Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 283 Eagle Watching Wolf Gu Sima Yi

After Cao Cao became prime minister, he appointed officials in his prime minister's office.Ren Cuiyan was Xi Caoyu (administrative secretary), Mao Jie was Dong Caoyu (personnel secretary), Sima Lang was the chief secretary (director secretary), Sima Yi was Wenwenwen (education secretary), and Lu Yu (the son of Lu Zhi) He is the history of law Cao Yiling (judicial assistant officer).

The most important person among them is Sima Yi. It is precisely because of this appointment that Sima Yi has entered the stage of history.

It is not the first time for Sima Yi to enter the officialdom. He served as a planner in the sixth year of Jian'an (201).The above calculation is the annual results of officials in various places, how much grain is produced and how much tax is collected.And Shang Jizhen is the official who counts these superiors in the county, so he can be regarded as a statistician!

Sima Yi has been very smart since he was a child, and he has a good reputation. He also has a good relationship with the hermit Hu Zhao.You must know that the hermits in this period are all very capable people, and this Hu Zhao is a person who can be as famous as Sima Hui, Mr. Shui Jing.Hu Zhao, courtesy name Kongming, was from Yingchuan.Everyone knows that Yingchuan was the place with the most talents during the Three Kingdoms period. Xun Yu, Xun You, Guo Jia, Guo Tu, Zhong Yao, Chen Qun, etc., there are at least dozens or even hundreds of them who can be named possible.

Moreover, Hu Zhao was particularly good at calligraphy, and together with Zhong Yao, he was called Zhong Hu.You must know that in the history of calligraphy, the inheritance is like this, from Cai Yong to Zhong Yao to Mrs. Daowei to Wang Xizhi.Zhong Yao's status in the calligraphy world is very high, and he can be regarded as a minor sage, equivalent to Mencius' status in Confucianism.

How big a person's reputation is depends on his own accidents, but also depends on the friends he has made.Just like Xu Shu and the others, because they made friends with Zhuge Liang, they were remembered by many people.Hu Zhao was famous, and Sima Yi became famous far and wide when he made friends with Hu Zhao.

Cao Cao also heard about Sima Yi's reputation at that time, and wanted to recruit him.But Sima Yi thought that the Han Dynasty was in decline, and he didn't want to answer the call, so he shirked that he had Fengbi.Cao Cao sent people to investigate, but Sima Yi lay on the bed without moving, making the people sent by Cao Cao think that he really had Fengbi.

But it can't be hidden for a while. After Cao Cao became prime minister, he forcibly recruited Sima Yi to be a literary minister and let him be with Cao Pi.

Sima Yi looks very strange, he is Gu Zhixiang, who watches the wolf as an eagle.In history, Cao Cao reminded Cao Pi that Sima Yi would not be willing to be subordinated to others, but Cao Pi did not listen.In the end, it proved that Cao Cao's words were correct, and Cao Wei finally died at the hands of Sima.

In fact, for Sima Yi, he really didn't want to be under Cao Cao, but he couldn't escape.With no other choice, Sima Yi could only go on duty.However, Sima Yi is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and he played Cao Hong as soon as he arrived in Yecheng.

After Cao Cao brought Sima Yi to Yecheng, he had not yet given him an official position.Cao Hong came to him first. Cao Hong thought he was a big boss and wanted Sima Yi to help him.But Sima Yi despised Cao Hong and didn't want to serve him, so he pretended to be on crutches.But after Cao Cao appointed him as literary director, he immediately threw away his crutch and went to take up the post.

The change was fast, and it was very shameless, very much like Cao Cao's back then.

Cao Cao just became the prime minister, and he faced another thing, that is, there was another trouble in Xiliang.

Although Cao Cao has taken down the Sili Captain's Department, he doesn't have much control over Liangzhou. It is all relying on the diplomatic negotiations of Zhang Ji and others to keep Chang'an and other places safe.However, Liangzhou and other places have always been under the control of Han Sui, Ma Teng and others, and Zhang Ji has been dealing with them all the time, relying on the name of the Han Dynasty.

However, there has always been a fight between Han Sui and Ma Teng. The two had a conflict more than ten years ago. At that time, Ma Chao, who was still underage, was almost killed by Han Sui's son-in-law Yan Xing.The fight between the two has continued over the years. Han Sui killed Ma Teng's wife. The hatred was too great.The two have been fighting for many years, and it can be said that they are very close!
Cao Cao did not want unrest in Liangzhou. You must know that Han Sui and Ma Teng were both nominal ministers of the Han Dynasty, and both sent their sons as hostages in Xudu.Moreover, both of them had very high official positions. Ma Teng was the general who conquered the south, and Han Sui was the general who conquered the west. They were both represented by Cao Cao.Moreover, these two people have always been Cao Cao's thugs before. They helped Cao Cao defeat Guo Yuan, the Southern Xiongnu, and also defeated Gao Gan and Wei Gu.It can be said that Cao Cao has been using the troops of these two people to stabilize Guanzhong, and of course he will not allow the two to fight.

So Cao Cao sent Zhong Yao and Wei Duan to persuade him to make peace, took Ma Teng as the former general, changed the Tun Huaili, fake festival, and made Huaili Marquis.There is a problem here. Most people have the impression that Zhengzhen Anping is lower, but this was not the case at the end of the Han Dynasty. The Sifang Generals were one level higher than the Sizheng Generals.

Zhang Ji came to persuade Ma Teng to give up the army and go to Xuchang as an official.Due to the situation, Ma Teng agreed.After he arrived in Yecheng, Cao Cao represented him as a Weiwei and named Ma Chao a partial general to lead the army instead of Ma Teng.Cao Cao thought that he could completely control Ma Teng's army in this way, but he never thought that it was precisely because of this that the biggest change in Liangzhou was caused and the foreshadowing of future wars was laid.

After Ma Teng entered the court, Cao Cao thought that there was nothing wrong with Liangzhou, so he appointed Zhong Yao as the captain of Sili to command the entire department of the captain of Sili.He also appointed Wei Duan as the governor of Liangzhou. He wanted to gradually take control of Liangzhou and turn Liangzhou into his own territory, instead of listening to the announcement and not listening to the tune as he is now.

When the external affairs were almost settled, Cao Cao began to clean up the internal affairs.There are many people in the court who are right with Cao Cao, but the strongest one is Kong Rong.Kong Rong is a famous person in the world, and he is upright. When he sees someone he doesn't like, he will go straight to him.Before Cao Cao captured Yecheng, slaughtered many people, and plundered many Yuan's women, he was ridiculed by Kong Rong.

This time Cao Cao made an expedition to Wuhuan, and Kong Rong satirized him again.And he kept telling Cao Cao not to ban alcohol, and his words were very arrogant.He also stated that according to the system of the ancient capital, feudal princes are not allowed within a thousand miles, that is to say, all the people who were sealed as princes should not stay in the capital, including Cao Cao and those important subordinates under Cao Cao.

Cao Cao was afraid that Kong Rong would become more and more presumptuous, so he wanted to get rid of him.Xi Ji, a native of Shanyang, noticed Cao Cao's thoughts, and he had a personal grievance with Kong Rong, so he constructed a crime and ordered the prime minister's army to conspire to offer sacrifices to wine roads, framing Kong Rong as "recruiting the disciples", Kong Rong was framed and killed for crimes such as "desire to misbehave", "slander the court", and "disobey the super rituals".

Internal and external troubles were eradicated, and Cao Cao was now ready to prepare his armaments and prepare for the Southern Expedition.
