Chapter 75, Captain of the City Gate
"What the prime minister said. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Liu Xie said, "In that case, then find the land security of Zhuo County and Zhuo County as soon as possible to verify the identity." ”
"Your Majesty, now Zhuo County, Zhuo County, is Gongsun Zhan's territory, and it is not easy to find the local land protection. However, Your Majesty can rest assured that the minister will do his best to find the local land protector as soon as possible. Fang Wen said.
"Then it's troublesome for the prime minister." Liu Xie hurriedly said.
In fact, as far as the matter of verifying the body is concerned, it is all up to Fang Wen.
Fang Wen could have found a random person to pretend to be the land security officer of Zhuo County. denied that this Liu Bei was Liu Bei, a person from Zhuo County, Zhuo County.
Then Liu Bei is an impostor, a fake royal prince, and Liu Bei will be imprisoned at that time.
Of course, Fang Wen can also find someone to pretend to be the local security officer of Zhuo County, Zhuo County, and say that this Liu Bei is Liu Bei of Zhuo County, Zhuo County. Then Liu Bei is the real royal family.
Or like Fang Wen is now, drag this matter along. As long as this land protection does not appear, then Liu Bei can neither be said to be a royal clansman, because there is no verification of his identity, but it cannot be said that Liu Bei is not a royal clansman, because the royal genealogy does record that Liu Bei is a royal clansman.
As a result, Liu Bei was in an awkward position, neither up nor down.
The reason why Fang Wen did this was to curb Liu Bei's development. Although he wanted Liu Bei to strengthen the momentum of the Fuhan faction, he didn't want to watch Liu Bei develop too strong in the court. Liu Bei can only be restricted in this way.
As long as Liu Bei is not proved to be a member of the royal family for a day, then it is impossible for him to really be reused by Liu Xie.
At the same time, Liu Bei did not dare to flee Luoyang City. If he leaves, he will deny himself as a member of the Han family in disguise.
Those ministers who saw Fang Wen's calculations admired Fang Wen one by one. This conspiracy is both reasonable and convincing. It's simply impeccable.
Liu Bei also figured out the key to it, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, and he also felt a little resentful towards Fang Wen.
At this time, Fang Wen said, "Although there is no way to verify Liu Bei's identity now, this person has some talent and can let him enter the court as an official." ”
"What official position does the prime minister think he should be given?" Liu Xie asked.
"He has a cloth coat, and he has no fame. Let's call him the Taizhong doctor. Fang Wen said.
"Then according to the words of the prime minister, Liu Bei will be named the doctor of Taizhong." Liu Xie settled the matter.
Taizhong's doctor has 2,000 stones, which is also a good position in the court. For Liu Bei, who is clothed, he is on the rise!
But Liu Bei was not satisfied. Dr. Taizhong is a civilian official, but he wants to be a military attache who leads the army. He deeply knew that only by mastering the army could he truly gain a foothold in this troubled era.
So Liu Bei said, "Your Majesty, the minister is willing to be the captain of the city gate." ”
The captain of the city gate is also a 2,000 stone captain, but strictly speaking, the captain of the city gate is not as good as the doctor.
After all, the captain of the city gate is just a person who watches the city gate every day, and it is a chore. But Doctor Taizhong can go to court every day and meet the saint face to face.
Liu Bei invited himself to be the captain of the city gate, Liu Xie was a little embarrassed for a while, but he still said to Fang Wen, "This captain of the city gate is not much different from the doctor of Taizhong, what does the prime minister think." ”
"Since Liu Bei recommended himself to be the captain of the city gate, then naturally he can." Fang Wen nodded in agreement.
Fang Wen naturally knew Liu Bei's intentions. Liu Bei wanted to use the position of captain of the city gate to lead some troops and strengthen himself. At the same time, prepare a back road for his escape.
But is Fang Wen's army someone else to command? In Fang Wen's army, Liu Bei said that it didn't count. Even if Liu Bei became the captain of the city gate, it was just an idle position.
Since Liu Bei wants to endure hardships, why not let him experience it?
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Prime Minister." Liu Bei hurriedly bowed.
"Your Majesty, it's better to reward Captain Liu with another house, Captain Liu is still living in the post station." Fang Wen said with a smile.
"Then reward Captain Liu's mansion." Liu Xie hurriedly said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward." Liu Bei could not accept Fang Wen's reward, but he didn't dare to refuse.
Soon, the court meeting dispersed, and Fuhan sent many people to say hello to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei was originally a cloth cloth, but now he not only has an official position, but also a mansion that is 2,000 stones, and is personally rewarded by Liu Xie. It can be said that it is very favored! Naturally, these ministers had to go and congratulate them.
For everyone's congratulations, Liu Bei thanked them one by one. He knew that the reason why Liu Xie rewarded him so much was entirely because he was a member of the royal family.
Once it is proved one day that he Liu Bei is not a member of the royal family, then these things will soon be taken back by Liu Xie, and he will even be sentenced to the crime of bullying the king. This is not what Liu Bei wants to see.
So although Liu Bei was made an official, he was trembling.
Fang Wencai didn't care what Liu Bei thought, he only knew that Liu Bei's appearance had made the Fuhan faction in the court active again. This is exactly what he wants.
Liu Bei returned to the post station and told Guan Yu and Zhang Fei about his affairs in the court.
"So Your Majesty didn't recognize that the eldest brother is the royal family?" Guan Yu asked.
"Not bad." Liu Bei nodded helplessly.
"Didn't the prime minister say that he would send someone to find the land protection?" Zhang Fei asked.
Liu Bei sneered and shook his head, "This is exactly what Fang Wen is so good at. He neither denied that I was a member of the Han family, but he also did not become a member of the Han family. He said that looking for it was just rhetoric. My hometown is far away in Hebei and is occupied by Gongsun Zhan, how can he Fang Wen find the land protection? ”
"Then why did he say that he would help his eldest brother find the land protection?" Zhang Fei was puzzled.
Guan Yu said, "The purpose of this is to drag the eldest brother like this, so that the eldest brother can't go up or down." So that the eldest brother can no longer act in the name of the royal family. ”
Liu Bei nodded and said, "Yes, it's just one of them, and he still wants me to fall in Luoyang City forever." Because if I leave Luoyang City, it will be equivalent to refusing to verify my identity in disguise, and it will also mean that I have truly lost the identity of the Han clan. ”
Zhang Fei scolded when he heard it, "I didn't expect this Fang Wen to look polite, but his heart is so bad!" I still think he's good, and I want to make friends with him! He hurt my eldest brother so much, I really want to poke a few transparent holes in him. ”
"Third brother, if you really do this, then we may go to the execution ground the next day, and you didn't listen to him. Just because Lu Jia was molesting his wife, he killed Lu Jia. It can be seen that this person killed decisively. And his subordinates can catch Lu Jia, even if many people shoot at the same time, then they and I must be extraordinary. Guan Yu said.
"Yes, we are in Kyoto now, and we must not act recklessly." Liu Bei said solemnly.
