Chapter 6 Yan Xiang Surrenders

"Then thank you General Ji Ling, and I hope that General Ji Ling will give you more guidance, eliminate bandits, and serve my Zhongguo!"

Yuan Yao saw that Ji Ling agreed, and his heart was even more happy.

There are not many talents under Yuan Shu who can be of great use, almost all of them are some third-rate generals, even if their personal strength is not good, they have no ability to command the army.

There is only Ji Ling, who can barely be regarded as a first- or second-rate general.

After all, this Ji Ling is also a talent who can fight Guan Yu for dozens of rounds and has not been killed.

It stands to reason that Yuan Shu should reuse such a talent.

But Yuan Shu doesn't have much ability to recognize people, Ji Ling was born in a poor family, although his personal strength is good, but there is no support from the family behind him, and under Yuan Shu, he has never been the core of the small group of people.

In addition, two years ago, Yuan Shu ordered Ji Ling to lead tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to crusade against Liu Bei, who was stationed in Xuzhou.

It's a pity that Lu Bu got in the way, and used the strategy of shooting halberds at Yuanmen to resolve this big battle, Ji Ling was also shocked by Lu Bu's terrifying strength, and he didn't dare to act rashly for a while, so he could only return in vain.

Yuan Shu finally reused Ji Ling once, but Ji Ling didn't seize the opportunity, which made Ji Ling have no chance to get ahead in the past two years under Yuan Shu's hands.

It can be seen that its status in the Yuan Shu camp is low.

Fortunately, with Yuan Yao, the master, he has a discerning eye.

Ji Ling glanced up at Yuan Yao and cast a grateful look at Yuan Yao.

Although Ji Ling didn't understand why Yuan Yao chose to go to Lujiang with the army, this could be regarded as a credit, as long as he completed this matter, Ji Ling would receive some rewards, and maybe he would be able to leave a better impression in front of Yuan Shu.

"Childe, don't worry, the last general will definitely live up to your expectations and help you complete the important task of suppressing bandits!"

Ji Ling gave Yuan Yao a military salute and retreated to the side.

Seeing this, Yuan Yao just smiled and did not continue to speak.

And in this way, this short court meeting has come to an end.

After coming out of the main hall of the court.

Yuan Yao was refreshed and in a good mood at the moment.

After coming to this world, his first step was completed.

As long as he can temporarily escape from Yuan Shu's control.

Give him plenty of time to develop his power.

Although Yuan Shu said that the emperor only had two years until his death, two years was enough time for Yuan Yao to develop a territory on his own.

With a piece of his own territory, he can recruit soldiers and horses, train soldiers, and when the time comes, even if he can't fight against Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others to protect himself, it will be no problem at all.

Coming out of the court, Yan Xiang quickly came up.

There was even a slight surprise.

Yan Xiang had already heard about what had just happened in the court, and after learning that Yuan Yao had taken the initiative to relinquish the position of the crown prince, he was also surprised, which was completely unexpected.

At the beginning, he still felt a little sorry for Yuan Yao's operation.

But after thinking about it carefully, a smile appeared on his face, and he even praised Yuan Yao's behavior again and again.

"Childe, Childe is really a good means!"

"Turning the passive into the active, skillfully solving the crisis in front of you, it's really amazing, how did you not find out that the son had such a mind, it's really blind!"

Yan Xiang came to Yuan Yao's side and expressed his sincere admiration for Yuan Yao's behavior today.

Although Yan Xiang also regretted Yuan Yao's position as the crown prince, after realizing Yuan Shu's behavior, this position of prince was not a good thing, but a hot potato.

Yuan Yao gave up the position of crown prince, not only to temporarily maintain a good relationship with Zhang Xun and others, to give himself some buffer time, but also to break away from Yuan Shu's control, and lead the soldiers and horses to leave Shouchun and go to Lujiang to develop his own power.

It can be said that it is a lot of success, Yan Xiang was still worried about Yuan Yao at first, but he didn't expect Yuan Yao to have already thought of countermeasures.

Recalling that when he asked Yuan Yao today, Yuan Yao's confident performance, Yan Xiang realized how smart the young master he chose.

Yuan Yao looked at Yan Xiang and praised him, but he was not proud, just replied humbly.

"Old Yan, you think too highly of me, I just don't want to argue with them, since they want me to be the crown prince, then you might as well take the initiative to give them the throne, abdicate and make way for the virtuous, you can not only win a good reputation, but also be able to reap some substantial benefits, why not."

"Well, Childe can think like this, which proves that Childe really doesn't attach much importance to the position of this prince."

"Lao Yu also admires Gongzi, from today on, Lao Yu wants to follow Gongzi, under the child's account, and wait for Gongzi to send him!"

With the initial communication, Yan Xiang now attaches more and more importance to Yuan Yao, and wants to express his attitude to Yuan Yao first.

However, in the face of Yan Xiang's request, Yuan Yao did not immediately accept it.

"Elder Yan, I am really flattered to have your help, but I still hope that Elder Yan can stay in Shouchun for the time being."

Yan Xiang was stunned for a moment, revealing a look of doubt.

Yuan Yao hurriedly explained to Yan Xiang.

"First, I am about to leave Shouchun and go to Lujiang, the road is far away, and I have to exterminate the mountain bandits, there may be danger, Yan is already old, if I am rushing, I am afraid it will not be easy."

"Second, I don't have any cronies in Shouchun, leaving Yan Lao, if something happens in Shouchun, I can take care of it, so that you and I can exchange news and make some preparations and precautions faster."

"Besides, now that I am no longer the prince, if Yan Lao and I get too close, it will definitely cause criticism on the surface, and when I have my own territory and strength, it will not be too late for Yan Lao to come to me again."

Yuan Yao wanted to keep Yan Xiang, purely to ask him to help, staring at Yuan Shu and Shouchun.

When Yan Xiang heard Yuan Yao's words, he also nodded, understanding that Yuan Yao was thinking about him, and it was indeed not a good time to follow Yuan Yao now.

He didn't excuse himself and arched his hand.

"Childe, everything is up to you."

"Childe, don't worry, if there is anything in Shouchun, the old man will pass on the news."

With Yan Xiang's assurance, Yuan Yao showed a smile and hurriedly thanked him.

"Then Yuan Yao will thank Yan Lao first, and when I settle down in Lujiang, I will send someone to pick up Yan Lao!"

After that, Yuan Yao said goodbye to Yan Xiang first, planning to go back to his prince's mansion to pack his things.

Now that he is no longer the prince, it is time to move out of the prince's mansion, and at the same time prepare to leave, leave Shouchun, and go to Lujiang.

And today's parliament of the imperial court, after Yuan Yao resigned as the crown prince, the happiest person was Yuan Yao's third brother Yuan Jing.
