After returning from the early dynasty, Cao Chong quickly went to the main palace of the outer mansion to deal with official business.
Cao Chong's official duties are mainly divided into three aspects.
The first aspect is the matter of Luoyang Shiyi, Luoyang is within the boundaries of Sizhou {Sili}, not Cao Cao's fief, and it stands to reason that the princes generally do not ask about the administration of the fief.
But Cao Chong had a large group of scholars who had come over, and it was really unreasonable not to arrange some work for them, and with Cao Cao's acquiescence, Cao Chong threw those scholars into Luoyang.
The reason why Cao Chong wanted to throw these people to Luoyang was that in addition to letting them have something to do, even if he wanted to form his own group.
After all, the official positions that Cao Chongluo's Yanghou Mansion can provide are limited, and there are not many opportunities for promotion in Luoyang Houfu.
In this place, except for his own wisdom group, Cao Chong will not arrange people here.
Luoyang belongs to the place, as long as you work there for a few years, after you come out, you will be a qualified person, and when Cao Chong is in operation, it is more than enough for them to be a seven-grade official similar to Literary Peng, Taichang Peng, and Cao Peng.
After all, Cao Chong is young, and most of the people who are now officials in the court are in a neutral position, while other officials who are not neutral have long belonged.
Although Cao Chong has a lot of popularity in the army, his power in the court is a blank sheet of paper compared to Cao Pi.
In fact, not to mention that it is compared with Cao Pi, but compared with Cao Zhi, Cao Zhi's forces above the court have thrown off his eighteen streets.
Cao Chong has the power to get his hands on the court, there are only two people, the civil official is Xin Bi, who is the official position in the service, and the official position in the service is not small, but the people around Xin Bi are actually Cao Pi's people, although he is a servant, but there is no difference from an idle position.
I can't even issue a decree, so I can't be regarded as a servant Among the generals, Cao Chong has only one Zhang Liao who is really standing behind Cao Chong, but Zhang Liao is a general after all, plus he is a general, and he is not a relative of the Cao family, so he can't fight for Cao Chong to have much right to speak.
Therefore, Cao Chong is really weak above the court, if it weren't for Cheng Yu, Xun You and others taking care of Cao Chong, if not, Cao Chong's situation in the court would be even worse.
Cao Pi and Cao Zhi's team forces were established for more than ten years, while Cao Chong's forces were established for only three years, and the two are not the same.
Because of this, Cao Chong wants to cultivate cronies, and it is obvious that Luoyang is a good place to practice.
Like Guo Xiao, Lu Song, Lu Xun and others, they were all thrown into Luoyang by Cao Chong, and it took two or three years to calculate the time.
In two or three years, as long as there are some political achievements, Cao Chong is sure to let them sit in a position that is not low.
Because Situ at this time is Hua Xin, and Hua Xin is a minister in a neutral position at this time.
Hua Xin didn't want to be attached to Cao Pi Cao Zhi or Cao Chong, naturally, if the people provided by Cao Chong were not problematic and had enough qualifications, he wouldn't mind arranging these people in the positions that Cao Chong wanted to arrange according to the regulations.
This is Cao Chong's first aspect of government affairs, and the second aspect of things is naturally trivial things in the house, as well as banquets, although these things are cumbersome and seem to be useless, but Cao Chong can't avoid them.
It is useless, just superficial, in fact, this aspect of things is extremely important to Cao Chong.
The banquet and amusement not only allowed Cao Chong to enjoy his leisure time, but the most important point was that it washed a lot of prestige for Cao Chong.
Like those fame, prestige has always been blown by business.
Of course, participating in various banquets not only made Cao Chong gain prestige, but also made Cao Chong know many people.
Dignitaries, celebrity hermits, peddlers and pawns The people who can invite Cao Chong to the banquet are rarely people from Cao Pi or Cao Zhi's faction, and knowing these people, although they can't bring any benefits to Cao Chong in the short term, but in the long run, it has unusual significance.
Moreover, the current Cao Chong is also in urgent need of manpower.
The third aspect of work is a bit secretive, and Cao Chong generally looks at it later.
That's all aspects of Yecheng's intelligence.
After Cao Chong attacked Jiangdong, he made a lot of war money, plus the Xin family's wine business, as well as his own income from the food in Luoyang, Cao Chong can now say that he is one of the richest men in Yecheng.
Of course, Cao Chong, who was so rich, naturally didn't put them in the warehouse to rot, and Cao Chong spent them on the blade.
Among them, a large sum of money was given to Bao.
Although Bao Chu is a ranger of Xu Du, he also has a lot of prestige in Yecheng, plus the money given to him by Cao Chong, he cleaned up the entire underground world of Yecheng in a short time.
After having the foundation of Bao, Cao Chong combined with the model of Jinyiwei in later generations, and included a lot of rangers and gangsters in the market, specifically for them to collect intelligence, of course, those people included by Cao Chong are not only the gangsters in the market, but even the stewards and servants of various mansions.
Cao Chong has put a lot of effort into this matter, so the information he received is relatively correct.
Wars always begin in intelligence warfare, and the battle for succession is no exception.
And Cao Chong is to suppress Cao Zhi and Cao Pi in terms of intelligence.
Cao Chong named the organization that did the underground work Tsing Yi Lou, and the people inside were called Tsing Yi Wei.
Tsing Yiwei would send information to Cao Chong every day, and today was no exception.
Cao Chong looked at yesterday's information, but his brows couldn't help frowning.
This Zhuge Liang actually went to Sima Yi to drink Cao Chong shook his head with a headache, since Liu Bei was executed, Zhuge Liang has fallen into a life of dogs and horses, Cao Chong doesn't know if he is pretending, or really crazy because of excessive sadness.
In short, he likes to play how he wants, and Cao Chong can still afford to raise a person.
If he can do things for himself with all his might, it is naturally an excellent thing, and if he can't, Cao Chong will not force it.
Of course, if Zhuge Liang was on the enemy's side, Cao Chong would never be merciful.
In the past three years, Cao Chong's hands have been stained with enough blood, not less than Zhuge Liang's blood.

When Cao Chong handled today's intelligence and government affairs, the golden crow soared, and it was already on the top of Cao Chong's head.
Fortunately, it is spring, after the snow melts, everything recovers, and such a fierce sun shines in, not only does it make Cao Chong feel hot, but it is a little warm.
Just when Cao Chong was thinking about how to arrange today's itinerary, a slightly neutral and harsh voice had already come in.
"The prince, the king invites you to go to Dutingchi, the king wants to see the prince."
Cao Chong looked up, and saw a thirty-four-year-old man, he had no beard on his face, his Adam's apple was not particularly prominent, he was wearing the clothes of a black palace slave, and his face was decorated with an unusually bright smile.
Cao Chong glanced at him, and a smile appeared on his face.
This person is Liu Yong, who is now the middle attendant of the Wei Palace, responsible for Cao Cao's daily life, and is an important figure around Cao Cao.
It's just that Cao Cao learned the lesson of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and was very strict with these eunuchs, such as collusion with outsiders: if he found that the eunuchs had anything to do with the outside, he would be executed immediately, without mercy.
Such a disabled and powerless eunuch naturally does not have much status in Yecheng.
Others may look down on such a person, but Cao Chong does not look down on such a person, since he is the person next to Cao Cao, it is of great use value to himself.
Even if it's just a few good words for himself in front of Cao Cao every day, that's enough.
Cao Chong took out a brocade bag from the dark compartment, which was full of broken gold, and Cao Chong threw the brocade bag in front of Liu Yong.
Liu Yong was vigorous and grabbed the money bag, obviously, it was not the first time he had done this.
"Thank you, the prince" Looking at Liu Yong's flattering appearance, Cao Chong got up and asked, "My father asked me to go to Dutingchi, what is the matter?"
If it were an ordinary person, Liu Yong would naturally not tell Cao Cao's purpose, but Cao Chong is not an ordinary person, just because he gives a bag of gold lumps every time, Liu Yong will also tell the matter.
"The king seems to be looking for the strategy of the prince's northern expedition" The strategy of the Northern Expedition Cao Chong was stunned for a moment, and his eyes rolled.
But his thoughts came alive
