On this day, the sun was in the east, and it was still morning.

Outside the north city gate, there are many common people, businessmen come in and out, it is very prosperous.Among the many people who came in and out, there was a team that was very dazzling.

This is a team of hundreds of people, there are more than [-] carts, guarded by soldiers, and the leader is a carriage in front, which is rather strange.

And this team had already appeared, and was immediately led into the city by a group of soldiers, and went straight to Wei Palace all the way.

Not long after, the team arrived outside the Wei palace, and a person got off the carriage. This person was eight feet long and had a beautiful face.It was Yan Zhong, the counselor under the command of Gongsun Du in Liaodong.

Yan Zhong went south, passed Yuan Shao's territory, and finally arrived at the gate of Wei Palace.

After Yan Zhong got off the carriage, he was immediately led into the palace, and soon arrived outside the main hall of Wei Palace.

"Master Yan, Duke Wei, and Wu Hou's envoy Zhuge Jin, and Yuan Gong's envoy Fengji have been waiting for a long time, please come inside." When Yan Zhong arrived outside the hall, an eunuch in the palace saluted Yan Zhong.

"Please." Yan Zhong didn't despise him just because he was an eunuch, he nodded and said, before stepping into the main hall.

Although Cao Cao did not claim the title of king, he has been called the Duke for a long time.At the beginning, he supervised the construction of a simple and crude palace, but after many years, the whole palace has been perfected.

Let’s just say that the main hall, with its huge scale and solemn temperament, is not inferior to the Deyang Hall of the imperial palace in Luoyang City, which makes people feel respectful.

At this moment, there were several people sitting in the main hall, and the most eye-catching one was the one sitting on the seat. This person was wearing a crown and a crown, and had an outstanding temperament.

Yan Zhong knew that this person was probably the well-known Wei Gong Cao Cao.

"Da da da."

After Yan Zhong looked around for a while, he started and walked forward. When Cao Cao came close, he bowed down and said, "Foreign Minister Yan Zhong, I pay my respects to Duke Wei."

"Exemption."

Cao Cao raised his hand and said kindly.

"Thank you, Duke Wei."

Yan Zhong thanked him.

Immediately, Cao Cao invited Yan Zhong to sit down again, and introduced the characters in the main hall.There are Zhuge Jin, Feng Ji, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Dong Zhao, and Chen Qun.

Under Cao Cao's introduction, everyone greeted Yan Zhong.

After that, we got to the point.

Cao Cao took a deep breath and said to Yan Zhong: "Nowadays, the Han Dynasty is strong, but the princes are weak. If we can't rely on each other as lips and teeth, we are afraid that the Han Dynasty will be wiped out. Therefore, the day before yesterday, Wu Hou sent Zhuge Jin as an envoy. Gu, contacted Benchu ​​again, Shengji (Gongsundu character), Shi Xie, appointed the king policy of the Five Kingdoms. Now, Shi Xie handed over a land of thousands of miles to the Han Dynasty. But Gu and Benchu, But I am glad to accept it. I don’t know what is the meaning of Shengji?"

But it turned out that before Yan Zhong arrived, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Sun Ce had reached a consensus, and decided that even if Gongsun Du did not join, they should respect each other as kings.

Become an alliance of lips and teeth.

"Since ancient times, the feudal lords have been strong, but the Son of Heaven has been nothing more than the co-lord. Now that the Han Dynasty is strong and bullies the feudal lords, it is unethical. The Lord also agrees with the feudal lords to be kings, and respects Wei Gong as the Son of Heaven to replace the Han Dynasty. Your ministers come to see you."

Volume 307, Section 2468: Chapter 250, King of the East County (2)

Yan Zhong didn't say anything superfluous, but directly expressed Gongsun Du's attitude. "good."

Although the military strength of Gongsundu in Liaodong is the weakest, it is a bit inappropriate to be called king.But for the princes, having Gongsun Du join in is like drinking rain.

When Cao Cao heard that Gongsun Du also agreed, he couldn't help saying hello, his face beaming with joy.

Not only Cao Cao, but also everyone in the main hall showed joy and welcomed it.

"General Gongsun dominates several counties in eastern Liaodong, with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and is powerful overseas. He is a powerful general in the world. If General Gongsun helps him, the Han Dynasty will be able to resist."

Zhuge Jin said happily.

"Exactly, General Gongsun is unrivaled in power. If you get the general's help, the power of the princes will definitely increase." Feng Ji was also beaming with joy, and bowed deeply to Yan Zhong.

"There is a severe difference between the two."

But at this moment, Guo Jia said with a smile.

"Why." Zhuge Jin and Feng Ji didn't realize that they had said something wrong, so they turned their heads and looked at Guo Jia in confusion.Even Yan Zhong is the same.

"Since he is the Prime Minister of the Four Kingdoms, he is the Great King. How can the two of you be called generals?" Guo Jia explained with a smile.

"I waited wrong."

Zhuge Jin and Feng Ji also immediately realized their mistake when they heard the words, and said with a smile.Immediately afterwards, he apologized to Yan Zhong again.

Although it was said that Zhuge Jin and Feng Ji made mistakes and corrected Guo Jia, the atmosphere became even more prosperous, filled with a sense of prosperity.

After a while, everyone laughed.

Cao Cao, on the other hand, took a deep breath, looked around at the crowd, and said, "Shi Xie has already surrendered, so there is no need to count him. Now the Four Kingdoms Alliance has become the king. I wonder if the kings have prepared their titles?"

"Yan." Yan Zhong raised his fist when he heard the words.The land of Youyan in Liaodong is naturally named after Yan.This point, Gongsun Du, who is looking forward to becoming king, has already thought about it.

"Wu." Immediately, Zhuge Jin raised his fist and said.Needless to say, Sun Ce has long been known as Marquis of Wu for leading the Wuyue army.

"Zhao."

Feng Ji also raised his fist and said.

The land of Hebei has been the land of Jin and Zhao since ancient times, and Yuan Shao chose Zhao as his name.

"Okay, now that you have an account, it's easy to handle." Cao Cao said with a smile when he heard the words, and then said: "Thanks to Bofu, at the beginning, Shengji valued him, and respected Gu as the emperor of Wei. Then Gu will do his part. , Immediately issued an edict to enshrine the kings. And in March of the next year, we will go to the altar with the kings in Xuzhou to worship the heavens and become kings."

During the Warring States Period, the Prime Minister of the Five Kingdoms happened in Xuzhou.Therefore, Cao Cao followed suit.

This point is a matter of form, and Cao Cao didn't think much about it.

"No."

After Cao Cao finished speaking, Yan Zhong said.

"Why?"

Cao Cao was not angry when he heard the words, but asked strangely.Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, Dong Zhao, Chen Qun, Zhuge Jin, Feng Ji and others were also quite strange.

"The Xiangwang of the Four Kingdoms followed the example of the Xiangwang of the Five Kingdoms during the Warring States Period. However, during the Warring States Period, the Xiangwang of the Five Kingdoms was defeated in the end. They were all destroyed by Qin. Today, the Han Dynasty is as strong as Qin. It might be inauspicious to use Xuzhou as an alliance. Therefore, the foreign ministers thought it was impossible."

Facing everyone's eyes, Yan Zhong took a deep breath and explained.

"It's true." Cao Cao didn't believe in good and bad luck, but he had to keep his distance.After thinking about it, it makes sense.So, he turned to say: "Then let's meet in Dongjun. In March next year, Qing and others can repay the kings."

"promise."

Yan Zhong, Zhuge Jin, and Feng Ji all agreed.
