He Hou is still so gorgeous and charming, but there is a sadness in his eyes that seems to never be dissolved.

Liu Yuan sat quietly, and He Hou was silent.

"Hey"

With a faint sigh, He Hou said: "Doesn't the champion Hou have anything to say?" ”

"Nope."

Liu Yuan lowered his head and closed his eyes and said lightly.

"Your Majesty's health is getting worse and worse"

"Don't talk this nonsense." Liu Yuan's face was expressionless: "The cause and effect, the queen must not say that she doesn't know!" ”

Empress He's eyes suddenly turned red, which made Liu Yuan have to sigh at the fickleness of women, especially women who hold power.

"I don't want to be the elder brother they forced to be, Taifu Yuan Kui, and Zhang let them say that if they don't do this, everyone will die without a corpse, and my poor child"

"What the hell does the queen want to say?" Liu Yuan was unmoved.

"Everyone understands people, so don't beat around the bush."

He Hou was stunned, and wondered if his charm had decreased.

"Okay," He looked full, and the red in his eyes quickly faded, and he returned to his grace and luxury.

"Ben Hou wants to let Bian'er ascend to the throne! I hope the champion Hou helps! ”

The corners of Liu Yuan's mouth curled, and after looking at Hehou, he said, "There is a great general, where is the turn to get Benhou's help?" The queen said seriously. ”

"What's more," Liu Yuan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Your Majesty is in the prime of life, is it too early for the queen to think about it?" ”

He was stunned again.

"It's been poisoned for a short time, isn't it?"

"Hehe, the queen thinks, when will Your Majesty return to heaven?" Liu Yuan's face flashed with mockery, and he said, "The general may have such thoughts, but Yuan Kui and Zhang Rang will never let His Majesty go away." ”

"Why" The queen had some doubts on her face: "Zhang Rang relied on His Majesty to have the power he has now, he naturally will not let His Majesty return, but His Majesty Yuan Kui was strong the year before last, and Yuan Kui hated it deeply"

"He's not ready!"

Liu Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Your Majesty will not die, and the world will not be chaotic." Yuan Kui is not ready to meet the troubled times-"

"So, Queen Mother, you're thinking too far."

Liu Yuan rode the lion and tiger beast, closed his eyes slightly, and slowly walked towards the Hou Mansion.

He is digesting what he has gained today.

The madness of the Spirit Emperor, what the calculation of the future. Yuan Kui, Zhang Rang, He Jin

Around power, they launched a brutal struggle without blood.

Emperor Ling wanted to take power, and even regain the glory of Emperor Wu, but he didn't have that ability, and he didn't have that mind. Zhang Rang wanted to be the master of that person all the time, but he couldn't get rid of the fetters of the Spirit Emperor, and if he lost the Spirit Emperor, he would be nothing if he was a eunuch. Empress He wanted to support her son, the prince, and ascend to the throne; He Jin also wants the prince to ascend the throne. But there are also huge differences between the two siblings. He Jin wants to be Wang Mang, and He Hou wants to be Queen Lu, but in the end, they will not be compatible.

As for Yuan Kui, in Liu Yuan's opinion, this is the worst, the most urban, and the most insidious old horseman, who is the biggest crocodile in the court.

Liu Yuan was sure that Yuan Kui definitely knew the dangers of the Taiping Sect, although it was possible that he didn't know Emperor Ling's intentions, but he didn't stop it, which shows that his heart was dirty and his intentions were rebellious!

He must be waiting, too! Like Emperor Ling, Yuan Kui is also waiting for the Taiping Sect to rise up, waiting for the Eastern Han Dynasty to lose its last vitality! He's preparing, preparing, preparing everything! Get ready for that opportunity

Liu Yuan returned to the mansion and instructed Liu Qi to prepare the personal guard camp, and then he went out of the mansion again to look at Cai's mansion.

Cai Yong saw Liu Yuan coming, and pulled him down from the study.

Cai Yong looked at Liu Yuan curiously and said, "Why hasn't Mrs. Yuan been in trouble today?" Zihong and said to the old man. ”

Liu Yuan smiled and said, "Uncle, the old thief has a handle in my hands, he doesn't dare." ”

"I see." Cai Yong nodded, didn't delve into it, and instead asked, "When will you go back to Youzhou?" ”

"Early in the morning. Your Majesty has asked me to leave tomorrow morning. Liu Yuan was silent for a moment and said, "Uncle, I want Zhao Ji to accompany me, you see"

Cai Yong's face stiffened, and then he showed reluctance.

Seeing this, Liu Yuan pondered it again and said, "Uncle will also go to Youzhou with me." ”

Cai Yong glanced at Liu Yuan and said, "Where do you say this?" ”

Liu Yuan stood up, walked over and closed the door of the study, then turned around and said solemnly to Cai Yong: "Luoyang is not safe. ”

Cai Yongqi said: "Luoyang is the center of Kyushu, how is it not safe?" ”

So Liu Yuan told Cai Yong what Emperor Ling said and his speculation as it was, and Cai Yong was stunned.

"Your Majesty, why is this? He didn't take the people of the world seriously! Cai Yong was shocked: "In this way, the big man is in danger!" ”

Cai Yong stood up, anxious.

"No, the old man has to go to the palace"

Liu Yuan grabbed Cai Yong and said, "Uncle, Your Majesty's mind has been decided, and it is irretrievable!" ”

Cai Yong looked at Liu Yuan's helpless eyes, stared at him for a long time, sighed dejectedly, sat on the chair, and said nothing.

Cai Yong is proficient in hundreds of schools, but he is still a Confucian in his bones, otherwise he would not be respected as a great Confucian. The Confucian idea of loyalty to the monarch made him suffer a lot. The Spirit Emperor is mediocre, his heart aches, and the Spirit Emperor is strong, and he is happy.

Cai Yong knew the current situation, and in the court, he never said a word, and he had a kind of mentality of getting by. That's because he knows that he can't fight Yuan Kui, a moth who has a dry country.

And he still has some luck in his heart, hoping that Emperor Ling can work hard to subdue these careerists.

But today, Liu Yuan's words broke his luck.

The Son of Heaven is crazy, and the country is about to overthrow!

Looking at Cai Yong's slightly gray face, Liu Yuan sighed and said, "This is the will of heaven, and manpower can't change it." Uncle, please come with me to Youzhou. ”

Cai Yong's eyes suddenly burst into a burst of intense light, he stood up violently, and drank: "The old man is the minister of the king, and Zihong doesn't need to say much about being loyal to the king." You just have to take Zhao Ji away, and the old man will stay in Luoyang and not go anywhere! ”

"Uncle"

"Go ahead," Cai Yong closed his eyes: "Take Zhao Ji away, don't pay attention to me." ”

Liu Yuan's brows furrowed fiercely, but he didn't know what to do. Cai Yong is a person he respects, and he is his father-in-law, can he still come and kidnap him? However, Liu Yuan turned his mind and thought that everyone in the world knew that Cai Yong was his Liu Yuan's father-in-law, as long as Youzhou was strong and Liu Yuan did not die, who would dare to touch Cai Yong a single hair?

So I was relieved. Cai Yong is now determined to refuse to go to Youzhou, and only when Emperor Ling dies and the Han Dynasty collapses can it be possible for him to change his mind.

Out of the study, Liu Yuan came to the backyard, and walked into Cai Yan's boudoir under the girl's eyebrows.

opened the bead curtain, and saw Cai Yan dressed in white, sitting quietly in front of the desk, holding a paper book, concentrating.

Liu Yuan didn't bother, he found a chair to sit down, bent his elbows to support his cheeks, and stared at Cai Yan without blinking.

I don't know how long it took, Cai Yan put down the book, stretched out his arms, and yawned gracefully, and for a while, his graceful posture bloomed, making Liu Yuan's eyes light up.

"Ah, Brother Zihong" Cai Yan couldn't help but be startled when he saw Liu Yuan, feeling his blazing eyes, and his pretty white face was flushed.

Liu Yuan smiled, walked over, grabbed Cai Yan's waist, and sat side by side with him.

"Zhaoji, come with me to Youzhou."

"Hmm." Cai Yan leaned on Liu Yuan's shoulder and said softly, "Father, he agreed?" ”

"Well, it's a pity that my uncle doesn't want to go with me."

"The father will never go, where the Son of Heaven is, the father will be there"

Knowing her father Mo Ruonu, Cai Yan is already clever and empathetic, how can she not know her father Cai Yan's surname?

"You can accompany your uncle and aunt tonight, and I will pick you up early tomorrow morning."

"Hmm."

Liu Yuan and Cai Yan stayed warm for a while, then returned to the Hou Mansion, leaving time for the three members of the Cai family.

Early in the morning, Liu Yuan put on his military uniform, stepped on the lion and tiger beast, and was about to go to Caifu to pick up people, but before he had gone far, he received Dian Wei.

Looking at Dian Wei's confused eyes, Liu Yuan's heart sank, and said, "Old Dian, what's wrong?" ”

"Young master, young master! Oh no, Miss Akihime was kidnapped! Dian Wei fell to the ground with a puff, tears fell, and his forehead hit the ground with a bang: "Young master, it's all my old man's negligence, you punish me!" ”

Liu Yuan's face changed, he jumped off his mount, pulled Dian Wei up, and drank: "What the hell is going on!?" ”

"Young master, my old man was stunned by the thief's way, and was stunned by the incense" Dian Wei said, his big dusty hand took out a piece of paper from his arms, handed it to Liu Yuan, and said: "The thief left a letterhead"

Liu Yuan took the letterhead and looked at it, and his face suddenly relaxed by half a point.

"Lao Dian, it's not your fault." Liu Yuan comforted Dian Wei in a harmonious voice, and ordered: "You go back to the house and take the brothers out of the city and back to Youzhou, I will be able to arrive later!" ”

"But" Although Dian Wei is illiterate, he doesn't know what the current situation is. It must have been a thief who kidnapped the young lady and lured Liu Yuan to go. There are many crises in this, and I am afraid that there will be great difficulties!

"Don't say much, do what you are told."

Dian Wei couldn't, so he had to take the order.

Liu Yuan glanced at the piece of paper again, then pinched it into powder, turned over the lion and tiger beast, patted the lion's head, and flew out of Luoyang like the wind.

"Yellow River crossing!"

Liu Yuan was full of murderous intentions in his heart

Let's talk about Dian Wei.

He was ordered to protect Cai Yan, but when this happened, he not only lost face, but also felt sorry for the young master. Instead of blaming, the young master comforted him, making him feel quite uncomfortable.

Seeing that the young master was in danger, how could Dian Wei calm down?

After gathering the guard battalion, Dian Wei told these things as they were, and said: "The young master is alone and in danger, and I am not derelict in my duty as a personal guard?" Brothers, get on the horse, secretly catch up with the young master, and act at the opportunity! ”

"Whoa!"

The soldiers agreed with a bang, turned into a torrent, and rushed out of Luoyang

Liu Yuan crouched on the back of the lion and tiger beast, reached out and touched the dark halberd hanging on the saddle, and his heart was extremely calm.

"Akihime better be okay, otherwise"

Liu Yuan's heart was surging with murderous energy, and when he sat down, the lion and tiger beast felt this heavy murderous aura, and couldn't help but increase his speed, four claws, and run faster!

The crossing of the Yellow River is in sight.

Suddenly, a feather arrow fell in mid-air, heading straight for Liu Yuan's head.

Liu Yuan smiled and grabbed it with a wave of his hand, but saw a roll of silk wrapped in the feather arrow.

Liu Yuan pulled the reins and opened the silk silk to see that there was only one line of words on it: "The mountain in the west." ”

Pulling out the lion's head, Liu Yuanqing shouted, and the lion and tiger beast rushed up the hill like lightning and went straight to the top of the mountain.

Suddenly, Liu Yuan felt a gaze like a sharp sword, shooting straight across the sky, he looked up, but saw two figures standing on the mountain in the distance. One black and one white. The white one is Cai Yan, and the black one is also a woman!

Who is she?
