Nine hundred and ninety-seven, the Cao family cannot be defined as a threat by Guo Peng

What Cheng Yu said sounded like a terrible death talisman to Cao Cao.

What a joke? If Cao Cao really had such ideas and actions, once Guo Peng knew about it, should the Cao family still carry forward it?

Many children of the Cao family followed Guo Peng for decades, fighting to the death with their lives, in order to make the family prosperous, but they were implicated by the scandal of "rebellion".

This is absolutely impossible!

Cheng Yu knew that this matter could not be used as a joke.

Among the many members of the Cao family, Cao Ren, Cao Xiu, Cao Hong and Cao Chun, all served in the army and led troops outside, and were all people with military power.

Although after the army was reorganized, the generals basically had no military power, they still had prestige, and the court would not be less afraid of the generals who should have.

Guo Peng is the emperor of the horse, and his prestige is enough to prevent anyone from moving around.

But his son may not have.

The Wei army listened to Guo Peng. As long as Guo Peng was alive, the prestige of any general in the army would be backwards, so no one could shake his status.

But what if he dies?

After he died, does Guo Jin have the prestige that can surpass the generals in the army and convince the army?

Will the generals in the military continue to be convinced?

The military system and rotational garrison system of the Wei army were themselves intended to curb the spread of the private forces of the generals in the army and ensure the emperor's control over the army. This system operates well under Guo Peng's rule. Can Guo Jin inherit it and continue to operate?

There are too many unpredictable things.

Guo Peng could not have known this, so for the stable inheritance of imperial power and the smooth inheritance of military power, before Guo Peng expected that his deadline would be approaching, any existence that might threaten Guo Jin would be wiped out by Guo Peng.

Therefore, Cao Cao deeply understood that the Cao family could not be defined as a threat by Guo Peng, otherwise the senior officials and nobles of the Cao family would not be able to live longer than Guo Peng.

Even if Cao Lan is the queen, even if Guo Jin has the bloodline of Cao, it usually seems that this is the reason why Cao Mengde is undefeated in the golden body, but in special circumstances, this will become a death-induced talisman.

Cao Cao knew clearly that the Cao family had advantages in this aspect, but the advantages in this aspect were precisely the biggest life span of the Cao family.

And in various senses, Cao's family has great motivations in this regard.

To think about it using conspiracy theory, the Crown Prince Guo Jin has the blood of the Cao family. After Guo Jin ascended the throne, he will definitely reuse the Cao family. If the Cao family wants to go to a higher level, supporting Guo Jin is the best way.

But all this must be based on Guo Jin's successful ascension to the throne. Before that, as long as Guo Peng was still sitting on the throne for a day, nothing could change.

Otherwise, Cao Cao would be more than the only one who would be unlucky.

That's why Cao Cao was very rational and had little contact with the Cao and Xiahou generals who were commanding troops outside, and never participated in any military-related matters unless Guo Peng ordered him to participate.

In order to ensure the safety of the Cao family, Cao Cao did this, which shows how much Cao Cao cares about this kind of thing. As a result, the meaning in Cheng Yu's words made Cao Cao sweat.

Seeing Cao Cao's cold sweat, Cheng Yu realized that he could not talk nonsense about such things, so he shook his head.

"Meng De, I didn't let you do this. I want you to know that if you have such an advantage, even if you don't use it, others will be afraid of you, and there will be people who will curry favor with you. You have to make full use of your power. Now Tian Yuanhao isn't the meaning of winning over Qiao Rui? "

Cao Cao knew what Cheng Yu meant, and Cheng Yu thought that Tian Feng did this to target him Cao Mengde himself.

Cao Mengde has the power to audit economic issues, and in a sense he has great lethality to the major departments of Shangshutai, which are responsible for using public funds to do business.

The Censorate is specifically responsible for impeaching illegal officials, which also has a huge deterrent effect on the Shangshutai.

The national system designed by Guo Peng makes the Shangshutai at the bottom of the food chain in all senses. It's pitiful. Although he has the greatest power, both the cabinet and the Censorate can easily pinch it.

If the power of the Shangshutai wants to use power smoothly, it cannot avoid dealing with the cabinet and the Censorate.

If you have any relationship in the cabinet or the Secretariat, it would be best.

Although it is very difficult, it is not impossible. Guo Peng did not explicitly prohibit it. Since the emperor did not prohibit it, it means that it is OK.

Obviously, Cheng Yu found a relationship named Cao Cao, and Tian Feng followed closely behind to find a relationship with the Censorate.

And if you have to say something, the Censorate may have a greater deterrence to the Shangshutai.

Cao Cao could only attack officials on economic issues. He had no law enforcement power and could not directly attack them. However, the Censorate could impeach officials on various issues.

Even if the officials say anything discordant, the misconduct of manners in front of the palace, or any problems with their lifestyle, they can directly impeach Guo Peng.

For example, Guo Jia was repeatedly impeached by the Censorate because of his lifestyle, saying that he was frivolous and did not respect etiquette, which really made him lose the dignity of a high-ranking official in the empire and wanted to impeach him.

Cao Cao himself was also impeached by the Censorate.

Because he was too lustful, he had too many wives and concubines in his family, which was much more than the emperor. Later, his wives and concubines in his family were jealous and caused a scandal, which led to Cao Cao being impeached.

Not only that, Cao Cao was impeached for giving each other concubines to Guo Jia, saying that the impact was very bad.

So the relationship between Cao Cao and the Censorate is really bad. Guo Hong doesn’t like Cao Cao.

Anyway, if the Censorate wants to impeach officials, as long as the evidence is conclusive, you can do it. No matter how small the problem is, as long as it is a problem, as long as the Censorate wants to impeach, you can't escape it.

Cheng Yulai has nothing to do with Qiao Rui, nor has it to do with Guo Hong, so he didn't think of his relationship with the Censorate at the first time.

As a result, Tian Feng is now taking the lead. With the help of the Censorate, he suddenly reversed the situation that was originally very favorable to Cheng Yu, which made Cheng Yu very dissatisfied.

"No matter what, we must do this. Tian Yuanhao threatens you and me. If you and I don't work together, how can we fight against Tian Yuanhao? Not to mention that Tian Yuanhao has now joined forces with Qiao Rui to win over Shangshutai as a helper, which is even more unfavorable to us!"

After a while, Cao Cao felt that he also needed to join forces with Cheng Yu.

Although being impeached by the Censorate on his lifestyle can be considered a kind of self-deprecation, which makes Guo Peng less worried about him, he is still very unhappy.

That old guy Guo Hong relies on his age as the head of the Guo clan. He relies on his age to be a veteran and often points fingers at Cao Cao's private life, which also makes Cao Cao very upset.

What does it have to do with me taking a concubine? I am not your daughter!

If you are playing with a woman, you will be told that you are talking about it. Do you really think you are invincible in the world?

In the face of tension, if Tian Feng is not defeated, he will be impeached. If he loses his power, Cao's family will be completely out of the way.

Cao Ang did a good job as a county magistrate. Now he has been transferred to Liaodong to be a county magistrate. The 28-year-old county magistrate has been promoted step by step, and is also very young within the national county magistrate.

But within two or three years, don’t expect to come back and take over my power.

The second son Cao Pi was only eighteen years old and had not officially won the championship, let alone the official position to share the responsibility for the Cao family.

The other tribesmen were in the army and fought outside, and Cao Cao had no relatives who could be used to send.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao decided to give Cao Pi an early crown so that he could enter the court as an official as soon as possible, and begin to accumulate qualifications and hopes, which would help Cao Ang gain a foothold in the court in the future.

Cao Cao thought his idea was very good.
