Chapter 550: Yuan Shao's Conspiracy (3/15)

Bohai Zhisuo, Nanpi. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yuan Shao left the conference hall and strode back to his residence along the way, Yuan Shao's clothes were neat and clean, his expression was solemn, his eyes did not squint, and he was not angry. Everywhere he passed, the guards of the Taishou Mansion along the way, all sent him admiration and admiration, in the minds of many people, Yuan Shao, who was born in a famous family and worked hard, is a great hero worthy of following wholeheartedly.

Yuan Shao pressed his sword and did not speak.

Although the Bohai Navy lacked money and food, everyone was not in chaos, because Yuan Shao was always so firm and confident. Everyone firmly believes that under the leadership of Yuan Shao, the Bohai Taishou Mansion will overcome all difficulties and have a bright future.

Yuan Shao is not chaotic, and others are at ease.

This is Yuan Shao's temperament, and others can't learn it if they want to. This temperament is not only because Yuan Shao is from the Yuan family in Runan, but also from his active performance in the past and his unique personal charm.

The sound of steady and powerful footsteps disappeared from far to near, and from near to far, before entering the dwelling.

No one knows what Yuan Shao, who left the sight of his subordinates, would look like.

Thankfully they don't know.

If any of them could see it, they might be disappointed and surprised.

Yuan Benchu returned to his residence, the high-spirited momentum of Mount Tai collapsing in front of him without changing color was gone, he seemed to have lost his strength, leaning on a small few, looking tired and anxious.

Two maids cautiously approached, took off his robe for him, changed into light Zen clothes, and the other maid served tea, then lowered her head, put her hands on her knees, and retreated in broken steps. During the whole process, they tried their best to avoid making unnecessary noises, and they didn't dare to make a breath of air.

Everyone in the house knows that Taishou-sama has not been in a good mood lately.

Actually, it's not not very good, it's very bad.

Yuan Shao has always behaved calmly and dignified outside, it seems that everything is under his control, he has nothing to make him retreat, and the people in the mansion know best that it is just an illusion deliberately created by him. The children of the Yuan family and the head of Guan ASEAN seem to have unlimited scenery, and the pressure on their shoulders is also very imaginable.

Yuan Shao has been having a good time recently.

Han Fu's jealousy of Yuan Shao's guest army became more and more obvious, and he sent someone over a few days ago, saying that the Montenegrin army was in turmoil, and the Jizhou treasury was looted by the Montenegrin army, suffering heavy losses, and had to further reduce supplies.

Yuan Shao understood what Han Fu meant, and it was nothing more than forcing him to disband part of the army.

It's okay if it is not disbanded, anyway, there are so many things that the Jizhou Mansion can give to the Bohai Taishou Mansion, and it is likely that it will continue to decrease in the future, whether to retain the existing army size, Yuan Shao himself will do it.

Now that the king's order has not reached the eastern part of the country, all the princes from all walks of life are ready to fight hard, at this juncture, how could Yuan Shao follow Han Fu's wishes and take the initiative to reduce the troops that were finally recruited? The identity of Yuan's son and Guan ASEAN lord helped him raise some military salaries, but the resources were not too much, and it was not a long-term plan to support it all the time.

Yuan Shao was sent to the Bohai Sea and received help from the Jizhou government, but he looked down on Han Fu who allowed him.

Han Fu is cowardly by nature, lacks assertiveness, and his background is far from Yuan Shao, and Han Fu was a former official of the Yuan family in the past, Yuan Shao never thought that Han Fu was qualified to be an equal to him. Even if Han Fu is a pastor in Jizhou, he lives on Han Fu's territory, and this psychological advantage has never wavered.

However, Han Fu, who seemed mediocre and incompetent to him, dared to keep pushing him.

Yuan Shao thought that he had suffered great humiliation, and he was eager to brazenly raise troops to overthrow Han Fu and replace him, realizing the ambition of annexing Jizhou, which had been germinated a long time ago. However, Jizhou is the world's most important asset, and it can mobilize millions of people with armor with all its might, and the grain and grass are enough to last for ten years, but the Bohai Navy is hungry and tired, and if it really wants to fight, Yuan Shao is not sure at all.

Although Han Fu is oppressing his living space, in the final analysis, he doesn't want to raise a tiger on his territory, and wants to force the tiger to leave on his own in this way, so he doesn't have to put Yuan Shao to death. Continue to be false and wronged, life is a little embarrassing, but it is not impossible to live, but once the war starts, of course, everyone will be happy if they win, in case of losing the war, Yuan Shao will lose his place and even his life.

There is a huge disparity in strength, and it is difficult to have a chance of winning.

Yuan Shao had no choice but to endure.

Continuing to deal with Han Fu, there are also considerations related to the overall situation, and Yuan Shao needs Han Fu's support.

The Son of Heaven was held hostage to Chang'an, and the authority of the court was in the hands of Dong Zhuo, and it was impossible for the Kwantung princes to respect Dong Zhuo's orders and do their own thing. There is no owner in Kwantung, and Yuan Shao's identity as the leader of the alliance is also due to the selfishness of the princes, as well as his own lack of strong strength, in fact, it is not so effective, after a long time, without Dong Zhuo sending troops to the east, Kwantung is likely to be in chaos first.

Without the Son of Heaven, it is difficult to last without righteousness.

Yuan Shao believes that only by setting up another Son of Heaven can he compete with Chang'an in righteousness!

His idea was supported by most of the princes, including Han Fu.

The Han family has been inherited for hundreds of years, and there are many clansmen and bloodlines, and Yuan Shao chose Liu Yu, the pastor of Youzhou. Liu Yu is an important minister of the clan, with outstanding political achievements and a far-reaching reputation, one of the three major state pastors launched by the imperial court after changing the history of assassination to the state pastor, both strength and fame, Yuan Shao believes that Liu Yu is the most suitable candidate for the Son of Heaven.

The reason why Liu Yu was chosen, in addition to strength and fame, there are some reasons that are not humane.

First, Liu Yu was lenient and benevolent, and treated the local nomads with a gentle policy in Youzhou, which was diametrically opposed to Gongsun Zhan, a white-horse general who advocated toughness. Liu Yu is an outstanding politician, but he is not good at martial arts, people like him are praised as the Son of Heaven, and the Chang'an court competes, after all, they have to rely on these powerful princes of Kwantung, everyone thinks that Liu Yu is the Son of Heaven, at least their own interests will not suffer.

Yuan Shao also had such thoughts.

He advocated that Liu Yu be regarded as the Son of Heaven, and he was also the master of ASEAN, and after the matter was completed, he would inevitably be relied on by Liu Yu. With the support of the Son of Heaven, Yuan Shao can easily get rid of the current predicament, even if he is not in Jizhou, wouldn't it be beautiful to use the excuse to deal with Dong Zhuo's forces in Youzhou to absorb Liu Yu?

Han Fu vigorously supported Liu Yu, and he thought that he could see this clearly.

As long as Yuan Shao can leave Jizhou, Han Fu is willing to raise his limbs in favor.

Second, Liu Yu was in Guandong, to be precise, in Hebei, and regarded him as the Son of Heaven, and those princes in Henan could not become close ministers of the Son of Heaven unless they were willing to give up their territory. Several princes in Hebei are different, as the so-called near the water is the first to get the moon, Han Fu and Yuan Shao are the closest to Youzhou, Gongsun Zan himself is in Youzhou, and the three princes have great hopes.

In view of the fact that Han Fu is already the pastor of Jizhou, guarding Jizhou is enough for him to be satisfied, and the subjective desire to get close to the Son of Heaven may not be strong, and Gongsun Zan is not on good terms with Liu Yu due to different political views, Yuan Shao is likely to monopolize power.

In other words, if Liu Yu is the Son of Heaven, Yuan Shao has the best hope of controlling the government and becoming Dong Zhuo of Kwantung!

Yuan Shao's abacus clanged, but things didn't go well.

The other princes are not stupid, everyone has their own ghosts, Yuan Shao wants to soar into the sky with the opportunity to establish Liu Yu, and some people don't want to fulfill him, so they clearly oppose it.

Yuan Shao never expected that the biggest opponent would be his half-brother.
