Chapter 888: My heart is as high as the sky
In Luoyang City, inside Deyang Hall.
Liu Xie was sitting on the throne, glaring down with a serious look on his face. Beneath him was kneeling down to worship Li Ru.
Li Ru knelt there, motionless.
"Cao Cao is almost here, isn't he?" Liu Xie was extremely excited at this moment.
Li Ru whispered: "Yes, we are almost there. Judging by the time, we will arrive in Luoyang tonight."
Next to Li Ru, two older eunuchs hurriedly congratulated: "Congratulations to your Majesty for finally escaping from the prison and emerging from the sea. From now on, your Majesty will be able to fly high in the sky and the sea!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty! Your Majesty will revitalize the Han Dynasty in the future, and will definitely achieve the great cause of becoming an emperor through the ages, and will be praised by future generations."
"It is truly a great blessing for us to have the honor to follow His Majesty."
Listening to the compliments of these eunuchs, Liu Xie felt a sense of relief in his heart. He took a long breath and said: "Finally, I have waited for this moment... Li Qing, this time
It is all thanks to you that I was able to appease Wang Yun and finally get out of this predicament. When I come back to power, I will forgive your past sins and use your grace."
Although he said this, Liu Xie had already been thinking about killing him to avenge King Hongnong.
Li Ru's face showed a look of gratitude, and he bowed to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty's kindness, Li will never forget it!"
Liu Xie nodded with satisfaction and then said, "Li Qing, what should I do now?"
Li Ru whispered: "Luoyang City is strong. If Cao Cao arrives, I am afraid that Wang Yun and others will be prepared in advance. Your Majesty has an army of trusted men under his command. What I want is that at ten o'clock tonight, your Majesty will let them carry your Majesty's troops."
The edict is to go to the city gate and take over the four gates, so that Cao Cao can be welcomed into the city and Wang Yun will not get in the way."
Liu Xie nodded with satisfaction and said, "That makes sense... Li Qing, how about I leave this matter to you?"
Li Ru smiled bitterly and said: "I also want to do my best for Your Majesty, but Your Majesty also knows my identity. If I start taking action in the city, Wang Yun will definitely notice it."
Liu Xie nodded when he heard this.
It does make some sense.
"Forget it, then you have the right to go back. I will leave these matters to a few of the regular servants."
The eunuchs serving beside him must have been surprised and delighted.
The eunuchs were greedy and eager to expand their power by allowing the emperor to regain authority. Therefore, they were reckless in assisting in this aspect and only wanted to cling to Liu Xie's thigh and fly to the sky.
…
Just before the sun was about to set, Li Ru ordered someone to send a letter to Chen Gong. He himself left the city before the four gates of Luoyang were closed and fled at an extremely fast speed.
It was deep in the night and a curfew had been imposed on the streets of Luoyang. Only then did Chen Gong get the letter written to him by Li Ru.
The moment he saw Li Ru's letter, Chen Gong was stunned.
Even with his wisdom, he never expected that Li Ruxin’s letter contained such content!
Without saying anything, Chen Gong picked up the letter and rushed out of his mansion, heading straight to Wang Yun's mansion.
Wang Yun is getting older, and his mental state has become worse as he gets older recently. He needs to go to bed early.
Chen Gong's arrival late at night undoubtedly affected his rest, but Chen Gong's identity was different from others. Wang Yun had no choice but to see him no matter how much he wanted to see him.
Wang Yun put on his coveralls and came to the hall to see Chen Gong.
When Chen Gong placed the letter on Wang Yun's desk, Wang Yun was also stunned.
As he read the letter, his old hands began to tremble unconsciously.
After a while, I heard him say in a hoarse voice: "Where is Li Ru?"
Chen Gong said hurriedly: "My subordinates have sent people to look for Li Ru's residence, but he seems to have left the city during the day and is missing now."
"Where are the people who monitored him? What did they do!" Wang Yun roared angrily.
Chen Gong was silent after hearing this.
When he was young, Fang heard Chen Gong say: "There are seven people responsible for monitoring Li Ru, but now... none of these seven people can be found. They all seem to have disappeared out of thin air."
Wang Yun was stunned when he heard this.
His clothes were soaked with cold sweat.
For some reason, he suddenly felt that there was a big hand on top of his head and behind him, tightly controlling him, but he couldn't see the appearance of that hand clearly, and he didn't know who the owner of that big hand was.
.
"Ignore him for now... No matter what, Li Ru's words must be treated with caution. Gongtai, I will give you a secret order. You will be in charge of all four gates of Luoyang tonight. If Cao Cao's troops arrive, it is best not to directly
Fight with him, delay him, and I will go to the palace to protect His Majesty... We will hold on for a few days. As long as Liu Boyu and Lu Bu get the news, they will definitely send troops back to help, and then we will have a way out!"
"Don't worry, Taifu, I will take care of it right away."
…
After Chen Gong left, Wang Yun quickly changed into court clothes, and with the support of a group of guards, he went straight to the palace.
Although there were imperial guards guarding the entrance to the palace, and although some of Liu Xie's forces were under his control, most of them were still under Wang Yun's control. Therefore, Wang Yun went straight into the palace and no one dared to stop him.
Liu Xie was in the harem at this time and had quietly put on armor. He wore a dagger on his head, fine armor on his body, and a long sword at his waist. He looked very heroic.
Liu Xie covered his bronze mirror and looked at his outfit with great joy. Then he suddenly pulled out his long sword from his waist with a click, raised it high above his head and pointed to the sky.
The two eunuchs behind Liu Xie were startled by Liu Xie's move. They looked at Liu Xie stupidly, not knowing what his majesty was going to do when he suddenly drew his sword.
Liu Xie turned to look at the two eunuchs with a proud look on his face, and said with a smile: "How is it? Do I have the style of a hero to dominate the world?"
The two eunuchs were initially confused, but now they suddenly understood when they heard Liu Xie ask this question.
"His Majesty is wearing dragon armor, he really has the glory and martial spirit of our great ancestor! It is so radiant that my eyes are so bright that I can't open my eyes because of His Majesty's heroic brilliance."

"Your Majesty is indeed the True Dragon Emperor!"
Liu Xie couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
In his mind, he seemed to have sketched out the grand scene of commanding hundreds of thousands of soldiers, crossing the battlefield and expanding territory.
Just when Liu Xie was proud, he suddenly saw a eunuch rushing into the hall in a hurry and said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! King, King, Taifu Wang has brought people into the palace!"
One sentence immediately brought Liu Xie back to reality from his dream.
"What?" Liu Xie's eyes widened and he looked at the eunuch in disbelief: "Why is he here? You didn't stop him?"
"Who, who dares to stop me!"
The eunuch behind Liu Xie panicked: "Your Majesty, if the Taifu sees you dressed like this, something might be wrong!"
"Why are you still standing there knowing you know it? Remove my armor quickly!"
The eunuch who delivered the message said: "Your Majesty, it's too late... Your Majesty, why don't you hide in the inner room and hide on the bed first? We'll tell Taifu Wang that your Majesty, please go to bed and let him come back tomorrow if he has something to do!"
Liu Xie had no other choice now. He could only take off his pocket and let the eunuch hide it for him.
At the same time, he ran back to the dragon couch wearing armor, lifted the quilt, and hid inside wrapped in fine armor.
Pretending to sleep.
But while hiding in the dragon bed, Liu Xie's hand was still tightly holding a short dagger under his pillow.
…
At the same time, Cao Cao's army had arrived at the eastern suburbs of Luoyang, and the towering outline of Luoyang City could be vaguely seen.
A smile appeared on Cao Cao's lips: "We're finally here."
Cao Ren followed closely beside Cao Cao and said: "General, do you want to send someone into the city to face the Holy Spirit first and explain our intention?"
Cao Cao snorted and said: "What are you reporting? For us now, time is the most precious. If we take away the emperor first, we can take advantage first... Don't hesitate, attack the city directly!"
"promise!"
…
In addition to Cao Cao, Lu Bu's army is now forty or fifty miles north of Luoyang.
“How long until we get to Luoyang!”
"Report to Marquis Wen! If the front army speeds up, they can arrive within half an hour!"
"Urge the three armies to speed up!"
"Marquis Wen, do you want to send someone to Luoyang first to inform the Grand Master?"
