The fortune teller predicted that Cao Pi would live to be 80, but why did Cao Pi die at 40 and say his prediction was accurate?

Cao Cao worked hard all his life. Although he failed to unify the whole country, he also laid a solid foundation for more than half of the country. He did not rashly proclaim himself emperor, but gave the position to his son xelloss. Cao Pi also finished the work well. He replaced the Han Dynasty and became the first emperor of Cao Wei. He lives in the shadow of his father, but he is a very good emperor. Although not as good as his father, he also protected Cao Wei's country well. Xelloss unwilling, his heart still want to make some achievements. At that time, the world was divided into three points, and the biggest regret of my father's life was that he could not unify the world.

He really wanted to finish this career in his heart, but the situation of three points in the world lasted for a long time, and Cao Wei occupied the advantage, but there was no way to destroy Wu and Shu in a short time. I can only plan slowly, so Cao Pi began to worry that he would not live in unity, so he found a fortune teller to tell his fortune. This man was also a very famous fortune teller named Zhu Jianping. It is said that he never makes mistakes in telling people's fortune, which makes him more and more famous in China. Xelloss heard his name and immediately asked someone to tell his fortune.

These fortune tellers will also serve some dignitaries all the year round. Naturally, they have a clever story. Besides, xelloss's identity is extraordinary, so he can't tell fortune casually. Zhu Jianping directly said that Cao Pi would be rich and expensive in the future, but he also pointed out that Cao Pi would encounter a difficulty when he was 40 years old. As long as he can get through this, he can live to be 80 years old.

This is a rare thing, because people's living standards were very low at that time. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the average life expectancy of people was around 25 years old, and it was rare to live to 80 years old. Cao Pi was certainly happy to hear this, but later we also knew that Cao Pi could not live to be 80 years old.

Huang Chu died of a serious illness seven years later. At that time, he had just turned 40. Before he died, he thought of Zhu Jianping's prediction, and he directly said that he was very accurate. However, since Cao Pi didn't live to be 80 years old, why did he recognize Zhu Jianping's prediction? In fact, when he was about 40 years old, something happened inside Cao Wei. Cao Pi wanted to finish his father's career, so he was ready to continue south. Before that, he went south twice in a row, but neither achieved anything. This time, he went south and met his younger brother Cao Zhi. When he returns to Luoyang, his body will collapse completely.

Obviously, he didn't carry the disaster, and the fortune teller can't take it seriously, but Cao Pi's life is not long. I think Zhu Jianping should understand at that time that Xelloss would not live to be eighty years old.

This can be observed through his life. Why did Cao Pi die young? There was some information about his early death in the historical materials at that time. Among them, the history books specifically mentioned that Cao Pi had a habit, and he liked sweets very much.

Before he became emperor, he liked sweets. Later, when he became emperor, the demand for sweets was even greater. It is said that people all over the country sent him candy. People who like sweets so much must have some diseases.

In addition, Cao Pi is different from his father. He seldom goes to the battlefield and spends most of his time in the rear. Even though Cao Pi is good at martial arts, he is not as good as his father. Besides, after the political stability, Cao Pi's life was a bit chaotic, and he liked to drink women's wine. This kind of life has worsened his health. Actually, you don't need to believe in fortune telling. Zhu Jianping said this, which made xelloss more confident and let him off guard. When he really reaches the age of 40, it will be too late to pay attention.

Of course, 40 years old is a long time, but his ruling time is a little short, only seven years in total. After all, his father's health is too good. Cao Pi's early death had a great influence on Cao Wei's regime. Many people in later generations thought that if Cao Pi could live a few more years, the Sima family would have no chance to usurp power. Unfortunately, he didn't live long. Cao Pi's death gave Sima Yi a chance to enter the central government and used it as a springboard to start his own road to usurp power. Maybe he should calculate how his country will perish.
