The young emperor raised his hand, "Liu Yishi's flat body!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Liu Cheng shouted again and stood up.

The young emperor asked: "Liu Yishi, you made great contributions to saving the chariot yesterday. Have you thought about what reward you want?"

Liu Cheng asked back: "I wonder what Your Majesty can reward the people?"

Many civil and military ministers laughed when they saw Liu Cheng asking this question. Some people were very unhappy and thought that he should not ask this question, and should be more humble. He just accepted what the emperor rewarded.

Liu Xie, the King of Chenliu, who was standing near the Shaodi, said in a tender voice: "Official position, title, property, land and slave, Liu Zhuangshi can choose from these. As long as Liu Zhuangshi can choose, the emperor's brother can afford it!"

Liu Cheng immediately said: "Then I'd better choose to be an official!"

"Hahaha..." The civil and military ministers in the court burst into laughter. They had never seen such an interesting person before. They even asked the emperor to ask for an official position, and they didn't look embarrassed when they said this.

When Liu Cheng saw that everyone laughed, he suddenly became a little "angry". He stared at these people and said angrily: "Why are you laughing at? Your Majesty wants to reward me, and King Chenliu asked me to choose. What's wrong with me choosing an official? If you don't want to be a lie, why are you still standing here?"

When the ministers saw that he had never seen the world, they didn't care about him, and thought he was a slutty man and suddenly gained great benefits and could not adapt. The Wei Wei Wei Yang Biao stood up and bowed to the young emperor and said, "I will tell you, since Liu Cheng wants to be an official, I will reward him with an official position. There are some vacancy in the Henan Yin Mansion. Let him be a small official first to learn the way of becoming an official. If you have talent, it will not be too late to be promoted!"

The young emperor was about to agree, and Empress Dowager He, who was sitting beside him, went over and whispered: "Bian'er, you saw it last night. Liu Cheng's martial arts skills are good and he is quite brave. Now we have no credible or useful people in the middle. In and outside the palace, we are either Dong Zhuo's soldiers or people from the aristocratic family, and some fences are swaying. Your second uncle is watched by the aristocratic family and cannot escape. Apart from Min Gong, there is no one else who can use the Ai family and you. If we don't cultivate some confidants, how can we save ourselves next? The Ai family thinks that Liu Cheng can be left as the General of the Yulin Central Army and protect us mother and son! Also, Liu Xie's boy is not young, but he is actually very smart, so he should prevent him from winning over Liu Cheng!"

Liu Bian himself had no idea, was weak in character, and was the suggestion of his mother's queen. He immediately agreed and said to his ministers and Liu Cheng: "Liu Cheng, I saw that you have good martial arts skills yesterday and there was a lack of effective guards in the palace. You will stay in the palace to protect my and mother's queen's security. I will confer you the title of Yulin Central Army General, command the Yulin Guard, and be awarded the title of Anyi Bo, and give you ten pieces of brocade and a hundred gold!" After that, he got up and walked down Danbi.

The eunuch Pan Yin immediately shouted: "Retreat the court--"

From a civilian, some ministers wanted to object, but at this time the emperor had already stood up and left, so they could only bow and shout, "Greatly send him your Majesty!"

Liu Cheng was a little stunned. This is wrong. I haven't agreed yet! When he saw Dong Zhuo again, the tampered goods did not object. He thought about it and immediately understood that Dong Zhuo now only had a few thousand soldiers and horses. Compared with the eight schools in Xiyuan, the city gate lieutenant headquarters and some northern troops, he was somewhat weak. Moreover, the imperial guards guarding the palace had been killed and dispersed by Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Wang Kuang and others yesterday, and countless casualties were killed and injured. Now there are probably only a few soldiers left in the palace. Although the position of the General of the Yulin Central Army is not low, the Yulin Army was killed and dispersed last night. Now he is a commander with no bodyguard leader under his command.

Liu Cheng came back and slapped himself in the face, cursing in his heart, but he still couldn't get rid of his bodyguard's identity!

The ministers walked away in a blink of an eye. Liu Cheng was still in a daze. A eunuch walked over and said, "General Liu, the Empress Dowager is welcome!"

"Empress Dowager?" Liu Cheng remembered the scene when Empress Dowager He was muttering in Liu Bian's ear just now, and guessed that Liu Bian's reward to him was probably Empress Dowager He's idea. It seems that Empress Dowager He also understands that the situation between the emperor and her is very bad, and wants to win over and cultivate some forces to fight against foreign ministers.

He thought for a moment and agreed, "Please lead the way!"

Under the guidance of the eunuch, Liu Cheng turned around in the imperial garden to a pavilion. Empress Dowager He was sitting on the bench of the pavilion to feed the fish swimming in the pond in front of him.

Liu Cheng stepped forward and bowed and said, "Liu Cheng greets the Empress Dowager!"

"Mr. Liu, you should call yourself a minister now. The General of the Yulin Central Army is a minister with a rank of two thousand stones!"

As Empress Dowager He said, throwing all the remaining fish food into the pond, turned around and patted Liu Cheng, looked at him and asked, "Liu Cheng, why do you look like you don't seem to be willing to be the General of the Yulin Central Army, and you don't want to protect the safety of Your Majesty and Ai's family, don't want to obey the imperial edict?"

This Empress Dowager He is extremely beautiful, less than thirty years old, which is the most beautiful moment for a woman. But Liu Cheng didn't have the mood to appreciate her at this moment. He smiled bitterly and said, "Empress Dowager, you have caused me a lot of trouble. I want to be an official, but I don't want to be an official in the palace. Besides, there are few imperial guards in the palace, and I am a doctor and a bare bare. Yesterday I killed so many Xiliang soldiers, and this matter will be found by Dong Feifei sooner or later. It will be too dangerous for me to stay in this palace. Queen Mother, you should do it. Please give your Majesty a new order and let me be released as an official!"

Empress Dowager He's face turned cold and stared at Liu Cheng and said, "The Ai family just wants to ask you, do you don't want to obey the imperial edict?"

Not obeying the imperial edict? This crime is so serious. As long as you say yes, you will be pulled out and chopped your head. Liu Cheng is not stupid and quickly bowed and said, "I don't dare. I just don't want Dong Zhuo to use me as an excuse to target Your Majesty and the Queen Mother!"

Empress Dowager He slowly stood up and walked towards Liu Cheng. Whether it was intentional or intentional, his feet turned soft, "Ah!" and rushed towards Liu Cheng in a scream.

Liu Cheng instinctively reached out to hug her instinctively, feeling a scent of fragrance. The skin at the entrance was as smooth as nephrite. At this time, he realized that Empress Dowager He was so tall, so he was so tall, plump and moist. He also remembered the historical records of Empress Dowager He was seven feet tall. Now, it was true.

With his delicate body in his arms, Liu Cheng was a little confused and could not control himself, and almost made a fool of himself.

Queen Mother He had already seen Dong Zhuo's power and unjust intentions yesterday. When she saw the emperor, she didn't get off the horse to pay homage, and even shouted loudly about who the emperor was. How could such a person be a kind person? She knew that she had to find a capable person to stay in the palace to protect her, otherwise Dong Zhuo might do something. Liu Cheng had a clean background, innocent wealth, high martial arts skills, and a little bit of heroic spirit, which was the right candidate.

She leaned over and leaned towards Liu Cheng, exhaled like orchid, saying word by word: "General Liu, are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid? Do you think that Dong Zhuo, the official of the outside world, can't find you, so you can't do anything to you? Escape is not something a man should do! The Ai family cannot trust the ministers outside the palace, and those who can trust cannot stay in the palace to protect him. Only you have a clean background and have a lot of skills. The Ai family and His Majesty are already orphans and widows. Does General Liu have the heart to watch the Ai family and His Majesty be bullied by Dong Zhuo and the ministers outside the palace?"

Liu Cheng was instantly shocked and sweated. It was not because of the previous words of Queen Mother He, but because of Queen Mother He's intention. She was using a beauty trick!

He knew in his heart that what Empress Dowager He said was not unreasonable, but this woman was not a good person. The reason why she said this was simply to win him over and use him. But if he was not worthy of being exploited, it means he was not capable either.

OK, since you want to use me, I will use you too! Liu Cheng thought for a moment and said to Empress Dowager He: "Empress Dowager, I am willing to be the General of the Yulin Central Army and I am willing to protect the safety of Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager, but I cannot compete with Dong Zhuo alone. The guarding power around Your Majesty is too weak. Now Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager are all from Min Gong and Lu Zhi. These two people should be trusted, but the troops are too small. The palace is already under Dong Zhuo's control. With less than two hundred people, I cannot compete with Dong Zhuo's thousands of troops. Therefore, I need to supplement the Yulin Guard's troops, otherwise I will not be able to compete with Dong Zhuo!"

Liu Cheng knew that at this time, he must control some of the troops to protect himself before Dong Zhuo controlled all the military power in Luoyang City, otherwise he would be a lamb to be slaughtered even if he was by the emperor.

Moreover, his enemies are not only Dong Zhuo, but also Chunyu Qiong. Chunyu Qiong is also Yuan Shao's person, so Yuan Shao is about to become his enemy. Whether it is Dong Zhuo or Yuan Shao, they are all people he cannot afford to offend. Both of them have military power in their hands, and just one sentence can make him die without a place to die.

After hearing Liu Cheng's words, Empress Dowager He knew that this was the reality, but she had no good idea. The reason why she wanted to win over Liu Cheng was because Liu Cheng had a clean background and was very skilled in martial arts. She didn't believe in Dong Zhuo and the ministers outside. She had been the queen for so many years. She could see clearly that those people from aristocratic families said that they were the ones who were humiliating their ministers to die. In fact, at the critical moment, they only cared about their own interests. As long as they were not good for them, they could change the emperor at any time.

Her eldest brother He Jin was dead, and her mother Wuyang Jun was outside the palace and had no power. Her second brother He Miao was stared at by He Jin's generals and could not count on him at all. At present, Liu Cheng was the only life-saving straw she could catch. She asked: "Does Liu Qing have a way to expand the emperor's escort power?"

Liu Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Empress Dowager, if you can get your Majesty's will, I can take your Majesty's imperial edict out of the palace and collect the military power of the Right School in Xiyuan to serve as a guard for the palace!"

Queen Mother He frowned: "Why only the military power of the Right School? Can't the other schools and the Northern Army?"

Liu Cheng's predecessor was also well-informed in Luoyang City, and he often traveled outside to know some of the situations in Luoyang City. He said: "Empress Dowager, in this time, in addition to the troops brought by Dong Zhuo, there were also the City Guards, the Eighth School of the West Garden and the Northern Army. His Majesty has appointed Wu Qiong as the city gate captain, and Wu Qiong was recommended by Dong Zhuo. I suspect Wu Qiong is Dong Zhuo's person, so the City Guards will definitely not be able to move."

Queen Mother He was shocked: "What? Didn't the Ai family backfire?"

Liu Cheng continued: "Some of the Northern Army is currently stationed north of the imperial city, and the rest are led by Huangfu Song to station in Guanzhong to confront Han Sui and others. Once the general dies, your younger brother, General Cheqi and Cavalry, He Miao, becomes the commander of this army. In terms of your current situation, transferring a unit of the Northern Army into the palace to be responsible for the guards of the palace is the best choice, but... The ministers in the court will definitely not agree, and they don't want to have the autocracy of the foreign relatives again!"

"Since Jian Shuo and the General were killed one after another, the upper and lower troops, most of the military power of the guards fell into the hands of the general Wang Kuang, the general. The Dianjun was only responsible for military discipline, with a small number of people, and did not play much role. The central army was controlled by Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shao was a representative figure of the aristocratic family and was not available. It is said that Wang Kuang believed that the death of the general was caused by the collusion between the General Cheqi and Cavalry, He Miao and Zhang Rang and others, and believed that the Empress Dowager maintained a tacit attitude, so he was very angry with the General Cheqi and Cavalry and the Empress Dowager, so this person was not trustworthy! Moreover, this person had too many soldiers and horses, and was very strong, so he could not move easily!"

"The guards are divided into four divisions, the left school, the right school, the left school of the assisting army and the right school of the assisting army. Among them, the left school of the assisting army Zhao Rong, the right school of the assisting army Feng Fang, and the left school of the left school of the chariot and cavalry general He Miao, and the right school of the right school of the army Chunyu Qiong is Yuan Shao's terror!"

"The only one we can have an idea is the right school. The captain Chunyu Qiong led his troops to burn, kill and loot the city last night, causing a large number of people to be killed and injured, and the houses were burned. Moreover, he was severely injured by the minister before he came to the palace and could not be in charge. As long as we were fast enough, we could control this army. Only Chunyu Qiong had the handle to fall into our hands. Moreover, most of the soldiers in this army participated in the looting. At this time, they must be anxious and afraid of the court's investigation. As long as your Majesty issued a decree to pardon, and with the efforts of the minister, they would definitely be able to return home!"
