Love and excellence
In 226, Cao Pi, Cao Lin's father, died, and Cao Rui, Cao Lin's brother, ascended the throne. Because of Cao Pi's last wish, Cao Rui doted on Cao Lin more than other Cao's clansmen. But Cao Lin's temperament was rough, and he did much harm to his maidservants, concubines and concubines.
In August of the fifth year of Taihe (231), Cao Rui issued an imperial edict, saying that he had not seen all the princes for 12 years. He ordered all the princes and the princes of the clan to bring their own sons to Beijing to meet them. In the future, if the young master was in power and his mother and empress were in the palace, Cao Pi's imperial edict would be followed. Cao Lin should be among those who came to Beijing.
In February of the sixth year of Taihe (232), Cao Rui issued an imperial edict to change the title of princes and kings, all of whom took the county as their country. Cao Lin was renamed king of the East China Sea in the same year.

Things behind me
Cao Lin passed away on December 27, the second year of Jiaping (February 5, 251). His posthumous title was "Ding", and his son Cao Qi succeeded to the title of King Donghai.
In the fifth year of Jiaping (254), Cao Fang was abolished. Cao Lin, Cao Pi's son, had the closest blood relationship with Cao Rui, the emperor of Wei and Ming Dynasties. Cao Mao, Cao Lin's son, noble Xiang Gong (Cao Lin's eldest brother in Wei Lue), was elected emperor. Cao Rui once issued an imperial edict in July 229, the third year of Taihe reign, forbidding the son of the great Xiaozong to pursue and respect his parents as emperor. Cao Lin did not have any record of pursuing and respecting them.
Main impact
Cao Lin changed his title many times in his life, and his title was reduced from county king to county king, and then returned to county king, reflecting the characteristics and adjustment of Cao Wei's clan policy. Cao Wei severely banned the imperial clan: all kings were enfeoffed in the name of territory, but without the reality of the state; all kings must leave Beijing for the state, and be supervised by the defense assistant and the state supervisor; all kings were often convicted, and were not allowed to be employed, and their posts were imprisoned.

Historical evaluation
Chen Shou: rough sex. Wei's princes were not only in the name of land, but also in the name of country. They were also in prison. Their titles were fixed, and their ages were different. They were kind and kind. The meaning of Tangdi was abolished. This is the root of the law!

Character controversy
Controversy over the year of death
The biography of Cao Lin in the annals of the Three Kingdoms records that Cao Lin died in the first year of Jiaping (249), but the annals of the Three Kingdoms records that Cao Lin died on the first day of December in the second year of Jiaping (that is, the 27th day of that month, February 5, 251). Zizhitongjian adopts the theory of "three Shaodi Ji". Lu Bi also pointed out in the collection of the annals of the three kingdoms that the records in the annals of the three little emperors are accurate to the month and the day, which is more reliable.
About the boudoir
According to the biography of Cao Lin in the annals of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Lin had a rough temper and harmed the family members. Li Dongfang, a scholar, thinks that if the record is true, it may be one of the reasons why he failed to inherit the throne of Cao Rui. However, Li Dongfang questioned: "it's strange that the law governing the imperial clan in the Wei Dynasty was very strict. Even if the county officials were beaten, they would be punished, not to mention" maiming "the" maidservant concubines "? Why is there no record of Cao Lin being punished for this? "
