Finally inherited the power, but Cao Pi seemed to be unable to be happy.

Because Cao Cao did leave him a mess, politically, Cao Cao had always pursued a policy of attacking the aristocratic families and using them in the later period. The relationship between the Cao family and the Central Plains gentry was not that close. It can be seen from the previous Wei Feng, as well as Jiben Wei Huang and Geng Ji and others trying to rebel to welcome Guan Yu.

Politically, Cao Pi did vigorously win over these high-ranking officials from aristocratic families, such as Sima Yi, Chen Qun, Mao Jie, Cui Tan, etc., and now that he ascended the throne, it has only eased the tension between the Cao family and the aristocratic families. Since ancient times, people's hearts have been the most unpredictable. God knows how many people in the territory are still planning secretly, hiding their swords in their laughter, and conspiring is waiting for him.

Moreover, Cao Pi's shortcomings are military. In theory, he inherited the national army of more than 50 towns of Cao Cao's mansion and as many as 400,000. However, under Cao Cao's precautions, he took over very little military power in the Central Plains. Now he suddenly succeeded to the throne, and even the army he could actually mobilize in Yecheng, less than tens of thousands of people.

So in the hall, she sat cross-legged in the position where Cao Cao liked to sit the most during his lifetime. Her face looked ugly, and Cao Pi shook his head solemnly and refused.

"Wang's father had an order during his lifetime, but the country was not unified. The funeral was simple, and the towns were mourning at home! The situation is not stable now, so there will be no funeral for the time being!"

Cao Pi is still afraid of Guan Yu until the battle of Xu Du. Who is Guan Yu? There were Cao Ren and Yu Jin in front of him. More than 60,000 Cao Wei's main force did not stop Guan Yu, and 10,000 people in Guanzhong. It was Cao Zhang, the Xiaobai Army, who actually defeated him in one battle. Now that the funeral is coming, Cao Zhang, with the support of Wang Hou, must have brought troops to Ye. If he had any intention of the throne, Cao Pi really couldn't show enough confidence to resist.

Therefore, if you can delay it for a day, you must at least drag the situation until he controls most of the troops, and at least you must completely control more than 100,000 troops from the Bafu near Yecheng.

But following his reasons, whether it was Sima Yi, Mao Jie, or Chen Qun, who were trusted by the new king, were all the important officials who were recruited in front of the imperial court, shook their heads.

"Your Highness, the Han Dynasty is based on filial piety and integrity, and the father is not buried after his father dies. This is not filial piety. If the king insists on doing this, wouldn't he give it to Gong Xi Yong, who is polite?"

Holding his fist, Sima Yi directly spoke up with a high voice. Cao Pi was speechless, but at this critical moment, outside the court, there were guards with red flags hanging behind their backs, and suddenly appeared at the door of the lobby, twenty meters away from the ministers, and bowed heavily.

"Report~ The king, the elite soldiers in Guanxi have 20,000 have passed Hedong. He said that he will follow the secret edict of the old Wei king and come straight to my Yecheng!"

"What? He Wang Tuqiu rebelled!"

The blue veins on his forehead burst out, and he slapped the king chair made of gold and stood up with a loud bang, and Cao Pi roared even more angrily.

"The prince's father's body was not cold, and the son of King Wen was brave enough to fight. He was not a minister and was very ruthless!"

But after roaring, Cao Pi turned his head helplessly to Sima Yi.

"Who can lead the army to stop it?"

"The king, my subordinates believe that the army of Duke Zhenxi does not need to be stopped! What the king needs to do now is to bury the King of Wei quickly according to the old King of Wei's order!" Zilang Literature

"There are 180,000 troops in Yecheng, and all the ministers know that the former king is in your position. Even if Duke Qin really leads his troops to Yecheng, he will not agree. All the king needs to do is to win people's hearts quickly and not give Duke Zhenxi a pretext!"

"After the order, he buried the old Wei King and gathered the hearts of all the troops under the old Wei King. As for the mouths of the scholars in the world, Chen Shizhong proposed the plan first. The old minister believed that when it was time to implement it!"

"Shizhong Chen..."

All the pretenders really need to be returned! When Cao Cao was still there, in order to gain the support of the wealthy families, I don’t know how many political promises Cao Pi made. Chen Qun’s plan is an extremely important part, that is, the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng system!

The scholars in the world were classified into nine ranks from the top to the bottom. Zhongzheng established Zhongzheng in various places, and then established Zhongzheng. These Zhongzheng officials assessed the students of appropriate age in various places, evaluated the three aspects of family and benevolence, and then recommended to the Central Zhongzheng Prefecture.

The Central Committee’s Zhongzhengfu used this list as a basis to select officials.

This system is actually an evolutionary supplement to the system of recommendation that has been popular since Emperor Wen of Han. The system of recommendation is that the local chief executives recommend talents to the court center according to their own county population. The conditions for talent selection of the nine-rank Zhongzheng system have only further improved.

But it seems more advanced and institutionalized, but in fact it is the aristocratic family and the Cao family's right to appoint and remove the official positions! Because in the Cao Cao era, he was actually a nepotist. Only the clan relatives who started with him, the fellow villagers of Qiao County and the Yingchuan gentry who first invested in him could he reach a high position, just like Yang Xiu, the three masters of the four generations who could not enter the decision-making level.

Moreover, under Cao Cao's command, many truly talented poor families have entered the court. Although it seems to be nepotism, Cao Cao actually broke the situation where the gentry monopolized official positions since the Eastern Han Dynasty.

But waiting for Cao's family to give official positions, the aristocrats who were used to being rampant naturally dissatisfied. The proposal of the ninth-rank Zhongzheng system is equivalent to the fact that Cao Pi himself selected the official position to our aristocratic family who determined the candidates. You can always choose the ones that please you from this list! You have won more than half of the right to choose the person at once!

Moreover, it seems that Da Zhongzheng evaluates talents. How to choose Da Zhongzheng is not a wealthy family, and the family background becomes one of the important prerequisites for selecting officials. In disguise, he recognized the political privileges of aristocratic families of ministers and nobles of all generations. Cao Pi didn't know, but Wang Hou must have known clearly. Under the implementation of the nine-rank Zhongzheng system of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, it completely became the politics of the aristocratic family, and the chrysanthemum-faced one of the top poor families and the lower-ranking no gentry.

Even the demise of Cao Wei was due to this political system. How did Sima Yi rise up in history? He gradually built his Sima family into a super gentry. Under the Nine-rank Zhongzheng system, it became the banner of the gentry against the Cao clan.

After the Gaopingling Incident, Sima Yi, who had the support of the gentry, easily concentrated all the Cao Wei royal families in Yecheng to monitor. Then, in the last struggle of the Cao family, Cao Mao, the Ganlu coup of the Gaogui Township Gong, the gentry-born Shizhong Wang Shen, the Shangshu Wang Jing, and the Sanqi Changshi Wang Ye easily rebeled into the Sima family, making a generation of emperor lead hundreds of eunuchs to attack the powerful minister Sima Zhao into a heroic masterpiece.

However, accepting the ninth-rank Zhongzheng system now is indeed the best way to win over the gentry of the world and fight against Wang Hou and Cao Zhang. With the expectant eyes of Chen Qun Sima Yi and several other gentry ministers, he gritted his teeth and thought for a full minute or two, and Cao Pi finally clenched his fists heavily.

"Okay, according to Mr. Sima's plan, the three days after the spiritual stop will expire tomorrow, and the orphan will personally wear mourning and bury it, and promulgate the nine-rank Zhongzheng system to the world. At the same time..."

He stumbled for a while and then said dullly.

"Donald Yong and Duke Zhenxi are attending the funeral. No stopping them along the way!!!"
