ps: Chapter Anti-theft, correct it later...

After arriving at Gaopingling, just at the hour of Mao, Jiang Ji couldn't help but laugh as he watched the formation of firewood as deer antlers around the camp.

This approach is simply too naive. If Sima Yi's army really attacked them, it would be a big joke to rely on these fortifications made up of firewood alone to block Sima's army's attack. It seems that the Cao Shuang brothers are really not the materials for leading troops to fight. They are far behind Cao Zhen.

Cao Shuang was deeply surprised by Jiang Ji's arrival, but Cao Shuang still politely welcomed Jiang Ji into the tent and said, "The Grand Marshal is here to come, but he wants to see the emperor?"

Jiang Ji said sternly: "The emperor is the emperor of a country. He should be in the high place of the temple, but he is displaced and sleeps in the open air. This is the crime of the general, and we cannot refuse to blame."

Cao Shuang sneered: "It's not that I don't want the Emperor to return to Beijing, but it's that Sima Taifu started a rebellion and closed the city gate. Someone has a family and cannot return it."

Jiang Ji said: "The general's words are wrong. Sima Taifu implemented military rebellion, not to plot against rebellion, but to follow the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager to clear the king's side, eliminate treacherous and slanderous people, and to return the government to the clear and clear government."

Cao Shuang's face suddenly changed and he said, "Clear the emperor's side and eliminate the treacherous and slandered? What a big tone. Do you believe me or not, can you kill your head now?"

Jiang Ji said quietly: "Since I dare to come, I will naturally put life and death aside. The general wants to kill him and kill him, and he will cut him to the emperor. However, after killing him, the general himself washed his neck and waited for the killing."

"Do you dare to threaten me?" Cao Shuang said angrily.

"This is not a threat, but a fact. There is something here. Please let the general take a look." Jiang Ji smiled strangely, took out something from his sleeve, and let Cao Shuang come and see it.

When Cao Shuang saw it, it was a jade bracelet, which was pure and flawless. It was a rare treasure among jade. Cao Shuang only took a look and his face changed drastically, because this jade bracelet was the ornament of his most beloved concubine, Bizhu. Now it has fallen into Jiang Ji's hands. I believe she is also in danger.

"Bizhu? What are you doing to her?"

Jiang Ji said leisurely: "General, don't worry, your concubine is very safe now. Not only her, but also Sima Taifu is taking good care of them. As for their ultimate fate, it is only within your thoughts. If the general wants to burn everything, that's what it means."

As he said that, Jiang Ji loosened his hand and the jade bracelet fell straight to the ground and broke into several pieces.

The crisp sound of the jade breaks, just like a death knell, hitting Cao Shuang's fragile heart. Cao Shuang's face turned pale, took a step back, and sat on the bed, his eyes were dull and empty.

After the fall of Luoyang City, there is no doubt that Cao Shuang's family would definitely be held hostage by Sima Yi, but Cao Shuang did not have the courage to face this fact. Now that Jiang Ji has played cards with him, Cao Shuang is ultimately desperate.

"What do you want?" Cao Shuang said tremblingly.

Jiang Ji smiled slightly and said, "General, you must have read the memorial submitted to the emperor yesterday by Sima Taifu. Sima Taifu has no other intentions. As long as the general can return power to the emperor, he can ensure that the whole mansion is safe and sound. The general will return to the marquis and enjoy wealth forever."

Cao Shuang looked like a drowning person who saw a life-saving straw, and his eyes shone: "Sima Taifu really said this? If someone returns to power, can Sima Taifu really protect peace?"

Jiang Ji said confidently: "Before leaving, Sima Taifu once called Luoshui as an oath, as long as the general handed over the military power, he would be fine. He had been an official for decades and knew the character of his character. He was willing to make a guarantee, so he would be relieved."

Cao Shuang said dejectedly like a deflated ball: "If Sima Taifu can keep his promise, he will hand over the military power and return the power to the emperor."

Jiang Ji smiled and bowed, "Since that's the case, I'll leave first and wait for the general to be in Luoshuiqiao."

Jiang Ji achieved his goal and did not delay the trouble. He quickly said goodbye. After leaving Cao Shuang's tent, Jiang Ji met Huan Fan. Jiang Ji bowed to the court and smiled slightly and said, "Doctor Huan is so hard to travel overnight."

Huan Fan sneered: "It's really a shame to come to be a lobbyist with the body of the three Grand Dukes of Jiang."

Jiang Ji laughed and said, "It is the duty of serving the emperor for the safety of the emperor. Doctor Huan, say goodbye, let's see you in Luoyang." After that, Jiang Ji left.

Huan Fan's face turned pale. From Jiang Ji's smug smile, it was obvious that he got the result he wanted. This was not good news for Huan Fan. He hurried in and saw Cao Shuang holding a few pieces of broken jade in dismay, and stepped forward and bowed: "General"

Cao Shuang raised her head blankly and murmured to herself: "What can I do? What should I do?"

Huan Fan couldn't help but say, "Sima Yi is cruel and vicious, Jiang Ji's sweet words, the general should not trust him easily! Now the general holds military power, they will be a little afraid. If they get rid of the armor and return to the title, it will be the person who serves as the slaughter and I will be the meat of fish!"

Cao Shuang shook her head and smiled bitterly, "This is the jade bracelet of my beloved concubine Bizhu. They used it to threaten me. If I don't hand over the military power, this jade bracelet will end up. How can I ignore the life and death of the whole family?"

Huan Fan said: "Why are real men not worried about having no wife, let alone concubines? The general is in charge of the army, and the old thief Sima may be a little afraid and dare not attack the general's family. If the general returns to the post, without soldiers and power, it will not be a disaster for the extermination of the clan!"

Cao Shuang said: "Sima Yi, Jiang Ji and others are also people with status. Since they have made a poisonous oath, they will never be able to go back on their word. Besides, I am in charge of military power. They are afraid that if I am free from the army and return to the school, there is no place to threaten them anymore. Why do you need to kill me? Forget it, just send an order back to Beijing."

Huan Fan said anxiously: "General, Sima Yi is a man who is lenient on the outside and jealous on the inside. He will retaliate against the grudges. If he gains power, he will kill all his enemies. If the general has been in trouble for many years, he will not be spared. I hope the general will think twice."

Huan Fan repeatedly advised him, but Cao Shuang had decided and refused to listen to the advice.

At this time, all the ministers arrived, and Cao Shuang announced the return to Luoyang. Most of them remained silent. Only General Sima Luzhi and Lord Bo Yang Zong opposed it. However, Cao Shuang could no longer listen to any opinions at this time and ordered the camp to set up a camp and return to the capital.

The army left Gaopingling and walked in a winding manner, with flags not spreading, and morale was sluggish.
