Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, three years have passed, and the time has advanced to the summer of the 19th year of Jian'an!
Within three years, the world was peaceful and there was no war. The common people, men farming and women weaving, lived and worked in peace and contentment, enjoying the rare tranquility, and hoped that this good life would last longer!
But in a world of great strife, peace is short-lived, and war is the main theme. The rulers of Cao Wei, Bashu, and Jiangdong did not take it lightly. They were all planning day and night, hoping to complete the great cause of unification by themselves!
As for Bashu, Liu Bei appointed Zhuge Liang as prime minister, with full authority over all government affairs. The latter also fulfilled his trust, selecting talents, appeasing the people, encouraging farming, and revitalizing commerce The situation in Bashu improved greatly, and the wounds of the war gradually healed, and There is a trend of prosperity!
Seeing that the granaries were full and the money bags were bulging, the warlike generals Guan Yu and Zhang Fei became restless again. They wrote to the King of Hanzhong many times, requesting to send troops to the Northern Expedition and fight to the death with Cao Wei!
But he was rejected every time. Liu Bei's answer was simple: 'Although the traitor Cao is dead, Xiao Yi is still there, the Central Plains will not be in chaos, and the Northern Expedition will be difficult to achieve! ¡¯
It¡¯s not that I don¡¯t want to send troops, it¡¯s just that I don¡¯t have enough confidence, and I¡¯m even more scared of being beaten by Xiao Yi. This is an invincible man!

On the east side of the Yangtze River, seeing that the three-point tripartite tripod had been formed, Sun Quan also gained courage. In the 18th year of Jian'an, on the second day of the second lunar month, he worshiped heaven and earth on Zijin Mountain outside Jianye City, calling himself the King of Wu and setting up his wife Xie. The surname is the queen, and the eldest son Sun Deng is the prince!
Zhang Zhao was appointed Prime Minister, Gu Yong was appointed Shangshu Ling, and Zhuge Jin was appointed Zhongshu Ling. The three of them jointly took charge of the government affairs of the six counties in the east of the Yangtze River. Lu Su was also appointed as the general governor, sitting in Wuchang City on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and commanding all the troops in the east of the Yangtze River. Horse, guard against the invasion of Cao Wei and Bashu!
Unfortunately, Lu Su died of illness not long after he took office due to overwork. The position of governor-general became vacant. Generals such as Lu Meng, Gan Ning, Ling Tong, Zhu Zhi, and Zhu Huan were very excited, thinking that they had to be the replacement.
What he didn¡¯t expect was that Sun Quanquan, against all opinions, promoted Lu Xun, who was only 26 years old, to take over the position of Grand Governor, and personally taught him the sword and wielded the power of life and death. The whole world was shocked for a while!
¡¡
As for Cao Wei, Cao Pi worked hard to govern, used both kindness and power, and continued to win people's hearts. He finally secured his position as King of Wei and established a certain prestige, and his ambitions also expanded.
Facing the throne that was so close at hand, Cao Pi was distracted and had trouble sleeping and eating. Finally, under the temptation of the desire for power, he raised his thigh and prepared to take this final step!
Xuchang City - In the lobby of the Prime Minister's Mansion!
"I and others pay homage to the great king - Chitose, Chitose, Chitose!"
"Everyone, please excuse me and take a seat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Cao Pi is sitting on the throne, wearing a twelve-crown crown, a red robe with four-clawed dragon patterns on the top and bottom, and a Tai'a sword hanging on his waist. His aura is as steady as Mount Tai, and he has a vague imperial posture!
This is not surprising. The temperament of a person is exaggerated by the living environment. Even a beggar with a crooked nose and slanted eyes can transform into a dragon and a phoenix if he puts on a five-clawed golden dragon robe and lives in the palace for a few years. The watch of the sun!
What¡¯s more, Cao Pi was handsome, came from a wealthy family, read poetry and books, was talented, and had been a king for several years, so he naturally developed his temperament!
Cheng Yu, Hua Xin, Dong Zhao, Xin Pi, Xin Ping, Wang Lang, Jiang Ji, Cao Xiu, Cao Zhen, Sima Yi dozens of important officials from the imperial court knelt down and saluted, and then took their seats according to their official positions, from east to west!
However, the first seat on the west side is vacant. It is the seat of the head of the generals. Although the rest of the people are very greedy, no one dares to take a step forward. Not even clan generals like Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen dare to take that seat. It only belongs to one person, even if they don¡¯t come!
In addition, Cao Hong, one of the eight ministers of Gu Ming and the only remaining among the four generals of the clan, did not attend this meeting. As for the reason, everyone knows it!
"I have called you all here today because there is a major matter to discuss, which is related to the prosperity and decline of the country, the country, and the country. But before discussing, let's take a look at this thing!"
"His!¡ª¡ªHi!"
After the meeting began, Cao Pi pondered for a moment, and then as if he had made some determination, he took out a memorial from his arms and asked his attendants to show it to the ministers!
The memorial quickly went around in a circle, and everyone who saw it changed their expressions. Some had expressions of ecstasy, some frowned, and there were gasps of air. What could have made the important ministers lose their composure?
It turns out that a few days ago, something appeared in the sky over XuchangYour achievements are unparalleled, please give me another honor, Your Majesty!
Then an edict was issued in the name of the emperor, allowing Cao Pi to live in Jianzuo, face the ministers in the south, and handle military and state affairs. All etiquette, clothing, and daily life should be like that of the emperor, and he would not be called the king, but the "false emperor!" ¡¯
The false emperor is not a false true or false, but an acting emperor. Before Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty, he had been a false emperor for more than three years!
??Also during the conflict between Chu and Han, after Han Xin pacified Qi, he believed that his hard work was great and asked Liu Bang to confer him the title of "False King of Qi", that is, acting as King of Qi!
But Liu Bang was even more scheming and directly crowned Han Xin as the True King of Qi, and then won his full support. Only then did he join forces and defeat Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu!
There is also the famous fake eunuch Lao Ai. Because he had an affair with the Queen Mother of Qin, he went around bragging to everyone that he was the 'fake father' of Qin King Ying Zheng, that is, the surrogate father!
??Similarly, let Cao Pi be a fake emperor first to test the reaction of the people in the world. If there are no opponents, or if there are very few opponents, they can be suppressed quickly!
Take the remaining half step, hold a surrender ceremony, and legitimately turn the false emperor into a real emperor, and the Han Empire into the Wei Empire!
On the contrary, if there are many people who oppose it, and some people even raise troops to serve the king to maintain the rule of the Han Dynasty, then Bashu and Jiangdong will also take the opportunity to launch an attack!
Cao Pi could also take a half-step back, resign from the title of 'False Emperor', kill a few more unimportant ministers, and shirk the blame, so as to appease the people of the world!
From now on, I will continue to be the King of Wei, consolidate my strength and increase my prestige, and when the time is right, I will attack the throne for the second time!
Comparing the two, the first plan is faster and less troublesome, but it is more dangerous!
The second plan is slow and cumbersome, but it is safe and secure!
The ministers just suggested that the decision-making power lies in the hands of Cao Pi. What will happen to this ambitious King of Wei who is a thousand years old? (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
