"I would like to see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"Well, why did Zhongda leave and come back?"
"I came here late at night to relieve His Highness' worries!"
At nightfall, Cao Pi drank two more cups of old ginseng soup, preparing to cheer up and continue reviewing the memorials. Unexpectedly, a figure quietly entered the study, it was Sima Yi who had left not long ago!
Sima Yi served as a literary minister and usually lived in the prime minister's house. He was deeply favored by Cao Pi and could directly enter the study without any notification. Therefore, he often came here late at night to plot military and state affairs with him!
"Haha, the worries in my heart have been completely resolved during the day, so what worries are there anymore?"
"Among the lower officials, Linzihou and Xiaohuaihou are just scabies and can't affect the world's major events, but the prince has a serious problem at his heart!"
"Oh, Zhongda, tell me, what is a serious concern?"
"Haha, this prince is intellectually capable, so why should he lower his official position and talk too much?"
A truly smart person will not say everything. If he half-speaks, he can move forward and retreat freely. If he has said everything, he will get into trouble. Sima Yi knows this truth very well!
The clouds on Cao Pi's face became even thicker, because Sima Yi's words hit the point, and he was indeed deeply troubled!
Since becoming the crown prince, Cao Pi has used his power to cleverly place people around his younger brothers to monitor their every move, word and deed!
To put it bluntly, if Cao Zhi and Cao Xiong really rebelled, Cao Pi would be able to deal with them with a wave of his hand, and they would not threaten his political status at all!
But there is one person who not only seriously threatens his position, but can even easily replace him - Xiao Yi!
Xiao Yigong was unparalleled and had a large number of troops. He was the most powerful sect in Cao's camp. When his father Cao Cao was alive, he spent countless efforts on the basis of his position as prime minister, father-in-law, and monarch. Suppress it!
Cao Pi¡¯s ability, achievements, and prestige are far less than those of his father. How can he suppress this ¡®greedy wolf¡¯? If he cannot suppress it, can the country and the country still belong to the Cao family?
Don¡¯t forget, there are hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers and horses gathered in Hanzhong and Guanzhong areas, as well as sufficient food, grass, and ordnance. Most of the civil and military generals in Liangzhou, Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Xuzhou are Xiao Yi¡¯s confidants!
"If this 'greedy wolf' has a different intention and leads hundreds of thousands of troops to march eastward, he can capture Luoyang City in five days, surround Xuchang City in ten days, and then sweep across the entire Central Plains without much effort. This is a serious problem!"
"I feel like I'm sitting on pins and needles even if the serious trouble is not eliminated. Zhongda is resourceful and must have a way to restrain himself. I hope he can teach me a good strategy. As long as I can keep the foundation of the Cao family, I will share it with Zhongda."
Cao Pi suddenly stood up from the table, bowed and clasped his fists to ask for advice, pretending to be a courteous corporal, and made a promise to share the country!
"I have received the kindness of my son, even if my body is shattered to pieces, I can't repay it. How dare I have any wrong thoughts anymore - boom! Boom!"
Sima Yi was even better at acting. He knelt on his knees and kowtowed. His face also showed various expressions of gratitude, fear, and loyalty, and he could switch back and forth with ease!
?????????????????????? It¡¯s not like this. Anyone who reads history books knows that Wu Zixu assisted Fu Chai to succeed the King of Wu, and helped him defeat the Yue Kingdom, and was promised half of the country. So what was the result?
"Zhongda has any clever ideas, please tell me quickly!"
"Nuo, the ancients said: If the master and the ministers are strong, the world will be in chaos. Now that the prince is still young, but the great Sima has become powerful, how can the two be safe? Don't forget about Huo Guang and the king of Changyi!
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The great Sima is a lonely and important minister, and his gang members are all over the world. If they are suddenly eliminated, there will be a backlash. Is it the foolish opinion of the lower officials? Only by giving both kindness and power can we be safe! "
"What Zhongda said is absolutely true. Compared with Huo Guang, Da Sima is worse than Huo Guang. But what is kindness and what is prestige?"
Huo Guang was the Tuogu minister of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The most overbearing thing he ever did was to welcome Liu He, the king of Changyi, as the king after the death of Emperor Zhao of the Han Dynasty (he succeeded to the throne at the age of eight and died at the age of 21 without any children). Twenty-seven days later, he was deposed and replaced by Liu Bingji, who was later Emperor Xuan of the Han Dynasty!
Cao Pi was far more cunning and treacherous than the stupid King of Changyi, but Xiao Yi's domineering and power-seeking skills were far superior to Huo Guang's.
??But it¡¯s almost the same!
My father also said that Sima Yi looked down upon the wolf and was by no means a loyal minister. He could use his talents but not his people. If the greedy wolf is there, then the tiger will survive. If the greedy wolf dies, then the tiger will be killed. This is what he said more. Keep it in mind!
¡¡¡¡
"The snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman wins. Xiao Yi, Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, Cao Xiong, Xia Houyuan you go bite each other, it is best to fight to the death together. Sooner or later, the thousands of miles of mountains and rivers under the sky will belong to our Sima family. -hey-hey!"
Deep in the woods of Xiangfu, a voice sounded quietly, full of dark flavor!
¡¡¡¡
"Your Highness! - Your Highness, the officials no longer trusted me, and I finally came back alive. This is the seal and ribbon of the late king!"
"Ziyu and Gongren have worked hard, why are you in such a mess?"
"Ah, it's hard to put it into words, narrow escape from death"
Late at night on the sixth day of February, Hua Xin and Dong Zhao finally returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion. They were covered in mud and in a mess, almost like beggars. Each held a sandalwood box in their arms, which was the seal of the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty and the treasure of the King of Wei!
Cao Pi hurriedly came out. He first put away the two seals and ribbons, and then asked his attendants to help them wash, change clothes, and eat. After they felt a little more energetic, he asked about the cause and effect.
It turns out that Hua Xin and Dong Zhao have been in officialdom for a long time and are well aware of the cruelty of political struggle. A white knife goes in and a red knife comes out. There is no mercy at all. Therefore, after receiving the two seals and ribbons, they were not in a hurry to leave Luoyang City!
Instead, they selected some of their henchmen, divided them into ten teams, carried empty boxes in their arms, and under the banner of two people, returned to Xuchang City along the road to cover up others' eyes and ears!
Hua Xin and Dong Zhao put on ordinary people's clothes and took only a few followers with them. They did not ride horses but donkeys. They did not walk on the main roads but on the trails For four days and four nights, they did not sleep and made a big circle in the wilderness. , finally returned to Xuchang City!
The two arrived at noon and did not dare to enter the city immediately, so they hid in the graveyard outside the city and waited until dark before quietly entering the city and entering the Prime Minister's Mansion through the back door. They were not too careful. Yes, but you can¡¯t do it accidentally!
Because only two of the ten teams sent returned to Xuchang City, with heavy casualties and few remaining personnel. The remaining eight teams disappeared forever It is not easy to guess who is behind the scenes, but it is not difficult to guess. !
Because of preparations, on the third day after receiving the seal, which was the eighth day of the second lunar month in the 16th year of Jian'an, Cao Pi worshiped the heaven, earth, mountains, rivers, and gods at the bank of Yingshui River in the south of Xuchang City, and he succeeded to the throne as King of Wei. Make his wife Zhen the queen, and his son Cao Rui the crown prince - a general amnesty for the whole world, and universal celebration!
At the same time, he respects his father Cao Cao as: King Wu of the Wei Dynasty, and his mother Bian as the Queen Mother!
He also respected his deceased brother, Cao Ang, as Duke Feng Mourning, built a temple to worship him, and gave one of his concubines a son, who was adopted into his eldest brother¡¯s name and continued the incense for generations to come!
The second sister, Cao Jie, was also granted the title of Princess Changli, with a settlement of 6,800 households, and was given twenty carts of gold and silk!
The third sister, Cao Hua, was granted the title of Princess Chang of Yangping, with a settlement of 5,400 households. The other brothers and sisters also received awards. It can be said that it is full of human touch and has been praised by both the government and the public!
On March 9, Emperor Liu Xie issued an imperial edict, conferring Cao Pi the title of Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, leading the shepherd of Jizhou, taking charge of all the affairs of the court, going to the palace with swords and shoes, paying homage to unknown people, and wearing the emperor's chariot and uniform with a guard of honor!
At this point, Cao Pi has taken over all the political rights left by his father!
On March 11, when Cao Pi held a banquet in the Prime Minister's Mansion and was preparing to add civil and military officials to continue to win over people's hearts, an urgent report came from Qingzhou - Cao Zhi, the Marquis of Linzi, had rebelled! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
