Jia Xu no longer had the previous idea of "helping Yuan Shao if Son of Heaven cannot help" and concluded that Yuan Shao could not conquer the world.

Today's Yuan Benchu gave him a completely different impression than when he first attacked Dong Zhuo, as if he were two different people.

"Son of Heaven If you can't help, then just leave."

Jia Xu wandered towards Back Courtyard. Although he liked Wealth and Honor, he cherished his wealth and life even more.

Chapter 81 Liu Xie Oh Liu Xie, how could you be so depraved!

Imperial Palace, within a certain Side Hall.

Liu Xie woke up on a large Dragon Bed.

After rubbing his eyes and taking away the arm on his chest, he sat up, yawned and stretched.

And his actions also woke up several Beautys on the bed. These Beautys were only wearing gauze, with large areas of skin exposed.

"Your Majesty~Why are you up so early? Why don't you sleep a little longer~"

A Beauty turned over and lay on Liu Xie's lap, begging pitifully.

At the same time, the other two Beauty also stood up, one on the left and the other on the right, holding Liu Xie's arms. One of them said coquettishly, "Yes Your Majesty, let's go later."

However, Liu Xie was unmoved and said calmly, "Change my clothes for me."

"Yes...Your Majesty."

When the three Beauty saw this, they immediately did not dare to be presumptuous anymore, calmed down their expressions, and began to help Liu Xie wash and dress neatly.

Then they all respectfully sent Liu Xie away.

After leaving Side Hall, Liu Xie took a look at the bright sunshine and clear weather outside, took a deep breath, and felt refreshed.

Then he looked back at the Side Hall behind him, rubbed his waist, and couldn't help but mutter in a low voice, "It's better to do less in the future. If this goes on, my waist will really be unbearable."

These three Beauty were rewarded to him by Yuan Shao after he reported Liu Bei last time. They have always been kept in the Side Hall, and he comes to stay overnight from time to time.

But I can only say that the color is worthy of a bone-scraping steel knife.

These Beautys are all ingenious, eloquent, unparalleled in talents, and most importantly, they are obedient and well-behaved.

If this continues, his health will probably get worse and worse.

Thinking of this, Liu Xie felt even more regretful and condemned himself deeply in his heart. "Liu Xie, Liu Xie, how could you be so depraved!"

"Beauty will only destroy your ambition and fall into the gentle land designed by Yuan Shao. You can't be fooled by him anymore!"

Liu Xie made up his mind not to come here again within a week.

As for a week later... Zhen Mi menstruation will be over in a week.

Originally, Zhen Mi was supposed to go to bed the day after the Imperial Palace arrived, but by chance, her period suddenly came, so she had to give it up.

"Although these three Beauty are beautiful, they pale in comparison to Zhen Mi. They are not on the same level at all."

Liu Xie recalled Zhen Mi's beautiful face and couldn't help but sigh.

Once upon a time, there was no water in the sea, but it was nothing but clouds except Wushan.

As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison. After seeing the beauty of Zhen Mi, and looking at these three Beauty, it is hard to catch the eye.

But saying this seems a bit heartless...

Liu Xie shook his head, driving all these messy thoughts out of his mind, and planned to eat something to fill his stomach first.

"I don't know how Guo Jia is trying to win over Jia Xu."

Jia Xu is not someone easy to fool at first glance, and according to historical descriptions, this guy is also an egoist.

Moreover, now Yuan Shao attaches so much importance to Jia Xu, and even asked him for an edict to canonize him as Minister of the Imperial Clan, ranking Nine Ministers. In this case, the chance of Guo Jia succeeding in wooing Jia Xu is really not high.

While thinking about this, Liu Xie walked and came inside Imperial Garden unknowingly.

A beautiful figure in Imperial Garden attracted his attention.

"Zhen Mi?"

Although it is almost June, the flowers in Imperial Garden are still blooming luxuriantly and beautifully.

Zhen Mi is wearing a light blue underskirt today, lined with a white jade palace skirt, and a piece of exquisite lake blue brocade belt tied around her slim waist.

At this time, she was standing in front of the flowers, holding a brush and drawing something on the paper on Table, looking very focused.

"What is she doing here?"

Liu Xie was curious, so he walked over.

Zhen Mi also noticed the arrival of Liu Xie, so he put down the brush in his hand, turned around and saluted Liu Xie: "Concubine, please see Your Majesty."

"Plain body."

Liu Xie raised his hand slightly, then turned his gaze to Table, and said with a smile, "Can you still paint?"

There is drawing paper spread out on Table, and there are several Flowers flowers that have not yet been painted on it, which is the handiwork of Zhen Mi.

Zhen Mi said somewhat impressively, "I have been fond of calligraphy and painting since I was a child. The weather is beautiful today. I saw the flowers in the garden were blooming beautifully, so I started to write because my hands were itchy."

"The poor skills made Your Majesty laugh."

Liu Xie heard this and reached out to pick up Zhen Mi's painting and look at it carefully.

To be fair, Zhen Mi's painting skills are pretty good.

However, the paper quality of this era was really average, and the drawing results were really unsatisfactory.

"The ink you use with your pen is too thick."

Liu Xie looked at it for a while and then commented.

Zhen Mi was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and a trace of confusion flashed in her beautiful eyes. Before she could react, Liu Xie continued to comment.

"Moreover, the ink output of the brush is relatively large. When drawing Flowers, you should simply outline and draw the divine shape with the tip of the pen. There is no need for heavy ink and color, which will look tacky."

"You see, there is too much ink rendering here. The whole flower looks too bloated and has no sense of beauty."

Liu Xie talked eloquently and commented on the shortcomings of Zhen Mi's paintings.

This is not that he is talking nonsense, he is a little bit artistic, has signed up for many interest classes, and is quite good at painting. It's just that Chinese painting needs time to settle, and he is better at Sketching.

"Your Majesty also knows how to draw?"

Zhen Mi obviously didn't expect this and was a little surprised.

Liu Xie smiled and said, "I understand a little, I understand a little."

That's just the level of winning the city's first prize.

Zhen Mi's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this. After hesitating for a moment, he bit his lips and asked carefully, "Then...Your Majesty can you teach me a lesson?"

She learned how to draw by herself, and just after hearing those few comments from Liu Xie, she knew that he must be very good at it.

That's why I couldn't help but ask this question.

"Well... just wait a moment, I'll have someone prepare it."

Liu Xie thought for a while, called Eunuch, and then whispered a few instructions to him, who quickly left respectfully.

After a while, he came back with a small bowl.

"This is..."

Zhen Mi glanced at the contents of the bowl and felt even more confused.

Your Majesty What is this going to do?

Chapter 82: Flirt and run away

"Your Majesty, the charcoal you requested is here." Eunuch came over respectfully holding a small bowl.

What is placed in the small bowl is charcoal.

Liu Xie casually took out a piece of charcoal of suitable size, then bent down to grind it on the ground, and soon sharpened one end.

Then he raised his head and said to Zhen Mi, "Stand still."

"Ah... yes, Your Majesty."

Although Zhen Mi didn't understand what Liu Xie was going to do, he still obeyed the instructions and stood there without daring to move.

Then she saw Liu Xie casually pull out a piece of drawing paper and lay it flat on the table. He started drawing with a charcoal pencil and looked up at her from time to time.

"Your Majesty Are you painting me? Can charcoal be used for painting?"

Zhen Mi blinked his eyes, full of curiosity.

She had heard that some poor scholars would use charcoal as a pen to practice calligraphy, but she had never heard that charcoal could be used for painting.

You must know that charcoal is fragile and easily sheds dust, so it can be used to practice calligraphy, but such delicate things as painting cannot be done with charcoal.

Not long after, Liu Xie threw away the charcoal pen in his hand, took the brocade handkerchief from Eunuch, wiped his hands, and said to Zhen Mi, "Okay, how about you come and take a look?"

So Zhen Mi walked over with doubts. When she saw the painting Liu Xie looked at on the table, she couldn't help but cover her mouth, and her beautiful eyes were filled with disbelief!

"How could..."

Zhen Mi Shock is amazing at this moment, because Liu Xie actually used charcoal to draw her appearance!

Although there is only the upper body, and some details are rough, her appearance, expression and even eyes are exactly the same, and the whole person stands out on the paper.

It's simply a stroke of genius!

Zhen Mi couldn't help but pick up the drawing paper and look at it over and over again. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the artistry was really amazing. Not only did he look similar in form, but he also looked similar in spirit!

However, Liu Xie shook his head and sighed, "I haven't painted for a long time, and my skills have deteriorated too much. I'd better tear up this painting to avoid embarrassment."

As he spoke, he reached out and took the painting.

"No!"

Zhen Mi's beauty suddenly turned pale, and he no longer cared about etiquette. He avoided Liu Xie's extended hand and hid the drawing paper behind his back.
