"It's not the end, it's just the beginning ......"

The resentment in the eyes of the princess of Nanshan is reminiscent of the letter of the poisonous snake, and a wisp of blood oozes from the corner of her mouth, and the delicate red lips correspond to the brilliance, which is extremely bewitching.

Guo Shao stared at her eyes, and with the strength of his hand, he twisted the horizontal knife that had been stabbed into her stomach, and he seemed to hear the sound of broken intestines.

The princess's face, which had once been as white as paper, had been twisted terribly, her teeth were clenched, her pupils gradually dilated, and she slowly lost her luster.

"Captain Guo! What are you doing, who told you to kill her?! ”

The person who roared was Guo Shao's cousin, Guo Peng, the governor of the Annan Metropolitan Prefecture, who stretched out a hand, as if he wanted to stop Guo Shao, but it was too late.

The princess stared at her eyes and slumped limply in a pool of blood. Guo Shao looked at her dead eyes in a daze, chewing on the sentence: This is not the end, just the beginning.

No, it's over! Today, in June of the 11th year of the Great Qian Dynasty, the war between the Dynasty and the Nanshan Kingdom has ended! The king wiped out all their regular armies and captured their fortresses, capitals, and palaces. Now their monarch was kneeling at the feet of the conqueror, trembling with the jade seal in his hands.

Even this famous princess was shattered and turned into a cold corpse.

"Alas, I shouldn't have let you play the striker......" The cousin stared at the princess's half-exposed plump breasts, and said indignantly, "You can show mercy to those eunuchs outside, but you come in and stab the princess to death, do you have a grudge against women?" ”

Guo Shao's face was pale, he had a dark disease, and sometimes he had asthma attacks.

At this time, he suddenly felt tightness in his chest, suffocation, and showed signs of illness, so he hurriedly took a deep breath to stabilize his breath. After a while, he said slowly: "After we came in, the king knelt in the hall with the jade seal in his hand, and was respectful; And this princess sat in front of the case, without any remorse. Moreover, she wore a blue background with gold silk and a crown with a hanging, in order to exceed the system, and her disobedience to my emperor was clearly exposed, and the capital crime was unforgivable...... Therefore I will kill him. ”

"Neurotic!" The cousin scolded angrily, and then casually picked up the jade seal and the descending book from the king who was kneeling on the ground, and put them in his arms, "Brothers, go to the back and take a look, it is impossible for the king of Nanban to be just this one princess." ”

A bearded general next to him smiled: "I think Captain Guo has done this Cleopatra a favor, otherwise if it falls into the hands of Brother Big Bird, I am afraid that he will die even worse." ”

When the army heard this, they burst into laughter.

The generals who are familiar with each other in the army all call Guo Peng's nickname "Big Bird Brother", because the word Peng itself means big bird...... However, on some occasions, women will also exclaim: Brother Big Bird really deserves this title!

He was twenty-four or five years old, tall and sturdy, with resolute and smooth facial lines, sharp and angular, and even more heroic against the backdrop of bright armor; In contrast, Guo Shao's figure is thinner, and there is no blood on his face.

Both of them are descendants of the Guo family, a big family in Guanzhong, Guo Peng's background is the most prominent, his mother is Princess Heyang, and he is also the Marquis of Guanzhong County; And Guo Shao's life experience is ordinary, he has always lived under the glory of his cousin, but he is finally from a big family, otherwise he would not be able to be a captain at the age of ten.

……

At the end of the third year of the early Jing Dynasty, when Emperor Ming of Wei was critically ill, Sima Yi, who held the military power of Cao Wei, and Liu Fang, the supervisor of Zhongshu and Sun Zi, who manipulated the cardinal of Cao Wei, were the "internal masters", forcing Emperor Ming to depose the clan Gu Ming group at the time of "despair", and established the pattern of his and Cao Shuang's joint auxiliary government, which was the first challenge of the courtiers of the Shi clan to the imperial power of Cao Wei. [1] Therefore, the pattern of Cao Shuang and Sima Yi jointly assisting the government was the product of the struggle between different interest groups in the upper echelons of the ruling class at that time, which doomed the two to inevitably engage in a brutal struggle. It is reported that after 10 years of open and secret fighting, the scheming Sima Yi fought hard with his dying body to destroy Cao Shuang and his political group in one fell swoop. This incident occurred at the beginning of the first year of Jiaping (249), after which Sima's father and son completely controlled the regime, so many commentators of the past dynasties believe that "the death of Wei began with Cao Shuang's execution" (Wang Mingsheng). In view of this, I will briefly analyze the truth of the dispute between Cao Shuang and Sima Yi, in order to learn from the Fang family.

1. The superficial cooperation between Cao Shuang and Sima Yi in the early days

In the first month of the first year (239), Emperor Wei Ming died, and Wang Fang of Qi succeeded to the throne, and Cao Shuang and Sima Yi jointly assisted the government. However, according to the convention, although the two are the same supplement, there must be a distinction between primary and secondary, according to the "Three Kingdoms? Cao Shuang's biography" contains: "(Ming) Emperor is ill, but to lead Shuang into the bedroom, worship the general, fake Jieyue, supervise the Chinese and foreign military, record Shang Shushi, and the Taiwei Sima Yi and receive the edict to assist the young master. Although Chen Shou did not explicitly state the priority of the two here, judging from Cao Shuang's title, he was actually the first assistant appointed by Emperor Wei Ming to perform the highest military and political power, while Sima Yi only took the fictitious title of Taiwei as the second assistant. The purpose of Emperor Wei Ming's arrangement was to consolidate the power of Cao Wei and restrain the power of the world. However, all kinds of textbooks and most of the dynastic history or general history works believe that Cao Shuang had a conflict with Sima Yi at the beginning of the beginning, and the main basis is the "Three Kingdoms? The record of Cao Shuang's biography: "Ding Mi drew a strategy, made Shuang Baizi, issued an edict to turn King Xuan as the prince, respected him by his name, and wanted to make Shangshu perform things, first come by himself, and have to control its weight." "Tongjian" also copied this record, thinking that Cao Shuang had thus emptied Sima Yi. In fact, Shuang is the first assistant, and the book is played, so naturally "come first by yourself", and there is no need to pass guò Zunyi to exclude him as the Taifu, which is the Jin people's intention to weave accusations against Cao Shuang, and the Qing dynasty Wang Mao pointed out that "this special Jin people's words" [2]

Cao Shuang, the word Bozhao, the son of Cao Zhen. Because Cao Wei restricted the clan's participation in politics, so Shuang, like many clansmen, had no military merits to speak of, and was known as "mediocre and mortal". But he had a personal friendship with Emperor Ming, and when Emperor Ming was the crown prince, he was "very dear" to Shuang [3]. After Emperor Ming succeeded to the throne, he took Shuang as a loose cavalry attendant, relocated the captain of the city gate, added a scattered cavalry attendant, and turned to the general of Wuwei, "favored and treated", and was included in the pre-auxiliary government. Therefore, although Shuang is the first assistant, his social prestige is not high. Since Emperor Wen of Wei, Sima Yi has held important positions and gained outstanding fame, becoming a recognized leader of the scholar class, calling it "the hope of the imperial court".

In comparison, Cao Shuang couldn't help but feel ashamed of himself. He was the first assistant and was in the position of Yi, and the courtiers were dissatisfied. In order to win people's hearts, Cao Shuang first promoted Sima Yi after assisting the government, according to the "Book of Jin? Emperor Xuan": At the beginning of the year, Yi moved to serve in the middle, held the festival, and supervised the Chinese and foreign military, recorded Shang Shushi, and "commanded 3,000 troops with Shuang to govern the government together". As for the Taifu, it was also to appease Sima Yi and order his younger brother Xi Shangyun: "Emperor Xian."
