"Let the Son of Heaven be free..."

Qin Chu murmured and repeated, and various images flashed in his mind.From the beginning when Xu You was sent to discuss marriage, to when Yang Biao left Beijing, and now she is confronting Yuan Shu—is Yuan Shao dormant in Jizhou, is he waiting for this day?

Yuan Gonggong was stupid and arrogant, and took away King Chenliu, so he attracted all the attention of the court, but unexpectedly, it happened to pave the way for Yuan Shao.

Xun Yu realized this point faster than her.

The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the prosperity of the world is all for profit. Qin Chu placed the young emperor in Luoyang Deyang Hall. Before he made any oversteps, some people said that she was "imprisoning the young emperor and monopolizing the power". It can be seen that the aristocratic family is Really anxious.

He frowned and remained silent for a moment, then suddenly got up from the couch, exchanged glances with Qin Chu, and gently opened the door.

The guards in front of the door and the messenger were both stunned for a moment, before they could ask any questions, they heard him say: "General Ji Ling, please come."

During the ambush during the day, Ji Ling was shot off the horse by Qin Chu three times, and then locked in the Hori room.

The soldiers saw that although his words were polite, his face was not good-looking, and he knew that he was going to be interrogated, so he clasped his fists and said yes, and trotted to the Hori room.

Xun Yu just sat back and turned his head, only to see Qin Chu was still flipping through the two letters. The broken hair on his forehead blocked most of her expression, making it impossible to see her mood.

After a while, Qin Chu raised his head, gently pushed Guo Jia's scrawled secret letter forward, and said in a low voice:

"The Yangzhai battle must be resolved quickly."

Xun Yu nodded and didn't respond. He just took the letter, read it carefully with lowered eyes, and recorded the message from Luo Yang verbatim in his mind.

After a while, he retracted his gaze and glanced at Qin Chu:

"Yuan Benchu ​​led [-] troops, which is far superior to Luoyang's military, and there is another family in the city who turned against him... Will my lord leave tomorrow?"

"Yes." Qin Chu didn't shy away from him, but just looked calmly at the night outside the window, and nodded, "After today's battle, Yuan Jun's morale was low, and most of them lost, and there was Fengxian Cheng Xiangke in the city as the chief general. However, it is only a matter of time before Yuan Shu is repelled. I plan to lead 2 people back to Luoyang, and first stabilize the situation in the city. Yuan Shao is here for the emperor, and I don’t have many people left in the city, so this matter cannot be delayed.”

Xun Yu knew her when she was young, so he naturally understood her uncompromising character, so he didn't try to persuade her, but just lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said softly:

"The Luoyang family has many rebels, yu..."

"No need." Qin Chu frowned, immediately interrupted his words, then seemed to realize his bluntness, slowed down his tone, and said slowly, "Although Yang Zhai has generals, he must also have advisers. I know that Wen Ruo intends to save the siege, but in the Luoyang family, [-] out of [-] return to Yuan, this matter cannot be accomplished overnight, Wen Ruo should be clearer than me about this."

Xun Yu met her eyes and saw a bit of determination that could not be denied, so he could only sigh softly, but he was not too surprised.

Qin Chu didn't like him being close to some affairs in Luoyang City, especially those related to the Son of Heaven—even if he didn't usually reveal it, he could still see it.

Xun Yu didn't know what she was worried about, and occasionally he could vaguely feel something from her attitude, but he didn't want to think about it, so he could only nod obediently: "I understand."

It's just that although he said "Understood", he was still not at ease in his heart, and wanted to say something to her, when he suddenly heard a "du, du" knock on the silk door outside, so he swallowed the unfinished words Speaking, stood up from the couch, walked over gracefully, and opened the door.

"Government, Ji Ling brought it here."

The soldier arched his hands at him, and politely reported to the study room, but he was quite unscrupulous. With a pull of his right hand, Ji Ling, who hadn't been in the water for a long time, was staggered.

Ji Ling: "..."

On purpose, right?

Although his temper was a bit irritable, he wasn't really short-tempered. He knew the situation he was in right now, so he had no choice but to lower his head obediently, holding back his anger, and followed Xun Yu without saying a word. Into the study.

Qin Chu was dressed in plain dark clothes with a scarlet robe over it. When he saw Ji Ling approaching, he just glanced at him indifferently, raised his chin and nodded on the wooden couch beside him:

"sit."

Ji Ling had suffered the loss of underestimating the enemy today, and also understood her ability, so she didn't dare to say much, and sat down obediently.

Qin Chu raised his eyelids indifferently, and said bluntly, "Who is the military advisor in Yuan Shu's tent?"

Ji Ling was taken aback, and Xin Pi's face immediately popped into her mind. Before she could figure out why she asked this question, she saw Qin Chu move his elbow, seemingly touching the scabbard next to him. The wooden sword The sheath slid with the iron hilt, making a crisp sound.

His teeth ached from this threat, he gave up thinking halfway, closed his eyes, and replied, "George Simpisin."

"Oh," Qin Chu seemed to be taken aback when he heard the name, but quickly calmed down, nodded, and asked again, "When did he go to Jizhou?"

"It's only been two months—" Ji Ling said, suddenly stuck in his shell, raised his head as if realizing something, and looked at her in surprise.

But he was only a general after all, and he couldn't guess what Qin Chu knew through just a few words, so he could only hold his breath and secretly pay attention to her movements.

Qin Chu didn't care too much, and put down the topic neatly, and asked two other questions one after another: "Did he also propose you to use Jingzhou? He negotiated with Liu Biao?"

This question spans too much, Ji Ling was taken aback for a moment, as if recalling: "Should..."

Qin Chu turned his wrist and slowly picked up the scabbard.

"It's him!" Ji Ling hurriedly said, "He brought it up. I don't know about negotiating with Liu Biao. At that time, I only saw his son Liu Cong."

"Oh." Qin Chu nodded reservedly, and exchanged glances with Xun Yu, seeing a little understanding in each other's eyes.

Long before she went south, rumors of Liu Biao's health had spread into Luoyang.Although the specific time of Liu Bian's critical illness has changed, the general composition of Jingzhou remains the same as the historical data.Whether to allow Yuan Shu to make excuses is related to Jingzhou's position. If Liu Biao still has the energy to negotiate, he will definitely not send his heirs to negotiate with Yuan Shu. From this point of view, Liu Biao may be really sick.

At the same time, it is not a secret that Liu Biao's second son is at odds and has repeatedly fought for the power of Jingzhou.These two people are of mediocre aptitude, and they are evenly matched for their own father's one-third of an acre of land. It's not easy for Liu Cong to give Yuan Shu a hand, and he probably won't be able to do anything else at this time.

That being the case, there is no need to worry about Jingzhou taking advantage of the situation.

With the bottom line in his heart, Qin Chu calmed down a lot.She closed her eyes slightly, turned her head again, and said politely to Ji Ling:

"It's okay, go away."

Ji Ling: "..."

The woman was uncertain, and the questions she asked were inexplicable.Ji Ling didn't bother to figure out what she was thinking, and when she heard the words, it was as if she had received an amnesty, and she rolled back to the door without stopping, and was willingly escorted back by the soldiers to tease the mouse.

When the movement outside the study gradually subsided and the sound of footsteps disappeared in the distance, Qin Chu put aside the messy matter in Jingzhou, organized his thoughts, and said directly: "The two of the Yuan family have been in contact for a long time."

Xun Yu thought more clearly than her, nodded slightly when he heard the words, and added: "Yuan Gonggong doesn't know about the Luoyang incident yet, if he seizes the right time and conveys this matter to him, the difficulty of Yangdi may be relieved."

As he spoke, the tails of his eyes slightly raised, revealing a slight smile: "My lord, why don't you bring more people back to Luoyang?"

Qin Chu looked at him and finally smiled.

Xun Yu's words were still too tactful.If Yuan Shu knew that he accepted the counselor sent by Yuan Shao, worked so hard to confront Qin Chu in Yuzhou according to his words, and in the end paid tens of thousands of people to no avail, and even made wedding clothes for others, he would probably jump in a hurry. Would he be on the spot? Turning the spearhead is also not sure.

"Wen Ruo is really sharp." She couldn't help raising her hand, touching the scabbard repeatedly, "It seems that Yuan Benchu ​​is the only one who really needs to be vigilant."

In the afternoon of the next day, news spread in Yangdi City that Qin Chu led thirty thousand soldiers and horses back to Luoyang.It is not known whether this news is true or not, the cause and effect are not clear, and even the number of soldiers and horses is vague and each has its own theory, which makes people fantasize even more.

"Now is the critical juncture of the decisive battle, and she rushed back at this time..." Yuan Shu frowned, feeling uneasy for no reason, so he turned to look at Simpi.

Simpiben was still staring at the outside of the tent, wondering what he was thinking about, and when he saw his gaze shifted over, he immediately showed a little worry in cooperation, and speculated seriously: "Probably there is something wrong in Luoyang City. I heard that the emperor After Dong Zhuo's incident, his health deteriorated day by day, and Fu Yi returned to the city in a hurry, it is unknown whether the emperor was critically ill and the city was in turmoil."

Yuan Shu was actually convinced by him, his expression was shocked, he nodded repeatedly and said: "George is right. If this is the case, we should seize the opportunity and return to Xuzhou after capturing Yang Di, and help Chen Liu as soon as possible." The king is."

The corners of Simpi's eyes twitched unconsciously, and he raised his sleeves to cover his face without changing his expression. By tidying up his clothes, he managed to hide the untimely sarcasm on his face.

Yuan Shao sent him here, on the surface to "recommend good talents", but in fact he just asked him to monitor Yuan Shu and wait for an opportunity.This point was done too clearly, even a brave general like Ji Ling could see that something was wrong.

But after all, Yuan Shao lived with his direct brother for more than ten years, and he was well aware of Yuan Shu's self-willed and overly arrogant temperament, so he guessed exactly what this person was thinking, and put such a big "yang conspiracy" like Xin Pi into Yuan Shu's account. It became a half-conspiracy that "only Yuan Shu can't see it".

Qin Chu rushed back to the city at this time, which should mean that Yuan Shao had bypassed Sizhou and forced himself to Luoyang.As far as Xinpi was concerned, it was enough to use Yuan Shu to restrain Qin and Chu's forces.

"The general is wise," he bowed his head respectfully, "the most urgent thing is to capture Yang Di as soon as possible, and force the court to recognize King Chen Liu."
