Farmer of Shu Han

Chapter 1029 Hidden Front (2)

"Cao Rui has decided to live in Xuchang for a long time, and the Luoyang government offices will definitely move to Xuchang as well. At least the most important government offices will be moved before Sima Yi returns to Luoyang."

The goddess may know Cao Rui's real physical condition, but Mi Shishilang can get the most reliable inside information from Princess Qinghe.

From what Princess Qinghe said intermittently on weekdays, Mi Shishilang judged that Cao Rui might not trust Sima Yi anymore.

Regarding the battle in Guanzhong, you can say anything now.

Why was Feng thief able to make a surprise attack thousands of miles away?

Why did Bingzhou Hedong happen to be empty of troops?

Why did Da Sima confront Ge Zei in Wuzhangyuan, but watched the 50,000 imperial guards brutally besieged and wiped out by Ge Thief?

Is this because the Shu captives were too aggressive, or was it deliberately done by someone who supported himself?

...

Mi Shishilang believed that from the moment Sima Yi decided to lead his troops out of Guanzhong, Cao Rui would not leave Sima Yi with any official office in Luoyang that would have an important influence on the court.

He looked at the celestial girl with a steady tone:

"It is rumored that Sima Yi has already led the army through Tongguan. Time is running out. Soon there will be chaos in Luoyang. That is your best chance."

There is a great Han army in the west, especially the ghost king Feng in the northwest, who may flee to Luoyang City to fish someday.

In the southeast, there is constant harassment from the state of Wu, and in the interior, it is necessary to guard against powerful ministers who hold military power.

Under such internal and external difficulties, Cao Rui had been ill for a long time, so he probably didn't have the energy to arrange for the goddess, at most, he would let the people below arrange it.

But the celestial girl has a special status. Although she lives in the harem, she is not confined in the imperial palace like a concubine in the harem, and she is not allowed to leave half a step.

As long as she thinks of a way, there will always be a chance to leave the palace - although the chance is rare, only one time is enough.

"Then when will I leave the palace again?"

The goddess asked impatiently.

"Five days, I need at least five days to arrange, and after five days, you will come to the Princess Mansion in the name of exorcising evil spirits."

"No!" The goddess flatly refused, "Five days is too long, I only have three days at most, and I will leave the palace to look for you after three days."

Mi Shishilang frowned, a little impatient.

If someone else dared to threaten him like this, he would have killed him long ago.

Do you really think this is a big man?

This is the capital of the puppet Wei. If he is not careful, he will be decapitated.

It's just that he can't move the woman in front of him now, not only can't move, but he also needs to comfort her, otherwise the risk will be too great.

"For three days, the time is too tight, and there may be omissions in the arrangement. If someone finds out, the consequences will be disastrous."

"That's better than waiting to die."

The goddess shook her head, her tone firm.

Mi Shishilang finally couldn't help but sneered:

"When you came to Luoyang, didn't you think that one day things would be revealed? Why are you so afraid of death now?"

"In the days before coming to Luoyang, life was better than death. Even if you were going to die in Luoyang, you would have to enjoy yourself before you die."

Tiannv rolled her eyes, "Now that I have a chance to not die, of course it's better not to die."

She didn't feel that there was anything wrong with what she did.

The peasants under Cao Wei's rule had a hard life.

In other words, in today's world, farmers all over the world are suffering.

I have worked so hard all year round and never have a free moment, and that's all.

The key is that more than half of the food grown has to be handed in, but I can't even fill my belly.

Not to mention the hard labor that has to be conscripted throughout the year, it is even more miserable.

Why are there many people who would rather entrust their land to a wealthy family than cultivate it.

It is because those powerful people can shelter them from heavy taxes and labor.

Mi Shishilang let out a "chi" laugh:

"Even if you escaped here to become a big man, how do you know that you don't want to continue to be a peasant woman?"

The goddess sneered without showing any weakness:

"At any rate, I have some relationship with Mr. Hua Tuo's sect. I heard that there are Mr. Hua Tuo's disciples under Feng Junhou's command. I have some things on hand. They should be very interested."

Hua Tuo was killed, his disciples scattered, and the "Qing Nang Shu" written before his death was also burned.

It can be said that the medical knowledge of Hua Tuo's lineage is already in disarray.

Fan A and Li Dangzhi are doing well in Dahan now, and they have the potential to revive their sect.

They also know that the reason why they are doing well is because they have extraordinary medical skills.

So they wanted to reproduce Hua Tuo's medical skills even more.

But Fan Ashan is good at acupuncture and Li Dangzhi is good at medicine, but there is a lack of a character who can perfectly combine acupuncture and medicine.

This person is Wu Pu, another disciple of Hua Tuo.

Mi Shishilang suddenly raised his head and stared at the goddess.

First he joined the Xinghan Club, then he became a potential opponent of Feng Guiwang, and finally he was forced to exile. Mi Shishilang knew Feng Guiwang quite well.

So of course he knew that Guiwang Feng's operations that were generally incomprehensible for children's play more than ten years ago basically had a lot of meaning in hindsight.

It is the best example of spending a lot of time and money to train medical workers.

In the words of the Liangzhou army, it is life or death in battle. Not only will the family be exempted from corvee and taxes, but it can even give the child a place in the school, which is not a loss.

If it was born, it was either injured or intact, and it goes without saying that it was intact. Maybe it could make a contribution when the ancestral grave smoked.

If you are injured, you will either be disabled or recover.

If he becomes disabled, it doesn't matter if he returns to his hometown as a villager or something, or as a security guard for the Xinghan Society.

Even going to Dongfeng Express to be a transportation team leader is a way that ordinary people can't find. Without the experience of serving in the army, these positions will not be easily open to ordinary people.

It's okay to be injured, everyone knows that the military doctors under Feng Guiwang are top-notch.

Others in the army were seriously injured and almost died, but the military doctors in the Liangzhou army were different. They had the confidence to dare to rob people from the king of hell.

Others have to rest for more than half a year when they are injured, but Liangzhou Army Chinese medicine workers can make you alive and kicking in three months.

To sum it up in one sentence: How can it be so easy to want to die?

Veterans who have experienced life and death are the most precious wealth in the army.

This is one of the reasons why every time a battle is fought, the opponent will find Feng Guiwang more difficult to deal with next time.

Because under his command, the proportion of veterans is astonishingly high.

Mi Shishilang not only understands this, but also knows that Tiannv is indeed related to Hua Tuo's sect.

If what the other party said was true, then he had to find a way to send her out, and it would be best to send her to Feng Guiwang - this was no small contribution.

"How do I know what you said is true?"

Mi Shishilang sat up straight and asked.

Seeing his movement, the celestial girl seemed to be laughing as her veil fluctuated:

"If you don't believe me, I can teach you a few moves. As long as you keep practicing, you won't feel guilty when you face Princess Qinghe in the future."

Mi Shishilang's expression changed.

As the saying goes, thirty is like a wolf, forty is like a tiger.

He is not the kind of ghost king Feng who calls himself a jackal.

Facing Princess Qinghe, who had been a widow for many years and then had a need for revenge, occasionally he would feel guilty.

Although it is only sometimes, this kind of "sometimes" is naturally not the best.

Mi Shishilang pondered, then asked:

"Can you climb mountains?"

"What?"

"Climbing the mountain, it is definitely not feasible to take the road of Hangu Pass now. We can only find a way to cross the north and go up the mountain, and then cross the mountain and enter the east of the river."

In the section of the great river between Chang'an and Luoyang, there may be only a few famous crossings.

But there are quite a few small ferries without names.

the reason is simple.

Because Hedong County, which is separated from Luoyang by mountains and rivers, is an important salt supplier in the Central Plains.

Salt smuggling is huge profits.

Since it was smuggling, he naturally couldn't take the official route of Zhiguan, so he could only cross Wangwu Mountain with salt on his back and go south to the edge of the big river.

Then find a small wild ferry and sneak across the river.

"The two mountains of Taihang and Wangwu are 700 li in square and 10,000 ren in height. They are originally located in the south of Jizhou and north of Heyang..."

The "Taihang and Wangwu Mountains" in Yugong Yishan refer to Taihang Mountain in the east of Bingzhou and Wangwu Mountain in the southeast of the river.

These small ferry crossings are not suitable for a large army, but as long as you find a good boatman who is willing to spend money and life, and take a good chance, there is no problem in crossing dozens or even dozens of people.

"You really have a way!"

The goddess beamed with joy.

This was originally one of the secret retreats that Mi Shishilang had found for himself, but now it can only be given to the goddess.

But you can't give it away for nothing.

Mi Shishilang secretly decided in his heart that if this woman lied to him in order to survive, he would have ten thousand ways to make her regret it.

Do you think the surname Mi is easy to bully in the big man?

"It's just too deceiving!"

The exquisite celadon teacup was thrown on the floor covered with fine velvet carpet, and rolled in circles without breaking...

Cao Rui was half lying on the couch, his eyes were red, and he was panting heavily.

Forcibly supporting the sick body, his body can no longer bear it.

His cheeks were sunken into two pools, his nose was like a vertical piece of wood, and his forehead shone with a dull, pale light.

Although he was very angry, he could no longer utter a loud voice, hissing, with a messy thread in his throat:

"Too much deception, a traitor! He shouldn't have been allowed to leave Luoyang in the first place, and he should have been imprisoned until death!"

The defeat of Sun Quan in the south did not make Cao Rui very happy.

People from Wu, you are a fool!

The North commits crimes every year, and which time can they succeed?

The Shu captives in the west are the confidants of the Great Wei.

Not to mention that there are rebellious officials and thieves like Sima Yi inside!

A total of 50,000 Janissaries!

The most trusted general, the most reliable elite army, just disappeared without a sound...

Cao Rui cursed and cursed, tears flowed from his sunken eyes:

"I'm sorry Asu, Asu, I'm sorry for you..."

"I shouldn't have let you lead the army to Guanzhong in the first place, I should have brought you to Xuchang..."

After Cao Rui came to Xuchang, he had no way to deal with the government affairs.

All affairs in the court are handled by Zhongshu Sheng and Shang Shutai.

Liu Fang, Sun Zi and others finally got their wish and began to secretly control Cao Rui's external communication channels.

Unless Cao Rui took the initiative to summon foreign ministers, it would be extremely difficult for courtiers to enter the palace to have an audience.

As for Cao Rui now, it is good enough to remember the people closest to him, so how can he have the energy to remember those foreign ministers?

Therefore, Liu Fang, Sun Zi and others' small actions were not noticed at all.

In his eyes, Sun and Liu are still the most trustworthy veterans of the three dynasties.

But Sun and Liu have already begun to show their ferocious fangs to their political opponents.

They have been encouraging Cao Rui to march eastward, for what purpose?

Isn't it just to prevent Cao Zhao Qin Lang and others from becoming auxiliary ministers?

Now Qin Lang has disappeared - although the way of disappearing is a bit too cruel, not the original intention of the two of them.

They didn't want to bring down Wei, but their fate was their own, and Wei belonged to the emperor.

Life is gone, Da Wei can't collapse, what's the point to them?

And now they are on the same boat as Sima Yi.

Sima Yi fulfilled their request, now it's their turn to fulfill Sima Yi's request.

"Has King Yan come?"

"Your Majesty, His Highness King Yan is already waiting outside."

"Let him in."

"promise."

King Yan Cao Yu entered the bedroom, he didn't dare to look up, he just saluted in the direction of Cao Rui:

"Chen Yu sees His Majesty."

Cao Rui didn't have the extra energy to talk nonsense, he looked at his uncle (Cao Yu is the son of Cao Cao and Mrs. Huan), and said straight to the point:

"King Yan, I want to worship you as a great general to help the latecomers manage the affairs of the court, how about it?"

Cao Yu was so frightened that he quickly lay down on the ground:

"I accept Your Majesty's wrong love, and I am sincere and fearful. However, I am naturally dull, and it is difficult for me to take on heavy responsibilities. If Your Majesty insists on letting me take the post of General, and harm the country in the future, I am afraid that it will insult Your Majesty's sage name. Please take it back."

Looking at Cao Yu's appearance, Cao Rui showed a disappointed look on his face.

It has come to this point, isn't my uncle willing to stand up?

He wanted to persuade him again, but his physical strength was exhausted.

Lian Zhao, who had been standing by the couch all this time, understood, walked up to Cao Yu, bent down and said in a low voice:

"King Yan, Your Majesty knows your intentions, please go back."

Only then did Cao Yu stand up and retreat respectfully.

Lian Zhao sent Cao Yu to the door, and Sun and Liu, who were guarding outside the door, rushed to meet him.

Cao Yu didn't say much, bowed his hands to the two of them, and left.

Sun and Liu looked at Lian Zhao, who nodded invisibly.

Sun Zi and Liu Fang breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, the two Zhongshu are here."

Lian Zhao returned to Cao Rui and said softly.

Cao Rui, who originally closed his mind to gather strength, opened his eyes and sighed:

"The king of Yan is still unwilling to take the post of general, which really disappoints me."

Sun Zi took a step forward and replied:

"Your Majesty, it may be because the King of Yan knows that he can't take on the important task, so that's the case."

Cao Rui sighed again:

"Even King Yan can't take on big responsibilities, so who else can reassure me?"

"Your Majesty, those who can take on the important task are already waiting outside. Why don't Your Majesty summon you and ask about it?"

"who?"

"Cao Zhaobo."

Cao Rui was silent at first, then simply closed his eyes.

After a long time, he muttered dreamily: "Cao Shuang?"

"Exactly."

"Where is Changsi?" (that is, Cao Zhao)

"Your Majesty, Chang Shi Cao has not been to the palace for several days."

Cao Rui opened his eyes suddenly, staring at Sun and Liu in front of the bed.

Liu Fang and Sun Zi bowed their heads in silence, as if they were waiting for Cao Rui to summon Cao Shuang.

There was an eerie silence in Cao Rui's bedroom.
