There was a commotion, mixed with wailing, and the ministers walked hastily and staggered.

They pushed each other and tried to open a passage through the crowd.

On the muddy ground, a boot whose color cannot be seen appears from time to time.

All this made the ministers of the Wei Dynasty look extremely embarrassed.

Seeing this, clan relative Cao Jiu could not help but feel sad and lamented:

"In the past, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty first went to Chang'an and then returned to Luoyang. The ministers and ministers of the Manchu Dynasty lived in thatched huts and discussed affairs under the thatched huts, with thorns planted on all sides as shields."

"Now I look at the monarchs and ministers of the Wei Dynasty, first traveling to Xuchang and then to Qiao County. How is this moment similar to that of then?"

So he stayed up late lighting lamps and wrote "On the Six Dynasties". He presented it to the general under the guise of the posthumous writings of Cao Zhi, King of Chen, saying:

I heard that kings from ancient times must have the same surname to show their close relatives, and they must have different surnames to show the virtuous and virtuous... If you are not a virtuous person, you will not be able to achieve success, if you are not a relative, you will not be able to assist in governance... The sages knew this, so they sought out relatives and neglected them.

And use it.

If it is near, there will be the solidity of clan alliance and vassal guards; if it is far, there will be the help of benevolent and virtuous ministers; if it is prosperous, it will share its governance; if it is declining, it will protect its territory; if it is safe, it will enjoy its blessings; if it is dangerous, it will share its misfortunes.

…

The meaning is that because the Cao Wei regime does not attach importance to the clan, the power will fall to outsiders, and it is recommended to enfeoff the clan's children and grant them real military and political power in order to restrain powerful ministers with different surnames, strengthen the weak branches, and consolidate the rule of Cao Wei.

It's just that Cao Shuang, who has just arrived in Qiao County, is very busy. How can he be in the mood to read this long and smelly memorial?

Even if Chen Wangcai is famous all over the world, he is already a dead man, so he abandons it and ignores it.

King Cao Zhi of Jibei, who learned that his lord had an article in his name, read the article and thought it looked familiar.

Because he knew that his lord had indeed repeatedly reminded the late emperor:

When powerful people govern, they do not rely on relatives. Where the power lies, even if it is sparse, it must be strong; where the power is gone, even if it is close, it must be light.

Nowadays, the public clans are sparse and the surnames are different, which will cause trouble in the future.

I begged the late emperor to give the Cao clan a chance to defend the Wei Dynasty with vassal vassal.

The words in this article are quite similar to the memorials written by Your Excellency before.

That's why Cao Zhi felt familiar.

It's just that he looked through the catalog that recorded his family's articles, but couldn't find this article, and he already had some understanding in his mind.

Abandoning the book, he picked up the pot, took a long sip, and said to a certain direction, seemingly smiling but actually crying, seemingly joyful but actually sad:

"My lord, have you seen it now? Not to mention the late emperor, even if you can wait until today, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait until the day when the court changes its mind."

This Great Wei is really hopeless because he married his mother!

After drinking, he studied the ink by himself and wrote:

"Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time. I miss you very much and look forward to seeing you again."

Cao Zhi's elder brother, Cao Miao, was working in the fields in the countryside when he received the letter from the King of Jibei.

Spring is coming soon, so we need to prepare for spring plowing in advance.
