Liu Xian and his two sworn brothers immediately stood on a hill twenty miles outside the city, watching the team getting further and further away. It turned out that Zhang Muxue and his father Zhang Dongliu had finally left Hanoi County and returned to Dai County.

.

The team entered the woods in the distance and could no longer be seen. Liu Xian sighed melancholy, feeling that the saying that children are long in love but heroes are short of breath is really true.

He picked up the snow-white brocade handkerchief Zhang Muxue gave him, took a gentle look at it, and couldn't help but smell it again.

Zhang Fei on the side couldn't help but laugh and said: "Brother, you look like a daughter's family! After we finish the big things, we can propose marriage! Then, eldest brother and sister-in-law can stay together forever!"

Liu Xian laughed, put the brocade handkerchief into his arms, calmed down, and shouted: "Go back!" Then he turned his horse's head and urged his mount to run straight towards Hanoi County. Zhang Fei, Dian and Wei hurriedly followed.

As soon as Liu Xian returned to the office, Guan Yu came up to him and clasped his fists: "My lord, Zhou Cang has sent someone back!"

The soldier standing behind Guan Yu, dressed in civilian clothes, immediately clasped his fists and worshiped: "Lord!"

Liu Xian asked: "Did something happen in Luoyang?"

The soldier clasped his fists and said: "Not long ago, He Jin was tricked into the palace by those eunuchs and was killed. Then Yuan Shao and other soldiers attacked the palace. Zhang Rang and others were defeated, so they took the emperor and tried to escape from Luoyang. However, Yuan Shao and others were killed.

After catching up at Mangshan, Zhang Rang and others were killed, and the emperor and others were rescued back to Luoyang..."

Liu Xian's heart suddenly moved and he asked, "Did Dong Zhuo show up?"

The soldier nodded and continued: "Dong Zhuo suddenly appeared with an army of 200,000 Xiliang troops at this time and has taken control of Luoyang."

"Hmm. So what are Yuan Shao and the others doing now?"

The soldier said: "On the second day after Dong Zhuo entered Luoyang, Yuan Shao and others led their troops to flee eastward. There are not many Luoyang troops left who originally belonged to the imperial court."

Guan Yu frowned and said: "Yuan Shao and others are Han officials and are responsible for defending Luoyang. At this critical moment, they should step forward to turn the tide, but now they abandon the emperor and the court and lead their troops to escape. They are really cowardly, selfish and shameless people!"

Liu Xian laughed and said: "Which of these people is really loyal to the emperor? The so-called loyalty before was nothing more than using it to seek benefits for himself. Speaking of which, I am afraid that only the treacherous Cao Cao has any interest in the Han court.

A bit of true loyalty!”

When Yan thought about this, he couldn't help but ask: "What about Cao Cao? What is he doing?"

The soldier said: "Cao Cao has not left. I heard that he has defected to Dong Zhuo."

Zhang Fei smiled and said: "This Cao Cao really knows how to make things happen!" He looked at Liu Xian and said: "I have told you before that he is not a good person, but I don't believe it!"

Liu Xian chuckled and did not explain anything. Thinking of the current situation, his face looked pensive. Everyone looked at him, waiting for his decision.

At this moment, an officer hurried in, clasped his fist towards Liu Xian and said, "My lord, the Queen Mother has sent someone!"

Only then did Liu Xian think of his previous loyalty to the Queen Mother He. He probably understood why the Queen Mother He sent someone at this time and said, "Bring him in."

The officer promised and hurried away. After a while, he led a dusty eunuch to the hall. It was the middle-aged eunuch Liu Xian had seen before.

As soon as the eunuch saw Liu Xian, he immediately showed excitement on his face, stepped forward and clasped his fists, saying, "Sir, why is it that the Queen Mother has urgently summoned you to lead the army to the capital, King Qin!"

Liu Xian said: "Father, don't be impatient. Let's speak clearly first. What exactly happened?"

The eunuch said with an indignant look: "Dong Zhuo is simply deceiving the emperor and being treasonous! Soon after he entered Beijing, he not only took control of the court and palace, blatantly issued edicts on behalf of the emperor, but also wanted to depose the current emperor and replace him with King Chen Liu.

Emperor! Isn’t this an attempt to cause rebellion?”

Then she clasped her fists and said: "The Queen Mother knows that you are loyal to the emperor and patriotic. Now our Han Dynasty has reached a very critical moment. Only you can save the Han Dynasty! Please also send troops to Beijing to Qinwang immediately! The Queen Mother has said that when the matter is completed, you will be granted the title of King Qin.

The hussar general leads the Han army!"

Liu Xian chuckled and said, "I understand. You go back and tell the Queen Mother, and I will take action immediately."

Seeing Liu Xian's calm words, the eunuch couldn't help but worry whether he was lying to him. However, at this moment, he couldn't say anything else. He bowed to Liu Xian with his fists raised, sighed, and turned around.

When Zhang Fei saw the eunuch leaving, he couldn't help but said: "I don't think the current emperor has anything to protect! It's a joke to let a child who doesn't understand anything become emperor! Then Dong Zhuo is also ridiculous. If he wants to change the emperor, it's also ridiculous.

You should choose a good one, why choose a child again?!"

Guan Yu said angrily: "Is Dong Zhuo motivated by kindness? I think he did this just to further control the court!"

Liu Xian nodded and said, "Yun Chang is right!"

Zhang Fei laughed and said: "Brother is just biased. He always says what Yunchang says makes sense, but what I say doesn't make sense!"

Liu Xian laughed and said angrily: "Did I say that? You talk too much!"

Zhang Fei grinned, and then said: "If you want me to say, this Han Emperor should be the eldest brother! The eldest brother is also named Liu, so he has the qualifications!" Everyone present looked at Liu Xian with their hearts moved.

Liu Xian smiled and scolded: "You guy, you are talking nonsense again!" He paused and said, "Now is not the time to joke. Should we consider how to deal with the situation at hand?"

Guan Yu said: "Although our army is elite, it only has a total of 30,000 troops. However, Xiliang's army exceeds 200,000, and the strength gap between the two sides is too great. If we rush into the army rashly, not only will we not be able to achieve the purpose of driving Dong Zhuo away, I am afraid that there will be more

Encountered a devastating disaster."

Zhang Fei has always been fierce and domineering, but at this time he did not refute Guan Yu's words. After all, the power gap between the two sides was too great, and this rude guy did not have much confidence.

Liu Xian said: "That's why I wrote to Ding Yuan."

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's eyes lit up at the same time. Guan Yu clapped his hands and said, "That's right! Ding Yuan had a hundred thousand Bingzhou troops. With his help, it would not be impossible to fight against Dong Zhuo!"

Zhang Fei nodded in agreement and said to Liu Xian with admiration: "Brother has thought of this step a long time ago. It is so wise. You are worthy of being my eldest brother!"

Liu Xian frowned and said, "But Ding Yuan never replied. I wonder what he really thinks?"

Then he laughed at himself and said, "Maybe this guy doesn't even bother to cooperate with me, a mere prefect!"

Guan Yu said to Zhang Fei: "Gather your troops immediately and wait for my orders at any time!" The two of them clasped their fists in agreement and hurried down.

Soon after, spies came to report that Ding Yuan, leading an army of 80,000 soldiers from Bingzhou, was about to enter Hanoi.

Liu Xian immediately sent Guo Lang to contact him.
