Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Divine Decree Arrives
Xuzhou.
Liu Bei stood at the head of the city, listening to the report of the sentry behind him, his face solemn.
Cao Cao actually fought with Yuan Shao, and in Yuan Shao's territory, he beat other people's soldiers and horses back to the city, and at such a price, he also had to "rescue" His Majesty.
What about Qin Lang and Zhao Yun?
There will definitely be a head-on conflict with Cao Cao!
It's been a few days since there was any news, so how can I, as a big brother, be at ease.
Who would have thought that the Son of Heaven could escape to Luoyang, and a group of people chased after him to Luoyang.
Now there are not many soldiers and horses in Xuzhou City, and they are not sophisticated, and the defense of the city is a little insufficient, and they dare not rush out to rescue.
What's more, the news is unknown, and Lu Bu is stationed in Xiaopei, although the two sides are an alliance, they are also eyeing each other, and they have to guard against it.
As for the two brothers, one would only look up at the sky forty-five degrees......
The other will only drink and fight every day......
Leading the army is a good hand, but it really can't be worried.
I...... I'm so tired......
Suddenly, a team of dozens of people appeared in sight, still under the banner of royalty.
"That's, the Son of Heaven's team?!"
Liu Bei hurriedly sent someone to check, and when the sentry returned, he actually brought the holy decree.
The messenger said that the Son of Heaven had arrived in Yanzhou safely and began to take charge of state affairs under the protection of Cao Cao.
This first decree was sent to Xuzhou.
Liu Bei personally opened the city gate and took the upper class scholars of Xuzhou City to respectfully welcome the holy decree.
"Your Majesty has a decree to appoint Liu Bei as the pastor of Xuzhou, to control the military and political power of Xuzhou, and to protect the country for me!"
At this time, there was no heavenly carriage, and the emperor's edict said that the content of the holy decree was not much different from the usual words.
Liu Bei knelt on the ground excitedly, crying bitterly, "Sad, I, Liu Xuande, received the emperor's grace, and when Dong Zhuo was in chaos, I hated to treat him with death, Your Majesty Longen, I ...... Shame on you! ”
The eunuch who delivered the decree was really Liu Xie's side, and he had also witnessed Liu Xie's humiliation over the years.
came out to announce the decree this time, but I didn't know that Liu Xie had been rescued by Qin Lang.
Those things happened after he left the city with the holy decree, and he still thought that Liu Xie was still under Cao Cao's control.
So, it's more empathetic.
This Liu Bei is definitely a royal clan, and those who say that Liu Bei's identity is unknown are all gossip.
Otherwise, who would cry so out of shape for someone else's family matter?
The point is, if you don't have love to the depths, can you cry out?
Loyal Ministers!
is definitely a royal relative loyal to the Han family, and he Liu Bei is a member of the royal family!
This person has not yet been personally approved by His Majesty, and when he returns to Yanzhou, he will definitely say something good about him in front of His Majesty.
"Lord Liu's heart can be expressed in the sun and the moon, you still received the holy decree, and you can't let everyone wait in front of the city!"
"What the envoy said is that the memo is in shape, please go into the city and rest."
Liu Bei took the holy decree and let go of his body again.
At this moment, I only felt refreshed and ethereal.
With the canonization of the Holy Decree, it is justified, and no matter who it is in the future, there is no way to make a stumbling block in this matter.
It's just a big thing on his mind.
But there are also suspicious things in this matter, so is Cao Mengde really handed over power to the Son of Heaven? That's not his character!
But if he did not hand over power, but coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, then what did this holy decree say?
Or does Cao Cao want to be an alliance with me?
We must be cautious in this matter, and if we don't get it right, we will die.
After all, Cao Cao's old boy is too insidious, and there is no news from the official and Zilong!
The old eunuch was followed by dozens of soldiers and guarded by generals, and he didn't dare to say a word along the way.
When he arrived at the city lord's mansion, Liu Bei set up a banquet to entertain him, and after everyone drank the banquet, the old eunuch came up with the secret decree to crusade against Yuan Shu.
"That Yuan Shu has the intention of rebellion, so Liu Bei Xingbing will crusade!"
As soon as Liu Bei saw the holy decree, his heart was half cold, this is a pit!
Now that everything has been explained, no wonder they canonized me as Xuzhou Mu, it turned out that I was waiting here.
Look, there are bloody fingerprints on it, it seems that the Son of Heaven fell into the hands of Cao Mengde.
This big traitor!
"Gong Liu, why don't you accept the holy decree?"
"Ah......" Liu Bei pretended to suddenly realize, and said: "Don't blame the messenger, Bei is still grateful for the kindness of the Son of Heaven, since this is His Majesty's intention, Bei ......"
"How are you?"
"The only way to prepare is to receive the order and get rid of a traitor for Your Majesty!"
Liu Bei gritted his teeth, this traitor, I don't know if it's Yuan Shu or Cao Cao.
But now that it is difficult to ride a tiger, I have just received the will of Xuzhou Mu, and the second holy decree will not be obeyed?
If this is really done, then Cao Cao will have another excuse to lead his troops to attack Xuzhou.
And it was with a holy decree and an open and honest request for Xuzhou.
This old eunuch is also enough to pit, can't you give me a look?
It's good now, I'm forced to the edge of the cliff, and you still ask me vigorously, is this old eunuch also Cao Mengde's person?
It was blind, and I cried so heartbroken at the gates.
"When will Gong Liu send troops?"
"Why do you ask?"
Liu Bei only felt that his teeth hurt, this is not leaving a way for people to live.
That Yuan Shu has an army of 600,000 and is Yuan Shao's own brother, even if I go to fight him, I have to plan carefully.
How many troops is there in Xuzhou City?
How many of these soldiers and horses are still in the hands of the city's magnates?
My old foundation, those thousands of cavalry, is still unknown whether they live or die!
Cao Cao, there isn't much hatred between the two of us, are you going to cheat me like this?
I'm at odds with you!
"What does Gong Liu mean, I have to go back to report to Your Majesty!" The old eunuch looked innocent.
It's not that I don't want to ask, it's that I'm forced to ask before I came.
We still have to go back to serve the emperor, and we don't want to die so early.
The eunuch is crippled, but the eunuch also wants to live, and there is nothing wrong with that.
"Big brother, this matter has to be discussed in the long run!" Guan Yu said.
Zhang Fei stiffened his neck: "Second brother, Zilong and the officials went out to play, we finally managed to rush and kill on the battlefield, what else is there to think about in the long run?" If you want me to say, let's lead the troops and set off tomorrow, and let me stab Yuan Shu's kid 10,000 holes! ”
"Yide, shut up!" Guan Yu shouted angrily.
"Second brother, why are you reprimanding me in front of others? Yuan Shu's old boy was not a good thing in the first place, not to mention the deduction of our military exploits and rewards, and mocked all the way, if you want me to say, there is no holy decree, we should all kill that bastard! “
"Since Liu Gong promised to send troops immediately, then we can go back and resume our lives!"
The old eunuch stood up with a relaxed face.
This Liu Bei is really loyal, and he is meticulous in implementing the requirements of the holy decree.
Although it is a decree that was forced to be written, it is still a decree!
"Huh? Ay? ”
Liu Bei was a little stunned, "Who said that the troops were sent immediately, who said it?" ”
