Can I get to the other side?

Yuan Ci was so impressive that he no longer concealed his ambitions.

Ever since Sun Jian died and he received the Imperial Seal from Madam Wu, the idea of ​​proclaiming himself emperor began to take root in his mind.

The Yuan family is the most powerful family in the world, and he is the direct son of the Yuan family. Now they have ruled Yangzhou, which is the most prosperous in the world, with many soldiers and generals, and in their hands are important national weapons such as the jade seal passed down from the country.

If he is not the emperor, who can be the emperor?

The reason why he chose to speak out his ambition now was because he really couldn't stand Yuan Shao riding on his head.

You are using the name of Emperor, right?

Then I will proclaim myself emperor directly! Become the emperor!

Yuan Shu suppressed the fervor in his heart and said to everyone: "Now the Liu family has declined and the world is in chaos. The four generations of our Yuan family have been important ministers in the court and have a great reputation. They are the most important surname in the world. The people are willing to join me."

"I want to uphold God's will and comply with the people's will. I will ascend the throne and proclaim myself emperor now. What do you think?"

All the civil servants and military generals looked at me and I looked at you, but they were silent.

How to answer? How do they answer this?

Whether it's okay or not, it's not appropriate.

The most important thing is that since Yuan Shu chose to express his idea of ​​proclaiming himself emperor, he must have made up his mind. Is it useful for them to oppose it?

Just when Yuan Shu thought everyone acquiesced, Yan Xiang suddenly spoke.

"Lord! You must not do this!"

Yan Xiang's face was full of worry, and he advised earnestly: "In those days, the Zhou people, from their ancestor Houji to King Wen, accumulated great virtues and merits. It can be said that they have two points of the three-thirds of the world, but they still cautiously made the Yin and Shang dynasties I, my ministers, dare not be self-reliant.”

"My lord, although you have been a high-ranking official and well-paid, the Yuan family is probably not as prosperous as the Ji family. Moreover, although the Han Dynasty is declining now, the emperor is not an unruly and cowardly king, and he cannot be compared with the cruel and unruly King Zhou of Yin. The people of the world still support Han.”

"Under such circumstances, if you choose to ascend the throne and proclaim yourself emperor, wouldn't you risk the disapproval of the world and become the target of public criticism?"

With Yan Xiang taking the lead, others have a backbone.

Yang Hong also followed up and said: "Yes, my lord, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have the emperor in their hands, and they dare not seize the throne. If you establish yourself as emperor, you will be jealous of all the princes."

It is not a secret that my lord has the ambition to become emperor.

In other words, heroes from all walks of life basically have this idea.

But where there is ambition, there is ambition. Who dares to really claim to be emperor now? The Han Dynasty was only in decline, but it was not dead.

As Yan Xiang said, during the four hundred years of rule by the Han Dynasty, people's hearts have turned to the Han Dynasty, and the current emperor has done nothing wrong, so what reason can he use to proclaim himself emperor? The name is fundamentally incorrect and the words are inconsistent.

Yuan Shu was a little angry when he heard this: "Because they don't deserve it!"

"I am the legitimate son of the Yuan family, Yuan Shao is just a concubine, and Cao Cao is a eunuch, how can they compare with me?"

"What's more, I have the imperial seal in my hand, which shows that destiny is mine!"

"I, the Yuan family, come from the lineage of Chen Hugong, a Miao descendant of Emperor Shun. I happen to inherit the "earth virtue" of the Han Dynasty's "fire virtue". Using earth to inherit fire is the right thing to do."

"Have you ever heard the prophecy that those who came to Han Dynasty should be Tu Gaohu? My name is "High Road", which corresponds to this prophecy!"

Yuan Shu was convinced that he had the emperor's destiny.

Just because when he was born, someone had a divination for him, saying that he would be destined to be blessed by destiny. Later, he received the jade seal passed down from the country, which further confirmed this.

He, Yuan Shu, is the one chosen by fate!

"But my lord..."

Yan Xiang wanted to continue to persuade, but Yuan Shu was tired of it.

"How can you achieve great things if you are so timid?"

After leaving these words, Yuan Shu left angrily. It was obvious that he was quite dissatisfied with everyone's opposition to his proclaimed emperor.

After Yuan Shu left, Yang Hong asked Yan Xiang worriedly: "Master Yan, what should I do now?"

"My lord has made up his mind, and I am afraid he will not give up the idea of ​​proclaiming himself emperor easily. But with the current situation in the world, if my lord proclaims himself emperor, he will be the target of public criticism."

"We must find a way to stop the Lord."

Yan Xiang looked sad when he heard this.

advise? How to persuade? How to persuade?

The temptation to become emperor is too great. How many people can resist it? Coupled with being so stimulated by Yuan Shao today, my lord's desire to become emperor can no longer be suppressed. .

"The only thing I can do is write a letter asking for help."

After thinking about it, Yan Xiang thought of a way.

Yang Hong wondered: "Who can I ask for help?"

Yan Xiang said in a deep voice: "Sun Ce!"

After Sun Jian's death, his sons and family members still served under Yuan Shu. Sun Ce was one of them, and he was even worse than his father.

With just a few thousand troops, they actually captured the four counties of Jiangdong!

Now Sun Ce is guarding Kuaiji County and is highly regarded by Yuan Shu, so Yan Xiang wants to write to him and ask him to advise Yuan Shu.

…

Yuan Shu returned to his palace angrily, lost his temper, and smashed many objects in the palace.

"Shu Zi! A group of Shu Zi! So unambitious!"

"Why can't I claim the title of emperor? If I claim the title of emperor, they will all be ministers of the dragon! Why are they still opposing me?"

Yuan Shu smashed it hard and vented his anger. He sat panting in the messy bedroom and slowly raised his head to look at the table not far away.

I saw a square piece of jade seal placed on the table.

A ray of moonlight just shines on it through the window lattice, making the entire jade seal look radiant and full of holiness and solemnity.

It's a pity that a corner of this jade seal is missing, so I used gold to make up for it.

And this is the imperial seal!

The jade seal that represents destiny and orthodoxy!

"Jade Seal, my national jade seal!"

Yuan Shu stared at the jade seal with a look of longing on his face. He crawled to the table, carefully held the jade seal high with both hands, and pointed it at the bright moon outside the window.

The jade seal seems to be integrated with the bright moon, which is extremely beautiful.

"If you receive orders from Heaven, you will live forever..."

Yuan Shu's eyes were full of obsession, he carefully touched the patterns on the jade seal and the eight characters carved underneath, and murmured to himself.

These eight words were like a magic voice that kept ringing in his heart.

"I have the imperial seal, and I am the emperor!"

Yuan Shu's eyes were firm, and he turned around suddenly and shouted outside: "Come here! Call Zhang Kun over here!"

"Yes! Lord!"

Not long after, an old Taoist with gray hair wearing Taoist robes was brought to Yuan Shu's palace by the guards.

Yuan Shu held the jade seal with one hand and grabbed the veteran by the collar with the other. He stared at him and asked, "You said I had the emperor's destiny, didn't you lie to me?"

At this time, Zhang Kun was already frightened. He looked at Yuan Shu whose eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, fearing that if he said no, Yuan Shu would smash the jade seal on his head the next moment.

Zhang Kui was trembling all over and nodded desperately: "Yes! Yes! According to the hexagrams, my lord, you do have the destiny of being emperor! It's just..."

"Hahahaha! I have the destiny of the emperor! I have the destiny of the emperor!"

Yuan Shu laughed loudly and happily. He hugged the jade seal and couldn't put it down. He screamed like crazy in the palace.

Looking at Yuan Shu who had fallen into madness, Zhang Fei turned pale, hesitated for a moment, and decided not to say the next part.

My lord, you do have the destiny to be emperor, but...

Very short.
