Is Cao Cao really a lovely adulterer?

The loveliest thing about Cao Cao is that he loves telling the truth.

Originally in the political struggle, in the officialdom, it was inevitable to tell some lies. But Cao Cao is really smart. In an era when everyone tells lies, he tells the truth because the truth is the best weapon. This is not only because the truth itself has eloquent power, but also because once you tell the truth, people who tell lies will be at a loss and their play will not go on. What if we don't continue? Had to step down.

Cao Cao in daily life is actually a very free and easy person. He likes joking and often tells serious things with jokes. During the institutional reform in the seventeenth year of Jian 'an, some people asked for merger, with the intention of crowding out the emperor who was impartial and unselfish. Cao Cao's answer is humorous: sunrise in the east, bright moon in the east, things first. Why do you want to cut Dongcao? For example, YanHang took refuge in Han Sui, but his father was held hostage by Cao Cao. Cao Cao wrote to Yan Xing: Your father is safe now. However, prison is not a place to provide for the aged, and the state can't always support the father for others!

This character of Cao Cao is very helpful to his career. It is not good for politicians to be too serious. Either it makes people feel too smart and untrustworthy, or it makes people feel unreasonable and inaccessible. It is best to work hard, be free and easy at ordinary times, be uncompromising in principle, be careless, and have the prestige and majesty of the leader as well as the human touch and sense of humor. Such a person can win the heartfelt love and support of others. Cao Cao is such a person.

Although Cao Cao is free and easy, he is not frivolous. He is actually a very deep person. Cao Cao's profundity is manifested in his accurate understanding of people and profound intentions. On the surface, he can shake your hand and laugh with you, but he watches you all the time and is incisive. Yuan Shu is so arrogant, Yuan Shao is so arrogant, and Cao Cao doesn't care, but Liu Bei, who has sold straw sandals before and is now a sponsor, has special respect for him. Although Liu Bei kept a low profile and pretended to be deaf and dumb when he was under his command, Cao Cao saw through at a glance: "The only heroes in the world today are the monarch (referring to Liu Bei) and Cao Er!" Liu Bei was so scared that he dropped his chopsticks on the spot. Maybe Cao Cao shouldn't say this in front of Liu Bei, but it can be understood as not being steady enough, or being a fire reconnaissance, or shocking the world. This means that none of us should pretend to be grandchildren, and none of us is more stupid than anyone else. Sure enough, Liu Bei couldn't hold on any longer and found a chance to run away.

If letting Liu Bei go is that Cao Cao himself can't forgive his negligence, then it should be said that he has taken care of others step by step and is quite meticulous. In order to kill Yu Xun, he first invited Yu Xun to work in the front line and transferred him from the court. Then, he was relieved of his post as a secretary, and was demoted to join the army of the prime minister and become his direct subordinate. Finally, send someone to send a box to Yu Xun. Yu Xun opened it and found nothing in it. It was empty, so he killed himself. Is this method made by frivolous people? Under Cao Cao, if anyone really thinks he is frivolous, then his head is not far from moving.

Liu Bei and Sun Quan are indeed more cunning than Cao Cao (they are weaker and more cunning). Liu Bei, in particular, knows how to pretend. He pretended to be timid in front of Cao Cao, retarded in front of Zhuge Liang, and kind in front of his subordinates. Even ordinary people knew: "Liu Bei cast his son and invited to buy people's hearts." Of course, their cunning or cleverness lies in their low political posture. They have been careful not to show their edge as much as possible so as not to become the target of public criticism. Sun Quan even encouraged Cao Cao to be the first bird with ulterior motives. Fortunately, Cao Cao saw through it at a glance and did not fall for it. But xelloss is impatient. As soon as Cao Cao died, he deposed Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty and became emperor on his own. Now Liu Bei and Sun Quan are overjoyed: someone takes the lead, but he can't go to school. So they became emperors with dignity. As a result, Cao Cao, who was not an emperor, was called a "traitor", while Liu Bei and Sun Quan, who became emperors, were not denounced as "usurpers".

Although Cao Cao has been accused of being a traitor and cursed for thousands of years, he is really an open-minded and highly individual figure. He is a living person, not a political symbol, not a political zombie, not the kind of bastard who just wants to trick people with a long face!
