Chapter Twenty-Seven: Becoming Emperor

Yan Xiang has said bitter words many times.

Yuan Shu was also a little tired of listening to it, holding your attitude of saying yours, I will do me.

However, Yan Xiang is also a stubborn person, as long as the day of becoming emperor is not reached, he does not want to watch Yuan Shu kill himself.

"The general knows that once you become emperor, Cao Cao will immediately issue an edict in the name of the Son of Heaven to crusade against thieves and gather the princes of the world to crusade against the general."

Yan Xiang's brows furrowed into Sichuan characters, and he asked softly, "How will the general deal with it then?" ”

"The princes of the world?"

Yuan Shu chuckled disdainfully, shook his head and said, "Where did the princes of the world come from, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are fighting to the death in the northern country; Liu Biao, it would be good to be able to hold on to the one-third of an acre of land in Jingzhou; Ma Teng Han Sui? Guanzhong has been occupied by Li Dao and Guo Yan for many years, have they lived? Yizhou Liu Zhang, Hanzhong Zhang Lu, they didn't even have a clear account of their own bad debts.

Where did the princes of the world come from? ”

When he was against King Dong Qin, Yuan Shu was not like this, although his vision was narrow, he listened to other people's opinions.

This jade seal, let him be stunned.

"General! Cao Cao in Xuchang, Lu Bu in Xuzhou, Sun Ce in Jiangdong, and even Liu Bei in Xiaopei, which way is a good class, how can the general ignore them! Yan Xiang's voice was hoarse, and the green tendons on his neck were reflected.

"Sir, I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry."

Yuan Shu even went to pour a cup of hot tea for Yan Xiang, and when he saw that he had no intention of drinking, he pulled him to sit down again, and said patiently: "Liu Bei is a disciple who weaves mats and sells shoes, and there are no more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, so I have no hindrance;

Lu Bu is a domestic slave with three surnames, and the mess in Xuzhou can't be cleaned up, if I don't trouble him, he should burn high incense;

As for Sun Ce, Huiji Wang Lang and Yan Baihu of Wu County are not so easy to deal with, and his little soldiers and horses may not be tenable.

Cao Cao..."

When talking about Cao Cao, Yuan Shu paused, squinted his eyes, and said with a bit of arrogance: "I will have a big battle with him, and it has nothing to do with the matter of being emperor." ”

After analyzing this meal, Yan Xiang was directly stupid.

It's not that he can't refute it, but Yan Xiang feels that this thing is hopeless.

When he finally relieved himself and was ready to persuade again, Yuan Shu directly pressed his hand and said: "I have decided, Mr. does not need to persuade again, the ninth day of the first month of this month is auspicious, it is advisable to travel, open the light, and pray for blessings..."

Finally, the corners of Yuan Shu's mouth rose, "It is appropriate to be called the emperor!" ”

After saying that, regardless of Yan Xiang not giving up, Yuan Shu stood up and left.

In Yuan Shu's view, of course, there is a certain risk in being called the emperor, but it is not useless, such as the Xuzhou Lu family, who has been trying to win over before, and people don't care about themselves.

Recently, it was rumored in Huainan that he had returned to his destiny, so he came to defect, not to be called the emperor, can people come?

But in Yan Xiang's eyes, Yuan Shu at this time belonged to a damned ghost who was hard to persuade with good words...

"God, the general's limit is approaching, and the old decay can do nothing."

......

Xuchang City, in Sikong Mansion.

There were snowflakes fluttering outside the house, and Liu Bei, who was finally able to recognize the Son of Heaven and correct the name of the emperor's uncle in the palace, sat opposite Cao Cao, the actual helmsman of the imperial court named Sikong.

Next to them was a bonfire with a pot of plum wine boiling on it.

"Xuande studied under Lumen, traveled all over the world, and made friends with a lot of heroes, today you and I are cooking wine here, not as good as talking about the heroes of the world, it is also a great joy in life."

From the beginning of the battle against King Dong Qin, Cao Cao actually admired Liu Bei.

This time he was able to come by edict, which was unexpected.

In addition, these days he has been crowned the emperor's uncle, but he is more and more humble, and he is a smart person.

"Lord Sikong has won the award, just below, with the naked eye, I am afraid that I can't recognize any heroes."

Liu Bei was extremely humble, and even lowered his head a little, "But Sikong opened his mouth, and tried to discuss it in the next place, if there is a gaffe, please forgive Sikong." ”

He drank a glass of hot wine and looked contemplative, paused, and said: "Yuan Shao of Hebei, the third prince of the fourth world, has enough soldiers and food, and can be called a hero." ”

"Fierce and timid, indecisive, and forgetful of righteousness, it is just the favor of the ancestors." Cao Cao's eyes were full of disdain.

"Jiangxia Bajun Liu Jingsheng?"

"The caretaker is acceptable, but the word hero is not worthy."

"Jiangdong leader Sun Bofu, a successful young man, can he be considered a hero?"

"Sun Ce just relied on the prestige of his father Sun Jian."

After hesitating for a moment, Liu Bei held the hot cup wall and said tentatively: "Lu Bu among the people, the red rabbit among the horses, Lu Bu's Fang Tian painting halberd makes the world frightened, is he a hero?" ”

"Lu Bu..."

When this name was mentioned, Cao Cao was obviously stunned for a moment, and his thoughts couldn't help but be melancholy.

According to the report from Xuzhou spies, there is indeed a master hidden behind Lu Bu.

Quyuan plow, keel waterwheel and Peicheng ambush should all be from this person's hand.

It's not Chen Gong, it's not Chen Deng, who will it be.

There are more people around Lu Bu, but they are all martial artists, such as Zang Ba, Sun Guan and the like, and I haven't heard of any Confucian sages.

This point is also what Cao Cao is most puzzled about.

"Sikong?" Seeing that Cao Cao was distracted, Liu Bei whispered.

"It's just a puppet, but..."

Cao Cao shook the wine glass in his hand, and his eyes flashed with fierceness, "I'll clean him up sooner or later." ”

originally thought that Cao Cao would scoff at Lu Bu, but Liu Bei was very surprised by the abnormality just now.

Is it because of Peicheng's defeat?

It should be Chen Gong who is behind the scenes.

Liu Bei didn't get entangled, and continued along with the question just now: "So, is Yuan Shu, who is thousands of miles away, a hero?" ”

Yuan Shu's territory is indeed thousands of miles long, and it can even be said to be the land of four states, but it is not complete.

Nanyang in Jingzhou, Lujiang and Jiujiang in Yangzhou, Geyang and Anfeng in Yuzhou and Guangling in Xuzhou are thousands of miles long, so Liu Bei's statement is still correct.

Cao Cao laughed when he heard this, and just when he wanted to scold a few words, Xun Yu ran in quickly.

He was dressed in a gray and white Confucian robe, wearing a Confucian crown, and holding a bamboo slip in his hand.

"Sikong, Yangzhou Express, Yuan Shu sacrificed to the sky in Jiujiang, set Shouchun as the pseudo-capital, and arrogated the emperor!"

Neither Cao Cao nor Liu Bei showed overly surprised expressions, as if all this was taken for granted.

As early as when those despicable rumors circulated in the Huainan area, they knew that there would be such a day.

"The hero Yuan Shu is the emperor."

Cao Cao smiled, and his taunting skills were full, "What a hero." ”

"I really have no eyes in the next place, and I see him as a hero." Liu Bei blamed himself first.

Cao Cao didn't care about him, and looked at Xun Yu, "According to what was prepared before, enter the palace to face the holy request, issue an edict to beg for thieves, and summon the princes of the world to beg for thieves." ”

"Whoa."

After Xun Yu left, Liu Bei stood up, bowed down and said: "Yuan Shu has a heart of disobedience, although he is not talented, he has the blood of Gao Zu flowing on his body, and he can't sit idly by.

Please approve and allow me to go on this expedition together, and I am willing to be the vanguard and kill the rebels! ”

This trip into the tiger's den, the things you need have been obtained, and it's time to escape.

Cao Cao fiddled with his short beard and looked at Liu Bei with half-squinted eyes.

After a long time, he smiled loudly, "Xuande, take out the arrogance of the sour dates to beg the thieves, and be sure to quell the chaos for the imperial court." ”

"Thank you, Sikong!"

Break through the iron cage to escape the tiger and leopard, and suddenly open the golden lock and walk the dragon!

This is Liu Bei's inner monologue.
