In the autumn of the twenty-sixth year of Jian'an.

Under the repeated persuasion of Chen Qun and other ministers.

Cao Pi ignored Sima Yi's opposition and resolutely proclaimed himself emperor.

In the same month, a grand ceremony was held.

As soon as the news came out, the world was shocked...

…

Yizhou, Chengdu.

Liu Bei held a silk silk in his hand and sat in the lobby of the Han Palace's mansion with a gloomy face.

Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng and others stood in front of them silently and respectfully.

"Kong Ming!"

After a long time, Liu Bei threw the silk silk in his hand aside, rubbed his eyebrows and spoke.

"The minister is here!" Zhuge Liang bowed.

"How are the preparations for the original Northern Expedition?"

"King Qiqi, after the autumn harvest, the army has enough food and grass, and after it is ready, you can go to the battle!"

Zhuge Liang replied seriously.

"At this rate, we'll have to wait at least two months!"

Liu Bei slapped the table and spoke coldly.

"Now, Cao Pidu has usurped the Han Dynasty and established himself, how can we and the Han Chen be indifferent?"

In the face of Liu Bei's anger, Zhuge Liang could only sigh lightly.

To be honest, he didn't expect this Cao Pi to be so decisive.

In today's situation, he dares to be the emperor rashly.

I have to admit that he is very bold.

At this time, Fa Zheng, who had been silent from beginning to end, spoke.

"When the emperor is still alive and everyone is watching, Cao Pi still dares to act like this.

Either he wants to be an emperor and wants to go crazy, or he is quite sure that he can face everything that is about to happen! ”

Fa Zheng has always been a pragmatist, which is the biggest difference between him and Zhuge Liang.

He never uses moral, moral or other words to perfunctory his goals.

If Zhuge Liang wasn't here at the moment, he might have said that when everyone wanted to be the emperor, Cao Pi rushed to be the first bird.

This is where Liu Bei likes Fazheng and wants to surpass Zhuge Liang.

With Zhuge Liang, I had to be infected by the other party's righteousness and moral nobility, and some words could not be spoken.

Even if you want to say it, you have to go through some packaging before you can say it.

Fazheng is different, with him, you can do whatever you want and speak freely.

Liu Bei's fingertips tapped rhythmically on the table in front of him.

"Our Northern Expedition is going to be advanced, and this time I will go in person!"

A moment later, Liu Bei said this sentence without question.

"Kong Ming, you will guard Chengdu and provide food, grass and ordnance for the army!"

Zhuge Liang didn't seem to have any surprises.

He just smiled slightly, and then folded his fist and said yes.

Immediately, he took his leave and left here.

There was no rebuttal, no change in expression, as if it was a normal thing.

It's not that he doesn't want to say it, it's not that he can't say it.

It's useless to say it, after learning the news that Cao Pi was called emperor, Zhuge Liang expected this scene.

Because this is an excellent time to send troops, how could Liu Bei, who is ambitious, let go of such a good opportunity.

Even after the autumn harvest, he was impatient to wait.

Liu Bei's impatience could no longer be concealed.

Sure enough, after arranging Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei's expression immediately changed.

Liu Bei, who was angry and deplorable for the big man just now, disappeared.

Instead, there was a burst of laughter.

Zhuge Liang, who walked far away, seemed to be able to hear this laughter.

"Filial piety (Fa Zheng, the word filial piety), filial piety, this is an opportunity given to me by God!"

Liu Bei excitedly grabbed Fa Zheng's hand and kept saying to him.

"Cao Pi's perverse actions will definitely open the door for our army!"

Feeling Liu Bei's slightly trembling hands, Fa Zheng smiled slightly.

He is the person who knows Liu Bei best, and he knows very well that Liu Bei has always regarded himself as a royal family.

Today, whether it is Cao Pi, Sun Quan, or Xu Tian, they are all kings.

If you talk about who is most qualified to be the emperor, Liu Bei will of course move forward bravely.

But he couldn't say it directly, he could only suppress this excitement in his heart.

Only when the Fa is in front of the Fa will it be fully revealed.

"Yes, God will be entrusted to the King of Han, and he will be invincible!"

Fa Zheng held his head high and bowed deeply to Liu Bei.

"Xiaozhi thinks, how will Sun Quan and Xu Tian react?"

After the excitement, Liu Bei gradually calmed down.

Being able to ask this question shows that Liu Bei has not been confused.

Fa Zheng coughed lightly and said with a serious face.

"Sun Quan will be that uncertain factor, in terms of strength, he is second only to Cao Pi.

However, the position he was in limited his movements.

Going north to attack Wei was something he wanted to do but couldn't do easily.

Therefore, Sun Quan should not be involved in this matter, but take the opportunity to recuperate and wait for the times to change!

The biggest threat to us is still that Xu Tian!

First of all, the emperor is like Xiangyang, and he is also a trump card in his hand.

Everyone knows what he wants to do, but if there is a second emperor today, he will definitely be more anxious than you, King Han! ”

"Huh?"

When he said this, Liu Bei frowned and glanced at Fa Zheng.

Fa Zheng realized that he might have said the wrong thing, and coughed dryly and bowed apologetically to Liu Bei.

"Go on!"

Liu Bei's eyes closed slightly, and he said lightly.

"According to the following opinion, after this Xu Tian learned the news, he would definitely announce it to the world in the name of the emperor as soon as possible.

Bitterly criticized Cao Pi for usurping the Han Dynasty and establishing himself, using his own army as the capital, calling on the world to jointly crusade against Cao Pi!

This is one of the reasons why I conclude that Sun Quan may not do it.

After all, in Xu Tian's hands, there is still what he Sun Quan wants most! ”

After finishing speaking, Fa Zheng stood aside and fell silent.

Liu Bei paced back and forth, frowning, and fell into deep thought...

…

The autumn sun is still a little scorching.

Under a big tree surrounded by three people, Xu Tian lay on the recliner he made, enjoying this rare leisure time with his eyes closed.

In front of him, there was also a small table.

It was filled with a variety of snacks and a pot of hot tea.

With the sound of the "squeak" of the recliner, the drowsy Xu Tian was very comfortable.

After nearly a year in business, his estate has been completely formed.

It's like a paradise.

In that huge field, rice, wheat and other crops paved the place golden yellow.

Numerous servants and craftsmen giggle at the endless crops all day long.

All this in front of them was like a dream for them.

No.

They don't even dare to dream of such a day.

Time passed slowly, and the shadows of the trees moved with it.

Until the sunset hung in the sky, Xu Tian under the tree was reflected in a fiery red.

It was at this time that Shen Du, Pang Tong, Lu Tianba and others walked into the manor.

Under the guidance of the servants, they saw Xu Tian lying under the tree...
