Lu Dynasty

Chapter 399 Prelude to Enthronement
Hearing what I said, Liu Ye immediately understood that he had misunderstood me.However, Liu Ye, who is a scholar-official class, knows the importance of craftsmen, but he still doesn't understand why I value craftsmen so much.My attitude towards craftsmen is more important than that of ordinary scholar-bureaucrats.However, if he knows that I will hand over even the alchemists to him in the future, he should be even more depressed!At that time, he will not only be the head of a craftsman, but also the head of a Taoist priest!Maybe hundreds of years later, Liu Ye's image will no longer be that of a scholar but of a veteran.

Seeing that Liu Ye had opened his heart, Guo Jia smiled and said, "My lord, how about Zi Yang's article? You haven't commented yet? If it is possible, I will order the Ministry of Intelligence to spread it to the world!"

"The article is well written, and it will never be inferior to Xun Wenruo. It's just that you can't pass it on directly now!" I smiled and said, "Feng Xiao, how is the preparation for Liu Bian's enthronement hall that I asked you to prepare?"

"Don't worry about my work?" Guo Jia replied with a smile: "King Hongnong can ascend the throne at any time. If the Lord wants him to ascend the throne as soon as possible, it will be an auspicious day in five days."

"Yes!" I nodded and said; "In this case, the enthronement ceremony will be held five days later, and Ziyang's proclamation will be announced to the world at the ceremony. At the same time as the announcement to the world, we will stamp the Imperial Seal on it! Bier, Are you okay!"

"Don't worry, brother Lu!" Liu Bian said with a smile: "I only hope that if brother Lu catches Liu Xie, he can let him live. At least he is my father's son, my brother. Although he once harmed me, But he is not benevolent, how can I be unrighteous?"

I smiled and said: "Since Bian'er doesn't care about it, I don't need to kill him. But I can't guarantee whether he can wait for me alive. After all, Cao has hated Liu Xie to the bone. If something goes wrong , Cao will definitely kill Liu Xie."

"If it's as Brother Lu said, it will be Xie'er's life!" Liu Bian sighed; "My younger brother is too ambitious, so it can be seen that it is right for Brother Lu not to help him. If you can’t save Brother Lu, you can save him, and if you can’t save me, don’t force it! Everything is fate, and everything is everyone’s choice!”

"Why has Bian'er talked more about Zen recently?" I laughed and said, "Could it be that Bian'er wants to become a monk? Shall I introduce you to a Taoist temple? I remember that Zilong has a master who seems to be a very famous bull-nosed, It's Mr. Wujiao Zuo Ci, can't I ask Zilong to contact you?"

"Brother Lu is joking again!" Liu Bian said, "I don't have the leisure to become a monk! Some time ago, some monks came to Luoyang, and I think what they said made sense. Silly! I have learned a lot from Mr. Xi recently! My father’s incompetence led to the downfall of the great man, now let me do something for the common people of the great man, as atonement for my father!”

"The decline of the great man cannot be completely blamed on His Majesty Lingdi, after all, what he took over was the mess left by Emperor Huan of Han!" I said with a smile, "However, you should pay attention to monks and Taoists. The lessons learned by Zhang Jiao still exist. If they just If it is preaching, then let them preach it. After all, there are many words of governance in Buddhism. If these monks and Taoists incite the people to donate money and materials, exploit and fool the people, once they find out that they will be killed, even if they slaughter their nine clans, they must be killed. I’m afraid I’ll kill them!” Seeing my seriousness, Liu Bian and Guo Jia quickly agreed.

After Cao issued the edict judging me as a traitor, he was always uneasy.He didn't understand what was going on, so he invited Cheng Yu and Xun Yu to discuss it.After Xun Yu and Cheng Yu knew Cao's worry, Xun Yu said with a smile: "It seems that my lord was frightened by Lu Feng's previous image. Don't worry, my lord, this time we are using a strategy that benefits nothing but harms nothing. Feng can only suffer a dark loss!"

"I hope so!" Cao was still uneasy. Xun Yu and Cheng Yu looked at Cao, but they didn't know how to persuade him.In fact, they are also very afraid of me.

"Report!" A small school rushed into the conference hall and said to Cao: "My lord, there is news from Sili about Lu Feng, please check it, my lord!"

Xun Yu received the message, waved the little principal to step down, and handed the message to Cao.Cao was like a candidate who was about to reveal his results in an exam, and he opened the news nervously.He took a closer look and was immediately stunned. The paper full of news in his hand slipped to the ground!Seeing Cao's pale face, Cheng Yu smiled and picked up the paper on the ground and said, "Let me see what news surprised the lord!" Cheng Yu just read the beginning and exclaimed: "How is it possible! He is not dead! "

It's okay for Xun Yu to be dazed when he sees Cao, because Cao has always been the kind of person who is very happy and angry.But when he saw that Cheng Yu, who was as calm as he was, lost his composure like this, he knew something was wrong.Xun Yu stood behind Cheng Yu and watched the news with him.When Xun Yu saw the five big characters of Hongnong King Liu Bian, he asked in surprise: "Your Highness Bian? Impossible, His Highness Bian has been dead for almost ten years! Don't worry, my lord, this Liu Bian must belong to the Lu Feng sect." He is pretending to be someone, and we will send someone to expose him when the time comes!"

Hearing what Xun Yu said, Cao secretly sighed in his heart: I didn't expect Lu Feng to make such a move.Now the princes of the world, who cares whether Liu Bian is true or false.And whether it is true or false, it is a blow to my righteousness.Cao suddenly had a feeling of stealing chickens without losing money.Cheng Yu naturally thought of this too, but he could only follow what Xun Yu said and send someone to expose Liu Bian.None of them thought that Liu Bian was real!In their view, how could the cruel Dong Zhuo kill the people alive in this world.They don't even believe that I can save Liu Bian from Dong Zhuo.None of them thought that Dong Zhuo might be a loyal minister!In fact, it is undeniable that people have two sides. You cannot deny everything about a person just because he made a mistake, just like a judge once said: Even a criminal who has committed a heinous crime may have a good side!
Cao looked at the two advisers under his command and smiled wryly: "When the high platform was built outside Luoyang City, I always wanted to know what that high platform was for. Now I would rather not know!"

"My lord, now is not the time to think about these things. Liu Bian will be enthroned in five days!" Cheng Yu said, "The most urgent thing is how can we prevent and destroy Liu Bian's enthronement ceremony!"

Xun Yu said helplessly: "Let's hold a big court meeting to decide! Since Lu Feng wants to challenge the majesty of the big man, naturally it shouldn't be only our side!" When Xun Yu said this, Cao felt that it was very reasonable, so he ordered the next day. Early in the morning for the Great Court Meeting!
