The primary reason is that in the past two years, Cao Cao and his sons have all held power, and they all intend to be the status of their heirs, so they have continued to compete with each other, almost reaching an unscrupulous level. Undercurrents are surging within the Cao regime, and opponents from abroad are staring at each other day and night, thinking that this is an opportunity to take advantage of.
The secondary reason is that Cao Pi's actions were inappropriate.
This time, Cao Cao intended to exaggerate the news that he was seriously ill and asked Cao Pi, who was in Chang'an to cooperate. After discussing with his confidants, Cao Pi chose to go east and leave Yan Xing to the election, Cheng Yin, Zhang Heng, Ma Wan and others to stay in Chang'an. The impact of this move should be similar to what Cao Zhang did in Luoyang, and it was nothing more than luring a few clowns to the point where he quickly lost control and was quickly corrupted to the point where Cao Pi could not maintain it, and forced Cao Cao to rise up and help.
Cao Pi knelt on the ground again.
Fortunately, there is no one around except Xu Chu, otherwise, there will be no gossip about tomorrow.
"Just understand it in your heart. Don't kneel, don't kneel. Zijian can at least speak well. What's the matter if you kneel down at any time? It's just annoying to look at it." Cao Cao sighed: "I said it, it's not your fault!"
"At that time, Yuan Shao sent three sons to occupy the provinces, Ju Su advised him that the world said that ten thousand people chased rabbits, and one person got them, and all those who were greedy were stopped, so that they were divided into certainty. Moreover, the year was wise and virtuous, and the ancient system was the system. I hope that the emperor would only command success or failure of the previous generation, and the lower one thought about the meaning of chasing rabbits. If it did not change, the disaster would begin. Yuan Shao replied that I wanted to let the sons occupy one state to view their ability. Later, Yuan Shao died of illness, and the sons were quarreling with each other, and they died one by one at my hands. Therefore, many people in the world criticized Yuan Shao's actions. It was precisely because of Yuan Shao's previous lessons that I have made you and Zijian and Ziwen hold power in recent years, and many people wrote letters to make a fuss and tried to make a decision. But I want to go against the public opinion..."
Cao Cao took a few breaths and shouted loudly: "It's not because I'm old and stupid! I have my reason!"
"Please teach my father."
"I have been fighting for half my life, and have been fighting for decades, fighting against the Yellow Turbans, defeating Dong Zhuo, attacking Xuzhou, defeating Yuan Shu, beheading Lu Bu, and conquering Hebei, and then sweeping most of the world and gradually becoming a hegemony. This hegemony has developed to this point, and there is no room for vain to give in. It must be a hundred feet tall, and it can go further. However, if you want to take control of the power of the world, you will be punished by the evil of the world and the slander of the world. And I have made the people under my utmost brilliance, and only talent is the only one to promote those smart people who can see the situation clearly... You and Zijian have also recruited a lot of such people. But are these people really trustworthy? Are they loyal?"
Cao Pi thought for a moment and replied, "I heard that being loyal to the world is easy to govern, but being loyal to the turbid world is difficult to be loyal to. Judging from the current situation, there are both superficial cooperation and secret struggles between the master and the servant. It is nothing more than the master's strong ministers and the ministers are weak, and the master's weak ministers are strong."
"It's OK!" Cao Cao slapped the foundation of the wall and praised.
"In the chaotic world, there are only a few people who can serve the king with sincerity. The one who is the master of the man is the most worthy of relying on is himself. The master of the man is more fierce than a tiger, more cunning than a fox, and more vicious than a poisonous snake! Instead of being filial, kind, literary, and not brave and good at fighting!"
Three words cursed all the advantages of the three sons showing to the outside world, and were impartial.
The turmoil in Guanzhong was so turbulent that Cao Pi could not give up the blame. In the past few days, Cao Pi often worried about this, and even dreamed of his father's punishment in the middle of the night, and woke up without possession. Today, Cao Cao's troops arrived in Luoyang and urgently summoned him to come. Cao Pi's anxiety and fear were even more than ordinary people imagined.
When Cao Pi heard the first word, he felt nervous and almost couldn't breathe; then he heard the second and third words, and he relaxed a little. Obviously, his father had not made the final decision yet. Perhaps this fierce internal struggle could end until Duke Wei was crowned as king and crowned the prince.
It's good that there is still time, and I can continue to fight for it.
Cao Pi felt that he should be able to remain stable.
A few years ago, he had been worried that his father would be bewitched by Zijian when he was in Yecheng and lived with Cao Zijian day and night. But now the situation in Guanzhong has changed drastically, and the force confrontation and confrontation between Cao, Liu and Ma may become more and more intense, and his father must stay for a long time to deal with it.
In this way, I can get close to serving for at least one or two years, and then show my own talents. Perhaps I can also take the opportunity to eliminate a few servants and scholars around my father and suppress Zijian's influence?
Today, my father specially brought me to the old city of Luoyang. Judging from what he meant, it seemed that he was planning to operate Chang'an and Luoyang as a whole. This important task may be given to me? Once this task is obtained, how much impact will it have among the many hesitant ministers?
In an instant, Cao Pi's thoughts flashed and came back to his senses. Cao Cao continued: "If you can't do these things and rashly grasp the power, you will only be deceived by the feelings of the masses and then overturn your own foundation. I have told you these principles in normal times, but if you can apply them in practice, you must try them out and learn them... I am willing to give you the opportunity to take control of the power of the power, that is, you will try them out and learn them!"
Cao Pi showed a touching look and bowed: "I will never let my father down!"
"Well..." Cao Cao nodded and reached out to hold Cao Pi's shoulder. His five fingers grabbed Cao Pi's shoulder, still as powerful as iron pliers, just like the situation in Cao Pi's memory.
Cao Pi did not dare to move, so he raised his eyes in confusion. In recent years, Cao Cao has obviously aged. His hair and beard are gradually whiter and his wrinkles are becoming more and more, but his eyes are still sharp, as if he has just pulled out of the enemy and is ready to continue killing the blade at any time.
"Liu Bei is a hero in the world, and Ma Chao is also a cunning enemy. Even if I am, I dare not say that I will definitely beat them. If you suffer a loss on them, you don't need to worry too much. Zihuan, you have been very effective in managing Guanzhong in the past few years. Although I did not expect Liu Bei and Ma Chao's attack, I could control the candidates, Cheng Yin and Ma play, and keep the road along Chang'an and Luoyang smooth. I see both my achievements and demerits!"
He said in a deep voice: "So, don't think too much, let go of it... I will never entrust my great cause to the mediocre person who cannot bear the heavy responsibility. This time I went west to Guanzhong and deliberately made you accompany you. Don't let me down! Do you understand?"
This admiration and encouragement were mixed together, beyond Cao Pi's expectations. Cao Pi lowered his head to hide his ecstasy.
My father said this, it was like supporting me!
