Chapter 53 Audacious
In the palace, the officers sitting in the audience all nodded.

As long as Gongsun Zan, Zhang Yan and Liu Biao can be used to contain Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu respectively, the battle is almost half won.

The remaining two forces were nothing more than a group of motley crowd from Hedong and Zhu Jun, Cao Cao and others.

In this way, the defensive pressure in Guanzhong will be greatly reduced, and the chances of winning this battle will increase by more than 30%!

For a moment, many school officers looked at Liu Xie with different eyes.

The Emperor of the Han Dynasty was born sacred.

To these officers, the emperor of the Han Dynasty was still sacred and inviolable, and was the saint who owned the country.

Especially today, after hearing Liu Xie's words of "attacking the enemy's plan", I was even more amazed and no longer thought that Liu Xie was an ordinary person.

In fact, it wasn’t just the officers who were surprised.
Even Dong Zhuo was a little surprised. He didn't know why Liu Xie knew the situation in Guandong at that time and could quickly judge who could be won over and who could be used.

After thinking carefully for several times, Dong Min found that there was no room for refutation of Liu Xie, so he sat down again and lowered his head to think.

At this moment, Liu Xie looked at Jia Xu, forcing him to stand up and speak with his eyes.

Jia Xu wanted to pretend he didn't see it...

But when he thought about how Liu Xie had saved himself and his mother in his home a few days ago, he could only sigh softly and attend the remonstrance.

"Your Majesty's strategy is indeed feasible."

“Hebei, in particular, is not difficult.”

"Jizhou was originally seized by Yuan Shao from Han Fu. It is not legitimate, and the court can dispose of it at will."

"The court only needs to issue an edict to appoint Gongsun Zan as the governor of Jizhou, and then it will naturally be able to drive the tiger to devour the wolf, allowing Gongsun Zan to occupy the righteous position in attacking Yuan Shao!"

Jia Xu is really... He either doesn't speak, or as soon as he opens his mouth he has a vicious plan.

The big promise of "Mr. Jizhou" certainly could not make Gongsun Zan loyal to the court from then on and work for the Han Dynasty.

But as long as the imperial court issued the decree to appoint Gongsun Zan as the governor of Jizhou, it would be giving Gongsun Zan the sharpest sword to attack Yuan Shao!

Since ancient times, when an army goes to war, the most important thing is to have a legitimate reason.

Now that the imperial court has given the "name" to Gongsun Zan, it is the biggest benefit to Gongsun Zan, and also the biggest weakening to Yuan Shao.

Even if Gongsun Zan was scared and didn't dare to attack at this time, it would still disgust Yuan Shao, and maybe even make the Hebei nobles and generals under Han Fu's command complain about Yuan Shao, and divide Yuan Shao's internal power. It can be said that it was open and aboveboard, but also sinister!

"Okay, let's do it."

Anyway, with the power of the imperial court at that time, the piece of fat meat of Jizhou could not be taken back no matter what. In this case, it would be better to throw the meat out and lure the two hungry wolves to bite it.

"Besides, there is Yuan Shu..."

The situation in Hebei is easy to handle, but the conflict between Yuan Shu and Liu Biao is difficult to provoke.

The main reason was that Jia Xu was not familiar with Liu Biao, and didn't know whether Liu Biao was an enterprising person or a conservative person.

If Liu Biao was an enterprising person like Gongsun Zan, then even if the imperial court did not take any action, Liu Biao might have used the monkey stealing peach trick on Yuan Shu and taken over Nanyang, the northern gateway of Jingzhou.

But if he is a person who likes to maintain the status quo, it will be difficult to deal with.

However, Jia Xu guessed that since Liu Biao had the courage to perform such a feat as "riding alone into Jingzhou", he must be a very daring person, not someone who would be content to defend his own territory.

Therefore, just like giving Gongsun Zan a sword to conquer Yuan Shao, the court also wanted to give Liu Biao a weapon to deal with Yuan Shu. As for this weapon, Jia Xu actually had an idea in mind.

But even Jia Xu, after repeated consideration, felt that his plan was a little too bold, and was afraid that the emperor and the prime minister would not accept it, so he was unwilling to adopt it.

When Liu Xie saw Jia Xu's miserable expression as if he wanted to defecate but couldn't, he knew what kind of struggle Jia Xu was going through in his heart.

"Wenhe, just speak up. Now is the time to gather ideas and gather everyone's wisdom. If you have anything to say, just speak up!"

Temple calculation is the time to speak freely and make plans.

If you don't express your strategies and opinions now, do you have to wait until you fail?
Therefore, even though Dong Min's attitude just now was a little arrogant and slightly disrespectful to the emperor, Liu Xie still did not get angry, but analyzed the situation rationally.

Besides, no matter how vicious Jia Xu's plan was, could it be more vicious than the plan of "counterattack Chang'an"?
Jia Xu carefully glanced at his colleagues around him, then quietly hid himself a little closer to Lu Bu.

"Your Majesty... may you issue an imperial decree to condemn the Yuan family of Runan as traitors to the Han Dynasty!"

?

what are you saying?
Even though Liu Xie was prepared, he was still dumbfounded at this moment.

Not to mention others like Dong Min, Lu Bu and others.

After a moment, Dong Min was the first to react. He let out a strange cry, rushed to Jia Xu and wanted to beat him.

"Evil words to confuse the people! Evil words to confuse the people!"

Denounce the Yuan family of Runan as traitors to the Han Dynasty?
Don’t you know that he comes from a family of three high officials for four generations?

Don’t you know that his students and former officials are all over the world?
You don't know him... Never mind! Anyway, Dong Min only has one thought at the moment, which is to kill Jia Xu!
Jia Xu is smart.

Seeing Dong Min running over, Jia Xu trotted behind Lu Bu and gently pushed him.

Lu Bu suddenly woke up from his dream. Seeing Dong Min looking like he wanted to eat him, he immediately stood up and shouted at him: "General Zuo! This is the inner court! In front of the emperor! What do you want to do?"

Dong Min is not short and his figure can be described as sturdy.

But when Lu Bu stood in front of him, he seemed like a dwarf compared to a giant.

Lu Bu wore a large crown with double pheasant tails on his head, and his thin tiger-patterned robe was stretched tight by his mountain-like physique. In terms of dimensions, he was more than a circle larger than Dong Min.
After a moment of trance, Dong Zhuo also noticed the scene in the hall, so he knocked his tablet heavily on the table: "Shuying! What do you want to do!"

Dong Min was hindered by Lu Bu's greatness in front and afraid of Dong Zhuo's majesty in the back. In the end, he could only beat his feet and stamp his chest in anger.

"Brother! Listen to me, what kind of bad idea is this?"

"To denounce the Yuan family of Runan as traitors to the Han Dynasty is not to force scholars all over the world to rebel?"

"Such a plan must have bad intentions and is intended to destroy our foundation. It is better to kill this beast directly to prevent him from spreading lies and misleading the people!"

Dong Min, like Dong Zhuo before him, highly respected scholars.

Even after the coalition forces of the Guandong princes attacked Dong, Dong Min always had some illusions about the gentry, hoping that the two sides could reconcile and return to the political ecology of the Later Han Dynasty.

But now, Jia Xu actually wants to declare the Yuan family of Runan as traitors to the Han Dynasty?
Wouldn't that put the imperial court directly in opposition to the scholars of the world? Wouldn't that turn all the scholars of the world into enemies of Dong Zhuo?
Therefore, Jia Xu deserves to be killed!

But Dong Zhuo asked, "Does Shuying think that I am no longer an enemy of the scholars of the world?"
