Chapter 304 – Stealing Nanpi
May 18th, 185 AD.
A messenger from Kong Rong arrived in Ye. It was Wang Xiu, the strategist of Kong Rong himself.
"The traitor Yuan Shao enthroned his son as the Emperor and abused his power as he sees fit, which is unacceptable to us, the Han loyalists. I will be frank. We hope to establish a coalition against the rampaging Yuan Shao, and we want you to be our leader of this coalition."
Tong, as usual, sat on the throne within the main government hall. Jia Xu and Xun Yu stood bellowed him by his sides while the rest of the officers stood in rows, facing the center walkway where Wang Xiu stood.
It was as if this was a throne room of a royalty.
Wang Xiu was nervous from the stare of all officers and Tong. He thought that he was seeking an audience with the Emperor.
Tong stared down at Wang Xiu, but the corner of his eyes glanced at his clan chat. Jia Xu and Xun Yu were updating the current movements of all neighbors.
