Chapter 121 The nightmare of three horses in the same groove, asking for a monthly ticket)
According to Xiahou Hui's suggestion, Xiahou Mao arranged for some people to get close to Dunwu, and through various methods, he finally got more information about Wei Ba. Dunwu failed to resist the small favors of those people and gave Wei Ba's "secret"
It was revealed bit by bit, and finally it was all gathered in front of Xia Houhui.
Knowing that Wei Ba was indeed as good at arithmetic as she had predicted, Xia Houhui was very satisfied, and Xiahou Mao was also very satisfied. As more and more details came back from Hanzhong, bringing back pieces of news about Wei Ba, Wei Ba
Ba gradually revealed his "true form" in front of them.
Although Hanzhong has announced that Wei Ba is dead, judging from various appearance descriptions, this Wei Ba in Chang'an should be the real Wei Ba. The announcement of his death in Hanzhong should be the result of a compromise between Zhuge Liang and Wei Yan. They don't want to
Hence the civil and military internal strife.
After figuring out the details of Wei Ba, some of Wei Ba's great achievements came into the view of Xiahou Mao and others. These achievements were somewhat distorted due to narration, but the basic skeleton was still clear. When they learned that Wei Ba was in Fangling
After what he did in the battle, Xiahou Mao was both happy and worried. He was happy that Wei Ba was really a treasure, but he was worried that he couldn't use it, even though Wei Ba was a peerless general.
But Xia Houhui's mood was a bit complicated. She now understood why Wei Ba said he didn't want to be an enemy of his father in the first place. With Wei Ba's ability to use troops, it would be impossible for Xiahou Mao to say that he was not tempted at all.
However, what made her even more uneasy was that the people who were defeated by Wei Ba were her future uncle Sima Yi and her future husband Sima Shi.
Unlike others who regarded Sima Yi as a scholar, Xia Houhui knew Sima Yi's abilities very well. As one of Emperor Wen's four friends, Sima Yi, who made great contributions to Emperor Wen's ascension to the throne, was never a pure scholar.
Wei Ba's first battle against Sima Yi made Xia Houhui surprised. Although she still couldn't figure out what the real situation was like, the result was enough to explain everything. Sima Yi could have been recorded in history.
A surprise attack turned into a joke, which was enough to surprise her.
It also made her wary.
However, this vigilance came out of nowhere. Even she herself could not explain the reason for this vigilance. She even felt that she was vigilant against a homeless man like Wei Ba just out of jealousy and because he was better than her future husband.
Better jealousy.
Xia Houhui looked through the information about Wei Ba, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he sighed silently.
"What's wrong?" Princess Qinghe walked in with a raised eyebrow. She happened to see Xia Houhui sighing and asked with concern.
Xia Houhui smiled lightly: "It's nothing. Princess, where do you come from?"
"Hehe, it's nothing." Princess Qinghe sat down next to Xia Houhui, took a look at the information on the case, and couldn't help laughing: "This Wei Ba is really useful. If nothing else, after he comes,
At least your uncle stopped fooling around with those foxy people and finally did something serious."
"Really?" Xia Houhui covered his lips and chuckled, "In my opinion, it was the princess who came that made him calm down."
"You girl, are you here to make fun of your elders?" Princess Qinghe pretended to be angry. After a moment, she said regretfully: "It's a pity that his father is Wei Yan. Otherwise, he could really be a good helper for your uncle. Now.
, I can only keep him as a guest."
Xia Houhui asked in surprise: "Why, the princess still wants him to lead the army?"
"It would be a pity for such a good general not to lead troops." Princess Qinghe looked at Xia Houhui's face and suddenly laughed: "I see, Yuanrong, you are jealous of him. He defeated the hussar general
, and Master Sima, you are jealous."
"Princess, I don't have one." Xia Houhui blushed, turned around, and pouted to cover up.
Princess Qinghe took Xia Houhui's hand, stroked it gently, and lowered her voice and said: "Yuanrong, it's not that I don't like them father and son, but there is a reason for it. From my heart, I am actually very opposed to you.
Marry into the Sima family."
Xia Houhui's heart moved: "Why?"
Princess Qinghe stopped smiling and her face became very serious. "Do you know why His Majesty put all four ministers who care about life aside?"
Xia Houhui's eyes narrowed, and he suddenly felt a little nervous. "Because... Sima?"
Princess Qinghe nodded.
"Why?" Xia Houhui asked this question again. Of the four ministers who care about life, two are from the Cao clan and two are ministers with foreign surnames. According to the rules passed down by Emperor Wen, the one who deserves the most attention should be Cao Zhen.
, Cao Xiu’s two clans are the right ones. Even if the minister is a foreign surname, he should not be Sima, at least he should not be just Sima.
"When Emperor Wu was alive, he once had a dream." Princess Qinghe lowered her voice subconsciously. Even though she knew there would be no outsiders around her, she still lowered her voice to almost a whisper. She leaned against Xia Hou
Xiahou Hui muttered something in Hui's ear. Xia Houhui's eyes suddenly widened. He instinctively took half a step back and looked at Princess Qinghe in horror: "Three horses in the same trough? No, it's impossible.
"
Princess Qinghe looked into Xia Houhui's eyes expressionlessly: "Do you not believe me, or do you not believe Emperor Wu?"
"I..." Xia Houhui was speechless. A chill ran through her heart, and she suddenly understood all the things that she couldn't figure out at first.
Emperor Wen Cao Pi's success in the fight for the throne was due to his four friends. Among the four friends, Chen Qun was born in the Yingchuan family. He had always been engaged in internal affairs and had never been involved in military affairs, so it is understandable that he did not lead troops. The other three
Among people, Sima Yi followed Emperor Wu very early on in the southern and northern wars. His strategic skills were only matched by Liu Ye, Jiang Ji and others. In the heart of Emperor Wen, Sima Yi, who was born in Sima, Wen County, was also the most highly regarded.
However, after Emperor Wen ascended the throne, Wu Zhi and Zhu Shuo both commanded heavy troops, but Sima Yi never had military power. If her father Xia Houshang hadn't died suddenly of illness, and there was really no one she could trust, Sima Yi would have remained a civil servant.
.
Even so, before the death of Emperor Wen, Sima Yi had never personally led an army in battle. It was not until His Majesty ascended the throne today that the State of Wu took advantage of Wei Youguo's mourning and led troops to attack. Sima Yi did not appear on the battlefield as a general for the first time.
Xia Houhui could understand His Majesty's current actions, but Xia Houhui had always had doubts about Emperor Wen's arrangements. Only today did she know that this was originally a dream of Emperor Wu, and that the Cao family had always had a relationship with Sima Yi's family.
A strong vigilance beyond the ordinary scope.
Emperor Wen knew about this dream, and of course His Majesty also knew about it. Even Princess Qinghe knew about it, but did his father Xia Houshang know about it? If he knew, why did he betroth himself to Master Sima?
Terrible thoughts rushed through Xia Houhui's mind, setting off waves of monstrous waves, making her shudder.
"Princess, you...are you lying to me?" Xia Houhui's face turned pale and his voice was trembling.
Princess Qinghe sighed and clapped Xia Houhui's hand: "Silly boy, do I dare to joke with you about Emperor Wu?"
Of course Xia Houhui knew that Princess Qinghe would not be so boring, she just didn't want to believe her ears. Her father Xia Houshang betrothed her to Master Sima. It was obviously not as simple as a marriage, but a secret chess game. In order to be
The stability of the Cao family came at the cost of her lifelong happiness.
She couldn't believe that her father, who loved her so much, would do such a thing, but she knew very well that if her father knew about Emperor Wu's dream of three horses in the same boat, he would definitely do this.
Her sky suddenly fell apart, as if she had been abandoned by her father, even more pitiful than Wei Ba. Wei Ba was forced to flee by others, but his father Wei Yan did not abandon him, but she was loved by her.
My father regarded it as a tool and threw it away lightly.
Princess Qinghe looked at Xia Houhui's painful eyes and felt a little regretful for a moment. She put her arms around Xia Houhui's shoulders, held her in her arms, and said softly: "My child, I know you can't believe it, but what's the point?
Which women are not like this? How many of them can marry the one they love? This world belongs to men. We women are just pawns in their hands. How can we make our own decisions? Accept your fate, if you want to cry
, just cry in my arms, and after crying, hide this matter in your heart. I know you are a smart child and will know what to do."
Xia Houhui couldn't bear it anymore, tears burst out of his eyes, he threw himself into Princess Qinghe's arms and sobbed, and then burst into tears.
…
In the front hall, Wei Ba and Xia Houmao were chatting with eyebrows dancing. Today, he and Xia Houmao talked about Hetu Luoshu. Taoist knowledge comes from two kinds of knowledge, one is "Laozi's Five Thousand Words" and "The Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic"
》, this is knowledge in theory, that is, philosophy. One is the knowledge of Yin and Yang, such as the Book of Changes, Shushu and so on. The Book of Changes in the Han Dynasty is also called the Book of Changes in Xiangshu. The main content is Xiang, which refers to the hexagrams.
Xiang, first of all, is numbers, that is, arithmetic numbers, that is, the arrangements and combinations of various numbers. Hetu Luoshu belongs to the last category, the content of arithmetic numbers.
Xiahou Mao was no stranger to these, but he heard something new from Wei Ba's mouth. Wei Ba took out a big river map with sixty-four numbers, which was comparable to the river map Xiahou Mao knew.
Much more complicated.
Of course, Wei Ba didn't just talk about mathematics. He stuffed the sixty-four hexagrams of Zhouyi into it. Of course, with his level, he would definitely not be able to do this. This was drawn up by Prime Minister Zhuge himself, and it is not excluded.
It also contains his own wisdom.
Xia Houmao was stunned by Wei Ba's talk. He was so happy that he scratched his head and head. He didn't have the solemnity of General Anxi and the Governor of Guanzhong. But unfortunately, with his level, he couldn't understand this picture that made him dizzy at first sight.
"This... picture, is it really that magical?"
"Of course." Wei Ba rubbed his palms, feeling a little nervous. After more than a month of hard work, he was finally going to send the first signal to those who were anxiously waiting for his news. Don't let Xiahou Mao look at it.
If there is a flaw, otherwise there will be nothing to do next. He has extraordinary abilities. If he is under house arrest and cannot get out, even if he finds out the most confidential information, what will happen?
It will only be useful if the news is sent out and delivered to the Prime Minister.
And these pictures, which look like the sixty-four hexagrams of the I Ching, are actually a code table that contains information.
This is of course his own creation.
"General, this picture is very complicated and involves a lot of deductions. I am incompetent and try my best, but I can't understand all the secrets. If the general is interested, you might as well ask some trusted experts to come and take a look. Can they see some secrets from it?"
