Chapter 450 General Tiance!
When Lu Xuan returned to Yangzhou, it was already the end of August.
The weather in the south has faded the heat of summer and the refreshing autumn.
Lu Xuan and his party took a boat along the Yangtze River all the way west. When Lu Xuan returned to Shu County again, it was already September.
At this time, the autumn weather is clear and refreshing.
Lu Xuan returned to Shu County and was also excited. After he returned to the city, he asked someone to take Zhao Yun to the military camp to accommodate soldiers, and then asked someone to take Gongsun Du to the Ministry of Personnel to go through the process, so he went straight back to the royal palace.
Lu Xuan had just rested and before he could take a breath, Lu Xun came and reported: "Uncle, the court sent Yang Biao as an envoy to Shu County to commend you for the meritorious destruction of Wuhuan and to enthrone you as the general of the universe. Yang Biao is still in the city, after all, you have not come back and cannot promulgate the edict."
When Lu Xuan heard this, his face couldn't help but thrust.
The Universe General!
This title sounds so great, but in fact, it is not a good title.
For example, the General of the Cavalry is flocked by military generals because it is supreme glory. For example, the three dukes such as Situ, Taiwei and Sikong are mostly honored, but civil officials are flocked by them because this is a lifelong pursuit.
The official position of the Great General of the Universe appeared once in history. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Hou Jing, who was rebellious in his mind, created his own self-proclaimed self-proclaimed.
In history, Hou Jing first followed General Erzhu Rong, the general of Tianzhu, and became a general in the country.
Erzhu Rong was killed, Hou Jing betrayed the Erzhu family and surrendered to Gao Huan, who slaughtered the Erzhu Rong family. He was respected by Gao Huan and was appointed as the governor of Dingzhou and became an important official of Northern Qi.
After Gao Huan's death, Hou Jing betrayed Northern Qi again. He wanted to defect to Yuwen Tai at first, but was rejected by Yuwen Tai. In the end, Hou Jing led his army south to Nanliang to join Emperor Wu of Liang Xiao Yan.
After Hou Jing surrendered to Xiao Yan, he was granted the title of King of Henan and General, and was appointed as the commander of the military and political power in Henan. Soon after, Hou Jing launched a rebellion and killed Jiankang in the Liang Dynasty imperial capital, broke Jiankang, imprisoned and starved Xiao Yan to death.
Immediately afterwards, Hou Jing proclaimed himself the General of the Universe and soon established the country and became emperor.
During the Northern and Southern Dynasties, betrayal, plotting and shamelessness were the norm. The despicable human nature and the shamelessness of those in power evolved to the extreme. Hou Jing's betrayal was normal at that time.
However, Hou Jing rushed to Jiankang City, slaughtered the large clan of officials, and allowed soldiers to plunder them, making Jiankang City a purgatory on earth.
Later, Hou Jing was defeated by Chen Baxian. When Hou Jing ran away, he was killed by his subordinates. His body was pickled and dismembered and sent back to Jiankang. He was thrown on the street. The people directly robbed and eaten. The bones were burned into ashes and mixed in wine.
Countless people hated Hou Jing.
Hou Jing's head was also cooked and air-dried and painted, and placed in the arsenal. As for Hou Jing's eldest son, he was peeled and cooked to death, while the other four sons were castrated and cooked to death, and the ending was miserable.
Lu Xuan naturally didn't want to use the cosmic generals who had used Hou Jing.
This is not a good omen.
You have to change to a better one.
Lu Xuan thought for a while, looked at Lu Xun, and ordered: "Notify Zhang Zhao, Lu Su, Gu Yong, Jia Xu and Pang Tong to discuss the matter and discuss the title of the court."
"Here!"
Lu Xun got the order and turned around and went to notify him.
Not long after, Zhang Zhao, Lu Su, Gu Yong, Jia Xu and Pang Tong entered the study together and bowed.
Lu Xuan waved his hand to let everyone sit down and said directly: "The court sent Yang Biao to issue an edict to add the title of General of the Universe. What do you think?"
Zhang Zhao was quite excited and said without hesitation: "The title of King, the General of the Universe, is unprecedented. This is also because the King destroyed the Wuhuan, wiped out the Hu people, and established unprecedented merits, so that such a reward was achieved. I believe that it should be accepted."
"inappropriate!"
Lu Xuan denied it completely.
He said in a deep voice: "I can accept the reward from the court. However, the general of the universe is not good, so I am going to change one."
Zhang Zhao was stunned.
He quickly thought about why the king denied it. Do you think the general of the universe is not majestic enough?
This is already majestic enough.
Throughout history, there has been no general of the universe. Suddenly, Zhang Zhao's eyes lit up. He felt that he had thought that the king believed that the general of the universe was a imperial decree from the court and could not show his majesty. They had to choose a title and give it to the court to arrange it. Only in this way would one go and go, be able to be majestic enough.
That's it!
Zhang Zhao felt that he had thought of the key point in an instant.
Zhang Zhao has always been quite confident in naming, saying loudly: "The king wiped out Wuhuan, established unparalleled achievements, and wiped out the invincible hands of the world. I suggest that the title of Invincible General is the meaning that the king is invincible. Even Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are not the opponents of the king."
"not good!"
Lu Xuan shook his head.
He looked at Jia Xu, Pang Tong and others and asked, "Are there any better suggestions?"
Pang Tong said: "I have an idea."
Lu Xuan said: "What's your thought?"
Pang Tong looked expectant and replied: "The king's unparalleled achievements are invincible in the world. Since the cosmic general is not needed, he is called the Universe General."
Lu Xuan twitched his cheeks when he heard this.
The Universe General is too indifferent.
Lu Xuan waved his hand and said, "Shi Yuan, your idea is very good and very novel, but I won't consider it for the time being."
Pang Tong smiled awkwardly and stopped talking.
Jia Xu said: "The old minister has a suggestion."
Lu Xuan looked expectant and said, "Wenhe has always been a mature and polite. I have always believed in you. When it comes to the title given to me by the court, you should be cautious and not too rough."
Jia Xu said seriously: "The king is the King of Wu, the emperor's title. The king's title should be accompanied by the word Tian, starting with the word Tian, to show the king's reputation and identity. The king attacked Wuhuan, attacked him unpredictable, unexpectedly, and had complete plans, and then took another word "英英"
"The old minister suggested that the king should use the title of General Tiance."
Lu Xuan's eyes lit up.
General Tiance, this is similar to that of a certain General Tiance in later generations.
This is good.
Lu Xuan made the final decision and said directly: "It's decided, so use General Tiance. Let's go down. I will see Yang Biao."
"Here!"
The crowd retreated.
Lu Xuan changed into a new dress, wore a nine-stamped crown, and a crown garment of a prince. He met Yang Biao in the hall. Not long after, Yang Biao entered the hall. When he saw Lu Xuan again, he couldn't help but sigh.
The last time I came to issue an imperial edict was to grant Lu Xuan the title of King of Wu. At that time, Lu Xuan only dominated the south. Now Lu Xuan has established Youzhou in the north and wiped out Wuhuan, and his reputation has become even greater.
Yang Biao bowed and said, "Yang Biao, the envoy of the Han Dynasty, pay homage to the King of Wu."
Lu Xuan smiled on his face and said, "Mr. Yang, you and I are not outsiders, please sit down."
Yang Biao shook his head and said, "King of Wu, I will issue the imperial edict from the court first and ask the King of Wu to accept the imperial edict."
Lu Xuan said: "The title of General of the Universe is too big, I can't bear such a title. So I won't accept the imperial decree."
Yang Biao's expression changed slightly and he tentatively said: "Why is the King of Wu refusing to receive the imperial edict is dissatisfied with the court and wants to make things difficult for the court?"
Lu Xuan did not accept the imperial edict. No matter what the reason was, the court did not commend him. People all over the world would criticize the court and say that the court rewards and punishments were unknown.
Furthermore, many scholars will criticize it.
Yang Biao was worried and speculated in his heart, would Lu Xuan have to use his merits to destroy Wuhuan to break up with Cao Cao and openly become emperor?
When Lu Xuan saw Yang Biao as if he was facing a great enemy, he smiled and said, "Mr. Yang, I am not refusing, I just change one. Go back and tell Cao Cao and give me the title of General Tiance. General of the Universe, I think Cao Cao is the most suitable and let him take charge of it."
call!!
Yang Biao breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, Lu Xuan was willing to accept the order and recognized the court, which was very good.
Yang Biao also thought it was inappropriate to grant Lu Xuan the title of General of the Universe. Because General of the Universe was too big and full, he did not take the emperor seriously at all. Your official positions broke through the sky and were all generals of the Universe. Where can the Han Dynasty tolerate you?
I don’t know what those Xun Yu thought about it?
General Tiance is good!
Look at Lu Xuan, he still respects the royal family and the Han Dynasty very much.
As for Cao Cao's re-printing of the edict after he went back to report, Cao Cao might be in a dilemma. That was Cao Cao's business and he didn't care.
Yang Biao smiled on his old face and said, "Don't worry, King Wu, I will return to Luoyang immediately. Please ask Cao Cao to re-arrange it to ensure that the King of Wu is satisfied."
Lu Xuan said, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Yang."
Yang Biao shook his head and said, "Everything is for the Han Dynasty, I will not work hard."
He bowed to Lu Xuan and left in a hurry.
Lu Xuan looked at Yang Biao's leaving figure and breathed a sigh of relief. He could take a breath for the time being. He changed into a normal dress and headed to Da Qiao's yard in the backyard.
