The first thousand two hundred and sixty-ninth chapters care about the establishment of the heir
Chapter 1269: Concerning the Establishment of Heirs
Yes, Yi Xiaotian spoke openly about the situation in Jiangdong in his heart, and told Cao Cao (Master Guo) and others that as long as they could send troops according to his request, Liu Bei would definitely be able to capture it.
But apart from this...Yi Xiaotian also hopes that Master Mao can persuade Cao Cao to allow Jiangdong to have the right to autonomy in the future - now that the Duke of Wei has been established, Yi Xiaotian's meaning is actually clear enough, that is, Jiangdong will surrender to Wei.
, is under the jurisdiction of Wei State, but in fact it can be regarded as an independent political region and can govern various internal affairs autonomously.
Another requirement to ensure this is naturally to recognize Sun Quan’s status as the Lord of Jiangdong——
Everyone didn't react for a while. Some were shocked, some were confused, but most of them didn't understand Yi Xiaotian's 180-degree change in attitude...
Why?
Why did Yi Xiaotian, who had been helping them for so long, come up with such a...such...at such a critical moment when he was about to take over the entire territory of Jiangdong?
"Mr. Yi... no... what on earth is this Yi Xiaotian thinking! Such a rude request has to be made to the Lord. Does he really not take the Lord seriously?"
Finally, someone spoke angrily, which suddenly ignited the weird atmosphere in the place.
Yes, this request is so rude... To put it bluntly, it is like riding on Cao Cao's head and domineering, relying on Cao Cao's connivance to him, and wantonly squandering everyone's respect for him.
The key...the key is thinking about it...many people even began to have doubts about Yi Xiaotian's position.
"Is Yi Xiaotian really surrendering to the enemy?"
I don't know who made the same remarks as Yushi Hua Xin and others, which made many people's expressions become a little stiff.
Not long ago, Cao Cao defended Yi Xiaotian against all opinions, saying that Yi Xiaotian must have his own reasons for not coming back.
But...looking at Cao Cao now, although Cao Cao's expression was not very disturbing...but everyone now unanimously felt the embarrassment Cao Cao was facing.
"Yi Xiaotian really doesn't know how his lord defends him in front of the civil and military ministers?
Is this how he treats his lord who trusts him so much?
If this is really the case...Lord, I see..."
The discussion among the people on the scene gradually deviated in a somewhat dangerous direction.
To be a minister of Cao Cao, or rather... to be a minister of a man who had achieved hegemony during the troubled years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, if he was weak at heart and not a little cold in his temper, then he would be out of place.
Finally... before the topic deviated, someone stood up and eased the atmosphere - but this person's identity... was somewhat intriguing.
"Everyone, please calm down... We should put aside the discussion about Mr. Yi for the time being. After all, the most important thing at the moment has not yet been concluded. Why not first listen to my lord's views on the defeat of Liu Bei?"
Xun You and Jia Xu, who had said nothing until now, were all looking at a corner of the room.
This is the study room of Cao Cao's former Prime Minister's Mansion. The room is not very spacious, so if there are more people, they will naturally have to stand in the corner.
It's just... this has nothing to do with status, it seems to be only about a person's character and his inner thoughts——
"What Cui Shangshu said is absolutely true... We have more important issues to deal with at the moment, so you might as well calm down first."
Cheng Yu's eyes were strange, mainly because the identity of the person who Yi Xiaotian rescued was indeed somewhat...
Cui Yan walked out of the corner at this moment, and everyone also made a way for him.
He and Cao Cao looked at each other, not far apart. He stood extremely tall and straight. He didn't seem to have any guilt when he said this, but just out of a sense of justice in his heart.
Cao Cao nodded and didn't say anything more. He sighed first, then looked around for a week. Seeing that everyone's anger was gradually dissipating, he slowly said:
"At this point, I believe Brother Yi...he doesn't need to make fun of such a serious matter. In fact, before he set off, he had already asked me to assign some people to stay in various places, presumably for this moment.
."
"But it may be hard for you to believe that this is actually a big game played by Brother Yi, regarding... the follow-up arrangements for the previously unfinished heir examination."
Hearing what Cao Cao said, Jia Xu and Xun You suddenly raised their eyebrows. They exchanged looks in a tacit understanding, and both noticed the surprise and relief in each other's eyes.
Sure enough, in their understanding, no matter what Yi Xiaotian does, it will naturally not be just a whim. It seems that the reason why Cao Cao has been so protective of Yi Xiaotian is probably because of what Yi Xiaotian said to him alone.
But neither of them quite understood why Cao Cao had to hold back until now when he knew such an important thing.
However, the two people couldn't figure out the reason why Cao Cao was telling what Yi Xiaotianlin had told him before setting off, but Cui Yan's smile suddenly froze.
Because he heard Cao Cao mention the matter of the heir examination for no reason, he naturally thought of something.
Cao Cao didn't say much, just faced Cui Yan normally and continued:
"Do you know where Ang'er and Pi'er are now?"
Speaking of this matter, everyone was talking about it. In fact, everyone was quite concerned about the establishment of an heir a little over half a year ago. After all, there was such a big fuss at that time, and many people with very high status had already chosen to side with a certain prince - for example
The second son Cao Pi, the fourth son Cao Zhi, and even Cao Zhang also had some military officials who were building momentum for him.
But later on, Cao Cao seemed to realize that the struggle for heirship was gradually developing in an uncontrollable direction, so he chose to conduct a preliminary assessment and screening. This time, the officials did not know too many details about the assessment and screening.
I only know that Cao Zhang was pinned down by the Xiahou brothers later, and now he is training in the army and has not been heard from for a long time.
Another thing that shocked many people should be Cao Zhi's voluntary withdrawal - Cao Zhi is now a famous celebrity in Yecheng, but he has gone in another rather extreme direction.
Now Cao Zhi is the idol of thousands of girls in Yecheng. Cao Zhi, who frequently visited Yingyan's places, couldn't help but express his talent more freely and happily, writing one popular poem after another, and even spread the word in the city
, regardless of whether you are a young lady or not, as long as you can spend one night with Cao Zhi and become a so-called "Zhi Zhi", you will surely bring glory to your family in the future and live a life of glory and wealth.
Cao Zhi's development greatly disappointed many people who had supported him in the past. Some people reported to Cao Cao privately, saying that Cao Zhi was extravagant, which was really a disgrace to the Cao family.
Who would have thought that after hearing such remarks, Cao Cao publicly announced to the world: Even if my son Cao Zhi is romantic, he will be the most talented and talented scholar in the world. This not only did not embarrass the Cao family, but instead added glory to the Cao family.
.
In short... Since then, people have understood that the so-called heir struggle is no longer limited to the fight between Cao Pi and Cao Ang.
The smell of gunpowder has not completely dissipated yet. The problem is that after Yi Xiaotian personally took action, a series of official documents on the examination of the establishment of an heir were posted, which finally completely stopped everyone's idea of interfering in the establishment of an heir.
In this flash, half a year has passed - where are Cao Pi and Cao Ang?
