The revival of the Han Dynasty must start with Dong Zhuo
Chapter 126 1, 2
Chapter 126 One, Two
Cai Yan was still wearing mourning clothes and looked thin.
She held a roll of precious silk in her hand, raised it high above her head, and walked all the way from outside the palace gate to Liu Xie.
"What are you doing, Mr. Cai?"
Liu Xie was originally wondering why Cai Yan, who always followed etiquette, suddenly came to him.
Seeing Cai Yan's unusual behavior now made Liu Xie even more confused.
Cai Yan walked to the steps, knelt heavily on the ground, her eyes red.
"I, Cai Yan, heard that the Han traitor Yuan Shao was in rebellion and had established a new court in Hebei, and I was terrified. I also heard that Chen Kongzhang wrote an article to slander the emperor under Yuan Shao's order, and I was even more uneasy. Therefore, I wrote an article specifically to denounce Chen Lin, and I hope Your Majesty will take a look at it."
It was because of what Yuan Shao did in Hebei.
The manifesto written by Chen Lin was also presented to Liu Xie by Zhong Yao, so Liu Xie had read it.
It can only be said that Chen Lin is worthy of being a literary master. He is truly a genius in writing articles and can display his extraordinary talent. The words he wrote in that article are so gorgeous that even Liu Xie was amazed.
However, Liu Xie just looked at it and didn't take it to heart.
But obviously, not everyone can be as open-minded as Liu Xie.
Cai Yan looked extremely haggard. Even though her face seemed to be made up specially for the audience with the emperor, she still could not hide her tired look.
In order to write this manifesto well, Cai Yan must have worked hard and spent a lot of energy while feeling grief and indignation.
This undoubtedly made Liu Xie feel a little distressed and also felt that it was not worth it.
"Master Cai, do you know that you are still in mourning? Now that you are not accompanied by Lord Weiyang, I am afraid that your act of coming alone to see the emperor will cause some rumors... Isn't Master Cai afraid that your reputation will be damaged?"
Cai Yan responded stubbornly: "I only know the hatred of my country now, not my reputation. I have a clear conscience!"
A clear conscience?
Liu Xie walked up to Cai Yan and stood in front of her: "Mr. Cai, do you really have a clear conscience and are wholeheartedly serving the country?"
……
of course not!
Whether it is for the country or for the king, both of them have the answer in their hearts.
Cai Yan suddenly felt ashamed, and her arms, which were holding the silk, became less powerful and gradually drooped.
At this moment, a big hand grabbed Cai Yan's wrist without any hesitation.
"His Majesty!"
Cai Yan was startled and obviously a little flustered.
"It's good that Mr. Cai admits that he is not wholeheartedly serving the country. Otherwise, I would be a little sad."
Liu Xie grabbed Cai Yan's wrist and slowly sat down beside her.
"In the past few days, those generals and civil officials were also shocked by Yuan Shao's establishment of a fake emperor and wrote to me day and night... but they were doing it for the court and the Han Dynasty after all."
"Of course, what they did was their duty. I cannot blame them for such a thing."
"But today, finally someone from Cai came to comfort me out of concern that I was wronged, and I am still happy in my heart."
……
Yuan Shao's establishment of a new emperor undoubtedly violated the power of the imperial court and trampled on the dignity of the Han Dynasty.
But within the imperial court and the Han Dynasty, there were two people whose reputations were most damaged.
One is Dong Zhuo, and the other is Liu Xie.
As for the Grand Tutor... He's been scolded for so many years, so he must have gotten used to it and doesn't need anyone to comfort him.
But for Liu Xie, it was the first time.
However, as Liu Xie's reputation grew, everyone tacitly acknowledged Liu Xie's statement that "I am the state."
Only Cai Yan remembered that the emperor was the emperor and Liu Xie was Liu Xie.
Now that Cai Yan's little thoughts had been exposed by Liu Xie, she felt both surprised and frightened.
After all, the emperor's words were a little too explicit for Cai Yan.
Especially now that Cai Yan's wrist was held in Liu Xie's hand, Cai Yan, who had always had a quick mind, had her brain go blank and she didn't know what to do or say next.
"Good words."
Liu Xie held Cai Yan's wrist with one hand and began to read the manifesto written by Cai Yan with the other hand.
Cai Yong was a great calligrapher, and as his successor, Cai Yan naturally also had the style of a famous calligrapher.
But Liu Xie could still see at a glance that the words on the silk were filled with anger.
When Cai Yan wrote this manifesto, she must have been filled with great dissatisfaction.
Every word was as sharp as a knife or an axe, and the long tip of the pen seemed to pierce through the silk and pierce the enemy's heart.
Although the words used in the poem are still gorgeous, the anger in Cai Yan's heart is obviously not enough for her to continue to maintain the calmness she had during her previous practice. The words she used in many places are extremely harsh, making it impossible to tell that this is a manifesto written by a woman.
As he watched, Liu Xie suddenly couldn't help laughing.
Cai Yan was panicked: "Is there something wrong with my writing?"
"good very good."
"It's just that the wording is not quite right in one place."
"What's wrong?"
Liu Xie leaned closer to Cai Yan and pointed out to her, "Ms. Cai, why are you using 'Jishi' to refer to the emperor here?"
"It's actually fine to use this nickname, but I suddenly remembered a poem called "There is a Dead Deer in the Wilderness" that I saw when I was reading the Book of Songs."
"There was a dead deer in the wild, wrapped in white grass. There was a girl in love, and a good man seduced her."
"If I remember correctly, the 'Ji Shi' in this poem should refer to the lover of the girl in love, right?"
"Did Master Cai forget this poem when he wrote it?"
The mistakes pointed out by Liu Xie made Cai Yan feel ashamed.
"I will go back and revise it now."
"Actually, it's okay if you don't change it."
Cai Yan looked at Liu Xie in confusion, not knowing what the emperor meant.
"But this is a manifesto after all, and it shouldn't be shown to others in this way." "Then don't show it to others."
"What did your Majesty say?"
"Since Mr. Cai is embarrassed to show it to others, then why not show it to others?"
Liu Xie rolled up the silk and placed it beside him.
"Anyway, Mr. Cai wrote this manifesto for me, isn't it?"
"Besides, I wrote a poem for Master Cai last time, but Master Cai never sent me any poem... Why not just send this proclamation to me, as a courtesy."
Cai Yan was anxious: "How can that be! What I wrote was a manifesto to fight against the enemy, but what Your Majesty wrote was, was..."
"But what?"
"But it is... a love poem."
When the last two words came out of his mouth, they were already whispered as a warning.
Only then did Cai Yan notice that as Liu Xie approached, the distance between the two had become almost negligible.
At this moment, she was very close to the emperor, even closer than the last time she was in the carriage.
Heart racing!
The bloodshot retreated from the eyes and moved to the neck.
Cai Yan was breathing rapidly, but she didn't dare to breathe heavily.
Fortunately, Liu Xie noticed Cai Yan's abnormality and stepped back a little.
"Although this article by Mr. Cai is a manifesto, in my heart, no love poem can surpass this one."
Liu Xie disregarded etiquette and lay down beside Cai Yan.
"So this is what it feels like to be cared for."
Liu Xie closed his eyes, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, which made Cai Yan dazed for a moment.
"Your Majesty, that is just a manifesto after all. I have other documents..."
"What else?"
Cai Yan's words suddenly stopped. No matter how Liu Xie asked, she refused to say anything. Instead, she talked about other things in a panic.
"I have already given your Majesty's poem 'Jinse' to Fu Cainu, and she seems to like it very much."
"Oh, and Wei Yangjun, she asked me for her purse before..."
When the purse was mentioned in a panic, Cai Yan became silent again, apparently realizing that she had said the wrong thing again.
"Pocket?"
But he couldn't take back the words he had said, and they still reached Liu Xie's ears.
Liu Xie reached into his arms and rummaged around for a long time before finally pulling out a purse.
"Ever since Mr. Cai gave it to me that day, I have kept it close to my heart. Since it belongs to Lord Weiyang, I must return it to Lord Weiyang."
There is nothing wrong with the words.
But Liu Xie emphasized the word "closely", which obviously made Cai Yan realize something.
Cai Yan nervously took back the purse, not even daring to look at it, and stuffed it directly into her sleeve.
"Well, well, well... I will take my leave now."
Her legs felt weak and her heart was in a panic. Cai Yan had just stood up but fell down again and fell backwards.
Behind her was Liu Xie, who had just laid down to enjoy a moment of peace and happiness.
Cai Yan fell heavily on Liu Xie, causing her to stand up quickly like a frightened cat. Her speed was so fast that Liu Xie doubted whether Cai Yan had really fallen down just now.
"His Majesty……"
Cai Yan became more and more flustered. She seemed to have thousands of words in her mind, but they were all tangled up in a mess and she didn't know how to express them.
"Mr. Cai."
Liu Xie sat up, looked up at Cai Yan, and suddenly smiled.
"Thank you."
These two words are like the last wisp of cloud after a storm, wiping away the gloom and leaving only a rainbow over Tianxun.
Cai Yan's heart, which had been in turmoil since she entered the palace, suddenly calmed down.
"Your Majesty, this is for you."
Cai Yan took something out of her arms.
It's a brand new purse.
However, the words "Zhao Ji" were embroidered on the corner, which clearly showed that this must be Cai Yan's own private item.
Liu Xie took the purse, and before he could see the pattern on it clearly, Cai Yan immediately moved her legs and trotted out of the palace.
"Don't you all know how to bow and leave?"
Liu Xie laughed, looked at the purse carefully, put it in his arms, and picked up the manifesto on the ground.
"I didn't think of the mutual insults in the manifesto."
He summoned a palace servant and ordered him to pass on his instructions to Cai Yong.
"Let Cai Zhonglang also write a manifesto! And it must be better than Chen Lin's! Otherwise, wouldn't people think that there is no one in Guanzhong?"
After putting away the silk, Liu Xie saw that it was still early, so he stood up, dusted himself off, and resumed his duties as an emperor.
"The Grand Master still needs to be appeased. The complaints of the generals in the army still need to be suppressed by the Grand Master."
Liu Xie, who had just felt somewhat healed, returned to state affairs and immediately felt a headache.
"It's a pity that apart from the Cai family, I'm afraid there is no one else in this world who cares about me, right?"
Liu Xie felt a little depressed until he approached the Grand Master's residence and heard a hysterical roar from inside.
"How dare Yuan Shao, that brat, insult the emperor like this! Raise the troops! Raise the troops! I will send troops to Hebei right now and tie up Yuan Shao and bring him before the emperor to apologize!!!"
