In Yanmen County, the night gently covered this ancient city. The lights in the commander's mansion were bright, reflecting faces full of expectation.

Liu Yao, Zhang Liao, Ju Shou and other important civil and military officials all sat around the stone table in the courtyard. The atmosphere was filled with subtle emotions of tension and excitement, as if even the air was leaping with the joy that was about to come.

Liu Yao stood tall, but he could not hide the trace of worry and uncontrollable excitement in his eyes. His eyes occasionally penetrated the closed door, where the miracle of life was quietly brewing.

The busy figures of the midwives shuttled in and out of the threshold. Basins of hot water and clean towels were lightly brought in and out by them, and every time they went in and out, they seemed to carry the breath of hope.

Tian Feng kept comforting him:

Hehe, my lord, relax. The midwives are experienced and have said that everything is fine, so there is no need to worry too much. "

However, Liu Yao still couldn't suppress his inner anxiety. He began to pace slowly in the yard, with a little unnoticeable panic in his steps

"Hey, I know all these reasons, but I don't know why I am still a little nervous. "

Cai Yong, Wang Yun and others stood at the door, waiting quietly.

Zhao Yun leaned against the pillar, looking at everyone with a clear look in his eyes.

In a moment, the most touching sound came from the room - the baby's crisp and loud cry, like the rising sun, instantly dispelling all the haze and anxiety around.

Cai Yong was the closest, and he was the first to enter the room.

As a father, his heartstrings were tightly pulled by the cry, and he almost instinctively took a step and became the first figure to step into the door. Although his steps were fast, he was steady, and every step carried endless care and concern for his daughter.

Then, the midwife walked out of the room with a smile on her face, her voice full of awe and joy, and respectfully announced to everyone: "General Liu, great news! Both mother and child are safe!

Liu Yao heard this and laughed like a bell, his joy was beyond words.

"Hahahaha! Good! Good! Reward! A big reward! You all go down and claim the reward money!"

As he finished speaking, the midwives around him smiled with satisfaction, knelt down and saluted, congratulated him, and then left the general's residence, which was full of joy.

Before Liu Yao could say much, he hurriedly followed the crowd and stepped into the inner room. His eyes fell on Cai Yan at the first moment.

He walked slowly to the bedside, his eyes were gentle as water, and he looked at Cai Yan carefully. Although Cai Yan was exhausted and her face was slightly pale, her eyes were shining with the tenderness and expectation of a new mother, as if they could illuminate all the haze in the world.

"Madam, how are you?"

Liu Yao first walked to Cai Yan's bed to check on her physical condition.

Cai Yan smiled slightly, and that smile was filled with endless tenderness and satisfaction.

"Don't worry, my husband, I'm fine. The midwife said it's a strong boy. I miss him so much. Can I see him?"

Everyone hurriedly held the newborn baby in front of Cai Yan's eyes, as if they were holding a rare treasure. The room was suddenly filled with a warm and solemn atmosphere.

After all, this is their future young master.

Tian Feng stood on one side, his eyes gently fell on the baby's tender face, a gratified smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he slowly said: "Looking at this child's eyebrows, especially the clear and bright eyes, he is 80% similar to you, my lord. It's really a match made in heaven, and we are destined to be together."

Liu Yao nodded gently, his eyes flashing with the tenderness of a new father and infinite longing for the future. He looked around, felt the expectant eyes of the crowd, and a surge of lofty ambition surged in his heart. He said in a deep voice:

"It is a great pity that this child has not been given a name yet. Today, I will give him the name - Liu Xian. Xian means the model of law and the standard of measure, which means that he will be able to uphold justice and abide by the law in the future. As my eldest son, he will definitely shoulder the heavy responsibility of the Han Dynasty and inherit this vast foundation!"

"What a good name! What a good meaning!"

Just when everyone in Bingzhou was celebrating Liu Yao's birth of a son.

Yuan Shao, who was far away in Jizhou, was in a dilemma at this time.

Now that Gongsun Zan was dead, Youzhou had completely fallen.

In Yuan Shao's shogunate, the wise men had different opinions, and a fierce debate about the future of Youzhou quietly unfolded.

One faction advocated abandoning Youzhou, and the other advocated occupying Youzhou throughout the territory.

Xu You spoke first and said, "My Lord, although half of Youzhou has been occupied, the situation is very delicate and serious. Liu Yao and Gongsun Zan were brothers in the past, but now that Gongsun is gone, Liu Yao's heart must be like a raging fire, difficult to calm down. If our army rashly takes over Youzhou, it would be like handing over a declaration of war to Liu Yao, and the war will surely begin."Reignite, sweeping over."

"On the contrary, if the lord can be far-sighted and take the initiative to give in, and temporarily give the land of Youzhou to Liu Yao as a favor, this move can not only avoid his edge, but also show the lord's magnanimity."

"First, we can ease the relationship with him. Secondly, when Liu Yao takes over Youzhou, the lord can take the opportunity to annex Qingzhou! After mastering Qingzhou, when the lord has enough strength, he can go south to attack Yanzhou!"

"As long as Yanzhou is in hand, we will have three states. At that time, we can compete with Liu Yao!"

"By that time, we can attack Bingzhou if we advance, and directly take Xuzhou if we retreat. Although Liu Yao is very powerful, his territory has always been on the border. If we can suppress him all the time and prevent him from moving forward! Who in the world can stop our edge! ? "

After hearing Xu You's words, Yuan Shao's eyes suddenly lit up.

He finally made up his mind.

With the current strength of both sides, even if he took Youzhou, he would not be Liu Yao's opponent.

Liu Yao now holds Bingzhou and Yongzhou, and relies on the grassland behind him. Youzhou cannot be defended by himself, and his family background is still too weak.

It is better to be generous and take the initiative to give it to Liu Yao, take Qingzhou by himself, and then integrate it as soon as possible to plot against Cao Cao's Yanzhou. At that time, for the sake of safety, he will take Xuzhou.

In this way, he can meet Yuan Shu. At that time, if the war in the north does not go well, then he will attack Yangzhou and Jingzhou together. At that time, he will have fought for most of the world, and then he will be able to defeat Liu Yao with a completely crushing attitude.

By that time, the supreme position in the world will be him!

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao's heart began to get more and more excited,

He immediately waved his hand.

"Okay! Then follow this plan!"

"Tomorrow, I will personally write a letter and present it to Liu Yao!"

"Yes!"
