The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

"Weidi Shennong, the ancestor of Hua. Initiate civilization to dispel ignorance. Create Leisi, and the five grains will be abundant...."

"...Gaozu, a native of Zhongyangli, Peifeng City, surnamed Liu, styled Ji. His father was Taigong, and his mother was Liu Yu. Before him, Liu Yu tasted the embankment of Daze, and his dream met God. It was the time of thunder and lightning. , the Taigong looked at it, and saw the dragon on it. He was pregnant, so he gave birth to Gaozu..."

Liu Ke eloquently sprinkled thousands of words without any mistakes.

The sacrificial oration is also majestic and shocking.

Those present all praised Liu Ke's talent, and those who knew it were even more admirable.

Creating something out of nothing on a blank piece of paper is not something ordinary people can do.

While Liu Ke was praised, he also gained Cao Zhi's hatred.

Cao Zhi thought that if he was allowed to go, the effect would definitely be better, but all of this was destroyed by Dongyanghou.

Chapter Nine Hundred and Sixty IX: King Conferred Ceremony

People were surprised why the person who read the sacrificial rite became Marquis of Dongyang, but this did not prevent them from praising this genius born out of nowhere.

Liu Ke eloquently recited the whole text without any pause, as if he was really comparing the sacrificial text.

Only the people at the forefront knew clearly that there was not a single word in the so-called sacrificial oration.

What's even more commendable is that Liu Ke didn't make any slips of the tongue during the recitation process, and his voice was full of emotion and rhythm.

Even Cai Yong, who has the most demanding requirements for sacrifices, can't find any faults.

After the sacrificial ceremony was over, Hua Xin held up the imperial decree and began his performance.

"...The Marquis of Dongyang has worked hard and made great achievements, and he is now the King of Dongyang!"

Suddenly there was a burst of noise from the audience.

The Marquis of Dongyang is finally crowned king!

No, it should be called Dongyang King now.

Just when Liu Ke thought the matter would come to a successful conclusion, something unexpected happened.

Following the reminder of the title, Emperor Xian also gave many rewards.

One of them includes Jiuxi!

The problem arises here.

"Your Majesty has a reward, give it to Jiuxi!"

Hua Xin sneered indifferently, holding the imperial decree in his hand, waiting for Liu Ke to come forward to accept it.

"Jiuxi" is "Nine Gifts", which are nine kinds of ritual utensils bestowed by the emperor to his courtiers, representing the highest courtesy.

According to the ancient book "Book of Rites", these nine things are: chariots and horses, clothes, pottery, Zhuhu, Nabi, bow and arrow, axe, huben, and Lexian. They each have different meanings.

Chariots and horses refer to the carriages that the emperor rides, drawn by six horses, luxurious and majestic.

The Son of Heaven bestows chariots and horses to honor people with noble virtues.

The clothes are not ordinary clothes either, but refer to the clothes of the crown of the crown and the red scorpion.

Dagon crowns are the dresses and crowns worn by ancient emperors and ministers when they participated in major events, and Chixi are the shoes worn by the emperor and princes.

The emperor bestows clothes to commend those who can stabilize the people.

……

With Liu Ke's virtue, it is of course no problem to receive the gift of nine tins.

But when Jiuxi came to Wang Mang's period, his taste began to change.

When the powerful ministers change generations and seize the throne, they must first be crowned king, add Jiuxi, and then add dragon robes to ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

When Cao Cao became king, he was also given Jiuxi, but it did not cause a sensation at that time.

Because Cao Cao is a powerful minister!

But Liu Ke is different. He is a clan member of the Han Dynasty and does not control the court.

The ministers who have won Jiuxi not only have the decoration similar to the emperor, but also have the power similar to the emperor, and their status is equivalent to "deputy emperor".

Cao Cao watched this scene cheerfully, as long as Liu accepted it, it was as if he was saying to the world:

I am an ambitious person, you have to be careful!

Liu Bei claimed to be the king of Hanzhong, and Cao Cao justified his name, but he did not give Jiuxi.

Liu Bei knows, won't he be jealous?

Of course, Liu Ke doesn't have to accept the reward, but what about the King's Ceremony?

Made it so grand, and finally ended with the kindness of refusing to offer the emperor?

Here lies Cao Cao's insidious intentions.

"Dongyang King, accept the order!" Hua Xin smiled.

Liu Ke accepted the imperial decree generously, and cheers immediately erupted from under the altar.

The throne is secured!
