The first thousand three hundred and ninety-two chapters of peace and prosperity
Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others had long given up the idea of killing Wu Xin and Yuan Shu, otherwise they would not have been able to successfully reach the Forbidden Palace.
Unexpectedly, Wu Xin and Yuan Shu were so greedy for life and fearful of death that they even led their troops to accompany them before they dared to enter the palace!
This left Cao Cao and others quite speechless...
There is still some guilt, which is hard to blame.
After all, if Wu Xin and Yuan Shu suddenly led their troops before accompanying them, they would have joined forces to ambush him!
"Li Huang! According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, anyone who brings troops into the palace is tantamount to treason. There is no precedent for leading troops into the palace. Are Li Huang sure he wants to do this?"
Feeling the passage of time and the change in the atmosphere, Cao Cao thought for a while, looked at Wu Xin and reminded him. After a pause, he quickly added: "Not only Emperor Li and Lord Yuan, but we also did not lead the army into the palace!"
The implication is that we will not assassinate Emperor Li in the palace!
Having said that, based on their understanding of Emperor Li and their assessment of his strength, the possibility of being successfully assassinated is very small. He can do anything in the world. I really don’t know what Emperor Li is afraid of. He is too cautious and afraid of death!
Wu Xin still insisted: "If we advance together, we will advance together; if we retreat, we will retreat together! The Emperor of Han and Wei and all your lords, please give me a clear message. If this doesn't work, I will turn around and leave. There is no need to say anything!"
"What tricks does Emperor Li want to play? Does he want to kill us in the forbidden palace?!"
Liu Bei, Sun Ce, Lu Bu and others were quite speechless, while Cao Cao was shocked and couldn't help but become suspicious.
Although Xuchang was captured by the Wei army and was owned by Cao Cao to some extent. However, in order to show his selflessness, loyalty and respect, Cao Cao did not interfere too much with the affairs of the Forbidden Palace. Most of the Han Imperial Guards in the Forbidden Palace were
A loyal man.
Emperors such as Cao, Liu, Sun, and Yuan really did not set any ambushes or traps in the Forbidden Palace!
Emperor Li insisted on leading his troops into the palace, which made the suspicious Cao Cao and the cautious Liu Bei start to have their own thoughts!
"Just come in! It's getting late!"
Sun Ce, the emperor of Wu, did not have much scheming, and shouted impatiently. Although Sun Ce was also surprised by the behavior of leaving the emperor, he did not think too much about it, or it could be said that a skilled man is bold!
"Then...come in!"
Cao Cao hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth helplessly and replied.
Based on Cao Cao's understanding of Emperor Li, if he refused, Emperor Li would really lead his army to leave. Then wouldn't the new capital of Xuchang, the Xuchang Conference, and Cao Cao become the laughingstock of the world? It would be a huge blow to the Wei Empire!
Anyway, Cao Cao really didn’t want to ambush Lihuang Wuxin and Yuan Shu in the Forbidden Palace. Could they in turn kill Cao Cao in the Forbidden Palace?!
After weighing the pros and cons, Cao Cao could only admit it while pinching his nose in frustration!
Mountains and rivers meet each other, and Cao Cao remembered this incident!
…
Forbidden Palace!
Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, who has a childish face but is obviously much more mature and steady, sits high on the throne, surrounded by civil and military princes from all over the dynasty.
There were about three to four hundred people in the whole palace, and it looked exactly like that. It was fully equipped with civil and military personnel, and all officials were in place.
The leader of the hundred officials is naturally Cao Cao, the great emperor of the Han and Wei dynasties, followed by the Emperor of Shu Liu Bei, the Emperor of Wu Sun Ce, the newly crowned King of Ye Yuan Shao, the newly arrived Marquis of Wen Lu Bu and various powerful ministers.
Opposite Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others were Lihuang Wuxin, who only retained the post of general, Yuan Shu, and then Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Liu Biao, Liu Zhang, Kong Rong and other ministers who were still loyal to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.
It is worth mentioning that because the Eighteen Prefectures of Xiangyang were occupied by the Li Army, and the Bashu region belonged to the Great Shu Dynasty, some people such as Liu Biao and Liu Zhang in Wu Xin's previous life memories were also leaders of one party, but they were not princes and were not released to the outside world.
Kong Rong, Gongsun Zan and others were "eliminated" in the wars between the princes and were loyal to Wu, Wei and others respectively.
Hundreds of civil and military officials lined up, but their camps were quite obvious.
It is mainly divided into three camps, the four emperors and Lu Bu and others are in one camp, the old ministers and loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty are in one camp, and the emperor Wu Xin and the queen general Yuan Shu are in another camp, and the two leaders are quite miserable.
Other subordinates followed behind.
"The emperor returns, rules the world with benevolence, establishes a new imperial court, and grants amnesty to the world! Now the world is at peace, the rivers are clear and the sea is peaceful..."
After all the officials paid their respects, Zhao Wen, an old minister of the Han Dynasty, took the lead in going out to sing his praises.
In Zhao Wen's words, now that the world is at peace, the troubled times have disappeared, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and many famous giants and bandits have been wiped out, it is like a peaceful and prosperous age, and it is possible to release the horses to Nanshan and store the swords and guns in the warehouse.
Of course, what Zhao Wen said is not entirely false to a certain extent.
As long as the emperors, princes, etc. in the palace no longer start wars, the world will indeed be peaceful, and there will be far fewer bandits than in the previous dynasty...
Because the bandits were basically wiped out by various forces, Zhao'an may have surrendered!
"Your Majesty..."
After Zhao Wen finished describing the "beautiful scenery of the prosperous age", Cao Cao, the great emperor of the Han and Wei dynasties, came out and saluted respectfully. Then he stood up, looked at Yuan Shu and shouted loudly:
"The later general Yuan Shu was treasonous and dishonest. He committed a major crime such as stealing the country's land. Our lord is kind and wise. He allowed him to pardon and reinstate his official position. However, he required the later general to hand over the military power and political power in various cities and places. What do you think, sir?"
"As it should be!"
"That's right! That's right! If the name is not right... then the words will not be right!"
"Old minister seconded the proposal!"
As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, dozens of people quickly echoed his words, making the atmosphere noisy.
Following closely, Liu Bei, Sun Ce, Yuan Shao, Lu Bu and other men with heavy troops also followed and seconded the proposal, and then their respective subordinates seconded the proposal...
Finally, there are Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, Fu Wan and other loyal ministers and veterans of the Han Dynasty. Although they know that it is not that simple, they really want to see the "peaceful and prosperous age" described by Zhao Wen, as long as the emperors and princes are willing to hand over their power.
, everyone is happy!
For a time, the whole hall was filled with loud voices and a warm atmosphere.
Yuan Shu, on the other hand, turned pale and pleading, looking at Li Huang Wuxin hopefully, looking pitiful.
At this time, Yuan Shu was simply a "public enemy of the world", and everyone in the dynasty was referring to him!
"Lihuang?!"
Seeing that there was no response from Huang Wuxin, Yuan Shu couldn't help shouting, but it was not a sound transmission.
There was no one weak among the civil and military officials in the palace. Although Yuan Shu's voice was low, it was clearly heard in everyone's ears. The noisy atmosphere suddenly stopped and became much quieter. They all looked at Li Huang Wuxin...
Now the situation is obvious. Whether "Yuan Shu" can be swallowed depends mainly on Lihuang Wuxin!
"Haha...Brother Gu, why should you panic?! Since it's what everyone expects, we naturally have to follow the trend and pay what's due! Whoever wants it, just take it for yourself..."
Everyone was silent and paying attention, Wu Xin chuckled a few times with a relaxed face, and responded naturally to appease Yuan Shu!
"Ah?! Li Huang, you..."
Yuan Shu was startled, staring at Wu Xin in disbelief, pointing at Wu Xin's arm, which was visibly shaking!
"Lord..." Chen Ji's heart moved and he called in a low voice, and then it was obvious that he was transmitting the message secretly.
"call……"
Yuan Shu's pale and anxious face was obviously much relieved. He couldn't help but exhaled for a long time, but his face was full of anger, and he said with a sharp voice:
"If everyone hands over their military power, political power, etc., I will naturally have no objection! If you only want me to hand it over, then come and get it yourself. I will definitely entertain you with all my strength!"
