Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 545
Came to the imperial mausoleum.

The state funeral has also begun.

Cao Cao and his group stood at the front, including those veteran officials, while the rest of the people who came to the state funeral stood at the back.

A prayer was read by a special master of ceremonies.

Liu Qi, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan also watched quietly, not paying attention to these things, as if the things here had nothing to do with them.

In fact, it really has nothing to do with them.

I only came here after accepting Cao Cao's invitation, otherwise, I wouldn't have come to Chang'an, maybe I would have come to Chang'an in a different way.

They are just a bystander now.

As for the purpose of coming to Chang'an, that is to know why Cao Cao invited them to come here.

As time passed by little by little.

The state funeral is also coming to an end.

Xi Zhicai also came in front of Liu Qi and the other three.

"I have seen the three princes, my Lord invites the three princes to meet after the state funeral!" Xi Zhicai said.

coming.

Liu Qi, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan looked at each other.

They also knew what they came to Chang'an for this time. Participating in the state funeral was just an explanation for the outside world, but the real thing was Cao Cao's invitation.

"Where?" Liu Qi said with his eyes fixed.

Liu Bei and Sun Quan also looked at Xi Zhicai, and this was what they were concerned about.

"There!" Xi Zhicai pointed to a pavilion not far from the imperial mausoleum, and said, "Only my lord and the three princes, the rest are waiting 300 meters away!"

Liu Qi also looked in the direction Xi Zhicai pointed at, glanced at the surrounding situation, and then said: "Yes!"

at the same time.

Liu Bei and Sun Quan also looked in the direction Xi Zhicai pointed. ,

A different kind of light flashed in his eyes, and after a moment of contemplation, he finally agreed. After all, they came to Chang'an only at the invitation of Cao Cao.

Moreover, it was expected that Cao Cao would meet with them.

What's more, Xi Zhicai also said that when the time comes, all of them will be 300 meters away, and there will be no great danger if there are only the four of them.

Cao Cao is not afraid, and they have nothing to fear.

There is also a clear view of the gazebo, and there will be no such thing as laying down three hundred knives and axes.

With the consent of Liu Qi, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan.

Xi Zhicai also bowed his hands and saluted, then left and went back to report to Cao Cao.

soon.

The state funeral is also over.

Many people also left the imperial mausoleum one after another, and rushed back to Chang'an City, after all, there was nothing left for them.

The last to stay in the imperial mausoleum.

That is Liu Qi, Liu Bei, Sun Quan and others.

And Cao Cao also stayed. Apart from the thousands of soldiers guarding the imperial tomb, there were also hundreds of soldiers left behind, led by Xu Zhu, Xia Houyuan, and Xi Zhicai.

Watching Cao Cao go towards the pavilion.

Liu Qi, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan also looked at each other, and headed towards the pavilion with their respective soldiers and horses.

Wait until there are hundreds of meters away from the gazebo.

Whether it was Cao Cao, Liu Qi or the other three, they also stopped their soldiers and horses, and rode alone towards the pavilion.

The soldiers and horses in the four directions also stared at each other vigilantly, preventing the other party from suddenly violently rising.

They all hold their weapons tightly, and if something happens, they can immediately enter the battle, and there is also a certain distance between the four sides.

As for the situation of their respective soldiers.

Liu Qi, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan also ignored them, and slowly approached the pavilion.

from time to time.

Then came to the gazebo.

I see.

There are four tables in the gazebo, each occupying a direction, not far apart, and there are also wine and food on the table.

"Everyone, please!"

As the host, Cao Cao, also on horseback, smiled and made a gesture of invitation to Liu Qi and the other three.

"The guests are welcome, please!" Liu Qi also smiled.

Liu Bei and Sun Quan didn't know what Cao Cao wanted to do, but they didn't refuse. They also nodded and agreed.

The four of them didn't continue talking.

They got off their horses one after another, walked towards the gazebo, and stood beside a case.

"Please!"

The four were talking at the same time.

I just sat down. ,

"I think you are already a little hungry, how about eating and talking?" Cao Cao said to the crowd.

"So good!"

Liu Qi also smiled, without being pretentious, with a relaxed expression, picked up the flagon on the desk, and poured himself a glass of wine, as if he was not worried at all.

However, Liu Bei and Sun Quan were not so relaxed, and their eyes were still vigilant, but they did not refuse.

Looking at the different expressions of Liu Qi and the other three.

Cao Cao also had a flash of light in his eyes, smiled, but didn't say much, poured himself a glass of wine, held it up, and said: "Since I became king, this is also the first time we get together, this glass of wine , I respect you all!"

heard.

Liu Qi's eyes flashed, and he also raised his wine glass, signaling to Cao Cao.

Also as Cao Cao said.

This time, it was the first time they got together.

Among the four of them, Sun Quan was the youngest, and it was the first time he appeared in front of them with equal status.

After all, except for Sun Quan.

The three of them have also met each other, have intersected, and are relatively familiar with each other, but they have gradually not met each other.

When Liu Qi was thinking about something.

"Wei Wang, if you have something to say, just tell me, otherwise I will taste nothing!" Liu Bei said directly without any intention of pouring wine.

same.

Sun Quan did the same, looking at Cao Cao.

Hear Liu Bei's words.

Ha ha
Cao Cao didn't show anything, just smiled and looked at Liu Qi.

Liu Qi didn't speak, but drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, turned the glass upside down, gestured for a moment, and then put it back on the desk.

Immediately, he picked up the jug again and poured another glass of wine.

See here.

Cao Cao's eyes froze, he also drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then said: "The King of Han is not afraid that I will poison the wine?"

If there is something in the words.

Liu Bei and Sun Quan's expressions also changed. They obviously ignored Cao Cao's toast just now. On the one hand, they didn't know what Cao Cao was up to, and on the other hand, they were also afraid that Cao Cao might poison the wine. People can't be changed.

Liu Qi didn't know what Cao Cao wanted to say, so he took a bite of the food, and then smiled lightly and said, "If the King of Wei really wanted to, he would have done it last night, right? Why bother, and ask for trouble!"

"Haha, the king of Han still understands me!" Cao Cao laughed.

It is indeed possible to poison Liu Qi, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan here, but it will also cause a bad name.

And if he was infamous, he would have already done it last night when those old ministers went out to look for Liu Qi and Liu Bei, so why wait until now.

After all, they all have to bear the infamy, so why pay attention to time.
