................................................

"Book of Filial Piety" is a work of Confucian ethics. It is listed as one of the thirteen classics of Confucianism. It is said that it was written by Confucius.

Since the Eastern and Western Han Dynasties, filial piety has been used to rule the world. From the top to the high officials and dignitaries, down to the Li people, whoever violates filial piety will be punished by everyone in the world, even the emperor. The word "filial piety", such as Emperor Xiaowen, Emperor Xiaojing, Emperor Xiaowu...all of them regard themselves as filial sons and grandsons!

Since he was 13 years old, Cao Pi has assisted his father in sorting out official documents. Under the influence of his ears and eyes, he has practiced good calligraphy, with iron and silver hooks. The method is rigorous, and the charm of the font is [-]% similar to his father Cao Cao!

In fact, Cao Pi kept his hand secretly. If he imitated it with all his strength, his handwriting would be [-]% similar to Cao Cao's, and it would be almost a fake. Once it came to an emergency, he would be able to write orders in the name of his father, order the three armies, or tamper with the edict and steal the sky. !

"Second son is filial to his parents and friendly to his brothers. He really has the demeanor of a sage, and he will become a great weapon in the future!"

"Second Young Master's calligraphy is neutral and peaceful, with distinct ripples, the deep essence of official script, and even more of the charm of 'feibai'!"

"After Cai Bozhe died, it was hard to see Fei Bai again. Now, there is probably only everyone Cai who has this writing skills!"

................................................

The character of filial piety is as big as the sky, who dares to disobey it, even if the writing is uglier than a dog crawling, everyone has to hold their noses and praise, not to mention Cao Pi's superb calligraphy, which is indeed admirable, and there are even more experienced civil servants, discussing with each other The way of calligraphy!

'Feibai' is a kind of calligraphy, known as the phoenix head and swallow tail, its momentum is like flying, and the strokes are white with ribbons. It was created by the great Confucian Cai Yong, and it is highly respected by the calligraphy circle.

When Dong Zhuo was in chaos, Cai Yong died in a coup in the palace, which made people sigh. In today's world, only Cai Wenji has the true biography of her father and can write beautiful Feibai. It is a pity that she was hidden by Xiao Yi's golden house. , It's rare to show up in a leisurely manner, and it's even more difficult to find a word of gold!

Cao Cao also nodded frequently, and was very satisfied with the performance of his second son. Regarding the issue of heirs, he had two major concerns. One was that his sons were too young and lacked prestige, so it was difficult to deter arrogant soldiers. , brotherly killing each other, consuming the fundamental strength of the Cao family!

Among the many sons, Cao Pi is the oldest, shrewd and capable, and diligent in government affairs. The brothers are very good, even if they sit in a big position, they will treat all the brothers well!

"Haha! - The dogs are so ignorant, it's a joke for everyone. As for the marriage, please let 'Fuminhou' choose for himself!"

Cao Cao favored his second son, but he didn't show it, and he was not eager to establish a reserve. First, he wanted to cultivate Cao Pi, sharpen his character, and exercise his ability, so that he could take on great responsibilities in the future!

In addition, in the mind of the traitor, there is a very good heir, talented and intelligent, no one can compare him, but he is too young. If he lives another 20 years, he must be cultivated to become a holy master. I am afraid that the sky will fail. ah!

"Is this... this?... This old man has to think about it!"

The question was pushed back again, Zhen An scratched his head anxiously, but couldn't make a decision, it was related to the lives of the whole family, so he had to secretly look at Xiao Yi, his eyes were full of pleading!

The matter of establishing a reserve was too sensitive, Xiao Yi guessed a lot in his heart, but he didn't dare to express it, so he could only pretend that nothing happened, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and shook his index finger at the same time!

"My lord, the Prime Minister, the elders and the younger are orderly. It has been like this since ancient times. Although the Zhen family is a merchant, they are also familiar with historical etiquette, so they dare not go beyond the rules!"

Seeing the shaking index finger, Zhen An suddenly understood that the traitor's favorite heir turned out to be the second son-Cao Pi, as long as he married him, the family would be rich and powerful for decades!

But, the old fox is very cunning, he didn't say it directly, but moved out the rules of 'orderly seniority', the second son is not married yet, how can the third and fourth sons have the nerve to marry a wife?

"Haha! -- Fu Minhou has a profound heart and a resourceful man. No wonder he is rich in the world. From now on, we will be in-laws!"

Cao Cao laughed for a while, and then gave an order: let Cao Pi and Zhen Dao make an appointment to marry, and give a pair of white jade as a certificate, and wait until Youzhou is conquered and the army triumphs, then let the two officially get married!

The 'New Year's Eve Banquet' has become an 'Engagement Banquet', which can be described as double happiness, and all the ministers came forward to toast, congratulations to Cao Pi for marrying a beautiful woman and giving birth to a precious son early, and congratulations to Cao Cao for his grandchildren and prosperous blood!

The crowd mingled with each other and drank happily until midnight. Most of the officials, civil and military, were drunk, and then they returned home with all their heart's content!

Chapter 1071 The ice and snow melt, and the war starts again!

After New Year's Eve, it is the beginning of spring. The east wind blows, the ice and snow melt, the earth warms up, and all things recover. The people who have endured a winter finally show bright smiles. Spring has arrived and everything will be better!

After a few days, there was good news. First of all, the weather turned warm, the river surface thawed, and the water transportation was unimpeded. Zhangshui...was sent to Yecheng by boat, further alleviating the food problem!

Along with the fleet, there are also a large number of armor, weapons, arrows, tents... enough to support hundreds of thousands of Cao's troops and continue to attack north.

Secondly, the Qiang Zhonglang General Yan Ming led thousands of men to drive 100 horses, [-] strong cattle, and [-] million fat sheep. , finally arrived near Ye City!

"Boom!--moo-moo!--baa-baa!"

....................................

All of a sudden, horses neighed, strong cattle roared, and fat sheep screamed. Millions of huge herds covered dozens of miles. The livestock are all dead, and the people are worrying about the spring plowing. Now that there is enough animal power, it really is a "timely rain"!

Half of these horses, cattle and sheep came from Shandan pasture. When Xiao Yi pacified Xiliang, he killed the two tribes of Di and Jie, took the pasture of Qilian Mountains as his own, and left behind millions of camels, horses and cattle. Sheep, let people take good care of them, as the land of livestock for the big man!

A few years have passed, and the ranch is on the right track. Every year, it produces 100 war horses, [-] camels, [-] strong cattle, and [-] million fat sheep, which are continuously sent to the mainland of the Central Plains. And the people opened up wasteland and farmed land, which played a huge role!

The other half was contributed by the various tribes of the Western Qiang, which can be called a generous donation. The great chief Zhelan also wrote a letter, which contained a lot of ambiguous words, hoping that Xiao Yi would take time to visit Xiliang. The two daughters are very happy. I miss my father, and I miss my husband very much!

Along with the letter, there are two little lambs, which are pure white, lively and cute, and are taken care of by special personnel. It is said that they are the pets of the two daughters, and they are given to their father as a gift!

"Hehe! - It's true that the daughters miss their father, and it's not true that the little she-wolf misses her husband. She probably misses my things again. Whenever there is trouble, she will talk about her daughter. She really won't change it!

However, after a heavy snowstorm in winter, all the tribes of Xiqiang were also affected. Countless people and animals died of freezing, and they donated hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep. "

Caressing the pure white lamb, Xiao Yi also felt a burst of emotion, called Yan Ming into the big tent, and asked about the situation of the daughters in detail, how tall they are, whether they have gained weight, what they like to eat... babbling, endlessly!

"The two eldest ladies are very good, very good... No one is better than them, but they are a little naughty!"

Yan Ming had a clumsy mouth and cheeks, and he didn't know what to say. He just stretched out two thumbs to show that the two girls are all well. They have the beauty of their mother and the bravery of their father!

Of course, he didn't tell the truth completely. The two girls are not a little naughty, but very naughty. The older one is already four years old, and he is extremely energetic. There is nothing she dares to do, and she has beaten all the boys of the same age, and has never met an opponent. She is known as the "tribal overlord flower!" '

The youngest is more than two years old. She can talk and walk. She follows her sister all day long, shouting and cheering and acting as an accomplice. A dozen maids can't stand them. Once she stole a pony and wanted to go to the Central Plains. Look at my father, fortunately the guards found out early, otherwise he would have slipped out of the Xiqiang camp!

After confirming that his daughters were safe and sound, Xiao Yi finally felt relieved, and asked someone to prepare a batch of refined salt, cloth, ironware, and medicinal materials, and sent them to the 36 departments of Xiqiang, which was regarded as a reward for them!

I also found cork, carving knives, and paints, and made a large basket of kittens, puppies, ponies, and villains... lifelike and lifelike, and gave them to my two daughters to play with and cultivate their love!

Another letter was sent back to Zhelan, asking her to take her daughter to Xuchang in time, and wait until her class teacher triumphs, so that the family can be reunited, and then "clean up" her well, maybe she will give birth to a son!

As the largest rancher, Xiao Yi has the right to dispose of private property. He immediately issued an order: the horses should be sent to the barracks to supplement the consumption of the war, and the cattle and sheep would be distributed to hundreds of thousands of refugees for returning home!

After the average distribution, each family can get a strong cow or ten fat sheep. For the poor refugees, this is a lot of property. A bite of lamb!

"My lord prime minister - saving the common people has immeasurable merits, he is our reborn parents, reborn parents!"

"Great Sima - donate generously, and his righteousness is so small that he will be rich and powerful, and his children and grandchildren will be full!"

..........................................

The people benefited greatly and were so grateful to Cao Cao and Xiao Yi that they even erected longevity tablets and kowtowed three times a day in the morning and evening. Then, under the arrangement of the officials, they happily returned home with their families and cattle and sheep!

They must return to their original hometown before the "Awakening of Insects", repair farm tools, accumulate fertilizer, then plow the land, plant seeds, water, weed, and exterminate insects...by the time of autumn, they will be able to harvest food and fill their stomachs up!

A heavy snowstorm in winter, although it hurt the people miserably, it also moistened the land, froze the pests to death, and benefited the production of crops. It can be predicted that this year will be a bumper harvest, and there will be no more suffering from hunger and cold!

The weather is getting warmer, the roads are clear, the refugees are returning home, the situation is stable, and the food, armaments, and horses are also ready. Next, it is time to prepare for the Northern Expedition, capture Youzhou, and unify the Central Plains!

............................................................................................................

The General's Mansion - In the secret room, Cao Cao, Xiao Yi, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Xia Houdun, Xia Houyuan, Xu Huang, Yu Jin... gathered together to discuss the strategy of seizing Youzhou!
