Chapter 166: Conspiracy

At the same time that Tai Shici went out of the city overnight, Wang Yun's Situ Mansion ushered in an uninvited guest.

In the study of Situ Mansion, there are two cups of fragrant tea on the table, and the heat in the teacups is rising and wafting into the air, bringing a fragrance to the study. However, Wang Yun's conversation with the uninvited guest in front of him did not include the slightest smell of fragrance.

"Is it Yuan Shao's work?" Wang Yun didn't even raise his eyelids, sat in the Taishi chair with a golden knife, and asked nonchalantly.

The middle-aged scribe sitting opposite Wang Yun smiled indifferently, and Mao Sui recommended himself: "A certain is engaged in the trial under the command of Yuan Cheqi." ”

Wang Yun picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and asked in an indifferent tone: "It turned out to be a trial, I don't know what you are doing when you visit late at night?" ”

The judge slowly took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Wang Yun, and said, "My lord Yuan Che has a letter here, and Lord Situ will know it at a glance. ”

Wang Yun slowly opened Yuan Shao's handwritten letter, and at first only glanced at it twice, but as the content of the letter deepened, Wang Yun's eyes were firmly attracted, and he looked at it seriously with a look of surprise on his face. Sitting on the side, Wang Yun was moved by the content of the letter, picked up the teacup with a smile, and tasted the fragrant tea comfortably. Obviously, the content of the letter has long been known.

In the letter, Yuan Shao first greatly complimented Wang Yun with some sensual words, and then pointed out Wang Yun's current embarrassing situation, Wang Yun was in a high position but was robbed of the limelight by Ao Lie, Cao Cao and others, and Wang Yun was in this battle to quell the chaos, and he was unable to achieve the size of the merit, and it was inevitable that he would be snubbed by the Son of Heaven. Yuan Shao's words deeply touched Wang Yun's heart, isn't it, since Ao Lie entered Beijing and Dong Zhuo was killed, Liu Xie has obeyed Ao Lie's words. is not at all as before, he is so polite to Wang Yun, all of this is caused by Ao Lie, coupled with the matter of Diao Chan, Wang Yun can be said to have lost his righteous daughter and broken his soldiers, and threw it into his face by the way, which made Wang Yun hate Ao Lie as soon as he thought of it. Unconsciously, Wang Yun has been brought into Yuan Shao's thinking.

Next. Yuan Shao changed his words in the letter, saying that Ao Lie deliberately provoked the contradictions of the princes from all walks of life, and forcibly split the alliance into two parts, which can be said to be treacherous to the extreme, and used conspiracy and trickery to attack Luoyang, blinding the Son of Heaven, making the Son of Heaven mistakenly think that only Ao Lie, Cao Cao and others are loyal ministers, and using the loyalty of the princes of all walks of life to play with the princes of all walks of life. In a word. Yuan Shao put almost all the charges he could think of on Ao Lie's head, so as to express his dissatisfaction with Ao Lie, as for what he really wanted, it was not within the scope of Yuan Shao's consideration.

After talking about his dissatisfaction with Ao Lie. Yuan Shao expressed his opinion in the letter, he believed that Ao Lie's soldiers were strong and strong, and he would definitely establish himself as king after a long time, which was a major hidden danger to the imperial court. Maybe it's the next Dong Zhuo, and he asked Wang Yun for his opinion on this, and asked Wang Yun how to restrain Ao Lie. The most obsessive back of the Epistle. Yuan Shao pursued Wang Yun again and hoped that Wang Yun would make a decision as soon as possible.

After reading Yuan Shao's handwritten letter, Wang Yun let out a long breath and raised his eyes to look at the trial, the indifference in his eyes had disappeared, replaced by endless gloom. From Wang Yun's eyes, the judge saw his hatred for Ao Lie.

Sure enough, after Wang Yun was silent for a moment, he spoke: "Ao Lie has made some merits by luck, and there is no one in his eyes, which is really hateful. I would like to ask for a trial to return to Yuan Cheqi, Wang Yun is willing to be above the court as the backing support of Yuan Cheqi, but I don't know, after the matter is completed, what benefits Wang Yun can get? ”

Old fox! The judge secretly scolded Wang Yun in his heart, obviously wanting to drive Ao Lie out of the court, but he pretended to help Yuan Shao, and asked for any benefits! However, this point has been calculated before the trial comes, and Yuan Shao also granted the trial and match the power to be arbitrary, so that the trial can act at the opportunity. The judge said slowly: "After the matter is completed, Yuan Che will ride outside, and Wang Situ will be in charge of the government together, how about it?" ”

Wang Yun's eyes flashed, and he slapped the table hard, and said with a sly smile on his face: "Okay! That's it. In Wang Yun's opinion, once Ao Lie's problem is solved, no one else is a threat in his eyes, and when Wang Yun is in a high position as the third duke, controlling the government and government, he casually deposes Yuan Shao in the name of the Son of Heaven, what can Yuan Shao do?

The judge also laughed, and arched his hand towards Wang Yun and said, "I wish Wang Situ a happy cooperation with my lord." "In today's era, there are soldiers and horses to have the right to speak, and when Ao Lie is solved, the princes who have the most military horses in the world are Yuan Shao, and when Yuan Shao waives his army westward, Wang Yun's sizeless military power is categorically unable to resist Yuan Shao, at that time, Yuan Shao can coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes and command the world.

The two of them smiled with their own ghosts, each picked up the teacup in front of them, and tasted the tea comfortably.

In the camp in Guanzhong, Zhang Ji was also holding a letter in his hand, looking at it seriously, and Tai Shici was standing on one side with his hands down. Ao Lie wrote this letter to Zhang Ji as a nephew, and Tai Shici naturally couldn't make friends with Zhang Ji as an equal, so he could only stand aside and wait.

After a long time, Zhang Ji put away the letter and sighed softly: "Ao Junhou is really well-intentioned. Anyway, this matter, so-and-so agreed. Early tomorrow morning, the troops will return to Luoyang Miansheng. It can be regarded as doing a lot for a certain soldier. "Most of the soldiers under Zhang Ji's command are from Xiliang, because of Dong Zhuo's catastrophe, the Xiliang army has become synonymous with rebellion. But as the so-called people are divided into groups, Zhang Ji has an upright temperament, and most of the people who can be accepted by him are also upright people, which is very different from the Xiliang Army directly under Dong Zhuo, in order to have a good future for these Xiliang men under his command in the future, Zhang Ji has no reason to refuse Ao Lie.

This night is destined to be an eventful night. In Sun Jian's military camp, Sun Jian personally stabbed the sword into Li Su's heart, and turned it twice hard, until it was confirmed that Li Su was dead and could no longer die, Sun Jian withdrew the long sword. Walking to the table of the Chinese army's big tent, Sun Jian took out a jet-black wooden box from under the table, and just opened the wooden box a crack, and five colors of light emanated from the wooden box.

Sun Jian's movements immediately attracted the attention of the others in the tent. At this moment, there are only a few henchmen such as Sun Ce, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, and Huang Gai who can stand in Sun Jian's big tent. Even Sun Shangxiang was not among them.

Sun Ce watched Sun Jian take out the objects in the wooden box with five colors of light with both hands, and couldn't help but ask, "Father, is this really the jade seal of the country?" Isn't it rumored that this treasure was lost when the Ten Servants were in rebellion? ”

Cheng Pu took two steps forward and said in a low voice: "Lord, can you show the jade seal?" Sun Jian didn't hesitate, and stretched out his hand to hand the heirloom jade seal to Cheng Pu. Cheng Pu has been by Sun Jian's side for almost 20 years, and he is loyal and unswerving, and he is Sun Jian's most trusted arm.

Carefully taking the jade seal, Cheng Pu looked at it carefully for a while, and then with a happy face, he said to Sun Jian and a few people in the tent: "This thing is indeed a jade seal of the country. The jade seal of the country is four inches in circumference, engraved with five dragons and bonds, and there are eight-character seal inscriptions on one side of the seal, and the book is 'ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang'. According to legend, in the past, Bian He was under Jing Mountain, saw the phoenix perched on the stone, and carried this stone back to the king of Chu Wen, and the king of Chu Wen ordered someone to cut open this stone and get a piece of beautiful jade. Later, Qin Shi Huang ordered a good craftsman to carve this jade, and ordered Li Si to engrave the eight characters and seals. After the death of the first emperor, Ziying dedicated the jade seal to my Han Gaozu. Later, when Wang Mang usurped the government, the Empress Dowager Xiaoyuan used the jade seal to hit the rebels, causing the jade seal to fall to the ground and collapse a corner, and then inlaid it with pure gold. Today's lord has obtained this treasure, which is an auspicious omen, and the will of heaven will enthrone the lord. The lord should return to Jiangdong as soon as possible, and don't make good plans. ”

Sun Jian said with a smile: "The words of virtue are exactly what I want." After the army rested, he resigned to the Son of Heaven and returned to Jiangdong. ”

Sun Ce suddenly interjected and said: "Father, our army was able to attack Luoyang and my father was able to obtain this treasure, thanks to Master's strategy. According to the child, should I discuss this matter with the master? ”

Sun Jian pondered for a while, then looked down at the jade seal that Cheng Pu put back on the table, and said hesitantly: "Although Ao Junhou is a bright and upright person and treats people kindly, this matter is not trivial, let's not make any extraneous branches, let's return to Jiangdong as soon as possible." After returning to Jiangdong, his father wrote a letter in his own hand, informing Ao Junhou of the matter. ”

Seeing that Sun Jian was resolute, Sun Ce didn't dare to say anything, so he had to suppress the thoughts in his heart.

Outside Sun Jian's big tent, a sergeant held his breath, leaned his ear on the tent and secretly listened to the conversation of Sun Jian and others, and listened to the conversation of everyone in the tent word for word. Then he quietly left the big tent and ran in the direction of Yuan Shao's camp outside the city.

The next day, in the Deyang Palace, Liu Xiegao sat on the dragon chair, and the eunuch standing beside Liu Xie shouted in a sharp voice: "If there is something to play early, there is nothing to retreat fromβ€”β€”"

Wang Yun stepped out of the train and said loudly: "Qi Shengshang, Yuan Shao and other fourteen princes have been summoned by the saint outside Luoyang City. ”

Liu Xie snorted coldly when he heard this: "Do they still have the face to see me?" If it weren't for the emperor's brother's surprise attack on Luoyang, I am afraid that I would have been in the dark in the cellar of General Huangfu's house! After Liu Xie returned to power, he reused a group of civil and military officials who were deposed by Dong Zhuo, including Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun.

Seeing Liu Xie's spiritedness, Liu Yu came out of the class and said: "Initiate the saint, the saint should treat people with leniency, even the national thief Dong Zhuo can be buried thickly, not to mention Yuan Cheqi and others who came to King Qin?" And after Dong Zhuo's rebellion, the court is in ruins, and it is the time to employ people, and the saints must not chill the hearts of the princes. ”

Zhong Xuan, Du Ji and others also went out to persuade each other, and Liu Xie reluctantly agreed, and ordered Yuan Shao and other fourteen princes to take off their swords and armor, and walk to the palace in court clothes. (To be continued......)
