Character life Cao: Zijian. From childhood to 65,438+00 years old, Ying Hui read hundreds of thousands of words in poetry, prose and ci, which won the favor of Cao Cao. Cao Cao once thought that Cao Zhi was the most important of all the philosophers and wanted to make him a prince several times. However, Cao Zhi's behavior was laissez-faire and repeatedly broke the law, which caused Cao Cao's anger. However, his brother Cao Pi was quite pretentious, and finally gained the upper hand in the struggle to establish a reserve army. He was made a prince in the twenty-second year of Jian 'an. In the twenty-fifth year of Jian 'an, Cao Cao died of illness, and Cao Pi succeeded to Wei and soon proclaimed himself emperor. Cao Zhi's life has changed fundamentally since then. He changed from a noble prince who lived a leisurely life to an object that was restricted and hit everywhere. In 226 AD, Cao Pi died of illness, and Cao Bentao fooled Wei Mingdi. Cao is still strictly guarded and restricted, and the situation has not fundamentally improved. Cao Zhi moved to Chenjun several times during Wen Ming II 12, and the last fief was in Chenjun. Cao Zhi died on February 27th, 65438+February 27th, 232, so he was later called or Chen.
Cao Zhi and his poems are the main fields of Cao Zhi's literary activities. The content of the early stage and the later stage is very different. Early poems can be divided into two categories: one is to express the leisure life of his noble prince, and the other is to reflect his feelings of the times when he was born in troubled times and grew up in the army. In his later poems, he mainly expressed his grief and indignation under repression, and expressed his desire not to be abandoned and his desire to make contributions to the world. There are more than 80 poems by Cao Zhi. Cao Zhi has many innovations and developments in the art of poetry. Especially in the creation of five-character poems. First of all, most of the ancient poems in Han Yuefu are narrative, and it was not until Nineteen Ancient Poems that lyric elements occupied an important position in the works. Cao Zhi developed this trend, and organically combined lyric and narrative, so that the five-character poems can not only describe complex events, but also express tortuous psychological feelings, greatly enriching its artistic functions. Cao Zhi is also a master of Jian 'an literature, which has a great influence on later generations. In the Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, he was promoted to the position of article model. Xie Lingyun, a great poet in the Southern Dynasties, is even more full of praise: there is only one stone in the world (dàn), and there are eight fights with the sword. When I fight, the world is divided into one fight.
His wife and daughter, Cao Zhi, married two wives in her life. After his ex-wife Cui Shi was a noble family, his brother Cui Yan was a minister of Cao Wei and was once trusted by Cao Cao. Cui Shi was ordered to go home by Cao Cao and was sentenced to death for violating the system of clothes embroidery. Soon, Cui Shi's brother Cui Yan was executed for speaking disrespectfully. Some people say that Cui Yan's death is related to her sister's death. Cao Zhi's later wife, Xie, was once called a princess in history books. She was Cao Zhi's companion in his later years. It is said that she lived to the age of 80 in the Jin Dynasty. Cao Zhi had two sons, the eldest, Cao Miao, who was once named Duke of Levin and died young. The second son, Cao Zhi, was named "Xianggong". He is rare and eager to learn, so he stands out. Cao Zhi praised him as the protector of the Cao family. After Cao Zhi's death, Cao Zhi succeeded to the throne and moved to Jibei King. After Sima's usurpation, Cao Zhi was demoted to Juancheng County and later served as the magistrate of Leping. He moved away, rode as an official servant and doctor of Guo Zi, and later turned to a doctor to provide wine. Taikang died in nine years, and he was named Ding Gong. Cao Zhi also has two daughters, which are occasionally mentioned in his works, but the details are unknown.
Cao Wenzhi Cao Tao was in his teens. Speaking of hundreds of thousands of words, he is good at writing. In the fifteenth year of Jian 'an, the bronze sparrow terrace built by Cao Cao in Yecheng was completed. He called a group of scholars to pay tribute on the stage, and Cao Zhi was naturally among them. Of all the people, Cao Zhi was the only one who put pen to paper with a little thought. He was the first to hand in his paper, which was called "Ode on the Stage". When Cao Cao saw it, he praised it greatly. At that time, Cao Zhicai 19. From then on, Cao Cao, who has always attached importance to talents, had the idea of breaking the old rule of standing long and not standing young and handing over the throne to Cao Zhi, the son of all-rounders in civil and military affairs. Therefore, Cao Cao is particularly fond of Cao Zhi and has told people around him many times that I want to be an heir. Who would have expected that Cao Cao's idea, instead of bringing any blessing to Cao Zhi, caused him endless pain later, which made him invisibly involved in the whirlpool of competing for the prince.
