Hulao Pass, Xiliang Camp, Dong Zhuo's tent.
"My lord, I have something to report."
Li Ru walked in, Dong Zhuo set up his tent and said.
"Oh? Wenyou, tell me, what's the big deal?"
Dong Zhuo was not too surprised when he saw that the visitor was Li Ru.
"My lord, do you still remember Gongsun Du?"
After Li Ru took his seat, he brought up the past.
"Gongsun Du, I remember, is from Xu Rong."
Dong Zhuo thought for a while and said slowly.
"Of course, my lord, please look, this is Youzhou, this is Liaodong, and here is Jizhou and Bohai."
Li Ru stood up and walked to the map of the army's march.
"Wen You wants to install a nail in Liaodong?"
Seeing Li Ru's hint, Dong Zhuo said knowingly.
"My lord is wise, and Liaodong is the breakthrough point."
Li Ru pointed at the map and became more and more excited.
"So, if Wen You wants to go, will Gongsun Du go?"
Dong Zhuo knew Li Ru's intention.
"Of course, please, my lord, make Gongsun Du the governor of Liaodong, so that you can contain Gongsun Zan."
Li Rudao understood the key.
"Gongsun Zan? Wen You, why not Yuan Shao?"
Dong Zhuo was a little confused and looked at Li Ru.
"Gongsun Zan's white-horse Yi Cong is very powerful, so we must first break Yuan Benchu's flanks."
Li Ru pointed at the location of the allies and said slowly.
"Haha, good, very good, just Yi Wenyou."
Dong Zhuo's face turned happy and he made a decision.
Gongsun Zan's hometown is Youzhou Youbeiping, which is adjacent to Liaodong and has no danger to defend.
In other words, once Gongsun Du takes office, Youbeiping will always face the threat of Liaodong, so Gongsun Zan has to withdraw.
And this all takes time. Whether it is successful or not depends on how quickly Gongsun Du reaches Liaodong.
Today is the day when Yuan Xi enters the palace to accompany him to study.
"Yuan Xi, please take me out of the palace, okay?"
Princess Liu Yan said to Yuan Xi.
"I don't want it. If my father knows, he will beat me."
Yuan Xi ruthlessly rejected Liu Yan.
"How about I ask my father to let you be my consort?"
Liu Yan smiled and promised, drawing a cake for Yuan Xi.
"I don't want it. The prince-in-law belongs to my court. It's a high-risk profession. It's not like you don't know. I haven't lived enough yet."
Yuan Xi once again rejected Liu Yan's request.
"Yuan Xi, you are such a bastard. There are so many people who want to be my princess and my subordinates."
Liu Yan was a little embarrassed and annoyed when she saw Yuan Xi's lack of food and salt.
"That is, but I, Yuan Xi, am not among them."
Yuan Xi couldn't deny it, but he wasn't afraid.
"Yuan Xi, what about that, before you are willing to take me out of the palace?"
Liu Yan was a little discouraged and began to plead with Yuan Xi.
"Oh? Princess, is this the attitude of asking for help?"
Yuan Xi wants to tease Liu Yan, Princess of Ten Thousand Years.
"Yuan Xi, you bastard, don't go too far."
Liu Yan was offended by Yuan Xi, and she wanted to go crazy.
Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Xi and Wannian Princess Liu Yan have been fighting each other since they were children, and they fight every day.
If Liu Yan had not been born in the emperor's family, Princess Wannian would not have been given to death.
"It's not impossible, but I have a condition."
Yuan Xi looked at Liu Yan and said slyly.
"Oh? What is it? Yuan Xi, please tell me."
Princess Wannian will not bargain this time.
"Let me think about it, I want the princess's jade pendant."
Yuan Xi glanced at Liu Yan and asked tentatively.
"Yuan Xi, you are crazy. This is the one my father gave me as a reward on my birthday. I will give you another one."
When Liu Yan heard this, she asked for the jade pendant and immediately refused.
"No, I want this jade pendant."
Yuan Xi also decided to go rogue to the end.
"How about you change it to something else, and I'll give it to you."
Liu Yan began to compromise and tried to persuade Yuan Xi.
"Well, how about lending it to me for a few days?"
Liu Yan's attitude was tough, and Yuan Xi also took a step back.
"Well, okay, just three days, how about it?"
Liu Yan reluctantly untied the jade pendant around her waist.
"No problem, a gentleman's words can't be followed by a horse."
Yuan Xi agreed immediately, just in case Liu Yan regretted it.
Childhood sweethearts, in the end, exchanged for a glass of poisonous wine, fate is also a fate, sad and deplorable.
