At noon the next day, Chen stayed in the palace.

"How many times have I been here?"

Liu Wei braved the snow, walked in the yard, and said with a smile with Liu Xie on the side.

Regarding Liu Wei's sudden arrival, Liu Xie was unusually nervous, his face did not move, and he said with a smile: "It should be the third time, the first time is when the courtier's brother gave birth to a child, and the second time is when the grandmother is sick, this is the third time." ”

Liu Wei nodded, glanced at him, and said, "Am I not qualified to be a brother?" ”

Liu Xie hurriedly said: "Your Majesty has every opportunity, and he can still think of his brother, it is already a blessing for his brother, how can he not be qualified." ”

Liu Wei didn't really care about this, and said: "I remember that little guy in your family, it's okay to let the princess take the child into the palace, the queen mother likes children, and they are also brothers, so don't have to give birth." ”

There are actually a lot of children in the palace, in addition to Liu Wei's three, there are He Xian's son He Yan, Cao Cao's son Cao Pi, Xun Yu's son Xun Yun and so on.

"Yes." Liu Xie was quietly vigilant and responded quietly.

Until now, Liu Xie did not know the purpose of Liu Wei's sudden visit.

After getting along for so many years, Liu Xie has faded away from immaturity and has enough understanding of His Majesty the imperial brother.

His elder brother has never been profitable, and when he suddenly does something, he must have some purpose, and he will never waste time for no reason.

Liu Wei guessed a little bit about Liu Xie's thoughts, looked left and right, and said, "You are pure here." ”

Halfway through, Liu Wei only saw a dozen servants, and the huge courtyard looked very deserted.

Liu Xie said: "Grandmother likes to be pure, and her courtiers don't need so many people, so there are only thirty servants in total." ”

These Liu Wei naturally knew that Liu Xie had been careful everywhere since he was 'sensible', for fear of finding an excuse for Liu Wei to kill him.

Thinking about this younger brother's difficulty, Liu Wei also sighed at his tolerance, if he were some people in history, he would have been killed cleanly.

Liu Wei went all the way to the north, passed through the wall and through the house, chatting with Liu Xie without a match.

The yard was very large, and after walking for a long time, Liu Xie was already scared, but now he is gradually panicking.

Because of going around and around, Liu Wei walked in the direction of the courtyard of their grandmother, the Empress Dowager Dong!

Since the Empress Dowager Dong moved into the Chenliu Palace, she has been living in a simple house, let alone seeing anyone, except for the occasional serious illness over the years, almost no one knows that she is still alive.

"Brother Chen, I heard that Your Majesty has recently recruited two new young envoys?" Liu Xie tried to change the topic and calm the panic in his heart.

Liu argued, and then said with a smile: "Yes." Sun Ce collected them for me, and when I saw that they were beautiful, I accepted them. ”

Liu Xie bowed, but his eyes were fixed on Liu Wei's side face.

Where would he believe Liu Wei's words, he didn't accept the harem for so many years, but accepted the two daughters sent by Sun Ce, there must be some relationship they don't understand!

Liu Xie was thinking about answering, but Liu Wei had already said: "It's Qiao's daughter, although she is a small family, she is also well-read and reasonable, and she is a famous beauty." ”

Liu Xie couldn't guess the trick, and said with a smile: "Since Your Majesty values it, it must be as beautiful as a fairy." ”

Liu Wei smiled and waved his hand, his face was full of modesty, he slowly stopped, and he had already come to a courtyard.

Compared with other places in Chenliu Palace, this courtyard is not exquisite, but it is clean and tidy everywhere, and it is obviously taken care of from time to time.

The maidservants and servants at the door had already come to salute, and their movements and expressions were trembling.

The competition between King Chen Liuwang and His Majesty in front of him was so that they could not be alarmed.

Liu Wei glanced at Liu Xie and strode in.

Liu Xie secretly breathed a sigh of relief, followed closely, and was just about to step into the door, when he saw Fu Shi not far away holding the child, and hurried over with a frightened face.

Liu Xie's eyes widened, and he immediately stopped her with his eyes.

Fu pursed his lips, hesitated, and did not come again.

Liu Xie took a deep breath, acted as if nothing happened, and quickly followed Liu Wei.

The tall Dian Wei saw everything, but he also turned a blind eye.

Liu Wei walked into the courtyard of the Empress Dowager Dong and went straight to the incense hall.

When he came to the door, he smelled a strong aroma, what kind of smell was this, Liu Wei couldn't tell clearly, and after walking a few steps, he saw Empress Dowager Dong with her back to him, kneeling in front of a golden statue, worshipping reverently.

Liu Wei has always known that Empress Dowager Dong believes in ghosts and gods, and it is not strange to see her like this.

The Han Dynasty is up and down, I don't know how many people believe in this and that, it is chaotic and complicated, and it is impossible to count.

"Liu Wei has seen my grandmother."

Liu Wei walked in with a big grin, raised his hand and said loudly.

Empress Dowager Dong's body paused obviously, and then ignored it, quietly facing the golden statue, as if praying for something.

Liu Xie saw it on the side, opened his mouth to speak, but didn't say it.

Liu Wei didn't care about the grandmother's prejudice against him, took off his shoes and cotton clothes, sat down at the small table, and poured tea by himself.

Liu Xie didn't dare to sit down, and carefully accompanied him.

Liu Wei drank tea, very patient, and waited slowly.

I don't know how long it took, Empress Dowager Dong finally turned around, with long eyebrows and fine eyes, looking at Liu Wei with contempt and indifference, and said in an indifferent tone: "I thought that you would wait until the day I died before you came to see me." ”

Liu Wei raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, this cheap grandmother is a little angry.

"Grandmother is talking about something,"

Liu Wei smiled and said, "As long as my grandmother is willing, I will take my grandmother into the palace, and I can see her every day." ”

Empress Dowager Dong suddenly snorted coldly and said, "You think I'm dying slowly." ”

The corners of Liu Xie's mouth moved, and the two of them sneered as soon as they met, which made him even more uneasy.

Liu Wei held the teacup in both hands and said, "Grandmother, this is a misunderstanding of my filial piety, today or tomorrow?" ”

Empress Dowager Dong's expression became more and more indifferent, and she got up and sat opposite Liu Wei.

"Tell me, His Majesty personally came to me, an old woman who is going to die, for what?" Empress Dowager Dong's tone became more and more unkind.

Regarding Liu Wei's 'threat', Empress Dowager Dong didn't take it to heart at all.

In the eyes of the Empress Dowager Dong, only Liu Xie, who was raised by her, and Liu Wei, who was born to the Empress Dowager He, is a wicked obstacle - the same vicious!

Liu Wei looked at Empress Dowager Dong's expression, thought about it again and again, and suddenly realized the key.

Dong Zhuo has always pretended to be the Empress Dowager Dong's own family, and has a lot to do with the Dong family. After Dong Zhuo's death, the imperial court settled accounts after the autumn and punished many people of the Dong family.

This Empress Dowager Dong is probably angry because of this.

Nothing to blame......

Liu Wei shook his head in his heart, he really didn't deliberately target, and he simply didn't detour, and said, "I heard that my grandmother also entered the Five Buckets Rice Sect?" ”

Mrs. Dong didn't change her color behind her, squinted her eyes coldly, and said, "So what?" ”

She didn't notice that Liu Xie on the side was already pale, and his lips were trembling.

Liu Xie is in charge of the Imperial Historical Observatory, which is one of the three major power institutions of the imperial court today, how could he not know that Shang Shutai is plotting to eradicate the Five Doumi Sect!

Liu Wei sat up straight with a smile and said, "First, grandmother never knew about the Five Bucket Rice Sect. Second, I know that some people have also joined the Five Doumi Sect in order to cling to their grandmother, and I want the list. Third ......"

Liu Wei said, turned his head, looked directly at Liu Xie, and said, "If the imperial brother can't take care of his grandmother, send him to the palace." ”

"Your Majesty!"

Liu Xie knelt on the ground with a puff, his head was covered with cold sweat, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, grandmother, grandmother......"

Liu Xie, who has always been intensive, couldn't find anything to say, and he was extremely flustered.

When Empress Dowager Dong heard this, she looked at Liu Xie again, and instantly realized the seriousness of the matter. Immediately sat up straight, and said urgently: "I joined the Five Doumi Sect to pray and eliminate evil, and it has nothing to do with others, those people, those people, have no other intentions...... The list, the list I wrote to you, don't get me wrong, Xie'er doesn't know ...... at all"

Liu Xie's head slammed on the ground, and his whole body was cold.

It's okay not to explain, this explanation is simply solid!

"Write it." Liu Wei took a sip of tea again.

Empress Dowager Dong was even more frightened than Liu Xie, and said repeatedly: "I write, I write!" Bring pen and paper! ”

The servant held the four treasures of the study, placed them with trembling hands, and quickly retreated.

Empress Dowager Dong finished writing carefully, and then argued with Liu with chapped lips, and said in a trembling voice: "You believe me, I don't know those things, Xie'er doesn't know, you, don't misunderstand......"

Liu Wei took it, looked at the list carefully, and suddenly looked up at the Empress Dowager Dong, and said, "I still have a question." ”

"You say." Empress Dowager Dong said in a panic. She is actually not afraid of death, she is almost seventy years old, but she can't watch Liu Xie being killed by Liu Wei under an excuse.

Liu Wei put down the list, looked weird, and said, "Where did grandmother get the money?" This year, my grandmother donated tens of millions to the Wudou Rice Sect, plus the money given to the Dong family over the years, not to mention hundreds of thousands, how could my grandmother have more money than my treasury? ”

Empress Dowager Dong was stunned, her expression was a little stiff, but when she saw that Liu Xie was still trembling and kneeling on the ground, she had no choice but to say: "Emperor Xian, I have received a lot of filial piety, most of this money is in the imperial garden outside the palace, and several major chaos after you succeeded to the throne have not been affected." ”

"Oh~"

Liu Wei's eyes widened and he nodded abruptly.

Empress Dowager Dong is the same as his cheap daddy Emperor Ling, or Emperor Ling was taught by Empress Dowager Dong - extremely greedy for money.

In order to be greedy for money, Emperor Ling did everything he could, not counting selling official beards, and even going straight to the end, forcibly asking government and opposition officials to bribe him, which was simply ridiculous to the extreme.

And this Empress Dowager Dong is not bad, some are money-making means.

Compared with Emperor Ling's cultivation of gardens everywhere, the indulgence of wine and wealth, spending money like running water, but the Empress Dowager Dong did not pull out a dime, and over the years, she accumulated a lot of money.

And she put the money in the imperial garden outside Luoyang City, which was not affected by the Luoyang chaos, unlike the palace that was robbed, but it was saved spared.

Then, Liu Wei's eyes were half-narrowed, and his essence was beating.

He thought of another thing, another person - Cao Cao!

Back then, Cao Cao was also the captain of the West Garden, and when Yuan Shao led his troops into the deep palace, Cao Cao disappeared.

Cao Cao was inconspicuous in this chaos, and no one knew what he did, and he only came up after the fact.

If he took the opportunity to rob a large amount of money and food and hid it silently, can it explain the source of the mysterious money and food he has raised in the past few years?

Liu Wei's face was suddenly full of emotion, and he said in a long voice: "Sure enough, in the last days of the dynasty, people's hearts are scattered......"

Empress Dowager Dong couldn't understand why Liu Wei suddenly sighed, stared at Liu Wei and said: "I have already written to you, you have to promise me that this matter cannot involve Xie'er." ”

Liu Wei came back to his senses, saw that Liu Xie was still kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile: "Okay, get up, I know you are not involved." ”

Liu Xie quietly wiped the cold sweat on his head and said, "Your Majesty Mingjian." ”

Trembling to his feet, his face pale and unreceding.

Liu Wei stared at him for a moment and said, "How about the case of the Wudou Mi Sect be handed over to you to investigate?" ”

"Weichen Command!" Liu Xie raised his hand almost without thinking.

Liu Wei snorted, took another sip of tea, got up and patted his buttocks, and said, "Let's go." ”

Empress Dowager Dong looked at Liu Wei's back, and stopped talking.

This grandson, she never believed, but she couldn't help it.

Liu Xie wanted to ask the Empress Dowager Dong about something, but when he saw that Liu Wei was leaving, he hurriedly sent him off in person.

Liu argued out of Chen Liu's palace, gave the list written by Empress Dowager Dong to Zuo Li, and then got into the carriage.

In the carriage, the warm jade is soft and fragrant, not only charcoal, but also two beauties - Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao.

The two women hurriedly took off Liu Wei's cotton clothes and handed him a warm water bag.

Liu Wei sat between the two of them and exhaled a full stomach of cold air comfortably.

"Your Majesty, is it going well?" Xiao Qiao pressed Liu Wei's shoulder and asked softly.

Da Qiao opened the kettle in his hand and handed it to Liu Wei.

Liu Wei glanced at them left and right, and said with a smile: "Smooth." ”

"That's good." Xiao Qiao said a little playfully.

Xiao Qiao speaks playfully, but her appearance is mature and elegant, not like her age, but her sister, with a baby face, looks delicate and innocent.

It's quite a contrast.

The two didn't say much, just quietly accompanied Liu Wei.

Liu Wei left easily, but Chen Liu's palace was not quiet.

Liu Xie and his wife talked to the Empress Dowager Dong for a long time, and they actually hugged their heads and cried.

On the other side, Zuo Li, who got the list from Liu Wei, has returned to the Huangmen North Temple Prison.

A group of cool officials from the Huangmen North Temple Prison studied the list, and one of the military marquis said: "Nobleman, there are some discrepancies in this list, some of which we don't know, and some of which are not on the list. ”

Zuo Li sat in the middle, with a cold smile on his snow-white face, and said, "It doesn't matter if you're there or not, you can catch them all." ”

The military marquis was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Nobleman, won't something happen if you catch so many people this time?" ”

Zuo Li glanced at him, then turned to the others, and they all had a worried face, and couldn't help sneering, "Don't you understand?" Is Shang Shutai cleaning up the Five Bucket Rice Sect? Just one Zhang Lu, can he use such a big battle? Even His Majesty personally left the palace? ”

The military marquis who spoke suddenly understood, and instantly dared not come out.

"Got it?" Zuo Li had a smile on his face, but his tone was neither salty nor light.

"Got it!" The cool officials nodded heavily, their eyes on Zuo Li.

Zuo Li sneered and said, "Then what are you waiting for?" Scatter all of you. What we want to catch now, in the past, we couldn't catch it, this time, it's a pot of stew! ”

"The last general commands!" Everyone raised their hands in unison, and their voices answered in low voices.
