Chapter 54: Peace

Yuan Yao took Yu She, Wei Yan, Liao Hua and three hundred thieves all the way to Pingyu, a few days later, Yuan Yao and his party entered the territory of Pingyu County, and twenty miles away from Pingyu County, Yuan Yao and his party were intercepted.

Seeing that Qiao Rui, who had a cold face, was stopped in front of him with a thousand soldiers and horses, Yuan Yao smiled bitterly, stepped forward, and said to this Qiao Rui: "General Qiao, it is really ······ that you came to greet us in person."

Before Yuan Yao finished speaking, Qiao Rui's originally indifferent face turned into a wry smile: "Childe, this time the lord is really angry, you can ask for more blessings." ”

Yuan Yao had expected Yuan Shu to be angry, after all, he had done such a thing, and it would be strange if Yuan Shu was not angry at all, but looking at the thousand people behind Qiao Rui, Yuan Yao still felt a little strange, and asked curiously: "General Qiao, are you going to perform any military affairs?" ”

Qiao Rui's face was strange, and he said: "Childe, the lord is afraid that the prince will run away again this time, so he specially ordered me to lead a thousand soldiers and horses to bring the son back, and at the same time, the lord also asked me to tell General Yu and Wei Guard, saying that if the two of them help the prince again this time, they can be killed on the spot." ”

Hearing Qiao Rui's angry words, Yu Shi and Wei Yan glanced at each other, both of them seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.

Yuan Yao looked at Qiao Rui at this time, knowing that he was sent by Yuan Shu to prevent him from running away again, but fortunately, Yuan Yao didn't want to run anymore this time, and he wouldn't have any conflict with Qiao Rui. And Yuan Yao knew that with the words that Yuan Shu asked Qiao Rui to pass on to Yu Shi and Wei Yan, now Yu Shi and Wei Yan would definitely not help him, so even if Yuan Yao wanted to sneak away again, there would be no chance.

Since he can't run, he can only obediently follow Qiao Rui to see Yuan Shu. However, looking back at Liao Hua, who was nervous behind him, and the three hundred thieves under Yuan Liao Hua, who had already begun to hold simple weapons, Yuan Yao shook his head slightly, stepped forward and said to Qiao Rui: "General Qiao, I will go to see my father, but can these three hundred people behind me trouble General Qiao to help settle them." ”

Qiao Rui looked at the three hundred people behind Yuan Yao and nodded, although he didn't know where Yuan Yao got so many people from, but listening to Yuan Yao's tone, Yuan Yao should have been subdued on the way to Pingyu this time, and Qiao Rui would not dispose of such people at will.

After receiving Qiao Rui's affirmative reply, Yuan Yao was still a little uneasy, and instructed Wei Yan beside him and said, "Wei Yan, you and Liao Hua will settle these three hundred brothers together and wait for my order." ”

"Yes, Childe!"

After Wei Yan got the order, he walked to Liao Hua's side and gave Liao Hua a smile. Liao Hua was originally a little worried because Qiao Rui came with a thousand soldiers and horses, but after listening to Qiao Rui and Yuan Yao's words, he knew that the thousand soldiers and horses were to prevent Yuan Yao from sneaking away again, which also made Liao Hua doubt his choice for the first time.

Is it really a good choice to follow Yuan Yao?

However, seeing Wei Yan who came to his side, Liao Hua's original heart was still relieved. Liao Hua naturally knew that Wei Yan was sent by Yuan Yao to calm his heart, but no matter what, with Wei Yan by his side, Liao Hua still felt a little relieved. Wei Yan can also be regarded as Yuan Yao's cronies, and with him, some problems will not arise in the future.

When Qiao Rui heard Yuan Yao's instructions to Wei Yan, he couldn't help but glance at the three hundred people behind Yuan Yao, but he didn't find anything special.

After that, Yuan Yao and Yu She, under the guidance of Qiao Rui, went to Pingyu County to meet Yuan Shu, while Wei Yan and Liao Hua took the three hundred bandits to the military camp outside Pingyu City under the guidance of one of Qiao Rui's generals.

Entering the county seat of Pingyu, Yuan Yao saw that in this county seat, everywhere you could see were the soldiers under Yuan Shu's command, patrolling all over Pingyu City. Seeing this scene, Yuan Yao felt that this Yuan Shu would not make a big fuss, but after asking Qiao Rui Yuan Yao, he knew that when Yuan Shu settled in Pingyu a few days ago, he was assassinated on the street, fortunately Ji Ling was by Yuan Shu's side at that time, otherwise Yuan Shu would be in danger, and later after some investigation, it was found that the person who assassinated Yuan Shu was sent by the Runan Yellow Turban, Yuan Shu was furious on the spot, and almost immediately raised troops to slaughter the Runan Yellow Turban, although he was finally persuaded by Yan Xiang and others, but he was still angry.

After being assassinated, Yuan Shu increased his control over Pingyu City, and even pulled out a lot of Runan Yellow Turbans in Pingyu City, which is the scene that Yuan Yao saw today.

"Is it really the hand of the Runan Yellow Turban?"

After listening to Qiao Rui's narration, Yuan Yao had such an idea in his heart for some reason. If it hadn't been assassinated, Yuan Yao might have thought that this incident was done by the Runan Yellow Turban, but after being assassinated by Wang Fang himself, Yuan Yao couldn't help but wonder if this would be Li Ru's ghost.

But these don't matter now, everything has happened, and Yuan Shu has already determined that this matter was done by Runan Yellow Turbans, so it can only be done by Runan Yellow Turbans. However, Yuan Yao still felt that he needed to investigate this matter, because Yuan Yao always felt that there would be no less assassinations like this in the future.

Perhaps for some people, assassination is a completely indiscriminate method, and they simply don't bother to use it. However, for a person like Li Ru, who is ruthless and has no bottom line, anything can happen and has to be guarded against. Moreover, Yuan Yao also guessed that Li Ru should also have an organization dedicated to assassination activities to solve some difficult problems for Li Ru.

When Yuan Yao was thinking about this, he had already come to Yuan Shu's residence with Qiao Rui, looking at the mansion in front of him, after seeing Ji Ling standing at the door, Yuan Yao was a little flustered. And then, after Ji Ling received Yuan Yao, he took him into the mansion, and Qiao Rui quickly slipped away, as for Yu She, he also wanted to slip away, but under the threat of Ji Ling's eyes, he still followed Yuan Yao into the mansion.

And after taking Yuan Yao to a hall where Yuan Shu was, Ji Ling took Yu Shi and left.

Yu Shi was sent by Yuan Shu to watch Yuan Yao, but he ran away with Yuan Yao, and he also needed to be "punished".

Yuan Yao walked into the hall with apprehension, and when he saw Yuan Shu's back, he immediately became nervous.

"Father!"

"You still know I'm your father?" Yuan Shu turned around at this time, his face extremely gloomy.
