After everyone dispersed, the emperor took the two of them to the apse, and the purpose of leaving Ling Hao was naturally Liu Bei's business. As for Sun Ce, needless to say, it should be to persuade him to return to Han.

"Before I sent Ling Yushi to persuade Liu Bei to join the court, so the time was staggered. It happened that Ling Yushi just came back yesterday. I heard the rumors. It seems that Wuhou and Ling Yushi have a good relationship?" Look at Sun Ce. "Probably." For some reason, Sun Ce frowned at Ling Hao, and then replied. "Before, under Liu Bei, I often went to Jiangdong as an envoy, so..." Ling Hao nodded, "I don't know if the emperor will leave the minister today, but what needs to be explained?".Han Xiandi smiled, "Actually, there is nothing to explain. After all, you should know Liu Bei better than I do. I just feel that Ling Yushi has worked hard. I just came back yesterday, and now I am leaving again.", Ling Haowen Yan immediately stood up and saluted, "The emperor said so, and the minister was terrified. All this is for the Han family, so why not talk about hard work.".

Since Ling Hao entered the court, his attitude has always been neither humble nor overbearing. In addition, his attitude is completely in line with the royal family. Now he has succeeded in getting the tricky Liu Bei to agree to belong to him. Hao's promotion should be much easier.Emperor Han Xian nodded with satisfaction, "By the way, there is one more thing. I admire Zhuge Liang under Liu Bei's command very much. There is a lack of people like you in the court now. If Zhuge Liang is willing to serve me directly, he will be able to eradicate the heresy in the court. After I become a member, I will make good use of this person." Ling Hao paused when he heard the words, this...according to Zhuge Liang's temperament, this is not a question of willingness, but a question of whether to invite him, right?Besides... I don't know if Zhuge Liang is interested in getting involved in the affairs of the court. If Zhuge Liang can really do this, it must be excellent, but unfortunately, the possibility is too small. "Zhuge Liang is called Crouching Dragon. If he is willing to become an official in the court, it is naturally the best. The emperor understands what the emperor means. I will express this intention to Zhuge Liang during this trip."

"Then go down and prepare first, I'm waiting for your good news." Ling Hao stepped back in response.Only Sun Ce was left in the hall, and Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty looked at Sun Ce again. "Presumably Marquis Wu must also know what happened in the court recently. To be honest, I don't want to be the subjugated emperor of the Han Dynasty, and I don't want my ancestors' foundation to be destroyed in my hands. Therefore, I hope Marquis Wu can judge the situation. After all After Liu Bei returned to the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao basically did not pose much threat to the Han Dynasty. In the end, the Jiangdong forces were left, and I only wanted to unify the Han Dynasty, and did not think of using military force to exert pressure."Sun Ce's eyes were complicated. Indeed, the situation has changed now. Since the man Lu Bu "resurrected from the dead", Cao Cao, who originally occupied the sovereignty of the court, had to divide his powers, and the emperor first dared to treat Cao Cao because of Lu Bu's prestige. Restrict power; after that, the Xiliang forces to which Ma Chao belongs belonged to the imperial court, and now it is never expected that Liu Bei, who has already dominated one side and has a large number of soldiers and horses, would agree to join the court... Liu Bei's entry into the court, his side's forces outside will undoubtedly lead to fire .

It has to be said that Ling Hao's strategy really took advantage of the right time and place.Liu Bei's return to the Han seems to be voluntary, but in fact it is a last resort. If Liu Bei is unwilling, then it will naturally be tantamount to betraying the Han Dynasty. At that time, the emperor will naturally use Cao Cao's hands to destroy Liu Bei; After the dynasty, it is natural to serve the emperor, and the emperor can use Liu Bei to eliminate Cao Cao. Therefore, no matter how you say it, it is the emperor's benefit, and he has no right to choose Soochow.However, Cao Cao still wanted to fight the trapped beasts. He sought him many times today, intending to persuade him to rebel. Now it seems that Cao Cao's chances of winning are not great. Coupled with the aspirations of the people, whether it is Liu Bei or the emperor, they are all members of the royal family .

"I am not a dull person, the emperor understands what the emperor means...Since Liu Bei has decided to join the court to work together, I will naturally make plans for the Jiangdong matter. But, forgive me, Jiangdong is the power preserved by my father's blood, so-" , the words should not be too direct, but I believe that with the mind of Han Xiandi, he can guess everything. "Don't worry about this. The unification of the Han Dynasty requires the joint efforts of many parties. I will not treat you badly, and I will not let Jiangdong lose. As long as you are willing to belong, Jiangdong is still under your jurisdiction. Not only that, just like Liu Bei, as long as you To help me eliminate the hidden dangers in my heart, it is inevitable to grant the king the land. Furthermore, I am sincere and do not want to hurt the harmony of several families. After all, only in this way can the royal family last long. I will give you ten days to think about it. If you think about it, You can tell me at any time, I believe you are not someone like Cao Cao."

In this case, why give him ten days?Before it was uncertain whether Liu Bei would belong, Emperor Xian of Han's intention of persuading him to belong was not so obvious. Now that the news was confirmed, he said it directly in person.Sun Ce just saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty, I will think about it carefully."Coming out of the palace, Sun Ce frowned, raised his foot and wanted to go left, paused for a few seconds, then turned around again, and went straight out of the palace gate.

He seemed to be aimlessly on the street, but in fact he stopped at the end, and in front of him was Ling Hao's mansion. He didn't believe that Ling Hao had forgotten everything that happened before, and he didn't believe that Ling Hao had no affection for him.They have clearly confirmed their feelings for each other before and even had a relationship. No matter what, a person's eyes can't lie, especially someone like Ling Hao who is not good at lying.However, as long as I think of Ma Chao and Lu Bu who appeared for no reason, I can't help but get angry.If Ling Hao really dared to sever ties with him because of that Ma Chao, then I'm sorry, even if Ling Hao hated himself all his life, he would kill that man with his own hands.

Throwing the jade talisman on his body to the guard guarding the gate casually, Sun Ce entered the mansion without saying a word with a gloomy expression. "Hey—my, my lord—" The guard didn't respond for a while, why did this person rush in casually, when he saw the jade talisman in his hand, he was shocked, like holding a hot potato, "Wu Hou , Master Ling is not in the mansion!"In other words, it is not an easy job to be the guard of the Ling Mansion. After all, the people who go in and out all day are not ordinary people. Just a general of Hussars and Marquis Lu Wen are enough to make them worry. Why is this big man from Jiangdong? He also came to look for his lord... If he remembered correctly, the imperial historian was only a sixth-rank official, right?

Walking through the corridor, he grabbed a servant, "Where's Ling Hao?" The servant who was holding the tea tray didn't know where Ling Hao was. "Your Excellency is out." Sun Ce frowned, "Where did you go?", "This... the little one doesn't know. If the adults are worried, the little ones can ask the young lady."Miss?Sun Ce's face darkened, why is there still a woman in Ling Hao's house?As if feeling that the person in front of him was in a bad mood, the servant shivered.

Han Lingben was leisurely watering the flowers in her room, but she didn't pay much attention when she heard that someone was looking for Ling Hao. "Just tell him that the second brother is not here.", "Miss Hui, the younger one said it, but the man said he wants to see you...", what?Han Ling froze for a moment, what did she do when she saw her? "Do you know who it is?" The servant shook his head, "I don't know, but that person seems to have a bad temper.".Han Ling responded and withdrew.Judging by the reaction, it wasn't Lu Bu or Ma Chao, and it was even more unlikely that it was Cao Cao and the others. People who were always familiar to him could basically be ruled out. Then who was this person, and he asked to see her by name.Put the sprinkling pot aside, picked up the handkerchief on the other side and wiped his hands, "Didn't you come to see the second brother? Why do you want to see me again? Isn't the enemy looking for you..." Han Ling immediately called Sneezing, this feeling is even worse.

Walking all the way to the lobby, I finally saw the person mentioned by the servants.A man dressed in dark Chinese clothes was sitting on a chair, his brows were tightly furrowed, his eyes were deep and sharp, and he seemed to be impatient. Coupled with the aura of keeping strangers away from his body, this... doesn't look like it. Like a messy lord.Han Ling coughed, "Ah, my lord, who are you?" As soon as he spoke, he saw the man's gaze shifted to himself, as if being scrutinized by a beast, Han Ling's smile was almost unbearable. "This lord came to look for my second brother. Unfortunately, the second brother went out as soon as he came back." This sentence was originally a sentence to break the tense atmosphere, but after hearing this sentence, the other party's expression changed slightly, and then went straight. Staring at himself, "Are you Ling Hao's sister?", "Exactly.".Sun Ce still didn't believe it, "Sister?", "Um, yes..." From this point of view, it seems that she does look a bit like Ling Hao.

It seemed that the surrounding air was flowing again, and the man did not seem so scary anymore. Han Ling looked at the man in front of him again. Judging by his aura and clothes, he should not be an ordinary person. After careful searching in his brain several times, it was indeed I don't know who this person is. If she has seen such a man, she will definitely have a deep impression on him. "Where did he go?" The man's voice sounded unique, and Han Ling froze for a moment, "It should be to the mansion of General Hussars."The originally good atmosphere suddenly became gloomy and cold again, the man's face was gloomy, and then he turned around and left the lobby without looking at Han Ling.
