Great Wei Nengchen

The following is how to act. Go directly to the prime minister's mansion and ask for the power to open the mansion. That will definitely not work. The appearance is too ugly and will affect your reputation!

We must find a way to let Cao Cao take the initiative and officially grant the right to open the government and manage affairs in the name of the Han court... The first step is to pretend to be sick!

...............................................................

That night, Xiao Yi suddenly became 'ill', still suffering from severe typhoid fever, sweating profusely and talking gibberish... Let alone leading troops to the expedition, he even got out of bed and had to stay at home for a long time to recuperate!

The housekeeper, Song Zhong, went out for a trip and used various connections to spread the news... In just one day, everyone inside and outside the government knew that Da Sima was seriously ill!

Immediately afterwards, a memorial was sent to the prime minister's mansion, which was written by the eldest lady Cao Jie, saying that Xiao Yi was overworked, so that he was physically and mentally haggard and suffered from serious illness, so he could not go south with the army. I hope that the prime minister will be considerate of his subordinates and allow him to stay. Cultivate in the rear!

Xiao Yi was advancing by retreating, asking for the right to open the government and manage affairs, but he still missed one point, which was people's desire to gossip and their ability to spread rumors and make trouble!

"Have you heard that Da Sima stayed in Tianxiang Tower overnight and monopolized dozens of popular singers, but he contracted typhoid fever and became bedridden!"

"The brothel is a place where flowers sleep and willows sleep, how can you get the wind-cold syndrome... There are gossip that Da Sima is exhausted so much that the horse stumbled!"

"Dozens of red singers, all of them are like wolves and tigers. Da Sima has a body of iron, and I'm afraid he can't stand it. It's normal for a horse to stumble!"

..............................

Xuchang City - On the streets, people were whispering and talking about Xiao Yi's illness, but in the process of spreading, the news kept changing, from a serious political topic to a romantic affair!

This kind of romantic topic is the most popular, one spreads to ten, ten spreads to a hundred... Almost everyone in the court, inside and outside Xuchang knows it, and the limelight surpasses the upcoming Southern Expedition!

After some officials found out, they brought ginseng, ganoderma, velvet antler, and bird's nest tonics to visit the Marquis of Wuchou. The generals were even more ferocious. They ran straight into the mountains, captured a few male tigers, and sent them over... ...Tiger penis wine is a great tonic!

"I have wind-cold syndrome, wind-cold syndrome, wind-cold syndrome, the important thing is said three times, it is by no means a mistake!"

"I'm going to Tianxiang Tower again, so that people can take a good look at it. This Da Sima is strong and strong enough to kill a tiger. How many women can't be dealt with?"

"Dear Sima, please calm down. Now is the critical moment. If you can't bear it, you will make a big conspiracy. Just grit your teeth and admit it!"

..............................

There is no impenetrable wall in the world, Xiao Yi soon realized that white smoke was coming out of his brow, first he called the housekeeper - Song Zhong, cleaned him up severely, then got on his horse, and was about to enter the Tianxiang Tower again!

A man, a real man, is not afraid of infamy, notoriety, and killing... Only on the bed, you must not be subdued. This is a matter of dignity!

The counselors persuaded Xiao Yi for a long time before they calmed down Xiao Yi. They just declared to the outside world: Da Sima suddenly fell ill and was bedridden, and now he is jumping out alive and kicking, isn't it a slap in the face for himself, and the business of opening the mansion is over!

The people in Wuchouhou's mansion and others wanted to make a distinction. Da Sima just caught the wind and cold by accident, and it wasn't a horse that stumbled, but once the rumors appeared, it was useless to explain, and it could only be described more and more darkly. I had no choice but to shut up, and silence is the default!

....................................................................................

"Xiao Lang has a strong body and is not lustful for women. How could he stay overnight in a brothel and stumble? There must be fraud in it!"

"Could it be that you want to stay in Xuchang City, take advantage of the fierce battle between the old man and the princes, suddenly launch a mutiny, cut off the old man's food and grass, and retreat... You must guard against this!"

After Cao Cao heard the rumors, his jaw almost dropped. Pretending to be sick is one of the basic skills in the officialdom. This kind of weird excuse is unheard of in ancient and modern times. Could it be that the son-in-law's thick and dark skills are already superior to his own?

The grand plan of the Southern Expedition has been decided, regardless of Xiao Yi's real illness or fake illness, even if he is paralyzed, he must be carried to the battlefield, because if Xiao Yi stays in the rear, Cao Cao will have trouble sleeping and eating!

And Liu Biao's strength is not weak, he has 30 to [-] soldiers and horses, sufficient money, food, ordnance, and Liu Bei as his minions, without Xiao Yi's command, Cao Jun has no certainty of victory!

Xuanjia Army, Suppression Camp, Danyang Soldiers, Modao Soldiers, Guanzhong Soldiers, Digger Soldiers... These elite troops were all formed by Xiao Yi. If he didn't show up, no one else would be able to command them, not even Cao Cao himself. , A few soldiers and horses will only obey and obey, so the battle will be impossible to fight!

The most important thing: Cao Cao really harbored evil intentions, and wanted Xiao Yi to lead the troops to take the lead and fight to the death with Liu Biao and Liu Bei. No matter who fell, it would be beneficial to the Cao family!

"What a cunning boy, you are not sick from the cold, but want to take this opportunity to blackmail and ask the old man for power?"

Cao Cao was a cunning person, so he immediately thought of the memorial - the four characters of "heart and heart haggard".

For decades in the world, Cao Cao bullied the emperor, oppressed all officials, and the princes of the four directions were all afraid. He was the only one who blackmailed others. When has he ever been blackmailed by others?

The traitor was instantly enraged, and he stretched out his hand to pull out the Yitian sword, and he was about to mobilize the 'Tiger and Leopard Riders' to kill and run to Wushouhou's mansion, and then give Xiao Yi... "This son is full of wings, what can I do for this old man!"

After sighing for a while, Cao Cao put his sword back into its sheath again. Apart from anger, there was more helplessness in his heart, because he had weighed it over and over again, and now he couldn't turn his back on Xiao Yi!

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses are ready to go, millions of civilians are busy day and night, countless ordnance, food, money... have also gathered, the chariot of the Caoying Group has already started, even if I can't let it stop, otherwise There will be a big mess!

If they turned against Xiao Yi at this time, there would be chaos within Cao Ying, and the upcoming battle to the south and the dream of the traitor to unify the world would be in vain!

Besides, if I really met Xiao Yi with a sword, I was not sure of winning, and I might suffer a big loss. I used to suppress Xiao Yi, but I am afraid I won't be able to suppress it in the future!

"Endure the calm for a while, take a step back to the sky in Haikou, and when the old man steps down to the south of the Yangtze River, he must let out this bad breath!"

Cao Cao hesitated for a long time, but decided to grant - the right to open the mansion, in exchange for Xiao Yi's full support, to crusade against the southern princes!

As long as the army goes out smoothly, takes Jingzhou and Jiangdong as soon as possible, and completes the great cause of unifying the world, the Cao family can logically replace the decadent Han Dynasty. At that time, it will not be too late to settle accounts after autumn!

Chapter 1204 Traveler - Not God's Favorite!

"The emperor of the Han Dynasty said: I rule the world with literature, and use military force to fight chaos. I seek the great order of the world, and I really rely on my ministers. Today, there is a great Sima Xiaoyi who has achieved outstanding military exploits and repeatedly defeated barbarians. He is actually the pillar of the court. The country To achieve success, he is specially granted the right to open the government and manage affairs, allowing him to set up his own officials and handle military and political affairs, so as to ensure the integrity of the society...The ninth year of Jian'an in the Han Dynasty-May 28!"

A few days later, a servant came to the Marquis of Wuchou's mansion with the imperial decree in his hand. He stood in the lobby and read it loudly. He praised Xiao Yi's achievements and granted him the right to open the mansion. The emperor in name, has to use his name to promulgate the imperial decree in the great event of conquering rebellion and rewarding heroes!

Immediately afterwards, the Jun Ling from the Prime Minister's Mansion also arrived. In addition to words of congratulations, he also sent a Jinlin token, which can be used to command the three armies, as well as set official seals, swords, clothing, documents for subordinates... Various applications things!

With the emperor's decree and the Prime Minister's Order, Xiao Yi can use the status of Da Sima to formally open the government and set up officials. Appeared in the court frame!

Xiao Yi was seriously ill and couldn't walk around yet, so he had to let the eldest son Xiao Xuan come forward to welcome the imperial decree, kowtow to God, and treat the envoy well, not to mention delicious food and drink, and rich red envelopes before leaving!

"I'm waiting to congratulate Da Sima--opening the government to manage affairs, setting up officials, and his achievements will shine even brighter!"

"Xiaguan's family has a dog, who is quite smart and eager to learn. If Sima Meng does not give up, he is willing to work in the Marquis Mansion!"

"Xiaguan also has a few sons who are willing to follow Master Sima—leading the horse and riding the horse, serving the left and right!"

........................

After the civil and military officials heard the news, they came to the door one after another with gifts, and some even brought their own nephews to recommend them to the shogunate. For recommended talents, admission is also based on merit!

This is not a simple banquet, but a shouting flag, clearly telling the world that in the political arena of the Han Dynasty, the Xiao family is unique and has its own independent status, equal to the princes of all walks of life!

As the saying goes: people are in good spirits on happy occasions, all diseases are cured after entering the mansion, and a few days later, Xiao Yi, who was bedridden with a sudden illness, turned the corner and recovered from his illness. He even wrote a memorial himself, Specially sent to the imperial palace, thank the emperor for his great kindness, and the minister will repay it with death!

The memorials in the imperial court are sent to the imperial palace in name, but they are actually the instructions of the prime minister. This is to tell Cao Cao clearly that you have given me the right to open the government and manage affairs, and I will repay you with gratitude. This time the war against Jingzhou , will definitely go all out and conquer the city!

That's what Xiao Yi said, and he did the same thing. After recovering from his illness, he immediately did a few things:

One is to set up the shogunate, set up subordinate officials, and start to work independently. Although the number and scale of its personnel are far inferior to Cao Cao's prime minister's mansion, although the sparrow is small, it has all five internal organs. Not a lot!

The second is to prepare the candidates for the expedition. Jia Xu, Feng Ji, Mi Heng, and Guo Yi are all with the army, responsible for planning strategies and participating in military aircraft, and Bai Viscount, who is locked in the small black room and desperately codes every day, was also dragged out by Xiao Yi , Appointed as the chief bookkeeper of the army, the novelist is good at home, even better than thousands of troops!

All the wives stayed behind. Some of them took care of their children, some were pregnant, and they were not suitable for going out with the army. As for Xiao Yi's private life, then don't worry about it. Will Ghost Face Xiao Lang still lack women?

Xiao Jing brought the Women's Army and made a fuss about going out with the army, but Xiao Yi forcibly stopped her. She had been married to Guo Yi for several years, and she already had something in her stomach. That was the eldest grandson of the Guo family!
