Chapter 1354 A Gift

"Did Cao Pi finally become the crown prince? It can be said that the world line has been closed, haha!"

After reading the letter, Bai Feng smiled and said to Cao Jie.

Cao Jie was stunned when he heard this.

What does world line bandha mean?

However, Cao Jie was not very surprised that Cao Pi became the prince.

Because she knew the personalities of her two brothers very well.

Cao Zhi's character is generally more bohemian.

And likes to drink.

Perhaps this is also a negative problem caused by Cao Zhi's outstanding literary talent.

Cao Pi is more calm than Cao Zhi in character.

And there is a super old silver coin beside him to give him advice, so Cao Pi's behavior is more and more similar to his character.

Stability comes first in everything, and we work steadily and steadily.

This is also an important reason why even after Cao Zhi temporarily left Yecheng and went to the northwest to appease the disaster-stricken people at Yang Xiu's suggestion, although his image in the hearts of the Wei people was greatly improved, he was not Cao Pi's opponent in the end.

"Aren't you very surprised that Zi Huan became the crown prince?"

Bai Feng found it difficult to explain to Cao Jie what world line closing was, so he changed the subject.

"Well, Jie'er wasn't surprised at all."

"Because brother Zihuan and brother Zijian have different personalities, the more calm brother Zihuan has not performed much in front of his father in recent years."

"But brother Zihuan is very reassuring in his work. Jie'er thinks that this is why when brother Zihuan asked his father to assist him in handling government affairs, his father directly agreed."

Cao Jie then explained to Bai Feng why he was not surprised that Cao Pi became the prince.

Bai Feng smiled and nodded in agreement.

The fight for the crown prince's position was certainly not as simple as Cao Jie thought.

Although it does make sense that character determines destiny.

But behind the fight for the crown prince's position is a battle between two interest groups.

The old gentry group headed by Sima Yi fought against the new gentry group headed by Yang Xiu.

The final result is self-evident, all I can say is:

Older gingers are more spicy!

"What Jie'er said does make sense, hahaha."

Bai Feng smiled at Cao Jie and said that there is no need to explain the conflict of interest behind it now. In Bai Feng's opinion, Cao Jie will understand it later.

"Since Zihuan is already the crown prince, we have to prepare a congratulatory gift to send over. Let's do it in your name."

Then Bai Feng said to Cao Jie.

Now that the outcome of the prince's battle has been decided, Bai Feng naturally no longer has to worry about whether he will be involved in the prince's battle.

In order to buy Hanzhong and Yamatai more time to develop and avoid being besieged by noble groups prematurely, Bai Feng decided to send a big gift to Cao Pi.

"Congratulations? What do you want to give me, husband?"

Cao Jie asked curiously after hearing this.

Bai Feng's attitude towards the prince's dispute had always been to stay out of the matter.

And he never asked Cao Chong whether he wanted to compete for the crown prince's position.

Now that he is proposing to send gifts to Cao Pi, it is difficult not to arouse Cao Jie's curiosity.

"Since it is a congratulatory gift to the future emperor, it must be of some importance!"

Bai Feng did not answer Cao Jie directly, but continued to whet Cao Jie's appetite.

Some weight?

Cao Jie began to think after hearing this.

"Are you going to give the shares of the soap factory to brother Zihuan?"

In Cao Jie's view, the soap workshop shares that could bring them hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a year were a great gift.

Even Cao Pi couldn't be completely indifferent when faced with the soap factory shares.

After all, this money did not go into the national treasury, but fell directly into Cao Pi's own pocket.

"Hahaha, the soap workshop is all Jie'er's hard work. How can I use Jie'er's hard work to make a gift for Zihuan?"

Bai Feng couldn't help but smile at Cao Jie again after hearing this.

Cao Jie couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this. Bai Feng was right. This soap workshop was indeed his hard work. If he really gave away part of his shares to Cao Pi, Cao Jie would still feel distressed.

However, Cao Jie did not admit it.

"What are you talking about, husband? The soap workshop belongs to our family, and my husband's hard work is also included in it."

Bai Feng looked at Cao Jie's smiling pretty face and couldn't help but reach out and pinch Cao Jie's little nose.

"You still know how to talk, hahaha!"

Cao Jie gently patted Bai Feng's mischievous hand away, and couldn't help but say:

"Okay, okay, husband, please stop trying to show off. What kind of gift do you want to give Brother Zihuan?"

"Well, I want to give Zihuan a steam train!"

When Bai Feng saw this, he stopped joking with Cao Jie, so he said seriously.

A steam train?

This really exceeded Cao Jie's expectations.

Although a steam train is definitely not worth as much as shares in a soap factory when converted into silver.

But there are many implications.

"Husband, this gift is indeed big enough, but I think it's a little inappropriate, right?"

After thinking about it, Cao Jie couldn't help but said to Bai Feng.

"Huh? What do you think is inappropriate about Jie'er? I believe Zihuan will like it."

Bai Feng heard this and pretended not to understand Cao Jie's worries.

"My brother will definitely like it, but your husband should also consider your father's feelings!"

Then Cao Jie said to Bai Feng.

Cao Cao wrote to Bai Feng before, hoping to buy a steam train, but Bai Feng rejected it straightforwardly.

So Cao Jie thought that he only gave it to his brother Cao Pi, but not to his father Cao Cao. Is there any hint in this?

If his father Cao Cao thought that it was his husband Bai Feng who asked him to abdicate early and let his brother Cao Pi ascend the throne, that would be bad!

"Jie'er is right, but it is precisely because of my consideration for His Majesty that I chose to give a steam train to Zihuan."

Bai Feng, who knew Cao Jie's concerns, spoke slowly.

Now Cao Jie couldn't figure it out anymore. Did Bai Feng really want Cao Cao to pass the throne to Cao Pi earlier? !

After Bai Feng finished speaking, he saw Cao Jie's face change, knowing that Cao Jie was overthinking.

"Jie'er, there are two reasons why I didn't give it to His Majesty when he asked me for a steam train."

"First, there was only one steam train in Hanzhong at that time, and the efficiency of the mine would definitely drop significantly without it."

"Second, it was not the right time to give it to His Majesty. If I really gave His Majesty a steam train, then your two brothers would see that the relationship between His Majesty and I had eased again. How could they choose to give up my support in the fight for the position of the crown prince?"

After Bai Feng's explanation, Cao Jie suddenly realized and said:

"So that's it! Jie'er understands."

"I believe that my father and brothers will like this gift!"
