Due to the delay of some time, when Yuan Xi led people back to Yecheng, they saw that the huge city gate had been closed, and the group hurriedly reined in the war horse and stopped in front of the city gate.

"Open the door, the second son will return to the city" Hu Niu'er immediately shouted towards the city wall.

"Second son!" A military marquis standing on the city wall immediately held a torch and looked down, when he saw Yuan Xi's face clearly, and the soldier with blood behind him, he hurriedly ordered: "Open the city gate quickly, inform the captain, the second son has an accident"

"Yes!"

When Yuan Xi rode in, a captain wearing armor and a sword at his waist quickly rushed in front of Yuan Xi, and said with a respectful face: "The captain of the East Gate is honored, meet the second son."

Yuan Xi immediately grabbed the war horse, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and said, "You are the younger brother in the trial."

In the trial and governance, he is not only one of Yuan Shao's henchmen and advisers, but also the ruler of the military, and his status and rights in the general's mansion are only inferior to those of Fu Yu and Tian Feng, and they are deeply valued by Yuan Shao.

"Exactly, second son, what's wrong with you?" Xian Rong looked at the guard with blood on his armor and asked with concern.

Yuan Xi's eyes froze, and he smiled slightly: "It's nothing, it's just a gang of bandits."

A trace of suspicion flashed in the eyes of the "bandit" Xianrong, this is near Yecheng, where the base camp of the four continents is located, how can there be bandits.

"Judge, I still have something to do, so I'll go back to the mansion first" After Yuan Xi said, he immediately drove his horse into the city, and did not stay any longer, first, this trial data was mediocre, and it was not worth his trouble, and second, he had already seen clearly that the other party's loyalty to him was only 3, and it was obvious that he had already surrendered to Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan.

After Xun Ronggong sent it off, his eyes flashed, and he immediately ordered: "Quickly inform the third son, just say that the second son was attacked by bandits when he returned to the city, and he was also told to be frustrated."

"Yes, Captain," the two soldiers hurriedly left.

Xian Rong stayed where he was, frowned, and muttered, "What the hell is going on??" ”

When Yuan Xi arrived at the door of the mansion with his group, Liu Quan, the housekeeper who had been waiting, was suddenly startled in his heart, and hurriedly ran to Yuan Xi, and said in a hurry: "Childe, are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine, is Mi'er okay?" Yuan Xi asked with concern.

"Okay, very good, Madame is waiting for the son" Liu Quan hurriedly replied.

"Let's go in and close the door of the mansion" Yuan Xi waved his hand and walked towards the mansion.

When Yuan Xi arrived at the mansion safely, the entire Yecheng gradually began to surge.

I saw that only one street away from the General's Mansion, a luxurious and abnormal mansion appeared forward, in the living room of the mansion, the lights were bright, full of friends, it seemed very lively, dressed in gorgeous clothes, the drunken Yuan Shang sat on the main seat, and there was a delicate and leaky woman on the left and right who was serving him, holding a three-legged wine glass in her hand, and her face was red and said: "Come, have a drink"

"Second son, please" Everyone hurriedly greeted him.

After a toast, sitting at the head of the right, a scribe with a Sven face, fair skin, and an extraordinary temperament, but with a hint of ruthlessness in his eyes, laughed softly: "The lord has already ruled the four continents, as long as he is recuperating for a few years, he can wave his troops south, sweep away the heroes everywhere, dominate the world, and ascend the throne as the emperor, and then the second prince will be the prince."

This person is an important advisor of Yuan Xi, the younger brother of Feng Ji who is in charge of the military with the judge, Feng Ling, who is currently serving as the master of the Gong Cao in the General's Mansion, and has long been obedient to Yuan Shang.

"Haha, Yuan Ming must not say this, although I am a son-in-law, but after all, I am the youngest, and that position will not be my turn no matter how it turns" Hearing this, Yuan Shang tried his best to be modest, but the thick ambition and desire flashing in his eyes were indeed so easy to see.

"Why should the second son be modest, my brother only sent a document a few days ago, saying that the lord had praised the son many times during the march, although the son of Yuan Tan is the eldest son, but he is brave and unscrupulous, and it is not the capital of the emperor, not to mention the son of Yuan Xi, although he is benevolent and kind-hearted, but too mediocre and inactive, only the second son knows people and is good at his duties, both civil and military, is the only successor of the great cause in the future, and will inevitably create an unprecedented prosperous era"

"Yes, except for the second son, if anyone else ascends to the throne, I won't be satisfied" Sitting in the first place on the left, wearing a black brocade suit, burly and with a scar on his left eye, Guo Yuan, the captain of the Tiger Roaring Battalion, said loudly, exuding a fierce aura all over his body.

"Yes, support the second son"

"I'm the only one who waits for the second son

"Haha!" Seeing this scene, Yuan Shang couldn't help but laugh loudly, held the wine glass in his hand and said: "Everything depends on the help of the princess, come, come"

"Childe, please!" After everyone drank again, an old man who looked like a housekeeper suddenly ran over in a hurry and whispered in Yuan Shang's ear.

I saw Yuan Shang's pupils shrink, and he said in surprise: "Are you sure?" ”

"The city gate opened by the captain himself," the butler hurriedly replied.

Yuan Shang's face froze, and he sobered up a lot in the whole moment, Xian Rong was his person, so naturally he would not lie.

"Childe, what's wrong" Feng Ling immediately saw that it was unusual.

Yuan Shang slowly stood up and said with a reluctant smile: "Yuan Ming, Guo Yuan, you come with me, you continue to eat and drink"

"No!" Feng Ling and Guo Yuan hurriedly followed, and the other people's faces suddenly showed puzzled expressions.

。。。。。

On the other side, in Yuan Tan's mansion, in a study, there were also bursts of discussion.

"Second brother, how's it going?" I saw that Yuan Tan's voice suddenly sounded, with a hint of concern.

"The second son is fine, he is a little frightened, and he has returned to the mansion now"

"Really? Then prepare some gifts immediately, I will go to see the second brother tomorrow morning, and I will be shocked for him, my father is coming back, and the second brother must not have anything to do" Yuan Tan immediately ordered.

"Yes, Childe"

。。。。。。

In addition to these two places, in the Jizhou Beijia Mansion, Fu Zhi gently waved away the soldiers who had been announced, with a trace of helplessness and worry on his face

"Father, what the hell is going on?" In front of Fu Zhi, a young man who was about twenty years old, a little similar to Fu Zhi, but his expression was a little less wise and decisive, and a little more generous and dutiful, asked suspiciously.

"They are also too anxious, thinking that as soon as the lord returns, they will elect the son, so they are forcing people to stand up" The eyesight of the frustrated professor is not idle, but after just asking a few words, they already know a rough idea.

"Then who intercepted and killed the second son?"

"It doesn't matter who it is, Hu'er, they won't hurt the second son, the important thing is that the world has not yet been unified, and all the heroes are there, and my eyes on the four continents are indeed no longer in the world, and in the battle for the son, if it goes on like this, it will become a huge disaster" Frustrated, a trace of anger flashed on his face

"Father, don't be angry, pay attention to your body," Frustrated Hu hurriedly asked.

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and he slowly stood up, with a touch of firmness flashing on his face: "I can't pretend to be invisible for my father, if I really divide all the sons out according to the lord's idea, once the lord loses, it will inevitably lead to a civil war, completely destroy my northern foundation, inherit the great cause of the lord, and only fight for the father."

"Father!" A look of worry suddenly appeared on his frustrated face.
