Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

The next day, in the front hall of Weiyang Palace.

With all the ministers gathered here, today's court meeting officially began.

Although Liu Xie is the emperor, in general, he lacks the majesty of the emperor.

In contrast, Cao Cao, who is full of spring breeze, is even more imposing, suppressing the majesty of the emperor.

After everyone worshiped, Liu Xie looked at Lao Cao first, and said slowly: "The prime minister defeated Xuzhou and returned after defeating Yuan Shu. I have a prime minister, and the Han Dynasty can be stable. For this, I will reward you a lot!"

Cao Cao raised his head, bowed his hands, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Liu Xie's so-called rewards were nothing more than gold and silver, and Cao Cao didn't take it seriously.

"In addition, I also heard that the prime minister brought back one person this time. Liu Bei, whose name is Xuande, is a descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, a clan member of the Han family, and a great hero. I have admired him for a long time. Could the prime minister invite me to meet him? "In Liu Xie's words, there was joy that could not be concealed.

They met yesterday, but Liu Xie still acted as if he really wanted to see Liu Bei.

"Of course you can. This morning, the minister has brought Xuande, and he is in front of the palace. Tell Xuande to come in!"

Cao Cao already knew that Liu Huihui was like this, but he smiled coldly in his heart.

Today he wants Liu Bei to fall from heaven to hell, never to be reborn, and he can also warn the emperor.

After hearing Cao Cao's words, a servant walked out of the front hall, and he came back soon.

Liu Bei followed behind the servant, bowed his head respectfully, finally stood by Cao Cao's side, bowed, and said loudly, "Mr. Liu Bei, see Your Majesty!"

"it is good!"

The more Liu Xie looked at Liu Bei, the more he liked him, and he said with a smile, "Xuan De has an extraordinary bearing, he really is a hero!"

Liu Bei bowed again, and continued: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment!"

"I also heard that the prime minister asked to check the genealogy to verify my relationship with Xuande, right?" Liu Xie looked at Cao Cao and asked.

"That's right!"

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Prince Jing of Zhongshan has many heirs, and it has been passed down for ten generations. Xuande was brought back to Xudu by a minister. Therefore, the minister has to be responsible for the royal blood and wants to verify his identity. .”

After listening to Cao Cao's words, Liu Bei felt uneasy again.

"He really wants to help me?"

Liu Bei couldn't help thinking, and soon, he thought about what happened to Chen Yang.

Normally speaking, Liu Bei thought that Cao Cao should avenge Chen Yang, and tried every means to kill himself.

This time when he came to Xudu, although he was also planning to recognize his relatives with Liu Xie, from his plan, the way of recognizing relatives was definitely not facilitated by Cao Cao.

What happened at this time was different from his plan.

"Could it be that Cao Cao is doing this, is there any conspiracy?"

For a while, various thoughts emerged in Liu Bei's mind, and he said in his heart: "I must have Han blood, and the genealogy has been stored in the palace. It should be impossible to falsify. As long as I can prove that I am the emperor's uncle, Cao Cao can't do anything to me. Sample."

Since he couldn't figure out Cao Cao's thoughts, Liu Bei didn't think about it at all, and waited for the genealogy to verify his identity. As for other doubts, he would ask Cao Cao later.

"What the prime minister said is right!"

Liu Xie said in agreement: "Come on, go to the Taimiao immediately, and please show the genealogy of the Han family. I want to verify Xuande's identity."

After hearing the emperor's order, the servants immediately went to the Taimiao where the genealogy was stored.

Liu Bei was waiting for this moment, and now that everything is going well, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that he has no way out, no matter what tricks Cao Cao has, he can only wait for the final result.

On the high platform, Liu Xie and Liu Bei exchanged glances.

Liu Bei could see the excitement in Liu Xie's eyes, and he smiled slightly.

How could they hide from Cao Cao's eyes with such flirtatious eyebrows?

Cao Cao knew that Liu Xie had met Liu Bei, but he believed that the two would not be happy for long.

"Your Majesty, before the genealogy has arrived, I would like to ask Your Majesty, if the identity of the Xuande royal family is confirmed, what position is Your Majesty going to appoint?"

Cao Cao's words interrupted the various thoughts of the two of them.

Liu Xie didn't expect Cao Cao to take the initiative to mention this. He thought for a while, and said seriously: "The world is in chaos, and the family and country are in trouble. I have a deep understanding!"

"Over the years, the number of royal family members who have been scattered outside has become less and less. It is rare to find the great hero Xuande. I originally wanted to keep him in Xudu and rule the world with me."

"However, outside of Xudu, many princes are rebellious. Xuande is a great hero with benevolence and righteousness all over the world. It would be overkill to stay in Xudu."

"Therefore, I was thinking that the prime minister had just broken Xuzhou, and Tao Qian, the former shepherd of Xuzhou, also appreciated Xuande's ability and handed Xuzhou over. I have already planned to appoint Xuande as Xuzhou shepherd."

"First, you can share my worries, and second, with Xuande's benevolence and prestige, you can deter the princes."

After finishing speaking, Liu Xie did not forget to add a sentence: "I don't know what the prime minister thinks?"

Then, he looked at Cao Cao worriedly.

This is the result of their discussion yesterday, but the worry is that Cao Cao will disagree, so Liu Xie has nothing to do.

"How to award the reward is His Majesty's decision, how dare I have any objection?"

Cao Cao shook his head slightly, as if he didn't take this matter to heart.

Liu Xie felt relieved, saying that it was a success, and their plan took the first step smoothly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Liu Bei shouted: "I will definitely live up to the expectations of your majesty and the prime minister, help the Han Dynasty, and calm the world!"

"it is good!"

Liu Xie laughed.

"Your Majesty, the genealogy is here!"

A servant hurriedly walked into the front hall, holding a yellow cloth in both hands respectfully, standing in front of Liu Xie.

"Uncle Guo, come and read!"

"Yes!"

Dong Cheng took over the genealogy and slowly unfolded it.

He has seen the genealogy of the Han Dynasty several times and is very familiar with it.

After opening it, Dong Cheng paused slightly, and read it.

"Emperor Jing has fourteen sons, the seventh son is Liu Sheng, and he is named Prince Jing of Zhongshan."

"Liu Sheng's fifth son is Liu Zhen, Marquis of Lucheng, who gave birth to Liu Ang, Marquis of Peicheng, and Liu Ang was born..."

"Liu Hui gave birth to Liu Xiong, Fan Ling of Dongjun, and Liu Xiong gave birth to..."

After reading this, Dong Cheng's voice suddenly paused, and then his eyes widened, looking at the genealogy in disbelief.

This is impossible!

It was not the first time for Dong Cheng to read the genealogy of the Han Dynasty, but what he saw this time was quite different from what he had seen before.

For a while, Dong Cheng didn't know whether he should continue reading or not.

Above the front hall, all the officials and ministers looked at Dong Cheng with anticipation.

Dong Cheng also noticed Cao Cao's glance and the complacent expression on Cao Cao's face, and his heart tightened.

"It must have been tampered with by Cao Cao!"

Dong Cheng came to his senses, and soon he became a little nervous.

If you read it any further, Liu Bei will become a fake Han clan.

Dong Cheng's plan to use Liu Bei to accomplish things was in vain.

More importantly, Dong Cheng still had the feeling of being targeted by Cao Cao.

He suddenly remembered that the person who invited Liu Bei to enter the palace yesterday was Dong Cheng. He was thinking in his heart, wouldn't Cao Cao think that Liu Bei and I had a special relationship?

If this is the case, then after Liu Bei is unlucky, the next person who will be unlucky may be him.

"Uncle Guo, why did you stop? Keep reading!"

Liu Xie asked impatiently.

"Uncle Guo, Liu Xiong gave birth to Liu Hong, and Liu Hong gave birth to Liu Bei, isn't that so?"

Liu Bei, who had been waiting impatiently, simply read it out by himself, regardless of what Dong Cheng said.
