Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

When Zhuge Liang entered Luoyang, there were lanterns and colorful decorations everywhere.

He was confused at first, but the clerk who accompanied him described what happened in these days in detail.

It is precisely because of this...

Zhuge Liang just knew that the emperor was in Jingzhou.

There are rumors that the emperor is deliberately avoiding Liu Bei, going out on patrol and staying in Jingzhou without coming back. For this reason, Liu Bei is now going to Jingzhou in person to invite——

Compared to the unification of the world, this is a small matter.

But for Zhuge Liang, he immediately noticed the problems and sensitivities here. This His Majesty, who had "a wandering life", "lonely" and "troubled by disasters", still had worries. I still don’t want to be a puppet anymore, for fear of being a puppet for half my life.

Of course, for this kind of thing, the person who untied the bell must also tie the bell. Zhuge Liang was assured of his master Liu Bei, whether it was his speaking skills, his stance, or his firmness towards the Han Dynasty.

Tracing back to his roots, he is destined not to be Cao Cao, not Dong Zhuo, not Yuan Shao, and not even Wang Mang!

Looking at the entire history, he is also one of the few British rulers who founded a country with "benevolence and virtue"!

Of course, apart from Liu Bei not being in Luoyang, Zhuge Liang was also thinking, where is Guan Lin? Why, he's already here in Luoyang, why can't he still see Guan Lin?

But what the civil servant said next made Zhuge Liang understand.

Guan Lin was not in Luoyang either. He took Zhang Xingcai to Jiangdong.

As for the reason, it was because his child was about to be born in Jiangdong. This was nothing. It was common for young people to be impulsive, show mercy, plant a seed, and take root and sprout.

What's more, it's a young man with Guan Lin's status, status and merits.

But... what Zhuge Liang never expected was that the child's mother was Sun Quan's daughter——

This can't help but make Zhuge Liang look at Guan Lin with admiration.

After destroying his country, he got his daughter and gave birth to Lin'er.

This style of play is...exquisite!

In Zhuge Liang's view, it was originally thought that Guan Suo, the fifth son of the Guan family...captured the Barbarian King's daughter with his own charm and used it to reverse the situation, which was enough to defy heaven, but now...Guan Lin, Guan Yunqi, compared to his younger brother Don’t give in if you don’t try too hard!

Just when Zhuge Liang was sighing.

The words of the civil servant came out again, "Although Uncle Liu Huang and Master Guan are not in Luoyang,... the situation in the entire world has been stabilized."

Well…

Zhuge Liang paused for a moment, and the feather fan stopped. He asked, "How do you say it?"

The civil servant suddenly became very excited, "From Bashu to Luoyang, Zhuge's military advisor has been walking all the way for two whole months... The world has changed a lot."

After an opening remark, the civil servant was dancing for joy, "The first big thing that happened recently is that Cao Zhang made some kind of alliance in Bingzhou, and recruited all the barbarians. I heard that there were a total of 400,000... But... Our Fourth Young Master Guan combined with Cao Cao, used Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan as bait, and burned all these barbarians with a fire. It is said that not one of them escaped back, and even... There is such a saying in the border areas now - Beyond the Great Wall No more boys!"

oh…

When he heard this piece of news, Zhuge Liang was shocked. It was not that... this battle burned many wild dogs, nor was it that this battle left no men outside the wall, but... but... what the official mentioned, Guan Si Gongzi Join forces with Cao Cao and use Zhang Wenyuan as bait.

this…

This is the most meaningful.

Here, Zhuge Liang is still immersed in the cooperation between Guan Lin, Cao Cao, and Zhang Liao.

The words of the literary official continued, and became more explosive: "After the battle of Bingzhou...in order to conquer Jizhou, Master Yunqi directly used his death chamber next to Cao Pi, and cut off Cao Pi's head with one knife, along with General Guan and the Han army. The soldiers descended from the sky, and the battle of Yecheng in Jizhou was a bloodless surrender. After that... Cao Cao's fourth son, Cao Zhi, wrote more than ten letters of persuasion to surrender and sent them to the entire Youzhou, Qingzhou, and Jizhou... Today, all states in Qingzhou, Youzhou, and Jizhou All prefectures and counties have surrendered! Just yesterday, General Guan sent a letter saying that the northern border has been completely recovered, and the word Wei no longer exists in the north. Now...it can be said that the entire world is Han territory——"

Excited tone, dancing movements...

Every word could not conceal the excitement and ecstasy in this literary official's heart.

this…

If Zhuge Liang had heard before that the 400,000 barbarians in Bingzhou were burned and there were no men in Mobei, Zhuge Liang was only slightly surprised.

So.

Now, Zhuge Liang suddenly had an incredible feeling.

So much so that he couldn't help but whisper: "In death? Cao Pi's head? Cao Zhi's persuasion to surrender? Yun Qi again... Is this Yun Qi's masterpiece again?"

It was with this chant that suddenly... Zhuge Liang realized that he... he had come to Luoyang, but... everything seemed to be over.

No, to be precise, it was because of Yun Qi that everything ended!

That's when...

The civil servant suddenly thought of something and opened his mouth quickly, "I almost forgot to report to Zhuge Military Advisor. Your Majesty has awarded hundreds of officials, and Zhuge Military Advisor has been named the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty. From now on... we should also change our words and call ourselves Prime Minister Zhuge."

At this point, the civil servants took a step back respectfully, and a group of Han soldiers also stepped back, and then everyone handed over their hands.

"Meet Prime Minister Zhuge——"

Prime Minister?

Zhuge Liang's eyes were filled with light...

He never thought that one day he would become the prime minister of the Han Dynasty and assist the emperor in managing the entire empire.

This was something he had never thought about while working on his farmland.

But it seemed like... there was a voice in the dark, telling him that the position of prime minister seemed to be destined... and it must be him!

But after all...

It seemed...in the first half when the big man dominated, Guan Lin did everything for him.

From the bottom of his heart, Zhuge Liang felt that he deserved the position of prime minister——

Of course, after the first half where the big man dominated, there is still the second half...

For a moment, Zhuge Liang thought of the Emperor, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Ma Chao, Guan Yu...

Obviously, the more he thought about it, the more he realized that this big man's second half didn't seem to be easy at all.

…

…

Xiangyang, Jingzhou, on the banks of the Han River.

The fishing rod in Liu Xie's hand dropped because he was too nervous.

He was a little frightened and at a loss, "What? I will give up the throne to the emperor's uncle? The emperor's uncle will not give up? Or... three times to persuade and three times to give in? The emperor's uncle means that he will accept it after I give in three times?"

The envoy said thoughtfully, "Perhaps Uncle Liu is really not like Cao Cao and Dong Zhuo, let alone wolves and tigers like Li Jue and Guo Bang... He has no intention of coveting or usurping!"

call…

Hearing this, Liu Xie was thoughtful, but soon he shook his head continuously, "Impossible, absolutely impossible. When Cao Cao first welcomed me, he was like a loyal minister? Do you know how far he can do it? He even brought me the utensils I used in the Han Palace in Luoyang, just to make me feel at ease... But what happened next? … He held me hostage to order the princes... I, I have experienced this kind of suffering too many times, I... I really don’t believe that Liu Bei will... not have the desire to covet or usurp? "

this…

The envoy pondered, but a loyal veteran was silent for a long time, and said: "Perhaps, the method mentioned by Fourth Young Master Guan before is feasible! That method... can allow His Majesty and the Emperor's uncle to coexist, which is in line with... the big man's The interests are also in line with the interests of His Majesty and the Emperor's uncle! It is precisely because of this that the Emperor's uncle really... wants to let go of the throne. "

Hearing this, Liu Xie paused for a moment, and then slowly chanted, "Constitutional monarchy? Constitutional monarchy? Monarch...constitutionalism?"

Three repeated words in a row...

Liu Xie suddenly sat on the ground, and then laughed hysterically, "If that's true, at least the world will always belong to the Han Dynasty, and at least I can be free... That's right... I'm right, right?"

yes…

Liu Xie longs for freedom so much!

He has been locked in a cage for decades, and he longs to be able to travel without restraint, just like now...

If he wants to go to Jingzhou, he can go to Jingzhou.

If he wants to go to Sili, he can go back to Sili!

He is afraid, afraid of losing it all! I am also afraid of losing this hard-won freedom!

Just thinking of this, Liu Xie exclaimed, "Constitutional monarchy is good, constitutional monarchy is good... I want to see the emperor's uncle, and I will go see the emperor's uncle right now. The constitutional monarchy proposed by Yun Qi is very good, and I beg him to implement this constitutional monarchy. In order to save the world, and to put an end to the four hundred years of Han Dynasty... to put an end to all the ills brought about by the hereditary throne, even if my ancestors scolded me, I decided to do this... I can't just watch those relatives and eunuchs... The fight is getting louder again, I...I can no longer push the big man into repeated reincarnations, and I...I can't lose my freedom again in the rest of my life!"

Speaking of this, Liu Xie's eyes were filled with tears.

"Just do it...just do it. He only needs to give me the honor of being the emperor. I only need to do those etiquette. I don't want military power, and I don't want political power. I...I just want freedom. I just want freedom." ——”

…

Jingzhou, Xiangyang City, at the city gate.

The envoy who had been waiting for a long time was looking at Liu Bei in fear.

Liu Bei, on the other hand, was thinking complicatedly, and also looked at the envoy who was silent. Fazheng beside him was thoughtful, but did not say a word, let alone give any guidance...

He wanted his good friend Liu Bei to make the final decision.

After a long silence, the envoy finally took a step forward and smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty supports this constitutional monarchy. Your Majesty is the nominal emperor and accepts the worship of all people. Your uncle is the leader of this cabinet and is in charge of the government affairs and affairs of the Han Dynasty." Military affairs, this is the result of His Majesty’s careful consideration, and it is also the best result for Your Majesty and the Emperor’s uncle. Your Majesty also said... He also said..."

At the end of the sentence, the messenger hesitated to speak, but the muscles on his cheeks became stiff. Apparently, the next words made him too nervous to say them.

"What else does your Majesty say?" Liu Bei helped the envoy up and asked with concern.

"His Majesty also said that if the emperor's uncle does not agree to be the leader of this cabinet and in charge of the government and military affairs of the Han Dynasty, then... then the emperor's uncle should accept your majesty's concession! Your majesty has already prepared the jade seal... and said that he will hand it to the emperor's uncle personally. !”

this…

Liu Bei pondered for a moment.

"How could your Majesty say that?"

"It's about the emperor's oral edict. How dare I make it up? Your Majesty now... He just wants freedom, freedom... What's more, Your Majesty knows that the military power is in the hands of the Emperor's uncle, and this world was conquered by the Emperor's uncle. , Your Majesty...what else can your Majesty desire?"

"He is the emperor!" Liu Bei said solemnly, "The entire Han Dynasty belongs to him. He has everything he wants, including freedom!"

At this point, Liu Bei took off the two-pronged sword he carried with him, and then continued, "You are summoned by your Majesty, why don't you drive ahead? I will go to see the Emperor in person and lead the way -"

…

Walking up the steps alone, Liu Bei looked solemn, but his steps were very light. Obviously, he paid special attention to the etiquette that a Han minister should have.

The guarding Jinwu knelt down one after another, bowing to the current imperial uncle, no... they were bowing to the current ruler of the world.

Bow down to this person... who can control everyone, including the emperor's life and death!

However, Liu Bei's eyes flashed back to his hometown of Zhuoxian, recalling the courtyard where he lived with his mother, and the big mulberry tree in the courtyard.

He remembered that he had pointed at the big mulberry tree and said childishly.

"Sooner or later, I want to ride in this Yubaogai car!" 』

Now, all this...has come true!

As long as he wants, he can sit on this feather car forever.

But... when this day really came, he found that... his mood was complicated, restrained, and forbearing, even though... in front of him, the life and death of the emperor in the palace were all in his hands.

In Liu Bei's eyes, there is the tenacity that has been transformed through hardships, the implicitness and forbearance that can only be gathered from being familiar with current affairs, the huge ambition that can only be achieved by realizing ideals and ambitions, and also...sympathy for the emperor in front of him, and for these four hundred people. The old man was almost destroyed by his desolation and helplessness.

pity…

He is destined not to become Cao Cao——

He is also destined not to get involved in this supreme right——

Liu Bei entered the palace solemnly, his steps even gentler. But when Liu Xie noticed his arrival, he jumped up like a frightened grasshopper and looked at the emperor's uncle in a daze, at a loss. .

Liu Bei walked to the emperor Liu Xie respectfully and step by step.

With a "click" sound, he fell to his knees directly.

"I, General Liu Bei of the Han Dynasty, pay homage to Your Majesty——"

Liu Xie hurriedly helped Liu Bei up, "The emperor's uncle is finally here. The last time I met the emperor's uncle was... when we were going to the toilet in the Xuchang palace. I... oh no, what are I talking about? If the emperor's uncle wants to To be the emperor, that’s me... I’m already ready for the emperor’s uncle!”

He tremblingly picked up the jade seal on the table and held it to Liu Bei...

This thirty-year-old emperor now looks like a child who has made mistakes, trembling and uneasy.

Liu Bei quickly postponed, "What do you mean by this, Your Majesty? I am a clan member of the Han Dynasty. I am loyal to the Han Dynasty. My only goal in my life is to help the Han Dynasty. How can I usurp it?"

Liu Xie was almost crying, "This is not treason. Just because you are the great-great-grandson of Emperor Xiaojing and the son of Prince Jing of Zhongshan, so... you deserve this throne! I have been waiting for this day for a long time, and I will give up this throne." It is better to give it to you than to give it to Cao Cao... to those wolves and beasts. At least... the emperor's uncle is also a Han, and I can explain it to my ancestors! "

Liu Bei still declined.

"The inheritance of the throne is not so careless. What's more... Your Majesty has also seen that in the 400-year-old Han Dynasty, the ills caused by the hereditary throne have been numerous. The master is suspicious, the relatives are in power, and the eunuchs are in power... The 400-year-old Han Dynasty almost came close It completely fell apart. This lesson is profound!”

"Therefore, I always think about it. In the past, Yao gave the throne to Shun, and Shun gave the throne to Yu. At that time, virtuous people were selected to govern the world. Only then could the country be peaceful and the people were safe, and the current situation be stable. But after Yu defeated the public world, the public world became the family world, and now ...throughout the dynasties, there were all kinds of troubles. Later, Dong Zhongshu proposed the 'divine right of kings', which concentrated all power in the hands of the emperor. Therefore...when the emperor was in power, the country was strong, but once the emperor took over When the emperor collapsed, either eunuchs or relatives would get involved in the government affairs. In the past, there were Dou Wu and Chen Fan, and in the later years, He Jin and the Yuan family... The great Han Dynasty almost collapsed in the battle between relatives and eunuchs for hundreds of years! ...All of these are the shortcomings of the family world. It is precisely based on this that the "constitutional monarchy" mentioned by Yun Qi established a cabinet, selected cabinet members from talented people and good men, and returned the family world to the public world again. Perhaps it may not be possible to completely solve this problem, but it will definitely make it easier for the Han Dynasty to continue to thrive than today's family-world-ruling-country..."

Speaking of which, Liu Bei went on to say...

"Since the Second Emperor Huan Ling, the people have suffered too much and the common people have suffered... Your Majesty, we should reflect on this and solve this problem, instead of thinking about the ownership of the throne... Yun Qi once mentioned that I have a deep understanding, and water can carry it. A boat can also overturn a boat... Your Majesty is like a boat with this big man, and the thousands of subjects of the big Han are like water. Your Majesty must not talk about giving up the throne anymore. The top priority is to return the favor to the people of the world. An ideal country that is prosperous and healthy—"

This this…

Undoubtedly, Liu Bei's words completely blocked Liu Xie's mouth, and even made him swallow a deep gulp of saliva.

After a brief hesitation, Liu Xie took Liu Bei's hand.

"I asked the envoy to tell the emperor's uncle that this is a constitutional monarchy... I am willing, and I am also willing to let the emperor's uncle be in charge of this cabinet!"

Speaking of this, Liu Xie felt as if the mountain that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time had finally landed safely. He chanted lightly: "Uncle Emperor, there are only you and me here. I might as well meet you honestly for once... In fact, when I was eighteen years old In the past, I wanted to use my own power to save the Han Dynasty, but in the past ten years, I have found that...my power is too small and too weak. Even...Uncle Liu Huang at that time was wandering around and helpless...I I thought that the fate of the people was over, and that only by ending the Han Dynasty could the people of the world have hope, and I... I myself could have hope, but... maybe this is the destiny! "

"In this situation of internal and external troubles, which is almost a dilemma and a dead end, God sent down such a few people, which makes me feel that... the destiny may still be in Han Dynasty, and there may be room for improvement in this dead situation and predicament. One person is Zhuge Kongming. After I heard that the emperor's uncle worshiped him as his military advisor, he went to Bashu, conquered Hanzhong, and attacked Xiangfan in the north. I suddenly felt that the Han Dynasty had some hope! The second one was Guan Lin... If Prime Minister Zhuge just let me. Seeing hope, the emergence of Guan Lin seems to be destined... It removes all my frustration and disappointment and brings the big man back to normal again! "

Speaking of which…

Liu Xie paused for a moment, and then continued, "Later, I met this Guan Lin. He was indeed a magical young man. He even told me that I could still be an emperor and be worshiped by all people. He even... even proposed A method to separate imperial power from political power. I thought at that time... this method might be feasible! But after that, he proposed more methods and more systems... He said that the implementation of some systems requires a A new class, such as the workers in his Mianshui Villa, are part of this class, as well as the female textile workers, the male forging workers... these are all new classes, he said, even more advanced! The system needs the popularization of culture, so... I promulgated a bill to let everyone read and be literate. As long as they obtain a meritorious degree... they can avoid the death penalty when committing crimes and be reduced to a first-class crime..."

"What he said is so amazing. I suddenly want to know what kind of situation the big man will be like if he continues this method according to his method? Can everyone really have clothes to wear and everyone to have food? Want to eat?”

Having said this, Liu Xie sat down on the ground as if he was relieved, with a mixture of sadness and joy in his eyes, "Now it's okay, I can leave these most difficult things to the emperor, to you... I am just looking forward to it, waiting, Look at this new big man, what kind of city-state can you build? Even... In my spare time, I can do other things... This kind of free life is what I yearn for!"

Hear this…

Liu Bei handed over his hand again, "It seems that His Majesty has agreed to implement this new political system and form a cabinet..."

"Yes!" Liu Xie nodded heavily, and he felt even more relieved.

Liu Bei stood up. He looked at the once aloof emperor and asked in a gentle tone: "Then... you no longer have to control political power and military power, and you are no longer bound. What does your majesty... want to do?"

Liu Xie said with a smile, "I have been imprisoned for nearly twenty years. Once upon a time, I had nightmares every night. I could see nothing but fear! Now I am fine. I am free. As long as I am free, what can I do... Everyone is willing to do it... I heard that the official medical office established by Guan Lin is teaching people to learn medicine, and I also want to learn it... If in this life, I can save some patients and rescue them from the prison of the patient, That feeling...should be very special!”

Liu Bei looked at the emperor in front of him and suddenly felt very pity.

"Your Majesty, you can do whatever you want. If you want to study medicine, you can study medicine. If you want to treat patients, then treat patients... Even if your Majesty doesn't want to be in the palace, you can also go sightseeing. If you think it's good, you can settle down. For a period of time, if there is a ceremony that requires His Majesty to participate, the minister and the cabinet will send someone to pick up His Majesty..."

What Liu Bei said and what Liu Bei described was something that Liu Xie once longed for. He couldn't help but... burst into tears, "Uncle Liu Huang, thank you very much!"

Liu Bei leaned over and wiped away Liu Xie's tears, "Your Majesty, please remember that your Majesty will always be your Majesty, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, you will always enjoy the emperor's respect and worship, and you will always be a loyal person -"

Having said that...

Liu Bei stood up, bowed his hands to pay homage to the emperor again and again, then turned around and walked out of the hall with the same respectful steps.

For a moment, Liu Xie sat paralyzed in the empty palace, feeling relieved. After a while, a long roar that sounded like crying and laughing like "getting what he wanted" erupted——
