Han Dao world

Yuan Tan came over and bowed his hands in salute. "Master Sun Gong, the medicine is ill in the house, why don't you... sit outside?"

Sun Rui shook his hand. "It's okay. Father... How long has it been like this? Have you invited a doctor for treatment?"

"Please, the emperor even sent an imperial physician." Yuan Tan sighed, "I have used a lot of medicine, but there is no improvement. Liu Jingzhou came two days ago, and he didn't agree with each other. He got angry and became more ill. gone."

Shi Sun Rui frowned.

In order to assassinate Dong, he and Wang Yun were very close for a period of time. He often heard Wang Yun talk about the experience of Yuan Shao, Liu Biao and others working together in He Jin's General's Mansion, and he knew how these people were "harmonious but different" of.

When Liu Biao came to see Yuan Shao, the scene must have been "harmonious", and it was no surprise that Yuan Shao was so angry.

But he didn't feel that Yuan Shao was wronged.

Even if he didn't know all the things Yuan Shao had done, he had heard about them.

Now the most tormenting Yuan Shao is definitely not what Liu Biao said, but the guilt and fear in his heart.

If he is guilty.

"Everyone is born with heaven and earth. Being so seriously ill, it's best to go back to your hometown to recuperate. I'm afraid there will be no peace here." Shi Sunrui looked at Yuan Shao and said unhurriedly, as if to persuade Yuan Shao, It was like ordering Yuan Tan. "Maybe when I go back to the countryside, the water and soil are subdued, and my body will be fine."

Yuan Tan repeatedly nodded in agreement, but the embarrassment on his face became stronger.

The scholar Sun Rui knew it well.

Needless to say, Yuan Tan would not have dared to leave Luoyang and return to Ruyang without the emperor's nod.

Besides, Yuan Shu had expelled Yuan Shao from the sect, even if Yuan Shao returned to Ruyang, he would have no place to stand.

"You pack your bags, I'm going to ask the emperor for mercy."

Yuan Tan was very grateful and nodded his thanks again and again.

"What are your own plans?"

Yuan Tan shook his head.

He has nowhere to go.Sanqi couldn't be selected, and he didn't want to take the martial arts exam. He wanted to recruit trilogy and march westward on his own, but he couldn't get the support of Guo Tu, Xun Chen and others.He couldn't think of anything else to do besides sending Yuan Shao home, caring for his retirement, and guarding his grave as a filial piety.

Shi Sun Rui turned his head to look at Yuan Shao with his eyes still closed. "After sending your father back to his hometown, you can come back. I will follow the emperor to conquer Jizhou. You have been in Jizhou for many years and are familiar with geography. It will be helpful."

Surprised and delighted, Yuan Tan bowed down.

"Thank you, Master Sun."

"The front car overturns, and the rear car stops. You must not repeat the mistakes of our generation." Shi Sunrui stood up. "A gentleman should be cautious about his independence, and examine himself three times that day. There is still some time before the big battle, you should reflect on your gains and losses, and correct your mistakes."

He turned his head, looked at Yuan Shao, whose face was flushed, and said lightly: "People are not sages, who can do without faults? There is nothing good that can be corrected. The biggest mistake is to be obsessed with obsession and make mistakes again and again. Even after a hundred years The year is hard to escape the derogation of the spring and autumn, how long can we hide?"

Chapter 830

Yuan Tan burst into tears, and sent Shi Sun Rui out the door. Seeing Shi Sun Rui get on his horse and gallop away under the guard of several knights, he was envious and ashamed at the same time.

The scholar Sun Rui is nearly half a century old, and he can still gallop on horseback.

In contrast, he was just young and strong, but he couldn't be so heroic.

He has no doubt that if he and Shi Sun Ruifang are right, he must be the loser.

Back in the courtyard, Xun Chen flashed out from the side.

"how?"

General Yuan Tan Sun Rui repeated what he said just now.

After hearing this, Xun Chen breathed a sigh of relief, clapped his hands and smiled, "With his words, this matter can finally be resolved."

Yuan Tan was a little hesitant.

Mr. Sun Rui has soldiers in his hands, and the emperor is looking forward to the next Taiwei candidate, and his words must have more weight than his aunt, Mrs. Yuan.If there is no accident, the emperor will give him this face.

But Shi Sunrui is not without demands.It is Shi Sun Rui's request to write a letter to plead guilty.

This apology is not for himself, but for Yuan Shao.It's just that Yuan Shao was seriously ill and couldn't see him, and he couldn't write the pen himself, so he could only write the letter on behalf of his father.

Seeing Yuan Tan's gloomy expression, Xun Chen asked puzzledly, "What are you worried about?"

"I'm afraid it's not what my father wants."

Xun Chen smiled, raised his hand, and waved it lightly. "Your father is seriously ill and can't speak for himself. If you are worried, go and ask your aunt what she means."

Yuan Tan blinked.

Yuan Shao's illness was indeed very serious, but not to the point where he could not speak.He could clearly hear what Shi Sun Rui said just now, but he had no response and could only pretend he didn't hear it.When he goes in later, Yuan Shao will definitely ask.

But Xun Chen asked him to ask his aunt Mrs. Yuan directly, apparently treating Yuan Shao as a dead person.

is this okay?

Yuan Tan still hesitated, but Xun Chen didn't want to say anything, and pushed Yuan Tan away directly.

Yuan Tan had no choice but to go out to the small courtyard where Mrs. Yuan lived.

Xun Chen entered the atrium and came to Yuan Shao's sickbed, Guo Tu had already arrived.

Yuan Shao also woke up, his face was flushed, even his eyes were red, and he was panting like a cow.

Guo Tu looked at him with pity.

Seeing Xun Chen coming in, Yuan Shao forced himself to sit up, opened his mouth to speak, but was pushed back by Guo Tu, and thoughtfully tucked in the quilt.

"At the beginning, the most important thing is to recover from illness with peace of mind. You Ruo, let's go out and talk."

Xun Chen immediately retracted the foot he had just stepped into the door, said yes, and went out with Guo Tu.

Yuan Shao's angry roar came from behind, but Guo Tu and Xun Chen turned a deaf ear to it.Two maids hurried in to serve Yuan Shao.

Feng Ji also rushed over, seeing the scene, he immediately stopped and stayed in front of Guo Tu.

Guo Tu briefly talked about Sun Rui's visit to Yuan Shao, and finally said: "You Ruo, Yuan Tu, this may be the last chance, don't miss it."

Feng Ji and Xun Chen nodded in unison.

Yuan Shao's days are numbered, he can no longer be allowed to mess around, not only ruining Yuan Tan, but also ruining their family.

"This apology...how should I write it?" Xun Chen tentatively asked.

The scholar Sun Rui asked Yuan Tan to write the letter on behalf of his father, but it was impossible for Yuan Tan to write the letter himself, and this matter would eventually fall on their shoulders.

Guo Tu sighed: "It's a pity that Chen Kongzhang is not here, otherwise he is the most suitable candidate. Well, I will write it. Anyway, I am old and I should go back to my hometown. I don't want this old face."

Xun Chen and Feng Ji smiled knowingly as if they were relieved.

-

Sun Rui rushed to the imperial camp and reported to Liu Xie how he had met Yuan Shao.

He was holding a document in his hand, which was Yuan Shao's pleading letter that Yuan Tan asked him to hand over.

This apology was written very profoundly and comprehensively, from the time when Yuan Shao became famous as a young man, until Yuan Shao was captured, and the present reflection, thousands of words are eloquently written.

These days, the articles are concise, and a book is only tens of thousands of words.

To put it harshly, the level of detail in this apology can be regarded as Yuan Shao's biography.

Of course, Yuan Shao refused to take it as a biography even if he was beaten to death.

From the point of view of this article, Yuan Shao is simply a born hypocrite. He has been accustomed to deception since he was a child, seeking fame and duplicity. He is a model of hypocrisy among celebrities in the late Han Dynasty.

Although there is no word of betrayal in this plea, it is full of deeds of betrayal everywhere.

Betrayed the family, betrayed the court, betrayed Confucianism.

The contemporary Wang Mang is undoubtedly.

Liu Xie read it three times, and finally put it on the table lightly, sighing.

"When a bird is about to die, its song is mournful. When a man is about to die, his words are kind. Although Yuan Shao is confused, this courage of self-reflection is really moving."

With a sullen face, Shi Sunrui nodded solemnly in agreement.

How could he fail to hear the meaning of the emperor's ridicule.

With the intelligence of the Son of Heaven, he naturally knew that this was not Yuan Shao's original intention - if Yuan Shao was willing to admit his mistake, he would have admitted it a long time ago, why the stalemate has persisted until now - but he is willing to accept this plea.

No matter what Yuan Shao thought, the people around Yuan Shao had completely surrendered.

Including Madam Yuan.

Without Mrs. Yuan's acquiescence, Yuan Tan would not have dared to make this apology.

Liu Xie tapped the table with his finger.After a while, he raised his head, looked at Shi Sun Rui, and smiled slightly. "I have an idea. I don't know if it is feasible or not. I would like to ask Mr. Sun for advice."

Shi Sunrui's heart tightened, and he bowed and said, "How dare I, please speak frankly, Your Majesty."

"This is a good article, which should be handed down to future generations. Therefore, I plan to print it to the world first, so that everyone in the world will know the meaning of introspection at the beginning."

Shi Sun Rui's expression changed immediately.

He knew that the emperor would not let Yuan Shao go easily, but he never thought that the emperor would come up with such an idea.

This is to leave Yuan Shao with a bad name for thousands of years.

"Don't you think it's appropriate?" Liu Xie said, inadvertently glanced at the Shangshu who was writing urgently.

Shi Sunrui felt a toothache.

Regardless of whether he agrees or not, since this article has been in the hands of the emperor, it is impossible to take it back.Even if it is taken back, there will be a record in the "Daily Notes".

"It's...suitable." Shi Sun Rui almost squeezed out two words between his teeth.

If sacrificing Yuan Shao alone can save the Yuan Tan brothers, Guo Tu, Xun Chen and others, it must be worthwhile.Apart from Yuan Shao, no one would object.

As for Yuan Shao himself, it is no longer important.

"Where is he going back?"

"Of course I'm going back to Ruyang, but..."

"Yuan Gonglu disagrees?"

"It's possible." Shi Sunrui looked at Liu Xie with complicated eyes.

The so-called disapproval of Yuan Shu is actually the disapproval of the emperor.That fierce ghost Yuan Shu is just a puppet in the hands of the emperor.As long as the emperor issued an edict, he would certainly do so.

"Let me persuade you, it may be useful." Liu Xie sighed: "The Yuan family is such a big clan, it is inevitable that there will be a few unfilial descendants. It is not terrible to make mistakes, it is good to be able to correct them, even if it is a negative for future generations. Typical is worth it."

The more Sun Rui listened, the more disturbed he became.

Hearing what the Son of Heaven meant, this apology is not the end, but just the beginning.

"Your Majesty..." Shi Sun Rui looked at Liu Xie almost beggingly. "After all, the Yuan family in Runan is a famous family of four generations and three lords. The sages of the past generations have been loyal and dedicated to the great man. Yuan became the court, and he spared his life to fight against Liang Yi. He had to treat him differently, so that people in the world know the kindness of the court. The responsibility for tens of thousands of crimes can be limited to Yuan Shao alone, and it is not appropriate to implicate the clan."

Liu Xie nodded. "That's right, it's true that Yuan Shao shouldn't succeed Yuan Cheng, it's better to choose someone else..."

Shi Sunrui was taken aback, and quickly said: "Your Majesty, the Yuan family has been wiped out, and there are not many people left. Although Yuan Shao is not good enough, Yuan Tan is still considered a man. Let him inherit Yuan Cheng's family."

Liu Xie smiled. "That's it?"

"That's it, that's it." Shi Sunrui wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, not daring to say another word.

Chapter 831

The lesser of two evils.

Between the annihilation of the entire army and the infamy of Yuan Shao alone, Shi Sunrui chose to let Yuan Shao bear all the responsibilities.

As the chief culprit, Yuan Shao could hardly absolve himself of the blame.

Everyone knows this.

Taking advantage of the emperor's good mood, Shi Sunrui tactfully asked Yuan Tan to fight with him. The reason was that Yuan Tan had led his troops in Jizhou and was familiar with the terrain.

Liu Xie readily agreed, and at the same time expressed his regret for Yuan Tan.

Originally thought that he could be selected as a casual rider, but unfortunately he was not selected.

Sun Rui was very helpless.This face was slapped and cracked.

After talking for a while, Shi Sun Rui left.

Liu Xie sat alone in the tent, sizing up the apology on the case, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Compared to chopping off Yuan Shao's head and hanging it in Beique for public display, this apology is more lethal.
