Cao Cao was known for his lustfulness and liked to win people's affection, so he married a lot of beams. In the third year of Jian'an, Cao Cao and Liu Bei surrounded Lü Bu in Xia Pi, at this time, Guan Yu unusually found Cao Cao and said, "Elder Brother Cao, how about you give Me Lady Nadu as a concubine?" ”
After Cao Cao refused to be perfunctory several times, he took the opportunity to take Lady Du for himself.
We talked about the First Emperor Qin Shi Huang before, and today we will talk about this chaotic tyrant- Cao Cao. Cao Cao's conquest of the Central Plains and the unification of the north not only left him a strong and colorful stroke during the three kingdoms, but also left a lot of valuable literary wealth in the fields of literature, calligraphy, and music. Compared with his political achievements and talents, the well-known lustfulness is obviously flawed.
Xu Shao of Nanyang once said to Cao Cao: "The traitor of Jun Qingping and the hero of the chaotic world." "In ancient and modern times, only Cao Cao had this title. This tyrant showed extraordinary intelligence and heart at an early age, the so-called three-year-old look at the old, personality determines fate. In 155 AD, in the Eastern Han Empire's present-day Bozhou, Anhui, the family of a scholar-doctor happily ushered in the birth of a boy.
The old father Cao Artemisia held the child and knelt majestically in front of the ancestral tablet, and the old tears flowed, and as a result, the ancestral hall and the underground were silent, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while. It turned out that this Cao Artemisia was not the blood of the Cao family,but the ancestral surname Xiahou, who was an official in the central imperial court when he was young, and was always depressed, and later had to worship the eunuch Cao Teng as a dry father and change Xiahou to Cao's surname.
In the era when feudal society attached great importance to the inheritance of heirs, Xiahou Artemisia was a great disrespectful act of forgetting the ancestors. At that time, if he had not been cornered, he would not have made such a decision, and the person who made him make the decision to turn his back on his ancestors was not as simple as an ordinary eunuch.
According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Teng was a descendant of Cao San, the Western Han Dynasty. In the "History of the Chu Family", it is recorded: "Lu Had six sons in his lifetime, sued for caesarean section and gave birth. Its length is kunwu, the second is samhu, the third is Pengzu, the fourth is Huiren, the fifth is Cao surname, the sixth is Jilian, the surname of Qi, and the surname of Chu is also. That is to say, the Cao surname is from The Lu Final Gate, and Lu Zhong is a figure in the legend of the Han people in the ancient times, the son of Wu Hui, the ancestor of the Chu State, who is from the Emperor Gaoyang.
Such a birth can undoubtedly gild Xiahou Artemisia, and the descendants of the Cao family have always not forgotten to mention this noble origin in biographies and other documents, without mentioning the Xiahou bloodline, I don't know if their ancestor Quanxia knows whether he can be angry, anyway, the ancestors of the Cao family are happy to be upside down.
The appearance of Cao Artemisia saved the cao clan from breeding. Cao Teng is a eunuch without a queen is inevitable, he entered the palace since he was a child and later confronted the palace maid Wu Shi, because the adoption of Cao Artemisia enabled the Cao clan bloodline to be passed on. And Cao Teng also brought Cao Artemisia the glory he wanted, and since he worshiped this dry father, he began to walk in peace.
Cao Teng was given the title of Marquis of Feiting because of his support for Liu Zhi as emperor, and experienced four emperors in the court, because he was generous and did not make mistakes, and he was even better, so his adopted son Cao Artemisia inherited his title. At this time, Cao Artemisia, who had picked up a big bargain, knelt in front of the ancestral hall with his newborn young son in his arms, and said that he wanted to continue the glory for the ancestors, and the Cao family counted on this child, Cao Cao.
The ancestors of the Cao family and the Xiahou family both reserved their opinions, and for a moment they did not know whether they were happy or worried. It wasn't until Cao Cao gradually became an adult that Cao Artemisia realized that the ancestors might have been speechless about this child. Cao Cao did not like to talk about the scriptures, nor did he want to live according to the rules, and he recruited cats and dogs all day long, hunted and danced around, and became a well-known street wanderer.
At that time, many people pointed fingers at the Cao family, to the effect that it was unfortunate that such a family had a prodigal son, and Cao Cao did not think so. Until another time, his uncle was in debt, and every time he saw him in trouble, he couldn't help but nag, Cao Cao didn't listen, and his uncle came to Cao Artemisia to complain. Once his uncle complained, Cao Cao was beaten when he returned home, and over time, Cao Cao became resentful of his uncle and was determined to give him some color to see.
One day, he was wandering the streets and watching his uncle come over from a distance. He immediately fell straight back, his mouth crooked and his eyes trembling, frightening his uncle to hurry over and ask, "Ah Qi, what have you done?" Cao Cao shook the corners of his mouth and replied incoherently: "Eighty percent is not good, stroke!" Uncle save me! ”
As soon as the uncle heard that this was still possible, he immediately ran home to find Cao Artemisia, stumbling and describing, to the effect that your son is going to die, hurry up and go to see it, as a result, cao Artemisia took three steps and two steps to the scene of the incident, only to see Cao Cao chatting with people on the street unscathed, discussing something in a serious way.
Cao Artemisia carried Cao Cao's ear to the house: "Stinky boy, your uncle said that you had a stroke, what the hell is going on?" Cao Cao looked at his father innocently, and poor Baba Cha replied in a tealy manner: "Who knows, my uncle cursed me so much because I was not good enough, and I was not filial enough to him usually." I also hope that my father will not be suspicious of his son and uncle, and it does not matter if I am wronged. ”
When Cao Artemisia saw that her son was so atmospheric, she stayed away from her brother and no longer believed her brother's complaint. Cao Cao thus succeeded. From this small matter, it can be seen that Cao Cao did not take the usual path and was an egoist, which can understand why he later preferred to offend Guan Yu rather than violate his own nature.
In 198 AD, at the Battle of Xia Pi Cheng, Guan Yu repeatedly expressed to Cao Cao that he hoped to hand over Lady Du to him when the city was destroyed, cao Cao did not care at first, who knew that he ran to Cao Cao and said: "Brother Cao, you must not forget Lady Du. ”
"Brother Cao, you see that my wife in the family can't give birth to children, Lady Du, you must keep me as a concubine!"
"Brother Cao, Lady Du..."
Cao Cao was suspicious of nature, and Guan Yu was so attentive that he could not help but begin to wonder if this Lady Du was a heavenly state color that could make Guan Yu fall in love with him so much. Lady Du was actually Qin Yilu's ex-wife, and Qin Yilu went to Yuan Shu and married the Han Dynasty's chambermaid as his wife, and this Lady Du and her son Qin Lang were left in Xia Pi.
Guan Yu's original match could not have children, and he wanted to take him as a beautiful concubine, who knew that when the city was destroyed, Cao Cao had already taken Lady Du for himself. The so-called gentleman does not seize people's love, Cao Cao's move completely offended Guan Yu, and later Guan Yu killed Cao Cao, and it was Liu Bei who persuaded him in time.
