Can I get to the other side?.

Chapter 15: Conferring the title of Grand General! Conferring the title of Grand Commandant!

The Emperor's Palace was built a long time ago.

This palace was originally built by Yuan Shao as a residence for himself, but because the "Son of Emperor" Liu Xie came, he changed the palace into the Son of Emperor's Palace.

In order to speed up the progress, Yuan Shao recruited thousands of laborers to build the palace day and night. He did this, of course, to make this "imperial court" in Yecheng look more presentable.

After all, the emperor cannot always live in his mansion. This is against the rules. When the Han ministers who come to pay homage to the emperor see him, they will think that he is disrespectful to the emperor, which is not what he wants to see.

At present, the construction of the annex palace has been almost completed.

"I didn't expect that I couldn't afford a house in my previous life, but now I can own a villa of my own in ancient times."

Liu Xie shook his head, feeling that it was somewhat absurd.

At the same time, an idea came to my mind.

Now that I have a separate palace, can I start a harem?
It's normal for the emperor to have a group of beauties in his harem, right?

But Liu Xie quickly drove this thought out of his mind.

"Liu Xie, Liu Xie, how can you be so superficial!

You are now the emperor of the Han Dynasty, shouldering the mission of restoring the glory of the Han Dynasty and building the Han Dynasty for the third time! From today on, abstain from sex!"

Liu Xie reflected deeply, felt heartbroken, and ashamed of his thoughts.

But he quickly changed his mind...he seemed like a fake emperor. What did restoring the glory of the Han Dynasty have to do with him?
Could he really go head-on with Boss Yuan and Boss Cao?

"That's okay."

Liu Xie's thoughts suddenly became clear and he felt happy.

Now he no longer has the passion and ambition that a time traveler should have. For him, it is good enough to be able to survive in this era.

As for competing with those heroes of the Three Kingdoms, just forget about it.

……

After Ju Su left Liu Xie's courtyard, he went to Yuan Shao's study to report to him on the progress of teaching Liu Xie.

"My Lord, we have now made him fully master the etiquette of speech. He has also memorized all the records of the Emperor's daily life and can answer questions fluently."

"However, the etiquette of behavior still needs some time to be trained, but I believe it will be completed soon."

Ju Su bowed slightly and told the story of Liu Xie.

"understood."

Yuan Shao didn't care about it, but wrote something on the desk, "You came at the right time, I just happened to have something to discuss with you."

"Look at this."

Yuan Shao put down the brush in his hand and said to Ju Su.

Upon hearing this, Ju Su walked forward, picked up the piece of paper on the desk, and looked at it carefully. After a while, he showed a look of surprise.

"My Lord, is this... an imperial edict?"

Ju Su looked at Yuan Shao with some surprise.

The piece of paper in his hand was an imperial edict of enthronement, an edict issued in the name of the emperor.

"Yes."

Yuan Shao nodded, put his hands behind his back and said, "Since I have the title of the emperor, I must use it. I plan to issue an order in the name of the emperor to take the position of general."

The title of general is the highest honor and position for a military officer! In name, his position is equal to that of the Three Dukes, but in reality, it is even higher than that of the Three Dukes!
Because the Generals of Cavalry and Chariots and Cavalry, who were below the General, were both comparable to the Three Dukes, the position of General was more valuable.

In the history of the Han Dynasty, there are three most famous generals: Han Xin, Wei Qing, and Huo Guang. It can be said that they are truly second to none!

And now, Yuan Shao plans to enthrone himself as the general in the name of the emperor!
"My lord, would it be inappropriate to take the position of general directly? You should know that there is still controversy in the world as to whether the emperor is in Xu County or Jizhou. If you take the position of general, I am afraid it will attract criticism."

Ju Su was worried. The position of general was of great significance and many people were watching him.

Becoming a general means that you nominally have the power to command all the troops in the world and become the highest authority in the military!
"What's wrong with that? When I was fighting against Dong Zhuo, I was already promoted to General of Chariots and Cavalry by various princes. Now it's just a step further."

"The position of general has been vacant for a long time. If I don't take it, am I waiting for Cao Cao to take it first and take it in the name of the emperor?"

Yuan Shao’s idea was different from Ju Su’s. He felt that his promotion to general was a natural thing.

When the eighteen princes had previously led an expedition against Dong Zhuo, he was the leader of the alliance, and all the provinces and cities unanimously agreed to his promotion to the rank of General of Chariots and Cavalry, but the emperor had not approved of him.

Now that I have the emperor at my disposal, I can legitimately be promoted to the rank of general.

Seeing that Yuan Shao was determined, Ju Su stopped trying to persuade him. However, he was surprised by another title in the imperial edict.

"You still want to appoint Yuan Shu as Grand Commandant?"

The Grand Commandant was one of the Three Dukes and was in charge of military affairs.

But since Yuan Shao had already appointed himself as the general and in charge of all military power, and appointed Yuan Shu as the grand marshal, wasn't it obvious that he wanted to suppress Yuan Shu?
Yuan Shao stroked his beard and smiled, "After all, Gong Lu is my brother, and he is also a descendant of the Yuan family. How could I forget him?"

"But after thinking it over, I think the position of Grand Commandant is more suitable for him. In this way, he will be under my control from now on."

"Besides, I issued the decree in the name of the emperor. How could he not obey?"

Yuan Shao had selfish motives in giving Yuan Shu this position.

This way, he could avoid being accused by his clan members of not helping his brothers, and secondly, he could suppress Yuan Shu.

"Lord!"

Ju Su shook his head decisively and said solemnly: "This is absolutely not allowed. There is already a grudge between you and Yuan Shu. If you act like this, he will probably hate you even more!"

"Why not change the position of Grand Commandant to Minister of Works or Minister of War, and so on..."

But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yuan Shao.

"No need, I have already made up my mind, let's do it, I will promote him to the rank of Grand Commandant. Doesn't the position of one of the Three Dukes mean him any injustice?"

Ju Su was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to persuade him.

Because this was a private matter between the brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, it was not easy for him, as a minister, to interrupt.

"By the way, how is the construction of the Emperor's Palace going?"

After the enthronement ceremony was finalized, Yuan Shao asked next.

Ju Su collected his thoughts and replied, "From the looks of it, the construction is almost complete, and Your Majesty will be able to move to the other palace soon."

"It's easier for him."

Yuan Shao snorted. He had originally intended to use this palace as his residence, but now he had given it to this fake emperor as a palace.

"Transfer one thousand men from the army to the other palace to serve as the imperial guards."

"As for the commander of the imperial guards...let Zhang He take the position."

Yuan Shao thought for a while and said that Zhang He was a general under Han Fu, the former lord of Jizhou. As he took Jizhou, Zhang He naturally became his subordinate.

However, he did not trust this new general very much and did not know how to make arrangements with him.

It is appropriate to let him lead the imperial guards now, and others cannot accuse him of nepotism.
