In the Yedu Palace, a tall and dark-skinned eunuch was walking in a hurry, passing through a long corridor, about to enter the inner palace, but unexpectedly, one person happened to walk out of it. The two of them couldn't hold their feet and collided heavily. With a whisper, the eunuch who came out of the inner palace was knocked to the ground.

The eunuch who fell to the ground was white and fat, with a handsome appearance, like a woman. It was Mi Ying, the confidant eunuch of Emperor Liu Xie of Han. He covered his chest and cursed: "Which bastard is not eye-catching? He hits our chest. Who doesn't help us get up?"

The black and thin eunuch hurriedly helped him up and apologized repeatedly, "It turns out that it is General Manager Ma, I'm rude. I apologize to the General Manager."

Mi Ying recognized the black and thin eunuch in front of him. He was the confidant eunuch Mu Shun of Queen Fu, and was also the opponent who competed for power in the palace with him. His face suddenly sank and said coldly: "Oh, it's General Manager Mu. Why are you leaving so urgently?"

Mu Shun felt uncomfortable and forced a smile and said, "Mr. Fu is sick. The Empress ordered me to visit the emperor. She was rushing back. Unexpectedly, she bumped into Eunuch Mi. I'm sorry."

He gave another salute and apologized. Mi Ying laughed dryly and said, "I just met Mr. Fu a few days ago. I was in good health, so why did I fall ill?"

"Who can expect that people will have good fortune and good fortune every day?"

"So that's the case, so I won't delay General Mu, please."

Mu Shun bowed to him and hurried to the inner palace with a few little eunuchs. Mi Ying looked at his back and felt a little confused. The Prime Minister was not in Yedu, and Fu Wan fell ill. Is it such a coincidence?"

He winked at a confidant eunuch and whispered: "Go and find out the news and see what's going on."

The little eunuch turned around and ran away, and then Mi Ying walked towards the imperial study room of the front palace.

Mushun hurried to Queen Fu's living hall. At this time, Queen Fu was standing in front of the parrot stand to feed a green budgie. This was her favorite pet. She had been with her for ten years. When she heard the familiar footsteps, Queen Fu suddenly turned around and saw Mushun kneeling behind her.

"You all go out"

Queen Fu coldly sent out all the palace maids, and then asked nervously: "Is there any news?"

Mu Shun took off his hat and took out a note from his hair bun and presented it to Queen Fu, "The father-in-law said everything in the letter."

Queen Fu opened the letter and looked at it. A trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. She put the letter in close proximity and nodded to Mu Shun, "You are very loyal, and there must be no leakage of this matter."

"Old slave understands"

Empress Fu could not help but feel joy in her heart, and left the hall and sat on the chariot and headed towards the imperial study room of the emperor. This was her secret discussion with her husband Liu Xie, taking advantage of Cao Cao's opportunity to go to Guanzhong to quietly build power, which was mainly conducive to the relationship between Empress Fu's father and father-in-law Fu Wan.

Fu Wan did not disappoint his daughter and son-in-law's expectations, and had privately won over the real power of famous local people. Together with his own troops in the manor, they had already mastered 10,000 troops. However, Fu Wan said in the letter that the army was not trained enough and it would take several months to one year of training. When Cao Cao went to war next time, it would be the time to start.

Soon, Emperor Fu later went to Liu Xie's imperial study. In fact, Liu Xie had no real power. He could read some memorials, but they were all selected by the Prime Minister's Office, and they were just copied copies. The matters in the memorials had been executed.

For some major events that must be approved by the emperor, he can only follow the instructions of the Prime Minister's Office, agree or disagree. If he dares to disagree, then his emperor will be treated as the end and will soon die of illness, and Cao Cao will establish a new emperor.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with Empress Fu appearing in the emperor's imperial study, it is just that it is not suitable for etiquette and has nothing to do with interference in politics.

Walking to the study, Queen Fu vaguely heard the disgusting laughter of eunuch Mi Ying. Her face sank. She had heard that her husband and this eunuch were too close. Some disgusting things happened, but there was no evidence. Today, she heard with her own ear that Mi Ying actually dared to laugh loudly in the imperial study room. What does this mean?

Queen Fu suddenly became angry, but she still held back her anger, but she snorted heavily, and said to the two guards: "Go and report to the Lord, I have something to do to see him."

The guards hurriedly walked to the door and reported loudly: "The Empress's Message"

Mi Ying's laughter in the imperial study stopped abruptly. After a moment, Mi Ying walked out in a panic, bowed forward, and said with a flattering smile: "The Empress rarely comes to the imperial study. Why are you free today?"

Before he finished speaking, Queen Fu was already furious and slapped him hard, "Is this the way a palace slave talked to me?"

Mi Ying was stunned. He reacted for a while and knelt down and slapped himself in the face, "I'm rude, I'm damn."

Why did Queen Fu glar at him hatefully, "Get out of here?"

Mi Ying was so scared that he rolled out and crawled out. Queen Fu rushed into her husband's imperial study angrily.

At the end of the corridor, a large cylinder showed a pair of vicious eyes. He gritted his teeth and whispered to himself: "Bitch, I want you to die in my hands."

...........

In the imperial study room, Liu Xie looked a little embarrassed. He didn't expect that the queen would come to the imperial study room in person. He forced a smile and said, "How could the queen come to my imperial study room today?"

Queen Fu did not turn against her husband. She walked a few steps in the imperial study room, glanced at the few little eunuchs next to her, and looked back at Liu Xie, "Has the Lord forgotten what we said a few days ago?"

Liu Xie changed his mind and suddenly realized it. He quickly waved his hands to several young eunuchs, "You all retreat."

Several young eunuchs retreated, and then Empress Fu took out her father's letter and handed it to Liu Xie, "This is the letter from the father-in-law, which contains the content that His Majesty cares about."

Liu Xie was excited and almost grabbed the letter. He sat at the table and read it carefully. He looked at it all over, but he didn't want to let go of every word on it. Finally, he was so excited that he couldn't sit still. He walked back and forth in the room with the letter. He stopped and couldn't help but look at the letter. Fu Wan said in the letter that he had mastered tens of thousands of soldiers.

This is a strength that Liu Xie has never had before. How could he not be ecstatic? Not long ago, he received news that Cao Cao actually promised to let Liu Jing ascend the throne and become emperor during the Battle of Chibi. Although this was just a temptation, Cao Cao's statement still shocked Liu Xie.

This shows that Cao Cao already had the intention of deposing him. Even without Liu Jing, Cao Cao would have supported other young emperors to ascend the throne. At that time, he could not even be a puppet emperor.

It was the unprecedented crisis that forced Liu Xie to plan to protect himself. The most effective way was to eradicate Cao Cao and let him take over the power. Unfortunately, most of the ministers in the court were Cao Cao's confidants, and some ministers who supported the royal family did not dare to say anything because they were afraid of Cao Cao's tyranny.

Liu Xie had no choice but to ask for help from the royal relatives. After his plea, Empress Fu finally convinced her father Fu Wan to help. He and Fu Wan had discussed the matter for the army several times, but they did not expect that they would have a reply so soon and actually had a 10,000 army, which made Liu Xie so excited that he was a little disobedient.

Seeing that her husband was a little disobedient, Queen Fu couldn't help but feel a little worried, so she whispered: "Master, this matter is of great importance. Only you and I can know it. Don't disclose it to other close servants."

Empress Fu is actually referring to Mi Ying. Her husband is close to him. Everyone in the palace knows that how could Cao Cao not know? If Cao Cao uses Mi Ying to monitor her husband, the consequences will be unimaginable. But Empress Fu also knows that there is no evidence now, and accusing Mi Ying will anger her husband. She can only remind her implicitly.

Liu Xie's face felt a little hot. He heard the queen's meaning and laughed dryly: "Don't worry, queen, I will be able to grasp the right position."

At this time, a guard reported outside the door: "Shizhong Xun asked to see the emperor."

Empress Fu and Liu Xie were stunned. Few ministers came to the palace to meet him. Why did Xun Yu come? Queen Fu hurriedly said, "That I will leave?"

Liu Xie nodded, "Go, Queen, let's discuss it in detail in the evening."

Queen Fu left, Liu Xie sat back to his seat and ordered: "Shi Zhong Xuanxun's meeting"

"The emperor has an order to Xuan Xun Shizhong's visit"

The guards continued to convey the order loudly. Soon, Xun Yu, wearing a purple robe and a flat crown, hurried into the imperial study. Xun Yu had already changed from a staff member of Cao Cao to a court minister, and was appointed as the Minister of the Court, and was ranked among the Duke. Xun Yu was an honest official, upright and selfless, and was praised by the court.

More importantly, Xun Yu was a royalist and loyal to the Han Dynasty. Cao Cao was granted the title of Duke of Wei. When he was given Jiuxi, Xun Yu strongly opposed it. He believed that Cao Cao had already violated the ethics of the ministers. Before Cao Cao, the only one who received Jiuxi was Wang Mang. Cao Cao compared himself to Wang Mang, which made Xun Yu feel sad.

Xun Yu knelt down and kowtowed, "My minister Xun Yu meets my emperor, I wish you a long life."

"Xun Aiqing is free from courtesy"

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xun Yu sat upright. The reason why he came to see Liu Xie today was because there was a rumor in the court recently that the emperor wanted to use Liu Jing's Northern Expedition to make a secret and issued an order to deprive Liu Jing of his title. If the emperor did this, the prime minister might not object, and it might come true.

But Xun Yu was very anxious. He knew that the emperor did this out of selfishness and felt that Liu Jing threatened his throne, but in this way, it would greatly damage the emperor's prestige among the gentry, and instead weaken the influence of the Han Dynasty, which was already declining.

This is a consequence that Xun Yu did not want to see. The emperor obviously did not know Liu Jing's influence among the northern aristocratic families. Now even the prime minister dared not to abolish Liu Jing's title. If the emperor wanted to do this, Prime Minister Cao would naturally be unable to seek it.

Xun Yu thought about it again, but finally couldn't sit still. He would rather risk Cao Cao's dissatisfaction with him than persuade the emperor to see the situation clearly and not do stupid things.

"I have heard a rumor recently that the emperor is preparing to issue an order to remove the title of Liu Jing, the governor of Jingzhou. I wonder if this matter is just a rumor."

When Liu Xie saw Xun Yu talking about Liu Jing, he felt a little unhappy and said coldly: "Liu Jing did not follow the order and sent troops to Bashu without authorization. This is a serious crime. However, he used the excuse that he sent troops to stabilize the situation in Yizhou because of civil strife in Yizhou. It would be fine, but what was the matter when he was expeditioning Guanzhong in the north? Guanzhong was the place where the Han Dynasty was the dragon of my great Han Dynasty. What did he mean if he wanted to occupy it without authorization? If he did not give a clear statement, I would punish him severely."
