Yangzhou, Jiujiang County, Shouchun, Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, Council Hall.

A guard ran into the conference hall, knelt down on one knee, and bowed his hand to Yuan Shu: "Lord Qi!" ”

"A person who claims to be a minister and a state minister, Xun Chen, is ordered to ask to see the lord."

Yuan Shu pondered for a moment, did not directly answer whether he saw or not, turned to look at everyone in the council hall, and asked, "Do you think that I should meet Zhao Feng's envoy now, or will I expose him for a while first?" ”

Yang Hong waved at Yuan Shu: "The news that the lord wants to be the emperor knows it, and he wants to come to Zhao Bingzhou." ”

"In addition, the ministers were also discussing which princes to send to contact."

"Zhao Bingzhou sent someone to envoy at this time, which should be related to this matter."

"The lord should meet the envoy now, and take a look at Zhao Bingzhou, what he thinks about the lord's claim to be emperor."

Yuan Shu pondered for a moment and looked at Ji Ling: "General Ji, what do you think?" ”

Ji Ling bowed his hand to Yuan Shu: "Return to the lord!" ”

"Zhao Bingzhou had a lot of friendship with the lord in his early years, and the lord also took a lot of care of Zhao Bingzhou."

"Putting these aside, now the land of the three northern states is in the hands of Zhao and the state."

"On the one hand, the lord must win over, and on the other hand, he must be vigilant."

"See it or not, it's better for the lord to make his own decision."

Yuan Shu pondered for a moment, looked at the guards kneeling on the ground, and said directly: "Invite the envoy in!" ”

The guard bowed his hand to Yuan Shu: "Huh! ”

After speaking, he stood up and slowly exited the chamber.

It didn't take long.

Xun Chen walked into the conference hall and waved at Yuan Shu: "I've seen Yuan Yangzhou!" ”

Yuan Shu nodded: "Zhao Bohu sent you here, what is the so-called matter?" ”

Xun Chen waved at Yuan Shu: "Dare to ask." ”

"Yuan Yangzhou, are you really ready to be the emperor!"

Yuan Shu hadn't replied yet.

Liu Xun pointed at Xun Chen and said loudly: "Bold! ”

Xun Chen looked at Liu Xun and said with a smile: "I said that I had the courage to ask." ”

"Naturally, you will be a little bolder!"

Liu Xun pointed at Xun Chen: "You ......"

Yuan Shu stopped: "Okay, after this matter is leaked out, everyone will know about it." ”

"It's no secret."

Then he nodded to Xun Chen: "This matter has not yet been decided." ”

"The specific situation depends on the reaction of the people in the world."

Xun Chen was surprised: "What does Yuan Yangzhou mean is that the matter of being called the emperor was deliberately leaked out?" ”

Yuan Shu smiled: "Sort of!" ”

Xun Chen pondered for a moment: "In other words, if the princes from all walks of life strongly oppose it, Yuan Yangzhou will not be called the emperor?" ”

Yuan Shu smiled and said nothing.

When Xun Chen saw Yuan Shu's expression, he knew that this matter should be eight or nine without ten.

If the princes of all walks of life reacted strongly to this, Yuan Shu could say that this was deliberately framed by some people.

When the time comes, catch a group of people by the way, kill another group of people, and the matter will be resolved.

If the princes of all walks of life have different thoughts, Yuan Shu will take the opportunity to ascend the throne as emperor.

Xun Chen had a guess in his heart, and then made a gesture to Yuan Shu: "Dare to ask Yuan Yangzhou, do you still remember what my lord said to Yuan Yangzhou when he was in Luoyang?" ”

"If you remember, please retreat!"

Yuan Shu didn't think about it, and waved his hand directly: "Everyone stand down for the time being!" ”

Everyone under Yuan Shu's command, you look at me, I look at you, and then they all walked to the middle of the hall and saluted Yuan Shu: "Oh! ”

After speaking, they withdrew from the conference hall one after another.

Wait for everyone to leave.

Yuan Shucai spoke: "Zhao Bohu asked the envoy to ask this sentence, there should be good news to bring." ”

Xun Chen pondered for a moment: "The lord originally sent his ministers to dissuade Yuan Yangzhou and not to be the emperor for the time being. ”

"But I just heard that it's just a temptation, so I know there's no need to dissuade it."

Then he said bluntly: "The lord and the minister told Yuan Yangzhou. ”

"The young emperor is not dead, he is currently in the lord's mansion!"

After hearing this, Yuan Shu stood up in surprise: "This is impossible!" ”

Then he seemed to think of something: "If it is really the young emperor Liu Bian, Zhao Bohu should directly re-establish Liu Biao as the emperor!" ”

"Could it be that this is ...... Fake? ”

Xun Chen smiled and said: "Coincidentally, the lord asked me to escort the people of the He family when they returned to the Yuan family." ”

"I just met this person, and this person is currently sixty percent similar to the young emperor seven or eight years ago."

"Is it true or not, do you need to pay special attention?"

When Yuan Shu heard this explanation, he knelt down and nodded: "It means that this person may really be the Young Emperor Liu Bian, or maybe he is the substitute for the Young Emperor in his early years." ”

"But it's true that as the envoy said, you don't need to care too much about whether it's true or not."

"This is what Mr. Zhao said at the beginning, can you find another key thing in the north?"

Xun Chen naturally didn't answer, because Xun Chen didn't know the bottom in his heart.

Yuan Shu pondered for a long time, and then asked, "Mr. Zhao asked you to come, is there anything special to order?" ”

Xun Chen waved at Yuan Shu: "Don't dare to say anything." ”

"The lord just suggested that Yuan Yangzhou should first re-establish the young emperor as the emperor."

"There are young emperors and jade seals, as long as Yuan Yangzhou handles it properly, it will be the destiny of heaven, and the identity will be more orthodox than the son of heaven in Xu Du!"

"In just five years, Duke Yuan will be able to make the Son of Heaven crown himself king."

"After ten years, you can let the Son of Heaven and the prince!"

"Everything is right!"

Yuan Shu pondered for a long time: "It sounds like it is indeed justified." ”

"It's safer than what I'm doing."

"But why didn't Mr. Zhao do it himself?"

Xun Chen sighed: "Actually, as a subordinate, I also want the lord to do it himself." ”

"But the lord said that he didn't have a destiny in his body, and he couldn't take that step!"

"So I can only be a minister of the dragon, and finally be a prince."

The meaning of these words is to imply that Yuan Shu has Liu Bang's order.

Because Liu Bang claimed that he was the son of the red dragon.

Yuan Shu said with a smile: "Mr. Zhao's talent, Yuan admires it so much!" ”

"Dare to ask the envoy, when is Mr. Zhao going to send the young emperor to Shouchun?"

Xun Chen said bluntly: "As long as the minister's letter is sent back to the Yuan clan, the lord will send someone to escort the young emperor to Shouchun." ”

"But in this way, the other princes may find out that something is wrong."

"Therefore, it is better for Duke Yuan to send a delegation of envoys to all the princes to explain that the matter of claiming the emperor is a rumor and cannot be true."

"In this way, when the envoy group returns, they can bring the young emperor back directly."

"The other princes of the province have noticed something wrong!"

Yuan Shu nodded: "It's still Mr. Zhao who is thoughtful." ”

"Let you go to the post house to rest for a few days."

"This needs to be carefully planned."

Xun Chen gave Yuan Shu a look: "It should be!" ”

Yuan Shu nodded and looked at the little colonel next to him: "Send the envoy to the post house to rest." ”

The little proofreader arched his hand to Yuan Shu: "Wow! ”

Then he walked in front of Xun Chen, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please: "Make your please!" ”

Xun Chen nodded, and then withdrew from the conference hall with Xiao Xiaoxiao.
