Yuan Shao stared at Sun Jian and said in a strange tone,"Brother Wentai, where are you going? Has the fire in Luoyang been extinguished?"
Sun Jian was also an ambitious man, so his acting skills were naturally top-notch.
He covered his shoulder and frowned as he said to the Yuan brothers,"
"Alliance Master Yuan, Brother Lu, my battle injuries have acted up and I need to rest. Today, I'm going to lead my troops back to River East.”
Sun Jian paused for a moment before continuing sincerely,"
"Since I can't contribute to the country, Luoyang can only be handed over to my two brothers. Sun Jian has let down the Imperial Court!“
This performance was superb in both voice and action. He could be called an old artist.
Unfortunately, the Yuan Shao brothers did not buy it.
"Is it really an old injury acting up?" Yuan Shu sneered. Why did I hear that General Sun obtained a supreme treasure?”
"What are you talking about, highway?" Sun Jian asked with a straight face. I've just led my troops into Luoyang. How can I have the time to obtain any treasures?
Yuan Shu was obviously not as shrewd as Sun Jian. He asked directly,"Stop pretending. Did you get the heirloom seal?”
"Jade Seal? What jade seal?"
Sun Jian was confused.
"Wentai!" Yuan Shao advised. You and I have known each other for more than ten years. Listen to my advice. That jade seal is the lifeline of the Han family and represents the imperial court. As a minister of the Han family, you can't hide it privately. Otherwise, how different will you be from that thief Dong?!”
Yuan Shu sneered." Sun Jian, stop pretending to be ignorant. Hand over the Imperial Jade Seal that you took. My Yuan Family will keep it for you. One day, we will return it to the current emperor. Otherwise!" Hmph hmph."
Yuan Shao nodded and continued,"Wentai, why are you and I, the 18 dukes, fighting against thieves? Wasn't it to clear the big man's mind! If you take the jade seal away today, how will the world view us? It sounds nice to say that we are going to punish that thief Dong, but the thief is among us. Isn't this a huge joke?”
Looking at Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, one playing the good cop and the other playing the good cop, the old fox Sun Jian sneered in his heart.
All of them spoke nicely about the country and the Great Han Dynasty, but they still wanted to take it for themselves.
The old artist continued to perform. He hammered his chest and said in a sobbing tone,"Benchu, Gong Lu, the three of us have known each other for more than ten years. Do you really not believe in my character? Do you really want me to dig my heart out? I really don't have the Heirloom Seal!”
It had to be said that this set of performances could be called the best actor.
Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu looked at each other and thought to themselves, Could it be that they had wronged X Literature Station?!
"Wentai, do you dare to swear?" Yuan Shao said coldly.”
Swearing was easier than drinking water for an ambitious man. Sun Jian immediately expressed his stance,
"I didn't take it, so I didn't take it. If I, Sun Jian, get the jade seal, let me die under random arrows in the future!”
Seeing that Sun Jian had sworn a poison oath, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were not willing to go to war with Sun Jian, so they had their subordinates make way for Sun Jian to pass.
Sun Jian had just left, but Yuan Shao was not like this. Yuan Shu was narrow-minded and coveted the Imperial Jade Seal too much, so he looked very angry.
Yang Hong, his advisor, smiled and said,"My lord, this is a small matter. Send someone to inform Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao of Sun Jian's possession of the Imperial Jade Seal. As a relative of the Han clan, how can Liu Biao allow an outsider to obtain it? I expect that Liu Biao will fall out with Sun Jian and take revenge!”
Yuan Shu was delighted to hear this and shouted,"This is a brilliant plan! We'll do as you say!"
As the saying goes, karma is a cycle of retribution. Several years later, Sun Jian really died under his own poison oath and was shot to death by random arrows.
……
In Pingyuan County, Liu Bei and the others had already returned for more than ten days.
Liu Shan had just arrived in this era, so he was naturally curious about everything. He took Zhao Yun and Dian Wei to wander around, having a good time.
On this day, Liu Bei and Guan Zhang were drinking in their residence.
Liu Bei let out a long sigh." I really didn't expect that the rebellion of the 18 vassals would be defeated by Jia Xu with just a few words!"”
Guan Yu stroked his beautiful beard and nodded.""Big Brother is right. Nephew Ah Dou, Third Brother, Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, and I have the courage to fight against ten thousand men. We are not afraid of anyone in the world, but no matter how brave we are, we can't defeat Jia Xu's plan!”
Liu Shan nibbled on a lamb leg and interrupted,"Jia Xu is indeed quite capable, but it's not like there aren't people more awesome than him in the world!"”
Liu Bei said," You make it sound so easy. I'm just a county magistrate now. Although there are many outstanding talents in the world, none of them can be used by me!"”
No one could blame Liu Bei for his disheartening words. In this era, one's birth and family background were very important. No one knew if Liu Bei was the real heir of King Jing of Zhongshan. Moreover, he was just a small county magistrate of Pingyuan County. Who would come to seek refuge with him?
According to the original historical track, whether it was Xu Shu or Zhuge Liang, he was the one who personally invited them. Why? It was all because he, Liu Bei, did not have enough status and influence.
Liu Shan laughed, put down the lamb leg in his hand, stood up, and left.
Everyone was stunned. Liu Bei quickly asked,""Ah Dou, where are you going?"
Liu Shan laughed and said,"If you want a military counselor, I'll go and get one!"”
