Cao Cao has 25 sons all one's life, power is quite enormous. But later, political power of whole Cao the Kingdom of Wei gives Sima Jiazu to divest easily however. Appeared here one asks question: Since Cao Cao is so much son, the eye looks at on the wane of country of Cao the Kingdom of Wei, by father and son of Si Mayi, minister division, minister clear one step by step nibble, and even finally by minister phlogistic seize. those sons of Cao Cao, with respect to neither one the station comes out to fight with Sima Jiazu?
In the process of Sima Jiazu seize power, the sons that also cannot say Cao Cao had not sent sound, but the sound that gives out, comparative however delicate in health.
Pass Gao Pingling coup when Si Mayi, defeat Cao Shuang, after the affairs of state of capturing Wei Guo, ling Ceng of department empty king and combination of nephew Linghu I rise, want to abandon the imperial Cao Fang at that time, wang Caobiao succession of the son that support Cao does, Hunan. But this coup puts into practice without there's still time, was given to strangle by Si Mayi. Wang Ling commits suicide, cao Biao also is coerced commit suicide by Si Mayi.
Cao Cao's son appears the 2nd times on the history, be in minister division when, the book in fragrant combination makes the imperial Cao at that time Li Feng, too doctor of Changxia Hou Xuan, smooth salary piece arrest, want to abandon minister division, result coup still did not happen, be given by minister division undone. After minister division abandons Cao Fang at that time, cao of king of city of the son that wants to establish Cao Cao, Peng is occupied for the emperor, just object because of Guo mother of an emperor, final ability changes children's hair establishing Cao to be an emperor.
Here, although Cao Cao's son sent sound, but depend on already completely however went up personally in Sima Jiazu.
Cao Cao's son appears the 3rd times on the history, it is Cao children's hair cannot be borne really " Sima Zhaozhi heart " , so saucily is taking guard to head for assassinate minister clear, be turned over finally to kill by the following of minister clear. After Cao children's hair is dead, the son Cao Huan of eaves of Cao of king of the son that minister clear does Cao, swallow is an emperor. Nevertheless this Cao Huan also does not pass even if have czar of a dummy, final by minister phlogistic to seize. Cao Yu is in this process, had not sent sound all the time actually.
Do sons from above Cao, seize in Sima Jiazu in light of the mark that leaves in the process, be too pitiful really. Or is regarded as castle to use blow Sima Jiazu by others, him or swings to Sima Jiazu, the tool that or makes Sima Jiazu completely...
So, cao does so much son, why can you be such expression?
I think, have a few more the following reason.
One, force of the seize power that be cut by oneself emperor.
Cao Cao's sons although a lot of, but there is what power without the palm however in their hand. What power to control without the palm? This is the result that is cut to seize ceaselessly by father and son of of Cao Pi, Cao.
Because be the representing's Cao to do sons with Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, once drastically has been contended for store. Accordingly, after Cao Pi appears on the stage, had severe blow to the other sons of Cao Zhi and Cao Cao. The method of blow does not let them gain military power namely, do not make their hold office at court medium hold a post as far as possible, and undertake move from one place to another is sealed repeatedly. Come so, cao holds sons to be able to master the power in face without the person almost. There is influence in the hand, they resemble common person same, where is able what?
When Cao Pi dies, giving Cao chose 4 complementary politics chancellery, among them Cao Zhen, Cao Xiu surnames Cao twice. But the son that they are not Cao Cao, just be imperial clan personnel just.
After Cao appears on the stage, continue to implement the policy of his dad, choosing to Cao Fang later complementary politics chancellery when, also chose a Cao Shuang that surnames Cao. Dan Caoshuang is Cao Zhen's son, also did not concern with Cao Cao's sons.
2, the blow that be elbowed out by oneself imperial clan.
Cao Cao's sons, besides force of the seize power that be cut by of Cao Pi, Cao, they also are elbowed out to hit by oneself imperial clan. Cao Shuang controls Cao Wei's power for the palm, the sons that of purpose suppress Cao does, arrange two oneself sons on the mainest station however. Be exemplaried to launch coup of tall smooth hill by Sima finally regrettablly, catch the whole lot in an action.
The son Cao that Sima Shiceng thinks to establish Cao Cao is occupied for the emperor. But, oneself position lives to protect after Guo Tai, oppose Cao is occupied instead for the emperor. Because come so, he is mother of an emperor originally, became nephew son's wife. Such, cao Cao's son fails finally arena of the history on the station.
3, be restricted to monitor by Sima Jiazu.
Cao Cao's sons, besides be hit by oneself person, still have the blow that comes from Sima Jiazu. After the incident of Cao Biao of support of king approach purpose happens, si Mayi fears such thing happens again, " Jin Shu " Ceng Ji carries " (Si Mayi) all records Ye of park of Wei Zhu princes and dukes, the life has department censorial, must not hand in close " , that is to say, all king Home Cao Wei (the sons that also include Cao Cao of course) change come back, find a place for in Ye city, group person monitors technically rise.
Come so, cao Cao's sons accuse in Sima Jiazu's palm under, what did they have impossibly of course to regard as.
