Talking about Zhen Mi's entry into the palace, Liu Xieke is not sleepy.

He had a lot of questions in his heart and wanted to ask Guo Jia for confirmation.

"Feng Xiao let Zhen Mi into the palace, is it to bring the Zhongshan Zhen family to me as an arm?" Liu Xie asked straight to the point.

In ancient times, the in-laws of such wealthy families were all from the perspective of interests.

He didn't think that Guo Jia was just trying to send him a beautiful woman.

Guo Jia nodded and said: "That's true, the Zhen family of Zhongshan is a wealthy man in Jizhou, if you can win them over, it will be very helpful to Your Majesty." ”

"However, the main purpose of this minister is actually to separate the two brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang; As for sending Zhen Mi into the palace and winning over the Zhen family, it was just a convenient move, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive the ministers for making arbitrary claims. ”

It's no problem to separate the two brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang.

But he made the decision to send Zhen Mi to the harem of the Son of Heaven, and he didn't even ask the Son of Heaven for instructions, which is disrespectful to the ministers.

"Hey! Where is the word of Bonghyo! ”

Liu Xie waved his hand and said righteously: "The so-called generals are outside, the king's order is not affected, you think about me, how can I be that kind of pedantic and conservative stubbornness?" ”

"You can do it boldly, I believe in you!"

Just kidding, people are trying to win over him again, and they are sending him the first beauty of the ages as his wife, what kind of anger is he angry about?

Unless he's the younger brother of Ignorant Fire Dance, he doesn't know what to do.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

With Liu Xie's permission, Guo Jia's expression relaxed a lot.

He's been worried about it.

After all, monarchs and ministers, fathers, fathers, sons, and sons are the way of etiquette that must be adhered to throughout the ages, and it is easy to be suspicious of the Son of Heaven if they trespass without permission.

Fortunately, the Majesty to whom he is loyal today is not that pedantic.

After chatting about this matter, Liu Xie continued to ask: "But Fengxiao, what should I do if Zhen Mi finds out about my dealings and plans with you after entering the palace?" ”

"If you want to seek help from Zhongshan Zhen, it's essential to let her know, right? But doing so also increases the risk of exposure. ”

This is what Liu Xie is most worried about.

Why can he trust Zhang He, Gao Ran and Guo Jia?

It is because the records of them in history are more detailed, and now at this point in time, it is also the time when they have not been subdued, so he can use the identity of the Son of Heaven and the method of drawing a big pie to bring them under his command.

The most important thing is that they are not attached to any other force.

But Zhen Mi is different, first of all, he doesn't know about it, and there is no very detailed record in the history books; secondly, he was called to the palace, which was not his own wish; Moreover, he was born in the Zhen family, and the marriage was to seek benefits for the Zhen family.

And he is now a son of heaven who has no power or power, what is there to gain?

On the contrary, after knowing his and Guo Jia's plan, he went to tell Yuan Shao, which would bring greater benefits to the Zhen family behind him.

"Whether Zhen Mi can trust it or not, it's still uncertain."

Guo Jia gave an ambiguous answer, and then said, "When she enters the palace, Your Majesty can observe it." ”

"If you are not trustworthy, then be cautious in the future; Anyway, as long as there is such a relationship, it will always be more beneficial than disadvantageous to seek Zhen's help at a critical moment in the future. ”

Liu Xie thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand." ”

Guo Jia got up and said, "Then Your Majesty, the minister will retire first." ”

"Wait!"

Liu Xie pressed Guo Jia back, then poured him a bowl of ginseng soup, and said with a smile: "Come, dry this bowl of ginseng soup." ”

Guo Jia's face instantly stiffened.

Bitter also.

……

When Yecheng was intrigued because of a Zhen Mi.

The situation in the outside world has also changed dramatically.

And the reason is that Yuan Shao called on all the princes to unite to fight the thief.

As expected by Yuan Shao's advisers, after this news spread, many doubts about Yuan Shao's subordinates disappeared.

After all, Yuan Shaodu has already broken openly with Yuan Shu, and he is going to send troops to fight, who can say that he and Yuan Shu are in the same boat?

After the order to beg the thief was issued, the 50,000 army led by General Yan Liangwen Chou directly set off from Pei County and headed for Yangzhou.

And Lu Bu also dispatched a full army of 30,000 to fight the thief.

As for Liu Bei, it is much shabby.

Although he recaptured Peixian, it was really impossible to gather enough men and horses in a short period of time, so he only recruited more than 1,000 men and horses; Then he borrowed another 2,000 from Lu Bu, and with the original remnants of the army, he had enough more than 5,000 people, barely forming an army on his own.

In this way, the three parties temporarily formed an alliance to crusade against Yuan Shu.

After all, crusading against rebels is the greatest political correctness of this era.

Especially a traitor like Yuan Shu, who rebelled against the emperor.

Yuan Shao served the Son of Heaven, and it was impossible not to send troops to conscript; Liu Bei is a relative of the Han family, and whoever rebels and becomes emperor is the enemy; As for Lu Bu, not to mention, Wen Hou, who was personally appointed by the Son of Heaven, originally raised troops in the name of Kuangfu Han, and he couldn't say anything if he didn't do it.

In the face of such righteousness, the contradictions of all parties can be put aside.

Cao Cao, on the other hand, ignored Yuan Shao's call and was currently sending troops to attack Zhang Xiu in Wancheng.

The reason is simple.

The emperor of Xu County issued an edict to let Zhang Xiu send troops to attack Yuan Shu, but he kept his troops still, which attracted Cao Cao to send an army to crusade.

Jingzhou Liu Biao was even more rotten, whether it was Yuan Shao's call or Cao Cao's dispatch of troops to attack his vassal Zhang Xiu, he pretended to be deaf and dumb and directly called himself sick.

But even if Cao Cao and Liu Biao don't participate in the war, Yuan Shu is not having a good time now.

Because he not only has to face the joint crusade of Yuan Shao, Lu Bu, and Liu Bei (this can be ignored), but also has internal troubles.

After Sun Ce became emperor, he openly broke with him.

and seized the four counties of Jiangdong and eyed each other.

After learning the news that Yuan Shao called on all the princes to beg for thieves, he was the first to send troops and captured the two counties of Danyang and Lujiang with lightning speed.

Now he has occupied the six major counties in Jiangdong, nearly half of Yangzhou's territory, and is eyeing Shouchun's Yuan Shu.

At this point, the four-way army will fight Yuan Shu together!

It can be described as the enemy of the world!

……

Yangzhou, to be precise, should now be called Chengguo.

After Yuan Shu established himself as emperor, he included the entire Yangzhou into the territory of Chengguo, and the capital was in Shou County.

It's just that the outside world doesn't admit it at all.

The news of the joint crusade of the armies from all walks of life has now been known by Yuan Shu, and after learning about it, he was so angry that he scolded on the spot.

"Yuan Shao! How dare you! ”

In the palace, Yuan Shu, who was dressed in a dragon robe and wore the crown of the Son of Heaven, was furious and threw the report in his hand on the head of a courtier below.

Then he roared angrily to the ministers in the palace: "Spread my will! Assemble your army to fight! I'm going to destroy all these thieves! ”

The roar of anger echoed throughout the hall.
