Li Ru acted very relaxed and confident.
Dong Zhuo was confused and didn''t understand why Li Ru said this. It seemed that Yuan Shao''s departure was a good thing?
Li Ru explained: "It''s not that Yuan Shao doesn''t want you, it''s just that the Yuan family is at odds. Ming Gong can send someone to ask Yuan Wei again, and great things can be done. Yuan Shao hangs his knot without seal, which shows that he is attached to the official position, and there are some benefits. Naturally Nothing to worry about.”
In ancient times, official festivals and ribbons were combined into one. The festival was a symbol that represented the official''s status and privileges when traveling. The seal and ribbon were used to issue orders. However, Yuan Shao only hung his scepter on the city gate without leaving any seal or ribbon. , which shows that Yuan Shao is still very reluctant to give up his official position. In this case, Yuan Shao''s resignation and leaving the city can only be a way to show his attitude.
What attitude does Yuan Shao want to show?
Thinking about Yuan Shao''s previous words, he was naturally opposed to Dong Zhuo''s attitude of deposing the emperor.
??Li Ru combined these circumstances and immediately inferred from this that the Yuan family and Yuan Wei actually had no big objections to the deposed emperor. If the Yuan family had no objections, the matter of deposing the emperor would be considered a certainty.
??Because if Yuan Wei opposed the deposed emperor, then Yuan Shao and Yuan Wei were united in their opinions, and the father and son could launch an action against Dong Zhuo together. Why let Yuan Shao flee and lose control of the Xiyuan Eighth School Lieutenant Army?
It is precisely because of Yuan Shao''s contradictory behavior of only hanging up the knot but keeping the seal and ribbon, resigning but not resigning cleanly, that it shows that Yuan Wei agreed or acquiesced in deposing the emperor, and Yuan Shao''s opinions were inconsistent with Yuan Wei''s They are at odds with each other, so Yuan Shao is not tolerated by either the Yuan family or Dong Zhuo. The only way is to flee...
Li Ru looked at Dong Zhuo who still didn''t understand very well, and further explained: "Confucianism has heard that although Yuan Shao is tall, he is a commoner and cannot be treated like Yuan Wei."
?Dong Zhuo said "Oh", I thought Yuan Shao was the eldest son and could speak well. I would have known to call Yuan Shu, which would have saved me so much trouble.
Li Ru smiled and said: "It is a good thing that the Yuan family is at odds. Ming Gong can divide it and induce it."
Dong Zhuo nodded and said, "Just Yi Wenyou."
****************
??The news of Yuan Shao''s resignation and running away swept Luoyang like a gust of wind.
After all, the Yuan family is the leader of the Qingliu gentry, and every move attracts attention. How can such a dramatic thing happen to the Yuan family, from the gentry to the common people in Luoyang City, not to be surprised?
This news naturally reached Cao Cao’s ears.
??Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and then he jumped up, rushed to the stable at home, took out the horse, and drove it straight out of the east gate.
Outside Luoyang City, there was a steady stream of people, but Cao Cao saw only a bleak autumn wind, fallen leaves with red leaves, and long yellow sand. No familiar figure could be seen anywhere he looked.
??Cao Cao knew that Yuan Shao had already gone far, but he still had some hope. After riding his horse for three to five miles, he reluctantly slowed down his horse and walked slowly along the road with complicated thoughts.
Yuan Shao, Yuan Benchu, you actually left like this? !
Why are you like this?
Is Luoyang too big to accommodate you?
Conflicts between concubines and concubines have been common in all aristocratic families since ancient times. Cao Cao was fortunate to be exempted from such disputes. He was also well aware of the discord between the two sons of the Yuan family, but he did not expect that the conflict between concubines and concubines would worsen. To the point that Yuan Shao ran away from home.
It turns out that since the last incident involving General He entering the palace, Cao Cao thought that Yuan Shao had compromised with the Yuan family, had to endure hardships and was greedy for official status, so he deliberately distanced himself from Yuan Shao. He stayed away from Yuan Shao several times when he saw him. Now, It seems that this is not the case, otherwise Yuan Shao would not have to resign and flee, so he feels a little complicated at this time.
Cao Cao followed the road and walked to a small forest in the east of the city. Suddenly he felt that the forest in front of him seemed familiar, so he dismounted, led the horse, and slowly approached the small forest.
The grove was not very big. Cao Cao walked about twenty or thirty steps inside and arrived at a one-foot-square clearing in the middle of the grove. He suddenly saw a large black stone hidden in the weeds in the middle of the clearing. He couldn''t help but feel a little dazed - The shadows of the trees are mottled, the sunlight is sparsely scattered, and the wind blows the leaves, making bursts of whining sounds.
??On the clearing in the woods, a layer of dead leaves and grass has been spread. It is obvious that no one comes here often.
It turns out this is this place, we haven’t been there for a long time——
Cao Cao tied his horse to a tree nearby, walked slowly to the **** stone, climbed up the stone, and sat down. The big stone that used to take some effort to climb up when he was a child can now be climbed up with just a little help. .
??This is the place where he, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu''er often come. They used to play here, practice martial arts here, talk about military affairs here, and give advice here...
??Cao Cao vaguely saw the figures of three children moving in front of his eyes, running and playing, playing with each other -
At that time, the three of them struck each other with swords and swore to be good brothers for the rest of their lives and to become great heroes who could help the Han Dynasty together...
?At that time, the three of them were here learning the art of war, arranging their troops, using stones from the ground as soldiers, and making cities out of sand. Their faces were red and their ears were red with arguments, and they were frothing at the mouth...
?At that time, the three of them stole the family''s money here, bought wine and meat, and drank until they were drunk without telling the adults. Then they went back and were spanked so hard that they could not sleep for several days...
?At that time, the three of them were planning to rob other people''s new grains. After the three of them succeeded in robbing others, they threw the new grains on the road...
Cao Cao looked at it, a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth, but it quickly disappeared.
?This is the happiest and most innocent time for the three of them, but now their hearts have been separated, and the people who have left have left...
When I was a child, I didn’t need to know too much, and I really didn’t know too much. When I grew up, I was forced to understand. Everything about family, money, position, relationships, etc. buried the original truth in my heart.
??Having arrived here, Cao Cao could hardly remember that the three of them had this place when they were children, a place they called the secret fortress.
"Brother Benchu, after we say goodbye, we are far apart. I hope you and I can still see each other one day, and then we can get drunk together again..." Cao Cao sighed. It was a pity that he didn''t know that Yuan Shao was leaving, otherwise he would at least be prepared. A person who practices wine is the best, so I can only make up for it when we have the opportunity to meet in the future.
?? Cao Cao was silent for a long time, and when he was about to turn over from the stone, he felt something strange on the surface of the stone. He quickly lowered his head and saw that there were some new carvings on the top of the stone that formed the four words - "See you soon."
Cao Cao couldn''t help but sigh: "Brother Benchu, see you later..."
