Chapter 261 Cao Pi Succession
Cao Pi looked at Cao Zhi and shook his head in disappointment again, "Father has a good name, so I don't intend to let Liu Xie give way to Father, but give it to me directly. If people in the world want to scold, they will scold me too!"

"What do you have to do with the father? I am the Cao family, and I am willing to risk the displeasure of the world. Can you?"

After Cao Zhi listened, he sat down on the ground in a daze. At this moment, Sima Yi came to Cao Pi's side.

"Son, Mrs. Bian is here."

Cao Pi frowned: "How did mother find this place? Who leaked the news?"

Of course Sima Yi would not say that he told Mrs. Bian, because he didn't want Cao Zhi to die, and Cao Zhi was still valuable.

I can't die at this time.

So Sima Yi secretly informed Mrs. Bian.

Mrs. Bian hurried to the cell with her maid and guards, saw Cao Pi imprisoning Cao Zhi, and hurriedly explained to Cao Zhi.

Cao Pi said helplessly, "I just want to teach him a lesson, and I won't harm him."

Then, he fooled Mrs. Bian back, but he didn't intend to just let Cao Zhi go.

Turning to look at Cao Zhi, he said, "Don't say I won't give you a chance. Since you are so talented, I will test you to see if you have wasted your time all these years."

"You go seven steps to the west. If you write a poem within seven steps, I will let you go. If you can't, my Cao family can't leave an ignorant waste to cause trouble for brothers and sisters at home!"

Cao Zhi was sad, and slowly stood up in the cell, writing poems.

After Cao Pi heard it, he was moved, but he still didn't intend to let Cao Zhi go.

Sima Yi cupped his hands and asked, "My lord, I have something to say, do you know if I should say it or not?"

Sima Yi behaved a lot first, he knew that Cao Pi didn't like him interrupting, so he became cautious.

Sure enough, Cao Pi's attitude towards Sima Yi was much better: "What's Zhongda's plan?"

Sima Yi said: "The son's success is imminent, and it's not easy for brothers to kill each other. It's better to seal the third son elsewhere. It's pure if you don't see it."

When Cao Pi heard this, he thought it was a good idea, so he made Cao Zhi the Marquis of Linzi and sent him out.

The next day, in the main hall of the imperial palace, all civil and military officials went to the hall.

Liu Xie tremblingly came to sit on the throne, Hua Xin immediately stepped forward and asked Liu Xie to abdicate.

"Your Majesty, how is the matter of abdicating?"

Liu Xie couldn't help feeling sad, and said in a crying voice: "My dear friends, please discuss the matter of abdication according to the ancestral system, okay?"

Hua Xin and the others got impatient and said, "No, I have to make it clear today!"

Liu Xie cried and returned to the harem, Hua Xin stepped forward and grabbed Liu Xie's dragon robe, a pair of cloudy eyes shone fiercely.

Liu Xie was so frightened that he cried loudly.

Hua Xin's old face was full of dimples, with a terrifying murderous look.

At this moment, Cao Pi's armored soldiers, led by Cao Xiu, entered the hall one after another.

Hua Xin was like an old ghost demanding his life, and shouted sharply: "Will you abdicate, tell me quickly!"

A group of vicious ministers came up to surround Liu Xie and shouted sharply: "Abdicate or not, tell me quickly!"

Liu Xie only felt a warm current spreading from between his legs, "I'll retreat"

"His Majesty!"

Empress Cao rushed to Liu Xie's side with her court lady to protect Liu Xie.

Liu Xie's throne is her capital, and she doesn't want to lose this capital.

Seeing Empress Cao coming, Liu Xie cried out, "Queen, save me, save me, queen!"

Empress Cao was also furious and stood upright in front of Cao Xiu.

Cao Xiu said helplessly, "Queen, please step aside."

Not only did Empress Cao refuse to let her go, but she yelled at Cao Pi for treason.

He also said that he would let Cao Cao come back to make a decision.

However, looking at the officials who looked like evil ghosts, Liu Xiebei came from it, and suddenly felt that his throne would not last long.

If it goes on like this, I'm afraid I won't even be able to save my life.

Liu Xie pulled Empress Cao's sleeve and said, "Queen, forget it, I will give up the throne immediately."

"The Minister Chen Qun drafted an edict to announce to the world that I want the throne of Zen for the prince of Wei."

Hua Xin and the others saw that Liu Xie had followed, so they let go of his dragon robe.

Shangshu Chen Qun stepped forward and drafted the edict for the throne of Zen according to Liu Xie's dictation.

Only then did Liu Xie escape from the threat of these evil spirits, and returned to the harem with Empress Cao.

In the study room was the manuscript he was going to send to Yuedan for review. Empress Cao cried and said: "Your Majesty has given up the throne, and we will have nothing to do."

Liu Xie looked at his manuscript, but smiled in relief: "Queen, don't be sad. From now on, as long as I am alive, I can write manuscripts and support my family. I will definitely not go hungry."

After hearing this, Empress Cao cried even more sadly.

Cao Pi, who was sitting in the prime minister's mansion, had more serious eyes, which is the aura of the superior.

Thinking back when Dong Zhuo usurped the Han Dynasty, he was so carried away that he was too excited to say he was in a hurry, but Cao Pi was very calm and sober.

On the one hand, he lived in seclusion to prevent someone from being assassinated; on the other hand, he soberly adopted Sima Yi's suggestion.

Hypocritically submitted a letter to decline, Liu Xie issued an edict to reject it.

After repeating this three times, Cao Pi reluctantly agreed to accept the throne.

Jia Xu and Hua Xin also suggested to Cao Pi to ask Liu Xie to order the construction of an abdication platform, and then explain to the world on the abdication platform why Cao Pi should abdicate.

In this way, it is not Cao Pi who is rushing him to snatch the throne, but Liu Xie is going to give him the throne on his own initiative.

He had to accept it.

Just like Liu Beisan gave up Xuzhou and Jingzhou, although people with discerning eyes can see it, this is just a hypocrisy.

However, from the procedural point of view, the speech of the people of the world is blocked, and this method is not only used by Liu Bei.

Cao Pi is also proficient in using it.

Sima Yi did not think what he had expected, and immediately entered the center of Cao Pi's staff.

Instead, Cao Pi reused Hua Xin, Jia Xu, Li Fu, and even Sima Hui of Shuijing Villa as ministers.

The big man who has lasted for more than 400 years will be officially replaced by Liu Xie when the wind and rain are precarious.

And Guan Yu in Jingzhou also suffered heavy losses after repeated hard battles, and had to lose to Maicheng.

Lu Meng continued to nibble away at Jingzhou's small cities and used them to surround them.

Then use all kinds of tactics, poisoning, assassination, everything, in order to disintegrate Guan Yu's military spirit.

However, he just didn't come out to fight Guan Yu head-on.

On this day, the injured Guan Suo came back to report that Jingzhou had been completely lost.

Guan Yu was so angry that he passed out again. After waking up, he sent Liao Hua to the police to ask Meng Da, who had just returned from Hanzhong, for help.

Liao Hua wept bitterly, told about his plight, and asked Meng Da to send troops to rescue him.

However, Meng Da refused to rush to the aid of Guan Yu on the grounds that our army was newly defeated and could not spare any manpower.

Seeing that it was useless to cry and complain, Liao Hua left the public security city and went to Chengdu to beg Zhuge Liang.

Seeing that Guan Yu was in desperation, Sun Quan asked Zhuge Jin to persuade Guan Yu to surrender.

Zhuge Jin was widely praised for his generosity and generosity in both the Sun and Liu families.

Zhuge Jin received Guan Yu's interview with his usual generous character, and Guan Yu did not deliberately conceal the situation in the camp.

Seeing Guan Yu's numerous injuries and illnesses in the camp, he looked miserable.

Zhuge Jin sighed, and said to Guan Yu: "The general is so talented, why must he go to the end of the mountain?"
