Chapter 217, Yuan Shu's ambition
Sun Jian expanded his territory, his prestige was like the sky, on the other hand, Yuan Shu, he was sluggish, became extremely decadent, and fled to Shouchun, although there was no external trouble for the time being, but he lost the strongest killing weapon of the Sun family, Yuan Shu could not stretch and move in the troubled times, and wanted to expand the territory, and the soldiers around him would not be used at all, seeing the Sun family grow stronger day by day, Yuan Shu became disheartened, became more arrogant and lascivious, and made the people who were good at Shouchun miserable, just like Nanyang before.
This is nothing, he actually moved the mind of becoming an emperor.
Yuan Shu's first step, first self-proclaimed Xuzhou Bo, according to the title at that time, divided into the prince Bozinan, self-proclaimed earl is something that has never been done among the princes in the late Han Dynasty, in doing so, Yuan Shu is equivalent to announcing that he wants to establish an independent kingdom.
Next, Yuan Shu became more and more bold, he began to divide his subordinates, with Zhang Xun as the general, and dared to appoint his subordinates as the general, it can only be said that Yuan Shu regarded himself as the emperor.
If you want to be the emperor, you must be recognized by the upper class, Yuan Shu thought of his old friend, Chen Si.
He immediately wrote a letter to Chen Si, hoping to get Chen Si's support.
In the past, Qin lost his power, and the heroes of the world fought for it, and the wise and brave died and received it. In this world, things are chaotic, and the world is on the verge of collapse, and sincerity is the time when heroes are promising. With the old friends under the feet, how can I be willing to leave and right, if I can achieve great things, my son is really my confidant.
Receiving Yuan Shu's letter, the more Chen Si looked at it, the more surprised he became.
There are two contents of the letter, first, Yuan Shu's ambition is obvious, and he wants a yellow robe; Second, Yuan Shu held his son hostage.
Yuan Shu used improper means to get Chen Ying in Xiapi to his side, nominally treating Chen Si as his own, but actually using Chen Ying to threaten Chen Si to comply.
Let Chen Si fully support Yuan Shu to become emperor.
Chen Si was angry and angry, picked up the pen and replied to Yuan Shu with a letter:
In the last days of the Qin Dynasty, they were violent and wanton, abusing the world, and the poison was born to the people, and they were unbearable, so they collapsed. Although it is a season today, there is no violent rebellion of Qin. General Cao's martial arts should be due, revive the punishment, will put out the rebellion, clear the sea, and work together to support the Han family, and the conspiracy is wrong, and it is painful to test the disaster? If you can get lost and know how to return, you can still avoid it, I prepare the old knowledge, so Chen Zhiqing, as for the trouble of flesh and blood, the world is the most important, what a pity, I can't die from my fate, and I hope that the master will think twice, don't make mistakes!
Chen Si's reply was strongly worded, and he did not show Yuan Shu any mercy at all, Yuan Shu read the letter, his face was cloudy, and he was furious, and immediately tore the letter to smash, and really wanted to slaughter Chen Ying with a knife, but he was silent for a while, and still did not dare to act recklessly, but he did not stop the pace of being the emperor.
Even Zhang Miao, who was in danger, wrote a letter to dissuade Yuan Shu, but Yuan Shu ignored it and threw the letter aside.
…………
Yuan Shu's actions were in an uproar, and after Cao collected the information, he sent it to the hands of Guo Jia, the military advisor, who assisted Cao Cao, who was about the same status as Jia Xu, acting as a military advisor during the war, giving advice, and in addition, there was a more mysterious identity - controlling Cao's spy agency - Jin Cao Cao.
Although the weather is still very hot, you can sweat with only a thin shirt, but Guo Jia is wearing a thick robe, he has been cold and sick since he was a child, and his body is always wrapped thickly.
Standing behind him respectfully, hunched and motionless, like a hidden poisonous snake, it might suddenly show its fangs and pounce on its prey at any moment.
"Heaven is evil, it is forgivable, self-inflicted, you can't live, after defeating Lu Bu, the lord should free up his hands to deal with Yuan Shu."
"Don't we need to stand up and say something now?" Man Pet leaned forward and said slowly, his speech was very slow, as if every word had been chewed in his mind for a long time, very rhythmic and patient, accompanied by a slightly hoarse voice, which sounded very uncomfortable.
In front of Guo Jia, Man Chong is very respectful, but except for Guo Jia and Cao Cao, when it comes to others, Man Chong always has an attitude that is close to interrogating prisoners.
Now Xudu is being fully renovated, preparing to move the Son of Heaven to Xudu before winter, and Full Favor will become the most feared Xudu Order.
Guo Jia shook his head, "Yuan Shu wants to do something, just let him do it, there is no evil, where is the justice?" He dared to usurp and rebel, which just gave the lord the opportunity to set aside the chaos and help the Han family. ”
Man Zhong was silent for a while, and after a while, he nodded and understood what Guo Jia meant.
If there are no bad guys, the police face unemployment!
The more fierce Yuan Shu is, the more he can correct Cao Cao's name and let the world know who is the Optimus Jade Pillar of the Han Dynasty and the golden beam of the sea!
Full Favor said again: "I don't know what Gong Cao did with Yang Biao and others?" These people haven't been at ease lately. ”
Guo Jia smiled slightly, and drew a circle casually, "The Lord Justice is busy with Lu Bu and Zhang Miao, but he doesn't have the heart to pay attention to them, these people have just come to Yanzhou, it is inevitable that they are a little uncomfortable, let them make trouble, remember, what they want, give them what they want, food, clothing, use, don't be harsh, as for the rest, don't ask for extravagance, now is wartime, we must increase manpower to ensure their safety." ”
After a pause, Guo Jia suddenly raised his voice, "Remember, no one is allowed to leave this circle." ”
"Understood."
Guo Jia's meaning is to send people to protect these Han ministers, in fact, comprehensive monitoring, no one is allowed to make trouble or leave without authorization, this circle is not only a protective umbrella, but also a separation wall, all the old Han ministers must be like sheep in the sheepfold, being encircled, seemingly free, but in fact, all the time under the control of Jin Cao.
Dong Cheng, Yang Biao, Gongsun Rui...... These ministers, who usually hold military power, in addition to their titles, cannot mobilize a single soldier around them.
The guards around Liu Xie were all replaced by the Cao family's generals.
As Jia Xu said all day long, a loyal minister like Zhao Yun is not suitable to stay by Liu Xie's side, and after a long time, Liu Xie controlled Zhao Yun; Only a strong minister like Cao Cao, who can act arbitrarily, can stay by Liu Xie's side, and after a long time, Cao Cao can control Liu Xie.
If you are controlled by others, you will be self-tied, and conversely, if you control others, you will be able to do whatever you want.
Xu took advantage of the war to quietly infiltrate Dongjun, scattering his subordinates in several inns, all of whom changed their clothes and pretended to be ordinary peddlers and pawns.
After more than ten days, Jia Xu's order reached Dongjun, and the first person to assassinate was Gongsun Rui!
Xu He knew that Gongsun Rui was a loyal minister, and this kind of person should not be killed, but since it was Jia Xu's order, he could only obey it.
