The side hall of Yuan's mansion has always been the place where Yuan Shao received guests. At this time, the lights are on, and there are also lamps here. The dim flames danced, and the shadows of everyone in the room trembled.

Mrs. Liu's eyes seemed to be on fire.

"Rebel, on a good day, you actually committed murder? On your knees! ”

She sat in front, while several of the Yuan Mansion's staff and some important guests stood around and gathered in a circle. In the circle, it is Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang.

Hearing that his titular mother asked him to kneel, Yuan Xi, who is a modern person, did not move at all, and said, "Why kneel? ”

Mrs. Liu was furious.

This second son had the impression of being a wooden nerd, studying Confucius and Mengyi in the room all day long, but if he was asked to come out to ask questions, he would stammer, and he couldn't say anything clearly. I think that when Yuan Shao was a staff member under He Jin, he was eloquent and talented, and he responded to every call, how majestic and domineering he was. Why did you give birth to such an elm pimple?

Mrs. Liu looked at the son in front of her, with clotted blood clots remaining on her face, but it was different from before, and at this moment it seemed to be a bit similar to her husband Yuan Shao. But she looked at the third son Yuan Shang next to her, and immediately compared Yuan Xi again. That's the real Xuan Ang man.

She laughed angrily and asked, "You don't know why you're kneeling?" ”

Yuan Xi raised his head: "I don't know." ”

Mrs. Liu gasped, and Yuan Shang hurriedly stepped forward to rub her shoulders and said, "Mother, don't be angry." I'll say. ”

He turned around, pointed at his second brother and said, "This is what's wrong with you, second brother." Originally, as a younger brother, I shouldn't have talked to you like that. But I ask you, did the furry pet die at your hands? ”

Yuan Xi nodded.

Yuan Shang continued: "Mao Pet and I just went to say hello to my sister-in-law, who knew that you rushed in angrily and carried a sword, didn't you?" ”

He asked a bit trickily, Yuan Xi was indeed angrily carrying a sword, but the first half of the sentence referred to to the Zhen family to say hello was a bit of an understatement.

But Yuan Xi didn't notice his little trick at all, and continued: "Yes. ”

Yuan Shang was secretly happy and said: "That's right, you came over with a sword and killed Mao Pet indiscriminately." He works under his father's account, although he is only a pen holder in the army, but he is also filial piety and honesty, and if he says no, he will not have a life. Second brother, I didn't say you, you are too impulsive. If it weren't for Mao Pet blocking you at that time, maybe you would have split me......"

As soon as he said this, the faces of several staff members became bright. If it is a killing pet, then it may be a private dispute, and with Yuan Xi's identity, it may not be resolved. But if it's fratricide, it's serious. As we all know, Yuan Shao himself suffered losses from his brothers, and he was also bullied by Yuan Shu back then, so he was extremely reluctant to calculate each other between brothers, let alone take a knife to get serious. At the beginning, the eldest son Yuan Tan was just fighting openly and secretly with Yuan Shang on some occasions, so he was sent to Qingzhou by Yuan Shao. This time, it actually made a fuss to death, and now the big guy looked at Yuan Xi's gaze, and it turned into sympathy.

Yuan Xi looked around, pointed at Tian Feng and said, "If my father Yuan Shao saw Mr. Tian standing next to my mother and teasing her on his wedding night, may I ask him to kill Mr. Tian directly with a knife?" Or do I want to say hello to you first? ”

Mrs. Liu's anger, which had just calmed down, rose again, and she said angrily: "Beast, what did you say? She was so angry that her fingers trembled, and her eyes widened like brass bells.

Yuan Xi ignored her and said to Tian Feng: "Mr. Tian, what do you say?" ”

Tian Feng looked at Mrs. Liu's dignity with some embarrassment, thinking that he would never tease her. He twisted the beard under his chin and said, "With Jizhou Mu's temper, most of them have to use the knife directly." "He is an honest man, he has always said one thing and two things, and when he takes the words, he is also unscrupulous.

"Bold Tianfeng!" Feng Ji, another strategist next to him, spoke: "The lord has always been lenient and benevolent, and he has always been courteous to us, how can he use a knife against his subordinates?" It's just nonsense. ”

This Feng Ji also didn't have a long brain, he originally wanted to pat the horse's ass, but the owner of the sycophant was not there, but Mrs. Liu was so angry that her face turned blue, but she felt that she was being molested, and it was better for her husband to kill her directly.

Yuan Xi spread his hands and made a helpless expression, which means that everything is silent.

Where could Yuan Shang have thought that this second brother could say this, and he was a little weak for a while, after all, he and Mao Pet were indeed suspected of harassing female dependents.

Tian Feng said: "This matter, it is better to leave it to the lord." ”

Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

I saw Yuan Shao enter the house surrounded by Fu Zhu and others, and while stepping over the threshold, he threw his hat to the ground, and shouted loudly: "How can this be reasonable! Outrageous! ”

He followed him and advised, "The lord is angry, and you must not be like him. ”

When several strategists in the room heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, not knowing what Yuan Shao was angry about.

Yuan Shao snorted, and then sat down on the seat, spread his legs, took a cup of tea on the table, and swept it away.

Yuan Xi looked over from here, and saw that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shang looked a little similar, both had Chinese faces, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and their beards were neatly combed. But Yuan Shao's face is obviously more resolute, while Yuan Shang's skin is a little whiter, as the saying goes, it is a little white face.

Yuan Shao drank all the tea, and then scolded: "Piff dares! ”

Tian Feng, Feng Ji and the others immediately pulled and said, "What are you angry about, lord?" ”

Frustrated with drooping eyebrows, he said: "The cavalry of Youzhou was found in the north of Yecheng, about fifty horsemen, and Gongsun Zhan personally led the team, all of which were white horses. They seemed to have come to survey the terrain, and a group of people walked around the city and then went leisurely. ”

Several people immediately understood that Yuan Shao was so popular, and his old rival Gongsun Zan could come and go freely next to Yuan's hometown, and the vigilance around Yecheng was really paper-paste. Wolf Yantai, which spent so much money to build, didn't call the police? And the battalion of armored men, are they all wood?

Yuan Shao heard them muttering beside him, and said: "Lu Yi is really too blind, obviously he has already discovered the Gongsun Zhan cavalry in advance, he actually doesn't dare to lead the troops up!" ”

Fu Zhu added: "The general said that he would not attack until the armor soldiers formed a formation. ”

Lu Yi was the general who led the troops at the time of Han Fu, and took the initiative to sacrifice Yecheng, so he was valued by Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao once joked after drinking that when he became the emperor in the future, he would be crowned as the general of the imperial court. After the word spread, everyone called General Koji Yoshi.

Hearing what the frustrated professor said, everyone let out an "oh".

Yuan Shao scolded: "Only fifty horsemen, even if we have one enemy and ten, our soldiers and horses can level them." He had 3,000 people, and he was so frightened that he cowered in the military camp outside the city, and let go of the opportunity to capture Gongsun Zan alive, which is really unreasonable. ”

Tian Feng arched his hand and said: "The lord is angry, and General Liyi is not unreasonable. Cavalry charges are not something that can be resisted by a large number of people. In case of a mishap that leads to a rout, Yecheng is also in danger. ”

Yuan Shao said: "I led five hundred Xiyuan cavalry to pacify tens of thousands of Xuzhou Yellow Turbans overnight, how could I not know this truth." But when the brave meets on a narrow road, this horseman is so afraid of battle, he simply loses the prestige of our army, and makes Gongsun Chan see the joke in vain. I'm so angry! ”

Tian Feng was not good at military affairs, so he didn't dare to persuade him.

After a while, Yuan Shao was tired of scolding, turned around, looked at Mrs. Liu and said, "Madam, what are you doing when so many of you get together?" ”
