Great Wei Nengchen

Unexpectedly, Sun Quanquan disregarded all opinions and promoted Lu Xun, who was only 26 years old, to take over the position of governor, and personally granted the saber, holding the power of life and death, and the world was stunned for a while!

……

As for Cao Wei, Cao Pi made great efforts to govern, showed both kindness and power, and continued to win people's hearts. Finally, he secured the position of King Wei, established a certain prestige, and his ambitions swelled accordingly.

Facing the throne that is close at hand, Cao Pi is distracted, restless, and finally, under the temptation of power, he raises his thigh and prepares to take the last step!

Xuchang City - On the lobby of the Prime Minister's Mansion!

"The ministers pay homage to the Great King - Chitose, Chitose, Chitose!"

"Excuse me, please sit down!"

"Thank you king!"

Cao Pi sits in the upper position, wearing twelve crowns on his head, wearing a gown with black upper and lower red and four-clawed dragon patterns, and a Tai'a sword hanging on his waist. His momentum is as stable as Mount Tai, and he has a faint appearance of an emperor!

This is not surprising, the temperament of a person is rendered by the living environment. Even a rotten beggar with a crooked nose and squinting eyes can become a dragon and a phoenix if he puts on a five-clawed golden dragon robe and lives in the palace for a few years. The watch of the sun!

What's more, Cao Pi has a handsome appearance, a wealthy family, a well-read poem and book, a belly with talent, and has been a king for several years, so he naturally cultivated his temperament!

Cheng Yu, Hua Xin, Dong Zhao, Xin Pi, Xin Ping, Wang Lang, Jiang Ji, Cao Xiu, Cao Zhen, Sima Yi... Dozens of important court officials, after bowing down and saluting, took their seats according to the size of their official position!

However, the first seat on the west side is vacant, which is the seat of the head of the military general. Although the rest of the people are very greedy, no one dares to step forward, even the clan generals like Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen dare not, that position It only belongs to one person, even if they don't come!

In addition, Cao Hong, one of the eight ministers of Gu Ming and the only one remaining among the four great generals of the clan, did not attend this meeting. As for the reason, everyone knows it well!

"Gu called you here today because there is an important matter to discuss, which is related to the prosperity and decline of the country and the country, but before discussing, let's take a look at this thing first!"

"Hiss!--hiss!"

After the meeting started, Cao Pi pondered for a moment, and then, as if he had made up his mind, he took out a memorial from his pocket and asked his attendants to show it to the officials!

The memorial quickly turned around, and all the people who saw it changed their faces. Some showed ecstasy, some frowned, and there was a sound of gasping for air. What was it that made the important ministers lose their composure?

It turned out that a few days ago, a total solar eclipse appeared in the sky in Xuchang, the sun suddenly disappeared, and the earth was plunged into darkness. The people panicked, thinking that the sky dog ​​had stolen the sun, or they beat drums or shouted loudly. , only until the sun reappears.

The Han family believed in the interaction between heaven and man, so the appearance of such an astronomical spectacle should not be taken for granted. Wei Wang Cao Pi personally ordered a large group of warlocks to calculate whether good or bad luck would affect the fate of the Han Dynasty!

The warlocks studied for several days, but failed to predict good and bad fortune, but came up with a few prophecies:

"Ghosts are on the side, connected to each other. In the contemporary Han Dynasty, there is nothing to say. The word is in the winter and the afternoon is in the west. The light moves up and down in two days! '

In all fairness, although a total solar eclipse is an astronomical spectacle, it will happen every ten years. If a person lives long enough and likes to run around, he may see it many times in his life. Yes, it's not surprising!

What's more, the person sitting here today is not a person with a keen mind and a lot of knowledge, and he will not make a fuss about a solar eclipse.

The reason why the important ministers lost their composure was because they guessed that Cao Pi used the discussion of the solar eclipse as an excuse to realize his political ambition of "using the Wei Dynasty and the Han Dynasty to ascend the throne and proclaim the emperor". !

Those few prophecies can also be easily translated: 'Wei Daihan, in Xuchang', as for how it came out, it is easier to guess-the wise man serves the gods!

In fact, everyone in the world knows that the Han Dynasty has existed in name only, and will be replaced by Cao Wei sooner or later, but when it will be replaced, by whom, and how it will be replaced in the end, no one can tell.

Before, many people speculated that Cao Cao's power over the world and his meritorious deeds would definitely dethrone the emperor of the Han family.

Now the opportunity falls on Cao Pi, but his prestige, achievements, abilities...are far inferior to Cao Cao. If my son dares to do something that my father didn't dare to do, can his son really dare to do it and can he succeed?

The civil and military officials looked at each other, secretly thinking about how sure they were in this matter, and what they should do, but no one said anything!

The first person to speak, of course, can be a hero of the dragon and gain countless glory and wealth, but he also has to take a huge risk, and he may end up with no bones left. Those who supported Wang Mang's usurpation back then are a lesson from the past!

"The ancients said: There are no two suns in the sky, and there are no two masters in the people. Now that the dog eclipses the sun, whether it is bad or good, I hope you have an explanation!

This matter is related to Jiangshan Sheji, if there is no discussion today, everyone should not leave, and live in the lonely prime minister's mansion! "

Seeing that the officials were silent, Cao Pi couldn't help feeling angry, and began to speak with heavy words. He had been restless for several months, and finally made up his mind, and he must not fall by the wayside!

"The sun, the son of the emperor of heaven, is equal to the emperor of the world. Now the sun is dark and bright, which means that the new replaces the old, and implies the establishment of a new dynasty, replacing the Han Dynasty!

What's more, the dead tree of the Han Dynasty has long been decayed, and it is thanks to the full support of the former king that it has survived until today. "

……

"Your Majesty respectfully invites you to dethrone the Emperor of Han and become the Son of Heaven. Choose a day to ascend the throne and declare it to the world!"

"The old minister also respectfully invites the king to stand on his own in place of the Han Dynasty, but it is better to delay the enthronement and proclaim the emperor!"

"Old Shangshu has made your lord worry too much. This is a matter of going with the flow, so how can we slow it down?"

"It's not that the old man is worrying too much, but the depth of the water is unpredictable, so be careful to be safe!"

The ministers spoke one after another. On the issue of "replacing the Han with the Wei", everyone unanimously expressed their support, because Cao Pi became the emperor, and he must reward the ministers heavily. Who would object to such a good thing?

But how to replace the Han Dynasty, the ministers have two different opinions:

One faction, headed by Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen, believes that the Cao family has been in power for more than [-] years and has done great merit to the common people in the world. The conditions for replacement are ripe, and they should directly depose the puppet emperor in a quick way!

Then all the people supported, and the officials played, asking Cao Pi to succeed the emperor, and find an auspicious day to hold the enthronement ceremony, and then change the name of the country and the name of the year, and everything will be fine!

The other faction, led by Cheng Yu and Jiang Ji, believes that although the Han Dynasty is exhausted, it is like a centipede, dead but not stiff. It has been passed down for more than 400 years, and its influence is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. some as well!

It is best to divide one step into two steps: first, the civil and military officials will report to the emperor, and say that since King Wei came to the throne, he has been everywhere, benevolent and all things, surpassing the past and surpassing the present.

Then an imperial edict was issued in the name of the emperor, allowing Cao Pi to live in Jianzuo, meet the officials in the south, and deal with military and state affairs. '

The fake emperor's fake is not the fake emperor's fake, but the meaning of acting as the emperor. Before Wang Mang usurped the Han, he had been a fake emperor for more than three years!

Also when Chu and Han were fighting, after Han Xin pacified Qi, he insisted on his hard work and asked Liu Bang to canonize himself as a "false king of Qi", that is, acting as the king of Qi!

And Liu Bang's scheming was deeper, he directly canonized Han Xin as the real king of Qi, and won his full support, so he joined forces and defeated Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu!

There is also the famous fake eunuch Lao Ai, because of his affair with the Queen Mother of Qin, he brags everywhere that he is the "false father" of King Qin Yingzheng, that is, the surrogate father!

In the same way, let Cao Pi be a fake emperor first, and test the reaction of the people in the world. If there are no opponents, or if there are few opponents, they can be suppressed quickly!

Take the remaining half step, hold a surrender ceremony, and justifiably turn the false emperor into a real emperor, and the Great Han Empire into the Great Wei Empire!

On the contrary, if there are many people who oppose it, and some people even raise troops to serve the king and want to maintain the rule of the Han Dynasty, if Bashu and Jiangdong also take the opportunity to attack!

Cao Pi can also take half a step back, resign the title of "false emperor", kill a few unimportant courtiers, and shirk the charges, so as to appease the hearts of the world!

Continue to be the king of Wei in the future, consolidate your strength, increase your prestige, and when the time is right, attack the throne for the second time!

Comparing the two, the first plan is quicker and less troublesome, but it is more dangerous!

The second plan is slow and cumbersome, but it is safe and secure!

The ministers just suggested that the decision-making power is in the hands of Cao Pi, so what will happen to this ambitious king of Wei Qiansui?
