Cao Pi: the Qingping Diao of the Literary Emperor
by Fang Beichen
About This Novel
The basic positioning of the "Fang Beichen Talks about the Three Kingdoms" series is that it is a popular and popular reading book with a solid academic foundation. It is neither as difficult to understand as the classical expressions in the history book "Three Kingdoms", nor as the novel "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which has many fictional transplants and loses the authenticity of history. The author carefully selects reliable materials from historical classics and freely uses the vivid writing style of literary aesthetics. The two are organically combined, striving to achieve the established level of being lively and interesting, concise and smooth, suitable for both refined and popular tastes, and suitable for all ages. Cao Pi, named Zihuan, was born in Qiao County, Peiguo (now Bozhou City, Anhui Province). His father was Cao Cao, a hero in the late Han Dynasty. This book mainly describes Cao Pi's military expeditions with his father, staying behind in Xudu to preside over government affairs, accepting Zen on behalf of the Han Dynasty to establish Cao Wei, establishing the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng System and reopening the Western Regions, dying young and sleeping in Shouyang, etc. It details Cao Pi's short and wonderful life, which not only includes the loss, forbearance and perseverance of not being established as a prince, but also a series of civil and military achievements established after becoming emperor, which makes him a wise king. In short, this is a Qingping tune in which the literary emperor is proud and willful.
