I remember that the West Building was intoxicated, and the wind and objects of the past were like today. Each monarch is surrounded by people close to him, who not only treat them with green eyes, but also have a higher tolerance for them. Two days ago mentioned Ding Chong, this article will talk about Ding Fei fěi, the word Wenhou.
Compared with the comparison, the record of Ding Fei is less than that of Ding Chong, who is mainly supplemented by the Later Han Dynasty, and Ding Fei does not have to be supplemented. Ding Fei and Cao Cao were also fellow villagers, Ding Gong, Ding Chong, Ding Fei, Ding Yi, Ding Yi, Ding Yuyì and others were all from the Pei Kingdom, and they may have come from the same family. In addition, Lady Ding, whom Cao Cao married, may also be related to them, with the lower limit being each playing each other and the upper limit being the formation of a family similar to a foreign relative.
By the way, Ding Fei's table character "Wenhou" may be from the "Order of Shangshu Wenhou", and I did not see that the table character was the same as his. But it can also be related to some other characters, at the end of the Han Dynasty, there was a Li Wenhou who launched a rebellion in Liangzhou, and turned over the "Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms and the Book of Wei", and none of the Wei state ministers had the title of "Wen Hou", but Zhang Zhao, who was in the camp of the State of Wu, was "Wen Hou".
Ding Chong had an excellent friendship with Cao Cao, and Ding Fei was not to be outdone, and Cao Cao also had great trust in Ding Fei. However, there are still some differences between Ding Chong's experience with Ding Fei, Ding Chong did not join Cao Cao in raising troops to fight Dong, he was still serving as a Yellow Gate Attendant in the middle of the dynasty, and later advised Cao Cao to welcome Tianzi and become a lieutenant.

"In the beginning, Fei followed Taizu, Taizu followed Fei Xiangli, and specially spared love" - "Three Kingdoms Chronicles Cao Shuang Biography" notes "Wei Luo"
Ding Fei was greedy for money, and he had broken the law several times, but Cao Cao did not choose to punish him. Of course, this is related to the friendship between Cao Cao and Ding Fei, and may also be mixed with some other factors, such as Ding Fei's loyalty to Cao Cao enough, or Ding Fei's clan with Lady Ding, as a foreign relative, he has some self-defilement, or this contains Cao Cao's apology for Lady Ding, but unfortunately there is no historical support.
"Good goods, number of requests to break the law, the original" - "Three Kingdoms Chronicles Cao Shuang Biography" notes "Wei Luo"
Ding Fei was appointed by Cao Cao as a lieutenant of the military academy, which was one of the eight lieutenants of the Former West Garden, if it was used down, he should have the power to run the forbidden army, plus Ding Fei could be the chief regent inside and outside, indicating that he was indeed responsible for guarding the palace inside and outside, which also showed Cao Cao's trust in him, and every time Ding Fei made a suggestion, Cao Cao would basically adopt it.
Cao Cao's conquest of horse overtime Ding Fei was also in the army, and Ding Fei played a key role in this battle. When Cao Cao led his army across the river, Ma Chao led the army to attack, and at this critical moment, Ding Fei showed his quick wit, and he released cattle and horses as bait, which not only blocked Ma Chao's army, but also caused the enemy who was not strict in military discipline to choose to rob the cattle and horses. It is precisely because of the wonderful performances of Ding Fei, Zhang Guo, Xu Chu and others that Cao Cao was able to cross the river smoothly, and perhaps it can be counted as a life-saving grace
"Lieutenant Ding Fei was a thief for herding cattle and horses, and the thieves took cattle and horses indiscriminately, and Gong Nai had to cross" - Chronicle of the Three Kingdoms, Emperor Wuji
When Cao Cao conquered Eastern Wu, Ding Fei was still accompanying him, and judging from the description of "the end of Jian'an", it should be the time when Cao Cao attacked Shukou in the twenty-second year of Jian'an (217). At this time, Cao Cao had been in the army for nearly 30 years, Ding Fei still did not change his greedy character, he thought that his cattle were too thin, so he privately exchanged the official cattle with his own cattle, but this time he was also taken into prison after being reported and stripped of his official position.
Because Ding Fei, who had been dismissed from office, had no seal silk, Cao Cao asked Ding Fei, "Where has your seal gone?" Ding Fei also knew that Cao Cao was teasing him, so he responded very mischievously, "Take it for a cake." Talk about this matter between laughter and laughter, Cao Cao did not intend to punish Ding Fei, this kind of thing is not uncommon for Ding Fei.
Cao Cao said to the people present, "Dong Cao Mao Jie often reports Ding Fei and hopes that I will severely punish him, I am not unaware that Ding Fei is greedy for money, and this is not once or twice." It's just that Ding Fei is like a mouse-catching dog to me, although there are some petty thefts, but he can keep the contents of my bag. "So Ding Fei was reinstated, and within a few years he died of illness." His heir Ding Mi Mì was listed among the "Three Dogs of Taichung" during the Cao Shuang period, which is a bit coincidental.
"I have a fei, for example, people have dogs and are good at catching rats, although thieves have small losses, and after I have stored náng zhù" - "Romance of the Three Kingdoms Cao Shuang" notes "Wei Luo"
Meet and laugh, small is not counted.
