Mi Han

Chapter 314

Chapter 314

It was not night when Mi Yang arrived, and the light in Guan Yu's mourning hall was not dark.

So when Mi Yang pushed open the door of the mourning hall and looked into the mourning hall, he saw Liu Bei in plain clothes sitting under Guan Yu's tablet at a glance.

In the memory of Mi Yang in the past, although Liu Bei was over sixty years old, he had always been quite tough in appearance.

It's just that when Mi Yang saw Liu Bei again today, he suddenly found that there were a lot more silver threads on Liu Bei's head, and Liu Bei's mental appearance was even more decadent.

A pair of sunken red eye sockets and a pale and colorless face reflected how sad Liu Bei had been through the past few days.

What Mi Yang didn't expect was that the old and vigorous Liu Bei had shown such a sluggish state after only seeing him for a few days.

No wonder Fei Yi specially reminded him to persuade Liu Bei for the big man just before he came in.

Indeed, if Liu Bei continues to be sad like this, Liu Bei's body will be dragged down by his extremely sad mood.

And at the moment when Mi Yang saw Liu Bei, Liu Bei, who realized Mi Yang's arrival, turned his eyes to Mi Yang who was standing at the door.

When Liu Bei looked at Mi Yang in a blink of an eye, the sunlight behind Mi Yang was shining on Liu Bei's face through the passage of the open door.

While the bright sunlight illuminated Liu Bei's sad expression more clearly, it also made him look at Mi Yang with scrutiny.

It's just that the scrutiny in Liu Bei's eyes was fleeting, so even Mi Yang didn't notice it.

After Mi Yang saw Liu Bei looking towards him, he first entered Guan Yu's mourning hall and closed the door behind him.

Then he stood at the door and bowed deeply to Guan Yu's tablet a few steps away.

After making a deep obeisance to Guan Yu's tablet, Mi Yang took another step forward and repeated his deep obeisance.

And when Mi Yang stood up after deep worship, he would spread his hands and hit his chest three times in a row.

Profound worship is a very important etiquette in this world, and the gesture of mourning performed by Mi Yang is one of the highest etiquettes for younger generations to express their deep condolences for the death of their elders.

After bowing deeply step by step, Mi Yang came to Liu Bei with a sad expression.

When Mi Yang saluted Guan Yu's tablet just now, Liu Bei didn't make a sound to stop him.

But after Mi Yang finished his salute and stood beside him, Liu Bei looked up at Mi Yang's face, and he said to Mi Yang full of sadness:

"Zicheng, Yunchang still left us."

When Liu Bei said this, his voice was extremely hoarse.

After Mi Yang heard Liu Bei's words, tears appeared in his eyes instantly, and he knelt down beside Liu Bei in an instant.

Although he wanted to say something to comfort Liu Bei, he found that at the moment when he saw Guan Yu's tablet, he couldn't restrain the sadness in his heart, so how could he comfort others?

As for the relationship between Liu Bei and Guan Yu, no matter how good consolation others say, how effective will it be?

Liu Bei saw Mi Yang crying and sitting next to him, and there was a look of love in his eyes.

When Yun Chang was here, he didn't value the wrong person, and he didn't love the wrong person in the past.

It's just that Liu Bei specially summoned Mi Yang from Fancheng, it must not be as simple as simply asking Mi Yang to come to mourn.

Seeing that Mi Yang was already by his side, Liu Bei picked up a bamboo slip from in front of him and handed it to Mi Yang, motioning for Mi Yang to unfold it.

Under Liu Bei's signal, although Mi Yang was a little surprised by Liu Bei's move, he quickly took the bamboo slips that Liu Bei handed over and looked at them carefully.

This bamboo slip was sorted out by Dong Yun and Fei Yi, and it is about the suggestions of the ministers in Xinye on Guan Yu's posthumous title during this period.

Because there were many ministers who followed Liu Bei to Xinye, there were also many posthumous titles bestowed on Guan Yu by the two servants.

Those many posthumous titles are all beautiful posthumous titles.

Among the many beautiful posthumous posthumous titles, there are even many posthumous posthumous titles representing the highest honor of Han Dynasty officials.

You must know that in the Han Dynasty, the requirements for posthumous titles were very strict, which was different from the posthumous titles of ten digits in later generations. For 400 years in the Han Dynasty, even emperors could only have double posthumous titles.

So if a Hanchen can also be awarded double posthumous titles, that would be a great honor.

And just after Mi Yang read the contents of the bamboo slips in his hand at a very fast speed, he also found that among the many beautiful posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous titles, several posthumous posthumous titles were circled by Liu Bei's ink pen.

Undoubtedly, those beautiful posthumous titles are the candidate posthumous titles for Guan Yu in Liu Bei's mind.

It's just that maybe he wanted to give Guan Yu an excellent posthumous title, so Liu Bei didn't really decide which beautiful posthumous title he would give Guan Yu.

And when Mi Yang was looking at the contents of the bamboo slips in his hand, Liu Bei's gaze was fixed on him.

Seeing that Mi Yang had already read the contents of this bamboo slip, Liu Bei asked Mi Yang softly:

"Remember?"

Perhaps Mi Yang immediately thought that Liu Bei's purpose of asking him was whether he remembered the many beautiful posthumous titles in this bamboo slip.

But after thinking about it, Mi Yang knew that Liu Bei didn't need to let him remember other beautiful posthumous titles.

Moreover, in such a short period of time, it is not easy to remember the many beautiful posthumous titles.

Presumably what Liu Bei wants him to remember is the beautiful posthumous titles he circled with a red pen.

So although the time is short, it is not difficult for Mi Yang.

So under Liu Bei's question, Mi Yang closed the bamboo slips in his hand and replied to Liu Bei, "I remember it."

Seeing that Mi Yang had remembered it, a trace of relief appeared in Liu Bei's eyes.

He reached out and took the bamboo slip from Mi Yang's hand, and under Mi Yang's gaze, he threw the bamboo slip into the brazier in front of him.

Seeing Liu Bei's move, Mi Yang couldn't help being surprised.

Because originally Mi Yang thought that Liu Bei asked him to read the bamboo slips in order to let him help him choose a beautiful posthumous posthumous title for Guan Yu.

But what I didn't expect was that after he read the contents of the bamboo slips, Liu Bei threw this beautiful posthumous posthumous collection, which was thought up by many ministers, into the fire.

On the surface, it seems that Liu Bei is going to show Guan Yu the posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous title which represents the high recognition of Guan Yu by all the ministers.

However, as a time traveler, Mi Yang, under Liu Bei's action, remembered something that he felt a little incomprehensible when he read "Three Kingdoms" in his previous life.

That's why Liu Bei never gave Guan Yu a posthumous title in the years after Guan Yu's death.

After all, with Liu Bei's feelings for Guan Yu, this behavior is undoubtedly abnormal.

This made him have some guesses in his heart.

The bamboo slips made crackling sounds under the flames in the brazier.

And looking at the flames that suddenly sprang up because the bamboo slips were put into the basin, Liu Bei's next words seemed to be spoken to Guan Yu's undead, which proved the guesses in Mi Yang's mind.

"Until the world is unified, I will not bestow Yun Chang with a posthumous title."

After Liu Bei's words came out, he felt that his guess in his heart had been confirmed, so he quickly lowered his head.

If his predictions are correct, what Liu Bei will say next will not be recorded in the annals of history, but it is almost equivalent to the words of his "legacy".

"Although these dozens of beautiful posthumous posthumous titles are good, they are all customized according to Yun Chang's title of Marquis of Xiangyang before his death.

Just because of Yun Chang's contribution, how can his title be limited to Marquis? "

"Yun Chang should be proclaimed king!"

"It's just that the time has not come yet. In that case, I might as well not grant Yun Chang a posthumous posthumous title for now."

Liu Bei's few short words revealed all the secrets in his heart, and also caused Mi Yang, who heard these words, to set off a storm in his heart.

The words "Yun Chang should be proclaimed king" were uttered by Liu Bei, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, and it shocked Mi Yang greatly.

At that time, Liu Bang, the Taizu of the Han Dynasty, vowed to punish the white horse: "If it is not the Liu family, it will be the king, if it is not meritorious, it will be the marquis, and the world will attack it together."

This sentence has been regarded as the golden rule by the rulers surnamed Liu in the Han Dynasty for 400 years.

But I didn't expect that Liu Bei, who is a descendant of the Han Taizu Miao, would take the initiative to reveal in front of Mi Yang that he wanted to pursue Guan Yu as king.

Although Liu Bei was talking about chasing the seal, not the actual seal.

This shows that Liu Bei bestowed the title of prince on Guan Yu only as an honor, but it was enough to shock Mi Yang.

The fact that Liu Bei could have this idea in his mind not only proved Guan Yu's status in his heart, but also proved that Liu Bei was a very courageous king.

After all, strictly speaking, Liu Bei's idea can be regarded as violating the ancestral system.

After knowing Liu Bei's thoughts, a vague historical clue in Mi Yang's mind was instantly connected.

No wonder in history, after Liu Bei learned of Guan Yu's death, he never gave Guan Yu a posthumous title until before his death.

And Liu Bei's move was also believed by many people in later generations that he was blaming Guan Yu.

But now Mi Yang can know from Liu Bei's idea that in history, Liu Bei didn't want to give Guan Yu a posthumous title.

But before he has made enough credit for himself, he cannot easily give Guan Yu a posthumous title.

If you want to determine your posthumous title, you must first clarify your title.

Whether in history or in this life, Liu Bei is the king who started the country and created the foundation.

Such an identity determines that every decision he makes will be regarded as ancestral system by his future king.

If the king of future generations did not surpass his achievements, it would be difficult for the king of future generations to change the decision he made.

So once Liu Bei gave Guan Yu a posthumous posthumous title when he was a lieutenant before his death.

Then in the big man established by Liu Bei, Guan Yu may always be the title of Marquis.

And this is undoubtedly contrary to Liu Bei's true thoughts.

As for Liu Bei's idea of ​​chasing Guan Yu as king, why didn't he just issue an edict to pursue it?

This is because the ancestral system left by Liu Bang back then had too much influence in the hearts of people all over the world.

Although carefully discussed, the "king of different surnames" that Liu Bang vowed to strictly prohibit in the past and the king that Liu Bei wants to pursue today are actually two different things.

But when Liu Bei has not made achievements that are comparable to Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, then he cannot easily touch this ancestral system on the face of it, because it will make the great Han established by Liu Bei lose its orthodoxy.

So what Liu Bei thinks is to implement his ideas after the reunification of the world in the Han Dynasty.

Perhaps the ancestral system is often difficult to change, but it does not mean that it cannot be changed at all.

Take the 400 years of the Han Dynasty as an example, there are many examples of emperors who have made great achievements and changed the ancestral system.

For example, after Liu Bang established the Dahan, the five elements he originally set for the Dahan were water, and the whole country was still black.

The five virtues were of great importance to a dynasty in ancient times. It is no exaggeration to say that they are one of the orthodox symbols of the founding of a country.

However, when Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty was in power, he followed the minister's suggestion to change the attribute of the five virtues of the great Han to soil, and the color of the whole country to Shanghuang.

After Han Shizu established the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu followed suit and directly changed the Tude of the Great Han Dynasty set by Liu Che to Huode, and it has continued to this day.

Both Liu Che and Liu Xiu's actions were slapping their ancestors in the mouth and violating the ancestral system established by Liu Bang.

It may also affect their orthodoxy to a certain extent.

But because of the great achievements of these two people, no one dared to come out and force anything.

Historians of later generations can even find various reasons to argue that the five virtues chosen by the three Han emperors, Liu Bang, Liu Che, and Liu Xiu, are all correct.

It can be seen from this that it is not impossible for future emperors to change the ancestral system, but the premise is that they must have enough great achievements.

As far as Liu Bei is concerned, because of Liu Xiu's role model, his idea of ​​chasing Guan Yu as king is not unrealistic.

As long as he can reunify the world and restore the orthodox position of the big man in the world.

It's just that since Liu Bei had this idea, why did he say it to Mi Yang?

That's because Liu Bei felt that he was already very old, and perhaps in his lifetime, the big man could not be unified in his hands.

But despite this, his desire to pursue Guan Yu will not change.

That's why he specially summoned Mi Yang to tell him the secret in his heart.

Because according to common sense, if the big man can unify the world in the future, it will most likely be done in the hands of Mi Yang's generation.

After Liu Bei finished what he just said, he looked at Mi Yang with expectant eyes, and said to him: "Zicheng, do you understand what I mean by what I said to you today?"

Mi Yang is such an ingenious person. Although Liu Bei never said anything to him, the deep meaning he expressed in front of him was fully revealed.

Liu Bei obviously wanted him to fulfill this inner idea for him on the day when the big men could be reunified.

Historically, Liu Bei should have informed Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang of similar ideas, so Liu Chan did not give Guan Yu a posthumous title for a long time.

The year when Liu Chan became Guan Yu's posthumous title was more than 20 years after Zhuge Liang's death.

At that time, Ji Han had no chance of making a comeback, so Liu Chan had no choice but to give Guan Yu a posthumous title.

It's just that when Liu Bei chose to hand over to Mi Yang in this life, Mi Yang was shocked by Liu Bei's deep love for Guan Yu, and was also shocked by Liu Bei's trust in him.

The profound political meaning released by Liu Bei is even more intriguing.

He straightened his kneeling body, and made a solemn promise to Liu Bei under Guan Yu's spiritual seat: "Yang vows not to disappoint His Majesty."
