Chapter 901 Chaos in Wei State(1/2)

"Vomiting blood? Fainting?"

As soon as the Auxiliary Officer of Literary Defense heard this, he broke into a cold sweat on his forehead.

As an official sent by the imperial court to supervise the palace, the Literary and Defense Auxiliary Officer certainly knew what his position was.

Whether you are guarding, supervising, or even intimidating, it doesn't matter. In the end, you are just a vicious dog of the court.

And a clan is a clan after all, so the surname Cao is naturally more noble than his foreign surname.

 My memorial has just been sent out, and something unexpected happened to King Chen on the back foot.

 If you really want to say that this matter has nothing to do with you, who would believe it?

  When the time comes to force this shitty prince to death, he will definitely blame it on himself.

It's just a matter of moving your head. If you're afraid, your whole family will be severely punished.

At the moment, let alone washing up, he didn't even dress neatly, so he hurriedly followed the servants to see King Chen.

 “What’s going on, Your Highness?”

As soon as the person entered the house, he hurriedly asked.

Rather than saying "how is your highness?" he asked "what's going on" to show that he had no knowledge of his highness's vomiting blood and coma.

It's just that he usually dominates and brings blessings, so everyone in Prince Chen's palace is afraid and disgusted with him.

Moreover, most of the people in the room just bowed their heads and felt sad. Who was in the mood to pay attention to him?

The Auxiliary Officer of Literary Defense squeezed through the crowd gathered in front of Cao Zhi's couch and took a closer look, only to see Cao Zhi lying on the couch with his eyes closed tightly and his face as golden as paper.

 The most important thing is that the chest is still stained with red blood stains.

 Princess Chen, who was closest to her, was standing on the bedside weeping.

 When the Auxiliary Officer of Literary Defense saw this situation, his heart beat like a drum and his hands and feet became cold.

The first time I saluted respectfully to Princess Chen

 “I dare to ask the princess, what happened to King Chen?”

 Princess Chen is Cao Zhi’s second wife.

 His first wife originally came from the Cui family in Qinghe.

But when Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were competing for the throne, Cao Cao thought that Cui's clothes were too gorgeous and violated the frugal decree, so she was sentenced to death.

 Later, Cao Cao ordered the death of Cui Yan, Cui's uncle and the representative of Cui's family in Qinghe.

This is actually a means for Cao Cao to suppress the Hebei aristocratic family.

 Compared to the Cui family of Qinghe, the current Princess Chen can be considered to have an ordinary background.

Normally, she would be a little frightened if the Literary Defense Assistant was so respectful to her.

 At this moment, how could she be in the mood to pay attention to the Literary Defense Assistant?

I saw her shaking her head sadly

“The doctor is checking on me, and I don’t know what the situation is.”

Hearing this, the Auxiliary Officer of Literary Defense had no choice but to suppress his anxious mood.

 Finally waiting for the doctor to finish reading, the Literary Assistant Officer was the first to speak.

 “How is King Chen?”

The medical worker’s face looked a little ugly, and he lowered his voice and replied.

“Prince Chen’s health was not in good condition to begin with. Now he drank too much, causing qi and blood to become disordered, so he vomited blood and fainted..."

The Auxiliary Officer of Literary Defense was moved in his heart and said hurriedly

“Is there something wrong with the wine?”

 He ​​was eager to get rid of his responsibilities, so these words came out of his mouth.

Physician naturally did not dare to guarantee, he just said hesitantly

 “This... villain has not yet seen that King Chen looks like he has been poisoned...”

But Cao San couldn't help but said

"It's absolutely impossible. Feng Jun once said that if the world is judged by literary talent, only King Chen can catch his eye, and the rest are all mediocre."

“Taking the poem given to King Chen by Feng Jun as a gift, how could he possibly do such a thing to King Chen?”

He brought the wine back. If there was something wrong with the wine, he would not be able to escape death.

What's more, the Literary Defense Assistant in front of me suspects that there is something wrong with the wine. What's the difference between that and suspecting that he is a traitor and poisoned King Chen?

 This is a fatal matter.

So he didn’t have any worries anymore.

Literary defense assistants still need to be shameless.

 Having had the idea of ​​mounting the calligraphy, he had naturally read the poem.

Since Thief Feng could give King Chen such a poem that has been passed down for generations, if he insisted that there was something wrong with the wine, he would obviously treat the world as a fool.

 After all, the literati of this era still talk about the style of ancient gentlemen.

 So when Cao San said this, the Literary Defense Assistant looked a little embarrassed and stopped talking.

 “Get out!”

 A faint voice came from nowhere.

 Princess Chen, who was focused on Cao Zhi, shouted "Your Highness!" in surprise and joy.

Everyone looked around quickly and saw that King Chen had woken up at some point.

"Your Highness, how are you..."

The Auxiliary Literary Defense Officer wanted to get closer with concern.

Unexpectedly, Cao Zhi stared at him fiercely, his voice weak but filled with disgust.

 “Get out!”

 “Your Highness…”

“You shameless villain, how dare you talk about the matter between me and Mr. Feng? Get out of here! Don’t taint my eyes!”

 When did the Literary Defense Assistant receive such anger in Prince Chen’s Mansion?

 It was just a sensitive period at this time, so he did not dare to provoke King Chen too much, so he had to force a smile and said

“If Your Highness is in a bad mood, I will not disturb His Highness.”

At the same time as he turned around, he was secretly angry in his heart, just waiting for Cao Zhi's health to improve slightly, let's see how I can give His Majesty a secret report!

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the door, he heard another voice shouting "Your Highness!"

He quickly turned around and saw Cao Zhi straightening up and spitting out a mouthful of blood!

This time scared him out of his wits!

To everyone in Prince Chen's Mansion, Cao Zhi's serious illness may be a sign that the sky is about to fall.

 But for Cao Rui, it was just a quick glance at the content.

 Because for Cao Rui, with the death of the Empress Dowager (ie Bian), the last threat from his close uncle to the emperor also dissipated.

 Not to mention other Cao family members.

 So in the past two years, he has been much tolerant of the Cao family members who were entrusted in various places.

Not only were the kings and princes of the Cao family allowed to send their legitimate sons to the capital, but even Cao Zhi was able to come to the capital for an audience.

 Because of Cao Zhi's repeated memorials before, Cao Rui's move not only showed his humility in accepting advice, but also showed that he valued the kinship of the Cao clan.

This little bit of fame is nothing but a drop in the bucket for the fundamental shakeup caused by the failure of the connection in recent years.

 Compared with Cao Zhi's serious illness, Cao Rui was more concerned about the news about the Shu bandits brought back by the envoy.

In his view, the Shu people forcibly swallowed up Liangzhou with a mere state of land, which was like a snake eating an elephant.

Even if there are people like Zhuge Liang who are good at governing the country, if they can live in peace for three years and rule for ten years, they are already blessed by heaven.

Of course, it would be better if the Shu people suffered from Liangzhou and wasted their national power like the Later Han Dynasty did.

I didn’t expect Feng Thief to be able to stay in Liangzhou for more than half a year...

 Most of the year!

 It only took more than half a year!

Thinking of this, Cao Rui couldn't help but smashed the memorial in his hand to the ground, and said bitterly

 “Feng Thief! He is the most cunning among Shu people!”

 At the same time, he also felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

"Why do the Shu people, with the power of one state, have Zhuge in front of them and Feng Zei in the back? However, given that China is so big, whenever major events happen, they always have to worry about me, and no one can worry for me?"

At this moment when he was upset, his favorite minister Lian Zhao came in holding a memorial and said softly:

“Your Majesty, there is urgent news from Qingzhou.”

When Cao Rui heard this, he felt even more impatient and said impatiently.
To be continued...
