmly: "There are rebellions in various places in the Wei Dynasty, and it is not safe. I would like to ask the Queen Mother to return to Zhaoyang Palace temporarily. I will deal with the things here and then go."

"enough."

Cao Mao interrupted him.

Cao Mao said seriously: "The world is about to perish. Are you still thinking about the legacy of your ancestors?!"

"If the Wei Dynasty is destroyed, will we still have the dignity to meet Emperor Wen?"

Gao Rou pursed her lips and said nothing. Tingwei Zhong Yu said: "Your Majesty, this is not an instruction from our ancestors. It's just that the ministers are discussing. The matter is urgent. Please don't waste the time."

How else can we say that these thieves are inferior to Master Sima? ?

Even if the world is about to perish, they will not give up their own interests!

They wanted to isolate the emperor and the queen mother, so that this matter before the court would not be the first.

The Queen Mother cannot come to court, and the Emperor is young and has to go back and study hard.

Cao Mao looked at his teacher at this moment, while Wang Xiang frowned and shook his head at him.

Cao Mao then looked at the other ministers, "Who can decide these things? If no one decides, wouldn't the rebellions in various places become more serious?"

Cao Mao suddenly shook his head and looked at the Queen Mother beside him.

"Mother, forget it, let's go back and let them continue to quarrel here. After the rebels kill almost all the people in the place, they can negotiate the outcome!"

The expressions of several ministers became solemn.

Xun Yi took the opportunity and said: "Queen Mother, we want General Zhengxi to take the position of general and go to quell the war."

Queen Mother Guo's eyes were full of astonishment. I worked hard and tried hard to pull Sima Shi down, but you want to push Sima Zhao up? ?

She looked at Cao Mao aside, how could it really be what my son said?

She looked at Gao Rou disbelievingly, "Situ Gong, can't you come forward to quell the rebellion? I know you are old, but you don't have to go in person. You only need to order various places to sit in Luoyang and coordinate the army."

"Old ministers don't know how to fight."

Gao Rou replied.

Queen Mother Guo was silent again, this was still the same as what Cao Mao said.

Empress Dowager Guo finally calmed down. She looked at Xun Yi and said: "Summon General Sima Zhao of the West, worship him as General Wei, and ask him to put down the rebellions in various places as soon as possible. Send my order to the generals everywhere, the general." If he dies, the temple will not be able to deploy a large army within a period of time so that they can put down the rebellion as soon as possible!"

When Xun Yi heard what Empress Dowager Guo said, he looked at the other ministers first and did not answer.

This made Queen Mother Guo look a little ugly. She looked at Wang Xiang, but Wang Xiang just squinted his eyes and pretended not to see.

Queen Mother Guo looked at the only calm person among the ministers.

"Mr. Zheng, I will ask you to record the affairs of the minister. From now on, you will also be responsible for the affairs of the minister's desk. You must solve the logistics issues for the army, so there must be no delay."

Zheng Chong, who was sitting among the ministers, was a little confused. He stood up and was about to refuse, but Queen Mother Guo turned around and left.

Only a group of silent ministers were left.

The Queen Mother suddenly arrived and dropped two more edicts, which made the officials a little confused.

Let Sima Zhao serve as General Wei? ?

Why not just take over as general? General Wei can also control the armies in various places, but of course his authority is not as good as that of the general.

Jiang Wei of Shu is General Wei.

But the second edict was to ask Zheng Chong to record the affairs of the minister.

The so-called recording of Shangshu affairs means concurrently serving as Shangshu order. With this, you are the controller of the Wei Dynasty.

Zheng Chong has a high reputation and seniority, but he has always paid little attention to government affairs in the court.

At this moment, Sima Fu couldn't sit still.

Before he could speak, why did the matter of recording the minister become Zheng Chong's?

He looked across and found that Zhong Yu from Sima Zhao's faction was also a little unable to sit still.

They were also very puzzled, why did the general become General Wei?

"I think it's only natural to act as a general."

Zhong Yu said: "If it is just a guard general, I'm afraid the local generals may not comply."

Hearing him speak, the officials did not respond.

They also do not want to see the Sima family rise again, whether it is Sima Fu or Sima Zhao.

The Queen Mother's current edict seems to be more reasonable than the decision just now.

Gao Rou raised her head and said, "Just follow the Queen Mother's order!"

"These thieves! Traitors!"

"As expected, they are all thieves!"

Queen Mother Guo was cursing all the way, and her expression was very aggrieved. She didn't often curse, and she couldn't come up with anything new at this moment. She just kept saying those few words repeatedly.

Cao Mao kept comforting him: "Mother, I told you in the past that these people are using you! They just want to use you to deal with Master Sima!"

"In the whole world, I am the only one who can truly be united with you."

"You still don't believe me. Look at those ministers. How do they respect us? They are clearly blocking the road and preventing us from going to the top!"

"How dare they look down upon our mother and son like this!"

"How can we forgive them??"

When Cao Mao learned that the court meeting was about to begin, he found the Queen Mother and told the Queen Mother the thoughts of the ministers in advance, and then told her his own thoughts.

The Queen Mother naturally didn't believe it at first, but it wasn't until she went there with Cao Mao in person that she finally believed it and read out the edict according to Cao Mao's ideas.

The attitude of those people is too obvious and there is no cover up.

Perhaps, after Master Sima's death, they felt that there was no need to continue pretending. The Queen Mother was much easier to deal with than Master Sima.

There is no need to be so cautious.

The current situation is very complicated, and there is no need to involve the Queen Mother and the Emperor.

Cao Mao seized this opportunity very well and allowed the Queen Mother to see the minister who showed his true face. Queen Mother Guo was very disappointed at the moment. Looking at Cao Mao on the side, she asked: "Then what should we do next?"

Cao Mao looked determined.

"Leave it to your son to take care of the rest of your mother's affairs. I insist on having them all kneel outside your palace gate to apologize to you!!"
