When Dong Guozhang died, Concubine Dong was undoubtedly the saddest.
Liu Xie was even worried that Cao Cao would break into the palace and kill even Concubine Dong. Fortunately, Cao Cao had not reached this point yet, but most of the officials and ministers involved in the matter were dead.
After Fu's death, Queen Fu's father was reminded by Sima Fang and did not get involved. Therefore, it is not known how long he can live while he is still alive.
If Cao Cao wants to further gain power, he must kill the ministers again. After defeating them, there is still danger.
"Please, Your Majesty, help my father get revenge."
Concubine Dong cried and said.
Liu Xie also wanted to take revenge. He didn't even want Dong Cheng and others to die. He said helplessly: "How can I take revenge now? Even those two thousand feather forest guards were taken away by Cao Cao!"
If he had this ability, he would have repaid it long ago.
When Concubine Dong heard this, she cried bitterly again.
Liu Xie sat helplessly on the couch and sighed: "I am incompetent. I cannot protect you, nor can I protect the ministers of the DPRK. I..."
He also wanted to blame himself and scold himself a few times.
But now, he doesn't even know what to scold himself, he thinks he is too useless.
"This is not your Majesty's fault!"
Empress Fu shook her head and said: "That Cao thief is too powerful. This is the case in these troubled times, alas..."
She sighed.
As for Concubine Dong, she could only cry.
I don't know how miserable I cried, but it was useless to cry. There was no way to take revenge. I could only be trapped in the deep palace, unable to do anything.
"What should I do to reverse the situation?"
Liu Xie said helplessly.
Empress Fu said: "Your Majesty, my father is still alive now. He should not be implicated. He must have a way. In addition, Uncle Liu Huang has escaped. He will also be outside, leading all the heroes in the world to fight back to Xudu and kill the Cao thieves. , to welcome His Majesty."
Liu Xie smiled bitterly, having understood the current situation in the world, and said with a bitter smile: "The queen thinks that the next person to greet me is a loyal minister? From Dong Zhuo to Cao Cao, who is a loyal minister?"
After hearing this, Queen Fu had nothing to say.
It seems that the only loyal ministers of the Han Dynasty are left, those who were killed by the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government.
The rest are either afraid of Cao Cao or want to be the next Cao Cao, even if Yuan Shao comes.
Maybe Liu Bei is different.
Liu Xie believes that he can put his hope in Liu Bei, and it should be possible!
If it's gone, it's really gone.
In the palace, there was a gloomy atmosphere.
Both the emperor and his concubines were all anxious and uneasy, fearing that Cao Cao would liquidate her to the end, and even Concubine Dong, who was pregnant with a child, would not let go.
After a night of turmoil, Xudu City was temporarily calmed down.
But the people in the city, just like Liu Xie in the palace, were frightened and uneasy. Passers-by were walking in a hurry, and some people gathered in groups to discuss in low voices what happened last night.
Sima Lang and Sima Yi walked outside and saw that all the corpses on the ground had been taken away. The traces of the fighting on the street seemed to have been wiped away, but they were not completely wiped away.
Some residual blood stains and traces of swords can be seen everywhere.
"The turmoil last night was really terrible!"
Sima Lang said calmly: "I heard that the capital of Chendu was captured by Zhang Fei. Cao Sikong invited His Majesty to come out to negotiate with Liu Bei. The two sides gave up. Liu Bei left and Chen Duzhi was saved. Unfortunately... we couldn't go out last night. Can’t see that.”
Sima Yi said: "Brother, if we go out, I'm afraid even the Sima family will be gone today. I can secretly give so many troops, slaves, refugees, etc., which is the limit. My father's idea, if someone in the city resists, you can Give a little support to those who resist, but we must preserve our own strength."
Their voices were very soft and low.
Only they could hear it. The pedestrians passing by were walking in a hurry and couldn't hear what was said.
"Zhongda is right!"
Sima Lang nodded and asked, "Can Zhongda guess what Cao Sikong will do next?"
Sima Yi thought for a while and said: "The ministers that Cao Sikong killed were all from aristocratic families. I guess there will be opposition from many aristocratic families. Some people will boycott the Cao family. He must be very worried about this matter. As for Uncle Liu Huang, what will happen to him?" How to do it……"
He paused for a while and then said: "Uncle Liu Huang will not give up once he escapes, and he will definitely fight back. I believe that Dong Guozhang has given the imperial edict to Liu Huang, and Cao Sikong is ready to fight Yuan Shao." .”
Sima Lang shook his head and smiled: "Can Cao Sikong beat Yuan Shao?"
"Yuan Shu thought so at the beginning."
Sima Yi said calmly: "Although Yuan Shu's death was not entirely due to Cao Sikong, most of the reasons were still Cao Sikong. In addition... the Cao Sikong now is not the Cao Sikong during Yuan Shu's arrogance."
Today's Cao Cao's strength has increased, and they can see it with their naked eyes.
The territory occupied is also increasing.
Although the troops and supplies are not as strong as Yuan Shao's, they are not without the strength to fight. You must know that the decisive factors on the battlefield are not necessarily the troops, supplies, but also strategies.
Cao Cao had many advisers around him, including Chen Duzhi.
The one Sima Yi feared the most was Chen Zhou. He continued: "In this world, there are many heroes competing for the deer. It is not yet known who will win the deer, but I guess Yuan Shao will not be the last one to win the deer. Sooner or later, all the northern Han Dynasty will fall into the hands of Cao Cao."
Sima Lang didn't know why Sima Yi had such an opinion.
But upon closer inspection, Cao Cao's current development situation is becoming more and more powerful and prosperous. I think Sima Yi's judgment should be based on this.
"Who will get this deer?"
Sima Lang said again.
Sima Yi suddenly smiled and said: "I don't know, after all, the world is in chaos. It's so chaotic now. Everything is possible. Maybe our Sima family will be the one to get the deer in the end."
Hearing this, the two brothers laughed for a long time.
"In this case, Zhongda can only tell me. If others hear it, our Sima family will be killed."
Sima Lang reminded.
Sima Yi nodded slightly and said, "I understand."
In the city, the haze from last night has not completely dissipated.
The two Sima brothers walked further and further away in the haze. They came out just to see what was going on. After seeing clearly, they naturally went home.
The fear of ordinary people has nothing to do with aristocratic families.
Sima Yi concluded that Cao Cao would not dare to touch the noble family again in the short term, although in the future, the noble family might resist Cao Cao and oppose Cao Cao's massacre of the ministers.
Even, smear Cao Cao's reputation.
But Cao Cao still did not dare to touch the family.
In this era, the aristocratic family is a very unique existence. It can be so unique that it surpasses a dynasty.
"Let's go back!"
Sima Yi said again.
Not long after they left, several young men appeared on the street.
It was Xia Houmao and the others.
"Chen Zhou actually survived last night."
The first person to speak was Xiahou Ba, who said with an unhappy face.
They became increasingly unhappy with Chen Zhou.
Because of pig raising and forging, they were often beaten wildly by their father at home. Every time they were spanked, their buttocks were bruised and their skin was torn.
