891 The son of Cao Pi
Take back the Divine Decree? Yang Xiu knew that he had encountered a tricky errand, and asked in embarrassment, "What if Baoyu doesn't allow it?" ”
"It's not too late to start up again." Cao Cao said.
Yang Xiu immediately got up and went to Yiling, and brought Wang Baoyu something as a meeting gift, which was the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases" written by Zhang Zhongjing.
Zhang Zhongjing, a medical saint who was immersed in seeing a doctor and writing a book in the palace, did not know the news of Wang Baoyu's northward journey, but he remembered that he promised Wang Baoyu that after the "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases" was written, he found a little eunuch and asked him to send this book to Yiling Mansion.
When the little eunuch came to Yiling Mansion, it was already empty, but he happened to meet Yang Xiu who was passing by. Yang Xiu took the book on his own initiative and promised to transfer it to Wang Baoyu.
After Yang Xiu left, Cao Cao gathered the civil and military officials together and focused on Wang Baoyu. He first emphasized that the matter of enclosing Wang Baoyu as the king of Hanxing was the idea of the saint, not what he wanted, and everyone knew that Wang Baoyu was the emperor's own nephew, and in the final analysis, it was a matter of the family, and at this point, Cao Cao naturally lied.
Subsequently, Cao Cao emphasized that Wang Baoyu only owns Yiling, and it can't become a climate, so everyone doesn't have to worry too much.
How can everyone not be worried, the gossip is non-stop, how can the king's title be casually there, even if Wang Baoyu's surname is Wang, it must be infinitely harmful.
There are also bold people who question, even if the idea of this king was not from King Wei, then you should have stopped it at the beginning, to put it bluntly, the emperor is Wang Baoyu's uncle, he is still your son-in-law.
Cao Cao laughed twice and explained that he felt that Wang Baoyu insisted on going north, and this person had no ambitions, it was nothing more than a false name, but now it seems that he was indeed negligent.
Everyone started arguing again, it's useless to just review, there has to be practical action.
In the end, Cao Cao could only helplessly say that he had sent someone to Yiling to try to remove Wang Baoyu's title, and if Wang Baoyu did not agree, it would not be too late to beat him again.
Everyone still felt that Cao Cao missed the old feelings and refused to be the enemy of Wang Baoyu, and at this moment, a news came, Sun Quan, who did not admit defeat, once again raised his army.
Wang Baoyu did not make any movement for the time being, of course, he had to face Sun Quan's provocation first. Cao Cao took this opportunity to divert the topic, and immediately ordered his third son Cao Zhi to lead the team, and Wen Ping and Xu Huang as the vanguard, raising 100,000 troops to support Hehuai.
It was very timely for Sun Quan to raise troops, just to cover up Wang Baoyu's affairs, Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Yang Xiu could take back the holy decree, he would never want to start a war with Wang Baoyu.
The reason why Cao Cao arranged for Cao Zhi to lead the troops was naturally that he didn't want to give up this son, hoping that he could change his bad habits and make contributions.
As he grew older and became king, Cao Cao felt more and more that he should choose a successor as soon as possible. Wang Baoyu is not there, the loyal Cao Zhang is basically not in the range of choices, the most favored Cao Chong is far away in paradise and fades out of people's sight, and the others are too young to see anything extraordinary. Therefore, Cao Cao pulled his sons together, and only Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were left who had the ability to inherit the throne.
Although Cao Pi's performance in recent years has been very good, and it is indeed the material of the block government, Cao Cao feels that this child is more than ruthless, not good enough, and too scheming.
In this comparison, Cao Zhi is more straightforward, so Cao Cao still hopes that Cao Zhi can succeed to the throne.
However, Cao Zhi still disappointed Cao Cao, and after Cao Zhi learned the news of leading his troops to fight, he was happy and set up a banquet that night. The eldest brother Cao Pi also sent someone to congratulate him, and the wine sent was also extraordinarily mellow, and Cao Zhi drank too much wine.
In the early morning of the next day, after the army was purged and purged against, there was no trace of Cao Zhi. Cao Cao's heart sank, and he hurriedly sent someone to inquire, but learned that this son was so drunk last night that he couldn't wake up at all.
Therefore, this opportunity to lead troops to fight in a war that Cao Pi dreamed of was given up by Cao Zhi on his own initiative.
How can such a person who can't even understand himself govern a country? Faced with the army ready to go, Cao Cao was furious, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he came to Cao Zhi's mansion in person.
Cao Zhi was still asleep, Cao Cao was so angry that he ordered a basin of cold water to pour on him, and Cao Zhi finally opened his eyes. As soon as he saw his angry father, he immediately woke up, kowtowed again and again, and crawled out, but his legs were weak and he couldn't support the horse at all.
Cao Cao sighed gloomily, looking at this disheveled son with a mouth full of wine, and was extremely disappointed. finally made up his mind to give up Cao Zhi, or arranged for Cao Zhang to lead the team, and immediately sent troops together!
Cao Zhi missed the most important opportunity in his life, crying every day and begging his father to forgive him, and he really didn't dare to do it again in the future. Cao Cao refused to see each other, and he was sick for this reason, and after he recovered, he felt more and more weak, alas, he couldn't accept the old age!
Cao Cao began to think about arranging the future, and choosing a successor was undoubtedly the top priority. Guo Jia, Xun You, and Xun Yu died, and the old strategists who followed Cao Cao were only Cheng Yu and Jia Xu.
Cheng Yu was still in Xudu, Cao Cao had no choice but to find Jia Xu, and he knew in his heart that he was very close to Cao Pi.
"Wenhe, Gu has been feeling unwell lately, I want to ask you, who should you choose to succeed Gu?" Cao Cao said.
Jia Xu blinked, he didn't say anything for a long time, Cao Cao was a little annoyed, and asked, "Why don't you speak?" Could it be that loneliness will harm you? ”
"King Wei, the old minister was restless just now, and he remembered two people." Jia Xu said.
"Who are you thinking about in front of Lonely?" Cao Cao said dissatisfied.
"Lao Chen remembered Yuan Shao and Liu Biao." Jia Xu said.
Cao Cao was so smart that he understood the meaning of Jia Xu's words, Yuan Shao wanted to set up three sons to succeed him, and the brothers turned against him, and eventually all the heirs died. Liu Biao's situation is similar, the youngest son Liu Cong, and the eldest son Liu Qi took refuge in Liu Bei, but lost Jingzhou in the end.
"Haha, there are no smart people in the world who can compare with Wenhe." Cao Cao laughed, Jia Xu didn't say it explicitly, but gave Cao Cao an answer.
Cao Cao then summoned a hundred officials and officially declared Cao Pi the prince of Wei. Cao Pile was broken, and he said countless words of praise and virtue. Cao Zhi was sad, so he could only use wine to drown his sorrows, and the appearance of the wolf was even better than before.
Looking back at Wang Baoyu, Wuxia encountered a strange thing at night, and sailed to a stable place overnight, and the soldiers were tired, so they had to lean the boat on the shore and rest for half a day before setting off.
Zhang Qiying was seasick by the big waves and vomited, Wang Baoyu took her ashore, Mo Qianxun and Fan Jinqiang also followed, and a group of four people walked around.
After turning over a hill on the shore, an open field appeared in front of me, and in a huge open space, a large number of boulders of different specifications were inexplicably placed, covering an area of several hundred acres.
