The palace wall is faint, the moonlight is deep, Cao Rong dragged his tired body and walked towards the Taimiao in the palace.

In the first year of the early Huang Dynasty, when Cao Pi usurped the throne and became emperor, Cao Pi established a temple belonging to Cao Wei in the palace city of Luoyang.

As Cao Wei's Taizu Cao Cao, his spiritual position was naturally moved into the Taimiao Temple for the first time.

Of course, in addition to Cao Cao's spiritual seat, there is also the spiritual seat of Cao Cao's father, Cao Song.

Cao Song's nickname in Cao Wei was Emperor Tai.

When Cao Pi posthumously crowned Cao Song as the emperor, it also caused a lot of turmoil between the government and the opposition.

Because according to the etiquette system of the world, the ancestors who did not ascend to the throne of the Son of Heaven during their lifetime may be posthumously crowned due to their special status, but they cannot be posthumously crowned as emperors.

For example, Liu Bang's father, Liu Taigong, has always been the title of "Emperor Taishang" after his death. Also, Emperor Xiaowai of the Han Dynasty posthumously crowned his biological father Liu Kang as "Emperor Gong", and Emperor Xiaoan of the Han Dynasty posthumously crowned his biological father Liu Qing as "Emperor Xiaode".

But the emperor and the emperor are completely two honorific titles in different senses.

In the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, even the most mediocre emperors had to abide by the etiquette laws, but they were unscrupulously destroyed in the hands of Cao Pi.

And the reason why Cao Pi did this, of course, was not that he, a great writer, did not understand this etiquette, he just did it on purpose.

He just wanted to trample on the etiquette to find out whether the scholars in the world surrendered to Cao Wei.

Cao Pi's final goal was achieved.

With Cao Wei's national strength that year, Cao Pi had the confidence to trample on the word etiquette, but what about this year?

With tears in his eyes, Cao Rong fell to his knees in front of Cao Cao's spirit card with a plop.

"Father!

Emperor Wu!

Your Majesty!

The thief is about to arrive in Chang'an! ”

The reason why Cao Ei came to Cao Wei's temple alone tonight was because of the battle report he received today.

That battle report brought the entire Luoyang City to the brink of collapse, and also made Cao Rong, who has always been tenacious, can't help but come to the Taimiao tonight to find the deceased Cao Cao to cry.

As the actual ruler of the Cao Wei Empire at the moment, he needs to remain calm in front of outsiders.

But after all, he is a young man who has just passed the championship year this year.

In the face of big things, Cao Rong will also feel flustered.

It's just that because of his current status, there are not many people who can confide in his panic at the moment.

Cao Pi is a very good object, can Cao Pi's current physical condition, Cao Yi dare to tell him the shocking news he received today?

Cao Rong was raised by Cao Cao since he was a child, and he was talented and intelligent, so even if he had never been on the battlefield, he could accurately judge the current situation of Great Wei in Guanzhong through the content of the battle report he received today.

Cao Wei's last field army in Guanzhong was almost completely annihilated in Wuzhangyuan.

Cao Wei's mature and excellent command system in Guanzhong was almost also served by Mi Yang.

Under these two facts, Guanzhong is completely in the hands of Mi Yang, and it is not even a matter of time, but it has become a fact.

The loss of the vast territory of Guanzhong has made Cao Rong feel painful.

And the inference that the Han army was about to march under the city of Chang'an made Cao Rong burn all the inside.

Since ancient times, there are two capitals in China, Chang'an in the west and Luoyang in the east.

Chang'an's status in the hearts of the people of the world is self-evident.

Once Chang'an is lost, what is the use of Cao Wei holding Tongguan in his hands?

And once Chang'an is lost, even with the protection of Tongguan, Luoyang, the capital of the Great Wei, will inevitably fall into danger.

If the thief takes Chang'an and continues to march towards Luoyang in one go, then how should he deal with himself?

Cao Rong didn't know, so he came to the temple tonight, hoping that Cao Cao's spirit in the sky could give him a little inspiration.

But as time went by, no matter how much Cao Ei, who had been kneeling on the ground for a long time, burst into tears, he never got a little revelation in the dark.

This made Cao Rong's heart more and more sad.

Cao Rong raised his head and looked around the temple where he was now.

What Cao Rong knew was that Cao Pi may have been trying to promote the righteousness of his legal unity, or maybe he was trying to humiliate the people who were loyal to the Han family in the world.

Cao Wei's Taimiao was built on the site of the original Taimiao of the Han Dynasty.

Cao Wei's five virtues are earth, and the martial virtue of the Han Dynasty is fire, and the use of soil to suppress fire also corresponds to the doctrine of the five virtues.

But after so many years in the town, how can the fire of the big han still get stronger and stronger?

Just when Cao Rong was puzzled, a voice suddenly came from outside the temple.

"Your Highness, the Captain asks to see you!"

Hearing this announcement, Cao Rong's face suddenly rose with joy.

It's the master who is here!

For Jia Xu's resourcefulness, Cao Rong has no doubt.

Originally, Cao Rong had already inquired about Jia Xu, but he also knew that Jia Xu was lingering on the sickbed at the moment, so he did not summon Jia Xu in time today.

But what I didn't expect was that Jia Xu would drag the sick body to take the initiative to ask to see tonight.

Cao Rong knew that Jia Xu would be like this, and he must have a good plan to offer.

Thinking of this, Cao Rong hurriedly wiped away the tears on his face, and he bowed deeply to Cao Cao's spiritual position in front of him.

Maybe the eldest father really appeared, so that Jia Xu had tonight's actions.

After paying homage to Cao Cao's spiritual seat, Cao Rong hurriedly got up and walked towards the outside of the temple.

After coming to the outside of the temple, Cao Rong saw Jia Xu lying on the soft sedan chair from a distance.

Due to the darkness of the night, Cao Rong couldn't see the look on Jia Xu's face clearly for a while, but from the several heavy gasps heard in his ears, it was clear that Jia Xu's physical condition was not good at the moment.

It's just that at the moment when he saw Cao Ei appear, Jia Xu still mustered up the few strengths in his body, and bowed to Cao Ei on the soft sedan chair:

"Your Highness."

After hearing Jia Xu's voice, Cao Rong stepped forward quickly.

Before and after coming to Jia Xu, in front of his own master, Cao Rong's face appeared ashamed:

"Lonely regret shouldn't kill that Yang Biaoyou!"

This is the thing Cao Rong regrets the most recently.

In Cao Ei's opinion, if he could hold back the killing intent that day, then Guanzhong would not set off a wave of rebellion in the family.

In this way, the situation in Guanzhong will not be as erosive as it is today.

But after Jia Xu listened to Cao Rong's words, he said comfortingly:

"The far-sighted Emperor Wu is resurrected, and he will definitely behead Yang Biao on that day.

His Highness did not do the right thing. ”

Jia Xu was telling the truth.

After he learned what Yang Biao had done in the mansion that day, even he admired Yang Biao.

In Jia Xu's view, what happened in Chaoyang Hall that day was probably a conspiracy jointly planned by Mi Yang and Yang Biao.

In the face of a conspiracy at the cost of death, what can you do if you see it in advance?

After comforting Cao Rong, Jia Xu immediately said to Cao Rong: "Your Highness does not need to regret the past now, you should plan where to go in the future." ”

Jia Xu's words lifted Cao Rong's spirits.

He hurriedly asked Jia Xu: "In the current situation, Ji will come out, and I hope that my teacher will teach me!" ”

In the face of Cao Rong's sincere inquiry, Jia Xu thought about it and slowly spit out eight words from his mouth: "Persuade the right to be the emperor and move the capital to Yecheng!" ”

When he heard Jia Xu's suggestion, Cao Rong's eyes showed a look of shock.

It seems unbelievable why Jia Xu would make such a suggestion.

Persuading Sun Quan to be the emperor, Cao Rong can express his understanding.

He had such an idea when he sent Hua Xin to Huainan before.

Because if you want to completely bind Sun Quan to Cao Wei, the only way to make Sun Quan emperor is to make Sun Quan the emperor, so that there is no possibility of peace talks between the Han and Sun Quan.

According to the news that Hua Xin sent back a few days ago, Cao Rong knew that although Sun Quan did not have a clear answer at the moment, his attitude was quite ambiguous.

From this point, it can be seen that Sun Quan was tempted by the matter of the emperor.

If Jia Xu's first suggestion coincided with his thoughts, then Jia Xu's second suggestion was greatly unexpected by him.

Since the establishment of the Wei state, the proposal to move the capital has only appeared once.

That was when Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army.

But the proposal to move the capital at that time suggested that the capital of the Han Dynasty be moved, not the Great Wei.

Even so, how much criticism did the discussion of moving the capital at that time cause much criticism among the government and the opposition?

At present, Jia Xu's proposal to move the capital is obviously to suggest that Cao Rong move Cao Wei's capital from Luoyang to Yecheng.

Cao Rong knew that once he made such a decision, it would inevitably cause great turmoil in Cao Wei's territory.

Moving the national capital from Luoyang to Yecheng, no matter how much the reason was whitewashed afterwards, could not hide the essence of fearing the Han army.

Cao Rong blurted out and asked, "Why is this so! ”

Don't look at Cao Rong in the Taimiao, he was worried that Luoyang would be threatened by the Han army, but he was just worried.

Between Luoyang and Chang'an, although Hangu Pass was abandoned by Cao Cao in the early years, Cao Cao still built Tongguan, a Xiongguan.

At that time, Cao Cao spent countless manpower and material resources, and after building Tongguan, he boasted that the danger of Tongguan in Haikou was far above that of Hangu Pass, and he could be 100,000 male soldiers.

During the Battle of Guanzhong, it was Tongguan that easily blocked the pace of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry from continuing to advance eastward.

With this kind of precedent, Cao Ei's inner worries were not enough for him to make up his mind about moving the capital.

But Jia Xu's next words made Cao Rong's thoughts quickly shake.

"Your Highness.

Since ancient times, the national capital has been the place of the henchmen.

If the confidant is safe, then the country will be safe.

Tongguan is a good Naixiong Pass, and the thieves may not be able to capture Tongguan.

But the key is that once the thief leads the army to detain Tongguan, with the current momentum of the thief, it will inevitably cause the hearts of the people in Luoyang to fluctuate.

It will also make people's hearts fluctuate in all parts of the Great Wei Dynasty.

This is all because the center of our dynasty is in Luoyang.

And under the fluctuation of people's hearts, can I recruit troops to continue to rush to the aid of Tong?

Moreover, the reason why His Majesty moved the capital to Luoyang was that in terms of the territory of our dynasty at that time, Luoyang was located in the heart of the territory of our dynasty.

The capital is Luoyang, which can facilitate our dynasty to control the whole world.

But now the loss of Guanzhong's territory has become a fact, in terms of the current territory of our dynasty, Luoyang is located in the border region, far away from Hebei and the Central Plains.

It is not conducive to our DPRK's control of these two strategic points.

When the three emperors were alive, they planned the five capitals for our dynasty.

The first emperor had this plan, precisely considering that if the situation was unfavorable, our dynasty could move the capital to any part of the five capitals, in order to recuperate from the battle in the coming days.

The reason for moving the capital to follow the ancestral system established by the first emperor is why should His Highness be afraid? ”

It's just that even if Jia Xu said the above three reasons, Cao Rong still couldn't make a decision for a while.

Seeing that Cao Rong still had hesitation on his face, Jia Xu continued to say to Cao Rong:

"Looking at the situation in the world today, Mi Yang has the strategy of Han Bai, and this sincerity cannot compete with it.

However, His Royal Highness is also a person who is familiar with history books, don't you know that Han Bai and the others did not die on the battlefield in the end?

Liu Bei is close to old this year, how many years can he still be alive?

With Liu Bei's eloquence, he can have no doubt about Mi Yang's faith, but Liu Chan grew up in the palace wall since he was a child, and the people around him are all eunuchs, how similar to the second emperor of Huan Ling back then!

Mi Yang has the momentum of high merit and mastery, and with Liu Chan's weakness, there will definitely be changes in the politics of the Han Dynasty in the future.

Even if Zhuge Liang is there, Liu Chan will not be suspicious of Mi Yang, but Mi Yang has now been helped by the Kansai family, coupled with the military prestige, he will not always be willing to live under others.

People's hearts are treacherous, and they have never been able to bear to look at them!

What I have to do now is to try my best to preserve the existing territory, on the one hand, to form an alliance with Sun Quan to fight against the Han Dynasty, and on the other hand, to recuperate with the help of Hebei and the Central Plains.

Hebei and the Central Plains are still rich above Guanzhong, and with Sun Quan's alliance, when the great changes against the Han Dynasty come, our dynasty may not have the opportunity to re-unify the world in the future.

All kinds of benefits and disadvantages, with the wisdom of His Highness, will definitely know, and I hope His Highness will not hesitate! ”

In terms of grasping people's hearts, Jia Xu is famous in the world.

And Cao Rong, who has lived in Cao Wei's scheming dye vat since he was a child, feels that Jia Xu's current judgment is quite reasonable.

Mi Yang is a good loyal minister of the Han Dynasty at present, but wasn't the eldest father back then?

But Cao Ei still didn't give Jia Xu's answer clearly, Cao Ei was worried about Cao Pi's body.

Cao Pi's fate was hanging by a thread, if he suddenly heard the news that the capital was going to be moved, not to mention when Liu Bei would die, I am afraid that Cao Pi would immediately have to die of excessive fright.

What's more, Chang'an is still alive at the moment.

What's more, after thinking about it, Cao Rong said to Jia Xu: "Chang'an is a strong city in the world, and there are hundreds of thousands of people in the city, and it is not easy for the thieves to have 100,000 male soldiers to take Chang'an.

A few days ago, Gu also sent Hu Wei General Xu Chu to lead an elite army to aid Chang'an.

Unexpectedly, before Cao Rong's prospect was finished, Jia Xu was so anxious that he almost didn't come up in a breath after learning the news that Xu Chu led the army to Chang'an.

"Your Highness, no, never!"

Jia Xu's excited reaction startled Cao Rong.

Why not?

Seeing that Cao Ei was still confused, Jia Xu eagerly patted the handrail beside him and replied:

"After the First Battle of Wuzhangyuan, Mi Yang did not immediately lead the army to besiege Chang'an, why?

Isn't Mi Yang unwilling to want to be peaceful!

Mi Yang's purpose is to encircle the point to help!

And once the elite soldiers of General Huwei fall under Chang'an City, the hearts of the people in Chang'an City will become more and more turbulent, not to mention, what about Tongguan?

I expect that the reason why Miyang is stationed in Huaili is that one is Chang'an, and the other is Tongguan!

Thinking about it, Mi Yang must have sent an elite army to ambush the outside of Tongguan, waiting for our reinforcements to throw themselves into the net.

Your Highness! Your Highness! ”

Jia Xu's continuous exclamation made Cao Rong suddenly realize.

At the same time, he almost fell to the ground in fright.

"Someone, someone!"

"Quickly issue an edict to General Huwei, so that he must not lead the army into Guanzhong.

Let's go! ”

The attendant beside him hurriedly turned around and left under Cao Rong's angry roar.

Looking at the back of the attendant leaving, Cao Rong hurriedly held Jia Xu's trembling hand.

I don't know if I was comforting myself or Jia Xu, Cao Rong said slowly:

"It's in time, it's going to be in time!"

While Cao Wei was muttering to himself, a cold wind suddenly rose outside Cao Wei's temple.

Because Cao Rong did not close the door of the temple when he walked out of the temple, this cold wind could blow straight into the temple.

Under the howling cold wind, Cao Cao's spirit trembled on the table, and finally fell directly to the ground.

Perhaps this is Cao Cao's revelation tonight.

Doves occupy the magpie's nest?

Hmph, how long can it be occupied?
