Since the beginning of the construction of the First Palace before Cao Cao's death in the Wei Dynasty, the palaces in Luoyang have been repaired many times, and now they no longer have the dilapidated scene of Dong Zhuo's burning of Luoyang.
As far as the eye can see, there are beautiful pavilions, pavilions, ponds, pavilions, rockeries, rocks, flowers, trees and bamboos that complement each other.
The verandahs outside the side halls are all exquisite and unique. Although they are not as majestic and majestic in appearance, there are countless maids in beautiful costumes walking through them, bustling with people. However, Cao Rui, the emperor of Wei, who was walking slowly by, was fascinated by the beautiful scenery. The maid is not nostalgic.
If you look carefully, you can still find a hint of disgust in his deeply furrowed brows.
Following him step by step, there were two children about three or four years old.
It's Cao Fang and Cao Xun.
He just stood out from a group of children from the same clan and was allowed to live in the palace confinement by Cao Rui.
Because they will have Cao Rui as their father in a few months.
As young people, they didn't know what this meant. But before coming to the palace for confinement, their parents had repeatedly warned them not to joke, not to make noise, not to be stubborn when they saw something they liked, etc.
But it is obvious that they behave in a restrained manner and can be described as silent.
Because the emperor who was ordered to pay homage by the palace was in a very strange mood.
When I first met them, I smiled kindly and asked them softly whether they were enlightened, whether they had learned the words in the calligraphy book, what they liked to play, and personally stuffed candied fruits and dried fruits into their hands. But very soon. Quick, I don’t know why, but they obviously followed the family’s instructions and did nothing wrong, but the emperor looked sad, got up and walked away.
So they were helped up by the palace attendants and hurriedly followed behind them, not daring to express their anger.
Fortunately, after only following for a short distance, the palace attendants stopped them, saluted the emperor's back and turned to the other side.
Cao Fang, who was younger, turned back curiously after walking for a while and took a timid glance.
But he found that the emperor stopped and turned around at some point, staring directly at him.
He was startled.
In the panic, Fu Lingxin remembered the instructions of the adults in the family for some reason, and smiled at the emperor before bowing his head and walking.
He didn't know that this smile made Cao Rui's eyes filled with sadness for an instant.
He turned his head and let out a faint sigh.
"If my Yin'er is still alive, she would be of the same age now. She would also start to learn literacy books, ask for candied fruits from my hand, and talk to me with a smile on her face."
As soon as he said these words, the attendants beside him all bowed their heads and held their breath, fearing that they would make no sound.
Yin'er is the youngest son of Cao Rui, Cao Yin, the king of Anping.
Born in the fifth year of Taihe, Cao Rui, who had already lost two sons at that time, was overjoyed and granted amnesty to the world.
However, before he could be established as the prince by Cao Rui, he died before he was one year old.
What's more, in the next few years, Cao Rui had no children born, and the countless concubines or palace servants he favored were not even pregnant.
In desperation, in order to ensure the continuity of the country, today's move was made. Children were selected from the clan and adopted in the palace, and none of the selected children were after Wei Wen and Cao Pi.
Because most of Cao Pi's other eight sons died young or had no heirs.
Only Cao Lin, King of the East China Sea, has an heir.
This was the reason why Cao Fang was chosen and Cao Xun was adopted in the palace, but Cao Rui did not immediately tell the temple to adopt him.
Externally, he sneered at the "Wei Dynasty and Han Dynasty invited heavenly punishment" clamored by Bashu scholars Qiao Zhou, but when he was sitting alone late at night, he could not help but doubt the existence of ghosts and gods.
Therefore, it is better to postpone the adoption for the time being and at least make some preparations first.
Yes, Cao Rui once again had the idea of changing the Yuan Dynasty and changing the system.
Not only the issue of heirs, but also what happened in the past few months made him feel that the title of "Qinglong" should not be continued, and many rituals should be changed.
For example, in mid-winter last year in November, an earthquake struck Luoyang, Kyoto, from the southeast. There was a faint sound and the roof tiles were shaking.
Now, after spring, the Empress Dowager died, and meteorites fell in Shouguang County.
Not to mention, Ni Shu actually captured the entire territory of Liangzhou in just a few months.
It just so happened that some court officials had reported earlier that Wei had gained territorial control, the country was prosperous, and many of the Zhou systems were inappropriate for the time; and officials from prefectures and counties reported that a yellow dragon had appeared.
Cao Rui, who had temporarily mourned for a while, stopped suddenly once again as he was heading to the Chancellor's Desk.
"Summon Gao Tangqing into the palace."
Gaotangqing is the servant of Gaotanglong.
After Gao Tangsheng, a former Han Dynasty scholar, he was erudite and good at fortune-telling. He was also the royal tutor when Cao Ruinai was the king of Pingyuan.
If you have the idea of changing the Yuan Dynasty and changing the system, he is an indispensable consultant.
The Wei Dynasty inherited the Han system, so the Chancellor's Desk was still located in the palace. It served both the Chinese and foreign dynasties, and all official memorials at all levels were recorded here.
This time Cao Rui left, it was Sima Yi's report on how to deal with Liangzhou's failure.
After a while, when I arrived, all the important ministers were waiting in the middle stage.
Compared with the previous important ministers who often recruited to discuss military affairs and state affairs, the only people listed this time were Chen Jiao, the minister, Sun Zi, the secretary of the Central Committee, Liu Fang, the eunuch of the Central Secretary, Yang Ji, the leader of the Central Army, and Jiang Ji, the protector of the Central Military Commission. I met Sikong Chenqun, the Minister of Gu Ming, and Liu Ye, the Taizhong doctor.
Among them, Chen Qun was old and sick, and Cao Rui rarely devoted himself to state affairs.
Liu Ye died of illness last year.
Therefore, few people commented on the countermeasures proposed by the important minister and general Sima Yi.
Rather than calling it a joint discussion, it would be better to call it supplementary details and edicts to implement the policy.
After all, as Emperor Cao Rui was eager to recapture Longyou and Liangzhou, they had no better suggestions or countermeasures.
Late spring in March.
Wei Yi Huanglong appeared, changed the Yuan Dynasty to "Jingchu", and announced it to the world.
In order to gain territorial control, the Yin rites were used to change the system of the Zhou Dynasty. The color of the uniforms was yellow, the sacrifices were white, the military affairs were carried out on white horses with black heads, the big red flag was built, and the big white flag was built at court meetings.
General amnesty means that from death to death, all undeserved forgiveness will be forgiven.
He adopted the prince and raised his heir, making Cao Fang the king of Qi and Cao Xun the king of Qin.
Emperor Cao Rui visited Yedu and Xuchang Palace, and along the way he gave grain to widowers, widowers, and those who were too poor to survive on their own.
But what is most eye-catching is the changes in pastoral care in various states and counties.
Tian Yu, who had not been serving as the governor of Xuzhou for a short time, was transferred to the governor of Bingzhou, and also led the Xiongnu Zhonglang General to support the festival.
He was changed to the Agricultural School Lieutenant, and Hu Zhi, the servant, was added as the governor of Jingzhou. Wang Chang was appointed as the general to conquer the south, holding the festival, replacing Xiahou Ru as the governor of Jingzhou and the military in Yuzhou; Original county.
He also ordered the five tribes of the Xiongnu to be loyal and trustworthy, and to be especially kind and honorable.
Liu Gaoshengyuan, the son of Qubei, the king of Youxian of the Southern Xiongnu, was appointed King of Xiutu, and Liu Bao, the protector of the left side of Shuofang, was appointed King of Hunxie. They were all awarded the seal of Wei, a green-covered chariot, a carriage, a sword, a jade ornament, etc., and ordered him to The migrated tribesmen returned to the feudal country.
Tuoba Liwei was granted the title of Lord Protector of Wei Xianbei, and he was given the title of Tuoba Desert Khan, a proton from Luoyang. He was also given more than a hundred chariots and thousands of forged horses, and ordered Sima Yi, the governor of Yongliang, to escort him.
Sima Yi received the edict and sent Deng Ai to send three thousand troops to Helan Mountain.
