Chapter 121: The Nightmare of Three Horses in the Same Slot (Third Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
According to Xiahou Hui's suggestion, Xiahou Mao arranged for some people to approach Dunwu, and through various means, he finally got more information about Wei Ba. Dunwu couldn't resist the small favors of those people, and revealed Wei Ba's "secrets" little by little, and finally gathered them all in front of Xiahou Hui.
Knowing that Wei Ba was indeed a master of arithmetic as she predicted, Xiahou Hui was very satisfied, and Xiahou Mao was also very satisfied. As the details continued to come back from Hanzhong and bring back news about Wei Ba, Wei Ba gradually revealed his "true form" in front of them.
Although Hanzhong currently announces that Wei Ba is dead, judging from various appearance descriptions, this Wei Ba in Chang'an should be the real Wei Ba. Hanzhong's announcement of his death should be the result of a compromise between Zhuge Liang and Wei Yan, and they did not want to engage in civil and military infighting because of this.
After figuring out the details of Wei Ba, some of Wei Ba's great achievements have also entered the field of vision of Xiahou Mao and others, these achievements are somewhat deformed because of the paraphrasing, but the basic skeleton is still clear. When they learned about Wei Ba's actions in the Battle of Fangling, Xiahou Mao was happy and worried, happy that Wei Ba was really a treasure, but worried that he couldn't use it, even if Wei Ba was a peerless general.
And Xiahou Hui's mood was a little complicated. She now understands that Wei Ba Weishenme said from the beginning that he didn't want to be an enemy of his father, with Wei Ba's ability to use soldiers, if Xiahou Mao said that he was not tempted at all, it was impossible. However, what made her even more uneasy was that the people who fell to Wei Ba were none other than her future uncle Sima Yi (the Three Kingdoms called her father-in-law her uncle and her mother-in-law her aunt) and her future husband, Sima Shi.
Unlike others who regard Sima Yi as a scholar, Xiahou Hui is very aware of Sima Yi's ability, as one of Emperor Wen's four friends, Sima Yi, who has made great contributions to Emperor Wen's ascension to the throne, has never been a pure scholar.
Wei Ba played for the first time, facing Sima Yi, and he could have such a result. Xiahou Hui was surprised. Although she still can't figure out what the real situation looks like, the results speak for themselves. A surprise attack by Sima Yi that could have gone down in history ended up being a joke. That was enough to surprise her.
At the same time, it also made her vigilant.
However, this vigilance came inexplicably, and even she couldn't tell what the reason for this vigilance was, and she even felt that her vigilance against such a homeless descendant as Wei Ba was only out of jealousy, out of jealousy that he was better than her future husband.
Xiahou Hui flipped through the information about Wei Ba. Dai's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she sighed silently.
"What's wrong?" Princess Qinghe walked in with raised eyebrows and joy, just in time to see Xiahou Hui's sigh. Hurriedly asked with concern.
Xiahou Hui smiled lightly: "It's nothing." Princess, where are you from? β
"Hee-hee, nothing." Princess Qinghe sat down according to Xiahou Hui, glanced at the information on the case, and couldn't help laughing: "This Wei Ba is really useful, not to mention anything else, after he came." At least your uncle is no longer fooling around with those foxes, and has finally done something serious. β
"Really?" Xiahou Hui covered his lips and chuckled, "In my opinion, it was the princess who came, and he accepted it." β
"You girl. Also to make fun of the elders? Princess Qinghe pretended to be angry, and after a while, she said regretfully: "It's a pity, his father is Wei Yan, otherwise, he can really be your uncle's good helper." Now, I can only keep it as a guest. β
Xiahou Hui asked in surprise: "What, the princess still wants him to lead the troops?" β
"With such a good general, wouldn't it be a pity not to bring troops." Princess Qinghe looked at Xiahou Hui's face, and suddenly laughed: "I know, Yuanrong, you are jealous of him." He defeated the hussar general, and Sima Shi, you are jealous. β
"Princess, I don't." Xiahou Hui blushed, turned around, and pursed his mouth in disguise.
Princess Qinghe took Xiahou Hui's hand, stroked it gently, and said in a low voice: "Yuanrong, it's not that I don't like their father and son, but there is a reason for this." From my heart, I am actually very opposed to you marrying into the Sima family. β
Xiahou Hui's heart moved: "Weishenme? β
Princess Qinghe put away her smile and her face became very serious. "Do you know that Weishenmebixia put aside all the four ministers?"
Xiahou Hui's eyes contracted, and he suddenly felt a little nervous. "Because...... Sima? β
Princess Qinghe nodded.
βweishenmeοΌβ Xiahou Hui asked this question again. According to the rules handed down by Emperor Wen, the two who should be paid the most attention should be Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu, even if it is a minister with a foreign surname, it should not be Sima, at least it should not be just Sima.
"When Emperor Wu was alive, he once had a dream." Princess Qinghe subconsciously lowered her voice, even though she knew that there would be no outsiders around her, she still lowered her voice to the point of almost whispering. She stuck it to Xiahou Hui's ear and muttered a few words, Xiahou Hui's eyes suddenly widened, and she instinctively took half a step back, looking at Princess Qinghe in horror: "Three horses in the same groove?" No. β
Princess Qinghe looked at Xiahou Hui's eyes expressionlessly: "Do you not believe me, or do you not believe in Emperor Wu?" β
"I ......" Xiahou Hui said. A chill surged through her heart, and she had suddenly figured out all the things she couldn't figure out.
Emperor Wen Cao Pi succeeded in competing for the throne, thanks to the four friends. Among the four friends, Chen Qun was born in the Yingchuan clan and has always been engaged in internal affairs and has never been involved in martial arts, so it is understandable that he does not lead troops. Among the other three, Sima Yi followed Emperor Wu to fight in the south and north very early, and his strategy was only comparable to Liu Ye, Jiang Ji and others. In the heart of Emperor Wen, Sima Yi, who was born in Sima County, Wenxian County, was also the most valued, but after Emperor Wen ascended the throne, Wu Zhen and Zhu Shuo both commanded heavy troops, but Sima Yi never touched the military power. If it weren't for the sudden death of her father Xiahou Shang, she really couldn't find someone she could trust, and Sima Yi was afraid that she would still be a civil servant.
Even so, before the death of Emperor Wen, Sima Yi had not personally led the troops to fight, and it was not until today's Bixia ascended the throne that Wu took advantage of Wei's national funeral and led troops to attack, and Sima Yi appeared on the battlefield for the first time as a general.
For today's Bixia's initiatives, Xiahou Hui can understand. But about Emperor Wen's arrangement, Xiahou Hui has always had doubts. It wasn't until today that she realized that it was from a dream of Emperor Wu. The Cao family has always been strongly vigilant against the Sima Yi family.
This dream, Emperor Wen knows, of course Bixia knows it now, and even Princess Qinghe knows it. Does his father Xiahou Shang know? If he knows, he will also marry himself to Sima Shi?
Terrible thoughts surged through Xiahou Hui's mind, setting off a monstrous wave. It made her shudder.
"Princess, you...... Are you lying to me? Xiahou Hui's face turned pale, and his voice trembled a little.
Princess Qinghe sighed and patted Xiahou Hui's hand: "Silly boy, I dare to joke with Emperor Wu to you?" β
Of course, Xiahou Hui knew that Princess Qinghe would not be bored to this point, she just didn't want to believe her ears. Her father, Xiahou Shang, married her to Sima Shi, which was obviously not as simple as marrying. is a silent dark chess, for the stability of the Cao family's world, but the price is her lifelong happiness.
She couldn't believe that her father, who loved her so much, would do such a thing, but she knew very well that if her father knew about Emperor Wu's dream of three horses in the same groove. He's going to do it.
Her sky suddenly collapsed, as if she had been abandoned by her father, even more pitiful than Wei Ba. Wei Ba was forced to flee by others, his father Wei Yan did not abandon him, but she was thrown out lightly by her loving father as a tool.
Princess Qinghe looked at Xiahou Hui's painful eyes, and regretted it for a while. She put her arm around Xiahou Hui's shoulders, held her in her arms, and said softly: "Child, I know you can't believe it, but what's the point, which family is not like this, how many women can marry their beloved?" This world is a man's world, and we women are just chess pieces in their hands, so how can we make our own decisions. If you want to cry, cry in my arms, and after crying, hide it in your heart. I know you're a smart kid and will know how to do it. β
Xiahou Hui couldn't hold back any longer, tears burst out of his eyes, threw himself into Princess Qinghe's arms and sobbed, and then cried loudly.

In the front hall, Wei Ba and Xiahou Mao were talking with their eyebrows. Today, he and Xiahou Mao talked about the Hetu Luo Book. Taoist learning comes from two kinds of learning, one is "Lao Tzu's Five Thousand Words" and "The Yellow Emperor's Neijing", which is the study of righteousness, that is, philosophy. One is the knowledge of the Yin and Yang family, such as the Book of Changes, Shushu and the like. In the Han Dynasty, Yixue is also known as the number of elephants, and the main content is an elephant, which refers to the hexagram, and a number, that is, the number of techniques, that is, the permutation and combination of various numbers. Hetuluoshu,It belongs to a kind of zuihou.,The content of the number of techniques.γ
Xiahou Mao was no stranger to these, but he heard something fresh from Wei Ba's mouth. Wei Ba took out a large river map with sixty-four numbers, which was much more complicated than the river map that Xiahou Mao knew.
Of course, Wei Ba didn't just talk about mathematics, he stuffed Zhou Yi's sixty-four hexagrams into it. Of course, with his level, he will definitely not be able to do this, this is personally formulated by Prime Minister Zhuge Cheng, and it cannot be ruled out that it also contains his own wisdom.
Xiahou Mao was stunned by Wei Bakan, he scratched his ears and cheeks with joy, and he did not have the solemnity of General Anxi and the Governor of Guanzhong. But unfortunately, at his level, he couldn't understand this picture that made him dizzy at first sight.
"This ...... Zhang Tu, is it really that amazing? β
"Of course." Wei Ba rubbed his palms, feeling a little nervous. After more than a month of hard work, he finally had to send the first signal to those who were anxiously waiting for his news. You must not be seen by Xiahou Mao, otherwise you won't be able to do the next thing. He just has the ability to go through the sky, if he is under house arrest and can't get out, even if he finds out the most confidential news, what can he do?
Only by sending the news out and into the hands of the prime minister will it be useful.
And these diagrams, which seem to be the sixty-four hexagrams of the I Ching, are actually a cipher table with implied information.
This is, of course, his own brainchild.
"General, this diagram is very complicated and involves a lot of deduction. If the general is interested, he may wish to invite some trusted masters to consult with him, and see if they can see some heavenly opportunities from it. β

The third is to ask for a monthly pass. Alas, June 1st has been happy for a day, and the ranking has been declining since yesterday, and Lao Zhuang is very popular. Thank you for your support.
PS: Speaking of monthly passes, Lao Zhuang browsed the ticket requests of the gods on the list with a lot of fun, and it was really brilliant. I have to say that the pressure of competing for a monthly ticket is not ordinary. Lao Zhuang doesn't dare to expect the top few, I just want to have a place in the top ten of the new book monthly ticket list, I will try my best to write, and please do your best to support. As for the single chapter, I won't write it, and if I have this time, I'd better write a little more manuscript and prepare for the explosion.
Lao Zhuang can say very awesome that as long as there are tickets, Lao Zhuang will add more. (To be continued.) )
