Talking about prodigies

As we all know, most smart people are short-lived, either dying of illness or being murdered by others. There are two prodigies in The Romance of Three Kingdoms, one is Cao Chong, the son of Cao Cao, and the other is Zhou Buyi, the nephew of Liu Biao. And the two of them are what people call smart and short-lived. Cao Chong died of illness, and Zhou Buyi was killed by Cao Chong's father Cao Cao! What the hell is going on here? How are they inextricably linked? See also the following:

Cao Chong

Let's talk about how smart two people are. The first is Cao Chong, who should be familiar to all of us. His classic story "Cao Chong" is circulated in primary school Chinese textbooks. It goes without saying that five-year-old Cao Chong solved the problem of being an elephant for adults. Children in ordinary families, at least five years old, will not think and solve problems like Cao Chong.

If there is anyone who thinks like Cao Chong, it must be Zhou Buyi. Zhou Buyi, a gifted boy, wrote four literary theories at the age of seventeen. When I was a child, because he was so smart, no one wanted to be his teacher and felt that he was not worthy. Even the resourceful Zhuge Liang praised him. Who is Zhuge Liang? Needless to say, are all the people who can get Zhuge Liang's praise ordinary?

Cao Cao's foresight

In this way, two talented teenagers met in Xudu and became good friends. When Zhou Buyi comes into contact with Cao Chong, he is bound to meet his father, Cao Cao. Fortunately, Cao Cao had a good impression on Zhou Buyi, and he also intended to betroth his daughter to Zhou Buyi. Zhou Buyi also gave Cao Cao ten siege methods to help him get Liuzhou. A year later, Cao Chong died in Liuzhou. This incident dealt a great blow to Cao Cao, and Cao Pi had to be chosen as the heir to the throne. Cao Cao's vision is unparalleled. Although xelloss inherited the great cause, but considering that he is not as clever as Cao Chong, leaving Zhou Buyi will be a curse in the future. So I had the idea of killing Zhou Buyi.

Cao Pi is also a good friend of Zhou Buyi. He once advised his father, but because of his father's words: You can't control him at all. And he chose to stand with his father, ending the life of his good friend Zhou Buyi. As the saying goes, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Whoever moves my interests can only turn against each other. If Cao Chong were still alive, Zhou Buyi might not have to die. God may be fair. Although their lives are short, Cao Chong and Zhou Buyi both have a clever brain, leaving a legendary and short life, which will be told through the ages.
