Chapter 1446 Four emperors, seven kings and six kings
Chapter 1444: Four Emperors, Seven Kings and Six Kingdoms Dukes
Cao Cao, Liu Che, and Gongsun Xuanyuan, these three vassals successively made the Duke, which also made the other vassals liven up.
After all, if there is a duke in the state, the imperial decree will limit the fiefdom of the country, and the freedom and autonomy of the princes will also become greater.
In short, if you get the title of Luoyang court, you will benefit from all kinds of benefits without any harm.
Following the three princes including Cao Cao, Zhao Duke Yuan Shao was the first to ask the court to be named Duke Zhao.
If you want to be named Duke, you must make great contributions. Yuan Shao has been fighting civil wars in recent years and has made no contribution to the country and the people.
In addition, Yuan Shao was in Qingzhou not long ago and fought a battle with Li Jing, the governor of Qingzhou assigned by the imperial court, and Yuan Shu''s rebellion also had a significant negative impact on Yuan Shao.
Therefore, it is obviously unlikely that Yuan Shao wanted the court to make him a Duke of the State.
In desperation, Yuan Shao could only reduce the garrison on the border with the North Sea and pay tribute to the court 100,000 stones of food and grass and 10,000 taels of gold. At the same time, his attitude of requesting the entrustment of the edict was also reduced to a very low level, hoping to gain the support of the court.
Even Yuan Shao even dug out his old capital, saying that he had four generations and three masters of the Yuan family, and he worked hard without any credit. However, Yuan Benchu ??suppressed the Yellow Turban, expelled the Xianbei, fought against the Ming Dynasty, and participated in the fight against Dong...
In short, it is just a saying that Yuan Shao, I, made merits and shed blood for the Han Dynasty. It is not an exaggeration to be a Duke. The court cannot turn a blind eye to his contributions because of a little mistake.
After Qin Hao saw Yuan Shao''s edict, he looked speechless. Yuan Shao really didn''t even want his face for the sake of the position of Duke.
However, considering that Yuan Shao''s tribute was quite generous, Qin Hao would also fight in Jizhou soon. Such a stiff relationship with Yuan Shao made him always guard against him.
In order to make Yuan Shao let go of his vigilance against himself, Qin Hao decided to grant the position of Duke Zhao to Yuan Shao. After all, with Yuan Shu''s rebellion, the political blessings of the Yuan family were inherited by Yuan Shao. With the political background of the four generations and three dukes of the Yuan family and the contributions made by Yuan Shao himself, it is barely possible to be named Duke in this chaotic period.
Seeing that Yuan Shao was granted the title of Duke Zhao as he wished, the other princes were naturally moved.
Of course, the only ones who were moved were the great princes. Small princes like Song Jiang and Huang Zu naturally didn''t dare to think about the matter of enthronement.
Han Fu, who followed Yuan Shao, asked the court to grant him the title of Duke Han, and then Sun Jian, and also asked to grant him the title of Duke Wu;
The Duke of the Kingdom is not Da Baicai, and the court is not as weak as before. It will be granted the position of Duke of the Kingdom because of Yuan Shu attacks.
Yuan Shao really made contributions, and it is understandable that he was founded, but what is Han Fu’s contribution?
Even if you have made achievements, it is just a small achievement and is not enough to be granted the title of Duke.
Even though Han Fu took the initiative to pay tribute, and the amount was more than Yuan Shao''s, the court still refused Han Fu''s request to be appointed as the Duke.
Of course, if Han Fu is willing to take the initiative to hand over military and political power, Qin Hao can also grant him the position of Duke, but he himself doesn''t want to.
In addition to rejecting Han Fu, the court also rejected Sun Jian''s request for title. During the Battle of Hetao, although Sun Jian supported Qin Hao''s food and supplies, his unification of Jiangdong was not reasonable and legal in the eyes of the court.
Wang Lang did accept Dong Zhuo''s enthronement, but he voluntarily resigned and asked the court for guilt.
Liu Yao was even a relative of the Han Dynasty. Even if he made some minor mistakes, he would not be punished to death. Sun Jian attacked Wang Lang, but he was still famous for his masters, but later attacked Liu Yao, which was a crime, not to mention that he even killed Liu Yao.
The process of Sun Jian unifying Jiangdong did not occupy the legal principles, and to a certain extent it was on the verge of rebellion. If the ruler in the court was not Qin Hao, who had a good relationship, Sun Jian would definitely be directly beaten to be rebellious, and he would not have any negotiation.
Although the personal relationship between Qin and Sun families is good, Qin Hao would not have named Sun Jian the Duke because of this. In addition, although Sun Jian’s contribution is not small, he does not have Yuan Shao’s political background, so it is naturally impossible to be named Duke.
Although Qin Hao rejected Sun Jian’s request for title, he was appointed as General of the Conquest of the South, and General Yang and Jiaotong-Jian-Jiangzhou military affairs.
In order not to make Sun Jian feel irresistible, Qin Hao also gave Sun Jian a promise that as long as he could kill Hong Xiuquan or Yuan Shu, he would definitely be named Duke.
Whether it was Hong Xiuquan or Yuan Shu, it was a great rebellion for the court. If it was the credit for killing them, it would be reasonable for Sun Jian to be conferred Duke. At that time, Qin Hao would naturally not be stingy with Duke Wu''s title.
Sun Jian also knew that his title of Duke was not tenable at all, so he took the initiative to ask for the title of Duke. Although he failed to get the position of Duke Wu, he also obtained the General of the Southern Conquest, one of the four expeditions. In the future, he will also occupy the legal principles of the rule of Jiangnan, and naturally Sun Jian was satisfied.
Qin Hao rejected Han Fu and Sun Jian’s request to be appointed as the Duke, which also made the princes in the world understand that the title of the court is not Dabaicai, and Zhao Kuangyin is just an exception. If you want to get benefits, you must make some efforts.
Qin Hao appointed Cao Cao, Liu Che, Gongsun Xuanyuan, and Yuan Shao as the four men, all of which are well-founded. Rejecting Han Fu and Sun Jian is also well-founded, which makes people unable to find fault.
After this act of enfeoffment, the Luoyang court represented by Qin Hao was even more authoritative, but the authority of the court was consolidated, but the imperial power of the Han Dynasty was further impacted.
At this point, in addition to having three major camps, the world has also entered a new era of four emperors, seven kings and six dukes.
Four emperors: Emperor Liu Xie of Han, Emperor Zhang Sheng of Ming, Emperor Tuolee of Yuan, Emperor Nurhachi of Qing
Seven Kings: King Li Shimin of Tang, King Yang Guang of Sui, King Liu Ji of Shu, King Zhu Tianpeng of Qi, King Hong Xiuquan of Heaven, King Liu Yu of Chengdu, King Chi You of Southern Barbarians
Dukes of the Six Kingdoms: Duke Qin Hao, Duke Song Zhao Kuangyin, Duke Wei Cao Cao, Duke Zhao Yuan Shao, Duke Yan Liu Che, and Duke Liao Sun Xuanyuan
In addition to the four emperors, seven kings and six kings, there are six major marquises in the world, as well as three major counties.
Marquis of the Six Kingdoms: Marquis of Chu, Marquis of Wu, Marquis of Han, Marquis of Han, Marquis of Liang, Marquis of Huang Zu, Marquis of E, Marquis of Yu, Yuan Shu
Three counties: Han Sui, Marquis of Jincheng, Ma Teng, Marquis of Wuwei, Shixie, Marquis of Jiaozhi
From the thirty-six princes to the era of Dong, to the time of the four emperors, seven kings and six kings, in just three or four years, the number of princes in the world has been reduced by half.
Dong Zhuo, Li Yuan, Yang Jian, Wang Shichong, Zhang Shicheng, Chen Youliang, Temujin, Huang Chao... and so on, countless heroes fell, and many new heroes appeared.
You just finished singing and I made a debut, it was really exciting.
But this is just the beginning. A more intense annexation war is coming, and the person who started it is Qin Hao.
The second guaranteed ticket is up. The current monthly ticket is 140. Whether to make up for the debt in the next chapter or continue to guarantee it depends on whether the monthly ticket can exceed 200.
