This is a great thing.

But the existence of Empress Fu is also an unstable factor.

It must be firmly pressed to death!

"Send Gao Lan over here."

On the way, Liu Xie ordered someone to summon Gao Lan.

Not long after, before he arrived at Bedchamber of Zhen Mi, Gao Lan had already arrived.

"Your Majesty What are your orders?"

"Build a palace in the palace Weiyang Palace..." Liu Xie said, shook his head again, and changed his words: "That's all, a new palace costs a lot of money, wastes people and money. Find a room that is more spacious. The palace was renamed Pepper Chamber Hall, and Bedchamber as Empress. All specifications are in accordance with the specifications of Empress."

"No."

Gao Lan accepted the order and was about to leave when Liu Xie called him to stop him again.

"Pepper Chamber Hall is Empress Bedchamber, and the guard must be tight. Find a confidant whom you absolutely trust, and lead Feathered Forest Guard to guard Pepper Chamber Hall. The maids you serve are selected from the children of good families in the folk. They only need to be of pure wealth, and they do not require noble birth."

"In addition, Empress has been excessively worried about my safety in the past three years. He has suffered from a serious heart disease and needs to rest. No one is allowed to disturb Empress's rest."

Gao Lan asked, "Your Majesty, if Imperial Father-in-Law wants to see Empress?"

Liu Xie frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "If Imperial Father-in-Law wants to see Empress, report it to me as soon as possible."

"I will obey the Holy Order!" Gao Lan already knew it in his heart.

Your Majesty This is to put Empress under house arrest.

No one is allowed to meet except Imperial Father-in-Law.

Even if Imperial Father-in-Law wants to visit, he still needs permission from Your Majesty.

After Liu Xie explained some matters to Gao Lan, he walked into Zhen Mi's palace.

As soon as he entered Zhen Mi's room, he saw her leaning on the soft couch and secretly feeling sad.

"Your Majesty!"

Zhen Mi heard the footsteps coming from behind and turned his head to take a look. He was overjoyed and the baby bird threw itself into Liu Xie's arms like a forest.

Liu Xie hugged Keren'er and rushed into his arms. Looking at her eyes that were suddenly filled with tears, he joked:

"Why is my concubine crying?"

Zhen Mi raised his head and looked at Liu Xie with tears in his eyes.

"I thought Empress entered the palace, and Your Majesty despised me."

Liu Xie After listening, I still don't know that Zhen Mi has a sense of crisis.

I'm afraid that when Empress Fu comes back, she will be left out in the cold.

Although Zhen Mi is a jealous person, after more than two years, Liu Xie can feel whether she is sincere towards him or not.

At this moment, looking at her pretty little face, I can't help but feel a little moved in my heart.

Putting the memorial aside, he put his hands around her slender waist and said:

"I have long said that I and other women are just having fun, and only my beloved concubine is the one I love in this life."

Zhen Mi The little face that was originally full of pear blossoms immediately turned into a flower with a smile.

Liu Xie These words made her feel extremely sweet.

He rubbed his little face against Liu Xie's chest and said shyly, "It's getting late, Your Majesty should go to bed."

Liu Xie looked at the memorial on the side, and then at the charming Luo Shen. He kept thinking in his heart that Wenrou Township is the Tomb of Heroes, and finally restrained the desire in his heart with great perseverance.

"My beloved, please go and rest. I still have memorials to review."

Zhen Mi had a slight disappointment on his face.

She has not endured the rain and dew of Your Majesty for more than half a month.

But fortunately, she also understood the importance, nodded obediently, and said, "After Your Majesty has finished reviewing the memorial, I will wait for Your Majesty to go to bed."

Liu Xie scratched Zhen Mi's nose and said, "I have to review until late at night. If my beloved concubine is sleepy, just go to bed."

"Your Majesty State affairs are of paramount importance. I will go and cook a bowl of Plum Soup for Your Majesty." Zhen Mi said that and went out.

Liu Xie took a stack of memorials and sat in front of Table to read them one after another.

It was not until the third quarter of Chou Hour that he had finished reviewing all the memorials.

"Under Gao Gan's conquest, Zhang Lu lost troops and generals. During this period, Liu Bei secretly developed Three Thousand Troops to eight thousand, which was able to influence the situation of Hanzhong, making it impossible for Gao Gan to return to Bing Province."

"After the death of Gongsun Zan, Yuan Shao was unstoppable and had conquered the three counties of You Province. However, it did not fully occupy the entire territory of You Province. Instead, it was eager for quick success and quick gains and assembled an army to attack Ji County."

"In addition, Yuan Tan led an army of five thousand to return to Qing Province, and Guo Yuan led an army of ten thousand to guard Bing Province."

"Wei Commandery, Guangping Commandery, Yangping Commandery have all returned to Han Territory, Qu Liang and Guantao needs to send a large army to guard it. Guo Jia recommends sending Huang Zhong and Taishi Ci to lead five thousand troops respectively to guard these two cities."

"Feathered Forest Guard cannot move. Ten thousand Xu Province Army need to protect Ye City's safety. Likewise, they cannot move without permission."

"The only thing that can be mobilized right now is the thousands of Yi Cong recruited by Yuan Xi. We are short of troops!"

"The situation of this year's autumn harvest is not optimistic. Not only can many people not be able to pay the grain tax, they can't even guarantee food and clothing for their families."

"Wei Commandery, as the richest county in Ji Province, is like this, let alone other states and counties?"

Liu Xie closed his eyes, his head becoming heavier and heavier.

He couldn't stand it anymore after staying up late for dozens of days to review the memorial.

Sitting up from Table, Liu Xie stretched.

I glanced at Zhen Mi, who was leaning on Soft Couch and dozing off in a daze.

He walked forward and carried her onto the bed.

Liu Xie, who was exhausted both physically and mentally, had no other thoughts and just fell asleep holding Zhen Mi.

Qing Province, Linzi.

Under the order of Yuan Shao, Yuan Tan has led troops back to Qing Province from Yi City, and has begun to reorganize military affairs to prepare for attacks from Yan Province and Xu Province.

At this time, in Prefect's Residence, Yuan Tan is discussing with Lü Kuang and Jiang Qi how to set up defenses and how to guard against possible attacks by Cao Cao and Lü Bu.

At the same time, they also received news from Xu County.

"I really didn't expect that Pretender Emperor would have such courage to join forces with Dong Cheng to launch Military Coup."

Yuan Tan looked surprised after reading the information.

Even True Son of Heaven is just a Puppet of his father, a fake kidnapped by Cao Cao. He actually wants to seize power. It has to be said that he is really audacious.

Lü Kuang said with regret, "Then if Pretender Emperor could kill Cao Cao in one fell swoop, it would have eliminated a big enemy for Lord, but it's a pity that he failed."

"Now Pretender Emperor has escaped from Xu County and no one knows where he went."

Cao Cao dominates Yan Province and Yu Province. Although its power is far less powerful than Yuan Shao, it occupies the ground of Central Plains and should not be underestimated.

If Cao Cao was really killed by Pretender Emperor and allowed Pretender Emperor to seize power, it would be much easier to clean up later.

"Just one Pretender Emperor, what kind of climate can it have?"

Yuan Tan casually put down the information and stopped paying attention to the matter. He said to Lü Kuang and Jiang Qi: "The most important thing for us right now is to keep an eye on Lü Bu and Cao Cao."

"My father didn't like Army Supervisor Tian's advice. I turned around and thought about it carefully, but felt that what Army Supervisor Tian said was reasonable. Cao Cao and Lü Bu had to be on guard, especially Lü Bu."

"Now the battle over You Province is going extremely smoothly. My father wants Accomplish Everything in One Battle to conquer Ji County before Winter. I'm afraid it will take a lot of effort. Once You Province is completely conquered, the next target will naturally be Wei Commandery Ye City."

"Lü Bu and Yuan Xi are colluding together. They definitely don't want to see Ye City lost. They will most likely send troops to help or even attack from behind."

"Yan Province is occupied by Cao Cao. Qing Province is the only place Xu Province must pass on its way to Ji Province. We must focus on defense."

Yuan Tan is different from Yuan Shao. He did not inherit the arrogance of Yuan Shao. Instead, he acted cautiously and calmly.

He was overjoyed at first, but after thinking about it again, he believed that Tian Feng's concerns were right.

But as a son, he couldn't disobey his father's decision, so even if he had thoughts in his heart, he could only remain silent.

Jiang Qi said, "Don't worry Eldest Son, Qing Province already has 10,000 troops stationed there, plus the 5,000 we brought back, the troops and horses are completely enough."

"We only need to lead troops to control several important roads. As long as Lü Bu dares to lead troops here, he will never come back!"

Yuan Tan nodded, a hint of gloom flashing in his eyes.

"If Zhang Liao's 10,000 troops hadn't gone to Ye City last time, how could Yuan Xi have controlled Ye City until now!"

"I won't make the same mistake again this time!"

Yuan Tan thought secretly in his heart.

He felt extremely annoyed when he thought that he had fallen into the enemy's trick last time and allowed Zhang Liao's 10,000 troops to successfully cross the border from Qing Province.

That was entirely his fault, and it was his unshirkable responsibility. Although Yuan Shao did not punish him for it, he still regarded it as a great shame and humiliation in his heart.

So this time he must guard Qing Province.

We must not let Lü Bu's troops pass!

Yang Province, Shou County.

Among Prison Cell, Emperor Xian of Han, who had already been stripped of Son of Heaven's dragon robe and crown, was locked inside together with Dong Cheng.

At this time, Emperor Xian of Han had a lifeless look on his face, his eyes were aimless and he was leaning against the cold wall, as if he had lost all his energy.

The dignified Son of Heaven was reduced to being imprisoned in Prison Cell and became Prisoner. This was something he had never thought of, and it destroyed his last trace of dignity as Son of Heaven.

His heart was completely dead now.

Seeing Emperor Xian of Han's appearance, Dong Cheng felt angry and couldn't help but curse, "Come Shou County, come Shou County! This is what you will get if you come Shou County!"

"Now not only are the last soldiers and horses gone, but also people have been captured by Lü Bu. You are simply giving him credit for coming to his door!"

"If you had listened to me and gone to Jing Province, how could such a thing have happened!"

"Now tell me! What do you think we should do?"

Dong Cheng wants to strangle Emperor Xian of Han to death.
