Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

The Imperial Palace of Jiangning Mansion. Li Yu's face was morbidly red: "Ant! Ant..." As he spoke, he reached out and scratched his back and arms.

Zhou Ehuang on the side was at a loss for what to do, "Where do the ants come from in winter? Is your husband sick? I'll call the censor."

Li Yu didn't seem to be listening to what Zhou Ehuang said, and kept saying: "There are a lot of ants, and Jiangyin's defense envoys are ants! Who told him to be an automatic soldier, who gave him military power? And Zhennan Jiedu envoy Zhu Lingyun, how many times has he urged reinforcements, where are his soldiers? Are the troops in Hongdu (Nanchang) and Hukou not from the imperial court, but Zhu Lingyun's private soldiers, and I can't move them..."

"Husband..." Seeing his appearance, Zhou Ehuang was very distressed, and tried his best to think how to comfort him. She understood that it was useless to seek an imperial doctor, and Li Yu was obviously suffering from a heart disease.

Without waiting for Zhou Ehuang to speak, Li Yu shook his head and lamented: "There are still sailors from Jingkou, who will go to the capital to serve the king?" He walked a few steps impatiently, "Liu Cheng is still very loyal..."

Li Yu finally said that he was tired, and Zhou Ehuang had a chance to speak. She was already proficient in music, and she was full of sympathy and tenderness. Her voice seemed to warm/soften people's hearts when she spoke, "Husband, don't be so hasty. The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Maybe one day we will look back. Power and wealth are nothing more than that, and it's not worth asking for."

"Ehuang was born in a wealthy family, and he doesn't understand the sufferings of the world." Li Yu looked a little calmer, with a cold look on his sad face, "Do you think it's really so easy to live?"

Zhou Ehuang asked softly: "Isn't your husband born in the emperor's family?"

Li Yu pulled his face down and said fiercely: "That's why I can't bear the humiliation!"

Zhou Ehuang was stunned for a moment. She seemed to see a wounded beast struggling, which was a little frightening, but revealed a force that could pressure people... After all, Li Yu is a king, and he still has a manly aura in him.

Perhaps it is difficult for him to accept the inevitable result of failure immediately, and he needs to be given time. After his anger gradually subsides, he will understand that landscape poetry is what he owns, and the tenderness of staying together is much more interesting than fighting for power and profit.

Zhou Ehuang changed her previous depression, because she finally understood what she wanted. Maybe some things have been cracked and stained by the troubled times, but it is still acceptable if you relax... like an expensive and beautiful dress that has been stained at some loud and tacky party, but it is still a valuable item of clothing.

She turned her head and saw the sunlight entering the palace through the carved windows, as if dispelling the musty smell here, even the dancing dust in the light seemed lively and not annoying.

At this moment, Li Yu's voice planned this kind of tranquility, "The country of the Southern Tang Dynasty was too weak, and it was destroyed by internal fighting! And Zhou Guo didn't give me a chance to clean up the mess. The army suppressed the situation, and the original evils were stimulated."

Zhou Ehuang said: "So the people of the country will not blame you. There are so many evils that cannot be supported by one person alone."

"But I will still be considered the king of subjugation/country." Li Yu shook his head painfully.

Zhou Ehuang held Li Yu's palm tightly, wanting to suffer such pressure with him.

At this time, a eunuch came to the door, bowed and stood there with no intention of leaving, as if there was something wrong. Li Yu walked out immediately, and the eunuch took out something and held it in both hands, then bent over and whispered something. The eunuch's voice was too low, and he stood outside the door again. Zhou Ehuang couldn't hear what he was saying, only heard the sound of "muttering and muttering".

Zhou Ehuang waited for him to leave the door before following him to the door, and stretched out his jade hand gently to support the door frame. Seeing that Li Yu was already sitting next to the table, writing with a pen in hand, his posture was very elegant when he held the pen, Zhou Ehuang seemed to smell a scent of ink blowing towards his face. He frowned tightly, with a gloomy look on his face, worrying about state affairs.

Li Yu was so concentrating that she didn't notice it when she dipped the ink on the table; Zhou Ehuang immediately noticed that as a woman, she can see the most detailed things. She walked forward step by step, and the swaying of her waist in a few steps was also quite graceful.

She took out a ball of clean white handkerchief from her sleeve pocket, wiped it on the table next to the inkstone, and couldn't resist putting the handkerchief in front of her nose to smell it. The scent of ink, with a simple atmosphere, is completely different from the shallow smell of rouge pollen. The ink on the handkerchief was still wet, and when she put it in front of her jade nose to sniff, a little bit of it stuck to the tip of her nose. She felt the tip of her nose itch slightly, so she stretched out her hand to wipe it, and suddenly a black ink stain appeared on her nose, which was very abrupt on Yubai's skin.

At this moment, Li Yu raised his head and looked at her with a hint of surprise in his eyes, but his brows still did not open.

"I...you..." Li Yu suddenly hesitated.

Zhou Ehuang hurriedly stopped his mind, and asked softly: "Does your husband have anything to say to me?"

"Ehuang, what do you think of me treating you?" Li Yu lowered his head.

Zhou Ehuang felt that the words were a bit strange, so he replied calmly: "My husband has gathered thousands of favors on my concubine."

Li Yu nodded: "If you want to save me, are you willing to do something for me... something difficult to do."

"What kind of thing?" Zhou Ehuang's expression became serious, because Li Yu looked very heavy.

Li Yu suddenly shed tears, shook his head vigorously and said: "If the country is subjugated, I will not only be humiliated in life, but also ridiculed for thousands of years after death! What should I do, what should I do? The main force of the Zhou Dynasty will soon come to the city, and the wind and sails on the great river are pressing every step of the way. There is also the resentful Wuyue Kingdom who is falling into trouble and taking advantage of the fire... They are pressing day after day, and the situation is getting worse. I can't get out of my breath!"

Li Yu's face was painful, Zhou Ehuang's heart softened, and he hurriedly said: "My husband, think about it more. What can I, a woman, do for you...Only I can do it."

"Kill Guo Blacksmith!" Li Yu said this sentence suddenly.

"What?" Zhou Ehuang was stunned, and stood there for a long time without recovering. But the intuition seemed to realize something, and a heart immediately fell into the ice cave from a sudden place.

Even the sunlight outside the window seemed to turn pale in an instant.

Li Yu said sternly: "After Zhou Guoxian died, he should have reincarnated on the old road of turmoil in the Central Plains, but in fact there was a mutiny; but Guo Shao's existence stabilized the situation, and Zhou Guocai was able to go south and north in a short time. This Guo Shao is a clever existence. He not only established prestige in the army, but also the brother-in-law of the Queen Mother of Zhou. He is the link to maintain the forces of all parties in Tokyo.

Once this person dies, the state of Zhou will inevitably fall into internal strife. Every force must rush to find their own opportunity and position first, and they certainly have no intention of fighting in the south of the Yangtze River. Kill Guo Shao, this is our only way! "

Zhou Ehuang said with a pale face: "Your Majesty must have been forced into a trance, and that's why he's thinking so wildly."

Li Yu said: "No, I haven't been thinking about this for a day or two. It seems absurd at first glance, but it is actually a solution!"

Zhou Ehuang kept shaking his head: "Ministers will never allow such a thing."

Li Yu said coldly: "What do you care about them? Those people only care about their own glory and wealth, and they wish that the Zhou people would come in early so that they could sell my head for a good price! You don't need to let the courtiers know about this. At that time, I will send envoys to the Zhou army's camp to negotiate a peace, and I will send some singing girls to Guo Shao by the way.

I want to beg you, because it is probably difficult for ordinary singing girls to get close to Guo Shao, only Ehuang can. "

When Zhou Ehuang heard this, he pondered that Li Yu said that it was not a day or two to think about this matter, and remembered that Zhou Zhoumei was taken to the palace not long ago... In this kind of time when the national gate is about to be broken, the palace is even more dangerous. Why did Li Yu suddenly take the initiative to take Zhou Meimei in at this time? Is it a hostage that is both soft and hard?

And she had imagined that after the subjugation of the country, she would send love to Li Yu for landscape poetry... She suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at, what's so funny?" Li Yu asked with a frown.

Zhou Ehuang shook his head and smiled wryly: "I laugh at myself, it's so ridiculous! Suddenly I feel as ridiculous as a three-year-old child..."

Li Yu took Zhou Ehuang's slender hand and said softly, "I beg you, help me!"

Zhou Ehuang said: "Your majesty is also ridiculous, we are the laughing stock... I am so old, I have never killed a chicken, and I am a person who does not touch the sun, you ask me to assassinate a strong martial artist?"

Li Yu said: "You don't have to be strong to kill someone, you have a chance."

Zhou Ehuang said: "It's impossible for me to kill a killer, no matter what kind of person he is."

"This is really a question, I've thought about it too..." Li Yu pondered for a moment, then glanced at Zhou Ehuang again, "Are you willing to kill him?"

Zhou Ehuang said nothing.

Li Yu said: "Ehuang was originally a queen, and Guo Shao led troops into the bandits. He would not only take away everything from me, but also everything from Ehuang! Think about it, if you were captured, what kind of situation would you be in? You are willing to become a concubine and plaything of a warrior from the queen... The world and future generations will definitely laugh at Ehuang for a thousand years!"

Zhou Ehuang finally said, "I really hate him."

After hearing this, Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "Like Diaochan's removal of Dong Zhuo, Ehuang did this for the country. If it is done, you will still be the queen of the Southern Tang Kingdom, and even the benefactor of the Southern Tang Kingdom... You can rest assured that the second sister and everyone in the Zhou family will be taken care of by me."

"Hey!" Zhou Ehuang sighed faintly.

Li Yu said: "I will bring a secret letter to Guo Shao, implying that Ehuang is among the singing girls, so as not to be ignored by him. Infer, Ehuang will definitely be able to see him, and he will also have a chance."

Zhou Ehuang said coldly: "Just now the king said that he could not bear the humiliation, but you sent your queen to the camp of the enemy country. Don't you think it is a humiliation?"

Li Yu said: "After the country is subjugated, such humiliation has to be endured, and more!" He pondered for a moment, and then said, "Now Ehuang will follow me to see someone."
