Chapter 378

When Kong Rong arrived in Xudu, he was already in the dust, and his clothes were a little shabby.

This time, it's not going well.

Kong Rong's heart is even worse. He was not only beaten by soldiers, but also by Zhang Xiu. He was so angry that he vomited blood. It can be said that he lost face and the face of the imperial envoy.

Kong Rong was determined to sue Zhang Xiu, and let Zhang Xiu's reputation stink and become the object of abuse.

Zhang Xiu is a traitor like Cao Cao.

Kong Rong went straight to the palace.

But Kong Rong didn't find out. When he went straight into the palace, many people were talking about Kong Rong's mission to Huayin county.

Some people say that Kong Rong went to Huayin County, put on airs and put on airs, and was so arrogant that he angered Zhang Xiu.

Some people say that Zhang Xiu talks about Kong Rong in one day, and Zhang Xiu will never cooperate.

Some people say that Kong Rong is self righteous and despises Zhang Xiu everywhere.

……

All kinds of words spread in Xu.

These rumors were discovered by people in the city, but Kong Rong himself was not aware of them.

Kong Rong took a carriage to the gate of the palace and asked to see the emperor.

After the servant reported to the palace, he led Kong Rong into the palace.

In the main hall, Liu Xie sits on the throne.

Liu Xie is now sixteen or seventeen years old, fair-looking and pretty. It's just his body, which gives people a sense of thin. In particular, Liu Xie Duan did not have the domineering and powerful power of the emperor. On the contrary, he gave people a cautious and cautious feeling.

This is the result of Liu Xie's experience.

Liu Bian, the elder brother of Liu Xie, was abolished by Dong Zhuo shortly after he became emperor, and finally died. In fact, although Liu Bian died, he didn't suffer much. Life without Liu Xie was rough.

Liu Xie was supported by Dong Zhuo as emperor, but he was bullied and became Dong Zhuo's puppet.

After Dong Zhuo's death, Wang Yun ruled and regarded Liu Xie as a child instead of the emperor. After Wang Yun's death, Li Xi and Guo Si entered Chang'an and took turns to control Liu Xie. Liu Xie's reign was not guaranteed.

The days were extremely hard.

When Liu Xie escaped from Chang'an, his life was even more miserable, and he could not eat enough.

Finally, with the help of Cao Cao, he got rid of the precarious days. Although Cao Cao respected the emperor, he always trapped Liu Xie in the palace. Liu Xie had no real power and was still a puppet.

People are not satisfied.

When Liu Xie was in trouble and didn't eat, he felt that with food, the rest could be ignored. Now that Liu Xie is not worried about food and clothing, and his life is stable, he wants to control power, restore the glory of the great man, and establish his prestige in the court.

It's just quite difficult.

After discussing with his ministers, Liu Xie thought that to get rid of the current situation, he should first take rice paper. On the one hand, to establish the prestige of the emperor; on the other hand, to grasp the stable source of income, pool financial resources, so as to accumulate strength.

Liu Xie's eyes were full of expectations. He couldn't help standing up and said, "wenjugong, what's the situation?"

Kong Rong, the character of Wen Ju.

Liu Xie is young, but also to establish the image of a courteous and virtuous corporal, calling Kong Rong wenjugong.

With a look of helplessness, Kong Rong knelt down like a jade pillar and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me."

In a word, Liu Xie was stunned.

Liu Xie was confused.

What happened to Kong Rong?

Just now, he asked how Kong Rong looked like his parents had died.

Liu Xie blinked and said, "Wen Jugong, get up and talk. If you have any problems, tell them. "

Kong Rong still knelt down on the ground and said solemnly: "I have been ordered by your majesty to go to Guanzhong to see Zhang Xiu. At that time, Zhang Xiu went out to fight. Instead of being in Chang'an, she went to Huayin County, Hongnong county. "

"The old minister traveled thousands of miles and drove to Huayin county to find Zhang Xiu."

"Who knows that after arriving in Huayin County, Zhang Xiu is arrogant and arrogant, and she is unreasonable, regardless of your Majesty's edict. Zhang xiukou said that it was impossible to hand over the manufacturing technology of rice paper to his majesty. "

"When I was at the gate of Huayin County, I was humiliated by the soldiers guarding the gate. At the gate of the barracks in the city, he was beaten by the soldiers at the gate of the barracks and stabbed in the shoulder. "

"When I saw Zhang Xiu, I was kicked by Zhang Xiu, and I fell into a mess."

Kong Rong's words were more eloquent and tearful, and he cried: "Your Majesty, Zhang Xiu is here. He has no father. He is arrogant and rebellious. He is like Cao Cao. Zhang Xiu and Yuan Shu are the same people. "

"As an envoy of the emperor, I have never been so humiliated in my life."

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for me."

Kong Rong kowtowed again, kowtowed to the ground with his head, and fell on the ground with his hands, looking indignant.

Kong Rong's resentment towards Zhang Xiu can't be washed away by the water of the Yellow River. This time back to Xudu, Kong Rong must mobilize the power of Qingliu to make Zhang Xiu a traitor.He will not stop until he reaches his goal.

When Liu Xie heard Kong Rong's words, he frowned with a touch of anger on his face.

Zhang Xiu is a hateful man.

After pondering it over for a while, Liu Xie didn't know what to do now, because now Liu Xie is in urgent need of rice paper to make money. If there is a production process of rice paper, Liu Xie's people can make paper in Xudu.

With a steady stream of money, Liu Xie can recruit and gather his own strength.

Although Liu Xie was angry, he still had an idea and didn't intend to give up.

Liu Xie said immediately, "come on!"

A servant came in and bowed himself to salute. Liu Xie said, "pass the edict. After calling Fu, Dong Cheng will come to the palace to meet you."

Fu Wan is the father of empress Fu Shou.

Dong Cheng is the father of the concubine Dong.

Both of them are loyal to Liu Xie.

After the imperial edict came out, Liu Xie looked back, fell on Kong Rong and said, "Wen Jugong, and get up to speak. If you say that Zhang Xiu is so arrogant, does it mean that it is impossible for us to obtain the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper? "

"Yes

Kong Rong got up and said, "Your Majesty, Zhang Xiu is a wild and rebellious son, and he has no father. Zhang Xiu is like Dong Zhuo. He was born in the Xiliang army. He is really wild and hard to tame. "

Liu Xie blinked, thinking about how to deal with it.

Kong Rong is still talking.

Crying about Zhang Xiu's arrogance.

After a short time, Fu Wan and Dong Cheng entered the hall and saluted Liu Xie at the same time.

Liu Xie said, "give me a seat!"

The servant came to the table, and Fu Wan, Dong Cheng and Kong Rong took their seats.

Liu Xie waved his hand to Kong Rong and said, "Fu Qing and Dong Qing, Wen Jugong returned from Huayin county without success. Zhang Xiu is so crazy that she doesn't cooperate at all. What can we do if we want to get the manufacturing technology of rice paper? "

Kong Rong gritted his teeth and said, "Zhang Xiu, who was born in the Xiliang army, is just like Dong Zhuo. He is arrogant and domineering. It's hard to convince him. "

Dong Cheng snorted: "Kong Wenju, my official is also from Xiliang army. Is he also like Dong Zhuo?"

You know, in the early years, Dong Cheng was Niu Fu's trilogy.

Niu Fu is Dong Zhuo's son-in-law.

Equivalent to, Dong Cheng is also Xiliang army background, Kong Rong a word, Dong Cheng offended.

When Kong Rong heard Dong Cheng's words, he was a little surprised, because Dong Cheng would not be angry as usual. Dong Cheng has always separated himself from Dong Zhuo and Xiliang military region.

At the moment, Dong Cheng spoke directly to him.

Let Kong Rong particularly not adapt, we should know that before Kong Rong was sent to Huayin County, Dong Cheng was very respectful to Kong Rong. At the moment, Dong Cheng's action is tantamount to giving Kong Rong a stick.

What about good friends?

What is the agreed front?

Kong Rong took a deep breath and explained, "general Dong, I don't mean that."

Dong Cheng said, "who knows what you mean?"

Liu Xie was surprised to see Dong Cheng's sharp words. Although Dong Cheng was also born in the Xiliang army, in Liu Xie's eyes, Dong Chengzhong is the most trusted person.

This is his confidant.

Dong Cheng has always been in the interests of the emperor. He is a very calm man.

Liu Xiezhuan said, "Dong Qing, Wen Jugong doesn't mean that. Now, I want you to say less. Wen Jugong failed. Now we have to consider another way to let Zhang Xiu hand over the production technology of rice paper. "

"No way."

Dong Cheng shook his head in a determined manner.

Liu Xie said, "why?"

Dong Cheng glanced at Kong Rong and replied, "Your Majesty, now the whole Xu capital, countless people, are talking about Kong Rong's mission to Huayin county."

"The news is very loud."

"People say that when Kong Wenju arrived in Huayin County, he put on airs and looked like his eyes were above the top. Kong Wenju went to the gate of the city, but he didn't enter. He asked Zhang Xiu to meet him by name and surname. "

"In the end, he went to town in ashes."

"Kong Rong went to Zhang Xiu's tent door, and put up a new plan. He also asked Zhang Xiu to meet him by name and surname."

"In the end, it's still gray."

Dong Cheng looked very disdainful, and said: "after Kong Rong saw Zhang Xiu, he made a gesture of asking for punishment and ordered Zhang Xiu to hand over the manufacturing technology of Xuan paper."

"Who are you, Kong Wenju?"

"When you go to Huayin county with emperor Fu Jie, to put it better, you go to summon him. To put it more directly, you go to ask Zhang Xiu for help. You ask for Zhang Xiu's help."

"You ask Zhang Xiu for help and put on airs. Do you think Zhang Xiu will take care of you?"

"Kong Wenju, if you screw things up yourself, you will blame Zhang Xiu for all the problems. If you don't think you're right, if you don't put on airs, it won't be like this. "

"Zhang Xiu has said that as long as you Kong Wenju is in one day, you will not cooperate.""You say, isn't it your fault?"

Filled with indignation, Dong Chengyi had already rolled up his sleeve and wanted to beat Kong Rong violently. He said, "if Kong Rong hadn't been loyal to the emperor, I would have beaten you severely now. Because of your recklessness and arrogance, you have ruined your Majesty's affairs. "

Brush!

Kong Rong's face changed greatly.

What's going on?

Dong Cheng knew about Huayin County, especially after seeing Fu Wan's look, Fu Wan also knew.

Xu has spread all over the world.

It's impossible.

Kong Rong's mind changed, and immediately thought of Zhang Xiu. It must be Zhang Xiu who started the work first and arranged to make a rumor. At this moment, Kong Rong was flustered and said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, this is Zhang Xiu's slander. Zhang Xiu is really hateful. "

Liu Xie was angry.

He tends to believe Dong Cheng's words, especially the failure of Kong Rong, which makes Liu Xie dissatisfied.

Liu Xie brushed his sleeve and said, "Kong Rong, look at what you've done."

Brush!

Kong Rong's face is like ashes.

At this moment, even Liu Xie abandoned him. In the face of Liu Xie's abuse, Kong Rong really doesn't know what to say. He wanted to slander Zhang Xiu first. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiu did it first.

Kong Rong has a lot to say.

Do evil!

Kong Rong's heart gave birth to such an idea.

Liu Xie stopped talking to Kong Rong, looked at Dong Cheng and Fu Wan, and asked, "Dong Qing and Fu Qing, what should we do now?"

Fu Wan sighed: "for the time being, we can only wait. Now angered Zhang Xiu, he certainly will not cooperate. After a period of time, Zhang Xiu's spirit dissipated, and then arranged for people to lobby Zhang Xiu. "

Dong Cheng said, "what Lord Fu said is true."

Liu Xie's face collapsed and his eyes were a little chilly. He glanced at Kong Rong and was even more discontented, but he only said: "that's all. I'll talk about Xuan paper later. Kong Qing, step back! "

"Here it is

Kong Rong left in a daze.

At this moment, Kong Rong felt cold all over. He can expect that he will become a laughing stock and be criticized by countless people.

Because he messed up the emperor's affairs.

Zhang Xiu, you are so cruel!

Kong Rong's heart is full of desolation and helplessness. When he was in Huayin County, he was bullied to death by Zhang Xiu. Now back to Xudu, he was calculated by Zhang Xiu.
