"...... fame spreads to infinity. I am envious of it, but now I am going to follow Yao's example, and give it to the king of Yan."
The content of the imperial edict is not long, but only called Liu Xie listened to a lot of torment, there is the feeling of days like years.
After reading the book, the dust has settled, he also breathed a long sigh of relief, sadly accepting the reality that the ancestral foundation has changed hands, and his glory is no longer there.
The hundred officials under the altar did not give him a second glance, that is, they shouted long live to Lu Bu, and bowed down deeply and obediently to perform the eight great salutes according to the rituals.
Lu Bu calmly accepted the worship of all the officials, and stepped down from the high altar without any haste, and formally ascended to the emperor's throne, which symbolized the supreme power, in the midst of the front and back of the crowd.
But this new emperor, did not let the ministers to take a breath, and thundered three decrees in a row.
On the first course, he amnestied the whole world, established the state name as Yan, and renamed the year as Chongguang.
In the second course, Lü Liang was established as the Crown Prince.
In the third course, seal Yan Qing as the King of Qi.
Of course, Lu Bu didn't treat the other veteran officials who had faithfully followed him in his conquests in the south and north over the years and made great achievements, and all of them were rewarded according to the records on that screen.
Just they again, it is impossible to be Yan Qing jumped into the dragon, even from the position of the big Honglu, directly among the king of the different surnames for the immense honor and favor.
However, Lu Bu's favor to Yan Qing was just the beginning. The granting of a royal title was one thing, and immediately after that, he promoted him to the position of prime minister, which now not only attracted envy, but also a lot of eyeballs.
The title of the king is no longer glamorous, but when Lu Bu "forgot" to give Yan Qing a fiefdom, it was only a superficial honor.
But the position of Prime Minister is so important, so is it not giving the real power and the king's title to one person at the same time?
If Yan Qing is to rely on such favoritism to wreak havoc, or even have a different heart, it will bring endless trouble to the world's living beings!
The people who worked with Yan Qing under Lu Bu's command had no objection to this, and each thought that Yan Qing's seniority and merits were well deserved.
But those in the court only hindered by the world's troops and horses in the hands of Lu Bu, not good to open the mouth of the magistrates can no longer hold back, and hardened their heads have to submit, pleading with the new emperor to take back the orders of this hooliganism.
In their eyes, of these three decrees, only the second one was still appealing to the eye.
In the candidate for the crown prince, Lu Bu fully learned the lessons of Yuan Shao, Liu Biao, and even Emperor Ling of Han Dynasty, and did not hold an ambiguous attitude, but before the extensive harem, he resolutely gave the status of heir to the only son who is not related by blood, but is recognized as a wise and intelligent man.
Whether it is the establishment of Yan Qing table word for the year, or will he be the only king of different surnames, or to establish him as a prime minister, these honors and favors single out, are enough to highlight the holy favor.
If it's given at the same time, it's overkill anyhow.
Lu Bu was determined to do so, and did not budge an inch.
They advised him bitterly, "Yan Qing started out as a village boy in Nagasaka, but because he was lucky enough to follow a wise ruler, he was rewarded with all the riches of the world, and then he was promoted to the position of a minister, so how could he ever ask for more? To give too much will only bring disaster!"
Lu Bu smiled indifferently, said: "The Secretary of the House of this is not good! You think this move is not possible, but if there is no re-lighting, I am still a fierce fight of the bit lowly swordsman, all day long muddle-headed, only know to dance robbing stick just."
"Heavy light and I walk together, comb wind and rain more than ten years, during the period of trouble with each other, solidarity, repeatedly for the cloth to travel thousands of miles, personally involved in dangerous places! This kind of payment, the grace is the same again, how can you treat it as idle?"
"He is a lot of wisdom, good at planning, with a high degree of integrity, but the nature of humility, to recommend the virtuous, know the people to make good use of, the implementation of the imperial examination, educate the people. He only pushed the credit to others, seldom self-importance, good with people, make friends with the wise ...... so, the party welcomed the gentleman full of dynasty, he is also loved by all the people, living in a high position and do not attract cynicism."
"You only see me give him gold and silver treasures, brocade silk, silk, how do not see his body is not long, the family does not have a lot of money, the proceeds of all have been donated, used to care for orphans, build avenues, for the students to establish bright bookstore, for the generals sewing winter robes? Even the salaries you receive, I'm afraid there is also a share of Chongguang!"
Wordsmiths looked at each other, not nah nah nah, half a long time without saying anything.
They did, indeed, not know that Yan Qing was so two-sleeved and high-minded.
Lu Bu, ever since he found out that Yan Qing had dispersed his family's wealth and used it all for the public good, he tried to hold back his false ignorance and did not publicize it until this critical moment, when he violently threw out his bottom card, and knocked them all off their feet.
Seeing them show shame, Lu Bu without hesitation chose to pursue the victory, said forcefully: "If there is no heavy light, not to say that you are afraid of still in deep water, the altars of earth and grain is also precarious, the world of the living as ruminants! With his monumental achievements, great feats, not to mention just the title of King of Qi, Prime Minister, even if I have to be half of this dragon chair in him, and he shared the kingdom, he is also deserved!"
It was only a pity that Yan Qing was unable to hear in time about Lu Bu's stone-cold remarks and his arrogant style of fighting with the tongues of the scholars.
What the world doesn't know is that Yan Qing is actually the one who has the most headache from Lu Bu's generous reward.
In his lifetime to see Lu Bu on the throne, he thought he had realized his long-cherished wish. The power is also abundant, under the banner of a lot of talent, wise ministers and fierce generals, as many as the crucian carp, there is no lack of him to assist.
Come to think of it, history is already so different that it's impossible for the three kingdoms to emerge, and it's no longer possible for him to continue to take advantage of the situation with his knowledge of history.
And excluding this one, the others he is good at, it's not really that he can't find enough people to replace him, maybe a bit less efficient, but in any case, it's not necessary for him to do everything to keep the situation solid.
It is a good time to retire in a hurry, retire early to enjoy happiness, while at home to raise fish and walk the birds, while accompanying the hard work of the emperor Lu Bu gags, while waiting for Lu Xun will be grandchildren born out by him to tease the good time.
As a result, Yan Qing didn't even have time to act, Lu Bu wishfully wanted to hold what he thought was the best in front of him, naturally letting his fantasy of a long life completely go out the window - not to mention fading out, in this kind of hospitality, Yan Qing has been pushed into the limelight without compromise.
This "high merit does not shock the master, the ruler and ministers without suspicion" heart is certainly touching heaven and earth, but Yan Qing more feelings, or want to cry without tears.
He never dreamed, Lu Bu these days night not return home, is to hold such a big move waiting for him. Knowing that he will oppose, deliberately not discuss with him, played the hand first decapitation, shocked the four seats in the morning court, including unprepared him, called the courtiers were scared jaws.
What's more, due to Lu Bu's stubbornness, this quickly developed into a formal encounter between the newly appointed emperor and the old school of courtiers, and if he was not successful, and the first order of the king was suppressed by the group of courtiers who pursued the orthodox system, then Lu Bu would be vaguely passive when he practiced any other political theory in the future.
When Yan Qing thought about this, it was not good to hastily excuse himself, lest he degrade Lu Bu's prestige.
Of course, he as the source of this argument, it is not easy to participate in, in order to avoid the wind, he simply sue for illness, ten days and a half months did not go to the morning court, in the House of leisure, until the matter of the conclusion of the fight.
What Yan Qing doesn't know is that he doesn't speak or argue, but it doesn't mean that the cadre of civil officials led by Guo Jia and the gang of military generals led by Zhao Yun will honestly stand by and watch.
Not even waiting for Lu Bu's signal, they flocked to the battlefield, one race after another aggressively, and soon called the opposition unbeatable and quickly lost the battle.
When Lu Bu won a great victory, he immediately declared Yan Qing to enter the palace.
After listening to the spirited Lu Bu roughly recounting what had happened, Yan Qing incredulously repeated the last sentence, "In the future, I will also live in the palace?"
Lu Bu nodded his head and rightfully said, "After all, in the future, it is not good for Bu to go out of the palace without anything, and it is not polite to live in that mansion of Shiguang again."
Yan Qing was instantly dumbfounded.
Indeed, according to Lu Bu's logic, rather than letting the emperor find a reason to live outside all day long, it would be more 'reasonable' for him to first be named a king with a different surname, change from a foreign subject to half of the royal family, and then forcibly move into the palace.
It was only at this moment that Yan Qing realized that there was actually a huge difference between the two men's thought processes.
While he was still feeling sad that 'he will have to live separately from Lu Bu from now on', and couldn't help but cherish every time he slept together as a countdown lately, Lu Bu was the one who had never considered the possibility of them not living together from the beginning, and was very positively sold on the solution.
Yan Qing reviewed himself slightly before asking, "Dare I ask how Your Majesty convinced them?"
Lu Bu smugly said, "This is a long story, if Chong Guang wants to know, allow Bu to slowly explain."
It turns out that Lu Bu, in order to ease the worries of the pedantic old ministers, logically proposed that Yan Qing not be released to the fiefdom of Yangzhou, but rather, on the grounds of the prime minister and the title of the king, to create a new hall in the palace, far away from the harem concubines, so that Yan Qing would become the first king of a different surname to reside in the palace for a long period of time.
This decree sounded absurdly bizarre and unthinkable, but Lu Bu had cunningly used the 'open window theory' to turn a tricky puzzle, hard and fast, into a score-giving question.
After first blowing the group of ministers out of the water with the two edicts that sealed the king of a different surname and the prime minister, and after making a strong statement, he first labeled Yan Qing with his words, and then immediately put forward the horrifying intention of 'dividing up the world equally', so that they would understand that the situation could actually get worse.
Unlike Han Gaozu Liu Bang who, when dividing his old brothers into lords and kings, said he would share with them the great result of 'the world' but then turned his back on them, killing them all in order to centralize power, Lu Bu was serious about implementing this idea.
The new dynasty has just been established, if we really follow Lu Bu's nonsense, the huge territory will be split into two before it is united?
As soon as they heard this, they immediately protested, gibbering so much that they were on the verge of making a racket.
Lu Bu knew very well that if he had suggested at the outset that Yan Qing should be allowed to stay in the palace for a long time, he would have attracted their stern opposition.
So cleverly, first to disrupt their thoughts, call them confused, and then quickly throw out the most unlikely to be accepted point, and then, when the group is excited, take a small step back, pretending to make a compromise.
Since they are afraid of Yan Qing's hand in the hands of heavy power, fear of mischief, then may as well let Lu Bu soft detain him in the palace, under the eyes of the surveillance, in this way, Yan Qing simply can not go to the fiefdom, since it can not pose a threat.
Yan Qing quickly figured this out and was shocked by Lu Bu's sophistication and shrewdness.
When he looked again at Lu Bu, who was wearing a dragongon tattooed with nine incoming dragons, but had a silly face and was just staring at him with a happy face, he was made to feel numb by the great contrast.
However, Yan Qing soon realized that something even more frightening awaited him.
Lu Bu, whose excitement apparently hadn't passed, didn't know the thousands of emotions under Yan Qing's calm demeanor, and suddenly got up, pulling out a set of new robes from a clothes drawer as if by magic, and said with great interest, "Can Chong Guang try on this, so that he can let Bu take a look at it?"
"Where did it come from?"
Yan Qing's heart greasily gave birth to a not-so-fabulous premonition, wisely refraining from acceding to this tiny, pathetic-sounding request for the moment, receiving the robe and abruptly unfolding it.
This was clearly a gown that perfectly conformed to the emperor's regulations, and although due to the limitations of the material, it was not as expensive as the coronet that Lu Bu wore today, it was also golden, gorgeous, exquisite, and splendidly noble.
When I touched it, I could certainly feel a slight difference, but just by looking at the style, it was undoubtedly exactly the same as the one Lu Bu had worn.
Yan Qing's face darkened.
The biggest problem is that the robe, obviously, is sewn to your own measurements.
It must be Lu Bu this guy has been planning for a long time, since he likes to see him wearing coronation clothes, he privately ordered the embroidery girl to rush to make it overnight, just to satisfy the unspeakable dirty desire.
