114. Chapter 114

As soon as Shen Xian's words fell, Zhou Yu squirted out a mouthful of tea, and while saying "sorry", he took the silk handkerchief from Diao Chan's hand and wiped the tea stains from the corners of his mouth.

Seeing Shen Xian's indifferent look of "the weather is good today", the doubts and absurdity that slowly rose in Zhou Yu's heart were gradually dispelled. Although Shen Xian is sometimes unreliable, she will not joke about this kind of thing, and everyone else is very calm, especially Cai Yan, who nodded at Zhou Yu comfortingly, so what Shen Xian said should be true.

So Zhou Yu happily accepted the setting that the third sister was actually the princess of the dynasty.

How can it be!

Zhou Yu pressed his temple with one hand, he took a deep breath, and said slowly: "Third sister, you're not joking?" ”

"Do you think this kind of thing is a joke?" Shen Xian looked at Zhou Yu faintly: "Actually, I only found out not long ago, and I was almost scared to death at that time." ”

"You-" Zhou Yu still felt that his brain was a little messy, and he subconsciously waved his hand: "You let me slowly, slowly." ”

"Take your time." Shen Xian motioned Diao Chan to serve Zhou Yu another cup of tea: "I set aside a whole day to discuss this matter with you. ”

Zhou Yu temporarily and reluctantly accepted Shen Xian's new identity, of course, he still needs time to get used to it, and then look at Sun Ce's side...... Well? Why do you seem to be so calm?

Faced with Cai Yan's doubts, Shen Xian sighed, she walked to Sun Ce's side, raised her hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and shook it again.

"Big brother?" Shen Xian patted Sun Ce's shoulder: "Are you okay?" ”

"Ah, oh, I'm fine." Sun Ce came back to his senses suddenly, he smiled at Shen Xian, touched his head and said embarrassedly: "I was distracted just now, I didn't hear clearly, third sister, what are you going to say again?" ”

Shen Xian cleared her throat: "I said, in fact, the current saint is my own brother. ”

“…… Distracted again, do you want to do it again? ”

Shen Xian said helplessly: "Big brother, you didn't get distracted, and you didn't hear it wrong, that's what I'm going to say." ”

Sun Ce was stunned, he first stiffened into a statue little by little, and then gradually weathered into sand as if he had stood in the wind and rain for thousands of years, and was blown by a passing breeze, and he couldn't fight it anymore with a bang.

Sun Ce snatched the wolf pen from Guo Jia's hand with a brush, and bit the pen shaft under the gaze of everyone crying and laughing, and lay on the table with a distressed face: "No, no, no, this is impossible!" ”

"Why can't it be?" Shen Xian squatted beside Sun Ce and poked his bulging cheeks.

"You are so handsome, he is so cowardly, how can you be a family!" Sun Ce swore and said: "Look at our family! My Dad! I! And fragrant! ”

Shen Xian pondered for a moment: "You seem to have forgotten Zhongmou. ”

Sun Ce waved his hand impatiently: "Oh, Sun Zhongmou knew that he picked it up at a glance, and it was definitely not born to our family." ”

Shen Xian burst out laughing: "Brother, if you say this, my mother is going to kill you." ”

Anyway, Sun Ce refused to believe that Shen Xian was the daughter of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, and he kept babbling that Shen Xian looked so much like him, it must be his own sister, and she had something to do with today's saints? In the end, Zhou Yu couldn't bear it anymore, and copied the bamboo slips and smashed Sun Ce into a mess, which made Sun Ce a lot more honest, and passed the stage of "refusing to believe" and stepped into the door of "reshaping the three views".

Sun Ce sat on the side and established a new worldview on his own, and Shen Xian sent Diao Chan to invite Gan Ning and Xun Yu to discuss how to arrange next.

Cao Cao played his cards so unreasonably to destroy Yuan Shu and then Lu Bu, taking advantage of Yuan Shao's use of troops against Si Li to take Xuzhou, and retreating thirty miles outside Lujiang County to show sincerity, which is equivalent to giving Shen Xian Yangzhou, Jiujiang, Danyang and Wu County, which originally belonged to Yuan Shu, in disguise. suddenly got such a big gift, how to arrange, really have to be summed up.

"Cao Mengde of the three counties of Yangzhou has to send it if he wants to, and if he doesn't want to send it, it's ours." Guo Jia smiled slightly: "With Gong Jin and Bo Fu stationed in Lujiang, and Cao Mengde has a private alliance with us, if he doesn't want to be stabbed when dealing with Yuan Benchu, he will definitely not offend us." ”

Cai Yan agrees with Guo Jia's view: "Yangzhou was originally the place where Yuan Highway operated for several years, and after he lost power, these three counties either became independent or followed his only son, Yuan Minghui, and Yuan Gongzi was rescued by Bo Fu. ”

In addition, Danyang Taishou is Sun Ce's uncle, and this relationship goes without saying; And Wu Jun had already fallen at Zhou Yu's feet. The surrender of the six counties of Yangzhou is simply a matter of no suspense.

"It's a pity that Runan ......" Zhou Yu sighed lightly: "Cao Mengde took over in the name of Yuan Benchu, and we really can't intervene." ”

The Yuan family's hometown is Runan County, which is their base camp, although Yuzhou has been fighting endlessly for many years, basically in a state of ownerlessness, and is regarded as a battlefield by everyone by default, but the Yuan family still has a lot of influence there. Yuan Shu can take Runan County, Yuan Shao can also do it, coupled with the secret operation of various families in Yuzhou, it is normal for Shen Xian to have nowhere to speak.

"This is nothing, there are gains and losses." Shen Xian waved her hand indifferently: "It's already very profitable to be able to catch the whole Yangzhou this time, you can't be too greedy." ”

Besides, Shen Xian and Cao Cao still have an alliance, since Cao Cao has taken the initiative to back down and leave Yangzhou to Shen Xian, then Shen Xian should let go of a Runan County.

Xun Yu nodded, the expression on his face was very gratified: "It's good that the lord can think like this, and he wants to do his best to pacify the three counties of Yangzhou and Jingzhou, as for Wuling, Guiyang, Lingling and other places, ......"

Jingzhou was cut by Shen Xian from Jiangxia County and Nanjun as the line, directly cutting off the connection between Nanyang County and other states and counties, Liu Biao was in a hurry, and it was impossible to cross the Yangtze River to Wuling and other three counties to move rescue troops under Shen Xian's strict guard, and Wuling and other counties were mostly ethnic minorities and bandits, and the number of people in the Central Plains was scarce, so they were not very under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and Liu Biao had no way to take these areas. So although Shen Xian only occupied the three counties of Changsha, Jiangxia and Nanjun, in fact, the only one that could still be held by Liu Biao was Nanyang County, where he was now.

"Leave these areas alone for now." Shen Xian thought for a while and said: "Wenhe will be back soon, ask him about the specific situation, he had to stay in Changsha at that time, but if he gave me a guarantee, he will definitely stabilize the situation around him." ”

Xun Yu has always been relieved of Jia Xu, so he nodded and didn't say anything more.

Gan Ning spoke: "Lord, you sent Weiyou to Hanzhong to follow ...... Right? He pointed to the sky, his face full of excitement: "To be honest, I can't wait." ”

Xun Yu glanced at Gan Ning quietly, probably very dissatisfied with his reactionary thoughts, but after thinking about it, he found that he actually had faint expectations for Shen Xian in his heart......

So Xun Yu pursed his lips and lowered his head without saying a word, he needed some time to reverse his thoughts.

Before leaving, Xun You had a long talk with Xun Yu all night, and Xun You said at that time: "I still say the same thing, what this world needs is a decisive emperor, not a young monarch surrounded by tigers and wolves." I do not deny that if we do our best to assist, he will one day grow up to be a qualified emperor. But there is not so much time, the people can't afford to wait, and the country can't afford to wait. ”

Xun Yu was silent, Xun Yu continued: "Loyal and patriotic, not foolish, it is also a kind of loyalty to find a monarch who can lead this country to prosperity on his behalf, and then assist her to ascend to the throne." If you want to protect the world of the Han family, the lord is also a royal bloodline, why not? ”

After saying this, Xun Yu left, and he didn't talk nonsense, because he knew that Xun Yu had already listened.

What happens next is up to his own thoughts and decisions.

Shen Xian looked at Gan Ning helplessly: "You can just talk about it here, if you go out and talk nonsense and be reported to Yuan Situ, I won't be responsible for fishing for you." ”

Yes, Yuan Shao was promoted without accident after welcoming the Son of Heaven, and now he is at the head of the hundred officials, high-spirited and arrogant, Yang Biao, a loyal minister of the emperor's lineage, was kicked into the position of Sikong by Yuan Shao, and Shen Xian continued to sit in her newly released position as a lieutenant, and there was a faint tendency to fight against Yuan Shao.

When today's forces gradually became clear after repeated battles and killings, the thirteen states in the world, except for Jiaozhou, no one wanted to deal with it, and the south was basically all Shen Xian's territory; Cao Cao occupied the three states of Yanyu and Xu; Ma Teng and Han Sui, who was still breathing, fought to the death in Liangzhou as if there was no one around; In addition, the remaining territory in the north is all in the hands of Yuan Shao, he controls the three states of Youjiqing and Qing, and also threatens Si Li, and although the state is not in Yuan Shao's sphere of influence, Yuan Shao has specially sent an army to resist the invasion of foreign tribes on the border of Bingzhou, and others are very tacitly not to harass the troops who sneak up on the border. After all, everyone understands a truth, no matter how these princes and warlords of the Han Dynasty fight to the death, behind closed doors, this is their own business, and foreigners who want to intervene are not qualified.

"You are all too captains, you are in charge of the army, and you can't do Yuan Benchu as a Situ?" Gan Ning teased.

Shen Xian threw a roll of bamboo slips at Gan Ning: "What about the captain, Yuan Situ still records Shangshushi, I am just a vacant position, and my name is loud, and I don't understand anything to deceive you." ”

Shen Xian estimated that when her cheap brother gave her the title of Taiwei, she didn't think about giving too many rights, but she was afraid that she would rebel directly, so she left the rights of Shang Shuling to Yang Biao with the intention of secretly restraining Mingsheng, but unfortunately at this time and that time, Shen Xian did not take Shang Shuling's position, and Yang Biao did not keep it, but cheapened Yuan Shao, who entered Beijing to welcome the Son of Heaven.

I don't know if Liu Xie regrets it now, Shen Xian thought a little gloatingly, instead of letting Yuan Shao coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, it is better to leave the power to Shen Xian, so that it is a family, at least it looks good.

"Although it is not appropriate to conflict with Si Li, there is no need to endure it all the time." After digesting, Zhou Yu was resurrected with full blood on the spot, and he pondered for a moment and said: "Yuan Benchu coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and others can't scare us, third sister, you really have you." ”

Shen Xian smiled.

"There's no other choice now, just guard against it." Cai Yan sighed: "Whoever makes the first move will fall behind." ”

"And the ...... over there in Liangzhou" Xun Yu frowned slightly: "After Yuan Benchu welcomed the Son of Heaven, I was afraid that he would secretly support Han Wenyue, who was opposite to us, and suppress Ma Shoucheng, as for what to do...... For example, the threat of sending troops, the exchange of hostages, and so on. ”

Yuan Shao wants to announce that Ma Teng's family has entered Chang'an in the name of the Son of Heaven, Shen Xian really can't stop it, who stops who will resist the decree.

Shen Xian's focus now is Yuan Shao, who knows if Yuan Situ will suddenly send troops to recruit Shen Xian, seeing that there are fewer and fewer people competing in the world, and it will be the final in the end, and it is the idea of most people to solve the most difficult trouble first.

It's a pity that Yuan Shao is not an ordinary person.
