Half a month after the end of the war in Hanoi.

After Yuan Tan returned to Yecheng with a big victory, he once again ignited the world's heated discussion about him.

Yecheng.

Prime Minister's Office.

Now that the imperial court is gradually becoming regular, after the benefits are highlighted, Yuan Shao's life is very comfortable.

He remembered that before, through the imperial edict, Huang Zu was appointed as the Taishou of Chaisang, and now Sun Ce, who occupies Chaisang, has sent the metropolitan governor Zhou Yu and Chen Bing Jiangxia, and it seems that he is going to fight Huang Zu.

It's not like doing it yourself, passing on a holy decree can make those princes fight, and every time I think of such a wonderful thing, I am happy.

"Daddy!"

Yuan Shang walked in.

Less.

"The Yuan family has a big savior ......."

Yuan Shao looked at the nursery rhyme in his hand and frowned.

Yuan Shang got a message from his mother Liu, saying that his father had a major arrangement for his three sons, which was related to the future inheritance, so he came to give Yuan Tan eye medicine.

Generally speaking, a son has the ability, and he will be happy to be a father. But it was an ordinary family, and the heavenly family was ruthless since ancient times.

Yuan Shao was like Li Yuan, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who felt that his position was threatened by Li Shimin.

"Now the barracks are full of big brother's voices, and the officers and soldiers of the three armies all say that they hope to follow my big brother to fight, which is really getting more and more powerful."

Yuan Shang looked at his father with clever eyes and praised.

Sure enough, he saw that his father's face was even worse.

"General Yan Liang and General Wen Chou, since they followed my eldest brother to win the battle, they went to my eldest brother's military camp to ...... two ends in three days."

Sure enough, he saw that Yuan Shao's face was even worse.

"Go back, be on an errand, don't embarrass the Yuan family."

Yuan Shao said coldly.

"Yes......."

Yuan Shang finished taking the eye medicine and left happily.

Vertical day.

Yuan Shao returned to the mansion after the court and convened a meeting of his henchmen.

He did not arrange for the three brothers of Yuan Tan to be on errands in the imperial court, so Yuan Tan and them were not eligible to participate in the court meeting.

However, as adult sons, they must attend the family meeting.

At Yuan Shao's meeting, there were still four waves of people.

Yuan Shao has a wave, and the three brothers Yuan Tan have a wave.

In ancient times, the family was like this, and the adult sons had their own team to develop their own so that the head of the family could choose the right heir.

This is especially true of the princes.

Originally, the people around Yuan Shang were the most capable.

But after Yuan Tan recruited Xun You and Xu Huang, it was completely different.

Yuan Shao admired Xun Yu very much, and wanted to summon him to his account, but his identity was embarrassed to rob Yuan Tan clearly.

secretly solicited a few times, and Xun You politely excused himself.

Is it good that he is the real master, and it seems that he has no future at all. If I have no future, can my son Yuan Tan have a future?

made Yuan Shao very angry.

Later, it was discovered that Xu Huang was not only comparable to Yan Liangwen Chou in force, but also surpassed Yan Liangwen Chou by several levels in leading troops to fight.

Yuan Shao was surprised by Yuan Tan's eyes, and at the same time, he extended an olive branch to Xu Huang.

As a result, he was euphemistically dismissed again.

Yuan Shao was even more popular.

"Xu You, you can make an announcement."

Yuan Shao sat in the hall, he was already the prime minister in charge of the dynasty at this moment, and he had completely the momentum of the overlord, and looked at the full hall of civil and martial arts.

Xu You got up, respectfully picked up the holy decree from Yuan Shao's case, turned around and said, "Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi, and Yuan Shang stepped forward to listen to the seal." ”

Yuan Shang looked at Yuan Tan and smiled slightly.

The three of them stepped forward to listen to the seal.

"In the first year of Jian'an, the emperor said: ......."

"Promote Yuan Tan to the history of Qingzhou Thorn."

"Yuan Xi is the history of Youzhou's assassination."

"Yuan Shangwei is the history of the state assassin."

…………

Yuan Shao obtained Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and thus took control of the imperial court.

History has changed since then, and in the future, the relationship between the princes and the fate of all parties will definitely undergo some changes. But the relationship that was formed before will certainly not change.

At this time, the Yuan family was already strong, and the foundation of Jizhou with Yecheng as the center had been completed.

Not afraid of foreign enemies, they want to expand.

And the three sons of the Yuan family have also come to their own devices.

So, Yuan Shao assigned his three sons to be the assassins of the three northern states.

And these three states are not Yuan Shao's territory.

Bingzhou was controlled by the princes Zhang Yang, and Youzhou was controlled by Gongsun Zhan.

The situation in Qingzhou is the most complicated, with the forces of Gongsun Zhan, Kong Rong, and Cao Cao.

After the decree was read, Xu Yu began to announce Yuan Shao's order again.

The eldest son, Yuan Tan, led 3,000 soldiers and horses from his headquarters into the plains, and sent Guo Tuxin to assist Gao Lan and others.

The second son, Yuan Xi, led 10,000 troops into Hejian and sent Zhang He, Xu You and others to follow.

The youngest son Yuan Shang led 20,000 troops, and sent his nephew Gao Gan, general Yan Liang, strategist Tian Feng, trial matching, Feng Ji and others to follow him into Huguan.

After the holy decree and Yuan Shao's order were combined into one, the meaning was very clear, and the famous ministers and good generals would assist, expand the territory, and win military achievements.

After the news got out.

Locally, at the court, there was an uproar.

It seems that Yuan Shao's meaning is very clear, that is, to support his young son Yuan Shang as the heir.

The day the meeting ended.

Frustrated, he came to admonish Yuan Shao, "My lord, since Ruru, he has not established a concubine, and he has established a long man but not a younger." If the age is the same, the sage should be chosen as the heir. Virtue is equal, and it must be determined by divination, which has been a ritual since ancient times. If the lord does not change his decision, trouble will arise from this incident. ”

Yuan Shao snorted coldly, "I'm going to let my sons have their own side and examine their talents, not to set up a young son." ”

At that time, Zhang Yang was incompetent,

Gongsun Zan of Youzhou annexed Liu Yu, dominated Youzhou, and was the army of tigers and wolves.

Qingzhou borders Xuzhou, Gunzhou and other places, with Tian Kai, Kong Rong, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Lu Bu, etc., and the situation is the most complicated. One wrong step and you lose everything.

This is obvious, Yuan Shang took the most soldiers and horses, with the most powerful generals, to go to the easiest place, obviously to earn qualifications and military exploits.

And Yuan Xi must be doing nothing, but there is no danger.

And Yuan Tan is hanging, and the slightest carelessness is a dead end.

What is this investigation? It is simply paving the way for Yuan Shang.

Suddenly, how many officials all ran to Yuan Shang's mansion to give gifts.

Yuan Shang regarded himself as the heir.

Yuan Tan's mansion came to the door, and only Gao Lan came.

"Made, the old man is shameless."

Yuan Tan faced everyone under his command and did not hide his anger at all.

Xun You and they looked at each other when they heard it, it was wrong for the lord to scold the old lord, but after hearing it, why didn't they have any objection?

"It's obvious that I'm helping the third child to take the upper position, but it's not bad, Lao Tzu can finally go out and do it alone."

Yuan Tan looked at Gao Lan, "General Gao, it seems that you are also a person with a hard life, and we will depend on each other for our lives in the future." ”

"If he succeeds in Ling Yunzhi one day, he dares to laugh at Wang Mang's husband!"

Xun You's eyes widened, this was a blatant rebellion, but after we heard it, why did we look forward to it so much?

Yuan Tan looked at Gao Lan's attributes.

Character Gao Lan, Martial Force 78, Dominance 79, Faction Yuan Tan, Loyalty 91.

It seems that Gao Ran has pressed the future on Yuan Tan, and after switching to the camp, he has loyalty, which is quite high.

"I am willing to serve the Lord!" Gao read this solemn salute.

In fact, the four court pillars of Hebei, that is, Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Zhang He, and Gao Lan, have very opinions on the arrangement of the lord.

It is clear that the eldest son is the most capable, how can he support the little white face?

Therefore, they were very willing to follow Yuan Tan.

"Eldest Prince, actually, General Zhang He and General Yan Liang are very willing to follow you."

Gao Ran said something heart-wrenching.

"Okay, let's not talk about it, I know it in my heart. It didn't take long for them to be impressed. ”

Gao Ran nodded heavily, and he didn't think the eldest prince said anything, but why was he so motivated?

So Yuan Tan took Xu Huang, Xun You, Guo Tu, Xin Ping, Gao Lan and others, and took 3,000 soldiers and horses from his headquarters to the plain.

On the day when the three sons of the Yuan family set out together, how many thousands of people came to watch.

Yuan Shang's side had almost 30,000 troops, mighty and imposing.

On the other hand, on Yuan Tan's side, the small force cannot be compared at all.

There are rumors all over the world that Yuan Shang has his dragon, Yuan Xi has his tiger, and Yuan Tan has his dog.
