I recommend a few novels. The Son of Cao Wei, a fictional historical novel written by Yi Mantra. This book changed the story of the Three Kingdoms to be quite interesting, like letting Cao Ang die of old age, Cao Wei's golden age, and so on. The evaluation of the book list was the Three Kingdoms, with elements such as auxiliary ministers and civil ministers. The protagonist's early stage was like Tang Brick, with humorous language. The protagonist and Guo Jiacheng were good friends and even saved Cao Ang. However, the protagonist's character was a little broken. The development of industrial technology did not consider productivity, and there were many bugs. The Great Emperor Cao Zhang was written by Gongsun White Horse Guard. After the protagonist became Cao Zhang, he explored the reasons for Cao Wei's failure. He basically wrote about Cao Wei's family. Follow Cao Cao, Zhang Jianbang's work. It was a story about following Cao Cao into the Three Kingdoms. There were elements such as reincarnation and hot-bloodedness. The main character was Cao Shuo. Cao Chong was written by Zhuang Buzhou. Cao Chong's resurrection had advanced knowledge, and the story was about whether he could change the direction of history. The idea was ingenious and the writing was good, but there were some small problems, such as the exaggeration of the amount of food. There was also 'Creation and Longevity: I Can Conjure Endless Gifts', a fantasy novel written by Ri Yun Mu Xi. Gu Yang, the main character, had a Dao Seed that could turn what he had learned into skills and eventually become the Sun God. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
Cao Zhi was Cao Cao's third son. He was intelligent since childhood and liked to read. At the age of seven, he could recite the Analects of Confucius and other Han Ci songs.

Cao Cao (155 - 220 March 15), also known as Meng De, nicknamed Ah Man, Ji Li, was born in Qiao County, Peiguo (now Bozhou City, Anhui Province). He was born into a bureaucrat family that started as an eunuch. His father, Cao Song, was the adopted son of the Great Eunuch Ying Teng. Cao Song became an official with his adoptive father's identity and was promoted to a marshal during the Han Ling Emperor. At the age of 20, Cao Cao entered the official career as the North Commandant of Luoyang. He ordered people to make more than ten colorful sticks and hang them around the Yamen to punish those who violated the law. He had once killed Uncle Jian Shuo, the Great Eunuch. This matter had caused a sensation in the capital and caused the nobles to restrain themselves. Later, he was expelled from the capital in the name of "recommendation" and was recruited as an idle official. During this period, he wrote a letter to defend the officials who were killed in the early years of Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty. He criticized the tyrannical eunuchs and the corrupt government. He also exposed the chaos of the Third Prince's officials. He was disappointed that the Emperor did not handle it well and no longer did such dangerous and ineffective things. Cao Cao's real rise began with the suppression of the Yellow Turban uprising. He was appointed as a cavalry commandant to fight against the rebels in Yingchuan. Later, he became one of the eight commandants of the West Garden. In 189, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty passed away. Liu Bian, the young emperor, ascended the throne. Empress Dowager He attended the court. Dong Zhuo went to the capital to abolish the young emperor, establish Emperor Xian, and self-proclaimed himself as prime minister. Cao Cao was dissatisfied with Dong Zhuo and refused his temptation to be an official. He changed his name and fled Luoyang. He crossed to Chenliu and scattered his family's wealth to recruit soldiers to participate in the war against Dong in the Kanto region. In 190, Cao Cao led his troops to fight against Dong Zhuo's army. Dong Zhuo's army was defeated and retreated to Chang 'an. The anti-Dong coalition army was disbanded. In 191, Cao Cao was elected as the prefect of Dongjun by Yuan Shao for his meritorious service in suppressing the peasant uprising in Hebei. Cao Cao used the name of Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Xie, to conquer the four directions, destroying the two Yuan, Lu Bu, Liu Biao, Ma Chao, Han Sui and other independent forces internally, subduing the Southern Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Xianbei and other countries externally, and unifying the northern regions of China. He expanded his sphere of influence and defeated Yuan Shao to become the overlord of the north. He also marched south to occupy Jingzhou and Jiangling. In the 18th year of Jian 'an (213 years), he was granted the title of Duke of Wei and established the State of Wei, with Ye as the capital. In the 21st year of Jian' an (216 years), he was conferred the title of King of Wei, with power above all kings. Cao Cao had also made great achievements in literature. He liked to express his political aspirations in poetry and prose and reflect the sufferings of the people. He was a representative figure of the Eastern Han literature and was praised by Lu Xun as the "founder of the reform of the article". He wrote works such as "Short Song Journey","Watching the Sea","White Horse" and so on. At the same time, he was good at calligraphy and was rated as a "wonderful product" by Zhang Huaiguan of the Tang Dynasty. In the twenty-fifth year of Jian 'an (March 15, 220), Cao Cao passed away. His posthumous title was Wu, and he was buried in Gaoling. His son Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor and granted him the title of emperor.

Cao Cao in Romance of the Three Kingdoms was an extremely complicated and multi-faced character. Cao Cao was an outstanding politician. In the chaotic situation at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, he rose to prominence with extraordinary political skills. He held the Son of Heaven to command the vassals, using the orthodox symbol of Emperor Xian of Han to put on a legal coat for his political and military actions, thus occupying a moral advantage in the disputes of the vassals and being able to legitimately conquer the four directions. He actively eliminated the two Yuan, Lu Bu, Liu Biao, Ma Chao, Han Sui and other independent forces internally, and surrendered the South Xiongnu, Wuhuan, Xianbei and so on externally, gradually unifying northern China. During his reign in the north, he carried out a series of effective policies, such as expanding the wasteland, building water conservancy projects, rewarding agriculture, attaching importance to handicraft industry, settling the exiled population, implementing "rent regulation", etc., which gradually stabilized the society of the Central Plains, restored the economy, made the politics clear to a certain extent, reduced the class oppression, and improved the social atmosphere. This laid a solid foundation for the establishment of Cao Wei's regime. Cao Cao was also an outstanding military strategist. He was proficient in the art of war and was good at using troops. He had displayed superb military command skills in many battles. For example, in the Battle of Guandu, he had defeated Yuan Shao with fewer people, which fully demonstrated his outstanding ability in military strategy, tactical application, and grasp of the war situation. He was able to judge the situation and formulate corresponding battle plans according to different battlefield situations and the characteristics of the opponent. However, Cao Cao was also portrayed as a treacherous and suspicious character in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. He was good at politics, suspicious and fickle. For example, in the process of persuading Zhang Liao to surrender, a moment ago, he was about to be killed because of Zhang Liao's scolding, but in the next moment, he threw his sword and laughed under Liu Bei and Guan Yu's persuasion. His change of attitude was so fast that it made people speechless. His suspicious personality even led him to kill the innocent. For example, when he was fleeing, he accidentally killed Lu Boshe's family and said,"I would rather let the world down than let the world down me." His suspicious and suspicious personality was vividly displayed. From the perspective of traditional morality, his behavior of holding the emperor to order the vassals was regarded as a traitor. Many of the things he did were considered to be contrary to traditional morality for the sake of fame and fortune. This also made him a controversial figure in the eyes of the world and labeled as a traitor. In literature, Cao Cao was good at poetry creation. His poems were magnificent, generous and sad, expressing his political aspirations and reflecting the suffering of the people at the end of Han Dynasty. His prose was clear and neat, which opened and flourished Jian 'an literature, forming a literary style that was called Jian' an Style by later generations. Lu Xun evaluated him as the "founder of the reform of the article." At the same time, he was also good at calligraphy and had made unique contributions in the field of art. In short, Cao Cao's image in Romance of the Three Kingdoms was a controversial character that combined political, military, and literary qualities. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao "held the Son of Heaven to command the vassals." The emperor he followed was Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of Han.

Cao Cao's words had a hint of teasing Yuan Shao, showing Cao Cao's character. <a href="/?from=ask_words" style="color:red" target="_blank">Read more exciting novels for free</a>
