On the same day, Shixun persuaded Lü Bu to withdraw his troops, and Liu Bei was also forced to return to Yizhou, so Cao Cao handed over the matter of breaking off the queen and guarding the town to Cao Hong and Zhang He, and personally led the army back to Anyi. The first thing I did after I came back was to inform Dong Zhao: You can start it.

Cao Cao originally hated the Han Emperor, and had already plotted to usurp the throne, implying that Xun and others had prepared in advance, but this time he ran to Guanzhong, and saw that the forces of Lu Bu and Liu Bei were still quite strong, and he had just won Jing and Yang, the place was not flat, and the foundation was not solid, and he was a little vague in his heart. Therefore, I temporarily agreed to the invitation of Xun, Dong Zhao and others, let's temporarily take the first position to make a prince to play tricks.

So first of all, more than 200 Tai students jointly signed a letter, saying that Wei Gonggong was great and should be promoted to the throne - the main tandem is Zhuge Jun, the younger brother of the Zhuge family, and Sima Tong and Sima Min, the younger brothers of the Sima family. Immediately, under the instruction of Xi Xi and Hua Xin, and Wei Chen under the instruction of Dong Zhao and Chen Qun, they echoed each other, and Xian played support, Liu Xie had no choice but to send an edict, so that Zongzheng Liu Ai went to Anyi with the festival and crowned Cao Cao as the king of Wei.

The reason why Cao Cao was in such a hurry to ascend the throne was actually to show his son Cao Ang, and only to officially accept the emperor's order, he wanted to canonize Cao Ang as the prince of the king. The authorities are confused, Cao Cao can't see the undercurrent of the princes fighting for the heir at this time, and he is thinking that since Cao Ang opposes his claim to be king, he must use facts to educate this stupid son - do you dare to take the initiative to resign from the appointment of Wang Shizi? Once you have to be the son of the world, you will be completely tied to my father and me, and you still want to get out, which is tantamount to a fool's dream.

So what is Cao Ang's reaction to this? Cao Ang Gengjie has obsessions, but he is not naïve. Previously, it was because he had always admired Shixun. Treat them like teachers. That's why he dared to confide in front of Shixun. Unexpectedly, it was Xun Tie who was determined to support Cao Cao to ascend to the throne, Cao Ang's love was deep, but he hated it, and he was disappointed and annoyed for a while, and put some nonsense words that should not have been declared. If it weren't for the fact that he was in front of Shixun, he would never have dared to make such nonsense.

However, Cao Ang has never liked school affairs. Originally, as Cao Cao's heir, this spy force had to assist Cao Cao firmly in his hands. But on the contrary, he tried his best to keep it clear and never had the slightest intention of interfering, so Lu Hongnai was able to secretly spy on his words and deeds. Cao Ang was unwary of this, and he didn't expect his brother Cao Pi to dare to tamper with his words and try to drive a wedge between himself and Cao Cao.

Cao Cao really wanted to call Cao Ang in front of him, father and son made friends, I ask you what you think, you must also be able to understand my hardships, and you must dispel the unrealistic conjectures in your heart. But I'm afraid that once I open up and be honest, the words will be screwed. On the contrary, the feud between father and son has deepened, if this is due to opposing views. The guide has torn his face, and it will not be easy to get back together in the future. So he didn't dare to ask, so he had to use practical actions to test and educate Cao Ang.

Cao Ang did not dare to advise his father openly, so he had to secretly satirize some ministers and boycott Cao Cao's claim to be king, hoping to reverse the situation. However, after many purges, now the court and China are all Cao Cao's sworn friends, and few are willing to get on Cao Ang's thief ship. Cao De, who also disapproved of Cao Cao being the king, and did have the courage to do it, saw it a layer deeper than Cao Ang, and said to him: "Father Qing does not want the king, but is forced by the power, and has to be the king." The lord cannot bend what the courtiers want, and if he does, he will be lonely and widowed, and he will be defeated. ”

I don't want the Cao family to become a usurper of the Han Dynasty, but the shape has come to this point, we are powerless to dominate the sky alone, and do it against everyone, Zixiu, you still pinch your nose and admit it.

Cao Ang's secret conspiracy almost failed to get any results, but every step of his actions was detected by Lu Hong, and then polished by Cao Pi, and was secretly reported to Cao Cao. Cao Cao was angry because of this, and held back several times to prevent himself from having a seizure, and finally made up his mind to send Cao Angnan to patrol Jingzhou - you kid stay away for the time being, don't mix it up blindly, and when the dust settles, you will return and become the prince of Wei.

And at this time, the sergeant came to report that the imperial doctor had ordered Hua Tuo to return to Anyi. Cao Cao slapped the table: "Why is it too late!" ”

Previously, Cao Cao gave Hua Tuo a big vacation and asked him to return to his hometown Peiguo County to save his relatives, but in the middle of the western expedition, he suddenly had a recurrence of head wind, so he hurriedly sent someone to recall Hua Tuo. Count the time, I haven't left Chang'an and returned to the east, Huayuanhua should arrive, why has it been delayed until today?

So he investigated the matter carefully, and immediately ordered that Hua Tuo be sent to prison and sentenced to hanging.

Cao Cao was angry with Hua Tuo on the one hand: I'm worried about my son's affairs, what kind of person do you dare to touch Lonely's scales? ! And although he couldn't catch up with the time, he would instinctively think that if you had been by my side, then I would have been able to diagnose and treat the wind immediately, and I would not have been sick with Lishan for a few days; If you can get to the front line early, maybe Miaocai will not die, and the battle situation will not be so frustrated, and it will almost be difficult to return to the sky...... In the final analysis, it's all your Yahuatuo's fault!

- In fact, when Cao Cao's head wind attacked, Xia Houyuan had already hung up, the defense line collapsed, and the soldiers broke away, even if Cao Cao arrived ten days and a half a month earlier, it was basically useless. But once Cao Cao gets angry, does he still care about you? What else does he care about when it is not time, logic is not logical, cause and effect is not cause and effect? It must all be Hua Tuo's bad!

On the other hand, Hua Tuo himself is also dead. Thinking that he was invited to Xudu by Shixun to diagnose and treat Cao Cao's head wind, Cao Cao was invited by Xun, and added a position of "doctor Cao Peng" in the Prime Minister's Mansion, which was assumed by Hua Tuo, and all his wives and children were taken to live in Xudu to eliminate his worries. Hua Tuo was very proud at first, I have regained my status as a scholar, and I don't have to abandon my profession as a doctor, I have the best of both worlds, how satisfying I am.

It is said that the doctor Cao Peng is an official position, not a doctor's rank, because the person who holds this position not only treats Cao Cao's family and his important ministers, but also has to be responsible for part of the administrative work. In later generations, this is equivalent to the president of a public hospital directly under the State Council (Prime Minister's Office), not just a chief physician. However, Hua Tuo had no interest in administrative work, and made a mess of this new editing organization, but Cao Cao could still tolerate it—you can take care of a few doctors in total, how much can happen—Hua Yuanhua himself is like being bound, trapped in a cage, and depressed.

When Wei Zhaojian was established, Hua Tuo followed Cao Cao to Anyi, and was promoted to the "Imperial Physician Order" of Wei, and there were more people and things in charge, and this depression also increased. Finally seized an opportunity to return to the hometown and province, it is really like a dragon returning to the sea, a tiger into the mountains, and the caged bird instantly soaring high into the sky, but Jue: "Life is precious, the identity value is higher, if it is for freedom, both can be thrown." ”

In fact, his wife and children are all with him, and there are any relatives in his hometown to save, most of them are separated by generations, and they can't hit eight poles, but they use this as an excuse to give themselves a long vacation. Therefore, as soon as he returned to Qian County, he climbed the mountains to collect medicine every day, and opened a large outpatient clinic at night, basically recovering his former medical career of being free and easy.

It's just that after a few days of freedom, the holiday was not over, but Cao Cao sent someone to summon him, and Hua Tuo resisted and came together, deliberately dragging his feet and delaying the trip. He is no longer an ordinary doctor, but the imperial physician of the Duke of Wei and the imperial physician of the Wei State, and the people sent by Cao Cao did not dare to force him to leave, so he delayed for more than a month before finally reluctantly returning to Anyi.

It's not okay to hear the call, this is also a violation of discipline, if you go on the platform a little more, you can barely get by by saying that it is illegal. Just in time for Cao Cao to be in a bad mood, he was simply sentenced to violating the law and immediately sentenced to prison.

And Cao Cao still has a layer of anger: You said that my head wind can be cured in three or five years, and now it's been a few years? Why am I sick again? Are you really serious about treating me? If you don't care, then the hanging is light, and you should be reckless; If you can't cure it with your heart, then what's the use of leaving you?!

So Xun You, Zhang Ji and others went to Cao Cao to intercede, asking for pardon for Hua Tuo's capital crime, and Cao Cao said: "Tuo can cure my illness, but the villain is old and wants to respect himself." Even if I do not kill this son, I shall not cut off this root for me. "If you can't listen to anyone's words, you must put Hua Tuo to death and hurry up.

The news reached Chang'an, it happened that Xun returned from Liangzhou, Sima Yi knew that Hua Tuo was first recommended by Xun to Cao Cao, according to the law at the time, the recommended person was convicted, and the recommended master also did not notice, so he hurriedly reported that it was Xun. He said teacher, you can be careful, it stands to reason that you are deeply trusted by Wei Gong, although Hua Tuo should be a capital crime, there is no rebellion, loss of land, under normal circumstances, you will be given a warning, the problem is that Wei Gong has been in a bad mood recently, you must not go to intercede for Hua Tuo, which will cause him to be angry.

Shi Xun smiled slightly bitterly: "I know, there are worries about Lao Zhongda." "In the original history, Hua Yuanhua was killed for almost any reason, I thought that Tong Guò's own pre-planning, and his official son, and his family to his side, the old man might be able to escape this catastrophe. Unexpectedly, the achievements and experiences of a person's life are not only restricted by the external environment, but also affected by the internal endowment, and as the so-called "the country is easy to change, the nature is difficult to change", the old man Hua's stinky temper can't be changed, and he finally came to this point.

- I didn't recommend him to Cao Cao at all if I knew it, and if I let him drift in the rivers and lakes, maybe I would end up with a good death......

It's just that since things have come to a point, regret is useless after all. In the original history, it was not Cao Cao who was persuaded by Xun You and Zhang Ji, but Xun Yu, the first person in the Cao family's class, admonished him, even so, Cao Cao refused to spare Hua Tuo. One is that Old Man Hua does have a way to die and a place to die, and the other is that neither Cao Cao nor Xun Yu actually took the doctor too seriously, so if Xun Wen may not be willing to admonish, Cao Cao can also not sell your face at all.

And what about yourself? Can you persuade Cao Cao to let Hua Tuo go? Will it be as Zhong Da feared, but set himself on fire? That's it, that's it, whether it's successful or not, you have to try it first and then talk about it - immediately ask Sima Yi to be a good horse, he wants to gallop thousands of miles, and hurry back to Anyi to save Hua Yuanhua! (To be continued......)
