Shuhan

Luoyang.

In the queen's palace.

Cao Pi held a stunning beauty in his arms.

The beauty's face is extremely gorgeous, like peonies blooming in spring, so radiant that people dare not look directly at her. The face is plump and plump, and the skin is fair and delicate, like condensed fat. A pair of bright eyes that are good at gazing, and the waves in their eyes seem to be able to draw away people's souls.

If not the Queen of Wei, Queen Guo, who is she?

However, with the beauty in his arms, Cao Pi was not happy at all.

"Hey~"

Cao Pi sighed deeply, his brows furrowed, his face was filled with depression, he could not express his feelings, and he had a bitter look on his face.

"Why is Your Majesty sighing?"

When Queen Guo saw this, she rested her head on Cao Pi's arms and expressed pity in her words.

"The national situation is difficult, so I sigh."

The news that Guanzhong was broken and Chang'an fell had already reached Luoyang.

When Cao Pi saw the news, he felt like he was struck by lightning at first, then he became furious, and now he is in the sad stage.

Now he can only describe it as frustrated.

Beauty is no longer fun, honey water is no longer drinkable, and grapes are no longer delicious.

"It's just that Chang'an was destroyed by the bandits. Why is Your Majesty so depressed?"

Queen Guo's voice is gentle and sweet, like an oriole emerging from the valley, clear and sweet. His temperament is noble and elegant, and his every move exudes an awe-inspiring royal style.

"What do you know, you woman? Guanzhong is the foundation of Wangba and the old capital of the Han Dynasty. It connects the Western Regions and Xiliang. If Guanzhong is occupied by the Han army, we, the Wei Dynasty, will not only lose Guanzhong, but also Liangzhou was completely thrown away, and the Western Regions became Han Dynasty. "

He had been successful in managing the Western Regions in the past two years, but now he was making a wedding dress for the Han Kingdom.

It felt like my wife, who had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in gifts, was being played with, and I felt aggrieved.

"The Han State has regained its old capital, and the world is expected to return to the puppet Han. Moreover, after the Han State controls Guanzhong, Xiliang, and the Western Regions, it will have a steady supply of war horses, and its army will be stronger. In a few years, won't it be Han?" The country wants to invade Hedong and invade our divine capital, Luoyang?"

Thinking of this, Cao Pi's face became even more bitter. He took out the wine bottle lying on his side and drank the strong wine in one gulp.

Wine can express emotions, but after drinking this strong wine, it is like bitter wine. The more Cao Pi drinks, the bitterer his face becomes.

Seeing this scene, Queen Guo slowly stood up from Cao Pi's arms.

"How can a man be so devastated by a few setbacks?"

Queen Guo is wearing a gorgeous palace skirt, and the hem of the skirt sways gently with her steps, which further shows her plump figure and graceful curves.

"King Gou Jian of Yue was a slave in the State of Wu for three years and suffered humiliation, but he did not give up his belief in revenge. After being released to the State of Yue, he secretly trained elite soldiers, sleeping only with some firewood every night, and often eating The taste of gall was to not forget the shame of the past. In the end, he worked hard to restore the country and defeated Wu.

Han Xin, the Marquis of Huaiyin, had great ambitions when he was young, but his life was not satisfactory. He doesn't know how to do business, his family is poor, and he often relies on others to help others. After suffering crotch humiliation, he did not give up on his ideals. Later, he joined the army of Emperor Gao, fully demonstrated his talent in the Chu-Han War, and finally cracked the earth and became king, realizing his ambition. "

Queen Guo stepped forward, held Cao Pi's hand tightly, and said emotionally: "Although Guanzhong has been destroyed, and Chang'an has been occupied by thieves, there are still 100,000 elite soldiers of our Wei Dynasty in Xiliang, Guanzhong. As long as your Majesty cheers up, we can return to China." It’s not impossible to win the pass.”

"Hey~"

Cao Pi sighed deeply again.

clang~
He slammed the wine bottle in his hand to the ground.

"Drunk and sex disturb my body, and frustration destroys my ambition."

Cao Pi slowly stood up.

"The queen is right. After all, it's just that Guanzhong was broken. Isn't it possible for me to recapture it?"

He is the emperor of Wei, how can he have no fighting spirit?

"Three days later, I will personally lead the expedition, and Luoyang will be handed over to the queen and the prince. The prince is young and needs your help for many things."

He showed fatigue and vulnerability in the harem, but it didn't mean that he really had no fighting spirit.

It's just that as the emperor of Wei, he experienced the defeat of Guanzhong, and the Han army became stronger and stronger. Cao Pi was under great pressure!
But no matter how great the pressure is, he is still the emperor of the Wei Dynasty. How can his fatigue be seen by his ministers?
When you are in the outer court, even if you are under great pressure, you cannot show it at all. Instead, you must pretend to be confident of victory.

Acting is very tiring.

If the pressure in the heart cannot be relieved, people will become abnormal sooner or later.

In this world, only Queen Guo can relieve the pressure in his heart.

Not only for sex, but also because they are an old couple and don't need to have other precautions in life.

"Your Majesty, please go. There are concubines, princes, and a group of senior officials in Luoyang. They will be safe."

Luoyang was cleaned up several times by him. Those who had any ulterior motives were all dead, and the remaining people could not cause any trouble.

But Luoyang is the capital after all, so we have to think more about it.

"Summon the prince!"

Cao Pi stood up slowly, the frustrated look on his face suddenly disappeared, and what was left was the majesty of the emperor.

Once a person sits in this position, he will have to endure things that ordinary people cannot endure.

Is it so easy to be called a loner?
Outside the palace, Wei Crown Prince Cao Rui had been waiting outside the palace.

Compared to a few years ago, Cao Rui has gradually grown up.

Fengshen is handsome, like the most dazzling star in the sky.

A pair of sword-shaped eyebrows slanted into his temples, giving him an imposing heroic demeanor, demonstrating his natural kingly demeanor.

He is similar in age to Liu Chan, and now wearing a prince's robe, he exudes nobility and majesty from the inside out.

There are some shadows of Zhen Mi in her eyebrows, but she doesn't look much like Cao Pi.

"Prince Xuan comes to the palace to see you!"

Cao Rui slowly walked in and saw Cao Pi and Queen Guo sitting in the palace.

"My son pays homage to his father, and pays homage to his mother!" After Zhen Mi was kidnapped by the Han Dynasty, Cao Rui passed to Queen Guo. It was precisely because of this that Cao Rui was able to securely sit on the throne of the crown prince.

After all, only the queen's son can be considered a legitimate son.

And Zhen Mi’s son.
Just the son of a sinful woman.

"Get up!"

Cao Pi looked at Cao Rui with a scrutinizing gaze. Seeing that his son was getting taller and taller, with an extraordinary appearance and posture, Cao Pi nodded at first, but when Cao Rui looked up, he saw a face that was 60-70% similar to Zhen Mi. His brows furrowed, and an undetectable trace of disgust immediately appeared in his eyes.

Compared to Cao Pi's complicated feelings for Cao Rui, Queen Guo looked at Cao Rui with a sincere smile on her beautiful face.

She really likes Cao Rui, and Cao Pi will be her support a hundred years later.

after all
As someone close to Cao Pi, there were basically no secrets between Cao Pi and her. Queen Guo also knew very well how Cao Pi was doing.

Not only did Queen Guo know it, but Cao Pi knew it even more.

It is precisely because of this that even though Cao Pi was not satisfied with Cao Rui and even felt a little disgusted deep in his heart, he still allowed him to sit firmly in the position of prince and let his important ministers train and assist him.

In fact, the reason is that Queen Guo can die a good death after a hundred years.

Perhaps apart from this world, the person Cao Pi cares about most now is Queen Guo.

"Has the prince's studies been delayed?"

Cao Rui immediately said: "I am already learning the "Six Tao"."

"Ah."

Cao Pi nodded, suddenly not knowing what to say.

He and the son in front of him really didn't have much in common.

"The prince has been studying hard recently. Even the prince Fu often comes to the palace to praise him. His ability in handling government affairs is improving day by day. Now he is practicing military affairs, and he will definitely succeed in the future."

The father and son had nothing to say, and Queen Guo immediately acted as a lubricant and said with a smile.

"very good."

Cao Pi praised lightly, but there was not much emotion in this praise.

Silence again.

In the end, Cao Pi couldn't stand it anymore.

"If I ask you to supervise the country, how should you carry out this important task of supervising the country?"

Prince Cao Rui stood solemnly and replied respectfully: "Father, my son is well aware of the important responsibility of supervising the country. During my father's expedition, I will fulfill my duties, uphold my father's teachings, and do my best to govern the country and ensure the stability of the country."

He paused and continued: "First of all, I will strengthen communication and collaboration with other ministers to discuss national affairs together to ensure smooth flow of government orders and effective governance. I will respect the opinions of every minister and listen to all parties with an open mind. Suggestions to brainstorm ideas.”

"Secondly, I will pay attention to people's livelihood and well-being and pay attention to the sufferings and needs of the people. I will urge all ministries to take timely measures to solve people's livelihood problems and ensure that people live and work in peace and contentment. At the same time, I will also pay attention to people's livelihood, improve agricultural productivity, and ensure a bumper food harvest. , to provide logistical support for my father’s troops.”

"Furthermore, I will urge the army to strengthen training and strictly enforce military discipline to ensure the safety of Luoyang. In addition, I will also have good relations with the State of Wu and maintain peace and stability on the Jianghuai border."

Finally, the prince took a deep breath and said firmly: "Father, my son will live up to the great trust and do his best to supervise the country and relieve the father's worries. Please rest assured, father, that I will protect this land and country." "

Cao Rui's answer was like something out of a textbook.

After Cao Pi finished listening, a smile finally appeared on his face.

"I will send troops to Chang'an in three days, and Luoyang will be handed over to you and your mother. If you have anything you don't understand or have difficulty making a decision, you should come to your mother and ask for advice."

Cao Rui nodded immediately and said: "No."

Seeing the respectful look of his son in front of him, Cao Pi sighed in his heart, just waved his hand and said, "Go back."

"promise."

Cao Rui slowly left, but the figure behind him made Cao Pi frown unconsciously.

There was a vague feeling in his heart that something was wrong with his son, but he couldn't seem to tell what was wrong specifically.

"Rui'er can shoulder the heavy responsibility of the country, why is Your Majesty still looking sad?"

Seeing Cao Pi's frown, Queen Guo felt a little worried.

"The prince is very scheming!"

After thinking about it for a while, Cao Pi realized where the abnormality came from.

The prince is so fake.

Too fake for him.

"Don't you need to be scheming to be an emperor?" Queen Guo tried her best to make amends.

"hehe."

Cao Pi laughed at himself and said, "But he wouldn't do this to me, my father."

After all, apart from their blood connection, he and Cao Rui were just like two strangers.

"Perhaps this is His Majesty's bloodline!"

When Queen Guo said this, Cao Pi suddenly fell silent.

Three days later.

The Wei army worshiped heaven and swore an oath in the southern suburbs of Luoyang, and the army immediately headed towards Guanzhong.

After the fall of Chang'an, the Wei army in Guanzhong was retreating steadily.

Wei Emperor Cao Pi was still on his way on horseback.
