Chapter 166: Cao Cao's Gift

At that time, the general He Jin was alone and was tricked into the palace, but he was killed by a group of eunuchs in a daze.

Cao Cao listened to Cao Hong's words but disagreed, and said with a smile: "Which situation is the same today as that day?" Now Ping'er is the Guanglu Temple, and all the Yulin generals in the inner courtyard of the palace are his men, who dares to disadvantage me?

You can rest assured that you can take people to garrison outside the city. ”

Cao Hong and the others are right to think about it, the Yulin army in the palace is all Liu Ping's men, whoever dares to touch his father-in-law, he will give an order.

Liu Ping ordered someone to open the gate of the palace, and he was about to see Cao Cao, and he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, after all, he did not bring the Son of Heaven to Xu County.

That is, his mission was not completed.

"Son-in-law see father-in-law," Liu Ping saluted Cao Cao.

Cao Cao strode forward, patted Liu Ping on the shoulder, and nodded with satisfaction: "I have heard about what you have done, and it is difficult for you."

I knew it was so dangerous, I should have asked you to bring more troops.

But thanks to your cleverness, you can use only 1,000 people to defeat Zhang Ji, kill Li Dao, and behead Han Xian, which is really very human.

To have a good son-in-law like you, I am satisfied. ”

In fact, he sent Liu Ping over mainly to contact the Son of Heaven, not to rob him, so he didn't send too many military horses.

It's just that what happened later was beyond his expectations, Liu Ping actually used a mere 1,000 men and horses to do so many big things, almost crippled the entire Xiliang army, and killed Han Xian, the leader of the Baibo army, such a record made him not admire.

You must know that if he sent a large army to forcibly rob the Son of Heaven, he would inevitably have to fight head-on with the Xiliang Army and the Baibo Army, even if he could win the battle, the loss would inevitably be not small.

But now Liu Ping basically has no loss, but he has controlled the Son of Heaven in his hands, and he has earned him the official title of General Zhendong and Marquis Feiting.

Who else in the world can achieve such perfection, and what is he not satisfied with?

"But...... If today's son still does not agree to move to Xu County, "Liu Ping saw that his task was not completed, and his father-in-law praised him for a while, so he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, I have another plan," Cao Cao waved his hand, and smiled schemingly: "Let's go and meet the Son of Heaven first, and the Son of Heaven will naturally agree to move east." ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and a carriage came from behind, with two large boxes on it, and I don't know what was inside.

Liu Ping was suspicious and followed behind Cao Cao.

At this time, the Son of Heaven had already moved to Yang Andian.

When they arrived at the gate of the main hall, Cao Cao took off his sword and handed it to the Yulin Army next to him, then took off his boots, bowed down and entered the Yang An Palace, and bowed to the emperor on the throne.

"Minister Cao Cao, see Your Majesty."

This set of etiquette is the basic ritual of the courtiers of the Han Dynasty to pay homage to the emperor, but now that the Han family has its name, this set of court rituals is basically invalid.

First of all, when they go to court in the field or in the yard of a farmhouse, it is impossible to take off their boots again.

Secondly, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Han Xian and others have never taken off their swords when they see the Son of Heaven, and the ministers also have swords in order to protect themselves.

As a result, Cao Cao came to meet the emperor, which was completely in line with the etiquette of the Han Dynasty, and all the ministers could not help but be ashamed.

Now the generals inside and outside the court are all Cao Cao's people, even if Cao Cao wants to luggage Guo Yan's affairs, they have no choice.

But Cao Cao didn't, he still abided by the etiquette of being a courtier, you know, at this time, Yang Andian has not yet been completed, and there is no difference between underground and wild.

The ministers couldn't help but have a better impression of Cao Cao.

"Cao Qing is flat!" Liu Xie nodded, "Qing is not far away, and he led the army to escort him, and his loyalty is commendable." ”

"The king is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the king humiliates the death of the ministers, this is the duty of being a courtier," Cao Cao said respectfully: "This time the minister has brought a lot of things and things back to Your Majesty, please take a look at Your Majesty." ”

"Return to me?" Liu Xie was puzzled: "I don't know what it is?" Present. ”

A few Yulin soldiers came in carrying the two large boxes and put them in the center of the main hall.

Cao Cao stepped forward and opened the box himself, only to see that it was full of some daily necessities that were commonly used.

"Your Majesty, the contents of this box are all temporarily stored in the ancestors and fathers of several generations of emperors, and now they are brought back to Your Majesty, and the minister's wishes are enough."

It turned out that the box was full of royal applications that had been given to Cao Teng and Cao Song by generations of emperors.

Previously, Cao Teng served as an official of the Yellow Gate during the period of Emperor An of the Han Dynasty, and later supported Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Chong of the Han Dynasty, and Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty.

Later, Cao Song took up the post of Tai Lieutenant, attacked the Marquis of Feiting, and there were many things rewarded by the royal family.

At this time, Cao Cao brought part of the original reward.

"The Qing family has a heart," Liu Xie left the throne, picked up a wine glass from the box, and pondered for a long time.

He led the Manchu Dynasty ministers to escape from Chang'an, and he was displaced along the way, and the royal things had long been lost.

However, Cao Cao actually came to pay tribute in the name of returning the things rewarded by the emperor, which was actually to send emergency supplies and save the face of the royal family.

After all, these were originally royal things, and he just returned them.

Liu Ping watched from the side, and couldn't help but be amazed, and let the other party receive the gift calmly, which is the highest level of gift-giving.

He knew that in fact, Cao Cao in history had a honeymoon period with the emperor and the minister.

The emperor led the ministers to wander and wander, and finally arrived in Luoyang, but was controlled by Han Xiana and other rough people, and the big princes such as Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu ignored him.

Later, only Cao Cao, who was not strong, led his army into Luoyang, expelled Han Xian Zhang Yang, and welcomed the emperor to Xu County to worship, completely restoring the old Han system.

At that time, everyone from the Son of Heaven to the Ministers regarded Cao Cao as the pillar of the Han Dynasty.

It's just that Liu Ping thinks, is this the so-called clever plan of his father-in-law? Relying on these things can make the emperor go to Xu County willingly?

I'm afraid not.

You must know that although this emperor has been a puppet all his life, he is definitely not a scheming person, and he is not willing to be a character who is at the mercy of others.

In fact, he is very assertive, and he will never change his mind easily because of these things.

Sure enough, Liu Xie pondered for a while, put down the wine glass in his hand, and returned to the throne: "Cao Qing has a meritorious service in saving the driver, and I have given Qing as the Marquis of Wuping, stationed in the land of Gyeonggi, and rebuilding the imperial capital, what is the intention of the emperor?" ”

"Your Majesty Longen," Cao Cao said unhurriedly, "Another minister wants to impeach a person." ”

"Impeachment?" Liu Xie's eyes widened, quite surprised.

His meaning was obvious, he wanted to rebuild the imperial capital Luoyang, and he would not go to Xu County, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to say anything else, but to impeach.

"Who is Qing going to impeach?"

"Hanoi guards Zhang Yang too much!" Cao Cao said awe-inspiringly: "The minister just learned that last night when the Baibo army besieged the city, Zhang Yang did not move and refused to come to the rescue.

I ask Your Majesty to punish him for the crime of disrespecting the will.

If he refuses to admit his guilt, the minister is willing to personally lead a large army to fight for the court. ”

These words confused Liu Ping, whether Zhang Yang came to the rescue or not, whether he went to Xu County with the Son of Heaven or not, it has something to do with Mao!
