Great Wei Nengchen

Cao Cao did not treat this great hero badly: he set up a temple to sacrifice, his two sons were made marquises, a county territory, and the same rest with the country... It is also a unique reward. If Guo Jia knows the secret, he will be grateful!

Then again, the crying of the dead is for the living to see. Cao Cao treated Guo Jia so favorably, and the civil and military officials would definitely work hard when they saw it. Cao Cheng was so good to the dead, how could he treat the living badly?

Of course, regarding Guo Jia's death, Xiao Yi also felt extremely heartbroken. Although he didn't go out of the city to worship the 'clothes tomb', he took off his favorite black robe and put on a white one, which can be regarded as paying tribute to his friend!

Besides, this list of meritorious deeds and rewards is fair and just, without any omissions, but between the lines, Xiao Yi saw several deep meanings:

The first level: Cao Cao's suspicion has become more and more intense, so Ma Liu, Daniu, Dian Wei, Gao Shun, Song Xian, Wei Xu... Xiao Yi's confidants and generals were promoted to rank, Seal your wife and son!

Some people can't help asking, if Cao Cao was really suspicious, shouldn't he cut Xiao Yi's rank and then suppress his party members in the army? Why did he do the opposite, instead of suppressing these generals, he promoted them?

This is where the traitors are brilliant. Ma Liu, Daniu, Gao Shun... have heavy troops in their hands and brilliant military exploits. If they are forcibly suppressed, not to mention countless grievances, they will unite as one and follow Xiao Yi to fight against Cao Cao. Home!

On the contrary, if high-ranking officials are bestowed with generous salaries, it will not only win the hearts of the generals, but also increase the prestige of the traitor, and also disintegrate Xiao Yi's clique!

The reason is also very simple, the higher the status of a general, the more rebellious and rebellious he will be. If Ma Liu, Daniu, Gao Shun and others can compete with Xiao Yi in terms of official positions and titles, will they still obey orders? , Xiao's group will be self-defeating!

The traitor's technique of splitting and disintegrating can be said to be extremely brilliant, but he didn't understand one thing, Xiao Yi can command the generals, besides the official position of Grand Sima, the title of Marquis of Wushou, there is also a deep brotherhood- -Officials can be won, but friendship is hard to break!

The second layer: With Guo Jia's death, Cao Cao was grieving, and began to look for a new candidate to restrict Xiao Yi's power and assist the 'second generation of Cao'. This person is Sima Yi!

Sima Yi is versatile in both literature and military affairs, has a deep city, and is not under Cao Cao's treachery, so the world calls him "the tomb tiger". Xiao Yi is also quite jealous, always keeps him by his side, and always takes precautions to prevent Sima Yi from getting a chance!

I didn't expect that people are not as good as heaven, this 'Tonghu' is still out of the mountain, the official position of Literati is not big, and it is nothing more than drafting proclamations in the prime minister's mansion, but there are two advantages: one is to get in touch with military and political secrets, and learn how to handle state affairs The second is to accompany Mr. Cao's family to study and form a classmate friendship!

This official position is similar to that of the prince's companion. He usually does not show his talents and has no chance of promotion. However, after the prince ascends the throne, he must reuse the people around him, and even become a general. Han Yan, a famous official in the history of the Han family , Zhang Qian... are all from the prince's companionship, so it can be seen that when Sima Yi entered the prime minister's mansion, Cao Pi must have contributed behind the scenes!

Cao Pi is treacherous and Sima Yi is insidious. If the two guys get together, something will happen. Xiao Yi can't help but be vigilant. If there is a chance, he really wants to send someone to assassinate 'Tomb Tiger', just because he is afraid of getting burned!

The third level of meaning: Cao Cao couldn't bear his ambition, and was ready to break the taboo of the Han family and advance to the position of duke. This can be seen from his award to Xiao Yi - Marquis of Wuchou County!

According to the Han family system, officials have [-] ranks of titles, of which the [-]th rank is Guanneihou, and the [-]th rank is Chehou. After avoiding the taboo of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che, he was changed to Liehou, also known as Tonghou!

All the Marquises have Shiyi. According to the size of the Shiyi, they are divided into County Marquis, Township Marquis, and Tinghou. Xiao Yi was originally a Wushou Township Marquis. Because of his great achievements in the Northern Expedition, he was promoted to County Marquis, which has reached the peak of the title. And Cao Cao's title is - Marquis of Wuping County, which means that the Weng and his son-in-law are equal!

Cao Cao is a traitor in troubled times. Except for the emperor of the Han family, he will not be inferior to anyone, and he will not keep pace with others. There is only one - to become a duke, or a prince!

The problem is that Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty-Liu Bang killed the white horse as an oath: "No one with the surname of Liu can be king, no one with the surname of hero can be named a marquis, and those who violate it will be attacked by the world." In the history of the Han family for more than 400 years, there has only been one duke : An Han Gong - Wang Mang!

Wang Mang's name was "An Han Gong", but he did something to usurp the Han, poisoned Emperor Ping of Han, deposed Ru Ziying, and established a "New Dynasty". The story of 'The Revenge of the White Python'!

Since then, the duke has become a taboo. No matter how great the minister's merits are, he can only be the marquis. Once Cao Cao ascends to the duke position, it means that he will follow Wang Mang and change the dynasty again!

In the original history, Cao Cao took a crucial step when he was 19 years old in the 59th year of Jian'an. The land is the land!

The sudden birth of Xiao Yi caused a butterfly effect. The current strength of the Caoying Group is much stronger than in history, with counselors like clouds, warriors like rain, millions of soldiers under his command, and no worries. This also stimulated Cao Cao's ambition made him not want to wait any longer!

"Tomorrow's court meeting, all the ministers will gather in the Qilin Hall to discuss a major national event. Da Sima ranks among the three princes, and is the pillar of the court. Be sure to attend!"

After a while, Man Chong delivered another piece of news. Although his words were polite, his tone was firm, which obviously meant what Cao Cao meant!

Breaking the system of the Han family and ennobling Cao Cao as a Duke, such a major political change, must have a leader who will lead all the civil and military officials to make admonitions.

Cao Cao cherished his feathers, so naturally he wouldn't go into battle shirtless, lest he be called a "threatening emperor", maybe he would pretend to be sick and hide, but Xiao Yi is the only one who has this weight among the officials!

This is a big scapegoat. If Xiao Yi really goes to court, he will definitely bear the infamy of 'domineering and intimidating the emperor'. It will be quite ugly to write it in the history books in the future!

"In the seventh year of Jian'an, the court was in turmoil. There was a treacherous minister-Xiao Yi, and his subordinates, who threatened the emperor and caused chaos in the court, making the people of the world miserable. Countless righteous people threw themselves into the vigorous resistance...... "

Xiao Yi shook his head violently, as if he had heard that his name and a very obscene image appeared in the introduction of a martial arts film several years later, and was killed under the bed or in the bathroom by a beautiful knight in the end. !

After finally crossing over, what will be left in the history books in the future must be a good name and a good name, not a bad name or infamy. I won’t do such stupid things as taking chestnuts out of fire!

But if Xiao Yi doesn't go to court, he will offend Cao Cao again. This is a matter of political alignment, and he can't be sloppy at all. In his heart, Xiao Yi also supports Cao Cao to be the Duke, King, and even ascend to the throne of God!

The matter of powerful ministers usurping the country is like crossing a turbulent river. The resistance is very high. If you pass the river and mountains, you will be buried in the belly of the fish if you cannot pass it. However, there is no successful example in the history before the Han Dynasty!

(Tian's attack on Qi is not counted, it is a local vassal state, and the usurpation of the throne by powerful ministers has occurred, and under the situation of national unification, there has been no successful example!)

Let Cao Cao wade in the water ahead to try out a safe route, and Xiao Yi will follow suit in the future, but it will be much safer and save a lot of effort!

The problem is, Cao Cao is also quite cunning. While wading forward, pebbles keep coming out, to test the depth of the water. Xiao Yi is the heaviest one. As long as he throws it into the river, there will be no more Early days!

Qin Shihuang, He Qiangliang,

Open my house, according to my bed,

drink my wine, spit my syrup,

eat my rice, think food

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

In the midst of a dilemma, a childish voice sounded outside the study. It turned out that the eldest son - Xiao Xuan was playing. This child is very smart. It is said that he has the ability to remember with both eyes and ears. He is reciting the nursery rhymes he just learned!

Looking at his precious son, Xiao Yi immediately made up his mind... "Please report back to the Prime Minister, there must be someone from the Xiao family attending the grand meeting tomorrow!"

Chapter 1134 Xiao Lang's godson, both sides!

"Report to the Great Sima, Xun Lingjun and Xun Shizhong asked to see him in front of the mansion, saying that there is a matter of the survival of the country!"

"Tell Wen Ruo and Gong Da that Wuchou is sick and cannot see guests, please go back for now!"

"The two gentlemen sat cross-legged and said they would not see Da Sima today, so they slammed their heads into the door!"

"Alas!--The building is about to fall, and there is no way to support it alone. Why do they bother, please come in, gentlemen!"

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

There was another wave of unrest, Mao Jie was sent away, and Xun Yu and Xun You came back. Xiao Yi wanted to take advantage of his illness to escape, but he didn't expect that the two honest gentlemen would also use rogue tactics to force this At this point, I had no choice but to open the door to welcome guests!

Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Xun Yu, and Xun You are the four strategists of Cao Ying. The former two are resourceful and fought with the army, while the latter two are experienced in planning the country and handling internal affairs.

The army's Northern Expedition lasted more than two years. It had to fight the enemy and rescue the victims. It consumed countless manpower, material resources, and financial resources. It was only thanks to Xun Yu and Xun You's hard work day and night, and four-party financing, that the supply of the army was guaranteed. The skinny, even vomiting blood!

Therefore, when commenting on meritorious deeds, "Er Xun" ranked fourth and fifth. One was granted the title of Longevity Township, and the other was awarded the title of Lingshu Township. They each received [-] households. No one objected, and no one was jealous!

"There are treacherous people in the court who intend to break the ancestral system of the Han family. This is an act of no king and no father. I swear to the death that I will not agree!"

"The life and death of a big man depend on a single thought. As the founding father of the country, Xiao Lang must not sit idly by!"

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

After a while, Xun Yu and Xun You walked in quickly, their eyes were red and their hair was disheveled... There were bloodstains on their clothes. The two gentlemen always paid attention to their appearance, but now they are in such a mess!

It's no wonder that 'Er Xun' is so anxious. Although they are counselors in Cao Ying, they are loyal to the Han and the emperor in their bones. The most typical example is that they are in Cao Ying and their hearts are in Han!

The political ideal of "Er Xun" is to assist a hero, pacify the princes, appease the people, rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, and then return the highest power of the country to the emperor Liu, composing a story of monarchs and ministers that has been passed down through the ages. Great political ideals, they have been fighting for more than ten years!
