Chapter 529 Champion Hou

Three days later, the three public resolutions announced that Fang Yun was specially granted the title of marquis. Almost at the same time, news came out of Wumu Mansion, allowing Fang Yun to be granted marquis.

The documents from the Hall of Supreme Harmony and Military Affairs Office were sent to the central Purple Qi Hall deep in the palace almost at the same time.

When Fang Yun was granted a title to the marquis, it was basically settled. According to past practice, after the Three Dukes and Wu Mu agreed, there would generally be no objection.

The Military Affairs Office and the Hall of Supreme and the delivery of formal enthronement documents is more than a form that shows respect for the royal family. Unless it is particularly serious, the general emperor opposes the resolutions of the Military Affairs Office and the Hall of Supreme.

Shangjing City was completely boiling, and the three marquises were extremely glorious. No one expected that under such a big controversy, the Fang family would finally get the consent of the Six Tribes, Three Dukes and Wu Mu.

However, although the decision has been made, there are still voices of objection in various parts of Jiuzhou. There are still strong oppositions to the three marquises of the Fang family. Some radical Confucian scholars even cried bitterly, accusing that if the world dies a hundred years later, the root of disaster will be today.

Despite this, the voices of support have already gained an absolute advantage. Whether it is the Lantern Festival literary test, the three poems to persuade grandfathers, the interpretation of the monarch and ministers, or the verbal battles between the scholars of the Ministry of War, Fang Yun has a very high voice among Confucian scholars.

The strong back of the military strategist and the profound Confucianism of the Confucianism made Fang Yun’s title of marquis not so unacceptable. No matter what kind of disasters the "three marquises" will leave in the future, at least the father and son of the Fang family will have no problem, which will make the world admire you!

Fang Yin, the marquis of Sifang, has been guarding the wilderness for twenty years and has killed countless alien races; his eldest son Fang Lin, who conquered the Yi tribe in the north, defeated Xie Daoyun, a strange girl from Di Huang; his second son Fang Yun, who killed countless enemies, and at the same time, both civil and military. Such a three marquis, loyal and martyrdom, made the Fang family respect the world!

However, immediately following Fang Yun’s title was a headache for the six ministries and ministers. Fang Yin was named “Sifang Hou” and Fang Lin was named “Qingyi Hou”. What marquis should Fang Yun be named?

For a time, military strategists and Confucianism became lively again. "Three Marquises" were unprecedented. If Fang Yun's name had no characteristics, it would be criticized. Moreover, among the father and son of the Fang family, Fang Yun is the most special.

Fang Yun is proficient in almost all military strategies, poetry and articles. This has made many military generals, literati, and other Fang Yun have a wonderful favor.

The purpose of titles is very sophisticated. It must have a specific meaning and must be in line with its name. It must be recognized by the people of the world, at least it must have its origin. It is not easy to take out the titles that are recognized by military strategists and Confucians!

In the yamen of the Ministry of Rites, great scholars gathered. In addition to the officials of the six ministries, some generals and princes were invited to plan the issue of Fang Yun's title of marquis. Time was very tight. According to convention, after sending formal documents from the Military Affairs Office and the Three Dukes to the royal family, within seven days, you must have the title of the new prince.

The six ministries did not come up with a suitable name for five consecutive days, so they came up with this bad strategy, summoning great scholars with profound knowledge in the court and military generals to participate.

"How about Fang Yun, who is both wise and brave, is it better to be called Zhiyonghou?"

A general suggested.

"Not good. We have thought about this name earlier. If someone else is replaced, it's okay to be wise and brave. It's a normal rule. If it is used on General Fang, it may be a bit bad."

The Minister of Rites Zhang Gongqi immediately shook his head. The Ministry of Rites has always been responsible for the title of a marquis, so the Ministry of Rites was also responsible for this discussion.

"How about civil and military affairs? General Fang is both civil and military, and he should be named as the Marquis of Wenwu."

Another general.

"No, the name of 'wu' can be given, and only Marquis of Wu can be used. Although General Fang has outstanding military achievements, he is even a versatile talent in civil and military affairs. However, he has no noble blood and no royal family grants him. The name of 'wu' must not be included in the title."

This proposal was quickly denied.

"Marquis Ping Yao? General Fang is the general Ping Yao. If he is a marquis, he might as well be called Ping Yaohou!"

Another general shouted.

As soon as this proposal was made, everyone shook their heads. This name is really unpleasant.

"The Battle of Manghuang is just one of General Fang's experiences in the battle. It does not represent all his battles! This proposal is inappropriate."

One of them said.

"General Fang's military mother was very kind. He once used poetry to reconcile Mrs. Huayang and Liu Zhengxun's true scholars, which was said to be a good talk. He also served his brother with tibi, and once impeached Wuhou for his brother. How about the title of "Filial Piety"?

This is the proposal of a great scholar.

This proposal was immediately opposed by the military clans: "No. General Fang not only has the meaning of filial piety and brotherhood, but also a martial arts genius. At a young age, he has the cultivation level of the Tianchong Realm. If he is given a title of filial piety and brotherhood, he may be biased."

A civilian, Hou Dao.

"General Fang's poems and articles are extremely outstanding, but he still believes that it is better to be named "Hua Zhang Hou". Hua can express martial arts or literary works. If you choose Hua Zhang Hou, it should be OK."

Another Confucian scholar, Taoism.

"Huabiao's articles are OK, but if you watch martial arts, you won't be strong anymore. I still don't agree."

This proposal was opposed by the military strategists. The Confucian color was too strong, but it lost the military strategist color. After all, the kings and princes were titled as military strategists, and it was too Confucian, which was inappropriate.

…………

One after another, the banned account was constantly raised and then denied. By the time of sunset, seventy or eighty banned account had been denied.

As time approaches, the resolutions of the six ministries have not yet come out. Even the ministers of the Ministry of Rites who had some opinions on Fang Yun could not sit still.

"Everyone, as usual, before noon tomorrow, a resolution must be made. It will be submitted to the Three Dukes, Wu Mu and the Emperor of Humanity. I hope you will gather ideas and help the Ministry of Rites to quickly decide the title of Fang Yun, the general of the demon."

The Minister of Rites Zhang Gongqi, Dao.

"Mr. Shangshu, General Fang's title of marquis was already known to everyone in the world at the beginning. It is not easy to think of a title that satisfies all people in the world."

A king and prince.

"I understand. Please give me the matter to you."

Just when everyone was in trouble and the decision was not made, a man dressed in a general walked into the lobby of the Ministry of Rites with a lantern.

"Dear sirs, here in Chenliu, I will serve as the guard in front of Wumu's mansion. At the order of Lord Wumu, come to the Ministry of Rites to check it out."

General wearing armor said, illuminating the token of Wumu Mansion.

Everyone in the hall quickly stood up and bowed respectfully:

"So it was the messenger of Lord Wu Mu, so he was polite!"

"My lords, there is no need to be too polite. I just asked Master Wu Mu if Fang Yun's title has been decided. Lord Wu Mu is waiting."

Chen Liudao.

When the elderly Zhang Gongqi heard this, sweat broke out from his forehead. He hurriedly walked forward, gave a gift, and told him truthfully:

"It has been implicated in the envoy. General Fang's title is extremely difficult to decide. We have come up with seventy-eight titles, but we still haven't decided which one to use!"

"Haha," Chen Liu held the lantern and smiled slightly when he heard this: "Even so, Lord Wu Mu also brought one sentence. When I came, Wu Mu said that if Fang Yun's title has not been decided yet, let me convey another sentence."

"Please tell me clearly."

Zhang Gongqi, the great scholars in the hall, the princes and generals, immediately showed a look of concentration and listening.

Chen Liu smiled and said:

"Mr. Wu Mu said that in all dynasties, there has been a unified practice for young people who are under seventeen years old but who have made great achievements in military affairs and can be granted the title of marquis. It is to be granted the title of marquis to show the young people's heroic and bravest army, and to inspire the young people in the world and make contributions to the country. General Fang is not yet seventeen years old this year, and can be granted the title of marquis. I wonder if he can be granted the title of marquis as the custom!"

The three words "Champion Hou" appear, and the room is silent, and the needle can be heard.

The origin of the title "Champion Hou" is no longer verified. In the old scholar who has studied classics, there are at least ten sources. However, the most credible source originated from the Middle Ages.

In the dark age when the sects controlled the royal power, a peerless overlord finally appeared in the royal family. With strong forbearance, wisdom and martial arts, he unified the world in one fell swoop and defeated all sects.

The deeds of this overlord have become a legend that countless people fascinated. At that time, the most powerful subordinate in his name was a young man named "Huo Qubing".

He was young but had great martial arts skills. At the age of sixteen, he helped the medieval overlord, the *** million sects, drive the sects and forces out of the court and made great achievements. At that time, the title given to the young man by this medieval overlord was the "Champion Marquis"!

But unfortunately, as all the leaders of all sects united to kill this generation of peerless overlords, the Middle Ages once again fell into the Dark Age. The "Champion Marquis" followed the overlord who appeared in the Middle Ages. In the last battle, he killed several sect leaders, and in the end more than a dozen people were besieged and killed in battle. At this time, he was only seventeen years old.

Therefore, after the stories of later generations spread, in order to express their remembrance and respect for this loyal minister in the Middle Ages, the royal family continued the title of "Champion Marquis" as a convention.

Because Huo Junhou was only seventeen years old when he died in battle. Therefore, in order to show respect, the royal family in all dynasties added a *** to this title. He must be a young prince under the age of seventeen to obtain this title!

As Wu Mu said, the title of Champion Hou has been present in all dynasties. However, the conditions are extremely harsh. Just imagine that the Great Zhou Dynasty has fifteen hairs, entered the mine trial, and then can join the army. There are only two years in the middle. In these two years, we have to make great achievements and be named Marquis in one fell swoop. The conditions are not harsh to describe!

Just a "genius" cannot be regarded as a title. It must also be a "genius" among "genius". Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, only one of them has been canonized during the Taizu period. In other words, the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been more than 1,600 years, and Fang Yun has all been canonized by two champions.

From Yin, Shang and Dazhou, in more than five thousand years, there were only a handful of "champion marquis" who were awarded no more than five. In other words, in a thousand years, there were only one at most!

The number is so small and the interval is so long. No wonder everyone can't remember it for a moment.

"Champion Hou, Champion Hou..."

Zhang Gongqi murmured to himself, thinking about something.

"Sir Shangshu, what's the title?"

Chen Liu looked at Zhang Gongqi and said with a smile.

Zhang Gongqi turned around and looked at the people behind him. The people he was in contact with, whether they were Confucian or military strategists, nodded slightly.

Zhang Gongqi immediately knew it: "Just as Lord Wu Mu said, be awarded the title of Champion Marquis!"

"As it happens, I will go back to my house to tell Wu Mu."

Chen Liu nodded and turned around and left the Ministry of Rites.

On the seventh day, the title certificate of the Ministry of Rites was sent to the Military Affairs Office, the Hall of Supreme Harmony and the Palace. Soon, echoes were heard from all three parties:

allow!

Three days later, the imperial edict was stamped with the Emperor's Jade Seal and the edict was issued to the world:

Fang Yun, the general of Ping Yao, was a young hero with outstanding military achievements and made great contributions to the court. He was specially named "Champion Marquis" and announced to the world!
