Can I get to the other side?.

Chapter 76 Is this emperor Liu Xie or Liu Bang?

Yuan Mansion.

Today was the Yuan family's family dinner. Madam Liu specially ordered the servants to prepare a table of dishes, and then called her two sons Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang to come and dine together.

However, Yuan Xi claimed to be sick at home, so only Yuan Shang came.

"Where's Xianyi?"

Yuan Shao had already sat down at the dinner table. Seeing that his second son Yuan Xi was not at the table, he asked Madam Liu.

Madam Liu replied, "Xianyi has been feeling unwell recently and is recuperating at home. I will ask the housekeeper to bring him some food later."

However, Yuan Shao snorted coldly upon hearing this: "It's just an excuse. I scolded him that day and he felt resentful towards me. Did he think I didn't know?"

"He has even neglected the matters at hand these past few days, staying indoors. Even yesterday when I asked him to send the Zhen family members away, he did not show up."

"How childish!"

Yuan Shao was very dissatisfied with Yuan Xi's behavior.

He behaves like this when he encounters a little setback.

What if we suffer a major defeat in the future?

You must know that only the one who is indomitable is a true man!
"Father, my second brother might really be ill. I will go to visit him after dinner to see how he is doing."

Yuan Shang's face was full of concern.

But in his heart he was gloating.

Of course he understood why his second brother Yuan Xi had not shown up in the past few days. It was because he was angry that day that he became like that.

"Let's eat!"

Yuan Shao didn't want to talk about his second son anymore and said directly.

But at this time, Ju Su hurriedly ran in from outside.

Yuan Shao smiled and invited him, "You have come at the right time, sit down and have a meal together."

"Lord!"

Ju Shou was in no mood to eat now. He said solemnly, "Someone from the palace just reported that Zhang Xiu's strategist, Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe, has entered the palace to pay homage to the emperor."

Upon hearing the news, Yuan Shao was shocked. He put down his chopsticks and asked, "Why did he come to Yecheng?"

Of course he had heard of Jia Xu's name.

This man was originally Dong Zhuo's aide, and later advised Li Jue and Guo Si to counterattack Chang'an. After Li Jue's defeat, he became Zhang Xiu's adviser.

In the previous battle of Wancheng, Zhang Xiu was able to defeat Cao Cao and kill his eldest son Cao Ang, nephew Cao Anmin and general Dian Wei, which was most likely due to this person's planning!

Now that Zhang Xiu has fled to Yangzhou, why did Jia Xu come to Yecheng?
And he went straight into the palace to pay homage to the emperor?
"I just learned of this news. Jia Xu should have been summoned by His Majesty now."

Ju Su replied, his tone not without worry.

Yuan Shao naturally knew what he was worried about. His face was uncertain, and he finally ordered: "Prepare the car and go to the palace!"

……

In the imperial palace, the eunuch took Jia Xu to the main hall.

Along the way, Jia Xu looked around the palace, while thinking about what he should do next.

In fact, he had thought carefully about coming to Yecheng this time.

Because he planned to kill Cao Cao's eldest son in Wancheng, if he fell into Cao Cao's hands, he might not be able to save his life.

Although he thought that Cao Cao might not kill him in order to show his magnanimity, this matter depended entirely on luck, and he did not want to gamble with his life.

Even if Cao Cao didn't kill him, what about Cao Cao's son?
After Cao Cao died, would his successor avenge his brother?
Yuan Shao had an emperor in his hands and also occupied a righteous position.

That's why he set his target on Yuan Shao.

If the emperor cannot assist you, then you should just work honestly for Yuan Shao and not think about anything else.

If the emperor is able to assist, then I will help him to undermine Yuan Shao's foundation and become a loyal minister.

Yuan Shao's internal situation was not as stable as Cao Cao's, but full of factions. Jia Xu liked to come to such places the most, where he could get along with everyone and succeed in everything.

But now there is the only problem.

He didn't know whether the emperor in the palace was real or fake.

After all, both Cao Cao and Yuan Shao now have an emperor.

Just as Jia Xu was thinking about this, the eunuch leading the way in front stopped, and the main hall appeared in front of him.

"Guanglu Doctor, we are here."

The eunuch bowed and said respectfully.

Jia Xu nodded to him, then stepped into the hall.

But the hall was empty, no one was there.

"What about Your Majesty?"

Jia Xu frowned. Didn’t His Majesty already summon him? Why didn’t he see him?

Could it be that... Yuan Shao doesn't have an emperor at all?
However, just as this thought came to his mind, he heard messy footsteps behind him, accompanied by a cry so affectionate that it made him shudder.

“My dear——!”

Jia Xu turned around and looked, and then he saw Liu Xie running towards him in dishevel, with his crown on his head not properly worn and even wearing only one shoe, and a eunuch holding a shoe was chasing him from behind.

"Your Majesty..."

Before Jia Xu could even utter the word "Your Majesty", Liu Xie rushed over, grabbed his hand, and burst into tears.

"My dear! I finally see you!"

Liu Xie hugged Jia Xu and cried bitterly.

Jia Xu:"???"

At this moment, Jia Xu was completely confused. Looking at Liu Xie, who was crying bitterly in his arms, he felt extremely bewildered.

What is going on?

Is this emperor in front of us Liu Xie or Liu Bang?
"Your Majesty, please let me go first..."

Seeing Liu Xie's snot and tears smeared on his luxurious brocade robe, Jia Xu's eyes twitched and he forced a very forced smile.

"No! I don't want it!"

Liu Xie did not let go at all. He looked up at Jia Xu and said with tears in his eyes: "That traitor Cao Cao kidnapped me from Luoyang. I went through so much trouble to get from Xudu to Yecheng. I think about killing this traitor every day!"

"And you, my dear, not only defeated Cao Cao, but also plotted to kill his eldest son! When I heard the news, I was so happy that I couldn't sleep at night!"

"My dear, you are truly the backbone of our Han Dynasty!"

Liu Xie was crying and his feelings were extremely sincere.

He praised Jia Xu to the sky in every word.

Jia Xu finally reacted at this time. With a stiff smile on his face, he broke free from Liu Xie's embrace, took a step back and said, "Your Majesty, you are too serious. It is the duty of a Han official to punish traitors."

"It is just that I failed to fulfill my mission and killed Cao Cao as well. This is my fault. I hope Your Majesty will punish me."

As he said this, Jia Xu bowed deeply to Liu Xie.

Liu Xie wiped the tears from his face and glared at him, "Punish? Who dares to punish me? You have made such an extraordinary contribution, I will reward you generously!"

Liu Xie spoke excitedly as he helped Jia Xu up.

Then he looked at Jia Xu with a loving gaze and asked, "Are you coming to Yecheng to help me restore the Han Dynasty?"

Faced with such a question, Jia Xu could only laugh dryly.

He never expected that the emperor in front of him would not play by the rules at all, completely disrupting everything he had prepared before, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

　It's the third watch, it's a little late, hug you
