Chapter 2455 The hardest favor(1/2)
The General's Mansion.
Perhaps it will be called the Prime Minister's Mansion soon.
Although it is already dark, Boss Cao Cao is still reviewing various official documents.
While he was reviewing by candlelight, he was also teaching Cao Pi, who was sitting on one side: "Every one of the hundreds of departments in the court has his own duties. Although the minister is the most important, each has his own case and responsibilities.
Each is different. Now that you have grown up, you need to know these responsibilities and powers, and you also need to know how to use power to act. I will not say more to you. These lines are all backup copies of the previous approvals of various places by the Chancellery.
, there are many matters, and each one is involved. You should study and figure it out more, and be familiar with the rights..."
Cao Pi listened to his father's teachings seriously, but he didn't know what thoughts were running through his heart.
During this period of time, Cao Pi did feel that his father was paying more and more attention to his education. After all, these so-called political strategies and experience in governing and serving were not taught to him in such detail and detail, so that Cao Pi and others
I have to be on tenterhooks from time to time, and I am often under great pressure. I have to devote all my energy and energy to completing Boss Cao's homework.
But I can't complain...
At most, he just cursed a few words in his stomach.
After all, Cao Cao's current attitude and behavior clearly indicate that he should be cultivated as his successor and that he should start to try to share some of the pressure in government affairs.
When you wear a heavy crown on your head, it means that you have to pay something for the beauty of the crown, just like future generations have to pay for cervical spine deformity in order to watch short videos for a long time.
Cao Cao approved a few words, then put the official document in his hand aside, and picked up a new official document to read, but this time his approval speed was obviously slower...
This is a memorial from Lu Hong, saying that there have been many discussions in Xu County, including Taichang Liu Yi, etc., who have made slanderous remarks about the general in public, and please order a strict investigation.
"Taichang Liu Tai..." Cao Cao finished reading this memorial, pondered for a moment, raised his head and asked Cao Pi, "What do you think of Taichang?"
Cao Pi thought for a moment and organized his words, "Liu is an old minister. Although he is in a high position, he does not think about caution. He often speaks outright and lies. He is stubborn and stubborn..."
As Cao Pi spoke, he observed the expression of his father, Boss Cao.
For old guys like Liu Yi, basically no matter what generation they are from, they will be found in companies big and small. They are the kind of people who don't do much, but complain a lot. They are very unpopular and don't know it.
..
When everyone is self-centered, they think that the whole world and the whole universe revolves around them. Only when the eyes are open can the sun and the moon be seen. Only when the words are spoken can it be called a charter. Looking at all the living beings in the world, they feel that they are insignificant.
I am as majestic as a mountain, outstanding and transcendent. Some people will be educated to understand it when they are young, but some people will not, and then continue to be such self-centered idealists until they reach a certain age.
Just like Tai Chang Liu Yi.
Liu Yi is from Nanyang. When he was young, Nanyang was rich, and he was of royal blood. He lived very well in Nanyang. He didn't have to worry about food and clothing, and his beautiful concubines didn't have to worry about it. He won it early.
With the reputation of a famous person, he could win a favor wherever he went. Later, he was ranked as the Third Duke. Although he only took the blame and held the position for a year, he was the highest-ranking official in the Han Dynasty after all. Even if he retired, he would always be the official.
They are all ranked among the Nine Qings.
In terms of bloodline, there is blood, in terms of seniority, there is seniority, in terms of age, there is age, and in terms of fame, fame. Under such circumstances, Liu Yi is still extremely egotistical to this day. He is obsessed with leverage and always wants to tell others what to do.
A bad character who does things will just happen naturally.
What Liu Yi often said before, and also the most classic, is that if he was still in Luoyang when Dong Zhuo came to Beijing, he would definitely not have allowed the thieves to become so arrogant...
Well, when Dong Zhuo came, Liu Yi happened to be sick and took leave to go home.
Cao Cao frowned slightly and asked Cao Pi, "If you were to deal with this matter, what should you do?"
After hearing this, Cao Pi pondered for a moment and then said: "Why don't we move the old man to Zongzheng first? Or to Dahonglu? It will save trouble."
Cao Cao nodded slightly, this was an idea, but Cao Cao was still not satisfied, and asked, "Besides this, is there any other way?"
Cao Pi was suddenly stuck. He thought about it again, and then gestured with some helplessness, "Or..."
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Isn't it shameful to be punished for speaking out?"
Cao Pi blinked his eyes, Mi responded, and cursed, Dad, you just said that, don't think that I don't know how Xu died...
Cao Cao was a little helpless when he killed Xu You.
Whether in history or in the present, Cao Cao finally acquiesced in killing Xu You, not entirely because of Xu You's bad mouth. Most of the time, Boss Cao was relatively tolerant, or rather
He will consciously or unconsciously maintain a magnanimous image. Even if Chen Lin scolded him so much that he almost had a stroke, he would laugh afterwards to show his magnanimity.
There is only one thing that Boss Cao will never allow...
Well, it's not about robbing women.
It's authority.
This is Boss Cao's reverse scale.
Xu You actually made similar mistakes in history and among the current big men. They threatened Lao Cao's interests and authority. When Xu You muttered and complained at first, Cao Cao didn't care because he knew that everyone would do it.
When there are complaints, saying a word or two is nothing, but when Xu You's complaints are used by some people with ulterior motives, and become evidence, tools, or further threats, the whole thing is not the same.
It couldn't be simpler.
Xu You was not killed because of his complaints, just like Cao Cao killed Kong Rong, Yang Xiu, etc. in history, it was not purely for the purpose of killing people.
Cao Cao boasted that he was not a stingy person, nor did he begrudge the nobles. He treated many officials, nobles, powerful people, etc., and even those who had defected from the princes such as Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Liu Biao, etc., he treated them as kindly as possible. However,
It is precisely because of this that Lao Cao was especially angry at these guys for betraying him.
Doesn’t Lao Cao know how so-called “celebrities” like Xu You and Liu Yi became famous? I think Lao Cao also played this trick back then. These “celebrities” were, at a certain period,
It is true that they gave Cao Cao some help, even assistance that might change the situation of the war, but in the same way, Lao Cao also gave them corresponding rewards, but these people were not satisfied. After enjoying the power and position, they still showed greedy behavior.
Face.
Even so, Lao Cao didn't just kill him with one strike, but left a leeway until he was repeatedly provoked before he would ruthlessly kill him.
Now, Lao Cao wants to give Liu Yi another way and a little life.
Although most people in Xu County now know that Emperor Liu Xie is like a bird in a cage. Even if he flaps his wings, he can't fly into the sky. However, there are still some people who are not so much leading Cao Cao to find a way to get the salary.
, but generally my heart is still inclined to this caged bird, and considers myself a lonely and loyal minister of the great Han Dynasty.
After all, the Han Dynasty's three or four hundred years of subtle influence cannot be compared to the coldness of one day.
Therefore, since Cao Cao came to power, the resistance from these scholars actually made Cao Cao feel more embarrassed than ordinary officials. Especially the people who were personally awarded official positions by Cao Cao, including those in Yuzhou and Jizhou. If we say Yuzhou and Jizhou
The power of scholars is a powerful support for Cao Cao's throne, then these people are the thorns in the support!
It doesn't matter if you stick it in Cao Cao's butt and make him sit down, and it doesn't matter if he doesn't sit down.
In fact, this is indeed the case, because the students from poor families in Jizhou and Yuzhou, those who were ambitious and capable, gradually passed away when the three assistants in Guanzhong rose. These students from poor families may not be like the Eight Dragons like those from aristocratic families.
There are chefs from the Eight Tigers and Eight Cuisines, but as ordinary officials, there is no problem in taking on ordinary government affairs, and many of those who still stay in Jizhou and Yuzhou are lying down...
Cao Cao pondered for a moment, pulled out a new piece of paper, then wrote a few lines, dried them a little, and mixed them with Lu Hong's memorial. He was given to Cao Pi, "Think about it..."
Cao Pi took it with both hands, unfolded it, and saw written on the paper in the memorial:
"Liu's son was appointed Sima of Jizhou, and he returned to Ye on the same journey as Cui Governor."
……(*≧∪≦)……
Guanzhong, Chang'an.
After nightfall, the patrol officers on duty began to patrol the streets in Chang'an City again.
As the news spread that Fei Qian was granted the title of General, the gloom and tension that originally shrouded Chang'an seemed to be blown away by such a breeze...
Well, yes, to be precise, he is a hussar general, but just like in later generations, unless there is a deliberate grudge or a fool, he will specifically call a certain "deputy" director or "deputy" section chief.
"Deputy" General Manager and other titles are the same as the "Deputy" in front of the title. People who are the third assistant in Guanzhong naturally omit the two words in front of "Hussars General".
The hussar general is ranked above the three princes, and the general is also ranked above the three princes, so in some sense, they are indeed similar.
In such a festive atmosphere, the original curfew was postponed. Instead of closing the whole city at dusk, it was pushed back to Xuzheng time, which was eight o'clock in the evening in later generations.
It's just that everything in the world is often like this. The more relaxed and free you are, the more some people forget that after relaxation and freedom, you must have rules.
A horse-drawn carriage came from the Xinzhong Bridge on the Wei River.
There were several strong servants in front and behind the carriage. After getting off the Xinzhong Bridge, the carriage drove west along the street.
There was some sweat on the forehead of the driver who was driving, not because he was tired, but because he was nervous.
At this time, it was already past Xu Zheng, almost at the second moment of Xu Zheng, and they still needed to drive a little further before they could return to Zhen's residence. Not only that, when they arrived in front of the square, they had to open the square gate again.
, and it will take some time. Although most of the lanes in Chang'an Mausoleum will not be opened after they are closed, in order to deal with some special matters, some lanes will have side doors outside the main entrance.
In and out.
"Hurry up!"
"Don't get caught by the patrol!"
The people in the carriage didn't care that the vehicle was traveling too fast, causing their buttocks to bump and feel uncomfortable. They grabbed the handrail with both hands and lowered their voices to urge.
The carriage kicked and kicked, and as soon as it turned around the street, it saw the square gate in front of it, and happened to see a team of patrolmen riding out slowly from the street in the distance...
When the leader of the inspection team saw the group of carriages and horses, he frowned and raised his arms to signal the inspection behind him. At the same time, he shouted: "Who is in front of you?! How dare you violate the prohibition of traveling at night! Stop immediately!"
Following the voice of the inspection captain, four cavalrymen were separated from the queue, holding bows and knives, and galloped forward along both sides of the street!
Almost in the blink of an eye, several cavalrymen arrived in front of the carriage.
Some of the servants on the left and right of the carriage subconsciously held up sticks to protect the sides of the carriage, but most of them turned pale with fear and wanted to hide under the carriage.
To be continued...
