The army is the foundation of a great cause, and no one will be willing to let it go, and everyone knows this truth.

Tian Feng's words soon reached the ears of Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan, and suddenly like a spark, it burned brightly, Yuan Shang was naturally very happy, and drank three cups, but Yuan Tan was really angry, and he only felt unjustified, and even blamed Tian Feng for being too talkative, although the four people he mentioned were among the best generals in the general's mansion, especially Zhang He was only inferior and ugly, but there was really no one of his people, and Yuan Shang did monopolize the two, which he would never allow, After all, those armies of Wen Chou are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, and they are not comparable to those state soldiers at all.

A fierce battle immediately began, and Yuan Tan asked Guo Tu, Wang Yu, Xin Ping, and others to submit letters to stop this proposal, and even planned to release General Wen Chou again, but did not let Yuan Shang benefit.

And Yuan Shang, of course, will not stand still, and also fought back quickly, and suddenly his birthday, celebration and everything stopped.

Yuan Shao has one head and two big, he knows the situation very well, but he is deeply concerned by his son, and he fell into hesitation again, in fact, he doesn't want to divide Wen Chou's military power at all, Wen Chou is absolutely loyal to him, but now that he has committed such a big thing, if he doesn't punish it, where is his majesty, and even if he doesn't punish it, he needs a step.

For three days in a row, Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan's people went to the General's Mansion one after another, and Yuan Shang went directly to Liu's dormitory.

On the fourth day, only a few days before Yuan Shao's birthday, at the door of the Great General's Mansion, Yuan Xi slowly fell, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he could finally close the net.

On the other side, in the prison cell, I saw Yuan Xi's housekeeper Liu Quan suddenly appear here, standing at the door of Wen Chou's cell with some meals, looking at the other party's surprised expression, and said: "General Wen, the second son has just come back from the barracks, and he heard about you, and he couldn't sleep at night, and now he has gone to the general's mansion, and he asked me to tell you, even if I kneel in front of the lord, I want to repay you for saving your life."

Wen Chou's pupils suddenly shrank, and a warm current in his heart immediately swept through, and he almost forgot about that matter.

"Thank you, thank you Second Son, but I heard that the other two sons are fighting for the power of the army, and the second son may make them angry if he does this" Wen Chou pondered for a while, a little worried, and even a little angry, thinking about how attentive those two sons were when he didn't have an accident that day, but he had just been imprisoned, and they began to fight in order to snatch their military power, and they were really angry in their hearts.

"I can't care so much, Childe said, if the military power is lost now, it will be difficult for General Wenchou to get it back in the future, please rest assured that Childe will work hard, he asked me to tell the general, to cherish"

"Don't worry, Wen Chou won't be defeated so easily" Wen Chou nodded gratefully.

Liu Quan smiled, and then said a little apologetically, "By the way, the second prince also asked me to say sorry to you, Wen Xian was found by our people again, only in this way can the general be saved, and he really deserves to be killed"

Wen Chou was shocked, his eyes showed a trace of sadness, and finally lowered his head helplessly, "He deserves it, and he has done everything he should do."

Seeing this scene, a smile flashed at the corner of Liu Quan's mouth.

At this time, in the inner hall of the General's Mansion, Yuan Shao's face was serious, and his eyes were indeed a little surprised to look at Yuan Xi who was kneeling down, "You let your father release Wen Chou"

"Yes, General Wen Chou has made outstanding contributions, and he is even more loyal to his father, although he took the liberty of releasing the death row prisoner, but it is also where the righteousness lies, and I hope that my father will open the net," Yuan Xi replied.

Yuan Shao slowly stood up and sneered: "Xi'er, did you underestimate you for your father?" You want to buy people's hearts, it seems that you are the same as your eldest brother and third brother, and you are not willing to be lonely! ”

"No, father, you misunderstood, just six days ago, my son appeared and was surrounded and killed by a group of bandits, it was General Wen Chou who came in a hurry and saved his life, and my son was grateful," Yuan Xi explained.

Yuan Shao immediately frowned, "Someone intercepted you again, why don't you say it?"

"My son doesn't want things to happen to my grandfather, and my father is about to have a big birthday, and my son is unharmed, so it's not worth saying it, and I don't want General Wen Chou to say it, not to mention that my father fought the world and killed countless people, but my son was just surrounded and killed by dozens of bandits, and it would be a shame to say it," Yuan Xi explained.

Yuan Shao's heart was shocked, and a trace of shame flashed on his face, he really ignored this son too much, stepped forward, and slowly helped Yuan Xi up, and said with relief: "Xi'er is a benevolent and filial piety, and he is very moved by his father, but if he doesn't punish Wen Chou, how can he be in the army."

"Father, rest assured, the reason why everyone wants to punish General Wen Chou is because of that Wen Xian, the son has sent the Iron Guard Battalion around in the past two days to search the surrounding counties, and finally caught him, as long as he is killed, I think everything will be able to restore calm, and the eldest brother and the third brother will not be fighting"

A hint of surprise flashed in Yuan Shao's eyes, "Okay, good, worthy of being my Yuan Shao's son, haha"

The news of Wen Xian's arrest soon came out, and Yuan Shao did not say that Yuan Xi was arrested, first, Yuan Xi's own request, and second, he didn't want to cause conflicts between their three brothers.

After Wen Xian was arrested, he was immediately beheaded, without even the slightest interrogation, it was obvious that Yuan Shao didn't want to accumulate this turmoil, Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan were stunned when they learned the news, and then sighed, this military power can't be earned.

At midnight, Wen Chou was secretly brought into the General's Mansion, and Yuan Shao personally tied him up, "Wen Xian is dead, isn't he angry?" ”

"No, he deserves it" Wen Chou felt Yuan Shao's love for him, and was immediately moved

"First of all, you are a favorite general, how can I be willing to punish you, even if this matter is over, don't be like this in the future" Yuan Shao patted Wen Chou's shoulder and comforted softly.

"Thank you, Lord Dagong, great grace" Wen Chou hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed his head heavily.

"Hurry up" After Yuan Shao helped him up, he smiled softly: "Do you want to thank you for saving Xi'er?" ”

"That's nothing at all, it's all what the last general should do, I originally planned to tell the lord immediately, but the second son is benevolent and filial, I'm afraid that this will collide with the lord's birthday" Wen Chou was touched.

"Haha, Xi'er is the most benevolent, I know this very well, you go back and prepare! It's a birthday in a few days, I'm still waiting to receive your first gift, and the army is a little flustered, you take care of it again."

"Yes, lord" Wen Chou walked away with a grateful face.

Yuan Shao watched the scene, and breathed a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face.

After Wen Chou returned to the mansion, he washed up well, looked at a letter in his hand, his face was full of sighs, and a tall general next to him said softly: "Second son, what did you say?" ”

"The second son asked me not to enter the house to thank you, it's best not to say anything about this matter, otherwise the other two sons will have opinions," Wen Chou said.

"Hey, the second son is really benevolent, not like other sons at all, originally I thought they were quite good, but I didn't expect the general to have an accident, they came to grab the fruit, and they didn't really say a word for the general at all"

"I know all this" Wen Chou's eyes flashed with a cold light, and said: "Prepare pen and ink, I want to write back"

"No"

When Wen Chou's letter reached Yuan Xi's hand, he looked at the only one line on it, and immediately laughed excitedly.

"Ugly swears allegiance to the lord and will never change, but if the lord goes in the future, Ugly is willing to help the second son"

Li Ru stood aside, stroked his beard and smiled lightly, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "The other two sons, although they are smart, they are blinded by interests, and they don't see it at all, Duke Yuan doesn't want to touch General Wenchou at all."

"That's good, but it's time for us to rest," Yuan Xi smiled.

"Childe is wise, Wen Youtian Feng, Wu has Wen Chou, it's completely enough, now what Childe has to do is to don't care about anything, and wait for the outer seal with peace of mind" Li Ru said with relief.

Yuan Xi nodded, the strategists in the General's Mansion are not simple characters, maybe everyone didn't pay attention to it the first time, but only once, they may all wake up, and Yuan Xi's life will be sad.

Things have to come step by step, you can't be too greedy, eat too much, and you may choke to death.
