Dong Cheng is very "trustworthy". Since he didn't turn away Fu Zhu and Yuan Shang at the beginning, now he brought them into the palace at his request. But this process is a little unsightly.

Dong Cheng, as a relative of the royal family, doesn't know if Cao Cao is still concerned about the face of the royal family, or the reason why he doesn't put Dong Cheng's energy in his eyes at all, Cao Cao didn't stop Dong Cheng from entering the palace at any time, and even the soldiers of the Cao army who were in charge at the palace gate did not let Dong Cheng go without a detailed investigation of the attendants who helped Dong Guiren report his illness.

"Uncle Guo's great grace, if you can persuade the Son of Heaven to make a decree this time and help my son-in-law get what he wants, he will definitely be rewarded in the future!" Dressed as an internal servant, his face was also coated with a thick layer of fat powder, revealing a sense of iron-blue frustration, and when he was introduced by Dong Cheng to the palace gate to meet the Son of Heaven's residence, he bowed down and said to Dong Cheng.

"Don't blame the prince in his heart, just let Your Excellency suffer such humiliation!" Dong Cheng had an indifferent expression, glanced at the two of them who were uncomfortable, and Yuan Shang, groaned slightly, and said: "As for repaying and other words, there is no need to mention them in the future, if you really have the heart, think about the person where you came!" ”

"Huh?" Seeing that Dong Cheng only said such a sentence without a beginning or an end, he turned around and entered first, and glanced at Yuan Shang in frustration, not understanding the meaning of Dong Cheng's words for a while.

"Someone from here? Sir, Uncle Guo is talking about Qin ...... That one? Yuan Shang was very alert, raised his eyebrows suddenly, and said to Frustration. After all, this is within the palace city, and God knows which corner has Cao Cao's eyeliner. Therefore, when Yuan Shang mentioned Qin Xu's name, he also deliberately lowered his voice.

"Qin Xu?" The frustration did not have the same concerns as Yuan Shang, for the frustration who was able to put forward the strategy of "coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes". Maybe it's because he planned that this time it was just a one-shot deal, as long as he could persuade the Son of Heaven to give Yuan Shang an identity, it didn't matter if he was heard by others. Anyway, Cao Cao's army is now trapped in the quagmire of Hebei and is eager to get out, even if it is really detected by Cao Jun's eyes, there is the identity of the Yuan family in Hebei, and under the premise that Cao Cao and Yuan Xi are **, I believe that no one will act rashly. Therefore, the courage of frustration here is much greater than that outside. After hearing Yuan Shang's words, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "Childe has thought a lot, and now I am waiting for the most important thing." is to find a way to persuade the Son of Heaven to at least give Gongzi you, even if it is just a Jizhou vacancy, it is enough to make the two people with evil intentions have some scruples. There will be a clear day in the future, but it is not appropriate to be sad about it at this time! ”

"That's what the gentleman said!" Yuan Shang's face was noncommittal. Nodding. He whispered, "It's just that Mr. can think about how to convince the Son of Heaven?" I heard that although today's son is young, he has also experienced the rebellion of the Yellow Turban, Dong Zhuo, and Li Guo, and now he has fallen into the hands of Cao Cao and is sitting in the deep palace. We are so rashly begging, and it is contrary to the will of Cao Cao, the lord of Xuchang now, I am afraid it will not be easy! ”

"Don't worry, childe!" The corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, revealing a very good hint of hidden sarcasm, and he laughed in a low voice: "If nothing else." The Son of Heaven already knows the intention of this coming. And I will definitely agree to our request, not to mention, and will also give the lord a big false position! ”

"Is that true, sir?" Yuan Shang's face was full of surprise and asked in disbelief.

"If the lord didn't listen to the slander of Xu Yu and other villains who betrayed the lord when the first emperor fell into Chang'an, he lost the first hand. Now I'm afraid it's time for me to worry about such things! Fu Zhu did not answer Yuan Shang's question directly, and closed his eyes and said.

"Come with so-and-so, see you in the Son of Heaven!" Yuan Shang wanted to ask again, but he saw Dong Cheng's figure outside the palace gate coming out sideways, waving at the two, but there was no situation where the Son of Heaven was summoned by the eunuch when he received the minister, and the confidence on his face became stronger and stronger.

It was noon, but there were several butter giant waxes lit in the slightly dim palace, which looked dim and illusory, in sharp contrast to the bright sky outside, Liu Xie, the son of heaven, was dressed in a black regular clothes, and sat on the soft couch above the nine steps, his slightly immature face was full of tiredness, which was very different from other young people of this age.

"The two of them are the righteous men of Hebei called in the mouth of Uncle Guo! The two of you came to meet you this time, what is the so-called thing? Liu Xie's voice was a little hoarse during the change of voice, and when he saw the frustration and Yuan Shang after the ceremony, he couldn't tell whether he was happy or disgusted in his eyes, in short, his eyes were very complicated.

Understandable. Needless to say, Yuan Shang wanted to set up another Son of Heaven in order to continue the glory of the family from the dragon's merits, but he was also the third son of Yuan Shao, who was the leader of Dong Zhuo's coalition alliance against the princes of the Tiger and the Snake Tail, and he was also the nephew of Yuan Shu, who was rumored to be the emperor of the country.

On the other hand, Liu Xie is more knowledgeable. Just because such a strategy of coercing the Son of Heaven to make the princes was broken by the people in front of him, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Cao Cao, and even Yuan Shao, who had no heart and courage, a group of people almost came one after another, in order to make him a habitable strange goods, in order to achieve the goal of his own strong power. All the courtesy, righteousness, honesty, loyalty, and sincerity of the ministers, under the temptation of this naked (naked) interest, have become empty talk.

In the past, Liu Xie only wanted to eat the old Yuan family and this vicious person alive and didn't understand his hatred, but now he wants to meet these two people with Yan Yue for the sake of a bigger and most recent "threat", that is, Liu Xie's temperament has been worn out differently from his calm age after many events, otherwise, just with Dong Cheng's face, maybe Liu Xie will really borrow Cao Cao's hand and avenge this personal vendetta first.

"I came here to dedicate Jizhou to His Majesty!" Compared with Liu Xie's trickery, Frustration is much more straightforward, and when Liu Xie first met the two of them, there was a look of disgust in his eyes that was difficult to hide, but he had already been seen by Frustration. Since there is no possibility for each other, at least on the surface, to be happy and recount the righteousness of the monarch and ministers, there is only interests that can impress each other. Frustrated, Liu Xie, who deliberately gave the two of them a horse, said the word flat. He stood up and said.

"Huh! Joke! I don't know when Jizhou has become my Han foreign country? I am a Han land, why do I need you to come and sacrifice? Because of his frustrated behavior, Liu Xie added a little disgust. If it weren't for Dong Cheng's hard eyes on the side. In addition, when the two of them had not yet entered the palace, Dong Cheng's discussion on how to use these two people to curb Cao Cao's power without hurting the relationship between Liu Xie and Cao Cao, it was impossible to say that Liu Xie, who thought that he could suppress the anger in his heart, was about to explode. Let these two "traitors" who don't know what the Son of Heaven is, and feel the power of the Son of Heaven.

"Is that what Your Majesty really thinks?" Seeing that Liu Xie was not angry because of his disrespectful words, he knew that the thoughts of the Son of Heaven that he had just talked about with Yuan Shang were as he expected. Therefore, he became more and more unscrupulous in speaking. said: "What is the current situation of the Son of Heaven, whether it is Uncle Guo, me, or even His Majesty himself. All have a deep understanding. Even if he had acted rashly before, it was just to be loyal to the Lord, but now that the world has changed, he has been deeply favored by the first emperor. That's why there is a matter of advice from the gentleman today. If not. If you have no enmity with others, you can learn from others to serve Cao Cao, and you can save your life if you want to, so why take such a risk and ask Uncle Guo to take me into the palace to meet Your Majesty? I also hope that Your Majesty can understand the painstaking efforts of the ministers and others, and don't let Cao Cao, who obviously has Dong Zhuo's ambitions, have a chance to take advantage of it. ”

"According to you, is it possible that it is mine?" Listening to this seemingly heartfelt exhortation. But when I hear it, I think about it, and I want to ask for retribution for the unfinished "work". Liu Xie was just before the two were not summoned to meet. I heard Dong Cheng talk about the purpose of the two of them coming this time, and I also wanted to see what the two people who were fighting their own ideas in the past would look like in front of them now, but I didn't expect it to be such a situation. How can anyone ask for someone like this? Fortunately, because of his childhood experience, Liu Xie developed the "habit" of not easily showing negative emotions, so he did not turn his face on the spot.

"Your Majesty is serious!" Faced with the gradually stiff situation, he gave Yuan Shang, who was beside him an anxious look, a reassuring look, and said to Liu Xie: "The minister is not lying. What is the current situation of His Majesty, the ministers do not know. But in the past, when Cao Cao only had one place in Yanzhou, it was already a trembling of the world's heroes, and after Yuzhou and Si Li, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry that was powerful in the past was no longer its opponent, and Lu Bu, who also crossed the two states of Qingxu at that time, did not dare to suppress its front, so His Majesty is now fortunate to be in Xuchang, and now Cao Cao has held Yan, Yu, Si Li and Yongliang, Jingxiang, if he gets Hebei again, who in the world can still curb its momentum? Moreover, even if Cao Cao gets along well with His Majesty and is a real loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, but now that Cao Cao is in Hebei, if the army returns victorious, someone will definitely come to the table and ask His Majesty to reward Cao Cao for his efforts in pacifying Hebei. It's just that I don't know Your Majesty, how to reward Cao Gong, who is already the top of the martial arts, the top of the Marquis of Wuping, who is already the pinnacle of the martial arts? The ministers have the courage to steal the name of His Majesty, don't they want to follow the example of the Marquis of Huaiyin in the early Han Dynasty to seal the king of Qi? ”

"You ......" frustrated words, although the tone was extremely flat, it didn't seem to be affected by Liu Xie's words before, but the meaning of the words was that Liu Xie sat up straight violently, and he didn't even care about the case in front of the bed, and looked at Frustration directly.

Huaiyin Hou, of course Liu Xie knows who it is. Although 400 years have passed, as the Son of Heaven, he can always know some secrets. And this old matter of the Marquis of Huaiyin is exactly what anyone who is the son of heaven of the Han Dynasty is most worried about. According to legend, in the past, the big man could win the world, and this old brother contributed the most. Although Emperor Liu Bang was shocked at his master's merits, he had to be forced to make a promise of the Son of Heaven that "there is no sword to kill the Han family in the world" for the sake of the political stability at that time. In the end, if it weren't for the fact that Empress Lu at that time used the wisdom of a woman to kill her with a bamboo knife, it would be impossible to say who would have said the surname of the Han court after the death of Emperor Gao.

There is no record of what the truth of this unsolved case four hundred years ago is, but Liu Xie doesn't care about this. It is the scene of the battle between the monarch and the minister four hundred years ago, the important minister who was almost replaced, the change in the court, and the situation he is facing now, how similar it is, the difference may just be that he is not able to suppress the Han Gao Emperor who Han Xin did not rebel during his lifetime.

The words of frustration really touched Liu Xie's heart, which made this young man can't help but fall into a deep groan. (To be continued......)
