Days are everlasting

After Sima Shi worshiped Cai Yan as his teacher, because there was one more place to go, the frequency of visiting Cao Pi's mansion was much lower.

The mansion of Cai Yan and her husband Dong Si is not very big, but it has ancient charm, especially the place where Cai Yan lives. I think she has spent a lot of thought.

To Sima Shi's surprise, Hu beds are very common in Dong Si's mansion.

The Hu bed in this era is similar to the small horses and folding chairs of later generations. It is the predecessor of the chair, and it came from Hu Di, so it has this name.

It is precisely because it was introduced from Hudi, so not all households use this thing, and most of the people who talk about ancient etiquette still ask to sit down.

But Cai Yan is different. She stayed in Hudi for 12 years and gave birth to two children. Anyway, she still has feelings for her children. When she was redeemed by Cao Cao, she also wrote "Hujia Eighteen Pai" expresses his dismay for his youngest son.

Therefore, after Cai Yan got married, in her husband Dong Si's mansion, there were occasional things such as Hu beds that were introduced from the outside world.

If Cai Yan had just married Dong Si, how could a young talent fall in love with a woman who married twice and was kidnapped by the barbarians for 12 years?Not to mention how much she misses Hu Di's life.

But later Dong Si was questioned, if Cai Yan hadn't pleaded for him in front of Cao Cao, I'm afraid he would have died, and the relationship between the husband and wife would have deepened since then. Preferences have been reorganized on a large scale.

Today, after Master Sima finished practicing calligraphy, he listened to Cai Yan's dictation, wrote a few books on bamboo slips, and then began to study the scriptures.

In this era, there is no too unified standard for the "classics", and the different views of scholars from various schools will also affect the family's interpretation of the classics.

Cai Yan learned the Confucian classics from Cai Yong, and Cai Yong was a famous Confucianist at that time, so it is quite authoritative.

Moreover, Cai Yong's collection of books is very rich, plus the collection of books in Dong Si's house, Master Sima saw some books that he didn't have at home, and he was not afraid of conflicts when learning.

During lunch, Master Sima heard some people discussing that Cai Yan was in a bad mood due to a news from outside.

Fortunately, the servants of this family were well-trained, knowing that the news of the master's family should not be leaked casually, and no one would say anything.

However, Master Sima always felt that after lunch was over, Cai Yan looked at him a little wrongly.

Back at the mansion, he talked to his mother about it, and only then did he get the answer.

Some time ago, Prime Minister Cao received evidence in Xuchang that Queen Fu had asked his father to get rid of the "rebel" Cao Cao many years ago.

By the time the news reached Yecheng, the dust had already settled. Not only did the empress die in the cold palace, but even the two princes were not spared.

The people here in Yecheng are all the confidantes of Duke Wei Cao Cao. Because Cai Yan was redeemed by Cao Cao, Cai Yan has been living in Yecheng since her husband Dong Si was convicted and exonerated. It was too late when he received the news.

She probably thought of the time when Dong Zhuo forced his father Cai Yong to be an official. Later, Wang Yun used Dong Zhuo's body to light a candle and make Cai Yong cry. Grace, and people die like lights out, Wang Yun's humiliation of the corpse is not only revenge against Dong Zhuo, but also a provocation against the scholar group, of course it is not recognized-now Cao □□ died and the queen was killed, but she returned to the motherland because of Cao Cao's kindness. In the country, it cannot be said that Prime Minister Cao's current behavior is quite similar to that of the past.

In Ye City, there was no overly strong reaction to the tragedy of the Emperor's family.

Now everyone is tied to Cao Cao's boat. Only Cao Gong is good, and everything is really good. For the emperor of Han, the new generation doesn't have so much respect for him!

Speaking of which, everyone is more concerned about Mr. Cao's family affairs now.

Everyone doesn't care if the emperor Liu Xieli does not establish a prince. Even if he is established, everyone can know that the emperor is very good, and no one wants to know who the prince is.

But who is Cao Gong's heir, many people want to know.

Now the seizing of the heir within the Cao family is the same as the emperor's establishment of the prince, which is even more eye-catching.

The daughters of Prime Minister Cao have also reached the right age and want to choose a son-in-law, but they haven't decided who to marry.

However, the Ding brothers, who were at odds with Cao Pi before, were spoiled by him—it is said that Cao Cao originally wanted to give his eldest daughter to Ding Yi, the eldest son of the Ding brothers—now they completely fell to Cao Zhi’s side. .

Apart from the Ding brothers, the most eye-catching person on Cao Zhi's side was Yang Xiu, whose talent Cao Cao would never cease to praise.

Cao Zhi is favored by Cao Cao, and his subordinates are also good.

Not to mention Yang Xiu, it is the Ding brothers, whose father is also old with Cao Cao, and he is very talented. It is said that after Cao Cao married his eldest daughter to Xiahou Mao, the son of Xiahoudun, he once said with emotion that Ding Yizong was completely blind. Talented, he is also willing to marry his daughter to him, not to mention that Ding Yi's eyes are just a little smaller, Cao Pi really ruined a good marriage!

However, the Xiahou family, who was close to the Cao family, was more friendly to Cao Pi, and was very grateful for his words. As for the gains and losses, it can only be seen by the benevolent and the wise.

Yang Xiu gave Cao Zhi a lot of ideas to keep him in favor with Cao Cao. If it weren't for the great power of the eldest son inheritance system in the world, and the difference in aptitude between Cao Pi and Cao Zhi is not very big, at most there are differences in what they are good at. It was Cao Cao who had made up his mind a long time ago to make Cao Zhi the son of Duke Wei.

Cao Zhi's talent and degree of favor are still inferior to Cao Chong's.

But the popularity is growing, the more people focus on Cao Zhi, the easier it is to find his faults, not to mention, Cao Zhi's faults are not so difficult to catch.

Sima Shi was still a child, so he didn't want to get mixed up in the world where adults were fighting, but when he heard the news of Cao Zhi's misfortune, he was still a little happy.

It's not that he has any dislike for Cao Zhi, but because Cao Zhi's regular wife is a bit too much.

Cao Cao advocated frugality, and even his own son could not disobey his orders, let alone a group of officials in Yecheng.

Once when the Sima family went to a banquet held by a certain family, they saw the wife of the Marquis of Linzi Cao Zhi dressed up brilliantly, and judging from her performance at the banquet, she also lived very carefully in the mansion on weekdays.

That's fine, after all, it's other people's business, so you can't stretch your hands too far and let it go to other people's homes, right?

Although Wei Gong has stipulated that it should not be too extravagant, Cao Zhi is his favorite son, and he rushed to report his son's report. Even if Mrs. Cao Zhi really violated the order, the informer would not be able to please him.

But who made Cao Zhi's wife Cui too pampered?

Even in terms of the strength of the family, Mrs. Cao Zhi, who was born in the Cui family of Qinghe, has a very good family background.

It's a pity that I was spoiled a bit by being used to it, although it was unintentional, the words were inappropriate, even Sima Shi felt a little uncomfortable listening, let alone other people.

Ma'am, you are no longer a girl in the boudoir, and the party is not a group of your good sisters or "enemies", can you not be so mean?

Among the guests at the meeting, there are always some people who must revenge.

The Marquis of Linzi, who brought his wife to the banquet, was very drunk and was having a good time with others, so he didn't take this matter to heart at all.

As a result, Cao Zhi was unlucky for the first time, and it fell on this lady.

The prime minister stood on the stage with great interest and looked from afar, but there was a person in a gorgeous dress in the dark, so eye-catching, he couldn't pretend he didn't know it.

Ever since, during the family banquet, Cui Shi, who still knew how to dress plainly and pretended to be, was discovered just like that. Cao Cao called it "the source of disordered family". She was given to death when she returned home. Her uncle Cui Yan Can't say anything either.

It is precisely because of the Cui family that Cao Zhi was considered incapable of managing his own house. Cao Cao's ban was there, but Cao Zhi turned a blind eye to his wife's behavior. Guarantee that those close to him are like him? ——Wei Gong Cao Cao severely reprimanded him.

Seeing the big from the small, Cao Pi seems to have found a good way to bring down Cao Zhi.

As long as Cao Zhi is not established as the prince, they still have time to grind slowly, little by little, and they can always bring him down. Gao, it's also hopeless

In the words of a famous book from later generations that Sima Shi remembers, it is "seeing him building a tall building, seeing him entertaining guests, and seeing his building collapse". It will start soon.

Of course, every little thing can't offset Cao Zhi's honor and favor, but it just gives people hope.

Then faint news came out that Cao Cheng hesitated several times with his heir, but he still couldn't make up his mind. Many people said that if the wife of Linzihou hadn't dragged him back, he might have been established as Wei Wei at that time. Prince.

Although these news were just rumors, they always had some credibility. The atmosphere was so gloomy that Master Sima didn't dare to go to Cao Pi's house casually.

Later, because Mr. Zhi was proud of his talent, the prime minister ordered Yingcai to make a gift, but he looked down on his group of opponents, so he didn't make a gift at all-probably because the famous ones were ordered to do errands and didn't go to participate in it at that time. .Young talents also value work very much, okay?Can have a serious job, who would still see the sky there reciting poems and prose - that made Prime Minister Cao very dissatisfied.

The news that the Marquis of Linzi angered Duke Wei came twice in a year, and many fools hesitated again. Now it seems that the Marquis of Linzi is not too safe.

At the same time, relying on his wife Zhen to take the route of respecting the harem Madam Bian, Cao Pi also pleases his father Cao Cao and his mother Madam Bian. In terms of filial piety, the couple is even more praised.

The gap between the two sides has gradually narrowed, and the battle has reached a fever pitch.

The author has something to say: I feel that I have exhausted my prehistoric power, and finally turned the time back to Orz
