Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 522: ：What is a posthumous title

There was an uproar in both the government and the public.

When King Zhou Li was still alive, he granted the title of King Dingbei and guarded the northern territory.

It was Yin Huaixi's turn. On the basis of King Dingbei, the emperor also named Wu Mu and named him King Wu Mu, which is somewhat intriguing.

"Jizhong Zhoushu" says: "Strength, wisdom and virtue are called martial arts, and conquering disasters and chaos is called martial arts."

The "Posthumous Law" says: "The virtue of virtue is called Mu, and the virtue of virtue is called Mu."

In history, there are only a handful of people who have received the posthumous title of "Wu Mu". Almost every one of them is a famous general in Kuang Shuo's ancient and modern times. Yue Fei was given the posthumous title of "Wu Mu" after his death.

It can be seen how important the word "Wu Mu" has been in the past dynasties.

The emperor granted Yin Huai the seal of King Wumu. How important is this?

But the problem is that the word Wu Mu was mostly a posthumous title in history.

What is a posthumous title?

Posthumous titles are used to honor the deeds, moral character, merits and demerits of the "dead person" during their lifetime. The upper posthumous title is to sing about meritorious deeds, the middle posthumous title is to commemorate the deceased, and the lower posthumous title has the meaning of belittling.

Previously, the emperor named Yin Lixing as King of Zhou Dynasty and King Li of Zhou Dynasty.

Some ministers in the court jumped out to object, pointing out that the word "Li" is not moral and means "violence, violence, killing, and evil" and should not be given credit.

The emperor said bluntly: "The first emperor named his younger brother [Li], which means serious, austere, fierce, grinding, and sharp. Over the years, the emperor's younger brother has been like the sharpest blade of the country, guarding the country." His serenity and ferociousness when he came to foreign countries lived up to the expectations of the late emperor. He should be given the posthumous title "Li" to show that his ancestors were virtuous and had meritorious service."

"Wu Mu" must have been given a posthumous title, but the word "Wu Mu" is mostly posthumous for the deceased, and there are no living people. Yin Huaixi's people are still alive, so why is Wu Mu posthumously given?

Do you think that only the word "Wu Mu" is enough to express the emperor's regard for Yin Huaixi?

Or do you want Yin Huai's seal to imitate the style of his predecessors and the achievements of "Wu Mu" and contribute to the great Zhou Dynasty?

Or maybe it was because King Zhou Li had learned from his mistakes that the emperor wanted to use the word "Wu Mu" to frighten Chao Gang Xiaoxiao so that he would not dare to bully Yin Huaixi, who was young and sick?

In short, no matter what the emperor is like, since he has been granted the title of King Yin Huai, Xi Wu and Mu Dingbei, it is a title. No one in the government or the public dares to say a word.

The news spread outside the palace and reached Yu Youyao's ears.

Yu Youyao almost cried in anger: "What does the Dog Emperor mean? Just follow up on the title. What titles can't be added? Do you have to add such an inexplicable title to your cousin?"

Does he feel that his cousin's life is an eyesore to him, or does he think that his cousin is in good health and hopes that he will die soon and be born soon?

There was a charcoal stove set up in the house, with a wire grill on it. The venison was roasted until it was shiny and sizzling, and the room was filled with the spicy smell of roasted venison, as well as a vague smell Wine aroma.

The stag yesterday was quite big. Everyone in the house gave some away, but more than half was left.

Yu Youyao collected deer blood, found ancient recipes to make deer blood wine, and also made some deer blood powder. She also liked roasted venison very much.

Zhou Linghuai turned over the roasted venison and felt that it was almost done, so he picked it up, cut it into bite-sized pieces with a knife, and handed it to Yu Youyao: "The venison is roasted, eat it while it's hot."

Yu Youyao was so angry that she said, "How can I eat any more?"

Zhou Linghuai smiled: "There was a famous anti-Jin general Yue Wumu in the previous dynasty. You have read a lot of history books recently, but have you seen his life story?"

Yu Youyao nodded: "Yue Wumu made great achievements in battle. Because of his great achievements, he was brutally killed by the court on "unfounded" charges on New Year's Eve. He was later rehabilitated several times, and it took more than eighty years for him to be completely Zhaoxue!"

Zhou Linghuai praised: "Historical records are not in vain. 14 years after Yue Wumu's death, the Prime Minister of Qin died and the Qin family lost power. The main war faction in the court saw the hope of Yue Wumu's rehabilitation and demanded that Yue Wumu be rehabilitated. , was rejected by Emperor Gaozong."

Yu Youyao has always been smart, and one point is clear: "Yue Wumu's death was caused by Emperor Gaozong. If Yue Wumu is rehabilitated, Gaozong's majestic reputation will be difficult to live up to."

How similar is this to when my cousin rehabilitated King Zhou Li? !

Zhou Linghuai continued: "Until the gold master tore up the peace agreement and raised troops to invade the south. In the autumn of danger, the main war faction once again asked for Yue Wu Mu Zhaoxue. Gaozong had no choice but to put on a show and pardon the exiles of the Yue family. This This move has nothing to do with redressing Zhaoxue. It is just a benevolent policy forced by the situation. Yue Wumu has always been accused of being a traitor and treason."

Yu Youyao knew that this was just the beginning.

"Gaozong abdicated and his son Xiaozong ascended the throne. In order to balance the forces of the war faction and the peace faction in the DPRK at that time, Yue Wumu was redressed. However, in the redress speech, Yue Fei's death was However, it was written in a cloud of mist. It admitted Yue Wumu's grievances, but refused to speak out. No screening or review was conducted on Yue Wumu's unjust imprisonment. The redress was not thorough enough, leaving Yue Wumu's grievances still stained by the world. said."

Yu Youyao nodded: "After Gaozong abdicated, he regarded himself as the Supreme Emperor and abdicated without giving up power. Xiaozong was influenced by his father and did not pay much attention to Yue Wumu's grievances. It was only because of the strong demands of the main war faction at that time. He had no choice but to act like this, but incomplete redress still left Yue Wumu unjustly wronged."

"In the 17th year of Emperor Xiaozong's reign, the imperial court officially granted a posthumous title to Yue Wumu. Taichang Temple proposed a posthumous title of "loyalty and compassion", but was rejected by Emperor Xiaozong and "the order was not drawn up." The result of the reconsideration was: " According to the posthumous law, the posthumous title is Wu Mu, and the posthumous title is Wu Mu. ”

Yu Youyao frowned: "Yue Wumu was unjustly killed for "rebellion". No matter how important Wu Mu is and how good his name is, he can be downgraded from "loyalty and compassion" to "Wu Mu". This is Xiaozong's response to Yue. Wu Mu's disparagement is still not a complete vindication. For Yue Wu Mu, the word "loyalty" is more important than any other word. ~IndoMTL.com~ Zhou Linghuai nodded: "After that, after Guangzong, the Yue clan always It was difficult to calm down, so I kept in mind that "the loyalty of the ancestors has not been shown, and the injustice has not been made clear", and kept looking for opportunities to redress. ”

Yu Youyao was not a fool, he was also a good general who was unjustly killed. However, Yue Wumu has been struggling for many years and has never been able to rehabilitate him.

But the case of King Zhou Li was vindicated within a few months.

Is this really just because my cousin pacified Shandong and everyone in the world?

Not necessarily!

Back then, even though the Jin people had invaded Jiangbei, Emperor Gaozong still cared about his majesty and face and refused to vindicate Yue Wumu. What does a mere Shandong mean?

Zhou Linghuai continued: "It wasn't until Ning Zong came to the throne, and it took more than ten years, that Ning Zong pursued the title of "King Shen" and the posthumous title of "Zhongxian" from the Prime Minister of Qin, and changed them to the posthumous title of "Miu" Ugly", pointing directly at his sins, but good things always come to an end. As the main war faction lost power, the main peace faction once again restored the title of Prime Minister of Qin, and Wu Muyue still had not been rectified by the court."

I am more than eight thousand, I am proud, I don’t feel guilty if I want the monthly tickets, the monthly tickets are coming~

Haha, do you think that King Zhou Li was really rehabilitated when he was rehabilitated? Take a look at Yue Fei, and then take a look at the title of his eldest cousin, King Wu Mu, and you will know that it is far from as simple as you think~

Haha, don’t guess the emperor’s thoughts. You keep guessing and you can’t figure it out. Otherwise, the emperor’s heart is unpredictable, but my cousin can figure it out~
