Three Kingdoms King of the North

"General Liu is too worried." The judge stepped forward to help Liu Xun, and said to him with a smile: "Madam asked you to return to Yuan Tan temporarily, not because she wanted to harm you, but because she wanted you to be an informer. You can report Yuan Tan's plots and plans to his wife or this official. When the eldest son is eliminated, you will naturally have to give credit."

Seeing that Liu Xun was still hesitant, the judge added: "Don't worry, no one will know that you came here to inform the prefect. The eldest son must still regard you as one of his own at this moment."

The judge was not clear. The reason why Liu Xun stood still was because he had not received any promise from Yuan Shang or Mrs. Liu. Based on the few words of the judge, he would never dare to risk his life easily.Fortunately, Yuan Shang is not too stupid, guessing what Liu Xun was thinking, he smiled and said to him: "General Liu, if you are willing to return to my elder brother and be the eyes and ears of the prefect. After the matter is completed, the prefect will definitely not Will be stingy with your rewards."

Seeing that Yuan Shang had spoken, Liu Xun knew that the other party had accepted his offer, so he quickly cupped his hands and saluted, "Liu Xun is willing to serve the eunuch!"

Yuan Shang was not in a hurry to let Liu Xun go back, but discussed with the judge: "Zhengnan, according to the opinion of the prefect, the Youzhou army will not go south in the short term, so we might as well call Gao Yuancai back and work together to get rid of Yuan. Empress Tan, it's not too late to turn around and deal with Gongsun Zan's army."

"Mr. Zhengnan, Shang'er's words are reasonable." As soon as Yuan Shang finished speaking, Mrs. Liu chimed in and said, "Instead of just sitting back and watching to make things bigger, it's better to call Yuan Cai back first, and let him and Shang'er stabilize Nanpi's situation." Let's talk about the situation."

After studying the countermeasures, Yuan Shang first sent people to Zhangwu, and recruited high-ranking cadres to lead his troops back.Afterwards, he said to Liu Xun, "General Liu, return to my elder brother quickly, and if there is any disturbance, you should come and report it immediately."

"Your subordinates obey!" After Liu Xun finished speaking, he quietly exited the meeting room.

Yuan Shang, Shen Pei and others have already worked out a plan on how to eradicate Yuan Tan, but in Guo Tu's mansion, everyone is still arguing about how to force Yuan Shang to step down.Yuan Tan's head hurt from everyone's quarrel, he quickly raised his hands and said loudly: "Everyone, everyone, be quiet, please be quiet!"

After the calm in the hall was restored, he said, "If it was possible to directly lead troops into the prefect's mansion, seize Xianfu's military power, and put him under house arrest, then I would have done so long ago. Have you considered it? What if my mother came forward to stop the soldiers from besieging the Taishou's mansion, what should we do? Are you planning to give me a reputation of disloyalty and filial piety?"

Yuan Tan's words made everyone wake up.It was only then that everyone realized that although Yuan Tan was adopted by Yuan Shao to his elder brother Yuan Ji, Mrs. Liu was still the biological mother of the eldest son Yuan Tan.If Mrs. Liu came out to stop him when he led troops to seize power, the eldest son might really be caught in a dilemma.

When the hall fell into silence, Liu Xun, who had just returned from the prefect's mansion, tiptoed into the hall, returned to the place he had just sat down.The person sitting next to him just glanced at Liu Xun with a strange look, thinking that it took him so long to go to the toilet, it took almost half an hour.

Liu Xun saw that his return did not arouse everyone's suspicion, so he asked the people next to him in a low voice: "I wonder if we have discussed how to seize the power of the prefect?"

The official who was questioned shook his head and said to Liu Xun in a low voice: "No, they are arguing about this matter. They have been arguing for more than half an hour, but there is no result at all, and it hurts my head. "

Knowing that Yuan Tan, Guo Tu and others hadn't formulated a plan to deal with Yuan Shang, Liu Xun couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.He thought in his mind: From now on, I have to keep in touch with them, so that I can keep abreast of their latest action plan, and then I can quickly report to the prefect.If my information can be of great use, presumably the eunuch will definitely reward me generously. In addition to gold, pearls and beautiful jade, it would be best to have a few more stunning beauties, that would be great.

After Yuan Tan and the others were quiet in the hall, he continued: "No matter what, the Liu family is my son's biological mother. No matter what means we use to seize the power in Yuan Shang's hands, we must not hurt her a single hair."

"Please don't worry, Mr. Yuan Tan." As soon as Yuan Tan finished speaking, Xin Pi said on behalf of everyone: "Don't say Mrs. Liu, even Mr. Xiansi, I will not hurt you. We just want to support Mr. Young master, just serve as the prefect of Bohai."

Chapter 332 The Mantis Catches the Cicada Oriole Behind

The envoy sent by Yuan Shang arrived at Zhangwu at dawn.

After reading the letter sent by Yuan Shang, Gao Gan handed it to Guan Tong, the prefect of Donglai, and said casually: "Prefect Guan, please read this letter, and then give me some suggestions."

After Guan Tong read the contents of the letter like a horse on horseback, he couldn't help frowning and said: "I really didn't expect that the eldest son and the second son were captured by the Jizhou army. What is strange is that Jizhou Mu not only did not Kill them, and instead send them escorted back to Nanpi."

"Guan Taishou, tell me," Gao Gan looked at Guan Tong and asked, "Why did Jizhou Mu do this?"

"It's not that simple." Han Zhan's plan to drive away tigers and wolves can't be fooled by discerning people at all, and the senior officials said disdainfully, "Jizhou Mu must know that the current Bohai prefect is my Uncle's youngest son Yuan Shang, that's why he resorted to such a poisonous trick, letting their brothers kill each other."

"General Yuan Cai," Guan Tong waited for the high officials to finish speaking, and asked tentatively, "If the three of them really fought, who would you help?"

"Who are you helping? This general doesn't know." Hearing Guan Tong's question, Gao Gan sneered, "However, based on this general's analysis, since there are so many old troops in Nanpi City, they will definitely Advise Xiansi, let them send someone to contact me, and work with him to defeat Yuan Shang."

Seeing that Gao Gan still did not give himself a satisfactory answer, Guan Tong continued to ask: "General Yuan Cai, if the eldest son also sends someone to contact me, who do you plan to support?"

Gao Gan was silent for a moment, and then said: "If this general has not received the letter sent by Xiansi at noon today, then this general will help Xianfu. Anyway, he is the prefect of Bohai appointed by my uncle." .”

From the words of the senior officials, Guan Tong heard that the other party's original intention was to help Yuan Tan, otherwise how could he have to wait until noon to make a decision.Guan Tong had always had a good impression of Yuan Tan, and seeing that the high-ranking officials were also willing to support Yuan Tan, he didn't ask any further, but accompanied the other party in the conference hall quietly waiting for the arrival of Yuan Tan's envoy.

And Han Zhan, who was far away in Yecheng, counted the date with his fingers, and thought that Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi brothers should have returned to Nanpi, so he ordered people to send Xun Yu, Xun You, Ju Shou, Tian Feng, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei , Xia Houlan and others came to them and said to them: "Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang escorted the Yuan brothers to Bohai County. They must have arrived in Nanpi at this moment. Now that the spring plowing is coming to an end, I want to wait for General Zilong to come back. Sending troops to conquer Qingzhou, I wonder if you have any different opinions?"

As soon as Han Zhan finished speaking, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Xia Houlan and others walked out of the queue and said in unison: "The last general is willing to go to the vanguard, please allow me, my lord."

"Wait a minute, wait a minute!" As soon as the three of them finished speaking, Ju Shou stood up and stopped him: "Now the palace is not yet completed, and we will go to Qingzhou. At that time, a large number of civilian workers will be transferred from the construction site, which will affect the construction progress of the palace. In my opinion, it will not be too late to discuss the dispatch of troops after the completion of the palace and the arrival of Shengjia from Jizhou to Yecheng."

"Ju Supervisor Army," Dian Wei said impatiently after hearing what Ju Shou said: "The construction period of the palace was originally said to be only three months, but now it has been half a year. It is still far away when it will be repaired. If it can’t be repaired, does it mean that there will never be troops?”

"Dian Wei!" Han Zhan heard Dian Wei complaining about Ju Shou, and quickly stopped him, saying, "Ju Supervisor Army is building a palace for Sheng Jia, as long as it can make Sheng Jia live comfortably, not to mention repairing it for half a year, it will be regarded as a palace." One or two years of training is also a matter of course.”

Seeing Han Zhan exporting support for himself, Jushou showed gratitude on his face: "Thank you, my lord, for your understanding. I have little talent and learning. Although I tried my best, I still couldn't complete the project in a short period of time. I am really ashamed."

"My lord, there is one thing I don't understand." Xun You, who was standing by the side, suddenly asked: "Now that Yuan Shao's whereabouts are unknown, Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi should be imprisoned in Yecheng if they don't plan to kill them. How about sending the land back to Bohai County? Although they can compete with Yuan Shang for power and profit, whoever serves as the prefect of Bohai Sea has no effect on us. Why does the lord still work so hard?"

After Han Zhan waited for Xun You to finish speaking, he secretly said that in real history, after Yuan Shao unified the north, he appointed his eldest son Yuan Tan as the governor of Qingzhou, his second son Yuan Xi as the governor of Youzhou, and his nephew Gao Gan as the governor of Bingzhou. , the youngest son Yuan Shang served as governor of Jizhou.

The envoy sent by Yuan Shang arrived at Zhangwu at dawn.

After reading the letter sent by Yuan Shang, Gao Gan handed it to Guan Tong, the prefect of Donglai, and said casually: "Prefect Guan, please read this letter, and then give me some suggestions."
