Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Cao Zhi took the initiative to interrupt. "Mr. Zhong, among the old ministers, the Taifu is not the longest, but his energy is the best. He has a son in his old age, comparable to Shulianghe. Having these old ministers to assist in the administration is a blessing for the Great Wei and the blessing for Your Majesty."

The emperor sighed, "It's a pity that Situ is not in good health, so the Taiwei is also a little ill and cannot go to court. Time is not forgiving others, and the elders left by Emperor Wu will eventually abandon me one by one. Even if I am the emperor, I will have no choice but to be the destiny." He sighed several times and looked lonely.

Zhong Yu lowered his eyebrows, lowered his eyes, and was silent for a moment. "Your Majesty, the Taiwei has followed Emperor Wu to the west many times and has a deep understanding of the situation in Guanzhong. If Your Majesty can ask the Taiwei, you will definitely gain something."

Cao Zhi said, "What the Minister said is very true, but the Grand Marshal was just attacked and injured, so it should not be disturbed."

The emperor also said: "After the Taiwei returned to the capital, have he ever visited the Taifu?"

Zhong Yu's eyes flashed slightly. "I am on duty in the palace and do not know what is happening outside the city. I dare not speak nonsense. Rong me will understand it and reply." He paused and said, "King Yongqiu also followed Emperor Wu to fight east and west, Guanzhong to fight Ma Chao, and Hanzhong to fight Zhang Lu, and I know very well. In the 24th year of Jian'an, Guan Yu invaded Xiangfan, and Emperor Wu also had high hopes for King Yongqiu. With such a minister on his side, why should Your Majesty ask for help from others?"

The emperor's face looked even more ugly, and he couldn't hold a smile on his face. This was a blatant mockery of him.

"If Your Majesty has nothing to do, I will take the leave first." Zhong Yu bowed and took a tribute, took two steps back, and turned around and left. He walked without any haste, his body was upright, and his hands seemed to be holding a tablet, as if he was going to court, with a serious expression and inviolable expression.

The emperor looked at Zhong Yu's departure from the corner of his eyes, his expression gradually slowed down, and he sighed.

Cao Zhi's face turned red and white. The dissatisfaction of the ministers with the court came from two aspects: one was the emperor's change to the old system of Emperor Wen, and the other was the hostility towards him. When he was fighting for the legitimate legacy, the ministers in the court today were either supporters of Emperor Wen or neutral factions, and there were almost no one who supported him. He was valued by the emperor and almost touched everyone's nerves.

"His Majesty……"

The emperor waved his hand. "Uncle Emperor, go and see the Taiwei. However, don't expect the Taiwei to do much effort. The war in Guanzhong depends on whether the general can handle it properly. Do you think you should transfer the right general Zhang He to reinforce and help the general with one arm?"

Cao Zhi thought of Cao Miao's advice and hesitated for a moment. The war in Guanzhong is no longer just about Guanzhong, not just about General Cao Zhen, but about the stability of the court and the face of the emperor. In the case of Cao Xiu's defeat, if Cao Zhen makes another mistake, the ministers will attack him.

However, Cao Miao's idea also makes sense. The victory or defeat in Guanzhong is just a temporary gain or loss. As long as the emperor can be stable, it will not affect the overall situation. Stabilizing Jingxiang and allowing the emperor like Wuqiu Jian to grow up with a confidant, the meaning is more profound.

"Does Your Majesty think the general can take on this important task?"

"General... is not in good health." The emperor sighed, and was angry. He was angry that Cao Shuang did not know the general, but knew that the inner alchemy technique had the effect of health preservation, but because he could not bear to bow his head to ask for help. He was also angry that Cao Miao used the magic technique to cherish it himself and had angered with Cao Shuang.

He also knew the significance of Zhang He staying in Jingxiang to the overall situation, but what if Cao Zhen fell ill and led to the defeat of Guanzhong?

Cao Zhi said: "He can't make decisions about marriage, his parents' orders, and the matchmaker's words."
