Lu's relatives

Chapter 551
Xuchang Palace City, although Cao Cao invited craftsmen to build it according to the appearance of the old capital of Luoyang, but after all, with the financial resources of Cao Cao's family alone, it is simply impossible to expand Xuchang City and restore Luoyang Palace City, which took hundreds of years to accumulate. Impossible.Just achieving seven or eight points of similarity is already the limit that Cao Jun's forces can bear while ensuring the minimum guarantee of a hundred thousand troops.Therefore, it is not difficult to find several palaces that are obviously used to support the scene.

The emperor's bedroom was still lit, and just now because of Cao Jun's entry into the palace, several long and huge butter candles made a "beep" sound from time to time, dimly illuminating the palace.

But in the shadow of the carved dragon screen, Liu Xie, who had a gloomy face, was staring at a place outside the door, his eyes flickering with a coldness that did not belong to his age.

"You are really dedicated to your duty! I am the Son of Heaven! Is it really so unpopular!" The place where Liu Xie was watching was supposed to be the place where the servants around him took a rest at night.Just now because of Cao Xiu and Cao Chun's soldiers messing around, Liu Xie returned to the bedroom to rest with the help of the servant who was also scared to the point of peeing his pants after setting them off, but who knew it was only half a child At the time of the hour, Liu Xie, who was so excited and unable to sleep because he was very sure that he would give Cao Cao a dumb loss, felt in a daze that someone was pushing him.Just when Liu Xie vaguely saw that it was the servant who was "raiding" Cao Jun, even though he was so frightened, he still stayed by his side, and was about to respond, but suddenly saw the servant straighten his back, There was still half of the cowardly look on his face, he sneered at the "sleeping" Liu Xie with the corners of his mouth curled up, then got up and walked to the door on tiptoe, waved at the night sky, and immediately there were two people who seemed to have been waiting Cao Jun soldiers who had been around for a long time came over, and saw that the servant casually pointed at Liu Xie who was sleeping on the couch, and seemed to say something in a low voice, and was lured by two respectful Cao Jun soldiers, and disappeared into the In the corner of the night.

This scene all fell into the eyes of Liu Xie, who still had a trace of sleepiness and his face turned livid.You don't even have to think about it.After Cao Xiu and Cao Chun waited for the Cao soldiers to retreat, because of ecstasy, I accidentally confided to the "loyal servant" that I had to wait a few moments, and it would be passed into Cao Cao's ears, which would definitely attract Cao Cao's attention. More and more afraid of myself.If the king does not keep secrets, he will lose his ministers, and if his ministers do not keep secrets, he will lose (body)!It's true.But fortunately, he was a loner who already seemed lonely because of his youth, which made Liu Xie deeply angry at betrayal, but at the same time, he also felt a little grateful from the bottom of his heart.

Unexpected ah unexpected.Cao Cao has so many tentacles.It was not that Liu Xie didn't know that there would be Cao Jun's spies in the palace, and even the guards of the palace city were under the control of Cao Jun. He had placed one or two insiders and kept track of the whereabouts and words of the emperor. , this is not surprising to Liu Xie.However, what made Liu Xie Chuli angry was that this servant was already by his side when he was still King Chenliu. For nearly ten years, Luoyang, Chang'an, and now Xuchang, accompanied by the ups and downs all the way, made Liu Xie In many cases, he really regards this servant who has never left him as a confidant, and he is willing to say a few words with this person occasionally if he is holding back some things in his heart.Just now, I shared my "satisfactory work" with him in a few words, but how could I expect that this person would accompany me through the pressure of Dong Zhuo and Li Guo, but he chose to take refuge in Cao Cao .

"Your Majesty! Nowadays, morality is in disarray, etiquette and music are hard to recover, and people's hearts are not the same. Compared with Cao thief, he certainly knows the principle of good birds choosing trees to live in. Why should Your Majesty care about such villains!" Just when Liu Xiewu was expressing angry emotions, but he was helpless after thinking about it, a cold voice came from outside the hall, which even shocked the emperor Liu Xie, unconsciously Suddenly, his little clothes were soaked through instantly.

"Who is here? Are you afraid of the great crime of deceiving the emperor for harassing my bedroom late at night?" Liu Xie only felt that the voice was familiar, but he couldn't remember who the voice was when he realized it. asked the drink.

"Your Majesty has mistaken the person who disturbed His Majesty's rest!" The person who stepped on the night outside the door with his sleeves rolled up without saying anything was the calm Ju Shou and the astonished Yuan Shang, who else.Just now, because of Cao Xiu and Cao Chun's order, even the soldiers of Cao Jun who "protected" outside Liu Xie's bedroom on weekdays also left with him, saving Ju Shou and Yuan Shang a lot of effort.It was only at this time that Yuan Shang finally figured out why he always felt that the path was familiar just now. Isn’t this just the palace where the emperor met the two of them that day in order to show intimacy and also to cover Cao Jun’s eyes and ears!Didn't Jushou say that he would take him out of Miyagi, and that he would help him not to worry about Cao Cao's assassination in the future? Why did he come to this place anyway?Is it possible to let the emperor send the two of them out?

"Is it Juqing and Yuan Qing? How did you two get here? You must know that the army under Cao Mengde is searching the palace for the two Qings!" Liu Xie finally saw the appearance of the people who came in. After going through today Cao Jun's "chaos" was already a matter of servants serving thieves, Liu Xie was a little more cautious before he was sure about Jushou's intention to come here, and then said: "But don't worry, the two Qing families are still safe now! Cao Mengde is probably talking to his two clan generals at this moment, thinking about how to get rid of the crime!"

"Oh? Your Majesty thinks that Cao Cao will apologize to His Majesty because his soldiers disturbed the late emperor's sleep and the family members of the palace?" Seemingly hearing the complacency in Liu Xie's words, Ju Shou's eyes flashed, and he turned towards the door Cursing the corners of his lips, he asked lightly: "What's more..."

"Ah... this..." It has to be said that Ju Shou's words made Liu Xie really not know how to answer for a while.yes!If Cao Cao really was the one who abided by the rules and knew that "heavenly power is unpredictable", how could he send heavy troops to disrupt the palace in the name of cleaning the palace in the middle of the night in preparation for the wedding?It seems that his "excellent plan" to lure Cao Cao into the game is also based on the helpless situation of Cao Cao, who holds military power, and he himself, the emperor of Han, the lord of the empire, resorted to low-handed methods on his subjects.How can the king of a country be forced to this point, with high-sounding reasons, as Liu Xie thought, so-called panic?Not to mention, as Jushou said, because of the servant's "rebellion", it is impossible to achieve his own goal by "slandering" Cao Cao.

Looking at the questions and answers of the two monarchs and ministers, Yuan Shang, who was standing aside, couldn't believe it.Son of Heaven, this is Son of Heaven!The real emperor of the Han Empire, although he won the country was wrong, he was still the king of a country after all.When I first saw this emperor who was one year younger than myself, I was envious for a moment.How could that kind of nobility and bearing that came from all over the world appear on a thin and pale young man? Could it be that the word "emperor" really has such a use?It's no wonder that such a smart person as my second uncle also failed in this matter.But at this moment, Yuan Shang suddenly felt that he did not have such "feelings" for Liu Xie.It's like discovering a sacred card that was supposed to be high above, but when it falls into the mortal world, it will be broken into pieces like ordinary wood.

"I have my own plans for this matter, and you don't need to say anything! I just don't know what to do when Ju and Qing come to visit so late at night!" Liu Xie's face flashed a touch of embarrassment that couldn't be concealed, but out of inner feelings Proud, facing these two allies who once stood with him on the front line of "dealing with" Cao Cao, Liu Xie still assumed the attitude of the emperor's lonely family, and his tone was much calmer, Wen Jushou said.

"Your Majesty, the two of you are here to bid farewell!" The disappointment in Jushou's eyes could not be concealed, there was a strong bitterness in the expression on his face, and the last trace of emotional smile gradually faded away. The mechanical version made a long bow to Liu Xie and replied.

"Farewell?! Now!? You, Juqing... You have to think clearly, don't act impulsively!" To be honest, to this famous Hebei scholar who once proposed to Yuan Shao the strategy of coercing the emperor and making the princes famous all over the world, Liu Xie was conflicted at the beginning, but after meeting Ju Shou and Yuan Shang, who were recommended by Dong Cheng, and especially cooperated to deceive the common enemy Cao Cao, Liu Xie was against this Yuan Shao force in his heart. The former conspirators had a deep sense of appreciation, otherwise they would not have hid the two of them in the palace when Cao Cao's class teacher, the palace ban and interrogation intensified, and there was no way out.At this moment, Liu Xie really realized that there was an excellent counselor by his side, especially a counselor who also didn't like Cao Cao very much. He made suggestions for himself and dealt with Cao Cao. It is infinitely better to be bought by Cao Cao.Therefore, Liu Xie really felt a little bit of reluctance for Jushou's sudden farewell at this juncture.But only a trace of it.In Liu Xie's mind, he is the Son of Heaven after all, and before, including now, he has shown enough goodwill and intention to solicit Ju Shou.If Jushou knew the current affairs, Liu Xie could take the overall situation into consideration and not care about this person who once wanted to "hold the emperor", but who would have expected that such a smart person as Jushou would suddenly become stupid, and treat Liu Xie The kindness in Xie's words actually chose to turn a blind eye.This made Liu Xie, who was angry at the servant's rebellion just now, also get angry.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the subject is very calm now!" Ju Shou was indeed very calm, and his tone was even colder, and said: "It's just that the two of us are going to leave the palace now. Some soldiers of the Cao army are far from enough. Neither of us is an enemy of a hundred people. If we leak our whereabouts, we are afraid that Cao army will find out and attack us immediately. Therefore, I ask your majesty to regard the former officials of the Yuan family as your Majesty. For the sake of life, give the ministers one thing for safety."

"Huh?! What does Juqing want me to give you? To avoid the pursuit of more than two thousand Cao Jun?" Seeing that Jushou has already made up his mind to go, it is useless to waste his words, but still ignorant of current affairs, Liu Xie's voice But also with a bit of impatience.

"..." Ju Shou didn't answer, but he finally let go of his hands that had been folded under the wide sleeves of his robe since he entered the hall.

It was a cold light...
