Cao Cao's heart trembled slightly, and half of his anger suddenly disappeared.

As cruel as Dong Zhuo, he poisoned the young emperor after he was deposed.

If he killed the whole world in a fit of rage, wouldn't he become a rebellious minister and traitor who surpassed Dong Jiu and be despised by the people of the world?

Think about this.

Cao Cao took a deep breath, suppressed his murderous intention, and helped Liu Xie up from the dragon bed.

Liu Xie looked panicked and worried. He didn't know how Cao Cao would treat him next.

"Your Majesty, don't panic. Of course I know that you were bewitched by Dong Cheng's gang of traitors."

"I was rude just now, and I hope your majesty will forgive me."

Cao Cao patted Liu Xie on the shoulder, comforting Liu Xie as if comforting his own son.

Liu Xie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile:

"Sikong is the pillar of our Han Dynasty. I know that Sikong is loyal to the Han Dynasty. How can I blame Sikong for this little misunderstanding?"

Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction and pressed his hands on his shoulders:

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will definitely protect Your Majesty and will not let any traitors threaten Your Majesty again."

"It is difficult to tell whether the ministers of this dynasty are loyal or treacherous. It is best for Your Majesty not to meet them again to avoid being deceived by them. After saying that

, Cao Cao turned around and shouted to his nephew Cao Xiu:

"From today on, you will take over the palace guard. No one is allowed to approach the emperor without my permission. Do you understand?"

Cao Xiu accepted the order with enthusiasm.

Liu Xie shuddered and trembled.

Cao Cao said it nicely, but in fact he wanted to put him under house arrest completely and cut him off from any contact with the outside world.

From now on, he will truly He became a loner, trapped alone in this palace!

Thinking of that desolate and lonely scene, Liu Xie felt sad in his heart. 883

"What do you think of Your Majesty's arrangements for your ministers?"

Cao Cao pretended again, turned around and asked Liu Xie with his hands raised.

Liu Xie dared to express his dissatisfaction and nodded hurriedly:

"Sikong arranged it very well. Sikong was really loyal to me, which moved me very much."

Cao Cao stroked his short beard and sneered proudly at the corner of his mouth.

Then he turned around and walked away.

At this moment,

Xu Chu hurried over, holding a silk letter with a secret report in his hand, and his face was extremely solemn.

"Report to Sikong, urgent report from Xuzhou!"

"A few days ago, the big-eared thief announced in Xiapi that he had been enthroned as King of Yan by order of the Emperor!"

As soon as these words came out,

Cao Cao's expression suddenly changed and he snatched the secret report from Xu Chu's hand.

He couldn't believe that Liu Bei had such courage and dared to arrogantly claim the throne!

"Didn't that big-eared thief always use the banner of helping the Han Dynasty?"

"He dared to call himself king without permission. Isn't he no different from Yuan Shu?"

"Didn't he slap himself in the face?"

Sima Yi was also full of surprise and couldn't believe this amazing news.

Naturally, Cao Cao didn't believe it either, but as he watched, the surprise on his face turned into anger.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Cao Cao roared, and threw the silk book in his hand hard at Liu Xie's face.

Liu Xie, who was already feeling guilty, hurriedly opened the silk book and took a look.

His body shook, and his face froze for a moment of panic.

Information on the silk book It was written clearly:

It was Queen Fu Shou who took out the edict he wrote and made Liu Bei the King of Yan in his name!

That’s why Liu Bei claimed that he was enthroned as king in accordance with the edict.

This also means that Liu Bei To be king is not to be arrogant, but to be upright and justified.

"Queen, she, she, she..."

Liu Xie was trembling, with cold sweat rolling down his forehead. He didn't know how to explain to Cao Cao.

"Let me explain it to you!"

"You have already drafted an edict to make that big-eared thief king so that you can win over him and make him work for you."

"I took you back, but Fu Shou fell into the hands of the big-eared thief. The bitch took out this edict to ask for credit from the big-eared thief, so that he could legitimately become the king!"

"Yes and no!"

Cao Cao immediately guessed the connection and asked Liu Xie angrily.

Liu Xie was sweating profusely, ashamed and frightened, and didn't know how to defend himself.

"boom!"

Cao Cao was furious and kicked Liu Xie.

The emperor of Han Dynasty kicked Liu Xie in the face. He was kicked directly from the dragon throne to the ground, and there was a footprint on his face.

The last trace of dignity was ruthlessly kicked to the ground by Cao Cao

"Leave him under my care and no one is allowed to meet him!"

"Kill all the eunuchs and maids in the palace and replace them with a group of obedient ones."

"From today on, anyone who dares to say a word to him will be killed immediately!"

Cao Cao was so angry that he issued another death order.

Not only did he have to imprison Liu Xie under house arrest, but the palace maids and eunuchs were not even allowed to say a word to Liu Xie.

This was to retaliate and torture Liu Xie, making him worse than death!

Liu Xie He was so frightened that he ignored the pain on his face, climbed forward and hugged Cao Cao's legs.

"Sikong, this is not my fault, this is the Queen's bitch trying to please the big-eared thief.~~"

"Sikong, you can't be so cruel and treat me like this.~~"

Cao Cao kicked him away, flicked his sleeves, and walked away.

Liu Xie could only lie on the ground and watched helplessly as Cao Cao left and the gate of the Golden Palace was closed tightly.

"Fushou, you bitch!"

"You just kicked me out of the car (cjbg), but you still dare to use my edict to claim credit from Liu Bei. You have done me harm.~~"

Liu Xie hit the ground with his fists, gritted his teeth, and complained with great grief and anger.

Half an hour later, Sikong Mansion.

Xun Yu, Guo Jia, Sima Yi, Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren and other important civil and military officials have all gathered. (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"The big-eared thief, who weaves mats and sells shoes, dares to claim the title of king. It is really hateful!"

"I want to mobilize all my troops to attack that traitor!"

"What do you think?"

Cao Cao, who was sitting high on the throne, shouted angrily to everyone.

Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren and other generals were naturally very angry, and they all advocated the crusade against Liu Bei.

"Liu Bei becoming king is certainly hateful"

"But after all, he had received an imperial edict from the emperor, and this edict came from the hands of the queen, so its credibility is extremely high."

"In other words, Liu Bei’s claim to the throne was justifiable."

"If Sikong Ruo crusaded against him because he was king, it would be unsatisfactory for him to have an unnamed teacher."

Xun Yu agreed with the generals and took the lead in calmly persuading Cao Cao.

"At present, Sikong has settled in Hebei. People's hearts have not yet been calmed down, and the troops have not yet been reorganized."

"The soldiers of our army have been fighting for many years. The soldiers are in urgent need of rest and recuperation. The food and grass supplies are also exhausted. It takes time to regroup."

"Feng thought that it was not the best time to raise an overwhelming army to fight Liu Bei at this time."

Tian Feng also stood up and opposed the immediate war against Liu Bei.

Immediately afterwards[]

Guo Jia also left work and bowed his hand to Cao Cao:

"Jia believes that the first thing Sikong should do now is to pacify the three states of Hebei and integrate Liangzhou in Guanzhong."

"We must integrate the Youzhou Army, Bingzhou Army, Heishan Army, Xiliang Army, and Yuan Shao's surrendered army in the shortest possible time to ensure their absolute loyalty to Sikong"

"Only in this way can we have enough strength to defeat Liu Bei and realize the great cause of Sikong unifying the world!"

The counselors were still calm, and they all considered the overall situation and the long term.

Cao Cao's anger gradually calmed down.

In other words, in his heart, he also knew that it was not wise to treat Liu Bei's troops at this time. It was just that his mind could not Ming said that he needs to use the mouths of all the counselors to say it for him.

Otherwise,

Liu Bei has openly proclaimed himself king, but you have done nothing, and you don't even dare to say a fart.

Who will be afraid of you, and who will take you seriously? thing?

"What you said is indeed true."

"The big-eared thief wants to crusade, but the time is not now"

"Reorganizing the troops of various states is indeed the top priority."

Cao Cao also borrowed the donkey from the slope, nodded slightly, and listened to the advice of the counselors.

Xun Yu and others secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But Xiahou Dun looked dissatisfied and said solemnly:

"But the big-eared thief openly proclaimed himself emperor, and if Sikong ignored him, wouldn't it make the world laugh at Sikong for being afraid of the big-eared thief?"

"At that time, the big-eared thief was the king of the feudal lords. Mengde was just a Sikong, so your title was overshadowed by the big-eared thief!"

Cao Cao's eyes were shocked, and his brows knitted together again.

Xiahou Dun was right.

Liu Bei is the king of Yan appointed by the emperor.

You are just a Sikong.

Even if you advance to the next level, at most you will be a general, or even a general. Prime Minister.

When the time comes for you, a mere prime minister, to lead an army to attack the King of Yan, won't you be guilty of the following?

Sima Yi, who had been silent, rolled his eyes, suddenly his eyes flashed, and he immediately stepped out of the line

"Liu Bei is a traitor, yet he dares to arrogate and claim the throne"

"Sikong Gonggong built the country, where destiny lies, and all people return to their hearts, so he should be crowned king!"

"Yi asked Sikong to take over as king!".
