Chapter 88 Different people receive different treatment
He Yan thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, Madam, I will never drink to excess tonight. I also know that Uncle Zhao today is not as good as before, so I will definitely be more cautious.
I will also take advantage of the dinner party to find an opportunity to ask Uncle Zhao to promote me to another official position. Those friends who had the banquet with me last night also told me during the banquet last night,
Let me use Zhaobo's relationship to promote them to another official position. After all, Zhaobo can now have the final say in the Wei Dynasty than before. In the past, there was an old thief Sima who was in the way.
Now in the great Wei Dynasty, Uncle Zhao has the final say, and he can easily promote me and a few of my friends to a higher level!"
Princess Jinxiang said worriedly, "Husband, you haven't made any achievements since you put down the rebellion of the Sima family in January. You just spend most of your time enjoying yourself in the house. And my husband is still at the time when the Sima family is about to decide.
He also had the idea of betraying Sima Yi. Although no one knew about it, Uncle Zhao had the school affairs office in his hands, and the people in it were not vegetarians. Their noses were sharper than those of hunting dogs.
Now they only listen to Zhaobo's orders, but regardless of whether you, husband, are Zhaobo's good friend or not, maybe your husband's previous intention to betray Sima Yi has been known to them.
I’ve reported it to Uncle Zhao, husband, you’d better be more cautious and don’t rely on your relationship with Uncle Zhao to ask for an official position anymore!”
In fact, even if the people in the school affairs office did not find out about this matter, Cao Shuang still knew what kind of person He Yan was based on the memory of his previous life. After all, in the original trajectory, He Yan was deceived by Sima Yi's oath of Luoshui.
No resistance,
When he was taken back to Luoyang Mansion and temporarily detained, he volunteered to confess all the crimes of Cao Shuang and others to Sima Yi.
Remove yourself from the crimes committed by Cao Shuang and others, gain the trust of the Sima clan, and even be able to get promoted by "traitoring friends" and gain a place in the new era that belongs to the Sima clan.
He continued to make a fortune, but in the end Sima Yi included him when he exterminated the clan, and the gang members were sold to others for the money. Fortunately, the princess of Jinxiang and her son He Jun, born to He Yan, can be regarded as authentic big brothers.
A member of the Wei royal family,
It is not comparable to Cao Shuang, an "outsider" who does not have the Cao family's blood in his body. Moreover, the orphan and widowed mother left by He Yan is not a threat to his Sima family's plan.
There's nothing wrong with keeping them. If they were all rashly taken to Beimang Mountain and slaughtered, it would arouse the fear of many people, and they would also be accused of killing the clan without permission.
It is a pity that in the original trajectory, even if He Yan turned around and joined Sima Yi, he could not escape death.
And the lives of the orphans and widows he left behind were not exchanged for his own life by betraying Cao Shuang and others, but they were saved by relying on the aura of the Wei clan!
It is impossible for such a "fool on the wall" Cao Shuang to continue to use him as before. As for asking for higher official positions from him to harm the people and officials in the DPRK, it is even more impossible.
He Yan said calmly: "The reason I wanted to do this at that time was to save the lives of our family. This, after all, is a long-lasting love! I believe that based on my relationship with Cao Zhaobo, Cao Zhaobo knew about this.
You will also understand the critical situation I was in at that time. If it was not absolutely necessary, I would not want to betray Cao Zhaobo and the others.
Now I want to get a higher official position, and Uncle Zhao will definitely agree if he is happy tonight. After all, I am his, and he will still use mine in the future!"
Princess Jinxiang said: "Husband, since you are determined to find a suitable opportunity to ask Uncle Zhao for a higher official position during tonight's dinner, I can't persuade you anymore.
I just hope that your husband will be more cautious during the dinner, think more about me, Jun'er and other wives, concubines and children who are still in the house, and stop doing whatever you want!"
He Yan said impatiently: "I know, I will think twice before doing anything after the dinner. I'm going out.
If you miss the dinner time, it would be disrespectful to Uncle Zhao!"
Princess Jinxiang stood upright, with her hands clasped together, her right hand on top, placed on her chest, she leaned slightly forward about 20 degrees, moved her hands slightly, bent her knees slightly and saluted: "I would like to send you my husband!"
At Cao Shuang's house, some of the courtiers who came early had already finished delivering gifts and found their seats in the banquet hall. They knelt down in front of the table and chatted casually with familiar colleagues next to them, waiting for the banquet to begin.
Guanqiu Jian, Wen Qin, and Le Fang all arrived early and sat down at the front of the hall, enjoying the coolness of the hall.
After He Yan helped Princess Jinxiang gently smooth the wrinkles on his clothes, He Yan listened to the woman Princess Jinxiang talk at length. It was time to go out now.
Then he left unhappy, not wanting to listen to Princess Jinxiang's nagging anymore. Although he could have a cold war with Princess Jinxiang,
But he couldn't hit her. After all, the top person in the Wei Dynasty was still named Cao. The Sima family did not follow the original path and the Sima family was promoted. The Cao family's status in the Wei Dynasty gradually declined.
In the end, even the emperor of Cao Wei, Cao Mao, was killed by Jia Chong under the orders of Cheng Ji. He was only 20 years old (a false age). After his death, he was deposed as a commoner and buried in the northwest of Luoyang. Unfortunately, such a thing is impossible to happen in this life.
!
After He Yan left, Princess Jinxiang said to herself in the hall: "Oh, my husband still doesn't understand the dangerous situation in the DPRK as before. He still can't understand Cao Zhaobo's thoughts.
I thought Cao Zhaobo would treat him as before, but fortunately it is Cao Zhaobo who is in this position now, not Sima Yi.
The family will not be destroyed because of my husband's nonsense. Let him hit a wall so that he can know that he is not the material to be a high-ranking official.
After that, he can be an idle official with peace of mind and live in drunkenness in his own house all day long, which is better than being tricked by the officials in the court who had a grudge against him in the past and bringing down the whole family."
When He Yan's carriage arrived at the door of Cao Zhaobo's mansion, Cao Zhaobo did not personally greet him as he expected. He only sent a butler to greet him and lead him into the mansion. "He Shangshu, my master is already waiting for you to take your seat in the banquet hall. Please," he said.
!”
He Yan said: "Steward, why didn't Uncle Zhao go out in person to welcome me into the house for the banquet? In the past, every time he came to Uncle Zhao's house, he personally welcomed me into the house. When he went to my house, I also left the house in person.
Welcome!"
The housekeeper said calmly: "He consort, my master has invited so many officials from the DPRK and China to a banquet tonight. Many people have already arrived.
My master is naturally receiving these people personally in the hall at this moment, and when the consort arrives in the hall, he will also be received by my master in person!"
The housekeeper thought, you have tricked my master so many times, and you still want to welcome my master in person. You are dreaming! The three generals Guanqiu Jian, Wen Qin, and Le Fang were personally welcomed into the house by my master.
That means they have great merit, but what about you? But they have no great merit!
