Li Qin doesn't like the name of Taishi, according to his original intention, he wants to change to a different one, for example, the prime minister, he likes this official name very much, he is called the prime minister by others, it is very Zhuge Liang's taste, but he has not thought about the king, it is Jia Xu who wants to give him the king, and it is Jia Xu who implies that the little eunuch is also Jia Xu!

In fact, Jia Xu is also asking for a sky-high price, waiting for the ten permanent servants to land and repay the money, Jia Xu has read a lot of books, and he understands many rules, of course he knows that those who are not surnamed Liu are not allowed to be crowned kings, so he naturally thinks that the ten permanent servants also understand, and the people around the little emperor also understand, since everyone understands, naturally there is no such thing as a king, and he can't offend Li Qin, so he naturally has to compensate elsewhere, as for how to compensate, that's what the ten permanent servants and the ministers around the little emperor think about, in short, they won't lose Li Qin, That's for sure!

But neither Li Qin nor Jia Xu thought that the eunuchs were different from the ministers, what rules were unruly, the rules were kept by others, they only needed to supervise others to abide by the rules, and they themselves would not abide by them, didn't Li Qin want to be crowned king, that seal was it, what's the big deal, and don't spend their money!

When the holy decree and the golden seal of the king were sent, Li Qin and the generals were in a meeting to study the position of the Yellow Turban Army, if there was a war, what kind of tactics should be used, and there was a holy decree in the city, Li Qin naturally wanted to take the generals to welcome the decree, but when the little eunuch finished reading the holy decree, the tent was quiet, silent, and no one reacted!

The little eunuch said with a stammering face: "King Xia, you, take the order!" ”

Li Qin sighed, stretched out his hands, took the holy decree, and said, "This Zhongguan, you are not mistaken, King Xia, I was crowned king by the emperor?" Isn't there a rule that non-Liu can't be crowned king? What's going on? As he spoke, he stood up.

Jia Xu behind him also stood up, and Jia Xu asked, "Who wrote this holy decree, does the little emperor know about it?" ”

The little eunuch hurriedly said: "If you return to Lord Jia, it is the emperor's meaning, it is written by Zhang Da's father, and the emperor's seal!" ”

Li Qin took the holy decree, read it several times from beginning to end, and handed it to Jia Xu for Jia Xu to read again. Li Qin asked: "Why did you make the king, don't you have to abide by the rules left by Gaozu?" This is really weird! He even wondered if this was a trap, Zhang Rang was going to set a trap for himself!

The little eunuch hurriedly said: "When Father Zhang was drafting the edict, the little one was waiting, and I heard what Father Zhang said, Gaozu originally said that the ministers should no longer be allowed to establish people with the surname Liu as kings, but that was said to the ministers, and it has nothing to do with the internal servants, isn't it now that Father Zhang drafted the edict for the emperor, the emperor didn't say no, that is, it is okay, so he wrote this holy decree!" ”

Jia Xu raised his head and looked at the little eunuch with a flattering smile on his face, he suddenly smiled too, and said: "That's what I said, asking for a name for my family Li Lang, I don't think Zhang Zhongguan is still serious, when this edict was written, I didn't discuss it with other ministers, but who stopped it?" ”

Since the holy decree has been written, and the king has been sealed, it proves that the sky-high asking price is successful, but whoever in the city does not agree with Li Qin to be crowned king, must abide by the rules of Gaozu, but the list is still to be known, whoever opposes it is the bane, and it is a scourge to keep it, and the Fujiao Army will naturally eradicate the people on the list before they go on the expedition!

The little eunuch blinked his eyes, shook his head and said: "I didn't listen to anyone's objection, and the emperor didn't object, Father Zhang gave him a lot of sugar, as long as there is sugar to eat, the emperor will make decisions very quickly!" ”

Li Qin was stunned, Jia Xu was also stunned, and the generals of the whole account collectively opened their mouths, no, give the little emperor some candy, and you can be crowned king, this is too easy!

Jia Xu smiled and said: "Come on, go buy more sugar and send it to the little emperor." Well, just let the sugar master live in the palace, and when the emperor wants to eat, make it for him now, and eat it hot! ”

Li Qin sighed, eating sugar and eating hot, I had never heard of this before. He turned his head and asked Jia Xu: "This time I think I have to go into the city, go to the palace to thank you, by the way, I have to excuse myself, right?" I can't be the emperor to make me the king of Xia, I will accept the decree directly, I am too immodest, I have to resign three times, I can't push it back again, right? ”

Jia Xu hadn't answered yet, but the generals in the tent said together: "Li Lang, it seems that there is no need, the little emperor has good intentions, you can get his favor!" ”

But the little eunuch was busy and said: "No, no, Father Zhang has thought about these things for the prince, if you are busy, you won't enter the city if you don't enter the city." You see, the edicts that follow are ready! ”

As he spoke, the little eunuch took out two copies of the holy decree from his arms and said: "The rule of three pushes and three concessions, this is to be observed, so Father Zhang wrote three copies of the holy decree, you push it once, and I will give you another copy, after three copies, the prince You can no longer shirk, Father Zhang said, this is called the king has granted, and the minister can't resign!" "I handed over the two holy decrees to Li Qin, and even the procedure of kneeling down to receive the decree was waived.

Li Qin took the holy decree and opened it to take a look, and what was written on it was naturally that Li Qin should not shirk, but should be the king of Xia with peace of mind, and he should be loyal to the little emperor, and he should be a loyal minister at all!

After a few glances, Li Qin really couldn't cry or laugh, this Xia Wang was too cheap, and they all said that the eunuchs were doing things simply, but this was too simple!

After Jia Xu read the holy decree, he couldn't bear it, laughed, turned back to the generals and said: "The little emperor and Father Zhang still know how to do things, this favor must be given, we can't accept it!" ”

The generals were all so excited that their faces were red, the tide rose, Li Qin was crowned king, their future was naturally infinitely bright, how could there be no reason not to be excited, they laughed loudly, everyone advised Li Qin, do not live up to the emperor's kindness!

Li Qin sighed and said, "I am dedicated to serving the imperial court and serving the emperor......"

The little eunuch hurriedly said: "Of course, of course, the loyalty of the prince can be demonstrated!" ”

Li Qin continued: "I have never thought about personal self-interest, and I don't seek fame or profit......

The little eunuch hurriedly said: "That's that, fame and fortune are like dung to the prince, and they have always been disdainful!" ”

Li Qin thought to himself: "This little bastard answered the call quite smoothly, no wonder Zhang Rang sent him!" ”

But he was afraid that this was a conspiracy after all, he remembered that there were many emperors in history who wanted to kill the ministers, all of them were high-ranking officials first, and then when the ministers went to thank him, he took the opportunity to kill the ministers, didn't that Dong Zhuo die like this, thinking that Liu Xie wanted to give him the Zen position, but as soon as he went to be sealed, he was killed. It's okay to see others being fooled for this kind of thing, there's no need to be fooled yourself!

Li Qin said: "That's fine, you go back and tell Zhang Zhongguan, thank him for bothering." Well, I'll lead the troops to the battle, and I'll leave the matter in Beijing to Lieutenant Officer Zhang. After all, he didn't say anything about going into the city to give thanks.

After thinking about it, he said again: "After I leave, I'm afraid that some people in Beijing will disobey Zhang Zhongguan, Zhang Zhongguan now has no direct army, in case of some accidents, I'm afraid that he will be difficult to solve, you go back and ask, if Zhang Zhongguan needs, I will send an army to stay, be his direct army, only listen to his dispatch alone, if not, then I will send troops, and he will recruit some recruits, don't use the Yulin army, I'm afraid that when the time comes, he can't move, and the recruits are still obedient, so that they can be called!" ”

The little eunuch agreed, and when he saw that Li Qin had no other instructions, he immediately took his leave and returned to the city. Before leaving, Li Qin rewarded him with a lot of jewelry, and asked him to Zhang Rang and other ten permanent servants to bring a land deed to each of the ten permanent servants, the land on the land deed, Zhang Zhang is ten thousand hectares, the location is in Bingzhou, it is Li Qin's gratitude to them, and now the state is taken care of by Zhang Qin, so the land of the state is given to them, and the eunuchs can rest assured, this is to leave a way back for them, even if there is an accident in the future, the ten permanent servants lose power, then with thousands of hectares of fertile land, how can they live the rest of their lives comfortably!

The little eunuch was sent away, Jia Xu and the generals congratulated Li Qin together, the news spread out, the entire Fujiao Army barracks, cheering, the leader was crowned king, this is a great thing, in the entire Han Dynasty, Li Qin was an official knight, has reached the peak, if you want to go further, that is to kick the little emperor away, he himself is the emperor, there are almost no people who have this kind of idea before, but now many people have this hope in their hearts, want to be the founding father. Of course, this can't be said directly, and it's not interesting to pick it out!

After two days, all the matters of the expedition were ready, Li Qin led the troops to the expedition, the little emperor was held by Zhang Rang, and also came out of the city to see Li Qin off, when the emperor was in this role, it was enough to worry about it, fortunately Liu Xie was too young, and he had not yet had a concept of imperial power, otherwise the minister would not go to see him, he would have to see off the minister, he could not afford to lose this face alone, he had to cry, and it was not good to give no amount of sugar to eat!

Zhang Rang was originally quite worried, what if Li Qin went out on the expedition and someone rebelled in Beijing, even if Li Qin left the army, but the army would not listen to his own call, what if the "suppression" was not timely and hurt them? Their ten permanent servants are becoming less and less useful to Li Qin, maybe the Fujiao army that stayed in Beijing will deliberately suppress them in time and let the rebels kill them, which is very likely!

Knowing that Li Qin was willing to divide troops to his subordinates, he was unwilling to accept it, in case the Fujiao army assigned to him listened to him on the surface, but in fact secretly monitored him, wouldn't it be bad! He can recruit troops on his own, and the soldiers he needs are ready to come out, which is exactly what he wants. The treasury in Luoyang has been robbed, he has no money to recruit soldiers, if Li Qin is willing to pay, then why doesn't he recruit new soldiers? Just like Li Qin said, recruits are easy to call, as long as they give more benefits, they can still rest assured in terms of loyalty!

Thirty miles away from the city, Zhang Rang hugged Liu Xie and sent Li Qin away, Li Qin did not leave the headquarters of the Fujiao Army in the city, nor did he stay in the entire Gyeonggi area, but in other places, he left more than a thousand veterans, mainly to let the veterans recruit some new soldiers and do some propaganda for the Fujiao Army, and if there are some small rebellions or something, a thousand people are enough to deal with!

Zhang Rang sent Li Qin away, he thought to himself: "While Li Qin is not in Luoyang, there are not many troops left, I should also develop my own strength, I have the emperor in my hands, and my name is justified!" ”
