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

The fortune-teller of the Three Kingdoms predicted that Cao Pi would die at the age of 80, and as a result, Cao Pi died at the age of 40, which obviously showed that the prediction and reality were extremely inaccurate. Surprisingly, although Cao Pi thought of the "80-year-old prophecy" before he died, he said that the fortune teller's prediction of his past life was very accurate. In the face of Cao Pi's reaction, I think everyone will be confused. However, whether this fortuneteller is accurate or not depends mainly on what Xelloss himself says. Since Xelloss calls for accurate prediction! Then nature also has its internal reasons.

For Cao Pi, the impression of the world may be that he is a nobody who only depends on his father Cao Cao for a living. But in fact, if you really hold such a view on Cao Pi, it is really a little small, the founder of Cao Wei regime (Wei State). Although Cao Pi "forced the emperor to abdicate, he ascended the throne", and Cao Pi did have some bad habits in his private life. But if we really want to look at its ruling ability, Cao Pi is indeed qualified to be the emperor. Cao Cao loved talents very much all his life. As a son of man, Cao Pi also won his father's "true biography", and he has always held the attitude of "being thirsty for talents and eclectic".

First, the background and process of the incident.

As early as when Cao Cao was in power, the fortune teller in the title was famous all over the world. At that time, as a prince, Cao Pi worshipped him very much. The fortune teller is Zhu Jianping. In 200 AD, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao in the battle of Guandu, which opened the situation of "unifying the north and having three pillars". After the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao hosted a banquet in the capital Xuchang to reward the three armed forces. At the banquet, Xelloss asked Yu Xun, a counselor, to introduce him, and he was lucky enough to meet Zhu Jianping. Moreover, Cao Pi also asked Zhu Jianping to perform divination for himself. The content of divination is: When will Cao Pi die in the future! See Zhu Jianping eyes staring at xelloss, and then first a burst of laughter, then shook his head and sighed. Cao Pi is clever, but he doesn't know what it means. After the meeting, Zhu Jianping said to Cao Pi, "Your son can live to be 80 years old, but when he is 40 years old, his life will change. If the son can be upright in the future, then he will live for 80 years! " Hearing this, xelloss left happily.

Secondly, the analysis of Cao Pi's ci.

In the sixth year of Huang Chu, in 226 AD, Cao Pi died in Luoyang. As for the real cause of death of Cao Pi, it is clearly recorded: it probably means that Cao Pi unfortunately caught a cold when he personally conquered Wu, and September is the time when autumn and winter alternate. Coupled with the recurrence of Cao Pi's inherent old injuries, Cao Pi finally became ill and weak after returning to Luoyang.

Before he died, Xelloss really understood Zhu Jianping's prediction. (1) If Xelloss did not kill too many people when he was in office, it might really be like what Zhu Jianping said that day. Xelloss could be lucky to live to 80 years old without sin; (2) Cao Pi died at the age of 40. The understanding of Zhu Jianping's words is that "every day and night is 40 years, and it is a day". According to this calculation, he is really 80 years old.

In fact, at this point, whether Zhu Jianping's prediction of Cao Pi is accurate is still a controversial issue. In the end, Cao Pi's death did confirm Zhu Jianping's prediction in the past. On the one hand, it highlights Zhu Jianping's superb physiognomy; On the other hand, it highlights the importance of being an emperor, diligent and loving the people, honest and clean.
