Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 272 The queen betrayed herself?

"Your Majesty, few people know about Sun Ce's filial piety for Sun Jian in Wancheng. Sun Ce is still young, and he lived in seclusion during the filial piety period. Therefore, I did not order Heibingtai to investigate in detail." Li Ru bowed his head respectfully and explained About Sun Ce in Wancheng.

But Liu Xie didn't care about Sun Ce at this moment. He pressed his lips tightly, forced himself to calm down and waved his hands, "Don't need to say too much, you know what I want to hear."

"Your Majesty," Li Ru was no less nervous than Liu Xie at the moment, and his tone trembled slightly: "Your Majesty, according to my investigation, the maid in the palace in Huaili City is named Nuan Xin. Of course, this is not her. Her real name. This name was given by the person she served after she was selected into the palace."

"Who?" With two simple words, Liu Xie stared at Li Ru's eyes, as if he had exhausted half of his strength.

"Yeting, Lord Fu!" Li Ru gritted his teeth before uttering these words.

With a bang, Liu Xie immediately smashed the warm stone in his hand to the ground!
He had a ferocious face, staring at Li Ru viciously as if looking at an enemy in this world: "This is impossible, Li Ru, do you know who you were slandering just now?!"

"I know." Li Ru looked at the torn warm stone beside him, and naturally understood that Liu Xie wanted to smash that warm stone on his head when he was angry just now.But in the end he managed to maintain his rationality, which made Li Ru dare to continue to say: "However, I just said that this Cai girl once served Mr. Fugui, and did not criticize others. If your majesty does not believe it, I can give this girl Cai's household registration and life one by one. report to His Majesty."

Li Ru began to mechanically talk about the origin of Warm Heart, but Liu Xie didn't listen to a word.In fact, there is no need for Li Ru to explain. Liu Xie, who knows Fushou's character well, knows best that only Fushou would give such elegant names to the maids around him.

At this moment, Liu Xie's mind was in a mess, and he was not willing to accept this fact at all.He stood up high, suddenly felt dizzy, but couldn't find any support for his hands, and the two people in front of him turned into illusory overlapping images in an instant.

Fu Shou actually betrayed himself?

That loyal woman who was praised as unparalleled in the history books; the woman she loved the most and knew that she would not be willing to hurt the slightest bit, would collude with Dong Zhuo's remnants to bring disaster to the world?

Liu Xie felt his hands trembling, and his mind was booming, like thunderbolts exploding one after another.

The Kansai turmoil can be regarded as an accident, but the timing of its occurrence is too weird to be just a coincidence.

At that time, Liu Xie's army had defeated Ji Ling and was about to go all out to attack Yuan Shu.

What an imposing and indescribable timing was that?
However, the Kansai turmoil broke out suddenly, which put the united Han army in a dilemma for a while, forcing Liu Xie to release the tiger Ma Chao from the cage to fight the fire.

Although, this expedient measure finally made the Han army implement the established strategy.But Liu Xie had to admit that his great victory in the Kanto was at the cost of the fall of the Kansai area.

During Ma Teng's reign, the area from Guanxi to Xiaoguan was the territory of the Han Dynasty.In addition to Cui Lie from Longxi, the barrier to the west of the Han Dynasty can be said to be as stable as Mount Tai, except for Han Sui's scabies.As soon as Huaili fell, Han Sui cut the western frontier of the Han Dynasty into two sections, forcing Liu Xie to do his best to ensure a stable and peaceful recuperation in the Guanzhong area in the future, and on the other hand, to Gathered troops again in a stretched situation, and marched westward.

Although Liu Xie tried his best to create an atmosphere of great victory for the Han Dynasty on the surface when he came back this time, he still couldn't help but feel anxious.Because, the Han Dynasty, which has been immersed in compassion and suffering for a long time, now needs victory, not frustrating defeat.

But in fact, if the whole incident is sorted out, many people of insight can see that the benefits gained by the imperial court's dispatch of troops this time are not so encouraging.Or, to be more realistic, the court exchanged the turmoil in Kansai for the springboard in Kanto, and even some advantages outweighed the disadvantages.

Because, the newly recovered land needs a long period of operation before it can truly become the territory of the Han Dynasty.And losing the established land in Kansai, the longer it is in turmoil, the more the prestige of the Han Dynasty will be shaken.

Such a result made Liu Xie fully realize that the change in Kansai could never be just a coincidence.However, he never imagined that the conspiracy hidden behind this scene caught him off guard so much.

Struggling for a moment in the huge vortex of loss, Liu Xie suddenly had a glimmer of clarity in his mind.Wait a minute, although the clues seem to point to Fushou, is this possible?

Fu Shougui is a concubine in the harem, and he knows that she is still the queen of the Han Dynasty in the future.And the Fu family has always been reclusive and indifferent, and it is impossible to pinch Dong Bai's handle to coerce Fushou... Fushou has no motive to betray himself at all!

Thinking of this, Liu Xie widened his eyes, and suddenly stared at Li Ru with a suspicious and fiery gaze.Li Ru was a little uncomfortable being stared at by him, but he didn't dare to say anything, so he had to lower his head respectfully to avoid eye contact.Liu Xie stared at him for a while, then shook his head lightly: Although Li Ru's situation is different from that of Fushou, there is no doubt that it is really stupid for him to collude with Dong Bai to frame Fushou.

His gaze shifted from Li Ru to Diao Chan.This time the staring time was longer, but Diao Chan was a little annoyed, she took a step forward to suppress her anger and said: "Your Majesty, do you suspect that this concubine is related to this matter?"

Liu Xie suddenly smiled and shook his head quickly: "Of course it's impossible, I just suddenly thought that you are a woman. Maybe you can tell me under what circumstances a woman will leave the harem that can guarantee her life. Instead, return to the dangerous and terrible troubled world."

Diao Chan squinted her eyes, as if she didn't understand why Liu Xie asked this suddenly, but she still said truthfully: "Women, in this era, are actually the most pitiful creatures. They all yearn for stability in their hearts but it is difficult to achieve it. But If she has gained stability, she may be deceived by more exciting and illusory lies, and thus do things that they can't even imagine."

Diao Chan's tone was leisurely, as if she was talking about heart-warming, but also about herself.

But Liu Xie didn't care about this, he just summed it up briefly: "In other words, she would only do this when she was deceived?"

Diao Chan was a little annoyed at Liu Xie's manly interpretation, but she had to nod her head and said sullenly, "That's right."

"Very good." Liu Xie didn't have any expression on his face at this time, and when he spit out these two words, he seemed to have completely recovered his calm, as if nothing had happened: "You two step back, this time The investigation is here for the time being, if necessary, I will contact you again."

"Yes." Li Ru and Diao Chan looked at each other, then respectfully retreated, as if they had never been here before.

Watching the two leave.Liu Xie thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled again.At this moment, he actually felt as if he had returned to Hulao Pass and faced the seemingly invincible enemy Lu Bu.

'It seems that even if they want to play dumb and relax for a while, some people don't give themselves this chance. ’ Liu Xie lightly rubbed the welt marks on his neck that were no longer there, and couldn’t help but think of the relationship between him and Dong Bai that was constantly cut and unreasonable: “Dong Bai, these days, I have grown so much. Not much. And you seem to be getting more and more mature and ruthless..."

After saying this, Liu Xie picked up the quilt that was thrown on the ground when he was angry just now, wrapped himself around himself again, and called out: "Leng Shouguang."

"The minister is here." Leng Shouguang quickly appeared, he was a smart man, and he had been hiding in a distant place just now.You can't hear the conversation between Liu Xie and the others clearly, but you can't completely hear Liu Xie's call.

"You go to the Greenhouse Hall, invite Mrs. Fu to come over, and say that I want to see her."

"I obey." Leng Shouguang was taken aback for a moment, and then showed a very subtle expression.

Liu Xie didn't react for a while, but after Leng Shouguang left, he finally understood what Leng Shouguang's smile meant.However, he suddenly couldn't help but want to laugh: would an eunuch, a man with incomplete limbs, still be so wretched and evil?
Thinking of this, Liu Xie suddenly felt that he was in a much better mood: Dong Bai, since you want to play, then I will play with you and see what kind of eyeliner you have placed in my palace... …
