Not long after, in the spacious tent, only Yuan Xi was left, holding a bamboo slip in his hand, and was comfortably admiring.

When the curtain was lifted, a figure immediately rushed in, knelt on the ground, and shouted: "Qingzhou Li Yong, meet the lord, may my lord be blessed and dominate the world."

Yuan Xi turned his head and glanced at it, and the data immediately appeared.

"Li Yong, Loyalty 76, Force 14, Intelligence 74"

Yuan Xi smiled coldly, where is such loyalty worthy of fanaticism, it can only be said that this person is very good at pretending, even Yuan Ping has been concealed, from the moment he came in, he knelt on the ground, called himself the lord, and praised him with all his praise, it was obvious that he was a very scheming person, but the most important thing in the world was this kind of self-righteous smart person, who didn't pay too much attention to it, and continued to look at the bamboo slips, as if he hadn't heard it at all.

Li Yong, who was kneeling on the ground and knocked his forehead to the ground, waited for a while, and suddenly looked up slightly with some curiosity, and found that Yuan Xi was still reading, and a trace of doubt flashed on his face, and he shouted again: "Qingzhou Li Yong, meet the lord"

Yuan Xi lightly flipped through the bamboo slips, and said in a majestic tone: "Kneel!" ”

Li Yong's pupils shrank, but he still hurriedly responded: "No! ”

A dull and depressing atmosphere quickly spread, and beads of sweat soon appeared on Li Yong's forehead, and it was obvious that he was a little nervous in his heart.

After about half a pillar of incense, Yuan Xi finally finished reading the bamboo slips slowly, and after putting them down, he turned his head to look at Li Yong and said, "Raise your head"

"No!" Li Yong immediately raised his head, only to see that the face was a little thin and sallow, but the eyes were very bright, flashing a hint of fanatical color, it seemed to be good, but the nose like an eagle's hook did reveal an unusual insidious and cold.

"I ask you, what is the military secretary used for?" Yuan Xi asked softly.

"The lord, the military division is used by the lord to control the army, eliminate the self-respect of the army, and have reached the eternal step of respecting the emperor in the world," Li Yong immediately responded excitedly.

The corners of Yuan Xi's mouth raised, "The words are really nice, then tell me how to form a military division, and what should the military division do to achieve the emperor of the world?" ”

"My lord, my subordinates think that in addition to selecting literate people to join the military department and constantly instill the idea of loyalty into them, we should also set up a generous treatment for the military department personnel, such as the people of the military department, if the age is reached, they can be the first to be arranged to be an official in various places, or give a rich reward, so that they will be more dedicated to the soldiers below to completely get into the line, and then set up a complete reward and punishment system for ordinary soldiers, advocating the spirit of martial arts, so that The personnel of the military department can thoroughly improve the loyalty and combat effectiveness of the soldiers, control their thoughts, and the subordinates think that if it continues like this, after more than ten years, they will inevitably be able to reach the emperor in the world, and the generals only have the right to lead the troops, and they can't make chaos, and the lord doesn't even need to do it himself, he can deprive any general of his military power and cast the foundation of the world" Li Yong obviously had already made a good draft, and after hearing Yuan Xi's question, he immediately talked about it loudly, and the more he talked, the more excited he became.

Yuan Xi's face was calm, and after listening to them one by one, he suddenly said with a cold look in his eyes: "You are really naïve!" ”

Li Yong was suddenly shocked, his face was a little incredulous, where did he say something wrong, he had been thinking about this plan for a long time.

"I'm here to tell you, what you think is indeed beautiful, but you underestimate people's hearts, distance and time will slowly change everything, everyone has an ambition, can the people of the military department be loyal forever? What if in the future, or if I'm gone, the rebellion will start with the military division? They have the closest relationship with the soldiers below, and if the bewitched soldiers betray, have you thought about how to solve it? Yuan Xi asked softly.

Li Yong was stunned for an instant, his face turned pale, he really didn't think about this, he just thought about how to limit the power and prestige of the leading generals.

Yuan Xi slowly walked next to Li Yong, who was kneeling, his palm suddenly pressed on his shoulder, and said with a cold expression: "Li Yong, you are a little talented and have some ideas, but you had better remember for me, don't be too arrogant, otherwise I can pinch to death with a slight move."

After finishing speaking, Yuan Xi's right hand slammed into force, and suddenly Li Yong wailed in pain, only to feel that his entire right arm was crushed, and immediately kept kowtowing in fear: "The subordinates are loyal to the lord, and they have no two hearts!" ”

Looking at Li Yong, whose forehead was bleeding quickly, Yuan Xi said softly: "Okay, I'll keep your head and it's still useful, don't break it, and call it Childe."

"Yes, Gongzi Xie" Li Yong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, covered his painful right arm, and hurriedly thanked him a few times.

Yuan Xi returned to the desk, looked at the loyalty value that had been raised to 86, picked up the bamboo slip again, and said: "Go find Yuan Ping, he will make arrangements for you, if you do well this time, follow me in the future!" ”

A trace of surprise and excitement flashed in Li Yong's eyes, and he hurriedly kowtowed again: "Thank you Gongzi Longen, thank you Gongzi Longen, my subordinates will definitely do their best."

Yuan Xi waved his hand lightly, Li Yong immediately slowly retreated to the edge of the tent, looking at Yuan Xi who was reading the book again, in addition to the fanatical worship in his eyes, there was more fear, the sharp eyes, the cold tone, it seemed that all the wisdom made his heart tremble.

Soon after Li Yong lifted the curtain and left, Yuan Ping walked in with concern and said, "Second brother, how is it?" ”

Yuan Xi smiled, "This person is very good at disguise and speculative by nature, but his ability is not bad, especially if he has his own ideas about the development of the military division, this time let him lead a group of military personnel to Wei County for development, right?" ”

Yuan Ping was taken aback, "Second brother, aren't you worried that he will turn against the water?" ”

"Haha, rest assured, as long as I'm still here, this Li Yong will never dare to rebel, even harder than anyone else" Yuan Xi smiled confidently, as high as 86 loyalty points, it is not a big change, it will not move, and this guy is an ambitious person, he will definitely crave power more than anyone else.

Yuan Ping hesitated, but still nodded, "Okay then!" The younger brother immediately arranged to introduce him to General Gao Ran."

"Good!" After Yuan Xi just finished speaking, the tent was suddenly lifted, and I saw Liu Quan, who was sweaty and anxious, rushed in.

"Childe, it's not good, Lord Fu was assassinated," Liu Quan said anxiously.

"What!" Yuan Ping shouted with surprise on his face.

And a trace of regret and sadness immediately flashed in Yuan Xi's eyes, and his fists were slightly clenched together, it seemed that Zhang Nan had succeeded.

"How is this possible, isn't Lord Fu Zhu imprisoned in the prison in the west of the city?" I saw Yuan Ping's face in disbelief, and he was frustrated that it was Yuan Shao's Xiao He, a world-shattering talent, the chief manager of the north, and he died like this.

"Originally, he was imprisoned in the prison in the west of the city, but today the lord was going to summon him, so he was taken out, and he was killed on the way to the general's mansion, obviously it was carefully planned," Liu Quan explained.

"Have you caught the murderer," Yuan Xi asked in a solemn tone.

"No, the female murderer committed suicide immediately after the assassination was successful," Liu Quan replied.

Yuan Xi walked in front of Liu Quan and said solemnly: "Is Yecheng already closed the city gate and is looking for the murderer's accomplices everywhere?"

"No, the General's Mansion directly said that Lord Fu Zhu was killed by the enemy's spies, and he was already preparing for the funeral, and the lord had already issued an order to let the civil and military ministers of the whole city go to pay respects" Liu Quan gasped a little.

Hearing this, Yuan Ping suddenly became angry, "What are you kidding, Lord Fu is the number one hero in the north, he was assassinated, and he was so dead"

Yuan Xi waved his hand, blocking Yuan Ping's words, and frowned: "This matter is very complicated, it is estimated that the eldest brother and the third brother are involved, so my father didn't make a move, you don't have to think about it, all of them will step back for me, I want to be quiet alone, and immediately order, I will rush back to Yecheng tonight, Jingzhi, and that Li Yong will come with me."

"No!" The crowd immediately answered, and then retreated.

Yuan Xi stood alone in the empty tent, and a strong sense of melancholy suddenly appeared in his heart, he died of frustration, and died in his hands, originally he still laughed at Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan's plan, but he didn't expect that it was he who made this step in the end.

Life is really unsatisfactory, Yuan Xi has not yet been shocked by the tiger's might, the prestige and strength of the eight directions, for his own safety, for the glorious world, for the supreme position, he can only be like this, and he must be like this.
