Chapter 93 Cao Weis past in Luoyang, Cao Fangs anger!
When Emperor Wu was alive, he failed to build properly and enjoy the scenery of Luoyang City. He only focused on fighting wars and expanding the territory, building the Bronze Bird Tower and the Wei Palace in Ye City.
It was only in the last few years of his life that he prepared to move the capital of the Wei Dynasty to Luoyang, and he only rebuilt the ruins of Luoyang that Dong Zhuo had destroyed with a fire.
After all, it would take only a few decades to restore the ruins of the past to the glory of the Han imperial capital.
At the beginning of the twenty-fourth year of Jian'an (219), Liu Bei attacked Hanzhong, Xia Houyuan died in the battle, and Cao Cao personally led the troops to Hanzhong.
At the same time, Guan Yu attacked Fancheng and flooded the Seventh Army. Armed forces under Guan Yu's remote control appeared around Xuchang. Cao Cao had no choice but to order his royal capital to be moved to Luoyang.
Soon after arriving in Luoyang, Cao Cao ordered Xu Huang to lead his troops to rescue Fancheng.
Cao Cao also personally led an army to Mobei (Jiaxian County, Henan Province, 130 kilometers south of Luoyang).
Later, Lu Meng attacked Jingzhou secretly, and Guan Yu defeated Maicheng. After the crisis was resolved, Cao Cao returned to the capital of Luoyang from Mobei in the first month of 220 AD.
After Lu Meng got Guan Yu's head, Bi Yaner had an idea and came up with a plan to divert trouble to the north. He sent Guan Yu's head to Luoyang and sent it to Luoyang to claim credit for Cao Cao.
Although Cao Cao saw through Biyan'er's head at a glance, he did not give Soochow the nominal right of submission to Jingzhou that he wanted. He did not even agree to divide Jingzhou equally, so he did not receive the Wu envoy again.
He also didn’t want to get involved in this mess. After all, it was Bi Yaner who caused the trouble. He couldn’t let himself get no benefits and have to take the blame for Bi Yaner. Guan Yu, who was already on the verge of rage and eager to avenge his brother, became sworn brother.
, the anger of Liu Bei’s army, the leader of Shu Han,
After all, he had just suffered a heavy loss from the big-eared thief Liu Bei at Dingjun Mountain in Hanzhong, losing many generals and men.
Among them, Xia Houyuan, who fought for him in all directions and made great achievements in battle, and was nicknamed General Baidi, also died at the hands of Huang Zhong, a veteran of the big-eared thief Liu Bei.
At this moment, he did not want to confront the big-eared thief who was holding the fire of revenge, which would further expand the losses of the Wei army. Besides, he was only following Sima Yi's advice.
He was asked to go to Soochow as an envoy to acknowledge Biyan'er's rule over Jiangdong. He was allowed to take advantage of the big-eared thief Liu Bei's fierce battle with him in Hanzhong to seize Jingzhou. He was not allowed to capture Guan Yu, but was asked to send his head to Luoyang to claim credit.
Bi Yan'er's original intention was also to let Lu Meng capture Guan Yu, and finally hand over an intact Five Tiger General to his brother-in-law Liu Xuande.
However, Lu Meng, the governor-general whom he personally appointed, did not listen to his orders and blamed the death of Zhou Gongjin, the first governor-general of Soochow, on the Shu Han people.
Zhou Gongjin did not recognize the fact that he had a bad mentality and was angry to death. He insisted on disobeying the order of the lord Bi Yaner and surrounded Guan Yu and committed suicide.
This is not the end. After Guan Yu died, Lu Meng not only did not find a good coffin for him to be buried alive, but cut off his head and presented it to his lord Sun Quan as a gift for the great victory. Sun Quan saw Guan Yu's head
The head is full of energy,
When Commander Lu went out to conquer Jingzhou, he made a good confession to him, telling him not to touch Guan Yu in the slightest. As long as he captured him, he could negotiate peace with his brother-in-law Liu Bei in the future.
He also told him the pros and cons of this. If he killed Guan Yu, he would be fighting to the death with Liu Bei, but he just didn't listen. During the period of Lü Meng's campaign in Jingzhou,
I have always been on tenterhooks, and I will send a messenger to Jingzhou in a day or two to convey my order, telling him that he only needs to capture Guan Yu.
But Lu Meng refused to listen. Not only did he allow Guan Yu to commit suicide in front of him, but he also cut off Guan Yu's head and sent it to Jianye as a gift for victory.
My brother-in-law, the big-eared Liu Bei, will probably know the news in a few days. What he was most worried about has happened. No matter how angry he is, there is nothing he can do.
If Lu Meng is handed over to his brother-in-law, the ministers will also be disappointed, and the brother-in-law will probably not be satisfied with this explanation. This will not please both parties.
Not wanting to find another way to solve the problem, Biyan'er thought about it carefully. Didn't Cao Cao send someone to persuade him to take advantage of Guan Yu's Northern Expedition and the emptiness of Jingzhou to seize it?
Then I might as well leave this trouble to Cao Cao and let him share some of the pressure brought by his brother-in-law. If it works better,
It's hard to imagine that Cao Cao could be allowed to take the blame for Soochow, and bear the wrath of his brother-in-law for himself. In this way, Soochow could sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, and watch Shu and Wei fight, and both sides would suffer.
Then Soochow came to the rescue again, and Bi Yan'er thought very well, but who was Cao Cao, how could he let him get his wish?
Although the "gift" Biyan'er sent to the capital of Wei for Cao Cao, the king of Wei, frightened him a lot, and he suffered from a headache and couldn't afford to fall ill.
However, Cao Cao did not agree to Wu Envoy's request and admitted that he was the one who instigated Soochow to kill Guan Yu. After all, the killing of Guan Yu had nothing to do with him.
Because he admired Guan Yu as a person, he posthumously made Guan Yu the King of Jing, carved agarwood for his body, and buried him fifteen miles south of Luoyang City with royal rites, and built a temple to worship him.
Seeing that Bi Yan'er framed Cao Wei and asked them to bear some of her brother-in-law's anger, even the strategy of taking the blame didn't work, so the Soochow family had no choice but to bear everything.
After enduring the wrath of his brother-in-law Liu Bei's army, he finally forced Lu Xun to burn all the soldiers and horses his brother-in-law brought with him at a very small cost. His brother-in-law died of illness in Baidi City, and the Sun and Liu families did not have close contact with each other for several years.
After Cao Cao died of illness in Luoyang, Cao Pi succeeded him as prime minister and king of Wei from Yecheng to Luoyang. The 25th year of Jian'an was changed to the first year of Yankang.
After Cao Pi became emperor, Wu and Shu quickly reconciled, which shattered his dream of quick unification. After four generations of Cao Wei monarchs, the
The city of Luoyang has become as prosperous as it was when Cao Fang succeeded to the throne. There are many imperial residences and palaces, and it has the atmosphere of the emperor's capital in the Han Dynasty...
And Cao Fang returned to Xiao Zhen's palace for dinner. When the food and wine for the dinner were served, he ordered everyone to leave and only let Xiao Zhen serve him for the dinner. Even Supervisor Zhang Dangzhang was not allowed to stand aside.
serve.
"My dear concubine, it's really frustrating for me to be the emperor. I want power but not power, and I want people but no one. So many aristocratic families went to flatter Cao Shuang tonight, but at my dinner party last night,
But no aristocratic family comes to support me, am I, the emperor, worse than a prime minister?" Cao Fang said angrily,
Xiao Zhen scooped a bowl of lotus root soup for Cao Fang and served Cao Fang to drink it spoon by spoon, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Although Cao Shuang is proud now, it is only temporary. One day, he will
My father and the ministers in the court who are loyal to Your Majesty have accumulated enough strength, and they will definitely be able to remove this thief for Your Majesty and allow Your Majesty to regain power!"...
