Chapter 308 Prime Minister, Cao Cao

Cao Jun defeated Yuan Shu, not only annexed Xuzhou, but also captured Shouchun, the capital of Yuan Shu's forces. For a while, the world was shaken, and everyone was amazed by Cao Cao's strength and military might!
After defeating the false emperor Yuan, Cao Cao's reputation has been greatly improved.

The specific manifestation is that when Cao Cao led his army back to Xuchang, because of his prestige, even the people of Xuchang cheered.

Before Cao Cao, he welcomed the emperor and defeated Xiliang; then he defeated Xuzhou and punished Yuan Shu. His actions can be regarded as a model of political correctness.

Therefore, at today's court meeting, there was Yilang who stood up first and reported to Emperor Liu Xiezuo:

"Your Majesty, Cao Taiwei defeated the Xiliang Army earlier and restored the Qingming of the Great Han Dynasty; now he defeated the false emperor Yuan Shu, wiped out the world, and restored the world to be bright and bright!

Therefore, I implore your Majesty to reward Taiwei for his achievements, so as to show the kindness and power of my great man! "

When Liu Xie heard the words, he couldn't help but nodded slightly in agreement.

He is very clear about what Cao Cao did, and he agrees with it very much: whether it is defeating the Xiliang army in the west, or conquering Cao Bao and Yuan Shu in the east, Cao Cao is indeed sweeping away the rebellion for the big man.

Thinking of this, Liu Xie straightened his voice, and said, "Aiqing's words are very much in line with my wishes. Gentlemen, how do you think the Taiwei should be rewarded this time?"

Liu Xie actually had a reward plan for Cao Cao in his heart, but he didn't know if Cao Cao would be satisfied, so he couldn't say it directly by himself.

Let the group of ministers put forward a plan first, even if Cao Cao is not satisfied, there is at least room for mediation.

Following Liu Xie's questioning, another official stepped forward as expected.

Liu Xie took a look, and his heart skipped a beat, feeling a little bad!

It turned out that that person was a loyal fan of Cao Cao, the great Confucian Kong Rong who wrote two poems praising Cao Cao!

I saw Kong Rong cupped his hands and said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty has learned from you.

The Taiwei defeated the false emperor Yuan Shu, and returned the great man to the universe, with great achievements!
The minister thinks that Cao Taiwei can be the prime minister and take charge of major affairs in the court, hoping to suppress all the princes who have evil intentions for the court! "

"Prime Minister?!!" Liu Xie was stunned!
Now when he heard the word prime minister, he felt apprehensive from the bottom of his heart, because Dong Zhuo and Li Jue had both sat in this position before!
The prime minister, in Liu Xie's heart, is equivalent to a powerful minister!
Hearing that Kong Rong proposed to make Cao Cao the prime minister, Liu Xie's face suddenly turned pale.

Liu Xie really didn't want another Dong Zhuo or Li Jue to appear in this court.

Now he is thinking all the time to get back his right as the emperor, how can he watch another prime minister with power emerge?

There was a deathly silence in the hall, and the ministers even deliberately relaxed their breathing.

Liu Xie's eyes wandered back and forth among the officials, and he was looking forward to someone who could stand up to refute Kong Rong's proposal at this time and restore the last dignity for him, the emperor.

But to Liu Xie's great disappointment, no one in the huge court dared to stand up to support him as the emperor.

What's ridiculous is that not only did no one stand up to support him, but some ministers came forward to echo Kong Rong's proposal, "Your Majesty! I also think that the Taiwei is loyal to His Majesty and has made great achievements in battle! Being the prime minister, it is a real challenge." It deserves its name!"

The appearance of this brother was like opening Pandora's box, causing more and more people to stand up.

"The minister seconded the proposal! Today, the world is in turmoil, bandits and bandits are rampant, and the princes are rising together.

Your Majesty and the big man just need a minister like the Taiwei who can rule the world to help this building that is about to collapse! "

"My minister agrees!"

"The minister also agrees!"

There are more and more people who stand up, and the frequency is getting faster and faster.

In the end, more than half of the people in the entire court stood up and expressed their approval of Kong Rong's proposal.

Liu Xie's chest was filled with anger, but he could only endure it, so that his body began to tremble slightly.

"Where's Dong Cheng? Where's Yang Biao?" Liu Xie looked around, but he didn't see any of them.
It seems that this matter cannot be improved today.

Facing the turbulent ministers alone, Liu Xie felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

"This is to drive away the hungry wolves, and the fierce tigers are coming again! Cao Cao's power has penetrated to such a point. It's sad, it's a pity!"

After a long time, Liu Xie finally chose to compromise in the isolated and helpless situation.What if you don't compromise, turn your face?Apart from the possibility of dying more happily, there is probably no other benefit.

Casting a glance at Cao Cao, who was standing at the head of the civil servants, closing his eyes and meditating as if everything that happened had nothing to do with him, Liu Xie finally said: "According to Kong Aiqing's suggestion, Taiwei Cao Cao was made prime minister and bestowed upon him as county marquis!"

The emperor finally compromised, and all the ministers who secretly voted or were planning to vote for Cao Cao breathed a sigh of relief, "Your Majesty is wise!"

prime minister!Cao Cao finally obtained the absolute power above the court, and stood in the position where one person is below one person and above ten thousand!

Now that the emperor compromised, Cao Cao didn't want to make people feel too uncomfortable, not to mention that the person sitting on it was still the emperor, so he had to worry about his face.

So Cao Cao finally opened his eyes, stood up and cupped his hands and said, "I thank you, Your Majesty, for your gift!"

Liu Xie lowered his head slightly, waved his hands and said, "I'm a little tired."

Now he really doesn't want to see Lao Cao's hateful face again.

But Cao Cao didn't care at all, he still maintained a perfect posture, and said loudly:

"Your Majesty! I heard yesterday that Henan Yin's vitality is gradually recovering under Sima Lang's governance. I think that in the spring of next year, we may be able to recruit civilians to rebuild Luoyang City!"

Liu Xie's dull eyes suddenly widened!He suddenly raised his head to stare at Cao Cao, his lips trembling with excitement, and said, "Mrs. Cao, Prime Minister Cao, are you serious?"

"Seriously!" Cao Cao's tone was extremely firm.

The resentment in Liu Xie's heart dissipated immediately, and he happily said to Cao Cao: Good!All matters here are decided by the prime minister! "

Cao Cao looked solemn, bowed respectfully and said, "Here!"

Liu Xie has a very deep obsession with Luoyang, otherwise he wouldn't go straight to Luoyang, which has become ruins, without going anywhere after escaping from Chang'an.

Cao Cao won the position of prime minister. In order to comfort Liu Xie, he took the initiative to rebuild Luoyang to calm his resentment or fear in his heart.

The final result can be said to be a happy one.

The ministers were very pleased with Cao Cao's actions,
If Cao Cao kept pressing the emperor blindly, people's nature to sympathize with the weak might make some ministers stand up and help the emperor stand on the platform.

At that time, there will inevitably be some friction or even conflict. No matter who wins or loses, the faces of both sides will definitely be ugly.

But Cao Cao accepted it as soon as he saw it, and used the reconstruction of Luoyang to appease the emperor's grievances. Such a method couldn't help but amazed the ministers.

In the mansion of General Hussars,

Lu Yanzheng was chatting with Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, talking about the big and small events that Xuzhou and Shouchun had experienced.

Xia Houlan suddenly rushed over and told them the news that Cao Cao was named prime minister and Cao Cao promised to rebuild Luoyang City.

Guo Jia listened, and immediately said with emotion: "My lord, this method combines hardness and softness! Wonderful! Wonderful!"

Xi Zhicai held his beard and smiled, and Lu Yan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Slap a sweet date, I didn't expect Lao Cao's methods to become so smooth now!"

"Cao seems to have heard someone speak ill of him behind his back!"

"Ah! My lord!"

"I have seen the lord!"

"I really mean Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here!"

 Thanks to [7788 Bar] for the big reward!

  Thanks to [Hanhan] [Dust] for the reward!

  By the way, ask for a monthly pass!grateful!
