Can I get to the other side?

"Eight hundred miles in a hurry! The emperor's edict--!"

This voice came from afar, and then a dusty postman ran into the hall, panting and holding up the yellow cloth in his hand.

"The emperor's edict! General Yuan Shu, the governor of Yangzhou, received the edict!"

Everyone in the hall was stunned when he heard this.

The emperor's edict? Where did the emperor's edict come from?

Or... which emperor's edict is it?

Yuan Shu glanced at the imperial edict in the postman's hand and asked: "Where did this edict come from? Jizhou or Xu County?"

The postman took a breath, and then replied: "Reporting to the general, it was sent from Jizhou."

Jizhou? Yuan Shao?

When he heard the place where the imperial edict was issued, Yuan Shu frowned and had a bad feeling in his heart.

The imperial edict came from Yuan Shao, so it was naturally impossible that it was really the emperor's will. It must be an edict issued by Yuan Shao in the name of the emperor!

He had always been at odds with the bastard, so now that he was sent an imperial edict, he certainly had no good intentions.

"Show it to me."

Yuan Shu said, he planned to read the contents of the imperial edict first.

If it contained something unfavorable to him, he would directly refuse it on the grounds that he did not know who was the true emperor.

Soon the imperial edict was presented to Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu took the imperial edict and read it carefully, and his expression quickly changed, first puzzled, then unconcealed anger!

"This bastard! How dare you insult me!"

Yuan Shu slammed the table heavily and cursed angrily.

The other counselors in the hall were all shocked.

Yan Xiang was a little confused and asked, "My Lord, what is written in this imperial edict? Why are you so angry?"

Yuan Shu said hatefully, "That bastard used the title of the emperor to appoint himself as the general and the general, but only appointed me as the Taiwei! I am inferior to him!"

"I am the legitimate son of the Yuan family. How dare he, a bastard raised by a little maid, be above me?!"

"This bastard is too much!"

Yuan Shu became more and more annoyed as he spoke. He grabbed the imperial edict again and threw it hard on the ground, as if he was throwing Yuan Shao's head.

Although insulting the imperial edict is a crime of disrespect, the postman responsible for delivering the imperial edict did not dare to say anything more when he saw this, but just lowered his head and pretended not to see it.

When Yan Xiang and other ministers heard this, they all fell silent.

To be fair, being appointed as Taiwei is not a bad thing. This is the position of the Three Dukes! It can't be considered low at all.

It should be noted that the Yuan family has three dukes in four generations, which makes the Yuan family firmly at the top of the major aristocratic families and is called the second surname after the Liu family!

However, they all know the grudge between their lord and Yuan Shao. Although they are half-brothers, they have always been at odds and want to distinguish who is superior.

Now they will naturally be angry when they hear Yuan Shao's canonization.

However, these are all private grudges between the two brothers, and they, the ministers, are not good at saying anything.

After Yuan Shu threw the imperial edict, he was still angry.

From childhood to adulthood, Yuan Shao has been favored by the elders in the family, and he is suppressed in every way. He is obviously just a bastard, but he is regarded as the future helmsman of the Yuan family!

Even when they were fighting against Dong Zhuo, the princes of all walks of life pushed Yuan Shao as the leader of the alliance instead of choosing him!

Why!

How is he worse than that bastard?

"Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao, now that you have the emperor in your hands, you can't wait to show off in front of me?"

"Grand Marshal...Haha! What a great Grand Marshal!"

Yuan Shu laughed in anger and gritted his teeth.

He didn't care about the position of the Three Dukes at all. To him, this position was more like an insult, as if it was given to him!

If Yuan Shao stood in front of him now, he would definitely draw his sword and kill him to vent his hatred!

"Lord, calm down. This is just an imperial decree issued by Yuan Shao in the name of the emperor. You don't need to pay attention to it. Just ignore it."

Yang Hong persuaded.

"Ignore?"

Yuan Shu raised his voice and said angrily: "That bastard almost laughed at me in person! Who does he think he is! Do I need his charity?!"

"I am the legitimate son of the Yuan family. Now I occupy Yangzhou, and I have the wealth of the world. I have millions of soldiers and countless elite generals. What can he compare with me!"

"I am the heir of the Yuan family! I am the future leader of the world!"

Yuan Shu was so angry that he spoke without thinking.

After hearing his words, everyone in the hall changed their faces, and they felt cold sweat on their backs.

This is a rebellious statement!

Although the Han Dynasty is in decline now, the people's hearts are still there. At present, the princes of all parties are in the name of supporting the Han Dynasty, and dare not reveal their ambitions.

Even Dong Zhuo did not dare to say that he was the leader of the world, but just manipulated the emperor as a puppet!

Yuan Shu's words were undoubtedly heartbreaking.

In the hall, two generals under Yuan Shu, Zhang Xun and Qiao Rui, looked at each other, and then Zhang Xun suddenly stepped out and rushed towards the postman.

"Swish!"

With a flash of cold light, before the postman could react, his head was directly cut off by Zhang Xun's sword, and blood spurted several feet high, and his body fell to the ground powerlessly.

The postman's head rolled to the ground, and his face covered with blood was still shocked. He didn't understand why he died until his death.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing Zhang Xun suddenly kill someone, Yuan Shu was shocked, and his rationality returned a little, and he couldn't help asking.

Zhang Xun was covered in blood, holding a knife and kneeling on one knee, saying: "This postman falsely conveyed the imperial edict. I was impulsive at the moment. Please punish me, my lord!"

Then Yan Xiang also stood up and said: "My lord, please calm down. You just lost your temper."

Hearing this, and seeing that the ministers in the hall all looked heavy, Yuan Shu finally understood why they were like this.

But instead of feeling regretful, he said dissatisfiedly: "What if he heard it? What's wrong with me saying that I am the common ruler of the world? Don't you think so?"

"My lord..."

Yan Xiang had a headache. This kind of words really couldn't be said.

Yuan Shu snorted coldly: "There is nothing to worry about. The decline of the Han Dynasty is an indisputable fact. The Mandate of Heaven is no longer with the Han Dynasty!"

"Who among the princes now has not thought of replacing the Han Dynasty and becoming the common ruler of the world? They want to, they want to go crazy! But they dare not say it!"

"But they dare not, I dare!"

A trace of madness appeared in Yuan Shu's eyes. He laughed and swept his eyes over the people in the hall. He said slowly: "I asked someone to do divination a few days ago. What do you think the result of the divination is?"

Everyone lowered their heads, and no one dared to answer.

They only felt that their backs were wet with cold sweat.

And Yuan Shu laughed loudly: "He said that I have a destiny, that I have the fate of being the emperor! He said that I am the real common ruler of the world!"

"In the future, destiny is in my hands!"
