Zhao Wen sat on the couch, sweating all over and did not move for a long time.
He knew very well that the emperor was very angry.
The sentence "Don't say that you don't expect anything" is not only about Yuan Shao, but also about him.
The emperor gave him face and was willing to give Yuan Shao another chance. As long as Yuan Shao was willing to bow his head and submit, not only could the wealth in front of him be preserved, but he could also go further and be the most powerful minister.
This concession was large enough that he could hardly bear his advice.
Zhao Wen sighed again and again, and the more he thought about it, the more ashamed he felt.
After a while, Sikong Zhang Xi pushed the tent in. "Zirou, what can you do?"
Zhao Wen glanced at Zhang Xi and suddenly felt a blushing.
As the Third Duke of the Emperor, he was determined to fight for benefits for Yuan Shao, which was simply a shame for the minister.
What made him feel even more ashamed was that he was even more than Zhang Xi, and even forced him to die, which was simply despicable and despicable.
Zhao Wen endured the disgust and said the conversation he had just had with the emperor.
Zhang Xi frowned slightly and smacked her lips. "Zirou, whose idea do you think this is? Jia Xu or Xun You?"
"Why isn't the emperor's own decision?" Zhao Wen said angrily: "Did he know that I would give him a warning?"
"Uh..." Zhang Xi looked embarrassed and quickly patted Zhao Wen's hand to apologize. "Zirou's plan is really clever, who could have predicted it? I just think the emperor is smart, knowing that Yuan Shao can't come...
"
"Wait." Zhao Wen sat up suddenly and grabbed Zhang Xi's shoulder. "Is it possible for Yuan Shao to come?"
Zhang Xi looked at Zhao Wen in surprise. "Zirou, don't you think Yuan Shao will come, right? He has nothing to do with his thoughts, don't you know?"
Zhao Wen stared at Zhang Xi, his lips twitched, and he wanted to speak but stopped several times.
"Are you sure he won't come?" Zhao Wen felt weak all over.
Zhang Xi hesitated for a moment and nodded vigorously. "Eight out of ten."
Zhao Wen sighed. "Planning depends on others, and success depends on God. I have done my best."
Liu Xie returned to the imperial tent and sat in front of the desk, still unsure of his anger.
Zhao Wen's performance made him very angry, and at the same time he also allowed him to see Yuan Shao's influence.
Zhao Wen is from Yizhou and has no direct relationship with Yuan. He can imagine that he can work so hard for Yuan Shao.
For example, Sikong Zhang Xi.
Zhang Xi is from Runan and has a close relationship with the Yuan family.
"Your Majesty." Cai Yan handed over the record he had just finished.
Liu Xie read it and his mood gradually calmed down. "Ling Shi, is my decision a little bit unlucky?"
Cai Yan lowered his head. "I am not familiar with government affairs and dare not speak nonsense. If Your Majesty has any doubts, why not consult his close ministers, such as Xun Shizhong. He is agile and observant, and will definitely be able to solve doubts for Your Majesty."
Liu Xie smiled twice. "Why is Lingshi so humble today?"
Cai Yan looked embarrassed and said embarrassedly: "I follow Your Majesty. The more I see you, the more I feel that I am shallow. This court affairs are far from what is recorded in historical records, and I cannot guess them."
Liu Xie raised his eyebrows lightly. "Ling Shi has great insights and will be limitless in the future." He thought for a while and said, "Is this Ling Zun's teaching?"
Cai Yan was stunned for a moment and was silent for a while. "As Your Majesty said, my father did say similar words when he was there. Now I think about it, I feel quite self-reflective. But I was young and energetic at that time, and I had never thought deeply, and I am now in the court.
Only then did the Tang gradually understand what he meant."
Liu Xie sighed secretly.
The children of this aristocratic family are the children of aristocratic families. They have been influenced by them since childhood. The starting point is high and the entry situation is much faster than that of the poor.
Liu Xie and Cai Yan chatted for a few words and ordered someone to invite Xun You.
I was so angry that I agreed to Zhao Wen just now. Now that I think about it, I feel a little regretful.
What if Yuan Shao really comes?
With Yuan Shao's influence, he really wanted to take charge of the court and become a general. The civil and military officials in the court were not only followed by his leader, but his emperor became a puppet.
Maybe he really became the emperor who sacrificed his throne.
It didn't take long, and Xun You came, as calm as ever, as if nothing had happened in ancient wells.
After reading the records that Cai Yan had just completed, Xun You bowed and sat down. "Your Majesty is worried that Yuan Shao will be called?"
"Will he come?"
"No." Xun You said: "Especially when Guo Tu was humiliated."
Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty actually doesn't have to worry about Yuan Shao. There is no difference between coming or not."
"Why?"
"Yuan Shao is a man of a high school and likes to be graceful, but he is sensitive and conceited, and strives for the first place everywhere. When he has an advantage, he may be able to give in and show his generousness. When he is at a disadvantage, he must fight for a slight margin to show his unyielding concession.
He defeated Gongsun Zan and took You Ji all, and might enter the court to assist in the government, in the name of Cheng Zhou Gong. Now he is entangled with Gongsun Zan and has lost face. How can he be willing to do it?"
Liu Xie thought about it repeatedly and felt that Xun You was right.
Yuan Shao is not a person who is willing to be inferior to others, and it is absolutely impossible to admit his mistakes.
Now that he defeated Li Jue, Yuan Shao was exhausted by Gongsun Zan, so he had no face to join the court to assist in the government.
Dayangjin.
General Jianyi and Hanoi prefect Zhang Yang stood on the shore with a few personal guards. He watched the soldiers of the General Yang Ding's troops from afar and lined up one after another, feeling uneasy.
After learning that the emperor defeated Li Jue, he personally led three thousand soldiers, carrying food, crossed mountains and ridges, and saw an unexpected scene.
I thought that the emperor and Li Jue had a bloody battle, even if both were not injured, they should have injured soldiers and their morale was depressed.
But everything in front of us was completely opposite. Not only were there many people, but they were all full of energy and firm steps.
The same is true for the Weiwei Camp that just passed by a day ago.
At a rough look, there were at least five thousand infantry and cavalry in the Weiwei Camp, including many of them.
This is completely different from the Weiwei Camp he saw in Luoyang a few years ago.
This made him feel awe of Sun Rui, the guard who was doing the Grand Marshal.
Shi Sun Rui can be called a famous general if he can train the Weiwei Camp, which is mainly composed of Luoyang's tyrants, into this shape.
He wanted to get close to Shi Sun Rui, but Shi Sun Rui didn't give him this opportunity. He sent a military officer to ask a few simple questions and asked him to wait for the emperor on the spot. He led his troops forward and rushed to Anyi.
After waiting anxiously for a day after crossing the river, Zhang Yang could finally see the emperor.
The first person to cross the river was the latter general Yang Ding, whose troops were about four or five thousand.
After landing, Yang Ding immediately deployed his soldiers to guard the situation, and drove Zhang Yang and his subordinates five hundred steps away from the ferry. All the soldiers were wearing armor, with their swords on their waists, and their bows were stolen, as if they were facing a great enemy.
Zhang Yang was very nervous.
He had three thousand people, but these three thousand people were in a marching state and were not wearing armor.
If Yang Ding suddenly attacked, he would not have time to react.
But he could not order the soldiers to wear armor, which would make Yang Ding suspect his intentions and launch an attack directly.
Although he was all elite, he did not have the courage to fight against Yang Ding.
Yang Ding's subordinates were mainly Western Liang soldiers and their weapons were relatively neat, which was not something he could match from afar.
He could only wait more humbly and patiently for the emperor to arrive.
The sun gradually rose and gradually turned west, and Zhang Yang was exhausted.
Fortunately, the waiting was about to end, and the crossing of the river that the emperor was riding on was slowly shored, and the emperor's flag was shining in the sunset.
