Chapter 154
"Lucheng Tinghou and Qidu Weichen have seen His Majesty!"

Before entering the Dezheng Hall, Liu Bei gave Liu Bei a high-level look and introduced the palace etiquette in detail. A young eunuch was allowed to step into the Dezheng Hall after taking off his shoes and taking off his sword. As soon as Liu Bei stepped into the Dezheng Hall, Lian Lingdi Without seeing it, it crawled on the ground.

"Come on, brother Wang, let me take a good look at it. It is somewhat similar to the ancestor of Prince Jing."

Lingdi's voice was extremely feminine, loud but somewhat lacking in energy, which made Liu Bei, who blamed Zhang Fei's loud voice, very unpleasant to his ears.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Liu Bei stood up, looking at his nose, his nose at his mouth, and his mouth to his heart. He could only look at Lingdi from the corner of his eye. Lingdi was less than thirty and had a little white hair on his head. Thin.

Emperor Ling was squinting his eyes and looking at Liu Bei carefully: "Long arms and big ears, Xuande is really a blessed man! Haha! Come to the table!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Emperor Ling seemed to be in a good mood, and talked with Liu Bei about the family tree of the Liu family in Lucheng. Fortunately, Liu Bei's previous memories were not lost, so he dealt with them one by one.After continuing the family tree, Emperor Ling nodded: "So, Xuande and I are still of the same generation!"

At noon, Emperor Ling left Liu Bei to have a meal in the palace. After the meal, Emperor Ling changed into merchant clothes, and the servants around him were all dressed as servants. On the way, Emperor Ling asked Liu Bei, "Brother, how do you think my emperor is sitting?"

Well!Emperor Ling asked Liu Bei. The two emperors Huan and Ling of the Han Dynasty were the signs of a faint emperor. To be honest, Liu Bei didn't have the guts to say flattery but was speechless.

Seeing that Liu Bei was silent, Emperor Ling laughed lightly: "My brother is an honest gentleman! I don't dare to compare myself to Yao and Shun, but I would like to learn from Emperor Guangwu to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty, but..., hey! Don't talk about it!"

Lingdi didn't know what to think of while talking, suddenly frowned and sighed, and then said: "Speaking of which, my brother is still a great hero in investigating chaos, tell me, what reward do you want?"

Liu Bei was fooled by Lingdi's leaping thinking, but he remembered what Cai Yong said and hurriedly said: "The minister is the descendant of Liu's surname, and it is a duty to protect our Liu family. How dare you ask His Majesty for a reward?"

I don't know whether it was Liu Bei's taboos that offended Lingdi, or the refusal that made Lingdi angry. In short, Lingdi's face was very ugly, and he said gloomyly: "Huangfu Yizhen and Zhu Gongwei also have other surnames! They are both ranked in the rank of marquis, governor, etc. Sir, you are my younger brother! How can you just be a small cavalry captain?"

Although the riding captain is also two thousand stones, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty merged the duties of the county captain into the prefect's command, and the riding captain became a noble and idle position, unlike the school lieutenant and Zhonglang general who hold actual military power in their hands.

Emperor Ling didn't give up, and Liu Bei didn't want to change his mind: "How can Bei be able to steal a high position with little virtue? A cavalry captain, Beishang, can't do it? Your Majesty, please allow Bei to return to Youzhou to study."

If you don't want to be promoted, you want to resign?Emperor Ling really didn't expect Liu Bei to say this, and his gloomy face instantly softened: "Youzhou is also a barren land! Luoyang, where great scholars gather, my brother might as well study while learning to be an official."

Just what I want!Liu Bei could not wait to shout Long Live, Emperor Ling held Liu Bei's hand and said: "Today, when I first saw my younger brother, I felt extremely kind. I will take my younger brother to the West Garden for a walk. If you are interested, just take it."

The West Garden was built after Emperor Ling became an adult, and all the proceeds from selling officials and nobles were used to build the West Garden, which shows the prosperity of the West Garden.

Liu Bei heard the noise from a long distance away, Liu Bei's head suddenly became dizzy, but Lingdi was extremely excited: "My brother can take whatever he likes, don't be polite, I will go back as soon as I go."

In Liu Bei's view, the so-called Xiyuan is a super big shopping mall in the Han Dynasty, which sells all kinds of things, and there are merchants, sellers, men, women, young and all kinds of people inside, shouting loudly.

Liu Bei walked all the way, but there was nothing he liked. From time to time, a marketing method or item of later generations popped up in his mind to compare with it and silently write it down.

Liu Bei shook his head and left a booth, a businessman in his forties suddenly appeared in front of Liu Bei, and said: "I see that you have an extraordinary temperament, so you must despise these anti-vulgar things. There are some rare things in my shop that will surely catch your attention." .”

Liu Bei waved his hand: "No need! I'm just looking around casually, and have no desire to buy anything!"

The merchant said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether you buy it or not, the key is that you don't want to see what a rare thing it is? It's not worth seeing it?"

Emperor Ling disappeared without saying a word, Liu Bei wanted to leave but how could he leave the palace without an imperial decree?If you have nothing to do, just follow him to see what a rare thing it is!
"Lead the way ahead."

However, Liu Bei saw a large shop at a distance of dozens of steps, and there was a plaque above the shop with the number "Tianxia" on it.

Is it a shop in the world?The name is quite big, this place is just a corner of the palace!With broken thoughts, Liu Bei strode into the store. How can there be any rare things to sell in such a huge empty store?
Seeing Liu Bei's doubts, the merchant said, "My lord, please come inside."

As soon as you enter the back room, you can see the seals and ribbons of various colors and sizes densely placed on the case, such as the case engraved with the word Youzhou.

Liu Bei visited Jizhou, Qingzhou, Bingzhou, Liangzhou, Yongzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, Yizhou, Yangzhou, Yanzhou, Jiaozhou, and Sili in turn. There are generals, school captains, ministers, censors, Yilang, big and small Huangmen, and princes and seals.

Liu Bei randomly picked up a tiger talisman, and the tiger roared and stomped its hooves, looking like it was attacking through the air. The word "Tiger Ben" was engraved on the body of the tiger, and there was a line of small characters "engraved in the third year of the first year of the Yuan Dynasty" on one side.

Seeing Liu Bei picking up the tiger talisman, the merchant said happily, "This is the talisman of Huben Zhonglang. Buy one and get one free. This is the servant's seal, you take it!"

The Tiger Talisman of Zhonglang General, Liu Bei suddenly remembered that Emperor Ling had a tradition of selling officials and nobles, how could he buy an official before he resigned, and hurriedly dropped the Tiger Talisman in his hand, saying: "This tiger is very realistic, very beautiful."

"Looks good, why don't you just take it? Just take care of my business."

Emperor Ling came in from the outside, Liu Bei was busy giving a gift, but Emperor Ling waved his hand: "This is not the Palace of Virtue and Government, so there is no need to give a gift. How about my brother's two seals and ribbons, if you count 2000 million yuan? You know, if others don't have 5000 million yuan, I will never sell it." Like, when Yuan Benchu ​​was the general of Huben Zhonglang, he paid 4000 million yuan! I count you 2000 million yuan, which is enough for brotherhood!"

"Your Majesty, Huben Zhonglang is an important position, and Huben Wei is also the court guard. It is difficult for a minister with few talents and poor morals to be competent!"

Liu Bei hurriedly refused.

Emperor Ling smiled slightly: "Xuande, do you think this official is too small? You can choose Chi Jinwu, Wei Wei and the five army captains as you like, and it is not impossible to discuss the three princes and nine ministers. At worst, I will be scolded by Master Yang. How about selling you once?" ?”

Liu Bei heard that Emperor Ling wanted to add an official rank to him, so he hurriedly refused: "Your Majesty, I don't mean that, I really can't be qualified for the position of Huben Zhonglang."

Emperor Ling said again: "Does my younger brother think the price is too high? This can also be discussed."
