Jizhou, Yecheng.

"No pills...... Let's go! The voice of the lack of qi sounded angrily.

The wide sleeves flew, and with a bang, the porcelain bowl broke on the ground, the decoction splashed, the porcelain pieces shattered and flew out, and a pair of steps just crossed the threshold, and the porcelain pieces rolled to the feet that came in and turned.

The atmosphere in the room was solemn, and the maids serving around hung their heads and did not dare to make a statement, and the figure who came in front of him, wearing a green robe and brown robe, and a well-proportioned figure, was not to drive Tian Feng, he waved back to the servants on both sides of the bed, and arched his hand to Yuan Shao's wife Liu, with a solemn and righteous expression.

The woman saw that it was Tian Feng, and she didn't say much, nodded, turned around and left the room, and there were Yuan Shao's eldest son Yuan Tan and third son Yuan Shang in the side room, the former was tall and powerful, and his appearance was rough, and when he heard the sound of the porcelain bowl breaking inside, he wanted to push the door in, but after a while, Liu Shi withdrew from inside.

"Mother, father, is he well?"

"I'm sick of breath...... Where to take the medicine. Liu's eyes showed worry: "Just now Tian Beijia also came to persuade me, I don't know how, Xiansi and you Shang'er also go in, let him see it in his eyes, and his heart will be better." ”

Yuan Shang, who is one shoulder closer to his brother, is handsome, but he also seems a little weak, but his words are clear and quite atmospheric: "Mother, don't worry, I'll go in with my brother to see my father, the second brother and the second sister-in-law, they will be fine." ”

Liu nodded with satisfaction, and then let the maid help him back. At this time, the two brothers gently pushed open the side door and walked into Yuan Shao's bedroom, where the sound of talking continued.

“…… Liaodong has been pacified by Gongsun Zhi, although Feng does not know why Gongsun Du does not unite with the lord or Cao Cao, but he is alone with Gongsun Zhi, the evil wolf, but now is the best time to strike at Shanggu County, Shanggu County hundreds of thousands of Xianbei, Wuhuan prisoners to be placed, Gongsun Zhi's soldiers have just experienced two major battles, it is the time when morale is exhausted, if it is unexpected, attack Shangdang, Yanmen, Juyong three places, so that it is difficult to take care of each other, once a breakthrough is made, lead the army to drive straight into the first place, and wait for the next year's spring warm, speed up the march, if a pincer attack can be formed, the safety of Shanggu County is in the hands of the lord! ”

In the excited words, Yuan Shao, who was leaning on the couch, looked at the impassioned old man in front of him, his eyes moved slightly, and for a moment, he struggled to get up, "Yuan Hao's words are very good at me, Gongsun Zhi has always won with wonder, so I will do the opposite...... He will be caught off guard. ”

"If the lord thinks like this, it's right, you can't treat the white wolf with common sense, he uses strangeness, and the lord also needs to be strange to get rid of his design."

Yuan Shao, who was sick, finally had blood on his face, and laughed, and Tian Feng on the opposite side arched his hand and stood there solemnly.

"Yuan Hao doesn't have to be too polite, it's late autumn now, Shanggu County should be the most lively time, in the past, Gongsun Zhi often used less grams, nothing more than sneak attacks, detours, if this surprise attack passes, defeat him once, his reputation for winning will be broken, and my Jizhou soldiers will not have too much pressure in their hearts, Yuan Hao should help me."

At this time, the weak words in the bed room today can be said like this, Tian Feng finally sighed in his heart that the lord could accept his suggestion, that is, he knelt down and agreed, Yuan Shao stretched out a hand from the bed to support him.

"In the past, I should have listened to Yuan Hao's words." A smile appeared on his face, "You and Fu Zhu are different from other Guo Tu, Feng Ji and others, you have an upright temperament and dare to speak out, today my mood has dissipated, let's talk about how to raid that white ......"

While he was talking, in the courtyard outside the house, someone came running from the corridor with a letter, knocked on the door and entered, interrupting the sound of talking inside, Yuan Shao took the plain silk handed over, unfolded it and glanced at it, his face remained unchanged, and waved away the subordinate, Chaotian Feng smiled and said: "Suddenly something is inconvenient for Yuan Hao to continue, and when I am well, I will recruit Yuan Hao to come over the house and discuss it carefully." ”

"Don't hesitate, my lord! Although Feng doesn't know what is written on it, but he gave up a son and flattened the five counties, this opportunity is fleeting, and I am afraid that there will be no more in the future, so please think twice. ”

His hand squeezed the silk slightly, Yuan Shao's eyes turned away, and his voice sank: "...... Yuan Hao, you ...... Let's get out. ”

In such words, Tian Feng glanced at the plain silk, had to grit his teeth and nodded, bowed to Yuan Shao, hesitated again and again, and finally withdrew from the door, walked lightly across the courtyard, a leaf fell to the top of his head, he grabbed it and pinched it in his hand, raised his eyes and looked at the big tree in the courtyard, the yellow leaves falling on the branches were falling on the stone table one by one, he let out a sigh of relief, raised his head and closed his eyes.

"The timing is wrong, I don't know what year and month it will be waiting for." He whispered.

After the figure left, in the room filled with the smell of medicinal herbs, the atmosphere became more and more solemn, and there was no sound around it, it seemed dead and silent, Yuan Shao sat on the edge of the bed with the support of his eldest son, looked at the medicine bowl on the broken ground, and shook his head: "Tian Feng's plan is indeed very good, it's not because his father doesn't want to use it, but once he uses it, Xi'er and Zhen Mi are afraid that they will be more and more auspicious, not his son, he will naturally not be heartbroken......"

The words paused abruptly, Yuan Shao glanced at the five big and three thick sons, "Xiansi, it's time for you to go back to Qingzhou to sit in the town, for your father's body to hold on, and stay in Qingzhou to guard against Cao Mengde." ”

Yuan Tan was stunned for a moment, the hand that was originally holding slowly loosened and hung down, and it took a while before he spoke, but his voice was a little hoarse: "Since my father's body is fine...... The boy will go back to Qingzhou first, and then come back to visit his father and mother when the New Year is over. With his head bowed, he took two steps back and slowly walked out of the side door, and as the door closed, his eyes kept on his father's silhouette until the gap was closed.

There was a soft sound on the door closing, Yuan Shao's body moved weakly, turned to look at the third son next to him and didn't speak, just motioned for him to come closer, held Yuan Shang's hand and patted it, and sighed: "Xianfu...... How nice it would be if you were the firstborn, and you wouldn't have to be so embarrassed as a father. ”

The hand gently patted the back of his son's hand, and it was already November outside, late autumn.

Soon after, the messenger team left Yecheng thousands of miles away, crossed the mountains and crossed the majestic pass, and arrived at the already cold and windy Shanggu County before the first snow of winter.

It seems that Gongsun Zhi is not in the city at this moment, but fortunately, Xu Yu is not a person from Jizhou who was treated badly, so he went to the post house to settle in a warm house and wait for the summons, and at this time, Gongsun Zhi and Li Ru, Tian Yu, and a group of generals in the army walked near the workshop area where craftsmen gathered.

The cold wind is whistling across the earth, as the New Year is approaching, the workshop belonging to the merchant is about to stop, the craftsmen are returning home one after another to prepare for the New Year, at this time the sound of people in the dense workshop area is rarely heard, walking through the archway with the word "workshop" written on both sides, both sides are large and small courtyards, occasionally someone will enter from the inside, it is the courtyard that stays behind, and the workshop belonging to the yamen is still behind this area, but at this moment Gongsun does not let everyone ride a horse, while visiting, while passing towards the destination.

“.…… In this area, most of the merchants will buy the fur, bones and bones here processing, and then transport to the south, of course, from all over the Central Plains, or the mountains of private mining of copper and iron ore quietly transported here for forging, and then sold to the government, in recent years we have also found a few rich veins in the mountains, so the situation is slightly better, but the mining method is not as effective as the Central Plains, the output is still not enough. ”

Although Li Ru handed over the errand of the county, he knew everything about Shanggu County, which had been in charge of Shanggu County for several years, every grass and tree, every bucket and every liter, and while walking, he introduced the wolf king who was wearing a big coat beside him. After all, Gongsun Zhi has been fighting outside all the year round, and when he returned to Shanggu County, he was either at home or in the military camp, and although the yamen also passed, he did not really see such an impression on the spot.

"At the beginning, this sparsely populated county was not easy to get to where it is today......" Gongsun looked at the courtyard door of the workshop with festive calligraphy and paintings pasted around, and sighed with emotion, "....... If it weren't for Yuan Shao's big bear pressing tightly, like a knife hanging above his head, he would not have been able to achieve such an achievement. ”

"Speaking of Yuan Shao, when does the lord plan to see that Xu You?" Li Ru tightened the fox tail wrapped around his neck and asked casually.

"........ huh." Gongsun Zhi strode forward with his hands, waved his hand indifferently, walked to the door of an imposing workshop in front of him and stopped, looking at the banner of the towering sky, the white giant wolf waved in the wind, squinted his eyes, and the heroic voice fell in the wind.

“…… I don't say anything, who in the north dares to move? Keep him hanging in the inn. ”
