Extended data:
Cao Cao advocated frugality and opposed extravagance all his life. Wei Zhi? Shu Wei was quoted as saying in Ji of Emperor Wu that Cao Cao preferred frugality to luxury. Harem? Dressed in gorgeous clothes, the guard only wore a pair of shoes. If the curtain screen is broken, repair it. Bedding is only for heating, and there is no decoration at all. Fu Zi also said that Cao Cao's daughter was married, but only ten people came from the maid.
Cao Cao's internal precepts also truly recorded his unremitting efforts to oppose extravagance and advocate frugality. I don't like beautifully decorated boxes, but I use a suitcase made of new leather. When there was no suitcase in troubled times, I made a square box out of bamboo, wrapped in silk and silk, and made a coarse cloth inside. This is what I usually use.
At that time, all the women in the palace were used to put boxes, and all my clothes and quilts had been damaged. They have used it for ten years, and they have to dismantle, wash and mend it every year. The true nature of advocating thrift is vividly on the paper.
Cao Cao's frugality really influenced his attitude towards the afterlife. He thought the custom of secular funeral was "complicated and useless", so he prepared clothes that died in four seasons before his death, put them in four boxes, and wrote the words "spring, summer, autumn and winter" to show the difference. His last words were "Don't offend, you can collect them at any time."
You can't send things like gold, jade, copper and iron. "In the twenty-fifth year of Jian 'an, he died in Luoyang on the 23rd of the first month. After his death, he wore the clothes he usually wore in winter.
Later, Cao Zhi wrote an "obituary" for his father, saying that Cao Cao personally selected the mourning clothes, which he usually wore; He didn't bring the seal into the tomb either, and it was stipulated that only ordinary hemp rope could be used to carry the coffin. Cao Zhi also recalled that his father advocated simplicity and frugality and never regarded pearls and jade as good things in his life. Under his influence, all people are proud of their simplicity. These are direct evidences of Cao Cao's call for thrift.
