Chapter 233 Chatty Cao Fang

PreviousBack to directoryNext
Although Cao Fang was only six years old, his roar had a certain effect, because the civil and military ministers who were arguing endlessly suddenly became quiet.

However, the silence did not last long.

"His Royal Highness King Qi!" Cui Lin took the lead to step forward, bowed to Cao Fang and asked: "His Royal Highness King Qi, you are His Majesty's eldest son, please come and make an idea..."

As soon as Cui Lin finished speaking, Wei Zhen and others were speechless. Although King Cao Fang of Qi is His Majesty's eldest son, he is only six years old after all.

Wei Zhen was about to speak, but the six-year-old Cao Fang suddenly said: "Dear ministers, I am still young and do not understand the affairs of the government..." After speaking, Cao Fang paused, but then added: "Father, the emperor

Suffering, I believe that the immediate plan should be to save my father."

"The king of Qi is wise!"

"The king of Qi is wise!"

"I'll wait... let's do it now."

Wei Zhen responded first, and at the same time, in his heart, he also looked at the young King Qi with admiration.

Cui Lin's face was ashen. He never thought that a six-year-old baby would reject his proposal like this.

He originally wanted to continue fighting for it, but now the Wei Dynasty is in crisis.

Even though the Cui family has a certain influence in the Wei Dynasty, he doesn't want to be at this juncture.

I completely broke up with Wei Zhen and others.

After all, Wei is the emperor,

It is still in the hands of Shu Han.

He did not completely fail.

He still has a chance.

As long as Shu Han keeps holding Cao Rui,

Or if Cao Rui has three advantages and two disadvantages, his plan can be implemented.

After all, a country,

It is impossible to live without a monarch for a long time.

As long as Cao Rui cannot come back, he can still make Cao Fang emperor.

Cao Fang is only six years old now, so he naturally cannot govern the country personally.

At that time, Cui Lin thought that with his support and the prestige of the Cui family in the Wei Dynasty, it would not be long before the Cui family could take control of the court.

Now——

Then just wait.

Anyway, Cui Lin doesn’t really believe that Cao Rui can return safely.

Cui Lin and others did not object,

Argument in the main hall,

Finally stopped; next, under the chairmanship of Situ Weizhen,

The ministers discussed a plan to rescue the emperor on the spot.

After some deliberation,

It was unanimously decided to send Shaofu Yang Fu as envoy to Chang'an immediately.

After all, he was the first to propose negotiations with Chang'an.

Yang Fu did not refuse, he accepted the job.

After the court meeting,

Yang Fu simply packed up and hurriedly left Luoyang with his entourage, preparing to go to Chang'an to negotiate with the Han Dynasty.

But——

Not long after Yang Fu and his party left Luoyang,

He met several cavalrymen who were rushing to Luoyang to deliver a message. They were walking in a hurry.

Yang Fu stopped him directly.

Asked: "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"I've seen Mr. Yang!" The primary school leader,

He had met Yang Fu before, and immediately saluted Yang Fu, and then said: "The general is going to Luoyang to deliver a message on the order of the governor of Hongnong County."

"What's the important matter?" Yang Fu asked.

"Go back to Mr. Yang's mansion!" said the principal: "The evening before yesterday,

Fei Yi, the envoy of the Shu Han Dynasty, came to Hongnong.

He said he would go to Luoyang to discuss important matters with me, the great Wei Dynasty..." Before Xiaoxiao finished speaking, Yang Fu's eyes suddenly lit up, even though Xiaoxiao had not made it clear what the Shu Han envoy was going to Luoyang to discuss this time.
But——

Do you still need to ask?

It must be about the emperor.

"The envoy of Shu Han..." Yang Fu asked again: "Where is he now?"

"General Hongnong left the night before yesterday;" the principal said: "If nothing unexpected happens,

Early yesterday morning, the Shu Han envoys should have left Hongnong..."

"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Yang Fu was immediately overjoyed.

I thought to myself: 'In that case, why should I go to Chang'an... Wouldn't it be better to just wait for him in Luoyang?'

Yang Fu immediately decided to return to Luoyang with the primary school student.

"Wei Situ!"

As soon as Yang Fugang returned to Luoyang, he went straight to Wei Zhen's house. As soon as he saw Wei Zhen, he said straight to the point: "The Shu Han sent envoys to Luoyang... It seems that the Shu Han must have come to discuss matters concerning your majesty.



"Yes!" Wei Zhen nodded slightly: "What the young master said is absolutely true."

"It's just...it's just Shu Han..." Wei Zhen frowned inexplicably: "I just don't know what conditions Shu Han will put forward this time..."

When he learned that the Han Dynasty had sent envoys to Luoyang, Wei Zhen's nervous mood eased a little; Chang'an was willing to send envoys, which meant that there was room for maneuver in this matter.

Just——

What conditions would the great man impose before he would release the emperor?

The initiative is now in the hands of the Han Dynasty. They can raise any conditions they want. Who makes the emperor of Wei now in their hands?

......

October 18, 238 AD.

Morning.

Luoyang Imperial Palace.

All the civil and military ministers of Cao Wei gathered in the main hall, and they were all a little nervous.

At this moment, a voice suddenly shouted outside the palace: "The envoys of the Han Dynasty have arrived."

Immediately afterwards, Fei Yi, the envoy of the Han Dynasty, walked into the hall with a spring breeze on his face, which was in sharp contrast to Wei Chen in the hall.

Now that Emperor Cao Wei is a prisoner, all major court affairs in Cao Wei are discussed and decided by officials in the court. However, every time important matters are discussed, the emperor's eldest son Cao Fang will be invited to the scene.

"Foreign Minister Fei Yi, pays homage to His Highness."

Fei Yi stepped forward and bowed slightly to Cao Fang.

"Your envoy is exempt from courtesy!"

After Cao Fang finished speaking, he asked again: "Is my father okay now?"

After all, he was just a child. When he was three years old, he was adopted by Cao Rui and lived in the palace since then. He also knew these days,

His father was fighting abroad and was captured by the Han army.

At this time, when the Han envoy came to Luoyang, he instinctively asked the same question.

"Your Highness, rest assured!" Fei Yi smiled and said, "The Han Dynasty is a country of etiquette. Although we captured the king of your country on the battlefield..." Fei Yi said calmly: "But it did not embarrass him. ...Please rest assured, Your Highness and all of you."

The ministers breathed a long sigh of relief after hearing this.

However, Cao Fang begged again: "Your Majesty, are you willing to let my father return to Luoyang? We will not fight this war."

Cao Fang suddenly talked a lot today, which was completely different from the past. In the past, the courtiers were talking animatedly, but he didn't say a word and just listened quietly.

But today, he kept talking one sentence after another.

This made all the civil and military officials feel a little confused.

But he was a prince, so the ministers had no choice but to let him speak freely.

As soon as Cao Fang finished speaking, Fei Yi still smiled lightly and said: "Of course... the foreign minister came to Luoyang this time to discuss with your country the release of your king."

Release?

Hearing Fei Yi say the word "release", the civil and military officials in the hall were stunned for a moment. For example, Wei Zhen and others were delighted because they had been thinking about how to get the Shu Han to return their emperor for the past two days. .

Now they have taken the initiative to say that the purpose of coming to Luoyang this time is to discuss the matter of release.

Unlike Wei Zhen and others, Sikong Cuilin and others were a little panicked.

What are Shu Han doing?

How do you say just let it go?

It’s as if we are even more anxious than the people of Wei Dynasty.

'If the emperor comes back...' Cui Lin suddenly felt a chill coming down his back.
