Xudu, Imperial Palace. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Above the golden hall, the potter sits on a dragon throne, drinking a small wine, waiting for the deadline to arrive.

In the side hall with only one wall apart, Liu Xie sat there, sighing, frowning, and the whole person fell into depression and panic, unable to extricate himself.

The potter only gave him three days to think about it, and now there is only one day left, that is, the survival of the Han family, the life and death of him, the last emperor, must be decided within this day.

Liu Xie was very depressed, he really didn't want to destroy the 400-year-old foundation of the Han family in his own hands, let alone bear the infamy of a dead king.

But he knew that no matter whether he agreed or not, the Han Dynasty was bound to die, and no one could stop the ambition of the pottery merchants to change the dynasty and call the emperor the emperor.

"Alas, I knew that I should have fled to Guanzhong with Cao Cao back then, although Cao Cao was also a traitor, but he would still be worried about fame, and he would never persecute me like this, how can he ...... like this pottery thief."

Liu Xie sighed again and again, regretful, and really wished that he could go back in time and be able to return to the moment when his fate was decided.

Squeak-

The door of the side hall was pushed open, Liu Xie shivered in fright, and subconsciously shrank back, thinking that the potter had come in.

When he looked up and saw that the person who came in was Xiao When, Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, the time is almost up, it's time to make a decision." Xiao He took a few steps forward and persuaded him.

Liu Xie's brows furrowed deeply, he knew that Xiao He was the confidant of the potter, and he was ordered by the potter's order to come to give him the final urging.

"Xiao Qing, can you let me see King Wei again, and let me beg him for mercy, I really don't want to see the Han River, Mountains and Societies, and it will be in my hands." Liu Xie pleaded with Xiao He with a bitter face.

Xiao He sighed lightly, "King Wei said that only if His Majesty decides to give up the throne, he will see His Majesty again, otherwise, the next time we meet, it will be time for King Wei to mourn His Majesty." ”

Xiao He said a few words lightly, but he shivered hard when Liu Xie heard it, his body trembled violently, and a cold chill instantly chilled his body and mind.

Xiao He's meaning was already very clear, if he didn't agree to Chan Rang, the potter would kill him.

Seeing Liu Xie's frightened appearance, Xiao He persuaded again: "Your Majesty, why should you deceive yourself, the so-called Han family is in the hands of the two kings of Wei and Qin Yan, and the king has an inch of land in his hands?" ”

Liu Xie was speechless.

"Let's talk about this Han family." Xiao He sighed again, "In fact, as early as the rebellion of Dong Zhuo that year, the Han Dynasty has disappeared, and in the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, all that is left is your majesty, the puppet emperor in vain, and those lonely imperial tombs buried in the ground, what else?" ”

Liu Xie's face swelled with endless sadness, as if the last psychological comfort of self-deception was ruthlessly torn off by Xiao He, and in the face of the cruel truth, his dignity had nowhere to hide.

Looking at Liu Xie's appearance, there is only a thin line away from compromise.

Seeing the situation, Xiao He changed his words, became much gentler, and comforted: "Your Majesty actually doesn't have to blame yourself, the defeat of the Han family has actually been planted in the hands of the second emperor Huan Ling, Dong Zhuo's rebellion, the fall of the Han Dynasty is a foregone conclusion, even if Han Gaozu is resurrected, he will not be able to return to the sky, as for Your Majesty, you ......"

Xiao He's face showed a somewhat kind smile, just like an old man who had gone through the world, educating a young man, and said with a faint smile: "In the history books of later generations, it will only be said that Your Majesty was forced to inherit the throne when the building had collapsed, although he wanted to turn the tide, he could not reverse the general trend, and the demise of the Han family was not His Majesty's fault, and the history books would have a fair evaluation of His Majesty." ”

This remark made Liu Xie's panic and anxiety gradually calm down, and the sense of guilt in his heart gradually weakened.

At this time, Xiao He took a few steps forward, knelt beside Liu Xie, stroked his shoulders with his hand, and finally said with relief: "Your Majesty, you have done your best, worthy of the ancestors of your Han family, no one will blame, it is time to let go and plan for your future, after all, you are still young, use a decree to let go of the edict, in exchange for the glory and wealth of the second half of your life, food and clothing, why not." ”

"Glory and wealth, no worries about food and clothing......" Liu Xie silently recited these eight words over and over again in his heart, thoughtfully, silent for a long time, and fell into the final trade-off.

Xiao He knew that his psychological defense line had been threatened by the potter's life and death, and he had been defeated by his own knowledge, so he didn't say anything more, but only stepped back and waited for him to make a decision.

Liu Xie's thoughts were racing, his heart was surging, and his mind kept flashing with dignity, life, wealth, life and death, and the country...... All kinds of words.

In the end, Liu Xie's thoughts were fixed on the word "wealth".

After a long sigh, Liu Xie's originally tangled expression suddenly became relieved, he gently brushed his hand, and sighed weakly: "That's it, I am a mediocre person, I can't afford to rejuvenate the Han family, since the destruction of the Han family is a foregone conclusion, I can only obey the mandate of heaven, the king of Wei wants this emperor's throne, and I can only give it to him." ”

Liu Xie finally compromised, worthy of the name, there is a word "Xie", between the so-called emperor's dignity and life and wealth, as in history, he chose the latter and made the same choice.

Xiao He didn't feel too surprised, he had already expected that Liu Association would agree, so he arched his hand and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, this should be the wisest decision Your Majesty has made in this life, and the minister will go to report to King Wei." ”

After that, Xiao He retreated.

After a while, Xiao He walked into the main hall and reported Liu Xie's decision to the potter.

Above the hall, all the civil ministers and military generals were overjoyed, and the entire hall fell into excitement.

Liu Xie's compromise meant that their Wei king could justifiably ascend the throne as emperor, change the dynasty, and create the Great Wei Dynasty.

The pottery merchants were enthroned by the King of Wei as the Emperor of Wei, and these of them who were subordinates could naturally follow the rising tide and become the ministers of the founding of the country.

In an excited atmosphere, the potter on the high seat, the corners of his mouth also rose slightly, revealing a smile of relief.

He had expected that Liu Xie would not have the backbone to carry it to the end, but now it is as expected, Liu Xie really compromised, which saved him a lot of trouble.

"Good!" The wine in the cup was drunk, the potter laughed proudly, and waved his hand and ordered: "Pass the order, immediately build a high platform in the south of the Xu capital, and convene hundreds of civil and military officials, soldiers and soldiers of the three armies three days later, and hold a ceremony to let the Zen be held, and the king will be on behalf of Han Liwei and ascend the throne as the emperor!" ”

The sentence "Acting for the Han Dynasty and establishing Wei, ascending the throne and becoming the emperor", the arrogant and confident words instantly ignited the emotions of the ministers and made them fall into unprecedented excitement.

"Great, my Lao Fan has followed you from Haixi City, after so many years, I finally got up to the king and you want to be the emperor, I'm really about to die of joy." Fan Hao shouted excitedly, so excited that he burst into tears

The generals under his command were also full of emotion, sincerely happy, and knelt down one after another to congratulate the potters.

With a smile of relief, the potter stood up and said loudly to the ministers: "This king can come to this point, without the assistance of you heroes and heroes, it is impossible, this king is called the king of the emperor, and will never forget your merits, glory and magnificence, this king should share with you!" ”

"Thank you, King Longen—"

"Thank you, King Ende—"

The ministers were all grateful to Dade, and bowed down to the potters again, and the sound of gratitude and thanks echoed in the golden hall.

The pottery merchant then ordered the ministers to disperse and go to prepare for the Zen ceremony three days later.

After the ministers dispersed, the pottery merchant announced that Liu Xie had entered the palace, intending to give Liu Xie some praise for his knowledge of current affairs.

The eunuch went to the side hall to announce Liu Xie, and the pottery merchant suddenly remembered something, so he ordered Jing Ke to go down again, and ordered the queen Fu who was under house arrest to be brought and let her wait in another side hall.

A moment later, Fu Shou, who was not far from the main hall, was taken to the side hall on the other side by a group of warriors.

"The traitor of the potter, how does he want to humiliate the palace!" Although Fu Shou sat down, he asked indignantly.

"The queen is not excited, my king will soon be the emperor, there are still a lot of things to do, I don't have time to tease you, today the queen is here, just to let you say goodbye to the Han Emperor and see the last side."

Jing Ke sneered, flicked his hand, and pulled the side hall a little, just in time to see the scene of the main hall.

Hearing Jing Ke's words, Fu Shoujiao's body was shocked, and he suddenly quieted down, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he secretly thought: "Listening to the tone of this thief, could it be that Your Majesty can't help the threat of the pottery thief, and has decided to give up the imperial throne to the pottery thief?" ”

Thinking of this, Fu Shou felt a deep cold war in his heart, and panic flashed in his eyes.

Although the facts are already very clear, Fu Shou really didn't want to accept this cruel fact, and secretly shook his head, forcibly comforting himself: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, but the descendant of the Liu family, even if he is weak, how can he give up the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty to the pottery thief, no, Your Majesty will never do such a shameless thing, and will never ......"

Just as Fu Shou was comforting himself, in the main hall, footsteps sounded, and a man with a gloomy expression and a panicked expression stepped into the golden hall.

"Your Majesty!" Fu Shou's heart was shocked, and he recognized Liu Xie at a glance.

It's just that Liu Xie in the Golden Palace no longer wears the crown on his head, and the dragon robe on his body has also been removed, such an outfit makes Fu Shou's heart more and more uneasy.

Under Fu Shou's uneasy gaze, Liu Xie took a deep breath, reluctantly knelt at the feet of the pottery merchant, and said in a trembling voice: "Liu Xie, the king of the dead country, meet His Majesty the Emperor of Great Wei." ”

Seeing this scene, Fu Shou was stunned for a moment.
