Guan Yu is Hou Ting of Han Shou, and "Hou Ting of Han Shou" is not an official position, but a title. And titles, some of which are called knighthood and Spyker titles, are titles that only ancient royal families or nobles can have. During the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties, Yi * * had five titles, namely Gong, Hou, Bo, Zi and Gong. Those who got these titles enjoyed tangible benefits. The titles were hereditary and useless, and a fief was attached. But in the Han dynasty, according to the system, whether it was a duke, a marquis or a viscount, it was an official position.

When Cao Cao gave Guan Yu the title of Hanshou Pavilion, he also said, "Present it to the imperial court, seal Yunchang as Hanshou Pavilion, and send it to Guan Yu by casting and printing." In other words, the title of "Hou Ting of Hanshou" was actually given to Guan Yu by Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty, and as a "puppet", Emperor Xian of Han did not have any power. Therefore, the title "gold content" given to Guan Yu is very low. I don't even know where his fief is.

The first time Guan Yu met Cao Cao, he didn't want gold, silver and jewels, nor beautiful cars. Even the seal of "Hanshou Hou Ting" is hung above the lobby. It can be seen that Guan Yu doesn't care about this so-called "Han Shou Hou Ting". So Guan Yu simply gave up this title to pursue his eldest brother Liu Bei.
