It was precisely because he adopted the strategy of "holding the emperor's hand in order to command disobedience" that even though he later defeated Yuan Shao and wiped out the Central Plains, Boss Cao also earned the reputation of being disloyal. Not only did he almost end up like Dong Zhuo due to the "Belt Edict" incident

His fate was met with opposition from many noble families even if he was promoted to Duke of Dukedom and granted the title of Jiuxi. Even Xun Yu, who had accompanied him along the way, stood against him.

In this case, Boss Cao wanted to become emperor.

Does he dare?

Therefore, if you consider this, it may not be wrong for Yuan Shao not to welcome Emperor Xian.

As a person with a crushing advantage at that time, he did not need to use the name of Emperor Xian to suppress other forces, and he had a good chance of achieving success. Keeping Emperor Xian by his side would bring a lot of unnecessary harm and become a tool for him to realize his ambitions.

shackles.

For the relatively weak Boss Cao, Emperor Xian is the political force he has to borrow if he wants to rise. As for the possible side effects... Only by surviving and growing will he have a chance. He can only take one step at a time.

There is no other way.

And after seeing this Feng Yuxi.

Wu Liang finally understood Yuan Shao's thoughts.

It is not that he lacks political wisdom. It is impossible for a person without political wisdom to think of such a profitable and harmless strategy as sending someone to assassinate Emperor Xian.

It's a pity that his plan did not succeed, otherwise there would be no chance of Boss Cao welcoming Emperor Xian later.

As for why it didn’t succeed…

Wu Liang turned his head and looked at Zuo Ci meaningfully.

"?"

Zuo Ci was shocked when Wu Liang saw him, and couldn't help but look confused and uneasy.

This key figure that affects Yuan Shao's overall plan may be Zuo Ci.

Even if Wu Liang did not come to Jinyang City at this time, Zuo Ci would definitely arrive, and he would definitely be detained by Zhang Liang to help him explore such underground secrets.

In history, Zuo Ci finally possessed the ability to "dissolve immortals from corpses".

This shows that even if Wu Liang did not appear, Zuo Ci still used his own method to kill Zhang Liang, so that when Yuan Shao's imperial edict was delivered, Zhang Liang had no chance to check the contents of the imperial edict, let alone execute Yuan Shao's execution.

command.

Coupled with the inconvenience of communication in this era, it is not known how long it will take for messengers to send messages back and forth. If you are not careful, you will miss the opportunity to take action.

This would give Boss Cao the opportunity to welcome Emperor Xian.

"It seems that the weather is not with Yuan Shao..."

Thinking of this, Wu Liang couldn't help but sigh.

At the same time, Wu Liang also began to doubt what kind of existence Zhang Liang was under Yuan Shao's command.

The leader of the special forces?

The Jin Yiwei who specializes in doing dirty things for Yuan Shao?

According to the content analysis in Yuxi, this possibility is very high...

Zhang Liang once said to Wu Liang before his death: "It took a lot of effort for Zhang to get to where he is today. No one knows the hardships along the way... Everything about Zhang has been hard-won, and there are still many grand ambitions that Zhang has yet to realize.

You must not die here..."

Wu Liang understands better than anyone else.

How difficult is it for a person with Zhang Liang's status and background in this era where the advancement space is completely monopolized by the gentry? And the reason why he was able to enter the sight of Yuan Shao, who was vassalized by many gentry wealthy families, was that he did not use any extraordinary means and did not show those

The irreplaceable role of the children of noble families is probably impossible to achieve.

Coupled with the methods Zhang Liang displayed in Jinyang City, we can also see part of his character. He is definitely not a weak person.

"Young and talented brother, the content of this message should not be related to me, right?"

Seeing Wu Liang looking at him, with the expression on his face changing several times, Zuo Ci felt increasingly unsure and couldn't help but ask.

"How could that happen?"

Wu Liang came to his senses, rolled up the slips and put them in his arms, and then found a scroll of slips written by Zhang Liang himself from Zhang Liang's desk. Then he said to Zuo Ci with a smile, "It's just a return

I have to trouble Brother Yuan Fang to imitate Zhang Liang's handwriting and write a reply so that the two envoys can go back and deliver the message."

"This... talented brother, look at my hands, it's hard to write now..."

Zuo Ci looked embarrassed and shook his arms, which had been tied to bamboo boards at the broken bones.
