The next morning, Yuan Xi walked towards the General's Mansion as usual, and the expansion of the Iron Guard Battalion could not be trusted.

After coming to the General's Mansion, Yuan Xi was immediately taken by the chamberlain to the inner hall where Yuan Shao was resting, and after waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Yuan Shao walked in, with a strong fragrance on his body, which was the smell of rouge of a woman.

"Son to meet my father," Yuan Xi said.

"No need to be polite, what are you looking for your father" After Yuan Shao sat down, he asked with a somewhat tired face.

"Father, my son will go to Youzhou next year, but the soldiers of the Iron Guard Battalion have not exceeded 2,000 yet, so I want to recruit some soldiers and horses, so that I can also deal with some unexpected things," Yuan Xi said.

Yuan Shao nodded, and said with a little relief: "If you can think so, it means that you have made progress, and my father will give you 20,000 soldiers, plus the 50,000 elite soldiers originally stationed in Youzhou, it should be enough for you to stabilize the situation in a state."

"Thank you, father" Yuan Xi immediately knelt on the ground gratefully.

"Haha" After Yuan Shao smiled, he suddenly said softly: "Xi'er, I don't know what you think about the matter of frustration?" ”

Yuan Xi was stunned for a moment, and after thinking quickly in his mind for a while, he replied: "Er really hates to slander our three brothers for fratricidal and deceived my father, but looking back, if it weren't for his action, Er would probably be caught between the eldest brother and the third brother, so I don't know whether to be grateful to him or hate him, anyway, father, you are in charge!" No comments."

Between the words, there is a sense of non-contention and inaction.

However, when Yuan Shao heard this, he laughed happily, "My son is really kind-hearted, you are the source of this matter, but you can really let go first, I am really happy for my father, if your two brothers have this belly, it will be good."

"My father has an overreputation, it doesn't matter if my son is slandered, anyway, my son doesn't have any big ambitions, guarding one side, it's enough to be rich and happy, but the eldest brother and the third brother are both geniuses in the sky, dragons and phoenixes among people, if this reputation is bad, how will you face the world in the future" Yuan Xi immediately explained.

"Haha, don't worry about this, your father won't let them be harmed, okay, you go down" Yuan Shao smiled and waved his hand.

"Yes, say goodbye" Yuan Xi bowed and slowly retreated.

After leaving the inner hall, a sneer appeared on the corner of Yuan Xi's mouth, and he really wanted to pardon the frustration, but unfortunately he probably didn't have a chance to turn the clouds and rain again.

When he got up and was about to leave the General's Mansion, he suddenly found that not far ahead, two chamberlains were leading a group of women with beautiful appearances, graceful bodies, and white robes towards the backyard of the General's Mansion.

Yuan Xi frowned and stretched out a hand to an attendant not far away.

"Childe, what do you order" The waiter hurriedly ran over

"What's the matter with those women?" Yuan Xi asked.

After the chamberlain turned his head and looked at it, he immediately replied, "Yu Gongzi, those are all here to serve the lord."

"Oh!" Yuan Xi nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I know, you go!" ”

"Yes!"

After the chamberlain left, Yuan Xi muttered: "No wonder I'm so tired, it seems that my father is a little relaxed."

But this is just a trivial matter, a group of women who are sleeping in the dormitory are not worth Yuan Xi to care too much about, after returning to the mansion, Yuan Xi immediately let people inform Jiao that large-scale recruitment can be carried out.

"Husband!" Zhen Mi suddenly appeared in front of her with joy on her face.

"Mi'er, what's so happy?" Yuan Xi asked with a smile.

"Husband, just now my uncle sent someone to inform me that the original annual provision of 10,000 gold has increased by 13,000 gold," Zhen Mi said happily.

"Really?" Yuan Xi's eyes flashed, this Zhen Shu was really an old fox.

"Also, my uncle said that after my husband goes to Youzhou, I will immediately focus on the industry there," Zhen Mi continued.

"Haha, good, good" Yuan Xi smiled with satisfaction, looked at Zhen Mi, whose face was flushed with excitement, gently hugged him into his arms, stroked the silky body, and said gently: "These are all the credits of Mi'er"

"What's the matter, it's the husband who is capable of it," Zhen Mi said a little shyly.

After the two of them rubbed their ears and temples for a while, the housekeeper Liu Quan suddenly walked in, holding a bamboo slip in his hand, and said in a low voice: "Son, Zhang Junsi sent a letter"

Yuan Xi's eyes froze, and he slowly let go of Zhen Mi, and the whole person became serious.

Seeing this scene, Zhen Mi immediately saluted: "Husband, then I'll go first"

"Good!" Yuan Xi smiled and nodded.

After Zhen Mi left, Liu Quan handed the bamboo slip to Yuan Xi.

After Yuan Xi opened it, he saw two English characters A and B written on it, which may be a book from heaven and a ghost drawing symbol for people in this era.

But Yuan Xi did show a smile, these two characters were specially given to Zhang Nan, which meant that everything was ready, and he immediately raised his head and said: "Tomorrow I will go to the Iron Guard Camp to see how the recruitment situation is, it may take a few days, you go and prepare"

"Yes, Childe," Liu Quan hurriedly replied.

The next morning, after Yuan Xi said something to Zhen Mi, he got into the carriage directly, and under the protection of Hu Niu'er and other guards, he swaggered out of the east city gate and headed towards the military camp.

Just after Yuan Xi's carriage left Yecheng, a well-planned assassination was about to begin.

Two days later, as Yuan Xi expected, despite the strong opposition of the ministers and his two sons, Yuan Shao decided to meet his first courtier first, and see if he had any remorse.

I saw that outside the prison door in the west of the city, dressed in white sin clothes, with some messy hair, and a frustrated man with iron handcuffs, walked out slowly, and the sudden light made his eyes slightly closed

"Congratulations, don't drive, it's hard to come," Min Hong stood aside and said excitedly.

"Haha, these days, you've worked hard, don't worry, once you go out, you won't forget you," said with a smile.

"Thank you for not driving, the lower official personally escorted you over," Min Hong said gratefully.

"Okay," he nodded.

Min Hong looked at the shackles in his hand, and immediately ordered: "Untie the hand"

"No need, it's just like this, I'm still a criminal minister" Hearing this, he smiled faintly, so that the lord could see better.

"Oh well! Let you be tired" Min Hong didn't force it, anyway, it was a matter of time or time.

Fu Zhu shook his head and took the lead towards the Great General's Mansion, Min Hong immediately surrounded him with a group of soldiers, seemingly on guard, but in fact he was firmly protecting.

The face was calm, the temperament was calm and walked slowly, because it was deliberately chosen in the early morning, so there were not many pedestrians on the road, and after everyone took a look, they hurriedly retreated, and did not cause too many onlookers.

After walking about half the distance, there was a sudden fierce roar, and a fierce man with a fat face and thick muscles was chasing the young woman with bruises on her face and her hair scattered.

"Help, help!" The woman was frightened and kept asking for help from the people around her, but instead of running towards them, she ran headlong towards the frustrated people who were surrounded by soldiers.

"Don't run, you slut, you dare to steal Lao Tzu's money" The strong man shouted angrily.

The girl who was running accidentally fell to the ground, her forehead immediately hit the ground, blood flowed out, looking at the soldiers not far in front of her, she shouted sadly: "Help me"

Seeing this scene, Fu Zhi immediately frowned, and said very dissatisfied: "How long have I been locked in, Yecheng is so disorderly, what are the city guards doing?"

"Stop him," Fu Zhi instructed Min Hong to the side.

Min Hong nodded and gestured to a few soldiers, who had long been tired of seeing this bastard who bullied women, and immediately rushed forward, drawing the saber on his waist, his face full of coldness

When the strong man saw it, he was instantly startled, and said in a trembling voice: "You, what do you want to do, I'm teaching my daughter-in-law a lesson."

A soldier looked at him coldly, his face was full of contempt, he waved his long knife fiercely, and shouted: "Get out of the way, or I will kill you now"

The strong man's eyes suddenly showed a trace of fear, and after glaring at the woman unwillingly, he hurriedly fled nervously.

The woman knelt on the ground and still kept crying, and after taking a look at it, she was just about to go over to take a look, but was blocked by Min Hong, "My lord, be careful!" ”

"Haha, where did a weak woman hurt me," said with a frustrated laugh.

"But?" Min Hong's face was still a little uneasy.

"It's okay, eldest prince, if the third prince really wants to kill the master, he will never wait for the moment when the lord summons me, I guess they may have given up now" After saying it confidently, he walked forward slowly and said gently: "Get up!" Your husband is gone."

"Thank you, thank you, my lord, the little woman didn't steal his money at all, he wanted to buy the little woman in the flower building for money" The woman hurriedly kowtowed in gratitude, crying more and more.

Frustrated and frowned, although he had seen a lot of such things, he still felt some pity for this woman in his heart, and stretched out his hand to help her up.

However, at this moment of bending over, the woman who was still in tears just now suddenly had a cold look in her eyes to the extreme, and that weak color instantly turned into a strong killing intent that could no longer be suppressed.
