Reincarnation in the Three Kingdoms Era with a System

Chapter 668: 668 Finding Joy Amidst Busyness

Luoyang, Chengde Palace.

Upon hearing of the annihilation of Ding Yuan's 20,000-strong army, Liu Xie was so terrified he collapsed to the ground.

Now, the vast city of Luoyang, with its original Imperial Guard of less than 30,000, plus Ding Yuan's 30,000, could barely hold out.

If war truly broke out, his position as crown prince would likely be lost; Liu Bian could easily ascend the throne, rendering him a cripple.

"Teacher, the only way now is for you to go out of the city to negotiate. Go and ask Lu Ming what he really wants."

Liu Xie had no choice but to entrust the task to his teacher, Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi was a renowned Confucian scholar of the time, unlike the upright officials previously sent out.

If Lu Ming were to humiliate Lu Zhi, the consequences would be far-reaching. It's safe to say that, along with the Yuan family, not a single scholar would remain loyal to Lu Ming; his path would be completely cut off.

"This old minister obeys the decree."

Lu Zhi bowed. He wasn't adept at handling such complex situations, and this was the only option for now.

Empress Dowager Dong, residing in Chang Le Palace, rarely ventured out and was unaware of what was happening outside.

Her body was becoming increasingly swollen, and the baby in her womb was developing rapidly. She tried to move around as little as possible to avoid revealing her pregnancy.

After Lu Zhi left, Liu Xie came to pay his respects to Empress Dowager Dong.

Upon hearing Liu Xie's report, Empress Dowager Dong's expression, hidden behind the beaded curtain, became utterly astonished. Her lover, the father of her unborn child, had actually fought with her grandson.

This seemed utterly absurd.

"Xie'er, I'll write you a letter. Go and deliver it to Governor Lu. I did him some favors in the past; don't go after him anymore. I'll ensure he won't harm you, or threaten your position as Crown Prince. I can even have him witness your coronation ceremony and protect you."

"Really? Grandmother, is this true?"

Liu Xie knew all along that there was no point in dealing with Lu Ming. He might have coveted Lu Ming's territory, but that was for the sake of having a voice. An emperor without a voice is nothing.

"I'm not lying to you. Here's what we'll do: hand over the East Gate to the Governor of Liangzhou. After you ascend the throne, order him to withdraw to Chang'an. Without orders, he must not lead troops out of Hangu Pass. I will personally go to Chang'an. As long as I'm alive, I'll keep a close eye on him. Go, and be polite. Your sister, Princess Wannian, is married to him; don't be disrespectful to your brother-in-law."

After much deliberation, Empress Dowager Dong had only this one solution.

Lu Ming wouldn't feel comfortable entering unless she surrendered a single city gate.

Therefore, she would have no chance to leave.

As for her grandson's ascension to the throne, he was even less important to her than the child in her womb. One was her child, the other her grandson; naturally, the child was closer.

"Yes, Grandmother."

Liu Xie had no choice. He wasn't confident in dealing with Lu Ming; otherwise, he wouldn't have resorted to such a tactic.

Strength is the foundation of negotiation. Without strength, the emperor's position is merely that of a puppet.

Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Song Jian, who had been captured and brought back, were imprisoned here, each in a separate prison cart.

They received only a bowl of porridge and a bowl of water each day.

There was no persuasion to surrender, no whipping; they were simply placed in a corner.

Lu Ming didn't have time to persuade them to surrender. He would put them aside for now and deal with other matters later.

At least, he didn't intend to release them unless they surrendered. They would remain imprisoned until they surrendered and submitted.

When Lu Zhi arrived at the military camp with the letter, Xu Shu received him, with Lu Su accompanying him.

This negotiation would determine the subsequent interests.

If they couldn't reach an agreement, then they would have to fight...

And at that time, Liu Xie would definitely have abdicated. Losing the power struggle and wanting to ascend the throne again would be impossible.

At this moment, Lu Ming was enjoying the seductive service of Madam Du.

He pressed himself against Madam Du's smooth, naked body, feeling her writhing like a lively, energetic white fish, instantly feeling incredibly stimulated.

Madam Du herself had a good figure, without an ounce of excess fat, full of strength, giving Lu Ming extraordinary pleasure.

Feeling Madam Du's vagina sucking hard on his glans, Lu Ming shuddered with excitement, almost ejaculating.

His hands instinctively caressed Madam Du's two full, round, snow-white breasts, kneading them.

Gazing at the alluring face beneath him, he was almost mesmerized.

This woman was truly beautiful, captivating, and the more he looked, the more he wanted to fuck her!

He straddled the beautiful and sexy Madam Du, thrusting his penis directly into her slippery vagina. With a soft "plop," his entire shaft slid in smoothly.

Because Madam Du's vagina was completely wet with her juices, Lu Ming's penis entered without any resistance.

However, Madam Du's vagina was tighter than Yan's, perhaps due to its superior quality.

Lu Ming felt Madam Du's vaginal walls contracting repeatedly, tightly gripping his penis. That slippery, tight feeling excited him immensely, even though it wasn't his first time.

Each time he penetrated a woman's body,

this feeling was particularly intense, incredibly pleasurable!

He struggled to control his excitement, thrusting his erect penis rapidly into Madam Du's vagina…

Each time, his large penis plunged all the way in, the glans hitting the very core of Madam Du's beautiful vulva, causing her to moan and groan, her juices flowing freely.

Her plump, firm buttocks arched upwards, welcoming Lu Ming's thrusts.

"Mmm…ah…"

Madam Du screamed, her body convulsing a few times before she reached orgasm!

Lu Ming chuckled lewdly, his penis still rock hard. He pulled his large penis out of Madam Du's vagina and pressed Madam Yan down beside him.

Although Lu Ming had played with Madam Yan's large buttocks countless times, seeing those two exquisitely plump cheeks still made his penis harden, and his blood boil.

He approached Madam Yan from behind, his thick, long penis erect, and spread her buttocks apart with both hands. He grasped the shaft and pushed it into her cleft, the glans quickly touching her wet, slippery slit.

The pleasure of that genital contact sent a shiver through him.

But he didn't rush to penetrate. Instead, he rubbed the glans back and forth against her slit, making Madam Yan unbearably itchy. She said shyly, "Ah...please, husband...favor...ah...this concubine...take...ah...husband...ah...please...husband...use your big cock...to...severely...teach...this concubine's...slutty cunt...ah..."
