Fuji [Four Beauties]

Hearing this question, Liu Xie seemed to think of something, and fear appeared in his eyes.He looked at Song Ci, his voice was a little trembling, and he asked cautiously: "Sister, are you saying that these people will be the next Dong Zhuo?"

Seeing his appearance, Song Ci couldn't bear to scare him any more, so he said, "No, not all warlords are like Dong Zhuo, he belongs to the crazy kind."

Only then did Liu Xie relax a bit: "I haven't forgotten what happened to my brother for a day, and I don't want to repeat his mistakes."

"That's why you are hesitating and don't know which one to go to?"

"Yes."

"These people who are here now are not the next Dong Zhuo, but they are not much better than him."

"Sister, do you mean not to choose anyone?"

"It's impossible. You don't want to experience the experience of Li Jue and Guo Si fighting in scuffle and snatching you and running around again, right?"

Thinking of the terrible experience before, Liu Xie couldn't help shivering: "Of course not."

"With the current situation, you can probably only be the emperor of Zhou and choose a stronger warlord. If he aspires to be Duke Huan of Qi, then you can still keep the Han Dynasty in name. Maybe in the future, you will have the opportunity to gradually Take back the power and revitalize the great man. If he wants to be King Wen of Zhou..." Song Ci stopped talking at this point.

At that time, King Wen of Zhou divided the world into two thirds, and he was still assisting Cheng Tang in the world, but his son King Wu of Zhou took the world of Shang.Song Ci's words are already very clear.

Liu Xie was silent for a while, and then said with some difficulty: "Sister, no one has ever dared to tell me this."

"They don't dare, but it doesn't mean they don't understand the truth."

"Even I understand, how can they not understand?"

"This decision can only be made by yourself. After all, the world of the Han family still belongs to you in name."

"I can't do it, sister. If I become the king of subjugation and go underground, how can I have the face to meet my ancestors?"

Song Ci shook his head and said: "You don't want to lose the Han family, but you have no power to bring it back to heaven. You want to die, but you don't want to implicate the ministers and people who follow you. Everything is difficult. These things are not something I can solve All I know is that if you stay in Chang'an and Luoyang, all the people who follow you along the way will starve to death. If you die, you will have nothing, let alone your ancestral foundation."

Liu Xie remained silent.

Song Ci said: "After all, I'm actually just an outsider, and I can't make any decisions for you. To be honest, it doesn't matter to me who becomes the emperor. I just want the world to be peaceful sooner. As long as there is Many people don't care who grabs whose territory. No matter which family wins the world, they are still ordinary people, and there is no difference. Of course, these words seem outrageous to others, but I really do Think so."

"It's all my fault for doing so badly."

"How can this be your fault? The world has become what it is now. It's not a matter of one person or two people in a day or two. You're just unlucky."

Liu Xie said dejectedly: "Is there really no other way?"

"If you still decide to stick to Luoyang, that's your choice. I hope you don't regret it in the future. If you decide, you still accept a certain warlord. I hope you will think about what I just said. At least have a mentality Be prepared, there is room for redemption in whatever happens in the future.”

"Don't worry, sister, I know."

"Okay, now I will answer your first question. If you really want to choose one, I would recommend Cao Cao. Although he does not seem to be strong now, but he has the greatest possibility of development in the future. Yuan Shao must not be chosen. , he had thought of setting up a new king earlier, and his future is uncertain. The Liu clan must not be chosen, they are also the blood of the Liu family. You were supported by Dong Zhuo. If you are not sure, they will follow Dong Zhuo and take you Kill yourself and make yourself emperor. Gongsun Zan and Tao Qian are not people who can last long, let alone others."

Hearing Cao Cao's name, Liu Xie was a little confused: "Cao Cao? Is it after Cao Teng?"

"It's him. He left Dong Zhuo's subordinates very early and summoned the local army to attack Dong Zhuo. In the Guandong Zhu army, only he, Sun Jian and others are sincerely fighting Dong Zhuo, but unfortunately their strength is limited. Now he Defeated the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army and developed in Yanzhou."

"I remembered, he seemed to have sent someone to Chang'an to make a confession before?"

Song Ci nodded: "Yes."

Liu Xie tentatively asked: "Looking at this person's behavior, he seems to be loyal to the imperial court?"

"Judging from what he's doing now, it's true. But what will happen in the future, what's going on in his heart, I don't know. Think about Wang Mang, didn't he look like a loyal minister back then?"

Hearing this, Liu Xiegang's boosted spirit sank again.

"That's why I told you, think clearly. The so-called knowing people, knowing the face but not knowing the heart, no one can tell clearly about the future. If you still have unrealistic fantasies about them, the days to come will probably be very painful. "

Liu Xie asked a little unwillingly: "As sister said, don't I have no real loyal ministers in my big man?"

Song Ci said: "Of course there are. Among the ministers who still follow you today, there are naturally loyal ones. It's just that it is easy to be loyal for a while, but it is difficult to be loyal for a lifetime. Who can say that Wang Mang was not a loyal minister?"

"I will remember what sister said. Thank you for being willing to tell me the truth. I will think about what you said."

After that conversation, Liu Xie tossed and turned day and night.There are countless voices in his head, what Song Ci said, and what the ministers said, all churning inside.Not only that, the wailing and howling of the people, Dong Zhuo's domineering appearance, the tragic scene of the officials picking weeds in the mountains to feed themselves, and the swords of the Xiliang army also appeared repeatedly in his mind.

After several days of hesitation, Liu Xie finally made a decision to accept Cao Cao.As soon as he made this decision, the ministers who followed him all the way through mountains and rivers and traveled thousands of miles suddenly became enthusiastic, and even the common people were extremely happy.While making the decision to accept Cao Cao, Liu Xie also put forward conditions.It is also possible to ask him to go to the place under Cao Cao's jurisdiction, but he must bring the ministers and people who followed him along the way.

Hearing his condition, Cao Cao immediately agreed.For him, the emperor is the best signboard, the ministers are the reserve talent pool, and the common people are the foundation for his development and growth.Wholeheartedly accept it and achieve multiple results in one fell swoop, why not do it?

Cao Cao was happy, but the other warlords would quit.They don't eat dry food, how could they watch the emperor being snatched away by Cao Cao?

It's a pity that Cao Cao had already prepared.His territory was already very close to Luoyang, and he had already won over the warlords near Luoyang.Now near Luoyang, only he is the strongest.In this era when strength is the grass head king, who can challenge him?

So, it didn't take long for Cao Cao to take Liu Xie to Xu County.Of course, the ministers and common people also went with them.

After arriving in Xu County, Cao Cao rummaged through boxes and cabinets and took out his own family property.All the imperial gifts bestowed by the first emperor to the Cao family were given to Liu Xie for the daily imperial use of the emperor.Not only that, Cao Cao also gave Liu Xie a practice palace to buy all kinds of things, and he restored all kinds of etiquette regulations that had long been ineffective.

For civil and military officials, Cao Cao also gave various corresponding treatment.Never appeared again, the dignified Sangong Jiuqing, but also need to go out to pick wild vegetables to satisfy the ridiculous scene.

For a time, everyone in the court was grateful to Cao Cao.Everyone praised Cao Cao as a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.Liu Xie also took advantage of the opportunity to worship Cao Cao as the general of Zhendong, the shepherd of Yanzhou, and the title of Marquis of Feiting.

So far, Cao Cao, the self-proclaimed Yanzhou Shepherd, has finally been certified by the court and has become well-deserved.

With the sword of the Son of Heaven, Cao Cao crusade against the Hanzhong rebels even more justifiably, and defeated the rebel army of Dade Xiangu without their helmets and armor.Even Dade Fairy herself was captured.When Aunt Dade was arrested in Xu County, Liu Xie was also taken aback.The appearance of this Dade fairy is indeed quite similar to that of the late emperor.

After being arrested, the Dade Fairy still didn't know the imminent disaster, and she spoke plausibly, pledging herself with the blood of the royal family.Seeing her confident and overconfident appearance, even Liu Xie couldn't help being puzzled.Just looking at her appearance, if it is said that she has nothing to do with the late emperor, few people will believe it.So Liu Xie asked Cao Cao to send someone to investigate.

I checked and checked, but there was no result.Liu Xie's father, that is, Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty.Although he loved women very much during his lifetime, he left few heirs.Except for Liu Bian, the young emperor of the Han Dynasty who was poisoned by Dong Zhuo, Liu Xie only had one sister, Princess Wannian, who was the sister who Liu Xie misunderstood Song Ci.

Princess Wannian's life experience is also quite strange, no one in the palace knows who her biological mother is, and very few people have seen her.When Liu Xie was sensible, her mother Wang Meiren had already passed away, and she was raised under the knee of Empress Dowager Dong.Like him, Princess Wannian was handed over by Liu Hong to Queen Mother Dong to be raised.Therefore, the two have been together since childhood.

Later, Liu Hongyan drove, and there was chaos in the palace.Empress He came to power, Empress Dowager Dong was sent back to her fief, and Princess Wannian also left the palace with her.After that, Empress Dowager Dong was poisoned to death by Empress He, and Princess Wannian was also missing.

Cao Cao sent people to investigate, but they did not find out the life experience of Dade Fairy, but they found out the old story of Princess Wannian.At the same time, we also found out many old court affairs involving Princess Wannian.These things were originally irrelevant to Cao Cao.However, some of them are related to the vigorous treasures that have been passed on everywhere, and the unknown jade seal of the country.

Cao Cao had to ask about these two things.

According to legend, these two things are related to Empress Dowager Dong.The Chuanguo Yuxi was originally in charge of the Empress Dowager Dong. After Empress He came to power, she snatched the Yuxi.During Dong Zhuo's rebellion, Yuxi disappeared mysteriously.It is said that the last person to keep the jade seal was a confidant of Empress He, who was originally an old man in Empress Dowager Dong's palace.There is also the treasure of the first emperor Liu Xuan. This news also came from the palace of Empress Dowager Dong.I don't know how it was listened to by Dade Fairy, and she made a fuss about it.

Yuxi disappeared, there was no news of the treasure, and the Wannian Princess was also missing.Considering the age, if the Wannian princess is still alive, it will be the year of breaking the melon now.The most important thing is that at her age, she was already sensible at that time.With her status, if she was still alive, she might know about Yuxi and Treasure.

This matter is of great importance, and of course it cannot be ignored.Cao Cao sent someone to investigate about Princess Wannian.After checking and checking, Song Ci was found.

In fact, the matter was originally not related to Song Ci.The strange thing is that Liu Xie once called her sister in public.This event was witnessed by many and privately discussed by many.It's no wonder that others will find out about her.

Cao Cao's people found the old maid who had served Empress Dowager Dong for many years.I have repeatedly checked the clues about Princess Wannian.Song Ci's age matched that of Princess Wannian, and their features were quite similar.More importantly, there was Liu Xie's "Sister".This became the strongest ironclad evidence. Even if Song Ci had a hundred mouths, he might not be able to tell clearly.

So Song Ci, who was treating Xun You in Cao Cao's barracks, was invited to Cao Cao's place.

Song Ci was dumbfounded when he was suddenly called to Cao Cao's place.She had just entered the big tent when an elderly woman walked up to Song Ci tremblingly.There was another smile and another tear on her wrinkled face.

Walking in front of Song Ci, the old woman immediately knelt down in front of Song Ci, and said in a trembling voice: "Princess, I can see that the princess is safe and sound today, and I finally lived up to the queen mother's entrustment, and I will die in peace.
