After some discussion, since Xiahou Shang's troops had been defeated, Zhang Fei would lead the cavalry north to support Zhang Wei and Wei Yan first, while Guan Yu would send some men and horses to Yuzhou and Xuzhou to support Deng Tong and Ma Zhong, and the rest of the men and horses and Ma Chao's troops would continue to clear the remnants of the enemy around Luoyang, and respond to Fa Zheng, Liu Feng and other men and horses who were still fighting with the enemy in the southern mountains.

Ge Liang led Zhang Nan, Gao Xiang, and Wang Ping to follow to Yecheng.

In addition, Liu Bei also sent someone to inform Xu Shu that there was no need to march to Luoyang for the time being, and he hurried to Shanyangyi in Hanoi to protect Liu Xie's safety.

He himself was not busy going to Luoyang first, but stationed in Xingyang first, and only let Ma Liang lead a group of men and horses to Luoyang to be responsible for restoring order.

Because Cao Pi abandoned Luoyang and left, the commander Xiahou Shang was captured by a mutiny, and the remaining Wei army was surrounded on all sides and had no way out, and soon collapsed, abandoned his weapons and surrendered.

The generals were busy recruiting and dismissing the surrendered troops. Liu Bei waited for another two days, and when he saw that everything had calmed down, he decided to go to Shanyang to greet Liu Xie in person.

Liu Xie was forced by Cao Pi at the beginning, so he had to issue an edict to Chan Han Yu Wei and retreat to Shanyang Turbid Lucheng, so he could not help but sigh and cry alone.

But then news came that Liu Bei had captured Guanzhong on the western front, and Xiangyang and Wancheng on the southern line had formed a flanking attack on Luoyang, which made him suddenly feel a little relieved, and secretly prayed that the Han family could be revived again.

Of course, he could only pray in secret. Since the failure of the edict incident many years ago, Liu Bei fled, and Dong Cheng and others were killed by Cao Cao, he has calmed down a lot and no longer dares to confide in others easily.

After that, the imperial physician Ling Yoshimoto and Shaofu Geng Ji, Si Zhi Wei Huang and others jointly started an incident, trying to occupy Xuchang and unite with Guan Yu in the south, but they still failed. Cao Cao was even more angry, and took the ministers who remained in Xuchang hostage to Yecheng, and then killed the people he thought were close to the Han family, and replaced them with people who were close to the Cao family.

At this point, even if Liu Xie has a heart, there is no one to talk to.

Later, Guan Yu flooded the Seventh Army and shocked Huaxia, and when he saw the troops approaching Xuchang, he was attacked by Sun Quan again, and when he returned to Jingzhou, all the people and horses in Wei who responded to Guan Yu were purged again.

Liu Xie just smiled bitterly at that time, perhaps, is it really a big man who is going to die in heaven?

Therefore, when a large group of people collectively approached and wanted to Zen in Cao Pi by himself, he did not hesitate, cooperated with Cao Pi Sanrang to make a play, and handed over the emperor's position.

Anyway, it has long been controlled by others, and resistance is only futile, and selfishness cannot stop other people's ambitions, so it is better to save your life first.

Now Liu Bei, Guan Yu and others are making a comeback, although they have successively attacked the city and forced Luoyang, but who knows if there will be any accidents?

Even if Liu Bei takes Luoyang, he has already ascended the throne and become the emperor on his own, and he has edicted the world to let the Han family be in Cao Wei, and he has already become the sinner of the Liu family through the ages, so what face does he have?

Forget it, don't think about it so much, it's better to worry about whether Cao Pi will be angry and send someone to kill him to vent his anger.

On this day, someone came to report that Dong Zhao and Liu Fang had led hundreds of men and horses and had arrived in Turbid Deer City, and sent troops to close and surround the gate of the four exits.

Liu Xie sighed, if it was really Cao Pi who sent someone to kill people to vent his anger, then he couldn't hide from it, he would still come, so just face it calmly.

He straightened his clothes, but went out and waited for himself.

Dong Zhao and Liu Fang arranged the people, and hurriedly rushed to the mansion, and saw that Liu Xie was already standing at the door from a distance, so he quickly dismounted, and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt: "See Your Majesty, we are too late to escort!" ”

Liu Xie was taken aback by the words and deeds of the two of them, what are you doing here, calling the wrong person, right? It's been a long time since I didn't be an emperor! He cautiously asked, "Emperor Wei asked you two to come here, do you have any will?" ”

Liu Fang's role changed quickly, and he immediately said: "Your Majesty, where did the Great Wei Emperor come from, this world is still the world of the Han family, and the emperor is still the emperor of our Liu family." ”

Dong Zhao was more steady, and said slowly: "A few days ago, the former General Zuo had captured Guanzhong in the west and recovered Nanyang in the south. And now, they have captured Xudu and attacked Luoyang on both sides. Cao Pi was so frightened that he gave up Luoyang and fled to Yecheng. ”

"yes, yes." Liu Fang grabbed the words, "Now that Cao Pi's defeat has been decided, it won't last long to escape to Yecheng." Our Han family is in the world, and after Guangwu Zhongxing, Yunzuo will be continued. ”

Are you sure? Liu Xie secretly cheered in his heart, but let's try it safer again, won't it be a deliberate trick to catch my truth? So he said seriously: "You talk like this, call the name of Emperor Great Wei, have you forgotten the consequences of Geng Ji, Wei Huang and others?" ”

Liu Fang immediately looked sad and angry and wanted to cry: "Pity my loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty, who have been poisoned by the father and son of the Cao family!" ”

Dong Zhao's face was still calm: "Your Majesty, in fact, we have always been loyal to the Han family." I have been holding back before, that is, I realized that the luck was not good, and I would give my life in vain, and I would be in danger for Your Majesty. Now that Cao Pi is at a loss, we should naturally come forward in time to escort Your Majesty. ”

Liu Xie didn't believe that they were so good, and only asked, "Then how did you get here?" ”

Dong Zhao waited for him to ask, and immediately opened his mouth to come: "Your Majesty, then Cao Pi sees that the situation is critical, and the people of the world are thinking of Cao Cao, and may want to hold His Majesty hostage to calm the hearts of the people in the world, so let us come here and force Your Majesty to write an article to denounce Liu Bei's crime." He never imagined that we had forbearance well before, and we just took this opportunity to come to escort us, so as not to endanger Your Majesty's safety during the military disaster. ”

These words made Liu Xie secretly cry out that it was dangerous, and he was glad that he had escaped a catastrophe, and his resistance to Dong Zhao and them was not so strong, but he asked them what the battle between the two sides outside was like.

Dong Zhao told the truth about the news he had heard in Luoyang before, what gods appeared in the sky above Xuchang to help Liu Bei capture the city, and what Wei army was unstable, and it couldn't stop the attacks of Zhang Fei, Fa Zheng and other people from all walks of life.

That's right, it seems that Cao Pi is really powerless to cover the sky at this moment, Liu Xie put his mind at ease, but then calmly reminded the two: "Liu Bei can get the blessing of the gods and raise troops to recapture the Central Plains, which is naturally the luck of my Han family, and the destiny of heaven returns." Don't call me Your Majesty here anymore. I am a sinner of the Liu family, and it is already a blessing to let the Han family suffer another catastrophe, and to be able to survive my life, and no longer be coerced and used by others to be afraid day and night. ”

Liu Fang glanced at Dong Zhao, and felt that Liu Xie seemed to be reminding them, as if he saw that they were trying to coerce and use him again.

Dong Zhao is pragmatic, and when he heard Liu Xie say this, his heart has been put down.

If Liu Xie really wants to restore the throne, then he might as well go directly to Liu Bei's side to tie him up and die!

So he continued Liu Xie's words and said: "General Liu Zuo's benevolence is far and wide, and he was proclaimed emperor after His Majesty was forced by Cao Pi to become the emperor of the Han Dynasty. All the people under him have followed the conquest for many years, and they are born and died, and they are indispensable to the heart of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, which is naturally the intention of respecting Liu Bei as the emperor. ”

That's the reason, Liu Xie nodded slightly.

Dong Zhao said again: "However, Liu Bei, as a relative of the Han family, since he raised troops in the name of reviving the Han family and ruled the world, he will definitely respect His Majesty's first emperor, and he will definitely not let His Majesty succumb to this narrow land again." ”

"Then what do you mean......" The news came too suddenly, and Liu Xie hadn't thought about what position he should be in in the future.

Dong Zhao said softly: "I estimate that in a few days, Liu Bei will send someone here to greet Your Majesty, and in the future, he may also propose to return the throne to Your Majesty." If that's the case, Your Majesty ......"

Speaking of this, he paused, wanting to wait for Liu Xie to say it himself.

Liu Xie's head was messed up for a while, and he suddenly felt that Dong Zhao and Liu Fang persuaded this guy to abdicate all day long, and the one who took the throne was really hateful!

Dong Zhao saw that Liu Xie didn't react for a long time, for fear that he would have other ideas, so he hurriedly reminded again: "If it is still not peaceful today, when the times are in turmoil, a strong emperor is needed to deter the world." I just think that if Liu Bei says that he wants to be in His Majesty at that time, His Majesty might as well take the initiative to ask for the name of the first emperor to be crowned as a king, and at the same time show the world that Liu Bei is the emperor. In this way, for His Majesty, Liu Bei, and those soldiers under him, it is a situation that is satisfactory to all parties. ”

Makes sense, it makes sense! Liu Xie couldn't help but nod his head twice.

Dong Zhao hurriedly kowtowed and requested: "If the time comes, Weichen is willing to be loyal to His Majesty again and perform the government of fiefdom for His Majesty." ”

He had already thought about it, he would definitely not be able to please Liu Bei, and he might be found out if he hid, so it was better to be a minister of state or something in Liu Xie's future feudal country, so he didn't have to worry about anything.

A few days later, Xu Shu arrived with his army, took over the defense of Shanyang, and proclaimed Liu Xie the first emperor, saying that he had come to escort him on the orders of the Han Emperor.

Liu Xie has also made up his mind to open the treasury and comfort the soldiers.

A few days later, Xu Shu met and said that Liu Bei had set off from Xingyang and came to welcome the emperor back to the old capital Luoyang.

Liu Xie hurriedly led people out to greet him.

After traveling dozens of miles, the two teams saw each other from afar.

Liu Bei hurriedly dismounted. Liu Xie hurriedly got out of the car.

Both of them hurried towards each other, and when they were about ten paces apart, they knelt on the ground at the same time.

"Liu Bei, the sinner, greets the holy driver!"

"Liu Xie, the sinner of the Liu family, greets His Majesty the Han Emperor!"

Liu Bei hurriedly explained: "When I heard the rumors, I thought that His Majesty had been harmed by Cao Pi, so I was not allowed to ascend the throne to continue the Han Zuo. Now Your Majesty, Liu Bei has returned to the throne since Angelica, and he is guilty of awaiting punishment. ”

Liu Xie hurriedly defended: "I, Liu Xie, are unable to maintain the Han family, but fortunately, Your Majesty has reproduced the Guangwu Holy Miracle, so that the Han family can continue again, so that Liu Xie can still retain the last trace of face to sacrifice to the clan." ”

……

Now it's troublesome, the two of them knelt and humbled each other for a long time, and neither of them would stand up first.

Because whoever gets up first will be held up!

Everyone also looked helpless, and it was not their turn to interject at this time!

In the end, Xu Shu couldn't do it, stomped his foot suddenly, pointed to the distance and shouted: "It's not good! Who is that over there? It can't be the wandering Wei army coming to sneak attack, right? ”

"Huh?" Liu Bei and Liu Xie hurriedly stretched out their hands at the same time and helped each other to stand up.
