Chapter 448
After drinking for three rounds, Liu Bei got up and said, "Thank you, Prime Minister, for your hospitality. If you bother me immediately, it's time for us three brothers to say goodbye."

After Liu Bei finished speaking, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also stood up.

"Do the three of you have a residence in Luoyang?" Fang Wen asked.

"Ashamed, the three of my brothers can only live in the inn." Liu Bei said.

"I have an empty house, why don't I give it to three heroes."

There are many empty houses in Fang Wen's hands.Not to mention the ones he bought with porridge before, but the houses of the rich and officials that he has confiscated recently, there are quite a few.

Fang Wen thought about distributing these houses to the people in the city so that they could have a home.This can be regarded as getting Luoyang City on the right track.

"How does this happen?" Liu Bei would not easily accept Fang Wen's house.

After all, Fang Wen is now the prime minister, so if Fang Wen gives Liu Bei a house, it is a reward.

And receiving Fang Wen's reward is equivalent to Liu Bei recognizing Fang Wen as the master.

How could Liu Bei recognize Fang Wen as the master?

"Maybe the hero thinks that my empty house is uncomfortable. If that's the case, then don't force it." Fang Wen said.

"Then I'll take my leave." Liu Bei said and turned to leave.

"What orders does the Prime Minister have?" Liu Bei asked.

"The three heroes want to live in the inn, so will there be money?" Fang Wen asked.

"This~" Liu Bei has no gold, he just plans to sleep on the street.

Fang Wen came to Liu Bei and handed an ingot of gold to Liu Bei, saying, "I will give this gold to the hero. The three of you must be subordinates."

Liu Bei really needed the money at this time, so he didn't refuse, "Then Liu Bei has the audacity to serve him."

At this time, Fang Wen said again, "Chao Xuande can come to my house tomorrow morning. I will take you to meet the Holy One. You are a relative of the emperor. How can you not even visit His Majesty?"

Hearing Fang Wen said that he would recommend him to meet the Holy Majesty, Liu Bei was excited.As long as he meets the Holy Majesty, his identity will be justified.

"Then thank you, Prime Minister." Liu Bei bowed excitedly.

When Liu Bei turned to leave, Zhang Fei said again, "Prime Minister, what about the wine you promised to give me Lao Zhang? Don't break your promise."

"It's on the carriage outside, ready for the three of you." Fang Wen said.

"Haha." Zhang Fei smiled, "Then thank you, Prime Minister, and leave."

Afterwards, Liu Bei and the three left.

Seeing the three of Liu Bei leave the mansion, Cai Yan came over and asked, "Why is my husband so kind to the three of them? Do you want to take these three for your own use? Then why not contract them directly?"

Cai Yan was very puzzled.

Fang Wen shook his head and said, "I never thought of taking them for my own use."

"Then this is my husband?" Cai Yan was even more puzzled.

"I just simply want to chat with them." Fang Wen said.

"Then why treat them so well." Cai Yan was puzzled, isn't this Fang Wen's style?
"Because they will be our future enemies." Fang Wen said.

"Enemy?" Now Cai Yan didn't understand even more. Since they were enemies, why didn't they get rid of them?
Fang Wen knew what Cai Yan was thinking, so he said, "Although they will be my enemies, they will help me. So I will let them live until he can help me."

Cai Yan really didn't understand what Fang Wen meant.However, since Fang Wen said so, there is a reason for Fang Wen.Cai Yan will always support Fang Wen's decision.

The next day, Fang Wen took Liu Bei to the court to meet Liu Xie.

Fang Wen went straight into the hall, while Liu Bei took off his shoes and handed the sword to the eunuch.Moreover, he didn't dare to enter the hall directly, so he could only kneel in front of the court hall, waiting for Liu Xie to summon him.

He has no reputation now, and it was impossible to meet Liu Xie in the first place. If Fang Wen brought him to meet Liu Xie, he would not even have the qualifications to kneel there and wait.

Soon, Liu Bei heard the eunuch's voice.

"Xuan Liu Xuande has an audience~"

Liu Bei hurriedly got up, lowered his head, and quickly entered the court hall.

Liu Bei only dared to raise his head and cast a glance at the high platform, only to see Liu Xie, who was about ten years old, sitting there with Fang Wen sitting beside him.

"My minister Liu Bei kowtows to Your Majesty." Liu Bei knelt down on the ground again as he spoke.

Fang Wen looked at Liu Bei who was kneeling there, and felt amused.So what if Liu Bei has great ambitions in his heart?Can't you kneel and kowtow when you meet Liu Xie?Who dares to dance a sword in front of Liu Xie with a commoner body like him, blood spattering five steps?
Liu Xie looked at Liu Bei, and asked in a childish voice, "May I ask where Liu Aiqing was from?"

Since Fang Wen didn't blame Liu Xie when Liu Xie asked Wang Yun to return to his hometown last time, Liu Xie has become much bolder and dared to say this to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei, who was kneeling there, was very excited when he heard Liu Xie asked about his background.He knew his time had come.As long as Liu Xie recognizes his identity as a clan member of the Han Dynasty, who will dare to question his identity as a clan member of the Han Dynasty?
I only heard Liu Bei say, "I am the great-great-grandson of Emperor Xiaojing, the grandson of my grandfather Liu Xiong, and the son of my father Liu Hong, after King Jing of Zhongshan."

Liu Xie was very excited when he heard what Liu Bei said.In this way, Liu Bei is not his relative.

He has been controlled by Dong Zhuo for so many years, and now he is controlled by Fang Wen, which can be said to be frightening.Seeing Liu Bei's relative now, it's really raining after a long drought!

"So, you are my royal relative. According to your seniority, I should call you the emperor's uncle." Liu Xie was also very excited.

After hearing this, Fang Wen said quickly, "Your Majesty, how can you be so hasty about recognizing the royal family?"

Fang Wen didn't intend to embarrass Liu Bei, but since Liu Bei said that he was a relative of the emperor, he should boldly verify it, so as to dispel the doubts in the minds of those ministers.

Liu Xie was taken aback when he heard Fang Wen say this, thinking that Fang Wen was blaming him for talking too much.

"What the prime minister said is true." Liu Xie said reassuringly, "Then what does the prime minister think?"

Fang Wen smiled, and secretly sighed in his heart that Liu Xie was really immature, and he would have to wait another ten years for him to write the edict.

"Since this Liu Bei is a member of His Majesty's royal family, let's use the royal genealogy to verify and verify Liu Bei's body. Only then can we determine that Liu Bei in front of us is a member of the royal family." Fang Wen said.

"What the prime minister said is, get the genealogy of the royal family quickly." Liu Xie said quickly.

Soon, someone brought the genealogy of the royal family to the hall. After some verification, Liu Bei was indeed a member of the royal family.

It's just that whether the Liu Bei mentioned in the file is the Liu Bei in front of him is still unknown.It is still necessary to verify his integrity to know whether Liu Bei in front of him is really a member of the royal family.

"I don't know how the prime minister thinks he should verify his integrity?" Liu Xie asked.

"For this, you only need to go to Zhuo County, Zhuo County, Liu Bei's hometown, and find the local dibao, and you will be able to verify your integrity." Fang Wen said.

"When will the verification be successful?" Liu Xie said.

"Your Majesty, the matter of the emperor's relatives is very involved. Don't pretend to be false! Even if it takes a little longer, it is worth it." Fang Wen said.
