Chapter 1084 Find a way out (Last Part)

,,,,,,,,,,,,

Mi Ying was so scared that he almost collapsed. He thought he had encountered a bandit, and the public security was not good these two days. He also heard that the public security was not good these two days, so he wanted to return to the palace as soon as possible, but he was afraid of meeting bandits. He didn't expect that he would come whatever he was afraid of.

Mi Ying Zhan looked back tremblingly, and saw two men in black standing behind him, staring at him with sharp eyes. Mi Ying suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen these two people when he left the palace. Have they been staring at him?

"Is there anything wrong with the two heroes?" Mi Ying asked in a trembling voice.

"Are you a eunuch in the palace?" asked coldly.

A glimmer of hope suddenly arose in Mi Ying's heart. The real bandit would not ask himself like this, they would leave if they rob money, and they would care about what his identity was? He nodded repeatedly, "I am!"

"Then please come with us!"

Mi Ying was shocked, "Where are you going?"

"Not far away, just follow us."

Two men in black clamped him on the left and right, covered his eyes with black cloth, held Mi Ying hostage and walked towards an alley not far away, crossed the alley, came to another street near the west gate, and then entered an alley, and soon came to a gate.

Mi Ying felt a knife pressing his waist, and he didn't dare to say anything. It was not until this time that he secretly looked up from the gap in his blindfold and faintly saw the words "tall" written on the plaque. It turned out that this was a tavern.

But the two men in black did not go through the main entrance, but entered the backyard of the tavern through the side door, and kept leading him into a cottage without windows, unbuttoned his blindfold and pushed him in.

The room was brightly lit, and there were two men in black clothes standing on each side. There was a black and thin man sitting in the middle, about fifty people. Mi Ying suddenly felt that this person looked familiar. After thinking about it carefully, he suddenly remembered it, pointed at the man and said in surprise: "You are... Li Ganjun!"

This person was Li Fu. His man was staring at Ye Palace and was about to catch a eunuch back. Unexpectedly, he caught Mi Ying by chance. Seeing that the other party knew him, Li Fu also looked at him and suddenly burst into laughter, "It's God's will! Since General Manager Mi has been invited."

Mi Ying was sent to Xiangyang as an envoy of Liu Xie, and it was the line that Li Fu arranged for him. So the two met. Mi Ying suddenly understood that he was caught by the Han army. He was so scared that his legs were weak and he knelt on the ground, "Please join the army to spare your life!"

Li Fu waved his hand and asked his subordinates to retreat, and then said coldly to him: "You promised to serve His Highness the King of Han back then, but in the end there was no news. Do you know you are guilty?"

Mi Ying was so scared that she burst into tears and pleaded: "I haven't forgotten, but I don't know how to serve Your Highness, so I've been here all these years."

Mi Ying dared not say that he had served Cao Cao and betrayed Empress Fu. Although Cao Cao kicked him away in the end and stopped using him, the matter of Empress Fu has always been his heartbreak. However, Li Fu didn't know that Mi Ying was secretly plaguing this palace case. He also remembered that he had never found Mi Ying, so no wonder he had not served and had no task at all. How to serve?

Li Fu's tone also slowed down a lot, and he waved his hand and said, "Mr. Mi, please sit down!"

Mi Ying felt that Li Fu's tone changed and even let him sit down. He secretly said he was lucky, so he sat down tremblingly. Li Fu received the order from Chang'an, allowing him to learn more about the current situation of Liu Xie.

Since Cao Cao strictly prohibited officials from meeting Liu Xie, Liu Xie was actually under house arrest in disguise. He had no idea about his situation from outsiders. Li Fu could only make up for the eunuchs in the palace. In the past two days, he had been sending people to ambush outside the palace and waiting for an opportunity to catch an eunuch back. Unexpectedly, the person caught was Mi Ying, which was really destiny.

Li Fu was in a good mood and asked with a smile: "How is Manager Mi's recent situation?"

Mi Ying sighed, "Although I am nominally the general manager, I am actually not as good as a great eunuch. I have a famous subordinate who is responsible for cleaning up filth in the palace, which is sad to say."

Li Fu was also a little surprised and asked in confusion: "Why did General Manager Mi be so down and out?"

Mi Ying gritted his teeth and said, "It's all the ruthless and unrighteous plague man. I have served him for nearly twenty years. Now I'm old, but he kicked away like a dog."

Li Fu also heard that Mi Ying and Tian Liu Xie had an ambiguous relationship. Now Mi Ying is not as handsome as she used to be. She is only fat and her face is swollen like a pig. No wonder Liu Xie began to dislike him.

Li Fu nodded, "Then if His Highness the King of Han wants to use you now, are you still willing to serve?"

Mi Ying fell to the ground, and he was so excited that he almost cried out, "I'm willing, why would I not?"

Li Fu smiled, asked him to sit down, and asked him again: "Can you leave the palace at will?"

Mi Ying shook her head, "Only the chef can go out of the palace to buy ingredients. I have a good relationship with the chef. Today he was sick, so I wore his bronze medal and left the palace for him."

"What are you doing when you leave the palace at night?" Li Fu was so sophisticated that he could immediately hear the grammatical problem in the other party's words.

Mi Ying was stunned for a moment, and he lowered his head and had to tell the truth: "To be honest with Li Zongjun, I came out to sell candlesticks. I was cheated by the palace people and owed a lot of debts. In desperation, I had to steal the things in the palace and sold them for money. Tomorrow is the day to settle the interest. If the interest is not paid, I will be beaten to death by the evil slaves in the palace. But now I only have five cents, what should I do tomorrow?"

Speaking of the sadness, Mi Ying almost started to cry. Li Fu was incredible to hear it. For a while, he sighed: "The Palace of Heaven is so desolate?"

"What heaven, no one has treated him that day. If it weren't for the two nobles Cao, he wouldn't even be able to eat. We call him plagues and waste in private. Who among the world wouldn't know that the real Han Dynasty is in Chang'an?"

"Does Liu Xie think so?"

"He?" Mi Ying sneered, "He probably wanted to peel the King of Han and eat all the flesh of the King of Han."

"What are you talking nonsense?" Li Fu scolded unhappily.

Only then did Mi Ying realize that he had let go of the words and quoted Liu Xie's original words. He was so scared that he fell to the ground again and kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Li Fu also knew that he was unintentional, so he said to him: "I may be able to help you, but you must serve the King of Han. What I want you to do, you must not delay it at all, otherwise I will cut you into pieces!"

Mi Ying was both afraid and grateful, and she burst into tears and snot, and she kowtowed, Li Fuling said, "Give fifty taels of gold!"

Mi Yingyidai, fifty taels of gold in Ye could be worth 50,000 yuan. Although he wanted it very much, he knew that if so much gold was taken into the palace, he would inevitably be snatched away by all the evil slaves. He whispered: "Just five taels are enough."

Li Fu looked at him in surprise. The eunuch Mi, who had always been greedy for money, became polite. Li Fu smiled and said, "You can use gold to bribe some people to facilitate your tasks in the future. If it is not enough, I will give it to you again."

"Yes! I understand." At this time, Mi Ying suddenly thought about it, and he thought that he could hide the gold there.

In Zhong Yao's study, Zhong Yao and Chen Qun were sitting opposite each other and drinking. A few plates of side dishes were placed on the small table, and two bottles of wine were warmed in the copper wine bottle next to it. At present, the State of Wei is still implementing the prohibition of alcohol, but it is not as strict as before. Many senior officials are drinking at home.

Zhong Yao also hid more than a dozen bottles of good wine in his mansion. It is rare to take it out and drink it today. Chen Qun is Xun Yu's son-in-law. Although he is not Cao Zhi's faction, he himself prefers Cao Zhi. It was under his persuasion that Cao Cao decided to transfer Cao Zhi back to Yedu. This incident made Cao Pi hate him to the core.

Cao Cao's serious illness made Chen Qun feel bad. After drinking a few more glasses of wine tonight, he became a little disobedient. He picked up the glass of wine and drank it all. He said with a drink: "I didn't expect that Mr. Wei was so sick. Today I asked the imperial doctor in Tongque Palace quietly. Although he refused, he couldn't resist me in the end. He had to hint to me that the last time Mr. Wei recovered was not a real recovery, but just a reflection of the future. This time Mr. Wei was old again, and it was probably not long before he could."

Zhong Yao was shocked and asked quickly: "When does this 'non-long' mean?"

"I can't explain it clearly, but I personally infer that it will only last one year at most!"

The two of them stopped talking. They thought that they were the same thing. Once Duke Wei passed away and Cao Pi succeeded to the throne, would they have a good end? At this time, Chen Qun sighed and asked, "Duke Zhong, do you think Duke still has a chance to get to power?"

Zhong Yao shook his head, "If Mr. Wei is healthy, he may still have hope, but Mr. Wei is so weak and has no time to protect himself, he will never consider establishing a new heir. Even if he likes him, he will not do anything to shake the foundation of the country."

Chen Qun was speechless. Zhong Yao and Xun You had a close friendship with Chen Qun's father Chen Ji. Chen Qun was also a son-in-law of the Xun family. It was these two relationships that made Zhong Yao particularly concerned about Chen Qun.

Zhong Yao understood Chen Qun's concerns. He was the chief censor and had great power. Once Cao Pi came to power, he would be the first to attack Chen Qun. After pondering for a moment, Zhong Yao slowly said: "I will invite my nephew to come and drink tonight. Actually, I want to take this opportunity to persuade my nephew to go to the Han Dynasty to join the government and participate in the great cause of restoring the Han Dynasty, and not to be humiliated by our ancestors."

Perhaps Chen Qun drank a few more drinks, he blurted out, "Why doesn't Mr. Zhong serve as a man?"

After saying that, he realized that he had made a mistake and quickly apologized, "Chen Qun has drunk too much and speaks without saying anything. Don't blame Mr. Zhong!"

Zhong Yao sighed slightly, "I am not hiding it from this nephew. I went to Jiaozhou last year. When I came back, I went to Han State to have a deep conversation with the King of Han. He once promised me the position of Secretary of the Central Committee and became the prime minister."

Chen Qun was stunned. Liu Jing actually valued Zhong Yao so much. He asked anxiously: "Why did Mr. Zhong refuse?"

"It's hard to cure favors!"

Zhong Yao smiled bitterly and said, "I was an envoy at that time, how could I agree? After I came back, Cao Pi instructed Yang Tian to impeach me for an affair with the Han Dynasty and found evidence. I really couldn't explain clearly. If Duke Wei was serious, I could be sentenced to an affair with the Han Dynasty. It would be fine if Duke Wei suppressed the impeachment and ignored it. He said publicly that Yuan Chang would never let me down! In this way, how could I betray him and go to the Han Dynasty again?"

Chen Qun also sighed with emotion: "This has ruined Mr. Zhong's future."

"There is no mistake or mistake between the two countries. Wei State is not bad either. It is just that after the throne, we must eliminate dissidents. We cannot escape the net. I am a little better. He dare not do too much, but it is hard to say a good nephew, so I advise the nephew to retreat early and not to die in prison unjustly."

Chen Qun knew that Zhong Yao was right, and he had considered it repeatedly in the past two years. He had been on missions to the Han Kingdom many times, and Liu Jing valued him, especially hoped that he would preside over the formulation of the new Han law. How could Chen Qun not be moved? But like Zhong Yao, he was also grateful to Cao Cao for his kindness and could not bear to betray him.

But now that Duke Wei is not having too many days, his danger is approaching day by day, especially today Cao Pi's coldness towards him made him feel a chill, and there is not much time left for him. If Zhong Yao does not persuade him tonight, he might still be hesitant, but it was Zhong Yao's persuasion that made him finally make up his mind. Even Zhong Yao advised him to leave, so what else could he hesitate?

He nodded slowly, "Mr. Zhong is right, I should have made a difference."
