Three Kingdoms lazy man

And Bai Renke was cool in Huainan, and he didn't seem surprised when he got the news that Cao Cao became king. Ren is also very happy, he is a big landlord.

According to Cao Cao, he has now become the king of Wei himself, but the position of the son of the king of Wei has not been established for a long time.

Cao Cao originally had a very good heir, Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang, but Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang died early in order to protect Cao Cao.

As for Cao Cao, there was another candidate who was Cao Chong, who was born to his concubine Mrs. Huan, but Cao Chong was young and intelligent, but weak and sick, and finally passed away early a year ago.

Now Mrs. Bian of Cao Cao has four sons, the eldest son Cao Pi, the second son Cao Zhang, the third son Cao Zhi, the fourth son Cao Xiong, and the second son Cao Zhang is good at wielding knives and guns and leading troops to fight. Cao Cao’s appointment as a son requires him to govern the country and be able to control the officials, while Cao Zhang is not as good as his elder brother Cao Pi and his younger brother Cao Zhi in this regard. Although his youngest son Cao Xiong is very smart, he is too young and sickly. Cao Cao was unwilling to let a frail and sick person be his heir.

And Cao Cao now chooses only Cao Pi and Cao Zhi.

Moreover, Cao Cao knew that Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were fighting for the position of the son, but they were fighting to the death. Cao Pi had Sima Yi's assistance in this aspect, and Cao Zhi was not weak in that aspect, with Yang Xiu's help.

However, every time Cao Cao set out on an expedition, the princes came to see him off.Cao Zhi said his meritorious deeds, and his speech became a chapter, but Cao Pi did the opposite, but wept bitterly in front of Cao Cao.

Cao Cao is a master of playing politics, but he can clearly see the conspiracy behind him. Cao Zhi is more well-behaved, but he is far inferior to Cao Pi in terms of city government and scheming, but Cao Zhi is more benevolent. Cao Pi looks cold-blooded and ruthless. Cao Cao is worried that after his death , Cao Pi will not tolerate his brother.

"It would be great if I could rule the world." At this time, Cao Cao let out a helpless voice of emotion. After all, Cao Cao is almost 60 years old now, and Cao Cao also knows that his time is not long, so he just Hastily promoted to King Wei, as for the current position of son, it also needs to be registered early.

Cao Cao then called Xun You, his counselor, and looked at Xun You in front of him. Cao Cao gently stroked his beard, and asked Xun You in a calm tone: "Now I want to be a son, but I am hesitant now. , I don’t know whether we should establish Zihuan as the crown prince or Zijian as the crown prince?”

"Is the King of Wei asking such things?" Xing Xunyou gently stroked his beard, looked at Cao Cao's heavy face in front of him, and asked Cao Cao in a hoarse tone.

Hearing this, Cao Cao stroked his beard lightly, and said in a hoarse voice, "I am not young now, and it is precisely because of this that I want to ask you what you think."

Xun You thought for a while, then looked at Cao Cao with a serious expression, and finally hesitated, and said to Cao Cao in a hoarse tone: "Wei Wang, in fact, someone can learn from these things a long time ago!"

"Who is it?" Cao Cao looked at Xun You in front of him with a serious expression after hearing such words, and said to Xun You in a hoarse tone.

"King Wei, have you seen the results of Yuan Shao and Liu Biao?" At this time, Xun You looked at Cao Cao with a calm expression, and said to Cao Cao in a soft tone.

"You mean..." Cao Cao said hoarsely, looking at Xun You in front of him.

Xun You looked at Cao Cao looking at him, and said in a hoarse voice: "Since the King of Wei has already understood the meaning of my words, why bother to ask me?"

When Cao Cao heard such words, he burst into laughter immediately, so he ordered his subordinates, civil and military, to report to the emperor as Cao Pi as the son of the world.

After Cao Cao established his son, he took his civil and military men to Yecheng.

Cao Pi stayed in Xuchang as Cao Cao's son. First, he learned how his father handled official documents. In addition, he let his son learn to easily control the entire court as soon as possible.

Chapter 856

However, Cao Cao has now acquired Hanzhong, and the news has spread to Xichuaner. The people of Xichuan heard that Cao Cao has acquired Hanzhong, and they may come to attack Xichuan at that time, and Xichuan will experience war again. At this time, the people of Xichuan are a little flustered stand up.

But Liu Bei got such a thing, so he immediately called his civil and military officers to discuss the matter.

Liu Bei sat on the main seat, looked at his subordinate Wenwu with a serious expression, and asked his subordinate Wenwu in a hoarse voice: "Now, I just got the news that Xiahouyuan's people under Cao Cao's subordinates have captured Hanzhong. , Now this news has reached Xichuan. Everyone in Xichuan is in danger, what should our army do?"

Wen Wu under his command suddenly looked a little heavy when he heard such words, and at this moment, Zhuge Liang stood up from his seat, and then said to Liu Bei in a hoarse tone: "Now, why not send an envoy to Jiangdong?" When Sun Quan sends troops to attack Huainan, and our army sends troops to attack Hanzhong, Cao Cao will inevitably be unable to respond, and our army can take the opportunity to attack Hanzhong."

After hearing what Zhuge Liang said, Liu Bei nodded with a serious expression, then looked at the civil servants under him, and asked in a hoarse tone: "Who is willing to serve as an envoy to Jiangdong to persuade Sun Quan to send troops to Huainan?"

At this time, only one person came out from among the civil servants, Liu Bei looked at this person and his face suddenly became happy. This person was none other than Yiji under Liu Bei.

Yi Ji looked at Liu Bei in front of him, and said to Liu Bei with a heavy tone: "I am willing to go to Jiangdong as an envoy."

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this, so he hurriedly prepared letters and gifts, and ordered Yi Ji to go to Jingzhou first, and then go to Soochow as an envoy.

Yi Ji knew that the matter was urgent, so he quickly left Xichuan with Liu Bei's letter and gifts, then went to Jingzhou, and finally arrived in Jiangdong by boat.

At this time, Sun Quan heard the news that Cao Cao was called the king of Wei, and immediately showed a sneer, and then looked at his subordinate Wen Wu calmly and said: "I never thought that Cao Cao would dare to risk the world's displeasure and become the king of Wei! "

When Zhang Zhao heard what Sun Quan said, his complexion became a little heavy, and then he said calmly to Sun Quan, "Cao Cao has completely occupied half of the world's territory. Even if he proclaims himself emperor, no one would dare to object .”

"I'm a little envious of Cao Cao." At this time, Sun Quan showed a slight smile on his face, then gently stroked his beard, and said with some emotion in his tone.

But at this moment, a soldier rushed outside, looked at Sun Quan with a serious expression, and said in a hoarse voice: "There is an envoy from Xichuan outside who wants to visit Marquis Wu."

"Why did Liu Bei send someone here?" At this time, Sun Quan gently stroked his beard, looked at his subordinates Wenwu, and said with a sigh.

Gu Yong on the side looked at Sun Quan in front of him, then looked at the soldier calmly, and said to Sun Quan in a calm tone: "Now that we have heard that Cao Cao has captured Hanzhong, Liu Bei must be worried that Cao Cao will send troops to attack his Xichuan. , I am afraid that now Liu Bei has sent an envoy, wanting us to send troops to deal with Cao Cao."

"I want to see what Liu Bei's envoys want to do." Sun Quan stroked his beard lightly, looked at the soldiers beside him with green eyes, and said in a hoarse voice.

Not long after, I saw Yiji carefully following the soldiers to Sun Quan.Yi Ji looked at Sun Quan who was sitting in the main seat and all the civil and military officials of Soochow around him, and saluted Sun Quan with a somewhat respectful tone.

At this time, Yi Ji's tone was neither humble nor overbearing, and he said to Sun Quan in front of him, "My envoy, Yi Ji, from Liu Bei's subordinates has come to pay a visit to Marquis Wu."

"Your lord borrowed my Jingzhou. I thought that after I agreed to attack the land of Xichuan, I would return the land of Jingzhou to me in Soochow. Now I have been pushing and procrastinating, and only half of it has been returned. I don't know how your lord has the face. Send someone here." Sun Quan stroked his beard at this moment, looked at Yi Ji in front of him with a calm expression, and said to Yi Ji in front of him with a hint of mockery in his tone.

Hearing these words, Yiji's face suddenly became a little heavy, and then seeing Sun Quan's uneasy expression, he said to Sun Quan in a respectful tone: "Now my lord is mainly worried that the land of Xichuan will not be able to resist it at all. Cao Cao, that's why he only returned half of Jingzhou, if he can win the land of Hanzhong, he will naturally return all of Jingzhou to Soochow."

Hearing these words, Sun Quan looked at Yi Ji in front of him calmly, then hesitated for a moment, and said to Yi Ji in a hoarse voice: "Hehe! Since we are here now, we Ming people don't say dark words, What is the purpose of your master sending you here?"

"Now that the two families have formed an alliance, my lord wants to seize the land of Hanzhong. But Soochow may still be obsessed with Huainan, so why not send troops together so that Cao's army can't take care of it." Yi Ji looked a little heavy at this time Looking at Sun Quan in front of him carefully, he said to Sun Quan cautiously.

Hearing these words, Sun Quan immediately burst out laughing, then looked at Yiji in front of him calmly, and said calmly to Yiji: "What you mean is that you want me to send troops from Soochow to contain them. Live in Cao Cao so that you can take Hanzhong!"

When Yiji heard Sun Quan's words, his expression became a little heavy, and he said to Sun Quan in a hoarse voice: "This is something that benefits the two families. If my lord captures Hanzhong, he will definitely return the other lands of Jingzhou. Yu Soochow."

"You go back and tell Liu Bei about it, and I agree. Then I will naturally send troops to attack Huainan." Sun Quan thought for a while, then stroked his beard lightly, and looked at Yi Ji in front of him with a calm expression. He replied with a hoarse tone.

"Since Marquis Wu has agreed, I'll go back first." Yiji looked at Sun Quan in front of him and agreed to himself, so he said to Sun Quan with a joyful tone and a serious face, and then hurriedly saluted Sun Quan, quickly He left Sun Quan's mansion.

When Liu Bei's envoy had left completely, Zhang Zhao looked at Sun Quan with a sneer in front of him, and said to Sun Quan in a hoarse voice, "Wu Hou, is it true that you plan to send troops to Huainan to help Liu Bei?"

Sun Quan shook his head gently, then looked at the civil and military officials around him, looked at himself with a serious expression, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then said calmly: "Of course I would not do such a stupid thing , Obediently take advantage of Liu Bei, when the time comes, I, Soochow Wu, will only need to walk back and forth along the Yangtze River a little bit, and make an appearance of marching but not attacking, I believe he, Bai Zifu, will understand."

"Marquis Wu, what you said is true." All the officials around heard what Sun Quan said, and replied to Sun Quan with a serious expression.

Sun Quan heard such words, a helpless wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Although he also wanted to lead his army northward to attack Huainan, in his mind, when he thought of Bai Zifu's sneer, he felt Some fear, thinking about Zhou Yu's advice before his death, Sun Quan still gave up such a terrifying idea in his heart.

"I'm afraid that Bai Zifu will take the opportunity to send troops, so what should I do?" At this time, Xue Zong stood up from his seat, looked at Sun Quan with a serious expression and asked.

"Go and prepare some Jiangdong specialties for me, and send them to Huainan Baizifu." Sun Quan thought for a while, and then calmly said to the guards beside him.

When the guard heard what Sun Quan said, his eyes widened immediately, and he looked at Sun Quan in front of him in disbelief.But looking at Sun Quan's cold face, the guard nodded quickly and left quickly.

At this time, Yiji, as the envoy, thought that he had persuaded Sun Quan to send troops, so he left Jiangdong quickly, passed Jingzhou on the way, and then quickly returned to Xichuan to report the matter to Liu Bei.

Hearing this, Liu Bei was overjoyed and felt a little more at ease, so he immediately called his subordinates to discuss how to attack the land of Hanzhong, and strive for this opportunity to take the land of Hanzhong as his own territory.
