Chapter 610 Alternative Forced Palace
The Emperor's Palace is in Jinyang City, only a street away from the General's Mansion. Liu He went out and arrived shortly after leaving.
The guards at the entrance of the palace were all his people, so they naturally had a smooth journey. Soon, under the leadership of Gong Saner, they came to a hall.
Sure enough, the emperor Liu Xie was sitting on the throne, and Yang Biao, Wang Yun, Cui Lie, Huangfu Song, Lu Zhi, Zhu Jun, Zhong Yao and others were in two shifts. As soon as he walked in, everyone's eyes instantly looked over.
Liu He could clearly see the expectation and joy in these people's eyes, which made him even more confused.
"My minister Liu He, see Your Majesty."
"Uncle Emperor, don't be too polite, please get up quickly." Emperor Xian's tender voice came, and Liu He stood up and looked at the ministers around him.
"I don't know that Your Majesty is eager to invite his ministers to come, but what are the important things to discuss?"
Emperor Xian did not answer immediately, but secretly looked at Yang Biao, Wang Yun and others. The two of them nodded with smiles at him. He swallowed and then spoke.
"I know that the emperor's uncle worked hard and made great contributions, and he had to spend a lot of energy to establish Yunhai County. This achievement is obvious, and it is comparable to Emperor Xiaowu. I was eager to recruit him to the palace in order to reward the emperor's uncle."
When Liu He heard that it was this matter, he replied: "Your Majesty is too good. Emperor Xiaowu has expelled the Xiongnu from Beihai and conferred his achievements in Langxu. The world is peaceful and he worships all over the world. Now, the princes have emerged in our Han territory. Although Yuan Shao has been destroyed, there are still Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan, Liu Biao and others who are openly respectful and secretly demoted the court and disobey the emperor. What kind of virtue can the ministers be able to compare with Emperor Wu?"
"As for rewards, there is no need. Your Majesty has given me the title of me to enter the court without going, praise and worship without being named, and the sword and shoe are in the palace. As a general of the dynasty, I am the most powerful minister. I am above all the officials. I have no choice but to ask for anything else. I only hope that the enemy will be wiped out as soon as possible, and I will be able to defeat Your Majesty's hope, and the late emperor will be entrusted with the orphans."
At this time, Wang Yun stood up: "The General is too humble. The General was killed by the Yellow Turbans at Shangdang, defeated the Xianbei in Yanmen, killed the Xiongnu in Xitou, killed Yuan Shao in Jizhou, and also wiped out bandits, expanded territory, encouraged farming and sericulture, and prospered business and tourism, resulting in the prosperity of national strength and the prosperity of the people. The civil governance has the style of literary and spiritual practice, and the martial arts inherited the Han and Wushu's careers. Now there is Ji, the territory of the Ministry of Education, with millions of troops and thousands of good generals, and it seems that it will only take several years to clarify the world."
"Wang Situ, you..."
Liu He was about to politely shirk his responsibilities, but Huangfu Song also stood up.
"What Situ said is very much. When Shangdang fought against the Yellow Turbans, I knew that among the generals, there were generals who commanded all officials, to restore the country and country of the Han Dynasty and restore the glory of the past, which was just around the corner."
"Yes, after the emperor was promoted to the general, he made many contributions. However, he has never given any rewards again. Now that his Majesty is wise, the general does not need to retreat."
Zhu Jun also spoke.
Liu He looked at them. These ministers suddenly got together today. It was impossible for him to flatter him specifically? This made him very confused and had no clue at all.
"Since your Majesty has given you the gift, I will thank the emperor first. I wonder what reward Your Majesty has? I can defeat Yuan Shao, all the soldiers are united. If Your Majesty has rewards, it is better to reward the soldiers first. What do you think?"
Emperor Xian looked happy and hurriedly said, "That's true, I have rewarded all the generals. Please ask the Grand Marshal to read it on his behalf."
"Old minister obeys the order." Yang Biao took two steps forward, took the imperial edict, and stood not far in front of Liu He.
"In accordance with the will of heaven, Emperor Zhao said: The general led troops to fight in all directions, and made outstanding achievements, and achieved achievements in quelling chaos at home and opening up borders outside. All the generals under his command were loyal and brave. Now he specially added Guan Yu as the General of the Cavalry and was conferred the title of Marquis of Yangting."
"Add Cheng Liang as General Fenwei and was granted the title of Marquis of Yongting."
"Add Zhang Yong as General Zhe Chong and granted the title of Marquis of Han Ting."
"Add Zhu Ye as General Hu Ben and was granted the title of Marquis of Wanyang Ting."
"Add Ye Xiang as General Yangwei and was granted the title of Marquis of Yongting."
"Gao Shun was appointed as the general of the defensive bandits and was granted the title of Marquis of Anzhengting."
"Class Zhang Liao as the Ranger Captain."
"Capt Zhao Yun is..."
After reading this imperial edict for most of the day, there were twenty or thirty people on the list of rewards, including Qin Chu, Yanquan, Qian Ning, Xu Huang, Zhao Yun, Wang Han, Deng Yuan and other generals who were promoted to the post, and Xun Yu, Xun You, Cui Jun and other advisers also added the title of Ting Hou, which was a complete achievement.
"I thank Your Majesty for your kindness on behalf of all the soldiers."
Liu He thought in his mind that Emperor Xian’s reward this time was extremely heavy. Guan Yu and six others all had their official general titles, and they would become the legitimate General Guan and General Cheng from now on. I don’t know what rewards they would have for him. After thinking about it, they were nothing more than just promotion to the Grand Sima.
He thought to himself, Emperor Xian suddenly spoke: "Please come up and talk."
"Huh? What?" Liu He's thoughts were interrupted. When he heard that he was about to go up, he was suddenly confused.
Yang Biao smiled and reminded: "Your Majesty summoned the general to come forward and talk, the general just went."
Liu He looked at his smile and always felt that there was a deep meaning, but Emperor Xian had already urged him to do so.
"Uncle Emperor, come up quickly."
Liu He could only obey the order: "Here."
He took a step, walked to the steps in front of Emperor Xian, then went up the steps, and came all the way to the throne where Emperor Xian sat.
"I wonder what your Majesty has to give?"
The child Emperor Xian suddenly grinned, then jumped off the dragon throne and grabbed Liu He's hand.
"Uncle the Emperor."
"Oh, sit... um? Ah? What? Where to sit?"
Liu He was so scared that he was so scared that he was so scared that he was so scared that he was so scared.
"Your Majesty, don't make this joke. This is the emperor's throne. How can I offend my throne? Such a mess of etiquette is absolutely not allowed."
He quickly retreated, but found that the way back he retreated was blocked by Yang Biao and others.
"You...this..."
He seemed to have understood the reason why he mobilized so many troops to summon him today.
Emperor Xian looked innocent: "Did the emperor forget what I said to the emperor when he retreated from Luoyang that day?"
When he was reminded, Liu He remembered that he had just evacuated Luoyang at night and the army was stationed in Hanoi. He brought Emperor Xian and many ministers to Jinyang and announced that Jinyang should be used as the temporary capital. Gong Saner came to report that the emperor was in good health and urgently summoned him to go there.
That day, the emperor of Han lost his last little majesty and threw himself into the arms of his uncle. He was in great pain and expressed his grievances. He completely became a child who complained to his elders.
He repeatedly muttered the same sentence: "I don't want to be an emperor anymore, I don't want to be an emperor anymore..."
Now that Emperor Xian has brought up the old story, Liu He is very upset when talking about this matter.
Sure enough, Emperor Xian held his hand and looked aggrieved: "That day I asked the emperor to be the emperor, and the emperor agreed. When the northern territory has been settled, the war will be breathing a little. Now Jizhou has been settled, and Yunhai County is about to be built. Should the emperor fulfill its promise? I will immediately abdicate the throne to you. I often hear the little eunuchs in the palace mention that Yanmen is extremely prosperous, Yinguan City has the image of Luoyang, the north of Yanmen, thousands of miles of grasslands, endless. I have longed for it. After the emperor ascended the throne, I will grant me the title of Yanmen. I will raise horses for my Han court. How about it?"
Liu He was so troubled by his words. That night, Emperor Xian did mention this matter, but he had no choice but to find an excuse and refuse. Unexpectedly, he took it seriously.
"But... but the abdication is of great importance, how can we play like this? We will discuss this matter later."
It was not that he had never thought about being the emperor, but the sudden incident made him feel at a loss. Moreover, ascending the throne to the emperor has a great impact. For himself now, he must make a clear decision before making a decision.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he said this, Yang Biao and others said in unison: "Because of this, Your Majesty specially invited me to come and discuss it together. All our ministers have agreed that the General was the direct bloodline of Emperor Guangwu. He was qualified to do the job in terms of bloodline, character, qualifications, and reputation of the government. Just wait for the General to nod to agree, and I immediately chose an auspicious day to build a Fengshan platform and announce it to the world."
"No, no, this matter is too hasty, and Youzhou and Qingzhou are still in the hands of Luoyang Yuan Shu. I will discuss this matter again."
If I became the emperor without warning, if the heroes in the world used this as an excuse to attack him, no matter how strong my strength was, I would probably be difficult to resist.
Liu He wanted to escape, but was surrounded by all the ministers and could not escape at all.
"You guys are...ah, why did the ministers mislead me?"
Lu Zhi smiled and said, "Gongsun Bogui is my student. I don't know how brave and capable he has? As for Jiao He, Kong Rong and others in Qingzhou, they have always been loyal to the Han Dynasty and have many contacts with the general. The old ministers have already sent him to him many days ago. This is Jiao. Kong and the two of them respect the reply of the general to be emperor. If the general still has doubts, I would like to go to Youzhou alone to meet Gongsun Zan and bring him to Jinyang."
"As for Luoyang, it is not a problem. Even if Yuan Shu and Cao Cao join forces, they are not the enemy of the general. Moreover, they will fight endlessly. Soon, the general will send a general to lead 30,000 to 50,000 troops, which is enough to pacify. Following the trend, the two prefectures of Yan and Yu will be able to recover the imperial control. The general will not have to refuse."
"That's right, the emperor is loyal to his loyalty, and I am loyal to you. The general must not be suspicious. Please ascend the throne as soon as possible!"
