Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 529

With the conclusion of the negotiations between Han and Cao, the battle situation in Yanzhou was quickly and effectively eased.The cloud of war hanging over the Beiji River disappeared quietly one after another.Lu Bu finally entered Chenliu City safely, took over the city defense temporarily, and waited for the arrival of the emperor.

Regardless of how Yuan Shao, the former emperor of the Han Dynasty, the chariot general Yuan Shao, and Cao Cao, who is still a traitor, worked so hard to make the next move in Yanzhou.However, with the return of the Han army to the west, the chess pieces on the chessboard in Yanzhou gradually returned to their original positions.

Although Liu Xie didn't want to admit it, in fact, Yanzhou officials from the prefectures and counties to the common people and soldiers all secretly breathed a sigh of relief. slightly extended.

After the army marched into Chenliu City, Liu Xie needed to replenish supplies here.Of course, before Cao Cao takes over the city, he still needs to take away as much as possible.The armistice and the alliance agreement were reached, but according to the agreement, Chenliu City was not a city that paid taxes to the Han Dynasty. Therefore, if there was such an opportunity, Liu Xie would naturally pass by and not let it go.

However, rather than being able to search here, Liu Xie actually hopes to see the mysterious Guo Jia.According to historical records and other people's descriptions, Liu Xie felt that he and Guo Jia must have a lot in common.

It's a pity that Guo Jia had expected this a long time ago.Before Liu Xie arrived, he was already in the sky, leaving only Liu Xie a terrified Zhang Miao.

"Zhang Mengzhuo..." Liu Xie paced around, looked helplessly at Zhang Miao who was kneeling on the ground, not even daring to raise his head, and asked, "You say you are like this, how can I deal with you?"

"Chen, I should be guilty..." Zhang Miao really didn't dare to look up at that young face. In fact, Liu Xie's playful words and unhurried steps made him feel deeply. The coercion of the superior.

Although, he also told himself again and again in his heart that these invisible oppressions were nothing but his guilty conscience.But when it came time to face Liu Xie, he had to admit that some people had been in power for a long time, and the self-confidence and pride they showed all the time was indeed frightening.Especially, when this person can decide the life and death of his entire family with one word.

Fortunately, Guo Jia's words before leaving gave Zhang Miao a lot of courage.Let him suddenly wake up and change his words before he said something stupid enough: "Your Majesty, I have never had it before, so why talk about handling it?"

"Huh?..." Zhang Miao's answer was naturally beyond Liu Xie's expectation.He looked carefully at Zhang Miao's trembling body, thought for a moment, and then asked, "Is this what Guo Jia asked you to tell me?"

"I dare not lie to Your Majesty, it is indeed Guo Fengxiao who told me to do so."

"Then what else did he tell you?"

"He said that in order for His Majesty to return to Guanzhong with dignity, the minister never rebelled against the Han Dynasty. The reason why His Majesty withdrew his troops was because of the hasty battle in Kansai, so His Majesty had no choice but to do so." Zhang Miao hardly said a word. Change, truthfully reported this sentence to Liu Xie.Although, he didn't understand why.

Of course Liu Xie knew why. Right now, his personal power is in full swing, which fully supports his capital in ruling the court and arbitrarily arbitrarily.Liu Xie can admit that he has not done his best, but he must not let the court and the world know that he was caught in Cao Cao's tricks, so he had to reach a secret agreement with Cao Cao to withdraw from Yanzhou.

After all, no matter how wise and mighty a king is, there are also failures that he hasn't done his best.But if he was threatened by a rebellious minister and retreated, it would be an indelible stain on the political life of an emperor.As an emperor, especially a king in this chaos, Liu Xie naturally couldn't tolerate someone questioning his prestige.Even if it's just a guess.

But having said that, Liu Xie should have such confidence and qualifications.It can be said that it is a miracle for anyone to be able to get out of such a dangerous situation like a sea of ​​conspiracy, and even get back a lot of real benefits. Therefore, Chen Liu and Zhang Miao rebelled against this This matter must never be made public, nor can it be left in history.

At this moment, Liu Xie suddenly understood why there were so many doubts in history.For example, at this moment, he is duty-bound to be a cover-up and tamperer of history.

"Zhang Mengzhuo, I have to admit that some people's luck is really good. Perhaps, this should be called stupid people have stupid blessings..." Liu Xie sighed, really expressing his feelings.

Because, Liu Xie had to admit that Guo Jia's focus was on Chen Liu and Zhang Miao whom he manipulated.He didn't get involved in the affairs of Kansai, and he didn't get involved with Yuan Shu in Huainan. This kind of ingenious way of playing tricks made Liu Xie think about it carefully at this time, and he felt that there was an artistic beauty.

After thinking through all this, Liu Xie was no longer interested in talking to Zhang Miao.Before leaving, he only said lightly: "Anyway, you are the person who is most familiar with the old supplies. These days, help the Han army to pack everything that can be taken away. After all, the Han Dynasty will soon In the Kansai area, fighting is a very expensive thing... Anyway, you understand."

Until Zhang Miao kowtowed to send Liu Xie off again, he didn't dare to raise his head, until the sound of Liu Xie's footsteps disappeared completely.He just stood up with the help of the guards, and found that he was already sweating through his heavy shirt.

"Okay, now it's your turn, my Fenwu Zhonglang General." Liu Xie sat in the lobby of Chenliu County Guard, leaning on his body and looking at the majestic Lu Bu, the expression on his face could not tell whether he was happy or sad: "Originally, my plan was to let you guard one side. However, at present, it seems that it is better for you to follow me back to the court."

"Your Majesty, is it possible that the military power of the last general was confiscated in this way, and from then on, the last general was trapped in the treacherous and secret court for a lifetime, and finally died of fear?" Lu Bu's emotions seemed a little agitated, and his sinister face was as calm as water. Liu Xie's arrangements were resentful.

"You are the tiger of the world. After all, I don't feel at ease if I put you outside. However, don't think about locking you in a cage from now on. The tiger is here to scare Xiaoxiao, it is to Drive away jackals and wild dogs, I will not let your sharp weapon rust and break. What is needed is that you clamp your tail when you should clamp it. Any anger and resentment can be saved on the battlefield. .”

Liu Xie chuckled lightly, really mocking Lv Bu's fantasies.He is not Liu Bei, and Lu Bu is not Ma Chao. How could it be possible for a generation of brave generals to die in fear?Although Lu Bu would inevitably face some criticism when he returned to the court, Liu Xie thought that he was still too young to be foolish, and he could still hold back.

In fact, he had long wanted to get Lu Bu back.After all, there are too many temptations outside, Lu Bu is also famous enough, and the most important thing is that Lu Bu is not the kind of guy with strong concentration.Unfortunately, for a long time, the time has not been ripe.Fortunately, since Zhang Miao "did not rebel", then Lu Bu was the hero who entered Yanzhou. In this way, some of Lu Bu's bad reputation in the court will always be diluted.

To put it bluntly, even if Liu Xie wants to favor Lu Bu, Lu Bu must have the confidence to let Liu Xie favor him.Now that the dust has settled and Dong Zhuo's era is gone forever, Liu Xie can finally put the sword back into its sheath.As long as Lu Bu didn't wander and suffer in vain all these years, winked a little, and stopped clamoring for his own death like before, then he basically wouldn't die.

"So, will the whole family move to Chang'an at the end?"

"Naturally so, it's not that I can't find you a mansion in Chang'an." Liu Xie was very puzzled why Lu Bu would ask such an idiot question in the end, but seeing Lu Bu thanking him with a strange expression on his face and leaving, he always felt that there was nothing wrong with it. So simple.

However, after all, there are too many things, and Liu Xie cannot tolerate too much thinking about gossip.When there were no one in the hall, he waved his hand, summoned a shadow and said, "Is there any news about Ma Chao in Kansai?"

"Return to Your Majesty, there is no news yet." Li Ru's voice was very dry. As the leader of Jinyiwei, he had long been concerned about the weight of Jinyiwei in Liu Xie's heart.After all, seeing that Lu Bu was able to return to court, it was unreasonable for him not to have a trace of longing.

Hearing this tone of voice, Liu Xie naturally looked back at Li Ru, who was bowing his head and eyebrows, and saw Li Ru's aggrieved expression just like Voldemort's, and the unconcealable light in his eyes.Liu Xie suddenly felt that Nao Ren'er was in pain, and he couldn't help but muttered something very meaningful: "They are all the guys who make me worry..."
