042 Queen Bian of Kabuki (II)

In the first month of the twenty-fifth spring of Jian'an, the sixty-six-year-old Cao Cao died of illness in Luoyang.

It doesn't matter who you are, there will be a day when you die, which is irresistible.

When he was dying, Cao Cao left his last words, and he wore the clothes of his death to be buried, and the funeral goods were also pottery and wood vessels, and gold and jade treasures were not allowed; In addition, the soldiers and generals do not have to mourn, and they do their own duties; The concubines and maidservants who have no children in the harem are all sent back to their parents' homes to marry again.

Cao Cao was still quite humane, not only did he not seek to accompany the funeral, but liberated many concubines.

Cao Cao's edict opened up the pragmatic atmosphere of thin burial in the Wei and Jin dynasties.

After that, Wei and the two Jin emperors, and even the nobles and important ministers, followed Cao Cao's example to implement thin burials, neither martyrdom nor large tombs, and childless concubines did not need to be widowed as "living instruments".

The tomb robbing industry has been in decline since then - there are no gold and silver objects, just some pottery and wood objects, and the tomb robbers do not have much motivation.

With the death of a generation of traitorous male Cao Cao, Cao Pi, the eldest son of Queen Bian, stepped onto the stage of history.

After King Wei ascended the throne, Cao Pizun's biological mother, Queen Bian, was the Queen Mother of Wei.

After Cao Pi became the throne of Wei, he rebuilt the An era as Yankang.

In that year, Cao Pi forced the forty-one-year-old Han Xian Emperor Liu Xie to "Chan Rang", and after an official article about you pushing me to let go, he officially ended the Eastern Han Dynasty and established the Cao Wei Empire, which was in the early Huang Dynasty.

In November of the first year of the Huang Dynasty, Liu Xie, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty after Cao Pi was crowned as the Duke of Shanyang, authorized him not to be a minister in front of him - to give him a lot of face.

Liu Xie's four sons were also named liehous at the same time, continuing the incense of the Han Dynasty.

At the same time, Cao Pi posthumously crowned his grandfather Cao Song as Emperor Tai and his father Cao Cao as Emperor Wu.

Bian, who was born in the advocating family, became the first noble lady in the world at the age of her sixtieth birthday: the queen mother, known as the Yongshou Palace.

In the seventh year of the early Huang dynasty (226), Cao Pi died, and his eldest son Cao Rui (叔

ui) ascended the throne, and respected the grandmother Empress Dowager Bian as the Empress Dowager.

In the spring of the fourth year of Taihe (230), Cao Rui (叔

ui) posthumously named Bian's grandfather as Kaiyang Gonghou and his father as Jinghou; Grandmother Zhou's Yang Dujun and Mrs. Gonghou.

Of course, this posthumous seal is not for nothing.

Not long after the posthumous edict was issued, in May of the same year, Bian died of illness at the age of 70.

In July, she was buried with her husband Cao Cao.

Before the joint burial, she thought about it and said in her heart, "I deserve to be buried with him, so let's be buried together." ā€

In June of the second year of Huang Chu, the daughter-in-law of the Empress Dowager Bian, the beautiful Zhen Luo who captivated the country and the city, was killed by her husband Cao Pi because of her grudge and poetry.

What makes us even more strange is the performance of the Empress Dowager Bian.

Zhen Luo married into the Cao family, and paid great effort in this mother-in-law, and her filial piety even exceeded that of the children of the Cao family.

However, in the two years that Cao Pi was the emperor, the Empress Dowager Bian neither stood up for Zhen Luo and asked her son to make her queen, nor did she save her life when she faced death.

This mother-in-law is really incomprehensible.

Also in the second year of the early Huang dynasty, the officials who were ordered to monitor Cao Zhi reported to Cao Pi that Cao Zhi was "drunk and rebellious, and robbed the messenger".

Cao Pi took the opportunity to degrade Cao Zhi's title to Marquis of Anxiang.

In order not to let his mother have any objections, Cao Pi sent the nephew of the Empress Dowager Bian to relay the court discussion to the Empress Dowager.

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Bian was shocked and angry: "I really didn't expect this kid to do such a thing (and let others relay it)." When you reply to the emperor, you say don't break the law of the country because of me. ā€

Later, Cao Pi came to see his mother, and the Empress Dowager Bian never said anything good about Cao Zhi, she is also Cao Zhi's biological mother! Even if she says something neutral, it's good to ask for peace in life for her three sons.

She has always maintained this attitude without attitude, which ordinary people can't do.

Empress Dowager Bian's last appearance in historical materials was in the first year of Taihe, three years before her death.

The reason for her appearance is related to her precious grandson Cao Rui (叔

UI) is directly related to empathy and other love.

Speaking of which, this is really a big joke: Cao Rui (叔), who hates his father for abandoning his wife

ui), in terms of changing his heart and killing his wife, he is even better than his father.

As early as Cao Rui (叔

When he was fifteen or sixteen years old as the king of the plains, he had already married the official princess of Hanoi (Henan Wuzhi) Yu Shi. When he was the king of the plains, he also had a favorite concubine, who was a fellow villager of Princess Yu, surnamed Mao.

Mao Ji is beautiful and gentle, but her background is very low, and her father Mao Jia is just a coachman.

Cao Rui (叔

After being enthroned as emperor, he immediately promoted Mao to a noble concubine second only to the queen, and soon was canonized as the queen, leaving his original wife, Princess Yu, behind.

Cao Rui (叔

ui) is similar to his father's abandonment of his wife and his concubine.

Needless to say, Princess Yu was very dissatisfied with her husband's behavior.

Empress Bian went to Anwei and exhorted her.

Yu complained: "Your Cao family has always liked to set up a lowly person as a queen, and you have never been able to re-establish anyone with virtue and righteousness. However, the queen is in charge of the affairs of the palace, and the emperor listens to the affairs outside the palace, and the two complement each other. If it really can't have a good beginning, then there can't be a good end. I'm afraid that the funeral of the Great Wei will start here! ā€

This is equivalent to revealing the old bottom of the Bian family, because when she married Cao Cao, she was a kabuki and was born a humble background, so after listening to her grandson's daughter-in-law, Empress Bian was very angry, this time she was not silent, but told Yu's words to her grandson as they were.

Cao Rui (叔

ui) was furious after hearing this, and although he didn't hurt the killer, he immediately drove his wife back to the old palace of Ye (Ye yĆØ) City (that is, the cold palace where Zhen Luo was abandoned by Cao Pi that year).

The possible explanation for this is that the Empress Dowager Bian has cultivated into an incorruptible body of King Kong in the battle of the Cao family. She would never say anything about things that might affect her vital interests, and if she had to, she would undoubtedly lean towards the more powerful side.

Although she is a "self-made man", she still has another side:

After Bian became the queen mother, every time she went out and met an elderly person, she would stop the car to ask for warmth, give silk silk, and cry and say: "My biggest hatred is that my parents can't live to this day, and they can't enjoy the glory and warmth." ā€

In addition, the Empress Dowager Bian is as frugal as ever, saying that frugality has become a habit for decades, and she can no longer accept a luxurious lifestyle.

Cao Pi built a mansion for his uncle Bian Bing, and on the day of its completion, the Empress Dowager Bian went to congratulate, and when a congratulatory banquet was held, the Empress Dowager Bian and her entourage only ate vegetables and coarse grains.

- This is obviously a play, this old lady has been doing a drama all her life, and she has not forgotten her profession when she arrives.

The drama of life slowly closes......
