Deng Ai was also a little hesitant at this moment. Deng Ai and Chen Tai were both close associates of the Sima family.
At this moment, he was not sure about Chen Tai's position.
But according to Deng Ai's judgment, when he went on the expedition this time, his majesty told him that after arriving at Yongliang, he should listen to Chen Tai's advice more and not conflict with him as the general of Zhenxi. These words were obviously Let Deng Ai obey Chen Tai's orders.
Since he has allowed himself to obey Chen Tai, His Majesty still has great trust in Chen Tai, and his current position should be similar to his own.
Deng Ai no longer concealed anything and said truthfully: "When I was in Yanzhou, I realized something was wrong and wrote a letter to General Wei, telling him not to leave Luoyang. I wanted to put down the rebellion for him myself."
"But General Wei wrote back and told me not to be anxious. He said he would never forget to reward me."
Deng Ai looked helpless.
Under the dual monarchy, Deng Ai was both the emperor's minister and Sima Yi's protégé. After Sima Yi's death, he continued to assist Sima Shi, but now even Sima Shi was gone, and Sima Zhao didn't believe him. The words even contained a hint of sarcasm.
So what else can Deng Ai do? Revolt against the emperor because of the dead Sima Yi?
Look at whether Sima Zhao dares to admit his actions. When the time comes, he may not be the first to stand up and accuse him of treason.
Deng Ai added: "Immediately, His Majesty and General Wei ordered me to return to the temple."
"When I returned to the temple, I found that Your Majesty had given General Wei a mansion. It was there that I met Your Majesty."
"General Wei asked me to assist His Majesty well."
"His Majesty named me the General of Zhenxi on that day and asked me to lead the Chinese army to rescue. He also said that in the future, he would let me replace the old General of Chariots and Cavalry to guard Yongliang."
"Without His Majesty's trust, I would not dare to use such risky tactics."
Deng Ai was very serious and told Chen Tai truthfully what happened after he arrived at the temple from Yanzhou.
At this moment, he saw Chen Tai's tense expression suddenly relaxed.
Chen Tai exhaled.
When he received the letter from his uncle Xun Yi, Chen Tairen was confused. He couldn't react to the drastic changes in the temple. Later, he learned that General Wei had returned to Luoyang, and he was even more panicked. Now he finally understood what happened in the DPRK. everything.
The emperor won, and the ministers and the Sima family were defeated.
Seeing Deng Ai in front of him, Chen Tai didn't even worry that he would be implicated. Even Deng Ai was pardoned and given such a high priority that he directly led the troops to the expedition. His Majesty even ordered him to follow his orders. It seems that Your Majesty I don't feel like I'm his enemy.
I finally had the chance to wash away my bad reputation!
Looking at Chen Tai who was quite moved in front of him, Deng Ai couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty is an immortal holy king. At such an age, he reorganized the temple, was courteous to the virtuous, and was benevolent and righteous. Could it be that this hundred years of disputes are going to end like this?" Is it over at the hands of the Holy King?"
Chen Tai also said with emotion: "His Majesty went from Yuancheng to Luoyang in October last year, and it has been less than a year until now. It is really unbelievable that he can reach this point."
"With such a holy king in the Wei Dynasty, what else can't be done?"
The two people who were bragging about each other's achievements just now began to brag about the emperor again.
Next, they began to discuss future arrangements.
"Since General Zhenxi is here, I should take the generals to Luoyang and report the situation in Yongliang."
"I will help you take over Yongliang's army, and then return to the temple with the prisoners and meritorious soldiers to pay homage to His Majesty."
Deng Ai nodded. His expedition this time was not a temporary attack, but to replace Guo Huai.
From now on, he will guard here and be responsible for the Hu people in Shu and Yongzhou.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, Chen Tai did not go back to pay a visit. This was obviously not possible. While he was here, he had to go back to resume his duties together. By the way, he also swore allegiance to the emperor. After all, he was a feudal official.
The division of labor between the two was clear, and Chen Tai also took the opportunity to talk about the situation of people in various places in Yongliang.
"Wang Hun, the governor of Liangzhou, is straightforward, old-fashioned and sincere."
Since Wang Mang, nobles have generally been distinguished by a single name. This continued after the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Therefore, many people with the same name appeared during this period, namely this Wang Hun. There were two Wang Hun in the Wei Dynasty, and the governor of Liangzhou Wang Hun is the father of the famous scholar Wang Rong, and the other Wang Hun is the son of Wang Chang, the general who conquered the south.
There are not many such situations.
Chen Tai talked about these important officials. In fact, most of these people had to follow him back to the temple.
But Chen Tai felt that these people would still come back to continue the appointment, but he might not.
Chen Tai left the temple and went to the frontier fortress because he lost his reputation when he killed Cao Shuang. Now that he was looking forward to a turn of events, he naturally still hoped to stay in the temple to work.
Let’s just say that the Chancellor’s Desk must have its own place, right?
Although Chen Tai is good at fighting, he is actually better at politics.
Chen Tai talked about the most important person at this moment.
"General Sima Wang of Anxi."
Chen Tai took out a letter from his sleeve and said seriously: "This is what Tai Fu Gong asked me to give to Sima Wang, but I didn't give it to him, mainly because Jiang Wei came to invade. I was afraid that this matter would affect War situation.”
When Xunyi sent people to Yongliang, he brought Sima Fu's letter. The letter was given to Sima Wang, asking Sima Wang to focus on important matters and not to commit betrayal.

But before Chen Tai had time to see Sima Wang, war broke out.
Chen Tai did not show the letter to Sima Wang for the sake of the success of the Yongliang war. If Sima Wang learned that something happened to Sima Fu and followed Xiahou Ba's example, something big would happen.
And now that Jiang Wei was defeated, he had to make a decision in this matter.
Deng Ai was silent for a moment, and then said: "I think there is no need to inform him in advance. He can be asked to return to Luoyang with you. When Luoyang is reached, His Majesty will inform him personally."
Chen Tai nodded, "That's all it can do."
Immediately, the two took action. Deng Ai returned with Chen Tai, inspected the army, and then began to sort out the merits of everyone in the battle. At the same time, he also sent people to Luoyang to inform the emperor in Luoyang of the war.
Inside the Tai Chi Hall.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Lu is not the kind of villain who accepts salary. He must have been framed. Please forgive me!!"
At this moment, Ji Kang and Lu An knelt down in front of Cao Mao, begging for mercy.
After Cao Mao took office, he thought about officially using the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest. Although these seven people had been reciting poems, composing poems, and drinking wine, they still had some talents, and each of them could be put in different places.
Moreover, they themselves have great appeal among scholars, and accepting them can also strengthen Cao Mao's influence on young scholars.
But before Cao Mao's plan even started, it was suddenly interrupted because of Lu Xun, a thief.
Lu Xun instigated those young scholars in an attempt to trip up Tingwei Chen Qian.
His thoughts cannot be said to be evil.
Of course, these methods of his are like childish play to Cao Mao. After fighting against Sima Shi, Jia Chong, Zhong Hui, Gao Rou, Wang Xiang, Lu Yu, Sima Fu and others, he turned back to Lu A fight between Xun and Feng would be nothing short of bullying.
Their strategy even seemed ridiculous to Cao Mao.
They wanted to prove Chen Qian's guilt through the letters he had with Gao Rou, which in itself is extremely ridiculous.
Is Chen Qian the only one who has contact with Gao Rou? If we were to search seriously, who among the current officials would not have any dealings with Gao Rou?
You don't even need me to take action on your idea, the ministers can handle you.
Although it was ridiculous, Cao Mao didn't want to let them go.
Chen Qian first pretended to be afraid and hid in Tingwei. After a few days, he suddenly led people to attack Lu Xun's mansion, and then found Lu Xun who was playing naked games with several beauties.
Lu Xun was in a state of embarrassment and begged to put on his clothes, but Chen Qian did not agree and tied him up directly and took him back to Tingwei along with the evidence of the crime.
As soon as this incident came out, the scholars in Luoyang were in an uproar.
Chen Qian interrogated those beauties and immediately knew the whole process of Lu Xun's bribery. Chen Qian was not used to it and just showed it to the public.
If Ji Kang and Lu An were not still running for Lu Xun, I am afraid that Lu Xun would have been ruined long ago.
Just because of these two idiots in front of him, some people still believe that Lu Xun is innocent and was framed by Chen Qian.
Cao Mao looked at the two idiots in front of him.
One is Ji Kang and the other is Lu An.
When the power was not yet in their hands, these two people helped, and they were indeed loyal, but they were also really blind.
Cao Mao asked calmly: "Are you going to impeach Ting Wei for framing Lu Xun?"
"exactly!"
"Then why don't you go to the Yushifu? Could it be that you can't trust Mr. Zheng? Or can't you trust Mr. Guanqiu?"
Ji Kang was stunned for a moment, and then explained: "Your Majesty, when Jun Lu impeached Chen Qian, he also offended the ministers, so the ministers refused to save him."
Cao Mao shook his head and sighed: "How can there be someone as ignorant as Ji Jun in the world?"
"Mao Xian."
Zhang Hua saluted Cao Mao, and Cao Mao said: "Take these two people to Tingwei and let them see Lu Xun and the witnesses. Let Chen Qian stop blocking them and let them see the real situation."
Zhang Hua saluted again and then walked out with Ji Kang and Lu An.
Cao Mao has deliberately let the two of them publicize outside these days, just to wait for the day when the issue of public opinion can be solved through them.
Cao Mao began to think deeply again. Ji Kang's captain should be removed. If you don't know people well, something big will happen sooner or later.
He is not suitable to do such a thing.
The Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove are still suitable for cultural and publicity work.
Now, Deng Ai has probably met Chen Tai. Chen Tai found out that Deng Ai was being used in such an important manner. He probably no longer worried and would return to the temple. In this way, Deng Ai would be in charge of Yongliang's army, and he would still be in charge. A reliable governor who would not hinder Deng Ai was needed to stay in Yongzhou to replace Chen Tai.
In addition, if he can win a big victory this time, his prestige will be more sufficient. The armies of Hebei, Yongliang, Yuzhou, and Yangzhou have basically secured their position and cannot be shaken anymore.
Wang Chang, Hu Zun, Shi Bao.
How will these three people choose?
