Cao Shuang's Takeover | Sima Yi's Coup Let's Talk Lore E08

[@SeriousTrivia]

After basically dropping not one, not two, but three episodes in roughly a 24 hours span, I am going to up the likes required to *400* for the next episode to drop! It will be the infamous coup itself or the Gaopingling Incident, so hopefully that will motivate a few more people to hit that like button!

[@OnlineCasinoDaily]

We are waiting for the next episodes

[@SeriousTrivia]

And it’s scheduled for the premiere!

[@ApostleOfDarkness]

Sima Yi already faked his way out of employment from Cao Cao once already, he had decades to hone his skill of being sick

[@spartan2051]

You know his sick time is running low.

[@shinsenshogun900]

He is indeed the true employment evader of the Three Kingdoms!

[@panzerschliffehohenzollern4863]

Isn't unemployment considered distastful in Chinese society?

[@nobblkpraetorian5623]

Yeah Cao Shuang is pretty much becoming Dong Zhuo 2.0. No wonder Sima Yi's coup got a lot of support.

[@thatscottkid_]

The next part’s my favourite 😈 Wishing Li Sheng all the best on his promotion in Bing Province lol

[@twelve4682]

next episode is gonna be the epic quote by sima yi "i only swing my sword once to take over the empire, but i honed my sword for decades!" even tho its not a historical quote but i still found it cool😂

[@vidfreak727]

Chinese history is quite remarkable!

[@billyvue98]

Idk the answer for the question on this video but I do have a fun fact about Cao Fang in ROTK 13 though. He’s the only underage character you can play as in the game since he appear in 239 as an 8 year old compare to most other characters who appear when they’re 16 year old. But Koei fucked up big time because they didn’t put a restriction on marriage or having children for Cao Fang when he’s only 8 year old lol.

[@joe718gt4]

That would have been interesting to see what the fate of the other states would be had Cao Shuang eliminated the Sima clan.

[@alantanmiaothong635]

oh, that's early morning for me. Have a good night, I will see you in the morning! Karma knocks on Cao Rui's grave as his first choice for regent basically usurps his son, isolates his wife and now encroaches on his throne. This is why you sometimes separate good friends and good colleagues because these are not mutually inclusive. Sima Yi realized that the time for the Cao clan was declining, and decided to make use of the adage of the Art of War: be as a silent as night, but attack as suddenly as lightning.

[@Killerbee4712]

The reason there is a 400 like goal is so Serious Trivia actually has time to fully flesh out the episodes lol, 300 is too easy.

[@quicochines7492]

He must be tired.

[@historian252]

And thus the stage has been set. Cao Shuang has basically messed himself up.

[@thvl2018]

me before this series: how could Cao Shuang doesn't have any failsafes? me after this series: yeah he had it coming

[@quicochines7492]

Almost there friends! Let's go to the 400 👍👍

[@victorhino26]

Really don't know the answer to that question but just gonna guess it to help the algo: over-indulgence on wine and woman 😅

[@Aspiringamoeba1997]

Its time to see angry sima yi

[@martinmarigomen2767]

I guess hunting and writing since he was always in hunting trips

[@ossas590]

Serious trivia, I cant remember the video where you talked about a court official that sun quan pranked by dragging him out of his in the middle of the night just because he refused to acknowledge that he's scared of sun quan

[@SeriousTrivia]

Zheng Quan was the one who got pranked

[@ossas590]

@@SeriousTrivia thanks for the answer. I'll assume zheng quan has different chinese character

[@SeriousTrivia]

郑泉 (Zheng Quan) quite a famous Wu drunk. Yes, different characters from 孙权 (Sun Quan)

[@tonys9397]

Cao Shuang really messed up everything 🤦‍♂️

[@The3ndFan]

I came in too late, but yay another one

[@jamesthach2504]

Hey Serious Trivia, 1.What year you believe Sima Lun was born according to Advisors Alliance he was a Toddler in 227 AD and a Young Adult in 251 AD. 2. Any Records on how fat was Cao Shuang? And for some reason in three kingdoms 1994/2010 and Advisors Alliance they never cast a Big actor for him and was he around the same weight as Dong Zhuo?

[@SeriousTrivia]

1. While his birth year is not recorded, we know he was the ninth son. The seventh son was the last one to have a recorded birth year and it was 232 so Sima Lun have to be after that. 2. No idea the actual weight.

[@jamesthach2504]

I see make sense.

[@orirotem2298]

cao shuang leveled up with his 🤡🧠❌ he had the chance to get rid of the sima clan and prevent the coup he had his rival powerless or atleast with minor power who cant really harm him but he missed it and his behavior alienated him and made him hated this will bite him in the future... why he had to do it ?? why to lose golden opportunity???

[@alantanmiaothong635]

greed blinds you to the bigger picture, pride keeps you from admitting it. In the end, all tyrants are fools who failed to secure their own lives while bartering for wealth and power.

[@captainmurphy4720]

COME ON! WE NEED 50 PEOPLE WHO WATCH BUT DONT GIVE THE LIKE TO GIVE THAT FREE CLICK SO WE CAN GET A NEW VIDEO SOONER THAN WE DESERVE IT! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?

[@kamenriderfourze2358]

I'm surprised the game where winds meet coverage on your channel.

[@SeriousTrivia]

I am not very confident about the game and I know they are doing a playtest that starts today. We will see when it officially releases.

[@kamenriderfourze2358]

​@@SeriousTrivia what about it has you worried or unsure?

[@SeriousTrivia]

its overly ambitious and Chinese studios rarely can deliver on that type of promise
