Cao Cao sat upright on the main seat, and below him, he was already kneeling down.
At first, Xia Hou was the only one who knelt down, but as Xia Hou knelt down and asked for his life, more and more people also knelt down.
Looking around, all the people below were kneeling.
The black pressure is oppressive, and the scene is quite spectacular.
Such a scene made Cao Chong can't help but think of four words.
Yellow robe Zhao Kuangyin was conspired by his younger brother Zhao Kuangyi and Zhao Pu to be robed by the yellow robe, and Zhao Kuangyin had to rebel against the Zhou Dynasty and establish himself as emperor.
And at this moment, Cao Cao is guarded by the ministers and relatives, how similar is it to Zhao Kuangyin in the yellow robe of later generations.
Cao Chong and Cao Pi glanced at each other, and the two of them were like two spikes in the main hall, which was particularly obvious.
Neither of them knelt down to ask for their lives.
It's not that the two don't want Cao Cao to be the emperor, if Cao Cao is the emperor, Cao Chong's Luoyang Marquis may become the king of Luoyang, and Cao Pi's Chang'an Marquis may become the king of Chang'an.
For the two of them, Cao Cao is the emperor, which is naturally good for them.
But what is good for the two of them does not mean that it is good for Boss Cao, and it does not mean that it is good for Wei State.
It is true that in the first war at the beginning of the year, the pro-Han forces were close to annihilation, and up and down Kyushu, those families, those so-called Han ministers, even if they still had the Han family in their hearts, did not dare to resist.
Coming out to resist at this time is no different from suicide There is no difference at all Therefore, it stands to reason that even if Cao Cao ascends to Dabao, he will not be opposed to Shao.
Even if there were, then the resistance was very weak, and Cao Cao could basically turn it into ashes without much effort.
But if no one else stops it, it doesn't mean that this matter is good for Cao Cao.
First of all, although Cao Cao is now the king of Wei, not the emperor, he is full of imperial specifications in every gesture, saying that he is not the emperor, but in the land of Kyushu, whose power can be greater than his No one Boss Cao is now the most powerful man in the land of Kyushu.
In this way, even if Cao Cao became the emperor, what he got was just a false name, and he couldn't get real benefits.
On the contrary, there are still some losses.
The so-called loss is that after Cao Cao ascended to the throne, he must be rewarded for his merits, and he will also have to give amnesty to the world.
That's a huge loss.
Like Cao Chong and Cao Pi, as well as many of his sons, they may be crowned kings by themselves, and those clan relatives naturally want to shout about this.
If they don't give it to them, then they follow their own birth and death, and their kindness Boss Cao doesn't live up to it But if you give them an official title, or even give them a king, then what will be the result?
Now they are all happy, but what about their successors Will they later become the restrictive successors of themselves?
There are so many disadvantages of inheriting the throne, Cao Chong feels that Cao Cao will probably not agree.
He is a Han minister, if he becomes an emperor, he will become a rebellious minister, and his descendants usurp the throne, and the evaluation in history is another story.
What's more, if Boss Cao doesn't choose to take the throne at this time, he can also let the latecomers quickly establish their own majesty.
The reason why Cao Pi was able to lead the Wei State in later generations was impregnable, and also launched several wars to conquer Wu, in addition to his use of the Nine Grades of Official Law to get the support of the family, more because Cao Pi was the first emperor.
The first emperor, opening up a dynasty, itself contains majesty.
If Cao Cao is now the emperor, then Cao Chong or Cao Pi will become the emperor, and he will only be a successor, and if he wants to establish authority, he will have to go through a struggle like Cao Rui.
Cao Chong and Cao Pi glanced at each other, the two of them did not make any other movements, and sat on them as if they were pondering some philosophical questions.
The two of them were waiting for Cao Cao's answer, while Xiahou and the others were also waiting for Cao Cao's answer.
It didn't take long for Cao Cao, who was sitting on the main seat, to cough twice, he glanced at Cao Chong and Cao Pi, and then fixed his gaze on the rows of people kneeling under His Highness.
"Gentlemen, be cautious, I don't want to hear about this matter a second time."
Hearing Cao Cao's words, Cao Chong did not relax his vigilance in his heart.
His Royal Highness's Xiahou and the others did not get up because of Boss Cao's words.
For example, in ancient times, as long as it was not directly overthrown by violence, there was probably a procedure.
For example, in later generations, Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty, and they all required a program.
Judging from the records in the history books, the relationship between Cao Pi and Liu Xie was quite "harmonious".
It can be said that all the statements about Cao Pi bullying Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty are "brain supplements".
For example, Cao Pi didn't "want" to be the emperor at all, but Liu Xie felt that Han Zuo was coming to an end and the Cao family had great merits, so he was ready to give up the throne to Cao Pi and asked his imperial historian Zhang Yin to send the jade seal to Cao Pi.
When Cao Pi saw this posture, he refused again and again, and resolutely did not dare to accept the jade seal.
The ministers below persuaded and persuaded again, and after saying all the good things, Cao Pi still said righteously: My virtue is far worse than that of Shun and Yu, and I really dare not accept Zen.
When Liu Xie heard this, he issued another edict, saying: Countless miracles have proved that my Han has been abandoned by God.
So I gave way to you, it was in accordance with the mandate of heaven, the mandate of heaven, you know, you must not disobey it casually After Cao Pi received the order, he sighed "depressedly": "He Jiji is in Sihu" The sky, the earth, why are you forcing me so much, it seems that I have to resign and go into hiding, so as to escape this kind of "persecution".

When Liu Xie heard this, he was rejected again, and hurriedly issued another edict, saying: King Wei, do you know what it means to "become a big thing and be informal" You see that Yao Chan gave it to Shun, has Shun postponed, why can't you learn from the sage I asked Zhang Yin to take the jade seal again, you must not postpone it again As a result, Cao Pi still did not give in, saying: I really can't compare with Shun and Yu, when they accepted the Zen concession, the credit was greatly dropped, and I didn't do anything now, how embarrassed to be the emperor When the ministers heard this, they all said, what does it mean that you have no credit after becoming the king of Wei, you are wise and martial, love the people like sons, have clear politics, and the people live in peace.
My Great Wei is thriving, and all kinds of miracles are emerging one after another, isn't this your credit?
Finally, Cao Pi "reasoned and said poorly", and said: Okay, "The mandate of heaven cannot be refused, and the people's expectations cannot be violated" Liu Xie immediately struck while the iron was hot, and issued an edict: King Wei, this is right, I am dedicated to learning the great Emperor Yao, but I am always deflated here in you, which makes me very embarrassed, and now I will let the servant of the Shangshu Decree inform you, hurry up and succeed to the throne, and fulfill my wish In the end, Cao Pi finally ascended to the throne "reluctantly", and greatly admired Liu Xie.
He was named the Duke of Shanyang, with 10,000 households.
Worship the heavens with the gift of the Son of Heaven, and there is no need to be called a minister in the book.
Although this operation is hypocritical, it is something that has to be done to change the dynasty.
Only when this hypocritical superficial work is made can the change of dynasties have a name, and they can be said to be orthodox.
And only when the roots are correct, there will be no frequent rebellion in the later period.
So Xiahou knelt on the ground and kowtowed again, the sound of kowtowing was very loud, and Xiahou's voice was even louder.
"I beg the king to inherit the throne, otherwise, if the minister says such a thing, An can stay in the world, and if the king does not agree, the minister will knock to death in the temple."
As soon as Xia Hou finished speaking, he was immediately startled by waves of ripples below.
"If the king does not agree, I will knock to death in the temple."
Cao Cao frowned, but his voice seemed to be sighing.
"Everyone, why is this so?"
Didn't refuse Xia Hou immediately had his spirits, and Cao Chong and Cao Pi's faces were mostly shocked.
Cao Cao didn't refuse Does the father really want to ascend to the throne?
Has the historical mainstream changed since then:
