After a period of careful consideration, Sima Shu bowed to Cao Chong and said respectfully: "Prince, can I go back to the house and ask the elders in the family to answer this matter?"
Although this is Sima Shu's problem to himself, Cao Chong also knows that he can't say nothing.
"Naturally."
Sima Shu looked at Cao Chong's breezy face, and unconsciously felt a deep sense of frustration rising from her heart.
The man in front of him, who was younger than himself, has been firmly in control of the situation from the beginning to the present.
This is true both in terms of process and outcome.
Sima Shu sighed in her heart, and quickly threw out this frustration.
Frustration is understandable, but it would be unwise to be a stumbling block to yourself.
She saluted Cao Chong and slowly withdrew from Chongyuan Hall.
Cao Chong watched Sima Shu's figure disappear in front of him, but the corners of his mouth were hooked up with a sneer.
The Sima family wants to invest in themselves to ensure that whether Cao Chong or Cao Pi gains power in the future, the Sima family will be able to prosper for a long time.
There is nothing wrong with that.
It's definitely nice to be someone else.
Because unlike other families, the Sima family is very willing to give chips and capital.
With a rich person like Cao Chong now, they all feel that the Sima family gives a lot of money, so what about those who don't have much money in the first place That's definitely an astronomical amount.
What's more, there is Cao Chong's urgent need: information on aliens.
The Sima family has done well enough.
But the reason why Cao Chong refused and added conditions was precisely because the Sima family did a good enough job, or it was too good.
In a way, Cao Chong was not sure whether the Sima family was now the Sima family of the Sima family, or the Sima family of the Marquis of Chang'an.
No matter which answer it is, it is not what Cao Chong wants to see.
He felt that the Sima family would have a hand behind this matter.
In the case of guessing in his heart that the Sima family might have other tricks, Cao Chong still agreed to all the conditions of the Sima family, and the premise was that the Sima family would stand in secret.
This is naturally considered by Cao Chong.
First of all, Cao Chong doesn't like the Sima family very much.
The reason is naturally that the predecessor of this body indirectly influenced Cao Chong on the Cao family, Cao Cao, and the memory of this era.
And the Sima family is the one who will usurp the throne in the later generations, so it is strange that Cao Chong has a good impression of him.
Not to mention that Cao Chong in later generations also did not have a good impression of the Sima family.
It is precisely because of the short-lived Western Jin Dynasty and the wonderful Sima family that the Wuhu Chaohua trampled on the land of China and made the Han people a lowly two-legged sheep.
As the one behind this tragedy, Cao Chong didn't have much of a good impression of the Sima family, which is naturally reasonable.
With this dislike, coupled with the possibility in history, Cao Chong subconsciously guarded against the Sima family.
But from another level, the power of the Sima family is not bad.
And at this stage, he does have his strengths, for example, in terms of intelligence on aliens, Cao Chong is very inferior to the Sima family.
Where there is a need, there is cooperation.
But Cao Chong didn't want the Sima family to rely on him, so he allowed the Sima family to secretly support him, ostensibly supporting Cao Pi.
For the Sima family, whether Cao Chong or Cao Pi is in power, in the end, at least the family is fine, and it can even prosper.
Regarding the chips he gave out, Cao Chong felt that the Sima family would agree.
Of course, it is not certain whether the Sima family will play such a suffocating operation as Infernal Affairs.
But Cao Chong didn't care too much For the Sima family, Cao Chong mostly uses ingredients.
Since everyone in the world thinks that the Sima family is the Marquis of Chang'an, and when he is in power, it is natural for the Sima family to be cleansed.
Cao Chong had only one idea.
Eat dry and wipe clean and leave.
As for the relationship between the Sima family and Cao Chong, who loses and who makes in the end, this can only be seen later.
Cao Chong unfolded the thick bamboo slips in his hand, stared at the bamboo slips in his hand with his eyes, and once again entered the study of enriching himself.
In a short period of time, the Luoyang Hou Mansion negotiated a business about a big family, but in the Zuimeng Building, which was some distance away from the Luoyang Hou Mansion, there were two slightly frustrated people who were drinking and having fun inside.
When you drink, you always have to talk, you always have to talk about something.

And what they want to talk about is how to go from here.
In the private room on the second floor of the Drunken Dream Building, two young people, who are almost middle-aged, are holding wine glasses in their hands, and they are staggering.
Kneeling in it was a man in brocade clothes, his appearance was not bad, and his figure was tall.
If it weren't for the eyelids in his left eye, he would definitely be a beautiful man.
It's a pity that after having that eyelid, the grace on his face plummeted several layers.
It's not Ding Yi, who is it?
Opposite Ding Yi was a young man with a rich spirit.
He was dressed in brocade clothes, and at this time he was holding a black wine bottle in his hand, and he looked very chic.
It's just a wine-red face, a frowning brow, and talking about this guy's frustration all the time.
But it was the speculator Wei Wei.
After Cao Zhi fell, Ding Yi actively looked for a home.
The first thing he went to find was Cao Pi, the Marquis of Chang'an.
As for why he was looking for Cao Pi instead of Cao Chong, the Marquis of Luoyang, he naturally had Ding Yi's thoughts.
First of all, in the matter of Cao Zhi's downfall, Ding Yi thought that Cao Pi was more likely to succeed.
So he invested in Cao Pi, even if Cao Pi didn't deal with him before, and even laughed at his eyes.
But for the sake of the future, Ding Yi can endure it.
But what he didn't expect in the end was that Cao Pi didn't intend to accept him at all.
So Ding Yi is in a daze until now, and he is just doing an idle official position, doing nothing.
As for why he didn't go to Cao Chong and find a good official position, but to be depressed, Ding Yi also had Ding Yi's thoughts.
After Ding Yi was rejected by Cao Pi, she felt that it was because she did not vote for the name, so she was rejected by Cao Pi.
So before joining Cao Chong's group, Ding Yi had to find a suitable letter of nomination for herself.
But it's a pity that Ding Yi, who has a weighty vote, hasn't been found yet, and even if he finds it, he hasn't done it yet.
As for Wei Wei, it was naturally the same as Ding Yi.
There is no problem in saying that he is a loyal man, but a more appropriate evaluation of Wei Wei should be a speculator.
He speculated with Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, but unfortunately Cui Yan's matter was revealed, and as a last resort, Wei Yan changed the identity of the person he persuaded from a rebel to a counterinsurgency.
I want to curry favor with Cao Cao.
As a result, Cao Cao, of course, was not moved by Wei Wei, and gave Wei Wei an inconspicuous official position at will.
Then Wei Wei came to speculate on Cao Chong again.
It's a pity that there is still a gap between his wisdom and Cao Chong's wisdom.
Speculation naturally leads to failure.
The two frustrated men each drank their own bitter wine.
After three rounds of drinking, when everyone was about to get drunk, a trace of perseverance flashed in Ding Yi's eyes:
