Chapter 57 Princess Dawn
Jizhou Yangping

"My lord, Zhang Lan and Ding Yuan are in dire straits now, and Ding Yuan is located on the west side. Why don't we make an appointment with Zhang Lan and join forces to attack Ding Yuan and take advantage of the opportunity to develop?" Feng Ji, one of Yuan Shao's main advisers, spoke. Yuan Shao also trusted him, but it seemed that his relationship with the other counselors was not harmonious.

Yuan Shao had five advisers, namely Ju Shou, Tian Feng, Shen Pei, Feng Ji, and Xu You.

Jushou was Yuan Shao's most valued counselor, and the main strategic direction was formulated by Jushou and Yuan Shao made the final decision.

When Jushou heard Feng Ji's words, he lowered his head and thought for a while, but turned to look at Tian Feng without speaking.

Tian Feng is straightforward, he can't hold back things in his heart, he doesn't care if it hurts your face, he said directly to Yuan Shao, "My lord, this matter may not be right, Zhang Lan is a generation of tigers and wolves, if he associates with him, he may be killed." As a counterattack, it is better to make a distant relationship with Gongsun Zan and send an army northward to conquer the land of Youzhou in order to seek hegemony."

"Gongsun Zan is not a jackal anymore? Gongsun Zan is far away from us, but Ding Yuan and Zhang Lan are close at hand. Why do we sacrifice our own strength by seeking far away?" Feng Ji felt that Tian Feng had taken away his face, although he also felt that Tian Fung's scheme works, but he still opens his mouth to defend himself.

Yuan Shao was also in a dilemma, looking at Jushou.

Yuan Shao's gaze naturally fell on Jushou's, and he knew it was time for him to play.

"My lord, now Zhang Lan is strong and our army is weak, so we can't fight him head-on. Now that Ding Yuan is the shield, we can be safe and secure. If Ding Yuan is defeated, we will be Zhang Lan's next target. Now Xianbei is watching Gongsun Zan's side, and the interior is not stable, so it is better to communicate with Gongsun Zan first and send his army northward, and then recover the territory of Youzhou, then relying on Youzhou and Hebei, he will have the strength to contend with Zhang Lan."

"That's it." Yuan Shao slapped the table abruptly, startling everyone. He was about to give an order when someone came to report that an angel from Luoyang had come.

"Angel?" Yuan Shao snorted coldly, "Hmph, it must be what Zhang Lan's son meant, no see, drag it down and cut it off."

"Wait a minute, my lord, no!" Everyone wanted to retort (except Feng Ji, of course), but Tian Feng took the lead, "This envoy is Zhang Lan's intention, but it is the emperor's edict. If the lord beheads his envoy, It is a big failure to go against the world, and the people will not agree."

Yuan Shao looked at Jushou, and seeing Jushou nodded, he continued, "Hmph, then let him in."

The angel came in with the attendants, held up the edict and said, "Here is the edict of the Son of Heaven, why don't you bow down?"

Jushou gave Yuan Shao a wink, and Yuan Shao bowed down reluctantly.

"Ding Yuan conspired against the Han with the intention of disrupting the Han. Today, he named Yuan Shao the Inspector of Jizhou, the General of the Hussars, and commanded his soldiers and horses to fight against the rebels. To show off the might of the great Han, I respect you."

Yuan Shao quickly calculated in his mind that he didn't get up, and everyone saw that their lord didn't get up, so naturally they couldn't get up either.

This time, the angel’s name is Guo Pian and his character is Maofang. He is Guo Tu’s cousin. Guo Tu's character is Gongze, Guo Pian's character is Maofang, once Zhang Lan misunderstood the characters, and recognized Guo Tu's characters as Gong's characters. She didn't know how to pronounce Guo Tu's characters until she visited Guo Tu in person. At this time, Guo Pian Zhang Lan reminded Zhang Lan of this brand name again, a public toilet, a hut, the two brothers are also dead.

Some digressions, let's get down to business

Seeing Yuan Shao kneeling down, Guo Pian frowned and said, "Inspector Yuan, accept the order."

After hearing what he said, Yuan Shao didn't say much, took the imperial decree without any politeness, and read it again.

Guo Pian was a little angry when he saw this, but after all, it was his territory, so it was not easy to get angry.

"Prime Minister Zhang asked me to give a message to Inspector Yuan. Bingzhou has a huge territory. The Prime Minister is short of manpower recently. He can't manage it by himself. He wants to hand over Xinxing and Leping to the Inspector."

A gleam of light flashed in Yuan Shao's eyes, and it was fleeting, and did not let others see "I see, come here, arrange for the angel to stay"

After ordering people to send Guo Pian away, Ju Shou took the lead and said, "My lord, if this is the case, it is feasible."

The rest of the people nodded in silence.

Seeing everyone's attitude, Yuan Shao had no other opinions, not to mention that Zhang Lan's offer was indeed generous.

Without further discussion, Yuan Shao directly ordered the army to be assembled and obey orders at any time.

In Luoyang City, in the Prime Minister's Mansion

"Husband, don't worry, sit down and have a rest. If you turn around, Chan'er will feel a little dizzy." Diao Chan said to Zhang Lan with some resentment

The expression on Zhang Lan's face was a bit complicated and pleasantly surprised.There are expectations, worries, etc., and expressions representing different meanings are presented on his face at the same time.

"I can't sit down, Yu'er is about to give birth, and I can't rest easy"

Yes, Dong Yu is about to give birth, so much time has passed before he knows it, Zhang Lan is also the first time to be a father after all, standing outside the door anxiously walking back and forth, still muttering "If my son Let’s call her Liming, and my daughter will call her Chenxi, what’s a good name?”

Seeing Zhang Lan like this, Diao Chan couldn't help laughing coquettishly. Zhang Lan felt a little embarrassed by Diao Chan's smile, yes, she was too excited.

"My lord, Mr. Guo is back." Dian Wei came to Zhang Lan to report regardless of the situation.
Zhang Lan didn't want to pay attention, and said by herself, "Let him wait."

"Wow~~~Wow~~Wow~~~~" The crying of the baby resounded in everyone's ears, Zhang Lan was overjoyed, and was about to push the door in immediately, but was stopped by Diao Chan, "Husband, don't worry, that's it!" coming out"

As soon as the voice fell, the door slowly opened, and the midwife came out, "Prime Minister, it's a daughter"

The midwife said submissively, she was afraid that the prime minister in front of her would be angry with her when she heard that her daughter was unhappy.

Something unexpected happened to everyone, and Zhang Lan burst out laughing, "Hahaha, okay, daughter, it's my father's close-fitting little padded jacket, my little Chenxi, let daddy hug her."

Zhang Lan took her daughter clumsily, smiling from ear to ear.

Diaochan was afraid that Zhang Lan would drop her daughter, so she hurried forward to ask for Chenxi.

"Husband, is Chenxi the name of this little guy?"

Zhang Lan nodded, "Well, Chenxi will be her baby name from now on, my little princess Chenxi, oh yes, tomorrow I will go to ask for a title from His Majesty, so that our little princess can become a real princess."

Despite the excitement, Zhang Lan still did not forget Dong Yu, and went into the house to accompany Dong Yu again.

Early the next morning, Zhang Lan came to the palace, and directly asked Liu Bian for the title of Princess Xi, and Zhang Lan cheerfully began to teach Liu Bian the last lesson.
