Can I get to the other side?

The first year of Jian'an, October autumn.

Jizhou, outside Yecheng.

A ragged, pale and thin boy was holding a sharpened bamboo stick and walking barefoot in the river, staring at the plump green crucian carp in the water, his eyes almost shining.

He carefully adjusted his posture and aimed the tip of the bamboo stick at the green crucian carp, ready to kill it with one blow.

However, at this moment, a stone suddenly flew over.

"Plop!"

As the stone fell into the water, the green crucian carp in the water was frightened and swam away in an instant, disappearing in a flash.

"Fish! My fish!"

Seeing the prey in his hand running away, the boy was so anxious that he jumped up and tried to catch it, but he was unstable and fell directly into the water.

When he finally struggled to climb ashore, he looked up and saw several five or six-year-old children laughing at him.

It was obvious that they had thrown the stone just now.

"Run!"

Feeling the murderous gaze of the boy, several little brats immediately scattered and ran away.

Only the boy who was soaked like a drowned chicken was left on the shore.

"The children in the south village bullied me because I was weak and powerless, and they threw stones at me! These damn brats!"

Looking at the backs of the brats running away, the boy gnashed his teeth in hatred, but he could do nothing. After a long sigh, he lay on his back on the grass.

It's not that he didn't want to chase them, but he really didn't have the strength.

So far, except for a few fruits, he hasn't eaten for five days.

The dinner that he had hoped to have was also ruined because of the trouble made by those brats just now.

"Am I, Liu Xie, really going to starve to death in the late Eastern Han Dynasty?"

"God, you are so fucking pitiful!"

Feeling the waves of hunger in his stomach, Liu Xie was almost crying without tears.

Yes, his name is Liu Xie.

But he has nothing to do with the Emperor Xian of Han in history.

He was just an ordinary college student majoring in history. When he woke up, he traveled to the Three Kingdoms.

At first, he was very excited. After all, he loved history, especially the history of the Three Kingdoms. It was his ultimate dream to be able to visit this era and meet those brilliant Chinese literary stars in history!

And as a traveler, with his knowledge reserve of modern people in the 21st century and his understanding of the direction of history, it would not be too easy for him to get along well.

It is not impossible to even conquer all kinds of talents, form forces and achieve hegemony like online novels.

But he soon found out that he was wrong.

And he was very wrong.

Although he traveled through time, he did not get any awesome golden fingers, nor did he have a cheating system, nor did he have any extraordinary identity.

He was just a refugee who was common in this chaotic world.

What great plans, what changes in history, what royal hegemony, everything is bullshit!

He couldn't even eat a full meal!

If you want to turn over a new leaf and show your talents, you have to get in touch with those famous historical figures, right?

But in fact, in ancient times, where people’s origins were important, he, a refugee, didn’t even have the qualifications to get close to those big figures, let alone show his talents.

And the most important thing is that there were no subways, cars, or airplanes in ancient times. If he dared to run around in this chaotic world, there would be only two outcomes.

Either he would be captured and sent to the army as a soldier to serve as military rations;

Or he would die under the swords of bandits or soldiers.

So it has been five days since he traveled through time, and he didn’t dare to leave the scope of Yecheng at all. At least this place is safe.

Of course, he couldn’t enter the city.

Because he was a refugee.

“I’m afraid I’m going to be the first time traveler in history to starve to death.”

Liu Xie looked at the sky with his eyes blank. Is he going to follow the footsteps of Duke Huan of Qi?

The sky was gray, as gray as his life.

But... how could he be willing to die in such a cowardly way?

"Hu——"

Liu Xie took a deep breath, sat up with all his strength, picked up the bamboo spear beside him, walked towards the stream with a frivolous step, and his eyes regained firmness.

He was never the kind of person who would give up easily. Even if there was a glimmer of hope, he would try his best to catch it.

If he couldn't catch it, those kids just now would not blame him!

...

And not far downstream.

A middle-aged scholar in green clothes was sitting on the bluestone on the shore fishing.

But at this moment, his mood was not fishing.

But on a secret report in his hand.

"Luoyang was still captured."

After reading the secret report in his hand carefully, the middle-aged scholar sighed, tore it into pieces, squeezed it into a ball, and threw it into the river.

This was a secret report that had just been delivered in the morning.

Cao Mengde captured Luoyang and welcomed the emperor to move the capital to Xu County.

On the way to move the capital, Han Xian wanted to take the opportunity to rob the emperor's carriage, but was defeated by Cao Cao and has now fled eastward.

However, the middle-aged scholar did not care about Han Xian's whereabouts. He was just a fool, and whether he lived or died would not affect the overall situation.

What he really cared about was the emperor.

"Cao Mengde took Luoyang, and the emperor fell into his hands. From now on, no one can hinder him in the righteousness."

"If he uses the emperor to command the princes, how should the princes deal with it?"

"My lord, you are really confused this time."

The face of the middle-aged scholar was full of regret and helplessness.

His name is Ju Su, and he is a counselor under Yuan Shao, the current lord of Jizhou.

Long before Cao Cao captured Luoyang, he had persuaded Yuan Shao to welcome the emperor to Jizhou. You know, Jizhou is very close to Luoyang. If Yuan Shao is willing to take action, Cao Cao will have no chance to welcome the emperor away.

But Yuan Shao listened to the opinion of the military general Chunyu Qiong, thinking that welcoming the emperor to Jizhou would affect his power, so he kept his troops in place.

This gave Cao Cao an opportunity.

Luoyang was quickly captured, and the emperor fell into Cao Cao's hands and was welcomed to Xu County.

He could already foresee the future situation.

Cao Cao would be like Dong Zhuo, holding the emperor hostage and commanding the princes.

"Forget it, forget it, it's time and fate."

Ju Su shook his head. Although he had foresight, he had no choice if his lord did not adopt it. He could only say that everything was predetermined.

Putting away the fishing rod, Ju Su picked up the fish basket and prepared to leave.

But at this time he heard bursts of water coming from not far away.

Ju Shou looked up and saw a ragged young man struggling to fish in the water not far away.

But his fishing skills were really poor. After a long time, he didn't catch any fish and fell several times in the water.

However, this young man was very determined and refused to give up.

"Refugee?"

Ju Shou judged the young man's identity by just looking at his clothes.

There were many such refugees outside the city, and it was not uncommon.

But for some reason, he always felt that this young man looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

Just when Ju Shou was hesitating whether to go up and take a closer look, the young man who was fishing raised his head and cast his eyes over.

The two looked at each other.

Ju Shou was stunned at first, then his eyes widened and he was stunned on the spot.

"Your Majesty?!"
