Rubbing his face, which had grown stiff from smiling, Liu Xie sighed wearily. "Women in love are truly terrifying."
As his feelings with Zhen Mi had deepened, he had discovered that beneath her aloof goddess exterior was actually a lovestruck, clingy woman!
Not only did she obey his every wish and let him do as he pleased, she also clung to him almost every day.
With a lovestruck nature that made her cling even to the Son of Heaven, it was no wonder she had been killed over jealousy in history.
"Now all that remains is to see whether she can bring back good news." Liu Xie felt both nervous and expectant.
Although countless powerful clans throughout history had risked everything for that supreme power, he did not know whether the Zhen Clan would do the same.
After standing there for a while, Liu Xie did not return to his Bedchamber, but headed for another side hall instead.
Zhen Mi was far too clingy. These past few days, he had not had a single chance to visit the three beauties Boss Yuan had sent him.
Now he had to seize the opportunity.
"I am not coveting their beauty. I am doing this to keep Yuan Shao from growing suspicious... Ah, I am sacrificing so much."
"It is all that old villain Yuan Shao's fault!"
Sighing, Liu Xie quickened his pace.
Yingchuan.
After Lü Bu occupied Shouchun, Cao Cao withdrew to Yingchuan.
His purpose in dispatching troops had been to seize Shouchun and, along the way, recover the Imperial Seal in Yuan Shu's possession.
Now that his aims had come to nothing, there was no reason to linger.
As for the struggle over Yang Province, Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren would handle that.
What truly gave him a headache now
