I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Chapter 317 The Chief Assistant of the Cabinet Enters the Palace Late at Night

"If I'm not wrong, Maoer, you should have the same idea, and put Weifu under house arrest, right?"

Cao Cao squinted his eyes and looked at Cao Mao.

Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Cao Ren and other generals are still leading the army at this moment.

If Cao Mao killed Cao Cao, I'm afraid it would immediately lead to a major rebellion within the jurisdiction of the court.

And he himself will bear the infamy of patricide!
Therefore, in Cao Cao's view, the most appropriate course of action for Cao Mao is to call Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun and others back to Xudu in his own name.

After everything settles down, put yourself under house arrest.

However, after hearing his words, Cao Mao laughed dumbfoundedly, shook his head and said,
"How could I put my father under house arrest?"

Cao Cao fixed his eyes, frowned and said,
"What do you mean by that?"

"After this time, if the father wants to continue to be the prime minister, the child will naturally not object."

Cao Cao was startled, and looked at Cao Mao suspiciously, as if he couldn't believe his ears.

"Back then, Mr. Xu Shao commented on his father, saying that father, you are a capable minister who governs the world, and a traitor in troubled times."

"Today's father can create a huge foundation, which is enough to prove his ability."

"It would be a waste of father's talent if he were to be confined in the deep courtyard just like that."

"So I plan to let my father continue to lead the court, but compared to before, there will naturally be small changes."

Cao Mao said slowly.

Cao Cao asked in a deep voice, "What changes?"

"The imperial court will reshuffle the cabinet, and all affairs of the court will be discussed by members of the cabinet."

"Father no longer holds military power, but in exchange, father can serve as the chief assistant of the cabinet and have the right to vote."

cabinet.

The chief minister of the cabinet.

Ticket imitation rights.

These fresh words, spoken from Cao Mao's mouth, made Cao Cao stunned for a while, and couldn't help asking,

"What does it mean to vote for power? How will cabinet members be selected?"

"Plainly speaking, the right to vote is the power to make the final decision."

Cao Mao laughed,

"As for the selection of cabinet members, for the time being, I will decide who can serve in the cabinet."

After the efforts of several generations of emperors, the Ming Dynasty finally formed a complete cabinet government affairs system, which can be called perfect in terms of power balance.

Because of this, Cao Mao intends to implement the cabinet system.

After Cao Cao heard this, his face was a little cloudy and uncertain.

According to Cao Mao, the cabinet is the highest authority of the imperial court.

And Cao Mao, who has the ability to select cabinet members, is undoubtedly the most powerful person, and the emperor Liu Xie has completely become a puppet.

If you agree, join the cabinet and become the chief assistant with the final decision-making power.

Although he still has to be checked and balanced by Cao Mao, it is much better than being under house arrest.

Just when Cao Cao was hesitating, he saw Cao Mao chuckled, leaned forward and said softly,

"The child is fighting in the south and the north, and the father is in the rear. If we work together, can't we achieve something great?"

This sentence was like enlightenment, and Cao Cao suddenly realized it instantly.

Yes.

What it comes down to.

Cao Mao is still his own son.

Since he still thinks about the relationship between father and son and is unwilling to murder himself, why can't he live in peace with him?
In the future, if Cao Mao really stands on his own in place of the Han Dynasty, he can also become the Supreme Emperor himself!

After thinking it through, Cao Cao sighed slightly,
"Mao'er is so kind, how can a father refuse you?"

Hearing his answer, Cao Mao also secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Not as a last resort.

I still don't want to completely abolish my father.

After all, his father Cao Cao's ability is there, and his counselors and generals are like clouds.

As long as my father is willing to help me, those counselors and generals will naturally be my own!

"But before that, Mao'er, you have to promise one thing for your father."

"Father said so."

"Don't make things difficult for Zixiu and Zihuan, they are your brothers after all!"

Cao Cao looked at Cao Mao, even with a hint of pleading.

Tiger poison does not eat children.

Although Cao Cao was suspicious and suspicious, in his heart, he still loved his sons very much.

Otherwise, he wouldn't just put Cao Mao under house arrest.

"Father, don't worry, elder brother and second elder brother are my brothers and sisters, and I won't make things difficult for them."

Cao Mao comforted lightly.

Although Cao Ang and Cao Pi are considered talented, as long as Cao Mao brings all the power of the Cao family under control, they will not be afraid of making waves.

"That's good."

Cao Cao sighed with relief, then took out a few letters from his sleeve and handed them to Cao Mao.

"These letters have my seal on them, and you can send them to your uncles quickly."

"As long as they receive the letter, they will lead their troops back to Xudu and hand over the military power to you."

Cao Mao took the letter and bowed to Cao Cao,

"Thank you father!"

"What's there to be thankful for? After all, you are the father's son! I want to see what kind of achievements you can achieve!"

After letting go of the burden in his heart, Cao Cao relaxed a lot, laughed and patted Cao Mao on the shoulder.

"Father, please rest assured! The child will definitely not let you down!"

Cao Mao said in a deep voice.

Cao Cao smiled gratifiedly, waved his hands, and walked out.

Watching his back go away, Cao Mao turned his head and looked at the throne on the stage, his eyes sparkling.

When I have digested all the influence of the Cao family, I will start sending troops to destroy the princes of the Quartet!

He even couldn't wait to unify the world as soon as possible, thereby replacing Liu Xie and ascending the throne!

correct.

Speaking of Liu Xie, it was his credit for the quarrel between his father and son this time!

Even if you don't kill him, you still have to deal with him and teach him a lesson!
Thinking of this, a sneer appeared on Cao Mao's face, he lifted his legs and left Xuchang Palace, heading towards the harem.

Zhou Cang and Yanyun Shibaqi followed closely behind.

Not far away, a palace gate guarded by eunuchs and imperial guards appeared in front of Cao Mao.

This palace gate is used to separate the front palace and the back palace.

Seeing Cao Mao's arrival, the eunuchs and imperial guards hurriedly saluted,

"Meet Mr. Su Lie!"

Cao Mao stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly,
"Open the palace door."

The leading eunuchs were taken aback for a moment, and one of them quickly said,

"My lord, this harem is where your majesty, the empress, and concubines live. Foreign officials are not allowed to..."

Before he finished speaking, Cao Mao frowned and waved to Zhou Cang who was beside him.

Zhou Cang strode forward, waving the sword in his hand.

A cold light flashed, and the eunuch's head fell to the ground instantly.

"Anyone else dare to stop me?"

Cao Mao asked softly.

The eunuchs were trembling with fright, they got up quickly and opened the palace door.

"Let me ask you, where is the Son of Heaven at the moment?"

Cao Mao glanced at the eunuchs and asked.

"Return...Report to Young Master, His Majesty...and the Empress...are resting at Yongshi Terrace."

One of the eunuchs hurriedly replied that they were afraid that Cao Mao would be dissatisfied and kill them all.

"Ding, the host triggers the tyrant's mission, forcefully accept Fushou!"
