In fact, none of the princes were stupid, and the reason why Liu Bei reacted half a beat slower before was because he was thinking about something else.

Before, when the princes were begging for Dong, he was only Gongsun Zhan's subordinate, but now he has become a righteous prince, and Gongsun Chan has already turned into a cup of loess.

Yuan Shao, who didn't even look at himself at the beginning, has now become so hysterical, which makes Liu Bei feel a strange pleasure.

At that time, he was enjoying this pleasure, so he reacted a little later than the other princes.

But fortunately, his military advisor reminded him in time, so that he would not become the target of public criticism.

With the addition of Liu Bei and others, Yuan Shao also knew that he couldn't make too much trouble, although he had a big quarrel with Xu Chu just now, he heard everything that should be heard.

Besides, according to his understanding of Ju Yi, he knew how hateful his love would be.

Ju Yi's death this time actually has a lot to do with his usual behavior.

If it weren't for the nameless fire in his heart that had nowhere to vent, he wouldn't be angry at Xu Chu at all, originally thinking that Xu Chu would honestly let himself be taught a lesson.

But I didn't expect Xu Chu, who was stunned, to dare to contradict himself.

This can directly force Yuan Shao into a corner, if he doesn't make a gesture, he will not be able to continue to survive in the coalition army in the future.

Because of this, Yuan Shao, who regarded his face as bigger than the sky, ignored the risk of the coalition falling apart, and staged such a farce of separation.

Now that so many people have set up steps for him, Yuan Shao knows that he should go down, in case he really provokes those princes in a while, he can't think of ending this farce with dignity.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao was a little deflated by the persuasion of the princes, and then he was reluctantly pulled back to his seat by Liu Bei and others.

Originally, Liu Bei and the others thought that there was nothing wrong, but they didn't expect Yuan Shao, this guy, to give them an inch at the end.

He actually asked Cao Cao to take thirty military rods on behalf of Xu Chu, according to him, Xu Chu's crime of bumping into his boss is unforgivable, but for Cao Cao's sake, he is open!

Yuan Shao's performance made Liu Bei and the others frown at that time, they all knew how excessive Yuan Shao's request was!

Cao Cao is the leader this time, Yuan Shao peeled Cao Cao's face so much, in case Cao Cao turned his face on the spot for a while, their princes' alliance would really hang!

Liu Bei, Liu Biao, and Liu Dai immediately turned their heads and looked at Cao Cao on the other side, they were afraid that Cao Cao would turn his face because of Yuan Shao's words.

Even Yuan Shao's younger brother Yuan Shu looked down on his eldest brother in his heart, and he knew that his eldest brother was definitely doing it on purpose.

When he was crusading against Dong Zhuo before, his eldest brother was the leader of the alliance of the princes, and at that time, the princes of the Nineteenth Route jointly attacked.

How high-spirited the eldest brother was at that time, but how many years have passed, and now the eldest brother has not even mixed up with the leader of the Six-Way Alliance.

This made him, the eldest brother with an excellent face, grit his teeth with hatred for the alliance leader Cao Cao in his heart, and of course he would seize every opportunity to take revenge on Cao Cao.

At this time, no one expected that Cao Cao would accept Yuan Shao's punishment with a smile on his face, and then Cao Cao turned around and went out of the big tent.

Behind him, Liu Bei and the others followed closely, and soon they found that Cao Cao had come to the place of torture naked.

Xu Chu wanted to step forward with red eyes and replace his father-in-law, but the Xiahou brothers and Xu Huang beside him held him in place and didn't let him move.

Cao Cao ordered them when he first came out that they must take Xu Chu very well, and they must not let Xu Chu cause any trouble.

A quarter of an hour later, when the thick military staff hit Cao Cao's back, Xu Chu couldn't help but shed tears as a tough guy, but now he couldn't do anything.

He couldn't even scold Yuan Shao a few times, because Brother Xiahou and the others had already informed him in advance that if he did anything inappropriate, then his lord's thirty canes would be in vain!

However, although Xu Chu couldn't scold Yuan Shao angrily, he kept staring at Yuan Shao with eyes that could kill people, which made Yuan Shao feel like a man's back.

At this time, his face was not good, he just said this in passing, he thought that Cao Cao would say a few soft words to him, and when the time came, he would smooth out the matter.

But I didn't expect this Cao Apu to come out directly and be punished.

This made Yuan Shao dumb and unable to speak, and even at this moment, Yuan Shao felt that he had been isolated!

Time passed minute by minute, and soon Cao Cao's torture was completed, and the Xiahou brothers, Xu Chu, and Xu Huang rushed forward the moment Cao Cao's torture ended.

They thought that their lord would be extremely weak by these thirty military staffs, but who knew that Cao Cao at this time was still talking and laughing except for some unsteady standing.

And under his command, even if the Xiahou brothers and others were reluctant, they still helped him to come to Yuan Shao.

Not only did Liu Bei and others not expect this, but even Yuan Shao, one of the parties involved, stood stunned.

After Cao Cao came to Yuan Shao, he pushed away the Xiahou brothers and others who were holding him, and then he clasped his fists with both hands and bowed slightly at Yuan Shao and said at the same time:

"Brother Ben Chu, it was indeed that His Majesty Meng De was not strict before, so he let his subordinates collide with Brother Ben Chu. Now that he's taken these thirty rods, it's time for Brother Benchu to get angry! “

"Meng De, I~I~ Hey, it was Yuan who was a little stubborn, so he let Brother Meng De suffer this great crime. Yuan is really ashamed, ashamed! “

"Brother Ben Chu doesn't have to be like this, you and I must be in the same boat this time, so that we can defeat Liu Yuan, the great enemy! If with thirty rods can free up the old suspicions between you and my brothers, then this time will not be wronged! “

"Brother Meng De is open-minded, Yuan is not as good as him! Please rest assured Brother Meng De, Yuan will definitely advance and retreat with you, and this time he vows to completely defeat Liu Yuan! “

"Good~ Good! Since that's the case, then let's say goodbye first! These thirty rods really hurt! “

"Meng De, hurry up and rest, Yuan will visit you in the camp later!"

Cao Cao was carried back to his camp by Xiahoudun and others, Yuan Shao looked at the back of Cao Cao and the others who were drifting away, and his heart was full of infinite emotion.

It seems that he did underestimate Cao Cao before, but he didn't expect the current Cao Cao to become so scheming, and it seems that he must be careful when working with Cao Cao in the future!

The turmoil on the coalition side gradually subsided, and Liu Yuan was still busy.

When he received Ma Dai's report, Liu Yuan's shadow appeared in his mind at that time.

According to the time, this is the time when the man comes out of the mountain.

And in history, this person went to Liu Bei, he was the first top strategist under Liu Bei!

This person is Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi who is alias Shan Fu!
