The Strongest Overlord of the Three Kingdoms

Cao Jie, who was reading a book, saw Liu Xie coming back, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty is back, why does he look so ugly? Could it be that he is having conflicts with those ministers again?"

Seeing Cao Jie's concern, Liu Xie felt warm and said, "Queen, I'm just a little tired. Looking at the ministers in the court, who really recognizes me as the emperor?"

"I am sorry to my ancestors, and I am sorry to the common people."

Cao Jie comforted, "Your Majesty, don't say that. Even if you want to blame you, you can't blame me. I can only say that the world has changed."

"Yes, the morals of the world have changed." Liu Xiechang sighed, and suddenly said in a surprising way; "Queen, tell me, if I give up the throne to someone else, will I be able to live better."

"Abdicate the throne? Your Majesty must not do this!" Cao Jie was shocked.

Chapter 1000 two hundred and twenty; Xu Sheng, fight to the death!

Liu Xie smiled slightly, put his arms around Cao Jie's slender waist and said, "Queen, you have misunderstood what I mean. How could I be willing to give up the foundation of my ancestors to outsiders? I want to give up the throne to the King of Chu."

Hearing this, Cao Jie breathed a sigh of relief. At first, he thought that Liu Xie was hopeless, and thought of giving the Zen seat to his father Cao Cao.

If that's the case, let's not say that Liu Xie will bear the infamy of a faint king, even his father may not be able to escape the infamy of a traitor who steals the country.

Fortunately, Liu Xie wanted to cede the throne to a member of the same clan, King Liu Ke of Chu, so it would not be considered arrogance.

Cao Jie then said, "If Your Majesty really doesn't want to be the emperor anymore, it's not a bad idea to give up the throne to the King of Chu. After all, the King of Chu is now powerful in the world and has already acquired the land of Kyushu, so he can also bear this responsibility." .”

"The empress understands my painstaking efforts. I am very happy. However, if I want to give the Zen throne to the King of Chu, I must send the Zen throne edict to him, but I can't leave the palace at all."

Liu Xie said bitterly.

Cao Jie rolled his eyes and said with a smile, "Your Majesty can't go out, but my concubines can. Your Majesty can write an edict and send it to the King of Chu."

Liu Xie hesitated, "But queen, if the king of Wei finds out about this, I'm afraid..." He didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning behind his words was very clear.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the King of Wei is the father of the concubine, no matter what, I believe the King of Wei will not do anything to the concubine." Cao Jie said indifferently.

In the end, Liu Xie nodded. Where did he find a copy of the Ming Huang Silk Book, and Yuxi wrote a Zen Edict and handed it to Cao Jie.

Putting the edict of the Zen position in his arms, Cao Jie and Liu Xieyi bid farewell and walked quietly towards the outside of the palace gate.

Now Cao Cao has not returned to Luoyang, so the guards of the palace are much more lax than before. Soon, Cao Jie came to the last palace gate.

And guarding in front of the palace gate is Sima Yi's apprentice, Weiwei commander Deng Ai.When he saw Cao Jie approaching the palace gate, his expression changed slightly, he walked forward, bowed and said, "My humble minister Deng Ai, see the empress."

"Well, Commander Deng, please come up." Cao Jie reached out to support him, without stopping, and went directly to the outside of the palace gate.

Deng Ai hurriedly stopped her and said, "Your Majesty, Luoyang is in troubled times, please take good care of your body and don't go out of the palace at will."

Cao Jie's expression turned cold, and he shouted, "Bold Deng Ai, I am the empress of today, and even the daughter of the king of Wei. You dare to stop me!"

When saying this, Cao Jie deliberately emphasized the words "Daughter of the King of Wei", because she knew that Deng Ai's status as a queen alone could not deter Deng Ai, and it would only work if she brought out her father, Cao Cao.

Sure enough, Deng Ai struggled a little when he heard Queen Wei, but in the end he didn't choose to stop him and let Cao Jie leave.However, he still sent someone to notify Wei Wei Huaxin.

Fortunately, Cao Jie was very smart. She expected that Deng Ai would send someone to notify Hua Xin, so she left the palace, found a carriage, quickly fled Luoyang, and went straight to Xinzheng where Liu Ke, the King of Chu, was.

But when Hua Xin got the notification from Deng Ai, it was already too late, Cao Jie had long since disappeared, and they could only sigh in despair.

……

Chaisang, after the three-day deadline Sun Ce gave Xu Sheng, Zhou Yu came to the city again and asked loudly, "General Xu Sheng, I don't know what you're thinking. Today is the deadline. If you still don't surrender, why don't you surrender?" Then don't blame my lord for being ruthless!"

Xu Sheng climbed to the top of the wall, looked at Zhou Yu, and said with a sneer, "Zhou Gongjin, please go back! Xu Sheng would rather die than serve the second lord. If the King of Xiangyang wants to flood the city, then just come! Xu Sheng is next!"

Zhou Yu frowned slightly, and thought to himself, "It's strange, Xu Sheng should be a man of benevolence and righteousness. Why is he willing to bear the flood of the river and cause the people to be displaced, and refuse to open the city and surrender? Well, this person is loyal, but unfortunately, you and I cannot share Serve the master."

Immediately Zhou Yu sighed; "General Xu Sheng, why are you bothering? Since you are not willing to settle peacefully, then be prepared to die."

"Xu Sheng has already put life and death aside, Zhou Gongjin, don't talk about it anymore. The city is here, I am here. The city is dead, and I am dead!" Xu Sheng said.

"Okay! Then we will see the outcome on the battlefield!"

After finishing speaking, Zhou Yu turned back to the Jingzhou army camp. Seeing Zhou Yu's return, Sun Ce asked, "Gong Jin, how is Xu Sheng willing to surrender?"

Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "Yu is incompetent and failed to persuade Xu Sheng to surrender."

"Don't blame Gong Jin, it's all because Xu Shengming is stubborn and ignorant. Since he refuses to surrender, there is no need to be polite." Murderous intent emerged in Sun Ce's eyes, and he summoned his generals.

"Huang Gai obeys the order, I order you to go to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River immediately, burst the embankment and release the water, and submerge Chaisang!"

"The last general takes orders!" Huang Gai embraced his orders and left.

Sun Ce ordered again: "Cheng Pu, Zhou Tai listens."

"The end is here."

"Order you two to lead [-] soldiers each, and when Chaisang is submerged, immediately enter by boat, and take Chaisang City!"

"The last general takes orders!"

Zhou Yu said at this time; "Your Majesty, Yu has a plan to capture Chaisang as soon as possible."

"Oh? Please tell me, Gongjin."

"Your Majesty, you can ask someone to choose a boat, pour kerosene and other fire-igniting objects on it, and drive the boat poured with fire oil after Chaisang is submerged in water. The two worlds of water and fire will make the enemy fearful." , have no intention of fighting again."

Sun Ce laughed and said, "Gong Jin is good at planning, Sun Yi, quickly follow Gong Jin's plan."

"promise."

An hour later, after Sun Ce got everything ready, he ordered Huang Gai upstream to burst the embankment and release the water.
