Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 767
The matter of court meeting went extremely smoothly.

The various arrangements Liu Xi had made to guard against the Sangong were ineffective in the end, including the generals of the southern army, and the Sangong's quick concession was something Liu Xi had never thought of. After that, he agreed to Zhuge Liang's performance, which made Zhuge Liang very astonished. He didn't expect that he wasted nearly half an hour of talking, but he was not as good as a strong bow in Lu Bu's hand.

Of course, Liu Xi is still very happy. After all, there are no major twists and turns. I don't want to be too harsh, and I don't want to kill. The matter can be resolved in this way, but one person died, which is acceptable.

As long as there is no change, it has never been heard that there is no bloodshed.

Since there was no voice of refutation, Zhuge Liang easily gave up the right to speak to Xun Yu, and Xun Yu began to explain the new system in detail, and the officials listened carefully. They also found a way out, and the court meeting continued for more than an hour before it ended. San Gong and Xun Yu were kept by the emperor, and the rest left.

Houde Hall

Liu Xi was sitting in the Hall of Houde, San Gong and Xun Yu sat in front of the emperor calmly, without any fear at all, which was quite different from the other officials, Liu Xi smiled lightly and said: "This big Thanks to the support of Sangong, otherwise, it would not be able to achieve such an effect, especially Cao Gong, who is tired, if it is not for you, I am afraid that this big strategy will not be completed!"

Liu Xi was smiling, Cao Cao raised his head, looked at the emperor in front of him, couldn't help laughing, and said: "Your Majesty, this is the duty of a minister, and there is no need to do so."

Liu Bei on the side was also smiling, but he had already scolded in his heart. Sure enough, the emperor had already negotiated with Cao Cao, and they made it together. Before summoning himself, it was convenient for Cao Cao to formulate these things. Then, the emperor looked at Liu Bei and said, "Today, Sikong is also helping him with all his strength regardless of personal gains and losses. It is really rare!"

"Your Majesty, don't dare to do this. This is also the duty of a minister." Liu Bei hurriedly replied.

"Mr. Taiwei, the matter of Meng Aiqing, alas, I never thought it would be like this. His wife, I will send someone to take care of it. In addition, I will ask Zhi Jinwu to pay compensation, and I will go to worship in person. Please don't blame the Taiwei!" Liu Xi said helplessly, but Sun Jian shook his head and said, "I have persuaded him, it's a pity, it's a pity."

The three chatted for a while, and then Liu Xi looked at Xun Yu and said, "Mr. Xun, why have I never heard of the method of subdividing places you mentioned just now?"

Xun Yu said slowly: "This is what I just thought of. The division of states and counties will cause some confusion in a short period of time, but it will definitely be beneficial in the long run."

Liu Xi nodded, "Indeed, Mr. Xun is beneficial. Fortunately, you are here. I don't have to worry about it." Xun Yu didn't even dare to say that. You will have to trouble the king for reforming the system, and you can make arrangements for the talented people in the court at will, and the formulation will be completed earlier, as for the local affairs, I will make my own arrangements!"

"My promise!", Xun Yu bowed to the emperor.

Liu Xi asked Xun Yu to go back to rest earlier, and then he looked at San Gong in front of him.

If the system is to be restructured, the Sangong will naturally lose all his current power and must be rearranged. However, Liu Xi's reorganization, in addition to ending the chaos of the official system in the temple, the most important thing is to reduce the influence of the Sangong in the temple. To reduce the status of the Sangong, if these three people continue to serve as the Order of the Three Taiwans, what is the difference from not changing it?

But they can't just let them go home like this, whether it's their talents or qualifications, they haven't had the time to go home and rest.

Liu Xi was thinking in his heart, looked at Situ Cao Cao, and said: "Mr. Cao, I don't intend to remove the three masters directly. After all, the three have been big men all their lives. I trust them very much and I don't want to do that. Therefore, I decided to leave the position of Sangong, and as long as you are safe and healthy, Sangong will exist for a day!" Hearing Liu Xi's words, the three of them hurriedly thanked him.

"Cao Situ, I hope you can do one thing for me."

"Oh? What orders does His Majesty have?"

"Please Mr. Cao to help me plan the opening of the Dahan Canal. It must be comprehensive and cover the whole world. Including Guishuang." Liu Xi looked at him seriously and said: "When the national power is strong, I will let Mr. Situ handle this matter personally. , to complete this great cause through the ages!!" Hearing Liu Xi's words, Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and he asked with a smile, "Any plan is fine?"

"Naturally, it is necessary to plan in the most comprehensive and magnificent direction. When the canal is completed, I will name it Caogong Canal."

"Hahaha!! Good!! Great good!!"

"I will do my best!" Cao Cao bowed to the emperor, he knew clearly that the day when the canal was built, he probably couldn't look forward to it, but ah, it's good to be able to plan for the future, in disguise, It can be considered that I, Cao Mengde, have completed this eternal thing.

Liu Xi then looked at Liu Bei. Liu Bei already understood that the emperor would not continue to appoint them in the temple. , it was only started, is it going to be withdrawn?This made him feel extremely uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do. After all, he was just a minister, no matter what the edict was, he could only obey it.

Liu Xi seemed to see his doubts, and said with a smile: "Sikong, you can't leave the temple. You were the one who proposed the ten-year policy. You can't be without you. You are in the temple, teaching those Young man, how about continuing to implement the policy for ten years?" Liu Bei raised his head and was overjoyed in his heart. He thought that he would also be sent out like Cao Cao, but he didn't think that the emperor would continue to let him stay in the temple.

"I'm old, I'm afraid I'll disappoint His Majesty's expectations."

"Hahaha, Sikong doesn't need to be humble!"

In the end, it was Sun Jian's turn. Sun Jian knew in his heart that the Taiwei's mansion would be replaced by the so-called military mansion, and he was afraid that he could do nothing. I gave it to Sun Jian, and said seriously: "Mr. Taiwei, this is the map of Guishuang. It records various internal and external situations in detail, including the analysis of the enemy and ourselves. I hope that Mr. Taiwei can formulate a general plan for attacking Guishuang. "

"Okay!" Sun Jian couldn't help shouting, almost jumped up, the displeasure just now was swept away, and the whole person seemed to be alive again.

Seeing the three of them like this, Liu Xi breathed a sigh of relief. He held the three of them to exchange pleasantries for a long time, and Liu Xi asked, "I heard that there is a porridge shop in the east of the city. When will you take me there to eat?"

"Hey, His Majesty can't go there."

"Oh? Why?"

"When I go there, I have always asked others to pay. I have never brought money!! If your majesty goes down, then I can only pay for it!"

"Hahaha!!"

The three walked out of the palace happily and ended the meeting.

After walking out of the palace, Sun Jian couldn't wait to bid farewell to Cao Cao and Liu Bei. He still wanted to go back to study the map. Conquering Guishuang, this was a thought he would never forget. He left here in a hurry, leaving only After getting off Cao Cao and Liu Bei, shaking their heads, they walked towards the carriage unhurriedly. On the way, Cao Cao asked with a smile, "How are you doing? Are you going to finish your porridge?"

There was no smile on Liu Bei's face. He looked at Cao Cao solemnly and asked, "Mr. Cao, you already knew what happened today?"

Cao Cao was taken aback, stroked his beard, and asked, "I said I just found out today, would you believe me?"

"If it's what Cao Gong said, I will naturally believe it."

"Well, I just found out today."

"So that's it." Liu Bei nodded, and then said: "Mr. Cao, I still have some things to do in my house, so let's go ahead!" As he said, he left without looking back, watching Liu Bei go away. Looking back, Cao Cao shook his head helplessly. He knew that Liu Bei would not believe it, and that some of the connections that had been made with great difficulty might be cut off in the future.

Not long ago, Cao Cao actually noticed something was wrong, but he didn't care. Today is not a foolish king, and he will never do anything stupid, so he behaved calmly, without the slightest bit in his heart. Today, he just learned the whole story, and what he said just now is really the truth.

However, what the emperor said in the Hall of Houde directly made Cao Cao a scapegoat for conspiring with the emperor in advance. The words of the emperor are not small. Success can also be understood as Cao Cao conspiring in advance and participating in this matter, and Cao Cao, as a party involved, can't say anything else about the emperor's praise, but can only thank him.

Cao Cao laughed again. Facing the emperor's methods, he didn't dislike them. On the contrary, he had a kind of sincere appreciation. Before ascending the throne, this emperor was a well-known virtuous prince. After ascending the throne, he reused talents from all walks of life, selected talents and talents, and listened to advice. It must be said that he is a Mingjun.

However, Cao Cao has long seen that this emperor is not as weak as he has shown. When he was still the prince, Cao Cao has already seen that he deliberately created some things to improve his reputation, and even Constantly getting close to many ministers and establishing his own invisible power, such actions are definitely not something a weak prince can do.

Sure enough, not long after he ascended the throne, he gradually showed his fangs, dismissed all the original ministers, and replaced them with his confidantes.

Afterwards, through the reason of Emperor Xiaokang's death, San Gong's followers were dismissed and San Gong was isolated.

Through a ten-year strategy, manpower was placed in the local area in advance, the Southern Army was recalled, and the system was quickly reformed. I am afraid that this reform was not Zhuge Liang or Xun Yu at the beginning, but someone else. spoken.

Up to now, every move, every word and deed, are used to using all kinds of small tricks, people can't see it at all, can't detect it, wonderful, wonderful, just a few words, let Liu Bei feel angry with himself, I'm afraid that I will never be close to myself again.

Cao Cao thought to himself, so many ideas of the emperor coincided with his own, hahaha, he is really the confidant of the emperor!
