The way Fu Wan looked at Bai Xiaowen was a little weird.
Bai Xiaowen was really calm and smiled, "If the emperor stays in Xudu, he will be harmed by Cao Cao. The Fu family will also follow in the footsteps of Uncle Dong. On the contrary, if you are willing to help and persuade the emperor to move the capital to Ye City, I, Yuan Xi, will use my father's name to guarantee that the Fu family will prosper for three generations. "
During the Three Kingdoms era, parents were really important.
Bai Xiaowen's words were really powerful to Fu Wan, but to Bai Xiaowen, only he knew how powerful they were.
Fu Wan took in a deep breath and exhaled, "If you invite the emperor to Ye City, will you be willing to follow him? If you become the second Cao Cao, I would rather die than follow your orders! "
Bai Xiaowen's face was really serious, "My Yuan family has been blessed by the emperor for generations. How can we be as arrogant as Cao Cao?"
Fu Wan nodded and sighed, "Since that's the case, I'm willing to try."
Bai Xiaowen nodded in satisfaction, "You are a wise person. Tomorrow will be the court assembly, so you can do it quickly. "
…
After saying goodbye, Bai Xiaowen rushed back to the prime minister's manor.
When he saw Xun again, this Heavenly Strategies Assistant Advisor did not panic when surrounded by a group of soldiers. Instead, he sat cross-legged and closed his eyes without saying a word.
Cao Cao's family members and servants were all sobbing.
Cao Cao's wife, Lady Bian, sobbed and asked, "Lord Xun, do my four sons still have a way out?"
Xun got up and bowed, "I am useless. Who knows how Yuan Xi will deal with the four of them."
Bian cried even louder, and she nearly fainted. Luckily, Ren and the others helped her up.
Xun sighed and sat on the ground once more.
Suddenly, a Youzhou soldier appeared and ordered, "Xun, the young master invites you in!"
Xun opened his eyes and said to Bian, "The safety of the four young masters and how the prime minister's family will be dealt with will be known soon. My condolences to you and make preparations. "
…
When Bai Xiaowen saw Xun again, he praised, "Your husband's Qi cultivation skill is not shallow."
"Young Master, you're too kind." Xun bowed with a humble bearing.
The more Bai Xiaowen looked at Xun, the more satisfied he was. He said, "Cao Cao's days are numbered. Why don't you choose another master?"
"Assisting the Grand General?" Xun faintly smiled, shook his head, and said, "Young Master, do you know that I escaped from the Great General?"
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said seriously, "Assist me."
Xun said, "Great General Yuan Shao is in his prime. Although the Young Master was a hero, he would still need at least twenty years to inherit the position. Moreover, Young Master doesn't seem to be the eldest son. "
Bai Xiaowen said, "Otherwise, if the awl is in the bag, sooner or later it will show its edge. If I want to achieve greatness and rule the world, I can do it myself. Why would I need Father's inheritance? "
Xun was shocked.
Bai Xiaowen laughed and said, "What do you think? Do you think I can assist you?"
In the end, Xun Moran still shook his head and said, "I have received great kindness from the Prime Minister and will definitely not do anything to betray him. If the Young Master wants to kill me, please do so. "
Bai Xiaowen shook his head, "Young Master Xun is a great talent. How can I bear to kill you? However, tomorrow I will return to Ye City under the command of the Emperor. If there are any officials in the court who do not obey, they will be regarded as Traitor Cao's henchmen. His Majesty will decide how to deal with them. "
Xun's eyes seemed to be filled with disbelief, "His Majesty might not move the capital so easily. Are you trying to trick me? Or are you trying to use force to coerce the Emperor? "
Bai Xiaowen laughed, "You are the Minister of Justice in tomorrow's court meeting. You also need to participate. We will see when the time comes. "
Seeing that Bai Xiaowen was about to leave, Xun hurriedly asked, "Young Master, please wait. Why don't I see the Prime Minister's four sons? Did the Young Master break your promise and harm them? "
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "Why do you care so much about these four people?"
Xun sighed, "I am already deeply sorry for not being able to complete the Prime Minister's task. If his sons are also harmed, how can I be at ease? "
Bai Xiaowen squinted his eyes and smiled, "Since that is the case, I have a suggestion. Is your Majesty willing?"
Xun frowned, "Young Master, please speak."
Bai Xiaowen said a few words in a low voice.
Xun's face was filled with disbelief, "Young Master will not keep your promise. Why are you playing with me?"
Bai Xiaowen said, "You can make an oath. If you go against it, you will be punished by the heavens!"
… …
Court Meeting.
Emperor Xian of Han sat at the top of the court, looking at the officials kneeling and cheering.
Without Cao Cao as an eyesore, Emperor Xian of Han felt really comfortable.
Thinking about Cao Cao, Emperor Xian of Han quickly looked for Yuan Xi.
He could not find him.
Very good. Yuan Xi followed his role and waited outside the hall.
Although the guards on duty were all wing cavalrymen under Yuan Xi's command, and Yuan Xi's action was purely 'deceiving himself', it was undeniable that appearances were very useful in many cases.
The atmosphere of the court meeting was different from usual.
The officials who usually talked loudly and were regarded as part of the Cao family all lowered their heads and looked at their feet, afraid that others would notice them.
If they could, these Cao Family officials wanted to say that they were sick.
However, they could not do so … Now that Xudu was under the control of the Youzhou army, this was the first court meeting under the control of 'Yuan Xi'. They had to go even if they wanted to!
Emperor Xian of Han looked at the officials below, suppressing the excitement in his heart, "Dear officials, what is the matter for today's court meeting?"
Fu Wan came out and said, "Your Majesty, Great General Yuan Shao's son, Yuan Xi, is both smart and brave. He defeated Cao Cao and recovered Xudu. Your Majesty should summon him into the palace and reward him accordingly. "
Emperor Xian of Han said, "Allow it."
Immediately, the eunuchs summoned the Youzhou Provincial Governor, Yuan Xi, for an audience.
Bai Xiaowen entered the court meeting. He was really courteous, and he bowed toward the emperor.
The officials all whispered to each other, and the main topic was' How did Yuan Shao have such a good son? 'and so on.
Even Xun looked at Bai Xiaowen a few more times. Who knows if it was an illusion, but today's Yuan Xi looked even more radiant than yesterday.
Although Bai Xiaowen did not have the charm buff of Zhen Mi, the buff of the Peony Leaf Painting was enough.
Immediately, Emperor Xian of Han rewarded Bai Xiaowen, giving him the title of North Conquering General and Marquis of Guannei. Apart from the Marquis title being newly conferred, his military promotion was also written in the imperial edict.
After Fu Wan brought Bai Xiaowen into the court meeting, he returned to his office.
After Bai Xiaowen thanked him, he bowed and mentioned the matter of moving the capital to Ye City.
When Emperor Xian of Han heard that, he felt a little depressed. He wanted to put this matter aside and watch Yuan Shao and Cao Cao fight to the death. It would be best if Bai Xiaowen helped him defend Xudu.
However, what Bai Xiaowen said was the truth. Xudu's grain was burned, and there was no way to defend it.
Emperor Xian of Han could only look at the officials and ask for their opinions.
Minister Geng Ji stepped out, "Your majesty, Xudu is the base of Cao Cao, and we can't stay here for long."
Minister Wei Huang stepped out, "If Xudu is broken, Cao Cao will definitely rush over. Your majesty should move to Ye City to avoid Cao Cao's army. "
A bunch of officials flashed past beside him and tried to persuade him. Most of their words were to persuade the emperor to move to Ye City.
Emperor Xian of Han looked at these people. Although he could not be sure whether or not they were loyal to the Han Dynasty, at least they were not Cao Cao's henchmen. They were the few officials in the court who did not praise Cao Cao.
Emperor Xian of Han was a little hesitant. He looked at Fu Wan, "What do you think?"
Fu Wan bowed, "Your majesty, since Cao Cao brought you to Xudu, he has been getting more and more arrogant. Last time, he massacred loyal people and caused the death of the imperial concubine. His Majesty had issued an imperial edict this time, ordering the heroes to punish the thief. If he stayed in Xu Du, then when that thief Cao returned, he would definitely not let His Majesty off. Hence, the matter of moving the capital is urgent, and we cannot hesitate. "
When Emperor Xian of Han saw that the 'loyal officials' in his heart were all saying that, he finally made up his mind, "Let's follow your words and move to Ye City!"
