Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 120
It has been raining, and the atmosphere is not harmonious.

Under the same roof, you gradually feel your heart changing.

The future queen of the Han Dynasty never knew that 800 years later, there was a song that fit her mood so well.Standing in the endless lotus leaf pavilion in early summer, she watched the lotus flowers surrounded by clear water trying to stretch out their budding fists, and greeted the summer rain tenderly.It's a pity that even such a beautiful scenery can't make the young man opposite her show off his face.

Fushou was very grateful to Liu Xie, because Liu Xie never said that she would not be allowed to interfere in political affairs, so she naturally learned about this morning's court meeting from Leng Shouguang.When she thought about how this young man confided his heart to herself full of guilt last night, but was crushed by the cold and hard reality today, an indescribable pain suddenly rose in her heart.It seemed that I should have encouraged him more considerately and gently last night.Otherwise, the two of them wouldn't be sitting silently like they are now.

Finally unable to bear the embarrassing atmosphere, Fu Shou sat in front of the piano, and when the drizzle blew and the veil fluttered, she flickered, like a fairy concubine.With a flick of the plain hand, a beautiful piano sound floated in the lotus pond.

When Liu Xie heard the sound of the zither, it was like a gentle breeze blowing against his face, and everything knew spring, which made him feel warm all over his body, and even the residual lotus in the pond seemed no longer so bleak.

Then the sound of the piano changed, like a quiet mountain and autumn sounds, and the moon was high on the forest surface, which made people feel relieved; rise:

"Yi is sighing and prosperous, and he is tall and long.If it is restrained, it is beautiful.Clever tends to stagger, but shooting makes you suffer;

Yi is famous, his eyes are clear, and his appearance is complete.Shooting all day long, not going out of the way, showing my nephew..."

What Fu Shou sang is one of the "Book of Songs * Qi Feng".The ancient rhyme that is very suitable for singing is so intoxicating under the interpretation of the girl's ethereal voice.

At the end of the song, the lingering sound curled up, but Liu Xie hadn't woken up from the beautiful artistic conception.Before he could say anything, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps from behind. Liu Xie looked back and saw three confidantes rushing over in the rain under the guidance of Leng Shouguang.

Xu Huang was a soldier, and he expressed his emotions very directly. He stepped into the lotus pavilion and knelt down on the ground with a bang: "Your Majesty, although the court meeting has been defeated today, the Han Dynasty has not yet reached a situation where all sides are under attack. Your Majesty, you are the proud son of heaven. The pillar in everyone's heart, you must not underestimate yourself, and just sink into the beauty of mountains and rivers!"

After Xu Huang finished speaking, Yang Xiu picked it up.However, when people like him persuade others, they always have such a lack of seriousness.I saw him shaking the Gu pot in his hand, pouted and said: "Your Majesty, you have gambled for three days in a row, but you only lost one game. Although it seems that you have lost everything, it does not mean that you have no capital." Now, as long as we bet on the big one again, it's hard to say who will win and who will lose."

After Zhong Yao heard Yang Xiu's words, the corners of his mouth twitched a little, but he was a virtuous gentleman, and he could distinguish priorities, so he also said: "Your Majesty, General Xu and Yang Shilang are right, although we are at a disadvantage now, However, it is still unknown who will win the deer. What's more, fortune and misfortune depend on one another. I boldly advise Your Majesty, don't let our heart of serving the country with sincerity be discouraged!"

Liu Xie's face was a little confused. After listening to the three people's advice one after another, he looked back at Fushou with a worried face, and finally put his eyes on Leng Shouguang, and said, "You did all this?"

"Damn the villain!" In front of Liu Xie, most of the time Leng Shouguang still forgot that he was already a senior official like Zhongchangshi, and still called himself a 'villain' a lot.Seeing Liu Xie's complexion, he quickly knelt down on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, you said that the villain is your confidant, but the villain is not Zhang Rang and other close officials who deceive His Majesty. You will kill the villain today. Man, the villain also wants to invite these people to explain His Majesty...Your Majesty, you must not give up!"

"Why did I give up?" Liu Xie finally understood what was going on, looking at these people's misery and the solemnity of a strong man Yishui, it would be a lie to say that he was not moved.But the question is really not suitable for sensational use: "Hurry up, don't be discouraged one by one. Isn't it just that Wang Yun forced the palace once? When Dong Zhuo entered the Xuanshi Palace with a sword in his hand, I dared to drink with him Two cups, such a fart is nothing!"

Everyone looked at each other, and they all looked at Liu Xie in disbelief.Seeing everyone's reaction, Liu Xie had no choice but to explain in detail: "Although Wang Yun is in power today, it is not a big problem for the overall situation. On the surface, Hu Zhen was sent outside the pass, and it is likely that he was sent to the other side of the border. However, after he left, Chang'an's military situation became much clearer. What's more, I will not accept the Liangzhou tribes outside the pass without a bottom line and unconditional, let Hu Zhen, a shit-stirring stick, go out and stir up trouble. Stirring, on the contrary, it is easier to pick out those thorns."

"As for Han Sui and Ma Teng, it's a bit difficult to deal with. However, the old guy Wang Yun is not confused. At least he threw away two official positions to temporarily confuse them. I have been thinking about Han Sui for a long time. He is not easy to save money. Deng. After getting the imperial edict, I'm afraid my mind will immediately turn to Ma Teng, and the two of them started to fight first, which gave us enough time."

Seeing that Liu Xie's words were reasonable and logical, everyone believed that Liu Xie was really fine.But Fushou was obviously more worried about Liu Xie than these men, so he couldn't help but asked again: "Then why is Your Majesty so depressed after returning to the palace?"

Only then did Liu Xie sigh, looked up at the light rain in the sky, pointed to the thatched huts built by the small yellow gates outside the pavilion, and said worriedly: "Today, during the court meeting, the clouds cover the mountains. , the ground is not dry, there are broken purple clouds in the morning, and moss in the water, this is clearly a sign of the coming rainstorm."

"Heavy rain?" Zhong Yao really has the potential to be a great official in the frontier, and he was the first to react: "Chang'an is suffering from the poison of swords and weapons, and the drainage channels have long been blocked. If the heavy rain comes, the eight waters will swell, and Chang'an may be in danger of being flooded..."

Liu Xie was startled, he hadn't thought of this at all.The reason why he looked at the hut built outside the pavilion was because the high-yielding crops he had brought from his previous life had been planted under the hut.In order not to be washed away by the heavy rain, I was worried.But after being reminded by Zhong Yao, he immediately recalled the ditch filled with mud on Chang'an Street, and his expression changed drastically.

"Gongming, quickly order your soldiers to take to the streets to clean up the ditches!" Liu Xie is a person who does what he says, and now that the fate of the Han Dynasty is ill-fated, he doesn't want to make extra troubles at this juncture.Immediately he ordered Zhong Yao again: "Yuanchang, please send an order for General Huangfu, General Zhu, Lu Bu and others to lead their troops to go with you. Dezu, you go back to the mansion and tell Old Yang, asking him to come forward and order Chang'an Guixun to cooperate. This matter concerns the lifeline of Chang'an, so I summon Wang Yun to come and handle this matter quickly."

The awkward atmosphere was completely shattered by Zhong Yao's words, Liu Xie didn't care about saying goodbye to Fushou, so he rushed out of the pavilion in the rain.Leng Shouguang wanted to follow, but was stopped by Liu Xie, who ordered Leng Shouguang to look after the less than one-acre garden, and sternly declared that if the place was half-drenched by rain, he would never see him again.

Liu Xie's response was untimely, but the sudden rainstorm came as expected at night.At dusk, the light rain stopped. Just when everyone thought it was a false alarm, dark clouds filled the sky again, as if the night had fallen early.Soon there was thunder and lightning again, and then the big raindrops fell down, smashing Saturns all over Chang'an.

Fortunately, Liu Xie mobilized in time, and before the heavy rain came, the [-] army plus officials and servants and the common people covered the grain and fodder stored in the open air with rain gear, and crudely dredged the ditches in Chang'an City.Thanks to his ancestors' precautions, Liu Xie discovered that the drainage facilities in Chang'an City were actually very advanced.Chang'an, a city full of disasters, not only has a perfect city to resist man-made disasters, but also has an underground waterway to prevent natural disasters.After dredging the blocked ditches, the underground spider web-like drainage system became the hero of the heavy rain.

However, just as those soldiers screamed, stripped off their clothes and rushed into the rain to take a bath.The situation in the palace was not so optimistic. The rainstorm was fast and urgent, but this was not Liu Xie's trouble. Instead, every time the lightning flashed in the sky, Liu Xie was thrilled.Finally, when a bolt of lightning struck the copper pillars in the front hall of Weiyang Palace and caused a fire, Liu Xie cursed bitterly: "You goddamn god, I said to remove the lightning rod a long time ago, but I still forgot about it!" Son!"

Most of the imperial palaces in the Han Dynasty were made of wood. After the heavy rain ignited the fire, the raging flames raged one after another in the rain.The entire imperial palace suddenly became a world of fire and water, and countless maids, eunuchs, and guards were as busy as mad dogs under the command of various officials.But when they finally got a clear order, they were all dumbfounded.

Their most respected emperor of the Han Dynasty actually told them not to care about the front hall of Weiyang Palace and the dignified face of the Han Dynasty, but to rush to Tianlu Pavilion to fight the fire and the edge of the Cangshui.There, His Majesty the Emperor has long been a drowned chicken. He yelled like crazy to ask people to save all the books in Tianlu Pavilion quickly, and the rest of them went to Cangchi to stabilize the newly built thatched hut.

Working desperately until dawn, all the people in the palace were exhausted. With the last bit of strength, Liu Xie saw that Tianlu Pavilion did not suffer much damage, and that the thatched hut did not collapse. Finally, he sat down in the muddy water. He didn't even have the strength to curse God.
