When Cao Cao was alive, he built a temple for his ancestor Cao Shen, called "First Ancestor". His father Cao Song's temple was named "Taizu", and his posthumously named "Emperor Jian" - the posthumously posthumously said: "One virtue is unremittingly called Jian..." Cao Mao succeeded to the throne and buried Cao Cao. The ministers reported to him that he asked to establish "Gaozu Temple" with the posthumous title "Wu" - the posthumously posthumously said: "It is Wu to overcome the disaster and chaos." It also said: "It is strong and upright to be Wu." It sounds much more reliable than Cao Song's posthumous title.

As for Cao Cao's grandfather Cao Teng, because he was a eunuch, he did not build a temple and make a posthumous posthumous title.

Shixun met Xiahou Dun, the country's country of Zhu at Cao Cao's funeral. His face was pale and sick, and he was supported by a group of ministers. In fact, half of Xiahou Yuanrang were pretending. He was indeed sick and unable to get sick, but he could not be in charge of the ministers at all, and he even needed someone to help him walk. Therefore, after the funeral, the two of them walked together, Shixun leaned over and asked him in a low voice: "What are you worried about?" What are you worried about if you can't come out to manage the affairs?

Xiahou Dun replied lightly: "I recently read the Biography of Ma Fubo because I regretted the namelessness on the stage."

Ma Fubo was Ma Yuan. He started his career in Xizhou and later returned to Guangwu in Han, and his achievements were outstanding. However, this guy's ending was not very good. He fought against Lingnan and died of the epidemic. However, he was framed by Geng Shu and others before his death, which led to Emperor Guangwu taking over the seal and ribbon of his new majesty, and his family did not dare to be buried with him. Later, Emperor Ming succeeded to the throne, built Yuntai, and hung portraits of twenty-eight heroes, but Ma Yuan was missing. King Liu Cang of Dongping asked him, but Emperor Ming smiled but said nothing.

Later generations speculated that it was because Ma Yuan's daughter was the Empress of Emperor Ming. In order to avoid the suspicion of the pepper room, she was not allowed to be the "Twenty-Eight Generals of Yuntai". If it were to say that Xiahou Yuanrang only had a lot of rabbits and had nine sons and four daughters. When Cao Cao was alive, he appointed his young daughter as the wife of the emperor Cao Mao - although he was of different seniority. People didn't care about this at that time. Although Cao Mao was not crowned, it was not until the wedding. But in theory, this marriage would not be disappointed.

So Xiahou Dun meant that I would be the emperor's father-in-law in the future. In order to be suspicious of using power from relatives with foreign power, it would be better to just take advantage of the illness and retire early.

Shixun couldn't help but sigh, "Why do you have to do this?" Xiahou Dun smiled and said, "If the emperor does not summon Hongfu back, I may whip the rotten bones to pillar the court. Now that Hongfu returns, why should I worry?" Shixun represents the interests of the founding heroes headed by Xiahou of Cao. With him in control of the government affairs, the heroes are free of worries, so Xiahou Dun returned home with confidence to enjoy his old age.

Cao Cao was buried for a few months. The emperor issued an edict and ordered a great honorary position. The court was more than 2,000 stones, and 70% of them were awarded the title of scattered officials. Among the five ministers of the regent, Cao De promoted to the throne, Wang Lang was the tutor, and Hua Xin was the magistrate; Cao Ren and Cao Hong were the throne as the highest military honor. Moreover, Xiahou Dun of the Pillar Kingdom had not yet been banned, so it was difficult to win his position. Therefore, he was not promoted.

Then, in the name of responsible for political affairs, Hua Xin was dismissed and replaced by his old minister Zhong Yao. However, as the minister of responsible, he ordered Cao De and others to arrive at the Secretariat in three days to participate in the meeting of the prime ministers, which was equivalent to increasing the prime minister from six to nine. Huan Fan reminded Shi Xun: "This emperor wants to divide the power of the lord." Shi Xun smiled distractedly: "That is Wang Jingxing, Hua Ziyu, how can he control me?" As for Cao De's "little transparent", he didn't take it to heart.

Xing Yong had not returned to Shu, and he was also allowed to negotiate the title of a senior official. Cao Mao issued an order, and because of Secretary Xing Yanchi, he appointed Cui Yan as secretary. Huan Fan went to warn Shixun again: "The emperor valued Cui Jigui, and it is clear to control the lord." Shixun said that if the emperor could completely reassure the court of the court and think that I was not enough to shake his authority, then there was nothing wrong with Confucius. He quoted Confucius: "I am born with virtue, so what is Huan's way of pursuing me?"

In theory, Cao Mao’s decisions must be reviewed and issued an edict. If Xun disagreed, the little emperor would not do anything. However, Xun felt that the matter was not big, and there was no need to be the emperor to be the one who was power, which was like a sharp blade, and was always in his arms to shock Xiao Xiao. If Tianer was holding it in his hand, people would not be afraid. Moreover, if the emperor’s will refute the will of the emperor, it would be a pity for others to be ridiculed - good steel is used on the blade, and the same is true, veto power should be used on major matters.

A few more days later, Qin Lang led the Japanese envoy to Beijing.

Wei Yan led the navy to explore and communicate the sea route directly from Kitajiuzhou to Guangling. Qin Lang and his party were on the shore near Yandu. They should have arrived in Luoyang long ago. However, when they reached the road, they encountered chaos in Guandong. Chao ordered them to stop for the time being to avoid the thief. They waited until Cao Hong arrived in Liang and Pei, and then sent a group of troops to escort them to continue on the road and take Luoyang straight.

Seventy percent of the envoys from the 23 Kingdoms of the Japanese land came from Kyushu Island, and the rest came from Honzhou Island. According to Qin Lang, the four kingdoms were all barbaric and backward tribes, which were difficult to call the country. The Japanese envoys came to Beijing to meet the emperor. Cao Mao was very happy and felt very honored. So he ordered all the ministers to discuss the ceremony of summoning and rewards.

Cui Yan first prepared rituals for Cao Mao, which was very complicated and complicated, and of course it was extremely lively. When the emperor asked all the officials, most of them directly rejected it: "Etiquette is to maintain the government and serve the far-reaching, and to emphasize reality but avoid falsehood. In the past, Emperor Wu reduced the rituals of Han, and took simplicity as the key, and Your Majesty acted against the truth?" Liu Yi, the Minister of Rites, came up with a simplified version, and the focus was on saving money. Cao Mao had no choice but to agree.

As for rewards, Liu Yi gave a report: "You can get the title of king according to the laws of the Western Regions." Shi Xun hurriedly said: "No." He said that the countries in the Western Regions had the title of king, and the Han Dynasty also had the title of king, so we cannot give them a second level and change their title of Duke and Marquis. However, in fact - "Lu Feng the previous kings in the Western Regions and unified the countries, and then Cheshi, Yanqi, Shanshan and others were named kings, which was not kings..." Although these countries had poor household registration, their areas were large, and at least equivalent to a medium-sized county in the Central Plains. However, there were twenty-three countries in the small Japanese territory - "Even if the big ones were like the evil Matai, they were not big counties. How could they be kings? The titles should not be issued lightly, and if they were given lightly, they would be cheap."

Liu Yi said that in this way, the Queen of Evil Matai could be appointed as the king, and all the others were marquis. However, Xun still opposed it and said: "Evil Matai Xiong had the intention of annexing all countries when building Zi (Jiuzhou Island). If the king was made, he would be more domineering, which was not a blessing for China. If the marquis were all marquis, there would be no difference."

Liu Yi said that even if a small man country on a remote island unified the entire Japanese territory, how powerful it would be? How could it be "not a blessing for China"? "What Ling Gong said, Xiao Xin dare not agree with it."

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, this position was established in the dynasty of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty. Originally, the scholars and officials were in charge of internal affairs. They were called Shangshu Ling, and the eunuchs were in charge of internal affairs, so they were called Zhongshu Ling. During the reign of Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty, Shi Xian was in charge of the affairs of the Central Government, and his power was above the prime minister. For the reign of Shangshu Ling, the position of Zhongshu Ling has always been respected as "Lingjun" because of its weight - for example, the famous Xun Lingjun Xun Yu. However, although Xun Yu was equivalent to the Han prime minister, he ranked second in Cao Cao's group, and the Shangshu Ling was not very high in terms of the ranks of the court. Now, the Xun is different. He is a legitimate prime minister and has been named Duke of the County, so the big guy simply created a new word and respectfully called him "Linggong".

So since the Japanese like these things, let’s give them these things, which is more cost-effective than giving gold and white jade.

Cao Mao approved the report and gave each Japanese envoy a bronze mirror, iron sword, and lead elixir and copper coins worth a thousand gold. In this regard, the current price is nearly ten times the tribute. (To be continued.)
