Chapter 776: Unprecedented Expansion

Yecheng, Council Hall.

Sima Yi looked at Yecheng's household registration, field registers, the number of grain depots, arsenal records, and tax registers, and his hands trembled a little with excitement.

Yuan Shao's strength back then was unprecedentedly strong, not for nothing...... The richness of Yecheng's heritage is far beyond his imagination.

In Sima Yi's impression, it seemed that except for Jinling City, he had never encountered such a rich city again.

The name of the first prince in the world, but it is not called in vain, Yecheng can have today's development, I have to say that Yuan Shao has made great contributions, of course, he has indeed done a lot of wrong things over the years.

When Sima Yi sighed with emotion, Yuan Tan smiled on the side: "Zhongda, how is it?" Yuan's family background is quite rich, right? ”

Sima Yi was stunned when he heard this.

What is Yuan's family background?

He turned his head to look at Yuan Tan suspiciously.

As if sensing the suspicion in Sima Yi's eyes, Yuan Tan immediately explained to him: "The prime minister has already promised Yuan to represent the imperial court to crown Yuan as the lord of Jizhou and lead the four states!" ”

"The Lord of the Four States?" Sima Yi was suddenly surprised.

The potter promised to make Yuan Tan the lord of Jizhou, and Sima Yi could still understand it...... But let him lead the four states?

Isn't that a fuss? The Jinling army in this Hebei land fought several fierce battles, and finally calmed down, and finally let him lead the four states?

Not all such a big battle was fought in vain.

"Yuan Gongzi, are you mistaken? Cheng really let you lead the four states? ”

Yuan Tan took Yecheng, looking a little arrogant, he said: "Originally, the prime minister did just promise me to be the lord of Jizhou, but before he died, he said that my father intended to pass on his throne to me, so Yuan Mou dedicated the city to the prime minister, in a sense, it was a loss...... Let me lead the four states, it's fair to think about it, besides, I'm still a hero, who has ever had the merit of winning Yecheng? ”

Sima Yi smiled dryly: "That's, that'...... Yuan Gongzi's meritorious achievements have laid an indefatigable foundation for the Han court, and our younger generations should be cited as models...... In the matter of the Commander-in-Chief, I will also ask the Prime Minister for my son. ”

Yuan Tan nodded with satisfaction and laughed, and for a while the smug energy was overflowing.

Gao Gan stood behind Yuan Tan and didn't say a word, his expression was a little cold, and he looked at Yuan Tan's eyes unkindly.

When he was young, he heard Sima Yi say: "The prime minister has now spread the news of the loss of Yecheng, thinking that it is to be able to defeat Yuan Shao quickly...... On our side, we should also add a fire to add some help to the prime minister. ”

Yuan Tan put away his smile and said, "How does Zhongda plan to give the prime minister some help?" ”

Sima Yi smiled: "Didn't you arrest some officials in Yecheng before?" Let one or two of him go out, let them go to Yuan Shao's side in person, and tell Yuan Shao the news of the loss of Yecheng, so as to confuse his mind, so it can be done. ”

Yuan Tan shook his head and said, "Zhongda, you kid is still too young, and this planning committee really lacks some heat." ”

Yuan Tan now seems to be the lord of the four states, and he dares to teach Sima Yi a direct lesson.

If this were someone else, it might have been provoked directly, but Sima Yi was very urban, and he was not angry, just smiled and asked Yuan Tan politely: "Dare to ask the eldest prince, Yi's method, I don't know what is lacking?" ”

Yuan Tan's eyes showed a hint of hatred: "You are too soft-hearted towards Yuan Shao...... What Yecheng officials sent to report to him? Just send Yuan Shang's bones back to him, and he will understand it directly when he sees it. ”

What the!

As soon as he finished saying this, Sima Yi and Gao Gan were immediately surprised.

"Yuan Shang's corpse ......" Sima Yi remembered the pile of sheep and scorpions he saw in the toilet of the matchmaker's house a while ago, and couldn't help but shudder: "This is too poisonous, isn't it?" Is this necessary? ”

Gao Gan spoke for the first time: "Xiansi, you are too ruthless!" That's your real father! ”

"I don't have a father." Yuan Tan said lightly: "In my heart, my own father has died a long time ago. ”

Sima Yi hesitated slightly: "In this matter, I think it's better to send a letter to ask the teacher what he means." ”

Yuan Tan waved his hand and said, "With me here, why bother asking the prime minister?" The matter was settled. ”

Sima Yi glanced at Yuan Tan and said, "This matter is very important, but I can't make decisions on my own. ”

Yuan Tan laughed: "You don't have to worry about this matter, I will deal with it myself, and when I turn around and ask the prime minister, I will explain it to the prime minister." ”

Sima Yi sighed, said a few more casual words to Yuan Tan, and then got up to leave.

After Sima Yi left, Yuan Tan immediately turned around and reprimanded Gao Gandao: "Shicai is in front of Sima Yi, how dare you refute my face?" ”

Gao Gan didn't expect Yuan Tan to turn his face and not recognize people, and frowned: "I'm doing it for your good!" Don't you even want a wind review? ”

Yuan Tan said coldly: "It's none of your business, from now on, I will be the Jizhou Mu of the Imperial Court, the lord of the four states, you had better be polite to me." ”

Gao Gan gritted his teeth: "I forgot about this matter, let me ask you, when you invited me to take Yecheng, you said that you rebelled as a last resort to save your life, how did you get involved with the potter?" ”

Yuan Tan sneered: "Joke! Without Prime Minister Tao Cheng to support and respond, you and I can seize Yecheng, and how can we protect it in the future, I showed you a clear way, you don't thank me, but blame me, what's the reason? ”

Gao Gan took a deep breath and said, "Okay, then even if that's the case, I'll ask you again...... The potter has promised to entitle you as the pastor of Jizhou, how can you still be the lord of the four states? ”

Yuan Tan said lightly: "I have made outstanding achievements, I have captured Yecheng and made this great achievement, I want him to be the lord of the four states, and it is not an excessive request!" ”

Gao Gan looked at Yuan Tan's appearance, and suddenly seemed to think that he was a little naΓ―ve.

"Aren't you afraid that the potter will kill him in the future?"

Yuan Tan shook his head and said, "Don't worry about this, the potter has a very close relationship with me, and he still has the name of a gentleman in the world, how can he bear me?" You are completely thinking too much, from now on, you will follow me, all big and small, I will be in charge, to ensure that you have no worries for the rest of your life. ”

Gao Gan looked at Yuan Tan, who was already unprecedentedly inflated, sighed and didn't speak.

You make such a request, and you say that the potter doesn't want to kill you?

Is the potter really such a good heart?

……

"I have to find a way to kill Yuan Tan." The potter put down the slip in his hand, which was a secret report that Sima Yi secretly wrote to him.

Zhuge Liang was beside him, and he picked up the slip sent by Sima Yi suspiciously, unfolded it and looked at it, and then took a deep breath: "Yuan Tan wants to be the lord of the four states, how can he be so shameless?" ”

The potter smiled helplessly: "The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant, and he is not a good stubble." ”

Zhuge Liang said to Tao Shang: "What does the teacher plan to do with Yuan Tan?" ”

The potter pondered for a while and said, "I won't deal with him personally, but I already have a way to deal with him...... You will visit Tian Feng in a while, tell him all about what has happened recently, and I will write a letter to Sima Yi here. ”
