Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 363

Gao Shun couldn't be bothered by Yuan Xi, so he had to talk about a few tricks of military training. How could he fail to see that Yuan Xi harbored ill intentions towards him, but the more he was like this, the less he could show any closeness to Yuan Xi.

Without him, his current situation is too embarrassing.

Gao Shun also knew that his style of conduct did not fit well with Lu Bu and his generals, and even Zhang Liao, who was closest to him, had only a casual relationship.

At the beginning, due to various reasons, he left the Yuan family on a whim and switched to Lv Bu. Although Lv Bu thought highly of him at the beginning and gave him the same general position as Chen Gong, Gao Shun knew that Lv Bu always had something for him dreadful.

Lu Bu was already suspicious. He betrayed the leader twice, so he was naturally afraid of being betrayed by his powerful subordinates. However, Gao Shun was incompatible with everyone, and he was in control of the camp, which made Lu Bu unconsciously and secretly wary.

The Huaicheng Rebellion became the last straw that crushed Lu Bu. Except for Wei Xu, who was related to him, Lu Bu found that he could not trust anyone anymore, so he pushed the boat along and cut Gao Shun's military power.

Although Gao Shun was dissatisfied, he had no other choice now. Lu Bu betrayed the Lord twice, and his reputation was notorious. He himself betrayed the Yuan family. Can he betray Lu Bu again?
So when Yuan Xi unabashedly showed his intention to solicit Gao Shun, Gao Shun hesitated for a while but refused. If he went back to join the Yuan family, wouldn't he appear to be a capricious villain?
Gao Shun's entangled appearance made Yuan Xi secretly proud. Gao Shun's talent could not be brought into play at Lu Bu at all. He was really inferior, and now that he is being targeted by me, he still wants to run away?

Watch me how the overlord fights hard!
He took Gao Shun's hand like a candy, and poured the ecstasy soup until he was on the verge of collapse, when he heard a cough, Yuan Xi turned his head, and saw Lu Bu staring at him with an unfriendly expression behind him.

When Gao Shun saw it, he took the opportunity to draw out his hand, cupped his hands and said, "Marquis Wen."

He didn't explain anything, and he didn't bother to explain, his temper was just like that.

Yuan Xi withdrew his hand reluctantly, and said to Lu Bu: "General Gao and I are so close that we even want to exchange half of Bingzhou with Marquis Wen."

Gao Shun's face froze, did you say that!

Lu Bu's complexion became even more unsightly, he snorted coldly, "Fierce tiger, love is love, when you lied to me, you didn't see any kindness from An!"

Yuan Xiqiang said with a smile: "Wen Hou has wronged me. Yuan Cao has a good relationship. As a son of the Yuan family, I also take a lot of risks by helping Wen Hou and the Cao family fight against each other."

Lu Bu said angrily: "Who knows what idea you have, how to lie to me with stargazing, full of lies!"

Yuan Xi's complexion remained unchanged, "Marquis Wen should know better than me whether stargazing is real."

"Wen Hou should understand that if I hadn't been optimistic about the prospect of joining forces with Wen Hou, I wouldn't have appeared here."

After hearing this, Lu Bu softened his tone, "How can you prove your sincerity?"

Yuan Xi made a gesture of invitation, and said with a smile, "Why don't Marquis Wen come in and talk in detail?"

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun stood outside the camp separately, and couldn't help but glance at each other.

Lu Bu went in alone, but Yuan Xi brought Ju Shou in. Although this did not explain anything, Yuan Xi was obviously more generous than Lu Bu in terms of being open and honest with his subordinates.

In the tent, Lv Bu, Yuan Xiju and the three sat down, and Lv Bu didn't go around in circles, and said, "Are you really joining hands with me?"

"I'm in a bad situation now, what benefits can I give you?"

"What good can you do me?"

Yuan Xi heard this, and said with a smile: "I'm afraid Wen Hou has not made up his mind on what to do next."

"Indeed, at the south of Hanoi, Yuan Shu's army is about to move from Yuzhou."

"Cao Jun stretched out his hand from Yanzhou, staring at Huaicheng, and almost succeeded in his plot."

"During the Huaicheng Rebellion, the Black Mountain Army was obviously playing tricks behind the scenes. Marquis Wen was attacked from three sides."

"However, among Marquis Wen's subordinates, there are very likely people who conspired against the rebellion, maybe even not one or two, so that Marquis Wen couldn't believe it."

"Under such circumstances, I'm afraid that Marquis Wen has lost confidence in catering to the emperor?"

After hearing this, Lu Bu clenched his fists. Yuan Xi was indeed right. This incident came one after another, which made him not sure what to do next.

His nature is not made to be a protagonist, he just wants to be a general, and it is enough to be able to fight in battle. It is too difficult for him to use his brain to play tricks!
He said coldly: "I admit that what you said is reasonable, so you plan to take advantage of the fire?"

Yuan Xi replied: "Where, I want to be Marquis Wen's most reliable ally, that's all."

After hearing this, Lu Bu was noncommittal, "Can you solve my predicament?"

After hearing this, Yuan Xi saw that Lu Bu had already taken the bait, so he said, "Mr. Gong and Mr. Yu explained it more clearly than me. I want him to answer for me."

When Jushou and Lu Bu were under Yuan Shao's command, they were among the top three among Yuan Shao's vassals, much higher than Lu Bu's, so Lu Bu softened his face when he heard this, and said, "Then I Just listen."

Ju Shou cupped his hands to the two of them, and said, "Marquis Wen is currently troubled both internally and externally. If it weren't for the help of the young master, the situation would be in danger."

Lu Bu snorted coldly.

Ju Shou said again: "Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Heishan, and traitors are the four troubles. They seem to be troublesome, but they can be divided and cured."

"And the key is to please the emperor."

"As long as the emperor can be welcomed to Huaicheng, at least three problems can be solved."

Lu Bu was a little emotional at the moment, and said in a deep voice, "I would like to hear the details."

Ju Shou knew that no one dared to believe Lv Bu at this time, and this was a good opportunity to convince him, so he immediately said: "Although the Han Dynasty is in decline, but after all, its vitality is not exhausted, otherwise there will be no competition for the emperor's home."

"Marquis Wen was already on good terms with the emperor, and the emperor also issued an edict for Marquis Wen to pick him up, but it's a pity that Marquis Wen missed this opportunity."

"If the Son of Heaven is in Huaicheng, people all over the world who love the Han Dynasty will flock here, and Marquis Wen will be able to expand his army. How dare Cao Cao plot easily like this? How dare the Black Mountain Army, which was titled by the Han Dynasty, rebel again, and the traitors dare not act rashly. As a result, he was accused of murdering the emperor?"

"It can be said that today's emperor is the biggest amulet of Marquis Wen, and it should never be missed!"

Lu Bu was moved immediately, and excitedly slapped his thigh, "Well said!" But he calmed down immediately, frowned and said, "Nowadays there are so many forces competing for the emperor, how could I win?"

"Furthermore, Li Jue and Guo Si are bound to win the Son of Heaven. Even Chang'an has been beaten to nothing. If they come to attack me, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop them."

Ju Shou stroked his beard and said, "If you say they won't attack Huaicheng, I can't guarantee that either."

"But to please the emperor, do we have to kill everyone else?"

"If Marquis Wen rushed to the emperor's side as quickly as possible and gained the trust of the emperor, he would be able to snatch the emperor from Cao Cao."

"Although the Baibo bandits are terrible, as long as Marquis Wen joins hands with the Youzhou army to suppress them, if we can subdue them again and think of it as a help, Li Jue and Guo Si are no match for us!"

Lu Bu was completely moved this time, but he knew that things would definitely not go so smoothly, so he said, "I can send thousands of troops here, but Youzhou only has 2000 troops?"

"With these people alone, can they really subdue the Baibo thief and defeat Li Jue and Guo Si?"

Yuan Xi thought that Lu Bu was really afraid of Li Jue and Guo Si, but thinking about it, Lu Bu's good situation was ruined overnight after Li Jue and Guo Si defeated Chang'an.

The Flying Bear Army led by the opponent can be called the elite of the Xiliang Army. The Tianzi Motorcade was defeated by it several times, which shows its extraordinary strength.

Ju Shou heard the words and said: "Indeed, so we need Marquis Wen to find some help, such as Duan Yan who returned to Huayin."

Lu Bu was taken aback, why did he mention this person?
Ju Shou talked about Duan Yan's flattery to the emperor, but was driven away by suspicion, and finally said: "Marquis Wen and Qi Zeng were both Taishi Dong's subordinates, so they should understand how he is."

When Lu Bu heard Dong Zhuo's name, an unnatural look flashed across his face, and he said, "Indeed, although Duan Yan is a military general in Liangzhou, he is a different kind, and he behaves a bit like Gao Shun."

Ju Shou said: "This person hates Li Jue and Guo Si deeply. If Marquis Wen sends a letter inviting him to attack Li Jue and Guo Si, this person will definitely agree."

"And if Marquis Wen welcomes the emperor first, it will keep other people from acting rashly for quite a while."

"Even Cao Cao has to plan again, so that Marquis Wen can have a breathing space."

Lu Bu listened, nodded his head, and said, "I know the benefits of catering to the emperor, but if Yuan Shu wants to become emperor, he will definitely attack me. I'm afraid he won't obey the emperor's orders, right?"

After hearing this, Ju Shou said, "That's right, the battle between Marquis Wen and Yuan Shu is unavoidable."

"But from another perspective, Yuan Shu is not an enemy of the world?"

"As long as you have the name of catering to the emperor, there must be many people who are willing to help Marquis Wen, and Marquis Wen will never fight alone!"

Ju Shou finally said: "So the key to everything lies with the Son of Heaven!"

"First welcome the emperor to Huaicheng, and then use the name of the emperor to recruit allies and defeat Yuan Shu. Great things can be expected!"

Lu Bu was completely persuaded. On the one hand, Ju Shou's statement was reasonable, and he conceived a feasible blueprint for Lu Bu's psychology.

On the other hand, as a top strategist, Jushou's vision and eloquence are indeed much higher than Chen Gong's. Chen Gong sometimes understands it in his heart, but because of his own temper and experience, he often fails to persuade Lu Bu, and instead he gets into it. Into the horns.

Lu Bu finally thought of a question, "I had a grudge against the Yuan family, why did Youzhou help me so much?"

Ju Shou smiled and said, "Of course the young master is optimistic about Marquis Wen."

How could Lu Bu be fooled by such words, and said, "How to prove it?"

"How do I know, did you kick me away after using me, just like what Yuan Shao did at that time?"

Knowing that Lu Bu was deeply concerned about being assassinated by Yuan Shao, Ju Shou glanced at Yuan Xi and said, "The two sides can marry."

Lv Bu was startled, but then he came to his senses, pointed at Yuan Xi and said, "Aren't you married?"

"Are you going to divorce your main wife?"

Yuan Xi heard this, shook his head and said, "That's not true."

"What!" Lu Bu was instantly murderous, "You want to take my daughter as a concubine?"

"you wanna die!"
