Han Dao world

While talking, the topic turned to the current situation.

Liu Xie asked them, do you think Li Jue will come after them?

"Your Majesty, I don't know if Li Jue will come, but Guo Si will definitely come again." Wang Chang said confidently.

“How come you see?”

"The last time Guo Si was repelled, it wasn't that he was powerless, but that he was caught off guard, so he chose to escape." Wang Chang said confidently: "Guo Si and Zhang Ji have a very good relationship. With Zhang Ji standing in front, Guo Si gathered After the defeat, he must join forces with Zhang Ji. He is a horse thief, and he will never suffer for nothing, and will definitely find ways to get revenge and save face."

Liu Xie was a little surprised.

He had been thinking about whether Li Jue would come, but he didn't focus on Guo Si.

But after listening to Wang Chang's words, he realized that he might have turned the effect into the cause.

The result is the combined effect of many accidental factors. It is normal for the situation to change after this variable appears, and history may not necessarily develop according to the original track.

He has been thinking that Li Jue and Guo Si came to chase after Yang Feng and others attacked Duan Yao. If Yang Feng and others did not attack Duan Yao, would Li Jue and Guo Si come?

Now it seems that no matter whether Li Jue will come or not, and whether Yang Feng and others attack Duan Yan, Guo Si will most likely come.

With Zhang Ji as an ally standing in front of him, Guo Si would not let it go, and would definitely come to retaliate and even regain control of the court.

Zhang Ji supported the imperial court's move to Shan County, and originally had the same intention, and the two had a basis for cooperation.

"Is this your opinion?" Liu Xie felt uneasy, but his face remained calm.

"How can I have such insight." Wang Chang shook his head embarrassingly. "It's what Huangfu Li said. Your Majesty, forgive me for speaking bluntly. When it comes to marching and fighting, the people from Guandong are far inferior to the people from Guanxi, especially the people from Liangzhou. Your Majesty has the ambition to bring peace to the world, so you must use people from Liangzhou."

Liu Xie deeply thought so, and at the same time was filled with emotion.

Even a tiger can understand the truth, why can't Wang Yun understand?

Chapter 9 Help the big man, start with me

Time waits for no one, seize the day and night.

Liu Xie immediately summoned Huangfu Li.

Huangfu Li was of medium build with a dark complexion. Although he was wearing civil official attire, he behaved according to etiquette, without losing the vigor of a general's son.

Huangfu Li expressed his opinion. He believed that Guo Si would definitely come after him. As for whether he would join hands with Li Jue, he dared not say for sure.

But the possibility certainly exists.

Li Jue is a vengeful person.Yang Feng was once Li Jue's former subordinate. He betrayed Li Jue, and Li Jue couldn't just let him go.

I didn't chase before because Guo Si, Yang Ding, Yang Feng and others joined forces to guard the emperor's eastward journey. Their strength is not weak, and Li Jue can't do it alone.Now that Guo Bang has turned his face, and the strength of both sides has undergone major changes, Li Jue will not sit back and watch the great opportunity slip away.

In this way, the possibility of Li Jue and Guo Si joining forces is greatly increased.

"The only one who can dissuade Li Jue is Jia Xu." Huangfu Li finally said.

Liu Xie's cheeks twitched, his mood was very complicated, he couldn't tell whether it was luck or regret.

"Jia Xu probably left Li Jue and is now in Duan Yao's camp."

Huangfu Li was stunned for a moment, his face changed slightly, and after a while he let out a long sigh.

"So, Li Jue will arrive sooner or later." He pinched his fingers again to calculate. "Your Majesty should pay attention to Zhang Ji's movements. Li Jue and Guo Si are in the open, so they can be guarded against. Zhang Ji is in the dark, so it is impossible to guard against. If they appear suddenly, it will greatly damage the morale."

After listening to Huangfu Li's analysis, combined with his own memories of two lifetimes, Liu Xie was deeply convinced.

Zhang Ji has a dark heart in his heart, so he has to guard against it.In case when the two armies were at war, Zhang Ji suddenly appeared on the battlefield, thinking that he was a reinforcement, but was stabbed in the back by him, and a big defeat was almost inevitable.

Liu Xie thought about it. "You go to Shan County."

Huangfu Li was slightly startled, and looked at Liu Xie suspiciously.

"You go to Shan County to pass on my oral order. I will visit Shan County in the near future. Zhang Ji, please be ready to pick him up."

Huangfu Li came to a sudden, and bowed to accept the order.

Liu Xie said again: "I heard that Zhang Ji's son, Zhang Xiuyingwu, is a rare warrior. I want to worship him as Yubayashi Zhonglang. If he can bring thirty or fifty knights to supplement the shortage of Yubayashi, then It's even better."

Huangfu Li was stunned. "Your Majesty, Yulin is close to His Majesty, and Zhang Xiu controls Yulin, isn't it..."

Liu Xie looked at Huangfu Li with a solemn expression. "Do you think Zhang Ji will let Zhang Xiu come?"

Huangfu Li shook his head. "It's not very likely." He paused, and then said, "If His Majesty arrives in Shan County, it's possible."

Liu Xie took it for granted, feeling a little bitter in his heart.

Obviously, even though he was also from Liangzhou, Huangfu Li didn't think Zhang Ji could be used by the court.

He is just another Li Jue and Guo Si.

But he will not give Zhang Ji this chance, he intends to jump out of this encirclement and go directly to Hedong.

Liu agreed to calm himself down, and said: "There are many generals in Liangzhou. Although Sanming is gone, those who come can wait. If Zhang Xiu can come, I will use him. If Zhang Xiu can't come, the court will also let the past go and treat him with courtesy."

Hearing Liu Xie mentioned Sanming, Huangfu Li couldn't help being moved.

Huangfugui, the head of Liangzhou Sanming, was his grandfather.

He pondered for a moment, and said with emotion: "Your Majesty is wise, I understand, and set off immediately to Shan County. Even if Zhang Ji cannot be delayed, I will try to pass the news to Your Majesty in case of accidents."

Liu Xie nodded solemnly to Huangfu Li.

Huangfu Li took a deep look at Liu Xie, saluted deeply, and turned around to leave the account.

-

Liu Xie took off his coat, and Fu Shou stepped forward to catch it, but was almost suffocated by the smell of sweat, and subconsciously covered his mouth and nose.

Liu Xie glanced at her, and hung his coat on the side rail.

Fu Shou's expression changed slightly, and he bent his knees to kneel, but Liu Xie stretched out his hand to support him.

"Get some water."

Fu Shou responded in a low voice, turned around and went out, and arranged for two court ladies to fetch water and cloth.The maid wet the cloth and was about to scrub Liu Xie, but was taken over by Fu Shou.Fu Shou rolled up his sleeves, exposing his slender arms, pursed his lips tightly, and scrubbed Liu Xie.

After barely wiping her back, her arms became limp and her breath became rough.

Liu Xie heard it clearly, reached out to take it, and scrubbed his chest and neck.

Fu Shou timidly stood aside, blushing.

The palace maids also looked pale, standing timidly, not even daring to breathe.

After Liu Xie finished scrubbing, he put the cloth towel beside the basin and waved his hand.

The maids retreated, and Fu Shou stood aside, with an embarrassed expression and tears in his eyes.

"Tired?" Liu Xie said softly.

Fu Shou was slightly startled, then wiped away his tears and bowed slightly. "Your Majesty has worked tirelessly for ZTE, how dare the concubines say that they are tired."

"Take a rest when you're tired, don't force yourself. ZTE's road to rejuvenation is long, and it won't be accomplished overnight."

"The concubine waits for His Majesty to go to bed."

"No, I still want to read for a while."

"What book does your majesty want to read, the concubine will wait for the pen and ink."

Liu Xie turned to look at Fushou, seeing Fushou's stubborn expression, he couldn't help smiling.Fu Shou stood in the empress's fine attire for a whole day today. He was so tired that he almost lost his strength, but he still refused to give in. This kind of perseverance is rare.

"Guess." Liu Xie suddenly became interested and teased Fu Shou.

Fu Shou was at a loss for a while, and after a while, he forced a smile and said: "Your Majesty, if you want to rejuvenate the great man, you should naturally search for it from the scriptures of the sages. As for which scriptures it is, the concubine can't guess."

Liu Xie shook his head.

Can Confucian classics save the country?hanging!Even if we don't put all the responsibility on the Confucian culture like later generations, at least one thing can be confirmed, the Confucian culture can't control chaos.

Reading the "Book of Filial Piety" to retreat from the enemy is just the words of madmen, even Confucian scholars don't believe it.

Fu Shou said again: "You should use soldiers in troubled times. Does your Majesty want to read Sun Wu's Art of War?"

Liu Xie thought for a moment, then shook his head.

The Art of War must be read, but now is not the time to read the Art of War.To defeat the enemy by reading the art of war with one hand is just a plot in the novel, and it is actually impossible.

Instead of studying the Art of War, it is better to visit each battalion and discuss tactical plans with the generals.

Fu Shou was at a loss.These two answers were the best answers she could think of. Besides, she really didn't know what book Liu Xie wanted to read at this moment.

Liu Xie pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "You are from Langya, have you ever heard of Taiji?"

"Of course I've heard of it. Yu Ji is a living god." Fu Shou had an idea and suddenly realized. "Your Majesty wants to read the Taiping Jing?"

"Smart." Liu Xie smiled.

"But the "Taiping Jing" is a book banned by the imperial court. It is not in the palace, nor is it circulated among the people." Fu Shou frowned and thought for a while. "My concubine thinks that instead of reading "Taiping Jing", Your Majesty should read "Lao Tzu". It is said that the moth thief and the rice thief both follow Lao Tzu as their sect, and they are similar but slightly different."

Liu Xie looked at Fushou in surprise. "Moth thief?"

Fu Shou stuck out his tongue. "Usually I'm used to it, but my concubine is slippery for a while, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Liu Xie secretly sighed and didn't say much.It is not Fushou's habit alone to call the yellow scarf a moth thief. It is everywhere in the court, and it is precisely because of this that they look down on Yang Fenggeng and even Li Jue and Guo Si.

If you want to use the Yellow Turban as the foundation of ZTE, this concept must be changed.

"Queen, come and sit down." Liu Xie beckoned, beckoning Fushou to sit closer. "I'm talking to you."

Fushou was flattered, and carefully sat down next to Liu Xie. Although he had just been scrubbed, Liu Xie still smelled of sweat full of hormones.Fu Shou's face flushed, and he lowered his head in embarrassment.

Liu Xie reached out and gently embraced Fushou's shoulder. "Queen, do you think the yellow scarf is really the culprit for the downfall of the big man?"

"Could it be...not?" Fu Shou raised his head in confusion, his eyes blank.

"Think about it, before the Yellow Turban, how many..." Liu Xie's thinking was confused for a moment. After thinking about it, he chose a word that was more suitable for his current status. "...rebellion?"

Fu Shou leaned on Liu Xie's shoulder, biting his green fingertips, and thought about it. "Your Majesty is right. Before the Yellow Turban, rebellion was like wildfire, and it happened from time to time. My concubine often heard my father talk about the Taishan bandits. It seems that they haven't been wiped out for decades."

"Clearing and suppressing is nothing more than raising the tide to stop the boiling, treating the symptoms but not the root cause."

"What is that book?"

"In your opinion, Taishan bandits or yellow scarves, who are they?"

"Aren't they thieves who do evil?"

Liu Xie suddenly regretted it.

Is talking about these things with a little girl like Fushou who was born with a golden spoon in her mouth and doesn't know the sufferings of the world?

This kind of thing, maybe only Tang Ji, who was looted by Xiliang rebels and experienced life and death, can experience it personally.

Seeing that Liu Xie was silent, Fu Shou felt uneasy and sat up straight.

"His Majesty?"

Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief and said with a wry smile: "If they are born to be thieves and bandits who do evil, is there any meaning for the big men to rejuvenate?"

Fu Shou knew he had made a slip of the tongue, pursed his lips, and remained silent.

Liu Xie also felt bored and patted Fushou on the shoulder. "You rest first, I will read some documents."

Fu Shou responded, got up and entered the inner tent.Although Liu Xie didn't see it with his own eyes, he also knew that she didn't lie down to rest, but sat by the couch, quietly waiting for him.

For her, perhaps the biggest wish at this moment is to give birth to a prince and secure the position of queen.

It's just that at this moment, he really doesn't think so.

The building is about to collapse, how can I have the intention to pass on the family line and have a son as a prisoner?

Liu Xie counted the attendants around him in his mind, and decided to ask Zhong Yao about something.

The reason why he was determined to leave Chang'an and return to Luoyang, and he did not hesitate to go on a hunger strike to show his determination, was that Cao Cao sent people to welcome the court back to Luoyang, and Zhong Yao and Ding Chong were the middle contacts.

After the vision, he recuperated behind closed doors, and has not summoned Zhong Yao these days.

He got up and went out of the tent, looked around, and walked towards the adjacent tent.

Zhong Yao, the servant of Huangmen, was sitting in the tent. Hearing footsteps, he looked up and saw that it was the emperor, so he quickly got up and saluted.

"His Majesty."

Liu Xie entered the account and looked down at the letter on the case. "Any news from Yanzhou?"
