Chapter 413
The news that the emperor temporarily moved to Huaicheng and ordered the world has spread all over the world. For the two Yuans who were fighting, it was not very good news, and they fell into an extremely embarrassing situation at the same time.

Needless to say, Yuan Shao was in a stalemate with the Black Mountain Army, but news came that the emperor wanted to mediate between the two parties, which made Jizhou quite embarrassed.

What is even more controversial is that Yuan Xi, who is a child of the Yuan family, accepted the canonization of the Son of Heaven alone, even earlier than Yuan Shao!

This is a bit of a taboo, not to mention that Liu Xie also appointed Yuan Shao as a Taiwei, but this position is below Lu Bu. When Yuan Shao heard the news, he was very unhappy, and he did not express his position and accepted the title for a long time.

The counselors in Jizhou are also arguing about this matter. After all, on the one hand, the Yuan family is still a courtier of the Han court, but on the other hand, if they bow their heads to the Han court, it will not be conducive to gathering people's hearts. After all, Yuan Shao's men only gathered because they saw the prospect of rebelling against the Han court!

After Yuan Shang in Montenegro heard the news, he was even more furious. Before the envoys from the Han court arrived, he launched several extremely violent attacks, beating Zhang Yan until he could not stop crying.

But at this time, by coincidence, Yang Feng was ill and unable to play, which made Zhang Yan suspicious. Is Yang Feng really ill, or is he threatening him?

On Yuan Shao's side, he was vacillating, and Yuan Shu's side felt even more humiliated.

After being beaten back by Yuan Xi's tricks, Yuan Yao didn't give up at first, and led Zhang Xun to spy outside the city, trying to find an opportunity to rebel. As a result, as the emperor drove back, Huaicheng's strength and troops increased greatly, and many advisers gathered, all of a sudden overwhelmed Yuan Yaojun.

Among them, there were signs of Huaicheng's intention to attack Yuan Yao's army. Seeing that the situation was not good, Yuan Yao quickly retreated towards Yuzhou, which meant that the attack was a complete failure.

The only good news is that Han Siam of the Baibo Army was defeated by Cao Cao and fled, and he took refuge in Yuan Yao, which can be regarded as a little bit of saving face for Yuan Yao.

After Yuan Shu learned about it, he sent Chang Nu and other generals to replace Yuan Yao and Zhang Xun to station troops on the border of Yuzhou. After all, in his plan, he would become emperor in half a year, and Yuan Yao, the prince, must appear at that time.

In Jiujiang Shouchun, Yuan Shu was sitting on the throne, playing with the jade seal in his hand. This was the so-called Jade Seal that Sun Jian presented to him at the beginning.

The Qin and Han emperors had seven seals. "The Book of Later Han Guangwu Ji" cited Cai Yong's "Du Juan" in the third year of Jianwu: "The six seals of the emperor are all made of jade and tiger.

These six seals have their own uses, and now in the hands of Liu Xie, together with Yuan Shu's most important imperial jade seal, they are called the emperor's seven seals.

It was precisely because of this jade seal that Yuan Shu believed that he was destined by destiny. He believed in divination so much that his witches and wizards kept persuading him to stand on his own.

In today's world, my power is the strongest, and Yuan Shao is not as good as it. As long as I proclaim myself emperor, the heroes of the world's gentry will come to vote one after another, helping me to make my reputation great, and win the world in one fell swoop!
The fly in the ointment is that Yuan Yao really disappointed himself when he lost a battle before he proclaimed himself emperor.

And Zhang Xunqiaorui is even more abominable. As a general, he is so unbearable that he can't even take down a city with a few thousand people!

Not to mention Qiao Rui's capture, if it weren't for the fact that he is about to become emperor and needs to buy people's hearts, he must be severely punished!

Several subordinate officials suspected that Qiao Rui was captured twice, and there must be hidden voices among them, demanding a thorough investigation to make an example of others, but some thought that this matter should not be too strict, so as not to affect Yuan Shu's reputation.

Yuan Shu was thinking about how to deal with Qiao Rui, but when he heard footsteps, he turned his head and saw that it was Feng Shi who came.

The Feng family is the daughter of Feng Fang from Sili. When she was fleeing, she was favored by Yuan Shu and accepted as his concubine. Because of her beautiful appearance, she was extremely favored by Yuan Shu.

He was about 20 years old, with a charming figure, exquisite and slender features, white jade-like skin that seemed to emit luster, lips that were as bright as tears, and pupils like black jade. These three were so distinctive that Yuan Shu's other concubines in the harem were all overshadowed by them.

Because of this, Feng Shi was extremely jealous of other concubines, and they all tried to trick her, including tricking her into pretending to be sad, and teaching her some words that angered Yuan Shu.

The other concubines were at a loss at first, but after seeing Yuan Shu's attitude towards Feng, they realized that being pretty is right in everything, that is, you can do whatever you want!

Seeing Feng Shi coming over, Yuan Shu felt much better immediately, and waved to Feng Shi, "Come here, beauty."

After hearing this, Feng Shi lowered her head and went to Yuan Shu's side and knelt down. Yuan Shu saw that his face was worried, his eyes seemed to be covered with mist, and he asked, "Does the beauty miss her hometown again?"

"Or in the harem, did someone upset the beauty?"

Feng quickly replied: "I'm doing well, there's nothing else to do."

Yuan Shu thought that Mrs. Feng is really hard to find fault with, and couldn't help saying: "Beauty, don't worry, when I become emperor, I will make you the queen, and no one will dare to neglect you."

"I want to make Yuan Yao the crown prince. Although he is not born of you, if you become a queen, he will recognize you as his mother. You will be under one person and above ten thousand."

Feng was shocked when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "How can I be a concubine, dare to be the mother of a country, please order someone else!"

Seeing this, Yuan Shu felt Feng's humility and politeness even more, he laughed and said: "The rest of the women are busy, how can they compare to a beauty with both talent and virtue?"

"Just wait for the time!"

Seeing Yuan Shu's insistence, Mrs. Feng felt even more uneasy. Ever since she was accepted by Yuan Shu, she had always wanted to keep a low profile, but her appearance did not prevent her from keeping a low profile.

Seeing that she was getting more and more favored, she ran counter to her original intention, and now she was going to be made a queen, which made her even more afraid.

The reason for this is that she was born in a family of officials in Sili, and she has seen too much about the struggle between the emperor of the Han Dynasty and the end of the empress being involved.

From Empress Dowager Dong to Empress He, because none of the ascended emperors were their own sons, they were killed.

Now that she was established as the empress, Yuan Yao, as the eldest son of Yuan Shu, was not his own. If Yuan Shu died in the future, how would Yuan Yao treat him?
Feng Shi shuddered when he thought of how many times when Yuan Shu was not paying attention, Yuan Yao looked at him with a beast-like light in his eyes.

Moreover, the Han court still had the emperor, so Yuan Shu dared to proclaim himself emperor. The Feng family was actually not very optimistic about these things, but she would never say anything against Yuan Shu in order to avoid being killed.

Feng felt Yuan Shu's hand stretched out, and while he was silent, his eyes were looking at the sky outside the courtyard.

Liyang, hundreds of miles away from Shouchun, was temporarily stationed by Sun Ben and Wu Jing of Yuan Shu's department. Because they were related to Sun Ce and were quite suspicious, they were released outside to prepare food for Sun Ce who was stationed in Moling and attacked Qu'a.

These grains and grasses are needed a lot, which makes the local people's livelihood worse than before. The soldiers often don't have enough to eat, let alone the common people. But now the city is full of laughter, because the news came that Qu'a was broken!
The breach of Qu'a, the prefecture of Wu Jun, heralded the end of the two-year war, which ended in Liu Yao's complete defeat.

Liu Yao was seriously ill, and was taken by his son Liu Ji to flee to Yuzhang. Some people speculated that he should have defected to Liu Biao in Jingzhou.

But in any case, this great victory, especially for the officials and generals who are attached to Sun Ce, Sun Ce has finally laid down his own territory, and his strength has greatly increased since then, and he has a foundation for standing!

As for Yuan Shu, he could no longer control Sun Ce. If Yuan Shu sent people to appoint Yangzhou officials, not only Sun Ce would not agree, but Sun Ce's subordinates would also not agree!
The generals under Sun Ce, such as Sun Ben and Wu Jing, were all excited when they thought that they could finally be proud and follow Sun Ce to make a fortune.

In their view, following Sun Ce is much more promising than Yuan Shu!
Although Yuan Shu is very powerful, on the one hand, he has too many talents, and on the other hand, his efforts to suppress Sun Ce's family have already chilled their hearts.

While Li Yang was celebrating the whole time, Qiao Rui's mansion in the city was gloomy.

Xiao Qiao held Da Qiao's hand tearfully and said, "Sister, Father has been arrested again, what should I do!"

Da Qiao was also a little irritable in his heart, but he still suppressed his temper and said, "Is there anything I can do."

"Just wait."

Her voice was cold, as if she was indifferent, Xiao Qiao wiped away her tears when she heard this, and said, "Sister, aren't you afraid?"

"There are rumors that my father surrendered to the enemy. I heard that the emperor was furious and wanted to question his family."

"Sister, shall we run?"

Da Qiao naturally also heard these rumors, and said calmly: "If you really want to ask the crime, the whole city will search for it, and we won't be able to escape."

Xiao Qiao said pitifully: "Are we just waiting to die like this?"

Da Qiao sighed softly, "It's not impossible."

"My father has a good relationship with Sun Bofu. If I ask him at that time, maybe for my father's sake, he will help us."

After hearing this, Xiao Qiao became more energetic, "Sun Bofu will really offend the envoy because of us?"

After hearing this, Da Qiao felt quite helpless, "At worst, I'll be a concubine Ji, and I'll be safe in your place."

After hearing this, Xiao Qiao shook her head like a rattle, "How can my younger sister bear the heart to do this!"

Suddenly her eyes lit up, "Why don't I ask Zhou Gongjin to be his concubine, maybe he can save us too, so I don't need my sister to step in!"

Big Qiao had no choice but to knock Xiao Qiao on the head, "You are still young, what are you thinking about all day long!"

After hearing this, Xiao Qiao unconsciously lowered her head to look at her chest, and muttered softly, "It's not too young, at least it's much older than my sister."

After Da Qiao heard it, his cold appearance almost broke his defense.

Little Qiao was two years younger than himself. Although he was much shorter than Big Qiao, all the food he ate was gathered somewhere, making Big Qiao extremely speechless.

Da Qiao pressed Xiao Qiao onto his lap, ignored the other party's begging for mercy, rubbed the other party's head with his fists, and let out a bad breath, but he was still worried.

Sun Bofu and Zhou Gongjin may not fall out because of their father and Yuan Shu. It is better to rely on others than to rely on themselves. When the time comes, my sisters may really have to find a way to escape.

A few tens of miles to the east of Liyang is the riverside ferry. How about buying a servant and preparing a boat in advance?
But where can escape to go?

It was the first time that Da Qiao hated her own daughter. If she was a man, she would have gone out to do these things a long time ago!

But now she had to find a way out. She asked Xiao Qiao to go back to rest, but she started to take care of the family's belongings.

How much does it cost to buy a boat?

Big Joe has a big head.
