Chapter 479: Why should you be an emperor?

When I returned to the mansion, I got close to my family, and by the way, I looked at the two children who were already able to run and jump.

In the end, Cai Yan took Liu Tao back to the bedroom under the pretext that he was physically and mentally exhausted, and personally took off his armor for him.

During this period, Liu Tao had to complain about the attitude of the ministers, but when Cai Yan heard this, he laughed in a low voice: "Hehe...... And there's nothing surprising about that. ”

"Huh?" Liu Tao couldn't figure it out, didn't one or two expect him to be king?

In history, Cao Cao was called king, and after Liu Bei and Sun Quan got the news, they were instigated by their subordinates, and it didn't take long for them to be half-pushed and half-proclaimed king. How did you get to him, it's not strange not to be king?

"Claiming the title of king is already an inevitable result, and all that remains is to prepare the ceremony required for the husband to be crowned king, and by the way, to choose an auspicious day of the zodiac and officially crown the king." Cai Yan said with a smile.

"Is it inevitable that I will be called king? Will you not allow me to say that I will not be king? Liu Tao said angrily.

"During this time, many people in the world have become kings." Cai Yan sighed when he heard this, "Liu Yu is said to be the king of Yan at the instigation of his son; Jizhou has King Zhao; The original King of the North Sea has been promoted to the King of Qi; King Pei was proclaimed King Xu by Tao Qian and others. ”

After a pause, he continued: "Liu Yan called the king of Shu in Yizhou, and it is said that he originally planned to be called the king of Han, but he was persuaded by his subordinates to become the king of Shu; The state of Chen merged with the state of Liang, and the king of Chen was renamed the king of Han; Liu Dai proclaimed himself King of Wei in Yanzhou; Liu Biao was also elected by Sun Jian and others to be called the King of Chu. ”

"This Pei King Liu Yao, won't it be because Liu Biao first called the King of Chu that he had to change to King Xu, right?" Liu Tao apparently found one of the glaring problems.

"Hey, maybe that's it......" Cai Yan smiled faintly and nodded back.

In fact, as long as King Xu continues to go south and knocks down the two counties of Jiujiang and Lujiang, it is not a big problem to call a King of Wu. Speaking of which, the State of Xu, which was established during the Western Zhou Dynasty, was later destroyed by the State of Wu.

"Alright! Now I know, one or two have been kings, and I don't call them kings, and they are weaker! Liu Tao sighed, no wonder he didn't mention it, it turned out that he didn't need to mention it at all, it became the norm to be called the king.

"The main thing is that King Zhao, or Yuan Shao is too eager. According to the news from the Zhen family, he was named the emperor by the first to enter Luoyang, and he had already begun to enthrone King Zhao as the emperor. It's just that King Zhao used the excuse that there was no jade seal of the country and 'the position was not right', so he dragged it for the time being. Cai Yan replied, "It's just that it won't take much time......

"The heirloom jade seal is in my hands, it's just this group of impatient guys, as long as they are willing, there will be countless heirloom jade seals coming out." Liu Tao said disdainfully.

"The husband is right, the jade seal of the country is extremely precious because it is respected by others. Its value lies in the world's recognized 'legitimacy', not in the jade seal itself. Cai Yan nodded.

If people recognize its legitimacy, then the heirloom jade seal is real, and if it is not recognized, then it is fake. On the other hand, even if it is a fake jade seal, as long as everyone recognizes that it is real, then it must be real.

This means, the Qing Dynasty played very well, with a so-called 'heirloom jade seal', highlighting its legitimacy. It also gave those soft bones an excuse to surrender.

When they surrendered, they naturally wanted to tout the 'authenticity' of this jade seal, so this jade seal became a real heirloom jade seal. Later, everyone didn't even care about whether the jade seal was really a jade seal.

In other words, even if Liu Tao has a real heirloom jade seal in his hands, everyone does not recognize it and does not pay for it. So naturally, this is the 'fake' heirloom jade seal.

If he dares to take it out, then there will be countless so-called 'heirloom jade seals' in the world. There are even people who carve a jade seal with a stone, and they dare to call it a jade seal.

It is because King Zhao can't last long, and if Yuan Shao needs it, he can make countless heirloom jade seals at any time.

"You say, shouldn't I have let Yuan Shao go to Luoyang in the first place?" Liu Tao thought about it and tried to ask.

"No, no, that's just right, let them be emperors, let them Zen. Make the world more chaotic, so that the husband can rule the world more smoothly. Cai Yan shook his head and said slowly.

"I remember that you said before that you would rather I not be the emperor and only want me to be by your side......" Liu Tao looked at Cai Yan with some curiosity when he heard this, and then tried to ask.

"The general trend is like this, and it's no longer my daughter's turn to take care of it." Cai Yan sighed and looked at Liu Tao resentfully, "At this point, my husband can't help himself. If you don't go up, the civil and military officials below will definitely be dissatisfied. Besides, only by dominating the world as soon as possible can more people avoid the end of family destruction and displacement. ”

"I didn't expect my princess to be able to see so clearly." Liu Tao laughed. If he is called the king, then Cai Yan, as his wife, is naturally the princess.

"If I have a choice, then I would naturally prefer to stay with my husband for a long time, find a safe place where no one disturbs, and live a peaceful and stable life." Cai Yan shook his head, "It's just that in troubled times, where is it safe?" The husband's status to this day has no room for retreat, and as a wife, she can only silently support her husband. ”

"That's what you said......" Liu Tao sighed a little, and unconsciously came to this position. When I looked back, I found that I didn't even have a way out.

The higher you stand, the more people behind you will covet your place. Only when you come to this height, see the scenery here, and look back, can you see those staring at the existence.

There can be a thousand county orders, and there can be hundreds of county guards, but there are only thirteen state assassins, a total of twelve people in the three dukes and nine kings, and only one emperor, behind these people are tens of millions of people.

Let's just say that in the future generations, the population will be more than one billion, and only one or two people will be able to go up to those few high positions. That is naturally a radish and a pit, if you want to go up, you must pull the upper one down, the fierceness of the competition, this era is estimated to be unimaginable.

It is precisely because of that era that Liu Tao knows that even if he is the king, there will still be countless people who covet his position, and even become the emperor.

Calling the king is only the beginning, but it is definitely not the end, why is the emperor a lifelong system, and he can only pass on the throne to the prince if he dies.

It's not that you can't give up power, most of the excellent emperors will feel that being an emperor is too hard, too much work needs to be done, and there is no enjoyment at all.

No, don't worry! What if you choose the wrong heir, and the country you have worked so hard to build will be usurped by others in the generation of your son or grandson? Especially the change of dynasties, it often means that the direct royal family of the previous dynasty cannot be spared!

"As far as the emperor is concerned, I don't know why others are vying to be the ......," Liu Tao teased.

The only driving force that supports him to move towards this position is that every rabbit who grows flowers has the dream of becoming a strong country!

Only by becoming an emperor can you become the helmsman of this country, this nation, sail in the right direction with them. Let this group of rabbits, who are still ignorant, simply go to a bigger, wider new world, and have a direction that they can work hard for!
