The matter of the Cao family is definitely the No. 1 pit in the world, I don't know how much flesh and blood to fill, so smart people avoid it one by one, and Xiao Yi has formulated the six no's principles: just ask, don't participate, don't support, don't oppose, don't deliberately distance yourself from the Cao family brothers, and don't be too close to anyone!

In the past few years, the Cao family brothers fought openly and secretly, and many officials became victims, including some important ministers of the imperial court.

It's a pity that he can hide from the first day of junior high school and can't hide from the fifteenth, and now the traitorous male asks in person, I'm afraid it won't work if I want to shirk it again, but how to answer such a sensitive question?

In terms of personal feelings, Xiao Yi prefers Cao Zhi, who is brilliant and bright-hearted, if he becomes the prince of Great Wei, Cao and Xiao will maintain friendly relations for a long time in the future.

In terms of political talent, Cao Pi is slightly better, insidious and cunning, good at employing people, although he is not a saint, but he is not the master of the master, and more importantly, he is the heir of the traitorous man!

Don't look at the traitor's hesitation, but when it comes to the critical moment, it must be Cao Pi who inherits the foundation, because Cao Cao is a politician, he doesn't want the loveliest son, but the most capable son......

The problem is, Xiao Yi can guess the answer, but he doesn't dare to say it, the traitor is suspicious by nature, and he hates others to guess his mind the most, guessing wrong is hateful, and guessing correctly is even more hateful, how can this be answered?

"Why don't you say anything, don't you want to share your worries for the old man, you are also half of the Cao family, even if you have something to say, speak boldly!"

"The last general didn't dare to speak out, but he thought a little in his heart, so he didn't answer for a long time!"

"What is the matter of those who have no worries, can you tell the old man about it?"

…………

It's no longer okay not to answer, Xiao Yat decided to use the most complicated way and say the simplest answer, sometimes there is too much nonsense, and it can also save the day!

Seeing Xiao Yi's eyebrows tightly locked, his face showing an unprecedented solemnity, Cao Cao was also nervous, if the answer he got for a while was the same as what he thought, then hello, I am good, everyone.

On the contrary, if the person Xiao Yi supports is not his own internal heir, then it will be a big trouble, with the current situation of the Cao family, it is impossible to eliminate the Xiao family, and he will change an heir against his will, and he will not be blind to death?

"It's okay to talk about it, the last general will think about the death of Great Qin II from afar, and think about Yuan Benchu and Liu Jingsheng's father and son closely!"

"Haha! --Wuchou can be called a resourceful and far-reaching person, and his thoughts are just secretly in line with the old man, and his thoughts are good and wonderful! ”

…………

Cao Cao and Xiao Yi looked at each other for a moment, and they both looked up to the sky and laughed, both of them are resourceful and knowledgeable people, and they are quite clear when it comes to this.

One of the important reasons for the demise of the Great Qin Empire was that the first emperor did not appoint a prince for a long time, and died on the way to the parade, so that Li Si and Zhao Gao tampered with the edict and gave the eldest son Fusu to death, as well as the brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi, and established the faint Hu Hai as the second emperor, which led to chaos in the dynasty and the rebellion of the world!

Just imagine, if the First Emperor had made up his mind to establish Su as the crown prince, let him sit in Xianyang City, and establish his own power, even if Li Si and Zhao Gao had the intention of causing chaos, I am afraid they would not be able to shake the country's foundation!

Similarly, the destruction of the two major groups of Hebei and Jingzhou was certainly caused by Cao's strong army and attacking cities and plundering land all the way, but Yuan Shao and Liu Biao also made huge mistakes on the issue of heirs!

A mistake and indecision led to a struggle between the sons and a huge internal friction; The two mistakes are abolished, the people are not convinced, and then the brothers kill each other, otherwise with the strength of the two groups, they may not be able to avoid the fate of extinction, at least they can survive for a few more years!

Xiao Yat gave two examples in a row, and also expressed two meanings: First, now that the vitality of Cao Ying Group has not recovered, in order to stabilize people's hearts, it is best to abide by the principle of inheritance, and set up the eldest son, Cao Pi, as the son, to cut off the source of internal division.

Second, not only to establish Cao Pi as the prince, but also to quickly hold the canonization, so as not to continue to fight and consume the strength of the Cao Ying group.

Since Mrs. Bian cried, Cao Cao learned from the pain and made up his mind to become a prince, and what Xiao Yi said today is completely in line with what he thinks, and it is naturally a big part of people's hearts.

In a comfortable mood, Cao Cao was relaxed, as if he was several years younger, and another question appeared, Cao Pi was established as the son, what should Cao Zhi do?

"There is a grandson, push the long and stand, this is thousands of years of ancestral training, the old man does not dare to disobey it, and Zihuan filial piety is commendable, shrewd and capable, although there is no pioneering power, it is no problem to keep the foundation.

However, how should Zijian be placed, he is quite influential among the scholars, and there is no shortage of tigers and wolves around him, but I am afraid that after a hundred years, the old man will still not be able to avoid brother rivalry? ”

As he spoke, Cao Cao's face was gloomy, and he seemed to have made some kind of determination, since ancient times, the ruthless emperor family, if there is a situation where the two sons fight, for the sake of the stability of the country, they will often canonize one and abolish the other!

The most typical is Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty, who first set up his eldest son Liu Rong as the crown prince, and then felt that this son was weak and incompetent enough to prosper the Han Dynasty, so he abolished him as the king of Linjiang and set up the tenth son Liu Che as the crown prince, which was later Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

He was also worried that after a hundred years, Liu Rong's former crown prince would be in turmoil, which would threaten Liu Che's throne and cause civil strife in the country, so Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty instructed his confidant Zhidu to force Liu Rong to death under the pretext of occupying the temple of Gaozu Zong.

As a father, forcing his own son to death is indeed cold, but as a monarch, for the overall stability of the country and the prevention of the people from falling into the flames of war, he did not hesitate to kill his relatives with righteousness, which is very admirable.

Similarly, although Cao Cao does not have the name of an emperor, he has the talent of an emperor and the power of an emperor, and understands the principle of giving up his small family for the country......

"The tiger is the king of beasts, who dares to touch its might, only father and son love, step by step, Zihuan and Zijian are all sons of prime ministers, the palms and backs of their hands are all meat, set one as the son of the Great Wei Dynasty, and the other will be canonized!

Qing and Xu are rich in the two prefectures, far away from the dispute between the court and the battlefield, and can be used as a fief for Zijian, so that he can live a lifetime!

Unfortunately in the future, as the prime minister said, there was an estrangement between the brothers, and the last general settled down to mediate, even if he didn't want to let out the officials, he would also ensure that his son was safe and sound, and he would not let him do anything wrong! ”

Unexpectedly, instead of falling into the trap, Xiao Yi maintained Cao Zhi, and also acted as his guardian to ensure that he was safe and sound all his life, which seems incredible, but it is actually very wonderful.

People call Cao Cao 'a traitor in troubled times', not only is he eloquent, sinister and cunning, but his personality is more complex to the extreme, and he is also fickle to the extreme, almost everything changes, one person changes, and he is changing all the time......

Just now discussed the matter of establishing a prince, Cao Cao stood in the perspective of the king, and in order to make the Cao family's business longer, he chose Cao Pi, who he didn't like very much, but had outstanding ability, as his son!

Next, Cao Cao was worried that after a hundred years, the two sons would kill each other, and wanted to take precautions in advance, and at this time, the traitorous male changed from a ruthless king to a kind father!

In this case, if Xiao Yiruo proposes to put Cao Zhi under house arrest, or exile him to a wild land to fend for himself three thousand miles away, the traitor will not only be unhappy, but may also have murderous intentions, just like the old man who protects his calf.

Therefore, Xiao Yi proposed to give Cao Zhi a fief, Qingzhou and Xuzhou are located on the coast, the city is rich and far from the border, so there are not many garrisons, Cao Zhi can only eat, drink and have fun, it is difficult to rebel!

What's more, a hundred years after the traitor, Cao Pi and Cao Zhiruo had a dispute, among the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, only Xiao Yi was the only one who was qualified, powerful, and strategic to mediate, he was the first general in the world and the brother-in-law of the two!

In other words, if you want Cao Pi's foundation to be stable, if you want Cao Zhi to be safe and sound, you must first ensure that Xiao Yi is safe and sound, which is equivalent to one more talisman, and Cao Cao will not dare to mess with his black hands when he is dying, otherwise he will wait for his sons to kill each other!

"After a hundred years of the old man, the descendants of Jiangshan Sheji and the Cao family will please have no worries, and I hope to take good care of them, don't forget today's words, the old man is grateful here!"

"Serve the Prime Minister, and I will never give up!"

Cao Cao was extremely satisfied with Xiao Yi's two answers, clasped his hands into fists and bowed deeply, obviously entrusting the aftermath of his death.

However, what Cao Cao is most worried about is not the canonization of the Great Wei prince, nor the cannibalism of the sons, but the 'greedy wolf' in front of him, if it is not restricted, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains will be gained!

Therefore, the traitor secretly decided that he must set up a plan before his death, firmly restrain Xiao Yi, and let him always be the courtier of Great Wei, otherwise he will be lying in the coffin and will not be able to close his eyes!

After discussing two major matters in a row, Cao Cao and Xiao Yi were much more relaxed, and at this time, someone offered a wild sheep, which was fat, big and strong, and immediately bled and skinned, and disemboweled...... After cleaning, it is grilled on the campfire.

The two tasted mutton and talked about some military affairs; While looking down at the hunting ground, he soon noticed something interesting, and a large herd of elk appeared in the distance......
