"How is it? Are you satisfied with my gift?"
Emperor Jiajing looked at Fan Li with interest, the smile still on his face.
satisfy?
This insulting gift is comparable to sending away a beggar.
If the strength gap between the two sides wasn't too big, Fan Lizhen wouldn't mind picking him to death with one sword!
Emperor Jiajing, who was sitting on a futon, didn't care what Fan Li thought at all. In other words, he believed that Fan Li's surrender to the Ming Dynasty today was a certainty.
"Unifying the world is just a small goal of mine. Within a hundred years, I will transcend the tribulation and ascend, and then I will pass the throne to the prince. You are still young, and as long as you serve the new king well, you may have a chance to become the chief minister of the Ming Dynasty. "
Emperor Jiajing was talking to himself, as if he had the overall situation under control.
Fan Li almost wanted to laugh when he heard this!
Good guy, how bad can my treatment in Daming be?
After surrender, does it count as just being at the bottom of the cabinet? It turns out that in the entire Jiajing Dynasty, he will never be the chief minister?
ox!
Jiajing is so awesome!
This is a reverse negotiation expert!
Fan Li had always been worried that Lu Chunqiu would be recruited by the Ming Dynasty, but looking at Emperor Jiajing's virtue, his worries seemed to be unnecessary.
While he was complaining about Emperor Jiajing, Zhang Juzheng, who was guarding outside the palace, suddenly came in and reported to Emperor Jiajing.
"Your Majesty, Han Zuo General Liu Bei, Hussar General Sun Quan, and Sikong Cao Cao have been invited."
Fan Li was shocked!
Does Emperor Jiajing have such a big appetite?
Not only do you want to recruit yourself, but you also want to recruit the officials of the Han Dynasty?
And it's in Lucheng?
Extremely arrogant!
I really don’t take Liu Xie and Xiang Ning seriously at all!
A series of steady footsteps came, and then three figures stood on the right side behind Fan Li.
Cao, Liu, and Sun were also surprised when they saw Fan Li!
They were very self-aware and did not stand side by side with Fan Li. Instead, they kept a step away and stood behind Fan Li to show their respect for this powerful official of Chu.
"Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Sun Quan?"
It is very impolite to call someone by their first name.
But given the identity of Emperor Jiajing, it seems reasonable and reasonable.
"I have met His Majesty the Ming Emperor." The three of them bowed and saluted, but did not kneel down.
When Emperor Jiajing saw this, he frowned slightly and showed displeasure.
He could allow Fan Li not to kneel, because Fan Li was the actual person in power in Da Chu after all, and even Emperor Jiajing was willing to skip the ceremony to show respect.
As for the three people in front of me, although they are all high-ranking officials in the Han Dynasty, their power is actually very limited!
Emperor Jiajing originally planned to recruit Dong Zhuo, but Dong Zhuo did not go with the Han Emperor.
The next best thing was that these three people were also well-known, so Jiajing was reluctantly willing to recruit them.
Jiajing felt that it was very disobedient for the three of them not to kneel down even though he was so kind to him.
He was a little tired of Cao, Liu and Sun, so he could only patiently say: "If you return to the Ming Dynasty today, I will grant you the title. Cao Cao will be granted the title of Minghou, Liu Bei will be granted the title of Shuntianhou, and Sun Quan will be granted the title of Zhiminghou. As for the actual appointment of official positions, I will wait for you. Think about it again.”
Return to fate?
Know your destiny?
Suncheon?
Fan Li almost laughed out loud when he heard the names of these three marquises.
Whenever Cao Liusun wanted to show off, he would definitely refuse Emperor Jiajing's solicitation.
really!
All three of them are extraordinary!
The slightly awe-inspiring expressions on their faces disappeared in an instant, leaving only the hero's unyielding anger in the face of adversity!
Cao Cao, the oldest among the three, was the first to speak.
"Your Majesty, you have made a mistake. The three of us are Han ministers. We have been living on Han stipends for generations. We will serve the Han Emperor all our lives and will never abandon him. How can we abandon our old master and join the new emperor?"
Jiajing was stunned for a moment, but he was not angry. He just asked: "With the strength of our Ming Dynasty, if we attack the Han Dynasty, are you going to fight stubbornly and be buried with the Han Emperor?"
Liu Bei stood up and replied: "A real man should act openly and aboveboard in troubled times. Even if he is in adversity, he should bow down to his duty and wait for the good times!"
Jiajing asked again: "I have never seen Emperor Han. What kind of ruler is he?"
Sun Quan stepped out and replied: "He is a wise, benevolent, and strategic lord."
Jiajing laughed!
The laughter is like the roar of a dragon, as if it can rush out of the top of the palace and fly into the sky!
"Dong Zhuo controls the affairs of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Xie is like a puppet. Are you exaggerating when you praise him like this?"
Sun Quan replied: "It's not an exaggeration! I, the Emperor of Han, used Dong Zhuo to destroy the ten regular servants, which was his cleverness. He promoted three of me to restrain Dong Zhuo, which was his wisdom."
"The Han Dynasty never took the initiative to attack the Ming and Chu countries. It was a benevolence."
"The Three Kingdoms allied themselves and left Dong Zhuo idle in the capital, which was their wisdom."
"Living in a deep palace and looking at the world, using Princess Changle to get close to the Pure Land of Sanskrit Music, he is a hero."
"Befriending Emperor Chu and alienating Your Majesty is my Lord's strategy."
After Sun Quan finished speaking, he bowed deeply, bending over ninety degrees and almost touching the top of the shoe with his head.
Fan Li almost clapped his hands and cheered!
Cao Liusun is indeed a talented person!
In particular, Sun Quan was very flexible and flexible. He first praised the Han Emperor with great righteousness, and then showed weakness with courtesy, so as not to anger Emperor Jiajing and kill him on the spot.
Among the three, Fan Li especially admired Sun Quan.
It's a pity that he knew better than Emperor Jiajing that Cao Liusun would never succumb to others, and he was the kind of person who was impossible to conquer.
"Hmph...hehe...hahahahahaha!!!!"
Emperor Jiajing first laughed softly, and then threw his head back and laughed.
He seemed to smile very freely and even stood up from the futon for the first time.
In an instant!
A powerful bright yellow dragon energy rises into the sky!
In this gorgeous palace, the dragon's roar could finally be heard very clearly.
"Very good." Emperor Jiajing smiled and looked at the three of them coldly. "You are indeed loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty. If I don't kill you today, please leave."
Cao, Liu, and Sun were relieved!
They were about to leave when they remembered that Fan Li was here, and they all cast curious glances at him.
Emperor Jiajing also said: "Fan Aiqing, I need you alone today. Stay here tonight and have dinner with me."
Damn it!
This sounds so awkward.
It's just a meal, please don't make it sound like you're staying in bed!
The corner of Fan Li's mouth twitched before he said: "I'm afraid Your Majesty will be disappointed. If these three people will not betray the Han Dynasty, how can I betray the Chu Dynasty?"
With that said, he also bowed deeply to Emperor Jiajing.
"If your Majesty has nothing else to do, the foreign minister will leave first."
kill?
Or not to kill?
Today I wanted to recruit four people, but none of them succeeded. Emperor Jiajing was indeed murderous!
But when he looked at Fan Li, who was only in the realm of body refining, his murderous intention disappeared instantly.
Since ancient times, there has been no precedent for a Mahayana realm emperor to kill a Body Refining realm emperor!
Emperor Jiajing cannot afford to lose this person!
"That's all...you all go away..."
Emperor Jiajing sat down on the futon again and narrowed his eyes slightly, as if he was going into meditation.
Fan Li finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He couldn't help but look at Cao Liusun next to him, and found that they also looked lucky and survived the disaster.
The four of them stepped out of the palace, and the voice of Emperor Jiajing, which was clear and soothing but mixed with murderous intent, floated behind them.
"It's a pity, this is your only chance."
"We invite each other with gold bottles, but we will not spare each other with swords and swords..."
