Treacherous ministers have deep routines

At the welcome banquet that day, Yuan Shao was very anxious because he failed to win over Liu Yu, Shepherd of Youzhou.

Seeing that the time when King Chen Liu ascended the throne is getting closer, Liu Yu seems to have become a supporter of King Chen Liu, which is not at all what Yuan Shao expected.

Also in history, Yuan Shao wanted to elect Liu Yu, shepherd of Youzhou, as the new emperor on the grounds that King Chenliu was controlled by Tong Gao when he was young, and he didn't know his life or death.

Now that Zhang Rang's appearance made Yuan Shao's plan come to nothing before it started again, how could Yuan Shao swallow this breath.

Moreover, the patriarch Liu Yu is already Yuan Shao's last life-saving straw. If Liu Yu cannot ascend the throne, then Yuan Shao will be suppressed by Wei Man and will never recover.

Yuan Shao felt even more anxious when he thought of this, so he took advantage of the darkness to get out of the tent and quietly came to the tent of Mu Liuyu in Youzhou.

Yuan Shao said loudly: "Grand Liu, do you dare to ask if Mr. Liu has rested?"

Liu Yuben, the shepherd of Youzhou, had already rested. After all, it was a quiet night. Hearing Yuan Shao's voice, he got up quickly and said, "Mr. Yuan, please wait a moment."

Liu Yu hurriedly put on his clothes, came out to meet him personally, and said, "I don't know what the hell is going on with Mr. Yuan coming here late at night? Come in and talk."

Liu Yu, the shepherd of Youzhou, has been living in the frontier for a long time, fighting against foreign thieves, but because of Yuan Shao's powerful ancestors, he also knows Liu Yu, and Liu Yu has a good relationship with Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao was also a hero in his early years, willing to make friends and very generous. Since he became the governor of Bohai, his reputation has spread far and wide. Liu Yu admires him very much, so he respects him very much.

When the two entered the camp, Yuan Shao said, "Grand Liu, this... I came here today because I actually have a very important matter, and I want to discuss it with Mr. Liu."

Seeing Yuan Shao being so cautious, Liu Yu said, "I don't know what's the matter?"

Liu Yu was born after Liu Xiu, the founding emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and his family education was extremely strict, so no matter how he behaved, he was upright, revealing a majestic Confucian style.

Yuan Shao wanted to invite him to be emperor, on the one hand, because of Liu Yu's clan, and on the other hand, because of Liu Yu's reputation as a Confucian. Liu Yu's reputation is prominent, and it is better to recommend a virtuous person than a little baby much.

Yuan Shao then said: "To tell you the truth, Mr. Liu, this...the leader of the alliance wants to elect King Chenliu as emperor. I, Yuan Shao, have no objection. It's just...it's just my Han family. Since ancient times, there have been many young emperors. Younger, after ascending to power, it is inevitable that eunuchs will be in power and foreign relatives will be in power. Over the years, how much has our Han family suffered because of these reasons? Not only that, but there is also a Tong Gao..."

Hearing this, Liu Yu squinted his eyes, but didn't speak.

Because Liu Yu is not stupid, on the contrary, he is still very shrewd. His ancestor resigned from the position of prince because of his shrewdness. , Don't be greedy if you shouldn't be greedy.

Yuan Shao continued: "When Tong Gao was young, he was also a hero, but now he has turned into such a brutal appearance. Isn't there a fault in the situation? If my master is strong, how can Tong Gao take advantage of it? ?Nowadays the rivers and mountains are in the wind and rain, and the people are suffering, how can I bear to see this scene?"

Liu Yu still didn't speak.

Yuan Shao said again: "That's what I came to discuss with Liu Gong today. I also want to ask Liu Gong what he meant. You see... Although this King Chenliu is the descendant of the first emperor, but... he is young and ignorant. If you really become the master of the people, wouldn't you repeat the same mistakes and plunge the world into fire and water?"

Hearing this, Liu Yu said calmly, "What does Mr. Yuan mean, you might as well just say it."

When Yuan Shao heard this, he hurriedly said: "Actually... what I mean is that Liu Gong is a descendant of the clan, and he is also a descendant of the blood, and now he is famous. If Liu Gong has such thoughts, I, Yuan Shao, will be the first to help. Dabao, who is in charge of the overall situation of the world, together repelled Tong Gao and took back Luoyang, I don’t know..."

Before he finished speaking, Liu Yu suddenly changed his face. He had an indifferent expression just now, but suddenly "Boom!!!" terrified a record.

Liu Yu's forehead was bulging with blue veins, and suddenly he stood up, pointed at Yuan Shao and said, "Yuan Shao! You are trying to harm me for infidelity! I, Liu Yu, is the queen of the East China Sea. I am loyal to the Han Dynasty and have fulfilled my duties for many years. I have never had two minds, how can I destroy the century-old ancestral training in my hands today!?"

"This……"

Yuan Shao didn't realize that this Liu Yu was so peaceful, he was not tempted but angry when he was asked to be the emperor. How could there be such a pedantic person in this world?

Yuan Shao hurriedly said, "Grand Liu, you misunderstood..."

"Misunderstand?"

Before Yuan Shao finished speaking, Liu Yu sneered and said, "Yes, I did misunderstand, but it was Mr. Yuan who misunderstood, and the misunderstanding was deep!"

Liu Yu said again: "Who does Duke Yuan think I am, Liu Yu? I, Liu Yu, is the queen of the East China Sea. If I have the will to stand on my own, why bother to guard Youzhou Yanbei and guard the frontier?!"

Yuan Shao was very shameless when he was refuted by Liu Yu for a while, and he felt a burning pain on his face.

Liu Yu simply said: "You don't need to say too much, Mr. Yuan. The night is getting dark. Please take a rest earlier."

He said that's all, and drove Yuan Shao out of the camp.

Yuan Shao's face turned livid immediately, he didn't expect Liu Yu to be so pedantic and ignorant of flattery.

Surprisingly, when Yuan Shao was kicked out, he even met Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu had long wanted to be self-reliant, but he suffered from lack of support. He did not approve of the establishment of Youzhou Shepherd Liu Yu. Now that Yuan Shao was deflated, he was naturally very happy, and he couldn't do without some cynicism.

Yuan Shao was kicked out of the camp by Liu Yu. How could Wei Man not know about such a big event?

When Wei Man heard it, he was so satisfied that he wished he could sleep with a smile.

On the second day, everyone gathered in the shogunate to prepare for the assembly of troops and the enthronement of King Chen Liu.

Although Suanzao is located at the intersection of the Three Realms, it is a battleground for military strategists, but the real fight against Tong Gao is not just from Suanzao.

Suanzao is a place with very convenient transportation, so everyone chooses this convenient place for the alliance. The prefects and governors of various counties don't need to cross too many territories, and they don't need to go through too many cities to come to Suanzao , an alliance oath.

Specifically for the crusade against Wei Man, Suanzao was just a base. In addition to Suanzao, the base east of Luoyang, there were Yuan Shao Wangkuang's Hanoi base in the north of Luoyang, and Yuan Shu's Luyang base in the south of Luoyang.

Kong Ni, the governor of Yuzhou, was dead, so Wei Man ordered General Polu to station troops in Yuzhou to replace Kong Ni, and became the governor of Yuzhou on the list.

Naturally, there are Shan Yu and others in the north. Although they are not from the Central Plains, they are willing to help the Central Plains, attack Tong Gao, and take back Luoyang.

Mu Hanfu of Jizhou, on the other hand, served as the rear support of the allied forces. Although he did not participate in the garrison, he needed a steady supply of food and grass and the frontline allied forces.

In this way, the deployment has been completed, and after King Chen Liu's enthronement in Suanzao, everyone participated in the enthronement ceremony, and then led their troops back to the main point of the garrison to prepare to attack Luoyang from southeast, north, southeast.

Today everyone will discuss this matter.

All the generals and county guards present here agreed, but they still felt a little scared, especially the two Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. They had the strongest troops, but they didn't want to send troops, they just wanted to garrison troops.

You must know that Tong Gao has an army of 20, which shows how powerful he is, and he has always been brave, with countless strong generals under his command, not to mention that he will inevitably suffer losses when sending troops. Yuan Shao and Yuan Shao are unified in this point. , but never the first to attack Tong Gao.

Seeing their prevarication, Wei Man knew it would not be so easy.

At this moment, someone outside the tent shouted that Tong Gao sent envoys!

The allied forces against Tong Gao have been in the Suanzao Parliament for a long time. They elected the leader and set up a plan to station troops. The last step is to send troops separately.

Tong Gao heard that the allied forces "worked together" to defeat Hu Zhen a few days ago, so he was unavoidably upset. Recently, because he wanted to elect the fake King Chenliu to the throne, he adopted the soft policy and planned to send envoys to appease and seek peace. .

The envoy sent by Tong Gao is Han Rong, the Great Honglu of the court.

The position of Dahonghe, one of the nine ministers, was a grand order in the Western Han Dynasty. It was renamed Dahonghe during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and it was actually in charge of diplomacy and so on.

Zhang Qian, who was sent to the Western Regions and made great contributions to the Western Han Dynasty, was worshiped as a great order by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and he is now the Dahonghe.

In addition to foreign diplomacy, Da Honglu is also in charge of the affairs of the princes.

Therefore, this time Tong Gao sent Dahonghe to communicate with the Suanzao allied forces.

When Wei Man heard this, he couldn't help but sneered angrily, and said, "Please come in."

Wei Man invited Tong Gao's lobbyist in, and everyone was in an uproar. For some reason, Wei Man should mercilessly send Da Honglu away.

Zhang Rang was calm. According to what he knew about Wei Man these days, Wei Man's temperament must be to entertain this big man.

After all, if Tong Gao sent someone to disgust him, he would naturally feel disgusted back, otherwise it would be a real disadvantage.

Soon Dahonglu Han Rong was invited in and saluted everyone respectfully, but before he could speak, Wei Man raised his hand to signal Dahonglu Han Rong not to speak.

Sitting sideways on the chairman of the League, Wei Man felt as if he was not seated, but because of Wei Man's upright and handsome appearance, this kind of seated appearance was actually very good-looking and very chic.

Wei Man was very friendly, and said with a smile: "Da Honglu was also a celebrity of our Han family in the past, but now he is willing to degenerate and has become a party of Dong thief. Da Honglu knows...why did the leader let you in?"

As soon as Wei Man opened his mouth, Dahonglu Han Rong's face became embarrassed, thinking that he was highly respected and old, and because he was an official in Beijing, it was inevitable to see Tong Gao's face. There is also no way.

Today I came to Suanzao, but I was humiliated by a child with a wet forehead, I was really unwilling.

But what Wei Man said was not wrong. Even though Da Honglu didn't want to sacrifice his life for Tong Gao, he still had a lot of reluctance to give up, so it was difficult to give up. That's why he became Dong thief's minion and was sent to lobby the allies.

Wei Man seemed to be talking to himself, and said with a smile: "Because... the lord of the alliance wants to throw you out."

He said that's all, everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then they all laughed "haha". For a while, there was a burst of laughter, and there were many booing.

Da Honglu Han Rong's face was dull, so Wei Man waved his hands and said, "Go back and tell Dong Thief that my allied forces will definitely take off the dog's head on Dong Thief's neck! .”

Da Honglu was pushed out, and hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute, wait a minute! Wait a moment! Dong Gong still has Zhi Jing, bring it to Youzhou Shepherd Liu Gong!"

When everyone heard this, they frowned. Tong Gao brought a meeting gift to Liu Yu. Why was it Liu Yu? There were so many people here, but Tong Gao only mentioned Liu Yu.

Liu Yu also frowned, feeling that this meeting ceremony was by no means a good thing and said, "What is it?"

Dahonglu Han Rong hurriedly waved, someone came in from outside the camp and presented a brocade box.

Da Honglu Han Rong said: "The old man is only following orders. Mr. Dong has something to say, so please ask Mr. Liu to open it himself. Among them... there must be something Mr. Liu wants to see."

The more Dahonglu Han Rong said, the more strange it became, but Zhang Rang frowned at this time, he was born with a keen sense of smell, Han Rong held the brocade box and approached slightly, Zhang Rang smelled a fishy-sweet smell.

Zhang Rang whispered, "The smell of blood."

At the same time, Liu Yu asked people to come forward and open the brocade box.

"Crack——" the brocade box opened instantly, revealing the scene inside...
