Chapter 603 Cao Rui will die
"Youchang, although you are now Kong Ming's apprentice, the Crown Prince and Tutor, a Cavalry General and have the power to open a government, and you are also the same as the Third Division...but, we have to learn to be humble!"
"You are so high-profile and completely disregard the court's attitude. Aren't you really worried that His Majesty will be suspicious of you one day?" Faced with Ma Di's attitude, Huang Quan said helplessly, intending to persuade him.
As a minister, even if Your Majesty doesn't care, there are some things that you cannot override at will. The distinction between monarch and minister is an iron law in this feudal dynasty.
For someone like Ma Su, any other emperor would have lost his head and body. Liu Chan didn't care about this now, otherwise Ma Su would have been buried long ago.
"Being suspected? Is there such a good thing?" Ma Di was startled and said subconsciously.
"Um?"
"No, I mean, now is an extraordinary period. Not only does Kanto need to be recovered, but the people of the world also need to be united. These are all big problems!"
"If you are just worried about being suspected, and don't share your worries for you, is this still the way of a gentleman?" Ma Di said righteously, his attitude seemed very firm.
"No matter what, I have to implement this!"
"You... really don't care about your posthumous name at all." Huang Quan twitched the corners of his mouth, becoming more aware of Ma Su's stubbornness.
"Posthumous name? I don't care about that stuff. If I had that thought, I could have saved thousands more lives." Ma Di shrugged, not caring about it either. Then he began to write a letter to reply to Liu Chan under Huang Quan's nose.
The meaning of the letter is just one thing, that is, simply giving Sili Xiaowei is not enough to allow me, Ma Su, to govern Guandong safely. If you want to complete the goal requirements, you have to send the prince to supervise the country.
After writing it, Ma Su sent the letter directly back to Chang'an without worrying too much about anything else.
If Zhuge Liang was in Chang'an, he would have to come to Luoyang in person to whip him...
But for Ma Su, this is just a small matter. There are still many things that he needs to solve as soon as possible, including appeasing Luoyang and winning people's hearts, and at the same time, he has to find a way to bring Mr. Tian Yu's family back from Yecheng.
It is worth mentioning that after Tian Yu was sent to Huang Quan, his plan to commit suicide by hunger strike failed. As an old man of his generation, Huang Quan didn't tolerate him at all. If he didn't eat, he would force him to eat. If he had the ability, he would bite his tongue and commit suicide.
In the end, Tian Yu compromised and gave up the hunger strike and committed suicide. But he still said that he would not be allowed to surrender until his family was rescued.
However, what troubled Ma Su was that his original plan to exchange Tian Yu's family with Jiang Ji went bankrupt when Jiang Ji committed suicide in Luoyang. Except for Tian Yu, Ma Di had almost no bargaining chips to exchange.
Fei Yaojia, the only prisoner, was not enough to exchange for Tian Yu.
Ma Su had no choice but to announce that Tian Yu was dead to confuse the public. Then secretly ordered the Military Council to infiltrate Yecheng to see if there was a chance to rescue people.
It stands to reason that after such a huge defeat, Zhongyuan Prefecture and County were in chaos, and the whole country was in panic. Under such chaos, the capital of Cao and Wei would not be very stable, and there should be a chance to save people.
Next, it depends on whether God will give him face or not...

At the same time, Xiangping, Liaodong,
This former capital of Gongsun Yuan had been completely conquered by the Wei army.
After Sima Yi, an old artist, no longer faced the Shu army, he immediately let himself go. He only led 20,000 Wei troops to come and defeated the Liaodong Army in just a few months.
In the end, Gongsun Yuan was also hit by Sima Yi's complete dimensionality reduction. Before he had a chance to escape south, he was surrounded by Sima Yi in Xiangping.
After several battles, Sima Yi won a decisive victory with a small number and a large number. Sima Division imitated Ma Su's strategy of charging into the formation and beheading Gongsun Yuan, and Liaodong was decided in one battle.
For Sima Yi, after playing high-end games all his life, he finally had the opportunity to play in the bronze game. For a moment, it was like drinking ice water on a dog day in June, it was extremely refreshing.
Moreover, he also discovered a great talent in Qingzhou during this battle. A young nobleman from the Taiyang family showed great talent in the Battle of Xiangping, and Sima Shi once hoped to sworn a sworn sworn brother with him.
All these things made Sima Yi feel that he was not too incompetent, just because Ma Su was too strong.
However, on the night when the Wei army captured Xiangping and completely took back Liaodong, Sima Yi had a dream.
In the dream, he himself was resting on Cao Rui's thigh, as if he had the blessing of Long Yang. Just when Sima Yi was about to struggle to get up, he heard Cao Rui's extremely weak voice, and his expression changed.
"Come back quickly and see my face then!"
Before he finished speaking, Sima Yi suddenly woke up and realized that it was just a dream.
"It's broken! Something big happened in Yecheng!" Thinking of the dream he had just had and the Han army was ready to move before the joint departure, Sima Yi's expression suddenly changed slightly.
If I guessed correctly, this dream might be foreshadowing something for me. If your guess is correct... His Majesty is having a physical problem?
Thinking of this, Sima Yi suddenly couldn't sit still, and that night he ordered the entire army to prepare for withdrawal.
Sima Yi's preparation was timely. When the Wei army was almost ready, the urgent letter from Yecheng arrived.
This urgent letter is an order from Cao Rui.
"When I look at it from the side, I will go straight into the pavilion and look at my face!"
Such a sentence made the veteran official's face change slightly. At this time, Sima Yi was sure that something big was going on in the Central Plains. Looking at the situation, Cao Rui was afraid that he would die!
Faced with this situation, Sima Yi did not dare to neglect and immediately set off back to Yecheng. In just over ten days, he rode his horse back west and returned to Yecheng as quickly as possible.
After Sima Yi returned to Yecheng, he immediately discovered that the atmosphere in the DPRK was not right. After briefly understanding the situation in the Central Plains, Sima Yi understood what was going on.
This loss is a bit too tragic...it seems like it won't work without me.
Later, Sima Yi came to the palace under the leadership of his close ministers. In the palace in Yecheng, he saw Cao Rui, who was pale and looked like he was about to die.
"Your Majesty!" Sima Yi was shocked by Cao Rui's appearance and saluted quickly.
"Lieutenant, you are back." Cao Rui looked at Sima Yi who had returned, seemed to be a little more energetic, and said softly.
"I am dying, but the Wei Dynasty is in turmoil and the country is about to collapse. You are the only one who can save the Wei Dynasty now!"
"Today I appoint you as Minister Tuogu to record the affairs of the Secretariat together with Cao Shuang... From now on, the final say in this Wei Dynasty is the two of you!"
"I have nothing to ask for, I only ask that you can stabilize the Wei Dynasty!"
