Three Kingdoms: Shocked, my father-in-law is Cao Cao!

Chapter 24: The 1st Army Against the General

Thinking that Liu Bei was going to be framed, or to put it bluntly, killed, Jiang Zhe was full of thoughts.

Occasionally, if you glance at Liu Bei casually, you can get a big man version of a professional smile.

——Good guy, you really don't know how to die when you are about to die, but I still sincerely hope that you can survive with your smile that matches mine.

Patting his face to cheer himself up, Jiang Zhe got up and went into the hall to listen to the announcement.

What surprised him was that he actually entered the hall in front of Liu Bei. Could it be that he wanted to witness a story that already knew the ending?

——It's cruel and pathetic.

Kneeling in this small court hall, listening to a regular attendant read out his award, according to common sense, this should be a happy moment, but Jiang Zhe vaguely felt a sense of uneasiness.

After the award was over, Jiang Zhe got the official position of "Yumen" county lieutenant. To put it bluntly, he was the captain of the security team of Yumen County.

Judging from the reaction of the hundred officials to this official position, things may not be that simple.

These ministers either lamented or ridiculed, not looking serious at all.

——The spring breeze does not pass through the Yumen Pass...

Jiang Zhe finally remembered why this name was so familiar.

Back among the hundred officials, Jiang Zhe looked left and right, and found that Xun Yu was beside me.

"Hey, Sima, this Yumen County is not closed at Yumen, is it?"

Xun Yu deliberately lowered his voice, "The county captain is worthy of being a virtuous person. This Yumen Pass is located in Yumen County, which is originally a treasure land of the Han Dynasty, guarding the critical pass of the western border."

Hearing this, the Yumen county lieutenant is still an official position more important than his own position, but Jiang Zhe couldn't be happy at all, the Western Regions... is an extremely remote place for commuters in this era.

If there is no order to stay away from the Central Plains this time, I am afraid that I will be buried directly in this life.

"Then, please trouble Sima to tell me when I should take up my post?" Jiang Zhe now only hoped that the sooner the better.

He can still have time to prepare, or simply pat his ass and run away, and seek refuge with Liu Zhang, Liu Biao, and Sun Shiwan are not bad.

Xun Yu only thought this question was funny, and he held back his smile for a while before opening his mouth.

"Lieutenant Jiang County, your Yumen Pass and Yumen County are both in the hands of Wuhuan Xianbei!"

Jiang Zhe was taken aback.

——Hey, it's all because I was distracted by thinking about Liu Bei just now, why did I forget that there is no river in the current Han Dynasty?Since there is no Hetao, why not guard the Western Regions.

The hanging heart finally settled down, but he also knew why those officials were laughing just now, his fief was actually in Wuhuan's hands, and no one wanted to laugh.

I also heard Xun Yu say: "This position has more salary than the same level in the mainland, a full four hundred shi."

Jiang Zhe thought to himself, this is a idle job that only takes money?However, in a sense, this treatment is still extremely bad.

While talking, several people listened to Feng Xie'en, and finally there was only one person left outside the store——Liu Bei.

Chang Shi's shrill voice read out the memorial, which was not like the ones I saw before, but it seemed particularly long, and it must have been filled with words.

"Liu Bei, the shepherd of Yuzhou, made great contributions to suppressing the Yellow Turban in the early years... and now he has made another great contribution to assisting in the destruction of Lu. I remember your sincerity. Both old and new contributions will reward Liu Bei as Sima of another department."

Good guy, a lengthy official document directly narrates Liu Bei's first half of his life, and the call-up position that was originally at the bottom is actually the same as the finale.

Jiang Zhe thought for a while.

——This operation is okay. Not only did it tell the emperor of the Cao family that he did not intend to use Liu to control Cao, but also because of this finale-like operation, it also told all civil and military officials that the emperor still valued capable clansmen.

Of course, this kind of emphasis will not be the kind of "valuation" that Cao Cao doesn't want to see.

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xie looked around the court for a week, and his eyes fell on an old servant beside him.

"You go to Taimiao Zangshu Pavilion and invite the family tree. I have heard that Liu Aiqing is the king of Zhongshan County. Today I will personally check the family tree."

Liu Bei kowtowed: "Sir, I am sincere and fearful!"

During the time to get the family tree, the atmosphere in the court hall was extremely oppressive, and several forces in invisible places had been fighting for this moment for a long time.

In fact, Dong Cheng's spies in Cao's army had already truthfully reported Liu Bei's every move to the emperor's desk.

It is true that Liu Bei is a clan member of the Han Dynasty, which is great news.

Today, the many officials of the Cao family are rewarded to stop the mouths of the Cao family and the hundreds of officials, to seek greater power for Liu Bei in the future, and then to check and balance Cao Cao and even to pave the way for the restoration of the centralized power of the Han Dynasty.

How could Cao Cao not see this kind of clever strategy?So Xun Yu's strategy should work now.

"Your Majesty, if you prove Liu Sima's integrity, how dare you ask Your Majesty what kind of reward you plan to give him?"

The person who said this was Cao Cao. Although he already believed that Liu Bei must die, the answer to this question can directly determine what kind of medicine is sold in Liu Xie's gourd.

Cao Cao thought to himself, if the little emperor's answer is that he is a local official with real power, he will clean up the inside and outside of the palace after beheading Liu Bei, confiscate the emperor's remaining military power, and replace all the attendants and a kind of cronies with his own people.

"This... is still considered by the prime minister. I just want to wait for Liu Aiqing to verify that she is giving the corresponding status."

——Hey, it’s okay, it’s okay, I almost fell into the trap of Cao Cao, but luckily I know the details.

After getting this worthless answer, Cao Cao wanted to say something else.

"Genealogy...arrived!"

It's better to come early than to come early. From the breath of the old waiter, we can see that he came and went in a hurry.

"Quickly read!"

The old waiter passed the tray to others, took out a volume of genealogy and read it out, it seemed that he was already familiar with it.

"Emperor Xiaojing had fourteen sons, and the seventh son was King Jing of Zhongshan Liu Sheng.

"Liu Sheng gave birth to Lucheng Hou Liu Zhen, Liu Zhen gave birth to Pei Hou Liu Ang, Liu Ang gave birth to Zhang Hou Liu Lu, Liu Lu gave birth to Qi Hou Liu Lian..."

From the genealogy to the period of Emperor Huanling, Jiang Zhe felt uneasy and even felt a strange and indescribable aura permeating the air.

Cao Cao sat at the head of the hundred officials, and sat opposite Dong Cheng. At this time, the two looked at each other with a trace of belief in victory.

——Prime Minister, this time you and other traitors will be defeated!

——Uncle Guo, this time you wait for the dilapidated household to lose!

Suddenly, the old waiter's face turned pale and his voice trembled slightly.

Logically speaking, Liu Bei's name should be on this volume, but let alone him now, even his father Liu Hong is gone.

Liu Xie noticed something strange, and kept scanning the side from the corner of his eye. Beads of sweat dripped from the old waiter's forehead.

Although Dong Cheng didn't understand what happened, his years of experience in various forces as an official told him that this was not something that was beneficial to him.

A cunning flashed in Cao Cao's eyes, and he wanted to get up and question the old waiter.

Liu Bei knelt on the ground, and for some reason, he almost fainted in front of his eyes.

With a sound of "Plop", Liu Bei woke up with a start, almost passing out.

Jiang Zhe at the side couldn't help sweating for him, but fortunately he didn't fall down, otherwise the uncle would lose face if he couldn't do it.
