As Cao Cao's era passed, Cao Pi's era opened, the older generation of old ministers gradually retired, and the new forces gradually emerged

Guo Jia died, the body was transported back to Xuchang, Cao Pi came ten miles to welcome, helped the spirit and returned, treated Guo Jia with the courtesy of his son and nephew, and showed his admiration, admiration, and respect for the older generation of old ministers, and then named Guo Jia as the Marquis of Weiyang Pavilion, nicknamed - Zhenwu!

3,000 stones, posthumously awarded the position of the third prince, Guo Jia's son Guo Yi was crowned the prince Taixue, inherited Guo Jia's title, and his grace was unique for a while, Cao Pi's courtesy to Guo Jia made the former ministers all return to their hearts; Not only that, including Li Tong, Huang Zhong, and Zhang Jaw, who died in the Battle of Nanjun, all had rewards, and Li Yu's strategy directly killed them! There are also more than 500,000 people, but fortunately, because of his so-called immigration plan, there are no people in Nanjun or even within a hundred miles of Nanjun, and they are not implicated; There are two less "Five Tiger Generals", two less than the Nine Sons Good Generals, and there is also a vacancy in the four major generals, Cao Pi began to promote talents in the name of righteousness, although these are just a false title, but they represent his will and show his intentions; Lu Bin successfully occupied the position of the Five Tiger Generals with his bravery, and Xiahoudun also came to the top and occupied a place, and his current real power rank is the Great General of the Patriotic Nation! The vacancy of the four generals allowed Cao Ren to fill in and become an auxiliary general, which also made up for the embarrassment that the Cao family's relatives and noble forces did not have a seat among the four generals; One of the positions of the nine sons of the good generals was given to Duan Xuan, who had worked hard and worked hard and had been stationed in Xiliang and other places for many years, and the other was given to Wu Anguo; Due to the promotion of Xiahoudun and Cao Ren, which caused vacancies in the seats of the four generals in the front, rear, left and right, Gao Shun stood out from the nine good generals and occupied one position, and the other was won by Pang Tong, and the vacancy left by Gao Shun was topped by the Wen Ping who survived the Battle of Nanjun; In addition to the generals, the Wenchen side has different degrees of rewards, but most of them are false names such as titles, after all, everyone has credit for the victory in the battle of Nanjun!

However, Sima Yi still only has the false name of a Donggong Taifu, before the battle of Nanjun, Li Yu told Cao Pi his last words that once he died, Sima Yi must be killed, and now that he is not dead, then Sima Yi's usage will be changed!

Cao Cao's determination of Sima Yi is to use him to restrain Li Yu, not that Cao Cao is not at ease with Li Yu but at ease with others, if someone comes to add a dragon robe, what should Li Yu do? His prestige among Cao Cao's army was completely uncontrollable even for Cao Cao, let alone Cao Pi; Cao Cao's meaning is to use Sima Yi and Li Yu to fight in the ring, give Li Yu a little stumbling block or something, and let him always stand firm against Li Yu, so as to announce that someone is always staring at him! Your Majesty is also watching you, don't make a small move; However, Cao Cao thought about two things wrong, first, he forgot Li Yu's character, he would not stop his steps, he wanted to fulfill his wish to unify the world, or to carry his unfulfilled wish to fight!

Whoever dares to stumble when he fights, it is estimated that he is not far from death, even if Li Yu himself does not make a move, these friends behind him will not let go of that person, so as a wise person, even if there is Cao Pi's order, Sima Yi will not do it, and he will not dare to do it; Second, he far underestimated Li Yu's influence on Cao Pi, and the funny thing is that as Cao Pi's father, he is not even as good as Li Yu's status in Cao Pi's mind, and in Cao Pi's heart, Li Yu is the father who single-handedly brought him up, educated him, cared for him, and loved him; It is precisely because of this idea that Cao Pi has never thought about how Li Yu is, but recently these strategists under him have said either explicitly or implicitly that even Li Yu's friends Cheng Yu and Xun Yu also said that Li Huaide is too hard to become the second Guo Jia and so on; Cao Pi was very angry in his heart, what is his relationship with Li Yu? Shall you be allowed to stir up? It was he who taught himself to write and read, and he comforted himself when he was wronged, if he hadn't always supported himself, could he have become an emperor?

Even if you don't talk about feelings, as an emperor, don't you even have the courage to tolerate people? The troubled times are not over, how can you destroy the city wall? I really don't know what's going on in these people's heads?

'''''''''''''''''''''''''''' Cao Pi was upset, so he invited Sima Yi to ask: "Zhongda! You have also heard some rumors circulating in the court recently, how do you feel? Kindness? ”

Compared with Cao Cao, Cao Pi may be much inferior, but he should not be underestimated, the way of grace and power, the wisdom of employing people is very good, and he is also diligent in government and politics all day long, diligent and motivated, and he has more and more imperial demeanor in the accumulation of more and more majesty; How could Sima Yi not know about the rumors in the court? But he didn't dare to talk nonsense about Li Yu, that guy's disciples and protégés were all in high positions, these people accounted for almost half of the court, and the remaining half were either his friends or relatives, the second person in the Wei Kingdom!

Based on heavy considerations, Sima Yi pretended to be confused and knelt on the ground: "The minister doesn't know!" I hope Your Majesty will make it clear! ”

"I don't know?" , Cao Pi sneered and shook his head, and sighed: "Don't you say that I'll tell you, someone told me that my father is too hard and should rest, otherwise he will be the next Guo Taishi!" Hum! It's not a hint that I'm a master of merit, what do you think? ”

What do you think? How dare Sima Yi talk nonsense? Silent, he didn't know why he was treated so unfairly, even people like Hua Xin Dong Zhao who were inferior to themselves could become important ministers of the imperial court, and he was always suppressed, whether it was Lao Situ Jiaxu or Xun Yu, Tian Feng and others; "Why don't you speak?" , Cao Pi frowned and was a little dissatisfied: "I'm looking for you to solve problems, but I'm not sitting with you!" Zhongda! You are a wizard, no one denies this, and I am no exception, if you have anything to say, just say it! I don't blame you! ”

Sima Yi's heart trembled, and then he sorted out his thoughts and said, "These so-called worries are just nonsense! No matter how famous Taiwei Li is, he will never rebel against His Majesty, he is loyal to the Wei State!

All everyone fears is that His Majesty will be suspicious of him! After the Battle of Nanjun, the foundation of Wu and Shu was lost, especially the Wu State was already a remnant of amorous leaves, and it was only a matter of time before he was destroyed; But after destroying him, Taiwei Li's reputation will rise to a higher level, but the battle of Wu State must be destroyed by Taiwei Li, others can't successfully destroy him in a short time, and if they can't be killed at once, it will easily cause signs of resurgence; In the final analysis, it is a matter of reputation, in fact, Your Majesty or others have thought too much, now the actual military power of our army is in the hands of those generals, there are many people in the army, there are many people in the army, they will not do anything to harm Your Majesty, Taiwei Li is just a strategist"

Cao Pi looked at Sima Yi as if he was distinguishing between the truth and falsehood in his words, and said after a while: "The fall of the Wu State is imminent, what about the Shu State?" ”

Sima Yi: "Shu still has some capital, mainly because they occupy Hanzhong, Yizhou occupies a natural geographical advantage, and they can't pose a threat to them in a short period of time, with the wisdom of Li Taiwei, after he destroyed the Wu State, he will definitely suggest that His Majesty cultivate and recuperate, and work hard, twenty years may not be needed, Shu will destroy itself, and he himself is estimated to resign and be idle at home"

"After all, I'm still full of doubts about being the emperor!" Cao Pi was angry on the one hand and sighed on the other, and thought for a while: "I want to pardon the teacher as the prime minister, the emperor, to show my heart, what do you think?" ”

"The emperor is just a fictitious title, I think Taiwei Li will gladly accept it, and he will definitely not accept the position of prime minister, the former emperor used to be the prime minister", Sima Yi said in a low voice; Cao Pi's face changed, his eyes glared at Sima Yi fiercely, and he suddenly smiled: "Zhongda! I'm going to let you go to your Father's side to do things, what do you think? ”

Sima Yi knelt down: "Minister, obey Your Majesty's orders!" Sima Yi knew in his heart that in the face of suppression from all sides, if he could no longer show his talent, he would never have a chance in the future, he had to seize the opportunity!

"Excellent! Then go with a decree! I will entitle you to join the army"

Not long after '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' sent Sima Yi away, the fine work of the Shu State side came to report that Liu Bei, the emperor of Shu, had died! Zhuge Liang, the left prime minister of Shu, and Xu Shu, the right prime minister, supported Liu Chan, who was only eleven or twelve years old, to succeed him and become the second emperor of Shu, and mobilized military horses to block the two gateways of Hanzhong and Bajun

Not long after this news came out, news also came from the Eastern Wu side, and the Metropolitan Governor Zhou Yu was defeated and killed himself, and Wu lost a lot of pillars! Xiahou Yuan and Zhang Zhaoce in the Wujun and Danyang areas succeeded in countering the plan, and the major families rose up, causing turmoil; Cheng Pu, the military governor of Dongwu Town, was intercepted and killed by Wei Yan and Xu Huang in Huiji County, and the two sides confronted each other for a long time, Xiahoudun and Xu Rong marched together to carry out a strategic threat to the capital of Wu, and Sun Quan, the lord of Wu, ordered to shrink his forces and hold on to Lingyang; In addition, Gao Shun in Hanzhong and Zhang Ren of the Shu army had a fierce battle, and the victory and defeat were not yet decided, but Cao Ren's soldiers won the Yongliang two states without blood, and the land area of Wei increased a lot; Pile by pile, piece by piece, all are happy events, Cao Pi is crazy with happiness, although he is not the maker of strategy, although he is only responsible for opening his mouth to explain the work of his subordinates, but there will be his credit in the history books, and it is the thickest one!
