Chapter 1200 Decision

Bai Feng believed that Cao Chong would write to him because he wanted to compete for the power to supervise the country.

However, although I had supported Cao Chong to become the prince before.

But as the relationship between himself and Cao Cao deteriorated, Bai Feng no longer wanted to participate in the fight for the crown prince's position.

Cao Zhi, Cao Pi and Cao Chong fight for the position of prince however they like, let them fight for it.

This was originally a headache for Cao Cao.

Now Cao Chong wrote to himself, but there was no signature, and there was no sentence in the letter about asking Bai Feng to help him fight for the power to supervise the country.

"It's not bad. I know I'm not asking myself to help myself."

Bai Feng was quite satisfied with Cao Chong's performance.

If Cao Chong really begged him for mercy, then Bai Feng would have more issues to consider.

If Mingming helped Cao Chong fight for the crown prince's position, then from Cao Cao's point of view, in order to prevent the future emperor of Wei from becoming a puppet in Bai Feng's hands.

Just like Cao Cao himself holding the emperor hostage to order the princes, this is something that Cao Cao absolutely cannot tolerate.

Therefore, Bai Feng would not directly help Cao Chong fight for the crown prince's position anyway.

The first is that Bai Feng's own R&D center has just been established.

The steam engine has just been successfully manufactured, and the manufacturing of steam trains has not yet begun.

So now when Bai Feng faces the pressure from Cao Cao, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, it is even more difficult to develop his own strength.

Secondly, Bai Feng and Cao Cao have not completely broken up yet, so there is still room for maneuver in their relationship.

But no matter what, Bai Feng will prepare for the worst now.

That is how Hanzhong will deal with itself after the real Cao Cao parted ways.

"But we still need to make a real confirmation first. Is Cao Cao really ill in bed and unable to take charge of the government?"

Bai Feng thought secretly in his heart.

If Cao Cao is still alive and kicking now, then the nature of this matter will be different.

Cao Cao pretended to be ill and asked Cao Pi, Cao Zhi and Cao Chong to compete for the power of supervising the country, thereby selecting the real crown prince and heir to the Wei Dynasty.

If this is really the case, Bai Feng has no interest in participating.

But if Cao Cao is really ill and unable to handle the affairs of the government, and has to choose one of Cao Pi, Cao Zhi and Cao Chong to supervise the country, then Bai Feng would be interested in helping Cao Chong.

Of course, this kind of help must be done secretly.

It is absolutely impossible for Bai Feng to jump out and shout that I support Cao Chong in supervising the country on his behalf, and he should be appointed as the crown prince.

This seriously conflicts with Bai Feng's low-key development strategy.

That's why Bai Feng wanted to confirm Cao Cao's true physical condition.

"Should I reply to Cao Chong's letter, or should I go to Yecheng and take a look myself?"

Bai Feng was a little undecided for a moment.

After thinking about it, Bai Feng thought that he should go to Yecheng Palace to see how Cao Cao's physical condition was.

In this matter, Bai Feng still only believed what he saw.

After making up his mind, Bai Feng asked his servants to call Cao Jie to the study.

"Husband."

After a while, Cao Jie came to the study.

Looking at Bai Feng who was thinking, Cao Jie said softly.

"The festival is here. Please sit down first. I have something important to tell you."

Bai Feng asked Cao Jie to sit next to him, and then handed Cao Jie the letter sent by Cao Chong.

After Cao Jie took the letter, he looked at the blank on the envelope and asked Bai Feng curiously:

"Who sent this letter to my husband? Why doesn't it even have a name?"

"It should be from Cao Chong. You should read the contents of the letter first before talking."

Bai Feng replied to Cao Jie.

Cao Jie began to read the contents of the letter, and his brows furrowed more and more as he read.

After a while, Cao Jie placed the letter on the table.

Then she looked at Bai Feng and said softly:

"Father, is he really that seriously ill?"

As Cao Cao's most beloved daughter, Cao Jie and Cao Cao naturally have a good relationship.

Therefore, what Cao Jie is most concerned about now is Cao Cao's physical condition.

Although Cao Jie knew that Bai Feng and Cao Cao were already inseparable, how could the relationship between father and daughter be broken up so easily.

After Bai Feng heard Cao Jie's inquiry, he shook his head.

"I'm not sure yet, as Cao Chong said in his letter, your father is seriously ill enough to need Cao Pi or Cao Zhi to supervise the country on his behalf."

After Cao Jie heard Bai Feng's answer, he couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope in his heart.

Then she asked Bai Feng again:

"Husband, why do you see me?"

After hearing this, Bai Feng told Cao Jie his previous analysis:

"The Wei Dynasty has been established for many years, but the position of crown prince has been unresolved."

"When I first supported Cao Chong, your father had the intention to make Cao Chong the prince, and Cao Chong is indeed very smart."

"But according to the situation at the time, it should be Cao Pi and Cao Zhi who were secretly building momentum, so there were many objections in the court who favored the elders over the young."

"Afterwards, as the relationship between me and your father deteriorated, no one mentioned the matter of making Cao Chong the crown prince again."

"As your father gets older, he will be appointed a prince sooner or later."

"So I guess that this time your father may have asked Cao Pi and Cao Zhi to compete for the position of supervising the country under the pretense of illness, and then secretly judged their performance to determine who should be appointed as the crown prince of Wei!"

After listening to Bai Feng's analysis, Cao Jie felt that Bai Feng's analysis made a lot of sense.

This also seemed like something Cao Cao could do.

But as Cao Jie's daughter, she was too concerned.

Although Bai Feng's analysis made sense enough, Cao Jie still wanted to visit Cao Jie in person.

Bai Feng and Cao Jie had been married for many years, so naturally they saw that their analysis could not completely convince Cao Jie.

Moreover, Bai Feng's analysis was just his inference based on Cao Cao's behavior, and it was not necessarily Cao Cao's true behavior.

"Jie'er, why don't you and I go to Yecheng together to see how your father's health is?"

After a moment, Bai Feng asked Cao Jie.

"Really? That's great!"

Cao Jie was excited when she heard Bai Feng say that he would go to Yecheng with her.

Since Bai Feng and Cao Cao were not in harmony, Cao Jie had not seen her father Cao Cao for a long time.

Now that Bai Feng took the initiative to mention going back to Yecheng with her, how could Cao Jie not be excited.

After the excitement, Cao Jie couldn't help but ask Bai Feng:

"But is it really appropriate for my husband to appear in Yecheng at this time?"

Bai Feng considered Cao Jie, and Cao Jie would naturally consider Bai Feng.

"It's appropriate, but I really can't appear in Yecheng with my true appearance, so as not to attract unnecessary speculation"
