Chapter 401: Return to Chang'an
Yuan Shu led people to the outside of the camp, but was stopped by the soldiers stationed at the gate of the camp.
Yan Xiang took a step forward, stood in front of Yuan Shu, and shouted with a straight face: "Presumptuous, Nanyang County Taishou Yuan Shu came in person, how dare you dare to stop a little soldier?" Tired of being alive? ”
Yuan Shu stood proudly with his hands behind his back, staring at the soldiers with cold eyes, murderous.
But the soldier didn't give face, and said coldly: "I don't care who it is, if I want to enter the camp, I must be checked." ”
"Too much deception!"
Yuan Shu was so angry that he was about to leave on the spot.
Yan Xiang hurriedly persuaded: "Lord, you can't withdraw." In order to please Dong Zhuo and befriend Wang Lei, we have paid a lot. If you go back now, you won't get anything. Yuan Hong is Yuan Shao's person, the lord killed Yuan Hong, he has fallen out with Yuan Shao, and he can no longer offend Wang Lei. Besides, the lord personally brought someone to apologize, and at this time he fell out with Wang Lei, and all his efforts were in vain. ”
Yuan Shu snorted angrily, and couldn't help but nod. As Yan Xiang said, it is definitely not cost-effective to return to the county seat at this time. Yuan Shu held back the anger in his chest and let the soldiers inspect it.
After some inspection, the team entered the camp.
When he came to the big tent of the Chinese army, after Yuan Shu sat down, he said in a non-yin and non-yang manner: "It's really not easy to see Lord Wang." ”
Wang Lei said: "It's not easy to see Yuan Taishou. The road was difficult and dangerous, and he was almost killed. ”
Yuan Shu questioned about the matter at the gate of the camp, and Wang Lei counterattacked with the assassination.
The corners of Yuan Shu's mouth twitched, Yuan Xuedong assassinated Wang Lei, and it was not at his instigation, but it was secretly arranged by Yuan Hong. But Wang Lei fought back with Yuan Xuedong's assassination, but Yuan Shu was helpless and difficult to fight back, after all, it was an accident on his territory.
Yuan Shu stopped arguing with Wang Lei, returned to the topic, and said sincerely: "This time I came to meet Lord Wang, first, I sent Yuan Hong's head to show my sincerity; Second, apologize for the assassination. ”
"Come on, bring Yuan Hong's head up."
Yuan Shu ordered, and the people under his command immediately went to prepare. A short time later, the soldier came with a brocade box. The box was open, and inside the box was the head that had been treated with lime.
This head is Yuan Hong's!
Previously, Yuan Hong asked Yuan Xuedong to assassinate Wang Lei, wanting to cause turmoil in Jizhou. Once Yuan Xuedong succeeds, Yuan Shu will definitely not dare to kill him considering Yuan Shao's strength. It's a pity that Yuan Shu struck first, and when Yuan Xuedong made a move, Yuan Shu had already killed Yuan Hong.
Wang Lei glanced at Yuan Hong and waved his hand to accept it.
Regarding Yuan Shu's head, Wang Lei didn't say a word.
Yuan Shu changed his words and immediately said: "Lord Wang's assassination in Nanyang County is a mistake of this official. This time, the official prepared ten good horses, ten singers, and two boxes of jewels, and gave them to Lord Wang to apologize. ”
With a wave of his hand, Yan Xiang got up and went to inform.
A bewitching figure, a charming face or a pure singer rushed in.
Two large chests of jewels were also placed in the big tent.
Ten good horses, led by soldiers, were also arranged in the tent in turn, and the whole tent was crowded. Wang Lei's gaze swept over the war horse presented by Yuan Shao and nodded. These horses can't be compared with good horses like the War Emperor and the Red Rabbit Horse, but they are very good, far better than ordinary war horses.
Wang Lei's eyes fell on one of the horses, this horse was brown all over, without miscellaneous hair, and very powerful.
This horse is a first-class sweat and blood horse.
Dian Wei is also a person who knows the goods, staring at the whole brown horse, his eyes did not move. With that look, he had already booked the best horse as his own war horse.
Wang Lei had a smile on his face and said, "Yuan is too polite, Lei deserves it." ”
Yuan Shuxin said, do you deserve it? How I didn't find out. When you didn't take out the war horse and the beauty just now, you had a black face, as if you were asking for your life, as if you owed a life. Yuan Shu despised Wang Lei in his heart, but said: "Lord Wang, this is what this official should do." If I don't make amends, I don't want to go. ”
"That being the case, I am disrespectful!" Wang Lei waved his hand and ordered: "Take it down!" ”
The soldiers brought the horses, money and singers down, and Wang Lei said with a smile: "I already understand the sincerity of Yuan Taishou." Yuan Taishou's respect for Xiangguo, I already understand. After returning to Chang'an, I will definitely make it clear to Xiangguo. ”
"Thank you, Lord Wang!"
Yuan Shu was waiting for this sentence, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a thick smile.
The purpose of this trip has finally been achieved.
Yan Xiang seized the opportunity and said, "Lord Wang, the lord has set up a banquet in the city, and I invite Lord Wang to go. ”
Wang Lei shook his head and said: "Yuan Taishou's kindness, I understand it." Time was pressing, and I had to rush back to Chang'an as soon as possible, so I couldn't go to the city for the banquet. After a short rest of the army, I will set off for the north. ”
Yuan Shu didn't care either, and said with a smile: "Lord Wang has been away from Chang'an for a while, and it is normal to rush back." Time is pressing, so I don't force it. When you have time, you can drink again. ”
Wang Lei said: "Thank you Yuan Taishou for your understanding!" ”
Yuan Shu said: "Farewell! ”
"Walk slowly, don't send it!"
Wang Lei waved his hand and watched Yuan Shu and the others leave.
After Yuan Shu and Yan Xiang left, the smile on Yuan Shu's face disappeared, and he snorted angrily: "This Wang Lei is really arrogant, he really regards himself as a character, forgetting that he is a gangster?" Hmph, damn it! ”
Yan Xiang said: "My lord, the top priority is to increase your own strength. After Wang Lei conveyed our goodwill to Dong Zhuo, there will be no threat to the north for the time being, and we can deal with Liu Bei with all our might, expand to the east, and strengthen our own strength. ”
"It makes sense, let Wang Lei be arrogant for a while."
Yuan Shu flicked his sleeves and quickly returned to Shunyang County.
Wang Lei, Dian Wei and others left the camp and came to the place where the war horses were placed. Dian Wei didn't have any humility, he came directly to the brown war horse, took the reins of the horse, and said unceremoniously: "Lord, this horse belongs to me." ”
The rest of the horses are also first-class good horses, but they are not as good as Dian Wei's sweaty horse.
Wang Lei smiled and said: "Brother has chosen, it is brother." ”
"Thank you, my lord!"
Dian Wei turned over his horse happily, shouted, and rode away. The horse was like the wind, swift as thunder, and extremely fast, Dian Wei rode on the horse, reached out and took out the double halberd from his back, and danced the iron halberd while running.
"Good horse, good horse!"
Dian Wei couldn't close his mouth and rode back to Wang Lei's side, his eyes excited.
Next, Huang Zhong, Zhou Tai, Gan Ning and others also chose war horses. Ten war horses were quickly divided. Gan Ning changed his words and asked, "Lord, Yuan Shu also sent ten singers, how to deal with it?" ”
Wang Lei didn't think about it, and said: "I have already given it to Pang Degong, Sima Hui and others as their maids!" ”
Gan Ning sighed and stopped talking.
Wang Lei asked: "Does Xingba have a favorite candidate?" ”
"No, no!" Gan Ning hurriedly shook his head, even Wang Lei didn't choose, he was a subordinate, where did he dare to propose to choose a woman, so he simply gave it to Pang Degong and others.
The army rested in place for another hour, continued its journey, and went straight to Wuguan.
Entering Wuguan, it was already the end of November.
The weather was getting colder, Wang Lei and others hurried all the way and returned to Chang'an in early December. After a few months, Wang Lei completed the task of envoy Qu'a and returned to Chang'an, which had been absent for a long time.
