Chapter 762: Three Words to Become King
When Wang Xu traveled in Xiliang and experienced the current situation of Xiliang during this time, major events also happened in the world one after another.
On the eighth day of June in 206 A.D., Sun Jian, who was in the southeast of China, finally held the decree of the Son of Heaven on this day, ascended the altar to worship the sky, and became the king.
Although Sun Jian also knew that this so-called canonization was just a little trick of Cao Cao, but this was a conspiracy, and the benefits outweighed the disadvantages for Cao Cao and Sun Jian, and they couldn't wait, which could be described as a win-win situation, and of course there would be no other choice.
After the heavy and grand ceremony, Sun Jian officially ascended the throne of Wu, known as the State of Wu in history.
Subsequently, Sun Jian began to seal the ministers, those meritorious ministers who followed him, and the capable ministers successively made marquis and worship the generals, and the whole country celebrated for three days.
For a time, Wu gathered a strong cohesion, unprecedentedly united, and after a strong push, set up the goal of fighting for hegemony in the world.
The entire state of Wu then began to carry out vigorous reforms, cultivating military equipment externally, cultivating political ethics internally, and making great efforts to govern the country.
Just over half a month later, that is, two days before Wang Xu separated from Xiliang and the mixed-race beauty.
The ministers of the DPRK and China, mainly Xi Zhicai, Jia Xu, Chen Qun, Wang Lang, Zhong Xuan, Hua Xin and others, played the Son of Heaven, did their best to speak of Cao Cao's merits, admonished him to restore the post of prime minister, and promoted the general Cao Cao to prime minister, with full authority to control military and political affairs.
In fact, the military and political power has always been in the hands of Cao Cao, but in the past, many times in the past, it was controlled behind the scenes, and the three princes and nine secretaries were nominally responsible, but in fact, he said one, and these ministers did not dare to say two. And those key positions. Often, it was the people he relied on.
But that's a lot of inconvenience after all. Cao Cao is not justified after all.
Now, these courtiers have put it forward, although Liu Xie, the son of heaven, is unwilling, but he is alone, and he can only play it helplessly.
But only ten days after this incident, the uneasiness in the heart of Liu Xie, the son of heaven, had not dissipated, and another piece of music was presented to the court, giving him the final blow.
Dozens of civil and military forces in real power jointly played. Yan Wu State Sun Jianjin King, Chu State New King Yili, Cao Cao is always in charge of the world, assisting the Son of Heaven, in the name, but not as good as the two feudal lords, not enough to power the world, not enough to revitalize the dynasty, not enough to prosper the Han!
At the same time, it was said that the state of Chu was deeply favored by the emperor. But since the establishment of the Chu State, no tax has been paid. also did not obey the arrangements of the imperial court, and the king of Chu never met the Son of Heaven according to the ancient rites, and even the new king succeeded to the throne, but only played a letter, completely ignoring the authority of the Son of Heaven, and the evil intentions were clearly exposed, which was a great disaster.
Moreover, Sun Jian of Wu State had just received the emperor's favor and entered the title of King of Wu, but he still refused to pay tribute and taxes according to the law, and Sun Jian, the king of Wu, did not come to Beijing to see him, and he also had a heart of disobedience.
In view of this, I hope to give the prime minister Cao Cao the throne as king, so as to deter Wu and Chu and stabilize the world!
But this book, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, including the Son of Heaven Liu Xie, who still can't understand it?
Paying taxes and paying tribute?
More than a decade ago, princes everywhere stopped paying tribute to the royal family.
Morning to the Son of Heaven?
Today, who dares to go to Beijing to meet you? Who will come to Beijing to see you?
Disobedient to the control of the Son of Heaven?
Today, how many troops and horses can be mobilized by the Son of Heaven? The Son of Heaven is holding the jade seal, no matter what Cao Cao and the ministers say, he is responsible for stamping a seal!
In this court discussion, the Son of Heaven was in tears and refused to stamp the jade seal for a long time, but he counted the royal family's kindness to various wealthy families over the years.
Cao Cao was worried that the excessive reaction of the Son of Heaven would cause some old ministers to waver in their hearts, and they were even more reluctant to force the palace in public and tell the truth, so he politely refused this proposal.
Since then, the court discussion has dispersed, and Liu Xie, the son of heaven, returned to the harem, wept bitterly, drank until he got drunk, angrily scolded Cao Cao for his rebellion, and vented his resentment.
Subsequently, under the construction of Empress Fushou, Liu Xie was unwilling to sit still and wanted to make a final struggle.
First contacted Queen Fu's father, the captain of the Tun cavalry, but he didn't think that although he had the intention to be a thief after learning about it, he couldn't act rashly, and he didn't agree for a long time, but he sighed with the two of them.
After that, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, was unwilling, and found Dong Cheng, the general of the chariot cavalry, and conspired with him to destroy Cao.
Dong Cheng was quite ambitious, and readily agreed, holding the blood edict of the Son of Heaven to quickly take action, and made an appointment with Changshui Lieutenant Chongji, Yilang Wu Shuo, Xiaocai Lieutenant and General Wang Ziyi, Zhaoxin General Wu Zilan, Taizhong Doctor Kong Rong and others to discuss the plan.
Originally, these people were still quite powerful in Kyoto.
Although Dong Cheng's chariot cavalry general was nominal and had no rights over the main army, according to the Han system, he still had his own general's mansion after all, and also supported an elite army belonging to him, and the cantonment point was near Kyoto.
Although today's eight captains are far less powerful than in the early years, they have left the main force system and become the guards guarding Kyoto, but after all, there are still many people and horses, and they are also stationed near Kyoto.
As for Taizhong Doctor Kong Rong, in fact, he is also a military attaché, Guangluxun, one of the nine kings of the imperial court, controls Yu Linlang, Hu Benlang and other subordinates, and is an elite forbidden army, and Taizhong Doctor is an important minister under Guangluxun, so Kong Rong also controls a Hu Benlang.
If they really let them succeed, maybe they can really succeed, because now that Cao Cao's overall situation has been decided, it is inevitable that there will be some carelessness in his heart, his main army is scattered on all sides, and there are not many troops in Kyoto, and these people will join forces, which is equivalent to mobilizing nearly half of the people in Kyoto.
So under Cao Cao's carelessness, maybe there is really a possibility of a reversal.
It's a pity, the premise is that Cao Cao is careless and doesn't know!
Liu Xie, the son of heaven, who was known as Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty in history, although he had a lot of ideas when he grew up, he always had the intention to seize power and revitalize the Han family, and he had been dealing with Cao Cao for many years, but he finally lost to current affairs and the terminally ill Han.
He did not have the innate conditions of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, so he secretly strengthened himself and finally succeeded in seizing power.
He didn't have the forbearance of Emperor Shunzhi, and he didn't have a queen mother like Emperor Shunzhi to lay a foundation for him, but he was forced into a desperate situation.
He does not have the shrewdness and courage of Emperor Kangxi, because he has not received such excellent training, he has been running around since he was a child, wandering around, wanting to learn but unable to learn, and being influenced by others.
In the last years of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xie, the only one who had the heart to be a good emperor, was defeated by fate.
He didn't know how to keep things secret! He didn't know what method to use to deal with a powerful minister like Cao Cao! He doesn't know how to call on and rely on the loyal Han people in the world! Always ignorant, thinking that one is one out, relying on this today, relying on that tomorrow, no plan, no method, no choice!
Until the imperial power was completely lost, even those who were originally loyal to the Han family felt that the Han spirit was exhausted, and they completely lost their trust and support for the imperial family.
This time, he also didn't think of it, how could he let Dong Cheng enter the palace to discuss secretly?
How can such a major matter be discussed in the palace?
The palace is controlled by Cao Cao!
Their secret discussion soon reached Cao Cao's ears from the mouths of the palace ladies and guards.
When Cao Cao put away his carelessness and went to investigate seriously, he had lost all opportunities.
It only took three days for the general content and movement of their secret discussion to be deduced by Cao Cao.
In an instant, Kyoto shook!
Cao Cao was furious, and used thunderous means to strike first, and before they knew it, he entered his home, arrested them all, and kept them under strict control outside.
After the severe torture of many participants, the blood edict soon appeared in front of Cao Cao's eyes.
Without hesitation, without waiting, Cao Cao, who had the evidence in hand, immediately ordered to be strangled in the name of Dong Cheng, Kong Rong and others' demonic words, blinding the public, and causing chaos to the dynasty.
Except for Kong Rong, who was too famous and had to be respected by Cao Cao, so that his family escaped by luck, the rest of the people all wiped out the three clans.
Dong Cheng's daughter was originally a concubine in the harem of the Son of Heaven and was a nobleman, but she was also affected by Zhulian and died of poisoned wine.
Queen Fu also failed to escape, and she interfered in politics in the harem, went into the slander pit to kill the heroes, and caused chaos in the world in the name of death!
On the contrary, it was her father who was able to spared the Fu family because he did not act and did not agree to the request of the Son of Heaven, but after Fu Wan, he also handed over the official seal, returned home and lived alone, panicked all day long, and died of illness half a month later.
In fact, Cao Cao didn't want to kill him, but there was no way, there was no crime after the ambush, and killing him would set off bigger waves.
As for the crimes committed by Queen Fu, the Fu family cannot be implicated, because the Fu family itself did not participate, if Queen Fu is crowned with the crime of destroying the three clans, then the first family is the royal family, in this era, if a woman marries, then the husband's family she marries into is the first family, and it is the family!
Empress Fu married the Son of Heaven, so the royal Liu family is the family, and Cao Cao will not dare to come out with the crime of destroying the three clans.
After this incident, the majesty of the royal family fell to the bottom, and even some civil and military forces who were still swaying in their hearts gradually showed their direction.
After all, who would dare to fight to the death for such a son of heaven who lacks wisdom?
The person who has lost power is not terrible, but what is terrible is what this person does cannot convince the people under his command, and people can't see hope!
On the fifth day after the incident, the ministers played again, imploring the Son of Heaven to issue an edict and make Prime Minister Cao Cao king.
This time, the Son of Heaven had no choice, holding back tears, and his expression was numb.
But Cao Cao may have made some difficult decisions because of what happened before, so he resigned again!
It wasn't until five days later that the ministers who knew their hearts played in unison again, and knelt down in the palace, begging them to take the throne, and Cao Cao pushed the boat down the river and agreed.
At this point, Cao Cao ascended to the throne and became the king, taking Jizhou as the feudal country, establishing the country name Wei, and adding nine tins, ranking among the princes!
Although the fief of Wei is only the land of Jizhou, but today's capital is also set in Yecheng, Jizhou, this kind of situation where the emperor of the Son of Heaven is located in the capital of the feudal kingdom is unprecedented, and it has also lost the face of the royal family.
After many people added fuel to the fire, the world only knew Wei, Wu, and Chu, but there was no longer the name of the Great Han...... (To be continued......)
