Chapter 341 One article moves the world
On the third day of October in the fifth year of Jian'an, Cao Cao returned in triumph.
The victory in the Battle of Guandu allowed Cao Cao to secure his position as the overlord of Henan, and there were faint signs of catching up with Yuan Shao. At this time, no one was clamoring for Yuan Shao and Cao Cao to jointly control the government. Cao Cao used a great victory
, proving that he is hundreds of times stronger than Yuan Shao.
Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty led hundreds of officials out of the city to greet him.
Cao Cao dismounted and bowed to Liu Xie, creating a harmonious drama of mutual understanding between the king and his ministers.
In fact, when Cao Cao won a great victory in Guandu, the person who was most disappointed was not Yuan Shao, but Han Emperor Liu Xie. He originally expected Yuan Shao to defeat Cao Cao, but then he stood up in the name of the emperor of the Han family and turned the tide... He
I hope that Yuan Shao will win, but I don’t want Cao Cao. Only when Cao Cao is alive can he check Yuan Shao, and after the tragic victory, Yuan Shao will be severely damaged. By then, Liu Xie will be able to take back the power in their hands... only
It's a pity that Liu Xie's little plan ended up being nothing more than drawing water from a bamboo basket!
Yuan Shao, shortcomings and strategies!
This is also the strongest feeling in Liu Xie's heart.
I miss you Yuan Shao, who controlled four states, had millions of soldiers under his command, abundant money and food, and a large population. However, Cao Cao defeated him and almost wiped out his entire army.
This kind of person is no different from trash.
At least in Liu Xie's mind, Yuan Shao's status plummeted.
However, Liu Xie could not give up just yet.
Before welcoming Cao Cao and returning his promise, he had already issued an edict to confer Cao Cao with the rank of Grand Tutor.
Cao Cao already worshiped Sikong and was one of the Three Dukes. As for the Taifu, he was above the Three Dukes and was responsible for the responsibility of persuading the emperor to do good things and had no daily affairs.
Presumably, Yuan Shao would feel very uncomfortable when he heard the news!
The emperor issued an edict, and according to the rules, Cao Cao had to resign three times before he could formally accept it.
But the title of Taifu is already guaranteed. To Cao Cao, it doesn't matter whether Taifu is not very good, the key is the issue of face.
Later generations often say that Cao Cao likes to have his tail raised.
After the great victory in Guandu, Cao Cao's little tail wanted to curl up again...
After entering the city, there was some complicated etiquette.
That night, Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty held a banquet to celebrate Cao Cao's victory in the Jinluan Palace. All civil and military officials attended. Liu Xie only showed up once and then left. He felt uncomfortable and had no choice but to celebrate Cao Cao's victory. But
It is absolutely impossible for him to accompany you all the time.
After Liu Xie left the stage, the atmosphere of the banquet reached its climax.
"My lords, my lords, please listen to a certain statement."
Cao Cao suddenly spoke loudly, and everyone in the hall immediately stopped talking.
"I have a private matter that I would like to discuss with you.
My fifth son is already five years old and is just beginning his education. But this gentleman is not easy to ask for. I wonder if you have any good suggestions for this?"
Previously, Mrs. Huan had sent letters many times to express her thoughts.
She hoped that Cao Peng would enlighten Cao Chong.
However, Cao Cao was busy with the war at the time, so he did not make a decision. Moreover, he did not know how to decide the matter... Cao Peng was a good candidate. In any case, Cao Cao was loyal to Cao Peng and admired Cao Peng's talents and learning.
I also appreciate it very much. But as Mrs. Bian said, the biggest problem with Cao Peng is his age. As for his official position, to be honest, it is nothing...
The current focus of debate is precisely Cao Peng's age.
It's not that Cao Cao doesn't know Mrs. Huan's thoughts.
But he didn't think there was anything wrong with Mrs. Huan. The children under his knees were all still young, the oldest was only fourteen years old, so it was too early to establish a direct heir. Cao Cao himself also loved Cao Chong very much, and naturally hoped that there would be someone in the future.
Support Cao Chong, help Cao Chong.
As for whether to establish Cao Chong as his direct successor, Cao Cao did not consider it.
He is in his prime, so it is too early to consider this issue... Besides, even if he helps Cao Chong, it does not mean that he must establish Cao Chong as his heir.
But the problem is, he doesn't want to establish a direct heir, but his family doesn't think so.
Cao Cao talked to Guo Jia several times, but Guo Jia never expressed his opinion. Therefore, Cao Cao raised this matter at the celebration banquet because he wanted to hear everyone's opinions. However, when Cao Cao raised this issue
At that time, the hall was completely silent.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one was willing to speak.
Originally, this is your Lao Cao's family matter, why do you need to bring it up and ask us?
This involves a question of siding with one another...if you sally with the wrong team, someone will die.
"I guess Sikong also heard the rumors." Since Cao Cao had spoken, he would definitely not answer. Therefore, a pair of eyes fell on the former Taiwei Yang Biao. Yang Biao is also a white man now, but he has
Therefore, he was also invited to the banquet today. "There are rumors that Sikong intends to invite Cao Youxue to be the Enlightenment Master, but it may be a rumor. It's not that Cao Youxue is not bad, his character is not bad, but he is a little younger. If he is older,
At what age, he must be the most suitable candidate, but now, there may be something wrong."
"Yes, Cao Babai is very talented, but he's just too young!"
"Well, Cao Peng does have real talent and knowledge, but his temper can't help but be impulsive... It may not be appropriate for him to be responsible."
Whether it is out of good intentions or with ulterior motives, when someone speaks, others will naturally follow and talk about it...
This topic mainly revolves around Cao Peng's age. Of course, there are some people who are quite dissatisfied with Cao Peng because he made a big fuss in the auxiliary general's palace. Taking this opportunity, they don't mind stepping on it. Although it may not be possible.
The effect is, but it can make Cao Peng sick.
Everyone was talking a lot, and Cao Cao listened attentively.
Privately, he also felt that Cao Peng was a bit young...
But I also feel that enlightenment is just about reading and literacy. What does age have to do with it?
"Wenju, why don't you speak?"
Cao Cao's eyes fell on Kong Rong after looking around at everyone in the palace.
Normally, he is a talkative person, but today for some unknown reason, he remained silent.
When Cao Cao called his name, Kong Rong coughed and stood up. Previously, Yang Biao did not stand up when he answered. And what Cao Cao asked was a private matter, so when everyone talked, they always sat down to talk.
Kong Rong suddenly stood up so solemnly, and everyone couldn't help but be startled. Kong Rong was not an ordinary person. His reputation was so great that he could be regarded as a representative of the elite.
Does he have any intention of standing up like this?
Cao Cao was also stunned!
On weekdays, Kong Rong was the most informal. He was free and easy at best, and wild at worst.
When talking to Cao Cao, he rarely showed such a solemn attitude. Cao Cao couldn't help but be curious and wanted to hear what Kong Rong had to say.
Kong Rong walked around the wine table and walked to the center of the hall.
I saw him, straightening his virtuous crown, shaking his clothes, taking two steps forward, "Rong Zhengyu is Sikong Juxian."
"Juxian?"
"Some time ago, Rong got a strange book and would like to dedicate it to Sikong."
As he spoke, Kong Rong took out a book from his arms and raised his hands above his head.
"Yue is also willing to promote talents for Sikong."
"Xun Yu is willing to promote talents for Sikong..."
"Chen Ji please recommend talents to Sikong."
Whoops, seven or eight people stood up at once.
And the content is actually the same.
Cao Cao looked at everyone in shock and was a little confused.
"Wenju, what are you..."
"Sikong Ke will naturally understand it after reading this "Three Character Classic" first."
Cao Cao stepped forward and took the book from Kong Rong's hand.
The book is a thin book, not thick. The three words "Three Character Classic" are written in Feibai cursive script on the cover, and it is signed by none other than Cao Peng.
My family, Wanlihou, has another new work?
Cao Cao couldn't help but be curious and opened the cover page.
"At the beginning of human beings, their nature is good. Their natures are similar, but their habits are far away... One is ten, ten is hundreds. Hundreds are thousands, thousands are ten thousand... They are called spring and summer, and they are called autumn and winter. These four seasons have endless luck... Born from the earth
, there are grass and trees. These plants are all over the water and land. There are insects, fish, birds and beasts. This animal can fly away... The order of growth, friends and friends. The king is respectful, and the minister is loyal. These ten righteousnesses are the same for everyone...
…”
At first, Cao Cao just chanted in a low voice.
But as he continued reading, the voice gradually became louder and echoed over the hall.
To be continued...
