Chapter 39: See the Little Overlord
Liu Xie felt that he was silently happy in his heart, at least now he couldn't get to the bottom of it, as for what impact his departure would have on the battle between Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, he didn't have much to think about.
Of course, if Yuan Shao can really take advantage of this opportunity to completely destroy Cao Cao, Liu Xie is still happy, after all, when picking an opponent, it is better to pick a weaker one, right?
Wu County is getting closer and closer to Liu Xie, and unlike the embarrassment of the previous few days, Liu Xie has made up for his glorious image after slowly moving forward in the past few days.
And after this journey of time, Liu Xie seems to have regained a little bit of his body from his previous life.
He felt that when he met Sun Ce, if Sun Ce agreed not to ride a horse and not use a long weapon, it was estimated that he would not be his opponent.
Of course, that's all for later.
Just when Liu Xie and his party were walking in the direction of Wu County, a horse ran in the opposite direction not far from them.
The final destination of this horse riding was Guandu, and they rushed to Guandu without sleep, and finally arrived at the place where Cao's army was stationed before Liu Xie and the others arrived in Wu County.
He came to see Guo Jia.
Under the dim candlelight, Guo Jia was holding an ancient book and flipping through it, when suddenly, the door of the room was opened, and a black-clothed figure quickly flashed in.
There are not many people who can enter Guo Jia's room like this, even if Cao Cao came, they all learned that they would say goodbye to him to show respect for him, and the person who appeared in front of him now was definitely Guo Jia's cronies, the kind of cronies who only listened to him.
"How?"
The man seemed to know what Guo Jia was asking, shook his head expressionlessly, and said: "He seems to have prepared in advance, as for why it was exposed, I don't understand, there is no mistake in this strategy." ”
The man in black still didn't have any expression, but his words were quite determined.
Guo Jia sighed, and after a while, he whispered: "You go and rest, this matter is over, don't tell anyone about it again." ”
The man in black sighed softly, and then, as he had come, he dodged away.
Guo Jia stood up and dressed up and went out directly, although it was late at night, he knew that some changes had to be made immediately.
This night, Guo Jia stayed in Cao Cao's for several hours, and then Cao Hong, Xun You, Cheng Yu and others went one after another, obviously a big change in strategy took place within Cao Jun in the middle of the night, but no one knows how it changed.
The time has come to May, the weather is gradually getting hotter, and everyone understands that Yuan Shao's onslaught on Guandu is about to begin.
On Cao Cao's side, the news that Liu Xie was not in Xuchang was still not revealed, and what made Cao Cao a little curious was that there was nothing related to Liu Xie in the news from Jiangdong.
One day at the end of May of the fifth year of Jian'an, Liu Xie finally rushed to Wu County accompanied by Zhang Hong.
In fact, since entering the realm controlled by Sun Ce, there were many more people around them who were protecting them, but no one knew what the roles were in this group.
Even when Zhang Hong took Liu Xie into Wu County, his identity was still kept secret, and except for Sun Ce, no one could know who arrived in Wu County.
Zhang Hong even used his identity as a cover and quietly sent Liu Xie into Sun Ce's mansion.
Liu Xie understood Sun Ce's caution in this matter, and Liu Xie understood that Sun Ce must have one more thing he wanted to ask himself face-to-face, so when he entered Sun Ce's mansion, he was quite calm.
"Your Majesty, the two of you should meet alone, and some things are better explained to Your Majesty by Bo Fu in person."
When he arrived at the door of Sun Ce's mansion, Zhang Hong said such a thing to Liu Xie, the meaning of which Liu Xie understood, if Zhang Hong went, he would probably be embarrassed in front of Zhang Hong, this is what Zhang Hong did in order to save face for himself.
"In that case, thank you, sir."
Liu Xie didn't talk nonsense, and after dropping such a sentence, he strode into Sun Ce's mansion under the guidance of Sun Ce's guards.
Because no one knows about this matter yet, Sun Ce didn't greet Liu Xie with much fanfare, and even the guards who brought Liu Xie into Sun Ce's study obviously didn't know Liu Xie's true identity, and thought it was the doorman Sun Ce wanted to recruit recently.
And Sun Ce's place of meeting place in his study also shows that in his eyes, this meeting is obviously a private meeting.
"The lord has been waiting in the room for a long time."
Brought Liu Xie to the door of such a quiet room in the depths of the house, Sun Ce's guards saluted Liu Xie, and left on their own, obviously having received Sun Ce's orders a long time ago, and their conversation should only be heard by the two of them.
After the guards left, Liu Xie took a deep breath and directly stretched out his hand to push the door open.
This is a spacious room, decorated with antique colors, and the house is also burning with the musk that can be seen everywhere in the palace of Xuchang in the past.
The room is full of ancient books placed on the shelves on all sides, and Liu Xie doesn't have to think about it to know that they must be some military books and war strategies.
Behind the large table in one of them, there was a young man who was a little different from what Liu Xie had imagined.
Sun Ce is known as the little overlord of Jiangdong, the name is not given for nothing, how many enemy soldiers he has to kill on the battlefield to get such a title, Liu Xie doesn't know, but it must be indispensable.
But sitting there now was a young man dressed in a moon-white robe, with his hair scattered behind him, without a beard under his chin, with a fair complexion, a slender body, and no expression on his face.
This is naturally Sun Ce, because apart from him, there is no one in Wu County who is worthy of sitting here, of course, this time point has to be placed before, and now that Liu Xie is here, of course he feels that he is also qualified to sit here.
"Minister, Sun Ce, I have seen Your Majesty."
Before Liu Xie could finish his observation, Sun Ce directly got up and saluted Liu Xie with a fist, and then quickly sat down again, the whole process can be said to be vigorous and resolute, and Liu Xie was not given a chance to speak at all.
Seeing this, Liu Xie could only nod slightly to himself, and then looked around, and could only sit opposite Sun Ce by himself, and looked at him across a table.
Sun Ce was still indifferent, and after saying a polite word, he was speechless, obviously wanting to give Liu Xie a little bit of color, and see what the reaction of His Majesty the Emperor in name was.
