Although it is called a partial hall, it is actually not much different from the wing rooms of ordinary rich families, with blue bricks all over the floor, plastered walls, and furnishings are also extremely simple, and there is no luxury and wealth of the emperor's family at all. On top of the two low cases, the wine and food were already prepared, and Emperor Han Xian knelt behind the cases and waited for Liu Ze's arrival.

After Liu Ze entered the hall, he bowed to Emperor Xian and said, "Minister Liu Ze see Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Xian stretched out the sleeves of his robe and said, "Uncle Huang is exempt." He turned around and instructed the attendants, "I have something to say to Uncle Huang, so let's stand down." ”

A few attendants said indifferently: "I am in danger of the emperor's safety, and I dare not leave my post without permission." ”

Emperor Xian was furious and said: "King Jing is my imperial uncle, is it possible that he is still afraid that he will murder me?" ”

The attendant said: "There is no such intention in the humble position, but it is only the duty of the humble duty, and I will never dare to disobey the order!" ”

Emperor Xian said angrily: "I should be the Son of Heaven, I ordered you to retreat, do you dare to disobey the order?" ”

The attendant was silent, but had no intention of leaving.

Liu Ze understood that these attendants were all sent by Cao Cao to monitor Emperor Xian, and in addition to obeying Cao Cao's orders, he ignored Emperor Xian's orders of Han Xian. The palace is just a big cage for Emperor Xian.

Liu Ze took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Presumptuous, before the Son of Heaven drives, how can you be so rampant!" Don't you think that just because you are Cao Sikong's people, you dare to be so presumptuous in front of the Son of Heaven without a king and a father, believe it or not, this king will treat you for a great crime of rebellion and cut off a few of your heads? ”

Chilling eyes like electricity. With a kind of compelling coercion, he shot at those attendants, and those attendants shuddered, who Liu Ze is, they know very well, even Cao Sikong has to give three points, if he really gets angry and cuts off the heads of several of them, it is estimated that Cao Sikong will not dare to do anything, and they will die in vain. The attendants hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "King Jing forgives his sins!" King Jing forgives his sins! ”

Liu Ze waved his robe sleeves and said: "Retreat for me, if Cao Sikong wants to hold you responsible, let him come directly to this king!" ”

A few attendants scurried with their heads in their hands. Liu Ze sneered. Seeing those people leaving, he just turned around, but saw Emperor Han Xian kneeling on the ground, crying: "Please Uncle Huang save me!" ”

Liu Ze let out a cold sweat. Hurry is to put your hands together. Said: "His Majesty is the body of ten thousand gold. Don't do this, torture and kill the minister. "Forcefully, Liu Ze pulled Emperor Xian up. No matter how you say that the emperor is also the king of a country, kneeling down to a courtier, what kind of system it becomes, this is no one sees, if it is seen, I don't know how many rumors will spread.

After Emperor Xian got up, he still had a sad look on his face, and he said sadly: "Since the little nephew succeeded to the throne, he has been treacherous and male, first Dong Zhuo brought disaster to the country, and then was rebelled by Li Guo, and he was displaced, and several people died. Later, Cao Cao, thinking that he was the minister of the society, but he didn't mean that he was more vicious than Dong Zhuo, dictatorship of the country, good at prestige, usurpation of the heart, passers-by know, every time the little nephew saw it, he was like a thorn in his back, and he couldn't stand on his own in fear. The little nephew begged the imperial uncle to save him, otherwise the little nephew would not know where the callosum died! ”

Liu Ze couldn't help but feel a little difficult, Emperor Han Xian's situation, he didn't know, he didn't want to save, he really had more than enough strength and not enough strength, with his current strength, at most he could only maintain a balance of power with Cao Cao, and this also relied on Yuan Shao's pressure on Cao Cao in the north, otherwise Cao Cao would definitely not be so vain. Concurrently leading a Yangzhou pastor, sealing a prince or something, it will not harm Cao Cao's interests, Cao Cao naturally turned a blind eye, but Emperor Han Xian is different, he is an important chess piece in Cao Cao's hands, Cao Cao wants to use him to blackmail the Son of Heaven to order the princes, it is absolutely impossible to give up lightly.

"Don't worry, although Cao Cao has two hearts, but now the general trend of the world is undecided, Cao Cao will not dare to act rashly, and His Majesty is as stable as a mountain in Xudu." Liu Ze had to say something reassuring.

Although Emperor Han Xian is close to the age of the crown, but after all, he is still a young man, Liu Ze came to the court, and naturally regarded Liu Ze as a life-saving straw, and gave him an official and a knighthood, thousands of graces in one, his purpose is only one, that is, to let Liu Ze save himself from the sea of suffering, and now after listening to Liu Ze's prevarication, although he understands that Liu Ze also has a hard time, but it is inevitable that he is deeply disappointed.

Liu Ze saw the loneliness and disappointment on the face of Emperor Han Xian, and couldn't help but feel compassion, such a young man, if he was replaced by a child of an ordinary scholar's family, it was when he was in his prime, under the wings of his parents, living a carefree life, but history chose him to be the last king of the Han Dynasty, so that this young man's originally slender and thin shoulders to pick up the burden he could not bear, the world of the Han Dynasty, to this step has been difficult to return, only with the enthusiasm of the young son of heaven, how to have the power to return to heaven, Shi also! Luck also!

"Your Majesty should understand that now both inside and outside Xu Du are Cao Cao's henchmen, even if the minister has the power to reach the sky, it is impossible to save His Majesty from Xu Du, if he does it recklessly and forcibly, he is only afraid of endangering His Majesty's life. Although Cao Cao had a conspiracy, it was not yet time to usurp the throne and stand on his own, and His Majesty only needed to forbear. The minister is a descendant of the ancestors and the Han family, and he never dares to forget the surname of the ancestors. The minister is in Xuzhou for a day, Cao Cao is afraid for a day, as long as the minister is still alive, Cao thief will not dare to be the emperor. When the ministers and soldiers are ready, it is the day to fight against the thieves, please relax your majesty, sit in the palace, and wait for the good news of the ministers. ”

Emperor Han Xian could only nod, wiped his tears and said: "Jing, Anye, Uncle Huang must not lose hope, Jing to eliminate the national disaster, and return me to the Han Dynasty." ”

┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄┄

Guo Jia was only the first strategist under Cao Cao, and he did not take up his post in the court, so Guo Jia did not participate in yesterday's court meeting, and heard the news that Liu Ze was named King Jing, and hurriedly came to Cao Cao. Guo Jia was frail and sickly, and trotted down all the way, panting, red face and red ears.

"Son of Heaven...... Feng Liu Ze as ...... King Jing...... Lord...... Why didn't the lord stop it? Guo Jia said out of breath.

Cao Cao is in the garden at the moment, and his subordinates are busy preparing for a banquet to entertain Liu Ze, seeing Guo Jia's appearance, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile, and said: "It's just a prince and king, there are many princes and kings in the world, why should Feng Xiao be so surprised?" ”

Guo Jia gasped for half a moment, let his breathing evenly, saw Cao Cao disagreed, shook his head and sighed: "The princes and kings are not terrible, what is terrible is that the princes and kings, Liu Ze holds the military power and the territory, this time he will be crowned a prince, and he will definitely be above all the princes, and the lord's coercion of the son of heaven will make the princes fight against each other, and the lord will want to balance Liu Ze in the future." ”

Cao Cao said with a smile: "Feng Xiao is too worried, Liu Ze is just a fictitious prince, and he doesn't even have a feudal country, so what's there to fear?" ”

Guo Jiadao: "If it is really a real kingdom, there is nothing to fear, a prince king can only give orders in his own jurisdiction, Liu Ze's false title as the king is the most terrible, there is no designated fief, Liu Ze is not the king of the designated kingdom, but the king of the whole world, in other words, Liu Ze is now the pastor of Xuzhou Muyang, then Liu Ze is now the king of Xuzhou, the king of Yangzhou, if one day Liu Ze expands his power to Qingzhou Yanzhou, he is also the king of Qingzhou Yanzhou." ”

Cao Cao secretly pondered Guo Jia's words, what Guo Jia said was very reasonable, Liu Ze was falsely named King Jing, it seems that a prince king who does not even have a fief, but has a status beyond other princes, his jurisdiction is his kingdom, every time he annexes more land, the scope of his kingdom will be expanded, Cao Cao can coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and Liu Ze can use the status of the princes to order the princes, it seems that on this issue, he thinks a little simple, and he is playing with this young son of heaven between the palms, It seems that he is a scheming master, and he will have to strengthen his control in the future.

Guo Jia said again: "Yesterday in the court, the lord should try his best to stop it, it is true that Liu Ze has great achievements, but it can't reach the point of sealing the king, at most the marquis of four counties and ten thousand households will be at the top, no matter how much food there is, it is also a marquis, it is harmless, but once he becomes the king, the meaning is completely different, Liu Ze's current position surpasses the three dukes, I am afraid it will not be beneficial to the lord." ”

Cao Cao pondered for a moment and said: "The edict of the Son of Heaven has been issued, and it has been announced to the world, and the matter of Liu Ze's sealing of the king has been confirmed, and it is difficult to change it, so what can I do?" ”

Guo Jia didn't complain too much about Cao Cao, since Liu Ze's matter of being crowned king is already ironclad, it is useless to say anything now, Guo Jia is also the kind of pragmatic person, there are all kinds of medicines sold in the world, but there are no regret pills for sale, this kind of truth Guo Jia is naturally very clear, so he didn't dwell on the past anymore, and said bluntly: "Since Liu Ze has been decided, the lord must change his strategy, today's meeting in the garden should be the time for the showdown between the lord and Liu Ze, and the war with Yuan Shao is imminent, Liu Ze's attitude is very important, If he can ally with it, the lord will have no worries and free up his hands to fight to the death with Yuan Shao. ”

Cao Cao nodded and said: "What Feng Xiao said is extremely true, it's time for a showdown with Liu Ze. "Today's banquet in the garden, Cao Cao had already planned to have a substantive meeting with Liu Ze, different from the retreat of the reception banquet, this time Cao Cao has set a pragmatic tone, and must finalize the relationship between the two sides with Liu Ze, Cao Cao has not much time to play.

At this time, the doorman reported outside the pavilion: "Qi Cao Gong, King Jing Liu Ze is asking to see you outside the garden." ”

Cao Cao's spirits perked up, Liu Ze really came at the invitation, Guo Jia arched his hand and said: "The distinguished guest has arrived, and Jia will retire first." With that, Guo Jia bowed and retreated. Cao Cao personally went to the gate of the garden to greet Liu Ze. (To be continued......)
