Text 70.There is no danger
Yuan Xi sat in the carriage, his face was still pale, this was the sequelae of his use of forbidden techniques to deal with Shi A and the others. Of course, Zhang Xiuer once warned herself that the art of luck can prolong one's life and give full play to one's potential, but it cannot be used at will, every time it is used, the damage to one's body is immeasurable, and it is really not alarmist.
Cai Yan is driving the carriage, fortunately, he has been working as a coolie in the Huns for several years, and he has also learned how to control it. The two rushed to the Taishou Mansion, and Zhang Xiu saw that Yuan Xi's face was so ugly, so he hurriedly ordered someone to invite a doctor, and also sent someone to inform Sima Yi and Jia Xu to come. Zhang Xiu knew that Cai Yan had a close relationship with Yuan Xi, and he couldn't blame Cai Yan for not taking good care of Yuan Xi, but asked anxiously: "Lord, what happened?" You didn't go to Cai to be a guest, how did you make it look like this? ”
Yuan Xi could hear Zhang Xiu's dissatisfaction with Cai Yan, and defended Cai Yan: "It was Cao Cao who did it, and actually sent someone to assassinate me, although the assassin was killed by me, but I was also seriously injured." Fortunately, Wen Ji passed by and rescued me. Zhang Xiu heard that she was wrong and blamed Cai Yan, it turned out that she saved her father-in-law, Zhang Xiu is a bold person, and she dares to admit her mistakes, apologize, and thank you, Cai Wenji is also an open-minded person, so she naturally didn't care about Zhang Xiu's gaffes.
When Sima Yi and Jia Xu heard that Yuan Xi had something, they also hurried over, and at this time, the doctor Zhang Xiu invited to Yuan Xi was treating Yuan Xi. Doctor Ping is the Langzhong of Luoyang civilization, but Yuan Xi's injury is an internal injury in the body, and his appearance looks the same as usual, but his face is a little ugly.
Originally, the generals were going to let Dr. Ping observe carefully, but Yuan Xi knew that his fault was not something that an ordinary man could see, so he sent Dr. Ping away and comforted everyone: "Don't worry, you will be fine in a few days of cultivation." There are some things that will bother you. General Zhang Xiu, you send someone to Cai's mansion to help deal with the future generations of Cai Wei's father-in-law. Zhong Dawenhe, arrange for me to go back to Youzhou next time. ”
In order not to disturb Yuan Xi's rest, everyone was ordered to exit Yuan Xi's room.
Everyone also widened their eyes when they learned that Yuan Xi had killed nine assassins including Shi A with one sword, and Zhang Xiu, as a military general, knew better than others how incredible it was to kill nine people with one sword, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and asked again: "Cai everyone, is the lord really killing nine people with one sword?" Cai Yan saw that everyone was puzzled, and he didn't believe it at the time, but the nine people did fall at the same time, and confirmed: "Although I can't see clearly how General Yuan drew his sword, but the nine people did fall to the ground at the same time, and when they died, their eyes widened, and they seemed to feel incredible." ”
Jia Xu was the first to react, and said happily: "The lord must be the one who belongs to the destiny of heaven, so that he can kill the nine masters with one sword, we should hurry up and do what the lord tells us, don't let the lord worry too much." Sima Yi is also a smart person, Yuan Xi gave himself too much shock, such a person is destined to become a big thing, and he also echoed Jia Xu's words: "What Wen He said is extremely true, but he also has to trouble General Zhang to strengthen the defense of the palace to ensure the safety of the lord." Zhang Xiu nodded, and sent his own soldiers to protect Yuan Xi and prevent strangers from approaching Yuan Xi.
In the past few days, the news that Yuan Xi was injured by Cao Cao's assassins spread far and wide, and Emperor Xian of Han heard that Cao Cao had sent assassins to assassinate Yuan Xi, and he was also shocked, and hurriedly sent people to greet Yuan Xi. Emperor Han Xian also felt that this room had something to do with Cao Ying, a few days ago, Cao Ying asked Cao Cao for a few servants because of the lack of manpower in the palace, and this happened.
Cao Ying saw that Emperor Han Xian asked, but he did not deceive, and said confidently: "I am not for Your Majesty, only by assassinating Yuan Xi, can you truly own Luoyang and reign in the world in the future." Emperor Han Xian didn't say angrily: "Don't think I don't know your true thoughts, you are afraid that I will reuse Yuan Xi, which will be bad for your father and the Cao family!" Cao Ying saw that she was broken by Liu Xie, and she was also unconvinced: "My father and you are a family, so I will really support you." Yuan Xi is a rhetoric, but he is just using you, how can he possibly hand over power to you? Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was also fed up with Cao Ying's arrogance, regarded Luoyang as Xuchang, thought it was still her territory, and threatened loudly: "I don't need you to point fingers at my affairs, if there is a next time, don't blame me for not thinking about the love between husband and wife!" After speaking, Emperor Han Xian threw up his sleeves and left Cao Ying's residence.
Xuchang also got the news of Shi A's killing from Cao Ying, Cao Cao didn't believe this was the truth, because it also meant that it was difficult for him to get close to Cai Wenji, and Cao Cao regretted losing Cai Wenji more than assassinating Yuan Xi. Cao Pi, as Shi A's only disciple, roared even more: "Impossible, impossible, my master's swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world, how could he be defeated in the hands of Yuan Xi, a nameless boy?" ”
Cao Cao deserved to be a hero, he quickly calmed down, and muttered: "This is the news from your sister from Luoyang, there will be no fake, Yuan Xi is scheming, Shi A should also be calculated by Yuan Xi." I'm afraid that Yuan Xi has learned this lesson, strengthened the guards, and will never give us a chance to assassinate again. The only way to defeat him is on the battlefield! ”
Since Xun Yu went to Luoyang, Guo Jia has become Cao Cao's most important adviser, and he also knows Cao Cao's heart very well, knowing that in the battle of Guandu, Cao Cao was afraid of Yuan Xi, so he had a way to assassinate, and encouraged: "The prime minister is just a momentary frustration, there is no need to worry too much, Yuan Xi did not take the opportunity to eliminate us last time and gave us a chance to breathe, which will be his biggest mistake." Our army is now developing rapidly, and sooner or later it will be able to eliminate Yuan Xi and unify the north. Cao Cao laughed and said, "Feng Xiao's words made my cottage open." "I was even more secretly happy in my heart, thinking about killing Yuan Xi, Cai Yan still belongs to herself, as well as Zhen Mi and Diao Chan.
After more than ten days of recuperation, Yuan Xi can be regarded as recovering his health. During this period, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and Yuan Shao both sent people to greet Yuan Xi, and Yuan Xi was also ready to say goodbye to the two before returning to Youzhou. Emperor Han Xian was also sincerely relieved to see that Yuan Xi was unharmed, and there was no hypocrisy, so that Yuan Xi must pay attention to safety next time and not travel alone. Yuan Xi thanked: "Thank you for your majesty's concern, this time there is no danger, and it is also a lesson for the minister, and the minister must remember the emperor's warning." This time as a minister, I want to say goodbye to Your Majesty, I have been away from Youzhou for a long time, and my heart is not steady! Emperor Han Xian smiled: "I'm afraid that I am worried about my wife at home, please ask Aiqing for the border matter." Yuan Xi should accept and go.
For the safety of Yuan Xi, Zhang Xiu specially asked Guo Huai to lead 5,000 Luoyang troops to escort Yuan Xi to Jizhou before returning. When he came to Yecheng, Yuan Shao said with concern: "I heard that my son was injured by the assassin, and it was difficult for my father to sleep and eat, I wanted to go to Luoyang to visit in person, maybe I thought you would come, it's okay, otherwise I will definitely wash Xuchang in blood and let Cao Cao pay for his blood debts!" ”
Yuan Xi listened to Yuan Shao's heartfelt words, and said very moved: "Thank you for your father's concern, some assassins can't hurt the child, as for Cao Cao, father doesn't need to worry, I will find him to settle this account sooner or later." I came here today to greet my father, the most important thing for our army at present is to deal with foreign tribes in the frontier, so as not to be ridiculed by the people of the world that my Yuan family only knows personal enmity and ignores the general interests of the country! Yuan Shao saw Yuan Xi say this, so he had no choice but to give up, but for Yuan Xi's safety, he sent Jizhou soldiers and horses to escort him personally. Under Jia Xu's proposal, Yuan Xi accepted Yuan Shao's kindness, and with the escort of Jizhou soldiers and horses, he was not afraid that Yuan Tan would come up with any moths, and returned to Youzhou directly through the Qingzhou border.
Qingzhou, Yuan Tan assassinated the history of the mansion, Yuan Tan was with his cronies Guo Tu and Xin to discuss affairs. Suddenly, his subordinates reported that Yuan Xi's team passed through Qingzhou, and there were more than 10,000 people. Yuan Tan no longer had the same impulse as before, and his advisers also advised him not to act like this, remembering his childhood with Yuan Tan, he no longer had the idea of sending troops to kill Yuan Xi. After getting the news that Yuan Xi was passing through Qingzhou, Yuan Tan was ready to send troops to respond, Guo Tu and Xin Ping thought that Yuan Tan had not given up his previous thoughts, and tried hard to dissuade him. Yuan Xi smiled bitterly: "The two gentlemen misunderstood, Xianyi is my brother, how can I be so impulsive?" Not long ago, I heard that my brother was injured by Cao Cao's assassins, and this time I was going to bring a gift to greet Ah! The two were also at ease, preparing gifts according to Yuan Tan's orders, although Yuan Tan went to comfort Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi had 10,000 troops around him, and he was not afraid to see Yuan Tan coming with troops, but seeing that Yuan Tan had few soldiers, he knew that he had no malicious intentions, so he stepped forward and said politely: "It's a blessing to meet my brother here." Yuan Tan said with a smile: "I heard that the second brother came to send him off, and the last time I heard that the second brother was injured by Cao Cao's assassin, I was also worried, but unfortunately there are many things in Qingzhou, and I can't go to the condolences for my brother. Yuan Tan ordered his subordinates to carry the tonic and give it to Yuan Xi. Yuan Xi was also happy to see that Yuan Tan was so polite, not as Jia Xu predicted, accepted Yuan Tan's gift, and after saying goodbye to Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi continued to go north to Youzhou. Finally, after a few days of trekking, I arrived at Jixian County without danger.
