Cao Shuo changed the name of the country, which confirmed the "East and West Wei" in the nursery rhyme.

After receiving the news of Cao Pi's relocation of the capital, he summoned his staff to the council chamber.

Sitting upright, Cao Shuo asked everyone: "Cao Zihuan plans to move the capital to Luoyang, what do you think I should do?" ”

"Has the lord ever thought about why he moved the capital to Luoyang?" Jia Xu stood up and asked.

"What does Jia Gong think he has in mind?" Cao Shuo did not answer, but asked Jia Xu rhetorically.

Jia Xu replied: "He wants to move the capital precisely because of the lord." ”

had long thought that Cao Piqian might want to avoid him, but Cao Shuo still asked, "Jia Gong thinks he is because of me?" ”

"Exactly." Jia Xu replied: "Cao Zihuan won Yecheng, looking at the world, the only thing he fears is the lord. ”

"What can he fear of me?" Cao Shuo said: "Liu Xuande and Sun Zhongmou have not been destroyed, and I will not do anything to him for the time being." ”

"The lord has plans to kill Liu Xuande and Sun Zhongmou first, but Cao Zihuan doesn't necessarily think so." Jia Xu replied: "Once the lord sends troops to fight against the two of them, the troops in various places will be empty. There's no guarantee that he won't send troops to stab him in the back. ”

Knowing that Cao Pi was a person, and knowing that he had always been jealous of himself, Cao Shuo's eyes narrowed slightly.

He didn't say anything, Guo Jia stood up: "What Wen He said coincides with me. I also think that Cao Zihuan will secretly stab the lord when he sends troops. ”

"What do you think?" Cao Shuo's gaze swept around everyone's faces.

Everyone seconded the motion.

"In other words, I can't crusade against Sun Zhongmou and Liu Xuande for the time being?" Cao Shuo asked again.

"The world is about to be unified, but the situation of the lord is becoming more and more difficult." Pang Tong said: "Liu Xuande is shrinking in Yizhou, and it is not easy for our army to enter Shu. The crusade against Liu Xuande is difficult to achieve without three or five years. Sun Zhongmou is simpler, but Jiaozhou and Yizhou are adjacent to each other. The so-called cold lips and teeth, once the army approaches Jiaozhou, Liu Xuande will definitely send troops to help the Sun family. As for Cao Zihuan, although he is a brother with the lord, when did he read brotherhood? For the sake of power, he will definitely not hesitate to take advantage of the fire to rob. ”

"What do you mean......" Cao Shuo asked again.

He also sensed that the current situation was very delicate.

For example, in addition to him and Zhang Lu today, other heroes have become emperors.

Tian Feng and Jiang Gan sent back the news that Zhang Lu already had the heart to surrender.

Aside from Zhang Lu, he has the strength to be the emperor, but he has not yet been called the emperor, only him.

"My lord." Sima Yi stood up and said: "I don't think about who to point the troops at now, the most important thing is to stabilize the places, and call the emperor first." ”

Sima Yi asked Cao Shuo to be the emperor, and Guo Jia also continued: "If the lord is not the emperor, the hearts of the soldiers will be cold." ”

"I'm still thinking about being the king of the Han for a few years first." Cao Shuo shook his head with a smile: "Now it seems that I can't be a king for long." ”

"It will be an auspicious day in a few days, and please make plans in advance." Sima Yi urged again.

Cao Shuo nodded: "Since you all have the same mind, I'll do the emperor first." ”

He then said to the crowd, "There is something I have to make clear to you. ”

All eyes were on his face, waiting for what he had to say.

"Qin Shi Huang achieved the imperial cause back then, and declared that the word 'I' was exclusively for the emperor." Cao Shuo said: "But I don't like this word, I think it's appropriate to use the same self-name as you." ”

"The lord means......" Everyone looked at each other, and Jia Xu said: "This word is the emperor who calls himself, and it is Qin Shi Huang who shows his honor......"

"Qin Shi Huang is the emperor of Great Qin, and I am the emperor of Great Wei, why should I listen to him?" Cao Shuo smacked his lips and said: "What I want to be the emperor is personality, and if I follow other people's rules, won't I lose my personality?" ”

The crowd was full of black lines.

Cao Shuo had not yet become an emperor, so he thought about changing the self-title inherited from Qin Shi Huang.

It is not yet known what he will do next.

"Qin Shi Huang unified weights and measures back then, which was indeed a great contribution." Cao Shuo said: "But I don't think some of the rules he set are unnecessary at all, and there are problems with weights and measures. ”

Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't understand what Cao Shuo wanted to do.

Weights and measures are different for each period.

The Han Dynasty dominated the world, and the size and dou Hu had been adjusted, which was quite different from the Qin period.

From Cao Shuo's words, everyone faintly heard that he meant to change weights and measures.

But how he wants to change, no one can think.

"I think it's a bit inconvenient to use size and zhang as a unit of measurement." Cao Shuo said: "I plan to measure in millimeters, centimeters, decimeters and meters. weight, don't use catties, but grams and kilograms. ”

Cao Shuo's mouth foamed at the mouth, but everyone was confused.

They looked at each other blankly, completely unaware of what Cao Shuo was talking about.

"And the seasons, the hours." Cao Shuo continued: "Twelve hours a day, changed to twenty-four hours a day. Spring, summer, autumn and winter are each three months, and while following the lunar calendar, we also have a Wei calendar. Every four years, take or subtract one day from January to adjust the length of the year. There is also the era, which no longer follows the emperor's year name, but compiles the Eastern Yuan era, and from then on only the Eastern Yuan is used. ”

The reason why he proposed to use the Eastern Era was simply because he was unhappy with the Western Era.

The Western Era used 2,000 years later came from the West and was not unique to the Central Plains.

Because it has the characteristics of being more convenient, it will be widely used in later generations.

The dethronement of the emperor was based on the chronological method of the first year of the emperor's accession to the throne, and the dating method similar to that of the Western Yuan was constructed, and it is likely that the Eastern Yuan rather than the Western Yuan will be used in the Central Plains after 2,000 years.

Cao Shuo had these thoughts, and Pang Tong and the others, who had never experienced the benefits of the Western Era, certainly didn't know why they did it.

Pang Tong asked, "The lord plans to do this, and we don't see any use for it?" ”

"There's more." Cao Shuo said: "I like to use all kinds of colors, and I don't want to wear black every day to show honor. I became an emperor, and I had to decide how to match the color of my clothes every day. ”

subverted many of the rules left by Qin Shi Huang, and everyone was completely blinded by Cao Shuo.

They looked at each other one by one, and Chen Gong reminded: "Lord, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble if you change these." ”

"What's the trouble?" Cao Shuo said: "It's nothing more than a change in habits, I can't change it in one day or two, I will use it for one year or two years." If I can't change it if I leave it alone, I will enforce it. The formation of habits often starts with rules, and when Qin Shi Huang unified weights and measures, did not subvert the habits of various places? ”

"What the lord plans to do, we will do it." Sima Yi was the most eye-catching, and he catered to him and said: "If you feel embarrassed, I am willing to bear it!" ”
