As soon as Xu Shu said these words, the hall fell into complete silence.
There were nearly a hundred people up and down, but not a single sound was made.
Liu Xie was dumbfounded and the ministers were shocked.
Except for the person involved, Cao Cao, and the initiator, Xu Shu, everyone was dumbfounded and looked shocked.
Even Mao Jie, who had asked for credit for Cao Cao before, froze in place.
He wanted to take credit for Cao Cao, but he never thought of directly making Cao Cao king!
Cao Cao had long known what Xu Shu wanted to say, but when he actually came to the scene and heard the words "King of Wei", he still couldn't help but hold his breath with excitement.
Wangjue, that is the highest title under the emperor.
In other words, how can one be promoted to the throne without the title of king?
Regardless of whether Cao Cao will eventually proclaim himself emperor, at least Wang Jue has opened this door for him!
In the main hall, the first person to wake up from the shock was Liu Xie, the emperor.
Liu Xie looked at Cao Cao and Xu Shu, and finally discovered something.
Immediately, a burst of anger rushed straight to the door.
understood!
Liu Xie understands everything!
No wonder Cao Cao was shouting here desperately, as if he would not give up until Liu Zhang was granted the title of king!
It turns out that the two of them have been in cahoots with each other for a long time!
Liu Xie did not expect that Liu Zhang, who had the blood of the great ancestor and a pure lineage in the Han Dynasty, would actually collude with Cao Cao, a notorious eunuch!
At this moment Liu Xie also understood.
All the labels of Liu Zhang, King of Qin, include being a clan member of the Han Dynasty, a pillar of the country, and a great man of loyalty.
What a joke!
From beginning to end, Liu Zhang was the same as Cao Cao.
The two of them are no longer thinking about their throne all the time!
Liu Xie kept cursing himself for being stupid for once thinking that Liu Zhang was a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, the hope of reviving the Han Dynasty, and his destined savior!
Now the answer is self-evident. Liu Zhang is not a savior, but a ghost who sends Liu Xie to an early death!
I'm afraid it won't be long before Liu Zhang has to persuade Cao Cao to proclaim himself emperor, and then he can establish himself as emperor!
"Xu Yuanzhi!"
At this moment, an angry voice exploded in the hall.
The minister ordered Xun Yu to finally be unable to hold on any longer and ran directly to Xu Shu with eyes wide open.
"Xu Yuanzhi, you treacherous villain, don't try to harm Prime Minister Cao!"
Xu Shu had already discussed the affairs of the court with Liu Zhang and others, and understood that the biggest obstacle was Shangshu Ling Xun Yu and the Yingchuan family headed by him.
Therefore, Xu Shu can be said to have been prepared for what Xun Yu did.
He calmly bowed his hands and saluted.
"I pay my respects to Mr. Xun Ling."
"Stop it!"
Xun Yu didn't accept this trick at all, and his burning eyes wished he could burn Xu Shu into ashes.
"Xu Yuanzhi, I can't control your master's infidelity and unfilial piety, but if you want to harm Prime Minister Cao, there is no way out!"
"As long as I, Xun Yu, am here, your treacherous plot will never succeed!"
After Xun Yu cursed excitedly, he first looked at Cao Cao with his hands raised, then saluted Liu Xie again and gave him a calm look.
Liu Xie finally breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw Xun Yu standing up for him.
Xun Yu has great influence in Xuchang. If he can resist desperately, the outcome is still unknown!
Judging from Xun Yu's reaction just now, Liu Xie could see his determination.
But when Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief, Cao Cao would definitely breath a sigh of relief.
How could there be no reaction when the road to becoming king was cut off?
"Xun Lingjun, you can speak frankly."
Seeing Cao Cao's expression of neither joy nor sorrow, Xun Yu felt a thump in his heart.
He could already tell that Cao Cao was moved.
But Xun Yu couldn't compromise on this, this was his final bottom line!
"Since the prime minister raised the army, he has always upheld the way of heaven, understood the righteousness, and has always taken it as his own duty to help the Han Dynasty!"
"Upholding the will of loyalty and abiding by the principle of humility and retreat, the Prime Minister has never had any arrogant behavior or thoughts!"
When Xun Yu opened his mouth, he elevated Cao Cao to the highest moral level and made his attitude clear.
No matter how people in the world evaluate Cao Cao, I, Xun Yu, believe that Cao Cao is a loyal minister and an indispensable loyalty to the revival of the Han Dynasty!
At the same time, he also told Cao Cao in a subtle way.
I, Xun Yu, have such high expectations for you, and you will never let me down!
As Xun Yu expected, Cao Cao remained silent.
Although no thoughts were expressed, no rebuttal was offered.
If there is no objection, it means agreement. If this is the rule since ancient times!
"Xun Lingjun's words are very close to my heart!"
Liu Xie was different from Cao Cao. He was so excited that he almost jumped up.
Not giving Cao Cao the title of king would be more satisfying than being the emperor!
Xun Yu ignored Liu Xie and turned to glare at Xu Shu again.
"Gaozu has already said it before, no one without the Liu family can claim the throne! I can't stop you from seeking the throne for Liu Zhang."
"But if you push the Prime Minister to the position of King Wei, above all the ministers and on the side of the Emperor! This will surely lead to criticism from all the subjects in the world! The Prime Minister's reputation will be ruined in one day!"
"I, Xun Yu, am both a Han official and a subordinate of the Prime Minister. How can I let your treacherous plan succeed and put the Prime Minister in an unkind, unjust, unfaithful and unfilial position!"
Xu Shu's face was extremely calm. As Xun Yu glared, the corners of his mouth gradually rose, revealing a smile.
"Xun Lingjun, there is no need to be so angry!"
Xu Shu slightly cupped his hands and relaxed the atmosphere with a relaxed smile.
"Prime Minister Cao's ascension to the throne is just a suggestion from King Qin to His Majesty."
"Nowadays, we are in troubled times, and troubled times require the use of important laws. If we continue to stand on our own laurels and stick to the rules, we will inevitably lose the popularity of the world!"
"Although most of the world has been pacified, Sun Quan and Liu Bei are still ruling the roost in the southeast, trying to usurp the Han Dynasty! Only by being crowned king can we demonstrate His Majesty's divine power and wipe out the rebels in one fell swoop!"
Xun Yu pointed angrily at Xu Shu, not even listening to his nonsense.
"Shut up, Xu Yuanzhi! Stop talking nonsense here!"
Xu Shu still smiled, without the slightest hint of displeasure.
"Xun Lingjun, I just said that this is just a suggestion from King Qin!"
"As for how you and Your Majesty decide, this is not within the consideration of King Qin and your concubine!"
"If the ministers object, your majesty will not grant it, and the prime minister will not ask for it! Haha... then what does it have to do with the common people?"
After Xu Shu finished speaking, he gave Cao Cao a slightly meaningful look.
It seems to be saying, Prime Minister Cao, I tried my best!
As for whether you can take a big step forward, it's up to you!
Xun Yu couldn't see through Xu Shu's little moves, so he sneered several times.
"Xu Shu, don't waste your efforts!"
"The Prime Minister is undoubtedly loyal to the Han Dynasty and will never do such a thing that is outrageous to both humans and gods!"
Xu Shu nodded slightly, without any intention of arguing with Xun Yu.
He has already thrown out the introduction. As for whether Cao Cao can use it and whether there is anyone under Cao Cao to support it, that is not something Xu Shu can control.
In other words, if Cao Cao misunderstood that no one supported him, would it be possible for Cao Cao to sit on the throne of King Wei?
"Mr.
"Since Prime Minister Cao is unwilling to ascend the throne as King of Wei, there is no reason for me to force him!"
"Everything depends on Xun Lingjun's orders!"
After hearing that Xu Shu had given up, Liu Xie was so happy that he almost jumped up to celebrate.
This time, it is undoubtedly the victory of the imperial power of the Han Dynasty and the authority of the emperor!
