The next day, in the palace of Xuchang, in the early dynasty, the civil and military officials, led by the servants in the palace, lined up in two teams according to usual practice, and entered the palace hall from the palace gate to wait. Not long after, an attendant ran out of the side door of the main hall and looked at the civil and military officials, and immediately shouted in a sharp voice: "Your Majesty, come!"
"Long live your majesty! Long live! Long live!" At the homage of hundreds of civil and military officials, Liu Xie, wearing an imperial robe, slowly walked onto the dragon chair from the side door. After sitting down, he looked at the hundreds of civil and military officials and said loudly. Yelled: "Zhongqing's family is flat!"
After the civil and military officials got up, Liu Xie glanced at the officials, but he showed an unexpected expression, and then asked loudly: "Why don't I see the prime minister today?"
As soon as Liu Xie’s words fell, a civil official appeared immediately, but it was Cheng Yu, then Shangshu, who only heard Cheng Yu bow to Liu Xie and said: "Return to your Majesty! The prime minister criticized government affairs last night, and I felt the wind. Therefore, you cannot go to court today, and the special minister asked your majesty to leave. Please forgive your majesty!"
Hearing that Cao Cao could not come to court today, Liu Xie's eyes suddenly brightened. In fact, every time Cao Cao stood next to Liu Xie and handled various government affairs on behalf of Liu Xie, Liu Xie felt restless. Although he knew that Cao Cao was not coming to the court for the time being, at least he was at the court today and Liu Xie was relaxed. a lot of. Of course, Liu Xie did not express the joy in his heart, but said in a deep voice: "That's it! The prime minister is working for the country, and he deserves to be a loyal minister of the Han! Come, the imperial physician in the palace will go to the Xiangfu to diagnose for the prime minister. Don't delay. The prime minister's body!"
In fact, even if there is no such will of Liu Xie. The imperial physician in the palace was also followed by Cao Cao. By doing this, Liu Xie only wanted to sell Cao Cao well, so that Cao Cao would not suspect that he was wrong. After doing such a superficial effort, Liu Xie felt a lot more relaxed. It seems that without Cao Cao, he is now a real emperor! Immediately Liu Xie straightened her body and opened her mouth to say something to everyone, but before Liu Xie could say something, suddenly a shout came from outside the hall: "Meet you, Prime Minister Cao!"
The shout of the sergeant outside the hall immediately spread throughout the hall. The high-ranking Liu Xie was immediately pale when he shouted at Don't. On the other hand, the officials in the hall, except for a few, showed no unexpected expressions. I knew it would be so early! Liu Xie immediately understood that all this was just a trick played by Cao Cao and his party members! Although I don't know what Cao Cao's purpose is, Liu Xie's heart is full of anger when he thinks that he has been fooled.
However, Liu Xie's anger did not last long. When he saw Cao Cao with a sword slung on his waist and army boots under his feet, he walked into the hall with such strides. Especially with Cao Cao's domineering eyes. Liu Xie immediately lowered his head, and the anger in his heart was long gone!
After Cao Cao walked into the hall, he walked straight to Liu Xie, arched his hand to Liu Xie, didn't even bend his waist, and said: "Your Majesty! The minister felt cold and unwell last night, so he was late. Please forgive your majesty!"
Although Cao Cao said so, you can see his face. He didn't mean to apologize in the slightest, but Liu Xie didn't dare to say anything about it. Especially when he saw Cao Cao hand his hand, Liu Xie almost didn't stand up to respond. He said to Cao Cao, "The prime minister has worked hard! The prime minister is unwell. You can stay at home to take care of your body! I... I have already sent the imperial physician to the Xiangfu to treat the prime minister! Please also the prime minister not to be too reluctant!"
"Your Majesty's words are bad!" Liu Xie said good things, but he was directly rejected by Cao Cao. Cao Cao shouted: "Since the minister is a Hanchen, and the world eats Han Lu, he should be loyal to the big man! How can he be loyal to the big man because of his small size? Chaos and abandoning state affairs?"
Cao Cao suddenly yelled so loudly, but he was so scared that Liu Xie was scared. His face was so scared that he was so scared that he couldn't speak! At this time, Cheng Yu went out again, bowed his hand and said: "Your Majesty! The Prime Minister is justified. Your Majesty is the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Every move is related to the national destiny of the Han Dynasty. You need to be cautious in your words and deeds! Your Majesty has improper words. , Please take back the words of aptitude!"
"Your Majesty, please withdraw the foreword!" As soon as Cheng Yu's words fell, most of the ministers in the whole hall shouted in unison, bowing to Liu Xie, all of them, like Cheng Yu, asked Liu Xie to take back what he had done before. the words said!
After hearing this, Liu Xie's face turned pale again, but this time he was not frightened, but angry! You must know that Liu Xie is the emperor of the dignified man. As the saying goes, there is no joke. How can he take back what he said casually? If this time, as Cheng Yu said, he took back what had just been said, wouldn't Liu Xie, the emperor, be disgraced, and he will have no majesty in the future? So Liu Xie didn't want to take back what he said, but looking at the posture of Cheng Yu and the first ministers, if he said this, they would never give up! Liu Xie's body began to tremble involuntarily, although under her butt is the dragon chair that represents the highest power in the world, Liu Xie still feels restless! Immediately, Liu Xie just laughed, and said to Cheng Yu and others: "Everyone, Aiqing, this is a bit of a fuss, right?"
"Your Majesty, please speak carefully!" Liu Xie's words had just been uttered, and Cheng Yu immediately drank a serious voice, but was so scared that Liu Xielian's words were blocked! Not only that, Cheng Yu had just finished speaking, and the other ministers also shouted loudly: "Please be careful, your Majesty!"
"You guys!" If Liu Xie still doesn't know that Cheng Yu and the others did it on purpose, then he is really a fool! Immediately, Liu Xie turned his head to the side and looked at Cao Cao, hoping that Cao Cao could speak for himself, but when Liu Xie's eyes moved to Cao Cao's side, he happened to see Cao Cao's cold pair. In his eyes, Liu Xie shuddered immediately, and immediately said tremblingly: "I... I... I made a mistake, I... I... I take back what I just said!"
"Your Majesty Shengming! It is the blessing of the people of the world! It is the blessing of our waiting." After Liu Xie finished this sentence, Cheng Yu immediately bowed, and led the ministers and shouted in unison. Afterwards, Cheng Yu did not intend to retreat to his own queue, but continued to stand there and said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty! The prime minister has contributed to the community! Now the Han Dynasty continues to be continued, and it is the prime minister's contribution! The minister thought, should be The prime minister was named Duke Wei, and he was given the title of duke, and nine tins were added. Tell the world to calm the people!"
Name Cao Cao Wei Gong? Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Liu Xie's heart suddenly shook, and the cold sweat on his forehead came out. He finally understood that today Cao Cao and his party feathers suddenly came up with such a paragraph, what is their mind? Up! Cao Cao was late, and then used excuses to suppress Liu Xie's prestige. All of this was just foreshadowing. There was only one purpose. Cao Cao actually liked the status of this duke and wanted to force Liu Xie to give Cao Cao the title!
Not only was Liu Xie stunned, but the other ministers who were loyal to the Han Dynasty in the hall were also stunned. Uncle Guo Fu raised his head slightly, his eyes full of anger, staring at the expressionless face in front of him. Cao Cao, can't wait to rush up and bite him into pieces! But Fu Wan knew very well that he was only dying when he rushed forward, and he couldn't even reach Cao Cao's body! In desperation, Fu Wan could only give up impulsive action, gave Cao Cao gritted his teeth, and lowered his head.
But at the moment when Fu Wan lowered his head, Cao Cao's gaze just swept across Fu Wan's body. He saw the silently Fu Wan with his head down like others, and the corners of Cao Cao's mouth grinned, revealing a trace of noness. A clear smile, and then he sternly yelled at Cheng Yu pretendingly: "Cheng Yu! Why are you talking nonsense? I and others are all your majesty's courtiers. Whether or not to award a reward is up to your majesty to decide. Can you make a decision for your majesty? Don't step back quickly!" Cao Cao looked serious, with the posture of a loyal minister in the Han room.
After being so drunk by Cao Cao, Cheng Yu didn't mean to retreat at all. On the contrary, he held his head high and looked reluctant and domineering. Cheng Yu said to Cao Cao: "The prime minister! The subordinate officials are also loyal to the Han Dynasty, so they said what they said before! Nowadays, the world of the Han Dynasty is full of dangers, with Li Lao and Guo Ben in the west, and Liu Xun in the south. Sun Quan and Ma Teng are waiting for the opportunity! Under such a crisis, if the prime minister hadn't stood up to the sky, the sky of this big man would have fallen! At that time, the soldiers have no intention of killing the enemy, and it is not the benefit of the big man? The minister asks your majesty to think twice!"
After Cheng Yu finished speaking, he just bowed himself and bowed to the ground, but although he was pleading with Liu Xie, the direction of his bowing ceremony was clearly towards Cao Cao! And just after Cheng Yu knelt down, nearly 80% of the officials in the hall bowed down and shouted in unison: "Please think twice!" Although the rest of Fu Wan and others were unwilling, they had no choice. Then bowed down.
"You... You... You!" Although the officials were begging. But it can be clearly seen that doing so is actually no different from forced palace! Liu Xie's face was already pale with anger, his eyes widened, staring at the courtiers and Cao Cao. I was trembling with anger! He was forced to take back what he had said before by the group of officials, which already made his prestige scandal! Now if he agreed to the threat of the officials and made Cao Cao Wei Gong, it would really trample the majesty of the Han Dynasty to pieces...
