Yuan Shu actually had thoughts in his heart.

He knew that if he wanted to be the emperor, he must need the support of many people, the scholars under his command, the heroes and the powerful who depended on him, and the army, they had to support him, and he had the confidence to be the emperor.

Guo Peng also has to support, Tao Qian also has to support, the more people who support the better, so that he can sit on the throne.

Of course, there is also an important premise, that is, the emperor of Han Tianzi should be weakened, embarrassed, or simply die, so that he is the most powerful for himself.

Yuan Shu even thought about assassinating the Emperor of Han, so it was a hundred.

The Son of Heaven is still young, has no descendants, no heirs, just a single seedling, dies, and then obeys the will of heaven and becomes the emperor, which is the best, but this is different from the assassination of Yuan Shao and the assassination of Chen Wang Liu Chong, this is the Son of Heaven.

Yuan Shu still had concerns and doubts about the Son of Heaven, and did not dare to attack the Son of Heaven directly, thinking about it, he still did not send someone to assassinate the Son of Heaven, but actively prepared for the emperor.

Creating a momentum, proclaiming his victories, etc., and also seeking out some well-known magicians and weftists.

Yuan Shu knocked on the side and asked them if they had the life of the emperor's emperor, they really didn't dare to talk nonsense, they could only be vague, for fear that Yuan Shu would get angry and kill him, or really be the emperor.

Yuan Shu couldn't get the answers he wanted, so he thought they didn't have the skills and continued to search for more famous warlocks.

Finally, on a certain day in March of the second year of Xingping, Yuan Shu found a warlock from Hanoi, named Zhang Xiao, who was not small, not only good at looking at qi, but also good at divination.

Yuan Shu personally received Zhang Gang and asked Zhang Gang to divinate him.

Zhang Yongshen babbled a hexagram, looked at it for a long time, and suddenly looked at Yuan Shu with very surprised eyes.

"What's wrong?"

Yuan Shu asked hurriedly.

Zhang Feng opened his mouth, seemed to hesitate, hesitated for a while, and then spoke: "The general's hexagram shows that the general's life is unspeakably expensive. ”

Yuan Shu frowned.

I'm the leader of the family of the fourth world and the third prince, of course I'm too expensive, what's the difference between what you say and what you don't say?

"Anything else?"

"Don't disturb the general, what I'm saying is expensive, unspeakable."

Zhang Xiao looked around, got closer to Yuan Shu, and said, "This is expensive, not the other." ”

！！！

Yuan Shu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly came to his senses.

"What do you mean by that? Be in more detail! ”

"This ...... General, the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty is still here, and we are all Hanchen, how can I say this kind of thing? ”

"If you want to say it, you can say it!"

Yuan Shu's heart was pounding, and he already had a premonition.

"Hexagram...... Hexagram display...... The general has the treasure of the Son of Heaven...... Therefore, there is a destiny to be the Son of Heaven. ”

Zhang Yong hesitated, dodged, and told Yuan Shu everything for a while.

Yuan Shu felt a burst of indescribable joy rushing from his heart to his head, and his brain was boiling instantly.

He finally heard what he wanted to hear!

The other crooked ones who don't talk about things are charlatans, and this is the real thing!

Yuan Highway Certification!

This must not be false, this must not be false!

The treasure of the Son of Heaven doesn't it refer to the jade seal of the country?

And I have the matter of the heirloom jade seal, this person can't know!

So, it's true! I have the destiny to be the Son of Heaven! It's true!

Yuan Shu received great psychological comfort, and the ambition to be the emperor beat violently, and it could no longer be calmed.

Yuan Shu was overjoyed for a long time, and gave Zhang Xiao a large sum of money to let him take care of his mouth.

At this time, Liu Xiena, who had returned to the east, was finally able to set off again after a pause for more than a month.

The reason is very simple, Guo Yan, who obstructed Liu Xie's return to the east and wanted to bring Liu Xie back to Yixian County in the west of Chang'an to be controlled by himself, was defeated.

After a long negotiation, Guo Yan lost patience and tried to lead his troops to forcibly snatch Liu Xie, but was defeated.

He lost almost all his soldiers and horses, and the general trend was gone, so he slipped away and went to rejoin Li Dao.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Dong Cheng, Yang Ding, Zhang Ji and others hurriedly took Liu Xie and the courtiers to the direction of Luoyang.

After Li Wei learned of this, he realized that he should not have given up control of Liu Xie, and he regretted it very much, and immediately led his troops to chase after him.

At the end of March, Liu Xie's convoy came to Huayin County, and Duan Xuan, the general of Huayin County, personally led the troops to meet Liu Xie with supplies, and provided food to Liu Xie, who was very hungry, and his ministers.

Liu Xie and his ministers were hungry and panicked, and immediately began to eat heavily, and during this period, Yang Ding, one of the generals who escorted Liu Xie, suddenly said to Liu Xie, saying that Duan Xuan had counter-intentions and wanted to murder Liu Xie.

Yang Ding and Duan Xuan used to be colleagues and had some festivals, and the relationship between the two was very poor.

Liu Xie didn't believe Yang Ding's words, and as a result, Dong Cheng and others joined Yang Ding to frame Duan Xuan, and also found various evidence to prove that Duan Xuan wanted to rebel.

General Liu Xie was suspicious, but Yang Ding had already discussed with Dong Cheng to prevent Liu Xie from falling under Duan Xuan's control, so they jointly sent troops to attack Duan Xuan.

In order to show his loyalty, Duan Xuan commanded the army to defend while sending food to Liu Xie and the hundred officials every day as usual, Liu Xie knew Duan Xuan's loyalty, but he was powerless to stop the actions of Dong Cheng and others.

Under the banner of the king's master, they didn't even ignore the orders of the Son of Heaven.

This behavior made Zhang Ji, who originally united with the imperial court, very dissatisfied, and looking at the ugly faces of Dong Cheng and Yang Ding and others, Zhang Ji simply broke away from the team and led the army to join Li Dao and Guo Yan, who were galloping eastward.

After Guo Yan was defeated, he went to seek refuge in Li Dao, Li Dao probably absorbed the previous lessons and chose not to blame the past, the two were still fighting for life and death, and in a blink of an eye, they were in love with each other.

Zhang Ji came to discuss this matter with them, and the three of them hit it off, so they immediately led the army forward.

At the beginning of April, the allied forces of the three caught up with Liu Xie's convoy escorted by Yang Ding, Dong Cheng and others in Dongjian, and the two sides fought for a while, and the "Wang Division" was defeated and lost, and Yang Ding was captured and beheaded.

Dong Cheng took a small army and a group of ministers to escort Liu Xie north across the Yellow River to escape and fled into Hedong County, only to be chased by the combined forces of Li, Guo and Zhang in Hedong County, and Liu Xie fell into the hands of the Liangzhou army such as Li Dao, Guo Yan and Zhang Ji again.

In this battle, Wang Shi lost really badly.

Yang Ding died, and five people, including Sun Rui, the guard captain, Da Changqiu Miaoci, the infantry captain Wei Wei, the servant Zhu Zhan, and the shooting captain Fu Jun, and many accompanying officials died, and they couldn't even call out their names when they saw the corpses, and the chamberlains and palace maids suffered heavy casualties.

Of course, the heaviest loss was that Liu Xie was once again captured by the armies of Li, Guo and Zhang.

In fact, before this, Dong Cheng, Yang Ding and others had sent people to cross the Yellow River north, wanting to go to Hedong County and Hanoi County to find reinforcements willing to escort them.

Originally, this was possible.

But the situation has changed.

The troops of the Baibo Army and the Southern Xiongnu, who were originally operating in Hedong County, were driven by Jia Xu to attack Guo Peng, and then were completely wiped out by Guo Peng.

They couldn't find a helper in Hedong County, so they ran to Hanoi and tried to seek Guo Peng's help, but they were attacked by bandits on the way, and they all died north of the Yellow River.

Guo's arm was already relatively thick among the praying mantises, so he pushed it hard, which somewhat made the heavy cart slightly deviate from its original course by less than a centimeter.

It's a difference of less than a centimeter.

Unable to find reinforcements or anyone who could assist them, Liu Xie's group collapsed under the attack of the fierce Liangzhou Legion.

Yang Ding died, Dong Cheng barely escaped with the protection of his own soldiers, and he could not gain a foothold in Guanzhong, so he could only flee south to Jingzhou, and never saw a trace.

Thirteen-year-old Liu Xie was once again in the hands of the Liangzhou Army, and this time, there was no reliable force by his side.
