The news of the destruction of Hangu Pass on the fifth day soon spread to the imperial capital, and Yuan Shao, who was sitting in the imperial capital, could no longer sit still, and while angrily scolding his cousin Yuan Shu for being incompetent, he was anxious to consult with Cao Cao about countermeasures.

"Yuan Highway is incompetent, I misunderstand my big things! With an army of 200,000 under his hand, he wants him to defend it for half a month, and he will lose it to me in five days, if he is not my own cousin, I will have to treat him with a capital crime!" Yuan Shao said very angrily.

Cao Cao persuaded him: "Don't worry at the beginning, it's better to calm down first, after all, this matter can't be blamed entirely on the road, no one thought that the Xiliang army would be so powerful, but it's useless to be anxious now, the key is to see how to plan in the future." ”

"Then Meng De has a good plan?" Yuan Shao asked.

Cao Cao said: "I can't talk about good policies, just a little idea, now that Hangu Pass is broken, the imperial capital is empty, and the reinforcements of the princes are still on the way, in this way, there is no way to prevent Dong Zhongying from entering Beijing, in this case, the only thing we can do now is to wait and see what happens, and wait for Dong Zhongying to enter Beijing before making plans." ”

"What, wait?" Yuan Shao said in surprise: "Aren't we going to escape now?" You all know the purpose of Dong Zhongying's entry into Beijing, it is nothing more than to take my place, we can be regarded as opponents with him, won't he take us under the knife?"

Cao Cao shook his head and said: "After all, Dong Zhongying is a prince of a feudal town, and he has no power in the emperor, so after he enters the imperial capital, he will definitely try to win us over in order to consolidate his power, so as long as we don't take the initiative to provoke him, he won't do anything to us." ”

"But ......"

"Don't be!" Cao Cao interrupted Yuan Shao's words and said: "Dong Zhongying will definitely attract the attention of the people of the world when he enters Beijing, he has not yet reached the point of madness, and he will also be jealous of the princes of the world, and he will never harm us, nor dare to do too much, besides, isn't there still your Lord Sima sitting here, his old man is back to the void and the true one, and he will definitely be able to protect you!"

When Yuan Shao heard this, he came to his senses and said: "Yes, I forgot about the three dukes, with them, forgive him Dong Zhongying didn't dare to come nonsense, but could use the power of the three dukes to deal with him!"

So Yuan Shao listened to Cao Cao's words, chose to stay in the imperial capital, and instructed others not to resist, so as not to cause unnecessary casualties, anyway, Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing has become inevitable, and there is no need to provoke him again.

At the same time, in the harem, Empress Dowager He was secretly summoning a woman, if Long Xiangtian was here, she would definitely be surprised, because Empress Dowager He summoned Situ Wang Yun's adopted daughter Xiu'er.

"Damn the Ten Standing Servants, kill my brother, but the Yuan family is even more hateful, they are the masterminds behind the scenes, my poor brother!"

Although Empress Dowager He is the queen mother and a figure in the period of the first emperor, she has a good appearance, so she still looks young, and she doesn't look much older than Xiu'er, but her real age is a big difference. Empress Dowager He has a graceful and luxurious temperament, and He Nachu's moving eyes can be described as a generation of stunners, no wonder she was extremely favored by the first emperor. And the Xiu'er at the bottom, her appearance and temperament are not inferior to the Empress Dowager He, although there is no Empress Dowager He's luxurious costumes as a foil, but the simple clothes show her sweetness and elegance, and whether it is face or figure, it is above the Empress Dowager He, if the Empress Dowager He is a beauty, then Xiu'er can be said to be the best beauty.

"Don't be sad, it's all because Xiu'er is not good and didn't notice it in time, which led to that kind of thing. Xiu'er comforted Empress Dowager He.

Empress Dowager He shook her head and said: "How can you blame this, if you want to blame it, you can blame our family for being too careless at that time, thinking that after Zhang Rang's death, the general trend has been decided, so she is in a hurry to go to retreat, otherwise it will be difficult to let those little people take advantage of it!"

"But Xiu'er hasn't been able to help her mother since she entered Beijing!" Xiu'er said in frustration.

"Don't worry, Xiu'er, you are the best disciple of our Tianxiang Pavilion this year, and your master handed you over to me is also a point of explanation, don't worry, there will always be a time when you will be useful!" Empress Dowager He said with a smile.

"What did the lady do you mean by summoning Xiu'er today?" asked Xiu'er.

Empress Dowager He said: "Originally, Yuan Benchu, the little son of the Yuan family, was in power, and our family planned to let you find a way to get close to Yuan Benchu and break into their interior, but now there is no need for this, because Dong Zhongying of Xiliang will soon enter Beijing, and as soon as Dong Zhongying enters Beijing, Yuan Benchu will have to step down, so you can cancel the previous action against Yuan Benchu." ”

Xiu'er was surprised: "Ah! Dong Zhongying is going to enter Beijing? Didn't I hear that they had a heavy army in Hangu Pass, why was Hangu Pass broken in just a few days?"

Empress Dowager He nodded and said: "According to the news we have gotten, this matter is absolutely true, Yuan Highway, as the commander of the Hangu related army, is Yuan Benchu's cousin, but he is useless, and he only lost Hangu Pass after five days, you also know that now there are no troops to dispatch in the imperial capital, so in a few days, Dong Zhongying will enter Beijing." ”

"Ah, Niangniang, what should we do then?" asked Xiu'er.

Empress Dowager He thought for a while and said: "Don't worry, whether it is a blessing or a curse will not fall on our heads, we can wait and see how Dong Zhongying's ability is, if he can't fight the power of the imperial capital, then there is no need to pay attention, if he is strong, we have to find a way to control him!"

Xiu'er knows. Xiu'er nodded and said.

Empress Dowager He nodded and admonished Xiu'er: "Xiu'er, you have to remember that the rules of our Tianxiang Pavilion, first, are not to be true to men, and second, to strive to become a woman who rules the world, and to make everyone in the world submit to our women's skirts." Xiu'er, you know, our Tianxiang Pavilion has a long history, there have been many outstanding women, far away Daji, Xi Shi not to say, near Lu Hou, Feiyan Zhenjun, which is not famous in the world, playing with men in the palm of the hand, and this generation, just count our family has the highest achievement, now you are the Empress Dowager of Xianhan, my son is the emperor, and those junior sisters of our family, hehe, have become the wives of the princes, but this achievement of our family is far from enough, what is our ultimate goal? It is to use men, and then get rid of men, and finally do not need men, and become the lord of the world!"

"Xiu'er understands that if you want to control the world, you must first control men, and only by controlling men can you finally control the world!" Xiu'er said.

Empress Dowager He nodded with satisfaction, and asked Xiu'er to go back to Wang Yun's mansion, Xiu'er came out this time on the grounds that she went to Cai's mansion to play with Cai Yan, and she was afraid that others would be suspicious after she went back.

Xiu'er quietly came out of the palace without letting anyone else find out, so she walked back to Wang Yun's mansion with peace of mind, and began to think crankily in her mind.

Alas, why are people always thirsting for power, you fight for me, Shi Changshou, General He, Yuan Benchu, Dong Zhongying, the imperial capital is really a place of right and wrong! When I was a child, I always longed to come to the imperial capital, but after seeing the truth clearly, I just wanted to escape from here.

It is understandable that men are keen on power, but why should they be so obsessed with power as a woman? Is power really so fascinating? Will they really be happy if they control the world? But I don't think so! I even want to find someone I love one day, stay with each other, stay away from this world, and no longer care about the disputes in this world, how beautiful it would be! But I am destined not to get such a result, just because as a disciple of Tianxiang Pavilion, I am destined to charm the common people.

I can only obey the order, step by step into it, I can't escape, because I can't be sorry for the master, if I hadn't met the master, I would have died a long time ago, the name Diao Chan was given to me by the master, and the name Xiu'er was also arranged for me by the master, the master values me so much, no, I can't let her down!

Thinking of this, Xiu'er suddenly smiled unconsciously, shook her head, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart: Alas, the master is really still the master! I expected that I would never be able to pass the love level, indeed, I longed for the love of men and women, and longed for each other to love each other, if there was a man in the future who was willing to give up the whole world for me, I would rather go away with him, and I could not care about anything! Hehe, as the most outstanding disciple of Tianxiang Pavilion, am I too willful? If I let Niangniang know my thoughts, I am afraid that I will have the heart to kill me!

Thinking about it, Xiu'er suddenly remembered the silly-looking Long Xiangtian in her mind, as soon as she thought of Long Xiangtian, Xiu'er felt funny, and her mood suddenly improved, Xiu'er felt that he was very different from other men, and every time he saw himself, he would blush and smile, unlike other men who always couldn't hide their lust.

I don't know how Xiangtian is, I haven't seen him since he left Caifu, but I heard that he is still in the imperial capital, I don't know when I can see him again, well, I don't mean anything else, I just think he's very interesting. Xiu'er thought to herself.

Soon, a few days later, Dong Zhuo has been in the imperial capital, the vanguard of three thousand flying bear army has been stationed outside the imperial capital Luoyang City, the rest of the army is also coming one after another, making the imperial capital panic, but unexpectedly, Dong Zhuo has strictly restrained his corporaries, the army and the people have not committed any crimes, Dong Zhuo since entering Beijing, went to the palace to meet the Han Shaodi very respectfully, and explained to the young emperor that he was the former general He Jin's edict, so he led the troops into Beijing, the purpose is to protect the emperor, in addition, for those who had prevented him from entering Beijing, such as Yuan Shao and others, Dong Zhuo never cared, and often invited them to banquets, and actively dealt with the affairs of the imperial capital, maintaining the stability of the imperial capital, showing a completely loyal minister, in this regard, Yuan Shao also resigned from the position of general with interest and gave it to Dong Zhuo. After Liu Bei and Long Xiangtian learned of this, they felt that the imperial capital was no longer in danger, so they all came back, but Long Xiangtian was still very surprised, because this was not the Dong Zhuo he imagined, Long Xiangtian was very surprised, why is there such a big difference between Dong Zhuo in this world and the one depicted in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"? Dong Zhuo in this world did not do anything to harm the imperial capital, compared with the image of Dong Zhuo in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it is completely like two different people. Although Long Xiangtian was puzzled, he was also glad that at least such Dong Zhuo would not be in much danger, and the imperial capital would be safe, but such Dong Zhuo could not attract the crusade of the princes at all, and whether the princes could still fight against Dong in the future was a problem, and this was another problem that Long Xiangtian should make a difficult mistake.
