Liu Bei finally agreed to the request of the ministers and agreed to the throne as emperor under the request of the ministers to "die". Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Zhuge Liang and the other ministers breathed a sigh of relief, and they were all overjoyed, and then they got up from the ground in an uproar.

Before the ministers spoke, Liu Bei immediately said: "But this king has a word first, this king is for the Han Dynasty, so he has to be called the emperor, after he swept away the pottery thief, if he can find the son of the first emperor, this king will abdicate and give way to Xian, and return this emperor to the bloodline of the first emperor." ”

As soon as he heard Liu Bei's words, Zhang Fei was dissatisfied on the spot, and thought that we would come and go in the rain in blood, and desperately helped our eldest brother to the throne, destroyed the pottery thief, and took the whole world, why should the eldest brother give up the throne to a hairy boy.

Zhang Fei was unhappy, and he was about to speak out against it on the spot.

Zhuge Liang knew that this was just Liu Bei's words, so he immediately smiled and said: "The king is dedicated to reviving the Han family, not greedy for the throne, this kind of open-mindedness is comparable to the ancient Yao Shun, it is really the blessing of my Han Dynasty and the blessing of the people of the world." ”

After Zhuge Liang praised Liu Bei, he changed his words, "As for the king to let Xian, the minister thinks that regardless of the cruelty of the pottery thief, since he killed the first emperor, he will definitely cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and the chance of the first emperor's heirs surviving is really slim." Moreover, who belongs to the throne depends on the will of the people, if the king destroys the pottery thief in time, saves the people of the world from Shuiyan, and the people return to the king, does the king still have to go against the will of the people and heaven, and he has to give way? ”

"This ......" Liu Bei fell into a dilemma again, and muttered: "If it is really what the people want, this king is indeed not good to go against the will of the people, but this king is just a branch of the royal family, and how dare he covet the throne, this is really embarrassing for this king......"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said with relief: "The most important thing at the moment is that the king ascends to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, leads the righteous people of the world to destroy the pottery thief, and revitalizes the Han family. ”

After Zhuge Liang's "hard persuasion", Liu Bei's concerns were dispelled, and he grinded for a long time before he completely agreed to ascend the throne and become emperor.

In the main hall, the cheers of the ministers of the Yan Kingdom suddenly sounded.

Liu Bei looked at the south, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and a trace of imperceptible pride quietly passed over his gray face.

At the end of the summer, Liu Bei built a high platform in the south of Jijing City to perform a ceremony to sacrifice to the sky, announcing that he would follow Liu Xie's edict, inherit the unification, ascend the throne and become the emperor, and change the name of Yan to Han.

……

Thousands of miles away, Guanzhong, Chang'an City.

The news of the Wei king's pottery merchant proclaiming the emperor had already flown into Guanzhong like snowflakes and entered the city of Chang'an, which shocked the soldiers and people of Qin, and soon became the focus of discussion among the people of the city.

In the palace, Cao Cao sat on the top, looking at the information from the states of the Central Plains, and his eyebrows showed a look of disappointment.

Cao Cao originally thought that the pottery merchants would abolish the Han dynasty and establish themselves and openly proclaim themselves emperor, which would inevitably arouse the dissatisfaction of the Wei people and cause rebellion and commotion.

To Cao Cao's disappointment, all the prefectures and counties of Wei were surprisingly calm, and there was no boiling of the people he believed in and complaints abounded.

On the contrary, the officials and people in various places were quite happy about the pottery merchants being called emperors, and the allegiance of allegiance and spontaneous celebrations were in a celebratory atmosphere throughout the Wei State.

As for those powerful people of the world, they were hit by the pottery merchant's Shang Ying's law change, as well as a series of Daxing killings, and their vitality was greatly damaged, and they could only survive for a long time, and no one dared to jump out against the incident.

"I didn't expect this kid to be the emperor so easily......" Cao Cao slapped the information on the case table and sighed.

In front of the palace, all the ministers are also talking about the pottery merchant as the emperor, and they have different thoughts.

"The king, the pottery thief usurped the Han, the people and gods are angry, the king is the minister of the Han family, how can he sit idly by, the minister thinks that the king should quickly raise a large army out of the customs, destroy the pottery thief, and revive the room!" At the bottom of the stairs, Xun Yu was the first to stand up and shouted indignantly.

Xun Yu was the most loyal to the Han Dynasty among the ministers of the Qin State, and now seeing the destruction of the Han Dynasty, he was naturally full of grief and indignation, and for a while he even ignored the strength of the Qin State that was inferior to the Wei State, and strongly persuaded Cao Cao to send troops.

Cao Cao's brows froze and he didn't speak.

On the opposite side of Xun Yu, Guo Jia slanted at Cao Cao, observing Cao Cao's emotional changes, his thoughts flew around, his eyes rolled a little, and he seemed to have realized something.

"Ahem-" Guo Jia coughed a few times and glanced at Cao Ang, the prince of the prince, who was standing not far away.

Cao Ang understood, immediately stood up, and arched his hand: "Father, the Han Dynasty has been destroyed, and the pottery thief has been called the emperor, for today's plan, only when the father also ascends the throne and becomes the emperor, can he have enough appeal, call on the world to have the ambition to follow his father to sweep away the traitor of the pottery merchant, and save the world from fire and water!" ”

Cao Ang persuaded Cao Cao to be emperor!

On the throne, Cao Cao's expression moved slightly, and his expression couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry about the eldest son's invitation.

At this time, Cao Pi's face had changed slightly, obviously he didn't expect that his brother would make such an unexpected move, you know, their father has expressed on many occasions that he is only willing to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, not a thief who usurps the throne.

Cao Ang knew this, why did he dare to persuade Cao Cao to become emperor?

Cao Pi was suspicious in his heart, and he didn't know whether to follow the trend, so he looked into the corner of the crowd and quietly looked over.

He was looking at Jia Xu.

Jia Xu, who had half-white hair, was already looking at Cao Pi, and when the two looked at each other quietly, Jia Xu nodded slightly.

Cao Pi was so smart, he understood the meaning of this poisoner at a glance, and he didn't dare to hesitate any longer, so he immediately stood up and persuaded him sincerely: "The pottery thief is just a thief from a cold family, and he has stolen half of the world by deceit, so he dares to call himself the emperor, he can be called the emperor, why can't his father?" The sons also asked their father to ascend to the throne as the emperor! ”

The two sons invariably stood up and persuaded them to enter, driving the new and old courtiers below such as Guo Jia, Xiahou Brothers, Xu Huang, Ma Chao, Fa Zheng, Zhang Ren, etc., to stand up and persuade Cao Cao to be emperor.

As far as the eye can see, all the ministers in the entire hall have knelt down in the dark, and the voices of persuasion are one after another.

Cao Cao's expression was still silent, but a trace of excitement quietly passed through his sunken eyes.

But soon, that glimmer of excitement was replaced by displeasure.

Because he saw that in the main hall, all the ministers knelt, but only one person stood still, and that person was Xun Yu, the advisor he relied on the most.

At this time, Xun Yu's expression was also quite dissatisfied, seeing that all the ministers were persuading Cao Cao to be the emperor, he couldn't help but be anxious and angry, and he knelt down in a hurry, and said to Cao Cao: "The king is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, everything he does is to help the Han family, if the king is called the emperor, isn't it the same as the pottery thief, they have become chaotic ministers and thieves, never allow, never allow——"

On the throne, Cao Cao looked at Xun Yu, who was struggling to persuade him, his brows became deeper and deeper, and the dissatisfaction seemed to be more and more obvious on his face.

At this moment, Liu Ye hurriedly entered again, and arched his hand: "Your lord, the latest news has come from Youzhou, that Liu Bei has announced in Jijing a few days ago that he has been awarded the edict of the emperor, inherited the unification of the Han family, and ascended the throne as the emperor!" ”

As soon as these words came out, there was another uproar in the entire hall.

For a while, the scolding in the hall started again, and all the ministers were scolding, Liu Bei, the weaver and peddler, was embarrassed to be the emperor, and dared to lie about what the emperor's edict was, which was simply shameless.

At this time, Cao Pi stood up and asked Xun Yu: "I said Lord Xun, even the big-eared thief dares to establish himself as the emperor now, and he also claims to be the emperor's edict, what is the orthodoxy of the Han family, you want my father to be a loyal minister of the Han family, do you want my father to be a vassal to the big-eared thief?" ”

"This-" Xun Yu was suddenly asked, and he was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer.

Guo Jia glanced at Cao Ang, Cao Ang was not to be outdone, and hurriedly said: "That's it, what is the identity of the father, how can he be a vassal to the big-eared thief, since the Han Dynasty has fallen, the object of the father's allegiance is gone, it doesn't matter whether the loyal minister is a loyal minister or not, what if the father is called the emperor." ”

Most of the ministers under your command are inclined to Cao Cao to be the emperor, only Xun Yu objected, but because of Liu Bei's title of emperor, he defended the Han Dynasty, and became more and more pale.

Cao Cao, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly raised his hand and signaled the ministers to be quiet.

In the main hall, there was a sudden silence, and everyone's eyes were on Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's eyes looked at the young strategist in front of the hall, and asked lightly: "Fa Xiaozhi, some of the ministers persuaded this king to be the emperor, and some people opposed this king to be the emperor, and I haven't seen you speak, and this king wants to hear your opinion." ”

Everyone's eyes turned to Fazheng again.

This young strategist, who has not been in the country for a long time, slowly walked up to the main hall, and arched his hand towards Cao Cao and said: "Now Liu Bei and the two thieves of the pottery merchant have been called emperors one after another, if the king is not called the emperor, he will be short of the heads of the two thieves in terms of name, which is obviously not conducive to calling on the heroes of the world to follow the king and achieve hegemony." ”

Having said this, except for Xun Yu, all the ministers nodded, obviously thinking that Fa Zheng agreed with Cao Cao to be the emperor.

Fa Zheng changed his words, and said: "It's just that the king swore before that he wanted to be a loyal minister of the Han family, even if he was forced by the situation to be called the emperor as a last resort, it seems that he is suspected of breaking his oath, and he is afraid of being slandered by the world." ”

When these words were spoken, Cao Cao's brows darkly froze, and the rest of the ministers all showed strange expressions, listening to Fa Zheng's words, it seemed that they were against Cao Cao's claim to be emperor.

"I say that the law is filial piety, do you approve of the king being the emperor, or do you disapprove?" Ma Chao asked dissatisfiedly.

Fa Zheng smiled and said lightly: "The king should not be called the emperor, it doesn't matter whether I approve or not, it doesn't matter if you approve or not, the key depends on the will of heaven." ”

Providence?

Above the main hall, everyone was stunned, all of them were confused, and they didn't know what the Fa was selling.

Cao Cao seemed to be interested, so he said: "Heaven's will is unpredictable, how can this king know what heaven's will is?" ”

"Providence is on this copper coin." As he spoke, Fa Zheng took out a penny from his sleeve and held it high to show it to everyone.
