Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 136

The night above the Xuanshi Hall finally slowly descended, enveloping the entire Weiyang Palace in a peaceful and deep atmosphere, but everyone in the palace knew that the undercurrent of the night in this palace was surging fiercely.Because, the strong bloody smell in Xuanshi Hall is constantly stimulating their hearts that are either panic, anticipation or indifference.

At this time, only half of the lights were lit in the oath hall.Those guards and maids all knew that only when the young emperor was in a very bad mood would he hate light.For this reason, the entire Weiyang Palace will try not to light those pine torches at this time, in order to cater to the gloomy mood of the emperor.

At this time, standing beside Liu Xie gracefully is no longer the armored Huangfu Song and Xu Huang, nor is it Fushou who appeared when Liu Xie needed it most, nor is it the magnificent enchantress Diao Chan.

Fortunately, the emperor's preferences are still in line with the basic orientation of men.Judging from the slender figure behind him, the person standing behind him is undoubtedly a woman. Although the face cannot be seen clearly in the dim light, judging from the habit of this emperor who has always been in contact with beautiful women, this The appearance of a famous woman must also be the beauty of the country and the city.

The two of them just stood and sat quietly like that, and there was no exchange of half a word during the time of a stick of incense.They all looked at the gate of the Xuanshi Hall from time to time, obviously waiting for something.

"Miss Zhaoji, it's only one more day now, and we may have to wait for a long time." Liu Xie turned his head, glanced at Cai Yan, who was already starting to feel uneasy behind him, waved his hand and said, "No, let's talk about it, let's talk about it." Come here to kill time, and secondly, I also have some things I want to ask Miss."

Cai Yan hesitated for a moment before giving a slight salute, but when she sat down in front of a blank set of Go, she still said habitually: "Your Majesty, this Go was created by strategists during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, and it is a harmful fraud. The way of falsehood is not the learning of emperors."

"Well, this game of go and chess is too brain-intensive. In fact, I prefer fighting the landlord and playing mahjong, but unfortunately you don't know it at all." Liu Xie replied casually without raising his head, obviously not listening to Cai Yan's words middle.

Cai Yan was not in the mood to listen to Liu Xie's nonsense. She knew that Liu Xie was the kind of person who usually seemed informal but had a very tough mind. She couldn't persuade her with a few simple words.But when she saw that there were actually nineteen moves in the chess game, she couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, there are only twelve moves in this game. Why did Your Majesty change twelve to nineteen?"

"Well, because it can waste some more time?" Liu Xie thought for a moment, and then spit out the answer that is not an answer at all, and then said impatiently: "There are so many whys in the world, can we still answer them?" Having fun?"

No matter how docile Cai Yan's temperament was, hearing Liu Xie's words caught his ears, he still couldn't help showing a trace of anger.When she was not out of the cabinet, the world passed on her as a talented woman.It is said that she is erudite and talented, and her musical talent has been outstanding since she was a child. When she was six years old, she heard her father playing the piano in the hall, and she heard the first string of his father's piano broke through the wall.When her father was surprised, he deliberately broke the fourth string, but she heard it again.When she grew up, she was even more of a master at playing the piano. As soon as she played it, the clouds in the sky would freeze, the water would stagnate, and the flowers, plants and trees would be silent.

As for those hand chatterers, she is even better.But in Liu Xie's eyes, these seem to be less useful than a utilitarian statement she made against her will in Tingwei's prison.Thinking of this, she picked up a sunspot and landed on the chessboard first.

In just a few steps, Cai Yan could see that the young emperor's chess skills really stink to the street.To say that he was just getting started was a little flattering, but within a short time, the chessboard was full of black pieces, and Liu Xie's bleak white pieces were like rice grains in a colony of ants, which might be devoured at any time.

Of course, Cai Yan could also see that Liu Xie was absent-minded, but the root cause was that the emperor's basic skills were not up to standard.Such a result made the impression that Liu Xie was the hero of the Warring States Period collapsed and scattered all over the place in an instant.What made her even more unexpected was that the face of this young emperor was actually thicker than the city wall.

Because, at the end of the game, he didn't say anything.He just thought about it for a long time, finally raised his head slightly, and said with a hint of discussion: "Zhaoji, this [-]th-way Go game is too much effort, I still teach you a novel game of backgammon, okay? "

"Not good." Cai Yan will drop the black stones, and swallow Liu Xie's three white stones in the blink of an eye.Seeing that Liu Xie was really embarrassed by the loss, she didn't want to force her too much, and changed her words: "Your Majesty has something to say, the chess skills are a little rudimentary, so it can only be used for entertainment."

Being slapped in the face by Cai Yan like this, Liu Xie was so regretful that his intestines were almost green, so he took out his trump card and said with a heavy face: "Miss Zhaoji, do you know that there is nothing in this world that has no legs but runs away?" Faster than Dawan Liangju?"

Zhao Ji pondered for a moment, and finally shook her head, obviously unable to accept this kind of brain teaser question.

"It's a rumor. Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe heard rumors in Chang'an that the people from Bingzhou wanted to kill all the people from Liangzhou..." As soon as the words came out, Liu Xie saw that Cai Yan's face was really shaken, and took the opportunity to wipe the chessboard all over his face It was a mess, and then he said in pain:

"Now the whole city of Chang'an is like a frightened bird. Once the rumor of Jia Xu's old fox is spread, it is like the sound of a frightened bow. It is conceivable that once the rumor spreads all over the sky, the whole city of Chang'an will be exhausted and panicked. , What kind of turmoil will happen? What's more, Jia Xu, that old fox, has never been a targetless person. After his rumor plan, there will definitely be someone who is hard to guard against..."

At this time, Cai Yan's mind was no longer on the chess game. As soon as she thought of the unknown horror, she couldn't help but fell into a burst of uncontrollable worry. Seeing that Jia Xu has such a poisonous plan, is there no way to deal with it?"

"Of course not. Rumors are only limited to wise men. But what we have to face are ordinary people who only listen to these exciting and surprising news." Liu Xie said very irresponsibly, and expressed his admiration. Spreading his hands, he said, "Besides, I have courtiers to hinder my advance, and there is no way out. Even if you want to overthrow that whimsical Master Situ and then fight with the tribes of Liangzhou outside the pass, that Fangzheng gentleman of your father can't even connect with the most important The letters can be discarded casually, it is really a big man that God does not bless me."

Just when Cai Yan had nothing to say, there was a sudden noise outside the gate.Liu Xie's eyes lit up, and he hurried forward, but before he reached the door, the window was opened, and a big sack was thrown into Xuanshi Hall.

Cai Yan let out a muffled groan after seeing the sack fall to the ground, and then struggled back and forth with a muffled groan. Immediately, Huarong paled with fright, and almost exclaimed.Fortunately, Liu Xie had quick eyesight and quick hands, and turned around and covered Cai Yan's mouth: "Don't scream, you go and open the sack to have a look first. Remember, you can't scream after seeing it."

Cai Yan, who was so frightened by this accident, suddenly calmed down when he heard the voice behind his ears.In fact, not only did she calm down, but she also became angry.Because at this time, she finally felt that a naughty little hand was covering her plump chest.

"Your Majesty!" When Liu Xie's hand was released from his mouth, Cai Yan's cheeks fluttered, and she said in embarrassment, "Please respect yourself!"

It was only at this moment that Liu Xie realized that there was an astonishing heat and elasticity coming from his left hand. He suddenly took his left hand away and explained again and again: "Don't, don't get me wrong, it's just... it's just because of my height. I made a wrong hand... a wrong hand." He said so, but the bottom of his heart regretted it for the second time: Damn, I am the emperor now, why are you still so stupid?However, I really can't see that Cai Yan is so clever...

The two naturally maintained a high degree of agreement on this matter, keeping each other secret.However, when Cai Yan carefully opened the mouth of the sack, Liu Xie's eyes were fixed on Cai Yan's every move.Because he believed that after seeing the things in the sack, Cai Yan would definitely not be able to help but exclaim.

Sure enough, when Cai Yong was rescued by Cai Yan, who looked embarrassed and had a white silk gait on his mouth, Cai Yan's expression changed drastically again.Liu Xie saw the opportunity and stepped forward quickly.Unfortunately, just when his plot was about to succeed, Cai Yan's keen intuition felt the deep malice around him, and she couldn't help but turn around and shouted to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, you have troubled you!"

"Actually, it's not troublesome. I always like to help others..." Liu Xie suddenly blushed and froze in place, wringing his hands and whispering back.But Cai Yong's words after that completely left these charming thoughts behind.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has the ability to never forget!" Cai Yong, who took off the white silk steps in his mouth, didn't even care about giving courtesy, and opened his mouth to say this.

"I know, you are showing off."

"No, Your Majesty, the old minister can recite the contents of that secret letter verbatim!"
