Three Kingdoms, at the beginning of the game, recognize the thief as the father, hit the spectacle,

Do you want to... simply put everyone present under house arrest?

Or just kill it?

……

There was inevitably a trace of gloom on his face.

……

He had imagined countless situations in which the crisis in Luoyang would break out, whether it was according to the original world line, his friend Cao Cao summoned the world's princes to rebel against Dong, or he got the news first and made preparations in advance...

He actually imagined it many times.

It's just that no matter how thoughtful he was, he never expected that he would get such news on such an occasion.

Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty... Oh no, it should be said that Liu Xie, king of Chenliu, was in trouble and needed to send troops to rescue him... Doesn't this make it clear that something happened in Luoyang?

If nothing happened to Luoyang, how could Liu Xie, a prince, be in danger and need to send troops to rescue him?

……

and……

Moreover, the news reached me under the watchful eyes of the seven eunuchs and governors...

Liu Xie asked for help from the princes sitting on one side...

Who is not envious of this?

Zhang Yan's expression became more and more ugly.

……

To put it bluntly, in a good hand, I should be able to gain a considerable advantage by relying on poor intelligence...

But now?

No matter whether he advances or retreats, no matter how he reacts, it will fall into the eyes of everyone present.

If it wasn't for the fact that the identities of these people were too important, Zhang Yan even had a thought of wanting to silence them.

……

"Why don't we just kill them all?"

……

If he ordered [-] soldiers to fight together, then the news that Emperor Xiandi of the Han Dynasty was in danger would definitely be pressed to death in Lujiang, and there would be no word of mouth.

But as a price... I am almost as rebellious as Ming Pai.

It's not worth it.

Seeing Tao Qian, Kong Rong and others looking at him with sweat on their faces, Zhang Yan shook his head lightly after hesitating for a moment.

This also reassured the other party a lot.

It's just... Although it's not possible to go that far with silence or something, but seeing how everyone is doing now, I'm afraid I'm the first to get relevant news.

King Chen Liu is in danger... what kind of danger is he in?Where are you in distress?How to rescue?

These messages are extremely important, whether for yourself or for others.

If it is handled well, I am afraid that it will bring an incomparably huge advantage to myself and Lujiang in the future.

It's not impossible to take advantage of the dragon, or even coerce him like his good brother Cao Cao... It's not impossible.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yan simply waved his hand.

The [-] army blocked the entire scene in an instant, and the people involved went to the Public Security Bureau to report one by one.

And myself, along with several other eunuchs, took the little girl Fushou back to the Mansion of the Marquis of the Kingdom of Wan.

Only here can we say that it is truly safe.

Chapter 7 The Big Matter

"Okay, Madam Fu, don't be nervous... When you get to Lujiang, no one will be able to hurt you anymore."

"You drink your saliva first, and then tell the whole story, so that we can know what happened."

……

That afternoon, in the Lujiang prefect's mansion, a group of local dignitaries worth two thousand shi were sitting around a prescription hall, each holding a teapot, drinking tea silently.

It can be seen that everyone is full of doubts about Fushou's arrival, but due to the other party's identity and his own identity...

They still sat there obediently, and cast their questioning eyes on Zhang Yan who was in the middle.

Although their hearts were full of curiosity, this place was Lujiang, not their territory... Then Fushou came to Zhang Yan by name again.

These words are reasonable, and it is not their turn to intervene in this matter.

As for Zhang Yan, as soon as he met Fushou, he ordered the scene to be sealed off, and at the same time brought the little girl back to his mansion.

……

Up to now, all the attendants around him have been dismissed by him, leaving only a few high-ranking prefects, governors and other envoys of the emperor.

And that little girl Fushou looked anxiously at everyone present.

She doesn't care if the news gets out or not.

After seeing that Zhang Yan finally stopped his tense face and asked her aloud, Fu Shou immediately spoke hastily.

……

"Uncle...you don't know. At the end of last month, His Majesty the Son of Heaven passed away in Luoyang Nangong, and my husband and I fled out of the city immediately after getting the news..."

……

"What, the emperor is dead!?"

Following the voice of the other party, whether it was Zhang Yan or the other people present, their faces turned pale in an instant, and then their expressions became extremely serious.

……

……

……

Let's go back to a few months ago, before the death of Hanling Emperor Liu Hong, Liu Xie, the prince, and his elder brother Liu Bian had actually expected this day to come.

At that time, the intensified battle for the heir apparent in Luoyang City had spread from inside the palace to outside the palace...

As the only two sons of Liu Hong, they who are in the center of the storm are naturally very aware of the various conflicts between He Jin, the great general of the dynasty, and Zhang Rang, the Zhongchang servant, surrounding which of them will be enthroned. .

Although in terms of their age, neither Zhang Rang nor He Jin would tell them too much in detail... But Liu Xie also knows that General He Jin doesn't like him very much...

He Jin's younger sister is Empress He Shi, and He Shi has always wanted to let his brother Liu Bian succeed him, so that the mother is more expensive than the son.

In this way, Liu Xie is almost a stumbling block on their road to development.

If Liu Hong was alive, it would be better to say that as a father, no matter what Liu Hong's final decision is, it will not hurt the two brothers.

But once the father who protected him died, he would immediately fall into a very serious crisis.

As Zhang Rang told him, either he would be caught by He Jin's henchmen, and then he would be put under house arrest or even killed directly - this is actually a very common thing in the process of seizing the heir apparent.

And if he is lucky enough to avoid He Jin's henchmen, if he is caught by others, he will become a tool for political struggle and exchange of interests...

To put it bluntly, it means being sold to He Jin in exchange for benefits, or being directly supported to become a puppet emperor.

Liu Xie, who had predicted his own fate early, naturally acted as soon as he learned of Liu Hong's death.

……

"His Royal Highness, please remember that the world today seems to be peaceful and peaceful in all directions, but in fact, crises are surfacing. If you are not careful, you will fall into violent turmoil."

"Now that the world is still alive, those ghosts and ghosts will somewhat restrain themselves, and they will not act as unscrupulously as they do... But once... once that kind of thing happens, these people will lose their restraint and become People are not people, ghosts are not ghosts!"

"Even the person you trust the most may stab you for immediate benefit."

……

"After all, Your Highness, you have too many things involved..."

……

Liu Xie still remembered that when he was in the palace, Zhongchang Shi Zhang Rang told him so.

At that time, Liu Xie actually didn't quite understand the meaning of the other party's words... After all, he was only seven or eight years old.

But he remembered a sentence:

That is, his father once said that Zhang Rang is a great loyal minister, no matter what happens, the other party will not betray him or the Liu family.

Therefore, Liu Xie also remembered Zhang Rang's words very well: that is, once his father dies, in the whole world, only Zhang Rang is the person he can trust.

Everyone is likely to hurt themselves for profit, because of the blood flowing in them.

Only Zhang Rang can't.

……

"Then, Zhang Changshi, will even you hurt me?"

"My royal father once told me that you are the most loyal person in the world. At that time, I will go to you, won't it work?"

……

Once upon a time, Liu Xie also asked Zhang Rang in this way.

And Zhang Rang's answer was also very direct——

"No."

"When the world is in chaos, even I can't protect myself. If you don't come to me, then the two of us may still have a chance."

"But if you come to me, then the two of us stay together, and it's all over."

……

It was precisely because of this thought that, on that day, the news of Liu Hong's death had just reached the Chenliu Palace. Liu Xie didn't even think about it, so he brought his wife Fushou and a few familiar eunuchs with him , escaped from the direction of the east gate of Luoyang Imperial City.
