Chapter 517 Liu Xie named Xi Yu the King(1/2)

After returning to Luoyang, Liu Xie summoned many civil and military ministers.

The ministers did not know that they had left, but some major events were particularly good.

Speaking of which, what he, the emperor, did was very cowardly, could he do something big?

On that night, Liu Xie had a dream, and he participated in a ceremony by Xi Yu in the dream.

It turned out that Xi Yu was going to call himself the king. Since he currently lives in Youzhou, he called himself the king of Youzhou.

Many people also participated in his ceremony.

Among them were Liu Bei, Meng Huo, Zhang Lu and others, and Cao Pi and Sima Yi actually went with gifts.

The scene was particularly lively, which made Liu Xie very fascinated.

After Xi Yu finished the ceremony, he led everyone to salute Liu Xie.

Liu Xie originally thought he was an outsider, but unexpectedly everyone discovered it.

He quickly woke up from his dream. Liu Xie felt that his dream was particularly real, as if he had encountered it.

When the morning court was on the next morning, he told the civil and military ministers this dream, and the ministers looked at each other.

No one expected that Liu Xie would tell his dream.

Liu Xie summoned civil and military ministers to discuss the matter of rewarding Xi Yu as king, and the ministers were discussing it.

Some people think that Xi Yu has outstanding achievements and deserves to be crowned with the king; some people worry that Xi Yu's ambition will inflate and that the title of the king will encourage his arrogance.

The views of the two factions collided violently in the court.

The ministers who supported the title of king made generous speeches, listing Xi Yu's outstanding military achievements and outstanding contributions, and believing that he is fully qualified to be king.

A minister said excitedly: "Xi Yu is both wise and brave, and has been famous many times, and deserves a higher reward."

Another minister agreed: "Yes, Xi Yu not only has outstanding military achievements, but also has good governance of the local area and allows the people to live and work in peace and contentment. Such talents deserve to be called king."

However, the ministers who opposed the title of king pointed out Xi Yu's ambitions, worried that he would take the opportunity to expand his power and pose a threat to the stability and security of the Han Dynasty.

An older minister said worriedly: "Although Xi Yu has made contributions, his ambitions cannot be ignored. After he was crowned as king, his power will be greater and he may take the opportunity to expand his power."

Another minister added: "We cannot only see the military achievements in front of us, but also consider the long-term national interests. General Xi Yu's ambition has caused some people's concerns, and we cannot take the risk of making him king."

The two sides argued endlessly in the court, each with their own opinions, and the scene was very fierce.

Liu Xie silently listened to the views of both sides on the throne and fell into deep thought.

Liu Xie was in a dilemma, and he understood that the views of both factions made sense. He decided to put aside the dispute for the time being and let the ministers go back and think again.

"Since that's the case, then this matter will be put aside."

Liu Xie had no choice but to say that, but he was very unhappy.

After the morning court, when he returned to the bedroom, Liu Xie was still depressed.

The little eunuch who accompanied him to Youzhou, however: "Your Majesty, why do you have to do this? In fact, you just need to do this by yourself. Then do it, no matter what others say?"

Liu Xie was stunned. Can you still do this?

"Your Majesty, don't forget that you are Your Majesty, you have nothing to say."

Liu Xie felt that what he said was a little reasonable. Although he was like a puppet, he was also an emperor.

Yes, he must take out his power this time and must not let these people mercy.

It would be fine if a hero like Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao was merciless. What was going on?

"You said it well, thank you for your reminder. Now I will draw an imperial edict immediately."

Afterwards, Liu Xie immediately issued an imperial edict, named Xi Yu the King of Youzhou, and then asked the little eunuch to report the news quickly.

On the second day, Liu Xie told him about this matter, and the opposing ministers looked at each other.

It turned out that Liu Xie had already made a decision to make a one-man show.

Since that's the case, why do you still need to discuss it?

So some ministers began to dissuade him with great sincerity: "Your Majesty, it's a bit inappropriate to do this. You should think carefully."

"What else am I thinking about? I have issued an imperial edict."

The minister sighed.

Since that's the case, nothing you say is useless.

Moreover, today, many people see that Liu Xiehe is a little different in normal times, and he seems to be particularly majestic.

The little eunuch took the imperial edict and hurried to set off.

On the way, he guarded the imperial edict, fearing that something would happen.

He naturally understood that the world was about to be a joke sooner or later, and Liu Xie was probably the last emperor of the Han family.

Thinking of this, he felt very sad.

So when he was in the inn, he felt very sad while eating.

The waiter also felt inexplicably and didn't know what was going on with him.

On the other hand, Xi Yu entered a crazy state of training.

He had no idea that Liu Xie valued him so much and actually made him king.

Because I also held a crazy meeting and everyone disagreed, the matter was slowly put on hold.

A few days later, the little eunuch came to Youzhou City Gate. This time the soldiers dared not refuse to let go because he came with the imperial edict.

The little eunuch entered the Western Prefecture.

Xi Yu and his elder brother Xi Zhicai were playing chess, and the two were particularly quiet at this moment.

Their hearts were also very quiet. Heat was emitted from the Boshan stove next to them, and there was a pot of flowers in front of the window, which looked so beautiful.

Suddenly, a soldier broke the silence because it was a little eunuch who came to read the imperial edict.

Xi Yu was shocked. What imperial edict did His Majesty the Emperor give him?

Seeing that it was the last time the little eunuch said a few polite words, then quickly knelt down with Xi Zhi.

The content of the imperial edict actually made Xi Yu become king, which surprised Xi Yu.

"My father-in-law is a little inappropriate, what can I do?"

"Xi Zhi, oh, no, you should be called King Youzhou. You are polite. Your Majesty values ​​you so much, and you have outstanding abilities in yourself."

Xi Yu was secretly happy and was a little polite.

"That's all your Majesty is loving. In fact, I still have many shortcomings."

He finally thanked him and took the imperial edict.

Then, he asked the little eunuch to broadband.

The little eunuch said that he had to go back to work, so Xi Yu pulled his arm.

"I don't think you haven't lived here at this time. You'll stay here tonight."

The little eunuch thought to himself that the emperor did not tell him that he had to leave immediately. Since that is the case, then stay.

Anyway, he is always happy to be with Xi Yu.

Xi Zhicai immediately bowed to Xi Yu.

"Congratulations to my brother."

"Brother, what are you doing? Why should we be so polite among our brothers?"

He immediately supported the other person's arm.

"Brother is mainly so happy, which shows that Your Majesty values ​​you very much."

Xi Zhicai’s analysis is very reasonable. It can be said that now His Majesty supports Xi Yu in doing what he wants to do.

Because Liu Xie also knew that his momentum had been exhausted and he needed a new star now, the key is that Liu Bei had promised his constitutional monarchy and would not put himself to death.

But if it were Cao Pi, it would be different. Cao Pi would definitely deal with himself, at least not good to him.

Xi Yu held a meeting in the mansion, and he read the content of the imperial edict to everyone with a serious expression. Xi Yu's voice echoed in the hall, and everyone's eyes were focused on him.

"This time it's not a question of whether I am willing to be king or not, but the emperor insists on appointing me as king." Xi Yu's words caused an uproar and everyone began to whisper.

Some people showed joy and thought this was the glory that Xi Yu deserved.

These news soon spread throughout Youzhou.

People were talking about the streets and alleys, expressing their views on the fact that Xi Yu was king. Some people believe that Xi Yu was a great military achievement and deserved to be king.

In the teahouse in Youzhou, people had a heated discussion about Xi Yu's claim to be king.

An old man took a sip of tea slowly and said, "Xi Yu has made a lot of contributions to our Youzhou. If he becomes king, he will definitely make our Youzhou more prosperous." People around him nodded in agreement.

The emperor's decision was considered very wise.

After Cao Pi learned that Xi Yu was named king by the emperor, his anger gushed out like a volcano.
