Chapter 226: The Crossroads of History
The dinner ended like this, and Wang Yong personally saw off every guest, including Cao Cao.
Speaking of which, when she was leaving, she complained that her body seemed to smell of hot pot, and when she came, she had already bathed and changed her clothes, but after she went back, she was afraid that she would have to bathe again.
"Hot pot and barbecue are more or less like this...... The subordinates will remind the lord in advance next time. Wang Yong could only laugh, after all, many people came over in very formal dresses today.
Therefore, when eating, elegance is not what they (her) want, but they can't show it in a dress!
"What about Your Majesty? It seemed that I saw her left behind just now......" Cao Cao suddenly remembered something.
"I don't know, I'll go over and see." Wang Yong was also a little anxious, if something happened to Liu Xie, and something happened in his house, then he really died a hundred times and it was not enough to compensate.
"Remember, protect her back to the palace!" Cao Cao admonished, and then got into the carriage.
For Liu Xie, Cao Cao still gave a lot of freedom, except for a few guards who would 'protect' her if there were no around, most places were free for her to go. What to do, there is no death.
It's just that the old ministers in Guanzhong have just arrived, and no one knows what small actions they (they) will make behind the scenes.
After Wang Yong sent Cao Cao away, he hurried back, and just arrived at the banquet, but a guard came over and said to him: "Master Chef, Your Majesty is invited!" ”
"Oh, okay!" Wang Yong nodded, but he was wondering in his heart, what did Liu Xie have to find himself?
Basically, it can be determined that she did it on purpose, after all, she should have been the first to leave, but she deliberately stayed until the end, which Cao Cao asked with concern. Perhaps the implication is that he still wonders if Liu Xie intends to use himself to achieve the goal of escaping again.
He didn't know that Liu Xie had already confessed his experience to Cao Cao in private, and the latter already knew about the existence of the man in black. Even know the relationship between these men in black and the house of everything. She wasn't worried about Liu Xie leaving at all, so the guards she sent were really guarding Liu Xie.
Liu Xie was in the side hall, and there was no one else around, including ordinary waiters, who should have been separated by her.
"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?" Wang Yong came to her and saluted her.
"Well, there is something I want to talk to you about......" Liu Xie showed an expectant expression when she saw Wang Yong coming, but what she did next was to break away the guard who followed Wang Yong in.
Seeing that there was no one around, he returned to his previous appearance, and said to Wang Yong with a smile: "Okay, there is no one else here, can you call me by my previous name?" ”
"Don't dare!" Wang Yong immediately replied, after all, the wall has ears, and the necessary rules must be followed.
"Shopkeeper, you have changed...... Liu Xie saw this, and immediately pouted reluctantly, "In the past, you could talk and laugh with me, and even make fun of me from time to time, but now you are reserved." ”
"That's because the minister doesn't know His Majesty's identity, and now that he knows it, he naturally doesn't dare to make a mistake." Wang Yong hurriedly replied.
"It's just that I don't like you like this! Ever since I was reinstated, I had to put up a shelf every day and relearn etiquette as if I had been back in the old palace. Liu Xie complained directly.
After a pause, he continued: "After five years of escaping from there, I realized that what I like is the kind of unfettered and free life, even if it will be hard work to make money, at least it will give me a sense of fulfillment. It's not like here now, like a doll, everything can only be at the mercy of others.
Shopkeeper, there is no one else here, don't you want to treat me back to the former clerk Liu Li, and everyone can sit down and talk? ”
"This ......" Wang Yong hesitated slightly, he originally planned to refuse, but looking at Liu Li's appearance that he was about to cry, he gritted his teeth and couldn't speak.
"Hmph...... The shopkeeper really didn't care about my feelings at all......" Liu Li was really crying, or a little angry, "I just hope that there can be a place where I can really relax, and someone who can relax and talk to him." If the shopkeeper really intends to be so ruthless, then people will not miss the old love in the future!
Now I give you two choices, either everything will go back to the same, or you and I will be passers-by from now on. But if this is the case, I will do whatever it takes to fight Cao in the future, just like those courtiers said to me, to be a real emperor of the Han Dynasty! ”
At this moment, Wang Yong was a little speechless, not because he didn't know how to choose, but because he was a little surprised.
After all, in history, Liu Xie has been working against Cao Cao, no matter how good Cao Cao is to her, he is calculating the other party at all costs in order to regain power. In the end, the relationship between the two sides became more and more stiff, because of the relationship between the clothes and the edict, Fu Shou was abolished and killed, Liu Xie had to marry Cao Cao's two daughters, and finally poisoned again, so that the relationship between the two sides broke up.
Therefore, Cao Cao moved his residence and headquarters to Yecheng after conquering Guandu, and even later promoted to the Duke of Wei, and then further became the King of Wei, which was a protest against Liu Xie.
In this world, the origin of all this may begin at this time! The fuse, it's actually him?!
At this moment, he seemed to be standing at a crossroads in history. If he rejects Liu Xie, then everything will go according to normal history. On the contrary, it may go down another unknown path.
It's a bit like the game called The Butterfly Effect, where having the Butterfly Effect isn't necessarily the best option. Of course, if you follow history, you may not end well.
The point is, there is no way to save the file in this game, he has to give a choice, and then suffer the price of that choice.
"Whew......" Wang Yong took a deep breath, "Okay, you won!" Liu Li, in fact, we can not be ...... like this"
"But if I don't, does the shopkeeper plan to talk to people all the time?" Liu Xie was very happy, as excited as a little girl.
"But you have to promise me that I will only get along with you like this in private. After all, now that those officials in Guanzhong have come, the pressure on the lord during this time is not small. Wang Yong also put forward conditions, since it is an equal dialogue, then he is certainly qualified to put forward conditions.
"Okay, no problem, I promise you!" Listening to Wang Yong's tone, Liu Xie only felt very comfortable, and when he was in a good mood, he directly agreed.
After a pause, he continued: "Tomorrow is officially in the office, if it is not the day of the early dynasty, I will go to the back kitchen to help, is it okay?" ”
"As long as they don't stop you, I'm welcome here!" Wang Yong opened his hands, and when it came to this, he could be regarded as letting go.
I'm so hungry, I'm really hungry; I'm so hungry, I'm really hungry; I'm so hungry, I'm really hungry......
