Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 68 Three Conditions
"Old Li..." Hearing that Li Ru suddenly said that this was a matter that was bigger than the sky, he hadn't reported it to Dong Zhuo yet. After Liu Xie was overjoyed, he immediately became abnormal.He rubbed his hands back and forth in the silky and smooth sleeve robe, salivating at Li Rudao with the expression of a weasel greeting an old hen:
"Someone once told me that there are two reasons why a subordinate wants to quit a job. One is that the money is not paid, and the other is that he feels wronged. A person like you is definitely not because of the first point... Come on, tell me carefully, how did Dong Zhuo make you feel uncomfortable with him?"

Li Ru saw that Liu Xie's attitude changed drastically for a while, and his face also changed accordingly.Although he had heard about today's son Meng Lang a long time ago, seeing Liu Xie humiliate him like this at this time, he felt a little unhappy in his heart, but caring about the differences between monarchs and ministers, he still suppressed his anger and said calmly: "Your Majesty , you are the honor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, like the crape myrtle star in the sky, shining brightly on the universe, and every word and deed is an example for the world..."

Seeing Li Ru's reaction, Liu Xie was a little stunned, realizing that a word he just said had deeply hurt Li Ru's little heart, which pretended to be strong but was actually extremely fragile.

The word 'job-hopping' was just a very common and common phrase in the previous life.But in ancient times, it could not be used indiscriminately, because this word has the meaning of profanity and evil, which is quite indecent.

Randomly looking through the novels or notes of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the term 'job-hopping' can come into view from time to time.Xu Ke's "Qing Barnyard Banknotes" gave a very definite explanation for "job-hopping": "Originally referring to prostitutes, it is said that the pipa should not be hugged. For example, if you use a horse to eat and drink, move it to the ear. The latter is Use words to flirt with a guest, saying that it is suitable for him to go here.” The meaning is very clear, the earliest word used to refer to prostitutes.After a prostitute and a client linger for a while, she finds a richer owner, so she abandons her old love and finds a new love, just like a horse changing from one trough to another trough to graze. Aptly called 'job hopping'.

In the Han Dynasty, although the word did not have such a meaning, Liu Xie insisted on moving the word over before it had passed through the time transformation and precipitation. Li Ru could not help but think that Liu Xie was insinuating that Li Ru was a horse in the trough. the meaning of.

Fortunately, Liu Xie also knew at this time that now is not the time to care about these details.The more I explained this to Li Ru, the more it seemed like superfluous. Instead, I simply chased and beat Li Ru regardless of the details, which could further defeat Li Ru's psychological defense.

Therefore, Liu Xie waved his hand, and said in a stern manner: "Old Li, don't talk to me about such nonsense, I can almost hear the cocoons in my ears. If governing the world can really be so rote, I will As long as you are a puppet, you can make civil officials not greedy for fame and military generals not love power, then I am willing. But you, an old viper, have the best vision, tell me, can this matter be so simple?"

"Civilian officials are not greedy for fame, and generals are not greedy for power..." Li Ru carefully chewed on Liu Xie's words, although these words were still vulgar, but when they were spoken in the court of the Han Dynasty, they hit the nail on the head.From this, Li Ru couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "If Your Majesty had sat in the Han Dynasty for two generations in the morning, the Han Dynasty would not have been reduced to such a field."

Liu Xie didn't care about Li Ru's emotion. After all, Li Ru now thought that the Han Dynasty had fallen to the bottom just like the stock market, but Liu Xie knew that there were still eighteen floors below the bottom.Therefore, although he is at the helm of this country, his mentality is more optimistic than Li Ru's.Not to mention, Li Ru gave himself a big surprise this time.

Yes, ever since Li Ru said that he hadn't told Dong Zhuo about the capture of Liu Xie's men, Liu Xie's brain began to work rapidly, and he keenly ruled out all impossible outcomes, leaving only the last An unreasonable result... He was extremely pleasantly surprised to find that the result of Li Ru's coming to see him could only be: Li Ru wants to change jobs!

In fact, if you think about it carefully, this result is not so unimaginable.He doesn't know whether the Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty did any tricks in history, but now he is doing it because of Xun You, the master planner of the Three Kingdoms. A set of the most invisible and effective strategies.Li Ru noticed that the 12-year-old emperor of the Han Dynasty had arranged such a big game of chess in the palace, how could he not be shocked?
Of course, for Li Ru, these are just inducements.What really prompted Li Ru to enter the Xuanshi Hall tonight was an internal problem within Dong Zhuo.Liu Xie didn't know what happened in Meiwu today, but he did know that in Dong Zhuo's later period, Dong Zhuo had indeed become more arrogant and domineering, and he had turned a deaf ear to Li Ru's advice.

What a vicious person Li Ru is, how could he not know that when Dong Zhuo came to this point, he was already on the edge of a cliff?Since Dong Zhuo didn't want to fight his back, could Li Ru just watch him being tied to Dong Zhuo's broken car and buried with him?
"Old Li, don't be so affectionate and indecisive. You are not Jia Baoyu, and you are not suitable for this class at all..." Seeing Li Ru's clear expression, Liu Xie became a little impatient.This kind of feeling is like he finally made an appointment with a netizen, ate a meal, and watched a movie, but they refused to agree to open a house together. He was so anxious: "You are a wolf from Kansai. Like Lu Bu, Guan Zhong will not become a housekeeper dog. Come on, tell me, have you learned any inside information?"

Seeing that Liu Xie has no morals and no lower limit, Li Ru finally lost his temper. He couldn't help laughing angrily, and replied to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, from your point of view, you seem to know that the Grand Master Is the deadline approaching?"

"It's almost two months," Liu Xie snapped his fingers, and then pretended to be indifferent and said to Li Ru, "I'm afraid Lu Bu's son-in-law just has such thoughts now, but if he really wants to do something , He doesn't have the guts yet. He has to wait for someone to push him from the back, and then things will come to fruition."

As Liu Xie expected, when he said the word "Lu Bu", Li Ru's face was still uncontrollably covered with a layer of consternation.Liu Xie was very satisfied with Li Ru's reaction. After all, the feeling of being regarded as an all-knowing expert is too wonderful and too difficult to describe to others.

"Your Majesty's insightful eyes are like torches, and his eyes are like a fire. I am truly convinced." Li Ru was silent for a while, then finally bent down and bowed deeply to Liu Xie, "If your majesty agrees to the three conditions of my minister, Ru is as good as your black ice platform, and I am willing to let you be driven by your majesty. "

Li Ru thought that what he said would make Liu Xie serious, but Liu Xie just waved his hand and said: "Forget it, there is no free pig meat in the world. I can't accept the conditions of you, an old poisonous snake." No matter how random you agree. What's more, the black ice platform you boasted is just a name. Compared with Qin Chao's black ice platform back then, it is far behind. Those guys can't even follow Chang'an Street Yes, it can only deal with my half-baked Jin Yiwei."

Li Ru was taken aback when he heard the words, and then after hearing Liu Xie's entire speech, he couldn't help smiling, took out a piece of plain silk from his close bosom, and handed it to Liu Xie, saying: "Your Majesty may have misunderstood, the one who followed His Majesty on Chang'an Street was only Dong Bai's mansion." They are just adopted disciples. The people above are the real Heibingtai people in the hands of Confucianism."

Liu Xie still didn't take it seriously, but after taking the plain silk and glanced at it, his face suddenly changed, and even his eyes seemed to be sucked into the plain silk that was several inches square. There are not many names, only seven or eight, but Liu Xie saw that these people were all placed in Lu Zhi, Huangfusong, Zhu Jun, Wang Yun, Shi Sunrui, Huang Wan, and Cai Yong. around the characters.Even, on the first row of Sujuan, there was a guard placed beside him: Shi A!
Liu Xie has an impression of this history.After all, this guy later taught Cao Pi swordsmanship, so Liu Xie naturally paid more attention.But things are not so simple, because this Shi A is not someone else, but the guy who seduced Gong'e and was pardoned by Liu Xie, and kept saying that he would be Liu Xie's dog!
Although Shi A's identity is just an inconspicuous old guard, after that incident, Liu Xie has already developed a lot of trust in Shi A in his heart, and is preparing to let him participate in some very important actions Zhonglai...

It is hard to imagine that there are people like Shi A lurking around the important officials in the court... When Liu Xie raised his head again, he felt that his back was more than half wet, but the lingering fear in his heart still could not dissipate.

"Your Majesty don't need to be overly alarmed. Among these people, only Shi A was more successful in infiltrating. After all, His Majesty has no one around, so he will let the minister have time to exploit. For example, other ministers and the Kanto princes have confidantes who have followed him for many years. The Black Ice Terrace was established not long ago, and it has not yet penetrated into the core." Li Ru didn't have much color at this time, and still said calmly.But it was this plainness that made Liu Xie feel that Li Ru was terrible.

Because, as Li Ru said just now, the Black Ice Terrace is not only ambushing in Guanzhong, but they also have secret lines in the Guandong princes!
Such an information network, although still in its infancy.But Liu Xie still couldn't stop thinking about it. Once this web weaving is successful, how important it will be to the Han Dynasty!
"Li Langzhong, what are your three conditions?" Liu Xie put down the plain silk in a slump. Only now did he know that Li Ru was not negotiating with him at all.He came here just to make a deal that was bound to succeed...
