Three Kingdoms: Madam, I am a decent person

Chapter 585 Yuan Shu: Honey water, give me honey water

When the south gate of Shouchun City was breached, several generals sent by Ji Ling to the imperial palace finally arrived at Yuan Shu's side.

Yuan Shu was watching the singer dance with dozens of civil and military officials!
Seeing several generals coming over, Yuan Shu looked bewildered and asked, "Why are you here in the palace instead of guarding the city?"

The young general on the left looked at Yuan Shu like this, and clenched the hilt of his sword with his right hand, his teeth almost breaking.

Several other generals hurriedly scolded him.

The young general then took a step back, suppressed his anger, lowered his head, and no longer looked at Yuan Shu.

When Yuan Shu and the other civil and military officials saw the generals in such a state, they were so frightened that their faces turned pale.

Yuan Shu asked in a trembling voice: "What are you doing?"

A big man came up and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, General Ji Ling asked us to escort Your Majesty out of the city through the palace tunnel."

"The enemy's attack was so numerous that we could not resist it."

"The rest of the generals were all killed in the battle."

Yuan Shu was completely panicked at this point, and asked in a trembling voice: "The enemy has entered the city? Then why is the palace so quiet?"

The big man pointed to the sound of fighting in the distance and said, "The enemy is about to attack!"

"If you don't leave, it will be too late!"

"Or, Your Majesty, are you willing to live and die with Shouchun?"

"If so, we will follow your majesty and die in battle. We will never live in vain!"

Only then did Yuan Shu turn around and leave.

The singers and women around followed him and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! Your Majesty, take us with you!"

Civil and military officials followed closely.

Yuan Shu rushed into the underground passage while ordering his generals to cover his retreat and block all the singers and women outside the tunnel.

Are you kidding me?
We are running for our lives now, so why would we have the mood to take these women with us?

Taking these women with him would only slow down his escape speed.

The singer and the woman were stopped by the general at the entrance to the underground passage and actually tried to rush through.

The generals were not merciful people either.

They hacked and killed dozens of women in a row, and these singers and women dared not to step forward. Instead, they squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, crying loudly.

Yuan Shu rushed from the underground passage.

Finally, he escaped from the underground passage.

Following him were only dozens of civil and military officials.

Yuan Shu stood at the exit of the underground passage, looked back at Shouchun City, and asked in confusion: "My dear ministers, where should we go now?"

An official took a few deep breaths, suppressed his inner fear, and then said, "Your Majesty, let's go to Yecheng!"

"Although Lord Yuan, the governor of Jizhou, has been arguing with your Majesty for many years."

"But you are brothers after all."

"As long as Your Majesty is willing to give him the imperial seal and make him the emperor, he will definitely let us go."

"Before Cao Cao surrounded us, when we sent envoys to negotiate this condition, didn't Jizhou Mu Yuan Gong want to agree? But he was stopped by those two scums Ju Shou and Tian Feng."

When Yuan Shu heard what the official said, he said excitedly: "Yes, yes, I forgot about this!"

"Besides, this Xuzhou Mu is his son-in-law."

"I am the elder of Xuzhou Mu after all, and he dares to treat me like this."

"When I see my brother, I will definitely impeach him and let my brother deal with him!"

A group of people ran towards the north.

After walking for a long time, they stopped as the sun set.

They collapsed in a small grove of trees.

An official wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at Yuan Shu who had already fallen to the ground like a pile of mud, and wiped the sword at his waist with his right hand.

No more.

There is no future at all if we continue to flee with this useless Yuan Shu.

Kill Yuan Shu and take his head to see the governor of Xuzhou. Perhaps you can earn some merit.

But as soon as he drew his sword, many people looked over.

The official looked at the green eyes of the crowd and finally suppressed his anger.

If I take action and kill Yuan Shu, they will then kill me. They can take Yuan Shu's head away to please the governor of Xuzhou, and they can also gain a good reputation by using the reason of killing me as a "rebel".

Thinking of this, the official got up, slowly backed away, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Seeing this, everyone fled.

After a while, only a few close ministers were left around Yuan Shu.

Several close ministers looked at each other, sometimes wanting to leave, sometimes looking back at Yuan Shu, feeling conflicted.

Yuan Shu lay on the ground for a long time before his fatigue was relieved a little.

Feeling the strange silence around him, Yuan Shu opened his eyes, got up, and looked around.

The dozens of officials who had followed him before were all gone.

Now there are only a few close ministers left around me!

Yuan Shu's face turned pale, and he asked in a trembling voice: "Where are the people? Where are the ministers?"

Several close ministers also became a little irritable.

Everyone has left, and you are still my love!

A close minister said, "How can I say 'Lord'? You are a fugitive now, Yuan Shu. Do you still think you are His Majesty?"

Yuan Shu was so angry that he suppressed his fear.

Pulling out the sword from his waist, Yuan Shu stabbed at the minister who was choking him, and said sternly: "You eunuch, I, Yuan Shu, am a descendant of three officials for four generations, and you are not someone who can defeat me--"

Yuan Shu's words came to an abrupt end.

His attacking movement also paused.

The moment he drew his sword, several close ministers around him looked ferocious and drew their swords and stabbed him!
Several swords pierced Yuan Shu's body.

Yuan Shu froze.

His face was full of disbelief.

These eunuchs dared to murder the emperor!
Several close ministers stabbed Yuan Shu, and they were all a little scared.

Seeing Yuan Shu spitting blood and staggering, they screamed and fled.

Soon, the setting sun was as bright as blood. In the grove, only Yuan Shu was standing there, with several swords sticking out of his body.

As the screams of his close ministers faded away, Yuan Shu finally couldn't hold on any longer. His body slowly fell down, and he lay on the ground in a strange and twisted posture.

His side face landed on the ground.

Looking at the sunset in front of him, Yuan Shu's mind was filled with memories.

The memories of those years when, as a descendant of the fourth generation and third princess of the Yuan family, and as a rear general, I had my way in Nanyang and Yangzhou.

How did it come to this in just a few years?

He was a descendant of the fourth generation and third princess of the Yuan family, but he was actually brought to this point by a junior like Zhang Sui, the governor of Xuzhou.

Yuan Shu felt that his vision was becoming increasingly blurry.

He felt a little cold and was shivering.

At this moment, a voice exclaimed from behind: "He's here!"

Yuan Shu struggled and tried to turn his head.

But he no longer had the strength.

After a while, a group of people came over, surrounding a man.

They were Yan Xiang, Liu Fu, Lu Su and others.

In front of them, Zhang Sui walked over.

Liu Fu followed Zhang Sui and said excitedly, "I told you, he will definitely escape this way, my lord!"

When Yuan Shu heard Liu Fu's voice, he said in a hoarse voice, "My dear Liu Fu?"

When Yan Xiang saw Yuan Shu like this, tears immediately burst out of his eyes.

Zhang Sui came to Yuan Shu and squatted in front of him.

Seeing Yuan Shu in such a miserable state, Zhang Sui felt mixed emotions.

Although Yuan Shu's bones are now in the tomb, he can still be considered one of the heroes of the late Han Dynasty.

Now, this is the situation.

Liu Fu did not come forward.

Instead, Yan Xiang staggered over, stopped behind Zhang Sui's left side, knelt down towards Yuan Shu, and covered his face with his dry hands.

When Yuan Shu saw Yan Xiang, his lifeless eyes shrank, and then gradually lost focus. His voice gradually became lower and lower, "Lord Yan, I am really thirsty."

Yan Xiang looked at Zhang Sui.

Seeing this, Lu Su, who was not far away, took off a water bottle from his waist, walked quickly forward and handed it to Yan Xiang.

Yan Xiang looked at Lu Su and Zhang Sui with gratitude, opened the lid of the kettle, knelt in front of Yuan Shu, and put the mouth of the kettle to Yuan Shu's mouth.

The cold water rushed to Yuan Shu's lips.

Yuan Shu did not drink it, but said: "I am going to die."

"How did I end up like this in my life?"

"I heard that if a person drinks honey water before he dies, he will be born into a good family in the next life."

"Mr. Yan, for the sake of our relationship as master and servant, please give me some honey water."

Yan Xiang's eyes were blurred with tears, and he choked up and said, "Where can I find honey water for you? This place is so far from the palace..."

Before Yan Xiang finished speaking, Zhang Sui looked up at Yan Xiang, stood up, and sighed, "He's dead."
