Can I get to the other side?

Liu Xie didn't feel sleepy anymore when talking about Zhen Mi's entry into the palace.

He had many questions in his mind and wanted to ask Guo Jia for confirmation.

"Is Fengxiao allowing Zhen Mi to enter the palace in order to draw Zhen Mi from Zhongshan to help me?" Liu Xie asked straight to the point.

In ancient times, in-laws in wealthy and aristocratic families were motivated by interests.

He didn't think that Guo Jia came here just to send him a beautiful woman.

Guo Jia nodded and said: "That's true. The Zhen family in Zhongshan is a rich man in Jizhou. If we can win them over, it will be very helpful to His Majesty."

"However, my main purpose this time is actually to drive a wedge between brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang. As for sending Zhen Mi to the palace to win over the Zhen family, it was just a matter of convenience. I hope your majesty will forgive me for making my own decisions."

There is no problem in driving a wedge between brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang.

But to take the decision without authorization and send Zhen Mi to the emperor's harem without even asking the emperor for instructions. This is disrespectful to a minister.

"Hey! Where are the words from Fengxiao!"

Liu Xie waved his hand and said solemnly: "The so-called general is outside, and the emperor's orders are not accepted. You think about me. How can I be that pedantic and stubborn?"

"Just do it with confidence, I believe in you!"

Just kidding, someone was trying to win him over and give him the most beautiful woman in history as his wife. Why was he angry?

Unless he is Mai Shiranui's younger brother and doesn't know what is good or bad.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After receiving Liu Xie's approval, Guo Jia's expression became much more relaxed.

In fact, he has been worried about this matter.

After all, kings, ministers, fathers, sons, and sons are the etiquette that must be adhered to throughout the ages. If you violate it without authorization, you will easily be jealous of the emperor.

Fortunately, the Majesty he is loyal to now is not that pedantic.

After talking about this matter, Liu Xie continued to ask: "But Fengxiao, what should Zhen Mi do if she discovers my dealings and plans with you after she enters the palace?"

"If you want to seek help from Zhongshan Zhen, it is essential to let her know, right? But doing so will also increase the risk of exposure."

This is what Liu Xie is most worried about.

Why can he trust Zhang He, Gao Lan and Guo Jia?

It's because there are relatively detailed records about them in history, and the current time point is just before they were subdued, so he can use his status as emperor and the method of drawing a big pie to bring them under his command.

The most important thing is that they are not attached to any force.

But Zhen Mi is different. First of all, he doesn't understand her, and there are no very detailed records in the history books. Secondly, he was called into the palace, which was not what he wanted. Furthermore, he was born in the Zhen family, and the marriage was just to gain benefits for the Zhen family. Benefit.

And now that he is an emperor with no power, what is there to gain?

On the contrary, telling Yuan Shao after learning about his and Guo Jia's plan would bring greater benefits to the Zhen family behind him.

"Whether Zhen Mi can be trusted or not, I can't tell yet."

Guo Jia gave an ambiguous answer, and then said: "Your Majesty can observe her when she enters the palace."

"If you are not trustworthy, then you should be more cautious in the future; anyway, as long as there is such a relationship, seeking help from Zhen at critical moments in the future will always do more good than harm."

Liu Xie thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand."

Guo Jia stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I will take my leave first."

"Wait!"

Liu Xie pushed Guo Jia back, then poured him another bowl of ginseng soup, and said with a smile: "Here, let's drink this bowl of ginseng soup."

Guo Jia's face instantly stiffened.

Bitter.

…

When there was intrigue over Zhen Mi here in Yecheng.

The situation outside has also undergone great changes.

The reason was that Yuan Shao called on all the princes to unite to fight against the thieves.

Just as Yuan Shao's counselors expected, after the news spread, many doubts about Yuan Shao's disobedience disappeared.

After all, Yuan Shao has openly broken with Yuan Shu and is sending troops to attack him. Who can say that he and Yuan Shu are in the same boat?

After the order to punish the thieves was issued, the 50,000-strong army led by General Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others set out directly from Pei County and headed for Yangzhou.

And Lu Bu also dispatched a total of 30,000 troops to fight against the thieves.

As for Liu Bei, it was much shabby.

Although he recaptured Peixian County, it was really impossible to gather enough troops in a short period of time, so he only recruited more than a thousand troops; then he borrowed another two thousand from Lu Bu, plus the original remaining troops They only managed to gather more than 5,000 people, barely forming an army on their own.

In this way, the three parties temporarily formed an alliance to defeat Yuan Shu.

After all, crusading against rebellious ministers is the greatest political correctness of this era.

Especially a traitor like Yuan Shu who rebelled and proclaimed himself emperor.

Yuan Shao served the emperor, so it was impossible not to send troops to conquer; Liu Bei was a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and whoever rebelled and proclaimed himself emperor would be the enemy; not to mention Lu Bu, Marquis Wen, who was personally named by the emperor, raised troops in the name of supporting the Han Dynasty. , it would be totally unreasonable for him not to take action.

In the face of such righteousness, the conflicts of all parties can be put aside.

Cao Cao, on the other hand, ignored Yuan Shao's call and is currently sending troops to attack Zhang Xiu in Wancheng.

The reason is also very simple.

The Emperor of Xu County issued an edict to Zhang Xiu to send troops to attack Yuan Shu, but he remained stationary, which prompted Cao Cao to send a large army to attack.

Liu Biao in Jingzhou acted even worse. Whether it was Yuan Shao's call or Cao Cao sending troops to attack his vassal Zhang Xiu, he pretended to be deaf and dumb and directly claimed his illness.

But even if Cao Cao and Liu Biao did not join the war, Yuan Shu would not have a good time now.

Because he not only had to face the joint attack of Yuan Shao, Lu Bu, and Liu Bei (this can be ignored), but also had internal worries.

After Sun Ce proclaimed himself emperor, he openly broke with him.

And he occupied the four counties of Jiangdong and watched covetously.

After learning that Yuan Shao had called on all the princes to fight against the enemy, he was the first to send troops, and seized the two counties of Danyang and Lujiang at lightning speed.

Now he has occupied the six major counties of Jiangdong, nearly half of the territory of Yangzhou, and is eyeing Yuan Shu in Shouchun.

So far, the four armies have attacked Yuan Shu together!

It can be said that the whole world is an enemy!

…

Yangzhou, to be precise, should now be called Chengguo.

After Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, he included the entire Yangzhou into the territory of Chengguo, and the capital was in Shou County.

It's just that the outside world does not recognize this at all.

Yuan Shu had heard about the joint attack by various armies. He was so angry that he started cursing on the spot.

"Bastard Yuan Shao! How dare you do this!"

In the palace, Yuan Shu, wearing a dragon robe and a crown, was furious and threw the report in his hand fiercely on the head of a minister below.

Then he roared to the ministers in the hall in a rage: "Pass on my order! Gather the army to fight! I want to destroy all these rebels!"

The angry roar echoed throughout the hall.
