Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 479 The Sad Woman

Liu Xie swears on his life that he has never had any machismo, nor has he had the slightest intention to look down on women.In fact, it was not easy for a man in his previous life not to be discriminated against by women. How could he have the right to discriminate against women?
But in the Han Dynasty, this really required specific analysis of specific issues.The Han Dynasty is different from his previous life. The biggest difference is that most women in this era cannot read or read!
If you don't read books, you will be hard to be wise, and you will be unwise. If you do things, you can only rely on instinct.And relying on instinct to deal with state affairs that cannot be controlled by reason, hehe...

Of course, things cannot be completely denied in this way.Take Diao Chan next to Liu Xie as an example. She definitely doesn't read much, but her experience has experienced the harshness of the world. The kind that sells her body—and then comes into contact with the sea of ​​conspiracy and treacherous political struggles. Do you think she is not better than a nerd who only knows how to read all day long?
But what about Yan?

Liu Xie didn't know her origin, it wasn't recorded in history books, and he wasn't very interested in knowing.He only needs to know that this Yan family was married by Lu Bu when he was the boss of Ding Yuan's account.That can only show that the Yan family came from the lowest family of the gentry. After all, the gentry who really had some face would disdain to marry their daughter to a warrior at that time.

However, the low-level gentry were the most severely poisoned by etiquette. Before the Yan family got married, they would definitely not show their faces, and would only stay out of the door and stay out of the second door.

Moreover, judging from Lu Bu's experience in Luoyang and Chang'an, this Yan family has never changed his identity except for his husband and goddaughter, and has never had any contact with, let alone participate in political conspiracy.Perhaps, until Lu Bu was in exile, she didn't know why all this happened.

Not studying, illiterate, and having no work experience... It is actually unscientific to deny the Yan family in this way.After all, there are many things in the world that science cannot explain, for example, some people are gifted and born with knowledge.But right now, judging from all the chaos in Yanzhou, Liu Xie really can't regard Yan as a qualified leader, and it's hard not to attribute the root cause of everything to her.

And then, Yan's series of performances also made Liu Xie frown frequently.

After bowing to Liu Xie, Yan did not wait for Liu Xie to speak, and began to direct Zhang Liao, Chen Gong and others to carry Lu Bu, who was in a mess, into the house.Then she asked everyone to back down, and then she stepped forward and patted Diao Chan who had fainted just now, and said: "My husband has been depressed recently, and I usually love you the most. You stay in the house to take care of my husband to rest."

Diao Chan was a little astonished, Yan Shi had never met the emperor, but she knew the etiquette of emperors and ministers in Situ Wangyun's mansion.Yan's way of not paying attention to the emperor and all the officials of the Han Dynasty, and acting recklessly, can be counted as a crime of contemptuous of the emperor. After waking up, Diaochan immediately bowed down and apologized to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty! , Elder Sister Yan doesn't know etiquette, and her mind is messed up, she only thinks about her husband, that's why she is so negligent and disrespectful, Your Majesty Wanwang, don't blame me."

At this moment, Liu Xie clearly saw that the coldness that Yan had just pretended to be cracked.She glanced at Diao Chan in disgust and even murderously, resenting Diao Chan's pleading words just now.It's just that, after all, she has also experienced strong winds and waves, knowing that this kind of emotion should not be shown in front of outsiders, so she endured it now.

Up to now, Liu Xie's guess is almost completed: two consecutive defeats in the battlefield made Lu Bu unable to bear the setbacks, and handed over Yanzhou's official affairs to the Yan family.It's fine for the Yan family to be ignorant of official duties, but they inevitably bring personal emotions into official duties, making Yanzhou a mess.

From Yan's appearance to now, Liu Xie can see that she is a very insecure woman.That's why she disguised herself with a frosty appearance, but after all, these disguises were not the confidence in her heart, so where did she accumulate her sense of security?

A woman's world is nothing more than her husband and children, especially in this era.Lu Lingqi is a daughter, so that the Yan family can't rely on the mother to be precious, so the rest is her husband's doting.

But Lu Bu is really not a caring and good husband, especially after Chang'an, the appearance of Diao Chan made the Yan family suddenly insignificant in front of Lu Bu - this woman who lost all her support in her heart, when faced with such a foundation in Yanzhou, What would she think?
Just like those women in the previous life, when there is no good man to dote on, they will use money and material things to satisfy their emptiness.Yan's is no exception. She, who has no chance, can move around in this troubled world like a man at this time, and taste the taste of power.There is no doubt that her mind will change rapidly, and the first thing to do is to consolidate everything she has.

Therefore, this woman, who has hardly accepted the concept of monarch and minister, subconsciously regards Yanzhou as her own private property.He wanted to use this method to improve his position in Lu Bu's heart.Subtly, her daughter Lu Lingqi will also have the idea that Yanzhou is her own, and regard Liu Xie and the Han Dynasty as potential enemies.

As a result, Liu Xie entered Yanzhou without anyone to greet him, Lu Lingqi's army wanted to give Liu Xie a disarm, and all other incidents can be explained.It can be said that Yan Shi is the epitome of a sad woman in this era, but the things she did are even more sad.

However, there are still some doubts that Liu Xie has no answer to.Even if Mrs. Yan acts recklessly in Yanzhou, she can subdue Zhang Liao and other veteran generals under Lu Bu like Zhang Liao just because she is a girl, and Chen Gong, who is quite resourceful, can watch Yan's tossing like this ?
Also, what Lu Lingqi said to herself outside the city was obviously impossible for a girl like the Yan family to say it.The general trend of the world is too far away and unfamiliar for a woman...

The chaos in Yanzhou is not just a simple reason.

So, Liu Xie waved his hand indifferently.In fact, now that things have come to an end, he is no longer in the mood to discuss their consequences with Lu Bu or Yan Shi.Ignorance is a crime. Neither Lu Bu nor Yan would understand this truth.

But after all, Liu Xie wants to find the root cause. In order not to let the people who are hiding in the dark notice, he has to endure it: "Mr. Yan, I just want to know that facing the state of Yanzhou, you have nothing to do." Experience, do you have to act according to your feelings when dealing with official affairs?"

This is a very sharp and provocative question, and Liu Xie knows how strong such a question is to a sensitive person like Yan.Sure enough, Yan's chest rose and fell quickly, and he glanced at Diaochan again, realizing that the young man in front of him was the emperor above him, and then he replied: "I am a female, so I dare not act arbitrarily, and the official duties are handled by me. It's just obeying the will of the husband. What's more, there are Zhonglang counselors in the mansion, and all government affairs are discussed and decided, so why do you act according to your feelings?"

"Engaged in Zhonglang? Huh?..." Liu Xie is such an old man in the officialdom, Yan's only said this, he grasped the key point, and said with a smile: "I never knew that there are talents in Yanzhou, Why don't you come out and meet?"

Yan Shi didn't know what it was, she turned around coldly and shouted: "Wang Zong, Xu Zong, you two haven't come out to meet the Son of Heaven?"

Afterwards, two people in Confucian shirts came out in embarrassment, and Liu Xie clearly felt that when the two showed up, Zhang Liao couldn't help being angry.And Chen Gong, who was silent at the side, couldn't help but let out a sigh.

Liu Xie secretly smiled, turned to Chen Gong without looking at the two men, and asked, "Gongtai, these two are from Yanzhou, and you are also a celebrity in Yanzhou, have you ever known each other?"

Chen Gong smiled lonely, knowing that Liu Xie had seen a lot, and said, "Return to Your Majesty, to be sure, these two people were recommended by Wei Chen to General Fenwu. It's just that I never thought that Wei Chen was in the eyes of these two people. , but you are a thief who has corrupted morals and caused disasters in the local area.”

Liu Xie naturally knew that Wang Kai and Xu Si were here.The background of these two people is not trivial. They had been working as Zhonglang as early as when Cao Cao ruled Yanzhou.Although the credit is not small, it's just that these two people are not even able to perform basic tasks apart from being good at talking and talking.

What Liu Xie was most afraid of was that there were too many people like this in the court, but he didn't expect these two people to get along well with Lu Bu.After the two of them performed the royal and ministerial ceremony, Liu Xie immediately asked with a smile: "You two, I heard that you and Gongtai are good friends. Why did Gongtai say just now that the three of you are strangers now?"

"Chen Gong's two betrayals, ignorant of the general trend, willful and reckless, we were bewitched, reluctantly obeyed, tarnished the name of innocence, deeply ashamed, and I don't want to be with this person!" The two looked at each other. , Xu Si said angrily.

But at this moment, Chen Gong's face suddenly turned ashen, as if he had been hit hard.But Liu Xie didn't take it seriously, and just replied lightly: "Okay, you have personality! It's just..." After saying the previous sentence, Liu Xie's face suddenly changed, and he asked sharply: "General Fenwu is an important member of the imperial court. , Cao Mengde went against the grain and slaughtered Xuzhou. According to your opinion, Chen Gongtai’s righteous deed of introducing General Lu into Yanzhou to save one party is not as famous as your shit?!"
