"Not to mention how Bai Chuan is, just because he can fight against the nobles, he will be favored by Duke Wei."
"The princes are all from noble families, so you should understand in your heart."
"If Duke Wei wants to ascend the throne and replace Han, he will definitely attack some noble families first."
"It is not a good thing for Duke Wei to have the gentry in power, and it needs to be neutralized."
"And the neutralizer is Bai Chuan."
"With Duke Wei's support, do you think Bai Chuan will become a force to be reckoned with?"
Hearing what Sima Yi said, everyone was speechless.
Duke Wei's support...
If you think about it carefully, it is true.
Why did Bai Chuan jump from an unknown soldier to today's sergeant Jijiu, and he is still in charge of tiger and leopard cavalry?
It is one aspect of showing talent and making outstanding achievements repeatedly.
But there is another aspect, which is Cao Cao's support.
If Cao Cao hadn't secretly supported Bai Chuan, I'm afraid Bai Chuan would have been suppressed by the gentry and disappeared when he just came out of the mountain.
This kind of humble talent, there was a Guo Jia before, Guo Jia was weak, and he was trusted by Cao Cao, so the gentry would not do anything.
Bai Chuan is not a frail scholar, he is someone who can fight Guan Yu back!
This kind of person, for the gentry, cannot stay!
With the support of Cao Cao, the nature will change completely.
It is not impossible for Bai Chuan to grow into a state that can compete with the gentry!
"Now, it is no longer the world of the Han Dynasty, and it will become the world of Duke Wei in the future."
"The new dynasty will be established, do you think that Duke Wei will leave behind these old gentry factions?"
Every sentence of Sima Yi's words made everyone speechless.
Chapter 198 Could it be that you still have something to say to me
"I have fully understood the meaning of the gentlemen."
"In the past few days, gentlemen, make preparations, and I will think about it."
Cao Pi waved his hand and said in a deep voice:
"Please go back, gentlemen."
Seeing what Cao Pi said, everyone had to accept orders and left one after another.
Only Sima Yi was indifferent. After everyone left, he still stood where he was.
This can't help but cause Cao Pi to say with some doubts:
"Why didn't Zhongda leave?"
"Is there anything else you want to tell me?"
Sima Yi smiled and said:
"I dare to guess, it should be that the young master has something to say to me."
Hearing this, Cao Pi suddenly laughed and said:
"As expected of Zhong Da, he can really guess what's in my heart."
"Yes, I do have something to talk to you alone."
Sima Yi smiled slightly and said:
"Since the son said so, he must be considering my suggestion."
Cao Pi said in a deep voice:
"Earlier, you persuaded me to make friends with Bai Chuan."
"But he is indifferent, this person seems to be a lonely minister."
"You said earlier that Bai Chuan was supported by his father. If you say that, he is a subject directly under his father."
"In this way, it is even more impossible for me to win him over."
"Do you have an opinion?"
To be honest, Cao Pi is really anxious now.
Let alone anything else, now Cao Pi must make a choice as soon as possible.
Whether to choose to continue to befriend Bai Chuan, or to rush to win over the nobles.
Cao Pi is not a fool. It can be seen from the proclaiming of the public that the day when his father proclaims himself king and emperor may not be far away.
This shows that the position of the son of the world is about to be finalized.
If he continued to "calm down" like this, wouldn't it be in vain to hand over the position of son to Cao Zhi?
Cao Zhi has his father's favorite, what about himself?
Nothing at all.
My father has never looked at me highly, and treats me far worse than Cao Zhi.
This is Cao Pi's only advantage by keeping a low profile and accumulating contacts for so many years.
But a few days ago, they were all neutralized by Cao Cao.
If this continues, he will definitely not become the son of the world.
If you can't become a prince, you can't show your ambitions, and you will only become a mediocre person in Cao Cao's eyes.
Therefore, it is necessary to win over Bai Chuan.
With the current momentum of Bai Chuan, I am afraid that in less than a year, he is very likely to become an extremely powerful minister.
He alone could become a faction.
This is why Cao Pi did not show joy after hearing the suggestions of Chen Qun and others.
Now, the only one who understands himself and can help him is probably Sima Yi.
After thinking for a while, Sima Yi looked at Cao Pi and said slowly:
"Young master, have you thought about it?"
"Once you choose this path, there is no turning back."
"Choosing a humble family is the most dangerous path."
Cao Pi sighed lightly:
"How could I not know?"
"But since Zhong Da has such an idea, he must have seen its immeasurable point."
"Risk and reward often go hand in hand."
"Zhongda, go ahead."
Hearing this, Sima Yi took a deep breath and said:
"Young master, if you want to win over Bai Chuan, you have to let go of your airs."
"It's not the relationship between a son and a courtier, but contacting Bai Chuan as a friend."
"As a lone minister, Bai Chuan has both advantages and disadvantages."
"If you do this, there will inevitably be times when you can't do it alone."
"At this moment, young master, go and help Bai Chuan."
"No matter how you help, no matter whether you succeed or not, you must do your best."
"With this person, Bai Chuan, we must have a heart-to-heart relationship, and we must not have other thoughts."
"In this way, you will get the support of this person."
Hearing what Sima Yi said, Cao Pi was taken aback for a moment, then frowned.
Let go of your son's airs?
What does this mean?
To put it bluntly, it is to make myself like a good friend and visit Bai Chuan frequently.
Doing so, in fact, Cao Pi is somewhat repulsive.
Cao Pi has a cold personality and doesn't like to socialize with others.
But now, it seems that only if Sima Yi says so, can he get Bai Chuan's support.
"Since Zhong Da said so, why not give it a try."
Cao Pi made up his mind.
But Sima Yi shook his head and said:
"Young master, you can't do that."
Hearing this, Cao Pi was completely dumbfounded:
"What does Zhongda mean?"
"Then what should I do?"
Sima Yi said in a deep voice:
"Master, you must first forget that you are a son."
"Forget the battle between the sons."
"Forget Mr. Cao Zhi."
"What I remember is that we are congenial with Bai Chuan."
"Actually, the young master is not being troubled by strong people, but that Bai Chuan does have many similarities with the young master."
"Bai Chuan attaches great importance to people's livelihood. It should be because he came from a poor family, so he attaches great importance to the people."
"And the young master thinks so too."
"Use this as a basis to make friends with Bai Chuan."
"Remember, you must forget everything else, just want to make friends."
"Bai Chuan is very smart, sometimes it's hard for me to see through him."
"If you go with your mind, young master, he will definitely see it. If so, it won't work."
What Sima Yi said was from the bottom of his heart.
Regarding Bai Chuan, Sima Yi had a feeling that he couldn't see through him at all.
It was as if this person was not from this world at all.
What he thinks and what he does are unpredictable, making it impossible to guess what he wants to do.
The more so, the more pure it must be.
Only by being pure can one befriend Bai Chuan.
Seeing that Cao Pi was still frowning, Sima Yi sighed and said:
"To put it bluntly, the young master has to be ready to make friends with him, and he is not necessarily ready to help the young master win the position of the son of the world."
Cao Pi nodded heavily:
"I understand."
"Zhongda, I'm a little puzzled about you."
"As my vassal, you recommended me to acquire such talents."
"Then Bai Chuan's talent is probably not inferior to yours, aren't you afraid that my son will alienate you because of this?"
