Yanzhou fortune-telling prodigy _ Yanzhou fortune-telling prodigy list

Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms is a hero. He was thirsty for sages and used a large number of sages. He is rich in talents and kind-hearted, far from Liu Bei of Shu and Sun Quan of Soochow. Speaking of Cao Cao's counselors, there was Guo Jia in the early stage. This genius helped Cao Cao win the battle of Guandu, unified the Central Plains and achieved hegemony. Unfortunately, he died young. In the later period, there was Sima Yi, a hidden old schemer, who was famous for his foresight. Even Zhuge Liang can't help him. It can be said that he failed to stop Zhuge Liang from cutting Wei out of Qishan by himself. However, he was later despised for usurping the throne.

Cao Cao

Today, let's talk about an anecdote about another strange man of Cao Cao. His name is Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu is neither as sharp-edged as Guo Jia and Sima Yi, but also has the enduring talents of Guo Jia and Sima Yi. It can be said that it is the "synthesis" of two extraordinary people.

Cheng Yu

Cheng Yu, whose real name is Li Cheng, was renamed Cheng Yu because he dreamed of holding the sun on Mount Tai. Cheng Yu is famous for his outstanding talent, and many people want to take him as their subordinate. Cheng Yu refused the call of imperial clan Liu Dai in his early years and took the initiative to join Cao Cao Group. It is said that when Cao Cao first met Cheng Yu, he said seven words from the bottom of his heart: "You must be my heart." As a result, Cheng Yu was shocked and replied with eight words: "Heroes in the world have no virtue". The two quickly entered the "honeymoon period".

Cao Cao

At the beginning, Cao Cao was struggling, but with the support and assistance of Xun, he held the only three cities in Yanzhou, and successfully stopped the attack of Lu Bu and Chen Gong, who were bullish at that time. Cao Cao was once lacking in confidence before he made his fortune. He persuaded Cao Cao not to "take refuge" in Yuan Shao, the overlord of the Central Plains, which played a reassuring role in boosting Cao Cao's confidence. Later, he helped Cao Cao defeat Yuan Shao in the battle of Guandu. After making peace with Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, Cao Cao worshipped Cheng Yu as a general of Fenwu, and his official career was like flying clouds.

In 233 AD, Cao Wei was the first to let courtiers enjoy the ancestral temple. As a result, Cheng Yu and Fu Cao Ren, who are neck and neck, were chosen and became a much-told story. Cheng Yu's position and power are therefore prominent for a while.

Of course, apart from Cheng Yu's brilliance and outstanding achievements, it is also related to his personality. He is honest and clean, and in the face of others' cliques, only Cheng Yu never colludes with others and has always been a loner. It can be said that there is no political threat to Cao Wei's rule, and because of this, he is deeply loved and reused by Cao Cao.

But when Cao Cao went south to Jingzhou and Liu Cong surrendered, the overall situation of the Central Plains was decided. Cao Cao caressed Cheng Yu's back and sighed, "If I hadn't listened to you, why would I be here?" Cheng Yu's answer this time was too unexpected: "I think I should retire." So he surrendered the military power and retired from the rivers and lakes. From then on, he no longer asked about the court.

After Cao Pi came to power, he wanted to restore Cheng Yu, who had helped him, to increase the number of fiefs. His son was also sealed. As a result, Cheng Yu, who was only over eighty years old, died of illness after receiving the imperial edict. This is really sad and deplorable. Cao Pi cried and sighed: It's too late to regret! Later, he was posthumously awarded as a general on horseback.
