Agents of the Three Kingdoms

The corners of Li Ru's mouth turned up slightly, forming an arc, with a faint smile.

His smile is different from Xun Chen's, which makes people shudder.

Li Ru's expression was serious, and he said slowly: "To tell you the truth, Xiangguo also hated Yuan Shao to the bone. Back then, Xiangguo led troops into Luoyang, treated Yuan Shao well, and trained Yuan Shao as his right-hand man. But That Yuan Shao doesn't know good and evil, always against Xiangguo, and even sneaked out of Luoyang, it's really hateful."

"That's the case, Mr. Xiangguo didn't care about Yuan Shao's mistakes, and he appointed Yuan Shao as the prefect of Bohai County, and let Yuan Shao take charge of the government. The same is true for Cao Cao. He treated Cao Cao with courtesy, but Cao Cao also betrayed him. Xiangguo even issued a call to crusade against Xiangguo. These people are too bad, and Xiangguo is heartbroken!"

Li Ru sighed again and again, with a cold murderous intent in his eyes, wishing he could kill Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

Xun Chen said in his heart that Dong Zhuo is a failure enough to be a man.

He wanted to win over Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, but in the end it was all in vain.

With a smile on his face, Xun Chen echoed, "Yuan Shao is a thief with ambition, and he is an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf. When Yuan Shao first entered Bohai County, he was short of food when he first arrived. Han Zhoumu's strong support made him tide over the difficulties. Unexpectedly It was Han Zhoumu's good intentions, but what he got was Yuan Shao's merciless revenge. Yuan Shao rebelled several times, intending to seize Jizhou, this person is born with a rebellious personality."

Li Ru said heavily: "Yes, yes, Yuan Shao is born with a rebellious personality at the back of his head."

Follow the words, but without the slightest expression.

Xun Chen secretly said that Li Ru was difficult to deal with, but his expression was calm, with a faint smile, making it difficult to see what was in his heart.

Li Ru thought to himself, "You're still a little too tender for trying to get me to say something out of my mouth."

The two people had a seemingly simple conversation, but they were hiding their wits, trying to get words out of the other's mouth.

Xun Chen sorted out his words, and then said: "Brother Wenyou, Jizhou has been turbulent recently, with waves of unrest and waves of unrest, and continuous wars, did you know?"

Li Ru looked like he didn't understand, shook his head and said, "I don't know, please let me know."

Xun Chen sneered in his heart, you even know that I am an official under Wang Lei, how could you not know about Jizhou.With Dong Zhuo's temperament, it is impossible not to pay attention to Wang Lei's affairs.

Obviously, it was intentional.

Xun Chen said slowly: "Yuan Shao is a white-eyed wolf. He sent people to bribe the Wuhuan soldiers with money, and together with the Wuhuan soldiers plundered Jizhou. Brother Wenyou, you are in Chang'an, so you don't know the situation of Jizhou. The Lord sent news It is said that Wuhuan soldiers went all the way south from Tang County in Zhongshan State, burning, killing and looting, men, the old and the weak were killed, women and children were taken away-rape-fornication, villages were burned, and where the Wuhuan people passed, there was a piece of scorched earth, There are thousands of miles of red land. The Wuhuan people who are murdered these days are committing crimes! This is Yuan Shao's crime."

"Yeah! It should be killed, it should be killed!"

Li Ru gritted his teeth with hatred, and also looked down on Yuan Shao, thinking that Yuan Shao's actions were too bad.

You can rebel, but you should not unite with the Wuhuan people.

As a native of Xiliang, Li Ru often dealt with the Qiang, Xiongnu, Xianbei and others. He knew the barbarism and brutality of the Hu people.

Yuan Shao colluded with Wuhuan and made a wrong move.

One wrong step, one wrong step!

Thinking of the innocent people who died, Li Ru sighed softly in his heart, and said, "You Ruo, I also despise Yuan Shao's actions, but it is quite difficult for Xiangguo to deal with Yuan Shao. The lintel is prominent, once Xiangguo takes action against Yuan Shao, I am afraid it will attract the backlash of Yuan's disciples and old officials, which is not conducive to Xiangguo's control of the court."

Xun Chen was overjoyed, and Li Ru began to let go.

In fact, what made Li Ru let go was because Li Ru had also suffered from the scourge of the Hu people.Furthermore, Li Ru did not harm Dong Zhuo's interests by doing so.The two reasons are superimposed, and Li Ru will let Xun Chen go one step further.

If it harms Dong Zhuo's interests, it is impossible for Li Ru to make concessions.

Xun Chen said: "Brother Wenyou, according to what you said, Xiangguo has not completely controlled the court since he took over Sheji. Even the Yuan family is afraid. I doubt Xiangguo's ability."

Li Ru rolled his eyes and thought, "You are from the Xun family in Yingchuan, and you are not afraid of the Yuan family, but Dong Zhuo is different."

Xun Chen continued: "The Yuan family was born in Runan County. Most of Yuan's disciples and old officials are in Runan. The power in the court is not too strong. If this is the case, the Prime Minister will still take care of it. I can only say that I overestimated it. Xiangguo's ability."

After hearing this, Li Ru was neither angry nor happy, and did not refute.

Xun Chen said again: "Actually, attacking Yuan Shao is an opportunity to strengthen Xiangguo's control over the court. As long as the Yuan family power in the court rises, Xiangguo can immediately find a way to deal with it. Isn't this eliminating Xiangguo's political enemies?"

Historically, Dong Zhuo took advantage of the reason that Yuan Shao served as the leader of the Dong League to kill the Tai Fu Yuan Kai, who was one of the three princes, and killed Yuan Kai's whole family, taking the opportunity to strengthen his control over the court.Due to Wang Lei's operation, Yuan Shao failed to be the leader, and Dong Zhuo had no reason.

So far, Yuan Kai is still alive and kicking.

Li Ru nodded, but his expression did not change, and he said calmly: "You Ruo, I agree with your suggestion, and I even want to report it to Xiangguo immediately. But you should understand a truth, Xiangguo cannot do business at a loss, Xiangguo If you deal with Yuan Shao in order to strengthen the control of the imperial court, what you gain is obviously not commensurate with what you lose. Xiangguo offended all the disciples of the Yuan family in the whole world, but he only gained control of a small imperial court, which would benefit Wang Lei instead. There is no such reason. "

When it came to business, Li Ru refused to budge.

Xun Chen gave a thumbs up and praised: "After I arrived in Chang'an, I heard people say that Li Ru was Xiangguo's think tank and the Xiangguo's confidant, and now it seems that his reputation is well-deserved. Brother Wenyou is loyal to Xiangguo, It is admirable to think about the country."

Li Ru waved his hand and said, "Youruo praised you so much, Ru is ashamed and dare not take it seriously, he just did what a subject should do."

After a pause, Li Ru said: "Wang Lei's conditions are not enough to persuade Xiangguo to attack Yuan Shao."

Xun Chen knew this would be the case, and said: "If Xiangguo is willing to issue an edict by the order of the emperor, convict Yuan Shao, and appoint the Lord as the shepherd of Jizhou, the Lord is willing to serve the Xiangguo."

Li Ru sneered: "Efficacy? To what extent?"

Xun Chen said: "Brother Wen You, my lord is willing to form an alliance with the Xiangguo and help each other. Once the Xiangguo is in danger, the lord will definitely lead the army to rescue."

Li Ru shook his head and said, "Not enough, far enough!"

Xun Chen frowned, he didn't expect Li Ru to be so difficult when it came to serious matters.
