Chapter 470 Wanting to Be King 【Request】

"Your Majesty, no."

After a moment of silence in the hall, ministers immediately came out with solemn expressions, and more than one of them objected to the title of king with different surnames.

Dong Zhongshu also stood in the hall.

His current position is equivalent to that of a great scholar in later generations, and he is on the same court as Jiuqing.

He glanced at the people who came out to oppose, still led by Shao Fu, and couldn't help but curl his lips.

Before the emperor made the decision to become the king, he discussed with Dong Fuzi, Li Cai, Zhang Tang, including the resigned Gong Sunhong and other courtiers.

Li Cai also held objections at the time.

But Dong Zhongshu and Gong Sunhong refuted it completely.

The ministers who stood up to oppose Huo Qubing's title to the king were not because of factions or personal grievances, but because of opposition.

The main reason is that different surnames are crowned kings, which have very different meanings!
A king with a different surname, in terms of power and influence, has reached the pinnacle and is an extremely courtier.

Even the several kings of the clan have been taken back one after another in the past few years, and they want to be crowned kings with different surnames!
And in the past few years, every time a clan prince overturned his car and was taken back of his royal power, it was related to Huo Qubing intentionally or unconsciously.

Then the emperor stepped forward and took back the royal power.

When the entire government and the public thought that the big man would no longer be crowned king, they turned around and gave Huo Qubing one.

The clan and a group of subordinates who tend to the clan will inevitably oppose it.

The emperor said indifferently: "Since the young manor speaks against it, then you can tell me that it is inappropriate to confer Da Sima as king?"

The young man's name is Liu Shao, who only took over the position of the previous young man last year.

The Shaofu is equivalent to the emperor's chief steward, in charge of the clan, including the expenses of the emperor, Weiyang Palace and other expenses inside and outside.

It ranks in the Jiuqing, and has always been taken by the clan's own people.

Liu Shao is shorter than ordinary people, very thin, 59 years old, with hale eyes and meticulous care of official robes.

When he was questioned by the emperor, he turned around in his mind and found that he couldn't find any reason to oppose Huo Qubing's appointment as king.

The emperor has just said very clearly.

Huo Qubing's credit for defeating the Xiongnu alone is enough to be crowned king.

Huo Qubing usually acted arrogantly and domineeringly in the eyes of the clan, and did not take his clan relatives seriously, but this is obviously not a big fault, at least not in the eyes of the emperor.

Liu Shao bit his head and said, "It's important to seal the king, and he is a king with a different surname.

Although the champion Hou has made many military exploits, he has only been a general for a few years, less than [-] years old, and lacks qualifications.

The minister didn't want to object, but suggested that His Majesty suspend the title of king and wait for a few years. "

After Liu Shao finished speaking, Prime Minister Li Cai, who was standing in the front row, couldn't help but look back, with a strange look on his face.

Li Cai was in the emperor's study at the time, and when he first heard that Huo Qubing was going to be named king, he also gave some explanations, which were almost the same as what Liu Xun said.

Hearing that what Liu Xun said was the same as his own, Li Cai felt as if his homework had been plagiarized.

Dong Zhongshu came out and said: "The old ministers are dull, and some of them didn't quite understand. What does the "seniority" mentioned by the Shaofu have anything to do with being a king? For example, I have been an official in the court for many years, but I have not achieved an inch of merit, but according to what the Shaofu said , I have the most qualifications, but I can be crowned king?"

Dong Zhongshu asked calmly.

The wonderful thing is that he uses himself as an example and hides his wit, so that people can't refute it even if they want to refute it.

Liu Xun said: "Master Dong is willing to be the first to stand up and be willing to be a cow and horse. It is rare. You know what I mean, but you want to mess around."

Dong Zhongshu smiled and said, "Someone is messing around, so I naturally want to follow."

Still full of sarcasm.

Liu Xun pursed his lips.

In terms of quarrels, who can quarrel with Dong Zhongshu and Gongsun Hong?
They are recognized veterans of quarreling.

If Dong Zhongshu is really angry at being quarreled, and he can quote the scriptures and scold people without dirty words, there will be visions in the world, cheer him up.

Liu Xun was a little apprehensive, and after a little hesitation, he retreated to the rank of the court class.

However, someone still stood up and said:

"Your Majesty, the matter of conferring a king is at the beginning of the founding of the country, and only those who have ministers who have made indelible achievements can be conferred the title of king.

After Gaozu, the previous emperors of all dynasties have no proposal to become kings, Your Majesty should think twice! "

In the court, there were successive ministers arguing about whether to become king or not, and it became extremely lively.

The ministers who stood up followed the lead of the clan and Dong Zhongshu respectively.

The emperor watched for a quarter of an hour before saying: "Okay, there is no need to discuss this matter again. I will make my own decision after Da Sima defeats Parthia."

Dong Xu took a step forward: "Let's play if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do."

At the end of the morning court, when the ministers went out, they were still talking about it.

After the founding of the country, for the first time someone wants to be crowned king...

Huo Qubing was the first to leave the hall, Dong Zhongshu came over and said: "Congratulations, Lord Hou, the crowning of the king is just around the corner.

His Majesty said that at that time, Lord Hou will be crowned king and announced to the world.Such honors and pets have never existed before the founding of the country, and they are also envied by evil people. "

On Dong Zhongshu's face was a look of surprise or surprise, quite teasing.

He had known about being crowned king long ago, but the emperor kept them secret, and then announced it personally at the court meeting, even Huo Qubing didn't know about it in advance.

Huo Qubing said calmly: "The current ten thousand households are enfeoffed as marquis... Actually, it's already very good."

"With Huo Hou's meritorious service, he should be crowned king, why should he be humble."

Dong Zhongshu said: "This time is different from the past. It is a great joy to be crowned king. How about I go to the Hou Mansion to ask for a drink at night?"

Huo Qubing smiled, and the two separated, going about their own business.

On this day, the emperor will crown the champion Hou as king, and it spreads wildly through various channels, and those who are a little well-informed know that after the founding of the Han Dynasty, there will be a king with a different surname.

In the future, the champion Hou should be changed to the champion king, Lang Juxu.

In the evening, when Huo Qubing returned home, Liu Qing and Zhuo Qingke came out to welcome him.

His wives and concubines came to the back house with him.

Liu Qing asked solemnly: "Your Majesty wants to crown your husband a king?"

My daughter-in-law looked a little serious.

Huo Qubing: "The clan sent someone to ask?"

"Well, grandma personally asked someone to come over and asked my husband what he thinks of this matter?"

Liu Qing said: "There are also some clan members of the clan who have strange yin and yang. There is also news from King Jiaoxi and King Changshan. Husband knows that they have nothing good to say even if you don't ask. We don't need to pay attention to it. But grandma came to ask and wanted to know. Husband's thoughts."

Zhuo Qingke blinked and listened.

Huo Qubing said: "I know what my grandmother is worried about, you can reassure her. Now that the court is stable, the external threat from the northern nomads has been eliminated."

From a historical point of view, being a king is actually a highly dangerous profession.

There are not many people with different surnames who end up being crowned kings.

For example, several kings with different surnames who founded the Han Dynasty were almost all raped by Emperor Gaozu or Queen Lu, and only one died well.

But in Han today, the situation is quite different.

Its national border, national power, and internal stability ensure that no one can pose a threat to the emperor's position and form a factor of instability.

Otherwise, the emperor would not take the initiative to propose to make Huo Qubing king.

We must know that the goal of the emperor is also changing with the power of the country and the power of control.

His vision is broader, expanding his ambitions from the Central Plains to the whole world, his structure and ambitions grow, and he looks outside.

He will not tolerate a king.

Therefore, Huo Qubing's title of king is different from that in the early days of the founding of the country.

Huo Qubing said: "Whether to be crowned king or not is just a proposal, we will talk about it after we finish fighting Parthia."

Seeing that he knew what was in his mind, Liu Qing felt relieved, his thoughts changed slightly, and he felt happy again.

With her identity, marrying anyone is a marriage, except for Huo Qubing.

My husband is going to be crowned king?

Is there any glory?
The status is second only to the emperor.

"Uncle will also be considered by His Majesty. Your Majesty will throw me out to take the lead. When all the objectors are opposed, he will raise the proposal of Uncle becoming king."

"That's just two people, and they both belong to our family." Liu Qing said with some pride.

Zhuo Qingke followed suit, her pretty face full of brilliance.

Evening sunset.

Dong Zhongshu, Gongsun Hong, Dao Zun and Huo Guang came together.

A few people gathered in the backyard.

Huo Qubing said: "The elders knew about my appointment as king in advance?"

Gongsun Hongdao: "It's a matter of course for you to become the king. Your Majesty wants to announce this personally, and we didn't let us say it in advance."

Dong Zhongshu raised his glass and said: "I am in charge of Taixue, and I am most concerned about two things, one is to promote education and promote the academy all over the world.

The second is to summarize and sort out the knowledge of the philosophers in order to pass it on to future generations. "

"Last month, the collection of books in Tianlu and Shiqu Pavilions of my Dahan exceeded 70 volumes, more than ever before, including books from surrounding countries gathered in my Dahan. The school palaces and dormitories built in various counties have also been built in the past three years. , an increase of over a hundred."

Tianlu Pavilion and Shiqu Pavilion are the earliest national libraries.

To see whether a country is strong or not, it mainly depends on education, external influence, military affairs, financial resources and other aspects, which complement each other.

Dong Zhongshu took a sip of his wine and said in a slightly drunken way: "Now not only the four barbarians come to court, but countries that I have never heard of before have also merged into my big man."

"These changes are directly related to Huo Hou. Those who are undefeated and can win consecutive battles can be called famous generals.

He has defeated countless enemies and eliminated patients from the country. He is an immortal general.

The one who can use the surrounding countries to promote the great prosperity of our Han Dynasty is Huo Huer.

Shendu’s tribute from last year was close to the amount of grain produced by my big man, which is equivalent to nearly double the grain production. It is really rich without foreign wealth. "

"Master Hou should be crowned king."

Gongsun Hong and Dao Zun raised their glasses one after another.

Liu Qing grinned and poured wine for a few of them himself, thinking that the old men were very pleasant to talk to.

Lanling wine tulips, jade bowls filled with amber light.

"Qubing, when you asked my disciples to travel around, you were looking for a kind of fruit that grows in the field. I have found it here. It is in Taishan County. Occasionally, some mountain people dig it up and eat it as a wild fruit." Dao Zun explain.

He meant peanuts.

Later generations believed that peanuts were a foreign product for a period of time, and it was only introduced to China in the Ming Dynasty.

However, the seeds of carbonized peanuts were discovered twice in a row, which proved that peanuts existed in China during the Neolithic Age.

Shenzhou is one of the independent production areas of peanuts, but it has not spread.

The Taoist disciples under Daoist's jurisdiction preached the world, traveled around, paid special attention to these things, and discovered something.

Huo Qubing said: "Peanuts are a very suitable crop to promote and plant, and they can help farming."

As the night darkened, everyone dispersed.

The couple returned to the inner house, Liu Qing, who had a few drinks, had a rosy cheek, and approached to help Huo Qubing take off his robe, and said: "My husband will go out again in a few days, remember to be careful of the dangers of the battlefield."

Huo Qubing smiled: "His Royal Highness is in a good mood tonight, how about my husband and I celebrating."

Liu Qing spat lightly: "No, after my husband came back from Luoyang...my body seems to be falling apart these few days, I should go find your concubine."

"His Royal Highness has the physique of a phoenix returning to the nest, and it recovers the fastest. If you want to cheat your husband, you will be punished...you will be punished to kneel and not sleep tonight."

Time flies, and a few days go by in the blink of an eye.

About to go to Parthia, the battalions have prepared their troops and horses, and the relevant supplies have already started.

That night, Huo Qubing came to the study and took out a utensil.

Before at Luoyang Bakou, Huo Qubing had arranged a back-up plan to deal with sudden changes.

The thing was put in Song Ran, and it was taken back after returning to Chang'an. It was the blood of the first emperor.

Most of the things obtained in the Qinhuang Mausoleum cannot be taken out of the imperial mausoleum, but Qin Huang's blood seals the secret pattern power of the immortal demon of Yongzhen.

At that time, it was prepared that once the vertical and horizontal half-sage appeared and the situation got out of control, sacrificing this drop of blood would be enough to suppress a half-sage.

Wait until you come back from Parthia this time, and then go to the imperial tomb.The changes in the island country are probably related to the imperial tomb... Huo Qubing thought to himself.

He was thinking about something when a figure quietly rolled in from the window.

With a graceful figure, a three-dimensional face, charming and affectionate eyebrows and eyes, and fair and delicate skin like enamel, she is Wei Na in the extreme north.
