"Does Your Majesty still recognize this King?"
After Yang Rui entered the Imperial Study, the little Emperor Liu Xie had already noticed him. Yang Rui did not hide anything and directly approached the Emperor.
In the face of actual power, Yang Rui was not prepared to follow the rules and bow to Liu Xie.
[System Notification: Respected player Blazing Sun, due to special environmental restrictions, you are unable to use the Thousand Escape Talisman Soul.]
While greeting Liu Xie, Yang Rui also tried to see if the Thousand Escape Talisman Soul could still be used, but the result was negative.
Before entering the Imperial Study of the little Emperor Liu Xie, Yang Rui had also activated the Thousand Escape Talisman Soul in the outer city and in the Nangong Palace. The system prompt he received was "Are you sure you want to use it?", indicating that the talisman could still be used at that time.
However, after entering the Imperial Study, the environment here clearly did not allow the use of related items.
Yang Rui had tested the soul of the Thousand Escape Talisman in order to prepare for any eventuality and use it to escape. After all, Yang Rui was currently deep in the tiger's den, so he had no choice but to consider the possibility of an unexpected situation occurring.
"Uh … So it's Your Excellency King of the East Sea!"
One had to admit that the little Emperor Liu Xie was very smart and calm. He had recognized Yang Rui's identity before Yang Rui had introduced himself. It should be known that Liu Xie had only been in close contact with Yang Rui when Dong Zhuo had entered the capital.
Later, there was the matter of the Imperial Decree, but at that time, Liu Xie and Yang Rui had never met, and Yang Rui had basically ignored the little Emperor's Imperial Decree.
"Your Majesty really has a good memory!"
Yang Rui admired Liu Xie's performance from the bottom of his heart. Not only did Liu Xie have a clear impression of Yang Rui, but when he suddenly saw Yang Rui, he only experienced a moment of surprise before returning to normal.
Liu Xie's calmness was obviously something that his brother, Liu Bian, could not achieve. Even though Liu Bian was currently under Yang Rui's control, he would still be very tense when he saw Yang Rui. He did not have Liu Xie's reaction ability at all.
This was probably one of the reasons why Dong Zhuo had insisted on dethroning the emperor and establishing a new one. Overall, Liu Xie wasn't just smart and quick-witted. At the same time, he was very clear about his own situation and how to get along with powerful officials.
This point was especially obvious in the following contact between Liu Xie and Yang Rui.
"Men, prepare a seat!"
Liu Xie very skillfully invited Yang Rui to sit down and also very naturally sang Yang Rui's praises. He gave off the feeling that he was very easy to get along with.
"We have often heard of Brother Blazing Sun's great reputation and have always been concerned about it. To think that Brother Blazing Sun would actually come to Luoyang at this time. Your sincerity can move metal and stone. We are very gratified.
Brother Blazing Sun's talents are peerless, but you govern three provinces and must be very busy. To be able to let so many people of my great Han live and work in peace and contentment, you must have spent a great deal of effort. This is the fortune of my great Han.
I have also heard that Brother Blazing Sun has opened up the sea route to Dongying and wishes to conquer the barbarians on our behalf. The military affairs are also very heavy. Although Brother Blazing Sun's merits are unparalleled, We are unable to help you. This is truly regrettable. I hope that Brother Blazing Sun can forgive us … "
Because he didn't know Yang Rui's intentions, Liu Xie not only praised Yang Rui very highly, but also lowered his own attitude. In truth, he was still worried that Yang Rui would be dissatisfied or unintentionally angered Yang Rui.
This was especially so in terms of address. Liu Xie was the emperor of the great Han Dynasty, and he was also the one who had given Yang Rui the title of King of Donghai. But now, Liu Xie was addressing Yang Rui as an elder brother!
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be like this. Governing the provinces and caring for the Emperor is my duty. The Eastern barbarians are rampant and don't know their place. I have long wanted to suppress them. Your Majesty, there is no need to praise me too much."
Since Liu Xie had decided on his own, Yang Rui didn't need to be modest anymore. After many experiences in the game, Yang Rui had an accurate grasp of how to maintain self-control and how to treat people.
At this time, although Liu Xie was the Emperor of the Han Dynasty in name, he didn't have much power, especially after Dong Zhuo's westward migration and the subsequent chaotic war between Li Jue and Guo Si. The emperor of the Han Dynasty was only left in name.
"Brother King of Donghai, what you said is reasonable. You can consider and decide on all matters regarding the territory and expeditions. If there is anything you need me for, just say the word. I will do my best to support you!"
Liu Xie tactfully stopped talking about the territory and expeditions. One had to admit that Liu Xie was smart and self-aware. While saying that he would listen to Yang Rui's arrangements, Liu Xie also said that he would support Yang Rui's ideas. Obviously, he had already guessed that Yang Rui must have a purpose for coming here.
At this point, Yang Rui was even more emotional. It really saved a lot of effort to deal with smart people. Yang Rui originally thought that he would have to talk to Liu Xie for a while. He didn't expect that before he even opened his mouth, Liu Xie had already taken the initiative to agree to most of it.
In the historical records, Liu Xie didn't have many scenes. He only made a few appearances during the Dong Zhuo Rebellion and the Imperial Decree. As a result, Yang Rui didn't know much about Liu Xie. Now, it seemed that the little Emperor Liu Xie in the game wasn't a simple character.
"This King is limited by my strength and hasn't been able to share much of Brother's burden. Previously, this King was unable to contribute to the Imperial Decree incident. This King is always ashamed of himself.
Now that Brother supports This King so much, this King wishes that this King could restore the Han Dynasty and cause Brother to fall into the hands of Cao Cao.
Previously, This King had always wanted to bring Brother to Qingzhou and Yanzhou. However, that traitor Cao Cao obstructed me in every way possible. Even though This King's military strength was greater than Traitor Cao's, Hulao Pass was long and difficult to cross.
Later on, when This King broke through Hulao, Traitor Cao built Shanshui City and Shanshui Pass, which were no less sturdy than Hulao. He even welcomed Brother into Luoyang Imperial City first.
Traitor Cao's actions seemed to be welcoming Your Majesty, but they were actually robbing Your Majesty. I hope Brother can distinguish between right and wrong and prevent Traitor Cao from becoming a second Dong Zhuo! "
Using the young Emperor Liu Xie's words as an opportunity, Yang Rui also tried to establish a relationship with him. He spoke a lot of truths and lies, but he didn't know how much the young Emperor Liu Xie would believe.
However, it didn't matter if he believed it or not. Yang Rui was only trying to create an atmosphere to smear Cao Cao's reputation and lay down the foundation for what he was about to say.
"Traitor Cao's intentions are gradually becoming apparent. Perhaps Brother doesn't know, but Cao Cao is currently wiping out dissidents around Luoyang Imperial City to achieve complete control over Brother and Luoyang Imperial City.
For example, this King has several old friends, such as Trace Dragon Soul and Starlight Changkong, who were originally the abbot of several counties around Luoyang Imperial City. At this time, they are being threatened by Cao Cao, who wants to force them to hand over the cities in their hands.
I hope Brother can use Luoyang's peace and Han Dynasty's state to protect Trace Dragon Soul and Starlight Changkong. I hope Brother can give them the official position of county magistrate to keep Cao Cao in check … "
