Chapter 26: Wrongly blaming the Emperor Since Sun Wukong was unwilling to stay in Luoyang, Liu Xie would not keep him either. However, even if he wanted to stay in Luoyang, Liu Xie was unwilling to let him stay. After all, with his temper, if he often met Dukao and other Denor survivors, something bad would probably happen soon. To avoid this and to avoid any further trouble he might cause. The best way is to let him go back to his own Flower-Fruit Mountain. The Han Dynasty is currently in a period of rapid development. As mentioned before, before the potential threat of the Fiery Sun is resolved, Denor is definitely a reliable ally of the Earth and the Han Dynasty. In the original plot, the reason why Sun Wukong was able to repel the invasion of the Lieyang civilization was that the remnants of Denor must have made a lot of efforts and their contributions were indispensable. Otherwise, the Lieyang civilization only needs to hold back Sun Wukong, and the Earth can be at their mercy. No matter how good Sun Wukong is at fighting, he can't defeat four hands with just one fist.
Now the plot has changed. If nothing unexpected happens, the earth will be completely ruled by the Han Dynasty in the next few hundred years. If the remnants of Denor are gone, will Sun Wukong and the Han alone be able to cope with the invasion of the Lieyang civilization in the future? Liu Xie didn't know. But if he could have another choice that would increase his chances of winning in the future, he would definitely choose it. The Han Dynasty needs senior talents from Denor until the threat of the Fiery Sun is resolved. Therefore, before that, he must maintain the relationship between Dahan and Denor and not let anything lead to the breakdown of the cooperative relationship between the two parties. Sun Wukong left. Thinking. Liu Xie immediately left the palace and went to Shenhe Academy outside Luoyang City. No matter what his current relationship with Gana is, Dukao is the leader of the remnants of Denor after all. This time, Dukao suffered a great defeat at the hands of Sun Wukong again. Therefore, he had to take Dukao's feelings into consideration and go to comfort him. When he arrived at the location of Shenhe Academy, Liu Xie immediately felt that with the arrangements of the remaining Denor people and the cooperation of the Han side, Shenhe Academy had already taken shape. If the Sun Wukong incident had not happened, the Han Dynasty could have basically arranged for people to come in and receive education. "Your Majesty, why are you here?" He stopped at the entrance of Shenhe College for a while. Among the Denor survivors who were busy coming and going inside, someone recognized him at a glance, even though he was wearing plain clothes this time. Upon hearing this, Liu Xie immediately recognized the identity of this Denor survivor. He was one of the two assistants accompanying Gana. "It's Brother Richie, I'm here to see General Dukao." Liu Xie called out his name and nodded to him in greeting with a smile. "So the Emperor still remembers my name. I thought he had forgotten me!"
The assistant named Richie seemed very happy when he heard Liu Xie call out his name first. The so-called promotion of rice favors and fighting against rice hatred. When they came with Gana before, Liu Xie treated them to delicious food every day, a big banquet every three days and a small banquet every day. However, after Dukao and other remnants of Denor arrived, Liu Xie never hosted a banquet for him and his other assistant again. Instead, they focused their attention on the senior talents and elites among the remnants of Denor. The gap between the past and the present was so huge that he gradually became dissatisfied and even resentful! I feel that Liu Xie is simply a hypocritical guy. When I needed them before, I tried to please them every day, but now that I have seen someone better, I have forgotten all the previous ones. But now it seems that is not the case? Did I wrongly blame the Emperor? Seeing the assistant named Richie's reaction, Liu Xie immediately guessed what the other party was thinking. So, he continued to say calmly: "Of course I remember, how could I forget your name?" "It's just that I've been busy these days, so I neglected Brother Richie. I hope Brother Richie won't blame me!" Although Liu Xie was just saying it in a joking tone. But this also instantly made all the dissatisfaction that Richie had felt in the past few days disappear. "How can you blame His Majesty the Emperor?" After all, he also knew about what happened to Sun Wukong today. Liu Xie was so busy that he forgot and it was normal that he didn't care about these little people. "Let's go, Brother Rich, please take me to see General Dukao. We can talk while we walk." As he spoke, Liu Xie used his arm-in-arm skill again and pulled Richie towards Shenhe Academy. He never easily hates small people. Because no matter what, the other party can't threaten him. Moreover, there are times when small people may not be able to accomplish anything, but they are more than enough to cause trouble. Therefore, Liu Xie would never tire of showing favor to small people as long as it did not cost him much. After Liu Xie's series of operations. Richie's little assistant was already feeling dizzy, and he happily took Liu Xie to Dukao's residence with light steps. This is a separate courtyard where Dukao lives. Other high-level Nord talents like Gana, Yuqin, and others, basically have their own separate courtyard in the Shenhe Academy, just like Dukao. After all, this was a royal palace before, so it's not surprising that it has such a large area. "Your Majesty, General Dukao is inside. You can just go in."
After he went in and informed Dukao, Richie came out and spoke to Liu Xie. "Good work." Liu Xie nodded to him and walked straight into the courtyard. After entering, Dukao did not come out to greet him. Perhaps he was still angry, or perhaps he looked down on Liu Xie, a mortal emperor, from the bottom of his heart. In any case, this time he was too lazy to even put on a show. However, Liu Xie not only didn't care, but felt that he had made the right decision. Humans are emotional animals. Even an old guy like Dukao, who has lived for thousands of years, cannot avoid being swayed by his emotions. Therefore, if he didn't come today and didn't care about it in the future, Dukao might really get more and more angry and do something irrational. When Liu Xie entered the courtyard, he saw that Dukao had not closed the door and was just daydreaming. So Liu Xie had no choice but to ask, "General Dukao, can I go in?" Hearing this, Dukao came to his senses and stood up: "Your Majesty, please come in." After inviting Liu Xie to take a seat, Dukao just looked at Liu Xie without saying a word. Liu Xie first poured himself a cup of tea, and then poured Dukao a cup, and then he said, "General Dukao, are you still thinking about what happened this morning?" Dukao nodded. He was actually thinking about how to retaliate, or even kill Sun Wukong. The reason why he had such thoughts was partly because he was indeed swayed by his emotions, but the other half also came from the pressure from the remnants of Denor. Sun Wukong's light "I'm sorry" was regarded as an explanation to him. But could he just use these words to explain to the remaining people of Denor? (End of this chapter)
