Great Wei Nengchen

People in the world call Cao Cao a "treacherous hero in troubled times", but they don't know that when he was young, he was also a hot-blooded and good man. He wanted to assist the Emperor of Han, abolish the bad government, be a capable minister in the world, and want to be famous in history!

It's a pity that the Han court was extremely corrupt, and the emperors were either incompetent or incompetent, and were unable to restore the declining empire. Under such a general environment, no matter how hard Cao Cao tried, he could not be a capable minister of the world, so he turned around and embarked on the road of traitors. Road, who knows the pain?

Princess Haiyan has both civil and military skills, and is proficient in tactics, so she is a hundred times better than her younger brother Liu Xie. If she becomes the emperor of the Han family, she may be able to restore the general situation of the world, but she is a daughter. This is the misfortune of the big man!

Cao Cao became a traitor because he did not have the help of a sage. His journey was bumpy and difficult, and he was full of dangers. No one understood him during his lifetime, and he was notorious after his death. This is Cao Cao's misfortune!

Cao Cao became a traitor in troubled times, pacified the princes of the four directions, and paved the way for usurping the Han. The people of the Cao family who are sitting here will either become emperors or generals in the future, and they will enjoy endless glory and wealth. This is their great fortune!

"Your Majesty has issued an imperial decree to confer on the old man a prince, to wear twelve hats, to ride in a golden-rooted chariot, to go out to the police station, and to build a royal palace in Ye City... God's grace is so great, what do you think?"

Cao Cao passed the imperial decree to the clansmen and wanted to hear their opinions, especially the opinions of his two sons. Such an important political game is a good opportunity to sharpen his talents.

And Cao Pi and Cao Zhi looked at each other, and they both bowed their heads and thought hard, trying to use their best performance to win the favor of their father and prove their talents!

Although Cao Pi has the upper hand and Cao Zhi is at a disadvantage in the battle for the heir, but the ceremony of conferring the king has not been held, and the position of the son has not been determined for a day, and there are variables in the matter. I don't know who will have the last laugh?

Some people must have thought about it, Cao Cao has already appointed Cao Pi as the heir by default, why didn't Cao Zhi be entrusted to a different place, but continued to stay with him, and participated in military and state affairs, wouldn't he be afraid that the brothers would continue to fight and consume the heritage of the Cao family?

First of all, Cao Cao is treacherous by nature and never trusts anyone. Within a few days of the "hunting incident", he suspected his second son, but he had already designated him as the heir, so he didn't pursue it further in order not to affect his own plans.

But the four sons suffered unfair injustice, and described how they were losing weight day by day, which made Cao Cao very distressed. Therefore, under the circumstances of a loving father, he couldn't bear to let Cao Zhi go to another place, and wanted to make up for it a little.

Secondly, Cao Cao has always had a heart problem: the first successor Cao Ang fell on the battlefield, and the second successor Cao Chong was half dead. Now that Cao Pi is the third successor, will there be any accidents in the middle... I have killed too much in my life, and it is inevitable that there will be retribution On the children and grandchildren!

Therefore, Cao Cao sent three times more people to closely protect Cao Pi's safety, for fear that hostile forces would secretly assassinate him. A poisoned arrow, a glass of poisoned wine, and a poisoned needle... may kill him, especially in this extraordinary period Broke the plan!

But he has killed too many people and offended too many people, it is impossible to guard against. If Cao Pi is not blessed by a king and follows in the footsteps of the first two heirs, then use Cao Zhi to top him to avoid the emergence of the Great Wei An embarrassing situation without a son.

"In my child's foolish opinion, my father should accept the imperial decree, and then announce it to all states, counties, and counties, so that everyone in the world will know about it, and invite elders, celebrities, and powerful men from all over the world to come to Xuchang City to watch the ceremony.

At the same time, a five-zhang high platform was built on the banks of the Yingshui River in the south of Xuchang City, as a place to worship the gods of mountains and rivers, and hold the ceremony of conferring the king. On another auspicious day, all officials of the court, civil and military, would gather to officially crown his father as king.

Then raise money and materials, recruit [-] civilians, and build the Great Wei Palace, the Ancestral Temple...and the corresponding things in Yecheng. "

Cao Pi's answer was quite satisfactory, the arrangements were well-organized, and he showed good government affairs ability, but the second son had other plans in his mind!

My father often regarded himself as the king of Zhou Wen, obviously implying the successor and completing the great cause of abolishing the Han and self-reliance, and this heavy responsibility must fall on his shoulders. The problem is that it is easy to sit on the throne of the emperor, but it is difficult to bear the infamy of usurping the Han Dynasty?

If I take advantage of this opportunity and let my father "take one more step", I will be able to inherit the emperor's throne logically in the future without having to bear the infamy. This idea is a bit selfish, but there will be many people who support it, right?

"Since Emperor Gao killed the white horse and formed an alliance, there has not been a king with a different surname for more than four hundred years. Now that his father has made great achievements and the hearts of all people are admired, it is a matter of course to be crowned king. I am afraid that people with ulterior motives will use this as an excuse to lash out?

Therefore, do you think that although there is an imperial decree from His Majesty to enshrine the king, the father should submit his resignation and resign to show his integrity, and then accept it, formally ennoble the king, so as to avoid the world's lingering mouth, and also reduce some troubles! "

Cao Zhi's expression was quite disturbed. The rumors and gossips in the past few months had seriously setback his confidence. Thanks to the encouragement of the mysterious counselor, he gradually recovered. I hope the unfavorable situation can be reversed!

"Zihuan and Zijian are both right. This old man should follow the good advice, go up to the emperor, and not accept the king's title, so as to cut off the world's sloppy mouth and prevent the villain from causing chaos!

However, there is no delay in building platforms, offering sacrifices, building palaces, and setting up ancestral temples. You should start preparing immediately, and then order the soldiers and horses in Shouchun, Xiangyang, and Chang'an to be on alert to prevent the princes from making trouble! "

Cao Cao nodded in satisfaction, and immediately wrote a memorial, saying that he had done his duty as a minister and did not dare to be rewarded by the king, and sent it back to the palace together with the imperial decree!

As for the suggestions of the two sons, in terms of political level, Cao Zhi's method is slightly better, but there is no better way to know a son than a father. Cao Cao knows exactly how capable his four sons are, and there must be someone who has pointed them out!

But the people around Cao Zhi are either white-faced scholars or unscrupulous military generals, who has such a scheming mind, let's go down and investigate carefully, and don't let his son be used by others!

The rest was simple. On the [-]th day of the first month of November, the emperor once again issued an edict: "The prime minister's meritorious deeds cover the world and shake the world. He is a minister who helps the country. It is not enough to reward his merits without being a king. The prime minister will accept it!" '

In order to avoid the slander of the people in the world, Cao Cao made the second performance, claiming that his merits are meager, and he dare not be rewarded by the king, please ask another great sage to be crowned the throne!

The problem is, in the whole world, within the four seas, Cao Cao dare not accept the reward of the king, who would dare to accept it?

On November [-]th, the emperor issued the edict for the third time: "The prime minister, who is a man of virtue and fortune, strives to promote martial arts, eradicates violence, and clears the Central Plains. Don't say goodbye, prime minister! '

Seeing that the tricks were done enough, Cao Cao no longer backed down, and formally accepted the imperial edict. On the one hand, according to Cao Pi's suggestion, he asked people to build the king's platform, and prepared the seal, clothing, vehicles...all corresponding things for the king's seal!

On the one hand, it was officially announced to the world that in the spring of the 12th year of Jian'an, on the first day of the first lunar month, the gods of mountains and rivers were sacrificed by the Yingshui River, and the ceremony of enfeoffing kings was held.

"Damn woman, you cheated on me in your last life, and you'll still cheat on me in this life. Sooner or later, you'll be in love with me... Why do I drink so much when I'm fine?"

"Son, my poor son, father is sorry for making you suffer in the palace!"

In Wuchouhou's mansion, facing the wordless imperial decree, Xiao Yi really wanted to cry but couldn't stop, he wanted to lead troops into the palace and take his son back, but he couldn't find a reason?

Don’t tell me that the son’s surname is Liu, and he doesn’t know who his biological mother is. If he refuses to admit it, is it possible that he admits his relatives with blood, and there is no scientific basis. ?

In addition, Princess Haiyan deliberately 'robbed' one of her sons. I'm afraid the intention is very big. Is she using this as a hostage to threaten herself everywhere, or is she trying to raise a wolf cub to intervene in her housework in the future?

As for the deep meaning of the wordless imperial decree, Xiao Yi had completely guessed it, let himself protect the safety of the royal family, and restrain the ambitions of the Cao family by the way, don't turn the ceremony of enthroning the king into a ceremony of enthroning, it is necessary to be on guard.

Cao Wei Daihan is a big game, you must be cautious and step by step, now you are forced to ascend the throne and proclaim the emperor, although you can barely sit still, but it is no different from sitting on the fire, and the feeling is definitely not good!

"Come here, please Mr. Wen He, Mr. Yuan Tu, and Guo Yi come to the study to discuss matters, and then call Xuan Er to listen in!"

"promise!"

Chapter 1429 Breaking the iron law, the traitor becomes king ([-])

The 12th year of Jian'an - spring, the first day of the first lunar month, also known as "Yuan Shuo Ri", the most solemn, festive, and auspicious day of the year, which represents the cycle and the renewal of Vientiane, and it is also the day when the villain becomes king!

At Yinshi in the early morning, the four city gates of Xuchang opened, and tens of thousands of armored soldiers poured in, armed with sharp weapons, and set up defenses in the streets, alleys, and traffic arteries. Those who have nothing to do approach.

And three days ago, the Xiangfu and Houfu ordered at the same time: "Martial law within [-] miles around Xuchang City, all checkpoints and rivers are closed, the garrison is not allowed to move at will, and the people are not allowed to walk at will. No pardon!

At the second quarter of Yin time, hundreds of civil and military officials gathered in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and respectfully invited the Prime Minister to go out of the city and go to the Yingshui River to hold the King's Conferment Ceremony!

"Woo! - woo! woo!"

"Ding!—Ding! Ding!"

…………

At the hour of Chen, the middle door of the Prime Minister's Mansion was wide open, and amidst the melodious sound of drums, a team went out mighty and mightily, with the ministers in front leading them, and the generals joining in behind them, holding high the apricot-yellow "Cao" banner...the accompanying car drove There are hundreds of vehicles, and thousands of guards!

In the middle of the team, there are three golden root chariots with six horses, which are qualified to be used by the emperor, and the specifications, colors, decorations... Even the horses are exactly the same, and Cao Cao is in one of them. The purpose, of course, is to prevent assassins from attacking.

Hundreds of years ago, the first emperor paraded to Bolangsha, relying on this method, escaped the assassin's thunderous blow, but the accompanying auxiliary car was smashed to pieces, so the emperors of later generations would prepare three identical golden root chariots when traveling !

As for which car Cao Cao was in, it was the biggest secret of the trip. Only a few confidantes knew about it, and the rest were not allowed to ask. Although today is a day of great joy, it is also the most dangerous moment. , noble families... I don't know how many people want to prevent the traitor from becoming king, and the most direct way is--assassination!

Wang Liao, Qingji, Han Puppet, Jin Bi... How many heroes in history never fell in the court or on the battlefield, but fell in the hands of assassins. Even if you run faster on two legs, you can't escape Jing Ke's sharp dagger!

Just imagine, if on the day Cao Cao became king, in front of civil and military officials, soldiers and civilians, two corpses lay dead and blood flowed for five steps... It would have a greater blow to the Caoying Group than Wulin's defeat More powerful three points!

Therefore, in today's King Conferring Ceremony, the most important thing is not the etiquette, the excitement, or the weather conditions... but the defense against assassins. Such an important matter should naturally be entrusted to someone with great ability.
