Great Wei Nengchen

The nine sons, Xiao Luo, are the Marquis of Danshuiting!

The ten son Xiao Yuan is the Marquis of Shunyang Ting!

The eleventh son, Xiao Yin, is the Marquis of Beifengting!

The twelve sons, Xiao Lie, are the Marquis of Xinchang Ting!

The thirteenth son Xiao Zhang is Fengyang Tinghou!

The fourteenth son Xiao Chi is the Marquis of Dingyuan Ting!

The above-mentioned marquises are all dutinghous, which are the lowest level among the fifth-class marquises (county marquis, township marquis, Tinghou, Duxianghou, and Dutinghou), with only [-] households living in towns!

In addition, the four daughters, Xiao Chuo, Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi, and Xiao Xiang, were also enshrined as township lords, each leading [-] households in Tangmu Township!

Although the rank of title is a little lower, and the city of food is a little less, but in one day, all eleven sons of a family can be made marquises, and four daughters can be made town lords. This is not only a great honor, but also an unprecedented thing. In addition to the previous position of Grand Master, I am afraid that the past will shine like this!

Those civil and military ministers who were deeply dissatisfied with Cao Pi, most of their anger dissipated at this time, thinking that the emperor still has a bit of conscience, only Xiao Yi, Jia Xu, and Guo Yi turned their eyes, seeing another meaning from it.

They are the fiefdoms of the eleven sons of the Xiao family. They are distributed in Youzhou, Hebei, Guanzhong, Jingzhou, and Huainan. meaning ah!

Fortunately, the children are still underage, and the day when they will go to the fiefdom is still far away, but before the children reach adulthood, Xiao Yi will take care of everything. The sons will definitely go to the four places in the future, but not limited to the Central Plains, but to go The farther the better!

"The concubine and the others from the Xiao family are waiting to thank His Majesty for his grace, long live, long live!"

"Thank God, long live, long live - wow!"

After the imperial decree was read out, the eldest lady Cao Jie led the family members to kowtow and thank them. Even a few children who couldn't speak yelled a few times. It must have meant something!

Facing the direction of the palace, Xiao Yi lightly cupped his hands and bowed, and his evaluation of Cao Pi was much higher in his heart!

Leaving aside his political stance, Cao Pi's scheming, methods, and courage are enough to be a conservative king. The Cao family's fortune is in full swing, and the Xiao family should not be moved lightly!

Next, the Marquis of Wuchou's Mansion held a grand banquet, inviting all courtiers and military officials to celebrate Xiao Yirong's promotion to Grand Master, becoming No.1 in the dynasty!

…………

The issuance of the two imperial decrees eased the conflict between Cao and Xiao, and the Cao Wei regime was stabilized. However, Cao Pi usurped Han and proclaimed himself emperor, so the two major groups of Bashu and Jiangdong could not be unresponsive?

Will Liu Bei and Sun Quan bow their heads and acknowledge Cao Wei's suzerain status, or send troops to the Northern Expedition to fight the rebels to the death?

Or if you follow suit, you also wear a dragon robe and become the emperor on your own territory?

Chapter 1646 Wei Wu Diplomatic War!

According to the rules of the Han family, there is a grand court every five days. After Cao Pi became emperor, in order to show his hard work and love for the people, he wanted to change it to a three-day court, but he was firmly opposed by "a certain important minister"!

The reason is: 'Frequently holding the Great Court Meeting makes the monarch and ministers too exhausted, which reduces the efficiency of work. Only by knowing how to rest can we better handle military affairs! '

Cao Pi couldn't argue, so he had to restore the rule of one dynasty every five days. The name of the important minister cannot be disclosed, but many people have guessed that there is probably only one person in the world who can make the emperor take back his life.

In addition, the Han family held a court meeting. At five o'clock, the sky was dark, and the officials were about to wait outside the Golden Horse Gate. The bells and drums on the tower were ringing, and the ministers were about to line up!

At the dawn of Buddha, the gates of the imperial palace are opened, and all civil and military officials enter one by one. Together, they go to the Qilin Hall to pay homage to the emperor of the Han family and discuss military and state affairs!

However, the grand meeting of the Cao Wei Empire was postponed for an hour and a half, and the palace gates were only opened when the sky was bright.

One word: lazy!

…………

The first year of Huangchu - the [-]th day of the first lunar month, the weather was fine, with a slight breeze and a southeasterly wind!

"Long! Long! --Go to court!"

In the morning, the gate of the imperial palace opened slowly, civil and military officials filed in, and went straight to the Qilin Hall where the court meeting was held. Xiao Yi was naturally at the front, but he didn't walk in, but was carried in.

Don't worry, Xiao Yi is in good health, this is another privilege of his, he can go to court on a shoulder car carried by four people, and he can also ride a horse in the inner court, this is a super treatment that no princes and princes surnamed Cao have. It is also the only one among the civil and military officials!

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"My dearest relatives, you are free from courtesy, and you have made great contributions to the Grand Master. I will grant you a seat in the Golden Palace!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Cao Pi had already sat on the dragon chair, and after the civil and military officials entered the hall, they kneeled three times and kowtowed nine times, shouting long live, Xiao Yi just cupped his hands, and got a seat!

Right in the middle of the imperial steps, there is a couch made of golden nanmu, which is seven feet long and three and a half feet wide. It is covered with velvet cushions, which is soft and comfortable. Shake the fan, bring tea in winter, and massage your muscles and bones along the way!

To tell the truth, Cao Cao had power in the court and was known as the "Uncrowned Emperor", but he never enjoyed this kind of treatment. There are also Liang Ji, Dou Gu, Huo Guang, and Lu Buwei in history... Those are not powerful, but the court is still the same You also have to stand, sit north and face south, and the Golden Palace listens to the government, that's the power only the emperor has!

It can be seen from this that Cao Pi's respect for Xiao Yi is really beyond the limit, but is this kind of respect really good intentions, or is it hiding evil intentions?

After getting along with each other for many years, Cao Pi knows that this brother-in-law is very powerful, both civil and military, black-bellied and ruthless, domineering... His father was difficult to suppress before he was alive, and he himself was no match. In addition, the entire Cao clan is useless. Xiahouyuan's death is the last Well proven.

Since he couldn't force it, he had no choice but to show weakness and give Xiao Yi various privileges, honors, and halos, so as to prevent the Cao and Xiao families from breaking apart, affect the stability of Cao Wei's regime, and shake the dragon chair under his own buttocks!

At the same time, use the conflict of interests to let Xiao's group and the gentry group restrict each other. It is best to have a lose-lose situation, so that the Cao family can reap the benefits of the fisherman!

In addition, putting a greedy wolf in the deep mountains, suffering from hunger and hunger, fighting in the wind and snow, and fighting other wild beasts every day will only make its minions sharper, more vigilant, and its ambition will expand!

On the contrary, if you put this greedy wolf under house arrest in a cage, it will not worry about food and drink, it will not be exposed to wind and rain, and there will be no danger. Over time, it will become more and more fat, lazy, and lose vigilance, and finally become a non-threatening animal. the dog.

Cao Pi thought so, and he did the same thing. He really sent people into the mountains, captured a vicious wolf king, and brought him back in the imperial palace. He sent people to eat, drink, and take care of him. The day a wolf turns into a dog is the time to kill the dog and eat the meat!

However, Cao Pi's insidious thoughts may be able to hide it from others, but it will never be hidden from Xiao Yi's eyes, and he already has a countermeasure: eat when you want, sleep when you want, and all kinds of privileges are welcome!

Because Xiao Yi firmly believed in one thing: a wolf is a wolf, a dog is a dog, and the two should never be confused. In the wolf's blood, there is no gene to be tamed!

Gossip less, the book is back to the main story, the Great Court has begun, something big happened today...

"Report to Your Majesty, Jiangdong's envoy - Zhao Zichi has come and is waiting outside the gate of the palace!"

"Oh, Bi Yan'er has finally sent someone, let Xuan go to the main hall!"

"According to the order!"

"Your Majesty has a decree, Xuan Jiangdong envoy - Zhao Zi will meet... Zhao Zi will meet!"

Diplomacy is always one of the major affairs of the country, so after Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor, he immediately sent envoys to Bashu and Jiangdong to officially announce the news, and persuade Liu Bei and Sun Quan to recognize the current situation and return the land as soon as possible. I will treat you generously , without losing glory and wealth!

Of course, Liu and Sun each governed thousands of miles of land and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses. It was impossible to bow their heads obediently and profess their ministers in a few words. The purpose of Cao Pi's sending envoys was to test the reactions of the two families.

Cao Pi discussed with his confidants, and there are probably three situations:

One is that Liu and Sun bowed their heads and proclaimed their ministers, recognized the status of Cao Wei as the suzerain, and sent people to pay tribute every year, just like the Spring and Autumn Period, the princes respected the emperor of Zhou, this is the best result.

The second is that Liu and Sun refused to be ministers, and they did not dare to become enemies with Cao Wei. They maintained a three-legged situation, and everyone lived their own lives. This situation is not good, but it is acceptable!
