Chapter 12

This voice shouted with great momentum. Even if he was not a eunuch, he would be startled when he heard the words suddenly. However, Liu Xuan just raised his eyes and turned around to look at it, and even took a leisurely look at the impact.

The general who came did not care at all about the several soldiers who rushed up.

As for being regarded as a eunuch again, Liu Xuan could only feel helpless in his heart.

In the Han Dynasty, even the official uniforms were not much different in style. Moreover, eunuchs were also officials in the Han Dynasty. Even in the early years of the Han Dynasty, the positions originally held by eunuchs were ordinary people. Later, they were gradually used

Eunuchs replaced them. And these eunuchs wore official uniforms in the imperial city. Now that the situation is such a chaotic situation, these soldiers naturally have no intention of identifying each one in detail. Anyway, they will kill all those who look like eunuchs.

Seeing several soldiers rushing forward and stabbing him directly with their spears, Liu Xuan first swung the long knife in his hand at an angle and lifted the spear that was stabbed into his chest. Then he flicked his wrist and exploded with strength,

The spear was deflected a lot, and then he saw the right moment, and when the soldier's hands were numb and unable to hold the spear, he stepped forward with a fierce step, and then slashed with his sword, directly killing the soldier.

And this was just the beginning. He turned the long knife in his hand, followed by a sideways swing, and disemboweled the soldier next to him. He followed the slashing force and turned around to avoid the attack that was coming after him.

The spears were thrown, and then everything was violent, chopping off the spearheads of those spears.

This series of attacks just happened in the blink of an eye. The military school opposite saw only its own soldiers rushing forward. As soon as he blinked, several of them immediately lay down, and he was shocked.

"Is there any eunuch with such powerful martial arts skills in the palace?"

Shocked in his heart, he waved the long sword in his hand, and then he was about to step forward to fight with the young man who looked young. However, before he could take a step, a loud shout came from behind: "Assistant Benchu, this is Prince Liang."

!”

When Yuan Shao heard this, he tilted his body, and the long sword that was about to stab went limp. He turned around and found that it was his good friend Cao Cao, Cao Mengde, leading a group of soldiers who were busy extinguishing the fire, with a look on his face.

He waved to himself anxiously.

When Cao Cao ran up to him, Yuan Shao hurriedly asked: "Who does Meng De say this is?"

Cao Cao had already rushed forward and saw Liu Xuan standing upright with a sword. Although his body was covered with blood stains, it was obvious that he was not injured. Judging from his calm and calm appearance, it was estimated that the Liang King had not let go of those miscellaneous soldiers at all.

in the eyes.

"This is the brother of the current Holy Emperor, Prince Liu Xuan of Liang!"

He whispered to Yuan Shao and informed Liu Xuan of his identity, just because he was afraid that his friend would be reckless and offend Liu Xuan - but he knew that if Liu Xuan really wanted to take Yuan Shao's life, it would only be a matter of raising his hands and feet, and he would even kill him.

Yuan Shao and the Yuan family had no way to reason.

To put it bluntly, there is no reason for what happened today. Even if you, Yuan Shao, wanted to kill the eunuchs, it is a fact that you led troops and horses to attack the palace. What is even more terrible is that you mobilized troops and horses privately without getting any secret orders. This is casual.

A crime of treason is not an injustice.

What's more, in the current situation, it is obvious at a glance that Yuan Shao led his troops to attack Liu Xuan regardless of the facts. If Liu Xuan really pursues the case, Yuan Shao will still be unreasonable.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao was even glad that after he discovered that the palace was getting more and more chaotic, he led his people directly to Liu Xuan. If Liu Xuan had really killed Yuan Shao a little later, it would have been a big blow to Liu Xuan's plan.

Huge obstacle.

Yuan Shao was born in the Yuan family. The Yuan family is known as the Four Generations and Three Dukes, with disciples and former officials all over the world. It is one of the largest families in the world today and is also very powerful in the court.

Not to mention others, just the Grand Tutor Yuan Wei was listed as the assistant minister of the new emperor along with He Jin, which shows how powerful the Yuan family is. If Liu Xuan really killed Yuan Shao, it would be even more difficult for him to get the throne.

Now that Cao Cao has reached an alliance with Liu Xuan, it can be said that he is sitting on the same boat. He does not want to have any conflict with the Yuan family at this critical moment.

Cao Cao would do this, firstly so that there would be one less obstacle for Liu Xuan to ascend the throne, and also for himself. After all, only Liu Xuan ascended the throne, and as the first person to stand with Liu Xuan, he could gain the greatest benefits.

As for Liu Xuan himself? In fact, he had already guessed the general identity of the person in front of him. As soon as he shouted the phrase "original" just now, he was immediately sure that the person in front of him was indeed the future lord of Hebei, and the current captain of Sili.

, the actual highest commander of Xiyuan Army: Yuan Shao and Yuan Benchu.

He didn't have a good impression of this person, and he never thought of taking this person for his own use. He even put this person on his death list early on.

But there is a problem, that is, Yuan Shao cannot die at this time, and he still expects Yuan Shao to make trouble for Hebei? If Yuan Shao is gone, where can he find a suitable excuse to clear out the land of Hebei again?

?

But this doesn't mean that he has to swallow his anger in front of Yuan Shao? What's more, his status is much higher than that of Yuan Shao now.

"Captain Yuan led his troops into the palace, burned, killed, and looted. Could it be that he wanted to commit treason?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, a big hat was slapped on him. At this time, Yuan Shao was still whispering to Cao Cao: "If it weren't for Meng De, I would have almost caused a big disaster!"

Yuan Shao is not a fool. He understands that he has violated taboos by leading troops into the palace. Killing some eunuchs can be said to be killing traitors, but he has violated the blood of the Han Dynasty and is the son of the late emperor. Now he has the throne.

Dear, that is such a big crime. If the royal family really wanted to punish him, he would not even be able to defend himself.

Thinking of this, cold sweat started to flow from his forehead. At the same time, he was very grateful to Cao Cao who felt it in time: "Fortunately, Meng De knew the face of King Liang!"

Yuan Shao was also quite depressed about this matter. Everyone knew that the late emperor had three sons and one daughter. However, the eldest son Liu Xuan hardly appeared in front of outsiders. He was also very low-key in the palace, even so low-key that even some of the maids and eunuchs in the palace did not know him.

Their status, let alone foreign ministers like them?

Some low-level officials in Beijing knew that the emperor had a son, which was considered good enough. Some people even thought that the prince only had two sons and were completely unaware of Liu Xuan's existence.

It was not until the late emperor died and Liu Bian succeeded to the throne that he named Liu Xuan the King of Liang and Liu Xie the King of Chenliu. These people were surprised to learn of Liu Xuan's existence - but they still didn't know what he looked like.

When Cao Cao heard this, he could only smile bitterly to himself, and said to himself that Liu Xuan was really able to endure it. When the late emperor was in power, he kept a low profile to such an extent. It was not until the late emperor died and the palace was in chaos that he began to reveal his methods——

He had already guessed that Liu Xuan did not wait quietly in his palace for the chaos to pass, but took the initiative to come out, just to show off his skills and gain some fame at the same time.

"If this is the case, although there won't be any trouble today, I'm afraid a rebuke is unavoidable!"

Of course, as soon as the thought came into my mind, Liu Xuan's question came out.

Yuan Shao hurriedly turned around, saluted, and started to defend himself: "The ten constant servants caused trouble in the court, and used poisonous tactics to kill the general. Only then did the general lead his troops into the palace to kill the ten constant servants!"

This excuse is very one-sided, and it still can't cover up the fact that Yuan Shao led the troops to attack the palace without permission, so Yuan Shao was sweating at this time, and he didn't even dare to face Liu Xuan - Liu Xuan now had the identity of King of Liang to suppress Yuan Shao, even though

Yuan Shao felt that what he had done was wrong and did not dare to speak out. He only hoped that the Liang King would not get entangled in this matter.

It's a pity that Liu Xuan is not such a talkative person. He directly raised his hand and pointed at the black smoke in the distance: "Since the ten regular servants were killed, what happened to these fires? Who killed those ordinary Huangmen?

Who gave you the right to lead troops into the palace without authorization? How brave you are!"

This shout caused everyone to tremble. Only then did the timid soldier realize what a sin he had done. He couldn't hold the weapon in his hand and dropped it to the ground with a cry. He almost fell to his knees.

He opened his mouth to beg for mercy on the ground.

Yuan Shao didn't know how to defend himself at this time, so he could only feel depressed. Fortunately, after Liu Xuan shouted angrily, he had no intention of continuing to hold him accountable. Instead, he said: "Even if the Shichangshi committed such a serious crime, he will not be punished."

When you make your own decisions, quickly gather your soldiers, and put out the fire in the palace, what kind of chaos is this? What kind of place do you think this is?"

This sentence was a step down for Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao naturally bowed his head and responded with this sentence. At the same time, he turned around and led his soldiers to collect the scattered troops and horses - this job is not easy to do, Xiyuan

Today, all the eight lieutenants were killed, and some ministers saw that there was a change in the palace and rushed over with their servants and guards. Now it has become a mess.

However, as long as it doesn't dazzle the King of Liang, no matter what, and the first thing is to put out all the fires in the palace, otherwise it will not be enough if the imperial city is really burned down and the entire Yuan family loses their lives.

After Yuan Shao was driven away with a few words, Liu Xuan snorted and said secretly: "If I didn't have any objections, I would take your and your brother's lives today!"

In today's matter, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, the most outstanding members of the younger generation of the Yuan family, were both involved. If they were both killed, who knows what changes would be caused?

However, Liu Xuan knew that the Han Dynasty was rotten to the core, and the trend of separatist rule among the heroes had begun to take shape. Killing Yuan Shao here would not stop the trend of the land in Hebei not being under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. It would be better to leave Yuan Shao and let

It was convenient for him to clean it up after all the fuss.

What's more, now is not an opportunity for Yuan Wei to turn against him. He also hopes to win over Taifu Yuan Wei and make him stand on his side in some matters later.

When Yuan Shao disappeared, Cao Cao came closer and said, "Your Highness, it is the best policy not to argue with Ben Chu! The Yuan family has a huge power among the nobles in the court and cannot be opposed to them at the moment." You can ignore those in the court for the time being, but

But the influence among the noble clan cannot be ignored.

Liu Xuan smiled. He knew that Cao Cao could also see the situation, but it was not the time to talk about it now, so he didn't say much. He just asked: "Have you ever seen your Majesty and King Chenliu?"

Cao Cao shook his head and was about to say he hadn't seen it when he suddenly heard a sharp hoarse voice in the distance shouting: "Your Highness, save me!" followed by an angry shout: "Where can the old thief escape?"
