God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

"Is it just a psychological gap?" Si Niang glanced at Liu Yao, but deep down she didn't really believe this reason.

If Liu Xiu had said such a thing, Si Niang would naturally have believed him, but since it was Liu Yao who said it, it would be a miracle if she had believed him.

"People always have some expectations, don't they?" Liu Yao shook her head, explaining her earlier words.

"Sigh, I just came to ask and understand the process. I can't help you with the result you want..." Si Niang glanced at the room through the door, then quickly looked away, glancing at some water droplets on the stone table, and said with a sigh.

"Oh? Doesn't Your Majesty have any suggestions?" After a slight pause, Liu Yao asked with a hint of curiosity and a pleading tone, "If it were the Imperial Concubine, what choice would she make?"

“You’re asking me?” Si Niang pointed to herself, then shook her head and said calmly, “I don’t know much about worldly matters, but in most cases, just follow your heart.”

Not hearing what she wanted to hear, a hint of disappointment flashed in Liu Yao's eyes, but she quickly smiled again and gently guided him, "Your Highness knows His Majesty very well. In your opinion, what choice will His Majesty make?"

Si Niang took a candy from her sleeve and put it in her mouth. She tilted her head slightly, looking at Liu Yao with a somewhat blank expression, then shook her head to indicate that she didn't know.

Upon seeing this, Liu Yao's hand, which was hidden by the stone table, tensed slightly. After much deliberation, she ultimately decided not to guide the conversation further.

Si Niang's rapid changes made Liu Yao realize that her chances of success were slim, even if she could take a gamble, the odds of success were too small.

"Although I don't know who His Majesty has chosen, based on my observations over this period of time, I have found someone I like. He is so outstanding and so attractive..." Knowing that her schemes had failed, Liu Yao's expression turned wistful, her eyes seemingly shining, as she revealed the person she had already prepared.
She looked like a young girl in the throes of first love, her words brimming with hope. Si Niang looked at Liu Yao with some surprise, then wrote down the corresponding person's name.

“Your Highness, according to His Majesty, the group leader has the right to choose, as long as the other party agrees. However, this matter ultimately concerns the Imperial Clan Court, so please inform them, Your Highness.” Having finally confirmed the result, Si Niang did not delay any longer, politely thanked him, and left the Yangting Princess's residence.

Liu Yao politely escorted Si Niang to the outside of the mansion, her face showing a gentle smile and kindness as she watched Si Niang board the carriage and peacefully watch it drive away.

Liu Yao maintained her smile until the carriage reached the end of the street, returning to her residence. The smile only disappeared when she closed the gate.

"As expected of a noble concubine in the palace, she is truly a master of palace intrigue. Her words are watertight, leaving no room for error." Returning to the stone bench beside the stone table, Liu Yao's gentle smile was gone, replaced by a somewhat gloomy expression.

Hearing Liu Yao's words, Liu Ye walked out of the house, holding a teacup in his hand. Looking at Liu Yao's gloomy face, he said calmly, "You're too hasty. She can't be fooled. Perhaps at first, she was a puppet pushed by everyone, but now, she is His Majesty, the Emperor revered by all the people!"

“It is precisely because she is His Majesty that I need her help, whether directly or indirectly!” Liu Yao glanced at Liu Ye calmly and said very calmly, “Only she, only His Majesty, can help me take revenge in the shortest amount of time.”

"Do you know what price you'll have to pay to achieve your goals by taking advantage of the emperor's words and political mistakes?" Liu Ye, having taken a sip of tea to calm himself, looked at Liu Yao with a more serious tone. "I'm the only one left in my family. Is that enough?" Liu Yao's eyes instantly turned cold as she stared directly at Liu Ye.

Looking into those eyes that showed no fear or apprehension, Liu Ye sensed the determination in Liu Yao's words.

In order to achieve a goal, words, expressions, or even emotions can all become means to achieve that goal. If you cooperate with such a person, will you also become fuel for their efforts?
"But you're too hasty. The Yuan family is very powerful." Liu Ye frowned slightly, unsure whether he was right or wrong, but still offered a hint.

Had it not been for the defeat of Liu Zhang, the governor of Yi Province, Liu Ye would not have needed to act so quickly, choosing to weaken the power of the aristocratic families and strengthen the power of the imperial clan.

Liu Ye did not think it was a reliable idea to strengthen the imperial clan in a short period of time. The imperial clan of the Han Empire was very powerful, but there were very few members of the Han imperial family left. Some arrangements would ultimately be futile.

As for finding a way to reasonably weaken the aristocratic families, that is also a very difficult task. After all, there are many smart people in the aristocratic families, and Liu Ye does not think that he alone can suppress all the aristocratic families.

In this process, Liu Yao's presence is a very good choice.

By leveraging the Yuezhi people's enthusiasm and desire for the princess, Liu Yao's power was enhanced in a short period of time, which also strengthened the power of the royal family.

Then, we can use the strength of this part of the Yuezhi people to weaken the Yuan family. As long as we can weaken the current leader of the aristocratic families, the Yuan family, we can weaken the power of the aristocratic families to a great extent without damaging the foundation of the royal family.

Later, by relying on the power of the Han Empire, it was also possible to further restrain the remaining aristocratic families, allowing more power and influence to return to the Han Empire, thereby ensuring the strength of the Han Empire and the Liu family.

In terms of objectives, Liu Ye and Liu Yao share some overlap in both interests and the goals they choose to pursue, which forms the basis for their cooperation.

By using multi-faceted thinking, making arrangements and plans in advance, understanding the thoughts and goals of the Yuezhi people, and then reducing the number of people in each target group, the Yuezhi people were able to choose fewer targets, and finally, the Yuezhi people chose the target they had decided on.

In order to help the Yuezhi people achieve this goal, Liu Ye even used the method of constantly reducing the number of people to induce the Yuezhi people to show more talent, or rather, to show more benefits.

As for Liu Yao, all she needs to do is provide everything she has, including but not limited to her identity, feelings, and so on.

And it is quite obvious that everything Liu Yao showed to Si Niang was enough to prove that he had basically reached a high level in this area.

But this learning speed surprised Liu Ye, and at the same time, it made her a little scared.

Such a sharpened and honed blade, won't it hurt itself? (End of Chapter)
