Lu Dynasty

Chapter 690 Feng Gong
While Liu Bei was entangled with Gan Ning and Cai Mao, a major event happened in my Luoyang.This morning, I just woke up.Although I am used to being a hands-off shopkeeper, due to years of martial arts practice, I rarely sleep in late.Once the time is up, it will automatically wake up.After waking up, I habitually went to the school field to practice martial arts.When I came to the school grounds, I found that someone was already waiting for me. After a closer look, it was Guo Jia. If he was said to be here to practice martial arts, I wouldn't believe it if he was killed.Guo Jia saw my doubts and said with a smile: "There are some important things to discuss today, I'm here to invite the Lord to go to court early!" Looking at Guo Jia's expression, I was a little strange.However, he rarely took the initiative to ask me to go to the morning court.There must be something important to visit in the early morning, so I went to court with him.

Guo Jia led the way and brought me to Weiyang Palace. We usually stay in the Xuan Room in the morning. After all, the Xuan Room has always been the place where the emperor of the Han Dynasty summoned his courtiers.Entering the Weiyang Palace, I saw that the furnishings in the palace were not much different from those in the Proclamation Room, except that under the emperor's dragon table, a small table was added next to the seats of Lu Bu and me, and there was still tea on it.Seeing me arriving, Liu Bian immediately smiled and asked me to sit down.I saw that all the civil and military personnel of the Manchu Dynasty had arrived, and I felt that there must be something important. After saluting Liu Bian, I sat on the chair on the left hand. Liu Bian nodded to the servant next to him and said, "The prime minister is here, let's announce the decree." !"

What Liu Bian said confuses me. Nothing has been discussed yet. What is the purpose?I looked at Guo Jia, but Guo Jia smiled wickedly, which made me very depressed.Just as I was about to stop it, Lu Bu smiled at me and said, "Don't worry, brother, this is His Majesty's kindness, please listen first before you speak." Since Lu Bu said it was a good intention, it seems that he also knows what's going on.I believed that he would not harm me, so I nodded and sat down!
The servant saw that I had no objection, so he took out a roll of yellow silk and read: "The emperor of the Han Dynasty said: There is a prime minister, Lu Feng, who works hard for my Han Dynasty to suppress rebels, recruit foreigners, and establish immortal feats. He is the Duke of Qin! His younger brother, Lu Bu, has extraordinary martial arts skills, and he has contributed a lot to the battle with the Prime Minister. Now he is specially named Duke Liang, and the rest of the generals and civil servants will all be rewarded, and the prime minister will distribute the titles. This is yours!"

"Secret Duke!" I gasped, but I knew that in history, Cao lost one of his most important schemes in order to become Duke, and that I was killed by the emperor and ministers without my knowledge. Forcibly conferring a duke, which makes me feel a little incredible, but I can't accept it. Even if I want to accept it, I have to decline three times before accepting it. This is a common practice, and it is also a face-saving project.I stood up and bowed to Liu Bian and said: "Thank you for your kindness, but I just did my part to maintain the majesty of my man. I think this is what every Han person wants to do, but the minister is the first. As for my brother, Lu Bu, he is already a great general as a mere man, he is already in a state of fear and incompetent, or he is the Duke of Liang with a small merit, wouldn't it make the world think that I, the Lu family, have the heart of disobedience? Please also Your Majesty takes it back!"

"Brother!" Lu Bu became anxious immediately. He pulled me and was about to say something, but I gave him a fierce look. Seeing my eyes, Lu Bu knew that I was angry, so he shrunk his neck quickly and sat back down again.It's just that he still doesn't understand and is a little angry at my behavior.

Guo Jia knew that I would not agree, he nodded to Liu Bian, Liu Bian waved again, and the servant took out a scroll of imperial decree from behind and read: "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty said: Prime Minister Lu Feng, Great General Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo made rebellion, made immortal feats for the great Han, saved the saint from danger, and helped the imperial court collapse. Now, in order to reward him for his meritorious service, he specially named the prime minister Lu Feng as the Duke of Qin, and the general Lu Bu as the Duke of Liang. If you don't go, you won't be famous! This is it!"

Now I have a headache. Looking at the posture, Liu Bian and Guo Jia are obviously trying to drive the ducks to the shelves.Generally, canonized edicts are issued every few days, but they actually issued two copies in a row.Needless to say, as long as I decline, there will be a third edict waiting, and this third edict will definitely be more generous than the previous two.But the cutscene still has to go, if I can't even do the minimum three words, the dead Yuan Shao will laugh at me for being too impatient!In desperation, I had no choice but to resign, and as I expected, there was a third imperial decree waiting for me in the servant's hand, except for the previous two Dukes of Qin and Duke Liang, who went to the palace with swords, entered the court without tending, and praised In addition to not being named, Jiuxi was added!Looking at the proud Guo Jia, Lu Bu, and Liu Bian, I sighed.Others want to be a duke, and if they want to add Jiuxi, they will force the emperor, but I was kicked out of the duck, which is really dumbfounding.In fact, for me, it is enough to be a prime minister to handle internal affairs and military affairs. I don't care about official titles, especially those that are hereditary.Future generations have their own blessings, if I leave too many things, but future generations are not wise enough, it will harm my own descendants instead!Unfortunately, in this feudal era, no one thought so. Liu Bian and others were very happy to see that I had taken over the title.However, since Guo Jia and the others plotted against me, I can't make it easier for them. I will hand over the rewards of the hundred officials to them!Guo Jia was helpless, and worked hard for a few days to sort out the awards of our army's civil and military officials. I am very satisfied after reading it!
The news that I was named Duke of Qin and Lu Bu was named Duke of Liang quickly spread throughout the entire Han Dynasty.After Cai Mao heard the news, he yearned for me even more, and when Liu Bei received the news, he felt that I must have forced Liu Bian to reward me, and Liu Bian must have suffered a lot for this, so he held Zhuge Liang and cried loudly, swearing If you want to eradicate me and re-establish the prestige of the big man, then in Liu Bei's camp, I will have an extra title of Lu thief.Historically, Cao's claims that he was a Han prime minister but was actually a Han thief all fell on my head.It's a pity that Liu Bei wants to defeat me, it's just a dream!
Cao is different from Liu Bei. He knows that I am the public, and he is not far behind.You know, Cao has always wanted to compete with me, so naturally he will not let the official rank fall behind me.It's as if Cao had been working as Sikong back then, but I had just been made prime minister, and he also asked Liu Xie to make him prime minister.Now that I am proclaimed Duke, Cao wanted to let Liu Xie also designate him as the Duke of Wei plus Jiuxi, so he summoned all his confidants.In Cao's mind, he didn't expect all civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty to approve him as Duke Wei, but he hoped that all his confidants would support him.It's a pity that Cao has forgotten that there is still a perfect idealist in his confidant, who has always hoped that he can be the Duke of Zhou to protect the Han Dynasty and return the power to Liu Xie in the future. thing!
