Chapter 135
Chapter 135
Just as Liu Yao was enjoying the deliciousness of the lamb leg and biting into it, he heard Gongsun Zan recommending him to be the leader of the alliance.
He stared at Gongsun Zan who was sitting quietly beside him, his eyes full of confusion and astonishment.
This made Liu Yao speechless for a moment, "Brother Bogui, you..."
At this moment, Cao Cao couldn't help but stand up suddenly, with an unquestionable firmness in his voice, echoing Gongsun Zan's proposal.
"Meng De also agrees! In terms of military exploits, Liu Ziyi's military exploits are illustrious and unmatched; in terms of bloodline, he is a relative of the Han Dynasty; and in terms of official position, he is also prominent. Such a person, taking on the position of leader is indeed what everyone expects, and it couldn't be more appropriate!
It was at this time that Yuan Shu was somewhat restless.
In terms of family background, who can rival four generations of three officials? Moreover, as the legitimate son of the Yuan family, he can still compete for the position of leader.
He secretly thought that if he could hold the reins of the leader, he could dispatch Yuan Shao and even the heroes of the world in the name of justice.
By then, thousands of troops will obey my orders, head straight to Luoyang, annihilate the bandits, and revive the Han Dynasty. By then, his reputation will surely be at its peak, surpassing the emerging Liu Yao, and become a real world-renowned person. The focus.
When Yuan Shu thought of this, the corners of his mouth could not help but rise.
However, he also had to find a few people to cheer for him like Liu Yao, and finally, like ascending the throne, he had to decline three times. He had to show enough attitude, so that he could have the style of a noble family!
So, Yuan Shu began to search for his allies in this big tent.
This person must have some relationship with him, and his status cannot be too low.
Soon, he focused his attention on Sun Jian.
Soon, Yuan Shu's eyes were involuntarily focused on Sun Jian.
Sun Jian, the powerful governor of Changsha, and he, the lord of Nanyang, were adjacent to each other, but they each had their own world. Nanyang has been a land of fish and rice since ancient times, rich and prosperous; Changsha, because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the past The people's livelihood was in decline and needed to be revived.
Thinking of this, Yuan Shu secretly calculated that his generosity to Sun Jian in the past, including money, food and armor, was for today's needs.
Now, Sun Wentai should also come out to repay his favor, right?
When he thought of this, Yuan Shu kept looking at Sun Jian, frequently winking and gesturing at him, hoping that he would see him.
And Sun Jian, the lion on the battlefield, turned into the most comfortable traveler at the banquet at this moment. He sat at the table, heroic and unrestrained, chewing delicacies with big mouthfuls, and the wine went down his throat, feeling refreshed, as if the disturbances in the outside world had nothing to do with him.
Yuan Shu's anxiety and expectation, in his eyes immersed in the feast of taste buds, were like a breeze blowing across the lake, leaving only circles of imperceptible ripples.
Sun Jian, a fierce general known for his skill in archery and horsemanship, was brave and fearless. He was like a sharp sword out of its sheath on the battlefield, invincible. As a pioneer, he was undoubtedly the sharpest point in the team. Every charge shone with unyielding light, which was daunting.
But unfortunately, his martial arts value was too high, and his political skills were almost a mess. Such a person could not be a good leader, but he could be a good brother.
In this situation, Yuan Shu's anxiety and Sun Jian's contentment formed a sharp contrast.
On the field, not only Yuan Shu was a little anxious, but Yuan Shao on the side also looked around anxiously to find supporters.
Now Cao Cao openly supported Liu Yao, how could he not be anxious?
Since ancient times, there has been a rule for the princes' alliance, that is, the initiator is often the candidate for the leader of the alliance.
Because if you want to be the initiator, you must have the qualifications and prestige to call on everyone to come to the alliance.
The initiator now is Cao Cao, and Chenliu is his territory, so Cao Cao is qualified to be the leader.
But now, Cao Cao, who is qualified to be the leader, actually openly stands on Liu Yao's side. I am afraid that other princes will subconsciously lean towards Liu Yao.
"Everyone, please be quiet and listen to me. As the saying goes, if the name is not right, the words will not flow, and if the words are not flowing, the things will not be accomplished. In this chaotic world, prestige and reputation are the cornerstones of great achievements. The Yuan family has been a noble family for generations, and four generations have assisted the government. Its family is the most prominent in the world."
"I, Yuan Shu, as a descendant of the Yuan family, inherit the legacy of my ancestors, and I should stand up and shoulder the great cause. Let me ask, who is more suitable than me to take on the important task of the leader, lead the heroes, and conspire for the world's great plan?"
At this time, Yuan Shu stood up anxiously and began to speak for himself.
Liu Yao was just watching for fun.
The Skeleton King was so anxious that he even recommended himself.
The people sitting aroundThe various princes who were standing there all stared at Yuan Shu as if they were looking at a clown.
It seemed that the Yuan family had no one left, so the eldest son of the Yuan family had to come out and canvass for votes for him personally.
At this time, Yuan Shu seemed to know that he had lost his composure, and immediately sat back with a red face.
Yuan Shao, who was standing aside, rubbed his temples with a headache.
How did he meet such a big **.
Didn't you tell everyone that the Yuan family also wanted to compete for the position of leader? As the number one family in the world, you would lose face if you did this.
Yuan Shao had no choice but to wink at Yuan Yi and others.
Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, immediately stood up first.
"Everyone, what Yuan Gonglu said is unreasonable. The Yuan family has many disciples. If Yuan Benchu is the leader, it will definitely be twice the result with half the effort."
But now, it is too late for Yuan Shao to turn the tables.
Because of Yuan Shu's nonsense, everyone thought that the Yuan family was not well prepared, so they were desperate and recommended themselves to the position.
In the end, Kong Rong and others all supported Liu Yao without exception.
And Yuan Shao was assigned as the deputy leader as compensation.
Yuan Shu saw Liu Yao ascend to the position of leader, and his anger was like a raging flame, almost burning his internal organs to ashes.
Why is it this Liu Yao again! ?
What made him even more uneasy was that the position of deputy leader fell into Yuan Shao's hands. Yuan Shu felt mixed emotions. As the legitimate son of the Yuan family, the concept of "the difference between legitimate and illegitimate children, the difference between noble and humble" that he had been instilled with since childhood was like a sharp blade, cutting his heart fiercely.
A bastard born to a concubine! Why does he stand above him!
Yuan Shu was getting angrier and angrier, but at this point, he was powerless to change the situation. He could only bow to Liu Yao and Yuan Shao unwillingly.
And he hated these people from then on, Liu Yao, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian!
You all just wait! Wait!! I, Yuan Gonglu, will not give up like this!
