The video takes us to ancient times; Li Er transforms into the Tongtian Emperor of Shu Han.

“When the immortals were taking stock of the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, I had some doubts.”

"How could it be such a coincidence?"

"It's Wei again, and it's the Sima clan again."

"Sima Yi, you've been hiding your true intentions very well."

"No, or you could say you're very brave."

Cao Cao's gaze grew increasingly cold.

"It's not that he's brave, it's just that he's able to survive."

Old Zhu, always eager to stir up trouble, added fuel to the fire from the sidelines.

Zhao Kuangyin also became interested at this moment.

"Who would have thought that he would outlive you, Cao Cao, and also outlive your son Cao Pi and grandson Cao Rui?"

"Then they deposed your great-grandson Cao Fang, and then the Sima clan killed the emperor Cao Mao, whom they had installed, in the street and officially usurped the throne."

"I don't know how this old man maintains his health. Goodness, he's lived to be seventy-two!"

Anyway, the scene above the sky was still Liu Xiu persuading Wei to surrender, which was nothing compared to all the exciting things happening in Wei right now!

That old scoundrel Sima Yi is really close to being someone everyone wants to kill!

The joke of the Oath of Luo River, the beginning of the aristocratic families sharing the world, the southward migration of the elite, and the beginning of the disaster of the Five Barbarian Invasions!

Even though the Jin state could be considered a unified dynasty, no historical record would boast about its achievements in unification!

Only the Jin Dynasty could govern the world through filial piety!

Because Sima Yi had long since abandoned loyalty and righteousness!

"Sima Yi, I've heard you're quite the survivor?"

Cao Cao grinned maliciously and lowered his head.

He had heard people say long ago that Sima Yi was a man of eagle-like eyes and wolf-like gaze, and was by no means an easy opponent.

But he never paid any attention to it.

He was certain that as long as Cao Cao lived, Sima Yi would only dare to restrain his ambitions and obediently serve the Wei Kingdom.

Cao Pi's abilities were also sufficient to suppress Sima Yi.

But he just didn't think of that.

This old man always looked like he was seriously ill, and as a result, he not only outlived him and Cao Pi, but even his grandson Cao Rui couldn't outlive him!

This is fucking ridiculous!

Thinking of this, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel somewhat helpless.

Surely it couldn't really be because he usurped the Han throne from Cao Wei that he incurred divine retribution, could it?

The last person to usurp the Han throne was Wang Mang, whose head has been circulated for countless years and has yet to be buried.

Seeing Cao Cao's guilty look in the corner of the sky, Li Er instantly guessed what he was thinking.

"Prime Minister Cao, you don't need to think so much. There shouldn't be any divine retribution in this world, at least not because you usurped the Han throne."

"As long as you do well enough, as long as you can make the people live a good life, and as long as you can achieve enough merits to convince everyone, after you become emperor, great Confucian scholars will naturally come to debate the classics for you."

"I am confident that hundreds of years from now, when future generations mention me, Li Shimin, they will not remember me as a bad son who murdered his brother and imprisoned his father, but as a good emperor!"

Li Er's understanding is very clear.

Divine retribution?

If such a thing truly existed, Li Jiancheng wouldn't have been the one who died in the Xuanwu Gate Incident!

As for reputation?

Then all he can say is that the food itself is the original sin!

Let alone Cao Cao, even the disloyal and unjust Jin Dynasty, if they could have been as powerful as the Han Dynasty and enabled the people to live a prosperous life, no one would have held a grudge against them!

He only believes in one thing.

If you have a bad reputation, then you should really think about whether you're just too incompetent!

If you do well enough, you won't need to defend yourself against the so-called crimes you committed in the past. The great scholar will naturally find the best excuse for you!

"is that so?"

Cao Cao was indeed afraid.

There was already an example before him.

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped the throne.

As a result, Liu Xiu, a member of the Han imperial family, was born out of nowhere.

He is charitable, makes many friends, and possesses great talent and ambition, as if he has a destiny bestowed upon him!

Rising to prominence in a short period of time, it almost effortlessly unified the world and restored the Han Dynasty.

If we're being too picky, Dong Zhuo could be considered one of them.

But Dong Zhuo died just as tragically, at the hands of his own adopted son!

the most important point is.

The more Cao Cao thought about it, the more he realized that his current situation was very similar to Wang Mang's!

They were Han dynasty imperial relatives who appeared as wandering knights.

They share the same generosity and unparalleled benevolence.

They possessed the same great talent and ambition, and seemed to be blessed by destiny, surviving many twists and turns unscathed.

Most importantly, Liu Bei, who previously didn't even have a territory, seemed to have his Ren and Du meridians opened up instantly.

It also rose rapidly in a short period of time.

Liu Xiu was in Hebei, while Liu Bei was in Sichuan!

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that if he became emperor, he would be the second Wang Mang!

"Forget it. I don't have the confidence to be a good emperor. If the mandate of heaven is with me, I would like to be King Wen of Zhou."

After struggling with his conscience for a long time, Cao Cao finally let out a long sigh of helplessness.

Immediately afterwards, he found an outlet for his pent-up regret and anger.

Sima Yi!

That old thing is still lying here!

"Although I cannot do anything to you in the history that the immortals have already reviewed, at least now I can prevent it from happening."

"You treat the oath of the Luo River like a fart, huh?"

"You dare to murder the emperor of my Great Wei in the street, huh?"

"Sima Yi, your retribution has come today!"

Cao Cao stepped forward and kicked Sima Yi to the ground.

Xu Chu drew his broadsword and was about to chop the old man into seven or eight pieces.

Just then, Li Er spoke softly.

"Prime Minister Cao, I suggest you don't let Sima Yi die too easily. After all, your great-grandson seems to have died quite heroically."

Cao Cao: "?"

heroic?

How heroic could an emperor be if he were murdered in the street?

Hasn't it already been completely controlled by the Sima clan?

"Of course, during the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, too many historical books were destroyed and very few records were made. What I know may not be true either, but we can still see clues from these few words."

Li Er knew what Cao Cao wanted to ask, but he only knew that such a thing existed, and nothing more.

His personal speculation led him to believe that Cao Mao's death was not so simple!

Just then, perhaps because everyone's attention had been diverted, a line of text flashed across the sky.

[Noticing Cao Cao's doubts, and the fact that countless people are unfamiliar with this period of history and with the emperor who dared to launch one last charge.]

Following this list of wise rulers, additional lists will be added.

A tragic emperor!

The immortal spoke, and the sky immediately fell silent.

Since that's the case, there's no need to continue the discussion now.

This made Lao Zhu, who was preparing to give a proper explanation, give up the idea.

No matter who it is, none of them have the image that the immortals have compiled.

After all, immortals not only have subtitles, but also visuals!

But getting back to the main point, Liu Xiu no longer had any of his previous worries.

Or rather, he is now more confused.

Given Zhao Gao's previous ruthless methods, could he not see that sending troops to hunt him down as soon as possible was the best option?

"You're overthinking it, Emperor of the Han Dynasty. He really can't see through it."
