"I have seen General Xu."

After all, Xu Chu is the shadow of Cao Cao. In the Cao clan, his status is respected, and even Cao Jie does not dare to make trouble.

"Miss Jie, I'm sorry to disturb your rendezvous with your husband." Xu Chu looked at Cao Jie apologetically and said, Cao Jie's face flushed with shame.

"But I have something important to do, so please forgive me if I'm rude."

After Xu Chu finished speaking, he looked at Su Chen, "Sir, hurry up with me to see the Prime Minister."

"Okay." Su Chen nodded, then glanced at Cao Jie with a smile, and followed Xu Chu.

On the way, Su Chencai asked in a low voice, "Zhongkang, what happened?"

"There is a battle report from Hefei." Xu Chu replied.

"Hefei?"

Su Chen originally thought that something had happened in Xuchang, but he didn't expect it to be the battle report from Hefei.

But count the time, the Hefei war is indeed almost over.

After he led the troops to withdraw, Zhou Yu did not go to Hefei to support Sun Quan, but returned to Chaisang to recuperate. Lü Meng was also anxious because of the heavy losses, and followed Zhou Yu to recuperate in Chaisang.

Therefore, Sun Quan's fiasco in Hefei was doomed without any assistance.

After all, Sun Quan's ability to lead troops is really not on the table.

soon.

Xu Chu drove the carriage to a stop at the Prime Minister's Mansion again, and then, together with Su Chen, hurriedly walked towards the conference hall.

at this time.

in the conference hall.

The people who had already dispersed were summoned back by Cao Cao again, and the people gathered together and were discussing in a low voice.

Although they already knew that there was a war coming from Hefei, no one knew how, and everyone was waiting for Cao Cao to speak.

It's just that Cao Cao has been closing his eyes and resting, as if he is waiting for someone.

The people in the field naturally knew very well that Cao Cao was waiting for Su Chen.

"Prime Minister, I brought Su offering wine." Xu Chu's loud voice sounded in the hall, and everyone suddenly laughed.

Su Chen is here.

And Cao Cao, who was in the main seat, also opened his eyes, and looked at Su Chen with one pair of eyes, and then, a very rich smile appeared on Cao Cao's face.

"Master, you are here."

Cao Cao laughed, picked up the bamboo slip on the table, spread it out and glanced at it, and then looked at the crowd, "Do you know why I am waiting for the military advisor with you?"

"This...I don't know."

"Prime Minister, could it be that Su Jijiu has made some great achievements?"

said the crowd.

"Not bad." Cao Cao nodded, and then, in the eyes of everyone's surprise, smiled, "The military division's contribution to this battle is indeed not small."

Cao Cao smiled so brightly that his face became much better.

This made everyone in the field even more puzzled. What was the credit that allowed the Prime Minister to do this?

Cao Cao didn't sell Guanzi for too long. He laughed for a while before saying, "Zhang Liao sent a letter, and with eight hundred elites, he will defeat Sun Quan's army of [-]."

"Now that Sun Quan has led the remnants back to Jiangdong, and the siege of Hefei has been resolved, I can breathe a sigh of relief."

"In this battle, Zhang Liao had a big shock in Xiaoyaojin, and his name was world-famous. In Jiangdong, he had the notoriety of making children stop crying."

"And Zhang Liao's increase of troops to guard Hefei is exactly the counselor's idea.".

Chapter 230

Prime Minister's House.

Conference hall.

After Cao Cao finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but compliment Su Chen.

"Su Jijiu not only has both civil and military skills, but also knows people and employs people far beyond ordinary people."

"Zhang Liao has made such a feat, thanks to the proper arrangement of Su Jijiu!"

"I'll admire it."

For this matter, everyone admired from the bottom of their hearts.

The eyes that looked at Su Chen were also different.

This is an all-rounder. I'm afraid he can't lose to Zhang Liang who helped Liu Bang, the king of the Han Dynasty, to achieve the great cause of unification in the early Han Dynasty.

"Everyone is wrong, this battle depends on Zhang Wenyuan's bravery, and it has little to do with me."

Su Chen shook his head, he couldn't take credit at this time.

After all, it was Zhang Liao who defeated the [-]-strong Jiangdong army with [-] elites, not him.

If he should take this credit at this time, what will the world think?

I thought he was the kind of villain who took credit, but it was more than worth the loss.

However, Su Chen is humble, and the people in the field are completely unbelievable.

Even Cao Cao shook his head with a smile. He naturally understood Su Chen's scruples, so he didn't want to force Su Chen any reward.

All these things can be well known in everyone's heart.

Anyway, all he wanted was to help Su Chen improve his reputation.

"Okay, Hefei wins, and Jiangdong will no longer have any threats for the time being."

"Han Sui and Ma Chao in the north were also driven back to the old nest in Xiliang. In a short period of time, they won't be able to make any waves."

"So what I'm going to say next is the big thing to discuss with you."

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the field, and everyone looked up at Cao Cao in surprise.

What else can be more important than the victory of Hefei?

Cao Cao didn't say anything, but glanced at Cheng Yu lightly, the latter seemed to have been prepared for a long time, smiled and smiled, cupped his hands and smiled: "Now under the Prime Minister's rule, the people of each state live and work in peace, no disasters outside, no people inside. Chaos, peace in the world, this is a sign of heaven."

"That's why the old minister urges the prime minister to confer the title of Duke Wei, so that the top can go directly to Tianting, and the bottom can lead the ministers. In this way, it is the blessing of the great Han and the blessing of the people."

After Cheng Yu finished speaking, Xun Yu's 03 face changed wildly. He gave Cheng Yu an ugly look, and then looked at Cao Cao.

Because he knew that this was probably not what Cheng Yu meant, but an instruction from Cao Cao.

After all, the duke is a duke. From the emperor of Zhou, he divided the world into five ranks, duke, marquis, earl, viscount, and baron.

The duke has the highest status and is only under the emperor. He has to add nine tins to establish a vassal state, and can set up a capital, arrange various official positions, and appoint large and small officials.

It can be said that after becoming a duke, he directly established a kingdom within a kingdom. In his own country, he is the real emperor.

Its status and identity are far above other princes.

And most importantly, since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Duke has been removed, and for four hundred years, no one has become a Duke.

And once you become a duke, you will have the qualification to split the earth and seal the king. At that time, it will be an imperial edict, and you can disrespect it.

Be the real first person.

Although Cao Cao at this time was the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, he had already done what he could only do as the King of Wei.

He was in charge of the appointment of civil and military officials, and the army was also firmly controlled by Cao Cao. He also designated Xuchang as the capital and named Xudu. On the bright side, the Han Dynasty had two imperial courts.

The court controlled by Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, was nothing but a veritable puppet.

But even so, although all these things are well known to everyone, they have not been put on the table after all, and they have reserved a trace of face for the Han Dynasty and a bit of dignity for the emperor.

But if Cao Cao really declared himself a prince and made him a king, then all this would be completely announced to the world.

In this way, the emperor's majesty is ruthlessly trampled on, which shows that he does not put the emperor in his eyes, but wants to excavate the foundation of the big man for [-] years!

In Xun Yu's heart, naturally, he would not agree.

So, he immediately withdrew his gaze towards Cao Cao, walked out, glared at Cheng Yu and said, "Zhongde's words are ridiculous, now the world is not at peace, there are still wars in various places, and the people are displaced, how can you say that you can live and work in peace and contentment?"

"What's more, there are rumors all over the city of Xuchang, assassins are rampant, and even the two sons are injured and recuperate. The internal worries are still there, and the foundation is unstable."

"So about the matter of adding Duke Wei, please think twice before the Prime Minister."

Xun Yu gave Cheng Yu a few words, and although Cheng Yu was helpless, he didn't care.

Different road non-phase plan.

Cheng Yu still has a big man in his heart, but he doesn't have it.

In his heart, only the Prime Minister Cao Cao.

Therefore, after Cao Cao said a few words, he chose to support it without hesitation, and proposed it at this time.

Cao Cao added the title of Duke Wei, the advantages far outweighed the disadvantages.

And the only drawback is that it violated the ancestral system of the Han Dynasty and damaged the prestige of the emperor.

But how much majesty does the emperor today still have?Just a puppet, not worth mentioning.

But Cheng Yu didn't refute Xun Yu, because these things, he didn't need to speak at all, and he couldn't sit still.

really.

After Xun Yu objected, those generals couldn't sit still at first.

They followed Cao Cao to conquer the world, they were born and died, and they pinned their heads to the belts of their trousers. What did they do?Isn't that just adding an official and a noble?

If Cao Cao can become the Duke of Wei, then the nominal power will be greater, and the more official positions can be added, and then they will naturally be able to obtain greater benefits.

So for them, let alone let Cao Cao seal the Duke of Wei, even if Cao Cao kills the emperor Liu Xie and establishes a new dynasty, they will support it with both hands, and kill all those who oppose it!

"Master Xun, are you alarmist?" Xiahou Dun was short-tempered, and at first he couldn't bear it anymore, so he stood out and glared at Xun Yu and said, "The prime minister first destroys Yuan Shao, then Yuan Shu and Lu Bu, and later drives out Liu Bei and suppresses Jiangdong. , Xiliang, great credit."

"If there is no Prime Minister, I am afraid that the emperor will not live now, and the Central Plains will have been affected by the war long ago. How can the people have such a stable life today?"
