88 – Emperor Yiryeong (4)

Those who have power, naturally want to use that power.

Cao Cao began to enjoy ‘real power’ by using the name of the Emperor.

He made a plan to elevate himself from General Jindong to General, and also gave high positions to military officers who had been commissioned under him since the anti-Dongtak Allied Forces era.

He granted official positions to his people, and gave various feudal lords around the world positions that suited his tastes.

Yes, it was awarded.

What intention would the Emperor have in granting official positions to feudal lords whom he had never met?

Still, I am grateful to you for participating in the anti-Dong Tak coalition?

To commemorate the emperor’s escape from Chang’an and the protection of a feudal lord who moved for the Han imperial family?

no.

Cao Cao didn’t want to get into trouble with his feudal lords, so he tried to appease them with official positions and honor.

After Cao Cao became a collaborator, he only oiled the relationship in advance so that other warlords would form an alliance and not regard Cao Cao as their second-in-command.

It means asking people not to attack someone who is strong.

It means that if a weak person does not listen to my orders, he will be treated as a traitor and will be dealt with severely.

The first scapegoat who was not a scapegoat was Xuzhou’s daughter, Liu Bei.

-If Western Zhou Jaja does not attack Yuan Shu, he is a traitor!

-Follow the Emperor’s commandments.

-uh? Did you say it was a nickname? We never gave such an order?

-…New Seoju company Hyeondeok Yoo. We want to subdue a traitor from the Han imperial family.

He wanted to follow Cao Cao’s secret orders on the grounds that he was loyal to the imperial family, raised an army, and set off for Xuzhou.

Liu Bei, who until now had remained motionless despite Lu Bu’s disputes, Yuan Shu’s dispatch of a large army, and Cheongju’s request for reinforcements, began to lead a large army south with a letter from the emperor.

Thus, Cao Cao was convinced of the reality of great power.

-If you do not follow the teachings of the Emperor, you are a traitor!

-How can there be such a scumbag!

-I made this feudal lord move! I can control the feudal lords!

Collaborator, Emperor Yiryeong!

Carrying the Emperor on his back, he makes various feudal lords do as he wants!

In the name of the Emperor’s command, Cao Cao could truly control his feudal lords with a single letter!

A world has been prepared where when Cao Cao tells you to live, you live, and when Cao Cao tells you to die, you die!

“Yuan Shao tore up the letter with the secret name written on it.”

At Sunuk’s words, Jojo lay down with his hand on his forehead.

Her body was filled with the smell of alcohol, and it seemed like she didn’t want to think about anything.

Since there were only female staff members, they did not particularly complain about Jo Jo’s actions.

“Jukong, now is not the time for you to do that.”

“We have to come up with a solution quickly.”

“General Jindong thinks of solutions to his mistakes, not the kind of person who gets drunk and throws everything away.”

“…….”

It was simply a request for the desired attitude from the ruler of one power.

“It’s sad.”

Jojo’s voice was full of resentment.

“Do you know how much I have been compared to Yuan Shao, that guy, since I was young?”

“Joo-gong, just say that….”

“I know! I’ve said this over and over again! But it’s unfair, so what can you do?”

The hardest thing is listening to someone who is drunk and lamenting about their situation.

“How long do I have to live under that bastard?”

The other staff tried to hold back and open their mouths, but Kwak Ga, who was most familiar with alcohol, calmed the others down and whispered.

‘Once you spit it out, you’ll be fine.’

The staff decided to just listen to the drunkards. As the staff remained silent, Jo Jo pounded his chest and sighed.

“I am the child of a eunuch, and he is the child of a noble family! Starting with the comparison based on our backgrounds, people treated me as if I were that bastard’s concubine! I was agonizing over whether to eat pork or beef with my drink. “Even though I have no intention of marrying him!”

Cao Cao began to vent his dissatisfaction with Yuan Shao.

“It was the same during the anti-Dong-Tak coalition! The leader of the coalition was the guy who ran away to his hometown because he was afraid of Dong-Tak! When I risked my life to go to Dong-Tak’s bed and take out Chilseong Bodo, that guy was cutting the pork that I had been worrying about for a while with a knife! When I, a woman, went into the bedroom to kill Dong-tak, there were some who said that I seduced Dong-tak with my body. What did that guy Won So do? This is it!”

“Joo Gong.”

“Yes! After the anti-Dong Zhuo allied forces were disbanded, I succeeded in making a comeback with his help? I admit it! I admit it! Ah, Duke Wen of Hebei! Thanks to your grace like that of Hae-hae, this Cao Maeng-deok was able to take over Yeongju. So! The position of Yeongyeonmok that Duke Won gave me was so sweet that I didn’t want to lose it!”

Transfer of collaborators.

The government position that Cao Cao held was ‘a gift from Yuan Shao.’

Just as in Ikju far away, upon the death of Yu Eon, Yujang took over the position of the Ikju governor and competed with the Ikju governor dispatched by the government, there were many cases in the world where people were fighting over the same official position.

And the position of Yeongyeonmok that Cao Cao held was no different from a false government position in that it was not a government position given by the emperor in Changan.

It has now become a real official position recognized by the Han imperial family. Although it is a peace inspired by a woman named Jo Maeng-deok.

“I received so much from Yuan Shao! That’s why I’m repaying what I received in a big way this time! I told you I’d give you the position of crown prince, not just anything else! Then you should know how to be satisfied!”

Jojo groaned, pulling his hair out.

“Yes. My mother bought the position of Crown Prince with money. I know very well that it is like an honorary position with no real power. But what is that? Aren’t I the one who protects the emperor, pays his salary, and feeds him? Yuan Shao is in the imperial family. “I don’t even pay taxes or grain, so of course I should be in a higher government position!”

The truth that is not revealed to others.

“Why am I so much worse than that guy from the original family that I have to live under his shadow for the rest of my life? Why!!”

complex.

It was anger that was the result of a combination of all circumstances, including gender, family, and ability.

Jo Maeng-deok is jealous of Won Won-cho.

“You lived your whole life lying face down under the elements.”

Jojo covered his eyes with his hands as Sunuk spoke.

The teary eyes I could see were quite red.

“But lie down a little longer.”

“…until when?”

What Guo Jia said was true.

Although his voice was still gloomy, JoJo began to calm down, as if he had vomited out all the alcohol that had been building up in his body just a moment ago.

“Tell me specifically. How much longer will I have to bow down and bow my head to this guy?”

“I hate to tell you this, but please lower your guard until you can’t see the silver sword held under your chest.”

Jojo raised his head at Jeongwook’s words.

“A silver sword?”

“Yes. Yuan Shao is a person who will not bow his head on his own. So, we must make him bow his head. This will unleash the mystery of making everyone bow their heads equally.”

“If you drive a silver sword into the heart, anyone will fall to their knees.”

“…….”

JoJo sighed deeply.

“Hold on, hold on, hold on again.”

“The time will come someday.”

“Okay. Then let’s just bow down for now. Now… it’s so humiliating.”

Jojo unfolded a piece of silk with a tearful face.

“…In the letter, I need to wet my tears along with the food.”

Yuan Shao declines the position of crown prince.

Cao Cao, in tears, insists that the Emperor give Yuan Shao an official position.

* * *

“Everyone, listen. This time, an envoy from the government has arrived. He said that Cao Cao dared to reject the position of general that was offered to him and recommended me, Won Won-cho.”

At Yuan Shao’s words, the staff twitched the corners of their mouths and laughed at Cao Cao. Most of them had an expression on their face that said, ‘I messed around and it worked out well.’

“What should I do now?”

“It is still inconvenient to have an official position given by the current emperor, but the title of Grand General is worth discussing.”

“That’s right. The title of Crown Prince is not worth receiving at all, but isn’t the position of general a position where one can exercise influence over military power?”

“If you take the position of general, you will be able to put more pressure on Gongsun Zan. I agree with you, general.”

“Now that I’ve been beaten once, even Cao Cao won’t dare to mess around with me. I’ll never be able to mess around with school papers again.”

“As for making a fool of yourself. Of course, you have to get hit, but aren’t you still your master’s friend?”

“hahahaha. He Yu-gong, you are such a cocky woman-”

“stop.”

Yuan Shao raised his hand and interrupted the advisors.

“Although the current emperor is the emperor established by Dong Zhuo, it is an undeniable fact that he is the Son of Heaven. He is the royal blood of Han’s great-grandfather. Is that right?”

“That’s right.”

“Then who are the other virtuous adults of imperial bloodline?”

“…….”

A man flashed in everyone’s mind.

If I hadn’t been rejected, a man who would have been honored as the emperor of his time by now kept flashing in my eyes.

A man who could become the Son of Heaven.

If he had wanted to become Emperor, he would not have had his head hung on the wall along with his entire family.

“No. Then, unless the emperor is legitimate, we cannot continue to deny the current emperor. I will gladly accept the position of general.”

No thanks were expressed.

I’m just satisfied with getting what I deserve.

“Think about how much more you would ask for than a general. A general would literally have to be obtained at the ‘minimum’. This wonwoncho should be able to hold an official position next to the emperor in this country. Above all….”

From noble mtl dot com

bang!

Yuan Shao hit the tear-stained letter with his fist.

“You should have a higher official position than this arrogant woman who squeezes the juice out of her eyes to insult this elemental.”

Yuan Won accepts the position of general.

“The Duke of Zhou, there is news that Yuan Shao is gathering his soldiers north of the Yellow River.”

“Damn it, tell them to come! Let’s see whose sword is sharper!”

“Warring the elements now is a path to death for everyone.”

“Please be patient, Lord Zhou.”

“…Damn, should I at least make him the king of Hebei? Damn you!”

element. General. Gi Joo Mok. He becomes the governor of Byeongju, Yuju, and Cheongju.

Jojo. He gives up his position as general and takes the position of boatman. Recommend yourself as the general of that place.

“Won So, laugh hard now. I will definitely stab a dagger into your heart. Sigh.”

Cao Cao drank his drink and buried his head in relief at the news that Yuan Shao’s tens of thousands of troops gathered in front of the Yellow River had retreated.

“……Within ten years, I will definitely take revenge.”

Jojo put the silk with “General” written next to his name in a box and placed it under his bed.

“certainly.”

“Joo Gong! We’re in big trouble!”

“What! Whoa, did Yuan Shao even come across the Yellow River?!”

“Lü Bu has taken over Xuzhou…Hebi!”

“…….”
