Zhou Tai's death was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. Sun Quan's life was once saved by Zhou Tai, it can be said that among the generals, the closest relationship with him is Zhou Youping, and now seeing him die in front of him, he immediately touched the corpse and cried bitterly, almost fainting. Gu Yong took the opportunity to speak and said: "With the courage of General Zhou, it is not yet complete, but what about the rest of the generations?" If the general doesn't make a plan early, those who cry on a different day may not be counted! ”

You see that even the immortal Zhou Tai is dead now, so what illusions do you have about the battle situation!

Sun Quan was so sad that he was confused, and immediately waved his hand: "Listen to Qing and the others." Gu Yong and Qin Song were overjoyed when they heard this, and hurriedly helped each other and ran out to discuss the matter of drafting the table.

Jiangdong Sun formally proposed to Xiahoudun the intention of surrendering, expressing his willingness to follow the strategy of "the southerners return to the south, and the northerners return to the north", which was shortly after the first day of the fifteenth year of Jian'an, in the original history, at this time the Chibi was the end, Sun Quan attacked Hefei again, and burned the siege and fled. On this timeline, Cao Cao had just led his army into Guanzhong, and before he arrived in Chang'an, a fast horse galloped from Jiangdong to play.

Although the war in Guanzhong is very tight, but it is established that Jingxiang and Jiangdong have been obtained, Cao Cao's pride is really indescribable, and he immediately wrote to Shi Xun who stayed in Anyi, hinting at him: "What He Qing said the day before yesterday can be planned immediately." ”

Cao Cao and Shixun "said the day before yesterday", what is it? It turned out to be the major event of accepting Chan concessions and usurping the Han dynasty. Because it was Xun's inadvertent instigation and provocation, Cao Cao was in a different state of mind from the original history, and as soon as he gritted his teeth, he planned to take that last step. Shi Xun reminded him that the time was not ripe, so Cao Cao said: "When you wait for Jiangdong, Jing and Jiao can also pass on the decision." It's countable. "If I can really destroy the Sun clan smoothly, then the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty will be equivalent to taking eleven, isn't the time ripe? At that time, you should plan for the Wei dynasty.

At that time, Shi Xun was forced to quickly change the topic and discuss with Cao Cao about the matter of Liu Bei and Chen Gong in the West. I want to get by. Cao Cao therefore asked: "The eight characters mentioned by Qianhongfu (southerners return to the south, northerners return to the north) can be determined in Jiangdong; Now that I am going to the west, is there a lonely person to teach? ”

It was Xun Xin who said that the eight words I said in my letter to you last time were just casual jokes, but I didn't expect the blind cat to be able to meet a dead mouse...... Now you go to fight Liu Bei and Chen Gong. Ask me again? Where do I have so many tricks for you? Even if Guo Fengxiao and Xun Wenruo are underground, there is no way to win the game with a word of 108,000 miles...... Unless it is a novelist's words, the strategist is depicted as a demon.

But since Cao Cao asked, it was Mr. Xun who needed to pretend to be forced. Whether it's true or not, useful or not, you have to say a few words casually, so as to stabilize your position in Cao Cao's mind. He bowed his head and groaned, and it took a while before he replied: "Xun also has eight characters, or he can make meritorious contributions." ”

Cao Cao said okay, listen to me, you hurry up. So Hoon took a long breath. said slowly: "If you want to settle in Kansai, or even enter Yizhou, but please ask the lord to distinguish Chen Lu." Divisive Fapan. ”

After Cao Cao, he led his army to leave Xudu and marched east to Luoyang, while Shixun returned to Anyi and continued to work on his Wei State Central Order. However, before he enjoyed a few days of peaceful life, Cao Cao sent another letter, saying that Jiangdong was peaceful. It's time for you to start planning for my Cao clan's dynasty.

It's Xun's big head - on the one hand, he still thinks that the time is not ripe, and Cao Cao usurped the throne. will adversely affect its prestige (you have to wait for Liu Bei to be defeated and Yizhou will not be troubled); On the other hand, for related matters. As the in-law of the Cao family, he has always stayed out of the matter and tried to mix as little as possible, so as not to damage his family's reputation, but this time Cao Cao directly put the burden on his shoulders......

After thinking about it, there was no way out, so I had to invite Dong Zhao, the right servant of Zhongshu, to come to the secret business - Dong Gongren was an important promoter of the Cao family's usurpation of the Han Dynasty, and this matter had to be presided over by him, and it was convenient for him to clear it up afterwards.

Shi Xun and Dong Zhao are also old friends, so there is no need to come to anything, so he directly explained Cao Cao's intentions and his own concerns to Dong Gongren. Dong Zhao nodded after listening, and said I also think that the lord has been a little impatient recently because of his sadness about Xun Wenruo's death, and this time is not the best time to act as a Han. However, we can't stand up to the lord, it's better to-" Or make the lord go further, which can line his heart. ”

When Shi Xun heard this, he was shocked: "Do you have to be the king?" "Do you want Cao Cao to be crowned king first, make a transition, and delay time at the same time?

Dong Zhaoyi frowned: "I don't mean to be the king, but to be the ruler." ”

The so-called Zai Heng, Zai refers to Dazai Zhou Gong, Heng refers to Ah Heng Yiyin, Wang Mang combined these two positions into one, forcing the Han Emperor to add himself a title. On the surface, this is just another name for the prime minister, but don't forget, according to the legend, Yi Yin once put Taijia in Tonggong, during which he ruled on behalf of the king, and the Duke of Zhou directly acted as the king to do the things of the Son of Heaven, so Wang Mang added the name of Zaiheng, which is actually equivalent to the so-called "regent" in later generations.

Wang Mang also reached the top step by step and in stages, he has never built a country, first named Zaiheng, then a fake (acting) emperor, and finally a real emperor. Dong Zhao's meaning, back then, Gaozu swore an oath to punish the white horse, and the surname Liu was not the king, so we created a new duke to come out and reward Duke Cao, and now we should also skip the prince and just add a false name of Zai Heng - or this name is stinky on the street, let's think of a new trick? Then you have to rely on the grand assistance of the General History and the Ming Sutra.

Shixun frowned and was silent for a while. The reason why Dong Zhao mentioned that he wanted to ask Cao Cao to go further, he thought of the matter of sealing the king, was because the original history was like this. Shi Xun originally thought that it was taking off his pants and farting - this is an extra move, if you want to usurp the throne, you can usurp it, the time is not right, and it doesn't make much sense to be the king of the princess, if the time comes, can't the marquis ascend to the sky and become the emperor in one step?

Thinking that Yuan Shu was called the Zhong family (originally in history, and this timeline did not allow him to go to that point, he was let Cao Cao suppress), and he didn't go through any princes and kings.

Cao Cao was the king because of the king, and the emperor (son emperor) because of the king, which was regarded as a precedent, and then the Jin Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, the Jin Dynasty, and even the Sui Dynasty, the Zhou Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty Sui, all according to the cat and the tiger. But whether the usurpation is justified. Whether the new empire is stable or not really has nothing to do with this set of ghost tricks, and later Zhao Kuangyin replaced Hou Zhou, let alone the king, no one has even done it. Don't you still open the world in the Northern and Southern Song Dynasty for 300 years?

However, the shape was forced, but Shi Xun now had to consider the issue of Cao Cao's claim to the throne, and if he wanted to delay Cao Cao's usurpation of the throne, he had to take one more step in between. So is it a king, or is it a title of Zai Heng or some other great rebellion? After careful consideration, it was decided that it would be better for us to follow the original history.

"Wang Mang usurped the government in the name of Zai Heng. Everyone is evil, and it is not desirable to ......" Wang Mang's set has long been stinky on the street, we can't follow it, "If his surname is not the king, Queen Gao will annul the contract." Why should I be afraid? ”

Since Liu Bang killed the white horse and swore an oath with the ministers, has the Han Dynasty really never divided the king with a different surname? Actually, this is a misconception. After Liu Bang's death, Emperor Hui passed on the throne, and after Emperor Hui's death, he was the two young emperors before and after, and then it was Emperor Wen's turn. For example, Feng Lütai is the king of Lü, Lü Chan is the king of Liang, Lü Lu is the king of Zhao, and Lü Tong is the king of Yan. Wait a minute......

When Empress Lu had just made up his mind, he first asked the right prime minister Wang Ling, and Wang Ling directly gave him the top: "Emperor Gao's punishment of the White Horse League said, 'It's not the Liu family, but the king.'" The whole world strikes together'. Today's king Lu is not about the covenant. Empress Lu asked Chen Ping, the prime minister of Zuo, and Zhou Bo, the marquis of Jiang, but the two replied: "Emperor Gao sets the world, the prince brother, the queen mother is now the system, and Wang Kundi is Zhu Lu." Anything goes. "Because these two things know, the king is not the king's. It relies on strength rather than the system, and the system is strict. As long as the strength is enough, it will definitely be broken, and you can't stop it at all, so why make the old lady unhappy?

Shi Xun turned this old example out, since Empress Lu had already broken Liu Bang's oath, then after hundreds of years, it would not be very earth-shattering to seal a king with a different surname, right? Instead of following the precedent of Wang Mang's stinky street, or even racking his brains to figure out a new name, it is better to Gong Cao Cao as the king.

In fact, he was thinking in his heart, if you want to draw up a new name, nine out of ten want me to go through the classics and give me ideas, if this matter is leaked out, my reputation will definitely be as stinky as Liu Xin - Lao Tzu doesn't do such stupid things!

The two discussed and began to plan separately. Dong Zhao asked for leave to go to Luoyang to contact Xi Xian, Hua Xin and others, and he reminded Xi Xuan that it was best to plant party henchmen in Taixue, so that the call for Cao Cao to be the king first came from the Tai students - Emperor Ling, the Tai student Yuedan Current Affairs, and Li Ying, Fan Fan, etc., advanced and retreated together, resulting in the eunuch purge, but since then he has left the tradition of students involved in political affairs.

Shixun himself still stayed in Anyi, with the Qian Pei Group as the core, and also began to engage in secret consortia. It is planned that the students will go to the book first, and then the courtiers will follow the noise, and finally Wei Chen will persuade him to go in - if you really want to use Wei Daihan in the future, you can also follow the same steps, this time it is a big exercise to usurp the throne.

Originally, Xun didn't want to come out in person, but since Cao Cao had written a letter and told him, it was not wise to hide behind the scenes completely - you had to let Cao Cao see that you were helping him. Therefore, he was half-hidden and half-exposed, still holding the pipa and half-covering his face to see Tian'er holding banquets and small meetings at home, and even he himself felt that his behavior was a bit shameful, and it was not what Confucianism should do......

Seeing that the fire is almost burning, just wait for Cao Cao's return from his western expedition - no need to win a big victory, as long as he doesn't lose too badly - he can launch it in Xu Capital first. However, at this time, one day, Cao Ang, the prince of the world, suddenly summoned, and when they met, he asked him honestly and unceremoniously: "Aunt Wen wants to make the adult king, are you?" ”

Shi Xun frowned and glanced at Cao Ang, and said in his heart, why is this guy like this? He is plain and gentle, especially to himself, who is not only regarded as an elder, but also as a teacher, and has never asked himself so straightforwardly and coldly. What's going on today? What's so upset about it?

He didn't intend to deceive Cao Ang—and he couldn't do anything about it—so he replied casually, "Yes." Cao Ang's face changed suddenly, and he said in a deep voice: "I think my uncle-in-law is a gentleman and a pure minister, and I don't want to do something rebellious for this!" Is there anyone who is confused? It is the order of the adults who want to harm the name of the adult! (To be continued)

ps: I've been feeling sick since last night, diarrhea, stomach pain, low-grade fever, I guess it's a gastrointestinal cold...... I don't know if it's because of the bad food or the heat. As a result, I lay in bed almost all day today, my stomach and bones hurt, and I finally struggled to get down to the ground to code a chapter. Seeing that I have worked so hard, how about giving me some monthly passes? R580
