    On the central street of Dongyang City, a group of cavalry is riding fast!

    Since the establishment of the Yangzhou Law, no one has dared to gallop on the Central Avenue. Just when people were surprised and wanted to know who didn't understand the rules, the leading cavalryman held up the command flag and shouted:

    "Great victory in the north!"

    "The Marquis of Dongyang defeated millions of foreign races in the North!"

    News came one after another, causing a sensation in an instant.

    "There is no doubt that it will be a war in the north. The main battle regiment of the Yangzhou Army has set out to fight in the wild land of the north. How can we stop the king's division? Haha, what a joy the Marquis of Dongyang is about to conquer the barbarians!"

    The cavalry passed by, and people were filled with joy when they heard the news.  Yangzhou has become stronger. As a Yangzhou native, there is no reason to be unhappy.

    As the news of Liu Ke's victory spread throughout the thirteen states, the people were happy for Liu Ke, and the momentum was almost done.

    When Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty was in power, he and his ministers established the White Horse Alliance: Anyone who is not the Liu family and is the king will be attacked by the whole world.

    Liu Ke is a person with the surname Liu, a member of the royal family, and fully meets the conditions for becoming a king.

    If Cao Cao wanted to object, he could only hold back the righteousness of the imperial court and not dare to be too fierce.

    He has been granted the title of King of Wei, and his surname is Cao, not Liu.

    What qualifications do you have to oppose Liu Ke being crowned king?

    But Liu Ke¡¯s strength is too strong, so powerful that no one can defeat him.  Once Liu Ke is made king, Liu Ke's ambition will go one step further. If he takes one more step forward, he will become the supreme emperor!

    How could Cao Cao not be worried!

    If the imperial court makes Liu Ke king, it will definitely make many people think about it. If they think wrongly, many people will turn to Liu Ke because of this.  And who is he, Cao Cao?

    The imperial court is in the hands of Cao Cao. If Cao Cao does not agree, Liu Ke will have nothing to do for the time being.

    So Cao Cao must be convinced!

    Liu Ke¡¯s strength is that he can proclaim himself king, but without the imperial edict to recognize it, it will never be orthodox.  Therefore, it must be recognized by the imperial decree.

    He convinced the world with his achievements!

    Cao Cao was forced by the general situation and had to agree.  However, he also bought himself three years, which is not a loss at all.

    If Cao Cao dares to object, Liu Ke can use the righteousness of the White Horse Alliance to raise troops to attack Cao Cao.

    Does Cao Cao dare to disobey?

    Therefore, it is imperative for Liu Ke to be crowned king!

    Cao Cao also had his own small thoughts. Although the emperor did nothing in this northern expedition, it also boosted his prestige.

    He planned to use Liu Ke's appointment as king to further suppress the prestige of the imperial court, further weaken the influence of the "imperial court", and control the imperial court more effectively.

    In short, Liu Ke was granted the title of king, and Cao Cao sought benefits as much as possible to reduce his own losses.

    The only troublesome thing is that Emperor Xian has to nod his approval for this matter!

    Of course, if Emperor Xian agrees, everyone will feel better.

    The heavy burden falls on Sima Yi!

    Emperor Xian is no longer the child held hostage by Dong Zhuo. After experiencing so many things, his mind is already more mature than ordinary people, and his city is deeper.

    "My lord, see your majesty!"

    After Sima Yi came in, he saluted Emperor Xian casually.

    His frivolous behavior clearly showed that he did not take Emperor Xian seriously, as if he were a tool.

    A trace of anger flashed in Emperor Xian's eyes, but he had always learned to hide his emotions and restrained his anger very well.

    Sima Yi said without emotion: "Your Majesty, I have something important to report to you when I come here this time."

    "If you have anything to do, you can report it directly to the Prime Minister. You don't need to tell me. I haven't been involved in government affairs for many years." Emperor Xian said indifferently.

    ¡°Your Majesty must agree to this matter!¡± Sima Yi said unhurriedly.

    "In that case, tell me, what is it?"

    Although Emperor Xian was unhappy, he did not dare to blast Sima Yi out directly. After all, the person behind Sima Yi was Cao Cao, and judging from Sima Yi's appearance, he must have come on behalf of Cao Cao.

    "Not long ago, the Marquis of Dongyang defeated a million Xianbei army. Did your Majesty hear about it?" Sima Yi said.

    Normally, such major events in the world would be reported to Emperor Xian, but recently, Emperor Xian no longer feels this kind of respect!

    The Marquis of Dongyang submitted a memorial, but Cao Cao directly detained him.  Not only Liu Ke¡¯s, but also those of other ministers and princes.After getting tired of seeing it, he remembered the existence of Emperor Xian.

    Emperor Xian dares to be angry but dare not speak!

    Therefore, regarding the defeat of Xianbei, Emperor Xian was belatedly aware of it, but he still knew it.

    He nodded and asked Sima Yi to continue.

    "The Marquis of Dongyang is the pillar of the country. He eliminates the rebel bandits who ceded territory, defeats the invading aliens, and restores peace and tranquility to the world. At the same time, he governs the world for the emperor and allows the people to live and work in peace and contentment. His achievements and virtues are praised by the people of the world, and your majesty should reward him.  he!"

    "Because of Dongyang Hou's supreme achievements, he should be crowned king!"

    Emperor Xian was stunned. Why was Cao Cao so kind-hearted all of a sudden? He even sent his confidant Sima Yi to seek benefits for the Marquis of Dongyang. He was so active!

    It¡¯s unbelievable.

    But Emperor Xian figured it out quickly.

    "Cao Cao is a prince with a foreign surname. What if he doesn't please Dongyang Hou and is hated by Dongyang Hou?"

    The best way is to make Dongyang Hou also become the king!

    As the supreme ruler, Emperor Xian certainly did not want the appearance of various kings, but could he refuse?

    Not long ago, the Marquis of Dongyang, who had just recognized Liu Bei as King of Hanzhong and made more contributions to the world, should get more, otherwise he would not be able to convince the public.

    Sima Yi looked at Liu Xie unceremoniously and asked, "Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

    "The Marquis of Dongyang has made enough contributions. Your Majesty should canonize him as king, so that the Marquis of Dongyang can better serve your Majesty. It will also better let the people of the world know your majesty's love for his ministers."

    Having said this, Emperor Xian had no reason to object. It was not that he was unparalleled in his righteousness.

    But from beginning to end, Liu Ke never accepted a title from the imperial court. He was always the Marquis of Dongyang conferred by the late emperor.

    If Liu Ke suddenly accepts the throne as a reward from Emperor Xian, does it mean that his attitude has changed?

    That¡¯s right, after Princess Wannian married the Marquis of Dongyang, Emperor Xian also became the brother-in-law.

    With this relationship, the Marquis of Dongyang would not resist Emperor Xian¡¯s reward.

    This also means that Emperor Xian also has a backer!

    Cao Cao controlled the court and bullied him. He was not as strong as Cao Cao, so forget it. But now Cao Cao's subordinates are also coming to bully him. Do you really think he has nothing?  Do you really think he is someone easy to bully?

    With the relationship of Marquis Dongyang, even if Emperor Xian did something extraordinary, such as killing some disrespectful ministersCao Cao could only turn a blind eye, right?

    Emperor Xian no longer has to worry about his life!

    So, with his own little thoughts in mind, he readily agreed to make Liu Ke the king.

    Sima Yi¡¯s eyebrows twitched, not knowing what he was thinking.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
