Chapter 524

Cao Cao's jade belt beaded shoes, his waist hung against the heavenly sword, surrounded by all the guards, he came proudly, and his powerful aura made the originally sunny faces of those royalists unnatural.

Although Cao Cao is only ranked as the third duke, he has already obtained the privilege of "praising and worshipping the unknown, and going to the palace with a sword", so he can bring a sword into the court.

"Haha! You're here so early, but I'm late. Another hearty laugh came.

Everyone turned around in surprise, but saw a person wearing a white jade crown and a brocade robe, fluttering in, and the smile on his face made the eyes of the royalists brighten.

All the royalists hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and the vastly white and chic salute one by one, atmospheric and unassuming, so that the ministers were like a spring breeze, and their hearts were even more impressed.

Haobai looked up at Cao Cao not far away, with a smile on his face, he strode over, and shouted with a big grin: "Meng De, get up so early, have you eaten!"

Cao Cao looked stunned, and didn't react to Haobai's nonsensical greeting for a while, and said for a long time: "Eat!"

However, the next sentence drove him crazy: "Have you eaten enough?"

The anger on Cao Cao's face flashed, and he said expressionlessly: "I'm full, there is no famine in the house yet." ”

Haobai smiled and continued to ask, "Have you eaten well?"

Cao Cao: "......"

Seeing that Cao Cao didn't answer, Haobai turned his gaze to the Heavenly Sword on Cao Cao's waist, and asked with a smile: "This official is the first time to go to the court, and he is not familiar with the place of life, and the etiquette is not clear, please give me more advice." ”

Cao Cao: "......"

Haobai took a few steps closer and deliberately lowered his voice, but he let the ministers behind him hear it clearly: "Meng De, this official is really scared when he goes to court for the first time, how can he pretend to be a frequent court, do you have to wear a sword like you to show your difference, otherwise how will people know that I am a hussar general, or how about you lend me a sword to use!"

Cao Cao: "......"

The ministers behind him have always been afraid of Cao Cao like a tiger, and they didn't even dare to look at Cao Cao.

......

The time for the pilgrimage is approaching.

A group of forbidden soldiers in red clothes and silver swords surrounded Liu Xie and slowly walked in.

Although Liu Xie is neatly dressed and walks like a tiger, he is very different from usual, his face is a little less gloomy and depressed in the past, and he looks radiant and high-spirited.

He walked in gently, as if walking into a dormitory, with endless calmness and indifference, a faint casual smile, and a touch of free and uninhibited color in his eyes.

Walking to the dragon chair, he gently pressed the armrest, and sat on the throne on his toes without any traces, and put his hands on the armrests on both sides at will, and glanced at the military officials of His Royal Highness slightly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, he no longer seems to have restraints and constraints, and he no longer needs to worry about anything, he is the supreme king of the world, above thousands of people, and everyone submits to his feet and obeys his will.

He raised his head and looked at His Highness, only to see that the civil and military officials were lined up on both sides, the smile on the corner of his mouth became thicker, and he slowly waved his hand at the eunuch in front of the palace.

"Go to court!"

"Your Majesty, ten thousand years!"

This time the cry was particularly neat and loud.

No one played the book, everyone held their breath, waiting for the exciting moment to come, and the will of the meritorious man to be rewarded for the rebellion was announced.

Without saying anything, he came directly to the step of rewarding, and a Wenguang opened a scroll of edicts and read slowly:

The original general of Polu, Sun Jian, Marquis of Wucheng, worshiped as General Pingnan, Marquis of Wu.

Former General Fenwu, Wenhou Lu Bu, worship as General Pingdong, Pingtao Marquis, Xuzhou Mu.

The original Marquis of Wuping, Sikong Cao Cao, worshiped as the Marquis of Wei.

Liu Bei, worshiped as a martyr, a hussar general.

Yuan Ninghou, hussar general, Jingzhou Mu Haobai, worship as the general, Wuhou, authorized to enter the court, praise and worship the nameless, sword shoes on the palace.

......

The rest of the generals have their own rewards, among which Haobai's subordinates Zhao Yun and Jia Xu also received official official positions.

With the reading of the eunuch in front of the palace, the ministers were all shocked and stunned.

This so-called reward is just like that, originally there were marquis except for Liu Bei, but now it is just equivalent to a promotion of one level, and it is just a change of title.

Sun Jian, Lu Bu, and Cao Cao are okay, they were originally all Hou, and they each had their own territory, but they just changed their names, and they didn't get any benefits at all.

However, the problem lies in Haobai and Liu Bei, Haobai's promotion to a general means that he has become the biggest general, and there is already nothing to be promoted above.

And Liu Bei is like walking shit luck, in the process of crusading against Yuan Shu, basically did not make any contributions, after Haobai was named a general, the hussar general was vacant, but he did not expect to be rewarded to Liu Bei.

It can be seen that Xiao Tianzi's high hopes for Liu Bei are extraordinary, and Sikong Cao Mengde is undoubtedly a major blow.

According to the course of history, if Haobai was not born, Cao Cao should be worshiped as the prime minister, but this time the little emperor is obviously going to have trouble with Cao Cao.

And the privilege of "entering the court, praising and worshipping, and going to the palace with a sword" is even more intriguing, the little emperor is clearly wanting to engage Cao Cao, and he has to have all the privileges that Cao Cao should have.

The audience was silent, and the ministers looked up at Haobai, Cao Cao and Liu Bei, with different expressions in their eyes, including envy, jealousy and hatred for Liu Bei, and schadenfreude for Cao Cao, to name a few.

Just when the ministers were still stunned, Lu Bu was the first to react, and immediately thanked him: "Weichen Lu Bu, thank you, Your Majesty!"

Immediately after that, the other people who were sealed followed suit.

"Weichen Liu Bei, thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Weichen Sun Jian, thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Weichen Zhao Yun, thank you, Your Majesty!"

In the blink of an eye, among the meritorious ministers who were rewarded in the main hall, only Haobai and Cao Cao were still standing.

The two looked at each other and were speechless for a long time.

The eyes of the civil and military officials of the whole hall were also locked on the two of them, and the hall suddenly became silent again, and even Liu Xie's heart was tight.

If Cao Cao is not satisfied with this reward and takes the opportunity to make trouble, then things will become a little troublesome.

Suddenly, Cao Cao suddenly moved, and immediately bowed: "Weichen Cao Cao, thank Your Majesty!"

The officials of the whole hall breathed a sigh of relief, and instead focused their attention on Hao Bai.

Immediately afterwards, he also moved: "Weichen Haobai, thank you, Your Majesty!"

......

After the reward is completed, it is naturally time for the heroes to leave, according to Haobai, that is, they go back to their own homes and find their own mothers.

Fearing that Cao Cao would suddenly attack, the heroes each sent people to make an appointment with each other to set up camp together two days later, and at the same time moved out of the temporary mansion in Xu Du the next day and lived in the big tent of the military camp outside the city to avoid chaos.

Outside the city of Xudu, in the camps of several princes, all the soldiers were packing up their belongings and preparing to leave Xudu the next day.
