The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

Liu Ke led his troops to Yingchuan, participated in the battle of Changshe, and defended the gate of Luoyang.

After Yingchuan's Yellow Turban was wiped out, Liu Ke was summoned by Emperor Ling because of his meritorious service, and was revealed as a clan member of the declining Han family, and it was out of control.

Step by step towards the road to becoming a king!

While looking around, Liu Ke suddenly felt that someone was looking at him, so he turned his head and looked along the line of sight, only to find that an old man was looking at him beside Wei Wang Cao Cao who was watching the ceremony, and when Liu Ke noticed him, He smiled awkwardly at Liu Ke.

"Who is this person?" Liu Ke whispered to Cai Yong beside him.

Cai Yong was also embarrassed by this question.It stands to reason that on such a serious occasion, whispering is not allowed.

But Cai Yong still smiled slightly, and lowered his voice to introduce:

"This person is Shangshuling Huaxin, who is also the envoy responsible for proclaiming the decree. It's just that it's been a long time, and it's not time for him to appear on the stage, so I rest at the side."

Although Liu Ke has never met Hua Xin, he is no stranger to Hua Xin.

At the beginning, he was promoted to Yangzhou Mu, but the prefects of Yangzhou counties were not willing to obey his orders.

So Liu Ke did not stop doing two things, and carried out counter-insurgency, sweeping up the counties with the momentum of destruction.

Seeing that something was wrong, Hua Xin surrendered to Liu Ke's army.

It's a pity that Liu Ke had a lot of talents under his command, and the territory was not big at that time, so Hua Xin was appointed as the magistrate of a county.

It didn't take long for the proud Hua Xin to accept the call of the imperial court and leave Yangzhou. Afterwards, she was promoted continuously, and even replaced Xun Yu's position and became the minister of the book!

Not long ago, Hua Xin and Cai Yong clashed.

It seems that Hua Xin complained to Cao Cao, but Cao Cao didn't take it seriously, so he didn't fight back.

Just kidding, Cao Cao is in Yangzhou now, and it's too late to please Liu Ke, how dare he trouble Liu Ke for such a trivial matter?

In case Liu Ke saw that he was upset, he would be detained directly, and Cao Cao would not even have time to cry.

So Cao Cao suppressed the matter and told Hua Xin to turn a blind eye.

Although Hua Xin has a cold heart, he is also a veteran in the officialdom, and he knows Cao Cao's worries.

Without Cao Cao standing up for him, Liu Ke really didn't take him seriously as a minister.

However, this incident was recorded by someone with a heart, and this person is Cao Zhi.

If Cao Zhi chose to stand up for Hua Xin, wouldn't he be able to get his support?

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

On the high platform, the officials of the Ministry of Rites who assisted in the ceremony of conferring the king had already prepared sacrifices.

Under normal circumstances, there is no need for sacrifices to become a king.

But adding ancestor worship is different.

Liu is a clan member of the Han family, so he should tell Liu Bang if he is crowned king.

This is also one of Liu Bang's purposes for making his descendants kings, and that foreign surnames cannot be kings.

No matter who becomes the emperor in the end, Liu Bang is the ancestor, and everyone will worship him.

On such grand occasions, chickens and ducks are simply not classy animals.

I saw a pig, a cow, and a sheep in front of Liu Ke.They were all tied firmly with ropes, with brocade stuffed in their mouths, and they "kneeled" sacredly and solemnly in front of the sacrificial table.

On the extra-long sacrificial table, there were simple tributes, such as chicken, duck, goose, etc., as well as some exquisite vegetarian dishes, fruits, and pastries.

The most amazing sacrifice in the middle was a baby whale hunted by the Chishui Army!

Even the juvenile whales are extraordinarily large and shocking.

It means more than every year.

Of course, the baby whale is also called Kun in ancient books, and when it grows up, it will become a big roc, and it will travel thousands of miles.

Those priceless jade and gold wares also paled in front of "Kunpeng".

With a solemn expression on his face, Liu Ke stood in the center of the altar and bowed nine respectfully to the east.

After that, some officials began to slaughter the three animals.

Cai Yong walked over, respectfully took the internal organs of the three animals, and put them one by one into the lacquered wooden trays lined with red silk in the hands of several officials from the Ministry of Rites behind him.

The latter presented it on the sacrificial table.

……

A series of tedious steps made Liu Ke sleepy.

After waiting for Cai Yong to clean his hands, the drums and music rang again on the high platform.

This is to read the sacrificial oration aloud.

You know, this is a pretty big deal.

But Liu Ke hasn't heard the recitation for a long time!

This is very strange.

Liu Ke stared at Cai Yong from a distance, and he vaguely noticed that Cai Yong was holding the sacrificial letter in his hands, his face was flushed, and even his whole body was trembling slightly.
