Chapter 180 Yuan Shu proclaims himself emperor!
In early September, the autumn harvest is coming to an end.
At the same time, Xuchang University successfully opened its semester.
Those aristocratic families said they were opposed to it, but they didn't hesitate when they entered school.
At the beginning of the school year, two-thirds of the students enrolled in Xuchang School belonged to wealthy families, and only one-third were sons of ordinary people.
The new version of the textbook is printed by the paper mill, and basically everyone has one set.
For ordinary people, it is undoubtedly a great joy to have a set of books when entering school.
For people from aristocratic families, they pay more attention to the contents of the new textbooks.
For a time, discussions about new schools continued for a long time among Xuchang scholars.
After successfully enrolling in Xuchang School, Xi Yu's gaze turned back.
Until September 13th.
The entire autumn harvest in Yanzhou and Xuzhou has ended.
The food and fodder that Cao Cao's army went out for the expedition had almost been confiscated.
At that time, Cao Cao did not hesitate at all. After he had enough food and grass, he immediately announced the Western Expedition, hoping to attack the ministers who disrespected the court.
Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan were transferred by Cao Cao to garrison in Xuzhou. During this expedition, Cao Ren was transferred back.
Because Xi Yu's heavy supply camp separated from Cao's army, Cao Cao specially ordered Cao Chun to take on the important task of escorting grain and grass.
On that day, September 17, Cao Cao hurriedly led his army westwards.
After receiving the news that Cao Cao was leading troops on an expedition, Xi Yu didn't have much reaction.
He had already reminded Cao Cao before.
However, Lao Cao did not take Yuan Shu's matter to heart after all.
After all, Xi Yu did not persuade Cao Cao to go westward.
This time Cao Cao led 200,000 troops, intending to advance to Sili and occupy the territory of Tuhanei.
The 200,000-strong army was huge. Cao Cao had already learned the lessons he learned in Wancheng, and his troops were much more orderly this time.
After Cao Cao's march went smoothly, Xi Yu no longer cared about him. After withdrawing his attention from the school, Xi Yu used the spies under Xi Zhicai to focus on Yuan Shu in Shouchun.
I don't know whether Yuan Shu didn't think about spreading the news of becoming emperor to the world immediately, or whether the entire Shouchun was closely guarded.
What surprised Xi Yu was that there was still no clear news from Yuan Shu.
On the other hand, Xuchang's spies learned that Lu Bu went south from Bingzhou, passed through Hanoi, and then passed through Sili, when he was approaching Yuan Shu from Jingzhou.
On the way, he had a fight with Zhang Xiu.
It seems that because Lu Bu led 20,000 Xiliang troops and looked menacing, even the Jingzhou family, including Liu Biao, and Zhang Xiu were a little nervous.
There had been almost no communication between the two sides, so Zhang Xiu took the lead in attacking Lu Bu in the wild.
Fortunately, Lu Bu's ability to lead the army was still outstanding, and Zhang Xiu's sneak attack did not have any effect.
But this battle also caused the land of Jingzhou to become turbulent.
At the same time, although Lu Bu lost a lot of time because of this, his confidence also increased a lot after this battle.
However, Jingzhou was not a place to stay after all. After the fight with Zhang Xiu, Lu Bu finally sent an envoy to inform Liu Biao, Zhang Xiu and others.
He said that this was just a way, and he had no plans to move to Jingzhou.
Although Liu Biao and others did not believe this, they did not start another war.
Lu Bu continued to lead his troops and horses and began to pass through Jingzhou in a swagger, heading straight into Yuan Shu's territory.
Just as Lu Bu was walking towards Yuan Shu's location in a hurry.
It was within Shouchun at that time.
Yuan Shu's subordinate Zhang Xun once again petitioned Yuan Shu to proclaim himself emperor.
This is already the third time this time.
Within the government office, all of Yuan Shu's subordinates already understood Yuan Shu's purpose.
Although Yan Xiang and others are not optimistic about Yuan Shu, the other party is the lord, and they cannot decide anything on behalf of the other party.
That day, inside the Shouchun Yamen Office.
"I am here to invite my lord to ascend the throne!"
Led by Bo Li Feng, the leader of Yuan Shu, after Yuan Shu asked three times and refused three times, a group of confidants once again asked Yuan Shu to ascend the throne.
After seeing everyone under his command kneeling on the ground, Yuan Shu's face was filled with joy and he responded directly.
"I understand what you are saying. Since the destiny is mine, I shall inherit it!"
Yuan Shu nodded, his name had changed.
"This time, since I have ascended the throne, I should establish a national title and appoint hundreds of officials..."
On that day, after three invitations and three rejections, Yuan Shu happily ascended the throne and called himself the Zhong family.
For the first time, he made the prefect of Jiujiang the Huainan Yin, the place of Shouchun as the imperial capital, appointed hundreds of officials, worshiped heaven and earth in the suburbs according to the emperor's rites, and ascended the throne of the emperor.
And this time he ascended the throne, the momentum was huge.
Everyone in Shouchun who knew a little bit often cursed at Yuan Shu behind his back.
After all, the news of proclaiming the emperor could not be concealed. Throughout Shouchun, the news began to spread crazily throughout the states and counties of the Han Dynasty like scattered flowers.
Two days later.
Inside the Xuchang Theater House.
Xi Zhicai handed the received message to Xi Yu beside him, with a strange look on his face.
"Yuan Shu has proclaimed himself emperor!"
After Xi Yu saw the spy's letter, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Even though the butterfly flapped its wings because of him, some things still didn't change much after all.
Yuan Shu still proclaimed himself emperor within this year, although the time was delayed a bit.
However, what was supposed to happen eventually happened.
The news that Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor was like a heavy blow to the entire Han Dynasty.
"As A Yu said before, Yuan Shu really became emperor!"
Xi Zhicai's mood was a little subtle. When he learned from his younger brother that Yuan Shu might do something rebellious, he still didn't believe it.
After all, Yuan Shu's power is actually like that now.
Compared with the princes in the world, Yuan Shu is still somewhat underwhelmed in front of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.
There must be something wrong with the other party's brain, so he would choose to proclaim himself emperor!
Even if there was something wrong with Yuan Shu's mind, it was difficult for his ministers to allow him to act like this.
Although the power of the Han Dynasty now exists in name only, the four hundred years of Han Dynasty still have some influence in the eyes of the common people and scholars in the world.
This influence is not obvious on the surface.
But just as Dong Zhuo is good at power, once there are signs, the world will focus on him.
Even Dong Zhuo did not dare to act rebelliously at that time.
He only dared to depose the emperor and establish a new emperor.
However, who would have thought that under such circumstances, Yuan Shu would quietly proclaim himself emperor in Shouchun today.
A series of measures including the national title have been taken.
This is not just about splitting the earth and conferring a kingship. This is directly telling the entire Han Dynasty that from today on, I no longer belong to the Han Dynasty and I want to be the emperor.
Xi Zhicai is a bit funny.
Regarding Yuan Shu's act of proclaiming himself emperor, he only found it a bit unbelievable.
In the final analysis, the other party's proclaiming himself emperor did not bring any substantial changes to the princes everywhere.
"Now that Yuan Shu is proclaimed emperor, and His Majesty is in Xuchang, Cao Cao, as Sikong, and I, as the current Lieutenant, cannot ignore this matter!"
"Logically speaking, if we want to fight against rebellion, Yuan Shu is the top traitor in the imperial court today!"
Xi Yu said casually, and Xi Zhi next to him understood immediately.
No wonder his younger brother told Cao Cao not to rush out to fight and prepare to attack Yuan Shu!
Now, Yuan Shu has just proclaimed himself emperor, and Cao Cao has already led his army into the west.
As for such matters, Cao Cao, as the great Han Sikong, could not ignore it.
He must choose to attack Yuan Shu as soon as possible, otherwise how will the world view him.
This westward march will probably be a wasted trip and will be difficult to achieve.
"Ayu, how are you going to deal with it!"
Xi Zhicai raised his eyes and glanced at Xi Yu.
Hearing this, Xi Yu shook his head.
Now there are already signs of conflict between him and Cao Ying.
Although Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, he, as a prince of the dynasty, was exactly what he should express.
But Xi Yu didn't want to do anything.
Once he expressed something, those under Cao Cao didn't know what to think. Even if Cao Cao didn't say it openly, he would still have some grudges in his heart.
"Just wait and see what happens!"
Xi Yu said casually, and then looked at Xi Zhicai again: "Did brother pass the news to Meng De?"
"After receiving the news, I sent someone to send it over quickly. I think he will know it not long after it arrives!"
Xi Zhicai also somewhat agreed with Xi Yu's idea of not doing anything.
After his brother was promoted to Taiwei, Xi Zhicai felt it to some extent.
Some things are no longer like the situation they had in Yanzhou!
…
Only then did Xi Yu and Xi Zhi prepare to wait and see what would happen.
In the Han Palace at that time, the bronze crane next to Liu Xie's seat was kicked to the ground.
"Traitor, traitor!"
Liu Xie opened his mouth and shouted.
After receiving the news that Yuan Shu had proclaimed himself emperor, the first thing he felt was not anger, but panic.
A feeling of panic rising from the soles of my feet to the top of my head.
Liu Xie originally thought that people like Dong Zhuo, Li Jue, Guo Si, and Cao Cao had gone too far.
These people regard him, the emperor of Han Dynasty, as a puppet.
However, what Liu Xie didn't expect was that Yuan Shu didn't even care about him, the apparent emperor.
proclaim oneself emperor.
Today, the Han Dynasty has not yet perished, and the name of the imperial court still exists in various places.
No matter how powerful the princes from various places were, they still wanted to respect the Han Dynasty.
However, now he actually heard someone claiming to be emperor.
He proclaimed himself emperor without any warning, saying that he had inherited the destiny of the Han Dynasty.
It's really arrogant.
After the panic, a surge of anger arose in Liu Xie's heart. He couldn't suppress this anger, but he couldn't find any way to express it.
At that time, the sound of smashing resounded throughout the Han Palace.
At the same time, it was not just Liu Xie and others.
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, who were in Wu County, also received the news of Yuan Shu's proclaimed emperor immediately.
Yuan Shu even sent an envoy to deliver a message to Sun Ce personally, along with a reward.
Seeing this situation, Sun Ce immediately refused.
He thought that Yuan Shu did not take the Han Dynasty seriously, but what Sun Ce did not expect was that Yuan Shu would be so arrogant.
proclaim oneself emperor!
This kind of thing is a bit unbelievable.
"Gong Jin, Yuan Jiujiu, he, he actually proclaimed himself emperor!"
To be honest, Sun Ce's emotions were a bit complicated at this time.
Proclaim yourself emperor!
This is something that many people have thought about in their dreams. Even he is no exception. However, some things are only thought about in dreams.
Although today's Han Dynasty is extremely declining, the imperial court is still established in name.
In this situation, becoming emperor is not seeking death.
He couldn't figure out why Yuan Shu made such a decision. Could it be because he offered the jade seal?
"Bo Fu, this is a good opportunity!"
Zhou Yu glanced at Sun Ce.
Although the news that Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor was somewhat surprising, for them, this happened to be a good opportunity.
With Yuan Shu proclaiming himself emperor, Sun Ce could completely separate himself from the other party in terms of righteousness.
From then on, there was no need to take Yuan Shu into consideration.
At the same time, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce thought more or less the same thing. The reason why Yuan Shu became emperor must be related to the jade seal.
Thinking of the time when he and Sun Ce went to Xuchang, Xi Yu directly pointed out this point.
That seemed to mean asking Sun Ce to hand over the jade seal to Yuan Shu.
And now, Yuan Shu has proclaimed himself emperor under such circumstances. I don’t know if Fengyi expected that.
If it had been expected a long time ago, and if the other party was even behind it, then how deep was Xi Fengyi's thoughts?
Zhou Yu didn't dare to think too much.
Now that Yuan Shu is proclaimed emperor, the most important thing for them is to completely separate from Yuan Shu.
Sun Ce also understood.
He first wrote a letter to Yuan Shu, stating that he should turn around and then go to Wujun to declare his break with Yuan Shu.
…
Hebei, Yecheng.
As soon as Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, he sent an envoy directly to Yecheng, where Yuan Shao was located.
The envoy made it clear that if Yuan Shao was willing to surrender to his majesty, Yuan Shu was willing to treat Yuan Shao with the courtesy of a prime minister.
Hearing this, Yuan Shao was about to explode with anger.
What does Yuan Shu mean by that? That guy has been tit for tat with him before, and now that he is the emperor, he is also mocking him secretly.
Above the mansion in Yecheng.
Yuan Shao waved his hand and tore the letter from Yuan Shu to him into pieces. At this time, all the civil and military personnel under his command had also learned the news that Yuan Shu had proclaimed himself emperor.
Regarding this situation, Yan Liang Wen Chou, Tian Feng Guo Tu and others did not care about it.
In their view, the Han Dynasty had indeed ceased to exist in name only.
However, the news that Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor still made everyone feel a little unhappy.
The reason why they took refuge in Yuan Shao was because they valued the reputation of the fourth and third sons of the Yuan family.
"My lord, Yuan Shu dares to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor in a mere continent, while my lord sits on the four continents of the Han Dynasty and has hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers!"
"If someone wants to inherit the destiny of the Han Dynasty, it should be my Lord!"
Guo Tu remonstrated and demoted Yuan Shu as worthless.
After hearing this, Yuan Shao's expression improved a little.
That's right, Yuan Shu is not as talented as Yangzhou, and he only takes half of Yuzhou with him.
With just this small amount of territory, that boy dared to proclaim himself emperor, and he didn’t know what the other party was thinking.
However, after Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor with this skill, Yuan Shao's heart became hot.
You must know that he is now the most powerful prince in the Han Dynasty.
His subordinates occupied Bingzhou, Jizhou, Youzhou, Qingzhou and the surrounding areas.
Among them, Jizhou is rich in products and sufficient food and grass. Although there was the Yellow Turban Rebellion before, it has recovered early now.
Although Yuan Shao now doesn't take Han Ting seriously at all, he even contacted Yuan Shu with the intention of establishing a new emperor because of Emperor Xuchang some time ago.
However, now he has not even decided on the candidate for the new emperor.
Who knew that Yuan Shu would become emperor like this?
Now that he is sitting in the surrounding areas, he does not directly proclaim himself emperor. Instead, he wants to imitate Cao Cao and worship an emperor. Why does he, Yuan Shu, dare to do so slowly?
"My lord, I would like to ask my lord to ascend the throne immediately!"
"Lord, we will conquer the world for you!"
At this time, Yuan Shao's face was calm, but each of his generals could no longer stand.
As Chun Yuqiong spoke first, Yan Liang and others beside him also followed suit and bowed to the ground, and directly asked Yuan Shao to follow him and ascend the throne.
Yuan Shao felt happy and subconsciously wanted to agree.
However, he still glanced at Tian Feng, Xu You and others on the left.
The generals were asking him to follow him to the throne, but Xu You and others did not speak directly.
Yuan Shao fell to the ground and was not a decisive person like Yuan Shu. At this time, he saw that none of the counselors were in a hurry to speak, so he subconsciously focused on a few of them.
He saw Yuan Shao looking at him and others.
Xu You took the lead and stepped out.
"My lord, Xu You sees that the world is in chaos, and the princes in all counties in the world have three choices.
The first is to support the Han Dynasty, the second is to usurp the Han Dynasty and stand on its own feet, and the third is to usurp the Han Dynasty to stand on its own feet in the name of supporting the Han Dynasty, but secretly usurp the Han Dynasty to stand on its own feet!
Yuan Shu was eager for quick success, and this time he openly usurped the Han Dynasty and established himself. This was a stupid move. This move would definitely lead to disaster. "
"And my lord has always been far-sighted and far-sighted. This time he should adopt the method of self-improvement, observe the times and wait for changes, and take advantage of others before they strike. This is what the lord should do!"
As Xu You opened his mouth, there were advisers beside him who echoed his words.
"My lord, it is human nature for a group of generals to want to be the founding heroes and leave a name in history!"
"However, although the Han Dynasty is weak now, and although the princes in various places are claiming hegemony, the Han Dynasty has not been completely defeated, and it is not the time for the main country to proclaim emperor.
Just like the peach fruit on the tree, the fruit is not ripe before the time comes. "
"Yuan Shu is eager to pick the fruits of the Han Dynasty, and his hands are bound to be full of thorns. The gains outweigh the losses!"
"This move will definitely make the princes in the world furious, and they will lead their troops to attack!"
"As I expected, it could take as short as a few months or as long as two or three years, Yuan Shu will be destroyed!"
After saying this, Tian Feng on the side also stood up.
"My lord, Yuan Shu brazenly proclaimed himself emperor. You don't need to be angry about this. This is not a bad thing for you. It may be a good thing, especially!"
As soon as Tian Feng finished speaking, Yuan Shao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Yuan Shu has already made me a vassal, what good thing can it be?
"Oh, I wonder what Yuan Hao's opinion is on this matter?"
