Chapter 9: The Imperial Court (3)
Sometimes, regardless of whether the case proposed by the other side is correct or not, the opponent's side will only oppose it, without considering whether the other party's proposal is reasonable, which is also the cruelty of political struggle.
Hearing Hushou's sky-high asking price, Chong Fu, who had never expressed his position before, stood up and said: "I have taken over the world since Emperor Gaozu beheaded the White Snake Uprising, and there are countless people who have opened the mansion, but almost all of them are three dukes or generals. I have been in peace for a long time, and this policy has been followed, so there is no precedent for those who opened the government with miscellaneous generals. ā
This sentence is still very good, making Hu Shou speechless.
In the Han and Wei dynasties, we should pay attention to a precedent to follow when speaking and doing things, or follow the stories of the previous dynasties. For example, when Cao Cao was promoted to the "King of Wei", many people objected, saying that since the Han Dynasty, Gaozu set up an ancestral precept that those who are not surnamed Liu cannot be kings. At that time, Cao Cao took the story of Han Xin, the king of Huaiyin, as a precedent and blocked the mouth of the world.
Dong Zhuo looked at the defeat of his horse boy Hushou and Chong Fu below, and was also a little anxious, but he still remained quiet, because he had already taken these into account when he was making the plan last night.
After reading this, Dong Zhuo looked at Dong Shouye again, and found that his son was still an old god standing on the ground, and he really looked imposing.
Actually, this is Dong Zhuo's misunderstanding, Dong Shouye is not standing there because the old god is there, but in a state where he has nothing to do with himself.
Why did Dong Shouye care so much about his vital interests, but was in a daze.
The reason is that this guy can't understand what everyone is talking about at all, what kind of fake festival, opening the mansion, are all unfamiliar words to Dong Shouye. This feels the same as a Chinese scolding a foreigner who doesn't understand Chinese in Chinese, and the scolding buddy still uses dialects. The other party didn't feel it at all when he heard it, only a stomach full of inexplicability.
Seeing the dumb fire of Hushou, Li Ru stood up again and said: "What do you think should be done with that kind of commonplace." ā
I thought that someone on the other side would jump out and argue with him, and then debate with the scriptures, but I didn't expect the other party to suddenly change his tone and ask himself.
Chong Fu is also an old man, extremely shrewd, naturally he will not feel that the other party is letting him decide this matter, it seems that he has been generalized. To be honest, I didn't think about Dong Shouye's reward at all before, and the reason why I stood up today was because the reward proposed by Dong Zhuo's side was too much.
I was caught off guard by the question, and I didn't say a reason for a long time.
At this time, Dong Zhuo spoke, only to hear a loud shout like a broken gong: "The Sikong is the pillar of my dynasty, and the reward is also within the scope of the Sikong, I don't know how to deal with it, please tell me quickly!" ā
When Dong Zhuo shouted like this, the seven souls lost six and a half souls, and he became even more nervous, sweating on the top of his head. However, Chong Fu is also a person who has seen wind and waves, although he is a little afraid of Dong Zhuo, he will not be frightened by the other party's loud voice.
Calming down his mentality, Chong Fu continued: "Your Majesty, Taishi, although General Dong Shouye has made a lot of meritorious contributions in Luoyang, he defeated the traitors. But its merits are still not enough to open the government, and the three divisions are the same, and his majesty is clearly inspected. ā
After listening to the words of the kind of Fu, Wang Yun, Ma Riyan and others also nodded again and again and said in agreement.
After listening to Chongfu's words, Dong Shouye glanced at him and saw what this person looked like. At this time, Dong Zhuo glared at the flicker with his eyes, as if to say: "If you don't give Lao Tzu a satisfactory answer today, Lao Tzu will kill you." ā
Chong Fu felt Dong Zhuo's vicious eyes, and his heart was also a little worried. Although he disagreed with Dong Zhuo's political views and deliberately tried to get rid of Dong Zhuo, he was still afraid of Dong Zhuo's majesty and did not dare to have a head-on conflict with Dong Zhuo, and tried his best to protect himself before plotting anything else.
Dong Zhuo saw that the three dukes were unanimously against him, and he immediately felt very annoyed, and he felt like he wanted to kill someone. looked at the kind of whisk viciously, and said secretly: "You old boy is troublesome, see how Lao Tzu will clean you up in the future." ā
According to Dong Zhuo's previous character, when he encounters this situation, he will definitely go on a killing spree. But before this, Dong Shouye had persuaded his father to do less killing, and Dong Zhuo's mood during this time was very good, so he had always been very restrained.
At this time, Chong Fu saw that Dong Zhuo was still looking at him viciously, looking like he was not going to give up with himself, and he was also a little uneasy, a little worried about his own life, and said secretly: "It seems that if today's matter is not said for a reason, Dong Zhuo's old thief will not give up, but the only way to do it now is to take out an official position to appease Dong Zhuo's father and son." ā
Suddenly, he had an idea and said: "Your Majesty, Taishi, the minister thinks that although General Dong Shouye is not enough to open a mansion and build a government. However, in order to show the importance that His Majesty and the Taishi attach to the talents of the world, Chen Jian yƬ made a slight change on the basis of what Hu Yilang said, making him a general who broke the captives and held the festival. I don't know if His Majesty and Taishi think this move is feasible? ā
In terms of the current situation, Dong Shouye's official worship of the general and the festival is already very good. Although there is only one word difference between the false festival and the holding festival, the power is turned upside down, in the simplest terms, the holding festival can kill officials below 2,000 stone in wartime, and people without official positions can be killed in peacetime. That is to say, with the rights that Dong Shouye has obtained at present, they can basically go sideways in the country, and there are few people with similar rights. Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, and Lu Zhi were awarded the festival during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, which was because of the turmoil in the whole country, which was an extraordinary time. Now in the whole country, except for Dong Zhuo, there is no one who has been officially awarded the festival by the Son of Heaven.
Although the term "holding the festival" seems to be full of nothingness, once it is used, I don't know how many heads will fall to the ground.
In fact, when Dong Zhuo was discussing with Li Ru before, the bottom line was to break the general, and it was just a fake festival. After that, Li Ru contacted Hushou, and Hushou came forward to pull the banner. Although Hushou is full of twists and turns, it has only one purpose, that is, to strive for better conditions for Dong Shouye. As for letting Dong Shouye open a mansion, he didn't even think about it, it was simply impossible.
Now that the situation has reached expectations, there is no need to continue arguing, and there is no need to commit any more murder and arson because of this matter.
The other ministers in the court can only agree with this situation, after all, this mention was proposed by himself as a kind of commonplace, even if Wang Yun and Ma Riyan spoke out against it, the situation is still two against two, without any advantage, but will offend Dong Zhuo even more, these two are old fritters, and they will not be confused in this kind of thing.
Dong Shouye is still a little dizzy here, didn't he say that he was just a broken general? Why did he suddenly become a broken general, holding the knot. Seeing that many people around him came to congratulate him, Dong Shouye felt that there were a lot of official positions, and it seemed to have a high gold content.
