Can I get to the other side?

"Regret? The thing I regret most in my life is that I shouldn't have listened to Ju Su's words and supported you as the emperor!"

"If you want to kill me, kill me now!"

Yuan Shao's voice rose, his eyes were sharp.

He was ready to die!

However, Liu Xie sneered: "You want to die, how can it be so easy? I will take you back to Yecheng and let you experience the taste of Yuan Shu's parade!"

"Let the people take a good look at the world's role model Yuan Benchu ​​as a prisoner, so that everyone in the world will know that the Yuan family has produced two traitors!"

"You dare!"

Yuan Shao's face changed suddenly, and he cursed directly: "Liu Xie! You despicable villain! Without me, you wouldn't have everything you have now! How can you humiliate me like this!"

Killing is just a way to get out of trouble. He is not afraid of death, but his pride does not allow him to be humiliated like this!

This is even more uncomfortable than killing him!

"Take him away!"

Liu Xie didn't waste any words with him. He waved his sleeves expressionlessly. The guards standing by immediately stepped forward and took Yuan Shao out of the study.

Yuan Shao was still cursing: "You want to make me surrender with this? Dream on! I will never surrender even if I die..."

The curse gradually faded away.

Liu Xie looked indifferent and said to Gao Lan: "Pass the order down. Three days later, set off to return to Yecheng!"

"Yes!"

...

Bingzhou, Jinyang City.

Ma Chao and Han Sui's army had evacuated from outside the city, but Guo Yuan was not happy about it at all. Instead, he felt extremely painful.

Because he knew why Ma Chao and Han Sui retreated, it was only because of the news from Jizhou that Yuan Shao was defeated in Hejian and captured alive!

The mission of Ma Chao and Han Sui was to delay his troops. Now that the war was over, they chose to retreat.

"My Lord, I am incompetent!" Guo Yuan drank a jar of wine, talking to himself while crying, his face full of pain and self-blame. He never thought that because he did not lead the troops to rush to help, Yuan Shao was not only defeated, but also captured. If he had known this, he would have gone to help even if he fought to the death with Ma Chao and Han Sui, even if only one in ten of the troops could rush out in the end! But there is no if in the world. No matter how much he regrets now, the fact that Yuan Shao was captured cannot be changed. He is the sinner who caused the defeat. "Ton ton ton ton--" Guo Yuan raised his head and drank a big sip of wine, then stumbled to his feet, came to the sword on the shelf, and pulled it out. Maybe he should... die to apologize. Guo Yuan closed his eyes and slowly put the sword on his neck. He felt the coldness coming from the sword, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, ready to wipe it off. "General! Good news! Good--"

"General, what are you doing?!"

At this moment, a voice full of surprise came from outside the house, and Guo Yuan's deputy general ran into the house excitedly.

But when he saw Guo Yuan holding the sword across his neck, he was immediately shocked, and without saying a word, he flew forward and kicked Guo Yuan hard!

This sudden kick directly kicked Guo Yuan out, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground.

"You are so presumptuous!"

Guo Yuan grinned in pain, and after getting up from the ground, he looked at the deputy general angrily and cursed: "I want to die to apologize to the lord! Why did you stop me!"

"General, please forgive me!"

The deputy general knelt down directly, with a bitter face, saying: "I was anxious for a moment and was rude just now... And general, don't rush to commit suicide, there is good news!"

"What good news, the lord is out of trouble?"

Guo Yuan frowned and asked, the only news he wanted to hear now was this, and nothing else was good news.

The deputy general shook his head quickly, and then said: "It was General Tian who brought the young master from Youzhou, and they have entered the city now!"

"Young master?"

Guo Yuan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't remember who the young master was that the deputy general was talking about. After a long time, he suddenly remembered and asked uncertainly: "Are you talking about the youngest son of the lord, the young master Yuan Mai?"

"That's right!"

The deputy general nodded repeatedly.

Guo Yuan was overjoyed, grabbed the deputy general's shoulders and asked anxiously: "Where are General Tian and the young master, take me there quickly!"

The reason why he wanted to commit suicide was that Yuan Shao was captured alive, and basically he couldn't survive; and two of his three sons died, and the remaining one had severed the father-son relationship. Even if he wanted to be loyal, he couldn't find a target, so he could only die to atone for his sins.

But he forgot that there was a young master!

Although this young master was born out of wedlock and was still young, he was Yuan Shao's blood anyway, so he was worth his loyalty.

He had a goal to live in his life!

Led by the deputy general, Guo Yuan went all the way to the hall of the prefect's mansion, where Tian Feng and two generals, Zhao Rui and Sui Yuanjin, were already waiting.

In addition, there was a child who looked only seven or eight years old standing next to Tian Feng, holding his hand, with a timid look on his face.

It was Yuan Shao's youngest son, Yuan Mai!

Guo Yuan did not hesitate, and knelt on one knee directly in front of Yuan Mai, and saluted: "I am Guo Yuan, the last general, and I meet the young master!"

Yuan Mai was startled and hid behind Tian Feng.

He only timidly showed half of his head.

Tian Feng said to Guo Yuan: "General Guo, the young master is still young, don't scare him, and keep your voice down."

Guo Yuan couldn't help but look embarrassed when he heard this.

Tian Feng sighed and said nothing more. He sent Yuan Mai to the main seat and then sat down with everyone else.

He said to Guo Yuan: "The lord has been captured and his life or death is unknown. There are too few soldiers in Yicheng, so I brought the young master to join you."

"Have Ma Chao and Han Sui's troops withdrawn?"

Guo Yuan looked depressed and nodded: "They withdrew after the news of the lord's defeat came. It was too late for me to send troops to help... This time the lord was defeated and captured, most of the blame is mine, please punish me."

Tian Feng said: "This is not your fault. I have advised the lord to give up Hejian County before, but the lord insisted on his own way, which eventually led to Leading to such a result. "

"At present, the life and death of the lord is uncertain, and it is meaningless to talk about whether he is guilty or not. The most important thing is to protect the young master and determine what to do next. "

A trace of cruelty flashed in Guo Yuan's eyes, and he said with murderous intent: "Supervisor, in my opinion, you might as well gather all the troops to rescue the lord!"

"The army of that villain Lu Bu has just experienced a tragic war in Hejian County. If we kill him, he will definitely not be able to resist!"

"Maybe we can rescue the lord!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Rui and Sui Yuanjin were eager to try.

But Tian Feng's face became stern.

"Nonsense! Let alone whether the lord is alive or dead now, even if he is still alive, if you lead the troops to fight, wouldn't it force Lu Bu to attack the lord? And now it is winter, how to march and fight?"

"The troops in your hands are the last bit of the lord's family assets. If they are all lost, what should the young master do?"

Tian Feng scolded Guo Yuan.

Hearing this, Guo Yuan had to give up this idea unwillingly and said dejectedly: "But military supervisor, 30,000 soldiers and horses are not enough."

"When Lu Bu reorganizes the army and joins Ma Chao and Han Sui to attack Bingzhou from the front and back, how can we resist? It's just waiting to die."

Bingzhou's current situation is not good. There are wolves in front and tigers behind, and it is facing the situation of being attacked from the front and back at any time.

The situation is not optimistic.

Tian Feng said calmly: "First send a message to Yizhou and let General Gao Gan lead the troops back. As for how to break the situation, I have my own way."

Of course, he knew what Guo Yuan said.

However, on the way here, he had thought of a way to break the situation. In his opinion, if he wanted to break the situation, he had to start with Ma Chao and Han Sui.

It's just that it's not convenient to say it now.

"Yes!"

Tian Feng is a military supervisor and a trusted adviser of Yuan Shao. Guo Yuan and others will not have any objections to his words and agree one after another.

...

On the other side

After leaving 3,000 soldiers to guard Lecheng County, Liu Xie took the remaining troops and escorted Yuan Shao back to Yecheng.

However, because of the heavy snow, the marching speed was very slow.

It took several days to leave Hejian County.

But Liu Xie was not in a hurry at all, because this was a triumphant return to the court, not a rush to fight, so it was okay to walk slowly.

"I wonder how long it will take for the snow to stop."

"Why is it so heavy this year?"

Gao Lan took a few soldiers to dig out the wheels stuck in the snow, and after blowing on his red hands, he couldn't help complaining.

I don't know how many times the wheels have been stuck along the way.

It's all because of this heavy snow!

After cursing for a while, Gao Lan bowed to Liu Xie who was standing beside him and said, "The wheels have been dug out. Your Majesty, please get on the carriage."

Liu Xie was standing by the road admiring the snowy scenery in the distance. Hearing this, he ordered, "After several days of traveling, the soldiers are tired. Let's stop and rest."

"Yes!"

Gao Lan bowed his hands and accepted the order.

Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Cui Yan saw Liu Xie admiring the snow here, and they all gathered together.

Guo Jia reminded him, "It's cold, Your Majesty must be careful about your body. Let's go back to the carriage."

Liu Xie glanced at him and smiled, "My body is very healthy. You, a sickly person, are concerned about me."

"When you give up the Five Stones Powder and the habit of alcoholism, it's not too late to persuade me to take care of my body. Don't think I don't know that you are still secretly taking the Five Stones Powder."

He has reminded Guo Jia more than once.

But Guo Jia has been secretly taking it.

Hearing this, Guo Jia could only smile awkwardly.

Jia Xu, who was standing by, would not miss such an opportunity to add insult to injury, and immediately complained to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, you don't know that this guy not only takes Wushisan, but also indulges in women every day. Your Majesty can see it from his frail appearance."

"Your Majesty told him to take care of his health, but he didn't listen at all."

At this point, he looked at Guo Jia again and said earnestly: "Fengxiao, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but how can you indulge yourself so much at such a young age?"

"But I'm conditioning my body There is a method to treat kidney deficiency. With our friendship, I will teach you for free without charging you any money. "

"Jia Wenhe!"

Being exposed by Jia Xu, Guo Jia was immediately a little furious, "A famous scholar can be called obsessed with women? And I don't have kidney deficiency, don't slander me!"

Jia Xu smiled and said, "Yes, yes, the person I saw buying aphrodisiac powder from a foreign merchant that day was not you, but someone else."

Guo Jia's face flushed and he couldn't speak.

Liu Xie, Cui Yan, Zhao Yun, Zhang He and others couldn't help laughing.

The snow was full of a happy atmosphere.

While everyone was talking and laughing, the wind and snow in the sky gradually stopped, the clouds dispersed, the sun shone on the vast snowfield, and the sky was even clearer.

The distant mountains that were originally covered by snow, clouds and fog were also revealed. Looking at it, it was bright and beautiful, and the earth was covered with silver, which was extremely beautiful.

Everyone was shocked by this rare and magnificent sight. Even Liu Xie was a little distracted for a moment and could not look back for a long time.

After a while, he suddenly chanted softly: "The scenery of the North is covered in ice for thousands of miles, and snow is drifting for thousands of miles."

"Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, there is nothing but vastness. The rivers up and down suddenly stop flowing. Silver snakes are dancing in the mountains, and wax figures are galloping, hoping to compete with God!"

"On a clear day, it looks particularly charming when you look at the red dress."

"The country is so beautiful that it attracts countless heroes to bow down!"

"I regret that Emperor Qin Zhou Wu was slightly less talented in literature; King Wen Shang Tang was slightly less charming..."

"It's all over, let's count the famous people, let's look at the present!"

Looking at the magnificent scene on the snowy field, Liu Xie was filled with great pride, and he suddenly felt inspired and recited this great man's poem smoothly.

Although he recited the poem "Qinyuanchun" with slight changes, the whole poem's grandeur has not been reduced by half, and it is soul-stirring to read.

So much so that when he read the second half of the poem, his voice unconsciously became much louder, with a somewhat impassioned tone.

After he finished reading this poem, Jia Xu and others on the side all looked shocked.

Although the genre of this poem is completely unfamiliar to them, they can hear the soaring heroic spirit contained in it, as well as the spirit of blaming Fang Qiu and looking down upon all things!

"What a poem!"

Cui Yan was the first to praise, with deep admiration and admiration on his face, "Although the style of your Majesty's poem is unprecedented, the courage contained in it is truly unparalleled in the world!"

He has studied the Book of Songs deeply, and Liu Xiegang's poem does not belong to any of the poems he knows, but it has a unique flavor.

Especially the last sentence shows Liu Xie's amazing ambition!

"It's all over, let's count the famous people, let's look at the present!"

Guo Jia hummed in a low voice, his eyes sparkling, and an indescribable ambition was aroused in his heart.

Yes, he wanted to achieve his ideals, so how could he indulge in those hobbies every day and eventually harm his body?

When the time comes for the emperor to rule the world, but he dies young, how can he realize his ambition and open a dragon gate for the common people in the world?

Starting from tomorrow, quit sex, quit drinking, and quit taking five stone pills!

Guo Jia secretly made up his mind.

In the carriage not far away, Yuan Shao also heard the poem Liu Xie had just recited. At this time, he looked at Liu Xie's tall figure with inexplicable shock in his eyes.

"Even an emperor like Emperor Qin Zhou Wu, he actually thinks he's not good enough?"

"What ambitions does he have?"
