Three Kingdoms: The Eighteen Riders of Yanyun are Summoned at the Start

"Your Majesty's messenger?" Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan both looked at each other with strange expressions on their faces.

They are still hostile to Dong Zhuo, the emperor is in Dong Zhuo's hands, isn't the emperor's messenger the same as Dong Zhuo's messenger?

But after all, it was in the name of the emperor, so they did not dare to directly refuse to see him.

"Invite the messenger to the meeting hall, and notify the rest of the princes to go to the meeting hall.

After instructing the soldiers, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan also came out of the tent and went straight to the big tent.

on the agenda.

The emperor's messengers were only three or four, and they looked a bit shabby, but when Yuan Shao arrived, instead of showing any contempt, his face was full of respect.

Because the person who came was Cai Yong, a great scholar in the world.

In terms of seniority, it belongs to Yuan Shao's elders.

"Uncle Cai Shi, why are you here? When did you arrive in Luoyang, why don't I have any news?" Yuan Shao said very enthusiastically.

Cai Yong smiled slightly, not saying anything, just nodding.

Not only did this not make Yuan Shao angry, but he was even more curious about the purpose of Cai Yong's visit.

Without much effort, all the princes in the big tent arrived, and everyone who saw Cai Yong was polite and did not behave rudely.

Of course, Cai Yong only replied politely, and the rest didn't say a word.

After the watchers arrived, Cai Yong cleared his throat and said, "All generals accept the order!

Including Yuan Shao, all the princes were on one knee on the ground.

Cai Yong said loudly: "The edict said: Yuan Shaoping, the prefect of the Bohai Sea, is not good for the suppression of the Dong thieves. From now on, he will be dismissed from the position of the leader of the alliance and replaced by Yuan Shu, the later general. Yuan Shu's grain and grass transport envoy will be Liu Bei, Liu Xuande, a member of the royal family...

Hearing this sentence, Yuan Shao was immediately stunned.

He couldn't believe that there was such an imperial decree. He even reached an agreement with Dong Zhuo a few days ago. How could he issue such an imperial decree?

Yuan Shao was inexplicable on this side, while Yuan Shu on the other side was very happy.

Originally, he was not convinced that Yuan Shao could become the leader of the alliance. He felt that he was much stronger than his elder brother Yuan Shao in terms of background and official position, but Yuan Shao was elected by everyone. Although he was dissatisfied, Yuan Shu had nothing to do. .

But who knows that today has changed dramatically, and he has the appointment of the emperor, then it is completely unusual.

As for Liu Bei, he was even more confused. He originally followed Gongsun Zan to gain fame, so that the people of the world would know that there was an uncle Liu who was still helping the Han family, but now he jumped to Yuan Shu's seat. Become a food and grass transporter, it is really a shotgun for a gun, a salted fish to turn over!

"Still still accepting the order?" Cai Yong said, clearing his throat.

The princes below were all at a loss, not knowing whether they should accept the imperial decree, but Yuan Shu and Liu Bei were the most willing, so they both shouted in unison: "My minister Yuan Shu, my minister Liu Bei accepts the decree!!"

The two were in high spirits and were about to step forward to lead the order.

Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, opened his mouth and said, "Mr. Cai, let's not say whether this imperial decree is true or not, it is impossible to talk about this order alone.

Han Fu and Yuan Shao had a good relationship, so he was the first to speak for Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao also frowned: "This is Dong Zhuo's treachery, how can he succeed? Since he is afraid of me and our Kwantung allied army, we should all fight to defeat him and welcome your majesty back! 99

Yuan Shu was immediately unhappy: "I am a Han minister, how can I disobey the emperor's order? Now that the Holy Order is here, who would dare to disobey?"

Although Liu Bei didn't say anything, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei behind him said loudly, "The imperial order cannot be violated since ancient times. My eldest brother is a member of the royal family.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fought against Lu Bu in front of Hulao Pass, and everyone saw the means, so when they spoke, everyone was convinced.

However, Yuan Shao still scolded: "Where do you have the right to speak here? Come and fork it out for me..."

・・・・Seeking flowers・・

"Who dares?" Guan Yu's Danfeng eyes narrowed, Zhang Fei's eyes widened, and he scolded in unison.

The surroundings fell into peace in an instant, and no one continued to make noise.

Cai Yong stepped forward and came to Yuan Shao: "I didn't come from the Luoyang false emperor, but from Youzhou. Is there anything wrong with the edict issued by the emperor himself?"

"In the beginning, the emperor was deposed by Dong Zhuo, but now he has escaped from the cage, but under the leadership of Yuan Benchu, not only did he not take any action, but he was still stagnant in front of the Hulao Pass. Is there no responsibility? What did you think?

"what?"

"Youzhou?"

At this time, everyone understood that this was Liu Bian's imperial order, not from Liu Xie's hands in Luoyang.

It's just that Yuan Shu and Liu Bei got a huge benefit, so they advocated to follow Liu Bian's order and continue to attack Dong Zhuo.

As for Han Fu, Yuan Shao and others, they said that Liu Bian's name was not right, and he couldn't ascend to the throne...

Everyone was in a mess, but Cao Cao did not speak.

Repeating Cai Yong's words just now in his mind, Cao Cao has a deeper understanding of Liu Bian. This trick is really cruel. .

Even Cao Cao could predict that from today onwards, the Kwantung Allied Forces would basically fall into endless infighting, and if he continued to be involved here, not only would it have no effect, but he would be a waste of time.

Thinking of this Cao Cao also had a little hesitation in his heart, should he support Liu Bian or not.

But in the blink of an eye, he was swallowed up by the powerful ambition in his heart.

Thinking of Xu Shao's evaluation of himself: "A capable minister in ruling the world, a traitor in troubled times!"

Since God gave me a troubled world, I had to obey God's arrangement and be a downright traitor...

Thinking of this, he secretly made a decision in his heart...
