Chapter 754: Clear Conscience

Knowing that Yuan Shao not only did not escape, but greeted him, Liu Xiu was a little surprised, but this surprise immediately turned into relief. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"He finally remembered that he was a scholar." Liu Xiu sighed: "Stripped of all the glory, now he only has his own dignity." ā€

Xun You was silent, he, like Liu Xiu, guessed Yuan Shao's sorrow. Grief is greater than heart death, Yuan Shao is dead, he doesn't want to run away like the last time in Yanzhou, he wants to die on the battlefield and die like a husband.

Jia Xu snorted softly, nothing, and looked at Yanshan in the distance lightly. He had a very different view of dignity from Xun You, but he was not interested in discussing these issues with Xun You, especially when Liu Xiu's views were the same as Xun You's.

So he looks at the scenery.

"Catch up and settle the war in Northern Xinjiang in a war." Liu Xiu gave the order to advance. The army continued to advance, but slowed down and maintained a formation ready to engage at any time.

As soon as Lu Bu saw this scene, he knew that the big war was coming, and he was excited, like a child seeing a long-awaited toy. He gently kicked the horse's belly, urging the horse to run faster. "Alas, I knew that I could fight Yuan Shao so early, I really shouldn't have robbed that merit at that time, and I also cut my horse. It's a big loss this time. ā€

Cheng Lian heard Lu Bu's lamentation, and couldn't help but burst out laughing. In order to snatch the head of the man from Zhang Liao, Lu Bu did not hesitate to use a knife to cut the big red horse to urge the horsepower, but the big red horse was injured and could not ride for two days, and Lu Bu did not grab the credit, under the coercion of Lu Xiaohuan, in order not to be kicked out of the house by the old lady. Gray returned the credit to Zhang Liao. This time, it can be said that he has lost face and folded his inside, and he has not reaped any benefits. Instead, he fell into a laughing stock, and Liu Xiu was not very happy.

Cutting the horse is a trivial matter, and the key is that Liu Xiu is unhappy. Lu Bu didn't dare to ask for war now, for fear that Liu Xiu's anger would not subside, and he would touch his head again. But seeing that he was about to fight Yuan Shao, and Zhao Yun was not there, Lu Bu thought that he was the first general under Liu Xiu, and if he didn't go to the battle, it didn't seem right, and maybe he would be considered cowardly. only dared to show off his might on a small scene, but when it came to the real battle, he only dared to shrink behind.

"This ......" Lu Bu turned his head, but saw Cheng Lian turn his head away, not matching his tone, knowing that Cheng Lian had understood his current mood, but he didn't have any good suggestions. I had to keep my mouth shut.

Just when Lu Bu was struggling with whether to go or not, Yuan Shao's battle flag appeared in the distance.

The two armies faced each other, and Liu Xiu and Yuan Shao, the old opponents who had been fighting for more than ten years, finally stood face to face on the battlefield. Liu Xiushen was calm and sat on the war horse. looked at Yuan Shao's military formation in the distance. Yuan Shao has more than 10,000 people, and the equipment is also good, with flags and banners, and the military appearance is neat. But I don't know why, Liu Xiu felt that Yuan Shao's military formation had a sense of gloom, not majestic, but tragic, just like Yuan Shao, the main general.

For the courage of the three armies, the ancients will not deceive me. Although Yuan Shao wanted to use the last battle to maintain his dignity and make his death less aggrieved, since he was seeking death rather than survival, he was already weaker in his fighting spirit, and he didn't seem to have much effect except for making himself look like a hard and smelly stone.

If you want to die, you have to drag more than 10,000 people to die? Liu Xiu suddenly became a little angry.

"Wen Yuan, you tell Yuan Shao before you go to the battle, I want to meet him."

"Whoa." Zhang Liao lightly urged the war horse, and as soon as the war horse took a step, Xun You stretched out his hand and grabbed Zhang Liao. "King, I'll go."

Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows and nodded silently. Xun You shook the reins, and the war horse walked forward with brisk steps.

While Liu Xiu was watching Yuan Shao's military formation, Yuan Shao was also looking at Liu Xiu's military formation. The sun at noon was already in the west, and the sunlight was a little dazzling, making Yuan Shao unable to open his eyes. The large array on the opposite side also seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light, especially Liu Xiu under the Great Guard, which was like a fire, making people unable to look at it directly. The Suzaku on the big silk also seemed to come to life, flying in the flames, making a clear chirp, which made people daunting and unable to fight.

Yuan Shao raised his head, looked at the three-legged black on his battle flag, and sighed secretly. I don't know if it's because the weaver's craftsmanship is not enough, or if his own momentum is not enough, this represents the sun, and the three-legged black that represents the monarch's position is lifeless, far less energetic than the flaming red bird. Just like him and Liu Xiu now.

Seeing Xun You riding his horse, Yuan Shao hesitated for a moment, gently kicked the horse's belly, and the war horse shook its body and walked forward.

"Lord ......" Xin Ping stretched out his hand, wanting to hold Yuan Shao's reins. Yuan Shao pushed him away and shook his head: "This is Xun Gongda, a scribe, and I am the same as Ruying, don't I even dare to see him?" ā€

Xin Ping listened and silently retreated. Yuan Shao held the reins of the horse with one hand, supported his thigh with the other, straightened his waist, and slowly came to the front of the formation. The two stopped when they were two steps apart, and Xun Yu arched his hand: "Brother Benchu." ā€

Yuan Shao returned the salute with a smile: "Gongda, don't come to harm?" ā€

"Thank you for your concern, everything is fine."

"I am ashamed that Mr. Ling Shu Ciming passed away and was not able to pay his respects in person."

"Brother Benchu is too worried." Xun You said with a smile: "The deceased is gone, and those who come can be chased." Brother Benchu, Uncle Ling is still alive, but there is not much time left, don't you want to be filial to your knees? ā€

Yuan Shao was silent for a moment: "I heard that the highway is filial piety by his old man's side, and he must be very satisfied." I have achieved nothing now, and I don't have the face to meet him, so I have to take the first step and ask him again on the Huangquan Road. ā€

Xun You sighed, knowing that Yuan Shao's mind had been decided, and there was no point in persuading him to surrender, so he had to stop talking. "His Royal Highness the King of Chu wants to say a few words to you, I wonder if Brother Ben is willing?"

The corners of Yuan Shao's mouth grinned slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at Liu Xiu in the distance: "I also happen to have a few words I want to ask him, if I can get his answer, I can't ask for it." ā€

Xun You nodded in greeting, and glanced at Yuan Shao again: "Precious." ā€

"Thank you." Yuan Shao returned the courtesy. Xun You turned the horse's head, returned to Liu Xiu, gave Liu Xiu a look, and shook his head. Liu Xiu replied and urged the horse forward.

Seeing Liu Xiu come out of the formation, Lu Bu, who had been entangled, sighed, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

Yuan Shao watched Liu Xiu stop when he walked in front of him, and bowed his hand: "Your Royal Highness's demeanor is really different, no wonder the world is in the heart." ā€

Liu Xiu smiled and didn't return the salute, but just nodded as a reply. He looked at Yuan Shao and sank his face. "The Original ......"

"If Your Highness is persuaded to surrender, then it will be exempted." Yuan Shao raised his hand and interrupted Liu Xiu's words, although the smile on his face was a little stiff, it did not lose his demeanor. "I am willing to talk to His Highness before the battle, but there are a few questions that linger in my mind and cannot be solved. If His Royal Highness can solve his doubts, Shao is grateful. ā€

Liu Xiu's eyebrows frowned: "If you have any questions, you can come to Luoyang to find me, I can know everything, and I can say everything." ā€

"I'm not Yuan Shu." Yuan Shao dusted off the armor on his body: "You can't wear this dress into Luoyang." He smiled: "Of course, you can't go in an ochre suit." Master Ziyun, Chaowen said, Xi can die. Now that RI has slanted to the west, won't Your Highness be willing to show me a little favor and let me go on my way with peace of mind? ā€

Liu Xiu looked at Yuan Shao, speechless for a while, and suddenly laughed softly. He shook his head: "Actually, you don't have to ask, my answer will definitely not satisfy you." Because...... We're not the same kind of people who can't think of going together. If you could understand what I'm saying, I wouldn't have the result I have today. ā€

Yuan Shao smiled silently, just looked at Liu Xiu quietly.

Liu Xiu laughed for a while, and when he saw Yuan Shao's expression, he knew that he was not giving up, so he had to wave his hand: "Since you want to ask, then ask." I will explain it to you as much as I can, and whether you can understand it or not depends on your creation. ā€

"Thank you, Your Highness." Yuan Shao arched his hand: "The first question I want to ask Your Highness is, when Your Highness was still an ordinary scholar from a poor family, my uncle Ciyang Gong intended to marry her sister to Your Highness, why didn't Your Highness allow it, could it be that your sister is not worthy of Your Highness?" ā€

Speaking of Yuan Hui, Liu Xiu was a little gloomy for a while. That woman was the smartest woman he had seen so far, but unfortunately, she was the one who had died the worst, and a gentleman like Yuan Shu was alive and well now. What an injustice this heaven has.

"No, Ling Mei is both talented and beautiful, and she is a rare good woman in the world." Liu Xiu sighed, "It's a pity that she was born in the Yuan family, otherwise, I would definitely be flattered." ā€

"I see, the sister is under the Nine Springs, so she must be at ease." Yuan Shao also sighed, and then said: "Your Highness refuses to marry because of the Yuan family, could it be that he has long seen that my Yuan family has different intentions?" If so, does Your Highness really have the power of a prophet? At that time, my Yuan family didn't have any unsubordinate deeds. ā€

Liu Xiu raised his eyebrows, and said in his heart that I am really an uncertain prophet, but this is too mysterious, and it is estimated that no one will believe it. He shook his head: "I can't talk about the unknown prophet, but I just take history as a mirror, the Yuan family is neither willing to be like the Yang family of the Hong family, nor like Yin Ma Liang Dou, then of course there is only one way to go." Is there any unsubdued deeds, and what is the point? ā€

Yuan Shao pondered for a long time and nodded: "Not bad, not bad." Since my Yuan family is unwilling to give up their existing interests, and they can't be like the Yang family, there is only one way to go dark. He suddenly laughed: "However, I think that my Yuan family is here because of His Royal Highness's eloquence and strategy, and His Royal Highness's destiny returns, my Yuan family is not your opponent, so I can only accept my fate." ā€

Liu Xiu smiled and did not answer. He knew that Yuan Shao was implicitly sarcastic. The Yuan family is rebellious, how can he not be rebellious? Compared with the Yuan family, he still has the brand of a vassal king on his body, and he should be more ashamed than the Yuan family. However, this is just Yuan Shao's idea, not his idea. He was not ashamed.

On the contrary, he felt that everything he did was what he should do. If he doesn't, he should be ashamed.

But can Yuan Shao understand this truth? Can he believe it?

"Heaven sees itself as the people, God listens to the people as it hears, if the human heart is the destiny of heaven, I am honored to say these words."
