"It's within Cao Cao's duty to contribute to the Han Dynasty and relieve the king's worries!" Cao Cao praised him.

Looking at Cao Cao's expectant eyes, Liu Qing couldn't help but feel funny.

"What Meng De said is true! I am fighting against the Yellow Turbans, suppressing the powerful, and bringing order to chaos. However, after all, I am not a man with only three heads and six arms. The vast world needs truly loyal ministers and good generals. Meng De is both civil and military, and has many brave men under his command.

sufficient

Sitting in a state, Yuan Shao's forces have been wiped out of Yanzhou. I want to declare Meng De as the shepherd of Yanzhou. Yanzhou is close to Yuzhou, and there will definitely be many battles with Yuan Shao in the future. Meng De, are you willing to accept it?" Liu Qing immediately announced, procedural

I asked Cao Cao for his opinion.

Cao Cao was waiting for this sentence and immediately replied loudly: "Cao Cao will certainly live up to your Majesty's expectations!"

As for the behind-the-scenes details, Liu Qing and Cao Cao have already discussed it.

Cao Cao was happy, and so was Cheng Yu on the side. The Cao brothers and Xiahou brothers also drank happily. It can be said that when one person attains enlightenment, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Compared with the lively and festive atmosphere on Cao Cao's side, Liu Bei's side seemed a bit gloomy.

Hearing that Cao Cao got such a high official, Zhang Fei couldn't sit still for the first time and said quickly: "Your Majesty is so partial. Although my eldest brother only has a mere two thousand men, he has traveled thousands of miles to come to your aid. Your Majesty can show off to Cao Xiangguo.

You should think about it for my eldest brother!"

"Yide, don't talk nonsense!" Liu Bei stopped him quickly and handed Liu Qing, "My third brother is naughty, please forgive me!"

Liu Qing laughed loudly when he saw this, "General Zhang has a charming temperament and is very suitable for my king. Xuande, what General Zhang said is true. You also contributed a lot to this battle. I do have a position in my heart. Tao Qian betrayed me."

The imperial court chose to associate with Yuan Shao, but I have been expelled from Xuzhou by my king. The post of Xuzhou governor is still vacant. I wonder if Xuande is interested?"

When Liu Bei heard this, he stood up leisurely, stepped forward and bowed to express his gratitude: "Thank you for your appreciation, your Majesty. I am just the governor of Xuzhou. The relationship is very important. I have little moral ability and little talent, so I may not be able to take on a big job!"

To the surprise of most people, Liu Bei humbly declined. Of course, most of these people did not include Liu Qing. Liu Qing understood that perhaps this was the real Liu Bei.

"Brother Xuande, the king values ​​you so much, why should I refuse?" Even Cao Cao advised.

"Brother, this is really a place for a man to show his strength!" Guan Yu also said from the side.

"Brother!" Zhang Fei called out, all his emotions were in this call.

Liu Qing smiled slightly, looked at Guo Jia, then looked at Mi Zhu on the other side, and said with a smile: "Xuande, if you are worried, I will assign you another assistant. Mi Zizhong knows Xuzhou well, so you can

How about using him as your companion in Xuzhou to help you govern Xuzhou?"

Liu Bei still glanced at Mi Zhu who was next to Liu Qing, but Mi Zhu looked at Liu Qing unexpectedly, obviously very surprised by this arrangement.

He carefully planned to help King Bohai capture Xuzhou, but why did he let it go so casually?

In fact, it was not to be given away and handed over to Liu Bei to govern. Xuzhou was still the Xuzhou of the King of Bohai, just as Liu Qing was very relieved to hand over Youzhou to Liu Yu and Hedong to Zhang Ning.

This is also the reason why Yanzhou was handed over to Cao Cao.

Liu Bei was silent for two breaths before he said: "Since the king insists, be prepared to go all out and go all out!"

Compared with Yanzhou, Xuzhou greatly exceeds the former in terms of population and land. Liu Bei's merits are small, but he gets Xuzhou. However, Liu Bei is only the governor and has the responsibility of supervision. In such a comparison, the value of Xuzhou is still higher than that of Yanzhou Mu, which is not Cao Cao.

Liu Qing was always able to balance two bowls of water, so Cao Cao naturally accepted this arrangement.

"Come, Your Majesty, Lao Zhang will give you a drink!" Zhang Fei stood carelessly, holding a wine glass in one hand and a wine jar in the other. It was obvious that Liu Qing's arrangement made him very satisfied and he was very happy for Liu Bei.

Liu Qing raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.

Next, the theme of the banquet changed again and again, from Yuan Shao's defeat to Dong Zhuo, and from Yuan Shu's victory to Sun Jian. As the group of senior men became more and more drunk, the topics they talked about became more and more unrestrained, and finally they chatted.

While talking, it is inevitable to talk about men and women.

Guo Jia suggested that we go to Suiyang Flower Street to continue drinking in the second half.

What's outrageous is that they actually went... For this kind of activity, the good man Liu Qing naturally refused.

…

Liu Qing was in a hazy state of consciousness. When he woke up, he found that it was pitch black outside. It must have been midnight.

Just when I wanted to reach out and rub my still dazed head, I found that my right hand was pressed by something, so I tried to use my left hand out of habit, and found that——

The left hand was also pressed by something.

I squeezed it a little harder, but it was still soft.

Only then did Liu Qing realize that it should be Mi Ren, and then he realized something was wrong. Mi Ren was on the right, so who was on the left!

Liu Qing's remaining drunkenness immediately dissipated for the most part, and he truly realized that there were not only two people in the quilt, and judging from the touch of the skin, there was no doubt that it was a woman.

Damn, it can’t be Xiaohuan!

Mi Ren's little sister was supposed to be a dowry in the future. In theory, she was also Liu Qing's woman. There was nothing wrong with her. Liu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and stared into the darkness with his dark eyes.

"Your Majesty, have you sobered up?"

Suddenly, a voice came from the left, breaking the silence of the night.

"Um."

Liu Qing replied casually. Suddenly, his body stiffened and he realized something was wrong.

This voice is not Xiaohuan’s!

But——

Sweet!

"Depend on!"

Liu Qing shouted and sat up in shock. Why did she get into my bed?

Mi Ren was also awakened by Liu Qing's movements. He quickly pressed against Liu Qing and said softly: "Your Majesty, what's wrong? Are you having a nightmare?"

In the darkness, feeling the unique fragrance and voice of Mi Ren in his arms, Liu Qing asked, "She...why is she on my bed?!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. This...this is my concubine's own decision." Mi Ren said.

Liu Qing suddenly felt dark, turned on the lamp, and then confirmed that the other person on the bed was indeed Ganmei. At this time, he had taken off all his headgear, his hair fell softly on his shoulders, and most of his body was hidden under the quilt.

Her shoulders and jade neck were exposed, glowing with bursts of snow-white light by the weak candlelight.

"Why did you appear on my bed?" Liu Qing put on a coat and asked seriously.

First of all, this was inconsistent with his plan. Originally, Liu Qing was not looking for this sweet plum for himself, but wanted to make up for some historical injustice.

Secondly, due to the special status of both parties, Liu Qing had to wonder if Gan Mei had ulterior motives and took the opportunity to get close to him. After all, she was a member of the Gan family, indirectly a member of Tao Qian, and indirectly a member of Yuan Shao.

Ganmei didn't say anything, but Mi Ren took the words and said: "Your Majesty, I don't blame Sister Ganmei. I arranged it privately. Sister Ganmei and I hit it off at first sight. I saw that Your Majesty had not visited her for a long time, so I took advantage of Your Majesty's help."

When you're drunk, call her."

"Don't say any more!" Liu Qing continued to ask Gan Mei, intending to offend him, "But someone assigned you to get close to this king?"

Ganmei seemed to be frightened, hugging the quilt and shaking her head.

Mi Ren looked at Liu Qing anxiously, acting like a little girl who had made a mistake, begging Liu Qing for forgiveness.

It seems that this girl Mi Ren is really messing around.

What a sin, you shouldn't have placed Ganmei in the palace, or in other words, you shouldn't have sent Zhang Liao to look for her. Maybe it was because of Liu Qing that the butterfly effect inevitably occurred.

Maybe it happened when Liu Bei passed through Peixian County on his way to Xuzhou.

Fortunately, this matter was just what he was thinking, and he did not reveal it to anyone. In the eyes of outsiders, Ganmei was just a beautiful woman found by the King of Bohai.

King Bohai loves beauty, which is very common.

Even Mi Ren was misunderstood in this way. The two had a close relationship and accidentally became good sisters. It was because she believed that she was the woman of the King of Bohai that she dared to make such a decision that went against the family.

Yes, Mi Zhu regarded Gan Mei as an imaginary enemy along the way and wanted Mi Ren to be the first to approach King Bohai.

Liu Qing sighed softly and sat back on the bed. Mi Ren immediately leaned over from behind and called out coquettishly: "Your Majesty~"

"Okay, okay, I am just surprised and don't mean to blame you."

"Really? Your Majesty won't blame Sister Ganmei anymore?"

"If I want to punish you, I will punish you too!" Liu Qing reached back and slapped the area fiercely.

"Your Majesty, please get back in bed quickly to avoid catching a cold."

Speaking of which, it's really a bit chilly.

Liu Qing retracted his legs and went to bed and returned to the quilt. At this moment, Ganmei suddenly picked up a thin shirt, covered her chest with it, and jumped out of the quilt. Liu Qing felt that his eyes were white, and he suddenly looked straight.

.

"Daughter of the people, please retire!" Gan Mei stood in front of Liu Qing, bowed slightly, and then was about to get out of bed.

Liu Qing had quick eyes and quick hands, and grabbed him, with a very reluctant expression on his face: "Now that you're here, just stay!"

Ganmei was startled after hearing this, her cheeks turned red.

Mi Ren quickly pulled Ganmei back and muttered: "Look, I said the king is lustful and will like you very much!"

"My king has only been out for a few days, but you are really becoming lawless!" Liu Qing threatened to fight again, and Mi Ren quickly begged for mercy.

"Your Majesty, please spare your life! Your Majesty, please spare your life!"

Liu Qing looked at Mi Ren, then at Gan Mei, and suddenly had an idea.
