Chapter 682: To borrow or not to borrow

Jizhou, Yecheng Mansion

Yuan Shaogao sat in the center of the chamber, with a majestic face, which made people feel extraordinary at first glance. However, after getting along with him for a long time, I will understand that in fact, Yuan Chang is just a person whose heart is higher than heaven and whose life is thinner than paper.

Originally, Yuan Shao took advantage of the prestige of the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family to obtain the position of the leader of the alliance in the war against Dong Zhuo. If it were replaced by Cao Cao, he might have gathered these forces under his command a long time ago, so as to control the general trend of the world. However, this good chess game was stinked by Yuan Shao, the anti-Dong alliance was torn apart, and Yuan Shao only occupied one place in Jizhou. If it weren't for the fact that there were many military generals under his command, and there was no shortage of talented people, it was not certain whether Yuan Shao would be able to occupy Youzhou, Bingzhou and Qingzhou later. After occupying the land of Sizhou, Yuan Shao was a little inflated, and before the war with Cao Cao, he first imprisoned Tian Feng, and did not listen to the good advice of frustration, but accepted the strategies of Guo Tu, Chun Yuqiong and several others, which eventually led to the defeat of Guandu and withdrew from the chess game for the world. It can be said that Yuan Shao's defeat was entirely caused by his own death.

At this moment, Yuan Shao gathered the martial arts under his command naturally not to show his majesty, and after everyone arrived, Yuan Shao said loudly: "Everyone, Youzhou Mu Yuan often wants to go to Chang'an to welcome the Son of Heaven to Youzhou Dingdu, and said, 'The Son of Heaven guards the country, and the king dies in Sheji', the northern alien race has repeatedly invaded my Central Plains territory, and the Son of Heaven should sit on the frontier, resist the alien race, and promote the prestige of my Han Dynasty, I don't know what you think?"

Yuan often wants to welcome the Son of Heaven to Youzhou, naturally there must be a good reason, and it cannot be said that it is to 'coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes'. In that case, Yuan Shao estimated that he would be the first to jump out and oppose it, and he actually wanted to sit on Lao Tzu's head. Therefore, Yuan Chang moved out the reason why Zhu Di moved the capital. Moreover, if you want to meet the Son of Heaven, you can't avoid Yuan Shao's sphere of influence, since this is the case, Yuan Chang informed Yuan Shao openly, if Yuan Shao has an idea, he will naturally not borrow the way; if Yuan Shao has no idea, then why is it difficult to borrow the way?

"Lord, my subordinates think it's impossible!"

He has been advising Yuan Shao to welcome the Son of Heaven back to Jizhou, so as to control the Son of Heaven in his hands, and he can pretend to be the edict of the Son of Heaven to give orders to all parties in the world. However, Yuan Shao gave up this intention under the persuasion of Guo Tu and several others. Now that Yuan Chang wants to welcome the Son of Heaven back to Youzhou, how can he agree.

"The lord, my subordinates suggested that the lord could welcome the Son of Heaven back to Jizhou, but the lord did not agree. Now, if Yuan Chang welcomes the Son of Heaven to Youzhou, Yuan Chang is the younger brother of the lord, how will the Son of Heaven treat the lord at that time, thinking that the lord's loyalty is not as good as Yuan Chang, and it may have an adverse impact on the lord's reputation. Therefore, the subordinates thought that it was not the lord's fault to welcome the Son of Heaven back to Jizhou, otherwise, Yuan Chang must not be allowed to welcome the Son of Heaven to Youzhou. ”

"Hmm!"

Yuan Shao stroked his long beard, and seemed to agree with Fu Zhi's opinion. For Yuan Shao, what he values most is reputation, and if his reputation is affected, he will naturally refuse to do it.

"Lord, my subordinates think it's wrong to say this!"

Needless to say, it was naturally Guo Tu, an old opponent who jumped out.

Fu Zhu and Guo Tu have been celebrating for a long time, or they are hostile in terms of personality.

He is loyal and upright, outstanding, and knows how to change, not a foolish person, while Guo Tu is a villain with flattering words.

Fu Zhu and Guo Tu were originally subordinates of Jizhou Mu Han Fu, and it was Guo Tu and Xin Ping who persuaded Han Fu to give Jizhou to Yuan Shao, but only Fu Zhu, Geng Wu, and Min Chun persuaded Han Fu. It's a pity that Han Fu didn't listen to them, and still gave Jizhou to Yuan Shao, and finally died because of it. Geng Wu and Min Chun were killed because they resisted Yuan Shao, and Fu Zhu was invited by Yuan Shao to be a strategist, and some people thought that Fu Zhu could be regarded as loyal men in doing so, and they were not as good as Geng Wu and Min Chun? However, when you think about it, Jizhou was not attacked by Yuan Shao, but Han Fu felt that his talent and prestige were not as good as Yuan Shao, and took the initiative to give it to Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao and Han Fu were only the transfer of power, and there was no fight, so Fu Zhu's practice naturally could not be regarded as a rebellion. Later, when Yuan Shao was defeated in the battle of Guandu, Fu Zhu was captured by Cao Cao before he escaped, and Fu Zhu would rather die than surrender, although Cao Cao did not kill him, Fu Zhu secretly planned to escape back to Yuan Shao's arms and failed, and was finally killed. It can be seen that frustration is loyal and changeable. After being captured, he did not look for death and life, but found an opportunity to escape, such a person is actually the most terrifying. Those who are caught and will die are not worth worrying about.

Guo Tu glanced at him and said impassionedly: "Lord, my subordinates think that since Youzhou Mu wants to borrow the Tao, the lord can naturally agree. First of all, the lord is the elder brother of the Youzhou pastor, if the Youzhou Mu succeeds in rescuing the Son of Heaven from Li Dao and Guo Yan's thieves, which is naturally invaluable to the lord, if there is no support from the lord, how can the Youzhou Mu come to today; if the Youzhou Mu fails, there is no harm in the lord, and the people of the world only know that the lord has made efforts to rescue the Son of Heaven, but it is Youzhou Mu who has not succeeded, and cannot be blamed on the lord; secondly, if the Son of Heaven arrives in Youzhou, but there is an edict that must be passed from the lord's sphere of influence, in this way, the lord does not have to worry about the Son of Heaven being divided after arriving in Jizhou, and can also indirectly control the Son of Heaven in his hands, so why not?”

No matter how good Fu Zhu's strategy is, as long as he proposes it, Guo Tu will inevitably oppose it. It can be said that Guo Tu's approach is completely for the sake of opposition, and this kind of person is naturally the most disgusting. However, his words can often be adopted by Yuan Shao, and I have to say that this kind of person is really uncomfortable. It's no wonder that after Cao Cao defeated Yuan Tan, he didn't even say a word about surrendering, and killed Guo Tu, and he didn't even let go of his wife, sons, and daughters.

"Lord, my subordinates think what Guo Tu said is very true!"

As Guo Tu's good friend, Xin Ping naturally stood up to support him, and said: "My lord, there are spies who have come to report that Cao Cao in Yanzhou also has the intention of welcoming the Son of Heaven. Now that Youzhou Mu is also going to Chang'an to participate, why don't the lord fulfill them, then Youzhou Mu He Cao Cao will inevitably have a fight, plus Chang'an's Li Dao and Guo Yan and other thieves, there is no need to have a dragon fight, so that their power can be damaged, and the lord can sit on the wall and watch. But if there is wind and grass, the lord can also find an opportunity to send troops to get the greatest benefits. Therefore, the subordinates thought that the lord did not need to stop the Youzhou pastor, and should give it convenience. ”

"Well, haha, this is very much in line with my intentions! After Yuan Shao heard this, he immediately laughed and agreed with Yuan Chang's intention.

Of course, in fact, when Yuan Chang sent an envoy to find Yuan Shao, he also promised benefits, so Yuan Shao could easily agree to this request.

So, what are the benefits that Yuan Chang promised?
