The news of Su Zhe's accession to the throne as emperor and the establishment of the Great Wei State soon spread throughout all states and counties in the world.

The officials and people of all the states were overjoyed and congratulated one after another, and at the same time expressed their loyalty to the new dynasty and the new monarch.

After all, at this time, although the name of the world is the Han Dynasty, the people of the world know that the Han Emperor is just a puppet, and their real ruler is still Su Zhe.

And Su Zhe has been running the world for more than ten years, not only destroying the heroes, but also killing the powerful clans in various states, eliminating most of the potential resistance forces.

In this way, Su Zhe became the emperor, and the clans naturally had no way to resist.

And for ordinary people, for them, it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor at all, what matters is who can give them a full bite to eat.

Over the years, Su Zhe has severely cracked down on the annexation of land by the powerful and powerful, vigorously developed and restored the economy, was politically clear, and employed people on the basis of merit.

The people, who are well-fed and don't have to worry about the threat of war, are too late to be grateful to Su Zhe, and how can they oppose him becoming the emperor.

So when the news of his proclamation of the emperor came out, the people of all states were sincerely happy, and they all said that Su Zhe's proclamation as emperor was the destiny of heaven, and it should have been so a long time ago.

At the same time, the fine works that were densely spread in Xu County also quickly sent the news of Su Zhe's proclamation of the emperor to Chang'an City.

The news spread all the way to Guanzhong, and everywhere it passed, people were shocked and the army and people were uneasy.

You must know that Guanzhong is not under Su Zhe's rule, and the people here have not enjoyed the benefits that Su Zhe brought to them, so they naturally still have the former Han Dynasty in their hearts.

Moreover, Liu Bei occupied Guanzhong, and his banner was also to support Sheji and prosper the Han.

All of a sudden, the Emperor of the Han Dynasty was gone, Jiangshan Sheji Yechan was also ceded to Su Zhe, and the goal set by Liu Bei for the people of Guanzhong was gone, how could they not be at a loss.

And the news came back to Chang'an, which shocked the city.

After Liu Bei learned the news, his heart was full of mixed feelings and mixed emotions.

In fact, as early as when he was defeated in Yiling and retreated to Yizhou, he speculated that Su Zhe would take advantage of the great prestige of the victory of the Southern Expedition to take advantage of the situation to change the dynasty and steal the throne.

In order to deal with the shock of people's hearts after Su Zhe's abolition of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei has begun to create public opinion and give the officials and the people preventive vaccinations in advance.

What he didn't expect was that Su Zhe was so fast, and before the winter had passed, he quickly completed the change of dynasty and ascended the throne as emperor.

And in the three states under his rule, the emotional shock caused by Su Zhe's proclamation of the emperor also made Liu Bei realize that he had to act as soon as possible in order to stabilize people's hearts.

The best way is naturally for him to ascend the throne as the emperor as a member of the Han royal family, re-branding the banner of the Han Dynasty, and snatching the banner of orthodoxy.

It's just that Liu Bei has always used the banner of Kuangfu Han to win people's hearts, even if he has the ambition to be the emperor in his heart, he naturally can't say it himself, and can only hint to his subordinates.

Zhuge Liang knew Liu Bei's thoughts best, and immediately explained to the counties, and constantly said that auspicious things had appeared in various places to create a public opinion atmosphere of providence.

Immediately afterwards, under the leadership of Zhuge Liang, the high-ranking officials of Chang'an City and the Taishou of various counties were sent to Chang'an City like snowflakes, and they persuaded Liu Bei to persuade him to inherit the unification of the Han Dynasty, ascend the throne and become the emperor, and lead them to destroy Su Zhe, a usurper and traitor.

Zhuge Liang's series of methods, Liu Bei saw them all, he didn't say it, but he was very satisfied in his heart, and he didn't make a statement, but only acquiesced to the officials who kept persuading him.

Unlike Su Zhe's calm acceptance, Liu Bei was much more hypocritical, and he was shocked and even quite angry at the persuasion of the ministers.

He was also furious about this, claiming that he wanted to support the Han family and had no ambition to be the emperor, and the officials persuaded him to ascend the throne, which was tantamount to telling him to follow Su Zhe's example, to be the traitor who usurped the throne, and to trap him in injustice.

Liu Bei's righteousness was awe-inspiring, and he really frightened the ministers at the beginning, thinking that what their lord said was what he thought in his heart, and he really didn't plan to be the emperor.

As a result, after the first round of the table, the enthusiasm of the officials to persuade them has obviously decreased a lot, and everyone began to guess Liu Bei's true intentions.

At this time, it was Zhuge Liang who knew Liu Bei best, ignored Liu Bei's "anger", risked "angering" Liu Bei, and persuaded him again.

As soon as Zhuge Liang took the lead, the officials immediately reacted, knowing that their lord wanted to save face, and they had to ask for three or four invitations, so they immediately went to the table again.

For this second round of persuasion, Liu Bei's response was no longer shocked and angry, but helpless.

At a military meeting, he openly asked the officials to understand his plight and stop being aggressive against him and putting him in an unjust situation.

The persuasion of everyone was once again rejected by Liu Bei with high-sounding reasons.

So, after two rounds of persuasion to no avail, in the afternoon of that day, Zhuge Liang led the military generals in Chang'an, hundreds of people, to Liu Bei's military mansion for the third persuasion.

At this time, Liu Bei had already known that the officials were coming, so he waited in the main hall early, pretending to correct the official documents.

When he heard the noise outside, Liu Bei quickly got up, pretending to want to escape, and as soon as he went out, he happened to be bumped into by everyone.

Zhuge Liang ran away, decisively took the officials, and blocked Liu Bei back into the main hall.

Then, Zhuge Liang led the officials to kneel down in front of the hall in an uproar, and implored Liu Bei to be the most important person in the Han Dynasty, ascend the throne and become the emperor, and continue the Han Dynasty.

Looking at the subordinates who were kneeling all over the ground, one by one and extremely sincere, the corners of Liu Bei's mouth twitched slightly, and a trace of imperceptible joy passed by.

The joy passed in a flash, and Liu Bei's gray face turned into a bitter gourd face in a blink of an eye.

"I told you a long time ago, although I, Liu Bei, am a member of the Han royal family, but I am only a partial branch, and everything I do is only to support the Han family and destroy the rebels, but now you call me the emperor, isn't this to trap me Liu Bei in injustice?"

Liu Bei had a bitter face, and with that helpless expression, it seemed that he was about to kneel.

Zhuge Liang said with a straight face: "Although the lord is a partial branch of the royal family, but now the Son of Heaven has been killed by the Su thief, and the bloodline directly under the royal family has been cut off. ”

"Killed? Are you saying that the Son of Heaven was killed by the Su thief? Liu Bei was taken aback.

Zhuge Liang said with a heavy expression: "This is also the news we just got, after the Su thief usurped the throne, he was afraid of the existence of the Son of Heaven, but secretly sent someone to drown the Son of Heaven into the Yellow River." ”

Liu Bei's body was shocked, shook a few times, and fell to the ground with a shocked face.

After a while, Liu Bei suddenly howled and cried, and shouted: "Your Majesty, how can you just go like this, you are all incompetent, and you didn't save Your Majesty from the hands of the Su thief in time, Your Majesty~~"

Liu Bei cried with tears, full of grief and indignation, and all the officials in the hall were infected by this scene and shed sad tears.

Zhuge Liang hurriedly stepped forward, supported Liu Bei, and said: "Instead of crying here, it is better to turn grief and anger into strength, inherit the unification, and ascend the throne as the emperor, so as to order the people with lofty ideals in the world to jointly crusade against the Su thief, and rejuvenate my Han country!" ”

As soon as Zhuge Liang took the lead, the officials were in an uproar and bowed down again.

Liu Bei wiped his tears with his sleeves, but his hidden face quietly flashed a hint of satisfaction.

Of course, he was satisfied with Zhuge Liang's lie.

Although all the news shows that Su Zhe just demoted Liu Xie to the 'King of Chen Liu', gave him enough fiefs and food estates, and let Liu Xie feel at ease to be a rich man.

So what.

Anyway, whether Su Zhe treats Liu Xie well or kills Liu Xie, it is not up to him to have the final say.

As long as Liu Xie dies and the direct bloodline of the emperor is severed, then any Han royal family is eligible to inherit the unification.

Looking at the world, there are very few remnants of the Liu royal family, except for him Liu Bei, who holds the land of Sanzhou, who still has the strength and courage to dare to ascend the throne and claim the emperor, and announce the inheritance of the Han Dynasty to the people of the world.

Zhuge Liang grasped Liu Bei's desire to save face, so he made up this lie, so that Liu Bei could be the emperor with peace of mind.

"Accept it now, will it be too early......

Liu Bei's eyes rolled a few times, and suddenly he screamed in pain, covered his head and fainted on the steps.
