Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 363 General Faqiu! (4200)

It was Wu Liang's flattery that really captured Boss Cao's heart.

Compiling a more authentic and accurate history book than "Tai Shi Gong Ji" will definitely have a profound impact on future generations. If this book can be written, it will be named after him.

Then it is certain that his name will remain in history.

Boss Cao is actually a person who values ​​fame very much. He was often discriminated against and criticized by those nobles and celebrities because of his background as a eunuch. In order to silence these people, he also ordered many people to be killed. Played a positive role, but brought some bad effects.

For example, this time Zhang Miao rebelled. Although Boss Cao refused to admit it, he knew better than anyone else that this was caused by the negative impact of the murder.

Writing history books is quite different.

This more authentic and accurate history book than "Tai Shi Gong Ji" has irreplaceable value, and will be sought after and sung by the gentry all over the world in the future, and his name will also be known to the gentry all over the world together with this history book, which is a benefit With the merits of thousands of generations, at that time, how many people will care about his life experience after the eunuch?
Moreover.

Sima Qian, who wrote "Tai Shi Gong Ji", suffered corruption in his early years and had already become an eunuch. How many people in later generations care about his eunuch status?
What's more, I'm just a descendant of the eunuch, it's not something I can choose...

Thinking of this, Boss Cao was also a little excited, and said with a smile: "Since you have such ambitions, I should have written to the imperial court to make you a 'Tai Shi Ling'. In my eyes, you are my son-in-law, but you have already stated that you do not want to be an official in the court. He has become 'General Si Shi Zhong Lang'."

Hemp egg!

How the hell did he become "General Si Shi Zhong Lang" again?
What about "Faqiu Zhonglang Jiang" and "Faqiu Yin"?

Although after getting the "Taigong Seal", Wu Liang already suspected that it was the legendary "Faqiu Seal", but he still had a little bit of expectation in his heart.

But now Boss Cao has mentioned the military ranks of the two miscellaneous Zhonglang generals in a row, but he has never mentioned "Faqiu Zhonglang general".

Wu Liang couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and also a little impatient.

Could it be because my appearance and actions have changed the direction of history?
If I hadn't forced the transformation of the Huan army, Boss Cao would still have to rely on the gold and treasures obtained from the Huan army's tomb robbery to maintain his salary. Would the result be different?
After all, in the so-called "faqiu", "fa" means "excavation", and "qiu" means "grave".

The combination of the two characters means "digging the grave".

But now, thanks to Wu Liang's efforts, Boss Cao finally said that he wanted to make Huan Renjun "righteous", so "Faqiu", which is not accepted by the world, naturally cannot be associated with Huan Renjun and him. Together, otherwise, I'm afraid it will cause a lot of criticism.

and so……

"Why, you are not satisfied?"

Seeing Wu Liang frowning slightly and not thanking him for a long time, Boss Cao asked suspiciously.

"My subordinates dare not!"

Wu Liang came back to his senses and hurriedly worshiped, "How can the subordinates be dissatisfied with Duke Ming's promotion of his subordinates so much? It's just that I was a little awkward when I first heard the rank. 'Si Shi' sounds like a civil official, and 'Zhonglang' Will' sounds like a military officer again, and when the two are put together, there is some feeling of contradiction."

"Hahaha, I did this on purpose."

Boss Cao looked at him sideways and laughed loudly, "You can excavate the ancient tomb that escaped death for me, and also compile history books for me, isn't that just proficiency in martial arts? Besides...you have to think clearly, Sima Zichang's "Tai Shi Ling" is already the peak of historians, and he belongs to Taichang. What choice?"

"It's better to be General Zhonglang, thank you Minggong."

Wu Liang hurriedly bowed and thanked.

"That's right, from now on, you will search for ancient sites and ancient books in various places, and strive to record the affairs of the past and present as they are. No one can interfere with you, and the book does not need to be published to others before it is written, even I am no exception. "

Boss Cao nodded in satisfaction, and then said, "As for whether gold and jewelry can be unearthed during the excavation of the ancient tomb, I will not force it anymore, you will do your best."

"The subordinate understands that he will live up to Duke Ming's high expectations!"

Wu Liang responded.

Up to now, he still doesn't know how to induce Boss Cao to say the five characters "Faqiu Zhonglang Jiang", so he can only comfort himself that the "Taigong Seal" is the legendary "Faqiu Seal".

Now that he already has the "Faqiu Seal" and has been promoted to "General Zhonglang", it can barely be counted as a reappearance of history.

Unexpectedly, Wu Liangcai had just finished comforting himself, but Boss Cao suddenly laughed and said to himself: "I think I have been blocked everywhere since I started the army, and everything is not going well. Only in the past half a year, that is, the secret establishment of the Huan army When the tomb of King Liang Xiao was excavated, not only was he a talented general, but everything he encountered could be turned into good fortune. This is how we are today. Recently, I have been thinking about what I have now. Everything is made in Qiu, referred to as 'Faqiu'."

? !
Hearing this, Wu Liang's heart trembled suddenly.

Appeared!
The word "Faqiu" finally appeared!

So, isn't the "General Faqiu Zhonglang" he's been thinking about all this time completely hopeless?

And the so-called "Faqiu" does not actually mean "discovering ancient tombs", but does it mean "making a fortune in Qiu"?

"You are talented, you need to be wronged."

Boss Cao turned around, patted Wu Liang on the shoulder again, and said earnestly, "One day when I quell the turmoil in the world and no one dares to criticize me, I will definitely not forget your contribution. You are 'General Faqiu', a first-rank official, and I will make your ambition public, and make a decree for you, stipulating that only you have the privilege to excavate ancient tombs in the world, and anyone who excavates without permission is a death penalty. I want to help you Complete this history book that will benefit generations to come as soon as possible!"

Faqiu... General?

Wu Liang was stunned.

The key point is the first-class official residence!
Who are the first-rank generals that appeared in the Han Dynasty?
General Jianwei, General Hussars, General Chinese Army, General Zhendong, General Fujun...

Except for the Hushi General, the remaining first-rank generals are all above Sangong, that is to say, they are almost second only to the emperor, and in the true sense, one person is below ten thousand!
and also.

legislation?

It is stipulated that only you have the privilege to excavate the ancient tombs of the world, and anyone who excavates without permission is a capital offense.

This is somewhat similar to the decrees promulgated by later generations, but the details are still relatively rough, and it has the legislative characteristics of feudal monarchy.

this moment.

Wu Liang finally understood Boss Cao's ambition.

He wants to be called emperor!

If he hadn't become the emperor, how could he be granted such an official position?
In history, the reason why Boss Cao didn't proclaim himself emperor was because he became the prime minister, not because he didn't want to, but probably because the time didn't come.

After all, although Boss Cao has "taken the emperor to command the princes" in history and completely controlled the weak Han Dynasty in his own hands, there are still many internal and external troubles in fact.

"Proclaiming the emperor" is definitely not a matter of one sentence, nor is it a child's play.

This will involve the interests of many people, especially the interests of those deeply rooted veteran nobles. Once Boss Cao proclaims himself emperor, it may turn into an unresolvable internal conflict, which will affect Boss Cao's plans.

What's more, Boss Cao is still a direct beneficiary of "holding the emperor to command the princes".

This move is tantamount to controlling the mouthpiece of the world and mastering public opinion.

People who dared to proclaim themselves emperor before without knowing how much they weighed, such as Yuan Shu who dared to proclaim himself emperor after taking a handed down jade seal, did not end well, but became the target of public criticism.

With the lessons learned before him, Boss Cao must be extremely cautious in this matter...

But Wu Liang didn't really care about this issue.

Anyway, the demise of the Han Dynasty is inevitable in history. Although Boss Cao never proclaimed himself emperor, Cao Pi did. Later, Liu Bei also became emperor, and Sun Quan also became emperor.

He was mainly thinking about another question.

Faqiu... the general.

One product.

What is certain is that Boss Cao never set up the official position of "General Faqiu" in history, otherwise it would not be an understatement in the history books.

After all, according to Boss Cao's current statement, this official position will be a high-ranking official, a high-ranking official who can shake the entire government and the public three times with a stomp.

How come there is no record?

On the contrary, it was written as a small "General Faqiu Zhonglang" in the official history?
Also.

Boss Cao must have never promulgated the "tomb robbery by order" decree.

Promulgating such a decree in this era is simply a rebellion against the world, and it is destined to receive a lot of criticism and doubts. It should be known that even later generations of archeology will do "rescue excavations", that is to say, only when the ancient tomb has been exposed. And when it has suffered irreversible damage, it will enter the site for archaeology, otherwise protection will be the main focus.

Therefore, if such a decree ever appeared, it is absolutely impossible not to leave traces in history.

but.

It is undeniable that in the history of the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wu Liang, a traverser, never appeared. Perhaps it was because of his appearance and disrupting the situation that Boss Cao came up with such an idea...

In fact.

Wu Liang didn't doubt that Boss Cao's statement was sincere.

But he will not easily believe it.

If Boss Cao really became the emperor one day, and really became the ninety-five king who overlooked the world, he would not believe it even more.

This moment, that moment.

The ass decides the head.

The person sitting in that seat may not really be able to do whatever he wants, on the contrary, he will have more worries and thoughts.

Taking history as a mirror, Boss Cao's current promise may become a reminder for him when the time comes.

After all, there is nothing new in the history of "a cup of wine to release military power". Several of the founding emperors of the past dynasties have never done similar things. How many of those founding heroes came to a good end?

and so.

If one day really arrives at that time.

Boss Cao insisted on giving it, of course he would not refuse.

But if Boss Cao doesn't mention it anymore, then he will never reach out for it, and even try to keep a low profile as much as possible.

Think so.

"Thanks to Minggong's love, my subordinates were born as ordinary people, and they are used to hard times. They don't really think much about fame and power. They just want to do some small things for Minggong. In exchange for a lifetime of food and clothing, they will be satisfied. I really can’t think of anything else.”

Wu Liang bowed to thank him, and said with a low eyebrow.

"I have made up my mind, there is no need to talk about this matter!"

Boss Cao waved his hand and said unquestionably.

"Thank you, Mr. Ming."

Wu Liang had no choice but to agree, and thanked again.

He knew in his heart that from now on he had officially entered the camp of Boss Cao's direct lineage, a true direct lineage, and was qualified to know the direct lineage of Boss Cao's ultimate ambition.

Xi Zhicai is naturally one of them, otherwise, when Boss Cao said those words just now, he would not be qualified to be present, nor should he be so calm.

But Cheng Yu, the current prefect of Chenliu, was obviously not among them.

This time Boss Cao came to Chenliu. As the prefect, Cheng Yu was actually just accompanying those Chenliu nobles for a cutscene...

"By the way, Duke Ming, this subordinate suddenly remembered something and wanted to ask Duke Ming to fulfill it."

Wu Liang suddenly said again.

"Why?"

Boss Cao was in a good mood and asked straightforwardly.

"This subordinate wants to ask Ming Gong to help save the next friend."

Wu Liang bowed his head and said, "This person is Zhu Lu, the third son of Chenliu's Zhu family. When his subordinate served as Yongqiu Commander, he wanted to test the effect of the 'Tuntian System' in Yongqiu, so he tricked Zhu Lu with clever words. Lu, so that he not only did not obstruct his subordinates from reclaiming the fields, but also provided food, agricultural tools and livestock for the refugees recruited by his subordinates, so that with his great assistance, his subordinates were able to successfully complete the spring plowing. Unfortunately, this matter was later revealed. Zhu Xun, the Patriarch of the Zhu family, was furious, and has already put Zhu Lu under house arrest. He fears that he will never be able to get out again in this lifetime, and his subordinates are really sorry, so they plead for him."

"Is there such a thing?"

Hearing this, Boss Cao immediately looked surprised.

"No wonder that Zhu Xun gritted his teeth with hatred for you. I'm really curious, what kind of tricks did you use to lure this person into this field..."

Xi Zhicai was also taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but said amusedly.

"Xi Sima was joking, it's not that my methods are so clever, the main reason is that this person is not very clever here."

Wu Liang tapped his temple, and said with a smile of "you understand" to the two, "It's also because of this that this subordinate feels more and more sorry, and dares to ask Minggong for help."

"It's not a big deal, it's just that it belongs to the Zhu family's family affairs. I'm afraid it's not fair for me to interfere with it."

Boss Cao frowned slightly.

"My lord, I have an idea."

Xi Zhicai said again intently.

"Oh? Tell me and listen."

Boss Cao raised his eyes and said.

"Didn't the envoy give the Zhu family a Diannong school lieutenant before?"

Xi Zhicai said with a smile, "Since this person is a member of the Zhu family, Junda can appoint him as the captain of the Diannong school. In this way, the promise to the Zhu family has been fulfilled, and the Zhu family can no longer embarrass him."

"Absolutely not!"

Wu Liang immediately raised an objection when he heard the words, "Maybe Xi Sima didn't understand what I meant, I mean this person's brain is not very bright, I'm afraid he won't be able to take up the post of Lieutenant of Diannong."

"That's why I strongly recommend this person."

Xi Zhicai showed a sly smile like an old fox, and said earnestly, "This is a plan that kills two birds with one stone. First, it satisfies General Wu's wishes; second, the person in this position does not need to be very smart, because this person has no brains." On the contrary, it is easy to control, so that Jun just uses him to control Chen Liu's farming affairs, wouldn't it be beautiful?"
