Chapter 289: The Conspiracy to Marry a Daughter

Any imperial court, especially a court like Cao Cao, can not be as thorough as Liu Yi, and he can't be as absolute as Liu Yi to have absolute power over the entire court.

There is a big difference between the New Han Dynasty and Cao Cao's court.

The New Han Dynasty was established by Liu Yi with one hand and one foot, and every courtier in the court, especially those who are now in power. Each one of them was recruited by Liu Yi. They have the same philosophy as Liu Yi and have the same goal. Most importantly, they are absolutely loyal to Lew. Because, almost all of them were loyal to Liu Yi before they did things for the imperial court. Later, the civil and military forces who defected to the New Han Dynasty also had to be loyal to Liu Yi before they would do anything for the court.

With the development of the New Han Dynasty, Liu Yi combined some models and experiences of later generations to form ruling institutions, and came up with a set of imperial court and government structures suitable for the current situation of the New Han Dynasty. This makes the civil and military officials who are now serving the court of the New Han Dynasty, they all have a very clear concept, knowing that the New Han Dynasty, named Shaodi as the emperor, is really the fact that Liu Yi has the final say, and they also feel that only in this way can it be considered reasonable, without Liu Yi, where will there be the New Han Dynasty? Under the rule of the new system, the new Han dynasty was united and prosperous.

Under Liu Yi's absolute power, no matter what Liu Yi does, he will not shake the foundation of the imperial court, and there will be no subjects in the court who will be dissatisfied with Liu Yi. At least, the civil and military forces in the DPRK would never dare to say anything about Liu Yi. Unless Liu Yi is really excessive, he is more mediocre than the famous faint kings of the past dynasties.

However, Cao Cao's court. There are many fundamental differences from the New Han Dynasty. Although, Cao Cao's court can also be said to have been established by Cao Cao with one hand and one foot. But. When Cao Cao established the imperial court, he did not have Liu Yi's far beyond contemporary vision and some experience of later generations.

What is the institution of the imperial court, Cao Cao cannot be like Liu Yi, and he can suddenly have an innovation that is more suitable for the status quo. In this way, he could only establish the imperial court according to the imperial court mechanism of the previous dynasty. And Cao Cao also wanted the court he established to be justified and able to form a large-scale influence all of a sudden. It can be recognized by the people of the world. He had to accommodate some of the courtiers of the previous dynasty and invite them to be courtiers.

Of course, Cao Cao also wanted to avoid being blamed by the world. accuses him of being Dong Zhuo's second generation, so, on the surface, he has to be fair. Other words. Some inconsequential things in the court. The synopsis was delegated to some courtiers. He himself can only regard himself as a prime minister, usually in the court, although it is his family's words, but it is undeniable that many of the former ministers and old ministers he invited back as courtiers are directly loyal to the royal family. It was not that he obeyed Cao Cao's words.

At that time, when Cao Cao established the imperial court. It is already much behind the New Han Dynasty. A court does need talents from all walks of life to maintain and develop. Otherwise, if he is said to be the imperial court, but he Cao Cao is alone, then, who will obey him and who will recognize the legitimacy of his imperial court?

Therefore, in Cao Cao's court, there have always been some courtiers who disagree with Cao Cao's politics. Even, there are many upright courtiers who are truly loyal to the royal Liu family. has been playing against Cao Cao openly and secretly.

Cao Cao can naturally kill those courtiers who do not obey him, but Cao Cao is thirsty for talent, if he kills those courtiers who do not agree with his political views and do not obey him, then in the future, who will come to him Cao Cao?

In this way, it is inevitable that many unstable factors have been buried for Cao Cao's court.

Indeed, as in historical events, some courtiers loyal to the Han family in the court, seeing that Cao Cao was not in Xudu, led the army to fight, but even the opportunity of defeat, secretly united, lured Emperor Xian to conspire with them, and wanted to kill Cao Cao.

Of course, among them, some courtiers may not be really loyal to the Han family, probably because of the relationship of interests, seeing that there is an opportunity, it is also possible to replace Cao Cao.

Anyway, Cao Cao's control of his court could not be as complete as Liu Yi's control of the New Han Dynasty. In addition, even in terms of prestige among the people of their respective courts, Cao Cao was far less prestige than Liu Yi among the people of the New Han Dynasty.

It can be said that Liu Yi is close to the people and it is easier to win the love of the people, but as for Cao Cao, the people are more afraid of Cao Cao than they support him.

It was in the time of Cao Cao's struggle with the New Han Dynasty for Jingzhou this time, as well as this time to plot against Liu Yi. Because Cao Cao himself was not often in Luoyang, this made some courtiers seem to see a hope of killing Cao Cao.

Many of these courtiers were some old ministers of the previous dynasty, but their thinking did not make any progress. If they want to deal with an important minister like Cao Cao, they are nothing more than like before, they must first get in touch with the emperor, obtain the emperor's approval, and then unite some courtiers to discuss and discuss to see how they can kill Cao Cao. They naively believed that as long as Cao Cao was killed, they could support Emperor Xian, and then they would divide the power of the imperial court, and then the imperial court would have the final say and they could obtain the power and benefits they wanted.

Anyway, Liu Yi has already seen through these, so after Liu Yi established the New Han Dynasty, he never threw an olive branch to the old ministers of the original dynasty, and all of them used those who were really talented and could be loyal to their subjects.

This, discussed and discussed, but it was difficult to make a decision, just like before, Liu Bei also participated in the preparation of the incident of uniting the ministers to eradicate Cao Cao. Their secret was soon known to Cao Cao.

This time, as soon as Cao Cao returned to the court and learned that those old ministers in the court were not honest, and they actually used guò beauty to confuse Emperor Xian and prepare to deal with him, Cao Cao was really angry.

After a while, he had only been away from the court for a short time, and Emperor Xian seemed to have really resisted and alienated him, and he was a child at the beginning, but now he dared to contradict him. Wouldn't this annoy Cao Cao?

Cao Cao was furious, and blood splattered three feet. On that day, the court killed the courtiers who impeached him and shouted the most.

This time, everyone was frightened. Everyone was trembling. Emperor Xian no longer dared to disobey Cao Cao's intentions.

As a result, in just two or three days, the government and the opposition were shaken. Cao Cao killed dozens of courtiers, raided their homes and exterminated their clans, and the number of people implicated reached more than 1,000.

However, Cao Cao saw that as Emperor Xian grew up, this unstable factor became more and more unstable. And the most important thing is that Cao Cao is actually domineering. In charge of the imperial court, but, nominally. But he did not dare to openly abolish the emperor and claim himself emperor. Because he saw very clearly that the current Han Dynasty, the entire Han people, was very clear about the Han family. still has inseparable feelings. Especially. There is also a situation that can represent the orthodoxy of the Han dynasty in the new Han Dynasty. If he Cao Cao dares to abolish the emperor and claim the emperor, then, in the next moment, he Cao Cao will inevitably suffer from the condemnation of the whole world, just like Yuan Shu at the beginning, and was regarded as a thief and a thief by the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, Cao Cao had to destroy the New Han Dynasty. Otherwise, he must need a name to control the imperial court. I definitely don't dare to abolish the emperor.

So. Cao Cao wanted to abolish the emperor and claim himself emperor, but he didn't dare.

But now, Emperor Xian seems to have a dislike for him, and Cao Cao is afraid that one day, Emperor Xian will really be out of his control.

Often, there is turmoil, all because of the instigation of those long-haired women, from this incident, Cao Cao saw the necessity of purging those ill-intentioned women around Emperor Xian. However, as an emperor, there must be women by his side, and there must not be too few.

In order to make it easier for him to control Emperor Zhan, and in order not to let those courtiers have a chance to take advantage of it, Cao Cao decided to send his three adult daughters to the palace as much as possible, so that he could monitor and control Emperor Zhan. Cao Cao has always had this kind of thought, but he has been busy with the war and has not been able to implement it. Just because of such an negligence and negligence, it just let people take advantage of the loophole, which Cao Cao can't allow.

Moreover, Cao Cao also had other plans. That is, I hope that after my daughter marries Emperor Xian, she will give birth to a son, and then she can crown her daughter as the queen, so that her daughter can completely control the palace for him, and there will be no more opportunities for people to take advantage of it. And, when necessary, Cao Cao can completely abolish the emperor. Set up his grandson as the emperor, so that it will be more convenient for Cao Cao to control the court.

Hehe, a child, is much easier to control than an adult.

Cao Cao was now worried about the future of his court because he lost the battle, and he didn't want to worry about the internal affairs of the court anymore, so he planned to cut through the chaos quickly and solve these things as much as possible.

It is precisely because Cao Cao has a more long-term consideration that he must marry his own daughter to Emperor Xian, so that the final benefit will fall on his Cao family. Also, a woman who marries an emperor must not be an ordinary woman, at least, she must convince the people of the world.

For example, if you marry a daughter who is not too outstanding to be an emperor, then it will definitely make people all over the world make fun of it, thinking that where is an ordinary woman worthy of the emperor?

However, fortunately, Cao Cao asked himself, the three daughters of his family who can go out of the cabinet, in terms of appearance and talent, will definitely not lose to any woman.

Three daughters, all of them are naturally beautiful, and the country is beautiful.

The eldest daughter, Cao Xian, is calm by nature, lonely and beautiful, but she listens to Cao Cao's words the most, has a sense of responsibility, has a certain desire to only strength, and has been able to take responsibility since she was a child. If she marries into the palace, even if she is not crowned queen in the end, she can still control the palace properly.

The second daughter, Cao Jie, is Cao Cao's most beloved daughter, she has been cute and beautiful since she was a child, and she is ice and snow smart, with the best talent, and she has Cao Cao's heart the most. Originally, Cao Cao didn't plan to send her to the palace, but after thinking about it, it seems that Cao Jie is more suitable than Cao Xian, because Cao Jie has a natural preciousness, compared to Cao Xian, who is a little lonely, Cao Jie is more affinity, and more in line with the motherly image of the mother of a country. Moreover, Cao Cao also believes that what is the most glorious thing for a woman? That is the moment when she marries into the palace, becomes the imperial concubine, and becomes the queen, it should be the moment when a woman is the most glorious and proud. Her own woman can become a queen and be glorious herself. Therefore, Cao Cao decided that the second daughter had to be sent to the palace.

Cao Hua is also a beautiful and lovely daughter. However, there is no talent of Cao Jie, and there is a little more willfulness and rudeness of the eldest lady, but she is also naïve. Cao Cao didn't like this daughter very much, however, he considered it. There is such a daughter who likes to practice martial arts since she was a child and was sent to the palace together, but it can deter those palace concubines in the palace, and let the palace favor the three daughters of the Cao family alone. Strive to give birth to a prince as soon as possible, so that Cao Cao's plan will be completed.

It's just that Cao Cao seems to be able to see that his daughter seems to be a little resistant to such a thing, especially the third daughter Cao Hua.

The eldest daughter, Cao Xian, didn't have much of a problem. She may not want to, but she will never disobey Cao Cao's intentions, Cao Cao said that one is one. Say two, two.

Therefore, Cao Cao told his wives to persuade Cao Xian, and then Cao Xian would keep an eye on Cao Jie and Cao Hua. Especially let her do Cao Jie's ideological work. Let your three daughters happily marry into the palace.

On this day, it was the time for Cao Xian and some aunts to persuade Cao Jie.

Cao Jie said to Liu Yi: "Brother Liu Yi, within two days at the earliest, and only three days at the latest, Daddy will definitely send our sisters into the palace, what should I do?" Can your injuries heal so quickly? People are worried. ”

"Hmm...... You don't have to worry about this. In fact. Even if you want to leave now, you can. It's just that now, we have to think about how to leave your Cao family and how to escape from Xudu. Of course, there are a few things we have to do before that. When Liu Yi heard that time was so urgent, he knew that he had no choice, and he had to immediately recover his Yuanyang True Qi.

"Oh? It's true? Can we go now? What are we going to do? Cao Jie looked up at Liu Yi with a little surprise, and Cao Hua, who was sitting on Liu Yi's lap together, also looked at Liu Yi with a little expectation, looking forward to Liu Yi's next words.

"This ......" Liu Yi was not easy to say for a while.

After thinking about it, Liu Yi said to the two girls with a cheeky face: "Two sisters, you all know my Liu Yi's true identity now, so you should know that my Liu Yi's martial arts are invincible in the world, right?" ”

"I know, people used to see you defeat Lu Bu in the ring and win the princess of Wannian, and it was at that time that people liked you and never forgot you."

"What? Oh my God, how old were you then, sister? Do you know how to like men? Cao Hua looked at Cao Jie in surprise.

"Uh, don't say anything else." Liu Yi pinched Cao Hua's waist skills, so that she didn't dare to talk nonsense, Liu Yi said: "So, you see, do I look like an invincible person now?" ”

"This ......" The two women glanced at each other, then at Liu Yi, and shook their heads unnaturally.

"Alas, tell you the truth, the reason why I fell into the Yellow River this time is because of a group of generals under Yuan Shao's account, plus a group of masters sent by your father, including Xu Huang, Zhang He, Xiahou brothers, and a large number of unknown mysterious masters, and a person you can't believe when you hear it, Zuo Ci. These people attacked me together, and there were countless Yuan Shao's military horses. In this way, I will be seriously injured and fall into the Yellow River. Liu Yi sighed and said: "Although they didn't kill me Liu Yi, they made me hurt my vitality a lot, and now, there is not much internal force and true qi left in my body, and there is not one in ten." Now, even Sister Hua'er can almost fight with me. ”

"Huh? So, what to do? Both women looked at Liu Yi with a little concern.

"Don't worry, I'm just that my internal strength has been lost too much, and I haven't been able to recover it for a while, if I recover my internal strength, I can take you away at any time, your father's current military horse, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop me."

"Then you're recovering from it." Cao Hua said a little anxiously.

"Hehe, fool, you haven't really become a second-rate or more general, and you haven't really felt the internal force, do you think that the internal force can be restored if you say that you can restore it? Generally, if a first-class military general, if he has experienced a major battle, and the internal force and true qi in his body are almost consumed, it is estimated that within ten days and a half months, he will not be able to recover, and even, some people, it will take a year or two to recover. Liu Yi nodded Cao Hua's incense forehead and said.

"It's going to take so long? So, what to do? ”

"If it is an ordinary person, there may be no way, it must take time, and it will take time to practice slowly to recover, but I, Liu Yi, have a unique method, which can restore the true qi of internal strength in a short period of time." Liu Yi looked at the two women and said, "However, this one has to be done with me." ”

"There's a way? That's great, let's say, how do you want our sisters to cooperate? "Cao Hua is anxious and eager to try.

"Brother Liu Yi, tell me quickly, what do you want us to do?" Cao Jie also urged Liu Yikuai to say.

"Hehe, this, actually, it's actually just that you can have a good time with me."

"What?"

The expressions of the two girls at this moment were a little shocked, a little shy, and a little confused. They really have never heard of it, and they can use guò to restore their internal strength in such a shameful way. Of course, they didn't ask too much, and at the moment they were more shy than doubtful in their hearts. In fact, apart from Cao Hua or half-understanding, Cao Jie didn't understand the concept of internal force at all.

"Well, if my estimation is correct, after being with you two sisters, I should be able to recover half of my internal strength. This is a conservative estimate. ”

"Only half?" Both women looked a little disappointed.

"Heh, half, it's enough for me Liu Yi."

"So, does that mean that the more you do that with more women, the more your internal strength will be restored?" Cao Hua questioned.

"Theoretically, that's true."

"Well, why don't you call those maids from other people?" Cao Jie subconsciously said. (To be continued......)
