Chapter 155 Who Can Be a Marquis?

The bright sunlight shines through the fresh green shoots on the top of the tree, making the yard transparent and bright, and even the dust floating in the air can be seen in small particles. The white butterfly fluttering up and down among the flowers and pavilions blends into the environment from time to time, making it difficult to catch its traces visually.

In the lobby, Chen Luo looked away.

Seeing Xiang Yu sitting next to him lazily, holding a glass of ginger salt water, he sipped it expressionlessly.

He couldn't help but joked: "The Overlord of Chu who galloped on the battlefield in the past, why didn't he gulp down strong wine today, and even drank ginger salt water? He has really recovered his health."

Xiang Yu glanced at him: "Then what's in your glass?"

Chen Luo coughed and said, "Spirited wine, first-class spirits."

"Come out and let me see half of it."

Chen Luo raised his glass and drank it all, put the glass on the table, and said confidently: "Brother Yu, could it be that he doesn't believe me!"

Xiang Yu: "..."

After a moment of silence, he thought for a while and said, "This is my house. When the servant poured water just now, it was for the two of us."

"Oh, that's it, hahaha, Brother Yu, I'm sorry, I forgot."

Looking at Chen Luo who was laughing awkwardly, Xiang Yu shook his head helplessly: "Okay, Yu'er often persuades me to quit drinking, but I seldom drink. You can laugh as much as you want. Anyway, I think you will have such a day sooner or later."

In the past three years, even if he has swept the world, who can believe what happened on the battlefield?
Maybe one day I will die under the cold arrow.

Therefore, after capturing a city, Xiang Yu was not a taboo about meat and vegetables, and drank spirits until he was very drunk. The main thing was to seek a happy heart.

It's different now.

The world has been settled, and I can live a stable life immediately, how can I mess with my body like before?
When people have concerns in their hearts, they will naturally no longer be fearless.

Even Xiang Yu, who used to have no taboos, is now being forced to give up drinking gradually.

Chen Luo didn't laugh at it, and said lightly: "Brother Yu is right. You only live for [-] days. If you live one more day healthy, you can spend more time with the people you care about."

Xiang Yu was thoughtful, then called his attendant and said, "Xiaoqing, fill us with ginger salt water."

When the waiter filled them both, he squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Now your glass is not 'spirited wine'. Let's talk about business."

Chen Luo nodded, and said most of the key points he discussed with Liu Bang and Xiao He yesterday, without hiding them from Xiang Yu.

"You mean that the King of Han wants to become emperor?" Xiang Yu's expression remained unchanged, and after a pause, "Since he has made this decision, then I admit that his title is Emperor, and I have no objection."

Now he is waiting to go back to Chu, his wife and children are hot on the kang, and he has no interest in political twists and turns.

Not to mention that Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor, that is, he proclaimed himself the "Red Emperor" and became a god on earth, and he would respond with "Ah, do it."

Seeing Xiang Yu's attitude, Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief.

My biggest worry is that it didn't show up.

Even though Chu State will probably be a semi-independent feudal state in the future, and Xiang Yu has core powers such as the right to appoint and dismiss officials, and the right to tax, according to the etiquette system, after Liu Bang becomes emperor, he will be one level higher than him.

He originally thought it would take some time to persuade Xiang Yu to accept this difference, and to prove that it has no effect on reality.

The result is that the current Xiang Yu doesn't care about this matter at all. Knowing that this matter will not affect his fiefdom in Chu State, he no longer pays attention to it.

Chen Luo rubbed his chin, then continued: "By the way, Brother Yu has a list of rewards prepared to be sent up?"

After the Chu army went west, there were not a few people who made enough military exploits to seal the title.

In addition, among Xiang's relatives, there are also many relatives with relatives.

Therefore, this list is separately distinguished from the vassals in the Han army, and Xiang Yu needs to draft and send it.

Although the specific rewards were issued by Liu Bang, the specific rewards were based on the content presented by Xiang Yu on the table, such as the order of the names from top to bottom, the degree of credit recorded, etc., all of which were particular about.

At that time, most of those people on the list will be sealed to Chu, and a small number of people will be sealed back to their original places, rich and prosperous, and blessed by their descendants.

Xiang Yu nodded slightly: "I have already prepared this."

He got up and went to the second bedroom to take out a scroll of silk books, handed it to Chen Luo and said, "Jiang Ning has a look and can refer to it for me."

Chen Luo took the silk scroll, unfolded it, and read it carefully.

Put your name on top.

"Chen Luo, the master planner of Chu, the unparalleled general of a warrior, has the merits of destroying Qin, beheading generals and seizing the flag with his own hands, planning the world, and destroying all countries. He has a great reputation and awe in the world. He should be sealed."

After reading this paragraph, he pressed down the corners of his mouth that were about to rise, and then touched his nose pretending to be a cover-up.

This is too blatant, and I am so embarrassed to boast.

He read down carefully, followed by Long Qi's name.

"Longqi, since Huaiyang County, has taken the lead in fighting the soldiers, made numerous military exploits, and won the top three armies. He is really a rare good general in the world, and he can be sealed."

The next line is Zhong Limei's name again, and then the names of Xiang Chan, Xiang Sheng, Xiang Ta, Xiang Zhuang and other relatives of the Xiang family.

After describing Xiang's clan, there are two "relationship households" next.

"Sima Xin contributed to dedicating the city in Handan, and later dedicating the city in Chu. In fact, we have many soldiers."

"Dong Yi is Sima Xin's follower."

Seeing the behavior of these two, Chen Luo couldn't help complaining silently in his heart.

I haven't fought a few battles with you, I just sacrificed the city.

In the end, it really made you offer a position.

If a certain general surnamed Li in later generations found out about this, he would be so angry that he vomited blood for three liters.

The group of people behind them made their military achievements with real swords and guns.

"Yang Xi, who was the first to ascend in Linzi, killed more than 20 enemy soldiers."

"Lv Matong, dispatching food and grass, was suddenly ambushed in the land of Zhao, and defeated [-] ambush soldiers with [-] miscellaneous soldiers..."

Even if judged with the harshest eyes, their credit is beyond reproach.

It was not easy for these people to survive the situation at that time completely. In the end, they abruptly turned the dead end into a victory.

With these credits, the gold content of their titles is definitely full.

"There are a total of 23 people in this scroll. Jiang Ning, do you think there is anything that needs to be revised? Or whose name needs to be added and whose name should be removed." Seeing that his eyes had moved to the end, Xiang Yu asked aloud.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Luo picked up the pen and turned to the first part of the silk book.

Then, under Xiang Yu's astonished gaze, he picked up a pen and crossed out his name directly.
