Yuan Xi took Zhao Yun, Xun Zhan and Tian Yu all the way from Youzhou to Jizhou, and everywhere was still a dilapidated scene, many fields were barren, the people were displaced, they were not well fed and clothed, and they really didn't know the confidence that Yuan Shao had brought, so he had to rush to war with Cao Cao. Yuan Xi also sighed: "The road we have to take, there are still a lot of things to do, and the problems left by years of war have not been solved at all." Xun Zhan comforted: "The prince's benevolence is the blessing of our army, and now is indeed not the best time to start a war, but the lord's subordinates are more flattering, and Liu Xuande, who has been at war with Cao Cao for many years, is likely to be difficult to delay." Tian Yu also nodded secretly.

Zhao Yun came because he heard that Liu Bei had taken refuge in Yuan Shao, and when he heard Xun Zhan say that Liu Bei was also a belligerent person, he was immediately displeased: "Mr. is too worried, Uncle Liu Huang and Cao Cao have been at war for many years, just to maintain the Han dynasty, not for their own selfish desires, regardless of the life and death of the people." Yuan Xi stopped the two arguing and explained: "When I see Uncle Liu, I will know." "But Yuan Xi has always been very strange, how could Liu Bei lose so quickly? The group came to Jizhou quickly, and Yuan Xi didn't expect that he would be famous for subduing the Black Mountain Army this time.

This is also thanks to Yuan Shao's propaganda, posting notices on the streets, Montenegro has been eliminated by Yuan Xi, the assassin of Youzhou, and the north has been stabilized, of course, in order to stabilize people's hearts and improve morale. I only listened to the discussion of the people on the street, it was the second son of Yuan, I heard that he defeated Montenegro in Youzhou and captured Zhang Yan alive, which is really powerful. There is also a way, I heard that Yuan Youzhou only has 100,000 soldiers, but the Black Mountain Army on the opposite side has a million people, and 100,000 defeated a million, this record is probably unprecedented in our Han Dynasty. Yuan Xi listened to the praise of the people, and was secretly happy in his heart, with the foundation of the people, it would be easy to get Jizhou in the future, and he still thanked the people one by one without changing his face, and there was no smugness.

The group went back to the General's Mansion first, and Yuan Shang's mother was Yuan Shao's favorite concubine, so she was naturally presiding. The mansion is dominated by Yuan Shang, and Yuan Xi, the second son, is not very likable, and sometimes even forgotten, so when Yuan Xi pacified Gongsun Zhan, he also chose to be stationed in Youzhou, and he really has no nostalgia for this family, if you want to say that there is, that is, Yuan Shao. It should be polite or not saved, even if Yuan Shao is very likely not to be there, Yuan Xi still went to say hello to the Liu family. Liu also responded to Yuan Xi without being salty, even if he hadn't seen him for a year, he didn't have too many words, not even fake condolences. If it was before, the Liu family still valued Yuan Xi, she felt that this second child was timid and fearful, and obeyed Yuan Shao's arrangement, and could help her son inherit the Yuan family's power in the future, which was worth wooing. It's good now that he has subdued the Black Mountain thieves, even if Yuan Shao has no idea, the ministers below will regard him as a candidate for heir. As a potential opponent of his son in the future, it is strange that Liu can have a good face.

Yuan Xi didn't care about Liu's attitude, and also completed the greeting according to the normal procedure, and then took Zhao Yun and the others back to their original residence in Jizhou. Even if he was separated for a year, his house was not as deserted as he imagined, I saw Zhen Mi with the maid, and the people of the Zhen family welcomed him at the door early. Zhao Yun and Tian Yu don't know the situation of the Zhen family and Yuan Xi, Xun Zhan knows some, the marriage between Zhen Mi and Yuan Xi is completely forced by Yuan Shao's pressure, although the people of the Zhen family are optimistic about the Yuan family, they are not optimistic about Yuan Xi, so it is rumored that there is not harmony between Zhen Mi and Yuan Xi. ”

Yuan Xi nodded naturally, although he tends to make a fortune on his own, but now time does not allow it, there is no rich support behind him, it is really difficult to move an inch, and the powerful forces are supported by a huge consortium. Yuan Xi faced everyone with a smile on his face that he was extremely happy and returned to his hometown, and did not forget to step forward to support his young and beautiful wife: "It's still good at home in Jizhou, this year is really hard Madame, and of course my eldest brother." After speaking, he looked at Zhen Mi's brother Zhen Yao with a smile.

The most surprising thing is, of course, Zhen Mi, who has seen people very accurately since he was a child, this person is timid and afraid of things, and he is by no means a person who can achieve great things, so he often goes to the Zhen family to complain, and the Zhen family is not ready to block the future on Yuan Xi. Since ancient times, girls love heroes, and Zhen Mi naturally held her hand and beckoned everyone to return to the house.

Yuan Xi introduced the two sides to each other, and both sides were polite, because they had just come back, Yuan Xi also wanted to meet Yuan Shao, Zhen Yao invited Yuan Xi to come to Zhen's mansion another day to be a guest, and he said goodbye and left. Zhen Mi was very knowledgeable and asked, "Have you seen your father-in-law, I heard that I am gathering the ministers to entertain Uncle Liu Huang today." Yuan Xi replied: "I have already visited my mother just now, and my father is not here, so I will go home to visit my wife first, and it will not be too late to go later." "Yuan Xi has the experience of later generations, and his speaking level is naturally high, and he went to the General's Mansion first for filial piety, and Yuan Shao is not another matter. Then immediately went home to visit his wife for love, and Zhen Mi was also very moved and full of warmth. It's all their own people here, so naturally no one will say that Yuan Xi doesn't respect his father, and the three of them also pretend not to see it.

Yuan Xi left the three of them and went to the mansion with Zhen Mi to catch up, Yuan Xi briefly told the experience of the past year, and Zhen Mi also admired her husband. Originally, I wanted to listen to my wife talk about the major events that happened in the past year, but Zhen Mi reminded with a red face: "There is time between husband and wife, husband should go to business first, I heard that Uncle Liu Huang is also a powerful hero, you might as well know one or two." ”

Yuan Xi also laughed: "Madame has an order, so I will obey it, and wait for me to come back and serve Madame." ”

In the Jizhou camp, Yuan Shao took his subordinates and greeted Liu Bei for dinner. When Yuan Shao saw Yuan Xi coming with Zhao Yun, Xun Zhan and Tian Yu, he was also very happy to introduce to Liu Bei: "This is my second son Yuan Xi Yuan Xianyi. Yuan Shao was just about to introduce, but Liu Bei got up and asked: "Could it be that Yuan Thorn Shi who subdued Montenegro in Youzhou is really young and promising." Yuan Xi also stepped forward politely: "Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, Uncle Liu Huang is famous all over the world, and he really deserves his reputation." The mutual praise of the two was seen by everyone, some were jealous, some were happy, and some were lively.
