Chapter 253 People's hearts are in turmoil, and each has a plan!
The Xiangfu camp - the big tent of the Chinese army has been ridden by thousands of tigers and leopards, and the inner and outer three layers are blocked, and all idle people are forbidden to approach, and only a few clan generals and confidants can enter it!
Even if those who are qualified to enter, they can only discuss matters in the front tent, and they are not allowed to move around at will, Cao Cao is lying in the back tent, several medical officers are being treated, Xu Chu guards the door with a sword, and there are those who dare to trespass - behead!
The rest of the civil and military officials could only wait outside the tent for a hundred steps, or they looked at the back tent with their feet crossed, stared at the back tent, or they were in groups of three or five, whispering, and everyone had only one question in mind...... Is the prime minister dead or alive?
After Cao Cao was hit by the poisonous nail, he was wrapped in brocade robes by his own soldiers and carried all the way back to the back tent, during which he did not see a minister or say a word, which couldn't help but make everyone panic!
According to reason, if Cao Cao's injury is not serious, he will definitely come out to meet the ministers, even if the injury is more serious, he should also explain a few words to appease the hearts of the people in the camp, now there is no news at all, and there is a faint cry from the back account, can it be ......
"Look at the people coming out of the tent, and a lot of Bai Juan has been transported, and they are actually building a spiritual shed!"
"Build a spiritual tent -- can it be said that the Prime Minister has ascended to heaven!"
……………………
Looking at the fast-building mourning shed, the civil and military officials were all shocked, some fell to the ground and wailed loudly, some had bloodless faces and trembled with fear, and some people covered their faces with their sleeves and pretended to cry, but their hearts bloomed with joy...... The unbeatable traitor has finally returned to the underworld!
Since Cao Cao came to power, he has made a lot of achievements, but he has also offended a large number of officials, especially the scholars and gate lords, who have lost their monopoly on the official career, so they hate the traitors to the bone!
Now that the traitor has been assassinated, the regime will also change, and the emperor's relatives, scholars, and local princes will unite to take the opportunity to regain the lost rights, and there will be a good life again!
Thinking of this, many officials were overjoyed and ready to pass on the news, so that the accomplices in the city could take the opportunity to do something, and Nazhi was just half happy, but they were surprised to find that the spirit shed was not a sacrifice to a person, but a dog!
"Faithfully protect the Lord, defend yourself against poisonous arrows, immortalize your soul, enjoy my soup - the sacrifice begins!"
Wangtian roared wrapped in a banner and was carried out by four soldiers, and his hair was carefully combed, just like the majesty of his life, and then he entered the coffin, enjoying the incense sacrifice, like a warrior who died in battle!
The funeral goods are even more abundant, chickens, ducks, fish, meat, and various toys...... They all liked Wangtian Roar before his death, and there was also a prime minister's robe, which was also put into the coffin, so that it could be accompanied by the breath of the master and sleep in another world!
On the pillars on both sides of the mourning shed, a pair of elegiac couplets were also hung:
Watch the door, protect the Lord with your body, dare to look at the sky and roar the sun and the moon!
The heroic soul is immortal, the heroic spirit lasts forever, and the afterlife will meet and accompany you!
This couplet is not only a sacrificial dog, but also a warning to the ministers, to be a man should have a loyal heart, otherwise even a dog is not as good as it, looking at the handwriting of the dragon flying and phoenix dance, it should be the fourth son - Cao Zhi's pen and ink, and he is really a person with a heart!
The officials who had a false alarm came to the mourning shed one after another, lit a few pillars of incense and worshipped, and said that the dog should be beaten to see the owner, and the dog sacrifice is the same, and people are more concerned about the death of the loyal dog, how is the owner?
"Da! Da! --Look at the Golden Wolf Head Daxu Banner, it's Da Sima who is coming! ”
"Da Sima is in charge of the big camp, we have the backbone, and we can bear it when the sky collapses - I am willing to listen to Da Sima's orders!"
……………………
A group of cavalry rushed into the camp like a whirlwind, led by Xiao Yi-Eagle Eagle, swallowing mountains and rivers, followed by three hundred personal soldiers, all of whom were also brave men!
Seeing the figure of Da Sima appear, no one dared to stop the 'tiger and leopard riders', separating a road like waves, and the civil and military officials rushed up, constantly bowing and greeting loudly, and some people saluted and worshipped!
Everyone's hearts are cleared, once the traitorous soul returns to the underworld, the candidate to take over the military and political power is Xiao Yat nine times out of ten, and now he is not afraid of Ma Biao's loyalty, how long will he wait?
"Prime Minister, the last general is not good to guard, it is really a crime that deserves death, as long as the Prime Minister turns evil into good fortune, the last general is willing to live for ten years...... Whining! ”
Dozens of steps away from the big tent, Xiao Yi jumped off his mount and staggered forward, and at the same time, under the cover of his sleeves, he pressed Shaoshang's acupoint with his little fingertips!
Shaoshang acupoint is located at the end of the thumb, belongs to an important acupoint of the lung meridian, if you massage it with skillful force, the human body will cry more than tears, send out the sound of ghosts crying wolves, so it is also called 'ghost crying acupoints!' ’
Xiao Yi fought with Wang Yue for most of the day in the wilderness, sweaty clothes, gray face, and a few sword wounds, coupled with the tears that kept pouring out, instantly reflected a tall image of courage and loyalty, and also won countless sympathy!
The surrounding civil and military officials all thought secretly in their hearts: "People say that the great Sima has different intentions and wants to replace the Cao family, but looking at his loyalty and righteousness today, people's words are false and untrustworthy!" ”
A person who is loyal to his superiors can't be wrong with his subordinates, if Da Sima is in charge of national politics, everyone wants to have a good life, right?
……………………………………………………………………………………
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Mrs. Bian sat on the main seat, holding a rosewood box in her arms, her plain face without fat powder was full of sorrow, her eyes were red and swollen, I think she had just cried!
Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, Cao Zhi, and Cao Xionghuan stood behind him, and whispered to comfort his mother not to worry, his father was blessed with a great life, and he would be safe and sound, showing filial piety more than the other!
But the eyes of the four brothers were all staring at the box in their mother's arms, flashing with anxiety and greed, which contained Cao Cao's prime minister's seal and arrows, which could command the world!
Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and other clan generals, as well as the concubines of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the sons of the concubines, all stood on the left side of the big tent, and many beauties were crying, because Cao Cao had three long and two short, they were afraid that they would be martyred, among them was the most favored Mrs. Huan, who hugged Cao Chong, Cao Ju, and Cao Yu's three sons!
Cheng Yu, Liu Ye, Hua Xin, Jiang Ji and other confidants and strategists stood on the right side of the big tent, with a sad look on their faces, they had followed Cao Cao for many years, they were politically loyal and reliable, and they could help each other in the same boat!
Xu Chu was wearing heavy armor and holding a sword, leading dozens of strong warriors to block the door of the back tent, no one could see the situation inside, and could only faintly hear some crying!
"I'll see Lord Da Sima...... With Xiao Lang sitting in the camp, the old body can rest assured, so quickly sit down next to him! ”
Seeing Xiao Yi walk into the big tent, the clan generals, civil and military ministers bowed down one after another, and even Mrs. Bian stood up and saluted slightly, and the gloom on everyone's faces instantly dispersed!
It turned out that after Cao Cao's assassination, everyone was most worried that someone took the opportunity to make trouble, mainly because there were two major worries: one was the die-hard loyalty of the Han family, and the other was the Hou Mansion without worries, and the threat of the latter was far higher than the former!
Xiao Yi is in a high position and has outstanding military achievements, as long as he ascends to the top and shouts, more than half of the generals of the Cao army will obey his dispatch, enter to replace the Cao family, sweep the world, and retreat can also divide one side and establish himself as the king!
Such a powerful force naturally makes people uneasy, and several clan generals privately discussed, wanting to strike first, send troops to surround the camp of the Marquis of Wuworry, and use their families as hostages, but they are worried about Xiao Yi's revenge, so they have not dared to make a move!
Well, now Xiao Yi did not rebel or lead the troops out, but came to the big tent of the Chinese army and showed enough loyalty, as long as the Cao Ying group did not split, he could concentrate his forces and fight the political storm behind!
However, the snake can't fly without a head, the bird can't fly without a head, and in the case of Cao Cao's life and death, someone must stand up to take over the power and command the overall situation, and among the people in the tent, who is the right person?
"The Prime Minister was assassinated, his life was in danger, the old and the female generations, the sons are young and ignorant, and they have no power to take charge of the military and politics.
Xiao Langwen can govern the country, martial arts can Anbang, will be able to lead everyone, through this catastrophe, here is the prime minister's military talismans, seals, please use it on your behalf! ”
Mrs. Bian cried for a while, and opened the sandalwood box in her hand, which was divided into two layers, on which were twelve Jinlin tokens, exquisite workmanship, shining, and holding it could mobilize the world's soldiers and horses!
The lower layer is a five-inch size, cast in red gold, engraved with four dragons, which is the golden seal of the regent of the Han Dynasty, the symbol of the uncrowned king, and the authority is second only to the jade seal of the country!
"Mother-in-law's words, I am really ashamed of my son-in-law, this world - it is the prime minister's overcoming obstacles, after more than 100 battles, how can he let his children and grandchildren be handed down to others?
The son-in-law is deeply favored by the prime minister, and it is too late to repay the service desperately, how dare he think of anything wrong, but only to be loyal to the prime minister, and the successor master, and do his duty as a minister! ”
In the face of the right to rule the world, it is not tempting to say that it is fake, but Xiao Yi understands better that it is easy to take the talismans and seals, but it is difficult to hold them, if you don't grasp them well, your net worth and life will accompany you!
Therefore, Xiao Yi took three steps back, knelt down on one knee and saluted, resolutely refused to accept the talisman and seal, and made it clear that even if something unbearable happened, the power left by the prime minister should be replaced by the Cao family, and he had absolutely no ambition!
Is Xiao Yi really ambitious, of course not, his ambition is enough to devour the world's Kyushu and the wilderness of the Quartet, the reason why he refuses to take over the power, because within a moment of entering the big tent, Xiao Yi has already determined one thing - the traitor is not dead!
