"Don't you know, Ziyu? It has been spread all over Chengdu that Cao Pi's brother killed the king to seize the throne." Zhang Fei's face was full of curiosity, thinking, aren't you good at intelligence?
Zhuge Liang stroked his beard and added: "There are rumors from all over Shu that Emperor Dao was killed in Xudu. The king had mourned him a few days ago and gave him the posthumous title of Emperor Xiaomin."
"Recently, officials from all over the country have been vying to offer their honors, and they all persuade me to inherit the Han family's ancestral temple and use the honorary title. Of course, there are also some ministers who can't do so for the time being..." Liu Bei's expression was quite solemn.
Lantian knew that this person must be Fei Shi, because it was recorded in the history books that he was the envoy sent to Jingzhou to deliver the edict when Liu Bei became the king of Hanzhong. It is said that all officials in Liu Bei's reign can receive rewards. As a member of the shogunate, he The Sima in the front department would definitely be promoted, but at this time he could withstand the pressure and give impartial advice. Lan Tian admired this retrograde spirit.
"Fei Gongju (Fei Shi) doesn't know what's good and what's good. Now that the Emperor of the Han Dynasty has passed away, my eldest brother, as the head of the imperial family, deserves to be the successor to the throne. Instead of talking nonsense in the court, it's better to transfer him from Shu County to Go to the border area." Zhang Fei said angrily.
"Why didn't Ziyu say anything?" Liu Bei looked confused.
Judging from Zhang Fei's tone just now, it seems that Liu Bei has not demoted Fei Shi yet. The King of Hanzhong in this plane has a much better mentality than the one in history.
"What does the unknown king mean?" Lan Tian asked meaningfully.
Liu Bei shook his head and replied: "All the ministers are trying to persuade me to come in, but some people don't agree. Bei really can't make up his mind. Since Ziyu happened to come to Chengdu, he has to help Gu settle down." At this time, Zhang Si
Lan Tian was startled when he heard this. Isn't that why he asked me to join Shu? Could it be that there were other important things that could not be accomplished, so he curiously asked: "Is it not because the king called me to Chengdu to discuss the matter of proclaiming himself emperor?"
Liu Bei shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The queen asked Gu to summon you to Sichuan. The news of Cao Pi's regicide was received only after Ji Bo left, so it is a coincidence. Ziyu's nine-character mantra of 'Build walls high, store grain widely, and slowly become king' , I still remember it freshly now, I wonder what I have to say now?"
Lan Tian stroked his beard and thought for a while, then replied: "What I mean... Your Majesty can proclaim himself emperor at this time, but he can also take it slow..."
"Huh? Did I misunderstand? Ziyu said this, but it seems he didn't say..." Zhang Fei scratched his head in confusion.
"Third brother, please don't interrupt. Ziyu is a wise man and must have his own ideas. Please help me solve the mystery." Liu Bei frowned. When he asked Zhuge Liang before, the other party was also so ambiguous. He didn't expect Lantian to be the same today. In this way, he must break the casserole and ask the truth.
Lantian replied with a smile: "Cao Pi proclaimed himself emperor on behalf of the Han Dynasty. There are rumors in Shu that the emperor was killed, and the king also gave him a posthumous title. This is understandable, but what can he do if the emperor is still alive?"
"What's there to say? By then it's done. My eldest brother has ascended the throne and became the emperor. I don't believe Liu Xie still dares to come and seize the throne." Zhang Fei clenched his fists.
Lan Tian shook his head and said: "Liu Xie is a puppet of the Cao family. The Han family has long existed in name only. However, if Liu Xie had survived, he would easily be criticized if he rashly proclaimed himself emperor. Now that the world is divided into three parts, it is time to slowly become the king. These three words are no longer useful. If we cannot aspire to the Central Plains in a short time, then it will be the same as proclaiming emperor early or proclaiming emperor later. It will just be a corner to continue the Han family ancestral temple."
"Bei is determined to help the Han Dynasty. The current situation in the world is good. It is only a matter of time before he can conquer the Central Plains. Does Ziyu mean to wait a little longer?" Liu Bei frowned.
"The king is only one step away from the prince. If we can capture Chang'an or Luoyang, then he will be honored with the title in a victory manner, which will surely convince the people of the world. However, it is okay for the king to proclaim himself emperor at this time, but in the eyes of historians I have insufficient legal principles and will easily be criticized by future generations. No matter what decision my brother-in-law makes, I will fully support him." Lan Tian clasped his fists sonorously.
"Me too." Zhang Fei instinctively stood up with his fists clasped. Hearing Lan Tian's heroic assurance, he couldn't help but stand up and agree.
"Prime Minister, what do you think?" Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang with a smile. ,
"As long as we recuperate for a few years and Yizhou and Jingzhou have sufficient money and grain reserves, the Northern Expedition will definitely be unfavorable. Proclaiming the emperor in the old capital can better demonstrate the destiny. However, the time to proclaim the emperor is not bad now, and the emperor is very likely to be harmed. , I agree with Ziyu, sooner or later I have to ask your Majesty to make a decision on becoming emperor."
Zhuge Liang originally did not dare to speak out clearly, because Fei Shi was a lesson learned from the past. Although he has not been demoted or moved to an official position, Liu Bei no longer pays attention to him. Now that Lan Tian has said what the officials dare not say, it depends on what Liu Bei will do after weighing the pros and cons. Choice, because Liu Bei's proclaimed emperor will have little impact on his officials, but it will lay a stain on Liu Bei's final succession to the throne.
"Then let's wait a while and find out whether the emperor is alive or dead before we talk about it." Liu Bei made up his mind with a serious face, and then told Zhuge Liang: "There are many ministers in the court who come to persuade them to come in every day. Prime Minister, please comfort them first. Do you still remember? Ziyu once said something that is very relevant today."
"What are you talking about?" Zhang Fei's face was full of question marks.
"Don't be afraid of being late for a good meal." Liu Bei nodded slightly.
"Succinct and to the point, that's indeed the truth." Zhuge Liang looked at Lan Tian in agreement.
Lantian responded with a smile: "I can't guarantee anything else. I have no doubt that the king will regain the Central Plains and set the world."
"Ziyu's words have never been inaccurate, and I believe there will be one day." Liu Bei gently hammered the stone table.
"Your Majesty, please relax. I think that day won't be long. When the world is settled and China is unified, I will accompany you to Mount Tai to pay tribute to the world." Lantian looked solemn.
"Go, go, I'll go when the time comes." Zhang Fei happily agreed.
Zhuge Liang was obviously surprised after hearing this. Before this, there were only three people who were granted Zen status in Mount Tai, namely Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng, Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty Liu Che and Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty Liu Xiu. If Liu Bei became the fourth person to be granted Zen status, he would get more glory than being an emperor. high.
Liu Bei secretly swallowed his saliva and asked tentatively: "The enthronement of Mount Tai is no small matter. An emperor without great merits may be ridiculed by the world. Is Ziyu kidding?"
"Emperor Wu created the prosperous age of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu revitalized the Han Dynasty, the king turned the tide when the Han Dynasty was in turmoil, and helped the edifice fall into danger. If the king feels that this achievement is not enough, how about completely conquering the four barbarians and creating a prosperous age for all nations to come to court. ?" Lan Tian showed a row of white teeth.
"It makes my blood boil. Ziyu, you must keep your word." Zhang Fei muttered. Control the big one, control the owl
Lan Tiankou was like a river. Liu Bei felt very far away after hearing this, but he still smiled and said: "Ziyu is really good at talking and talking. No wonder he can take the lead in negotiating with Jiangdong. Ziyu is in good health and in his prime. I believe that even if his life span is I can’t see the day when you will be able to climb Mount Tai with A Dou.”
