Liu He's burning of this secret decree was not a momentary hot-headedness, but a full consideration.

Just because, he is not the honest boy Liu He in history, but the traverser Liu He!

Liu He remembered that when Liu He, who had the emperor's order, went to Nanyang, he was detained by Yuan Shu, who had a ghost in his heart, and then Yuan Shu sent another envoy to Youzhou to find Liu Yu, fooling Liu Yu and saying that he would send troops west to Chang'an to welcome the emperor back to Luoyang.

Although Liu Yu was far away in Youzhou, he was devoted to the Han family, and he really believed Yuan Shu's nonsense, and then sent thousands of elite cavalry south, ready to assemble at Yuan Shu, but was annexed by his ambitious subordinate Gongsun Zhan.

Gongsun Zhan was originally controlled by Liu Yu, and in order to annex Liu Yu's cavalry force, he secretly reached a conspiracy with Yuan Shu, signaling Yuan Shu to keep Liu He in custody, so that he could extort some benefits from Liu Yu from time to time. In exchange, Gongsun Chan promised Yuan Shu to help Yuan Shu deal with Yuan Shao, who had already developed and grown in Hebei.

Although Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are brothers, their hatred between them is even worse than that of outsiders.

Later, Liu Yu learned that Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shu teamed up to deceive his father and son, and naturally hated Gongsun Chan, so he raised 100,000 troops to fight against Gongsun Zhan, but was defeated by the strengthened Gongsun Zhan.

By the time the honest boy Liu He fled back to Youzhou from Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao after several years, his father Liu Yu had already been killed by Gongsun Zhan, and the territory of Youzhou was also divided between Gongsun Zhan and Yuan Shao.

At that time, the reason why Yuan Shu was able to fool Liu Yu successfully was because he took out the secret decree sent by the emperor to Liu Yu!

Now, Liu He has burned this secret decree that led to Liu Yu's defeat, not only can he avoid danger when passing through Wuguan, but even if he is discovered and detained by Yuan Shu's people after entering Nanyang, he doesn't have to worry about Yuan Shu taking this terrible thing to harm his "cheap father" who has never met.

Although Liu He, a traverser, had never met Liu Yu, he knew that his father was a kind-hearted elder and a good official who really cared about the people of Li in this era, and he didn't want to see Liu Yu finally die because of an already absurd secret edict.

Besides, Liu He returned to the troubled times of the late Han Dynasty without explanation, and his only reliance now is Liu Yu, if something happens to Liu Yu, he will not have a good time in the future.

This is an era when emperors and ministers are to be played by monkeys, if there is no territory and army in their hands, then they can only be slaughtered and dominated!

In troubled times, life is as cheap as a dog, and Liu He no longer wants to live as hard and helpless as in his previous life! Even if it is in order to live a good life in the future, he has to plan for Liu Yu well to avoid a sad ending in the near future.

As for whether Liu He will be beaten for burning the emperor's secret decree when he sees Liu Yu in the future, it is not something he should worry about now. The problem Liu He is facing now is how to successfully pass through the territory entrenched by the warlord leaders such as Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Han Fu, and Gongsun Zhan, and finally return to the nest of Youzhou occupied by his father!

After burning the secret decree, Liu He put down the big stone that was pressing on his heart, and suddenly felt a wave of fatigue and fatigue attack, so he fell asleep.

After a while, "purring...... The sound of snoring came from inside Liu He's house.

Tian Chou and Xian Yuyin in the next room were not as tired as Liu He, and after hearing Liu He's snoring from the house, they talked quietly.

Tian Chou said with some doubts: "Since the day before yesterday, Gongzi recovered from his illness, it seems that he has changed his person, his behavior has become a little different, and his words are a little incomprehensible.

Xian Yuyin nodded and said: "I also think that Gongzi and the changes we saw when we first entered Chang'an, sometimes like a countryman who has never seen anything, sometimes his eyes are bright and assertive, and he seems to be very decisive." Could it be that the wind chill burned out of the place? ””

Xian Yuyin poked his temple with his index finger, meaning that Liu He's brain was not wrong.

Tian Chou smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I don't dare to believe if Childe's mind has been affected by illness, but I vaguely feel that Childe's changes in recent days are a good thing!" You also know that the situation of the lord in Youzhou is becoming more and more dangerous, he is such a son, if the lord has an accident in the future, we will support the prince to guard Youzhou. ”

"Yes, when I first arrived in Chang'an, I felt that he was a little cowardly and a little pedantic after seeing him. But this time, after the son went out of Chang'an and fell seriously ill in the Daozhong, he seemed to have become resolute and brave, and when he mentioned Dong Zhuo, he would be called a 'fat man' or an 'old thief', and he didn't have the same fear as he did at the beginning. ”

"When Gongzi mentioned Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao, these powerful princes, he didn't seem to care very much, I hope he is not blindly arrogant. Brother Minghui, this time we will protect Gongzi to return to Youzhou, even if he sacrifices his life, we must let him see Master Taifu safely! ”

"Zitai rest assured, Lord Taifu treats us like a mountain, I am not greedy for life and afraid of death, as long as I still have a breath, I will never let anyone hurt my son!"

It turned out that just last year, Liu Yu, who was guarding Youzhou, heard that Dong Zhuo coerced the new emperor to move to Chang'an, so he recruited talents to envoy Chang'an in Youzhou.

After that, Tian Chou and Xian Yuyin risked their lives to cross the area controlled by the Huns and Xianbei people in Mobei, and traveled south from Shuofang to Chang'an, and finally completed the difficult mission of envoying Chang'an for Liu Yu.

From this point of view, this Tian Chou and Xian Yuyin not only understand the righteousness, but also have courage and strategy, and are definitely loyal and reliable subordinates.

After the two whispered a conversation in the house, they lay down in their clothes and fell asleep lightly.

At the time of the third watch, Xian Yuyin, who had sharp ears, suddenly heard the sound of a dog barking at the head of the village, followed by the sound of stumbling footsteps approaching the courtyard where they were staying, so he hurriedly pushed Tian Chou on his side.

"Zitai is about to wake up, someone is coming from the village!"

Hearing Xian Yuyin's low voice, Tian Chou, who was already sleeping very lightly, immediately woke up, and quickly said: "I'll go to the son's room to wake him up, and you immediately go out of the house to find out the situation!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Tian Chou turned over and got out of bed, took out a short dagger from his arms, and quietly touched towards the door.

Tian Chou's movements are swift, and Xian Yuyin's movements are faster than him. Before Tian Chou could get off the ground, he had already pulled out the Pu knife he was carrying from under his pillow, and then flew out of the courtyard from the window that was specially opened at night.

Tian Chou and Xian Yuyin were able to walk more than 5,000 miles from the territory of the Huns and Xianbei people who were like wolves and tigers to come to Chang'an, and their vigilance and skills were naturally not bad.

After a while, Tian Chou touched Liu He's room, gently leaned over Liu He's ear, and then said, "Childe, wake up!" Someone surrounded our compound! ”

Liu He, who was sleeping in a daze, vaguely felt some itching in his ears, and a warm breath hit his face, so he woke up with an agitated spirit.

"Zitai, what's wrong?"

"A group of strongmen came to the village, probably for us!"

"I'm rubbing! It's really that my sister doesn't let Lao Tzu stop! Liu He couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.

"What about the silver?"

"I went to the outside of the hospital to investigate."

In the darkness, Liu He took a deep breath, and then said, "You immediately go to support Xian Yuyin, and I will go and wake up this old man, and then take him to withdraw through the back door." If this group is really coming for us, you will set fire to the house and wait for the opportunity to get out. Let's split up and hide in the mountains first, and wait until tomorrow after dawn to meet in front of Wuguan! ”

"Good! Childe, be careful! ”

Tian Chou is also a scheming person, after listening to Liu He's arrangement when he was in danger, he felt that it was feasible, so he didn't say more, and immediately went to the gate of the courtyard in the dark.

Liu He Zhilu said that he was only a weak scholar, and if he pretended to be cool and stayed here, he would only become a burden to Yin and Tianchou, so he let the two stay behind without pretension to buy time for his escape.

What is rare is that even in such a critical time, Liu He did not forget to take this old man to escape with him.

"Old man, there is a group of strongmen who entered the village late at night, I am afraid that they are coming for me, and please leave the village with me and enter the mountains to avoid danger!"

When the old man heard Liu He's words, he trembled, and hurriedly said: "There is a small gate behind my yard, if the adults leave from here, they can go directly to the back mountain to avoid danger." ”

This old man thought about it clearly, Zhilu Dao was now at a crisis juncture, and saving his life was more important than anything else, so he quickly said the way out for them to avoid the bandits and bandits.

"Good! Without further ado, let's go! ”

After a while, Liu He followed the old man and quietly got out of a small gate at the back of the courtyard, and then led the old man to a mountain forest a few miles away.

After leaving the village, Liu He walked briskly, and when he looked back, he saw that the fire in the village was shining, and it seemed that the courtyard of Feng Laohan's house was on fire.

Feng Laohan, who was leading the way in front, suddenly turned around and saw that the place where the fire was in his own courtyard, he suddenly stopped, sat on the ground, and then cried loudly: "God, that's my family's ancestral house!" ”

Liu He was afraid that the old man's cry would attract a strong man, so he covered his mouth, and then shouted in a low voice: "Daddy, don't cry, this matter started because of me, when I get out of danger, I will definitely rebuild the house for you in the future!" This is not the time to cry sadly, please ask the old man to hurry into the mountain! ”

The old man was comforted by Liu He, and his mood calmed down, so he got up and continued to lead the way in front, and finally led Liu He into a jungle overgrown with weeds and thorns and bushes.
