"Then Your Majesty, the minister will retire first, and if there is any other news, the minister will report to you when he enters the palace." After confirming the situation on Zhen Mi's side, Guo Jia got up and said goodbye and left.

Looking at Guo Jia's departing back, Liu Xie touched his chin, recalled the conversation just now, and couldn't help but fall into contemplation,

The tide of the war has now become out of its original history.

He couldn't guess who the final winner of the battle against Yuan Shu would be, there were too many unpredictable variables.

But in his heart, compared to Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, he hoped that Lu Bu would win.

After all, compared to other warlords on one side, Lu Bu can simply be called a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty.

If Cao Cao becomes bigger, Liu Xie will definitely die if he falls into his hands.

And when Yuan Shao becomes bigger, he will be a puppet for the rest of his life, without any freedom.

"Feng Xian, don't let Yuan Shao and Cao Cao occupy too much of Yuan Shu's territory."

Liu Xie prayed in his heart.

As long as Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's forces are not allowed to develop, even if Sun Ce achieves the final fruits of victory, he can accept it.

……

It's June, and it's very hot.

Yuan Shao did not stay in Yecheng, but led his family and a group of confidants to go to a mountain villa more than ten miles away from Yecheng to escape the summer, and took a tour of the mountains and rivers by the way.

Halfway up the mountainside, inside a gazebo.

Yuan Shao ordered the maid to carry several jars of unopened wine into the pavilion, and smiled at everyone: "This plum wine is made from the best green plums, and it has been buried in the mountains for several years. ”

"It's rare for you to be here today, there is nothing else in the mountains, only this wine can entertain."

The maid opened the mud seal of the wine jar, and the fragrance suddenly escaped.

Most of the people present were good drinkers, especially Xu You, who couldn't hold back immediately after smelling the aroma of wine, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up, hurry up!" Pour me a bowl! ”

Seeing him so impatient, Yuan Shao teased: "Ziyuan, your habit of drinking still hasn't changed. ”

Hearing this, Xu You held the wine bowl and said solemnly: "Wine is the essence of food, and drinking more alcohol can prolong life." ”

"I drink so that I can live longer, accompany my lord for a long time, and assist my lord to achieve great things!"

These words couldn't help but make everyone burst into laughter.

"You drunkard!"

Yuan Shao scolded with a smile, but he didn't really care about this, "Ziyuan is right, if I want to achieve great things, I can't do without your assistance." ”

"Come, I salute you!"

Everyone also picked up the wine bowl and said, "To the lord!" ”

The atmosphere in the pavilion was quite pleasant for a while.

Jia Xu was drinking while looking at the people in the pavilion, but he didn't see the young figure, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.

Today, all the strategists under Yuan Shao's command are here.

But he didn't see Guo Jia.

Jia Xu looked at Yuan Shang, who was sitting beside him, and asked, "Didn't Master Guo come over with him?" ”

Yuan Shang was still thinking about whether to toast Jia Xu, but he didn't expect him to take the initiative to talk to him, and he was immediately quite happy: "Feng Xiao was unwell, so he didn't come." ”

"I see." Jia Xu nodded and didn't ask any more.

But he probably guessed in his heart that Guo Jia should have entered the palace to meet the Son of Heaven while everyone was out.

In this way, the palace guards seem to be loyal to the Son of Heaven, otherwise Guo Jia frequently sees the Son of Heaven, and there is already news.

Jia Xu silently calculated in his heart the chances of the Son of Heaven getting rid of Yuan Shao's control.

Just when everyone was drinking and chatting, Tian Feng suddenly got up and said, "Lord, Feng has something to say." ”

Yuan Shao asked, "What's the matter with Yuan Hao?" ”

Tian Feng Zhengse said: "My lord, the great cause has not been accomplished at the moment, and the world is in dispute, you really shouldn't be greedy for pleasure here." ”

"After drinking, let's go back to the city quickly, there are many matters waiting for you to decide."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere of the scene suddenly cooled down.

A hint of annoyance flashed in Yuan Shao's eyes, he had worked hard for many years, and he couldn't enjoy it for a few days?

Holding back his anger, he said: "If Yuan Hao wants to go back, go back first!" I'm going to play here with you for a few days! ”

Yuan Shao was really tired of this Tian Feng in his heart, and always picked him to stand up and contradict him when he was most interested!

Now I even have to say two words when I go out of the city to play and drink!

"Yuan Hao, you've drunk too much." Seeing that Yuan Shao's face was not good, he hurriedly got up and played a round for Tian Feng.

But Tian Feng didn't advance, and after hearing Yuan Shao's words, he really gave up his hand and said, "Nafeng will retire first." ”

With that, he got up and walked out of the gazebo.

Seeing this, everyone looked at each other.

Yuan Shao slapped the table heavily, and said with a gloomy face: "Don't worry about him!" Keep drinking! ”

Tian Feng, who looked at Tian Feng, sighed softly.

Jia Xu watched all this coldly, glanced at Yuan Shao with a calm face, and then glanced at the departing Tian Feng, and couldn't help shaking his head in his heart.

"Yuan Shao is really not someone to follow."

He observes that a person never looks at what the other person does under normal circumstances, but what the other person does when they are angry, sad, and frightened.

Because people are usually disguised, and only when emotions are revealed can they see their true nature.

Yuan Shao's treatment of Tian Feng, who was outspoken and kind, shows that he is not a wise master, and it is difficult for such a person to achieve great things.

"I don't know how the Son of Heaven compares to Yuan Shao, and how he has grown compared to a few years ago?" Jia Xu was a little curious.

The true face of the Son of Heaven who can make people like Guo Jia willing to help is definitely not what he saw when he entered the palace that day, I am afraid it is just a disguise.

"My lord! Lord——! ”

When Jia Xu was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a shout in his ears, looked up, and saw Tian Feng going and returning.

Yuan Shao frowned, and said with a cold face: "Isn't Yuan Hao going back to the city, what are you going to do when you come back?" ”

"My lord! There is an urgent report from General Yan Liangwen and Chou! Tian Feng always ignored the ridicule in Yuan Shao's words, and presented a report with a solemn expression.

"There was an urgent report from the front line in Yangzhou, Lu Bu took Zhongli County and fought Huaishui with Yuan Shu; On the day of the decisive battle, Lu Bu shot Yuan Shu's general Le Shu across the river, and then crossed the river to defeat Yuan Shu! ”

"Yuan Shu's 60,000-strong army was wiped out, and under the cover of Zhang Xiu, he retreated to Shou County, and Lu Bu has now ordered the army to advance to Shou County!"

"In addition, Cao Cao's 50,000 troops are under the city of Shou County, and Sun Ce of Jiangdong is also outside Shou County!"

Tian Feng's words directly stunned everyone.

"Bring it!"

Yuan Shao didn't care about the unhappiness that happened between him and Tian Feng just now, and directly took the report and read it, and his expression quickly became solemn.

It wasn't until he read the entire report several times that he gritted his teeth and scolded unwillingly: "Yuan Shu, how can you be so unbearable that you let my Yuan family's territory fall into the hands of others!" ”

He never expected that Lu Bu would be able to defeat Yuan Shu with such a slight loss.

This is completely different from what he planned at the beginning!

Lu Bu didn't obey the army, how could he cross Lu Bu's territory of swallowing Yuan Shu?

What's more, now that Cao Cao has stepped in, coupled with the fierce Jiangdong Sun Ce, Yuan Shao can't think of how Yan Liangwen will fight for him under the three-way people.
