"Father, let the eldest brother come back, the eldest brother is not dead!"

Cao Chong, who was only thirteen years old, died, and this was the only sentence he left.

In the spring of the thirteenth year of Jian'an, Jiangling City, Jingzhou.

It was night, the wind and rain were miserable, and the lightning and thunder were roaring.

The storm that swept in seemed to engulf the entire Gangneung Castle.

In the bustling county guard of the city.

A richly dressed, bearded, middle-aged man with gray temples was standing in place, letting the pouring rain wet his clothes.

He closed his eyes tightly, his face was bitter, and he couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears.

This person is the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao, and Cao Mengde.

Cao Cao slowly opened his eyes, looked at the sky and night, and glared angrily:

"Regret that you shouldn't have killed that Hua Tuo!"

"If Hua Tuo is still there, he will definitely be able to save my child's life!"

Chong'er is gone!

Prior to this, Cao Cao had always had the idea of making Cao Chong his son and inheriting the great cause.

Cao Chong's death almost made Cao Cao's heart drain.

Now, Cao Cao's heart is full of remorse.

If he hadn't killed Hua Tuo at that time, he would have just been imprisoned.

Chong'er's stubborn disease will not be treated by no one, so he will die so suddenly.

The ministers on the side did not dare to gasp.

They all know it.

At this time, whoever dares to step forward will inevitably catch fire.

No matter who it is, they can't bear the wrath of the prime minister now.

At this time, Cao Cao only felt that a mouthful of blood was surging up, his throat was sweet, and his body fell backwards.

"Prime Minister, Prime Minister!"

Seeing this scene, the ministers rushed over to support Cao Cao.

Cao Pi burst into tears with red eyes:

"Doctor, doctor!"

Suddenly, the thunder roared.

Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, Xu Chu, Cheng Yu, Jia Xu and others who were standing outside the house were all shocked.

It's messed up, it's all messed up!

Previously, Cao Cao had always said that he wanted to establish Cao Chong as the prince, but now Cao Chong died of a sudden illness.

Cao Chong is still young, only thirteen years old.

After Cao Ang's death, Cao Pi naturally became the eldest son, and Cao Zhi was also quite loved by Cao Cao, and he was qualified to compete for the son.

Cao Chong died, and there were many gainers.

Especially Cao Pi and Cao Zhi, they can't get rid of suspicion!

Judging from Cao Cao's love for Cao Chong, Cao Chong's death will definitely cause a bloody storm.

Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, Xun You, Jia Xu and others frowned.

They all tacitly had the same idea.

Although Liaodong has been decided, there are Liu Bei and Sun Quan in the southeast, Zhang Lu in the west, Liu Zhang in the southwest, and Ma Teng and Han Sui in the northwest.

These people are all ready to move, as long as they find the right opportunity, they may attack at any time.

Now because of Cao Chong's death, Cao Cao is haggard, so he even has a recurrence of head disease, if there is a case, then what should be done next?

Not to mention anything else, the choice of the person who will inherit the great cause is still a problem.

Cao Pi? I'm afraid that not many people in the entire army will obey him.

There is no other reason, just because he is too modest, so ordinary that people can't even notice his existence.

If this kind of person inherits the position, I am afraid that it is no different from Liu Zhang of Nabashu.

Cao Zhi?

Uninhibited and fond of drinking, how can you handle state affairs?

As for Cao Cao's remaining sons, they are all too young to inherit the great cause.

At this time, the strategists had already begun to secretly plan how to stand in line.

It's nothing more than following Cao Pi or Cao Zhi.

"Come in."

Just when everyone was thinking about it, Cao Cao's voice came from inside the house.

It sounds weak, but the majesty is not diminished in the slightest.

The generals hurried to the house.

I saw Cao Cao sitting on the bed, holding his forehead, his face was bloodless, and it seemed that the pain of his head disease had just passed.

Seeing this, Cao Pi hurriedly stepped forward, picked up a wet towel and carefully wiped the sweat beads on Cao Cao's forehead, and said in a low voice:

"Father, although Brother Chong's life is weak, you must pay attention to your body."

"If Brother Chong sees his father like this, I'm afraid it will hurt my heart."

Cao Cao frowned slightly, glanced at Cao Pi, and said in a cold tone:

"Chong'er died today, which is my misfortune."

"I am heartbroken, but this is your luck!"

Hearing this, Cao Pi hurriedly knelt on the ground and said:

"Father, Brother Chong is gone, and the child is also heartbroken, how can you think it's a blessing?"

Cao Cao didn't pay any attention to Cao Pi anymore, but glanced at the ministers in front of him, and said in a low voice:

"What happened just now also alerted me, my body is not as good as day by day."

"The position of the son of this world should have been decided early!"

Hearing this, Xu Chu was immediately unhappy, and stood up and said:

"What are you talking about, Prime Minister?"

"In my opinion, the prime minister's body is good!"

"If someone really wants the prime minister's life, even if it is the Lord of Yama, I will let him go back obediently!"

Cao Cao, who was still grief-stricken, couldn't help but smile a little more on his face when he heard Xu Chu's words, but he disappeared.

However, Cao Cao's words made the eyes of the two people shine, but they did not expose too much.

That is Cao Pi and Cao Zhi.

Cao Pi himself is the eldest son of today, and he is the person who has the best chance to become the son of the world.

Now that the most favored Cao Chong dies, Cao Pi's chances are greater.

Although Cao Zhi is not the eldest son, he is the most popular among Cao Cao besides Cao Chong.

In this world, Cao Zhi and Cao Pi can be said to be comparable.

But these are also based on the posthumous death of Cao Chong.

Otherwise, Cao Cao's love for Cao Chong would not have a chance at all.

Seeing Cao Cao's meaning now, it seems that he has decided to establish a son.

The surrounding ministers were all nervous.

Who will it be?

Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, or Cao Zhang, who is still fighting outside?

Wu Zhen, Hua Xin and others, who supported Cao Pi, as well as Yang Xiu and others, who supported Cao Zhi, all had a cold sweat in their hands.

Now that they are standing in line, once the position of the son of this world is finalized, it is not an exaggeration to say that their life and death have been determined.

Cao Cao's words are now like a judgment for them.

No one dared to say a word until the matter was finalized.

It was Jia Xu, whose face was a little strange.

Previously, Cao Cao asked Jia Xu and told him that he wanted to establish Cao Chong as the prince.

Jia Xu did not answer directly, but said two people.

Yuan Shao, and Liu Biao.

Both of them were due to the improper establishment of heirs, which led to the collapse of their power.

To put it bluntly, Jia Xu supports Cao Pi.

This kind of thing is to establish an heir, and it is necessary to be the eldest son, and it is not necessary to abolish the elder and the youngest.

At that time, Cao Cao's reaction told Jia Xu that he would adopt the matter.

In Jia Xu's view, the position of the son of the world is undoubtedly Cao Pi.

Under everyone's expectations, Cao Cao coughed lightly twice, and then slowly spoke:

"Before Chong'er left, he said a word to me."

"In this world, I actually have another candidate."

"And, it's my eldest son!"
