Chapter 941: Nothing is not allowed
Cao's army fought for days, and all the heroes pointed at Xu Du.
During these days, Liu Xie's life was not easy.
Earlier, although he was under house arrest in the palace and strictly forbidden to go out, he still had the right to go to the garden to reward and receive foreign ministers.
But since the Cao army and the Qin army fought for Shouchun, Cao Cao has strengthened his control over him, not to mention receiving foreign ministers, and even going to the garden in the palace is to be checked by the guards.
The guards in the palace were all sent by Cao Cao, and these guards were not loyal to Liu Xie at all, they were only loyal to Cao Cao.
Sitting in the inner room of the dormitory with Empress Fu, there was a delicate wine jug on the low table in front of Liu Xie, and in his hand, he held a wine glass carved from white jade.
The shape of this glass is different from that of the ordinary nine statues, and the craftsman who carved the glass may have been afraid that the carving would be too complicated and ruin the fine materials, so he did not carve it into the shape of a wine bottle, but carved it like a shrunken bowl.
Wine glasses of this shape were not uncommon in later generations, but in the late Han Dynasty, they were quite chic.
The white jade carved wine glass is the best cold jade, and the wine syrup is poured into the glass, which is a little colder than usual.
After drinking all the cold wine in the cup in one gulp, Liu Xie, who was already a little drunk, looked at Queen Fu with a little blank eyes, and said with a little big tongue: "Queen, you said that I am very cowardly?" ”
"Your Majesty is drunk!" Sitting opposite Liu Xie, Queen Fu picked up the wine jug on the low table and said softly to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty is the Ninth Five-Year Honor, but don't drink too much and hurt your body." ”
"Ninety-Five!" Before Queen Fu's words fell, Liu Xie stood up, walked to the window, looked out the window and said to Queen Fu like crazy: "Has the queen ever seen such a ninety-five honor?" ”
Knowing that Liu Xie was already drunk and ruthless, Queen Fu didn't answer his words, just looked at his back silently, and didn't even say a word.
Queen Fu didn't speak, but Liu Xie didn't plan to keep his mouth shut.
Standing by the window, blowing the cool breeze pouring into the house from the window, Liu Xie, who was already drunk, only felt that his legs were a little fluttering.
With his eyes narrowed slightly, Liu Xie seemed to be talking to himself: "This world belongs to my Liu family, and now it has become Cao Cao's!" Every time I think about it, I always feel like a fish in my throat......"
Looking at Liu Xie, who was standing with his back to her, Queen Fu did not speak.
She has been a husband and wife with Liu Xie for several years, and how Liu Xie has come over in the past few years, she is also clear in her heart.
Since ascending the throne of the emperor, Liu Xie has never really been an emperor for a day, and what he has is nothing more than the false name of an emperor.
Liu Xie is not a stupid person, since the first day he became the emperor, he was a puppet, so many years have passed, how bitter he is in his heart, Empress Fu knows very well.
It's just that Queen Fu is different from Concubine Dong, Concubine Dong is always resolute when encountering problems, and it is precisely because of this that Dong Cheng and others will start to oppose Cao Cao without preparation.
Empress Fu also had the idea of killing Cao Cao in her heart, but she didn't think that Liu Xie was a person who could discuss big things.
Although Liu Xie is smart and clever, and once he gains power, he must also be an extremely ruthless character, which can be seen from the fact that he sent assassins to assassinate Liu Wei when he still had no power in his hands.
It's a pity that Liu Xie, although he is ruthless enough to others, he is very timid when he encounters trouble.
Empress Fu knew very well that she was secretly planning to kill Cao Cao, if Cao Cao knew, Liu Xie would definitely not be able to turn against Cao Cao for her sake.
A few days ago, Empress Fu had already written a letter to her father, Fu Wan, asking Fu Wan to send troops to recruit Cao Cao, but she didn't know how Fu Wan would care.
Empress Fu didn't tell Liu Xie about this matter, looking at the drunken and upset emperor, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
As a queen, she should be extremely honored, but with a puppet emperor like Liu Xie, even if she is a queen, where is the way out in the future?
Sighing softly, Queen Fu put the wine jug in her hand on the table, slowly stood up, walked behind Liu Xie, and whispered to him: "Your Majesty, you have drunk too much wine, it is better to rest for a while." Words spoken while drunk often lead to death! ”
Hearing the words "the disaster of killing", Liu Xie's body, who was drunk, was also shocked.
Queen Fu was right, if he was allowed to continue to talk while drunk, he would say something that even he didn't know.
"Your Majesty, Cao Gong is here!" As soon as he was woken up by Queen Fu's words, Liu Xie's mind had just cleared up, and a guard's voice came from outside the door.
Knowing that Cao Cao was coming, Liu Xie was suddenly frightened and a layer of white sweat appeared on his spine, and he turned his head to look at Queen Fu, with a frightened look on his face.
Seeing Liu Xie's face full of horror, Queen Fu sighed in her heart, and secretly glad that she didn't tell Liu Xie about writing a letter to Fu Wan.
Today's Liu Xie is already afraid of Cao Cao to the bone marrow.
Back then, Dong Zhuo was in chaos, although Liu Xie was just a puppet, he occasionally dared to make some decisions on small things, but now Liu Xie, don't say to make decisions, even when he should sleep and get up at which hour every day, is controlled by Cao Cao.
He has become a complete puppet.
Knowing that Cao Cao was coming, Liu Xie hurriedly turned around and faced the door with Queen Fu.
Cao Cao's arrival shocked Liu Xie into a cold sweat, and he was awake for seven or eight minutes, where did he dare to talk nonsense, but he just looked at the door with trepidation.
The door was gently pushed open from the outside, and one of the guards pushed it open before stepping back to the side.
After the guard walked away, Cao Cao and Guo Jia entered the house under the escort of the two guards.
Seeing that Liu Xie and Empress Fu were both standing in the room, and smelling a strong smell of wine, Cao Cao frowned slightly and glanced at the low table.
Seeing the wine jug and wine glass on the low table, Cao Cao's face instantly became a little ugly, and he said to Liu Xie in a cold voice: "Your Majesty is a dragon body, how can you not know self-love so much?" ”
was reprimanded by Cao Cao, Liu Xie bowed his head slightly, and didn't even dare to defend himself.
"Your Majesty heard that the army was approaching Xuzhou, and knew that Liu Bei would be captured by Cao Gong in the near future, and he was happy for a while, so he asked his concubine to fetch some fine wine for him!" Liu Xie didn't reply, but Queen Fu said to Cao Cao on the side: "Your Majesty is still talking to the concubine, Cao Gong's martial arts are world-famous, and he will definitely be able to support the Han family and exterminate all the ministers in the world!" ”
Queen Fu's words were very useful to Cao Cao.
Turning his head and glancing at Queen Fu, Cao Cao's face looked much better, his tone was a little softer, and he said to Liu Xie: "It's rare that Your Majesty has a heart, and please sit down and talk!" ”
As he spoke, Cao Cao had already sat down at the low table, and Guo Jia walked over to him and stood.
It wasn't until Cao Cao sat down that Liu Xie sat down tremblingly across from him.
Sitting opposite Cao Cao, Liu Xie's whole body was trembling slightly, and even his lips were trembling violently.
What he said just now, if he heard Cao Cao's ears, he didn't know what trouble would happen, but fortunately, Queen Fu was on the side to remind him, so he didn't talk nonsense when Cao Cao had already arrived at the door.
Thinking of this, Liu Xie's heart was full of fear, and the wine he drank earlier was also dispersed with the flow of sweat.
"Your Majesty, the King of Qin and his ministers fought Shouchun, I don't know what your Majesty's opinion is?" Staring at Liu Xie without blinking, Cao Cao did not directly say his intention to come here, but seemed to ask Liu Xie a little casually.
Liu Wei and Cao Cao competed for Shouchun, and Liu Xie's views on this matter were really entangled.
On the one hand, he hoped that Liu Wei could win, after all, Liu Wei and him were in the same lineage, and if Liu Wei won, the Han royal family would win.
But on the other hand, Liu Xie hoped that Cao Cao could defeat Liu Wei.
There are many heroes in the world, but those who are really qualified to seize the throne of the emperor, except for Liu Wei, there is no second person to think of!
Yuan Shu got the jade seal of the country, but he was the emperor for some time, but his emperor only occupied a place in Huainan, and the heroes of the world did not look at him at all.
When Liu Wei deliberately transferred the army and asked Cao Cao to bring him to Xudu, Liu Xie already knew that his half-brother probably didn't want to be the emperor, and he refused to be the emperor for a long time, but the time had not yet come.
If Liu Wei won the world, Liu Xie would never dare to hope that he, the emperor, would continue to be the emperor, after all, the world was defeated by Liu Wei, and Liu Wei was also absolutely qualified to replace him as a puppet emperor.
was asked by Cao Cao, Liu Xie lowered his head and was speechless for a long time.
Seeing that Liu Xie was silent for a long time, when Cao Cao stared at him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his face instantly became ugly again.
Sensing that Cao Cao's face was different, Liu Xie was full of excitement, and hurriedly said: "What does Cao Gong think, I think I will ......."
He didn't speak, although Cao Cao didn't like it in his heart, he wasn't angry, but as soon as Liu Xie's words came out, Cao Cao suddenly said angrily: "Your Majesty said this, isn't it a metaphor for the subordinates to commit crimes?" ”
Knowing that he had said the wrong thing, Liu Xie hurriedly said to Cao Cao: "Don't misunderstand Cao Gong, I just want to say that Cao Gong is the hero I rely on, and if the King of Qin and Cao Gong are enemies, they are enemies of me." Cao Gong thought that how to deal with the King of Qin, how to deal with it, what Cao Gong did, is what I meant......"
After Liu Xie said such an explanation, Cao Cao's face softened, and he waved his hand at Liu Xie and said: "That's it, Your Majesty doesn't need to be careful, the minister only asks His Majesty like this, but there are some things I want to ask Your Majesty to promise!" ”
Cao Cao's frightened forehead was covered with cold sweat, seeing that Cao Cao's face eased down, Liu Xie sighed in his heart, raised his arm to wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead and said: "Cao Gong has something to do, just say it!" I don't want to do it! ”
