Of course, now from Liu Xin's point of view, the reason why Yang Xiu was killed by Cao Cao was because his father Yang Biao was at odds with Cao Cao, because when Cao Cao had just welcomed Emperor Hui Han Xian, he had a conflict with Yang Biao, and Yang Biao, who was still a lieutenant at the time, was also dismissed and imprisoned, if it weren't for Yang Biao's friend Kong Rong to come out to rescue Yang Biao, I'm afraid Yang Biao would have been killed by Cao Cao with an excuse, so as Yang Biao's son, although Yang Xiu is talented and capable, he can't get Cao Cao's absolute trust after all, So prompted by the second reason, Cao Cao finally found an opportunity to kill Yang Xiu, and this second reason was that Yang Xiu participated in the heir dispute between Cao Cao's sons.

At that time, Cao Cao, who had become the prime minister and the king of Wei, was naturally infinitely beautiful and proud, but for Cao Cao, there was always one thing that bothered him, that is, Cao Cao was quite hesitant about his two sons, Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, who should be the heirs to inherit his title of King of Wei, after all, Cao Cao's field Cao Ang had died in Wancheng, and at this time, Mrs. Bian had not officially become his wife, nor did she become the later Empress Wuxuan, So theoretically, Cao Pi, who can be the eldest son, is just a concubine, and Cao Zhi is the same, so in terms of etiquette, Cao Cao can either appoint Cao Pi or Cao Zhi as his heir at that time.

And at that time, Cao Cao's most beloved son Cao Chong had passed away, so Cao Cao preferred Cao Zhi even more, because Cao Zhi Cao Zijian was talented and was a famous writer in Chinese history, although Cao Pi's attainments in literature were also considerable, but in terms of literary talent, Cao Pi was more than good at books, and his attainments in poetry were still quite some distance away from his brother Cao Zhi, so as Cao Cao, who was excellent in his own writing, he may be more inclined to Cao Zhi in his heart from the beginning. Because Cao Cao has the uninhibited temperament of a poet, and Cao Zhi has the style of his father, Cao Cao naturally prefers Cao Zhi more.

And Liu Xin has also studied Cao Cao before that he had a very vague attitude towards the principle of his heir, and some people even think that Cao Cao originally wanted to train his young son Cao Chong as the heir, after all, Cao Chong is a rare genius, but unfortunately God is jealous of talent, Cao Chong died early.

And in the "Biography of Cao Zhi" that Liu Xin has watched, it is also said that Cao Zhi "is simple in sex and does not govern prestige." The horse costume is not gorgeous", and then said that Cao Zhi has been good at writing since he was a child, "more than ten years old, reciting poems, discussing hundreds of thousands of words, and being good at writing." Taizu tasted the text and said: "You are evil? Zhi knelt and said: "Words are spoken, written chapters, Gu Dang interview, who is Qianren?" ”

Although Cao Zhi's seven-step poem has a very great influence, but before that, when Cao Zhi was just completed in Tongquetai, Cao Cao asked his son to do Fu for Tongquetai, you must know that the difficulty of Fu is much more difficult than poetry, but Cao Zhi still completed the Fu in a very short period of time, and the quality is excellent, so Cao Cao also praised Cao Zhi, and after that, Cao Cao also showed his love for Cao Zhi, and often called Cao Zhi as a consultant, whether it was government affairs or military, Cao Zhi was able to give an answer that satisfied Cao Cao, so Cao Zhi at that time seemed closer to the position of the heir of the King of Wei than Cao Pi, and according to the records of relevant historical materials, Cao Zhi was almost named by Cao Cao several times and became the heir of the King of Wei.

Therefore, at that time, Cao Zhi was in the limelight in Cao Wei's forces, and he suppressed his brother Cao Pi for a while, and at this time, as the main personnel of Cao Zhi's think tank group, in addition to Ding Yi and Ding Xuan, Yang Xiu was the highest grade, and helped Cao Zhi many times, after all, Yang Xiu was still the main man under Cao Cao and knew a lot of news about Cao Cao, so Yang Xiu, as an "insider", played a big role in Cao Zhi's competition for the title of heir to King Wei.

It's just that the two staff members who were also very important to Cao Zhi at that time, Ding Yi and Ding Xuan, had a personal grudge with Cao Pi, and the cause of the incident was because Cao Cao felt that Ding Yi's father persuaded him to welcome the Han Emperor, so Cao Cao had today's achievements, so Cao Cao thought about marrying the Ding family, so he wanted to marry his daughter to Ding Yi, but Cao Pi at that time dissuaded that Ding Yi had a problem with his eyes, and Cao Cao agreed to Cao Pi's idea, so Ding Yi did not marry Princess Wei. Therefore, the two Ding brothers held a grudge and began to vigorously support Cao Zhi to seize the heir.

And Yang Xiu, as a cronie of Cao Cao's side, is the next heir of the Hongnong Yang family, so Yang Xiu must be the object of competition between Cao Zhi and Cao Pi, and Cao Zhi, as a world-famous talent, must be more in line with Yang Xiu's appetite, after all, Yang Xiu at that time was also famous for his talent, so Cao Zhi at this time with "special Cao Cao's favor" and took the initiative to show goodwill, Yang Xiu pushed the boat to join Cao Zhi's side, and participated in this cruel Cao Wei battle for succession.

However, although Cao Zhi and Cao Pi are superior in terms of literary talent, it should be said that Cao Pi is superior in terms of political and military talents, and the composition of the think tank group around Cao Zhi and Cao Pi is also different, Cao Pi's think tank is Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Wu Zhen, Zhu Shuo, and there are four people in the Book of Jin who are known as the four friends around Cao Pi, so among these four people, Sima Yi and Chen Qun's political talent and strategy should be said to be recognized as the best choice among the strategists and ministers in the Three Kingdoms period. There is no problem in ranking in the top three, and Wu Zhen is a scheming person with good literary talent, as for Zhu Shuo, it seems that he does not have a high sense of presence among these four people, and there are not many relevant records, but this person's official position at that time was a leading army, which is equivalent to the current position of political commissar, so Liu Xin feels that this person should not be a good character, so Cao Zhi's think tank can be described as star-studded, whether it is conspiracy or yang conspiracy, it can be handled, and whether it is in government affairs or military affairs, it can provide Cao Pi with a perfect plan.

And Cao Zhi's think tanks are all simple scribes, and there is no problem with dancing and writing, but Cao Zhi's think tanks have no political and military experience, and they are far inferior to Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Wu Zhen and others.

At that time, Wu Zhen was favored by Cao Pi for his outstanding literary talent, so when Wu Zhen was still the chief of the court, Yang Xiu and the Ding Yi brothers both wanted Cao Zhi to solve Wu Zhi in advance, and Cao Pi at that time was deeply troubled by Cao Zhi, but Cao Zhi, as Cao Cao's son, could not blatantly arrange officials to enter his own mansion to discuss matters, after all, the struggle between Cao Zhi and Cao Pi for the heir had intensified, so Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were trying to seize each other's handle to sue each other, so the careful Cao Pi used a carriage to scrap the rope, Hidden Wu Zhen entered the mansion to conspire countermeasures, and Yang Xiu, who learned the gossip, took advantage of his convenience as Cao Cao's subordinate Bo to sue Cao Pi for "forming a party for personal gain" to Cao Cao, but because Wu Zhen had already left Cao Pi's mansion at this time, he had to stop it, and Cao Pi, who knew about this matter at this time, was very worried, after all, if he was really caught, then the title of the heir of King Wei could only watch Cao Zhi take it, Therefore, Cao Pi specially sent someone to tell Wu Zhen about this matter, and Wu Zhen just said to Cao Pi: "What's the problem? Tomorrow, you can put the silk in the silk to transport it in the car to confuse it, Yang Xiu will definitely sue again, this complaint will be inferred, if there is no evidence, it is Yang Xiu who suffers."

Sure enough, Cao Pi followed Wu to his plan, Yang Xiu lived up to his expectations and found Cao Cao again and complained to Cao Cao about the matter, and Cao Cao at that time was also a little curious about whether his son had really done this kind of thing, so Cao Cao immediately sent someone to Cao Pi's mansion to check, but the result was naturally nothing, so Cao Cao, who was suspicious by nature, believed that Yang Xiu was deliberately framing Cao Pi, and because Yang Xiu was Cao Zhi's think tank, Cao Cao also thought that Cao Zhi at this time was in order to become his heir. began to unscrupulously want to find an opportunity to attack Cao Pi, so Cao Cao also became dissatisfied with Cao Zhi.

Then another thing happened, that is, because Cao Cao liked to lead his troops to fight in person, so when Cao Cao decided to drive the expedition again, literati like Yang Xiu and the two brothers of the Ding family naturally gave full play to their own advantages, and together with Cao Zhi, they came up with a fu praising Cao Cao, and on the day Cao Cao led the troops out of the city, Cao Zhi recited this fu to his father at the gate of the city, which made Cao Cao happy; On Cao Pi's side, Wu Zhen expected Cao Zhi to do this, so Wu Zhen offered advice to let Cao Pi "avoid its edge and move people with emotion", so Cao Pi bowed down in front of Cao Cao's horse and cried bitterly after Cao Zhi finished reciting the fu, and then under Cao Cao's inquiry, Cao Pi told him about his reluctance and worry about his father Cao Cao's leading troops this time, so Cao Cao, who was greatly moved, naturally took a look at Cao Pigao, and had some resistance to Cao Zhi's "personality cultism", thinking that Cao Zhi's fu was too much. fake big empty", so after this incident, Wu Zhen defeated Yang Xiu again, and Cao Cao's attitude towards Cao Zhi cooled down a lot.

The art of war is cloudy, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, and not being defeated in a hundred battles.

Liu Xin thinks that Wu Zhen can be said to know himself and his opponent in these two things, completely calculated Yang Xiu's thinking mode, and also used Yang Xiu's proud character to use Yang Xiu as a stepping stone, so Yang Xiu is famous, although he is talented, but unfortunately he is still not as good as Wu Zhen's old scheming, what he thinks and does is what he expected, so he was plotted, and his master Cao Zhi was suspicious, it is really hard to say, and after this, the reason why Cao Zhi will completely lose the possibility of the battle for succession, To a large extent, it is also because these two things are too big a blow to Cao Zhi.

After these two things, the balance of the battle for succession gradually shifted to Cao Pi's side, so Cao Pi, who took turns in feng shui, under the advice of Sima Yi and others, began to make efforts to win over Cao Cao's advisers and ministers, including Jia Xu and other Cao Wei ministers, plus Cao Zhi's "scholarly spirit" plus the bonus of "my father is Cao Cao", Cao Zhi's wild style often attacked, so "Cao Zhi acted willfully, did not encourage himself, and drank uncontrollably", so he was disliked by Cao Cao and began to gradually fall out of favor, At this time, Cao Zhi himself made a big news, that is, Cao Zhi was in Yecheng, the capital of Cao Wei at that time, riding a horse and galloping in the Chi Road, and this Chi Dao, but Cao Cao was the special road for the King of Wei, so Cao Zhi did this, it can be said that Cao Zhi has regarded himself as the King of Wei, so Cao Cao was furious, and the result was that "the bus order was sitting, and the princes were banned, and the plant pet was declining".

In the end, Cao Cao listened to Jia Xu's advice (here I had to blow a wave of Jia Xu, in the design killed Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang, the culprit of the love general Dian Wei and nephew Cao Anmin, and it was also a general in the name of "poisoner", but in the end he became Cao Cao's most trusted strategist, after all, such an important battle for the heir Cao Cao only discussed with Jia Xu, one shows that Cao Cao does have his own uniqueness in the use of talents, and the other also shows that Jia Xu is also extremely good in dealing with people), finally chose to establish Cao Pi as his heir, and Cao Zhi, who had completely lost power at this time, although Yang Xiu deliberately alienated Cao Zhi, but in one sentence to describe the relationship between Cao Zhi and Yang Xiu at this time, that is, "cut constantly, rationalize and mess", and Yang Xiu has been behind the scenes many times to guide Cao Zhi on how to answer Cao Cao's questions, which has the meaning of "hanging the curtain and listening to politics", so Yang Xiu is undoubtedly a scourge of "wanting to make a big news" in Cao Cao's view, so Cao Cao finally found an opportunity ("Romance of the Three Kingdoms") It is said that the "chicken ribs" that happened when Cao Cao attacked Hanzhong and were charged with "cholera military heart", but the actual reason is impossible to verify), directly killed Yang Xiu, but in the end Cao Cao still buried Yang Xiu.

Therefore, in general, the reason why Yang Xiu was killed by Cao Cao was that Yang Xiu did not save face for Cao Cao many times, which made Cao Cao a little embarrassed; The second is that Yang Xiu participated in the battle between Cao Cao's sons for the heir, and he was still very active, so Yang Xiu, who was on the wrong team, naturally couldn't escape death.

But in general, Yang Xiu's talent is still very good, after all, Yang Xiu helped Cao Zhi answer Cao Cao's questions many times, and the answer made Cao Cao very satisfied, plus Yang Xiu's merits as the main Bo under Cao Cao are also very good, but unfortunately there is still a lack of foresight in the struggle for succession, and it seems a little short-sighted, plus pig teammates like the two brothers of the Ding family, basically did not provide much help to Yang Xiu, so Yang Xiu and Sima Yi and others were naturally defeated in the battle...

But now Yang Xiu is in Liu Xin's eyes, but a small piece of fresh meat... Ahh

PS: I was a little depressed when I got up in the past two days, and sure enough, the author began to be hypocritical again.
