We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?
Chapter 156 What happened to the posthumous title? That's the Marquis too!
At this moment, everyone in the pavilion had mixed emotions.
Cao Cao's guilt was relieved a lot because his beloved son was lost and Dian Wei was not dead.
The haze that had been weighing on my heart was completely swept away.
Xiyu didn't have much emotion.
Lao Cao is now able to realize his own problems, which is considered a good thing.
However, at this moment.
Dian Wei's abrupt words caused everyone's eyes to fall on him.
edict?
Xi Yu found it a bit funny. He had already mentioned the reward to Dian Wei before.
But, this guy seems to have forgotten again!
Cao Ang was also a little curious. His father specially asked for an edict for Dian Wei, but he didn't know what it contained.
At this time, Cao Cao heard Dian Wei's voice and subconsciously glanced at the edict in his hand.
It is true that this edict was requested on behalf of Dian Wei.
only!
In this situation, Dian Wei is still alive!
This is an edict for the dead.
He looked at Dian Wei.
This edict is not an auspicious thing at the moment. Although it is a title, the meaning is different.
However, since Dian Wei was curious, it wasn't a big deal if he arrived.
Cao Cao looked at Xi Yu with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
Xi Yu smiled.
"Since brother has requested the edict and the rightful owner is here, you might as well hand it over to the rightful owner directly!"
Xi Yu had already guessed what kind of edict this was.
Nothing more than a posthumous title after death.
After hearing this, Cao Cao did not hesitate at all.
It's a good thing that Dian Wei is not dead, but these guys have made me feel guilty for this period of time.
But it made him somewhat unhappy.
"Oh, it's just for evil!"
Cao Cao smiled and handed the edict in his hand to Dian Wei without hesitation.
At this moment, Dian Wei was somewhat impatient. He took the edict and spread it out in front of everyone.
He glanced at the contents of the edict at a glance.
Fortunately, when he was in the transport camp, Dian Wei also knew some words, and he also knew some of the contents of the edict.
"When will you be strong?"
Is this the imperial court conferring a title on itself?
Dian Wei was a little confused!
But he still knew the meaning of Marquis to some extent.
This is a title, a lifelong goal for many people!
Just for a moment, the joy in my heart couldn't help but overflow.
"The great time of mourning!"
Xi Yu also saw clearly the reward in Dian Wei's edict.
Lao Cao is really willing to give up. This edict from a feudal lord is not simple.
You know, even if it is just a posthumous title, no matter what, this is still a marquis.
In today's Cao camp, except for Cao Cao, he has the position of marquis, and even he has not yet been granted the title of marquis.
Now Dianwei is taking advantage of it.
No matter what the reason for this marquis is, and no matter whether he has a posthumous title or not, this is a marquis after all.
"It's a beautiful posthumous title!"
Xi Yu chuckled slightly, and raised his brows slightly.
If he remembered correctly, after Guan Yu's death, Liu Chan's posthumous title for Guan Yu included the character Zhuang, which was Zhuang Miaohou.
And among them, the so-called strong ones.
The mighty virtue is called Zhuang by force, the overcoming of siege is called Zhuang, the death in the field is called Zhuang, the victory over the enemy and the overcoming of chaos is called Zhuang;
A person who loves strength and courage is called Zhuang, who goes on repeated conquests is called Zhuang, who fails to succeed in martial arts is called Zhuang, who has strong military virtues and is determined, which is called Zhuang, and who fails to act according to the rules and regulations is called Zhuang.
Later, the posthumous titles given to Xu Chu, Xu Huang and others by Cao Wei all contained the word "zhuang".
This is a proper and beautiful posthumous title.
And the word mourning.
The meaning is clearer.
One of the meanings of mourning person is mourning death at an early age.
This is naturally inconsistent with Dian Wei. After all, Dian Wei was already an adult and could not be considered an untimely death.
And it has another meaning.
It’s national mourning!
Die for your country! Died fighting for his country.
hehe!
After realizing the meaning of this posthumous title, Xi Yu subconsciously glanced at Cao Cao.
What a sad word!
You, Lao Cao, are really shameless and have no shame at all!
The fundamental reason for the Battle of Wancheng was to fight for the country?
Of course, if you insist on fighting for your country, it still makes sense.
But, even so, if Dian Wei really died in battle, was he fighting for his country?
That's to pay for Cao Cao's lust. What does it have to do with the big man?
Although this posthumous title is a beautiful one, Cao Cao thought it was just an excuse for Dian Wei to die in battle.
He even lifted himself up.
As if he noticed Xi Yu's gaze, Cao Cao's face turned slightly red. The meaning behind his posthumous title was that he could not hide it from others.
What's more, it's still a joke.
Not only Xi Yu, but also Xi Zhicai and others could see this skill.
The corner of Cao Ang's mouth twitched. If he died in this battle, maybe his father would give him such a posthumous title!
However, when he thought about the real situation behind this posthumous title, Cao Ang felt a little numb.
After all, he is his father, even if he understands something.
Cao Ang didn't dare to say it, nor did Cao Anmin next to him.
Xi Yu was too lazy to expose Cao Cao's little thoughts.
At this time, Dian Wei didn't seem to have reacted, and he looked like he was smiling as he held the edict in his hand.
For Dian Wei, this is a title!
This was something he couldn't even imagine.
He didn't do anything, and he was just banned!
Dian Wei had a smile on his face, and the people around him naturally knew that this guy didn't seem to understand what the feudal lord in front of him meant.
Cao Anmin couldn't help but laugh too, and even Cao Ang couldn't hold back anymore.
After all, this edict from the Marquis cannot be accepted.
Xi Zhicai patted Dian Wei on the shoulder: "Old Dian, the meaning of your title is somewhat different from that of an ordinary title prince!"
Um?
Dian Wei was in a daze!
What does Mr. Xi Da mean?
Isn't it the same as becoming a marquis? Is there anything different about it?
Dian Wei doesn’t understand!
However, seeing the strange expressions of the people in front of them, Cao Ang and Cao Anmin's smiles were obviously malicious.
And there was something wrong with the look on Cao Cao's face.
Dian Wei frowned: "What do you mean, Mr. Da, tell me what's the difference between these titles?"
"Idiot!" Xi Yu scolded.
He had already said it before on the way back to Xuchang, and Dianwei still couldn't realize it yet.
Xi Zhicai didn't hide anything. He turned around and began to explain to Dian Wei carefully.
"Old Dian, the marquis in this edict is a posthumous title!"
"The posthumous title is the reward given after death!"
"Look, the meaning of this Zhuang Ming Hou is very clear. Normal marquisships are all marquises with territorial possessions!"
"For example, Sikong's Wu Pinghou, the word "Wu Ping" is the place name, such as Lu Bu's Wen Hou, the word "Wen" represents Wen County!"
"And your word Zhuangshang is not a place name, but an honorific!"
Xi Zhicai spoke in great detail, and Dian Wei followed and understood.
In short, he has reacted now. He really remembered that Mr. Sikong might have made him a marquis before!
I didn’t expect that this was really the case, and this Marquis was awarded to the dead!
At this moment, Dian Wei's joy was directly diluted.
Since he is not dead, the Marquis cannot take him.
What's more, everyone else is a living marquis. He is still alive, so he can't stand up to a dead marquis!
"Now that Dian Wei is still alive and well, let's just let this edict go!"
Cao Cao smiled on his face. Since Dian Wei is alive, the edict in front of him is naturally meaningless.
At this time Dianwei also waved his hand.
Although he was not granted a title, he did not want the posthumous title of a dead person.
This title is unlucky!
"No, no, I don't want to be a marquis anymore!"
"No, I don't want this posthumous title anymore. If you change me to a marquis, Sikong, I still want it!"
This guy Dian Wei suddenly seems to be smart.
Although the Marquis he got was gone, since Cao Cao could get him one, it would be okay to just change the title of Marquis.
However, upon hearing what Dao Dianwei said, the corners of the mouths of everyone around him twitched.
Does this guy think that becoming a marquis is such a simple matter?
The meaning of posthumous title and existing title are completely different.
What merits do you, Dian Wei, have that you can be granted the title of marquis for nothing?
"Lao Dian, you are thinking too much. Your husband has not even been granted the title of marquis. Are you still thinking about becoming a marquis?"
Xi Zhicai laughed at this moment, and Dian Wei seemed to realize something after hearing this.
He quickly waved his hand again: "No, no!"
"Yes, why not!"
As soon as Dian Wei finished speaking, Xi Yu suddenly spoke with a smile.
As soon as he said these words, Cao Cao's whole body suddenly became stiff.
What!
If you really want to get a marquis for Dian Wei, it's not an easy matter!
A posthumous marquis is simple, but a marquis on the surface has a different meaning.
What's more, how many people in Cao's army don't have the title of marquis!
Even if he felt guilty, this Marquis was not allowed to do it.
Cao Cao was about to speak, but he saw Xi Yu's hand suddenly pressed on the edict in front of him.
"What I'm talking about is not the other marquises, but the edict in front of me!"
"Since His Majesty has issued an edict, my brother cannot let His Majesty take back the edict!"
"Besides, this is the Marquis after all, I want it for Dian Wei!"
? ? ?
Cao Cao was a little confused!
At the moment, he somewhat didn't understand what it meant when Xi Yu fell to the ground.
This is a posthumous title for a dead person. Dian Wei is still alive. What's the point of having such a posthumous title?
In addition to the title of a marquis, one of them has no fiefdom, and the other has no fiefdom.
Furthermore, if this matter spreads, I’m afraid everyone in the world will laugh!
Dian Wei also didn't understand this skill.
A dead person's name, you want whatever you want.
However, his husband has already spoken, and he has not yet been forgiven by his husband.
Whatever the gentleman says is what he says!
Dian Wei said nothing, but Cao Cao looked at Xi Yu with a hint of questioning in his eyes.
"Fengyi, what are you doing?"
Cao Cao finally couldn't help but asked.
Hearing this, Xi Yu smiled.
"Brother, I want this posthumous edict for Dian Wei, and I have no other intention!"
"Dian Wei is a big-hearted guy. Giving him this posthumous title will help him improve his memory and save him from being impulsive in the future!"
Xiyu opened his mouth to explain.
Of course, the first intention of requesting this edict for Dian Wei was indeed this.
However, there are other intentions in this.
No matter what, Dian Wei is still his, although the current edict is a posthumous title.
However, with the title of Zhuang Shang Hou, Dian Wei's apparent status is different from before.
From Su Wei to Marquis, even if it is a title of a dead person.
Those are also two concepts.
Xi Yu did not mention the hidden meaning.
At this moment, Cao Cao didn't think much about it. Since Xi Yu said this, he already had the edict in hand anyway. Fortunately, he didn't have any objections.
It's not him who bears the posthumous title. As long as Dian Wei can feel okay, then nothing will happen.
At this time, I saw that my husband and Cao Cao had already made up their minds.
Dian Wei's face turned a little dark.
Posthumous title, who wants to bear a dead name?
"Sir, this!"
Dian Wei wanted to say something more, but then he saw Xi Yu looking at him with a cold expression.
"Why, you don't want to!"
"If you really don't want to, I won't force you!"
Xi Yu's voice was very calm, but Dian Wei heard a chill in it for some reason.
He followed and shook his head: "Whatever the sir says is whatever it is. If the sir wants me to take it, I will take it!"
"In that case, then you take it!"
"This is a Marquis. Of course, it wouldn't be a bad idea if you turned him into a real posthumous title!"
After Xi Yu finished speaking, he threw the edict to Dian Wei, who looked a little confused while holding the edict in his hand.
Regarding Dian Wei's situation, Xi Yu was exactly what he wanted to see.
With such a posthumous title, this guy will think twice before doing anything in the future.
At this time, after finishing the edict about Dian Wei, Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief and sat down directly on the stone bench of the pavilion.
His eyes inadvertently caught sight of Cao Ang and Cao Anmin who were smiling next to them.
In just a moment, Cao Cao felt a little unhappy.
"Sir, do you still have the nerve to smile?"
Thinking that I was hiding at home, I felt so guilty that I didn't even dare to see my father and relatives, but Cao Ang and Cao Anmin were safe and sound hiding in Xi Yu.
At this moment, the anger in Cao Cao's heart became somewhat uncontrollable.
With a loud shout, the expression on Cao Ang's face suddenly stiffened.
"You two, get out of here!"
Pointing at Cao Ang and the two, Cao Cao finally suppressed them. After all, he was in the theater now.
With Xi Yu in front of him, it was hard for him to teach these two people a lesson directly.
However, he has plenty of time for this matter.
Cao Ang and the other two did not dare to delay. After Cao Cao spoke, they saluted Xi Yu and followed him out of the theater.
Before leaving, Cao Ang had a look of reluctance in his eyes, looking at Xi Yu with the obvious intention of making Xi Yu plead.
However, it was as if he didn't see this playful look at all.
He had had enough of these two guys hiding in his house.
As for what will happen if Lao Cao goes back, what does it have to do with his Xiyu.
Lao Cao beat his son on a rainy day. Could he really beat Cao Ang to death?
Wait until Cao Ang and Cao Anmin leave.
Cao Cao sighed.
This expedition to the west ended in vain because of his fault.
Five hundred thousand troops went out for a trip, but suffered a lot of losses.
"Fengyi, how should we act in the current situation!"
Because of the failure of the westward advance, the current situation of Cao's army has also changed.
Although the strength has not been greatly affected.
But after this battle, whether it was Liu Biao of Jingzhou or Zhang Yang of Hanoi, as well as Li Jue and Guo Si of the Three Qins.
These people now regard him as their enemy.
Not to mention that there is Yuan Shao to the north and Yuan Shu to the south.
Now that he wants to go on another expedition, I'm afraid it won't be that simple.
"Don't worry, although this westward advance has failed, on the surface there are signs of changes in the world's situation!"
"But, it has no impact on us!"
To be honest, Cao Cao owned two and a half states. Although he failed to advance westwards, his strength was not affected in any way.
If any prince tried to pluck out the tiger's beard at this time, he would only be hurt.
At the moment, Xuchang as a whole, headed by Cao Cao, does not need to do much.
Cao Cao doesn't move!
Then the remaining princes can't move much.
Although Liu Biao of Jingzhou had the intention to march north, the situation before was different from the situation now.
Those aristocratic families in Jingzhou would not agree to march with Liu Biao.
Liu Biao was already constrained.
As for Li Jue, Guo Si and others, due to the changes in the past two years, their strength is no longer as fearful as before.
Occupying Chang'an is the limit of what they can do.
If they dare to go out of Tongguan and Weishui, it will be their own destruction.
What's more, the internal situation between these two people is still unstable!
On the other side, Zhang Yang of Hanoi and Lu Bu of Bingzhou.
Although Zhang Yang took advantage of Cao Cao's withdrawal, he occupied part of the Sili area.
However, the counties and towns near Luoyang are easy to capture but difficult to develop.
The entire Chang'an and Sili area was an opportunity for Cao Cao to expand his territory and develop his power.
But for Zhang Yang and others, it is worse than a useless thing.
Because of the Little Ice Age and the previous wars in Chang'an, Sili and other areas, very few of the people who lived in these places survived.
Cao Cao had an area of two and a half states and could move the population slowly. He promoted a small Hanoi area, but there was not that much population migration.
As for Lu Bu, Yuan Shao did not capture Lu Bu before, perhaps to give Cao Cao eye candy.
Let Cao Cao recognize himself.
However, when looking back, Yuan Shao was still eyeing Bingzhou's territory after all.
Now that Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have not broken up, in the name of alliance, Yuan Shao's top priority right now is to attack Bingzhou.
Only after capturing Bingzhou did Yuan Shao have the intention to go south.
As for Yuan Shu on the other side, he has little influence. Without Sun Ce, he is nothing.
And Sun Ce also had his own ideas.
This matter is easy to solve.
All that's left is a piece of embroidery.
Due to the failure of the westward advance, Nanyang and other places that were originally under the control of Cao Jun have now fallen due to the Jingzhou Army and Zhang Xiu.
"In Yi Yu's opinion, brother doesn't need to do anything now!"
"Brother only needs to stabilize the court in the coming days!"
"You can send a general to take back the lost Nanyang and other places if you can. Don't worry if you can't!"
"The rest is just a matter of waiting for the weather!"
