Old Thief Sima, Stop Touching This World.

Cao Wei during the Sima Zhao period. Regardless of the court. Or the governor and local military town. They are all from the Sima family faction. Even if it's not. That is also a big clan in Kanto that has an exchange of interests. They have formed a new interest group. Moreover, Emperor Cao Wei's righteousness was of no use at all. Only Emperor Liu Han's righteousness is useful. Cao Wei's clan and old generals were also cleaned up. Besides, the Sima family was reduced to the Fuwei Holy Dynasty and ruled the world with filial piety. How could I play a power game with a puppet like you? The fact that you can live as a yes man is his greatest gift. If something happens. Died of illness. Violent death. Deposed emperor. Choose one of three. Except for calling. There is no choice. After all, political power comes from the barrel of a gun. Son of Heaven. Those with strong soldiers and horses should do it 🪖

Impossible, the nobles are not fools, everyone knows: You can't even control the Luoyang City Gate in your hands now But you said that you will give me the land of the Korean Peninsula, Japan, and Xianbei to open Xinjiang and become the king - This is more like a blank check for emergency medical treatment, rather than a cashable political contract. --- 2. The true interests of the gentry: what they want is not a "distant kingdom" 1. Cao Wei's nine-rank Zhongzheng system has given the gentry the benefit of being "unstable" Cao Wei established the nine-rank Zhongzheng system. The actual effect is: the descendants of the nobles with the highest family status have priority in occupying high-ranking officials and generous salaries, and the political power of the gentry is highly hereditary. At the same time, the gentry controlled a large number of "guests" and "tribes" private soldiers to form their own settlements and armed forces. In other words: > Under the current system, the northern gentry are already firmly seated in the court, possessing land, tax sources, manpower and military power - "without the need for expeditions, they have become semi-feudal vassals." You tell him now: "Come, I will send you to the Korean Peninsula, the Japanese, and the Xianbei grasslands, and you will be the founding prince of the distant country." For him, it is equivalent to: Leaving the core political circle of the Central Plains Leaving the familiar clan network Luo Leaving the already stable system of disciples and old officials Going to a distant and isolated land with backward culture, unstable political power, and difficult supplies In the mentality of the nobles at the time, this was more like "exile + high-risk entrepreneurship" than "promotion". --- 2. The gentry and the Sima clan are "of the same class" and are not naturally opposed The Sima clan itself is a top gentry, and: Control the central army Hands the first-line resources for foreign campaigns Extensive fishing through the nine-level Zhongzheng system and official selection system, bringing other gentry into its own support system For other gentry: > "Follow the Sima clan" = Shoucheng + Sharing vested interests "Betting on Cao Huan" = taking a huge risk of political extermination and changing to a future that may not win Unless Cao Huan can show a very real and immediately visible advantage (such as immediately mobilizing heavy troops in certain towns), verbally promising to be crowned king will be very cost-effective for rational nobles. --- 3. The geographical and military reality of "foreign sealing is king": This is very unreliable The direction of foreign sealing you mentioned: The Korean Peninsula, Japan, Xianbei and Donghu areas Look at the realistic difficulty one by one: 1. Korean Peninsula Cao Wei had the traditional influence of Lelang, Daifang and other counties in the northern part of the Korean Peninsula, but his control was limited and he was often attacked by forces such as Goguryeo. To "be crowned king" there means to station troops for a long time, handle food and grass transportation by yourself, and also face possible sea harassment from Goguryeo, local tribes, and Soochow at the same time. For the nobles, this is more like: > Taking their own clan to the front line to gamble their lives, rather than enjoying the benefits of family status in peace. 2. Japan (Japanese) The Japanese country in the Three Kingdoms "Wei Zhi·Biography of the Japanese", at this time, for the Central Plains, it was just a string of tribute objects from "small barbarian countries" far away on the sea. The Wei Dynasty had almost no actual ability to rule there and could only accept some "symbolic tribute". The routes are unstable, the climate and geography are completely unfamiliar, and the Central Plains gentry have no tradition of sea power, let alone colonial experience. So in the cognitive framework of people at the time, "I'll let you go to Japan and become king" was almost as abstract as saying "I'll let you go to the moon and become king". 3. The boundary between Xianbei and Donghu Cao Wei's approach to Xianbei was more of restraint and roping in various tribes to restrain each other, rather than direct Han feudal rule. For a Central Plains gentry clan to move north as a whole, live among nomadic forces, and become a "sandwich layer of Han kings", the risks are extremely high: Ethnic conflict Military food supply Winter survival Backlash by Xianbei This is closer to "frontline governor + candidate for martyrdom" than a stable hereditary king. --- 4. Historical comparison: Those who really dared to rebel against Sima had a tragic ending Wang Ling, Guanqiu Jian, Wen Qin, and Zhuge Dan, some of these people were senior generals and some were local military and political officials. They had already mastered real troops and real cities, but their rebellion against Sima had failed. Their failure was a living "death sample" for the subsequent gentry: The anti-Sima failed → the clan was destroyed or migrated and dispersed Dedicated to Soochow → the defeat was even worse, and was finally dealt with by Sima Zhao In this context, if Cao Mao said: > "You come and support me, and I will grant you the title of king overseas and in the north." What comes to most of the nobles' minds is not the cool picture of "sitting on the ground and becoming a king", but: > "Let's not say whether I will become a king in the future, Now that I stand in line, it is certain that Sima Zhao will kill me first." The rational choice is: pretend to be stupid, remain silent, and don't express your stance.

Protagonist selection: The reason why I write about Cao Huang is because it is too easy for Cao Mao and Cao Fang to seize power. If Cao Mao gathers people to ambush in the palace and kill Sima Zhao when he enters the palace, the success rate is very high (this is how He Jin died and how Obai was captured) Cao Huang was a puppet when he first ascended the throne, but the emperor naturally holds great righteousness. Righteousness is a very mysterious thing. As long as Cao Huang's words and deeds are correct, Sima Zhao can oppose it in two ways, because everyone likes to be reasonable and unreasonable, especially if the monarch is unreasonable, no one will support it. This is why Cao Huang often has the upper hand in the article. The way of a monarch and his ministers is the greatest "righteousness", so there are kings of Qin and coercing the emperor to command the princes all for the sake of righteousness. If Sima Zhao doesn't abide by the rules, don't expect others to abide by the rules. In the end, the unlucky one is the Sima family, as mentioned in the article. Therefore, Cao Mao's charge was in vain, and Sima Zhao was forced to kill the three tribes of Chengji. If you don't have an army in hand, you won't be able to speak forcefully. When Sima Shi died, he summoned Sima Zhao to take over the seal of the general. Cao Mao sent an edict to station Sima Zhao in Xuchang. However, Sima Zhao forcibly led his army back to Luoyang. Cao Mao was forced to confer Sima Zhao as the general. (I tried to express this pressure through Wang Xian's drawing of the sword, but the ability was insufficient and unsatisfactory.) However, the three rebellions in Huainan made the Sima family realize that there are still loyal ministers in the world. If they act recklessly, there will be no guarantee that there will be no other rebellions. The two countries of Wu and Shu relieved some pressure on Cao Huang, just like Cao Mao worried about rebellion and had to hold his nose and admit Sima Zhao as a general. As long as you can withstand the pressure and firmly hold the righteousness, you can push Sima Zhao back. But be careful about your methods and don't push too hard, otherwise Sima Zhao will raise his troops and bloodbath the palace in minutes. To successfully seize power, help is essential. The three swords of eunuchs, relatives, clans, and old general groups are all available, and the greatest power belongs to the aristocratic family. The aristocratic family actually doesn't care who becomes the emperor. After all, they are the ones who actually govern the world. The aristocratic family is the people of the world. It doesn't matter who is the emperor. The difference lies in who can give more benefits. In this regard, Cao Huang first played the enfeoffment card. Needless to say, the temptation of enfeoffment was so great that aristocratic families began to support the emperor. The only thing Sima Zhao could do was to prove that he would resolutely implement the enfeoffment policy. This process was the development process of Cao Huang. Some comments said that Cao Huang could not succeed, and even said that he was a fool. This was because he did not realize the role of righteousness (as strong as a mold, he also had to fight for oil in the name of anti-terrorism → in the end, he had to take out washing powder to pay). Cao Mao failed to control righteousness, not because he didn't want to, but because he didn't know how to do it. It's probably because no one taught him, and Cao Mao's determination and shame were also lacking. Finally, some people said that Cao Mao was just Liu Xie, but that's a shame!

It is too late at this time. Unless you bloodbath a generation in the Cao Wei court, including the clans in various places, a change of dynasty is an inevitable result. The Sima family controlled all the channels for entry into the imperial court, and all the military generals abroad were members of the Zhongcheng Sima family or simply in-laws of the Sima family. It was like a big net that completely trapped Cao Wei, and no one could come.

Are you dying to get dressed again? ?

Damn it, can you still play in the late Three Kingdoms period?

Ruying Group has already overwhelmed Qiaopei Group, right?

It will be difficult to seize power at this time, let's see first.

Get🤭🤭

Sima, how tall are you in centimeters?

After overthrowing the Sima family, will the protagonist pursue Cao Mao?

Yes, many people read novels to see if they are interested. Accepting beauties can easily attract interest in reading novels. Many of the previous Three Kingdoms novels included beauties.

More than a hundred chapters have just been released, and there is no cheating in the writing, which is quite good

Good books are not easy

Updated once a day. You are making it difficult for me

Can you answer the previous question?

I mean, the previous question was about whether the updated novel has multiple female protagonists. Can you answer it?

Will you start novels with multiple female protagonists in the future?

What it means is not very clear.

Will you start reading novels about the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin in the future?

Personally, I think it's a matter of time travel. Many novels about the Three Kingdoms like to collect all the beauties, but there aren't many beauties to collect in today's time.
