Later, Zhang Liao reported some specific things in the army to Liu Xie and introduced him to the military camp.

After walking around for about half a stick of incense, we arrived at the camp designated by Zhang Liao for Feathered Forest Guard.

Three thousand Feathered Forest Guard, everyone is wearing armor and sharp, and their crotches are all made of fine Warhorses from Grasslands, looking majestic.

Just like a Elite Troops Cavalry.

The quality of individual soldiers is not as good as White Horse Volunteers, but with the blessing of armor weapons, the combat effectiveness is definitely still higher than White Horse Volunteers.

Liu Xie After inspecting it, he nodded with satisfaction.

He turned to Zhang He Gao Lan who was standing aside and said, "Yuan Shao has hidden troops in Qu Liang and Guantao. If we bring in troops tomorrow, it's up to you whether we can annihilate them."

Zhang He said solemnly, "Your Majesty Don't worry, Feathered Forest Guard was originally selected from Elite Troops Soldiers, and with such armor and weapons, it will be called Yuan Shao. There will be no return!"

Gao Lan also nodded heavily in approval.

"Good! I hope you two can help Feathered Forest Guard regain the glory of Emperor Wu, the Filial and Martial. Tomorrow, let me see if Feathered Forest Guard is sharp!"

Zhang He and Gao Lan felt their blood boiling after hearing this.

I wish I could lead Feathered Forest Guard immediately and kill Yuan Thief among thousands of troops.

Xu County, Imperial Palace.

Fu Wan spent a day recuperating at home, and then he was summoned by Empress Fu to join Imperial Palace. When the latter saw his appearance, he couldn't help but be shocked.

"Father, what's wrong?"

Empress Fu asked anxiously and worriedly.

Because Fu Wan looks extremely weak now, looking sluggish and haggard, as if he has a serious illness.

We haven't seen each other for just a few days, how could this happen?

Fu Wan waved his hand and said in a low mood, "It's okay, it's just an illness...Empress summoned me to the palace, why?"

The incident of Yang Biao committing suicide by hitting a wall the day before yesterday has been suppressed by Cao Cao, but it also confirmed the fact that Yang Biao subcontracted Son of Heaven.

He, Imperial Father-in-Law, has become one of the culprits of False Son of Heaven. How can he not feel haggard when he is always in fear and uneasiness?

Empress Fu saw that Fu Wan was unwilling to say more, so he had to suppress his worries and get down to business. "Did father know that Cao Cao led troops into the palace a few days ago? He not only questioned Your Majesty's identity, but also forced Your Majesty to admit that he was Pretender Emperor."

"Your Majesty refused to obey, Cao Thief actually drew his sword and faced it. His tampering intention has been clearly exposed!"

"Father, Cao Cao is so rebellious. If he continues like this, I'm afraid he will really commit the crime of others and usurp the throne!"

Empress Fu's tone was full of worry.

Although Son of Heaven asked her not to tell Fu Wan and others about the matter, she couldn't help it because what Cao Cao did was too much.

Leading the troops into the forbidden area, facing Son of Heaven with bare swords.

This is an unpardonable sin!

"Hmm."

Fu Wan didn't feel angry after hearing this, he just nodded lightly.

Cao Cao sent Chen Qun to Ye City, indicating that he knew the truth.

This time when he led troops into the palace, it seems that he confirmed from Pretender Emperor that the person of Stealing Heaven and Replacing the Sun was Yang Biao.

That's why I broke into Yang Residence the day before yesterday and interrogated Yang Biao's accomplices.

If you follow it through thoroughly, everything will be traceable and reasonable.

Empress Fu didn't expect Fu Wan's reaction to be so dull. He couldn't help but frown and said, "Why did my father react so dull? Cao Cao humiliated Son of Heaven so much and even ordered Armored Soldiers to take me away forcibly. This offended the majesty of the heavenly family. As Imperial Father-in-Law, my father, shouldn't he just ignore it?"

She really couldn't understand Fu Wan's coldness.

The former Fu Wan would have been so angry after hearing this news that he would have blown his beard and glared, directly carrying a cane to the door to find Cao Cao to settle the score.

Now he is so cold, as if he is a different person.

Fu Wan raised his eyelids and said, "What can I do if I know? Cao Cao is so powerful that I can't do anything about it."

"Father!" Empress Fu said angrily, with tears in his eyes. "Do you also think Son of Heaven is fake? This is just an excuse for Cao Thief to commit tampering. How can father believe it!"

"If the father does not believe in his daughter, she is willing to die to prove her innocence!"

Empress Fu was extremely chaste. As he spoke, he pulled out Golden Hairpin from his hair and pressed it against his white neck. He opened his eyes angrily and stared straight at Fu Wan.

As long as Fu Wan dares to say no, she will commit suicide immediately!

"Empress!" Fu Wan's face finally changed, and he said anxiously, "I didn't say I didn't believe it, so why would Empress do this? It's just that I really can't help it."

"Cao Thief is so powerful, how can I defeat him!"

This sentence is half an excuse and half a truth. Firstly, he cannot protect himself and really does not want to take risks for Pretender Emperor in the palace. Secondly, Cao Cao is indeed powerful, but he has nothing to do.

Empress Fu still didn't give up and pressed. "My daughter invited her father to the palace today just to discuss this matter. My daughter has a good plan, as long as her father is willing to help!"

"If the father does not agree, the daughter will commit suicide in front of her father!"

Fu Wan felt a huge headache, but he couldn't just watch his daughter commit suicide in front of him, so he could only comfort him, "Tell me, what's the best idea?"

Empress Fu then calmed down a little, put down the hairpin in his hand, and said, "Cao Thief forced Your Majesty to conspire to usurp the throne. None of the ministers in the DPRK and China knew about this."

"As long as the father takes his daughter to cover Phoenix Seal's edict to contact Lord Yang and Duke Dong, the ministers who are loyal to Your Majesty, and unite to get rid of Cao Thief, Your Majesty can regain power!"

The idea of Empress Fu is simple.

As long as Cao Cao, the biggest Traitor, can be killed, then Son of Heaven can regain power and everything can get back on track!

"Kill Cao Cao? This is really..."

Fu Wan felt that Empress Fu's idea was too naive.

I was about to shake my head and refuse, but stopped when the words reached my lips.

Because he suddenly discovered a key point - Cao Cao is indeed Traitor!

Regardless of Son of Heaven of Xu County or Ye City, as long as Cao Cao can be eliminated, then he is a loyal Han Dynasty hero!

Two Sons of Heaven, whether true or false, his contribution must be recognized.

Even if Son of Heaven of Ye City finally regroups and settles the scores, although the fact that Empress Fu allowed Pretender Emperor to marry him cannot be changed, for the sake of his sincerity and loyalty, he can still preserve the family to the greatest extent!

Thinking of this, Fu Wan's originally dead heart was ignited with a glimmer of hope, and his spirit was also lifted up.

"Okay! Write an edict quickly and I will contact Court Officials and remove Cao Thief!"

"Thank you, father!" Empress Fu was overjoyed and handed the edict he had prepared to Fu Wan. At the same time, he did not forget to warn, "This matter is the daughter's own decision. Father, please do not let Your Majesty know about it."

Fu Wan nodded, put away the edict and left.

Let him Puppet know what to do?

There is no guarantee that in order to survive, he was the first to inform Cao Thief.

After returning home, Fu Wan began to think about who to recruit to help eliminate the thieves.

"Yang Biao, this cunning old man, can't do it. I am Maternal Relatives of the Emperor, and I am regarded as a thorn in his side. Otherwise, he wouldn't have hidden the matter of Son of Heaven from me. Besides, he is now under house arrest by Cao Cao, and he can't help me."

"As for Dong Cheng, although he is in the same boat as me now, he has great ambitions and is not a good minister. He was the one who summoned Cao Cao to lead troops to Beijing in an attempt to eradicate dissidents and monopolize the government through Cao Cao."

"From this point of view, who else is important enough..."

Fu Wan murmured to himself, and the faces of Imperial Court important ministers flashed in his mind.

Finally, the target was locked on a counselor under Cao Cao.

"Xun Yu, Xun Wenruo!"

Fu Wan raised his head suddenly, his eyes shining brightly.

"Although Xun Wenruo works for Cao Cao, everyone knows that he is loyal to the Han Dynasty."

"Besides, he is deeply trusted by Cao Cao. If I get his help, I will be able to get rid of Cao Cao in the name of a loyal minister!"

Having made up his mind, Fu Wan took the edict into his arms.

I took a look at the evening sky outside, got up and left Study.

Xun Residence.

Since being publicly humiliated by Xu You the day before yesterday, Xun Yu has been staying at home, claiming to be ill and refusing to see guests.

Those words are really too sharp.

Even if he believes that Son of Heaven of Xu County is Great Han Orthodoxy, how can Cao Cao, who has monopolized the government for more than two years, look like a loyal minister?

He claims to be loyal to the Han Dynasty, but he works under Traitor, who is in Court Officials's heart. Isn't it the greatest absurdity in the world!

Being publicly humiliated by Xu You, the fig leaf that he had been using to convince himself was also torn off, making him feel extremely ashamed.

"Xun Yu, Xun Yu, who are you loyal to?"

"Son of Heaven? Or...Grand Minister of Works?"

"Or are you just a selfish person, doing everything just for your own reputation and Xun Family interests?"

Xun Yu looked at the brilliant sunset in the sky, his expression became more and more painful.

Great Han is a dual-master system. Son of Heaven is the largest master, followed by those who are loyal and follow them.

He could have used this to refute Xu You's accusation against him that day, but the reason why he did not refute was because he knew it was just an excuse.

You can deceive others, but you cannot deceive yourself.

His heart is always wavering, always looking forward and backward, he must be loyal to the Han Dynasty's reputation and family interests.

Xun Yu let out a long sigh and fell into confusion.

I don't know how long it took, but the housekeeper came to report, "Master, Imperial Father-in-Law Fu is here to visit."

Xun Yu came back to his senses, raised his old bloodshot eyes and looked at the housekeeper, "I refused to see guests because I was sick, what is he doing here?"

The housekeeper said, "Imperial Father-in-Law said that he has something important to discuss with the master. I don't dare to be rude, so I came to report to the master."

Xun Yu thought for a moment and said, "Bring him here."

The housekeeper agreed and soon walked in with Fu Wan.
