Chapter 73: Yuan Shu blocked the way for Sun Jian to escape
Chapter 73 Yuan Shu blocks the road and Sun Jian escapes
Facing what Cao Cao said, Liu Bei did not dare to make a mistake at this moment and said: "It's a pity that Xuande has no one, otherwise he would have sent a large army to follow Brother Mengde to attack Dong!"
After hearing this, Cao Cao said with sharp eyes: "So, Liu Bei is a hero?"
After hearing this, Liu Bei still didn't know that Cao Cao was testing him!
Suddenly, I felt a chill on my back, and quickly said calmly: "Brother Meng De, what are you talking about? Xuande is the Queen of Prince Jing of Zhongshan, and it is my duty to help the Han Dynasty."
"Not a hero!"
Zhao Feng on the side showed a smile. This Cao Cao is quite naughty. Now Liu Bei only has a thousand troops, so how dare he talk nonsense.
Drinking and laughing with Cao Cao, he was frightened, as if he was talking to the leader, and he did not dare to talk nonsense at all.
"I think Brother Xuande is also a very human being, why don't you join me in planning something big?"
Hearing this, Liu Bei was even more frightened. Did he mean to rebel?
"Brother Meng De is really good at joking. Xuande is just a man who weaves mats and sells shoes. If we want to talk about important matters, I have other important things to attend to, so I won't stay with you much today."
Liu Bei dared to continue talking, but he was scared away by Cao Cao with just a few words.
On the other side, just when Sun Jian was about to leave the Luoyang area, he suddenly found a familiar figure appearing in front of him, blocking his way.
The person who came turned out to be Yuan Shu, the governor of Nanyang!
I saw Yuan Shu with a smile on his face as he hurriedly stopped Sun Jian's army.
Sun Jian's face froze and he said calmly: "I wonder why Brother Road blocked my way?"
Looking at Yuan Shu's appearance, Sun Jian was a little uneasy. He didn't tell anyone about getting the imperial seal. Yuan Shu shouldn't know about it!
Then Sun Jian continued: "We have something important to do. If nothing happens, Brother Gu, please let us leave first."
Even so, Sun Jian still felt guilty and eager to leave here.
Yuan Shu smiled slightly: "Brother Wentai left in such a hurry, is there something unspeakable?"
"Or is it that Brother Wentai found something he shouldn't have from the palace?"
Hearing this, Sun Jian's expression changed. How could he not know at this time that Yuan Shu had obviously known that he had obtained the Jade Seal of the Kingdom.
But even so, Sun Jian also knew that he could never admit it. If other princes knew that he had obtained the imperial seal, they might all come to intercept him, and in the end they would not even be able to get out of Luoyang City!
Yuan Shu stopped him in such a secretive way, obviously he had an idea about this national jade seal and would never tell anyone else.
But looking at Yuan Shu's appearance, Sun Jian also smiled and said, "Why can't I understand what Brother Gu is saying?"
Seeing Sun Jian's expression, Yuan Shu was not surprised at all, "Brother Wentai, could it be that he has a bad memory and can't remember anything he took away from the palace?"
Sun Jian said expressionlessly: "Wen Tai doesn't know."
Seeing Sun Jian's expression of refusal, Yuan Shu had no intention of being polite anymore and said, "Since Brother Wentai has such a bad memory, I have no choice but to help you think about it."
"On that day, where did you put the imperial seal that you fished out from the well in the palace?"
Yuan Shu's loud voice came out, and the surrounding area instantly became quiet.
However, Sun Jian said with a gloomy look: "Brother Gu, don't be slanderous. When did I get the Jade Seal of the Kingdom?"
Sun Jian's mentality was much better than Yuan Shu imagined. As long as he refused to admit it, Yuan Shu had no reason to intercept him.
Moreover, after obtaining the imperial seal, how could it not be possible for Sun Jian to hide it?
"Brother Highway, if you still won't let me go, don't blame me for being rude!"
"You know, I, Sun Wentai, am not someone to be bullied!"
Yuan Shu sneered, it seems that today's matter may not be let go.
"Even now, you still don't admit it. Believe it or not, I also recognized all the people who were fishing in that well that day!"
After hearing these words, Sun Jian's expression changed instantly. Yuan Shu had indeed placed a spy in his place!
He knew so much about the news around him, but there was a trace of greed in Sun Jian's eyes.
How could the jade seal that he had finally obtained be given to others?
"Brother Qiu, please don't bully others too much. I, Sun Wentai, swear to God that I have never seen any imperial seal, otherwise I will die among random arrows!"
Sun Jian's eyes flickered, and he did not avoid Yuan Shu's gaze at all.
"Okay, very good!" Seeing Sun Jian's determination, Yuan Shu also knew that there would be no possibility of stopping Sun Jian now.
"Let's go!" Yuan Shu looked back with a gloomy look.
Without getting the imperial seal, how could it be possible for Sun Jian to leave safely? If not for the lack of troops today, they would have wanted to intercept him on the spot.
At the same time, after Yuan Shu got out of the way, Sun Jian and others immediately left in a hurry.
After returning, Yuan Shu immediately contacted Liu Biao.
How could he let that jade seal go so easily? Yuan Shu had coveted that jade seal for a long time.
Yuan Shu gave a sinister smile. Sun Jian was dependent on him. If he cut off all supplies to him, Sun Jian would definitely not be able to expose him!
But how could Yuan Shu use such a useless method? If this was really the case, Sun Jian would definitely be more wary!
As long as he is under his own command, it is not easy to do things. Instead of cutting off any supplies, he will allocate more to him.
Although Sun Jian did not win in the previous battles, he never fell into a disadvantage. He was the strongest among the eighteen princes except Cao Cao.
"Come here, tell Liu Biao the news about Sun's insistence on transmitting the national jade seal." Yuan Shu said with a faint smile.
Next, I don't need to use any soldiers, I just need to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.
Liu Biao is a herdsman in Jingzhou, and Sun Jian happens to be in Changsha, Jingzhou. There will definitely be a battle between the two. No matter who wins in the end, he will be able to reap the benefits!
Jingzhou, in the administrative center.
Liu Biao looked at a secret letter sent by an unknown person, his eyes flickering.
"Sun Wentai ran away holding the imperial seal!"
There is no doubt that Sun Jian will definitely return to Changsha, and Changsha is right under his nose.
How could Liu Biao not be tempted when Yuxi passed by under his nose?
Liu Biao waved his hand and said: "Huang Zuke is here, I order you to intercept Sun Jian on his way back!"
Huang Zu's eyes flickered, he stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "No!"
Huang Zu was a general under Liu Biao, and he used cunning tactics and unscrupulous tactics. Sun Jian and others returned in a hurry, how could he be his opponent?
At the same time, Sun Jian looked happy at this moment, and he would be able to return to Changsha in less than half a day's journey.
And the jade seal passed down from the country is actually in his own hand. According to rumors, if he proclaims himself emperor without the jade seal in his hand, it means that he is not lucky enough and cannot be recognized by heaven!
Along the way, except for Yuan Shu who briefly intercepted him at the beginning, no one intercepted him later.
Sun Jian smiled slightly. His guess was indeed correct. Yuan Shu really didn't dare to tell anyone about this matter.
