Chapter 91

The way Liu Xie looked at Liu Xiu was very kind.

Under the imperial edict of appointing Liu Xiu to take charge of Jingzhou, Liu Xiu is the main force to save him, and Liu Xie naturally looks at him.

Liu Xie laughed and said, "no gift!"

Cao Cao answered and asked, "Liu Xiu, your Majesty's birthday, what gift do you offer?"

Liu Xiu held the sandalwood box in both hands and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty's birthday, Liu Xiu presented the first emperor's sword tai'a sword. I wish your majesty a long and prosperous life."

WOW!

This remark caused a sensation immediately.

Looking at Liu Xiu's eyes one by one, it was even more incredible.

Tai'a sword is the sword of the first emperor.

It's extraordinary that Liu Xiu's personal gift should be such a heavy gift.

Compared with Cao Cao's surrender of Ma Teng, the effect of presenting tai'a sword is even more sensational. The officials in the court, whether from Cao Cao or the emperor, were shocked.

Liu Xie's eyes were full of joy.

As an emperor, having the sword of the first emperor of Qin Dynasty virtually enhanced the emperor's credibility.

With a smile on his face, Liu Xie nodded and said, "I'm very satisfied with you

"Wait!"

Suddenly, Cao Cao interrupted directly.

Cao Cao bowed to Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty, whether it is tai'a sword or not needs to be verified."

Liu Xie frowned and his eyes showed dissatisfaction.

Without waiting for Liu Xie to reply, Cao Cao went straight forward. He took a look at Liu Xiu. For the first time, he felt uncontrollable. It's amazing that a gift was presented with a sword.

Cao Cao personally opened the sandalwood box and took out tai'a sword.

Holding the sword in your hand makes you feel different.

Cao Cao waved twice in the air, praised: "good sword, good sword!" He stopped and looked at it. Seeing the seal script on the sword, he nodded and said, "it's really tai'a sword."

With a wave of his hand, the servant took tai'a sword and sent it to Liu Xie's desk.

However, in Liu Xie's mind, there is something wrong.

A good tai'a sword passed through Cao Cao's hand before it reached him.

Liu Xie Duan was very surprised and said, "Sikong, although Liu Xiu has no official position, he is also a member of the royal family. It's a great achievement to present tai'a sword this time. How does Sikong plan to reward Liu Xiu? "

Liu Xie knew that he had to pass Cao Cao to reward Liu Xiu.

Without Cao Cao's consent, all the decrees could not be carried out.

Fu Wan got up, arched his hand and said: "Sikong, Liu Xiu offered tai'a sword. You have to reward it. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public after the news comes out."

Kong Rong stood up, arched his hand and said, "please Sikong Mingjian!"

For a moment, the officials of the first Department of the emperor stood up one after another to ask for a reward.

On the contrary, Cao Cao and his generals did not get up.

On the main hall, a strange scene was formed. Originally, it was to celebrate the emperor's birthday, but now it has evolved to take Liu Xiu as the breakthrough point, and began to argue about the reward given to Liu Xiu.

"Silence

Cao Cao's eyes were in a daze, and he yelled in a deep voice.

For the first time, he looked at Liu Xiu's eyes, no longer appreciating, but feeling a headache.

Cao Cao looked around at all the people. In an instant, all the important ministers in the court were quiet.

When Liu Xiu saw this, he was filled with emotion.

Cao Cao's power has been deeply rooted in the hearts of court officials. This is not just Cao Cao's cruel means, killing countless people. Moreover, because Cao Cao made great contributions to the war, he wiped out the chaos in the north and calmed down the war in the north.

No one can learn this power.

Cao Cao's eyes fell on Liu Xiu again, thinking about the reward for Liu Xiu.

This award must be able to convince the public, but it can not give Liu Xiu practical benefits. It must also make Cao Cao feel comfortable. Otherwise, it will directly benefit Liu Xiu and make Cao Cao uncomfortable.

Cao Cao's eyes swept over Zhang Zhen, and his eyes brightened, thinking of the reward given to Liu Xiu. Immediately, Cao Cao turned to Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty, I think of the reward given to Liu Xiu."

"How to reward?"

Liu Xie was also curious.

Most importantly, in Liu Xie's mind, I wish Liu Xiu could get more benefits. The more benefits Liu Xiu got, the more important Liu Xiu's role would be.

Cao Cao said in a deep voice, "if Liu Xiu offers tai'a sword, he has to be rewarded. This official decided to appoint Liu Xiu as the prefect of Yuzhang Prefecture and the shepherd. "

"Not Sikong!"

Zhang Zhen got up and objected immediately.

Yuzhang county is under the rule of Sun Quan. Now Cao Cao has appointed Liu Xiu as the prefect of Yuzhang county. Isn't this equal to cutting the flesh on Sun Quan?

Most importantly, this is undoubtedly creating a contradiction between Jiangdong and Jingzhou.

Cao Cao stared at Zhang and said, "Zhang, why not?"Zhang Dan's heart thumped. He openly opposed Cao Cao in the main hall. I'm afraid the situation would be very bad. However, when it comes to the interests of Jiangdong, Zhang can not shrink back.

In the face of Cao Cao, Zhang Gong said: "return to Sikong, Yuzhang county has sunben town guard. Under the governance of sun Ben, Yuzhang county was peaceful and people were safe. The rash placement of the prefect may cause mutiny among the people. "

Cao Cao's intention is to let Liu Xiu stir up the situation in Jiangdong and Jingzhou.

At this time, it is impossible to agree with Zhang.

As soon as Cao Cao brushed his sleeve, he sternly scolded: "Zhang Zhen, is it necessary for officials to stay all the time when they govern a land? If so, how can the world be governed? "

Zhang Zhen frowned and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

In Liu Xiu's eyes, there was a trace of brilliance and unexpected joy.

If this order is really issued, it would be more appropriate for Liu Xiu to recommend himself to you County of Changsha as magistrate. Because Changsha County borders Yuzhang county.

Zhang took a deep breath and said again, "Sikong, please think twice."

Cao Cao waved and said, "no

After a pause, Cao Cao turned to look at Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty, Liu Xiu has excellent ability, both civil and military. He is sure to be able to run Yuzhang county without leaving anything on the road and staying at home at night. Your Majesty's permission is requested. "

Liu Xie was also very familiar with the territory division of the Han Dynasty.

Moreover, after hearing Zhang's words, Liu Xie knew Cao Cao's plan, but he didn't intend to stop it.

If Liu Xiu had the ability, he would fight for Yuzhang Prefecture.

Liu Xie big sleeve a whisk, said: "I am accurate."

Immediately, Liu Xie asked people to prepare the imperial edict, then sealed it and handed it to Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu, holding the imperial edict in his hand, bowed and said, "thank you, your majesty."

Liu Xie nodded slightly, feeling that the relationship between himself and Liu Xiu was a step further.

Looking at this scene, Cao Cao also looked forward to the further intensification of the conflict between Jingzhou and Jiangdong.

After the ceremony, Liu Xiu sat down beside Cao Cao.

Cao Cao ordered a banquet. At the banquet, there were singers, wine and food, which were both appetizing and delicious. Most of the officials in the hall were Cao Cao's.

Under the leadership of Cao Cao, the banquet was very lively.

After the banquet, Cao Cao led the civil and military officials to go out, and Pang Degong and Liu Xiu also went out with a smile. Only Zhang Zhen was in a very low mood.

This time, Cao Cao appointed Liu Xiu to be the prefect of Yuzhang Prefecture, clearly to provoke a war between the two sides.

After walking out of the palace, Zhang Zhen looked at Pang Degong and said, "Pang Gong, Cao Cao has a different intention. Please report to Liu Jingzhou carefully after you return to Jingzhou about the eunuch of Yuzhang county. "

Pang Degong nodded and said: "I will explain things about Yuzhang County clearly. When will Zigang leave for China? "

"I'll go to Sikong mansion to say goodbye to Cao Cao early tomorrow morning," Zhang replied

Mr. pound nodded and said, "in this way, we may have taken the lead. Today, I said goodbye to Cao Cao, and then I was ready to leave. "

"In that case, I wish Pang Gong a pleasant journey."

Zhang said, got on the carriage and left.

When Pang Degong and Liu Xiu looked at each other, they also boarded the carriage and went to their residence.
