Can I get to the other side?

Yecheng, Yuan Mansion.

In the meeting hall, the advisers and generals gathered here.

Yuan Shao sat on the top seat, looking at the secret report in his hand, his expression gloomy and livid.

This is the news that just came back this morning.

Luoyang had been captured by Cao Cao, and the emperor was welcomed to Xu County; not only that, Cao Cao also announced that he would establish another imperial court!

"Cao Mengde, what a great Cao Mengde!"

Yuan Shao slapped the secret report on the table and gritted his teeth.

With the emperor in his hands, Cao Cao would be able to form the imperial court, which would mean he had taken over the orthodoxy. This would inevitably attract talented people from all over the world to agree with him, and what's more terrible is that he would have the right to speak!

He hadn't cared about it before, but it wasn't until now that he truly realized what an opportunity he had missed.

Let Cao Cao get this great benefit for nothing!

Taking a deep breath to suppress his depression, Yuan Shao turned his gaze to the many courtiers in the lobby and said, "I believe you all have read the secret report sent this morning."

"If you have any ideas, tell me."

Although it was unchangeable that Cao Cao held the emperor hostage, he was still a little unwilling to accept it. He always felt that Cao Cao could not be so easy.

So now we can only place our hope on these counselors under our command.

See if you can find a way to turn the situation around.

After Yuan Shao finished speaking, a scribe with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks stood up first and said: "My lord, I don't think this is a bad thing."

"Oh? Why did Gongze say this?"

Yuan Shao frowned, feeling a little confused.

This scribe was Guo Tu. When he saw Yuan Shao's gaze, he calmly raised his hands and said: "My lord, although Cao Cao has the emperor, he can use the emperor's name to act and recruit talents; but with Dong Zhuo in front, if he If you do something wrong, you will become the target of public criticism.”

"And my lord, you are sitting in the land of three states, with millions of soldiers and countless talented generals. It doesn't matter whether you have the emperor in your hands or not. On the contrary, you can avoid constraints."

"So I say that letting Cao Cao become the emperor is not a bad thing for my lord."

Guo Tu talked eloquently, and his remarks sounded reasonable and well-founded.

But just as he finished speaking, a cold snort suddenly sounded.

"That's complete nonsense!"

A scribe with a resolute face stepped forward and said coldly to Guo Tu: "Wherever the emperor is, orthodoxy will be there! If the emperor is in Jizhou, the lord will be able to occupy the rightful place!"

"When Ju Shou proposed that my lord welcome the emperor to Jizhou, if you and Chunyu Qiong hadn't strongly opposed it and caused my lord to be bewitched, how would it have been Cao Cao's turn to succeed?"

"Now you still want to deceive the lord?"

Being pointed at his nose and scolded, Guo Tu looked a little embarrassed, but he did not shut up because of this. Instead, he said tit for tat: "It is not a wise move to welcome the emperor to Jizhou!"

"If the emperor comes to Jizhou, should we listen to the lord or the emperor? What are your thoughts, Tian Feng?"

"I think you are the real fool!"

Seeing that Tian Feng and Guo Tu were arguing more and more fiercely, Yuan Shao, who was sitting in the main seat, finally spoke.

"Stop arguing!"

Yuan Shao frowned and spoke, hearing the two arguing, he just felt upset.

He glanced at the ministers in the lobby and suddenly noticed that a familiar figure seemed to be missing.

"Where is Gongyu? Where has he gone?"

At this time, all the ministers gathered in the hall, except Ju Shou.

Jushou had tried his best to propose to him to welcome the emperor to Jizhou, but he did not accept it. Now it seems that Jushou may be right.

He wanted to hear what Jushou had to say now.

"My lord, early this morning, you and I left the city to go fishing."

A scribe in a Confucian shirt spoke. This person was also one of Yuan Shao's close advisors. His surname was Shen, his name was Pei, and his courtesy name was Zhengnan.

When Yuan Shao heard this, he ordered the guards on the left and right: "Come, hurry up and invite the Duke to come to the house to discuss matters."

"Yes, my lord!"

The guards took the order and retreated.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Shao comforted Tian Feng and Guo Tu: "The matter has come to an end, so don't quarrel anymore. Let's wait until the Duke comes to discuss it."

Although the two of them were still unhappy, Yuan Shao had said so, so they could only bow their heads and say yes.

But what was unexpected was that the guard returned in a hurry not long after he left.

"My lord! My lord! My lord is not good——!"

The guard looked panicked and ran into the lobby.

Yuan Shao said with some displeasure: "How unbecoming is it to yell and scream! Why are you so alarmed?"

The guard's face was full of nervousness, and he stuttered: "It's the Supervisor! The Supervisor..."

"What happened to Gong Yu?!"

Yuan Shao became nervous instantly.

Could it be that something happened to Jushu?

The guard gritted his teeth and said: "The supervisor, he is back with the emperor! He is outside the house now!"

As soon as these words came out, the lobby suddenly fell into silence.

Everyone's faces were full of confusion.

They wondered if they were hallucinating.

Jushou...came back with the emperor?

Did they not wake up, or was the guard crazy?

Yuan Shao was the first to come to his senses, his eyes instantly became sharp, and he scolded: "Nonsense! The emperor has been taken to Xu County by Cao Cao, how could he come here!"

"Lord, it's true!"

The guard suppressed his blush and stuttered, "The Supervisor is outside the mansion with the Emperor right now. He asked you to come out of the mansion with everyone here to greet him!"

He also felt it was outrageous.

But it's true.

Yuan Shao frowned. If this guard hadn't followed him for many years and won his trust in his steady behavior, he would really think that this guy was crazy.

But if the guard is not crazy, then there is only one possibility left: Jushou is up to something.

After some thought, Yuan Shao made a decision in his mind, stood up and said: "Let's go, follow me out of the house!"

He wanted to see where Jushu could conjure an emperor for him!

Yuan Shao strode out of the mansion. Tian Feng, Shen Pei and other civil servants and generals looked at each other and followed him.

They were also very curious about what kind of medicine Jushuo was selling in his gourd.

The group of people soon arrived at the main entrance of Yuan Mansion.

At the main entrance, Jushou was standing respectfully next to a young man in ragged clothes, saying something.

This young man's clothes are in tatters, his face is sallow and his skin is thin, and he looks like a beggar; but upon closer inspection, he is handsome, and there is an aura of nobility between his brows.

And when Yuan Shao's eyes fell on the beggar-like young man's face, his eyes almost bulged out!

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?!"

Yuan Shao exclaimed, thinking for a moment that he was hallucinating.

But standing in front of him at this moment.

Who could it be if it wasn't the Emperor of Han Dynasty!
