Great Wei Nengchen

It is impossible to confer dukes and add Jiuxi, otherwise, when the new king ascends the throne in the future, how to reward this great hero and powerful minister, let's make up for it in other ways!

"At the beginning, the old man and Wuchou agreed to take Changsha County as Huang'er's fiefdom. Unfortunately, the Southern Expedition failed, and Changsha County fell into the hands of the big-eared thief. Now let's use the counties as compensation, which is the hometown of the big-eared thief!

The green fruit and the red fruit come from the same branch, so it is impossible to favor one over the other. Xiao Yao, Xiao Zhan, Xiao Qi, Xiao Feng, and Xiao Chou were all granted the title of Marquis of Tingdu to show the honor and favor of the imperial court! (Dutinghou, the lowest rank of Marquis in the Han Dynasty, only has [-] households in Shiyi, but he is still a Marquis anyway!)

Ma Liu, Daniu, Gao Shun, Dian Wei, Song Xian, Wei Xu, Huang Zhong... more than a dozen generals fought on the battlefield, and they made great achievements. son! "

One county fief, five duting hous, and more than a dozen high-ranking officials are generous. This is the price Cao Cao offered.

"The last general and my subordinates, I would like to thank the Prime Minister for your kindness, and I wish you the best of luck—ten thousand years!"

Xiao Yi was also satisfied with the reward, and hurriedly saluted to pay homage, but what the traitor said next made him fall into a double world of ice and fire again...

"Since ancient times, the founding of the country must be canonized as the crown prince. Among the many heirs of this old man, I don't have to worry about who can take on the important task. Tell the truth!"

"This is..."

Chapter 1421 The battle of Qianlong is extremely dangerous ([-])

The matter of the Cao family's establishment of the reserve is definitely the biggest hole in the world. I don't know how much flesh and blood will be filled in, so all the smart people can't avoid it. Xiao Yi even formulated the six no principles: don't ask, don't participate, don't support, don't Oppose, don't deliberately alienate the Cao family brothers, and don't get too close to any of them!

In the past few years, the brothers of the Cao family continued to fight openly and secretly, and many officials became victims, including some important officials of the court, but the Wuchouhou's family remained unscathed, thanks to Xiao Yi's foresight.

It's a pity that I can't escape the first day of the junior high school, but I can't escape the fifteenth day. Now that the traitor is asking him personally, I'm afraid it won't work if I try to evade it. But how should I answer such a sensitive question?

As far as personal feelings are concerned, Xiao Yi prefers Cao Zhi, who has a brilliant literary talent and a bright heart. If he becomes the prince of Wei, Cao and Xiao will maintain a friendly relationship for a long time to come.

In terms of political ability, Cao Pi is slightly better, insidious, cunning, and good at employing people. Although he is not the talent of a sage, he is still the master of success. More importantly, he is the heir of the traitor!

Don't look at the hesitation of the villain, but when it comes to the critical moment, Cao Pi must inherit the foundation, because Cao Cao is a politician, what he wants is not the cutest son, but the most capable son, so that the great Wei Dynasty can last for a long time Some……

The problem is, Xiao Yi can guess the answer correctly, but dare not say it out. The traitor is suspicious by nature, and hates others to guess his mind. It is hateful to guess wrong, but even more hateful to guess right. How to answer this?

"Why did Wuchou keep silent? Could it be that you don't want to share the old man's worries? You are also the son-in-law of the Cao family, so feel free to speak up if you have something to say!"

"The last general didn't dare to speak out, he just had some thoughts in his heart, so he didn't answer for a long time!"

"What's the matter with those who have no worries, can you tell me about it with the old man?"

…………

It is useless not to answer, Xiao Yi decided to use the most complicated way to give the simplest answer, sometimes talking too much nonsense can save the day!

Seeing Xiao Yi's eyebrows furrowed tightly and his face showing an unprecedented solemnity, Cao Cao also became uneasy. If the answer he got after a while was the same as what he thought, then hello, hello, everyone.

On the contrary, if the person Xiao Yi supports is not his default heir, then he will be in big trouble. With the current situation of the Cao family, it is impossible to eliminate the Xiao family.

"It's okay to talk about it. At the end of the day, I will think about the death of the Great Qin II, and I will think about Yuan Benchu ​​and Liu Jingsheng's father and son!"

"Haha! -- Wuchou can be called a man of far-reaching intellect, and his thinking coincides with the old man's. He thinks well and thinks wonderfully!"

…………

Cao Cao and Xiao Yi looked at each other for a moment, and then they both looked up to the sky and burst out laughing. Both of them are resourceful and knowledgeable about the past and the present.

One of the important reasons for the demise of the Great Qin Empire was that the first emperor did not establish a crown prince, and died on the way of parade, so that Li Si and Zhao Gao tampered with the edict and bestowed the death of the eldest son Fusu, as well as the generals Meng Tian and Meng Yi brothers. The former Hu Hai was the second emperor, which led to chaos in the court and rebellion in the world!

Just imagine, if the first emperor had made up his mind early on to support Su as the crown prince, let him sit in Xianyang City, and establish his own power, even if Li Si and Zhao Gao wanted to make trouble, they might not be able to shake the foundation of the country!

Similarly, the collapse of the two major cliques of Hebei and Jingzhou was certainly caused by Cao Jun's strong troops attacking the city and plundering land all the way, but Yuan Shao and Liu Biao also made a huge mistake on the issue of successors!

The first mistake was indecision, which led to the struggle among the various schools, which resulted in huge internal friction; Can last for a few more years!

Xiao Yi even cited two examples, which also expressed two meanings: one, now that the Caoying Group has not regained its vitality, in order to stabilize people's hearts, it is best to abide by the principle of succession, make the eldest son-Cao Pi the eldest son, and cut off the root of internal divisions.

Second, not only must Cao Pi be established as the eldest son, but also the canonization should be carried out quickly, so as to prevent the two sons from continuing to fight and consume the power of the Cao Ying group. If the gentry family or local princes are involved, things will be in big trouble!

After Mrs. Bian cried and complained, Cao Cao learned from the painful experience and made up his mind to set up a reserve. Today, what Xiao Yi said was completely in line with what he thought, so he naturally won the hearts of the people.

In a good mood, Cao Cao felt relaxed, as if he was several years younger at once, and another problem arose, what should Cao Zhi do if Cao Pi was made his son?

"If there is a heir to establish a heir, it is an ancestral precept for thousands of years, and I dare not violate it. Moreover, Zihuan is filial, shrewd and capable. Although he does not have the power to forge ahead, it is no problem to keep his foundation." .

However, how should Zijian be placed? He is quite influential among the scholars, and there are many tigers and wolves around him. I am afraid that after a hundred years, the old man will still inevitably fight between brothers? "

While speaking, Cao Cao's face was gloomy, as if he had made some kind of determination. Since ancient times, in the family of ruthless emperors, if two sons competed, for the sake of the stability of the country, they would often enshrine one and abolish the other!

The most typical one is Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty. He first established the eldest son Liu Rong as the crown prince, but later felt that this son was weak and incompetent and not enough to prosper the Han Dynasty, so he abolished him as the king of Linjiang and changed his tenth son Liu Che to be the crown prince. Later Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

He also worried that after a hundred years, Liu Rong's rebellion as the former prince would threaten Liu Che's throne and cause civil strife in the country. Therefore, Emperor Han Jing ordered his confidant, Zhidu, to force Liu Rong to death under the pretext of occupying the Gaozu's ancestral temple.

As a father, forcing his own son to death is really disgusting, but as a monarch, for the sake of the overall stability of the country and preventing the people from falling into the flames of war, he will not hesitate to kill his relatives righteously, which is extremely admirable.

Similarly, although Cao Cao does not have the name of an emperor, he has the talent of an emperor and the power of an emperor. He understands the truth of giving up his family for the country. Death, thinking about it in this way...

"The tiger is the king of beasts. Who dares to touch its prestige, only the love between father and son. Looking back step by step, Zihuan and Zijian are both the sons of the prime minister. The palms and backs of the hands are all flesh. Make one the son of the Great Wei, and the other will be canonized." Bar!

Qingzhou and Xuzhou are rich and prosperous, far away from court disputes and fighting battlefields, but there is a county in it, as Zijian's fiefdom, let him have a romantic life!

In the future, unfortunately, as the prime minister said, there will be a estrangement between the brothers, and the general will definitely mediate in the middle. Even if he sacrifices the official title, he must keep Zijian safe and sound, let alone let him do anything wrong! "

Unexpectedly, instead of making trouble, Xiao Yi defended Cao Zhi, and even acted as his guardian to keep him safe throughout his life. This seemed unbelievable, but it was actually wonderful.

People call Cao Cao a "treacherous hero in troubled times", not only because he is talented, insidious and cunning, but also his character is extremely complex and fickle. Almost every event and person changes, changing all the time...

Just now when discussing the establishment of a heir, Cao Cao, from the perspective of a king, chose Cao Pi, who he doesn't like very much but has outstanding abilities, as his son for the sake of the Cao family's foundation to last longer!

Next, Cao Cao was worried that after a hundred years, the two sons would kill each other, and wanted to take precautions in advance, but at this time, the traitor changed from a cruel king to a kind father!

Under such circumstances, if Xiao Yi proposed to put Cao Zhi under house arrest, or exile him three thousand miles away to fend for himself in a barren land, the treacherous hero would not only be unhappy, but might even have murderous intentions, just like an old man protecting a calf.

Therefore, Xiao Yi proposed to give Cao Zhi a fief. Qingzhou and Xuzhou are located on the coast, and the cities are rich and far away from the border, so there are not many garrisons. Where is Cao Zhi?

More importantly, after a hundred years of treachery, Cao Pi and Cao Zhiruo had a dispute. Among the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, Xiao Yi was the only one who had the qualifications, strength, and strategy to mediate. He was the No. 1 general in the world. , and also the brother-in-law of the two!

In other words, if you want Cao Pi to have a stable foundation and Cao Zhi to be safe and sound, you must first ensure that Xiao Yi is safe and sound. Cannibalism!

"After a hundred years, I will entrust Wuchou to Jiangshan Sheji and the descendants of the Cao family. I hope you will take good care of them. Don't forget what I said today. I am very grateful!"

"Serving for the Prime Minister, the last general will die!"

Cao Cao was extremely satisfied with Xiao Yi's two replies, he clasped his fists together and bowed deeply, obviously entrusting his affairs to the latter.

But what worries Cao Cao the most is not that he canonize the prince of Wei, nor that his sons can kill each other, but that this "greedy wolf" in front of him, if he doesn't restrain him, he will surely gain from it!

Therefore, the traitor secretly made up his mind that before he died, he had to devise a plan to firmly restrain Xiao Yi and let him be a courtier of the Great Wei forever, otherwise he would not be able to close his eyes while lying in the coffin!

After discussing two important matters in a row, Cao Cao and Xiao Yi felt much more relaxed. At this moment, someone presented a wild sheep, which was fat, big and strong, and immediately bled, skinned, and disemboweled... After cleaning, put it on the bonfire and grill it. .
