Cao Zhi's character is the character of a talent. He often frantically wants to illuminate the world and gain real knowledge when he is drunk. Although Cao Cao appreciates Cao Zhi's talent, it does not mean that he will pass the throne to Cao Zhi. Because Cao Zhi is always unscrupulous. He either violated Cao Cao's ban after drinking, or rode in a restricted area that he could only exercise. Over time, Cao Cao has given up Cao Zhi and intends to pass the throne, because Cao Cao knows that only Cao Pi can continue his career.

Cao Cao wanted to anger Cao Zhi, but he didn’t get a chance. As a result, the opportunity came. Cao Zhi's wife Cui Shi met Cao Cao in gorgeous clothes. Cao Cao was furious. The reason he killed Cui was that his daughter-in-law, Cui, violated the frugal decree. He knew that Cui was Cao Zhi's wife. Killing Cui is actually hitting Cao Zhi's face, warning Cao Zhi not to be so brazen, there is no other way. Now killing your own daughter-in-law is to make your son careful not to make big mistakes in the future. So Cui was killed to warn Cao Zhi and pay attention.

Second, warn Cui Yan

Cao Zhi’s wife Cui is the niece of his courtier Cui Yan. In fact, Cao Cao killed Cui Shi to let Cui Yan see. He hoped that Cui Yan could restrain himself. Cui Yan is a versatile person. He has a strong body, a loud voice, a handsome face and a very solemn look. Therefore, the ministers of the court were in awe of Cui Yan. Even Cao Cao wanted him to make three points.

However, he did not stand with Cao Zhi on the issue of inheritance, because he always advocated supporting a legitimate leader, so he did not get involved in this storm, but because of his prestige in the court, Cao Cao was afraid of him.

Cao Cao wants to suppress Cui Yan, just Killed Cui Yan's niece, hoping to deter Cui Yan, but Cui Yan didn't seem to understand. Later, Cui Yan introduced a man to Cao Cao, his name was Yang Xun, but he didn't have much success. Although Yang Xun is honest and law-abiding, he likes flattering. Once, Yang Xun praised Cao Cao's achievements, blowing Cao Cao's virtue into the sky. Many people were dissatisfied with Yang Xun after reading this form. They think that Yang Xun is a villain. The person Cui Yan recommended was wrong. Cui Yan thought that Yang Xun was a powerful man and was very angry, so he picked up Yang Xun's play and read it. After reading the table, Cui Yan said: "Time is changing. As time changes, the situation will change."

It turns out that Cui Yan intends to criticize those who like to complain. Someone took the opportunity to report that Cui Yan was dissatisfied with Cao Cao and secretly cursed him. Cao Cao knew this and was dissatisfied with Cui Yan, so he stepped down to Cui Yan's official position. However, Cui Yan did not give in. He received guests in the same way as before, but there were dissatisfaction in his words. Cao Cao knew this and ordered Cui Yan to be killed. In fact, when Cao Cao executed Cui, he asked Cui Yan to be more careful, but Cui Yan didn't care. As a result, because of this little thing, he was executed by Cao Cao.
