Dawei Fanghua

It had been cloudy for two days, and the rain did not fall. Instead, a strong wind blew up all night, blowing away the clouds.

Before the sun came out, the light was still a little hazy, but it was obvious that it was a good day today.So Queen Mother Guo came to Fanglin Garden early in the morning.While she was waiting for breakfast, a eunuch was beside her, telling her about recent events in Luoyang.

Queen Mother Guo was in her 30s, but she hardly left the palace. Everything that happened outside was relayed to her by others.

Although she is a bit older, her skin is well maintained.Had it not been for her extraordinary appearance, Emperor Wen Cao Pi would not have been able to snatch her back from Xiliang. Then Emperor Wen's son Cao Rui fell in love with her, and later made her queen despite the rebellion of the Xiliang Guo family.Emperors of both Cao and Wei dynasties confirmed her beauty.

Fortunately, this eunuch can describe everything vividly, with some expressions and movements, so his speech is always more interesting. This is also a skill for eating.Empress Dowager Guo liked to listen to this eunuch the most, and was not willing to listen to others.

What the eunuch said at first was indeed meaningless, even though he was already working very hard, but Queen Mother Guo still covered her mouth with Bai Shengsheng's delicate hands and quietly yawned.Maybe it's because I woke up too early.

When the eunuchs talked about the Yongning Palace in the southwest and the plundering of the late emperor's wives by the school affairs office, Queen Mother Guo became slightly interested.But she didn't care much, this kind of thing wasn't unusual, and there was nothing she could do about it.

But the eunuch had noticed some interest in the Queen Mother, so he explained the matter in more detail, as if he had witnessed the process with his own eyes.

"The new school secretary said that their life in Yongning Palace is at least clean and comfortable. The country has raised them until they are old because of their legal royal status. You take them out to do tricks, and they will soon become old and yellow. Who will take care of them? Isn't it getting worse as time goes by?" The eunuch held his head high and said in an imitated tone, but his voice was sharper and still lacked that temperament.

When Queen Mother Guo heard this, she raised her eyebrows slightly. Many thoughts and emotions came to her, but she just said casually: "He really treats women as human beings."

When the eunuch heard that Queen Mother Guo finally responded, he hurriedly echoed: "Is the Queen Mother right?"

But Queen Mother Guo did not continue speaking. She just said something smoothly without thinking too much.

After Queen Mother Guo arrived in Luoyang, she was actually very favored, and she also benefited the Guo clan.But she still knew that women were just playthings, tools for sexual discharge, and obedient animals for "gentlemen", not to mention that women could actually have their own demands and wishes.

Just like Emperor Ming's original empress, Empress Mao, she was a little jealous because she was not invited to visit the park, so she asked Emperor Ming, "Did you enjoy your visit yesterday?"Queen Mao was killed.

The queen who inquired a little bit about something and had some feelings of her own was immediately killed, let alone an ordinary woman.As long as you are slightly disobedient and disobedient, just go and die.

The place where we visited the garden at that time was Fanglin Garden.When Queen Mother Guo is here, it is easy to think of those past events.

She suddenly felt that this school official might be a different person, so she couldn't help but said in a casual tone: "When you ask him to come to court, he will come to court."

The eunuch confirmed: "Is the Queen Mother referring to the new school affairs order?"

Empress Dowager Guo nodded and said: "Yes." She thought for a moment and then said softly, "Don't go and deliver the decree yourself. If you meet any minister in the court who is more talkative, ask him to take the message."

The eunuch said: "Here."

...It is indeed a sunny day today, the sun is shining brightly.

In the afternoon, Master Sima came to Tingwei Mansion in person and was welcomed to the attic by Gao Rou.After the attendants served the tea, Gao Rou asked them to go down.

Master Sima has always been a person who speaks without hesitation, and he quickly said calmly: "Yin Mo's crime is so heinous that Ming Gong can kill the three clans and wipe out his whole family."

Gao Ju said: "I arrested Yin Mo's family members overnight. The family members of this kind of person will easily escape if they don't take action."

Master Sima nodded and said: "How long has Qin Zhongming been in office? He actually got rid of Yin Mo like this, which is indeed a bit unexpected." Gao Rou pondered for a moment and said: "I thought Qin Zhongming had thought of something. , I have to convince the general first. Otherwise, he wouldn’t dare to go so far.”

He then looked a little complicated, his face was uncertain, and he felt a little aggrieved, "Yesterday, he came to Tingwei's Mansion to bargain with me. I have just come back to it now. Even if he didn't agree to his conditions, he would still do those things. . But I’m willing to admit defeat, forget it, I won’t lose much if I promise him.”

"That makes sense." Master Sima said.

Gao Rou asked again: "Has Ziyuan warned Qin Zhongming that after taking office as a school official, he should put the country first and use his talents to benefit the overall situation?"

Master Sima immediately replied: "I told you, just say it casually."

Gao Judao: "He said he did these things because he listened to Ziyuan's warning. I don't know if he is telling the truth, but that's what he said anyway."

Master Sima immediately felt that he was greatly respected. Although it may be a compliment as Gao Rou said, this feeling is really good, just like the weather today, which makes people happy and clear.

Although Sima Shi's status in the court was considered very respected, the princesses mainly respected his father Sima Yi's reputation, achievements and status. As the eldest son, Sima Shi would naturally benefit from this.

However, the respect given by Qin Zhongming was different. He remembered Sima Shi's casual words, not for anyone's sake.Moreover, Qin Liang is a young man. It is impossible for a young man to be as sophisticated as an old minister. Most of the time, his attitude is more sincere.If he was really worldly, he should express his compliments openly instead of saying nice things behind people's backs.

Gao Rou's voice said: "This young man is quite interesting. He can come up with ideas and do impressive things wherever he goes. Even yesterday morning, I really didn't expect that he could kill Yin Mo directly. "

Sima Shidao: "Ming Gong's evaluation of Qin Zhongming is very pertinent. This person does not stick to conventions and his acting style is different from ordinary scholars. At first, his brother was falsely accused and imprisoned, but his method was different from ordinary people. He made something out of nothing and found something out of nothing. The strategy in the Battle of Shaopi was also the opposite."

Gao Rou pondered: "What is his relationship with Shuang Mansion? How can he easily convince the general?"

Master Sima said: "He shouldn't be trusted very much, otherwise he wouldn't go to the school affairs office. We don't have to keep an eye on his identity as a subordinate of Shuangfu. I have tested him and tried to find a way to make him betray the general. This is a great opportunity. thing."

Gao Rou nodded and said: "Zi Yuan's words make sense. It's best this way. Otherwise, if this person becomes Shuang's knife in the school affairs office, he might be even more difficult to deal with than Yin Mo."

Master Sima thought for a while and said, "Probably not. At first, famous people in Luoyang commented on him, saying that he was 'upright and straightforward, and he understood the righteousness'. The evaluation may be a bit biased, but it is unlikely that he would be willing to do evil things for Shuang Mansion. His identity is also very different from someone like Yin Mo, so he must be measured. He has a greater future, and there is no need to offend all the nobles of the dynasty. "

Gao Rou continued: "One more thing. I heard this morning that the Queen Mother wants Qin Zhongming to attend the court. The Queen Mother also wants to win over the school affairs office?"

Master Sima smiled and said, "Queen Mother Guo is fine."

Emperor Cao Fang was not born to Queen Mother Guo. Everyone respected her and recognized some of her powers because they thought she was a good person and gave her face.Although the empress was canonized by the late emperor, the empress dowager was the one everyone discussed to rectify her name. After all, Cao Fang's words didn't count.Given Queen Mother Guo's always sensible nature and her situation, it is indeed impossible to win over powerful people.But she just likes whoever she likes and wants to have a few words with, so everyone doesn't bother to care.

Sure enough, Gao Rou immediately said: "That's true."

Master Sima said: "Qin Zhongming is not a fool. What's the use of him working for the Queen Mother Guo? It's better to continue working for the general. He is quite useful. Let's think of something to win him over."

He paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "It can also prevent him from continuing to do secret things for Shuangfu if he is forced to do so. The School Affairs Office cannot ignore it, it is always something that is like a thorn in the back."

Gao Rou immediately nodded in agreement.
