"Can anyone tell me what's going on?"

Yuan Tan had a gloomy face, standing where Yuan Chang and the others had stayed before, looking at the subordinates who had fallen to the ground and had made him pretend to be thieves, and his monstrous anger rose up. Yuan Tan didn't care about the life or death of these people, what he cared about was that since these people were dead, wouldn't his chance to gain the favor of the eldest lady of the Zhen family be gone?

The soldiers under Yuan Tan's command surrounded him, all of them bowed their heads, and they didn't even dare to breathe too much. They all knew that if they provoked Yuan Tan at this moment, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"The eldest son, the two of them died a little suspiciously. ”

Just when Yuan Tan didn't know how to vent his anger, the shouts of his cronies came from not far away. In the other direction, there are other cronies searching for clues.

"What's suspicious?"

Yuan Tan walked over unhurriedly, his face still gloomy. As for the words of his cronies, Yuan Tan didn't care. At the moment, there was only one thing on his mind, and that was that he had lost the opportunity to perform in front of beautiful women. However, Yuan Tan is not stupid, and he will not say what he thinks in his heart, so as not to chill his subordinates.

"The eldest prince, my subordinates have checked the others, and they are all killed by a single blow. Judging by the wounds, there are masters with guns and halberds. However, the two No. 4 and No. 5 were not gunshot wounds, nor halberd wounds, judging by the shape of the wounds, they should be knife wounds. Moreover, there was not only one wound on their body, they had wounds in many places, and in the end they were defeated. Also, the subordinates feel that this knife technique seems to be a little familiar. ”

Yuan Tan listened to his cronies' explanations with a gloomy face, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Where is Yuan San, who is in charge of this operation?"

"That's right, that's right, it's Yuan San!"

After listening to Yuan Tan's words, the cronie's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but exclaim. Then, he seemed to remember that Yuan Tan was right in front of him, so he closed his mouth and stood aside silently.

"You mean that No. 4 and No. 5 were killed by Yuan San, what the hell is going on?"

Yuan Tan, who was already very irritable, became even more irritable after listening to the words of his cronies.

"Eldest son, Yuan San is here. ”

At this moment, the shouts of cronies from the other direction rang out. Hearing this, Yuan Tan immediately quickened his pace and walked over, and at this moment he only wanted to know what was going on. However, what disappointed Yuan Tan was that in front of him was the corpse of Yuan San, whose body had long been cold.

As the person in charge of this operation, Yuan San died, wouldn't all the clues be broken? Wouldn't his idea of holding a beauty also be broken?

"The eldest son, my subordinates have a word, I don't know whether to say it or not. ”

"You have been following Ben Gongzi for many years, so if you have anything to say, just say it. ”

Although Yuan Tan's mood is extremely bad at the moment, he wants to vent. However, no matter how he says it, his cronies want to speak, and he must also listen to it, Yuan Tan still knows what to do when it comes to buying people's hearts.

"The eldest prince, although the Yellow Turban Rebellion has been suppressed by the imperial court. However, there are many remnants of the Yellow Turban in Jizhou. The subordinates thought that the disappearance of the Zhen family might be related to the remnants of the Yellow Turban. ”

Yuan Tan frowned slightly, and asked puzzledly: "Having said that, how can the remnants of the Yellow Turban know the movements of the Zhen family." If this son hadn't already arranged for people to infiltrate the Zhen family, how would he know that they would come to this Zhuangzi for a vacation this time. Besides, there has been no news of the Yellow Turban near Wuji County for a long time, and it has nothing to do with them. ”

"Big Prince, this Yuan San is the key!"

Yuan Tan's brows furrowed even deeper, and he was also a little dissatisfied with the behavior of his cronies. After saying something directly, he dared to hang his appetite.

"What do you mean by that?"

Dissatisfied, Yuan Tan didn't show it, and still asked with a smile.

"The eldest prince, the fourth and fifth were killed by Yuan San's knife, while the others died at the hands of others. Therefore, his subordinates speculated that Yuan San had bad thoughts, colluded with the remnants of the Yellow Turban, and took the opportunity to act. In this way, the causes of death of the fourth and fifth can be said to be over. In the end, maybe Yuan San and the remnants of the yellow turban shared the spoils unevenly, but they were wiped out. Eldest Prince, look at the scars on Yuan San's body, is there any difference?"

The cronies stopped here and stretched out their fingers to point to Yuan San's body lying on the ground.

"Looking at his wounds, it doesn't seem to be a knife wound. ”

The cronies nodded in response, and then explained: "Most of the wounds on Yuan San's body were caused by halberds, and they were exactly the same as other people's wounds, so Yuan San should have been injured by the master who used the halberd. And the long knives used by No. 4 and No. 5 were inserted into Yuan San's body, which might make people mistakenly think that the three of them died together. In fact, Yuan San was injured by the Yellow Turban Remnant, and in the end, in order to cover up the truth, the Yellow Turban Remnant used the long knives of No. 4 and No. 5 to give Yuan San a fatal blow. ”

After speaking, the cronies stood aside respectfully, waiting for Yuan Tan's order.

Of course, now Yuan Tan is on the verge of being irritable, in an extremely bad mood, and has no heart to think about it at all. Therefore, after listening to the words of this cronie, he has already believed seven or eight points, plus at this moment he also needs to vent his dissatisfaction. So, it didn't take long for a decision to come to mind.

"This son entrusted Yuan San with such a heavy responsibility, but this guy didn't want to serve his life, but colluded with the thieves and harmed the lives of the soldiers, which is really hateful. After going back, he buried the two old men in Yuan San's family. I heard that Yuan San's wife is also beautiful, so I will reward you. As for the other soldiers, they all fought to the death and did not retreat, and my son would be rewarded for his merits, and he sent a hundred buckets of grain, ten horses of silk, and ten pieces of money to the families of these people. ”

These subordinates did not complete Yuan Tan's task, and Yuan Tan was extremely dissatisfied. However, he also needs someone to work for him, so he still has to do the work of buying people's hearts.

Most of the anger in his heart had already been vented on Yuan San's body, and Yuan Tan had also felt a lot more comfortable. Therefore, in front of so many subordinates, the clear punishment of those who have merit and faults is naturally Yuan Tan's purpose. One is for Liwei, knowing the consequences of betrayal, then they will naturally not dare to have two hearts in the future, and the second is to buy people's hearts, as long as you don't betray and work hard, even if you die, you will treat your family well. In this case, how could the people below not sell their lives? This amount of money was just a surface for Yuan Tan, and he would not care at all.

"The eldest prince is benevolent, and his subordinates will definitely serve the death force!"

If Yuan San was still alive, I don't know how he would feel. dedicated to working for Yuan Tan, but in the end, he let his family get such miserable treatment, and his threats to No. 4 and No. 5 ended up happening to him. As the so-called evil is done a lot, the cycle of heavenly principles is still very reasonable.
