Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 37 Liu Xie Succession
As the saying goes: A country cannot be without a king for a day, and a family cannot be without an owner for a day.Emperor Han Ling passed away, of course someone needs to succeed him.

Although Liu Hong, Emperor Lingdi of the Han Dynasty, had ordered Liu Xie to be the crown prince before his death, and even stamped the seal, there were still many ministers in the court who believed that Liu Bian should be allowed to ascend the throne, such as Yuan Huai.It's just that Liu Hong just died in the hall, and it's not easy for these people to come out and say these things, so they can only discuss it in the future.

Ye Mo and others accompanied Cao Cao back to the city of Luoyang, when suddenly a boy from an unknown family rushed up to the group of people, bowed and saluted, "Master Cao, Lord Ye, my lord invites Lord Cao and Lord Ye Go to the banquet tonight." As he spoke, the servant took out two invitation cards from his sleeve.

Cao Cao took the invitation and opened it. It turned out that the invitation was from Zhonglang Jiang Lu Zhi.

"Why did your lord invite the two of us to the banquet?" Cao Cao asked, looking at the boy, the invitation in his hand dangling between himself and Ye Yi.

"This villain doesn't know." The boy replied directly, and Cao Cao and others were not surprised by this answer.The little servant continued: "If the two adults have nothing else to do, the villain will go back and return."

"Well, it's all right. You go back and tell Lu Zhonglang that Cao will definitely be on time for the banquet."

"Ye will also come to the banquet on time." Ye Que saw that Cao Cao had said that, what else could he do, why not go?

Seeing that the two agreed, the young man also informed him and went back to return his orders.

"Master Ye, what do you think about this?" Cao Cao looked at Ye Que who was beside him after seeing Lu Zhi's servant had left.

"Lu Zhonglang suddenly invited you and me to a banquet. I'm afraid something will happen." Seeing Cao Cao's question, Ye Que thought about what happened these days, frowned slightly, and said slowly.

Seeing Ye Que's appearance, Cao Cao suddenly laughed.Cao Cao is not tall, and his skin is darker, so he suddenly laughed on the streets of Luoyang City, which caused many passers-by to look sideways, but no one dared to say that Cao Cao was wearing an official uniform. He what.After laughing enough, Cao Cao looked at the puzzled Ye Que and said, "Master Ye, Mr. Cao didn't think anything happened. Mr. Ye would like to know what the Holy Majesty's order was in the morning court today?" When he said the last sentence, Cao Cao suddenly leaned over and said to Ye Que in a low voice.

"Isn't Your Majesty Feng Ding serving as Jinwu today? Does His Majesty have any other intentions?" Ye Que was really attracted by Cao Cao's words.

"Today, the Holy Majesty has issued four decrees, and Master Ding's is only one of them. Can Master Ye guess what the other three decrees are?" Cao Cao pretended to be mysterious, and seeing Ye Que attracted by his words, he was even more excited. Sell ​​off.

Seeing Cao Cao's temperament, Ye Que put a smile on his face, and said, "One of the imperial decrees must have something to do with Mr. Cao's promotion, right? The other must have something to do with Que, otherwise Lu Zhonglang's night banquet would not have happened." The invitation is missing. It’s just that the remaining one cannot be guessed.”

After hearing Ye Que's guess, Cao Cao said, "Lord Ye guessed half of it. Mr. Cao won't be fooled. Today, at the court meeting, the Holy Spirit issued four orders, one of which is to seal Lord Ding as the king of Jinwu." ;Secondly, Mr. Ye guessed right, and Mr. Cao was named Prime Minister Sizhi; thirdly, Mr. Ye guessed half right, the Holy Lord appointed the second prince as the crown prince, and Mr. Ye was named the prince to wash horses. Congratulations to Mr. Cao Lord Ye is gone."

"Same joy, same joy, Ye is just taking advantage of the second prince, Mr. Cao was promoted by his own real ability." Seeing Cao Cao salute him suddenly, Ye Que naturally wanted to return the salute, but Ye Que still had doubts in his heart, "It's just that the second prince has been made the crown prince, so what about the eldest prince?"

"The fourth imperial decree is related to the eldest prince. The emperor decreed that the eldest prince be crowned King Chenliu. He can only enjoy food and not leave the palace." Cao Cao's voice was deliberately lowered when he said this.

After hearing this, Ye Que was shocked.And Ye Mo behind him was even more shocked.This is no longer a question of deviating from the original track of history.I didn't expect that the death of Shi Changshi would bring such a big stimulus to Liu Hong. This is the rhythm of awakening in the middle.

Taking advantage of the death of the ten permanent servants to get angry at the officials, and the timing of Ding Yuan's introduction of troops to Luoyang, he issued four imperial edicts.On the one hand, he can win over Ding Yuan and Cao Cao, so that he can use his own soldiers; on the other hand, the second prince, Liu Xie, who is more intelligent, can be the prince, and at the same time, Liu Bian is under house arrest, so that Liu Bian will not be directly used by those who want to.

This is not the Liu Hong in the original history, it is simply a different person.If it is said that Liu Hong is also possessed by someone through time travel, Ye Mo will never doubt it.

"My lord, something serious has happened." Just as Ye Mo and Ye Que were shocked, one of Wang Yue's disciples ran over.

"What happened?" Ye Que didn't panic when he heard that someone had said something important.The young master is here, what can happen?Even if something really happened, as long as the young master was around, it would be fine.

"The news from the palace is that the Holy Emperor has passed away." The words are not shocking. Of course, it is inappropriate to use it in this place, but the news brought by Wang Yue, a disciple, is true. Everyone present is frightened. , except one, of course.

Ye Mo originally suspected that Liu Hong was reborn after being possessed by someone through time travel, and that's why he had the magical strokes of the four imperial decrees before.Now that he heard that Liu Hong was dead, Ye Mo almost didn't clap his hands and say "OK". "Even if you are awakened, you can go to another continent to be reborn. I will take good care of your son in your Great Han Dynasty." Ye Mo thought in his heart.

Cao Cao was shocked. He thought that the emperor suddenly woke up and the Han Dynasty was going to be revived. He didn't expect Liu Hong's death to come so suddenly. "Master Ye, Mr. Cao, go home first and take a rest. I'll see you at Lu Zhonglang's house tonight."

As night fell, in Lu Zhi's mansion, there were many ministers sitting upright, including Cao Cao and Ye Que.

"My lords, although today's banquet is a small gathering among our colleagues, I mainly want to tell you about the succession of the prince in the future." After finishing speaking, Lu Zhi picked up a glass of wine and tasted it carefully. He stood up, as if it wasn't him who spoke before.

"The Holy Majesty has issued a decree to confer the title of the Second Prince as the Crown Prince, so we officials must abide by the Holy Majesty's will." The one who spoke was Wang Yun.Wang Yun is a veteran minister in the court. After losing the battle with Zhang Rang, the ten permanent attendant, he went home and lived in seclusion for a while. It was not until He Jin came to power that Wang Yun returned to his official position.

When Wang Yun said this, everyone sitting down whispered to each other and nodded from time to time.From the chief seat, Lu Zhi saw that everyone in the seat agreed with this point of view, and nodded without showing any signs.

At another location, there was also a night banquet, but the content of their conversation was not to support Liu Xie's succession according to the will of Emperor Han Ling.

After the banquet, Ye Que didn't go back to his mansion directly, but went to the residence of Liu Xie, the second prince of the palace.When Ye Que arrived at Liu Xie's place, Liu Xie hadn't rested yet, just hid in his palace and had fun secretly.Seeing Ye Que coming, Liu Xie hastily greeted him.

"Sir, why are you here?" Liu Xie was very surprised. Logically speaking, Ye Que should also be secretly laughing at this time. After all, he will succeed tomorrow. As his teacher, Ye Que should be with him. There is honor.

Looking at the seven-year-old child in front of him, Ye Que felt that the reality was too cruel for him.If Liu Hong can live for a few more years, according to Liu Hong's appearance today, the situation handed over to Liu Xie in the future will be much better than it is now.

"Prince, don't forget, you are the son of a man first, and the prince of a country second." Ye Que said to Liu Xie aloud.

When Liu Xie heard Ye Que say this, he also knew that Ye Que reminded himself not to be too happy.Ye Que had been Liu Xie's teacher for several months, so Liu Xie naturally knew that Ye Que was doing it for his own good. "Sir, I will remember." Before Liu Xie was still a prince, he naturally called himself "the king". Now that he has become a prince, he can no longer use his previous title.

"It's good that the prince knows. I came here so late just to remind the prince that there may be some obstacles to the succession of the prince tomorrow." Ye Que looked at Liu Xie and said calmly.

"What?" Liu Xie became angry all of a sudden, and said loudly, "Do those ministers dare to disobey the emperor's will?"

"Look at you, what are you talking about? Don't forget that you taught the prince something before." Looking at the angry Liu Xie, Ye Que waited for him to finish his anger before continuing to speak.Liu Xie felt ashamed when he thought about his performance just now.

"The prince is still preparing to succeed to the throne earlier, but tomorrow I want to see who dares to violate the will of the Holy Majesty." When Ye Que said this, Liu Xie suddenly felt that the temperature in the room dropped a few degrees. generally.
