Chapter 62 The Song of Wine
"Congratulations to everyone who won the bicycle, and congratulations to Cao Cao, who ranked first this time. Cao Cao can ask a question."

Liu Bei: I don't even need to think about it, it must be a beauty.

Li Shimin: I don't think that such an important question should be asked of the general.

Qin Shihuang: I have never heard Ms. Zhang talk about Cao Cao's survival, maybe I can ask this question.

Cao Cao: That’s true. I just want to ask Ms. Zhang, what the world thinks of me, and whether I, Cao Cao, have ever been unified. How about future generations?How many years to keep the national foundation.

……

"Cao Cao, courtesy name Mengde, auspicious name, small character Aman, native of Peiguo, Han nationality. An outstanding statesman, military strategist, writer, and calligrapher in the late Eastern Han Dynasty."

"Excellent in military skills and good at poetry, he expressed his political ambitions and reflected the suffering life of the people in the late Han Dynasty. He was majestic, generous and sad; his prose was also clear and neat, which opened up and prospered the Jian'an style."

"The Xuefu style of poetry written by him is even printed on the books we are educated in, and we will learn it when we go to school."

Qin Shihuang: It can appear in the educational books of later generations, admiration!
Li Bai: Singing to wine, how much life is there!like!
Du Mu: As an old man, he has ambitions for thousands of miles. In his old age, a martyr has great ambitions.

Du Fu: Fortunately, it is even true, singing to sing about ambition.This is to express one's ambition with poetry!

Liu Che: I didn't expect Cao Cao to be so powerful.

Qianlong: I am not bad either.

"Cao Cao is not inferior to some poets at all in terms of poetry. He can govern the country and lead troops to fight. Even calligraphy and poetry are not weaker than others. His "Guan Canghai", "Gui Shishou", "Dan Ge Xing ", etc., are widely circulated."

"Speaking of Cao Cao, how can we not talk about the Three Kingdoms?"

"At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms were divided. During this period, three regimes coexisted, namely Cao Wei, Shu Han, and Sun Wu. Within a certain period of time, the strength of the three parties was balanced, and no one could destroy the other. Because Cao Cao never proclaimed himself emperor in his life, Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor in the later period. , and it became a situation where the three kingdoms stood in harmony."

"However, in the later period, most of us call it the "Three Kingdoms" and the "Shu Wei" period."

Yuan Shao: Why not me?

Sun Quan: Call us Shu and Wei, where will we put my country of Wu?

"Because the foundation of the founding of the country is different, the favorability is different. The founding kings of Wei and Shu were Cao Cao and Liu Bei. Both of them were people who personally conquered the world. In the process, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao, wiped out Lu Bu, and unified In the north, this achievement was unparalleled at the time."

"And Liu Bei was a grassroots man who started from scratch. After going through countless hardships, he finally established his own regime in Shu. During this period, he dealt with his most powerful opponent, Cao Cao. Even Cao Cao thought he was the most difficult person to deal with. In addition, His purpose was to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, so he could easily gain people's support. But Sun Quan inherited his father's and brother's inheritance, and it took no effort to get it, so he naturally won't be favored by people."

Sun Quan: It is still wrong for my son to inherit his father's business...

"Even if you almost have a good impression, the world will remember you as one of the Three Kingdoms."

"From the troubled times at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms, we have to start with Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty."

"The Eastern Han Dynasty developed rapidly in the early and middle period, but in the later period, due to the poor management of some emperors, the development was slow, and even the development of the Eastern Han Dynasty gradually declined. The period of Emperor Hanling was an important turning point in the decline of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Because Emperor Hanling trusted the eunuchs, the eunuchs were powerful. The emptiness of the treasury further accelerated the decline of the Eastern Han Dynasty."

"Among them, at the end of the Han Ling Emperor, because he could not make a will in time, the successor to the Eastern Han Dynasty could not be determined, which led to continuous internal disputes in the Eastern Han Dynasty, which greatly consumed the strength of the Eastern Han Dynasty and led to the further decline of the Eastern Han Dynasty. So should the Han Ling Emperor be concerned about the decline of the Eastern Han Dynasty? Responsible? I don’t think the decline of the Eastern Han Dynasty is all the responsibility of Han Lingdi.”

"Perhaps Han Lingdi himself didn't expect his health to turn bad. Although Han Lingdi was ill and seldom went to court in the later period, Han Lingdi didn't expect that he would die suddenly, so Han Lingdi didn't have time to stay Will. If Emperor Hanling's physical condition did not change suddenly, then Emperor Lingling of Han would have time to leave a candidate for the throne, at least there would be no fighting among the Han Dynasty."

"It was precisely because Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty did not leave any edict that the emperor divided into two factions, leading to internal chaos. Some people also speculated that perhaps the edict of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty had been established long ago. We all know that any emperor who reigns The emperor would always write and hide the successor's will, because the emperor did not know whether unexpected situations would occur. Therefore, the emperors of all dynasties would write the successor's will in advance to determine the successor, and it is not known to whom the will will be handed over. Anyway, It’s because the last edict didn’t appear.”

"After the death of the Han Ling Emperor, both the queen and the ministers will definitely look for the edict, but in the end they did not find the edict of the Han Ling Emperor. This shows that there are two possibilities, either it was not established, or the eunuchs hid the edict and did not want the ministers to know I am more inclined to the second type of heir that Emperor Hanling wants to establish, and maybe you can be confirmed in the following words."

"Although Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty did not leave an edict to identify his successor, under normal circumstances the eldest prince would definitely succeed him. This is also the practice used by royal families in the past. Therefore, it is legitimate for Liu Bian to become emperor, and no one will question it. But the eunuchs insisted that King Chenliu be on the throne, the reason is the order sent by Emperor Han Ling when he was dying."

Qin Shihuang: This is learning from Zhao Gao!Perhaps it was a mistake to hand over the edict to the eunuch.

Liu Che: Don't forget Shihuang, even the ministers you trust betrayed you, who do you think should be handed over to this edict.

"Because Liu Bian is Empress He's son, once he takes power, he will definitely stand in Empress He's camp. This is the result that the eunuchs don't want to see."

"Empress He always wanted to weaken the eunuchs, so the eunuchs wanted to support King Chen Liu to continue to hold on to his power. The reason why he believed that the eunuchs hid the edict was because in the end, the only ones who accompanied Emperor Han Ling were the eunuchs. If Han Ling When the emperor issued a will, he would definitely tell the eunuchs the specific location, so it is likely that the eunuchs hid the edict in order to gain control of it."

"Under normal circumstances, even if the eunuchs support Liu Xie, it will have no effect, because since Empress He and the ministers have confirmed that Liu Bian will be promoted, the eunuchs have no ability to refute. But the eunuchs have been developing their strength, and they have been able to compete with Empress He. There is no way to let Liu Bian sit on the throne."

"If the eunuchs were not particularly powerful, or if the eunuchs did not insist on Liu Xie succeeding as emperor, the Han Dynasty would not have fallen into chaos. Although the eunuchs insisted on supporting Liu Xie for their own interests, it is also the minister's fault. They failed to weaken the eunuchs in time, resulting in no way to suppress the eunuchs."
