At the end of the sixth year of the first peace, the Bingzhou army was defeated at Tianjing Pass, which led to the opening of the gate of Bingzhou, and all the people with dissident intentions in the world secretly contacted the imperial court in order to move the imperial court to their own forces. However, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, turned a deaf ear to this, and let the ministers of the court advise, but he did not make a choice. In desperation, the ministers within the court had no choice but to gather together to discuss which side to choose. It's a pity that just as they were discussing, Lu Bu's soldiers and horses left in Taiyuan suddenly arrived, and in an instant, Taiyuan was full of rumors, corpses were everywhere, and many ministers' mansions were killed by the state army, and the blood stretched beyond the palace walls.

Looking at the vacant position above the main hall, Liu Xie's face did not change, and he was still like every day, and Song Xian selected important matters to discuss. When they mentioned the battle with the Jizhou army, Liu Xie finally let go, but it was still not noticed, if it wasn't for Song Dian catching a glimpse of the fists clenched on his legs, I'm afraid Song Dian really thought that Liu Xie had accepted his fate. Thinking of the secret letter a few days ago, Song Dian raised the corners of his mouth, looking at the courtiers in the hall who were like clowns jumping off beams, and his heart was full of sneers.

Finally waited for the end of this unnutritious court meeting, Liu Xie slowly got up, and Song Dian announced his retirement from the court. Then he paced towards the inner palace. On the way back, Liu Xie looked around at the inner palace walls of different heights, and missed the north palace in Luoyang very much. Don't look at the fact that he has not been the emperor in the North Palace for a long time, but it is his home after all. If he was given a choice, he would rather be a puppet emperor in Luoyang Palace than live in this palace converted from a palace.

"Song Changshi, I heard that the Marquis of Zhenbei has completed the renovation of Weiyang Palace. Do you think he wants the widow to live there, or does he come and live by himself? Liu Xie, who didn't squint, still walked in front, but the words he said were like thunder. Song Dian, as a subordinate of the Marquis of Zhenbei, of course knew Chang'an's intention to build Weiyang Palace. But at this time, does he dare to tell the truth? What is the difference between letting Liu Xie live and Zhenbei Hou's own residence?

So, Song Dian bowed slightly, bowed to Liu Xie's back, and then smiled and said, "This old minister doesn't know, but there are many rumors in the palace that the Marquis of Zhenbei intends to establish himself as emperor, and the reason is because he changed the official system without His Majesty's permission." But Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, when you have your own insight, how dare you judge for the Lord when the old minister is a eunuch! ”

It can be said that Song Dian's words reached Liu Xie's heart, don't look at how indignant he is at Long Jun between his words. But Song Dian has a saying that is very right, he should have his own subjective judgment. Besides, how many rumors in the palace can be beneficial to other princes? What Long Jun repaired Weiyang Palace for couldn't be investigated at all, after all, he also knew about those two women. So Liu Xie turned around and asked meaningfully, "The ministers of the court asked me to move the capital to Jizhou, some asked me to move the capital to Yanzhou, and some even asked me to choose Jingyi and Yizhou." What do you think I should choose? ”

Temptation, naked temptation. Now Liu Xie doesn't trust anyone anymore, even Song Dian, who has been serving him since he ascended the throne. However, Song Dian was very familiar with dealing with this kind of low-level temptation, so when Liu Xie's eyes gradually turned cold, Song Dian raised his head, put his hands on his belly, and said with a smile: "Since Your Majesty has your own decision, why do you bother to ask the old minister?" is still the same sentence, the old minister is a crippled person, and many things are naturally not as thoughtful as His Majesty. Whether it is Yuan Benchu of the Fourth World and the Third Duke, or Cao Mengde, who is worried about the country and the people, which of these people is worthy of His Majesty's trust? As for those royal relatives and nobles, they wanted to attack Dong back then, but they didn't send a single soldier, and the wolf's ambition was obvious. ”

Hearing this, Liu Xie glanced at Song Dian with a smile, and when he smiled slightly, Liu Xie put his hands in his sleeves and said in a deep voice, "You mean that I should choose the Zhenbei Hou or Liu Xuande or Jiangdong who didn't take the initiative to invite me?" Do you know what Liu Xuande did in Qingzhou? Win the hearts of the people and shape prestige, even Tao Qian of Xuzhou is looking forward to him, as for the Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian, you must know better than me that the jade seal was lost in the hands of Yuan Shu, and he is also suspicious. And Zhenbei Hou... Hehe! ”

Seeing Liu Xie's sneer when he mentioned Long Jun, Song Dian smiled silently, and already understood Liu Xie's choice in his heart. I think that Liu Bian once commented on Long Jun in front of the Empress Dowager He, saying that he was a loyal and traitorous figure, and no one in the world can see Long Jun's true intentions until today, and Liu Xie happened to hear this evaluation from Liu Bian's mouth. So it's more important for him to have an unclear attitude than a clear attitude, because he still has room to maneuver.

On the second day, the court discussion was still the same, compared with yesterday, there were fewer ministers today, and the courtiers in the palace had disappeared from four. Fortunately, the remaining courtiers already knew Lu Bu's thoughts and knew that the other party would not relax their internal management at this point in time. Therefore, in today's court discussion, everyone did not mention the war, and all of them were transferred to the people's livelihood. However, most of the land in the state has been lost, and only two counties remain, so there is nothing worth studying.

Then when Song Xian called Hu Chuquan to the court, the ministers in the palace were interested. However, when Hu Chuquan cried and complained that the territory was occupied, Liu Xie slowly got up, walked to Hu Chuquan's side in the puzzled eyes of the ministers, and comforted, "Hu Chushan Yu's territory is occupied, and this matter is deeply saddened, but now that the war is imminent, Meiji can only wait for Wenhou to win the battle for you. ”

If it weren't for the fact that I saw it from a young age, I am afraid that everyone present today would have thought that it was a delusion. Liu Xie was actually looking for reinforcements for Lu Bu, and such an unbelievable thing was no stranger than the sun rising from the west. But fortunately, they all knew their current identities, so they spoke out to persuade Hu Chuquan, until this unworthy Southern Xiongnu Shan Yu, after a burst of praise, promised to send troops to the party immediately. Only then did the crowd take back those disgusting words of praise.

Seeing that the effect had been achieved, Liu Xie picked up Hu Chu Quan with one hand, looked around at the courtiers in the hall, and said, "With the help of Hu Chu Single, Wen Hou will definitely win." The widow promised that if Hu Chef Shan Yu could defeat Yuan Cao's rebels, Lone would prepare a marquis position for Shan Yu to reassure the people of the four seas. ”

"The position of the Marquis?" Hu Chuquan, who had just gotten up, had round eyes and a look of surprise on his face. You must know that Long Jun and Lu Bu are both marquises, and he can live side by side with the two of them, so wouldn't it prove his bravery in calling Chuquan? So Hu Chuquan knelt directly in front of Liu Xie and thanked him.

After dealing with the matter of Hu Chuquan, Liu Xie glanced at Song Xian, who had an inexplicable expression, and strode back to the dragon seat, waiting for him to sit down and Song Dian announced the end of the early dynasty according to the system. Then without waiting for Liu Xie to leave Song Xian first, he strode out of the hall, not giving Liu Xie, the emperor, face. Seeing this, the other courtiers hurriedly saluted Liu Xie and slowly withdrew from the palace.

Looking at Song Xian's back, which had not disappeared, Liu Xie rubbed his chin and asked with a smile, "Song Changshi, what do you mean by this family?" didn't wait for the widow to leave, he dared to leave first, isn't it too indifferent to the widow? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, as the saying goes, one side of water still supports two types of people, and of course there will be two kinds of courtiers with that surname, so there is nothing surprising! However, since His Majesty has asked the minister, the minister has something that he knows should not be said, and he must also advise His Majesty! After a pause, Song Dian bowed down and walked to Liu Xie's side, and whispered in his ear, "Your Majesty wants to use Huchuquan to reclaim the right policy, and the traces are too heavy. If Song Xian is an ordinary person, he is Lu Bu's cronies, and he has a good relationship with Chen Gong. In case he informs Lu Bu of this matter, it is not a pity for us and other lonely old men to die, but Your Majesty will be in deep prison! ”

"What? Does he Lu Bu dare to kill the king? Now in this situation, he has to put his mind in this Jinyang Palace, I'm afraid it won't be long before we can receive the report of the fall of the party! Seeing that Song Xian's back had disappeared, Liu Xie got up and left the hall, and when he left, Liu Xie also patted Song Dian's shoulder, as if he was cheering Song Dian.

"Heaven must first make it mad if it wants to make it die! The Lord is honest and does not deceive me! After Liu Xie left, Song Dian straightened his waist, glanced at the other party's back, and then looked in the direction where the courtiers left, and smiled silently. What Liu Xie is doing today is not only to explore Song Xian's bottom line, but also to see the true hearts of those people to the Son of Heaven. Those who say what they say are just grass on the wall, and those who don't say a word about self-preservation can only be used but not believed. In the end, only he, Song Dian, really got Liu Xie's trust.

The Southern Xiongnu army rushed to the aid of the party, Yuan Shao and others heard about it, and scolded, the eldest son of the 30,000 and state troops had caused them a lot of losses, in case they had to face the provocation of the Guanzhong army next, how could the soldiers and horses of Jizhou still resist the Guanzhong army. So Yuan Shao didn't hide his selfishness anymore, Yan Liangwen and Chou went into battle, and the Jizhou military horses rushed towards the eldest son city like locusts all over the world.

Seeing this, Cao Cao immediately ordered people to rush westward, capture the Yan clan along the Qinshui, and prepare to bypass Shangdang and take the lead in Taiyuan. A letter from Taiyuan's secret agent, Song Xian killed in Taiyuan City, and had killed half of the courtiers, and as far as he knew, Zhang Liao was blocking the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong in the river at the moment, if he got the opportunity to take Taiyuan. Then he will become the third person after Dong Zhuo Lu Bu to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Cao Cao's side sent troops to the Xi clan, the coalition army received the news that the Guanzhong army had captured Yanmen and defeated Huaxiong. Suddenly, the morale of the coalition army was greatly boosted, and they took the city of the eldest son in one go. But who knew that Lu Bu still did not give up, and after absorbing the army of the Southern Xiongnu, the 40,000 troops continued to retreat to Tunliu, as if they did not give Yuan Shao and others a chance. So Yuan Shao was ruthless, and ordered the local garrisons in Jizhou to gather in Jingcheng and enter Yangqu, striving to rush to Taiyuan before Cao Cao and Long Jun.

At the same time, Long Jun, who was confronting Zhang Liao in the river, suddenly raised his troops to the north, intending to assemble with the Guanzhong army in the north. Seeing this, Zhang Liao followed without saying a word. On both sides of the river, the two sides played a game of opposing each other. At the end of the sixth year of Chuping, the Guanzhong army gathered 50,000 soldiers and horses in the clouds and surrounded Zhang Liao in Shaling in order to surrender!
