Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Chapter 349: Brother, you have been promoted, why are you still depressed?

How could Queen Mother He, who was as young as a wolf and a tiger, withstand such provocation? If it hadn't been for this in broad daylight, she would have knocked Cao Ang down directly.

"Little enemy, let's go and change places...feed the fish."

……

Half an hour later, Cao Ang came out of Queen Mother He's palace refreshed and went to find Liu Bian.

As for Queen Mother He, she was covered with a gauze and collapsed on the bed.

As for the abalone, it was naturally full. It even started to vomit out after being fed too much.

……

At this time, Liu Bian was reading in Weiyang Palace.

Although Liu Bian knew that with the help of the Cao family and his son, his throne would be secure.

But the Cao family and his son were so kind to him, and he didn't want to be a drag.

The Cao family and his son are Huo Guang, so is he Emperor Xuan?
Obviously not, he doesn't have that much extravagant hope, he just wants to be half as capable as Emperor Xuan.

For this reason, he also studied hard and consulted some veterans on how to handle government affairs.

When Liu Bian heard from the eunuch that Cao Ang was coming, he immediately put down the letter and went out to greet him in person.

"General Cao is here?"

Cao Ang couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw Liu Bian coming out of the palace to greet him.

After all, he had just come out from his mother's house, and this guy was still so polite to him, which really made Cao Ang feel a little guilty.

"Your Majesty, Cao Ang, has met with you."

Liu Bian reached out and took Cao Ang's hand, and the two walked into the hall together.

Afterwards, Liu Bianping stepped back and said to Cao Ang: "Brother Cao, this is what I call you when no one is around in private. Don't dislike it."

Cao Ang looked a little embarrassed when he heard this.

Liu Bian thought that Cao Ang was concerned about the etiquette between monarchs and ministers, so he tried to comfort him: "Brother Cao, you have saved me from fire and water many times. You deserve to be called big brother!"

"If it weren't for the opposition of the veterans in the court, I would have named you the king with a different surname!"

At this time, Liu Bian did not call himself "I" when he was alone with Cao Ang, in order to draw closer the relationship between himself and Cao Ang.

As for Cao Ang, he didn't like these red tapes in the first place. It didn't matter that the two of them treated each other as brothers in private.

It's just that Cao Ang feels that he has suffered a loss. Logically speaking, you should call me daddy.

Of course, Cao Ang did not dare to say this. After all, if this matter spread, the saliva of those old ministers would drown him.

Cao Ang looked at Liu Bian, smiled and shook his head: "Your Majesty is joking, this king with a different surname cannot be granted the title!"

"Brother Cao, why is this? You and Cao Sima have made such great contributions. Logically speaking, I can make you both kings!"

Liu Bian asked in confusion. It was obvious that his study was not up to standard and he did not understand the power struggle above the court.

I saw Cao Ang shaking his head: "The princes in the world all say that my father and I are holding the emperor hostage to control the princes. Sooner or later in the future, there will be a day when we usurp the throne and stand on our own feet."

"If Your Majesty, you can grant me or my father the title of king with a different surname again, then this matter will be completely confirmed. After all, Emperor Gaozu was not allowed to grant any more titles to the kings with a different surname after he had eradicated all the kings with a different surname." "This is a risk. Your Majesty, you cannot do anything that is outrageous in the world, and my father and I cannot accept it."

At this time, Cao Cao still regarded the revival of the Han Dynasty as his life goal.

If Cao Ang is granted the title of king with a different surname, Cao Cao may jump out and take the lead in attacking his own son.

Liu Bian was a bit cowardly in temperament under the supervision of Queen Mother He, but he was not stupid, especially since he was often reminded by Cao Cao and was influenced by Cao Ang's side. He also grew up a lot.

After Cao Ang's on-demand broadcast, he understood the pros and cons.

The matter of becoming a king sounds nice to say, but it is really difficult to actually do it.

After Liu Bian thought for a while, he smiled at Cao Ang: "Brother Cao, if I can live until the day when Esau conquers all the princes in the world, I will definitely wipe out all the opposition businesses in the world and make you king!"

Cao Ang smiled when he heard this: "What did your Majesty say? You will live a long life, and the day when we will wipe out all the princes in the world is not far away."

Liu Bian laughed when he heard this: "Okay, then I'll look forward to that day."

After saying this, Liu Bian started to talk about business: "By the way, Brother Cao, you came to me, do you have anything to say?"

Cao Ang nodded and started talking about business.

When Cao Ang expressed his intention to get Liu Bei to Langya to be the Prime Minister and Lu Bu to Xiapi to be the Prime Minister, Liu Bian was puzzled.

"Brother Cao, I can understand that you asked the emperor's uncle to go to Langya to be the prime minister. After all, he served as the county magistrate in Pingyuan County and also made some political achievements."

"But that Lu Bu... how can he be the prime minister of the Xiapi Kingdom?"

When Cao Ang heard this, he smiled and explained: "Your Majesty, Lu Bu has entered Xuzhou a long time ago and is stationed in Xiapi City. Whether he is granted the title of Prime Minister of Xiapi or not, it cannot change the fact that he has already mastered the actual control of Xiapi City. right."

"In this case, it is better to do a favor and make him the Prime Minister of Xiapi to show the court's goodwill."

"Of course, we can't let him have a stable position as the Prime Minister. I transferred Uncle Liu Huang to Langya to be the Prime Minister. I just hope that Uncle Liu Huang can contain Liu Bei."

"After all, Lu Bu's martial arts skills can only be matched by Guan and Zhang in the world today."

In fact, some of Cao Ang's own generals could be drawn to challenge Lu Bu, but there was no need to say that, after all, his purpose was to let Liu Bei go to Xuzhou.

After listening to Cao Ang's explanation, Liu Bian nodded, and then called for someone to draft the edict when they came.

In fact, even if Cao Ang didn't explain, Liu Bian would have someone draft an edict. But in this way, there might be a gap between the two.

……

A few days later, these two edicts were delivered to Liu Bei and Lu Bu respectively.

Liu Bei had long known that he would be promoted from Pingyuan County Magistrate to Langya as Prime Minister, so after receiving the edict, he was not so excited.

Zhang Fei, on the other hand, was very excited: "Dear me, I didn't expect what that boy Cao Ang said was true. My eldest brother is really going to Langya to serve as the Prime Minister!"

When Guan Yu heard this, he was also very happy for his eldest brother, but he didn't act so exaggeratedly.

When he saw that his eldest brother didn't seem very happy, he couldn't help but ask: "Brother, you have been promoted, why are you still unhappy?"

When Liu Bei heard this, he smiled bitterly: "After all, we have stayed in Pingyuan County for so long and have feelings for each other. But now we are leaving suddenly. I really can't bear to leave the people here."
