Chapter 298: Knowing the Lonely Heart
The entrance of the Jianzhang Palace Bridge is opposite the main entrance, the Yuanque, the Jade Hall, the front hall, and the back hall, forming a central axis. The other palaces are distributed on the left and right, and there are flying pavilions and chariot roads between the palaces.
The three surrounding mountains are modeled after the Western Han Dynasty to build Zhangsan Shenshan, and the surrounding water system is modeled after Taiye Pool. Although they are all imitations, they are still majestic.
Pass through the front hall and walk two hundred steps to reach the Jianzhang back hall built on a high platform. The statues of Jianzhang palace master may have been moved to the Luoyang Palace by Liu Hong. Only this high platform has a golden statue erected in front of the back hall. .
In addition to the height of the high platform, the bronze statue seems to be standing halfway up the mountain, with a gap of tens of feet from the lowest point in the palace. The statue holds a copper plate and a jade cup with its open palms, which can collect rain and dew.
The sound of the harp and harp was soothing and clear, and seemed to have the style of a great master. Along the way, Li Ru became familiar with the splendor of the Luoyang Palace, and he couldn't help but sigh at the carefree charm set off by the mountain scenery here.
Of course, it would be more perfect if there were no military drills overlooking the central school grounds and the faint sound of iron hammering coming from the periphery of the palace. Li Ru lamented Liu Cang's contradictions again.
Entering the main hall, the guards in front of the door stopped Li Ru, who was guarding the soldiers. He Lian accompanied him. Li Ru only took Hua Xiong into the hall. Seeing Liu Cang sitting idle in the hall from a distance, Li Ru's eyelids trembled and he paid homage loudly.
"Li Ru pays homage to His Highness!" The palace is empty, with jade pillars warming the pavilion.
Well, Liu Cang did not have a high seat in the central hall, but placed a table under the stairs of the main seat, leaning against the giant tiger mountain king and nestled in the mountain king's soft fur.
Li Ru had already seen this giant tiger, and he also knew the two beautiful women playing the harp next to Liu Cang. One was Cai Yan, the daughter of Cai Yong, and the other was the daughter of the Zou family in Jiuquan.

Including the charming Persian girl huddled in Liu Cang's arms, Li Ru didn't feel anything unusual.
But there were more than twenty tall and beautiful women in the palace. Among them, the Bian family's daughter, who often managed the affairs of the constitution for Liu Cang, was ignited with hunting aura, as if she was accepting Liu Cang's comments.
This situation made Li Ru a little uncomfortable.
The Bian family's daughter was good at singing and dancing, and Li Ru, who had been closely monitoring the personnel around Liu Cang, knew it for a long time. But for such a beautiful woman, it's fine if you don't appreciate her singing and dancing. It's really strange that she can let people burst out with such blazing energy. Are you willing to spare the life of a beautiful woman?
Li Ru felt unwell, and Hua Xiong's eyes were twitching. This woman's aura seemed to be even more violent than his.
Although he lamented that this woman was burdened with karma, Hua Xiong was really worried that the beauty that was once pleasing to the eye would ooze blood from all her orifices in the next moment. That scene would be even more terrifying than a fight on the battlefield.
"Well, you're here?" Bian Ji's strong energy converged, and the music in the palace stopped. While Liu Cang was speaking, several women in the palace paid homage to He Lian from afar.
"I have met the Queen Mother." Cai Yan, Zhang Xiuniang, Bian Ji, Zou Jing, Roxana, the five women had met He Lian earlier, and they were still respectful to He Lian at this time.
When He Lian looked at the five girls again, there were tears in her eyes.
After arriving here, He Lian no longer seemed to be afraid of Li Ru. He Lian walked towards Cai Yan and helped Cai Yan, who was bowing. Tears could not help but flow out of his eyes. Cai Yan sighed and took him aside, leaving the frowning Li Ru to face Liu directly. Cang.
"Your Highness, Empress He murdered Empress Dowager Dong, and her crime cannot be forgiven. However..." Mu Qi found a soft cushion and led Li Ru to sit across from Liu Cang. Li Ru opened his mouth to talk about He Lian's affairs, but Liu Cang was distracted by his words.
Cang interrupted.
"Okay, there are no outsiders here, where is the prince?" Liu Cang asked Li Ru.
Li Ru observed the empty hall. The giant tiger glanced at him and then closed his eyes to rest. Hearing that there were dozens of servant girls around Liu Cang, he thought that the women here were the rumored servants of Liu Cang who could carry swords into battle.
Well, dozens of concubines are nothing. Dong Zhuo also had hundreds of concubines.
As for men, everyone understands. As for women, I think most of them pretend not to understand.
As for Boss Cao's private life being criticized a lot in later generations, it is actually a bit unjust. These days, it is normal to have a lot of concubines. It's just that some people in later generations may feel that some things are too clear and it's not good to explain them.
Liu Cang's words, "There are no outsiders," made Li Ru take a closer look at Mu Qi who was waiting on the side. He remembered Mu Qi's appearance in his heart, and then looked at Liu Cang with a serious face.
"Your Highness, King Hongnong is originally in Hongnong, but the emperor cares about family ties and has repeatedly wanted to recruit King Hongnong to accompany him in the palace." When Li Ru said, He Lian's face suddenly changed and she wanted to speak, but was stopped by Cai Yan.
.
"Haha, the emperor is not familiar with ordinary things, and Dong Gong also plays nonsense with the emperor?" Liu Cang chuckled.
"Your Highness, we are from Liangzhou. Not to mention the courtiers, even the emperor is wary of misunderstandings about Dong Gong."
"The emperor is simple-minded, diligent in his studies, and does not ask for much. If Mr. Dong does not follow the emperor's wishes, he may alienate the emperor." Li Ru seemed troubled.
"You...you are going too far to bully others!" He Lian on the side couldn't bear it anymore and scolded her sadly.
"Bian'er is a good man and should be the king of Yanhan. What Liu Xie has seen and known since he was a child is greed and flattery. You are still unwilling to give up on deposing the emperor. Do you really think you can live with Liu Xie's son for a long time!?"
Although Liu Cang was indifferent to her, He Lian saw that Cai Yan and the girls seemed to be nostalgic for their old friendship, and Jianzhang Palace was no longer the palace controlled by Dong Zhuo. He Lian, who had been released for a long time, seemed to be suppressed, and shouted sternly.
"Queen Mother, I'm afraid you, a mother-killer, can't comment on the affairs of the Emperor, right?" Li Ru was indifferent and retorted to He Lian with a cold eye. Liu Cang's eyes were playful. Dong Zhuo had not been in power for a long time, and Li Ru was already full of momentum.
"Just say less." Li Ru had a bad attitude towards He Lian, but Liu Cang didn't take any action against him and instead scolded He Lian.
"Wen You, do you want to be emperor?" Liu Cang stopped He Lian from saying anything more, but Li Ru who asked the question immediately looked like a ghost.
"Hiss~ Why did your Highness say that!" Li Ru was briefly stunned, and He Lian was also wide-eyed in shock.
Li Ru stood up and took a few steps back, keeping a distance from Liu Cang. As if he was afraid that Liu Cang would get angry and hurt someone, Hua Xiong guarded Li Ru with a cautious expression.
"Hahaha, don't panic, I'm not talking about the Emperor of the Han Dynasty." Liu Cang laughed, and Li Ru was still shocked.
"Not to mention that there is a Princess of Anthia in a certain family who is closely related to the Persian clan. There is a Japanese island country in the Lelang Sea, which is rich in resources and has a fairly small population."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Over there, I was respected as a god by the Japanese emperor Wonu. If Wenyu is interested, I can go there with him. With Wenyou's ability, I think it won't take a few years.
It shouldn't be difficult to claim the title of emperor and ancestor." Liu Cang explained, and the surprise on Li Ru's face faded, and his expression gradually became weird.
There were rumors about the Wonu Kingdom during the time of Emperor Wu, and Li Ru guessed what Liu Cang was referring to. However, guarding the rich territory of the Han Dynasty, Li Ru obviously had no intention of going to a territory that was not even as good as Liangzhou to become an emperor.
"Your Highness is joking, haha, don't make fun of Li." Li Ru calmed down and sat back down slowly.
Dongpingwang flight service has started. (Dense fog)
Well, the officials in Luoyang still knew about Liu Cang's air transportation using Gu. The Gu was able to travel day by day and carry people soaring into the sky. Many people were curious about it.
But curiosity is curiosity. Except for those who are relatively close to Liu Cang, no one is willing to put themselves in a situation where life and death are unpredictable.
Not to mention that the poisonous poison was ferocious. If Liu Cang had a slightly crooked idea and had a 'flight accident', breathing at an altitude of 10,000 meters could kill a person. There would be no way to the sky and no way to the earth.
It is not advisable to leave life and death in the hands of others, which also leads to the fact that not many people are willing to try Liu Cang's expensive flying business.
Li Ru didn't dare to try riding on a wither, but he still had some ideas about Liu Cang's super mobility.
Living in Beihai every day and staying in Nanshan at night, he could easily find places like Yingzhou and Fusang, and Li Ru didn't question it too much.
Rather than going there to become emperor, Li Ru was actually more curious about whether Liu Cang had found the elixir of immortality.
"Don't you like the Japanese slave country? There is a barbaric land outside the South China Sea that is no smaller than the Han Dynasty. If you don't like the east, there are many fertile lands in the west with fairy mountains, lakes and seas." Liu Cang looked at Li Ru with a half-smile but not a smile.
.
"I'm telling you this, but the emperor of the Han Dynasty is not that attractive to Gu."
"Oh, Emperor? What's wrong with you? Wen You likes it. I'll give you ten or eight of you, a place suitable for reproduction. But it's not a big deal to build a country."
"Does Wen You know how to be lonely?" Liu Cang asked with a smile, while Li Ru's expression was a little distorted.
‘Does this person say anything!!?’ Li Ru screamed in his heart.
Is this arrogance? Is it arrogance? Is it arrogance? Anyway, Li Ru has never seen such arrogance in his life.
Li Ru suddenly felt that getting along with King Dongping was very tiring...
