Although the surname Liu cannot be crowned king, but there is no problem at all with being named Duke.
After the content of the imperial edict was published, people discovered it.
The name of the enfeoffment is duke, but it is allowed to be established independently. The administrative and judicial systems, such as the system of princes and kings in the early Han Dynasty, are actually princes and kings of the opposite sex. ".
Weidi refers to the area of the ancient Wei State.
It belongs to Yizhou, Hanoi County, Hedong County in California, and Pingyuan County in Qingzhou.
Most of these sites are within the Yuan family's sphere of influence. The emperor entrusted Cao Cao with a site that was not actually controlled. Isn't this instructing Cao Cao to continue to attack Hebei and seize Jizhou and other areas?
However, what surprised the public was that Cao Cao directly rejected the emperor's reward.
And it wasn't just one rejection, it was a total of three times before giving up.
Cao Cao's actions really made everyone a little confused.
Just don't want the official position you got?
After Lu Wen heard the news, she was also very puzzled.
She had just practiced with Cao Ang.
After practicing for a while, she was a little exhausted.
When the two were resting, Lu Wen asked: "I said, what exactly is Cao Cao thinking? Why doesn't he want the title of Duke Wei? What a prestigious official position Duke Wei is! I still don't understand. Why would you not accept it?"
Cao Ang shook his head and said, "The time is not yet ripe!"
"The Central Plains is not yet unified. If you accept the title of Duke Wei, you will be criticized or even hostile by others. This will affect your future actions."
In that history, Cao Cao was granted the Duke of Wei in the 18th year of Jian'an.
But what time is it now?
It is now five years since Jian'an.
Cao Cao had just destroyed the official system of the Eastern Han Dynasty not long ago, and was promoted to prime minister by exception.
Such an approach was already a test for his subordinates.
If you still accept the title of Wei Gong now, you will really become a target of public criticism.
Although it is only a matter of time before Cao Cao replaces the Han Dynasty, if the momentum is too strong, the gains will outweigh the losses.
Therefore, you can't act too hastily now, let alone have the slightest impulsive thoughts.
After Lu Wen listened to Cao Ang's words, her doubts became more serious.
Isn't it superfluous to do so?
Although outsiders may not know it clearly, Lu Wen knows it very clearly.
What emperor Liu Xie, he is just a puppet in the hands of Cao's father and son.
Until now, she still can't forget that Cao's father and son forced Liu Xie to kill Dong Cheng.
If Cao Cao didn't mean it, how dare Liu Xie issue such an edict?
However, since it was Cao Cao's own instruction, why did he refuse it in the end?
It turned out that the reason why Cao Cao did this was to act for the Yuan family in Hebei.
The most important core of Weidi is Jizhou, and Jizhou is Yuan Shao's base camp.
This time, Liu Xie took the title of Wei Gong, and Cao Cao refused to accept the reward, which meant that he didn't want the land of Jizhou.
In order to show to those Yuan's troops, Cao Cao has not had any thoughts on Hebei in the recent period of time.
And at this moment, the external pressure suddenly decreased, just like what Guo Jia said.
When the external pressure decreases, the internal pressure will arise spontaneously.
At that time, Hebei will definitely fall into civil war.
Such a self-directed and self-acted performance is entirely his Cao operation show for others to see.
Cao Cao's refusal to accept Wei Gong's reward will not only cause Yuan's forces to fight civilly, but also gain a wave of prestige for his own reputation.
It can be said that Cao Cao has as many opportunities as he wants for this opportunity to seal Wei Gong.
If he did some kind of credit next time, Cao Cao might accept it.
But going through the process like this now is entirely to let everyone have such a consciousness in their hearts.
The so-called step-by-step, that's how it works bit by bit.
When the time is right next time, Cao Cao will do his part.
The identity of Wei Gong is very important to Cao Cao, and it can be said that it must be done to replace the Han Dynasty.
Cao Cao in history still needs to wait 14 years to complete.
However, now Cao Cao doesn't have to wait such a long time at all.
Cao Ang had already planned for this. After a year, he would assist Cao Cao to take this position.
Although Lu Wen didn't understand, she can be said to be very satisfied with Cao Ang now.
Because Lu Wen beheaded Liu Bei, so on top of the reward, Cao Ang told the story.
Therefore, she, Lu Wen, has also been promoted to Dongwu Tinghou now.
Although this Lu Wen is only a small pavilion marquis, but no matter what, she is a marquis.
Back then, Li Guang, the parachutist, was not even able to be named Marquis.
And Lv Wen is just a female generation, but she has already been enshrined as a marquis. She is also quite satisfied, and even feels that she has realized the value of life.
Of course, all this needs to be thanks to Cao Ang.
At this moment, Diao Chan came to Cao Ang and said, "Husband, Mr. Shui Jing and Mr. Shi Yuan are here to visit."

Chapter 212 An Opportunity to Practice
After Cao Ang heard Diao Chan's words, he was also a little puzzled.
