989 Blessing posterity

Cao Pi deeply regretted that he should not have forced his brothers hard, and ordered Cao Xiong to be buried thickly, and later Cao Xiong was posthumously presented as King Xiao Huai.

This Spring Festival in Yiling City, because of Guan Yu's death, there were no lanterns, and even firecrackers were not allowed, so it was very low-key.

On this day, Wang Baoyu had just fallen asleep, and he actually dreamed of Cao Cao, who had not been seen for a long time. Cao Cao looked thin and gave up his hands with a smile on his face.

Seeing Cao Cao, Wang Baoyu felt very kind, but he looked a lot older, which was really sad, and half-jokingly: "Old Cao, no matter how you walk, you tremble, is it overindulgence?" ”

"Baoyu made fun of her, and she didn't get along with her wife and concubine for many days." Cao Cao smiled, lowered his voice and said, "This time I came to go to Yiling. ”

"Lao Cao, aren't you kidding! Your territory is so vast and the Yiling Tomb is so small, how can you come to me? What the hell are you trying to do, you don't want to take my Yiling, right? Wang Baoyu thought that he had misheard, and immediately raised his vigilance.

"Why did Baoyu say this, if he had such a meaning, how could he wait until today?" Cao Cao was very dissatisfied with Wang Baoyu's statement, and then praised himself as a flower: "Hehe, with my heroic prestige and the virtue of Huai Jin, it is most suitable to stay in this Yi Tomb." ”

"Wait, Lao Cao, you really confused me, what position do you have to arrange for you when you come to Yiling? Tell me the truth, did something happen to you? Is Cao Pi reversed or is the treasury empty? ”

"No, everything is empty, why are there trivialities?"

After Cao Cao finished speaking, he shook his head slightly, turned around and staggered back, Wang Baoyu was inexplicably sad and chased after him, but Cao Cao disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Lao Cao, how can you say that you can leave, look at when your quick temper can be changed, I can promise you. Come on, welcome to Yiling! Wang Baoyu hurriedly shouted, suddenly waking up from his dream.

Alas, the dream just now was very unlucky, in terms of days, Cao Cao was mostly gone, Wang Baoyu sighed secretly, friend, there is one less.

Coincidentally, the fire girl in her arms also woke up, saying that she dreamed of Yang Xiu, he said that he had let go of his grudges, and promised that he would definitely be her biological father and daughter in the next life, and she would be spoiled like a pearl in her palm.

You have a fart relationship with Lao Tzu as a father and daughter, but being so disturbed by the fire, Wang Baoyu's mood calmed down a lot, Cao Cao is gone, that is the general trend of history, and it is the end of life, or sleep well.

The next morning, an envoy from Cao Wei came to Yiling and asked to see Baoyu, the prince of Ba.

Wang Baoyu let him in, and the messenger said that he had been arranged by Lord Zhong Xuan to send him a gift and a letter.

Zhong Xuan's character Wang Baoyu was relieved, and opened the package in a big way, there was only a very ordinary clay pot inside, and after opening the seal, there were gray-white ashes inside.

"What is this?" Wang Baoyu asked unhappily.

"My subordinates are acting on orders, but I really don't know." The messenger hurriedly shirked his responsibility.

Wang Baoyu opened the letter again, but was immediately stunned on the spot, this letter was not written by Zhong Xuan, but Cao Cao's own letter. Moreover, it is also a suicide note.

"Baoyu, Lao Cao pauses here, I know that my life is not long, I often recall the past when I laughed, you are like my son, but also a close friend, but unfortunately I am leaving, but you are alone in Yiling to steal joy, do not come to send. Wen Baoyu built a seven-level floating tower, although Lao Cao was for the country all his life, after all, he killed deeply, and he ordered Zhong Xuan to burn my body and send it to Yiling to rest. If the relics are burned, all of them will be sent to the Yi Tomb to spread the gospel to future generations, if it is only a handful of ashes, but please remember the feelings of the past and take them in. I knew that Chong'er was here, but I didn't get together much when I was born, so let him accompany me more! ”

Wang Baoyu understood, glanced at the clay pot a few times, and despised Cao Cao's narcissism very much, just his virtue, big fish and meat every day, countless children, never read a few words of Buddha, did not eat vegetarian for a few days, and burned relics! These big pieces inside should be unburned bones!

"Hehe, Lao Cao, you're so funny!" Wang Baoyu laughed, suddenly felt cold on his cheeks, and actually cried.

Wang Baoyu rewarded the envoy and asked him to return to Yecheng to return to Zhong Xuan, looking at Cao Cao's ashes, his heart was full of emotion. Cao Cao can be said to be righteous enough for himself, and when he was dying, he still believed in himself, and even entrusted the real ashes.

"Lao Cao, don't worry! I'll bury you well. Wang Baoyu bowed a few times to the urn, and then solemnly covered it.

Although he didn't feel sad, but the tears on his face were dry, Cao Cao trusted him so much, but he was often wary of him, it really shouldn't be. It's all to blame for this chaotic world, if they are in the same peaceful and prosperous world, maybe they can become close friends with all their hearts.

This matter is definitely not trivial, Wang Baoyu didn't tell everyone, but Cao Chong, as a son, of course has the right to know, Wang Baoyu sent someone to call Cao Chong over and handed him the letter.

Cao Chong, who has always been indifferent, couldn't help but burst into tears after learning about this qiē, and choked up: "Alas, my father has always loved me the most, and I can't say goodbye to him, it's unfilial!" ”

"Chong'er, don't cry, isn't your father here? Spend more time with him in the future! Wang Baoyu wiped her tears and persuaded her.

"Well, Chong'er should chant the Buddha and spend it for his father."

Cao Chong wiped away his tears and resolutely picked up the ashes, and Wang Baoyu secretly instructed his attendants to bury Cao Cao's ashes under the seventh-level floating tower, without erecting a monument.

Subsequently, according to his own memory, Wang Baoyu asked Da Qiao to personally carve a portrait of Cao Cao, which was also placed on the top floor of the seventh-level Futu Tower, opposite Guan Yu.

Later, there was a rumor in Yiling City that passers-by heard the sound of changing cups and lamps on the top floor of the Futu Pagoda at night, but there was no light.

Cao Chong changed into white plain clothes, and since then he has lived in the inner room of the open hall connected to the volume shed under the Futu Pagoda, and he has to fulfill the duties of his son and keep filial piety for his father Cao Cao for three years.

After Cao Pi succeeded to the throne, he made Jia Xu a lieutenant, Zhong Xuan was promoted to Xiangguo, and Wang Lang was a doctor of imperial history. The rest of the officials, big and small, were rewarded, but Sima Yi was not seen.

Sima Yi was not dismissed and still held the post of chief secretary of the Prime Minister's Office, while Cao Pi not only inherited the position of King of Wei, but also became the new prime minister of the Han Dynasty.

Sima Yi knew Cao Pi's ruthlessness, and resigned again because of illness, and still went home to accompany the children to study and practice martial arts.

One of Cao Cao's coffins was buried in Gaoling, but whether there was a father Cao Cao among them became Cao Pi's major heart disease.

On this day, Cao Pi finally couldn't hold back, called Zhong Xiang over, and asked: "Zhong Xiang, as the eldest son, if you don't know where your father is buried and have nowhere to worship, wouldn't it be sad!" ”
