Three Kingdoms: My father-in-law is Lu Bu

Chapter 159

Yuan Yao and two Wuhuan guards rushed all the way back to Shouchun, the horses were foaming at the mouth.

The three knights rushed into Shouchun City like meteors. The soldiers guarding the city recognized His Royal Highness and did not dare to stop them, allowing them to rush all the way to the palace.

"Where is my father, father? Hurry up, I have something urgent to tell him." Yuan Yao stopped the attendants in the palace and asked urgently.

The attendant knew that Yuan Shu was having fun in the harem, so he lowered his head and pointed in the direction of the harem.

"Father! Something happened, Han Dang is about to kill Shouchun!" Yuan Yao didn't care what Yuan Shu was doing in the harem, found the door and hurriedly rushed in.

Yuan Shu's disheveled clothes and several concubines were having fun and drinking, when he suddenly saw Yuan Yao walking in, he couldn't help standing up and holding him.

"Yao'er? My good son, you're back! Come on, come on, have a drink with me before we talk." Yuan Shu, eyes blurred with drunkenness, pulled Yuan Yao and was about to sit back at the table.

Yuan Yao had just narrowly escaped death, and when he saw Yuan Shu's appearance, his heart was filled with anger, and he couldn't help throwing the jug on the ground, making a crisp sound.

"Father! My son returned from the East China Sea. He was intercepted and killed by Han Dang's men dozens of miles away. He almost couldn't come back!"

Yuan Shu was so frightened by Yuan Yao, and finally came to his senses, took Yuan Yao's hand to check, and said angrily: "It's Jiangdong's thief again, it's really hateful. Fortunately, my son Hong Fuqi Tian returned safely."

Yuan Yao's eyes turned red when he thought of the dozens of guards who fell behind to protect him.

"Father, only two of my son's fifty guards came back. We must avenge this revenge!"

Yuan Shu was also harassed by the Jiangdong army, so he ordered Han Yin and others to discuss in a hurry.

"Everyone, my son was intercepted and killed by Han Dang on the way back, which means that Jiangdong Army has already arrived in Liyang City. Tell me, what should we do now?"

Yuan Shu sat on the top seat, showing a rare majesty.

Han Yin was the prime minister, and Yuan Yao's son was the one who changed defense. Under the urging eyes of everyone, he stepped out bravely.

"My lord, the Jiangdong army has come from afar. I think they want to blackmail our army for property. Why don't we send envoys to negotiate and ask them to exchange Liyang and return to Jiangdong?"

Han Yin's words were approved by most people, who nodded secretly.

However, Yuan Yao was on the side, looked at Han Yin with some annoyance, and said, "My lord, the thief Han intercepted and killed me halfway, which means that my whereabouts have been leaked. You signed this order to change defense. Could it be that you and the Jiangdong army are having trouble with each other?" Things?"

Han Yin was sweating all over his head immediately, he plopped down on his knees and shouted: "My lord, I am wronged. My subordinates have worked hard for many years and never dared to let go. I have never thought of collaborating with the enemy. My lord, you have to believe me ah."

Seeing Han Yin crying, Yuan Shu couldn't help shouting, "Enough!"

Han Yin quickly stopped begging for mercy, looked at Yuan Shu and his son timidly, got up and stood aside, not daring to continue talking.

"Yao'er, the prime minister has followed me for so many years, I believe he will not betray me, you should apologize to the prime minister, and pay attention to what you say in the future." Yuan Shu felt that there was a shortage of manpower under his command, so he asked Yuan Yao to come out and apologize to Han Yin. Let's keep calm.

Yuan Yao's face was stiff, he touched his face and looked at Han Yin.

Han Yin quickly held up his hands and said: "My lord, what your highness said was only for the interests of our country. There is no need to apologize. As long as your lord trusts me, my subordinates will already be filled with gratitude."

Seeing that Han Yin was so knowledgeable, Yuan Shu exposed this little episode and stopped talking about it.

"Well, the people from Jiangdong are in Liyang County. No matter how we deal with them, I feel like they are stuck in my throat. Prime Minister, please tell me the reasons why you want peace talks."

Han Yin straightened his mind and returned to his usual radiant look.

"My lord, our army is currently fighting Cao Jun and Ye Xiao Jun. Although Ye Xiao Jun is currently stationed at Lingbi, it is undeniable that we are restrained by more than one-third of our strength."

Yuan Shu couldn't help but nod at Han Yin's honest words. More than 1 regular troops and [-] volunteers were deployed in Jiujiang to guard against Ye Xiao's attack.

"Cao Jun's 5 troops have surrounded Runan. Maybe we will continue to send troops to support. My lord, I am only thinking about the stability of Shouchun. If you want to repel Cao Jun, [-] generals alone are not enough. of."

Yuan Shu couldn't help asking: "Could it be possible to send the Shouchun garrison to support Runan? Then how to deal with the safety of Shouchun City?"

Han Yin smiled awkwardly, he naturally thought of this too.

"My lord, it is precisely because our troops are being restrained too much. General Li Feng went to Liyang County with 1 people and there is no news yet. It shows that the situation of the battle is not optimistic. That's why I suggest that the three parties should settle the largest one first. Let's talk about the threat."

Yuan Shu's expression froze, and he finally recognized the facts. If Li Feng had the ability to resist Jiangdong's army, Han Dang would not have to lead people to kill and ambush near Shouchun.

But now Yuan Shu has only 3 regular soldiers in Shouchun City, under the direct command of Yuan Huan, and the remaining [-] volunteers are just bandits who surrendered, and their combat power is almost used to fill their heads.

Han Yin put the reality in front of everyone, and Yuan Yao, who just wanted to send troops to attack Han Dang, temporarily suppressed his anger and calmed down.

"Father, the Jiangdong Army is really hateful. Now Ye Xiaojun is still stationed in Lingbi, why don't we make peace with him and deal with Cao Jun and Jiangdong first?" Xiao Jun can still seek revenge from Jiangdong Army.

Before Yuan Shu could speak, Han Yin once again held up his hands and persuaded him earnestly.

"Your Highness, after the founding of our country, our army has regarded Ye Xiaojun as its biggest enemy, and has even announced to the world that he will fight to the death. If we make peace now, what will the people of the world think? And our military morale will be affected!"

Yuan Shu was convinced by Han Yin's words and nodded: "What the Prime Minister said is true. The traitor Ye Xiao is the great hatred of our army and we cannot make peace. As for sending an envoy to Liyang to make peace with Jiangdong, does the Prime Minister have someone to choose?"

Naturally, Han Yin did not dare to nod and agree to go by himself. At this time, the attitudes of both parties were unclear. Wouldn't it be that he had thrown himself into the tiger's mouth in the past?

"My lord, I suggest that Chen Zheng be sent as an envoy. Chen Taishi is loyal and courageous to donate countless wealth to the lord. I don't think he will refuse."

Taishi Ling named Chen Zheng was an unknown gentry patriarch in the Huainan area. He donated a lot of money to Yuan Shu before he entered Yuan Shu's palace. Unexpectedly, his first mission was to go to Jiangdong.

"My lord, I know that I am not capable enough, so I am afraid that I will miss the prime minister's important business." Chen Zheng came out and said in fear.

Yuan Shu doesn't care so much, since Han Yin has pointed you out, who else will you go to?
"Chen Qing, I'm just going to Liyang County as an envoy, and the journey is not far away. Take our sincerity with you. I don't think Han Dang will make things difficult for you."

Yuan Shu's words determined that Chen Zheng would be the chief envoy for the peace talks, and everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
