Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2656 Birth height
Kong Rong's affairs are still so troublesome?

Cao Pi was a little dazed.

Didn't Cao Pi think that he was just catching a poor man?

Even this poor surname Kong.

"Personal matters...sometimes are more important than business affairs..." Mrs. Bian said calmly, but her tone was very serious, "There seems to be some rumors outside recently... have you paid attention to it? 』

"what?This... child never noticed..." Cao Pi said.He really didn't think so much, but looking at Mrs. Bian's face, Cao Pi realized that the matter seemed serious right away.

So just now Cao Cao was very dissatisfied with Cao Pi's answer of fooling around, and it is naturally reasonable.

What exactly is the problem?
Mrs. Bian frowned, and looked at Cao Pi very seriously, "Both public and private are very important!"Do you know? !Pay more attention! 』

Cao Pi shivered for a moment, forced a smile and said, "Mother, it won't be..."

Cao Pi understood that although Mrs. Bian did not reprimand loudly, it was already a warning.

Mrs. Bian fixed her eyes on Cao Pi, "For public and private purposes, pay more attention!"understand?Do you want me to say it again? 』

This is the second time it is emphasized.

"Ming... I understand..." Cao Pi said that he understood, but he knew in his heart that he must have not understood something.

"So what did your brother say about Kong Wenju, is that correct? Madam Bian said softly, "Especially Chong'er, who is so smart at such a young age... Sigh, you have to be more careful, you should think about it carefully and use more snacks... Remember that you can only worry about it in your heart , must not be advertised outside! 』

Mrs. Bian's voice was very soft, but her complexion was serious.

Cao Pi nodded awe-inspiringly.

Madam Bian looked at Cao Pi, finally nodded and left.

Cao Pi saw off his mother first, then turned back and sat alone in the small study, frowning...

After thinking for a while, Cao Pi's face gradually became serious.

There are some things that can be done on the spot, can be said, and can also be done, but there are some things that cannot be said, but can only be done, and even they cannot be discovered and done.

Cao Cao is the prime minister, so at least the scene is for the great man and the country.

And Cao Pi is the second generation of the Cao family, so of course some things must conform to the style of the second generation of the Cao family...

and many more.

Cao Pi seemed to have thought of something, and his brows furrowed more and more.

It was rare for his mother to be so serious and say such a thing, and once she said it, it meant that things were very important.

Being serious doesn't mean you have to shout.

Or intimidation.

A calm tone can also be a serious warning.

Parents should not warn their children lightly, and then nothing happens after the warning, not even being beaten or scolded twice, it seems to pass after sleeping, this will leave a warning to the child that is useless Impression, after a lot of times, the child will naturally think that the warning is really useless. When the child encounters serious things in the society and is warned, he thinks it is a joke!
then……

It's often nothing after that.

Mrs. Bian seldom gave Cao Pi a warning, but if Cao Pi failed to do so after the warning, generally speaking, the ass blossomed is indispensable, and the best thing is to stand in the courtyard for two or three hours.

In the later generations, there will always be educators who say that corporal punishment should not be allowed on children, and then a group of fools will make it absolute, not touching a finger, not missing a hair...

Of course it is wrong to blindly use sticks to educate people, but it is also wrong not to lose even a single hair.Everyone knows that things should not go to extremes or be simplified, but knowing and doing are always two different things.

Why is it said that a child's growth environment is very important and will affect the child's life? It is not about the cost of food and clothing for the child, but the complexity of the relationships between the various characters that the child comes into contact with.

Just like the children of the Han Dynasty may not be able to have all kinds of materials, toys, electronic products and so on of the children of the later generations, but the children of the later generations who have many items may not be much smarter than the current Cao Pi.

Cao Cao is cultivating, pushing Cao Pi to grow, leading him to fight the enemy, watching life and death, leading him to deal with official affairs, watching the interests surge, naturally compared with later generations, although there is more information, but the same information is more chaotic and ineffective Children have a higher growth space.

Although it is said that Cao Pi is still a little bearish, he may be more mature than the later generations who are in their twenties, or even 40 years old.

That's why Mrs. Bian told Cao Pi what she said before.

Mrs. Bian warned Cao Pi to pay special attention to Kong Rong's affairs. Don't think that Kong Rong's affairs are far away from him and are other people's affairs. Just stand aside and eat melons.

Cao Pi really didn't think so much before.

Or he thinks that things are very simple, or that things are other people's business.

But obviously, this matter is not simple.

Cao Pi thought of the strange rumors that seemed to be outside in the past two days.

Weird, yes, weird.

But before Mrs. Bian's reminder, Cao Pi didn't feel this way.Mrs. Bian is keen, she has noticed that the current direction of the wind seems to be a bit weird...

To put it simply, what would normal people do if they were arrested?
Should we find a way to rescue people first, or wait for a while, let us first discuss what is "orthodoxy", and should we have this "orthodoxy"?
The so-called "orthodox" refers to the word "li" mentioned by Mrs. Bian just now, or "ritual law".

Cao Pi thought about it slowly, straightened out a little bit, and then he realized that Mrs. Bian had already prepared for it.She asked Cao Pi to take Cao Chong with her like a good brother, just like Cao Pi took Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang back then, and now she continues to ask Cao Pi to take Cao Chong.

Questions?

Of course Cao Pi felt that there was a problem. He told Mrs. Bian that it would be fine to take Cao Zhi and Cao Zhang with him. Who do you love to take with you...

Who is born to like to bring bear children?

Then there are so many years in one area, one after another.Is this over yet?

Cao Pi said he wants to be free!

But before Cao Pi raised his hand and yelled "For freedom", Madam Bian pressed him down and gave him a good beating.

The kind that makes bloody marks on the buttocks with thorns.

When Cao Cao heard about it, he clapped his hands and sneered twice, saying that the fight was good, he flung his sleeves and left.

Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Chong are all children of Cao Cao.

Mrs. Bian and Mrs. Huan are both wives of Cao Cao.

What else?
His uncle, his second uncle...

Uh, it's crossed.

Cao Cao's posture, well, there are actually more children, but many of these children died during the growth process.

In history, Cao Cao has a total of 25 sons, but there is only one under Cao Cao's buttocks.

Cao Cao also has some adopted sons, but according to the convention, the adopted sons do not participate in the competition for the butt.

Cao Cao's 12 sons, Cao Shuo, Cao Xiong, Cao Chong, Cao Xuan, Cao Ju, Cao Shang, Cao Qin, Cao Cheng, Cao Zheng, Cao Jing, Cao Jun, and Cao Ji, all died young or died young. Not of age.

There were only 13 adults. Among these 13, Cao Ang died in battle. Cao Ju, Cao Yu, Cao Lin, Cao Gun, Cao Jun, Cao Gan, and Cao Biao were all mediocre. .

Among the remaining five sons, Cao Hui and Cao Mao didn't like Cao Cao, so in the end, only Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, and Cao Zhang competed for the position in history.And Cao Zhang, who likes martial arts to lead the army, voluntarily withdrew and did not participate in the competition, so only Cao Pi and Cao Zhi were competing for the throne.

The same is true in Mrs.

Cao Cao's earliest concubine was Mrs. Liu. She gave birth to Cao Cao's first two children, Cao Ang and Cao Shuo. As a result, Cao Ang died in battle, Cao Shuo died young, and she also died early, but she and Mrs. Bian proved together that life The problem of not having children is not Cao Cao, but Mrs. Ding.

So Mrs. Ding quit the game after Cao Ang's death.

Mrs. Bian will be the next eldest sister.

But Mrs. Bian has inherent shortcomings. She was born as a singer, and she is a raised singer.Also known as geisha, or geisha.Although when it comes to work, there is no distinction between high and low, and the princess in KTV is also a profession, but it is said that, in reality, the secular concept is another matter.

Under Mrs. Bian is Mrs. Huan.

Mrs. Huan's background is much better than Mrs. Bian's.

Mrs. Huan is from Pengcheng.

Xuzhou Pengcheng.

Huan's is not a common surname, but it has a lot of origins.

As early as when Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou, the Huan family bet on Cao Cao.

This is actually the same as Mi Zhu and Mi Fang's betting on Liu Bei's family.It's just that there are so few people under Liu Bei, so the three-legged cat can also be used to catch mice, and when Cao Cao married Mrs. Huan, he already had many advisers, and they were basically first-class and quasi-first-class. When several people want to compare, it is natural that there is no strategy, no means, no means...

The problem is, not everyone is self-aware.

There are also many people in the Huan family who feel that they are relatives among relatives, and they should have some status to some extent. How can they not have the slightest authority to speak and do things cheaply?
What should I do?
Raise the status of Mrs. Huan, the Huan family is from a decent family no matter what, and of course it will be better than Mrs. Bian.

Don't talk about discrimination or non-discrimination, just say that if your child is about to marry, his or her spouse has two choices, one is a general occupation, and the other is a special occupation in a custom place. You can only choose one Which one would a normal person choose?
Don't talk about any special examples, such as mud and...

There is no need to discuss whether it is politically correct or not, it is just the choice of most people, which one will they choose?

So now the problem comes.

Mrs. Bian, Mrs. Huan, which one can be regarded as the truly suitable wife for Cao Cao?

I didn't have to choose before, but now I can choose, why not?
Even if you are not sure now, it is always no problem to try one or two, right?

Just in time.

One sheep is chased, and two sheep are also chased, just like Cao Pi's younger brother is like this, two younger brothers, three younger brothers...

Cao Pi suddenly felt a chill on his back and sweat on his forehead.

After a while, Cao Zhi came back from a stroll outside. Seeing Cao Pi sitting still, he seemed a little dazed, so he stepped up to Cao Pi's side, "How are you, brother?" 』

"Kong Wenju must die! ’ Cao Pi gritted his teeth and said.

"Ah, huh? ”Cao Zhi was stunned for a moment, then shook his hands in front of Cao Pi a few times, “What?brother? 』

"Um? ! ’Cao Pi shrank back suddenly, and then saw Cao Zhi, ‘Ah, when did you come? 』

"I just came here..." Cao Zhi stared at Cao Pi, "Brother, what were you talking about just now?" 』

"Brother Chong went back? Cao Pi didn't answer, but asked rhetorically.

Cao Zhi nodded, "Go back. 』

Cao Pi pondered for a while, "Well... Brother Chong, have you said anything special to you these few days? 』

The relationship between Cao Chong and Cao Zhi is obviously better than that with Cao Pi.There may be some congenial ingredients to this, but also some child instinct.Children will choose children who are slightly older than themselves, and then follow behind, but if the age gap is large, this will not happen again.This is a human instinct to admire the strong. Children will worship and follow older children as "similar" strong men, but regard those who are much older as "heterogeneous".

Cao Zhi tilted his head and thought for a while, "It's nothing special.Brother, what do you want to ask? 』

"For example, in terms of orthodoxy and etiquette..." Cao Pi asked.

Cao Zhi laughed, "He is still so young, how can he understand these things?" 』

"Well, that's true. 』Cao Pi nodded.

"What's wrong? ’ Cao Zhi asked, ‘What happened? 』

The relationship between Cao Pi and Cao Zhi is not as tragic or cruel as it was portrayed by later generations.Cao Pi is suspicious and has inherited his father's fine traditions, but Cao Pi has not yet reached the point where he wants to kill his own brother. The so-called seven-step poems are not all true, and most likely they are half-truths and half-false.

It is very likely that Cao Zhi wrote the seven-step poem if it is true, but it is not written after walking seven steps on the spot.

Because Chinese people have sympathized with the weak and hated the strong since ancient times.In the process of oral eulogy from generation to generation, because of Cao Pi's domineering and ruthless, he was vilified by the eulogists; on the contrary, he greatly beautified and deified Cao Zhi.Then there is Cao Zhi who is not afraid, calm and composed, within seven steps, speaks every step of the way, and finally writes a poem.

But in fact, Cao Pi must have a bad relationship with Cao Zhi in the end, because they each represent different interest groups, but the so-called Cao Pi used the name to engage Cao Zhi in court, and he had to do something that Cao Zhi is best at, in front of everyone. The retreat route is blocked first to "engage" Cao Zhi. Maybe people think that Cao Pi sacrificed his own image to praise Cao Zhi's status...

Alas?Is it really possible?Cao Pi and Cao Zhi play double reeds?
But no matter what, the relationship between Cao Pi and Cao Zhi brothers is not bad at present, so after Cao Zhi asked Cao Pi, Cao Pi pondered for a while and said: "Someone wants to take the opportunity to make trouble..."

"Who? ’ Cao Zhi asked.

"Kong Wenju. ’ said Cao Pi.

"Uh? 』Cao Zhi also failed to react.

"I told you, don't spread a single word to the outside world. ”Cao Pi squinted at Cao Zhi, “If you can’t do it, don’t listen. 』

Is Cao Pi calm?Not calm.But who is born calm?Cao Pi at least learned to be calm for some reason, although he did not do well in history.

But now that the two of them are half-grown children, it is already very good to be able to analyze problems and try to solve them. They are much better than many young ancestors in later generations.

The environment of the ancient feudal dynasty forced them to mature and grow as soon as possible.

Seeing his elder brother's seriousness, Cao Zhi gradually put away his smiling face, thought for a while, nodded and said, "Got it.Cannot be passed on. 』

Seeing that Cao Zhi thought for a while before agreeing, rather than a casual answer, Cao Pi nodded and said slowly: "Someone wants to associate Kong Wenju with etiquette... If you kill Kong Wenju, it means It’s going to break the etiquette…”

Cao Zhi frowned, "But the matter of Kong Wenju...how could it have anything to do with etiquette?" 』

Cao Pi sneered twice, "It doesn't matter, but if more people talk about it, it will make people think it has something to do..."

For example, if you write a short essay on a seven-step poem, you read a lot of it, and then many people in later generations think that Cao Pi really did that indescribable thing to Cao Zhi.

After all, even in later generations, there are still a lot of people who can say "put aside the facts" in a grand manner.Or if you say you are a dog lover, you can openly intercept the dog transport vehicle and then stop the dog, even if the dog transport vehicle is legal and compliant.If such a person is not sanctioned by the law, nor is there any punishment, according to this logic, if he is a person who loves beautiful women, um...

"No wonder people have been praising Kong Wenju lately..." Cao Zhi nodded.

Cao Pi said: "Now they want to equate Kong Wenju with orthodoxy and etiquette, and if Kong Wenju is killed, it means that we will violate orthodoxy and etiquette... Do you know what this means?" 』

Cao Zhi thought for a while, and suddenly his face turned pale.

Because in the feudal dynasty, the so-called orthodoxy and etiquette ultimately point to the same place.

In the words of later generations, the law is the embodiment of the will of the ruling class.

Orthodoxy and etiquette are the "laws" of the feudal dynasty.

"Then... don't kill them, just lock them up?" ’ Cao Zhi asked.

Cao Pi gritted his teeth and said, "If we don't kill him, we will be released sooner or later, and the longer the delay, the weaker we are on this matter!"Kong Wenju's reputation will increase, and even if we want to kill him, there will be more problems! 』

Although Cao Pi didn't understand that later generations said "hesitation will lead to defeat", it did not prevent him from knowing the truth. In many cases, it is not the difference between right and wrong, but the difference between strength and weakness.

If Cao Cao's side is strong, the others will naturally be weak. If Cao Cao is weak, the others will of course become strong.

There is no doubt about this.

"Besides, if you really don't kill him, it's not just my father...and even..." Cao Pi looked at Cao Zhi, bared his teeth and roared, "Our three brothers are also unlucky!" 』
