When Yuan Shao received the news that Wang Can had returned to Hanzhong with his troops, he immediately summoned the princes to discuss matters.
Like Yuan Shao, other princes staying in Luoyang also received news of Wang Can's departure.
In the side hall of the palace, Yuan Shao was sitting on the main seat, with a gloomy face and slightly squinted eyes. His narrow eyes flashed with cold eyes. At this time, Yuan Shao had lost the humility he had just led the troops into Luoyang. Naturally,
He lifted up his robe and sat in the position reserved for emperors.
The princes were thinking about Wang Can's return to Hanzhong, but they did not investigate Yuan Shao's seat.
Yuan Shao's eyes were cold, and he passed by the princes one by one, and said in a low tone: "I think all the princes have also got the news. Wang Can led the troops to defeat Dong Zhuo's Xiliang soldiers, and robbed Dong Zhuo of the money he looted from Luoyang. Wang Can defeated Dong Zhuo,
He should have returned to Luoyang to discuss with the princes how to deal with Dong Zhuo's money, but Wang Can led his troops back to Hanzhong without authorization and siphoned off the money. He did not follow the law and ignored the interests of his allies. How do you think the princes should deal with Wang Can?"
Wang Can defeated Dong Zhuo and took away Dong Zhuo's money, which made Yuan Shao hate him.
All along, Yuan Shao thought that Wang Can supported him.
Unexpectedly, after Wang Can got the benefit, he immediately escaped and returned to Hanzhong with the Hanzhong soldiers and Pojun camp. If he had known this, he should have suppressed Wang Can and prevented him from showing up.
Unfortunately, it’s too late to regret!
After hearing Yuan Shao's words, Yuan Shu sneered twice and said: "Since the alliance leader thinks that Wang Can does not obey the law, please order the alliance leader Yan Liang and Wen Chou to lead troops to attack Wang Can and force Wang Can to hand over the money Dong Zhuo looted. If the alliance leader defeats
Wang Can, Yuan Shu doesn’t want any of the stolen money.”
Yuan Shu's words were so powerful that Yuan Shao was stunned.
At this time, Yuan Shu actually stood up and argued with him.
Yuan Shao stared at Yuan Shu fiercely, but Yuan Shu did not give in.
Yuan Shu looked at Yuan Shao and sneered in his heart: Yuan Shao was jealous that Wang Can had taken away Dong Zhuo's money. He wanted to get a share of the pie, but he had to drag all the princes with him. But Yuan Shu had already learned Wang Can's methods. A man as tyrannical as Dong Zhuo could not
He, Yuan Shu, was not his opponent, but he was asking for trouble if he joined forces to fight Wang Can.
Like Yuan Shu, none of the princes in the hall stood up to respond to Yuan Shao's words.
Especially Gongsun Zan and Sun Jian, both of whom had disdain on their faces.
As the leader of the alliance of princes, Yuan Shao led various princes into Luoyang. Although the princes had concerns and did not want to attack Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao was the leader of the alliance and could order the princes. If Yuan Shao was more forceful, the princes could only agree to send troops, but they would not use any force.
That's all, but Yuan Shao finally chose to stay in Luoyang, and only Cao Cao and Wang Can led the troops to attack Dong Zhuo.
Now that Wang Can defeated Dong Zhuo and got countless money, Yuan Shao was jealous and wanted a piece of the pie.
You just want to take advantage without putting in any effort. What kind of truth is this?
Sun Jian thought for a while, then stood up and said: "Alliance leader, Sun Jian suddenly feels unwell. In addition, he has been away from Changsha for more than a few months and has many things to deal with. Jian hereby resigns from the alliance leader and leads his troops back to Changsha."
Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "Wentai, are you really sick?"
Sun Jian nodded and said: "Leader, Jian is really unwell."
Yuan Shao shook his head, with a sneer on his face, and said: "I don't think Wen Tai is physically ill. It's a mental illness that makes Wen Tai want to leave Luoyang and return to Changsha!"
"Heart disease?"
Someone among the princes screamed in surprise, causing them all to look at each other in confusion, looking at Yuan Shao who was sitting on the main seat inexplicably, not understanding why Yuan Shao said such a thing.
Sun Jian's heart tightened, but his face remained calm.
After a pause, Sun Jian spoke calmly and said slowly: "Jian is indeed unwell. Why did the leader say this?"
Yuan Shao sneered twice, slapped his slender hand on the desk, and shouted suddenly: "Sun Jian, the leader of this alliance sent you to clean the palace, clean up the ancestral temple, and restore the imperial tomb. Didn't you get something from it? I advise you to take the initiative.
Speak out so that if this alliance leader exposes you, you will not be embarrassed in front of the princes."
Sun Jian looked resolute, shook his head and said, "Sun Jian does not do evil things, and is not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. The leader of the alliance says what he wants to say, why bother beating around the bush and annoying others."
An intriguing smile appeared on Yuan Shao's face. This Sun Jian is really not afraid of embarrassment!
After a pause, Yuan Shao looked at the princes and asked: "Dong Zhuo kidnapped the emperor and all the court officials and moved the capital to Chang'an. He only missed one thing. Do you know?"
Yuan Shu looked curious and asked: "Leader, what Dingxi did you miss?"
Gongsun Zan said calmly: "Leader, if you have anything to say, say it directly and don't beat around the bush."
…
The various princes had different attitudes, and they all said they didn't know.
Yuan Shao coughed twice and said: "Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an and missed the imperial seal."
"What, you lost the imperial seal?"
"The jade seal of the country!"
…
Yuan Shao's words immediately caused huge waves among the princes.
Yuan Shao saw the princes whispering, with a look of surprise on his face, and said in a deep voice: "The Jade Seal of the Chuan Guo is a treasure of the imperial court, and it cannot be lost. Since General Sun has obtained the Jade Seal of the Chuan Guo, please hand it over. I, the leader of the alliance, will lead the troops to attack.
Dong Zhuo, after defeating Dong Zhuo, will return the jade seal to the court and restore the dignity of the court. General Sun has just obtained the jade seal and is preparing to leave. Isn't there something evil in his heart?"
The princes all focused their attention on Sun Jian, waiting for Sun Jian's answer.
Sun Jian looked stern and fearless and asked: "Sun Jian serves his country loyally and never has second thoughts. Where did the leader of the alliance hear the news? Why do you want to slander Sun Jian?"
Yuan Shao said: "General Sun, you led the people to clean the palace. Isn't it the jade seal that was passed down from the country that was fished out of the well in Jianzhang Palace?"
Sun Jian was surprised. He didn't understand how Yuan Shao knew about such a secret thing. However, Sun Jian looked resolute, held his head high, and said loudly: "Alliance leader, Jian said there is no jade seal, so why is the alliance leader pressing forward step by step? Could it be the alliance leader?
Seeing Sun Jian leave, do you want to slander Sun Jian and keep Sun Jian in Luoyang?"
Yuan Shao sneered and said: "Sun Jian, the leader of this alliance advises you to hand over the jade seal as soon as possible to avoid disaster."
Yuan Shao spoke forcefully, and he could vaguely feel the threat in his words.
Sun Jian gritted his teeth, stretched out his left hand, palm facing outward, fingers pointing to the sky, and swore: "The sky is above and the earth is below. If Sun Jian gets the Jade Seal of the Kingdom and hides the Jade Seal of the Kingdom secretly, Sun Jian will die by swords and arrows."
, it will not end well." After finishing speaking, Sun Jian shouted: "Sun Jian swore a poisonous oath, you are willing to believe Sun Jian."
In the main hall, when the princes from all walks of life saw Sun Jian swearing to the sky, their expressions changed greatly.
Kong Rong glanced at Sun Jian with a complicated look on his face and said, "Alliance leader, Grand Administrator Sun swears to the sky that there must be no jade seal."
Gongsun Zan also said: "Alliance leader, General Sun swore a poisonous oath. I believe he did not hide the jade seal secretly."
…
All the princes persuaded Yuan Shao that Sun Jian did not hide the jade seal secretly.
The ancients were in great awe of God, and swearing to the sky was a very serious and solemn matter.
As soon as Sun Jian's oath came out, the princes all believed Sun Jian's words. Although the national jade seal is important, compared with life, who is willing to joke with his own life? Not only the princes were shocked, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others were also frightened.
Suddenly, no one expected that Sun Jian would be so decisive and risk his life.
