Great Wei Nengchen

Facing the temptation of power, Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong all had brilliant eyes and slightly raised their hands. As long as they receive the military talisman and seal ribbon, they will be uncrowned kings!

What's more, Cao Cao's life and death are uncertain, Mrs. Bian's generation, several sons are young and superficial, and it is difficult to deter the arrogant soldiers. As uncles, they follow the example of Zhou Gongfu to become king. Nephews, it is reasonable to say the past!

But halfway through raising the hand, they all froze in mid-air. The four of them looked at each other, sighed in their hearts, and obediently withdrew it, then knelt down on one knee to salute, saying repeatedly that they dare not, dare not!

Although the four of them are not resourceful, they are not fools either. They know that the weight of power in the world and the weight of the country and the country cannot be shouldered by them. Moreover, there are two major reasons that make them dare not accept it...

For one thing, when it comes to strategy, military exploits, prestige... Xiao Yi is far above them, and if he dare not take over the power, how dare they overstep? It's just a ridicule!

Second, there is only one supreme authority, but there are four generals in the clan, and they are divided into two surnames. No matter who takes over the power, the other three will definitely not accept it. If it is not handled properly, it may lead to fratricide!

Therefore, one advance is worse than one retreat. It is better to put away your ambitions and obediently be a minister. Anyway, no matter which nephew is in the position, they are all respected uncles, and they must be rich and prosperous!

Xiao Yi swore to be a loyal minister and would not take over the seal, and several clan generals also backed down one after another. Under such circumstances, only one of the several princes in the Prime Minister's Mansion was chosen to be his son to step into his father's career!

However, after the fall of the eldest son Cao Ang, Cao Cao has never established an heir. Now that half of his foot has stepped into the gate of hell, it is even more impossible to write a will and make a will. The heir of the Caoying Group can only be elected by everyone!

The more than [-] sons of the Cao family are all intelligent people, so naturally they can't be elected indiscriminately, but according to the ancient law: rule the world and establish the eldest son-in order to achieve long-term peace and stability, and establish virtuous people in troubled times-in order to bring peace to the world!

Among the four princes, Cao Pi is the oldest. If he is established by the law of the prince, he must be the heir. Thinking of this, everyone's eyes gathered and stared at the second son. Showed a flattery!

Under the gaze of everyone, Cao Pi was also very excited, and couldn't help taking half a step forward, but felt someone stealing his clothes, and glanced out of the corner of his eye, it turned out to be his confidant official - Sima Yi!

Sima Yi has been hiding in the dark, observing the expressions of everyone in the tent, and has a clear understanding of the situation. He shook his head slightly, glanced at the back tent, and then looked at Cao Pi, making a gesture of calm down !

I wanted to make a few more gestures, but suddenly felt a chill like a sword falling on my neck, Sima Yi quickly looked around, and found Xiao Yi's gloomy gaze, which made him break out in cold sweat, I took a few steps back, and I didn't dare to make small moves anymore!

"Mother, don't be sad, let's drink a cup of calming tea first, father is auspicious, he has his own fortune, and he will surely turn the crisis into safety!"

Cao Pi was a quick-witted person, and he understood it in an instant, but he had already stepped out, and it was impossible to take it back. He picked up a cup of fragrant tea, handed it to his mother, Mrs. Bian, and whispered a few words of comfort , and then return to the original position, everything is done seamlessly!

His father's life and death are uncertain, and his mother's heart is broken. It is indeed not the Son of Man's act to rush to seize power at this time. Not only will it not help the superior, but it will lose the hearts of the people, not to mention that he is not sure of the position of the heir!

Fighting for hegemony in troubled times, the strong are respected, and for the benefit of the country, some courageous monarchs will often break the law of succession when they are dying, and choose the smartest and bravest son to inherit their inheritance!

For example, during the Spring and Autumn Period, Qin State was located in Xichui and its national strength was weak. It was repeatedly bullied by the Central Plains overlord Wei State and lost a large area of ​​land. Therefore, when Qin Xiangong was dying, he abandoned his eldest son Yingqian and named his younger son Ying Quliang who was more wise. , is later Qin Xiaogong!

After Qin Xiaogong succeeded to the throne, he implemented reforms by emphasizing the use of Wei Yang internally, rewarding farming wars, moving the capital to Xianyang, and strengthening centralization; externally, he made peace with Chu, signed a treaty with Han, and joined forces with Qi and Zhao to attack Wei, and regained the territory of Hexi. Since then, the national power has grown stronger and stronger, laying the foundation for the unification of Qin!

Although the Cao family is in full swing, there are still feudal lords on the outside, and the loyal Han family are rebelling inside. In addition, the arrogant soldiers are difficult to control. The smartest person in the world is the child prodigy-Cao Chong!

Cao Chong is extremely talented, hard-working and studious. Although he is only eight years old, his IQ is no different from that of ordinary middle-aged people. He also has a benevolent heart and often pleads for those who make mistakes. If he is allowed to grow up, he must be a peerless king. , It can be compared with Qin Huang and Han Wu!

In addition, Cao Chong's foundation is very weak, and he has no real strength. If he assists the young master to rise to the top, the officials will benefit more. Isn't Lu Buwei in history just a rare commodity who can live in, support the weak Qin prince-a stranger, and finally become the prime minister of the Great Qin? of it?

Therefore, some ministers who wanted to be a dragon turned their eyes to Cao Chong, imagining that they would become Lu Buwei's second, but the little guy lowered his head, his body trembled slightly, and looked back from time to time, apparently worried about his father!

Xiao Cao Chong was indifferent, but Mrs. Huan's eyes were hot, and she hugged her precious son tightly, as if she was hugging a rich man. Apart from being charming and enchanting, this woman also has some political ambitions. She has always wanted to replace Mrs. Bian and become the prime minister. Where is the mistress!

But Cao Chong needs the support of civil and military ministers urgently if he wants to rise to the top. Therefore, Mrs. Huan's eyes flickered, and she kept secretly wooing the ministers.

Xiao Yi has a strong army in his hands. If he stands up to support his son, Cao Chong will be able to ascend to the throne and become the next Wei Gong.

It's a pity that Luohua is intentional and flowing water is ruthless, Xiao Yi was unmoved, and sat down directly at the side, neither supporting Cao Pi nor Cao Chong, the most powerful Sima didn't speak, and the others didn't dare to express their opinions casually, all of them Played deaf and dumb!

"Swoosh!... Swipe!... Cough cough!"

For a moment, there was silence in the big tent, people neither spoke nor moved, and some people even squinted their eyes, as if they were about to fall asleep!

But in private, people gesticulate, exchange glances, change faces...the constant silent communication is rich in content and fierce in confrontation, which is no worse than a verbal confrontation!

After all, whether to establish the eldest son, or to establish the virtuous, whether Cao Pi is in power, or Cao Chong will succeed, and Cao Cao, who is lying behind, when will he die, or has his soul returned to the underworld?

"Tat-tat!--report!"

An official from the Prime Minister's Mansion ran in, flustered and out of breath, and after kneeling on one knee to salute, he handed an urgent report to Madam Bian: "There are changes in the city, after the rebellion, gather troops and horses, and besiege the imperial city!"

Chapter 1183 Changes in the city, chaos!

"Pull out the traitors, and help the Han Dynasty—go!"

"Welcome to the emperor, Zhongxing Dahan - kill!"

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

In the middle of the night, outside the imperial city - the flames flickered, and the sound of killing shook the sky. The ruler of the country, who has always shown himself to be elegant, fell down. At this time, he was wearing heavy armor and holding a sword. Surrounded by his sons, he led a force to attack Simamen. I want to enter the palace from here and welcome the emperor Liu Xie out!

The attacking team was quite large, as many as 4000 to [-] people, and the members were quite chaotic. There were soldiers, retainers, and servants from the head of the country's mansion, dead soldiers, rangers, killers recruited at high prices, and foreigners with different appearances. What about the clansmen!

In particular, dozens of blond, blue-eyed, burly slaves from the Western Regions, wearing double-layer fine steel heavy armor and holding extra-large swords, rushed to the front of the team, killing anyone they saw, bloodthirsty and crazy, as fierce as a group of And the beast!

They also tore down a beam, slammed into Simamen, and made a loud rumbling noise. They really used all their strength, because the new owner promised that as long as they entered this big palace, they could regain their freedom Body!

"Defend the palace gates, never retreat a step, kill the traitors, and be rewarded for your meritorious deeds - kill!"

On the other side, under the command of Cao Xiu and Cao Zhen, the forbidden army relied on the favorable terrain, guarded the palace gate, and never retreated. They were all Cao's minions.

At the same time, they sent several envoys to break out of the encirclement with makeup separately, and went outside the city to ask for help; while firmly controlling the harem, they also gathered the emperor, queen, prince, and princess together for proper protection! '

Although the emperor has no real power, he has a status. It is an excellent political signboard. No matter who controls the emperor, he can justifiably-rule the power on behalf of the sky and order the world!

Therefore, the traitor has worked hard to train some confidants, who are placed among the guards, eunuchs, and maids of the imperial city to monitor every move of the emperor and empress. They also have a special task:

Even at the critical moment, it is better to let the emperor "return to the sea" than fall into the hands of others, including Liu's princes, none of them can be left behind!

The poor emperor's family hid in the deep palace, constantly worshiping gods and praying to Buddha, hoping that Fu Wan would bring someone in early, so as to escape the house arrest of the traitor, but they didn't know that when the palace gate was breached, it was the moment of their death!

In this way, one side desperately attacked and the other side swore to resist, only to kill ghosts crying and wolves howling, blood gushing like a spring, and so many fallen corpses almost blocked Simamen...

Under the contact of the Taifu-Yang Biao, civil and military officials loyal to the Liu dynasty and dissatisfied with the Cao family, as well as gentry clan leaders, also organized their troops one after another and rushed to the streets of Xuchang. Divide into three groups to attack important targets:

Attack the four gates of Xuchang City all the way, cut off the internal and external connections, prevent Cao Jun from entering the city for reinforcements, and open a passage by the way. If there is an accident in the coup, you can still escape from the city, right?

Go all the way to the Valley of Broken Souls in the north of the city - the sky prison, release all the prisoners of war and prisoners inside, and then organize them to attack the Cao Jun camp outside the city, creating chaos as much as possible!

Finally, attack the arsenal all the way. There are countless armors, knives, guns, bows and arrows... enough to arm an army of 10,000+. Only with sufficient weapons and equipment can we continue to expand the army!

In all fairness, this military coup d'état - well-prepared and well-planned is definitely the handiwork of a master, but when it comes to the specific execution, there can only be one word to describe it - chaos!

According to the plan of the loyalists of the Han Dynasty, they originally wanted to assassinate Cao Cao and Xiao Yi, and then launch a coup d'état when Cao's army was leaderless.

As a result, the assassination failed, Cao Cao's life and death were uncertain, and Xiao Yi was only slightly injured. Although Cao Jun was terrified, he did not fall into chaos.

Moreover, Cao Cao has been in power for more than ten years, and his cronies are all over the world. Among the officials in Xuchang City, there are a large number of supporters of Cao Cao. Seeing that something happened in the city, these people quickly organized to help the army suppress the rebellion together!

"Slay the traitor! Kill the traitor!--Who is the traitor?"

"The army is in chaos, who cares who is the traitor, if you see a living person, cut it off--I think you are like a traitor!"
