Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 285 The Anger of Emperor Liu Xie

As soon as Zhang Sui left, the way Emperor Liu Xie, Empress Fu Shou, and all the civil and military officials looked at Cao Cao changed.

Especially Emperor Liu Xie, who asked Cao Cao to stay in Hangu Pass, felt a little uncomfortable.

How could Cao Cao not know what Emperor Liu Xie was thinking?
It's nothing more than trying to delay time so that you can come up with ways to deal with yourself.

However, Cao Cao agreed.

Zhang Sui took his army with him to say goodbye, but they had not gone far.

If this kid suddenly comes back, it would be difficult to explain.

Thinking of the scene this morning when he wiped the Qinggang sword beside him, Cao Cao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

I've heard Xi Zhicai talk about his identity before.

He originally thought that Xi Zhicai was exaggerating just for Yuan Shao's sake.

Now it seems that it is a bit underestimated.

However, this kid is so powerful that we can use him to our advantage.

Yuan Shao's three sons and one nephew also have some abilities.

There is no room for two tigers in one mountain.

As long as the right time is given, they can be made to kill each other.

Of course, not now.

Now, the most important thing for Cao Cao is to move the emperor and all civil and military officials to Xu County, and then use the emperor's prestige to expand his own strength.

After we conquer the Central Plains and other places, we can compete with Yuan Shao and then take action.

While Cao Cao sent scouts to follow Zhang Sui from a distance to determine the exact location of Zhang Sui's army, he allowed Emperor Liu Xie and civil and military officials to continue to make trouble in Hangu Pass.

As long as Zhang Sui is not here.

Now Zhang Ji, Yang Feng and others have left again.

Only the right wing of the Xiongnu and Wang Yi, the governor of Hedong County, were left.

Cao Cao was not afraid at all.

When the Xiongnu Chanyu led the left and right tribes and the Chanyu tribe and joined forces with Yuan Shu and others, he was not afraid.

Now there are only 5,000 cavalrymen left in the right wing of the Xiongnu. How could he be afraid?
Cao Cao directly ordered Cao Hong and Cao Chun to lead 10,000 soldiers to move towards the right wing of the Xiongnu without saying anything. When Qu Bei, the right wise king of the Xiongnu, heard the soldiers' report, he immediately understood Cao Cao's intention.

After a brief discussion with Hedong County Magistrate Wang Yi, the two immediately found Emperor Liu Xie and asked to go back.

At this time, this was the residence of Emperor Liu Xie.

Emperor Liu Xie sat alone in the first seat.

Below him, on both sides, knelt a group of civil and military officials.

The father-in-law Dong Cheng and the father-in-law Fu Wan sat in the first seats on the left and right respectively.

Other civil and military officials sat on both sides.

Emperor Liu Xie looked at the pleading faces of the Xiongnu Right Wise King Qubei and the Hedong County Magistrate Wang Yi, opened his mouth, and could not utter a word for a long time.

Emperor Liu Xie was angry.

He originally wanted to use high positions and generous salaries to lobby Zhang Sui to assist him, the Huns, and the armies of various princes to confiscate Cao Cao's troops.

Afterwards, he took back the military power from Zhang Sui, personally commanded the armies, conferred himself the title of Grand Marshal of the Army of the Nation, and with Luoyang as the center, slowly put down the various rebellions.

However, they did not expect that during this period Zhang Ji and Yang Feng secretly took their troops away.

Zhang Sui was not interested in high positions and generous salaries, so he left today.

Now, even the Huns and Hedong County Governor Wang Yi are leaving.

So who is left of him?

There was Dong Cheng and his one thousand men, as well as five hundred Tiger Guards and hundreds of civil and military officials.

Moreover, these civil officials and military generals had no military power.

Then how to deal with Cao Cao and others?

When the Right Wise King of the Xiongnu, Qubei, and the Governor of Hedong County, Wang Yi, saw that Emperor Liu Xie had not spoken a word, they looked at each other and nodded.

You absolutely cannot stay here any longer.

Otherwise, Cao Cao would not just be threatening, but would take direct action!
In their early years, they were unable to defeat Cao Cao.

Now that Cao Cao’s power has grown, they are even more afraid.

Since the emperor doesn't say anything, that means he agrees.

The Right Wise King Qubei and Wang Yi bowed together and then left.

The civil and military officials all shed tears when they saw Youxian Wang Qubei and Hedong County Magistrate Wang Yi leave. When they crossed the river from Puban Port, they were full of high spirits and thought that they had ushered in a turning point for the better.

But I didn't expect that it was all just an illusion.

The father-in-law Fu Wan even prostrated himself on the table, crying and shaking all over.

Emperor Liu Xie looked at this scene of civil and military officials, raised his head, and forced back his tears.

Without paying any more attention to the crowd, Emperor Liu Xie walked out of the house alone and came outside.

He felt extremely melancholy.

Is it possible that in such a huge Han Dynasty, there is no loyal minister who can truly help him restore the Han Dynasty?
Suddenly, Emperor Liu Xie saw Empress Fu Shou and Concubine Dong standing together.

The two stood in the sunshine, talking about something.

Lady Dong’s face was all smiles.

Queen Fu Shou was wearing bright clothes and even had a smile on her face.

I thought of what the father-in-law Dong Cheng had said before about the relationship between Queen Fu Shou and Yuan Shao.

Thinking of the fact that his father-in-law Fu Wan's wife was Princess Yang'an, Emperor Liu Xie's hands were clenched so hard that they made a crackling sound.

One of them is his closest relative and the other is his legal wife.

Now that the country is in ruins, there is no one willing to sacrifice himself to help me!

Emperor Liu Xie slammed his sleeves and said sternly, "Let Fu Guozhang and the Queen come to the side hall!"

When the eunuch heard what Emperor Liu Xie said, he quickly responded and walked towards Queen Fu Shou who was chatting with Concubine Dong.

Empress Fu Shou frowned when she heard the eunuch say that the emperor wanted to see her in a side hall.

She doesn't know what to talk about between herself and the emperor?

Although she was confused, she followed him anyway.

Not long after, she saw her father, the father-in-law of the country, Fu Wan, also walking out of the hall and walking towards the side hall with her.

When Fu Wan saw Queen Fu Shou, his face fell.

But he didn't speak either.

Fu Shou watched Fu Wan calmly walk past him, his hands hidden in his sleeves clenched into fists.

In the end, she still endured it.

The father and daughter walked to the side hall one after the other.

There, Emperor Liu Xie stood in front of the desk with his back to the two men.

Hearing the footsteps, Emperor Liu Xie asked the eunuchs to guard outside and close the door.

Fu Wan hurriedly bowed to Emperor Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty!"

Emperor Liu Xie then turned around and looked down at Fu Wan and Fu Shou, but did not let them sit down. Instead, he said to Fu Wan, "Fu Aiqing, I remember that you are the seventh-generation grandson of Grand Tutor Fu Zhan."

"The late emperor has always remembered your kindness, so he promised you Princess Yang'an as his wife."

"And, I have entrusted you with important tasks one after another."

"I am also thinking about your kindness."

"Therefore, the first thing I will do after I come of age is to promote your daughter from a noble lady to a queen and make her my principal wife."

Fu Wan knelt down hurriedly, prostrating himself on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I will always remember your kindness in my heart!"

Queen Fu Shou remained silent and just looked at Emperor Liu Xie quietly.

When Emperor Liu Xie heard Fu Wan's words, he laughed out loud and said, "What a good way to remember it!"

"Father-in-law, is this how you treat me?"

"I have never treated you unfairly. Now that you and Yuan Shao are so close, you are unwilling to lobby Zhang Sui for me, so that Zhang Sui can leave with his army in broad daylight?"

"Do you know that this is the time for me to strike back?"

"As long as Zhang Sui is willing to stay, I can use him and the other princes' armies to defeat Cao Cao's army in one fell swoop!"

"With Zhang Sui's army and Cao Cao's army in hand, I can wipe out the rebels and restore the Han Dynasty."

"As the father-in-law of the emperor, don't you even know this?"

Emperor Liu Xie glanced at Fu Wan and Empress Fu Shou viciously, his eyes bloodshot, and said in a shrill voice: "It was because of your inaction that Zhang Sui left like this!"

"Only then can Zhang Ji, Yang Feng, the Xiongnu and Hedong County Governor Wang Yi leave!"

"Now, all the military power I could have fought for is gone."

"I have become a puppet that anyone can manipulate again. Are you and your daughter happy?!"
