Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 231 The Emperor's Resistance

The words in Yang Biao's letter did make Liu Xie a little excited.

In fact, there was some resistance in Liu Xie's personality, but it was not a lot.

This is naturally related to his experience.

From Dong Zhuo to Li Jue, Guo Si and then to Cao Cao, everyone regarded him as the emperor, but how could they regard him as the emperor in their hearts?
He has always been known as the Son of Heaven, but has been controlled by others.

This experience even made him somewhat accustomed to it.

In addition, after the Yidaizhao incident, the loyal and righteous people around Liu Xie were eliminated once again, and he had even less desire to resist!
It was not until Cao Cao became king that Liu Xie began to have some desire to resist again.

He also knew very well that the next step after Cao Cao became king would most likely be to become emperor!

If we don't resist, the Han Empire will soon fall into his hands!
Although he had long expected that this day would probably come, as it approached, Liu Xie felt a little uneasy.

Now that he heard that Cao Cao was seriously ill again, his desire to resist finally began to revive again.

After reading Yang Biao's letter, he made the decision without hesitation!

He wanted to ask the imperial physician for news about Cao Cao.

Liu Xie himself felt that it was relatively easy for him to find out this matter.

He then lied that he was sick and asked the imperial physician to see him.

Although Liu Xie was an emperor who was held hostage, he was still an emperor after all.

Upon hearing that he was unwell, they naturally could not just ignore it, so they immediately sent a royal physician to check on the situation.

Although Liu Xie was pretending to be sick, he had been depressed for many years and was under house arrest. He actually had some health problems, and the imperial physician he called in would not feel that there were any flaws.

He immediately prescribed several prescriptions.

Liu Xie sighed, "Doctor, how is my body?"

The imperial physician replied honestly, "Your Majesty is fine, but your energy and blood circulation are a little weak. Please use my two prescriptions and you will be well in a few days."

Unfortunately, the old doctor's comforting words did not make Liu Xie feel any better.

He sighed again and said, "I am young, but in such a weak state. I am afraid I will not live longer than the King of Wei."

This sigh contains so much meaning!

The old doctor was no fool, of course he didn't dare to respond. He just pretended he didn't hear and just focused on organizing his medicine box.

But how could Liu Xie let him go?

Today, the imperial physician cannot just choose not to talk about it!

When Liu Xie saw that the imperial physician was playing dumb, he suddenly said in a cold voice, "It seems that you, the doctor, think the same way."

Got it!
Hearing the emperor's cold voice, the old doctor didn't dare to play dumb anymore. He could only smile and said, "Your Majesty, why do you say that? Your Majesty is young and strong, and you still have many years to live."

Liu Xie heard the old doctor keep trying to fool him, so he could only explain it directly.

But he asked, "I heard that the King of Wei has been feeling unwell recently, what's wrong?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the imperial physician was so frightened that his hands began to tremble.

He was shaking so much that he couldn't even close the medicine box. It was obvious that he was very nervous.

After a long while, he stammered, "Well, the King of Wei is not the one I went down to see, so I really don't know what the situation is."

Liu Xie was relentless: "Even if you didn't go, you would still know some news."

The old doctor saw that if he didn't tell the truth today, he might not be able to leave, so he could only say: "I heard that the King of Wei really needs to rest for some time."

After hearing this, Liu Xie was shocked!
But he secretly said: "Take some time to rest. It seems that Cao the thief is no longer able to survive."

"But how can we ask the King of Hanzhong to send troops again?"

"It has to be like a secret decree, otherwise I'm afraid it won't be delivered!"

After thinking for a while, Liu Xie looked at the doctor's expression again. Seeing that he looked nervous and scared, he knew that he must not be deceived. He felt that he was sure, so he waved his hand and told the doctor to go away.

However, no one noticed that after the imperial physician turned around, he no longer looked nervous, but only had a slightly sarcastic and cruel smile on his face.

But Liu Xie didn't see this smile at all.

After bidding farewell to the imperial physician, Liu Xie thought over and over again and decided that he could only ask Yang Biao to think of a solution for this matter.

But his situation as a loyal person isn't much better than mine!
After being dismissed from his official position, Yang Biao used the remaining money to gather warriors and wanted to leave the city, which was not much easier than his own.

But if he was not asked to find a solution to this matter, other people in the palace would be under Cao Cao's surveillance.

Besides
Liu Xie also did not trust these people.
Now only Yang Biao can be trusted.

He immediately wrote a letter, saying that Cao Cao was seriously ill and asked Yang Biao to find a way to go to Chengdu so that Liu Bei could quickly lead troops to rescue him.

Of course, Zu Bi still had to send letters to this matter.

After secretly sending the letter, it was handed over to Yang Biao.

When Yang Biao received the secret letter from the emperor and learned that Cao Cao was really seriously ill, he felt quite excited.

But it was difficult for him to send the letter out of the city.

After much thought, I decided to ask for external help.

But of course you have to be very cautious about who you invite.

After all, if one is not careful in this matter, not only will he be doomed, but the emperor will also be in danger!

But if I go to find an ordinary person, and I can't leave the city easily, what should I do?

Just when he was in trouble, Yang Biao thought of someone.

Who?
It was Cui Yan who walked out of here early!

Of course. Cui Yan is in Chengdu now, so we naturally can't count on him.

Even though Cui Yan failed, the Cui family was still here.

If I go and try it out, maybe the Cui family can be used!
Thinking of this, Yang Biao immediately decided to go to Cui's house.

That day, I arrived at Cui's house cautiously, but found that the door was closed!

I was secretly wondering why the door of the mansion was so tightly closed in broad daylight, and there was no one watching outside.

It's just that the arrow is on the string and has to be fired.

I went up and knocked on the door, but there was no response!
Thinking that he had to hand in his business card no matter what today, he was about to knock on the door again when a group of Cao soldiers suddenly appeared.

He walked up to him and arrested Yang Biao in front of Cui's house without saying a word.

Yang Biao was horrified, as he was carrying a secret letter from the emperor. If Cao Cao got hold of it, the matter would be exposed and everything would be over.

But he struggled and said, "What are you doing? I am Yang Biao, and I came to Cui's house to discuss matters. How can you arrest me?"

But no matter how loudly Yang Biao shouted, the only response he got was the closed door of Cui Mansion and the ruthless iron hand.

Then a fierce voice was heard: "Yang Biao! Don't hurt anyone else, I'm going to arrest you today!"

That's right, this voice sounds brave.

When he turned around, he saw that the person coming was none other than Xu Chu!
When Yang Biao saw that the person who came was a close general of Cao Cao's army, he knew that the matter had been exposed long ago!

Suddenly, Yang Biao understood everything!
"Cao Cao!"

"He must be pretending to be sick!"

"Lure those loyal to the Han Dynasty and capture them all in one fell swoop!"
