The most poisonous person in the Three Kingdoms, Boss Cao advised me to calm down!

Chapter 429: Is there a hidden meaning behind the title of Zhengxi?

At this time, Cao Zhang, who was standing by, also hurriedly stepped forward upon seeing this.

He knelt down like Sima De, clasped his fists and said:

"Father! I think Renda's actions are a little beyond the rules, but they are understandable!"

"If the barbarians dare to offend the Han people, their country will be destroyed first and then their race will be exterminated!"

"This is a very good move! I agree with it very much!"

"Renda's actions can really demonstrate the power of our Han nation!"

"If father insists on punishing Renda, I am willing to take the blame for him!"

After saying this, he lowered his head and prepared to wait for Cao Cao to punish him.

When Cao Cao saw this, he felt quite helpless.

This bastard, I haven’t said anything yet.

You're just going to act like your brother-in-law has suffered, right?
If I really do that, I will punish you severely in front of everyone.

Wouldn't that chill the hearts of all the civil and military officials present?

What's more, it made the Yamatai envoy difficult to improve himself and made a fool of himself?
After all, Sima De's move was moderate and flexible.

It not only demonstrated the cruelty towards the rude Hu Yi people, but also observed the etiquette of the officials of the superior country.

His insight and courage probably impressed everyone present.

At the moment, the only feeling in the viewers' minds is probably emotion.

Sima Shaoqing's tactics are so ruthless that no ordinary person can match them!

Especially the sentence that Cao Zhang echoed at the end.

If any of the Hu people dare to offend the Han people, their country should be destroyed first and then their race should be exterminated!
Such impassioned speech was truly an awakening to everyone present.

This is exactly the majestic and domineering spirit that the sons and daughters of the great Han Chinese should possess!
Such inspiring and heroic words.

Compared with Chen Tang's previous letter to Emperor Yuan of Han.

The famous saying that has been passed down through the ages, "Whoever offends the mighty Han will be punished, although they are far away," is no less true.

In the silence of the room, those who heard it felt only excitement and admiration.

Even a thousand years later, Cao Cao could foresee it.

These words will surely be praised by future generations.

And that's all, what's there to be punished for?
When he thought of this, he no longer blamed Sima De for his inappropriate behavior.

On the contrary, if he were not restricted by his status, he would have wanted to stand up and applaud!

But on the surface, Cao Cao's tone was calm. He said:

"That's all. It's the greatest virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them."

"Let's keep this in mind for now."

"When the meeting is over, I will discuss this with you in detail."

"You two should get up and return to your seats!"

He admonished Sima De lightly.

Then his gaze was like a blade, slashing towards the trembling Yamatai envoy Nan Shengmi.

"Your Excellency, it's your deputy's fault."

"He has been killed by one of my subjects. I will not pursue the matter."

"As for you..." Cao Cao changed the subject and shouted:
"Come here! Beat this Hu envoy with a stick and drive him out of the city gate of Xudu!"

"Give him a five-foot-long sword and a bronze mirror."

"Tell him to bring it back and tell the queen."

After saying this, Cao Cao waved his sleeves, unwilling to waste any more words.

Although Nan Shengmi wanted to beg for mercy, he was unable to open his mouth.

Xu Chu, who was beside Cao Cao, was striding forward.

He threw the rice out of the hall as easily as carrying a chick.

"You wait for the lord to teach him a lesson!"

Before leaving, Xu Chu gave stern orders to the tiger guards outside the door.

Upon hearing this, the tiger guards immediately gave orders to drag him into the courtyard.

A moment later, the Yamatai envoy Nanshengmi wailed.

It was accompanied by the dull sound of sticks hitting.

It resounded through the sky, gradually became weaker, and finally became silent, and then he fainted.

The Tiger Guards remained indifferent, as if they were dragging a dead object.

He was dragged out of Duke Wei's mansion.

At this time, Cao Cao was sitting on the main seat.

The expression on his face was also quite complicated.

Originally, he was going to meet the envoy from Yamatai today.

They planned to take advantage of this opportunity of foreign countries coming to pay tribute.

To boost his prestige as Duke of Wei and pave the way for him to become king in the future. At the same time, he was testing his three sons.

Unexpectedly, Sima De's interference turned it into a farce.

But then again.

Sima De just dealt with it that way.

It has achieved part of its purpose.
Wait until the sound of the rice completely disappears.

In the lobby, Cao Cao seemed to have just come out of his thoughts.

Back to the present, he just opened his mouth and said:

"You are just a barbarian envoy. You have delayed my efforts for so long."

"Let's put this matter aside for now and discuss the matter of rewarding the three armies first."

As Cao Cao finished speaking.

All the ministers present nodded in agreement.

So, here is the next content of this meeting.

It was Xun You who came out to preside over it.

Discuss how to evaluate the military achievements of various generals last year.

There is also the issue of how to place the various troops and the establishment of military farms in various places.

The content that follows is naturally unremarkable.

Overall, the whole meeting was over.

Everyone got a reward, more or less.

However, few people can be promoted to higher positions.

Like Sima De, he is still among the Nine Ministers today.

And he already holds the title of Marquis of Chaoge.

So even though he has made so many contributions since last year.

He only received a large amount of gold, silver and other valuables as rewards.

After all, he was a veritable marquis.

Nowadays, it is really not easy to add more fiefs.

You can't submit a petition to the emperor and ask him to continue to be conferred the title of duke or marquis, right?
Even if the emperor was willing to promote Sima De to the rank of Duke, he himself would not dare to accept it!

If that were the case, wouldn't he be on equal footing with his father-in-law?
If Sima De were to take over the reins in such a way, he would be courting death!

However, his official position remained unchanged.

However, Cao Cao was in the process of drawing up a list of rewards.

He expressed his intention to submit a memorial to the emperor, asking for the appointment of his foolish son Cao Zhang as General of the Western Expedition.

This decision immediately attracted the attention of many people present.

Even Sima De was almost yawning from boredom.

I was also shocked on the spot!
You should know that Cao Zhang had previously been named General of Yue Cavalry by Cao Cao.

As the name suggests, this position means being the commander of a cavalry unit.

One of the eight battalions of the Northern Army of the Han Dynasty was the Yueqi Battalion.

Its chief officer was called the Captain of Yue Cavalry, who commanded nearly a thousand elite cavalrymen.

Therefore, Cao Zhang's original title of General of Yue Cavalry was slightly stronger than that of a colonel.

But he was just a general of miscellaneous title.

And now that he has returned, he says that he wants to appoint his son Huang Xuer as the General of the Western Expedition.

This not only made Cao Zhang ecstatic, but also made him kowtow to express his gratitude on the spot.

Many of the people present had complicated expressions.

After all, he is one of the various important generals in the Han Dynasty.

There are four expeditionary generals and four garrison generals, and the official positions of the four expeditionary generals are higher than those of the four garrison generals.

Moreover, the four generals in the expedition had a rank of two thousand stones, which was below the three dukes.

Next in line were the general, the general of cavalry, the general of chariots and cavalry, and the general of guards.

Such a reward from Cao Cao cannot be considered too great.

Moreover, this General Zhengxi has a special meaning.

Cao Cao's life goal as a general was to become the General Who Conquers the West.

In his previous order "Let the County Clarify Its Intentions".

There is also the wish to "make meritorious services to the country by defeating the enemy, and to be granted the title of marquis and the title of General Conquers the West".

This is a motto that expresses one’s attitude towards life.

Now, he suddenly wants to recommend Cao Zhang to conquer the west.

I don’t know, is it to encourage Huang Xu’er, or does it have some other meaning?
