I have to say that Fa Zheng is really an evil strategist.

Originally, Liu Xie asked him to join Liu Bei's side, but he had no other ideas. As a result, Fa Zheng thought that Liu Xie wanted Liu Bei to get married and marry a family of aristocratic families as his wife.

Originally, Liu Bei wanted to be a married woman, but the result might be that they wanted too much. After searching for her for a long time, she couldn't find a satisfactory partner. She was too young to be younger, but Liu Bei looked down on her and was too tall to be younger.

After all, Liu Bei was also a 40-year-old, and it was too evil to lose his wife. For example, Mi Zhu's sister died just a few days after marrying her sister. The ancients were superstitious, and those high-ranking families were really afraid to marry their daughter to be a wife.

Just so happened that Xiahou Dun killed Wei Yan, it really slapped Liu Bei in the face, making Liu Bei very angry. Then Fa Zheng, as the leader, gave Liu Bei a bad idea: Let's marry Ding.

It shocked Liu Bei.

What kind of brain does Fazheng have? Why are all the strategies he has come up with so weird?

Is this a plan that a normal person can come up with? Thinking from the perspective of others, Cao Cao wouldn’t be so angry?

You should know that between the couple, it was Cao Cao who was dumped by Ding, not Ding. Although Cao Cao pretended to be generous and persuaded Ding to remarry, it was just a story. No one really dared to marry a woman who dumped Cao Cao! Everyone is a man, don’t you know what it means to pretend to be generous?

Without thinking, Liu Bei rejected Fa Zheng. After all, this plan sounded too unreliable.

As a result, I never expected that the emperor... seemed to think so.

The emperor said this, and it was completely different from Fa Zheng’s words. This was to completely separate the three surnames Cao, Ding and Xiahou!

The hint given by the emperor is already very obvious. As long as Ding Chong marrys his sister to him, then Ding Chong will be his own person from now on. There is no problem at all in the governor of Yanzhou, and it is even possible that you want to become a Sili Captain again.

So, is it possible for Ding Chong to betray Cao Cao?

Actually, there are some.

Because now, whether it is Ding Chong or the entire Ding family, the political status is relatively awkward, and it is almost difficult to find their place in Cao Cao's entire decision-making system. Generals such as Cao Ren, Cao Xiu, and Cao Chun are all leading generals. Although Cao Hong is dead, his daughter was also adopted by Cao Cao as his adopted daughter and married Zhang Liao. Zhang Liao is already the second only to Zhang Xiu in the dynasty, and can almost be determined to be one of the next generation leaders. (Zhang Liao is very young, almost one generation younger than most generals with the same popularity)

It is not necessary to say that Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan are the two brothers. Even Xu Chu, Han Hao, and Shi Huan, the second-rate figures in Qiao County can basically stand alone and hold heavy troops in their hands.

However, Cao Cao's talented Qiao County military general group had almost no place in their Ding family.

After all, isn’t it just because of Mrs. Ding’s divorce?

This is not counting. Considering that Mrs. Bian is favored by Cao Cao, and her sons Cao Pi, Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi have gradually grown up, Mrs. Ding has a bad relationship with these young people, such as Cao Xi, the queen of the dynasty. Cao Cao originally wanted him to marry Ding Chong's son Ding Yi to save the relationship between the two families, but Cao Pi strongly opposed it and then made a marriage contract with Xiahou Wei, the son of Xiahou Dun.

Well... It seems like it's a bit of a blessing in disguise when thinking about it. Xiahou Wei's grave grass is now tall.

But in short, this does show that Cao Cao and their Ding family are now very complicated and are obviously a little distant.

Within the Qiao County Group, they felt embarrassed, and looking at the entire court, they were even more embarrassed. The Cao group label on them could not be washed away. Who can treat them as their own people in the court?

So much so that Ding Chong really didn't know whether he was Cao Cao's direct descendant, nor did he know whether he was a court official.

I feel ashamed of my ancestors!

You should know that their Ding family is also a prominent family of three dukes in the past, and their political status should be above the Xiahou family. Among the counselors who persuaded Cao Cao to obey the emperor and order the emperor to order the rebellion were also Ding Chong, who had already become the Minister of the Yellow Sect as early as the reign of Emperor Ling.

If the Cao family had not produced Cao Cao, to be honest, Ding Chong could have been able to earn about two thousand stones now. How could he be so embarrassing like now?

Today, Yang Biao almost kept calling him a waste in front of him, in front of the civil and military officials, and in front of the emperor, but he could only find a corner to hide.

Do you think he has no dignity? Do you think he doesn’t have face?

Is the Three Dukes awesome? Our family was originally from the Three Dukes’ family!

How could Ding Chong have no resentment towards Cao Cao?

These things were almost done in the blink of an eye and were finished in Liu Bei's mind.

The more you think about it, the more reliable Fazheng's strategy becomes.

Others dare not marry Cao Cao’s wife, so they have no reason to be afraid of him!

Don’t you, Cao Cao, like a wife? This is called the cycle of reincarnation and cause and effect.

In Yanzhou, the imperial court can certainly decide the candidate for the governor, but Cao Cao has been operating in Yanzhou for too long. If Cao Cao is not satisfied with this candidate for the governor, can he succeed in Yanzhou? In extreme cases, it is impossible to die in an unknown day. How powerful is the struggle between Wei ministers and Han ministers now.

But if Ding Chong went to Yanzhou as Liu Bei's elder brother-in-law, it would definitely be different again.

You should know that the Ding family and the Cao family have been married for generations, and there is also a Xiahou family. This is the fate of three families. In fact, the same family is not the only one. If someone marrys your daughter to you, everyone will meet, even if they can't become brother-in-law, they will still be other relatives. Besides, there is also a Xiahou. If others don't say it, Xiahou Yuan's wife is also named Ding!

(Xiahou Yuan’s wife’s surname is Ding, and the other Cao Wei royal families have not recorded it, but there are certainly some families that have been married to each other for generations.)

What did Cao Cao rely on to run Yanzhou into a single iron bucket? Isn’t that rely on the people of Qiao County? A large number of powerful officials among the grassroots officials have now been replaced by Cao Cao to people of Qiao County.

Hi, Ding Chong is also from Qiao County. You said this is a coincidence.

At the same time, this can also send a clear signal to the marquises of other Qiao County: It’s the shore that comes back, and the emperor is not willing to reuse you people from Qiao County. If you are loyal to the court, the court will still leave you a place.

At that time, Ding Chong will take office as the governor of Yanzhou, and he dare not say that he will transfer Yanzhou back, but I think Cao Cao's face will definitely look very good.

You killed him? This is impossible.

You let it go? This messing stick can stir up the basic plate so much.
