Can I get to the other side?

When he saw clearly the face of the young man standing in the river, Jushou was extremely shocked.

He was once in Chang'an, where he saw the emperor's royal carriage and saw the emperor's holy face with his own eyes. His memory was particularly profound!

So there is no way he would admit his mistake.

The young man in front of me is the Emperor of Han Dynasty!

But how is this possible?

Not to mention that the emperor has been in the imperial capital for a long time and was welcomed by Cao Cao to Xu County after the destruction of Luoyang City. In terms of travel alone, with the dignity of the emperor, he will be praised by the stars wherever he goes. How could he be alone? Appearing here without even an attendant?

And he was dressed in such rags, like a beggar.

This is simply not the majesty that an emperor should have!

"No, I have to confirm."

Jushou secretly thought and had an idea.

Although his reason and intuition told him that the person in front of him could not be the emperor, the appearance of the other person was indeed the same as the emperor in his memory.

He had to confirm the other party's identity.

Thinking of this, Jushou walked forward with the fish basket and said politely: "Your Majesty...little brother, can you do me a favor?"

Liu Xie, who was struggling to catch fish in the river, raised his head when he heard this, looked around, then pointed at himself with some confusion and said: "Are you talking to me?"

Even the sound is the same...

Jushuo was shocked again, then he smiled and said, "Yes, I caught a few fish and wanted to roast them, but I'm not good at cooking and I don't know how to handle them."

"Little brother, if it's convenient, can you help me?"

When he heard that the other party asked him to help grill the fish, Liu Xie looked embarrassed and said: "But I still have to catch fish to eat..."

"It doesn't matter, we can just eat together."

"Okay! Deal!"

Liu Xie said firmly and agreed directly.

He was waiting for this sentence!

Afraid that the other party would regret it, Liu Xie jumped directly onto the shore, grabbed the fish basket, took out the fish, disembowelled it with a bamboo spear, and cleaned it with extremely agile hands and feet.

"I'm telling you, you've found the right person to grill fish with me. The fish I grill is amazing, so just wait and eat it."

Liu Xie said proudly, skewered the prepared fish with tree branches and stuck them on the ground.

Then he picked up branches and hay from around, and took out flint from his arms to make a fire.

Mudd!

This crap is far less useful than a lighter.

Liu Xie worked hard for a long time and finally lit the fire.

Jushou stood aside and looked at Liu Xie who was busy, and finally confirmed in his heart.

The man in front of me is not the emperor.

The reason is very simple. The emperor is so noble. He has been richly clothed and well-fed since he was a child. How could he kill fish, make fire, and grill fish?

These are things only low-level cooks and common people know.

"It's really surprising that there are people who look exactly like the Emperor in this world..."

Jushou sighed secretly in his heart.

Although he had heard that some big shots would keep people who looked like themselves as substitutes to avoid assassinations, he had never seen this in reality.

Moreover, it is rare to have the same appearance as the Emperor, and it can be confused with the real one.

"Wait... is it fake?"

Jushou suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up instantly.

He once again turned his attention to Liu Xie, who was grilling fish with great enthusiasm, and couldn't help but have a crazy and bold idea in his mind.

"If you let this person pretend to be the emperor, and then let the lord announce to the world that the emperor is in Jizhou, then the emperor in Cao Cao's hands will become a fake!"

"In this way, the lord can hold the emperor hostage and command the princes!"

Jushou's heart couldn't help but beat fast.

This plan is really too crazy and bold. It is such a disobedient act for someone to pretend to be the emperor. Once discovered, he will definitely be reviled by everyone in the world.

But... who can find out?

"My lord is the fourth generation and the third prince. He has a distinguished family background and a reputation that no one can match. As long as he announces that the emperor is in Jizhou, no one will question it!"

"Even if the world doubts it, it doesn't matter. All the lord needs is a great righteousness, and the true or false identity of the emperor is not important. As long as the lord says that the person in front of him is the emperor, there will be great scholars coming to debate the scriptures."

"Not to mention that this person looks exactly the same as the Emperor, it's impossible to tell them apart!"

The more Jushou thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible. Although there were certain risks, compared with the huge benefits brought by controlling the emperor, this risk was completely worth it!

Thinking of this, Jushou did not hesitate and asked Liu Xie directly: "Little brother, do you want to be rich and powerful?"

"don't want."

Liu Xie lowered his head to grill the fish without even raising his head when he heard the words.

"..."

Jushou's eyelids couldn't help but twitch when he heard this, and he was caught off guard by this answer.

He hasn’t even said what this wealth is!

Refuse so simply?

Liu Xie seemed to have guessed Ju Shou's thoughts. While turning the grilled fish in his hand, he said casually: "There is no such thing as a free lunch. Even children understand this."

"I'm just an ordinary person, I just want to live a good life."

After traveling through time for so long, he finally recognized the reality.

What kind of king doesn't have royal power and hegemony? He just wants to live.

Moreover, an expert once said that those who say they want to help you make a lot of money usually want to make money from you.

"Oh? If that's the case, why did you accept my invitation to eat fish together? Isn't it all for nothing?"

Jushu thought this young man was interesting and asked with a smile.

Liu Xie was unhappy when he heard this: "Hey, hey, hey, people should be reasonable. You asked me to help you grill fish, which is employment; I ate the fish, which is my due reward, how can I eat it for nothing?"

Ju Shou said: "What if I hire you to do other things? Are you willing?"

"No."

Liu Xie shook his head and answered very straightforwardly, "I can grill fish, and there is no risk; but if you want to hire me to do other things, it's hard to say."

"It is important to know yourself. I don't want to be a pawn and cannon fodder for you big shots. Even if the wealth you talk about is gold falling from the sky, I have to consider whether I will be crushed to death."

Although Liu Xie didn't know the identity of the man in front of him, judging from his clothes and conversation, he was definitely not ordinary.

Apart from other things, he is definitely much better than him, a refugee.

If a person with a higher status than you suddenly runs over and says he wants to give you wealth, then he probably doesn't have any good intentions.

"Hahaha! Well said!"

Ju Shou couldn't help laughing when he heard this, his eyes full of admiration, and he had a higher opinion of this young man who looked very similar to the emperor.

If it were an ordinary refugee, he would have been tempted to hear such words, but this young man was able to remain rational and refuse, which was really a good mentality.

He is a smart man.

"I'll just eat one, I'm leaving first."

Liu Xie didn't want to get entangled with this inexplicable guy, he just wanted to stay away from him, so he picked up a grilled fish and was about to leave.

But as soon as he stood up, his shoulder was held down.

"Young man, don't leave in a hurry."

Ju Shou looked at him with a smile and said, "What if I said that this overwhelming wealth is for you to become the emperor?"
