Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

At this moment, the sunlight outside the Zhangde Hall was very bright, shining into the hall and just falling at Liu Xie's feet.

Looking at the eunuchs kneeling and bowing in front of him, Liu Xie seemed to feel the presence of previous emperors who had successfully seized power by relying on eunuchs.

Emperor Xiaohe Liu Zhao, Emperor Xiaoan Liu Hu, Emperor Xiaoshun Liu Chong, Emperor Xiaohuan Liu Zhi, Emperor Xiaoling Liu Hong...

In his mind, Liu Xie recounted the deeds of previous emperors who had suffered persecution from their external relatives and then relied on eunuchs to successfully seize power and return it to government.

Since the restoration of Emperor Guangwu, with the exception of four Han emperors who died young, the probability of any Han emperor who was sidelined by his external relatives successfully seizing power through eunuchs when he came of age was as high as 100%.

For a time, Liu Xie’s confidence increased greatly. He felt that if the previous emperors could do it, how could he be inferior to them?

As the eunuchs stood up at Liu Xie's order, Liu Xie strode to the side of Lu Lingqi who was carried by two eunuchs.

The once strong Lu Lingqi has now fallen into a coma.

The eunuch "Zheng Bao", who had completely gained Liu Xie's trust, stepped forward and spoke.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The Queen is not in danger of death. She will be unconscious for about twelve hours before waking up."

"Very good."

Liu Xie raised his chin, and naturally he did not feel any sympathy for Lu Lingqi.

It is said that a husband and wife are bound by love for a hundred days after their marriage. However, although Empress Lu has been in the Eastern Palace for several years, Liu Xie has still not had the opportunity to consummate his marriage with Lu Lingqi.

In Liu Xie's eyes, this was undoubtedly an unspeakable shame and humiliation.

As the Son of Heaven, he was despised and humiliated by the Queen. This is simply an unprecedented event.

Therefore, even though Lu Lingqi was beautiful and heroic, Liu Xie wanted to kill her as soon as possible.

Liu Xie suppressed his disgust for Lu Lingqi and asked instead.

"Zheng Qing, what are the next arrangements?"

"Your Majesty, most of the palace guards are subordinates of the thief Lu, and it is difficult to persuade them to rebel. The longer you stay in the palace, the more dangerous it will be. Once the matter of the queen is heard by the thief Lu, and he orders the palace to be sealed off, it will be difficult to escape. You must leave quickly!"

"Zheng Bao" spoke hurriedly, not leaving Liu Xie much time to think.

Lu Bu's vicious reputation was undoubtedly a huge mountain weighing on Liu Xie's head. When he thought of the fate of being trapped to death in the imperial palace by Lu Bu, Liu Xie's hands hidden in his sleeves could not help but tremble.

"Okay, let's do as Zheng Qing said and leave quickly!"

Liu Xie, who was a little confused for a moment, subconsciously followed the arrangements of "Zheng Bao".

More importantly, Liu Xie did not even have a basic understanding of the external situation, let alone making further judgments.

Immediately, "Zheng Bao" and a group of eunuchs surrounded Liu Xie and walked out of the Zhangde Hall.

At this moment, the emperor's carriage pulled by six imperial horses had stopped outside the Zhangde Hall. Liu Xie was helped onto the carriage and Lu Lingqi was placed in it.

The imperial carriage headed straight towards the Vermillion Bird Gate, the main gate of the North Palace.

Sadly, this was the first time that Liu Xie, who had served as a puppet for many years, rode in the emperor's carriage. This made Liu Xie look around unconsciously, and he suddenly found a set of familiar armor placed in a corner of the carriage.

"Mr. Zheng, could this armor be the bronze horse armor that Emperor Taizu used to pacify the world?" Liu Xie asked uncertainly.

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. This is the armor that Emperor Guangwu once stored in the palace."

"Zheng Bao" stepped forward, bowed and apologized, and explained.

"The armor in the palace is under the supervision of Lu's confidants. Although I have managed to collect some weapons in preparation for the uprising, it is difficult to find armor to transport into the palace."

"This escape may be dangerous along the way. To protect your majesty from getting hurt, I have boldly taken the armor used by Emperor Guangwu to protect your majesty." After hearing this, Liu Xie felt warm in his heart and promised.

"Mr. Zheng is very thoughtful. When I leave Sili, I will reward you greatly and make you a county marquis."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Zheng Bao thanked him with a look of excitement, and then said, "Suzaku Gate is not far away. To ensure the safety of Your Majesty, please allow me to put on your armor for you."

"That's right."

Liu Xie responded, and then "Zheng Bao" called three eunuchs to come forward. One of them supported Liu Xie on the imperial carriage, and the remaining three quickly helped Liu Xie put on his armor.

Soon, the bronze horse armor once used by Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu was worn by Liu Xie.

Liu Xie's face, which originally looked immature and a little cowardly, was enhanced by the bronze horse and armor, and indeed had the heroic majesty of a young emperor.

"Your Majesty, please wear your sword."

"Zheng Bao" once again respectfully presented a Han sword.

Although Liu Xie had never had the opportunity to practice sword skills, he subconsciously took it and wore it around his waist.

Once he had the sharp blade in his hand, Liu Xie instinctively drew the sword. Looking at the sharp sword in his hand, he suddenly felt a sense of ambition.

"What a sword!"

Liu Xie praised, then looked at "Zheng Bao" who still had nothing in his hands, and asked.

"I don't know what weapon Zheng Qing uses, why don't you use the sword in my hand to open a path?"

Even though Liu Xie, whose blood of the old Liu family was passively effective, had no one to teach him, he instinctively began to win over the hearts of the people and was ready to give the sword in his hand to Zheng Bao to kill the enemy.

"Your Majesty, how can you live without a sword for a day? As for me, I will do as I please."

"Zheng Bao" answered respectfully, which made Liu Xie feel even warmer.

As the emperor's carriage rushed through the palace, it undoubtedly caused great commotion, and the distance to the Suzaku Gate was rapidly closing.

Seeing that the Suzaku Gate was approaching, after helping Liu Xie put on armor, "Zheng Bao" and a group of eunuchs also made preparations and grasped the weapons they had prepared in advance.

Liu Xie, who was in the imperial carriage, glanced at "Zheng Bao" out of the corner of his eye and found that "Zheng Bao" was standing in the front of the imperial carriage holding a horse lance that was two meters long.

In comparison, Liu Xie looked at the sword in his hand, and found that it was less than one-third of the lance in length.

However, before Liu Xie could wonder how Zheng Bao, a eunuch, could use a horse lance, the Suzaku Gate, which was blocked by the palace guards, was already in sight.

As long as you rush out of the Suzaku Gate, you can escape from the cage-like palace.

Liu Xie unconsciously felt a strong sense of nervousness and subconsciously clenched the sword in his hand.

There were nearly a hundred guards guarding the Suzaku Gate. Facing the emperor's carriage rushing through the palace, they subconsciously formed a formation to resist and shouted.

"Stop!"

Faced with this scene, "Zheng Bao" shouted without panic.

"The Imperial Decree of the Changqiu Palace, we are leaving the palace for the drill, everyone in front of us please move aside immediately."

Looking at the eunuchs holding weapons and looking murderous on the emperor's carriage, the gate commander guarding the Suzaku Gate was a little overwhelmed when he heard this ridiculous order.

After all, Empress Lü Lingqi has always loved to wield swords and guns. She has been bored in the deep palace for a long time, so it is common for her to organize palace maids and eunuchs to practice military formations. (End of this chapter)
