Chapter 598
Although the emperor is young, Ma Teng will never admit his mistakes in his handwriting and seal. This blood edict is true!
When Ma Teng thought of the emperor being held hostage by Liu Bei, his heart was as if he was slashed.
Looking at Ma Teng's reaction, Jia Xu was secretly happy.
This time, Ma Teng and the loyal Han officials in Chang'an City jointly put pressure on Liu Bei. Liu Bei would probably find it difficult to interfere with his lord's use of troops against Xichuan in a short period of time.
"Rebel Liu Bei, the emperor still regards you as the emperor's uncle. This is how you repay Your Majesty?
Such behavior is simply worse than beasts, and it is hard tolerate God!"
After Ma Teng vented, he said to Jia Xu:
"The emperor was in trouble, but fortunately, a loyal man like Mr. Jia ran for His Majesty.
Mr. Ma Teng admired him for his noble character and loyalty.
Please accept Ma Teng’s worship!”
After Ma Teng said that, he was about to kneel down and give a big gift to Jia Xu.
Jia Xu quickly supported him and advised him:
"A general must not!
Xu is just a literati. Although he has the intention to kill thieves, he has no power to eliminate thieves.
Fortunately, with a great man like the general, his Majesty has hope of getting out of trouble."
Ma Teng was moved and said one sentence in his heart:
"Mr. Jia!"
Jia Xu also cooperated very much, and sincerely held Ma Teng's hand and said:
"General Ma!"
Ma Teng and Jia Xu appreciated each other and held a banquet in the mansion to entertain Jia Xu.
Guo Huai admires this old Yin very much.
This guy is really fooled. No matter where he goes, he will be treated with courtesy.
It seems that my previous worries were unnecessary.
When Ma Tengli was preparing to attack Liu Bei, Jia Xu also took Guo Huai and other secret troops to Hebei to provoke Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan.
The way he provoked the two was also very simple, just do the same as the method of fooling Ma Teng.
However, Yuan Shao didn't care about the life or death of the young emperor at all, but only cared about his own interests. Jia Xu had to change his fooling words appropriately.
Jia Xu's statements were also very simple and crude.
He called Gongsun Zan, Liu Bei's former senior brother, a rebel Liu Bei, and hoped that Yuan Shao, a loyal minister, would raise an army to attack him.
Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan have long had old grudges, and their hatred cannot be explained in one sentence or two.
He was worried that there was no reason to use military force against Gongsun Zan. The blood edict brought by Jia Xu was like a pillow for Yuan Shao when he was sleepy.
Yuan Shao's character is to cherish his life when doing big things, and to forget his life when he sees small profits.
At this time, the temptation of annexing Gongsun Zan to occupy Hebei had already made him leave Yuan Shu's threat behind.
No matter how much the two loyal ministers Tian Feng and Ju Shu persuaded them, it would not work.
Yuan Shao raised an army at night and attacked Gongsun Zan under the banner of eliminating thieves for the country.
Just when Gongsun Zan was confused, Jia Xu visited him as an envoy of Emperor Han.
He fooled Gongsun Zan and said that Yuan Shao had long been independent and was a traitor in the world.
As an important official guarding the frontier, General Gongsun should contribute to the emperor and eliminate Yuan Shao, a traitor.
At this time, Gongsun Zan couldn't believe what Jia Xu said, because Yuan Shao had already arrived.
Gongsun Zan had no choice but to lead the white horse to meet the enemy.
Both sides were like water and fire, and under the banner of eliminating thieves for the country, they fought a fierce battle on the land of Hebei.
Liu Yu in Youzhou was also inspired by Li Ru and participated in the battle in Hebei.
Under the planning of Jia Xu and Li Ru, the war swept the whole world.
Shouchun City, Shenwei Hou Mansion.
Yuan Shu planned major events with his confidant advisers in the hall.
The battle reports from the north were constantly spread to Yuan Shu by the dark army like snowflakes, which shocked Yuan Shu.
The two products Jia Xu and Li Ru have too strong execution power!
However, in just one or two months, the entire North Convenience was shrouded in a war.
When Yuan Shu secretly admired the ability of the two, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
When war breaks out, the people will definitely suffer.
Apart from Jia Xu and Li Ru, ordinary strategists may not be able to make up this cruelty.
Zhuge Liang could guess from the war report how Jia Xu and Li Ru planned it.
Although he felt that this move would hurt the world, he could not deny the achievements of the two.
Zhuge Liang sighed and said:
“The chaos in the north has been difficult to calm down for several months.
The lord can go to Xichuan with confidence."
Yuan Shu put the battle report on the table and said to the advisers:
"Wait a little longer, now is not the best time to raise an army."
Xi Zhicai shook the folding fan and asked Yuan Shu:
"Is the lord waiting for news from Guo Tu?"
Yuan Shu nodded and said:
"Those who know me have aspirations.
I believe that the Lord will definitely be able to persuade the good talents from Shu to come and surrender.
When our army grasps the terrain and layout of Xichuan, it is time for us to send troops to attack Shu!"
Just as everyone was discussing enthusiastically, the strategist Liu Ye walked in from outside the door.
He bowed to Yuan Shu and said:
"Lord, Liu Bei's envoy Yang Xiu came to ask for a meeting again.
Are you meeting or not meeting this time?”
Yuan Shu raised his eyebrows and said to Liu Ye:
"Fifty billion yuan, fifty talents.
This is my last bottom line.
If Yang Xiu still doesn't agree, there is no need to meet him.
Keep letting him live in the inn again!"
Liu Ye hurriedly said:
"This time Yang Xiu agreed to the lord's conditions.
As long as Wei Kai can be redeemed, 5 billion tickets and 50 talents will be delivered immediately within one month."
Yuan Shu thought that even someone who could persist like Yang Xiu could not bear it. It seemed that Jia Xu had indeed caused Liu Bei to suffer a lot.
He ordered Liu Ye:
"Since that's the case, I'll just barely meet him.
Let him go to the study in the front yard and wait, and I will go to see him when I have time."
Liu Ye said:
"My subordinates understand."
Since Guo Tu set out to Xichuan, Yang Xiu has repeatedly asked to see Yuan Shu, but he was stopped by Liu Ye.
Yuan Shu only gave Liu Ye a bottom line, and asked Liu Bei to spend at least 5 billion yuan and fifty talents, which almost didn't work.
Of course Yang Xiu refused, so Yuan Shu threw him aside and ignored him.
This made Yang Xiu very bitter.
The conditions of the inn near Wanshan Restaurant are extremely harsh, but it is not enough for Yang Xiu not to live there.
It would be fine if the food was unpalatable, but the strange sounds coming from the next door every late at night and when it was quiet, Yang Xiu couldn't stand it.
During the period of living in Shouchun, Yang Xiu did not sleep well, and every day was a torture for him.
Sometimes Yang Xiuzhen wanted to leave with anger, but after thinking about his lord's earnest instructions, he finally endured it.
No matter how much the price is, you have to exchange Wei Kai back first.
So Yang Xiu had to spend his life to stay and guard the inn to confront Yuan Shu to the end.
Although Yang Xiu had endured it, Liu Bei was a little unable to bear it now.
Ma Teng's uprising and the courtiers who kept challenging his bottom line made Liu Bei very worried.
Liu Bei needed Wei Yu's planning and support, and he could no longer make the old man feel restless every day.
So Liu Bei sent someone to give Yang Xiu a death order, and no matter what, Wei Kai must be redeemed!
No matter how excessive Yuan Shu made, Liu Bei agreed!
