Yan Xiang's speech was a bit surprising, but it was reasonable.

He avoided the important with this sentence, and actually threw aside the news brought by Feng Fang, but detained the identity that they were all Yuan Shu's former officials, so that Qiao Rui, Zhang Xun and others could not refute it.

The funeral is by no means as simple as sending Yuan Shu to the ground, there is a problem that must be solved first: if the imperial court decides that it is wrong for Yuan Shu to occupy Nanyang, then what should they do, should they accept the evaluation of the imperial court, admit that Yuan Shu was wrong, or rise up to fight?

admit that Yuan Shu is wrong, then Yuan Shao is also wrong, and the Yuan family is wrong, so how to solve the matter of Dong Zhuo killing the Yuan family? Even if the affairs of the Yuan family may be put aside, what about the vital interests of these people? They are Yuan Shu's former officials, and everything Yuan Shu does has their shadow. Yuan Shu is wrong, they are wrong, this stain is difficult to wash away.

Therefore, without Sun Ce's mobilization, they themselves must first consider the consequences.

Sun Ce said secretly, this is Wang Yun's first step to death. However, Nanyang is only a county, and there are no super-powerful famous families or Wang clans in Yuan Shu's old department, and there is a giant that attracts more attention than them in Hebei. I don't know how Wang Yun is going to treat Yuan Shao. If this is the case, will Yuan Shao use the edict as toilet paper?

However, the world is unpredictable, who knows if Wang Yun picks a soft persimmon and tries it with Nanyang first? Cao Cao was Yuan Shao's old department, and Wang Yunneng accepted Cao Cao and appointed him as the lieutenant of Si Li, perhaps to express reconciliation with Yuan Shao and solve the trouble of Nanyang for Yuan Shao.

In short, others are unreliable, the key is yourself.

Sun Ce sat quietly, looking at Yan Xiang and the others. Yan Xiang was different from the others, he was not only the most powerful of Yuan Shu's old department, but also one of the two ministers that Yuan Shu saw before his death, his nephew Qin Mu was in charge of Sun Ce's personal guard, and his niece Qin Luo had just married Huang Zhong, a general under Sun Ce, so it was impossible to say that he would leave it out.

Listening to Yan Xiang's words, Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui and the others were silent and thought about each other. Feng Fang was a little anxious. He coughed, reminded everyone to pay attention, and then said: "General, although the edict has not been issued, it is only Cao Cao who passed on the oral message, but the Son of Heaven is in power, and the righteousness of the monarch and the minister is clear, if you sit idly by, I am afraid it is not appropriate." Moreover, Dong Zhuo has been sentenced, Chang'an is stable, people's minds are returned, and it is reasonable to be reasonable, so it is not appropriate to forcibly obstruct it. ”

Yan Xiang glanced at Feng Fang coldly and snorted, "Feng Zizheng, when did the general say that you would not be allowed to go back?" You can rest assured, I have been ordered by the general to raise funds, anyone who wants to go home, we will send them out of the country, along the way counties and the pass pavilion post will provide convenient accommodation, if the conditions are poor, we will also fund some travel expenses, will not let you not be unable to return home. However, whether Chang'an will be peaceful from now on, I'm afraid it remains to be seen. ”

Feng Fang was so frightened by Yan Xiang that he couldn't get off the stage, his face was red, but he was surprised. Listening to Yan Xiang's meaning, Sun Ce has already made a decision? He had just reported to Sun Ce about Chang'an, how could Sun Ce make a decision in advance. Or is Yan Xiang making decisions on Sun Ce's behalf to show that he is trusted and reused by Sun Ce?

"Yan Jun is ready?"

"Otherwise, what do you think I've been busy with these past two days?" Yan Xiang said angrily: "While you were talking, the grain ships were heading north along the Zhushui, sending the grain from Huyang and Yucheng to the counties along the way, so that they could be eaten by the returnees. ”

Feng Fang breathed a sigh of relief. Since Sun Ce did not prevent the Guanzhong people from returning to their hometown, then he had nothing to worry about.

Yan Xiang turned around and saluted Qiao Rui and Zhang Xun. These two people have different identities, and he is much more polite.

"Qiao Yuanmao, Zhang Yuangong, you are all old friends of General Yuan, you won't say goodbye, right?"

Zhang Xun sighed: "Yan Yuantu, don't worry, I will go to Ruyang and send Yuan Highway into the ground." ”

Qiao Rui also nodded and said, "Naturally, I want to go." Once you have a fellowship, how can you not see him for the last time. ”

Yan Xiang nodded, sat back, turned his head to Wan Ling Du and said: "Zixu, you bother to count how many people want to return to their hometowns, and pay special attention to two types of people: one is those who are in difficulty in life and need funding, and the other is those who have positions. Those who are in difficulty need funding, you can count them well, report a list, and the Taishou Mansion will allocate money to the past. Those who have positions should arrange for someone to take over in a timely manner, and don't delay official business. ”

Du Xun hesitated for a moment. "Everyone?"

"Everyone." Sun Ce took over the conversation, and his tone was very affirmative. "Come and go freely, never forcefully."

"Whoa." Du Xun nodded and bowed slightly to Sun Ce. Sun Ce knew that Du Xi would soon resign, and he wanted to go home. "Zixu, when the meeting is over, you can stay for a while."

Du Xun was a little surprised, but he still nodded in agreement.

Sun Ce asked Feng Fang some more questions, mainly what he had seen and heard along the way, such as whether Chang'an's city defense was strong, whether the people's hearts were stable, whether there were hungry people on the roadside, and so on. Feng Fang's answer did not satisfy Sun Ce, he cared very little about some things, and it can be said that this trip was very incompetent. A qualified emissary is not only to convey the opinions of both sides, but also to find out the intelligence of the other side's territory, which is not possible at all for a person like him.

Sun Ce was very disappointed, although he didn't say anything, Feng Fang felt it, and his heart was even more uncomfortable. As soon as the meeting was over, he left in a hurry. When he got home, as soon as he entered the door, he yelled to collect his packing and prepare to go home. Feng Wan, who was talking to her mother, Mrs. Ma, heard it and hurriedly greeted her.

"You just got home, where are you going?"

"Go back to Guanzhong, go back to Duling." Feng Fang shouted angrily: "Nanyang is not our home. ”

Feng Wan was taken aback. "Why do you want to go back to Guanzhong, there are Xiliang soldiers in Guanzhong."

"Dong Zhuo is dead, the people of Xiliang are finished, the Son of Heaven is in Guanzhong, and Guanzhong may become Gyeonggi again. If you don't go back at this time, will you go back when the farm house is occupied by the homeless? Feng Fang flicked his sleeves and panted with anger. I'm, at me. Yan Xiang, this dog thing, is really ungrateful, and I don't want to think about who suggested that Yuan Highway let him be the master in the first place, and now he actually treats me like this, when I am what? ”

Feng Wan's face changed a few times, and he stopped talking.

"What do you want to say?" Feng Fang saw it in his eyes, and he was even more angry. "Do you still want to stay in Nanyang as a craftsman? You are my Feng Fang's daughter, you can't learn from the village husband and wife, and study what looms. From now on, you are not allowed to show your face, you will lose your reputation, and you will be looked down upon by your husband's family in the future. As soon as he thought of his daughter's marriage, Feng Fang was even more depressed, sighing, and even regretful.

Feng Wan bit her lip, thought about it for a long time, and took advantage of Feng Fang's inattention, turned around and slipped away, and went straight to Zhang Zifu's house next door.
