In an instant, the situation rose again.

Liu Bian probably didn't expect Yuan Shu to be so virtuous that he would not be relegated even at all. In a fit of anger, he actually stole King Chenliu directly. He rode his horse for thousands of miles, and now it was too late to chase after him.

It seems that the Yuan family's setback education is really not good.

"I just asked him to go to Xuzhou to be a governor! I haven't sent him to Jiaozhou yet, how dare, how dare..." His hand trembled suddenly, touching the cold porcelain, he couldn't help but took a deep breath.

"What a bastard!" The young emperor propped himself up, and pushed the food table as if venting, the exquisite Dawan grapes on the celadon plate rolled all over the floor, and then there was a "pop", and the expensive celadon shattered into pieces.

The servant lowered his head and prostrated himself on the ground, not daring to speak.

The 14-year-old little emperor held down the front of his shirt and gasped twice. His frail chest under the black red dragon robe heaved rapidly, and he squeezed his cuffs tightly.

The servant raised his head boldly and called out tremblingly: "Your Majesty, please... please take care of the dragon body."

Liu Bian: "..."

He let out a long breath and closed his eyes slightly.

Ever since Dong Zhuo and Li Ru had drunk him with poison, the world seemed to have changed.Even if he was barely rescued by Qin Chu, there was no way he could go back to the past.

Every night he was awakened by the nightmare, opened his eyes covered in cold sweat, the glass of poisoned wine was still lingering in his mind, and seeing Dong Zhuo's ferocious smile reflected under the light, he felt unbearable pain.

Seeing the residual poison circling in his body, even if he took the medicine according to the imperial physician's order every day, he was really awake for no more than five hours.

Liu Bian uncontrollably went to his father's old way, becoming greedy and suspicious, but Liu Hong was greedy for pleasure and he was greedy for power; Liu Hong was afraid of the family, but he was suspicious of everyone.

"Am I going to die?" He felt that his eyes were darkened, and the carved beams and steps of the palace, the lampstands and tables, and the grapes rolling all over the ground all had double images in a trance.

Liu Bian lowered his head and looked at his uncontrollably trembling hands—the nails were still purple. He felt as if he had touched the threshold of death, so he asked again, "Am I going to die?"

The servant still bowed his head on the spot, as if he was really afraid of his imperial power.

Liu Bian gave a wry smile, stretched out his hand to caress his throbbing chest, waited for a while, and only after his hands, feet, limbs and teeth stopped chattering, did he wake up the servant.

"You, go and invite the general for me."

……

When Qin Chu walked into the Shou'an Hall with his sword, the mess in the hall had already been cleaned up.

Liu Bian had returned to calm, sitting on the couch safely, looking really like a harmless puppet emperor, seeing her coming, he even smiled slightly.

——Who says it's not a puppet?

The young emperor glanced across her calm face calmly, lowered his eyes slightly, and said politely: "Fu Qing, please sit down."

"Your Majesty summoned his ministers today, is there something wrong?"

"Well, there is something."

Qin Chu straightened his body slightly.

The draft of "Yuan Shu coercing people" in her belly has already been typed up and down. What kind of ambition, contempt for the court, and solve it early to eliminate future troubles. These are all discussed by the counselors and neatly transcribed by Xun Yu What she wrote down again, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was watertight.

Liu Bian and Yuan Shu didn't play cards according to the rules, so she could only flip the chessboard she had imagined and walk around—this is also impossible, after all, the base of Tobu she plans to develop is still in Xuzhou. She will always feel uneasy if she takes down the newly promoted governor of Xuzhou first.

She raised her eyes, pretending to be listening attentively, and in the blink of an eye, she heard Shaodi's hoarse voice with sickness:

"—Fu Qing, I heard that your sister Fushou is nine years old and has not yet married. Is there such a thing?"

Don't talk about Yuan's family affairs, but...

There was a thump in her heart, a certain possibility flashed through her mind quickly, and her eyelids couldn't help but twitch.

However, now that Liu Bian had asked the question, it was impossible for her to be clueless. No matter how high her status was, Qin Chu couldn't fool the emperor on such a matter, so she could only bow her head and answer:

"Your Majesty is right."

"A few days ago, Yang Shangshu mentioned that I have been on the throne for half a year, and there is still no one in the court. It seems inappropriate, so I thought of your sister. Since she is Fu Qing's sister, she can be trusted."

This is for Fushou to enter the palace.

Sure enough.Qin Chu used his hair to cover it, and slightly closed his eyes where Liu Bian couldn't see.

Fushou, her concubine sister... is indeed just an ordinary girl, no matter how special she is, she has some simple "equality concept", other than that, she is no different from ordinary people.Of course, Liu Bian couldn't be looking at Fushou, the nine-year-old girl herself——

It's a crime to conceive Bi.A woman is born in a family and is protected by the family, so she has to take the fate of the rest of her life as compensation in exchange for her luck in her childhood.

The buyer, Liu Bian, threw out chips again:

"Princess Yang'an is also of the royal blood. She is unpretentious, deep and generous. So I thought, even if you are the uncle of the country, you, Fu Qing, can afford it."

"..."

Qin Chu raised his eyes slightly, and unconsciously frowned.

Li Fushou is the queen.The emperor said this very bluntly.

However, leaving Fushou's personal wishes aside, if the discussion is really only based on "political interests", Liu Bian's words are not unreasonable. The Fu family does have the potential to become the next foreign relative.

Leaving aside the exception of Qin and Chu, judging from another timeline in which she did not exist, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty appointed Fu Shou as the empress. It can be seen that the Langya Fu clan...is indeed the first choice for political marriage.

What's more, there is now a great general Qin Chu in the city of soldiers.

Liu Bian sat on the couch in a good voice, and repeated a sentence very patiently: "What does Fu Qing think?"

King Chenliu was plundered, Yuan Shu fled to the south, his ambitions were beginning to emerge, and Yuan Shao, who pretended to be a fool and refused to return to Beijing, was entrenched in the north. The situation was really ugly.The young emperor wanted to gradually break free from Qin Chu's control, but he also knew that he was powerless to deal with the Yuan family in the north and south. After much deliberation, only "marriage" could solve the problem.

He didn't think Qin Chu would refuse.

"Your Majesty's meaning, I have already understood." Qin Chu's expression remained unchanged, and his tone was flat and respectful, "This is a very important matter, and Chu needs to discuss it with his family before making a decision. Rong Chen will give His Majesty an answer in a few days."

The young emperor smiled: "Okay, you can go, Fu Qing."

……

"What did Miss Fu say?"

"She said, 'Leave my sister to decide'."

Qin Chu closed his eyes and leaned on the proof table.

On the table in front of her was a letter from Fu's family.

Guo Jia unceremoniously mentioned the letter written by Fu Wan himself, shook it, his eyes quickly scanned the handwriting on it, and after reading it for a while, he put it down, and concluded:

"Bu Qihou believes that we should seize the opportunity—since it is the emperor's own choice and it is beneficial to the Fu family, it is natural to do so."

Sun Ce rubbed his forehead: "Where is the eldest princess?"

"The attitude of Princess Yang'an was never mentioned in the letter."

As soon as Liu Hua was mentioned, Qin Chu finally opened his eyes.She has spent less than ten years with Liu Hua, but she understands the difference between her mother and ordinary ladies.she says:

"Mother means acquiescing. Thinking about it, Ah Shou is just a concubine's daughter after all, and has no blood relationship with her. As far as the concubine's status is low, she will not feel empathy."

Sun Ce and Sun Ce didn't quite understand the meaning of "empathy", but they somewhat guessed what she wanted to express, and keenly sensed that she was in a bad mood, so they frowned and asked neatly:

"Where's Ah Chu? What do you think?"

When Guo Jia heard Sun Ce's no matter how big or small he was, he immediately raised his brows, squinted at him indifferently, snorted, shook his goose feather fan, and turned his gaze to Qin Miao, who was reporting to one side:

"Since my lord has asked Fu Ba Niangzi about her attitude, she naturally has other ideas."

"Yes, Feng Xiao is right." Qin Chu said bluntly, "I was thinking about myself."

Guo Jia heard the strings and knew the elegant meaning: "Fu Gongming?"

Having said that, even Sun Ce understood.When he learned that "Achu was forced to leave because Fu Gongming wanted to marry her", he didn't sleep well for several days and nights, dreaming upside down every night, for fear that Achuying would marry early and become a cage bird.

He didn't have the habit of weighing pros and cons, so he answered without hesitation: "Ah Chu doesn't want his nine-year-old sister to marry, it's human nature. Since he doesn't want to, just seriously reject the emperor, right?"

Guo Jia covered her feather fan and almost laughed.The world of generals is either black or white, so simple that it is enviable.

"In the current situation, it is most suitable to marry Fu Ba Niang." He shook his head, "This is not the same as Fu Gongming."

Qin Chu sighed: "Fu Gongming wants to marry my family because of his mother's right to go in and out of the Nangong, so as long as the two families have a relationship, whether or not they get married is secondary; but the emperor—"

Guo Jia: "The Son of Heaven is interested in Langya Fu's family and the power of the lord. But the lord is his courtier, and if he insists on getting closer, the only way to marry him is to lift Fu's family to...'foreign relative' place."

As soon as the "relative" finished speaking, no one spoke in the study.

Dou Wu back then, and He Jin before that, all won the support of the aristocratic family after firmly sitting on the position of foreign relatives, and their glory is boundless.Although Qin Yiren was "deviating from the scriptures" to the extreme, she was the daughter of the Fu family after all. As a family of meritorious officials, Langya Fu's family had been married to the royal family for several generations, so it was reasonable to stand on the position of a foreign relative.

After a long time, Sun Ce let out a thoughtful "Oh" and looked up again, his gaze was still frank.He asked again: "Does your lord have any other ideas?"

Qin Chu lowered his head and paused for a moment, his eyes finally fell on the scrawled letter after he laid down.She smiled wryly at her childhood playmate.

Yes.At present, her parents and even Fushou herself have no objection, and she doesn't even need to call her subordinates to hold a meeting, because even an illiterate general like Lu Bu and Sun Ce can tell at a glance which is the best choice.

The road to the top is bound to be difficult.She waded through the corpses of the Yellow Turban and Xiqiang, and walked all the way in the bloody wind and rain. The white sword in her hand wiped countless people's necks, but she was not invulnerable after all.

In some extremely brief moments, Qin Yiren, who had blazed a new path through the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, still felt the numbness of his five fingers, and hesitated for a moment before making a move—perhaps because of the occasional tingling in his heart.

To move forward on this path, she was born to bear some burdens.

"No, I'm weak."

She shook her head slightly, and finally answered her subordinates:

"The Son of Heaven wants to make Ah Shou his empress. This is a good thing... let's do it like this."

The only lucky thing is that no one, not even Liu Bian himself, knew that his life was in Qin Chu's hands as early as that day after being poisoned and drunk.

Like a weak candle protected by both hands, it can dissipate in all directions as soon as you let go.
