Chapter 1047: Conferred Duke (Part 2)
After listening to Li Shi's words, Li Jue chuckled and said, "Why not? Since Huangfu Chaobo can make him an official, why can't he? When the time comes, I will ask Guo Aduo, I believe he will not refuse. , come here, send a message to Guo Aduo, saying that a certain family wants to have a good chat with him, and ask him if he would like to sit in the seat of the Duke. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jue quickly sent someone to invite the witch in, and then said respectfully: "Witch, please do a divination for me and ask about the good or bad luck of this ennoblement!"
The old witch nodded, and then began to perform magic in the hall. Following a witch dance that made everyone dizzy, two turtle shells were thrown from the witch's hands and rolled several times in mid-air. , fell to the ground, the witch slowly walked to the turtle board, bent down to pick it up, and then murmured a few words, then looked at Li Jue and others calmly, and said: "The hexagram indicates good luck. , Congratulations to the Duke!"
When Li Jue heard this, he was overjoyed and kept saying, "That's great. Thank you so much for the witch. I will give you a hundred catties of gold and a hundred brocades of Sichuan brocade to thank the witch!"
The witch turned around and left the hall without comment.
As soon as the witch left, everyone in the Li family burst into cheers and stopped after a while.
In the Han system, Taizu Liu Bang killed the white horse and swore an oath that no one other than the Liu family could be crowned king. Although later when Empress Lu came to power, she crowned several other princes of the Lu family, but they were later eradicated. From then on, in the Han Dynasty, the highest title was the duke. Level, of course there is no such restriction in the game today.
What Huangfu Chaobo doesn't know is that when the player owns the complete territory of the two states, and the historical generals, population, army, and other conditions are met, the first duke can be produced. Gong is also called Guogong, which is actually the abbreviation of vassal state. Historically, Cao Cao was granted the title of Duke of Wei in the 18th year of Jian'an (213) and established the Dukedom of Wei. He established the principality with hundreds of officials and its capital was Yecheng, Wei County. It had a complete feudal system and set the stage for his future accession to the throne of Wei, and even for his son Cao Pi to proclaim himself emperor on behalf of the Han Dynasty. Foundation.
Now Huangfu Chaobo has met the conditions for becoming a duke. In fact, this condition is not that easy to achieve, so the subsequent players only need to own a state and meet other conditions to successfully obtain the duke. The NPC power is completely different from the player power, so Li Jue had the confidence to enlist Guo Si to get a duke for themselves by giving Huangfu Chaobo an opportunity to be promoted to duke.
The reason why he wanted to rope in Guo Bang was because Li Jue knew that if he hadn't roped him in, even if Huangfu Chaobo's title was promoted, he would definitely not be able to win the title of Li Jue.
After hearing what Li Jue said, everyone in the Li family was overjoyed, especially Li Shi, Li Jue's eldest son. They immediately sent people to Guo Si's house to tell him the news.
As Li Jue expected, Guo Si was very concerned about this matter. When he agreed to Li Jue's request, the two parties hit it off and soon agreed on a meeting place.
Early the next morning, the two men couldn't wait to bring five thousand soldiers to the agreed-upon location, a large house in front of the palace. After the soldiers from both sides confirmed the situation inside, each took over half of the defense. , and then the two of them led dozens of personal guards to meet in a pavilion in the mansion.
There was no other way. Both of them were now afraid that the other party was plotting against them, so they chose an open place surrounded by dozens of steps. After careful inspection by the guards, they met in the pavilion.
As soon as they met, Guo Bang said: "Witch Li, what you said yesterday is true?"
Li Jue was furious and said: "Guo Aduo, it's not easy for me to get such an opportunity. I decided to give you a hand because of my old friendship. You are like this. Hmm, if I had known that I would go to the emperor alone without you." You are such a villain."
Guo Bang chuckled softly and said: "Don't think that so-and-so doesn't know your thoughts. It's because you're afraid of so-and-so's opposition, so you have no choice but to get involved with so-and-so..."
Li Jue saw that his thoughts were seen through by the other party, his face turned red, and he said angrily: "Yes, if you, a villain, don't want to,
The worst case scenario is that a certain person will be listed on the list alone, and if a certain person can't succeed, you won't even think about having a chance. "
"Who said that someone is not willing? He just can't see how some people want to be bitches and still build memorial arches." Guo Bang said contemptuously;
The two quarreled again for a while, stopped for a while, and discussed business matters, but they started quarreling again without saying a few words. Not for anything else, but for the title of Duke. Li Jue wanted the title of Duke of Qin. Because the land of Guanzhong was originally the hometown of the State of Qin, the title of Duke of Qin meant that the entire Guanzhong was included in his pocket.
However, Guo Si refused to agree, and the two had a big quarrel again. Finally, Guo Si suggested, well, if you Li Jue will be the Duke of Qin, then I, Guo Si, will be the Duke of Yong. Not only that, Guo Si also brought himself an ally, that is, Dong Huang, who occupied the four counties of Liangzhou. Guo Si won him the title of Duke of Liang.
As a result, three princes suddenly appeared in Kansai, and they were all still under the command of Dong Zhuojun. As for Ma Teng and Han Sui, neither Guo nor Li mentioned them. Those two were in their eyes. Just a traitor.
After finally discussing the titles of several people, the two of them discussed Huangfu Chaobo's title. Unexpectedly, the two started arguing again.
Huangfu Chaobo is now the Marquis of Wenxi County. According to the rules of the court (in the game), he can be promoted to the Duke of the State this time, and he is the first-class Duke of the State, which is the highest level of the Duke of the State. So what kind of Duke of the State should he be? The two searched for a long time in Huangfu Chaobo's territory and found several titles.
Because Huangfu Chaobo's territory is too large, there are two or three states. There are more than a dozen ancient countries that have appeared here, from Tang, Jin, Wei, Yu in Guanzhong to Zheng, Xu, Hu, Cai, Chen, etc. in Guandong. The two discussed for a long time and finally decided on the title between Tang and Jin.
However, between the two titles, the two had a dispute again, and no one could convince the other. In the end, they had no choice but to take a step back and send people to send both titles to Huangfu Chaobo, and then let him choose.
Three days later, the messenger on a fast horse delivered the title to Huangfu Chaobo, which shocked Huangfu Chaobo and his subordinates. It took them a long time to react.
So, the dispute in Chang'an City appeared in Luoyang City again. Everyone under Huangfu Chaobo insisted on their own opinions and argued endlessly about the title. Even old man Cai Yong, who rarely went out of the Luoyang Academy, came to the general's mansion and participated in the debate.
