The Most Romantic of the Three Kingdoms
Vol 10 Chapter 344: 2 There is no strategy in the palace of the king and minister
At the end of Fushou's life, he still gave Liu Xie an idea.
She said, "Since Your Majesty is having a hard time deciding, why don't you just delay this matter for a while?"
"Queen, how to drag?"
Fu Shou said: "If your Majesty is worried that at the court meeting tomorrow, Xi Zhong and others will once again propose to worship a chariot and ride as a prefect, then it's not too bad to stop the court for a day. As for the reason for stopping the court, it's easy to find. I told the ministers that His Majesty has contracted a small ailment, so he needs to rest for a day."
Liu Xie thought for a while and agreed with Fu Shou's suggestion.
So the next morning, before the court meeting, he called the **** Zhao Yue and ordered him to immediately dispatch the **** to deliver an edict to the ministers who attended the court meeting, saying that Liu Xie was ill and would leave the court for a day.
The rain that started in the middle of the night last night has not stopped until now. Although it is smaller than the rain last night, it is still raining like a lot of rain, the ground is muddy, and the palace city is full of stagnant water.
Liu Xie disliked the stuffiness in the hall, so he climbed up the tall building and looked at the scene under the rain.
I saw far and near are a gray patch, looking at the sky, black clouds topped.
Looking to the west, it is in the direction of Xuxian county seat, and is also the location of Xunzhen Barracks. Although it was raining, and because of the distance, I couldn't hear the movement in the camp, but according to Xun Zhen's practice, whether it was raining or snowing, every day's exercise was a must. Liu Xie could imagine that now On the school field in the camp, it must be raining, and there are tigers and wolves in armor and weapons.
When Xun Zhen led his warriors and wolves to welcome him to Xu County, and when Xun Zhen was still leading this army and set off to fight Yuan Shu not long ago, Liu Xie thought that he had finally He has an elite and strong army, and is happy for it, thinking that he is promising to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty.
However, from today's point of view, this army is Xun Zhen's after all, not his.
But it has never been like this. Liu Xie has such a strong desire to be able to create and have an army that is truly loyal to him, but this idea, he can only think about it, how can he do it? ?
First of all, he had no generals, and secondly, he had no rations and no source of soldiers to recruit.
He thought sadly, "Could it be that I can only rely on people to breathe?" He was very unwilling, thinking that Yang Biao had said that he could use Yuan Shao's strength to check and balance Xun Zhen, and then he thought, "But Ruo Ruo is like Yang Biao. What you said, the chariots really have different intentions, but how can I rely on Yuan Shao's strength?" Xun Zhen's disobedience, at least not yet revealed, Yuan Shao's disobedience has long been exposed!
Suddenly I remembered that Dong Cheng had returned to Xu County from Luoyang, but I heard that he had not brought troops back. Liu Xie didn't know why he didn't bring the troops back, but just came back alone. Since he had this thought, he thought to call Dong Cheng and ask him a question.
Just thinking about it, and then thinking that he had just told the ministers that he was ill, so the court meeting could not be held today, so if Dong Cheng was summoned to see him now, wouldn’t it be contradictory? Because of this thought, that's all.
After standing on the high-rise building for a long time, Zhao Yue hurriedly came downstairs with an umbrella.
Liu Xie watched him stepping up the steps, and the figure disappeared in the building. Soon, the sound of footsteps came to his ears, and Zhao Yue appeared upstairs.
When Liu Xie approached, Zhao Yue bowed to the ground and said, "Your Highness, Ding Chong asks to see you."
Liu Xie said, "Ding Chong wants to see you? Alright, alright, call him to see you soon."
Ding Chong has always been resourceful, and his people and Xun Zhen are not in the same party. It is at this moment to see if he can do anything.
Above the tall building, it was not the place to meet the ministers, so Liu Xie went downstairs and went to the small hall dedicated to meeting the ministers.
Zhao Yue had already gone outside the palace to communicate with Ding Chong, who was already waiting in the palace.
Seeing Liu Xie entering the hall, Ding Chong bowed down and saluted.
Liu Xie noticed that Ding Chong's bun and robe were stained with rain, and said with concern: "Why did you get wet? Don't get caught in the cold because of this!"
Ding Chong replied, "If you go back to Your Majesty, the body and bones of this minister are still strong, and the rain is nothing." Because the water on his clothes and the ground were wet by him, he pleaded with Liu Xie and said, "The only thing is The hall was soaked by the rain on the body of the minister, and it would be disrespectful to be in front of Your Majesty, but you dare to ask Your Majesty to forgive you."
Liu Xie waved his hand and said with a smile, "What is this?" He instructed Zhao Yue and said, "Go and get Ding Qing some clean clothes."
Zhao Yue took the order and went out to get a set of clothes.
Ding Chong had no choice but to go to the side room beside the hall, change his clothes, then come out and meet again.
Ding Chong saluted again, paid homage to Liu Xie again, and said, "This minister is humble, and I thank His Majesty for the care of His Majesty. This minister is sincere and fearful."
Liu Xie said, "Aiqing, please get up quickly." He asked him, and said, "It's raining heavily today, why did Qing enter the palace in the rain? Is there something wrong?"
Ding Chong replied: "If you go back to Your Majesty, today is the day of the court meeting, but I just received a decree from the **** from the **** in the palace, saying that His Majesty's dragon body is sick, and this minister is very worried, so I came quickly to see His Majesty." As he spoke, his words became dull.
Although he didn't say it clearly, Liu Xie could already hear Ding Chong's doubts from his tone.
Listening to Liu Xie's words, he was full of energy, although Ding Chong never dared to look directly at Liu Xie's face, but watching Liu Xie walking, he was also very healthy, how could he look like he was ill?
Liu Xie sighed and said, "I don't lie to you, I do have a little illness, but it doesn't matter, and the reason why I didn't ascend to the court today is because I have a problem that I can't solve."
Ding Chong said: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, what is the trouble on your mind?"
Liu Xie said: "I was actually planning to call Aiqing into the palace, and wanted to ask Aiqing's opinion to see if I could solve my doubts, but Aiqing happened to be asking for advice, which is a coincidence!" After pondering, Zhao Yue waited. The eunuchs all went out first, and when only he and Ding Chong were left in the hall, they continued to talk, and they said to Ding Chong: "Ai Qing, I have committed this trouble, and it is Xi Zhong, Xun Yu and others who are on the list, please At the same time, the Grand Commander Yang Gong also wanted to appear, but he was resigning the Grand Commander and asked to pay his respects to the Grand Commander Yuan Shao!” After a pause, he asked Ding Chong, and said, “The Grand Commander Aiqing must have heard about the fact that Duke Yang wants to ask the court to pay homage to Captain Yuan Shao?"
There is no impermeable wall in the world, although Liu Xie did not know that the news had already reached Xun Zhen on the day Yang Biao and the others made this decision, but as usual, he felt that Ding Chong should have known the news. .
This is indeed the case, Ding Chong has already been informed of this.
Not only did Ding Chong know about it, the news was gradually spreading, and there were already quite a few ministers in the DPRK who knew about it.
Ding Chong replied to Liu Xie and said, "In response to Your Majesty's words, Yang Biao intends to resign himself as the Grand Commander and ask Yuan Shao to be the Grand Commander. This minister really knows a thing or two."
Liu Xie said: "Aiqing, what I said about the trouble is this! You say, what should I do? Do you agree with Yang Gong's self-resignation, please pay tribute to Yuan Shao, or do you agree with Xi Zhong, Xun Yu, would you like to worship the captain of the carriage and ride?"
Ding Chong calmly replied: "Your Majesty, in the humble opinion of the minister, it seems that it is better to grant the will of the captain Yang Biao."
Liu Xie asked, "Why is this?"
Ding Chong said: "Your Majesty, Xun Zhen has now served as a general of chariots and cavalry, as well as a recorder of books. If he is to serve the Taiwei again, the minister will worry about him. Since then, no one in the court can control him again! And his army is strong and strong. Your Majesty, this is a big taboo for monarchs! I have heard that, as a monarch, it is advisable to be good at handling both ends, so as to achieve a balance. Now in the sea, it is enough to resist chariots and riders, and the great general Yuan Shao has one ear. Now if I follow Yang Biao's intention and worship Yuan Shao, the minister thinks that Yuan Shao's elite soldiers are in Ji, and he is a foreign vassal of His Majesty. For the sake of Your Majesty's horse!"
Liu Xie said hesitantly, "What you said, Yang Gong also told me, but Aiqing, as you said, Yuan Shao is currently in Jizhou, but the chariot is in the court. , Xun Yu and so on insisted to ask the captain of the chariot and ride again, how can I refuse them?"
Ding Chong said: "Your Majesty is the Holy High. If Your Majesty does not agree, what can Xi Zhong and Xun Yu do!"
This is simple. If you can withstand Xi Zhong, Xun Yu, etc., in other words, Xun Zhen's pressure, if you can really refuse the matter of "worshiping Taiwei Xunzhen", Liu Xie will not. So difficult.
However, when he asked Ding Chong again, Ding Chong had no other way, or only this answer, Liu Xie was quite disappointed.
At this moment, Zhao Yue said loudly outside the palace gate: "Your Majesty, the little slave has something to report."
Liu Xie called him in.
Zhao Yue entered the palace from outside the palace, bowed down and saluted, and said, "Your Majesty, Xun Zhen, the general of the chariot and cavalry, is now outside the palace, asking to see Your Majesty."
Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, and said, "Xun, Duke Xun asking to see you?"
Zhao Yue said, "If you go back to Your Majesty, yes, Duke Xun is waiting outside the palace."
Here they are asking for a plan, how can I not agree to pay tribute to the captain of Xun Zhen, over there Xun Zhen went outside the palace, Liu Xie was a little flustered, and said, "Did Xun Gong said that he asked for a meeting for what?"
Zhao Yue said: "Xun Gong said that he was worried when he heard that His Majesty was ill, so he took the rain to ask for a meeting, and wanted to ask His Majesty's condition."
Liu Xie hesitated for a long time, this incident was beyond his expectations, he didn't know what to do for a while, so he looked at Ding Chong and asked: "Aiqing, Che Qiqiu to see you, do you think I will see you or not?"
"In response to His Majesty's words, Xun Zhen is currently in power in the DPRK. He heard that His Majesty's dragon body was ill and came to ask to see him. His Majesty should not be seen."
Liu Xie was helpless and had no choice but to say, "Alright then, please ride into the palace."
Saying that he was sick, then it would be very inappropriate to meet Xun Zhen in the hall. If Xun Zhen saw him so vigorous in the hall, wouldn't he slap himself? So Liu Xie changed the place where he met Xun Zhen to the bedroom.
Liu Xie hurried to the bedroom and lay down on the bed. After a short wait, Zhao Yue came in to report and said, "Your Majesty, Xun Zhen has arrived."
Liu Xie said, "Please ride in."
Lu Lu's footsteps sounded, and Xun Zhen's figure appeared at the door of the hall.
In terms of body shape, Xun Zhen's body shape today is not different from that of the past, but Liu Xie was half lying on the bed, through the curtain that covered the outside, after seeing Xun Zhen's figure, he felt the same as today's weather. In general, the gloomy dark clouds pressed on top, giving him a strong sense of oppression, like a beast, slowly approaching him.
