Fang Yue was naturally aware of Chu Yi's request for Liu Xuande's seal, so after listening to Chu Yi's instructions, he immediately saluted Chu Yi, and then went straight to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's residence.

Anyway, he is also a messenger of the heavenly family, and he came to read out the edict for Liu Bei, it is not good to make the family wait for a long time, Fang Yue ran all the way out of the general's mansion, and rushed to the residence of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in a very short time.

In the mansion, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei recovered with Zhang Fei, and the two of them looked very low-key in the Tiger Prison, which can be described as in-depth and simple, and Liu Bei's death was very exciting for the two.

Now in addition to the communication that cannot be pushed away in the Tiger Prison, the rest of the time is spent in the mansion to do penance.

The two of them are not fools, the person who can calculate and harm Liu Bei must not be an ordinary existence, it must be a powerful prince in the coalition army, if the coalition army is defeated at that time, it will be fine, but once the two sides fight to defeat both, it means that the difficulty of their revenge will skyrocket.

Which prince has no army around him, no strong generals, the two of them fight alone, even if they fight against Lu Bu and Huang Zhong, they dare to fight with them, but if they really face the army formation composed of elite soldiers and strong generals, the two of them are not sure that they can win in one battle.

Therefore, the two of them put their hearts and minds on cultivation.

Fang Yue's arrival was indeed a bit unexpected by the two of them, but the two of them did not dare to have the slightest contempt, after all, Fang Yue, as the general of Chu Yi's first army, since he came, he must represent Chu Yi.

Guan Yu arched his hand at Fang Yue and said, "General Fang, but Master Hou has something to summon our brother?" ”

Fang Yue had a little smile on his face, and arched his hand at the two of them and said: "Two generals, someone from the court has come, if nothing else, it must be the reward that Hou Ye asked for for Xuande Gong, so Hou Ye asked me to invite the two of them to go to the General's Mansion." ”

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when they heard this, to be honest, for Chu Yi's request for Liu Bei to be crowned King Jing of Zhongshan, the two of them actually didn't have much hope in their hearts, after all, the position of the prince is not so easy to entitle, even if Chu Yi's face is there, I am afraid it is not so easy to ask so many important ministers above the court to agree to this.

The two of them didn't have any hope in their hearts, so naturally they didn't have any expectations, but at this moment, Fang Yue actually told them that it was very likely that the imperial court really granted Chu Yi's request.

The two glanced at each other, with a faint expectation in their hearts, if the imperial court could really agree to Chu Yi's request for Liu Bei's seal, it was related to Liu Bei's grief after his death.

After his death, he was crowned king, and even if he wanted to come to his eldest brother, even if he had a spirit in the sky, he would definitely be able to smile at Jiuquan.

The two of them packed up and came to the General's Mansion with Fang Yue.

When a few people rushed to the General's Mansion, they saw a group of people in the General's Mansion from a distance, led by a waiter dressed as an internal servant.

At this time, Chu Yi was in the lobby, in addition to Chu Yi, there were also Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Huang Zhong and others, after all, the imperial court came, as a high-level in the Tiger Prison, he still had to go through the motions.

And these people are quite curious, whether the imperial court has agreed to Chu Yi's request for seal.

That chamberlain was a close confidant of the Empress Dowager He's side, and he knew Chu Yi's influence in the court better than anyone else, so he didn't have the arrogance of the envoy of the Heavenly Family at all, but he was very low-key, even if Chu Yi asked him to wait in the lobby, there was no complaint.

Seeing Guan Yu and Zhang Fei coming from a distance, Chu Yi nodded at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and said, "It's good that you are here, the imperial court has a will to come down, Xuande is no longer there, and there are no descendants, so your brother will take over this will." ”

While speaking, Chu Yi's gaze fell on the inner servant and said, "You can read the holy decree!" ”

The waiter Huang Kai was shocked when he heard this, and first arched his hand at Chu Yi to salute Chu Yi, and then took a roll of bright yellow silk silk from the hand of the little yellow door beside him, and then slowly unfolded it.

His eyes fell on Chu Yi, and Huang Kai slowly read out the holy decree: "...... Chu Yi, the marquis of Pingze Township, has made great contributions to Sheji, and is specially named the king of Chu......"

I thought it was about Liu Bei's edict, but the holy decree read out from Huang's mouth turned out to be about Chu Yi's edict, which surprised everyone.

Of course, what shocked them even more was the court's reward for Chu Yi, King Chu, which was an extremely noble title among the kings of one word.

Especially how unbelievable it is that Chu Yi was crowned king with a different surname hundreds of years after the founding of the Han Dynasty.

The king with a different surname seems to be an impossible thing in the Han Dynasty, and now it is staged in front of them, even such as Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and Huang Zhong are stunned for a while, which shows how big the impact of this news is on them.

Even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei opened their mouths wide at this time, looking at Huang Kai who read out the holy decree in disbelief, Chu Yi was actually crowned king.

As for how the reward for Liu Bei suddenly became a reward for Chu Yi, no one thought about it at this time, and everyone was shocked by the heavy news that Chu Yi was crowned king.

On the contrary, it was Chu Yi, who was just a little stunned at first, and quickly reacted, his expression was extremely indifferent, as if the king was nothing to him.

This is no wonder Chu Yi, after all, whether Chu Yi is in Daming or Da Song, it is the existence of a former king, the first time may be very shocking, but with the first time, the second and third times naturally have no feelings.

This is the reason why Chu Yi was so bland when he heard the news that he was crowned king.

Huang Xingzhong was naturally very puzzled, could it be that someone had leaked the news to Chu Yi in advance, otherwise, why did Chu Yi seem so calm after hearing the news that he was crowned king.

But no matter what Huang Xingzhong thinks, the process that should be followed still has to go on.

Coughing lightly, Huang Kai respectfully handed over the holy decree to Chu Yi and said, "Please also ask the prince to accept the decree!" ”

Chu Yi glanced at Huang Kai, stretched out his hand to the holy decree, casually handed it to Fang Yue on the side, and then said slowly: "What is the reply of the princes of the court to the recital presented by this king?" ”

When Huang Kai heard this, he naturally knew what Chu Yi meant, and hurriedly beckoned to the little yellow door beside him, and another roll of silk silk was opened, and his eyes fell on Guan Yu and Zhang Fei: "...... After Zha Liu Bei was the King of Zhongshan Jing, he was specially allowed to enter the imperial register as the emperor's uncle of the Son of Heaven and was crowned as the King of Zhongshan Jing......"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei listened to Huang Kai read out the holy decree, and they really had a feeling like they were in a dream.

King Jing of Zhongshan, that is the title of Liu Bei's ancestor, and now it has really fallen on Liu Bei's head, what a glory.

Huang Kai smiled slightly and said, "Two of you, you haven't received the order yet!" ”

Coming back to his senses, Guan Yu hurriedly took the holy decree respectfully with both hands, first bowed to Chu Yi, and then respectfully said to the holy decree: "Thank you for the decree!" ”

After Huang Kai read out the holy decree, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to Chu Yi at this time, took out a letter from his cuff, and carefully handed it to Chu Yi and said: "Lord Wang, this is when the slave and maid left Beijing, the general of the chariot and cavalry asked me to bring it to the prince!" ”

Chu Yi nodded, took the secret letter, and said with a smile: "I'm tired of the angels, the angels have come from afar, and the boat is tired, Fang Yue, you take the angels down to rest for a while." ”

Huang Kai and the others from the capital left with Fang Yue, and Chu Yi and the others were left in the lobby.

At this time, everything came to an end, and everyone came back to their senses, everyone looked at Chu Yi with burning eyes, led by Huang Zhong, and everyone bowed down to Chu Yi and said: "Subordinates, wait for you, knock on the prince, the prince is a thousand years!" ”

Chu Yi waved his hand and said, "You don't have to be formal, what should you do on weekdays, and what is it now." ”

Guo Jia looked determined, and said with a smile: "It seems that the prince's previous recital made some people have some associations." ”

Everyone reacted, Guo Jia's meaning was very clear, it was nothing more than the fact that Chu Yi asked for a seal for Liu Bei that made some people subconsciously think that Chu Yi was asking for a reward from the imperial court. That's why Chu Yi was crowned king today.

To be honest, Chu Yi was really just asking for a reward for Liu Bei at that time, and he didn't mean to ask for a reward for himself at all, after all, as long as Chu Yi was not dizzy, he would definitely not force the court to make him king.

The current situation is not necessarily a good thing for Chu Yi, it seems that being able to be crowned king is very good, but for Chu Yi, it does more harm than good.

But I can't stop some people from thinking too much, this holy decree came down, in broad daylight, in front of so many people, Chu Yi couldn't resist the decree and disrespect, so the name of the king of Chu, whether Chu Yi wanted it or not, fell on Chu Yi.

Jia Xu stroked his beard and said, "It seems that some people are going to make a big fuss about this this time again." ”

With Jia Xu's wisdom, it can already be expected that once the news of Chu Yi being crowned king spreads, those who are dissatisfied with Chu Yi, whether it is the court or the people, will definitely seize this opportunity and target Chu Yi frantically.

For example, Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, and Tai Shici are military generals who don't think as much as Guo Jia and Jia Xu, in their opinion, Chu Yi was crowned king, which is a great honor, and they are also honored to be subordinates.

Some generals even clamored for a big feast and a good celebration.

The news of Chu Yi's being crowned king spread not long after Huang Kai left the capital at Huangmen, and suddenly there was an uproar in the court.

At the court meeting the next day, several old ministers of the Han family jumped out directly, not giving the Empress Dowager He face at all, and bluntly said that the Empress Dowager He caused chaos in the dynasty and wanted to repeat the disaster of Empress Lu.

He was so angry at that time that he even ignored He Miao's hints, and in a fit of anger, he directly issued an order on behalf of the Son of Heaven to drag those old ministers of the Han family down and beat them to death directly.

However, instead of suppressing these important ministers, He's move attracted strong resistance from a group of ministers, if He Miao hadn't seen the opportunity to decisively order a boycott, I am afraid that there would have been chaos in the court.

Even so, Chu Yi's title to the king still caused an uproar, and a large number of people jumped out to criticize Chu Yi as a big traitor who brought disaster to the country and the people, and even the queen mother He and the general He Miao were also scolded for being bloody.

Wang Yun's mansion

In the palace, several important ministers of the court are gathering on Wang Yun's mansion at the moment, including Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, Fu Wan and others, these people are still quite loyal to the Han family, otherwise it would not be possible to fall out with the He family in the court because of the fact that the He family enshrined Chu Yi as the king.

After all, at present, the court is still above the He family's assistance to the Son of Heaven to listen to the government, and there is a precedent of the Lu family, if the He family is willing, the life and death of these important ministers are really in the hands of the He family.

Wang Yun said with a distressed look at this time: "Ladies and gentlemen, the Son of Heaven is young, and the Queen Mother will take advantage of the power of the Son of Heaven to disrupt the court and the foundation of my Han Dynasty. ”

Brushing his beard, Lu Zhi sighed lightly: "It's a pity that in addition to being able to show our attitude in the court, we can't help the Queen Mother and the General Che Cavalry at all." ”

Wang Yun's eyes narrowed, glanced at a few people, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the queen mother and He Miao's biggest reliance is nothing more than the Son of Heaven and the thief Chu Yi. The Son of Heaven is just that, but the most important thing is the Chu thief, if the Chu thief is dead, with our influence, it is not difficult to set up chaos anyway. ”

Glancing at Wang Yun lightly, Huangfu Song coughed lightly and said, "Zishi Mo didn't have any private connection with Yuan Benchu." ”

Wang Yun said with a straight expression: "Yuan Benchu and the others raised troops just to eradicate the traitors, and I just exchanged a few letters in private. ”

Huangfu Song said: "If this matter leaks out, I'm afraid that the Chu thief will not let go of the submaster." ”

Wang Yun suddenly said with an angry face: "I am inseparable from the Chu thief, unless I die, otherwise, I will risk my life to get rid of the Chu thief for the court, reshape the court, and save Your Majesty from fire and water." ”

Glancing at Wang Yun lightly, Huangfu Song coughed lightly and said, "Zishi Mo didn't have any private connection with Yuan Benchu." ”

Wang Yun said with a straight expression: "Yuan Benchu and the others raised troops just to eradicate the traitors, and I just exchanged a few letters in private. ”

Huangfu Song said: "If this matter leaks out, I'm afraid that the Chu thief will not let go of the submaster." ”

Wang Yun suddenly said with an angry face: "I am inseparable from the Chu thief, unless I die, otherwise, I will risk my life to get rid of the Chu thief for the court, reshape the court, and save Your Majesty from fire and water." Wang Yun suddenly said with an angry face: "I am inseparable from the Chu thief, unless I die, otherwise, I will risk my life to get rid of the Chu thief for the court, reshape the court, and save Your Majesty from fire and water." ”
