Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 685

"Ziyu, don't you know? It has been spread all over Chengdu, and Cao Pi killed the king and seized the throne." Zhang Fei was full of curiosity, and said to himself, aren't you good at intelligence?
Zhuge Liang had to add: "There are rumors all over Central Shu that the Emperor Dao was killed in Xudu, and the king had already mourned him a few days ago, and he was posthumously named Emperor Xiaomin."

"Recently, officials from all over the world are vying to offer blessings, and they all persuade Gu Ji to honor the ancestral temple of the Han family. Of course, there are also some courtiers who advise not to do so for the time being." Liu Bei's expression was quite dignified.

Lan Tian knew that this person must be Fei Shi, because it was recorded in the history books that he was the emissary sent by Liu Bei to Jingzhou when he proclaimed the king of Hanzhong. The former Sima, who was sure to get a promotion, was able to withstand the pressure and persuade him impartially. Lan Tian admired this retrograde spirit.

"Fei Gongju (Fei Shi) doesn't know good and bad. Now that the emperor of Han has passed away, the elder brother is the head of the emperor's family. He deserves to be the successor. He is talking nonsense in the court. It is better to transfer him away from Shu County. Go to the frontier." Zhang Fei was angrily.

"Why didn't Ziyu say anything?" Liu Bei was puzzled.

From Zhang Fei's tone just now, it seems that Liu Bei has not relegated Fei Shi yet. The King of Hanzhong in this plane has a much better mentality than the one in history.

"What does the unknown king mean?" Lan Tian asked meaningfully.

Liu Bei shook his head and replied: "The officials are all trying to persuade you to come in, but there are some people who disagree. Bei really can't make up his mind. Since Ziyu happened to come to Chengdu, he has to help Gu settle down."

Lan Tian was taken aback when he heard that, isn't that why he asked me to enter Sichuan?Could it be that there are other important things that can't be done, so he asked curiously: "Isn't it because the king called me to Chengdu to discuss the matter of becoming emperor?"

Liu Bei shook his head and smiled wryly: "It was the Queen who asked Gu to summon you to Sichuan. The news of Cao Pi's regicide was received only after Uncle Ji left, so it is very coincidental. , Gu still remembers it fresh, I don't know what advice I have now?"

Lan Tian stroked his beard and thought for a while, then replied: "What I mean is that the king can proclaim himself emperor at this time, but he can also take it easy."

"Huh? Did I hear you wrong? Ziyu said that, but he didn't seem to say it." Zhang Fei scratched his head in doubt.

"Third Brother, don't interrupt. Ziyu is a brilliant man, so he must have his own ideas. Please solve the mystery for me." Liu Bei frowned. When he asked Zhuge Liang before, the other party was also ambiguous. So, he had to break the casserole and ask the end.

Lan Tian smiled and replied: "Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor on behalf of the Han Dynasty. It is rumored in Shu that the emperor was killed, and the king also gave him a posthumous posthumous honor. This is understandable, but if the emperor is still in the world, what can we do?"

"What's there to say? When the time comes, it's all done. My elder brother ascends the throne and becomes emperor. I don't believe that Liu Xie dares to take the throne." Zhang Fei clenched his fists.

Lan Tian shook his head and said: "Liu Xie was originally a puppet of the Cao family, and the Han family has long existed in name only, but if Liu Xie survived, it would be easy to be criticized if he proclaimed himself emperor rashly. The three words are useless, if you can’t win the Central Plains in a short time, then it’s the same as proclaiming the emperor early or later, and it’s just a continuation of the Han family’s ancestral temple in a corner.”

"Bei is determined to help the Han Dynasty. The situation in the world is good now. It is only a matter of time before he wins the Central Plains. What does Ziyu mean to delay?" Liu Bei frowned.

"The king is only one step away from the prince. If you can capture Chang'an or Luoyang, then you can win the title of honor at that time, and the people of the world will definitely be convinced. However, it is okay for the king to be emperor at this time, but in the eyes of historians The lack of legal principles makes it easy to be criticized by future generations, no matter what decision my brother-in-law makes, I will fully support it." Lan Tian clasped his fists sonorously.

"Me too." Zhang Fei instinctively clasped his fists and stood up. When he heard Lan Tian's heroic assurance, he couldn't help getting up and agreeing.

"Prime Minister, what do you think?" Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang with a smile. ,

"As long as you recuperate for a few years and Yizhou and Jingzhou have sufficient reserves of money and food, then the Northern Expedition will surely be unfavorable. Proclaiming the emperor in the old capital can better demonstrate the fate of destiny. However, the timing of proclaiming the emperor is not bad now, and the emperor is very likely to be killed. , I agree with Ziyu's point of view, sooner or later you have to ask the king to decide."

Zhuge Liang didn't dare to say it clearly at first, because Fei Shi was a lesson learned from the past. Although he has not been relegated and moved to an official position, Liu Bei no longer pays attention to him. Choose, because Liu Bei's proclaiming the emperor has little effect on the officials under his command, but it will plant a stain on Liu Bei's final succession to the great rule.

"Then take it easy and find out the life and death of the emperor before we talk about it." Liu Bei made up his mind with a serious face, and then told Zhuge Liang: "There are many courtiers in the court who come to persuade them to come in every day. Prime Minister, please comfort them first. Do you still remember?" Ziyu said a word, which is very appropriate now."

"What are you talking about?" Zhang Fei's face was full of question marks.

"It's never too late for a good meal." Liu Bei nodded slightly.

"Succinct and concise, this is indeed the truth." Zhuge Liang looked at Lan Tian in agreement.

Lan Tian responded with a smile: "I can't guarantee the rest. I have no doubts about the fact that the king regained the Central Plains and set the world."

"Ziyu's words have never been inaccurate, and Gu also believes that there will be such a day." Liu Bei lightly hammered the hammer on the stone table.

"Don't worry, my lord. I don't think that day will be too long. When the world is settled and China is unified, I will accompany you to Mount Tai to pay respects to the world." Lan Tian's expression was solemn.

"Go, go, I'll go too." Zhang Fei cheerfully agreed.

Zhuge Liang was obviously taken aback when he heard this. Before that, there were only three people who conferred Zen on Mount Tai, namely Qin Shihuang Yingzheng, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty Liu Che, and Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu of the Han Dynasty. high.

Liu Bei swallowed his saliva secretly, and asked tentatively: "The conferment of Zen on Mount Tai is no small matter. An emperor without great merit will be ridiculed by the world. Is Ziyu joking?"

"Emperor Wu created the prosperity of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu rejuvenated the Han Dynasty, the king turned the tide when the Han Dynasty was in turmoil, and helped the collapsed building to be in danger. If the king thinks that this achievement is not enough, how about conquering the four barbarians completely and creating a prosperous age for all nations to come to court? ?” Lan Tian showed a row of white teeth.

"It makes my blood boil, Ziyu, you have to keep your word." Zhang Fei muttered.

Lan Tian's mouth was like a river, and Liu Bei felt far away when he heard it, but he still smiled and said: "Ziyu's mouth is really good, no wonder he can take the lead in negotiating with Jiangdong. Ziyu is in good health and is in the prime of life. Gu believes that it will count as his birthday Even if you don’t see that day, you can still climb Mount Tai with Adou.”
