"Mr. Xun!! How could you do this to me?!"
"Aren't you afraid that no one will be willing to stand up for temple affairs in the future?"
Guo Zhang's face turned red. He stood in front of Xun Yi, almost jumping with anger.
With this joint petition, all the ministers got what they wanted. From now on, the emperor would not be able to appoint and remove the emperor at will, and would have to draw up a set of rules and regulations that everyone accepted.
The emperor was very happy, Zhong Hui was very happy, and the ministers were also very happy.
Only Guo Zhang was unhappy.
Because he was about to be punished, Yushitai impeached him for three crimes. No matter what the charges were in the end, the official title could not be saved anyway.
Guo Zhang was very angry about this.
I will serve as your vanguard, and you should also protect me.
Your plan has been successful, so no one will come to protect me anymore?
Xun Yi's face did not have the usual smile at this moment, and he was also in a bad mood. As soon as the court meeting was successfully completed, he was dragged by Zhuge Dan to deal with matters in Taicang.
Zhuge Dan showed no mercy at all and reprimanded him repeatedly in front of many officials.
He even ordered himself to catch the criminal within ten days and solve the matter.
Looking at Zhuge Dan's expression, Xun Yi had no doubt that if he couldn't finish it, this man would really draw a sword against him.
What kind of lunatic is this? He is not afraid of offending his ministers for the sake of his vain reputation?
Xun Yi was in a very bad mood. As soon as he returned to the house, Guo Zhang forced his way in and asked for his protection. Xun Yi just said that he would talk about it tomorrow, and he started to fly into a rage.
Xun Yi's eyes suddenly turned cold when he looked at Guo Zhang.
You are from a rich family, am I not?
In terms of parents, your father is not worthy of carrying my father's shoes. How dare you make such a fuss here?
He said coldly: "Mr. Guo, don't say it so harshly. It was you who took the initiative to speak first. I also advised you that this matter is extremely risky. It was you who said you don't need to worry. There are a lot of people." Please help me."
"Why, in your place, I am the only minister?!"
Guo Zhang knew he had made a mistake and his face turned red, but he still lowered his head respectfully, "Mr. Xun, I don't mean to blame you."
"All ministers advance and retreat together. This is the reason why traitors in the court cannot succeed."
"Now that I am standing up for the interests of the ministers, Your Majesty has been deceived, so he wants to punish me. If no one comes to save me, how can we talk about advancing and retreating together?"
"Will anyone dare to come forward first in the future?!"
"It's not that I'm greedy for life, I'm worried that no one will dare to speak out in the future!!"
Guo Zhang was trembling as he spoke. He was extremely scared. Who knew what he would encounter after leaving here? Maybe there were soldiers standing outside the door trying to catch him.
Xun Yi listened to his words, but he dismissed them in his heart.
Xun Yi was not a person prone to danger. His initial idea was to use Sima Shi's incident to strengthen the emperor, and then resolve the matter tactfully. It was Guo Zhang and others who shouted to fight to the death. Why are you scared again now?
This time, the emperor has named you to deal with you. What do you want me to do? ?
Gather ministers again to oppose the emperor? ?
You really don’t take the Emperor of Wei seriously, do you?
After opposing the emperor again and again, the Chinese army may not be able to attack the chancellery again.
You yourself screamed the loudest, why do you want me to come forward now?
Xun Yi was unwilling to fight head-on with the emperor for Guo Zhang anyway, so he had to leave room for the emperor to relax. The result of a head-on confrontation was that both sides would suffer.
The emperor did not dare to slaughter them all, and they did not dare to resign en masse.
The main theme is that they are afraid of each other.
But once you completely turn your back, it's hard to say.
Xunyi pondered for a moment and then said: "I will take care of this matter. Don't worry, just wait at home."
Guo Zhang was overjoyed and thanked Xunyi again and again before leaving tremblingly.
After he left, Xunyi called the butler over and said seriously: "Don't let this person in in the future."
Xunyi is not worried about the future at all. As long as the benefits are large, there will be no shortage of forwards who dare to come forward. This is true at any time.
Cao Mao had just returned to Tai Chi Hall when he saw Uncle Jiao who was particularly excited.
When Jiao Bo saw Cao Mao appearing, he hurried forward to pay his respects, his whole body trembling slightly.
"His Majesty!!"
"Victory! Big victory!"
"Deng Gong led the troops to defeat Jiang Wei and captured Shu general Zhang Yi alive!"
Uncle Jiao's voice was trembling, and Cao Mao, who had just returned from Ma Jun, was no longer calm.
"Who was captured alive??"
"Zhang Yi! Zhang Yi, the general of the Shu thieves who conquered the west!"
Cao Mao took a deep breath and was speechless for a long time.
Zhang Hua on the side quickly saluted and said: "Sincere congratulations to Your Majesty!!"
Please visit the latest address
Everyone around them saluted, "Congratulations to Your Majesty!!"
Cao Mao was stunned for a long time, then raised his head and laughed.
His laughter was particularly hearty, a bit like his great-grandfather's.
"Defeat Jiang Wei and capture Zhang Yi alive! Okay, okay. If we can capture Zhang Yi alive, I think this Shu bandit will suffer extremely heavy casualties!!"
"Good general! I should reward you! I should congratulate you!!"
Cao Mao smiled happily.
To be honest, although Jiang Wei is a serious problem for the Wei State, he is not the kind of opponent who can push the Wei State into a desperate situation.
When Zhuge Liang went on an expedition, the emperor was shocked when he heard the news. He deployed his troops and generals and stared at Yongliang all day long. This was a serious concern.
When Jiang Wei went on an expedition, the generals of Yongliang were usually shocked and began to mobilize their troops and stare at him. Unless they were defeated, the emperor would not pay too much attention to this matter. Maybe it was just a habit of fighting. .
However, even if you are not afraid, you still can't stop this guy from causing trouble every day!
Liangzhou has been in trouble for more than a hundred years. From the beginning of the Qiang Rebellion to now, this area has never been peaceful, with years of wars and disasters.
Cao Wei was quite effective in governing Yongliang, but he could not withstand the disasters again and again.
Cao Mao also knew that in a few decades, an extremely serious food crisis would break out here, followed by a rebellion involving hundreds of thousands of people.
In Cao Mao's great cause of governing the world, Yongliang is still a very critical link. He connects the Western Regions, Bashu, and Bingzhou.
Commerce, Agriculture, Mining.
Jiang Wei's defeat meant that the Shu Kingdom would undergo a period of consolidation, and Jiang Wei could not invade Yongliang despite the pressure from his ministers at home.
This period of time will be a very valuable opportunity for Cao Mao.
Cao Mao can use this opportunity to rectify the administration and deal with the pests in the army!
A drastic attack on the army will affect the combat effectiveness in the early stage no matter what. If it is during peacetime, then there is no need to worry.
Do it, do it boldly, arrest and execute those who are greedy for military rations, those who do not know how to fight, and those who steal credit and fame. At least we must achieve a certain degree of transparency in military expenditures and get rid of the worms in the army.
After the short-term pain, the combat effectiveness of the Wei army will be greatly improved.
Once the reform in the army is completed, all aspects of salary are improved, and training is actively carried out, then Cao Mao will no longer worry about Jiang Wei coming again. Under the huge disparity in strength, as a comparable opponent to Jiang Wei, Deng Ai can defeat Jiang Wei. Can't find North!
After completely controlling the Shangshutai and completing many early innovations, we can try to unify.
On the issue of whether to attack Shu or Wu first, Cao Mao and many of his confidants supported attacking Shu first.
Because if the country of Wu is attacked, the country of Shu will definitely send troops to harass them, but if the country of Shu is attacked, the country of Wu may not
The local aristocratic families of Wu State are really too strong, maybe even stronger than the big families of Cao Wei. If others come to attack them, they will go all out and fight actively. However, if they are asked to send troops to conquer and do something thankless, then they will Be passive and avoid fighting.
Therefore, it is often seen that when Wu is on defense, he often wins with less, but when he attacks, he often loses with more.
What does the life and death of the Shu Kingdom have to do with the drunken and dreamy Wu clan?
But now the general of Wu State, Sun Jun, is a very smart man, so we still have to wait a little longer. This man inherited the fine tradition of the generals of the Sun family and died young. When he dies, we can start preparing to deal with it. Shu Kingdom.
Sun Wei, who succeeded him, was a fool. Compared with his cousin, his skills were too great. He was simply a replica of Sima Master and Sima Zhao, no, Sima Master and Sima Yan!
Cao Mao thought of many things at this moment, and he looked at Zhang Hua beside him.
"Immediately tell the world that since I took charge, this is the first time that the Wei Dynasty has won such a great victory. This is the blessing of our ancestors!!"
Zhang Hua is very clear about the importance of publicity work.
This victory came just in time. The ministers had already jumped out and openly defied the emperor. Such a great victory could calm down the triumphant ministers.
Victory is the most powerful way to enhance the king's prestige. A great victory can make the emperor more popular among the soldiers. New people who have made meritorious services will become the emperor's supporters. At the same time, people in the world will become more and more awed by it, for various reasons.
"Your Majesty, let's go together!"
"Go, everyone go!"
Cao Mao waved his hand, and the ministers left the Tai Chi Hall in a swarm.
Cao Mao watched the ministers leave with a smile, strode into the west hall, bent down, wiped the steps casually, and sat directly on it. His posture was very chic, but it was not in line with the etiquette of the king at all.
Mr. Xu stood aside and hesitated to speak.
Cao Mao waved to him.
Mr. Xu quickly took a step forward, bent down, and waited for orders.
"Mr. Xu, you take people to raid Guo Zhang's house now and prepare all his things for me. This hero is coming back, how can we not reward him?"
"If anyone dares to stop him, he will be killed directly."
Husband Xu was shocked and asked him to handle this matter? ?
The aristocratic families are very afraid of eunuchs. How can they allow themselves to do such a thing as ransacking their homes?
Is this because he is afraid that the officials will not resist him? ?
Cao Mao glanced at him again and slowly narrowed his eyes.
"Slave obeys orders!!!"
"Well, bring more people. No need to hide them. Send Guo Zhang directly to Tingwei. As for his family property, if anyone is greedy for ink, I will punish his three clans."
"only!!!"
