At dawn on December 30 of Zhongping, Cao Ying sent his henchmen Cao Ren, Cao Chun, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan to each order 5,000 soldiers and horses to guard the gate of Xuchang Sifang, and ordered Li Dian, Le Jin, and Yu to lead 3,000 soldiers to patrol the city.

And when it is said that the time comes, the Son of Heaven will set up a court...... As usual, Liu Xie slowly walked into the Golden Palace amid the eunuch's shout, and after the hundred officials led by Yang Biao shouted long live, Liu Xie waved his hand and said lightly, "Zhong Aiqing is ......."

Halfway through speaking, Liu Xie suddenly found that there were many officials missing from the court, except for some officials who died in the Xuchang Rebellion and Liu Xie knew it, there were still many officials who had not arrived.

As one of the three princes, Jiang Zhe of the Situ position...... No, but for him, Liu Xie has long been used to it, as long as it is an early dynasty, this guy obviously won't come! Only in the Wu Dynasty, which deals with urgent affairs, will he appear, and Liu Xie doesn't want to say anything more about this, in his heart, this is already a habit of nature, although Jiang Zhe just can't get up from the gentle township...... However, to Liu Xie's surprise, even Cao Ying had never come!

Could it be that he really said that he was serious yesterday? Liu Xie frowned slightly, sat on the dragon chair and waved his hand and said, "Zhong Aiqing is flat!" "The poor officials in the court knelt for a moment more for no reason.

"Alas!" Xun Yu, who was facing up, couldn't bear to glance at Liu Xie, sighed and shook his head, but Cheng Yu, who was beside him, sneered and glanced at the Son of Heaven not far away, his eyes full of schadenfreude.

If Cao Mengde doesn't come, he won't come! Although Liu Xie is not angry and has no way, he can only treat Jiang Zhe like he treats and let it go, but compared to Jiang Zhe, Liu Xie is obviously more disgusted with Cao Ying.

Yawned, Liu Xie stretched out his right hand and said, "Zhong Aiqing has something important to do, if there is nothing to do, let's disperse!" When he said this, his heart was actually extremely sad and angry, since when did the early dynasty discuss important matters in the world have evolved into a formality, a formality, all important matters have been dealt with in the Xuchang Thorn History Mansion early, and what is left to report is some trivial things, Liu Xie is very disgusted by this!

The ministers looked at each other, and no one came out, Liu Xie saw it, and sneered in his heart, got up and waved his hand, and said in a deep voice, "Since there is nothing to do...... Scatter the dynasty! ”

"Wait!" Suddenly, there was a heavy shout from outside the Golden Palace, and then in the stunned eyes of everyone in the Golden Palace, Cao Ying walked in with a deep face, walked straight to the bottom of the dragon platform, and said in a deep voice, "Minister...... Something's up! ”

For Cao Ying was just a fist, but he didn't give a big salute, the ministers talked for a while, and the old lady Yang Biao glanced at Cao Ying's face, and then looked around at several ministers of the Cao Ying faction, thinking in his heart.

Liu Xie looked at Cao Ying in disbelief, only to feel that Cao Ying seemed to be a different person, which made Liu Xie a little difficult to identify.

Without waiting for Liu Xie to speak, Cao Ying glanced around at everyone and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, since General He Jin was martyred, there is no one in the court who can occupy the position of general, so I feel very inappropriate in my heart, now that the Han Dynasty is in trouble, all the princes in the world do not respect the royal family, and there should be one person in this position to please the minister!" What do you think? ”

Cao Mengde is forcing the palace! Yang Biao's heart froze, he never thought that Cao Ying would be like this today, he glanced around at the ministers, sighed in his heart and said, "If there is a boy surnamed Jiang here, the old man can still rely on the old man and sell the old, refute Cao Mengde a few words, but unfortunately this son is not there...... I'm afraid that there is no one in the DPRK and China to persuade Cao Mengde!

"You!" Liu Xie's face turned red, and his fingers trembled and pointed at Cao Ying, but Cao Ying's face did not change, and his eyes were cold.

The ministers of the DPRK and China all looked at each other, and did not dare to participate in the confrontation between Liu Xie and Cao Ying.

Dong Cheng licked his lips and said lightly, "I'm afraid it's inappropriate for Lord Cao!" ”

"Oh?" Cao Ying replied with a sneer, "Lord Guozhang thinks it's best to say a few words, so as not to hurt your body, and don't blame me for not being merciful at that time!" ”

"......" Looking at Cao Ying's cold eyes, Dong Cheng was frightened and took a step back.

"Aiqing!" Liu Xie got up abruptly and said in a deep voice, "Why is Aiqing like this, is it because she wants to force the palace?" ”

"Haha!" Cao Ying smiled brightly, looked around at the ministers and said, "Everyone, can you force the palace?" ”

The ministers were afraid of Cao Ying's power, and they didn't dare to speak, and even the captain Yang Biao closed his eyes and was silent.

"Humph!" Liu Xie snorted angrily and shouted, "Since Aiqing has never forced the palace, then...... Scatter the dynasty! ”

As soon as the ministers heard that the Son of Heaven said that the dynasty was dispersed, they actually pulled out their legs and squeezed towards the palace gate.

"Who dares to go?" Cao Ying shouted in a deep voice, "Come back with me!" Stay alive! ”

In Liu Xie's shocked and angry eyes, all the ministers returned to their places and stood one after another, neither daring to look at Liu Xie nor Cao Ying, just staring at the masonry under their feet.

The untouched ones in the court were Yang Biao, the chief lieutenant, Dong Cheng, and a series of ministers of the Cao Ying faction.

Cao Ying turned to look at the ministers, and said in a cold tone, "You haven't replied yet!" ”

Feeling the knife-like gaze sweeping over him, Yan Hui hurriedly stepped out and said, "What Lord Cao said is extremely true, the court should restore the position of the general!" ”

As soon as this person said this, all the ministers were not fools, and they echoed their words, which made Liu Xie's heart burn with anger and it was difficult to contain himself.

"Huh!" Laughing angrily, Liu Xie pointed at Cao Ying, and then pointed to the ministers of the DPRK and China, and said to Cao Ying in a deep voice, "According to Aiqing's opinion, who should be in the position of general?" ”

Cao Ying clenched his fists slightly, and said lightly, "The minister is not talented, and he is willing to take on this responsibility!" ”

"What a talent...... Liu Xie gritted his teeth, his body trembled angrily by Cao Ying, and said angrily, "You are going against the grain, and you will be ashamed of the world!" ”

"Really?" Cao Ying smiled faintly, looked around at the ministers and said, "What do you think?" ”

The ministers were afraid of Cao Ying, so they could only say in unison, "Your Majesty Mingjian, the position of a general is none other than Lord Cao!" ”

"You ...... You ......" Liu Xie was shocked and angry, his chest rose and fell angrily, and he couldn't even finish his words.

"Your Majesty, please give an order!" Cao Ying said coldly.

Looking at Cao Ying's cold eyes, although Liu Xie was unwilling in his heart, he was helpless, gritted his teeth and said, "Spread my will, order...... Ordered Cao Ying and Cao Mengde to be generals! Hum! ”

Since he has torn his face, Liu Xie has even removed the title of Aiqing, anyway, he understands very well in his heart, Cao Ying doesn't dare to do anything to him no matter what, Liu Xie, who has tasted the heat and coldness of the world, is now quite broken.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Cao Ying smiled and bent over, and when he looked at Liu Xie's angry and frightened heart, he sneered in his heart.

"So can you praise Lord Cao's heart?" Liu Xie sneered, waved his sleeves and walked to the back of the hall.

"Wait!" Unexpectedly, Cao Ying called Liu Xie again, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty Mingjian, now there are many vacancies among the ministers of the DPRK and China, and it is not good for the government, so the ministers have drawn up a list, and I hope Your Majesty will agree to be canonized!" ”

"You!" Liu Xiefang had already suppressed his anger, but now he couldn't bear it anymore, and said angrily, "If you want to seal it, you seal it yourself!" Then he waved his sleeves and walked into the back of the hall angrily.

"Humph!" Just when the ministers of the court were worried that Cao Ying would be angry because of this, Cao Ying laughed, looked around at everyone and said, "Did you hear that?" Your Majesty has handed this matter over to the Great General! ”

What a general! Yang Biao sighed in his heart.

The ministers looked at each other, even Dong Cheng and his faction ministers didn't dare to embarrass Cao Ying at this moment, everyone had to shout, "I'll hear it!" ”

Cao Ying looked at those ministers who were like grass on the wall, sneered in his heart, walked to the dragon platform with everyone's stunned eyes, unfolded the silk book in his hand in front of everyone, and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty's will, this general is here to canonize Er, where is Captain Yang Biao?" ”

"Huh?" Yang Biao opened his eyes suddenly, turned his head a few thoughts in his heart, hesitated to come out of the queue and said, "The old minister is here!" ”

Cao Ying looked at Yang Biao lightly, and said sonorously, "The old lady is loyal to his duties, guards the Han Dynasty, and has both talent and learning, and his moral character is supreme, he can be the emperor's teacher, and from now on, he will be promoted to the emperor's master!" ”

"Old minister...... Thank you, long live Your Majesty, long live Long live! "Old lady, ah no, it's the old lady Yang Biao who smiled helplessly in his heart.

To put it nicely, it is the emperor's teacher, in fact, it is an idle position, compared to the Tai Lieutenant, the Tai Shi is just called a little better, in terms of real power, it is simply a world of difference, if you change a person with no reputation as the Tai Shi, I am afraid that even the guards and generals of the city gate will not pay attention to you.

Yuan Highway, the old man was miserable by you! Yang Biao shook his head and returned to the column, looking directly at the ministers in shock.

In just one moment, the old lady's official position was stripped away?

If it weren't for the fact that you were close friends with your righteous uncle Situ Gong, and remembered that you had not been in turmoil when your son Xuchang rebelled a few years ago, I would have directly asked you to return to your hometown! Cao Ying sneered in his heart and shouted loudly, "What is Jiang Shouyi...... Cough! Respect Your Majesty's will, canonize Situ Jiang Zhejiang Shouyi as Jingzhao Yin Xu Duling, Yuzhou Thorn History, Yingchuan Pavilion Marquis, and still resume the position of Situ! ”

"Hiss......" Hearing this, the minister of the court gasped, and Wang Li hesitated and said, "The general is above, and the lower official has something unclear, how can he come to the post of Jingzhao Yin Xu Duling?" ”

Because Wang Lixiang said that he had never been embarrassed by himself, Cao Ying was not surprised, and said softly, "Your Majesty is coming to Xuchang, so Xuchang will be the master of the Han Dynasty. ”

The king's face froze, and he arched his hand back to the column.

Cao Mengde actually valued the boy surnamed Jiang so much, Taishi Yang Biao opened his eyes slightly, and said secretly in his heart, It's okay, in this way, the Yang family is in Xuchang...... Xu Du can also be safe!

Seeing that no one dared to speak out against it, Cao Ying was also a little relieved in his heart, he was also afraid that the ministers would all oppose it, so could he still kill them all?

"Where is Xun Wenruo?"

Xun Yu hesitated, then bowed his hand and said, "The general is above, Xun Yu is here!" ”

Cao Ying nodded, and said softly, "Respect Your Majesty's will, canonize Xun Yu as a servant, and keep the order of the book......"

Alas! Xun Yu sighed secretly in his heart, and thanked him, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

Subsequently, Cao Ying made Xun You a military advisor, Guo Jia was Sima Saijiu, Cheng Yu was a guard lieutenant, Li Ru was a court lieutenant, Liu Ye was Sikong Cang Cao Peng, Mao Jue and Ren Jun were Diannong Zhonglang generals, Fan became Juancheng Taishou, Dong Zhao was Dongjun Taishou, and Manzhong was Yanzhou Thorn History.

Among the generals, Xiahou Yuan is the general of Zhengdong, Xiahou Yuan is the general of Zhengxi, Cao Ren is the general of Zhengnan, Cao Chun is the general of Andong, Cao Hong is the general of Anxi, Yu Ban is the general of Annan, Li Dian is the general of Pingdong, Le Jin is the general of Pingxi, Zhao Yun is the general of Pingnan, and the rest of Lu Qian, Dian Wei, Li Tong, Gao Shun, Yang Ding and others are all captains, and the rest of the soldiers are each crowned officials.

Cao Ying got the Son of Heaven's 'promise', called himself the general, Wu Pinghou, and since then the power has been attributed to Cao Ying: the great affairs of the imperial court, first Cao Ying, and then the Son of Heaven.

It is worth mentioning that for the position of Taiwei, Cao Ying listened to Xun Yu's suggestion and gave it to Yuan Shao, which can be regarded as currying favor with Yuan Shao in disguise and stabilizing the relationship between the two forces.

Cao Ying changed Xuchang to Xudu, and rewarded the ministers in the court, so that there were more and more vassals of Cao Ying, and Liu Xie was forced to change the year name to Jian'an at the meaning of Cao Ying.

Therefore, the third year of Zhongping can be called the first year of Jian'an, which is the beginning of Cao Ying's move towards the ministers......
