In 208 AD, just after Cao Chong died, Zhou Buyi was immediately killed by Cao Cao. After Cao Pi learned of the situation, he deliberately went to plead. Unexpectedly, Cao Cao said, "This man is beyond your control." That is to say, dad did all this for your own good. You can't beat Zhou Buyi at all. Can you not kill him?
But I don't know if Cao Cao realized it when he said this sentence. He made a big mistake, because the first child prodigy in the Three Kingdoms was neither Cao Chong nor the Zhou Buyi who frightened him, but Xelloss!
One: Cao Pi's magical birth.
Cao Pi was born in A.D. 187. According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms, when he was born, he "had a blue cloud and was like a hood. When he was on it all day, he thought it was the most expensive card, not the gas of a minister."
When Cao Pi was born, a blue cloud appeared in the sky, like the car cover of a king, which filled the whole day. It happened that this scene was seen by a strange man who was good at "looking at the gas" and exclaimed: This gas is the most noble when it is the gas of the son of heaven!
Believe it or not, this is what is recorded in the history books. But to be honest, I don't quite believe it. It's just a familiar historical routine. For example, Liu Bang's mother dreamed that a dragon was lying on her body, and then she was pregnant with Liu Bang. Therefore, Cao Pi's son-of-heaven spirit when he was born can only be referred to at the beginning, that is, the "extra points" in the "child prodigy campaign".
Second: Cao Pi's extraordinary experience before he was ten years old.
What is a prodigy? It is by relying on one's own wisdom and hard work that many adults can't do. Such as Cao Chong's fame, Gan Luo's worship is equal, and Zhuge Ke's writing "Zhuge Ziyu's donkey" ... But unfortunately, compared with Xelloss, the deeds of these three prodigies have all become gestures, which is simply weak.
According to Cao Pi's "Self-narration of Canon Theory", I was five years old. Disturbed by the quartet, I learned to shoot after school, and I knew how to shoot at the age of six. I also taught Yu to ride a horse. At the age of eight, I knew how to ride and shoot.
When Cao Pi was five years old, Cao Cao thought that, nowadays, the four sides are rising together and the world is full of swords and soldiers. If you want to make a difference in this troubled times, you must let your children "win at the starting line". So the flat Cao Cao taught Cao Pi to learn archery. A year later, when Cao Pi was 6 years old, he had mastered archery. Then Cao Cao taught Cao Pi to ride a horse, so at the age of 8, Cao Pi was already able to ride on a galloping horse and shoot an arrow before opening his bow.
So can 8-year-old Cao Pi hit the target? I don't know! I can only speculate: probably, otherwise why did Cao Pi write it? Even if you are bragging, you must have a cow first! It's inevitable to exaggerate, but it's not out of control. Needless to say, Cao Cao's painstaking efforts really played a great role at a critical moment.
From then on, Cao Pi followed Cao Cao to explore the west and began to learn the skills of fighting. Especially when he was 10 years old, Cao Cao came to Wancheng, and the famous battle of Wancheng began.
Cao Pi described it this way: Zhang Xiu fell, but turned against it every ten days. The deceased brother Xiao Lian Zi Xiu and his brother An Min were killed. When I was ten years old, I had to take off by horse. The way of civil and military affairs is used at any time.
Because of Zhang Xiu's rebellion-the specific reasons should be known to everyone, so I won't say much. In a word, Zhang Xiu caught Cao Cao off guard. Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang, nephew Cao An and general Dian Wei all died here. 10-year-old Cao Pi rode a horse and escaped in the chaos. This matter had a great influence on Cao Pi, which made him realize that learning should be started from an early age, and that civil and military training should not be biased, so as to play a role at any time.
Now Cao Pi 10' s experience has come out: at the age of 6, he can shoot an arrow, and at the age of 8, he can ride a horse. 10' s age has already learned the skills of fighting, such as escaping from the disorderly army, so-called saving himself can destroy the enemy!
Conclusion: Is it a little shocking to see the extraordinary experience of Cao Pi 10 years old? That's why xelloss is the best prodigy in the Three Kingdoms! Probably Cao Pi is modest. After he has become an emperor, what's the use of fighting for the name of prodigy?
Of course, there is another possibility. The so-called knowing son Mo Ruofu, from the analysis of the sentence when Cao Cao killed Zhou Buyi, seems that Xelloss is suspected of bragging, which is too exaggerated.
In addition, in the dispute between him and Cao Zhi's prince, Cao Pi has always been worried that he is not as good as Cao Zhi in literary attainments, so he said: The way of being civil and military should be used at any time! There is another meaning. Is this the way to counter Cao Zhi's partiality? It can only be said that.
But in any case, because the experiences of Cao Pi 10 years old are all recorded in black and white, it can only be said that the first child prodigy in the Three Kingdoms belongs to Cao Pi. As for why it is not recognized, this is another topic!
