Chapter 400: Reparations
Wang Lei asked: "The corpse hanging at the gate of the camp, has Master Yan seen it?" ”
"See clearly!" Yan Xiang had doubts in his eyes and asked, "Dare to ask Lord Wang, what is the matter with the corpses and heads hanging at the gate of the camp?" Who are these people? ”
In Yan Xiang's heart, a bad premonition arose.
can make Wang Lei make a big fuss, and the things inside it are definitely not simple.
Wang Lei said: "A person named Yuan Xuedong, on the order of Yuan Shu, carried Yuan Hong's head to see me in Qingshanyu. It's a pity that this Yuan Xuedong was an assassin, hiding the dagger in his head and suddenly assassinating. ”
Yan Xiang's worries became a fact, his face changed greatly, and he said, "Lord Wang, it is absolutely impossible for the Lord to be unfavorable to you, this is a misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding!" ”
Wang Lei said coldly: "This official was scratched by Yuan Xuedong's dagger, how can you say this?" ”
Dian Wei blinked, and said in his heart: The lord is too cunning. Obviously he was not stabbed with a dagger, but he insisted that he was seriously injured.
After hearing this, cold sweat broke out on Yan Xiang's forehead, and he hurriedly explained, "Lord Wang, this is a misunderstanding. After Yuan Hong visited the lord, he was arrested by the lord. On the way to Shunyang County, the lord cut off Yuan Hong's head and came to Shunyang County with Yuan Hong's head. Yuan Xuedong, who saw Lord Wang, could not have been sent by the lord. I think this is Lord Wang being deceived. ”
"Scammed? Did Yuan Xuedong lie to me, or did Yuan Shu lie to me? ”
Wang Lei's tone was cold, and he said: "After this official entered Nanyang County, you said about Yuan Hong on behalf of Yuan Shu, and said that Yuan Shu was willing to execute Yuan Hong to show his heart. Soon after, outside the county, Yuan Xuedong came to visit the official again, saying that Yuan Shu had changed his mind and would send Yuan Hong's head to Qingshanyu. ”
"Yuan Xuedong is Yuan Shao's person, he follows Yuan Hong, waiting for an opportunity to deal with this official. Because Yuan Shu hesitated, Yuan Xuedong had an opportunity. If Yuan Shu had killed Yuan Hong early and got rid of the people around Yuan Hong, nothing would have happened. ”
Wang Lei's tone became more and more stern, and he shouted loudly: "Master Yan, you said that this was a misunderstanding, I think it was deliberate." ”
"Yuan Shu deliberately delayed time, just to let Yuan Hong arrange it and kill me with the help of Yuan Hong's hand."
"Yuan Shu harbors evil intentions, how can this official not know?"
"Master Yan is Yuan Shu's minister and Yuan Shu's confidant, you should know that when I first arrived in Shunyang County, Yuan Shu once courted me, but secretly colluded with Liu Bei and wanted to kill me with Liu Bei's hand. Now, Yuan Shu flatters me on the surface, but he uses a knife to kill people, which is exactly in line with Yuan Shu's consistent style. ”
Wang Lei's tone was firm, as if he had already determined that Yuan Shu had done it on purpose.
Yan Xiang's waist bent down more and more, and he said sincerely: "Lord Wang, this matter has absolutely nothing to do with the lord. The real Yuan Hong is dead, in other words, the lord has offended Yuan Shao. If the lord wants to murder Lord Wang, wouldn't he offend Yuan Shao and Lord Wang, this is something that outweighs the loss! Lord Wang is wise and wise, and he must be able to see the loopholes. ”
The corners of Wang Lei's mouth rose and said, "Can I trust Yuan Shu?" ”
Gan Ning interjected: "Yuan Shu is extremely cunning, lord, just kill it directly and recover all your losses." ”
Dian Wei said: "Uncle Dian wanted to kill a big fight, and the weapons were rusty. ”
Lu Bu shook his sleeve robe, and said unhurriedly: "My Fang Tian painting halberd has not been stained with blood for a long time. ”
One by one, the murderous spirit was soaring, and Yan Xiang's heart trembled.
Shunyang County approached Wuguan, where Wang Lei caused a war, and Wuguan's army was bound to move south. At that time, the war will spread to the entire Nanyang County, and Yuan Shu cannot afford such consequences. Thinking of this, Yan Xiang secretly said that Yuan Shu was too hesitant to do things, and if he saw Yuan Hong, he would directly execute Yuan Hong and Yuan Hong's entourage, and it would be impossible to assassinate Wang Lei.
Yan Xiang's mind turned quickly, and he said, "Lord Wang is angry, and the generals are angry...... In this matter, the lord must give the king an explanation, and he will compensate the king for his loss. ”
Dian Wei nodded and said, "It's almost as good as compensation...... Hmph, the lord is injured, and he must make up for it. Hurry back and let Yuan Shu prepare the items for compensation. ”
Wang Lei waved his hand, waved his hand and said, "Go!" ”
Yan Xiang respectfully retreated and returned to the county seat of Shunyang County.
Dian Wei said: "Lord, if Yuan Shu is interested, this time, he will definitely prepare money and goods." If Yuan Shu can send a batch of war horses over, that would be the best result. ”
Wang Lei smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry, just wait!" ”
……
After leaving the barracks, Yan Xiang ran all the way and soon returned to the city. When he came to the city, he went straight to the post station. After coming to Yuan Shu's room, Yan Xiang bowed and saluted.
Yuan Shu smiled and asked, "Master, what did Wang Lei say?" Won't he go into the city? ”
Yan Xiang looked bitter and said, "Lord, something is wrong!" ”
"What's going on?" Yuan Shu asked.
Yan Xiang's expression was solemn, and he replied slowly: "After Yuan Hong arrived in Wanxian, although he was controlled by the lord, he took the lead in sending someone in Qingshanyu to fake the lord's order, and made a fake Yuan Hong's head to give it to Wang Lei, taking the opportunity to assassinate Wang Lei, causing Wang Lei to be injured. Wang Lei thinks that you are deliberately conniving at Yuan Hong and want to kill people with a knife. The situation is not good! ”
The smile on Yuan Shu's face disappeared and was replaced by a gloomy color.
I thought it was a good thing, but I didn't know that the situation had changed.
Yuan Shu kept a straight face, paced back and forth in the room, and said, "In order to befriend Wang Lei, I have executed Yuan Hong and completely offended Yuan Shao. Now that this incident has happened, if you don't appease Wang Lei, you will offend Wang Lei and get nothing. No, it can't be like this. Master Yan, what do you say? ”
Yan Xiang thought for a while and said, "My lord, I think that the only way to apologize is to apologize." ”
"How?" Yuan Shu hurriedly asked.
Yan Xiang thought about it carefully and said: "Looking at Wang Lei's attitude, although he insists that the lord will kill people with a knife. In the conversation, there seemed to be a different idea, and he didn't plan to turn his face with the lord. Just imagine, if Wang Lei insisted that the lord wanted to borrow a knife to kill, he would definitely bring troops to kill, and it was impossible to hang a head and a corpse outside the camp. As long as adequate compensation is given, it is still feasible. ”
Yuan Shu asked, "How to compensate?" ”
Yan Xiang replied: "It's nothing more than money, jewelry, women, and BMWs, and the lord prepares some gifts and personally goes to Wang Lei's camp to apologize." In this way, the conflict will definitely be resolved. ”
Yuan Shu frowned and said: "I am a dignified son of the Yuan family, and I am also the Taishou of Nanyang County, and I personally went to Wang Lei's camp to apologize." What kind of system is this? ”
Yan Xiang sighed lightly: "The lord wants to befriend Dong Zhuo and Wang Lei, so he can only do this." ”
When he spoke, Yan Xiang secretly despised it in his heart. As a superior, Yuan Shu only wanted to enjoy the majesty of the superior, but he did not have the bearing of a superior who could bend and stretch, which was disappointing.
Yuan Shu thought for a while and said, "Okay, you go and prepare, let's go to Wang Lei's camp." ”
Yan Xiang said goodbye and quit and immediately went to prepare.
About half an hour later, Yan Xiang came to the room again and said respectfully, "Lord, it's ready." He prepared ten good horses, ten singers, and two boxes of money and jewelry to compensate for Wang Lei's losses. ”
Yuan Shu waved his hand and said, "Let's go, go to Wang Lei's military camp." ”
The group left the post station and rode to the camp where Wang Lei's army was stationed.
