Wang Yue's eyebrows were raised instantly: "Mr. Ji Ping, are you saying that this came from the mouth of the emperor?"
Ji Ping looked at Wang Yue and nodded loudly: "Yes, it is exactly what the emperor said."
Speaking of this, Ji Ping finally took out the jade belt inlaid with gold and jade from his medicine box, and used a paper cutter to pick open the middle seam of the jade belt.
Took out a piece of silk book with a hint of red in the white.
The white color is the original color of the silk book.
As for the red color, it is the blood-written edict written by the emperor with his own blood as ink.
With a respectful look, Ji Ping carefully unfolded the edict and presented all the contents in front of Wang Yue: "Please read it, General Wang. In order to prevent anyone from listening, I will not read the contents of this letter in front of you.".
Wang Yue nodded and began to read it.
The first thing that caught his eye was the huge imperial seal at the end of the edict.
Wang Yue had accompanied the emperor for several years, so he was naturally familiar with the imperial seal.
After all, during the years when the emperor was controlled by Dong Zhuo, Li Jue and Guo Si, he was forced to be rewarded by those powerful officials.
Today, the generals of Xiliang will be promoted to General of the Western Expedition, and tomorrow Dong Zhuo's direct line will be promoted to General of the Cavalry.
Even the title of general was once conferred on several people such as Li Jue and Yuan Shao through the imperial edict stamped with this jade seal...
And now, this jade seal is used to confer the title on Wang Yue.
Because when Wang Yue looked at the words, he found that the first line of words that caught his eye was that the emperor conferred Wang Yue, the Tiger Guard Lieutenant General, as the General of the Eastern Expedition!
This is the highest military title in the court, except for the general, the general of the cavalry, and the generals of the front, back, left and right guards.
It is the head of the four generals, which is much higher than the Tiger Guard Lieutenant General that Wang Yue is currently serving.
However, there was no trace of joy on Wang Yue's face.
He was not complacent because of his promotion.
Because Wang Yue was not a person who cared about fame and fortune as the world thought.
If he really cared about fame and fortune, I'm afraid he wouldn't have practiced his swordsmanship to the point of perfection and the best in the world.
Besides, the emperor himself is in danger now. Even if he secretly plots to seize power, in Wang Yue's opinion, anyone facing the genius of Cao Ang and Cao Zixiu will hardly have a chance to succeed.
If the emperor fails in the end, the general who is appointed at this moment will be just a rootless duckweed.
There is no chance to fulfill his promise at all.
Wang Yue's eyes continued to look down.
The text behind it was a little agitated.
The emperor first recounted in his own tone the uprising of Emperor Gaozu of Han, the struggle for supremacy at the end of Qin, the struggle for supremacy between Chu and Han, and finallyIt was not easy to finally establish the Han Dynasty.
Then he recounted the glory of the Han Dynasty over the past 400 years, as well as the meritorious achievements of successive Han emperors such as Emperor Wu of Han and Emperor Guangwu of Han.
Finally, he recalled his father Emperor Ling of Han and how Wang Yue was promoted during the reign of Emperor Ling.
Seeing this, Wang Yue was deeply touched.
After all, although Emperor Ling of Han was an unrighteous emperor in the eyes of the world, and even his posthumous title was the evil posthumous title of Ling.
But in Wang Yue's heart, the late emperor 840 really had a great favor for him!
What's more, at the end of this edict, the emperor recalled how Wang Yue guarded the emperor with a sword when he was hijacked by Dong Zhuo, Li Jue and Guo Si in Luoyang and Chang'an.
It can be said that Wang Yue watched the emperor grow up.
Finally, the emperor wrote in the edict that he asked Wang Yue to help him eliminate the powerful and treacherous officials in the court for the sake of the Han Dynasty and the previous emperor.
Yes, it was a request.
It was clearly an edict issued by the emperor, but the tone of the request was used at the end.
Seeing this, Wang Yue's heart softened, and he finally sighed helplessly: "The emperor is so condescending that he even treats me with a name. What else can I say?
My fame and fortune are all given by the previous emperor and the emperor. Now I can only die...".
