This article is the author's original, if reprinted, please indicate!

I have analyzed many things about Cao Cao. Let’s relax today and talk about a topic that many people are more interested in, Cao Cao’s wives. According to historical records such as "Three Kingdoms", there are 15 wives of Cao Cao. Of course, if strictly speaking, there are "two main chambers" (one of them is righted up later), and the rest are considered concubines. Let's talk about them one by one.

The first room: Mrs. Ding

This is the first person with a story. So in the end she forced Cao Cao to stop herself. She is the first wife that Cao Cao's Ming media is marrying, and she is a hometown of Cao Cao. As for when they got married, I can't find out. It should be before Cao Cao went to study in Luoyang Taixue. Since Cao Cao's mother is also surnamed Ding, some scholars have speculated that Mrs. Ding should be related to Cao Cao. As for whether or not it is, it is still unclear. However, it is well known that in addition to Yang Xiu, Cao Zhi also had two Ding brothers: Ding Yi and Ding Yan, both great writers. And the fathers of these two Ding brothers, named Ding Chong, were an important figure in the early days of Cao Cao, and he supported Cao Cao to welcome the Han Emperor. In addition, Ding Chong also had a clan brother named Ding Gong, who was once an official in the high position of Sikong.

From the above Ding family forces, it is clear that this Mrs. Ding is not from a small origin. Since Mrs. Ding did not give birth in her life, she raised Cao Ang, who was born to Mrs. Liu, Cao Cao's second wife.

The second lady: Mrs. Liu

Some scholars have speculated that Mrs. Liu was a maid brought by Mrs. Ding. Is that right? It doesn't really matter. The important thing is that she gave birth to three children to Cao Cao, the eldest son Cao Ang, Cao Shuo and Princess Qinghe (the eldest daughter). At first Cao Cao wanted to marry Princess Qinghe to Ding Yi, but Cao Pi was upset, and finally married Xiahoudun's son. So Cao Cao regretted it later, because Ding Yi was so talented and made Cao Cao very fond of it. Cao Cao said angrily: "Isn't it because his eyes are smaller? Even if he is blind, I should marry the eldest daughter. He is the good thing that Cao Pi, the bastard, broke me."

Mrs. Liu should be the first wife of Cao Cao to die, so Cao Cao’s eldest son, Cao Ang, was killed The wife grew up, and the relationship between mother and child was very deep. After Cao Ang died at the hands of Zhang Xiu to save Cao Cao, Mrs. Ding was furious and went back to her hometown, never ignoring Cao Cao again. Although Cao Cao went to invite him in a low voice, he didn't save it. In the end, Cao Cao had to follow Mrs. Ding's wish: to give up her. Then Fu Bian was positive. But Madam Bian still respects Madam Ding very much and regards her as the "eldest sister".

The third lady: Bian Shi (Empress Wu Xuan)

This is the second person with a story. I specifically introduced her earlier. Bian can be regarded as Cao Cao's wise internal helper. Although he was born as a singer-songwriter, in the initial turbulent period of Cao Cao, Bian followed Cao Cao, took care of Cao Cao's life, and handled many emergencies. For example, after Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo fell out, Cao Cao also fled without saying goodbye. All of a sudden, rumors of Cao Cao's death spread, causing many people who followed Cao Cao to leave. Bian said to them: "You left Cao Gong like this. If he doesn't die, what face do you have to come back? "Following, I comforted these people, and then handled housework properly.

Bian is also very good at birth: Cao Pi, Cao Zhi, Cao Xiong. These are all her children, an emperor, a talented man, and a general! It is said that Cao Cao will educate children. In fact, this is to put gold on Cao Cao's face. He is either fighting or fighting with so many opponents inside and outside the court. How can he have time to educate children? Isn't this a joke? Therefore, the credit for educating the children belongs to Bian! The above three are the three early wives of Cao Cao, especially Mrs. Ding and Mrs. Bian. These two should belong to everybody's lady, with good character, but no life experience, so she can't directly help Cao Cao, but behind her The power of the Ding family was an important force in the early days of Cao CaoOne of the amount.

The other is Bian. Because of her poor background, her understanding of life and the handling of interpersonal relationships are very good, so she is Cao Cao's true internal helper. Although there is no support from the forces, the three children that can be born are all very well educated by her. It can be said that the latecomer came to the top and was named "Queen" by his son Cao Pi.

The fourth lady is: Mrs. Du

The third person with a story, and her story is the most exciting. She was originally Lu Bu's general and Qin Yilu's wife, who was born with Qin Lang and lived in Xiapi. When Cao Cao brought Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others to attack Xia Pi, Guan Yu found Cao Cao and said: My wife has never had children, so after the attack, can you give Madam Du to me as a wife? Cao Cao agreed at the time. But Guan Yu was afraid that Cao Cao would have forgotten it, and later mentioned it many times, which aroused Cao Cao's curiosity. After breaking through Xiao Pei, he specifically suggested to see Madam Du. Cao Cao asked it for it himself. He loved it and treated Qin Lang as if he was his own.

So Madam Du should be the most beautiful of all the wives and concubines of Cao Cao. Because she was asked by Guan Yu, she is naturally second only to the Bian clan among Cao Cao's many wives and concubines.

The fifth ring lady

Next, the ladies of Cao Cao, I won’t go into details, let’s talk about a factor first. "Dear. Everyone knows that Cao Cao's favorite son is Cao Chong, because he is too smart. And Cao Chong's mother is called Mrs. Huan, from Xuzhou, Jiangsu. After Cao Pi became the emperor, she was named the "Tuofei", which was the fifth.

The sixth place is called: Mrs. Yin

She also married Cao Cao with her child. Her child is He Yan! She was the daughter-in-law of General He Jin. He Yan was one of the famous metaphysics pioneers in the late Three Kingdoms period. In the battle between Sima Yi and Cao Shuang, He Yan belonged to Cao Shuang's think tank, but unfortunately he couldn't match Sima Yi.

The seventh is called Mrs. Qin. The eighth is called: Concubine Chen. The ninth is called Sun Ji. The tenth place is called Li Ji. The eleventh is called: Zhou Ji. The twelfth place is called Liu Ji. The thirteenth is called: Song Ji. The fourteenth is called: Zhao Ji. The fifteenth is called: Wang Zhaoyi, Cao Qian's adoptive mother, from the title of Zhaoyi, her status is the lowest among these 15 people.

All of the above gave birth to Cao Cao’s sons, or brought up Cao Cao’s sons, and were able to leave their surnames. What is the end of these people? There are two contradictory sentences left by Cao Cao in the history books. One sentence is what Cao Cao once said: After ten thousand years of taking care of me, all of you and Cao should be married...that is, after Cao Cao's death, you can all remarry. But before he died, these people (including those who were not recorded in the annals of history because they were not born): My concubines and tricks are diligent, making the Tongquetai and treating them kindly. Yuxiang can be divided with all the ladies, not ordered to sacrifice. There is nothing to do in the homes, and you can learn to sell them.

The general meaning is: After the death of Cao Cao, you will learn female workers on the Tongque platform and support yourself. This is the ending of these Cao Cao's wives. Except for those who gave birth to sons, such as the Bian clan and Mrs. Huan, the rest are probably dead in Tongquetai.

That's all for today's content. If you want to know more historical stories, please pay more attention to me!
