A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and on this day, Zhuge Liang and other civil and military ministers came to see Liu Bei again

Liu Bei asked a group of civil and military officials: "I asked you to give the first emperor a nickname, I don't know what result you can discuss?" ”

Zhuge Liang arched his hand and said to Liu Bei: "The first emperor was a young mother, and he was bullied by Dong thieves when he succeeded to the throne at an early age.

The fate of the first emperor is ill-fated, which makes people sympathetic, although he has talent, but there is no place for him, so I discussed it and decided to give the first emperor the name of filial piety, and he was called the emperor of filial piety. ”

"It makes sense!" Liu Bei nodded when he heard this.

A nickname is a title used to summarize and evaluate a person's life after death, and there is no room for deception, and it is as it should be.

For example, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty expanded his territory in his lifetime, and it is reasonable to call him Emperor Wu. Song Renzong was benevolent and righteous all his life, and a word of benevolence also summed up his life. For example, the spirit of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty represents the absurdity and immorality, although he is the emperor, but the courtiers are still official, and they do not give praise because of their identity.

Liu Xie's life can be described as sad, although he has some talent, but there is no place for it, it is reasonable to summarize it in a word.

As for the dedication name given by Cao Wei, it is a little inappropriate, although Liu Xie is smart and wise, he does not show too much. Sadness and intelligence are obviously a bit larger in the components of sadness, and it is obviously inappropriate to summarize his life with wisdom and wisdom.

Liu Bei groaned: "Let's use the name of filial piety, and hold a ceremony on a day to pay tribute to the emperor and pay homage to him." ”

Zhuge Liang arched his hand and said: "I have ordered someone to prepare, on the twenty-eighth of this month, a ceremony can be held!" ”

Liu Bei nodded, waved his hand and said, "Well, I'm relieved to have a military advisor to handle it, go down!" ”

Time came to the 28th, and on this day, Liu Bei led the civil and military ministers to participate in Liu Xie's sacrificial ceremony.

After the worship, a ceremony was held to give Liu Xie, and then Liu Bei was ready to go back, but Zhuge Liang gave up: "The lord is slow!" ”

Liu Bei saw Zhuge Liang blocking his way, and asked, "Military advisor, what else do you have to do?" ”

Zhuge Liang advised: "Lord, if today's son has been killed by Cao Pi, as the saying goes, the country can not be without a king for a day, and please ask the lord to enter the throne and call the emperor, if the lord insists on not accepting, after a long time, the world only knows Cao Wei, but does not know the Han, then my Han will really die." ”

Xu Jing arched his hand and said: "Now that the emperor of the Han Dynasty has been killed by Cao Pi, if the lord is not the emperor, he will rebel against him, and he will not be loyal and righteous." Today, everyone wants the lord to be the king, and he hates the emperor for filial piety. If the lord does not follow the advice of the ministers, it will be discouraged. ”

"Please also ask the lord to be the emperor!"

"Please also ask the lord to be the emperor!"

All the civil and military officers knelt on the ground and begged Liu Bei to be emperor.

Liu Bei looked angry, pointed at everyone and scolded: "Although I am the grandson of Emperor Jing, I do not have Deze to spread to the people; Once you establish yourself as emperor now, what is the difference between it and usurpation! ”

"The lord is wrong with this!" Zhuge Liang said: "The lord is the clan of the Liu family, such as today's clan, there is only one lord, now Cao Pi usurped the Han, the Son of Heaven was killed, the lord should succeed to the throne for the ninth five, in order to extend the Han worship, if the lord does not obey, my Han will be completely cut off."

Moreover, the lord was benevolent and righteous all his life, and everywhere he went, the people all greeted each other and begged the thieves, and the people of Guanzhong rejoiced. Cao Pi, a man with no virtue and no talent, is still an emperor, and the lord is talented and debu in the four seas, how can he not be called an emperor?

Please also ask the lord not to be arrogant, and succeed to the throne as the emperor, so as to extend the Han family. ”

"I will never obey this matter, and I will discuss it later!" Liu Bei said goodbye and took Liu Chan with his sleeves and left.

"The lord's attitude is so resolute, doesn't he have the heart to be the emperor?" After Liu Bei left, Wei Yan said with a frown.

Zhuge Liang smiled faintly, not in a hurry: "If you carry the position, you need to ask for three resignations, and this is the second time!" I think that Cao Pi has been coveting the emperor for a long time, isn't it the same? ”

Xu Jing groaned: "Then how will we advise the lord next time?" The first time we entered the palace together to ask for the lord, and the second time we took the opportunity to worship the first emperor and give him a name to ask the lord, and the next time we need to be even stronger. ”

"I have a plan!" Zhuge Liang smiled and whispered to everyone.

Xu Jing was overjoyed when he heard this: "In this way, the lord will not shirk!" ”

More than ten days passed in a flash, and in these ten days, a group of civil ministers and military generals never advised Liu Bei to be the emperor.

On this day, Liu Chan came to the government to deal with official business, but he didn't see Zhuge Liang coming, so he summoned the adjutant to ask the reason.

The adjutant replied: "Qi Shizi, the military advisor sent someone to report early in the morning, saying that he was sick and could not come to assist the prince in governing the government, so he sent someone to ask for leave. ”

"The military advisor is sick?" Deng Ai, who was Zhuge Liang's apprentice, was shocked when he heard this: "The military advisor has always been strong, why is he sick, Shizi, should we go to visit?" ”

Liu Chan already knew Zhuge Liang's purpose, waved his hand and said: "The official business is complicated, I won't go, besides, with the presence of a divine doctor, the military advisor will not be a big problem." ”

Deng Ai heard the words and said: "Shizi, then you are in the palace first, and I will visit the military advisor." ”

Liu Chan waved his hand and said with a faint smile: "Go ahead, but it doesn't matter if you can't see the military advisor." ”

Not long after, Deng Ai returned to the mansion and said with a discouraged face: "The military advisor refuses visitors, and he doesn't even see me, the son of the world, you already know that the military advisor won't see me?" ”

Liu Chan asked rhetorically: "The military advisor is sick, how can he see you?" ”

Deng Ai was immediately choked back by this sentence, but he felt that this matter was not so simple.

Time came to the evening in a flash, and although there was no Zhuge Liang's assistance, Liu Chan still completed all official duties on time.

Seeing this, Deng Ai said, "Shizi, it's time for us to go back!" ”

Liu Chan didn't mean to go back: "I'm showing me the official document." ”

Deng Ai was puzzled: "Didn't you carefully review the school team when you reviewed it, why do you have to read it again?" And if you go back every night, don't you have to report to the lord, if you go back late......"

"I have my own opinions, you go and get it!"

Deng Ai had no choice but to bring the official document to Liu Chan again.

By the time Liu Chan read the official document again, it was already an hour later, an hour later than the previous time to go back.

When he returned home, Liu Chan came to report to Liu Bei about the day's work.

Liu Bei had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Liu Chan coming back, he asked, "Why did I come back half an hour late today, but what was the big thing that was difficult to solve?" ”

Liu Chan arched his hand and explained: "The military advisor has not arrived when he is sick today, and without the assistance of the military advisor, the child will spend an extra hour. ”

Deng Ai, who followed Liu Chan, looked at Liu Chan with a strange expression, you obviously finished your work on time, you have to read the official document again, it is only an hour late, what does it have to do with Zhuge Liang not coming to assist you?

Deng Ai squinted his eyes and guessed Liu Chan's intentions.

Hearing this, Liu Bei hurriedly asked, "The military advisor is sick, can you go to visit, how is the condition?" The military advisor has always been a waste of sleep and food, even if he is sick, he will not waste his official duties, and now that he is on leave, he must be very sick. ”

Liu Chan arched his hand and said, "The child hasn't had time to visit yet!" ”

"In that case, you will come with me to visit you early tomorrow morning."

"No!"
