"Although Zijian's words are reasonable, there are still some inappropriate points.”
As soon as Cao Cao said this, the opposing civil and military officials revealed a victorious look. Everyone's eyes were filled with joy. Xun Yu's eyes beside Cao Zhi also softened a little.
No matter what his son was like, the father that he valued was still a little more reliable.
Cao Zhi took in everyone's performance, but he was not moved at all.
After Xun Yu bowed and thanked Cao Cao, he returned to his seat. However, Cao Zhi did not move at all and remained standing in the court.
Cao Cao saw that Cao Zhi did not retreat even after he rejected his suggestion. He frowned and said angrily,"Could it be that Zi Jian has some objections to the father's decision?”
The civil and military officials below the stage were all shocked when they saw Cao Cao's appearance.
This was the second time Cao Zhi had contradicted Cao Cao! Previously, it was fortunate that Cao Cao didn't care and focused on learning his lesson. However, this time, everyone could hear from Cao Cao's tone that he was truly angry.
Yang Xiu, who was below the stage, was even more frightened when he saw Cao Cao getting angry at Cao Zhi!
My young master! Why are you still courting death! If you want to reject it, then reject it. Why must you be so stubborn?
It's over, it's all over.
In these short tens of seconds, Yang Xiu had already imagined a large-scale drama where Cao Zhi was demoted and lost his position as the crown prince, and his future was bleak. His heart was extremely sad.
Only Cao Pi, who was sitting in the corner, was happy to see Cao Cao angry. Sima Yi, who was beside him, also glanced at Cao Zhi, but he did not show any expression.
Cao Zhi ignored them and continued to lower his head. He braced himself and said,"Your son requests that father give your son a piece of military land to use for the reform of the garrison system. Your son is willing to personally carry out the garrison policy on the land that father has allocated.”
Hearing Cao Zhi's words, Cao Cao's anger rose. He was really a little angry, but he still suppressed his tone and said sternly,"There are still many things that you should learn. You should prioritize military strategy and politics. Farming is something that incompetent people do.”
Cao Zhi took another step forward and said firmly,"Your son has heard that there is nothing in the world that cannot be learned. Farming was the same. The discussion of military strategy and politics is nothing more than economic development. The economic development depends on the people, and the people depend on the fields. Therefore, the matter of your son opening up wasteland is also a way to study knowledge and politics.”
Hearing Cao Zhi's words, everyone below the stage shook their heads and looked at Cao Zhi with a look of disapproval.
Especially Cao Pi, who was so happy that he almost laughed out loud.
Cao Zhi really didn't know what was good for him! To be so stubborn and make Cao Cao unhappy again and again, was there something wrong with such a person's brain?
After Cao Zhi said this, the faces of Ding Yi and Ding He, who were seated in the hall, turned cold. Cao Zhi's words were basically dancing on the tip of a knife. As Cao Zhi's closest friends, how could they not be shocked? If Cao Cao were to get angry and vent his anger on them, their ending would be unimaginable.
Especially Yang Xiu, as the person who had the most frequent contact with Cao Zhi, he was also getting more and more troubled. Why did Young Master suddenly become so suicidal! He could not understand.
But luckily, Cao Cao actually agreed to Cao Zhi's request and allowed him to try the reform of the wasteland. He even gave him the Si Province.
Hearing Cao Cao's decision, everyone was shocked. They were all speculating in their hearts. Was Cao Zhi's position in Cao Cao's heart already so high? After contradicting him one after another, he actually agreed to Cao Zhi's suggestion?
However, when they heard that he was going to hand over the Si Province, they started to gloat. After all, they knew that the Si Province was very close to Luoyang, so it had already been destroyed by Dong Zhuo. Now, it was a place where birds didn't even shit. Cao Cao wanted him to go to the Si Province, so it was obvious that he wanted to quietly dispel this idea.
As expected, the Prime Minister is still wiser! Everyone thought to themselves.
However, contrary to everyone's expectations, Cao Zhi actually accepted it happily! Even Cao Cao was suspicious when he heard this, but Cao Zhi didn't care at all. What Si Province and Luoyang? As long as it wasn't the Wilderness, it was a piece of land! Cao Zhi did not care about being in the middle of nowhere. No matter what, Luoyang used to be the capital, the economic center of the pilgrimage of all countries. Even if it had declined, its geographical importance had not changed at all. It would not be too difficult for it to rise again.
Thus, Cao Zhi gladly accepted the order and returned to his seat.
Cao Zhi did not listen to the contents of the meeting seriously. He was thinking about the land reform. After the meeting ended, he immediately returned to the main camp and began to gather some troops to set off for Luoyang.
He also brought Yang Xiu, Ding Yi, and Ding Rong along. Cao Zhi was Men Qing 'er, and these three were Cao Zhi's die-hard followers. Moreover, they were talented. If they were to stay by his side or if they were to go to Luoyang, they would definitely be of great use.
When these three heard that they were going to follow Cao Zhi to Luoyang, they all shook their heads and hid. What a joke. As the young master of the Cao family and one of the candidates for the future heir, why didn't he take advantage of the fact that he was favored to stay by Cao Cao's side and try his best to increase his favorability? Why did he go to that godforsaken place in Si Province to farm and carry out reforms?
In the eyes of the three of them, it was better to choose a day when the moon was full and flowers were blooming. It was better than this thankless task.
Especially after Cao Cao rejected this idea, Cao Zhi insisted on doing it. Every time they thought of this, the three of them felt helpless.
Therefore, in the beginning, the three of them were unusually determined. No! We won't go!
However, in reality, they couldn't resist Cao Zhi's patient guidance. In addition, they were indeed Cao Zhi's diehard fans. Therefore, although they were not very willing, they all followed him in the end.
