Yuan Shao was pleased to hear that the imperial court had admitted his position as governor of Jizhou. Although he forcibly seized Jizhou from Han Fu with both hard and soft measures, he took the post of Jizhou governor by himself. Without the recognition of the imperial court, he could not help but say something wrong.
"Minister..."
before Yuan Shao was out of the line, a man behind him spoke first.
"Why didn't the envoy bring the emperor's edict?"
Xu you suddenly stepped out of the column and asked the envoy.
The envoys were stunned and pretended to be angry: "Yuan Jizhou, I came under the order of the emperor. The emperor appointed yuan Jizhou as the governor because he believed that Yuan Jizhou could govern Jizhou. Now even his officials can't control it. Hum..."
yuan shaomei frowned: "Ziyuan, back down!"
"Lord!" However, Xu you looks anxious and gives Yuan Shao a look, but Yuan Shao has never heard of it.
"Mr. Yuan has already arranged the post house. Please take a rest." Yuan Shao drinks after retreating Xu you, respectfully way.
"Hum."
The envoy snorted and walked out of the chamber.
But Yuan Shao was always respectful, until the envoy left, this did not change his face, stepped on the throne.
He looked at Xu you and complained, "Ziyuan, you were too rude just now. The envoys are sent by the imperial court. It's better to be polite. How can you make such a fuss over the guests and dominate the host?"
Xu you sighed: "Lord, there is a conspiracy in this edict."
Yuan shaomei frowned: "Oh? Tell me. "
"The envoys of the imperial court came with the order of the emperor, so why not bring the emperor's edict? Is it not nominal?" Xu you said angrily: "I'm afraid that Liu Ye is dissatisfied with the Lord's occupation of Jizhou, but he is held back by the Yellow turban thieves and deliberately pacifies him. As for what Jizhou governor, Jizhou has long been in the Lord's pocket, and he needs to admit it?"
Yuan shaomei's head sank: "well, reasonable, reasonable."
Yuan Shao also looked at Fengji. It was Fengji who suggested Yuan Shao seize Jizhou. It can be said that Fengji was Yuan Shao's most trusted counselor.
Feng Ji saw Yuan Shao looking at himself and said, "my Lord, Ziyuan is right. I heard that Dong Zhuo moved his capital to Luoyang in a hurry and left the jade seal in a hurry. Later, Liu ye saved the jade seal. Since the jade seal is in hand, why not issue an imperial edict
"I'm afraid that Liu Ye, who regarded himself as orthodox, ordered the Lord to attack Gongsun Zan. This is a strategy of two tigers fighting against each other and has to be prevented."
Yuan Shao nodded: "yes, so it's not necessarily necessary to accept the imperial edict. Anyway, Jizhou is already in my hands, and the imperial court has only secret orders instead of imperial edicts..."
"Alas..." he sighed secretly, but still bowed his hands.
"Yuan Gong, I have a word."
Yuan Shao smiles: "I've heard that Gonghe is a high scholar in Hebei Province for a long time. There must be good advice. Please say so."
"In my opinion, the LORD had better accept this secret order." You teach slowly.
Yuan Shao looks strange: "why is this?" Xu you and Feng Ji are both famous scholars in Nanyang. They usually give advice to him. Why do you persuade yourself to do the opposite?
"Who is your greatest enemy?" Instead of answering, Ju asked yuan shaoti.
"Gongsun Zan, of course." Yuan Shao's expression is dignified. Gongsun Zan is not an easy role to deal with. He is known as the white horse general. His white horse Yi is incomparable in riding and shooting, and the number of cavalry is more than ten thousand. All of them are border troops fighting with Wuhuan people all the year round. Their fighting effectiveness is strong. Now Gongsun Zan is carrying the power of defeating millions of yellow scarves.
"If Sun Ye and Zhang Gongwei were to take advantage of the opportunity of Sun Ye to take advantage of the opportunity of Sun Ye's attack on the city of Heishan, how could Sun Ye, led by sun Yeh, take advantage of the opportunity of Liu Gongwei to attack the city of Heishan
"This..." Yuan Shao was suddenly shocked by a cold sweat.
"The Lord accepted the secret order. It seems that there is no loss or gain on the surface, but it is actually a signal." Ju said seriously: "this is a signal from the Lord to Liu Ye. If the Lord accepts the secret edict to show his favor to Liu Ye, it is equivalent to stabilizing Liu Ye."
"Nowadays, there are many heroes in the world. Although Liu Ye wants to invigorate the imperial court, it can't be done overnight. It's enough for him to be busy just by being in the Central Plains. The Lord must take advantage of Liu Ye's expedition to defeat Gongsun Zan as soon as possible and control the land of Yan and Zhao. In the north, he can compete with Liu Ye by virtue of Wuhuan and Xianbei barbarians."
Hearing Ju's grand strategic plan, Yuan Shao was overjoyed: "Mr. Gonghe is really a great talent!"
"Some decided to accept the secret edict as Jizhou governor, and immediately sent troops to attack Gongsun Zan!" Yuan Shao raised his voice.
"No!"
Jizhou's civil and martial arts were handed over one after another, and he was dismissed. Although Ju was praised by Yuan Shao, he returned to his home alone.
"Gong and brother."
From behind came a voice. It turned out to be Xun Chen. Ju Xun turned around and said, "if you are brother, what's the matter?"Xun Chen trotted a few steps to catch up with him and said with a smile, "Gonghe, today you are a great show of face under Yuan Gong, and I admire you very much for my brother."
Ju gave a faint smile: "nothing, if you are a brother, sooner or later you will think of it."
Unexpectedly, Xun Chen had a cold smile: "Gonghe, you have made a mistake today."
Ju's eyebrows a congealed: "is it difficult to be a friend? If brother does not agree with a plan?"
Xun Chen shook his head: "no, no, public and strategic, first Hebei, and then map the Central Plains, brother nature is also recognized. It's just that you and your brother shouldn't have said it at this time. "
Ju was confused by Xun Chen: "the Lord asked the policy, a minister, how can you hide your clumsy?"
"Xu Ziyuan and fengyuantu are all old ministers of Yuan Gong. The proposal put forward by Gonghe is totally opposite to his two people. Isn't it that Xu Ziyuan and fengyuantu are not able to come to the stage?" Xunzi warned: "if you become a brother, you will not speak. You will tell Yuan Gong in private."
However, Ju Shuo shook his head: "the Lord has questions, and the ministers have answers. Besides, some are not for the sake of success and profit, but for the great cause of Yuan Gong. Even so, it is nothing."
Xun Chen sighed: "Gonghe, I really don't know what to say to you. It's just that. You can do it yourself."
After that, they parted ways, and Ju always looked solemn.
On the same day, Yuan Shao ordered people to send 200 pieces of silk to juxu's house. When Fengji and Xu you heard about it, their reactions were different. Feng Ji only expressed Yuan Gong's love for talents, while Xu you was insinuating that Yuan Shao was fond of the new and disgusted with the old. Yuan Shao then sent each of them 100 pieces of silk. Feng Ji expressed his gratitude to Yuan Shao. Although Xu you said nothing, he was complaining secretly that his reward was not as good as his reward.
