Chapter 150 Uprising!

Chapter 150 Uprising!

"Kill your father to seize the throne!"

Hearing these four words from Jia Xu's mouth, Yuan Xi felt like he was stung by a scorpion. He suddenly retracted his hand and the sharp sword fell to the ground with a clang.

He looked at Jia Xu with horror, as if the person standing in front of him was not a human but a ferocious ghost.

Seeing Yuan Xi's face full of fear, Jia Xu sneered and said, "If you want to achieve great things, you can kill even your closest relatives. What, are you afraid, Second Young Master?"

Yuan Xi's eyes were full of vigilance, and he looked at Jia Xu with great fear: "What is your purpose? What do you want to do?"

Killing his father and seizing the throne, just the thought of these four words flashing through his mind made him tremble with fear.

This is simply the most outrageous thing in the world!
He just couldn't understand why Jia Xu, who was highly valued by his father Yuan Shao, would say such a cruel and crazy thing!
Jia Xu said calmly: "All I want is wealth and honor."

"The general seems to value me, but he still treats me as an outsider. Apart from occasionally asking me to give advice, has he ever given me any real power like Shen Pei and Ju Su?"

"Under the general's command, both the Runan faction and the Jizhou faction are rejecting me, an outsider with no foundation. In this situation, what do you think I should do, Second Young Master?"

Yuan Xi was silent for a while, then slowly said: "Support a new master, or choose someone else."

The current factional structure has been fixed. If Jia Xu wants to stand out, he can only support a new person in power to redistribute the interests.

Otherwise you can only vote for someone else.

But in this vast world, who can compare to Yuan Shao?

"That's right!" Jia Xu put his hand on Yuan Xi's shoulder, his eyes shining, his tone gradually becoming excited, "The reason why I choose to support the Second Young Master is because the Second Young Master is most like a great general, and he has the ruthlessness to achieve his goals by any means necessary!"

"I am fifty-one this year, and I don't have much time left to live. I can't wait much longer, and neither can you, Second Young Master. If you want to seize the throne now, the only way is to launch a mutiny!"

"Kill the general, kill Tian Feng, Shen Pei, Ju Shou, and kill all those who do not submit to the Second Young Master, and then put all the blame on the Third Young Master!"

"By then, the internal affairs will be cleansed and unified, and there will be no factional strife. The Second Young Master will be able to completely dominate Jizhou and hold the emperor hostage to command the world!"

"But..." Yuan Xi was somewhat persuaded, but he still couldn't get over the hurdle of ethics and morality.

Seeing this, Jia Xu growled madly, "Have you forgotten what you promised me that day? Live! Live by any means necessary! Be the final winner, not the loser!"

"What infamy, what morality, what etiquette, it's all bullshit! Only the victor can write everything!"

Jia Xu spoke hurriedly, one sentence after another, not giving Yuan Xi any time to think. Every sentence struck Yuan Xi's heart directly, releasing the beast called desire.

Yuan Xi's expression gradually became ferocious. He looked down at the sharp sword. His current face was reflected on the smooth sword. The blood-red slap mark was so glaring and hateful.

"what should I do?"

After a long time, Yuan Xi's eyes gradually turned cold, and he spoke hoarsely,
He could not refuse Jia Xu's proposal. It was like a person who was about to die of thirst getting a bowl of poisoned wine. Even though he knew it was poisonous, he would still enjoy drinking it!

Jia Xu was overjoyed in his heart, but his face calmed down, not as crazy as before.

"Just when the Second Young Master left, the General fell into a coma. Right now, the Third Young Master and all of the General's subordinates are in the mansion!"

"As far as I know, the Second Young Master has a private army stationed outside the city. Once night falls, the Second Young Master will lead this private army into the city and rush into the General's residence. Then, he can capture them all and kill them all!"

Yuan Xi frowned and said, "Without my father's order, the troops outside the city are not allowed to enter the city. How can I bring my private army into the city?"

Among the guards guarding the city gate, three were members of the Yuan clan, and one was Xu You who had just spoken for Yuan Shang.

These four people were all people Yuan Shao trusted, and it was impossible for them to open the city and let them go without an order.

Jia Xu asked in return: "The Second Young Master is the son of the general. As long as he sends troops into the city in the name of the general, who would doubt it?"

When Yuan Xi heard this, he was moved.

Jia Xu observed the situation and quickly continued to attack Yuan Xi's psychological defenses.

"Second Young Master, stop making excuses for yourself. It's not that you have no other options, it's just that you are still hesitant and hesitant. But now that it has come to this, what is there to hesitate about?"

"Do you know that after today, you will completely lose everything! Even in the bitter cold land of Youzhou, it will not be your turn! You can only be an idle playboy in this life! Is this really what the Second Young Master wants?"

"The throne of power is cold. If you want to sit on it, you have to be colder than it!"

Jia Xu saw through Yuan Xi's inner thoughts completely, and the last bit of hope disappeared.

He stood up with the sword in hand, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "If a man lives a mediocre life, it is no different from death! I will lead the troops into the city tonight!"

Jia Xu took a step back and stood still, bowing respectfully to Yuan Xi: "Then I will wait for good news from the Second Young Master."

In the study, Yuan Xi didn't even look at Jia Xu who was leaving. He picked up the sword, stretched out his hand and slowly brushed across the sword, leaving a long blood mark on the bright sword.

His eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent.

……

After Jia Xu left Yuan Xi's house, he immediately drove to Xu You's house and told him the news that he had successfully persuaded Yuan Xi to launch a mutiny.

"Wenhe really sees through people's hearts!"

After Xu You expressed his feelings, he was greatly encouraged.

He never expected that Jia Xu could actually incite Yuan Xi to rise up and kill his father.

Jia Xu smiled and said, "Thanks to Ziyuan's cooperation, if it weren't for your patience and endurance, how could this plan have progressed so smoothly?"

All of this today was part of their plan.

First, Xu You deliberately mentioned the issue of Bingzhou, causing the two brothers Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang to fight for it, and finally gave Yuan Shang the opportunity to temporarily serve as the governor of Bingzhou, thereby making Yuan Xi resentful.

After this step was achieved, Jia Xu would then bewitch Yuan Xi, further igniting his inner hatred towards Yuan Shao and poisoning Yuan Shao.

However, what was unexpected was that Yuan Xi actually contradicted Yuan Shao in public, which was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise.

Jia Xu took advantage of the situation and directly skipped the trick of chronic poison, instigating Yuan Xi, who was in a desperate situation, to launch a mutiny.

This plan was achieved beyond expectations.

After praising each other for a while, Jia Xu began to discuss the specific action plan for tonight with Xu You.

"Tonight at midnight, Yuan Xi will lead his troops into the city, surround Yuan's residence, and kill Yuan Shao and all his advisers except Feng Ji and Guo Tu."

"Ziyuan will then join forces with the guards of the other three city gates and lead the city defense forces to capture Yuan Xi and create chaos. Afterwards, I will bring His Majesty's imperial edict and lead the Imperial Guards to take over the situation!"

"In this way, Yecheng can be conquered!"

The whole plan is closely linked.

The first step was for Yuan Xi to kill Yuan Shao, Yuan Shang, Ju Su, Shen Pei and others;
The second step was for Xu You to arrest Yuan Xi on the charge of patricide to create chaos;
The third step is for the Imperial Guard to go out and take over the situation in accordance with the emperor’s decree!
Yuan Shao, Yuan Xi, Yuan Shang, and all his advisors died.

No one in Yecheng will hinder the emperor anymore, and no one will dare to disobey the emperor's orders!

"good!"

Xu You nodded heavily, a look of delight on his face.

The emperor takes power tonight!
……

royal palace.

Jia Xu entered the palace and asked the emperor to issue an edict, ordering Zhang He and Gao Lan to lead the imperial guards to cooperate with his actions tonight.

At the same time, he told Liu Xie everything that had happened today.

"But is it too hasty for Wenhe to instigate Yuan Xi to kill his father and seize power today? According to the previous plan, we should take it slowly and lure Yuan Xi to poison Yuan Shao without anyone noticing."

When Liu Xie learned what had happened, he was deeply worried.

Yuan Xi succeeded and everyone was happy.

If Yuan Xi fails, Jia Xu will have no way out.

Not to mention whether Yuan Xi would betray him, the frequent contacts between the two before were enough for Yuan Shao to see the clues.

Jia Xu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this happened suddenly. Today, Yuan Shang temporarily took over as governor of Bingzhou. This was a plan set up by Xu You and me to make Yuan Xi completely lose hope of succeeding to the throne. I never thought that he would contradict Yuan Shao in public."

"I think that Yuan Xi's anger is an opportunity, but this opportunity is fleeting. If we wait one more day, he may wake up."

"If this plan succeeds, the entire Ye City will be under your control, and you will not have to bear the unjust name of killing Yuan Shao. Therefore, I will follow the trend and take advantage of it, without caring about protecting myself." Liu Xie shook his head secretly. Yuan Xi was so impatient that he actually contradicted Yuan Shao in public. No wonder he was not the heir to the throne even though he was the de facto eldest son.

"If that doesn't work, will Wenhe surrender to Cao?"

When Jia Xu heard this, he was surprised. He didn't expect that the emperor had seen through the way he had left for himself.

With a smile on his face, he said sincerely: "Your Majesty has a good eye! If Yuan Xi fails, Yuan Shao will definitely kill me. Besides, Yecheng has Feng Xiao to assist Your Majesty. Yuan Xi is no longer valuable, and it is useless for me to stay. It is better to use this opportunity to surrender to someone else secretly."

"But I am not secretly surrendering to Cao Cao, but to General Gongsun Zan of the White Horse."

After hearing this, Liu Xie immediately understood what Jia Xu was planning. He nodded in praise:
"Wenhe is thoughtful and considerate. He takes one step at a time and plans three steps ahead. I really admire him."

Cao Cao would have Xu You as an insider in the future. Adding Jia Xu would not have much effect.

Instead, he had to worry all the time about Cao Cao avenging his son.

If you go to Gongsun Zan, you won't have to worry about this.

Yuan Shao was determined to capture Youzhou. Although Gongsun Zan was brave, the White Horse Volunteers were also rare elite troops.

Unfortunately, Gongsun Zan did not have a single decent strategist under his command.

In the battle with Yuan Shao, the army was always at a disadvantage. If one was not careful, there was a danger of overthrow.

With the help of Jia Xu, there might be a chance to resist the invasion of Yuan Shao's army. At the very least, it could greatly delay the time for Yuan Shao to conquer Youzhou, weaken his military strength, and at the same time win more opportunities for Liu Xie.

After receiving the imperial edict, Jia Xu briefed Zhang He and Gao Lan on the matter. Before leaving the palace, he respectfully paid homage to Liu Xie.

"Your Majesty, after tonight, I may have to leave for Youzhou. After this separation, I don't know when we will meet again. Before I leave, does Your Majesty have any instructions for me?"

Liu Xie helped Jia Xu up, feeling very reluctant to let him go.

He naturally hoped that Yuan Xi would succeed, but he also knew that the chance of failure was equally high.

Holding Jia Xu's hands, he said, "My dear, please take care of yourself and don't die outside. Otherwise, the position of right prime minister will only be passed on to Feng Xiao."

Jia Xu was moved. Although he knew that this was His Majesty's usual style and he had never fallen for it before, he fell for it unknowingly.

"Your Majesty, please do not worry about me. Fengxiao should just rely on his left prime minister and not worry about me as the right prime minister. Besides, it is still unknown whether Yuan Xi will succeed or fail."

Liu Xie nodded gently, "If you are forced to go to Youzhou, you must make good use of my imperial edict. Gongsun Zan is unwilling to be loyal to the Han Dynasty, so find an opportunity to sideline him or find a suitable person to replace him. In addition, Gongsun Zan has a young general named Zhao Yun, whose courtesy name is Zilong. You must recruit him for me."

Jia Xu kowtowed: "I will remember this!"

After saying that, he stood up and left the palace.

……

Yuan Mansion, outside the wing room.

After Yuan Shao fell unconscious, he was hurriedly sent into the house and a medical officer came to treat him.

Ju Shou, Shen Pei, Yuan Shang and others were waiting anxiously outside the wing room.

As soon as the medical officer came out, everyone immediately surrounded him.

Ju Su asked, "How is the Lord's health?"

The doctor bowed and said, "The general was just angry like last time, and the blood rushed up and caused him to faint. I have used gold needles to clear the acupoints for the general. He only needs to recuperate for a few days and take a few doses of medicine and he will be fine."

"However, in the future, try not to anger the general. If this happens a few more times, I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything about it."

The last time Yuan Shao was so angry that he fainted was when he heard the news that Yuan Shu had proclaimed himself emperor. The situation this time was the same as last time, except that the person who made him faint was Yuan Xi.

After the doctor left, Yuan Shang said angrily: "Second brother is really too much! If he really wants to go to Bingzhou, I will give it to him! How can you contradict father like this!"

These words were spoken with great righteousness and were deliberately spoken loudly, as if he was afraid that Yuan Shao, who was lying in the side room, could not hear them.

Naturally, his little thoughts could not be hidden from Ju Shou, Shen Pei and others.

But at this moment, no one was in the mood to care about this matter. They only cared about Yuan Shao's safety.

Feng Ji said in a deep voice: "The news of the general's coma must be kept secret. Immediately notify all the garrisons and impose martial law."

Tian Feng nodded and said, "After the lord fell into a coma, Xu Ziyuan went to the east gate immediately and ordered the garrison to strengthen martial law."

"That's good." Feng Ji's expression relaxed slightly when he heard this, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Xu Ziyuan has changed a lot recently, and he is much more steady in doing things than before."

Xu You used to be frivolous and arrogant, so even though he was quite talented, he was still disliked by everyone.

It is really touching to see such a big change now.

At this time, everyone nodded in agreement with what Feng Ji said.

"Everyone..." Guo Tu hesitated for a moment, and asked everyone with a heavy face: "After the general wakes up, how will he deal with the second young master?"

With just one sentence, the atmosphere instantly became cold.

Everyone fell into silence.

Today, Yuan Xi disobeyed Yuan Shao and went against filial piety, which was a big taboo.

Not to mention fighting for the throne in the future, even the position of Governor of Youzhou promised by Yuan Shao might become a bubble.

But how to deal with it in the end depends on Yuan Shao's decision.

It may be a light punishment or a severe punishment.

"This is the general's family affair and has nothing to do with us. We just need to wait here for the lord to wake up. Don't discuss other topics."

Ju Su spoke up to stop the topic.

This is not something they can interfere with.

So everyone stopped talking and waited outside the room with peace of mind.

Only Guo Tu and Feng Ji were left with anxious looks on their faces.

The distant sky.

The sun slowly sets over the mountain.

Night is about to fall.

……

It was late at night and everything was silent.

In the southern suburbs of Yecheng, the Hu Camp was stationed.

Yuan Xi was wearing armor and had a sword on his waist, with a murderous look between his brows.

He looked at the five hundred soldiers of the Tiger Camp standing in neat and solemn rows in front of him with extremely excited eyes.

The Hu Camp was not affiliated with the Jizhou Army. It was a personal army that Yuan Shao allowed him to train, and would be responsible for his safety on the battlefield in the future.

It is also his greatest reliance for starting the uprising tonight!
"Everyone——!"

Yuan Xi suppressed the throbbing in his heart, turned to the Five Hundred Tiger Camp, and said in a deep voice: "You are all elite warriors that I have carefully selected and trained for many years!"

"My father has been deceived by a traitor who wants to depose the eldest son and enthronize the youngest son. I have no way out!"

"Tonight, I intend to start a rebellion, eliminate the traitors, seize the throne, and accomplish great things! Although I don't know all of you, our fates will be bound together tonight!"

"If this is successful today, I will repay you with my life and death! If this fails, I will not live in vain!"

Yuan Xi's voice was full of sharpness and decisiveness. From the moment he chose to start the rebellion, there was no turning back.

Five hundred soldiers from the Tiger Camp knelt on one knee, pounded their chests with their right fists, and shouted in unison: "Follow the young master and eliminate the traitors!"

This scene made Yuan Xi's blood boil. He suddenly drew out the sword from his waist and shouted: "Start a rebellion!!"

Five hundred soldiers of the Tiger Camp stood up together, followed Yuan Xi out of the parade ground, and headed straight for Yecheng under the moonlight!

 I have said the three words "please vote for the monthly ticket" many times. Do you have to force me, the supreme ruler, to kneel down before you vote?
