Thinking about it again, how did Liu Xie run out of the mansion?Taking off people's clothes stained with filth, and pretending to run out, even that can bear it, it's just a dog hole...

Cheng Yu immediately ordered to expand the search area to outside the city, and according to the physical strength of the little emperor, it must still be within twenty miles!

Cheng Yu's guess is not wrong according to common sense. The little emperor has been growing up in an environment isolated from the outside world, and the people should have no idea what it is like.

Just like Cao Zhang, he doesn't even know what copper coins are.

Unfortunately, Liu Xie exchanged strings of pearls for copper coins, and then bought a donkey with the copper coins. When Cheng Yu saw the dog hole, he had already run more than 30 miles away from Xuzhou.

I originally wanted to buy horses, but as a result, horses have no right to be bought and sold by the common people. They are government-controlled items, so they had to ride donkeys.

All the way "get it", ran to the afternoon, found a ferry near Surabaya, took the donkey as the boat fare, and took the boat to the south.

Xuzhou is a big city in the world, and Huaiyin in the southeast of Xuzhou is also a big city. The two cities are connected by Surabaya, and there are endless business trips.

Merchant ships coming and going on Surabaya saved Liu Xie's efforts.

Two days later, I arrived in Huaiyin, Guangling County.

Huaiyin is in the lower reaches of Huai River, and the upper reaches of Huaiyin is Shouchun.

Liu Xie still intends to take the boat.

Cao Cao has a lot of horses and cavalry, but the navy is currently zero.

Yuan Shu's navy was wrapped up by Sun Ce.

By water, it is fast and safe.

The idea is good, but the boat cannot be found.

Shouchun was beaten by Cao Cao, and then Yuan Shao came again, and the business travelers to Shouchun basically disappeared.

Liu Xie inquired at the wharf for a day, only to find out that one was going to Shouchun, and it would take two days to load the goods before leaving.

Liu Xie made some calculations, and the boatman said that it would take four days to go upstream, plus the two days of waiting, it would be six days. If you buy a donkey and travel by land, the donkey will run to death for fifty miles a day. There are more than three hundred people from Huaiyin to Shouchun Here, time counts, and it is still faster to take a boat, so I had to exchange the jade pendant for copper coins, paid the boat fare, and found a small inn in the alley to stay and wait patiently.

I was busy fleeing for my life all the way, although I changed my clothes, I didn't have time to take a bath, so I couldn't hold back anymore, I was in a hurry to take a bath.

The inn is too small to take a bath, but there is a bathhouse on the street.

There was nothing he could do, Liu Xie, the little emperor, had no choice but to go to the big bathhouse to take a bath.

Zhou rituals have strict regulations on bathing matters: men and women do not share baths and towels; father and son have different baths, monarchs and ministers have different baths, and people with different identities, seniority, and status also have different baths.

As the emperor, Liu Xie recorded every time he took a bath, which was a very important thing in the palace—unlike the European nobles at this time who regarded not taking a bath as a healthy and good thing, if the Chinese emperor did not take a bath for five days, three days If he didn't wash his hair, it must be Shang Mu's dereliction of duty in the palace, and Shang Mu should be accused and punished.

Liu Xie loves cleanliness, and has to prepare water to bathe every day. Even if the process takes a long time, and every step must be completed according to the etiquette, he would rather wash every day.

This time, he was covered in excrement and couldn't take a bath for several days. Liu Xie felt uncomfortable all over.

I asked the innkeeper about the location of the bathhouse, and went there with copper coins.

Bathhouses are always scary places...

Although Liu Xie was mentally prepared, as soon as he stepped in, he was greeted by mixed smells and steam, and he fell down and exited.

If you read it correctly, there was a thick layer of colorless things on the ground just now...

Liu Xie struggled in every possible way, standing at the entrance of the bathhouse hesitating - if he went to bathe in the river, would he be arrested for "immorality"?

The first person in Chinese history to be accused of "guoben" was an emperor.

I'm afraid Liu Bang will crawl out of the grave in anger and beat him up!

Shake your head, no!Can't go into the river!

You can't even indulge your "squeamishness"!

Liu Xie gritted his teeth, just like Zhao Yun led A Dou into Cao Jun's army, without hesitation and death as home!Went to the bathroom.

It was only after I entered that I realized that not all of them were cheap, and there were also luxurious small bags inside.

Liu Xiehuan happily gave the money and put it into a small bag to take a bath.

This night, I finally didn't have to sleep with my nose covered.

The next day Liu Xie came to ask Xiaobao to take a bath again.

Halfway through washing my hair, the shampooer said that there was not enough water, so I had to go out to pick it up, so I opened the door and went out.

After waiting for a while, the door rang, and Liu Xie asked, "Hurry up! Is there enough water this time?"

The other party didn't speak, hot water poured down from the top of his head, and after a while, he handed him a cloth towel to wipe his face.

Liu Xie wiped the water from his eyes, and when he opened them, he felt something was wrong—is the shampoo guy not so short?

After a closer look, I was dumbfounded.

Cao, Cao Pi...

Liu Xie slapped Cao Pi on the face, and then withdrew his hand screaming "Ai Ai", "It hurts! I'm not dreaming..."

Cao Pi blushed half of his face, and looked at Liu Xie with a terrified expression.

Liu Xie blew his hands, looked around, the door was closed, only him and Cao Pi.

But... it is impossible for Cao Pi to chase him alone, so don't take chances.

Liu Xie struggled resentfully for two seconds, and then shouted: "What are you still doing!? Give me a bath!"

In an instant, Liu Xie heard Cao Pi's teeth "click" twice.

Cao Pi shouted: "Come in!"

The door opened, and two people came in, one of whom was the guy who washed his hair just now.

The two came in and bathed Liu Xie very skillfully. Cao Pi stood aside, looked carelessly, and said after a while: "The emperor may not remember them, but they do remember the emperor."

Liu Xie looked at these two people again and again, but had no impression.

Cao Pi said: "They served the emperor for a few months in Changle Palace in Xudu, followed the emperor out of the palace, and were abandoned by Yuan Shu in Yangquan. Eunuchs and the like have no ability to survive, so they only serve the emperor to take a bath and understand the palace , drifted to Huaiyin, found work in this bathhouse, and bathed dignitaries."

Seeing Liu Xie's expression collapsed, Cao Pi's expression eased a little.

"When they saw the emperor yesterday, they thought it was just an accidental resemblance, so they didn't dare to confirm it, but the emperor came again today, taking a bath for ten copper coins, and he came every day, huh... they were clever, and immediately went to the Huaiyin government office to find me , lead me here."

Liu Xie asked, "How did Zihuan come to Huaiyin?"

Cao Pi said: "Father can't go away. I promise my father that I will definitely get back to the emperor. The emperor has no money with him, so he can only barter. The pearls and jade pendants that the emperor takes to exchange for money may be the most common and most unusual things in the eyes of the emperor." It is eye-catching, but it is a rare treasure among the people. As long as you search carefully, you will definitely find clues. I found it in Huaiyin, how strange?"

Liu Xie didn't speak.

Cao Pi said: "I should have thought about it. How could the emperor not find a place to clean his body when he ran out in that way? If it weren't for these two things who betrayed the master and begged for glory, they would definitely be separated from the emperor."

When the two Huangmen heard Cao Pi's bad tone, they both knelt down and begged for mercy.

Cao Pi waved his hand: "Get out!"

While speaking, Liu Xie had finished bathing, and they were going to get the cloth towel, but they didn't dare to get the cloth towel now, and they backed out.

Cao Pi took a cloth towel and wiped it for Liu Xie.

Liu Xie wanted to escape 12 times, but he could not move.

The changed clothes were still brought by Cao Pi.

After tidying up, Cao Pi shouted: "Cao Chun come in!"

Cao Chun came in, Cao Pi said: "Hold the emperor out, the floor is too dirty."

Cao Chun glanced at Liu Xie, bowed towards him, and hugged Liu Xie, but Liu Xie didn't say a word.

When he was carried out, Liu Xie saw that the owner and guests of this bathhouse were all detained in the yard of the front and back rooms. look up.

The first ones are the two yellow gates.

Liu Xie was thinking, should I beg Cao Pi, these people are so innocent.

Unexpectedly, a yellow gate saw that the situation was not good, looked up to see Liu Xie, and shouted: "Your Majesty! I beg your Majesty..."

With a flash of the knife, the head fell to the ground.

When he called the emperor, he ruined the life of the people in this courtyard.

Liu Xie sighed, knowing that it was useless to speak, so he didn't bother.

Sure enough, there were already soldiers standing all over the street outside, and a four-horse vehicle was waiting outside the door.

Cao Chun directly sent Liu Xie to the car. It took a long time for Cao Pi to come out of the car, but he didn't stay.

Liu Xie was very discouraged and refused to speak, and Cao Pi did not speak either.

The relationship that was originally a little better, now freezes back.

Instead of going back to the Xuzhou state capital, Cao Pi took Liu Xie to the barracks, which should be the order of Cao Cao.

When Cao Cao saw Liu Xie, he waved Cao Pi and others back.

Those who have always kept the etiquette did not kowtow three times and shout long live. When the tents were empty, Cao Cao pointed at Liu Xie with a murderous look all over his body: "Your Majesty! You really have nothing to fear!! Do you really think that I dare not do anything!?"

Liu Xie said: "Does the prime minister want to kill the king and stand on his own?"

Cao Cao turned his back and walked a few steps, then looked back at Liu Xie, and said, "I knew that Your Majesty is not a mediocre lord. I, Cao Cao, thought I could know people, but I was still deceived by Your Majesty."

Liu Xie said: "I have no intention of deceiving the prime minister, but the prime minister wants to act, and I will accompany you."

Cao Cao held his forehead and circled around Liu Xie, his hand was always on the hilt of the sword, pinching or releasing it.

It is false to say that he is not afraid, Liu Xie even committed suicide just for show, Cao Cao's killing intent at the moment is not fake at all, Liu Xie knows that Cao Cao is hesitating.

Such an emperor must raise a bad emperor, if he kills him?What are the pros and cons?If you stay?What are the pros and cons?

The soldiers outside the tent reported: "My lord, Mr. Xun is asking to see you."

Cao Cao roared: "No see! Don't bother me!"

A layer of cold sweat broke out on Liu Xie's body. He tried his best to pretend not to care, but he could see clearly—Cao Cao's thumb pushed the sword in the scabbard up.

Every time you go around, the position is a little higher.

Cao Cao weighed it down, worried about what he might do in the future, and would rather lose the emperor now...

As for the charge of regicide, the two armies are at war, and even Liu Xie wants to get countless excuses to put this charge on Yuan Xi.

Careful work, sloppy arrows, fraudulent defeat...

Moreover, it is beneficial and harmless to Cao Cao's current situation.
