On the day Yuan Tan returned to Yecheng, Ma Fei also got the news.

After dormant for more than ten days without moving, he just felt that it was not time yet.

Every day, Yuan Tan would go to the market to choose what he needed, and Yuan Shang's subordinates were much more restrained, and there were fewer people to find out Yuan Kang's whereabouts than in the past.

In the hut where the Night Thorn is hiding.

Ma Fei and Yuan Kang sat on the top, and ten night thorns sat around them.

"The eldest son has been coming to Yecheng for more than ten days." Ma Fei said: "The person installed by the third prince is now much more restrained, and it is the time for us to act. ”

"What is the general going to do?" Yuan Kang asked.

"With the eldest son here, the fourth son can return to the Yuan family. Seeing Yuan Gong, there can be an end to the matter as soon as it should be. Ma Fei said: "Even if the second son and the third son have the intention to kill them, they have no way to start!" ”

Yuan Kang was still a little worried.

Yecheng is not Yuan Tan's land.

Yuan Shang is deeply entrenched in Yecheng, and it is not easy to compete with him with Yuan Tan's strength.

"I'm going to see the eldest son tonight. You are waiting to protect the fourth son, and you must not have the slightest negligence! ”

"It's possible for the general to go alone." A night thorn said, "It's better to choose two people to accompany you!" ”

"No!" Ma Fei refused: "It's not appropriate to act when there are too many people, I just go to see the eldest son, and I don't need to be accompanied by you." ”

"General Ma, be careful!" Yuan Kang said: "A certain is waiting for the general's good news. ”

As the sun sets, the last rays of afterglow disappear at the end of the horizon, and the night envelops Yecheng.

There were not half pedestrians on the quiet streets, except for the occasional team or two patrolling Yuan Jun walking by.

Dressed in night clothes, Ma Fei approached the Yuan family's mansion under the cover of the alleys and night in the city.

once followed Yuan Xu into Yuan's house. He knows the terrain very well inside, and he also knows where Yuan Tan is staying.

climbed over the wall and crossed the house to enter Yuan's house, and it didn't take much effort to find Yuan Tan's residence.

There were two guards standing outside the house.

Just because he was in the inner courtyard of the Yuan family. The guards weren't very alert.

The two of them pressed their hands on the hilt of their swords, and their bodies shook slightly. It's all a bit of a snooze.

After observing for a moment, while the two of them were relaxed, Ma Fei quietly approached.

One of them shook a little violently.

He even bent his leg twice and almost fell to the ground.

Taking advantage of the defenselessness of the two of them, Ma Fei drew his short sword and stepped forward, raised the hilt of his sword and slammed it into the back of the head of the guard who was almost fallen.

The soldier's eyes rolled and he went limp.

The other guard sensed something was wrong and was about to draw his sword, when Ma Fei punched him in the face.

Before the defender could resist, the back of his head was knocked by a hard object.

Ma Fei just knocked the two of them out with skill, and didn't take their lives.

There was movement outside the house. Yuan Tan, who had already fallen asleep, asked, "Who?" ”

"The eldest son, it's so-and-so!" Ma Fei lowered his voice and said, "It's urgent, I have to make this decision!" ”

"Who are you?" didn't hear Ma Fei's voice, but Yuan Tan's tone was much softer.

"Under the command of the fifth prince, Ma Fei!"

Ma Fei often follows Yuan Xu, and of course Yuan Tan knows him.

"It turned out to be General Ma!" Yuan Tan said: "If the general has something important, please come in and speak." ”

Ma Fei first dragged the two unconscious guards into the house, and then arched his hand and said, "Ma Fei has seen the eldest son!" ”

The room was lit with an oil lamp, and the room was dimly lit.

He dragged in two soldiers. Yuan Tan said: "When the general saw that a certain person ordered them to pass through, why did he kill them?" ”

"I didn't die, I just fainted!" Ma Fei said: "This matter is very important, don't dare to let others know, don't blame the eldest son!" ”

"The general is in trouble. But it doesn't hurt to say it! ”

Ma Fei was about to speak, when there was a chaotic noise outside.

"Something happened in the eldest son's room, go and check it out quickly!" Someone shouted outside.

With shouting. There were also the footsteps of many people running over.

Hearing many people running over, Yuan Tan shouted, "A certain call for two people to talk outside the door." What are you waiting for? ”

was about to rush to Yuan Tan's door, and everyone stopped when they heard his shout.

The lead officer said, "I'll hear the movement." I thought that there were thieves who were not good for the eldest son! ”

"There are no thieves, you wait!"

The crowd retreated.

When the footsteps were far away, Ma Fei said: "The third prince wants to kill the fourth son, and we have already rescued the person!" ”

"Where's the mediocrity?" Yuan Tan asked, "Is he okay?" ”

"The fourth prince is fine, but the city is full of searchers, and he is not allowed to return to the Yuan family unless the eldest prince greets him in person."

"Xianfu is so generous!" Yuan Tan snorted coldly: "Although there are concubines, after all, the same father and brother will not be such a dead hand!" ”

Ma Fei did not respond.

The Yuan family has long been like this, and Yuan Xu, who is competing for favor, is also caught in it.

The Battle of Puyang is proof of this.

"What about picking up Xianyong?" Yuan Tan asked.

"Does the eldest son have a plan?"

"Xianxin once said to a certain person that if he saw Xianyong, he could be brought to his father."

"The son has an arrangement, and the eldest son can act according to the plan! It is inconvenient to delay here, so I will say goodbye first! ”

"The general stays!" Ma Fei was about to leave, and Yuan Tan asked, "Where will you go to greet Xianyong?" ”

"Tomorrow, someone will meet the eldest son in the market!"

With a few words, the horse flew back in salute.

Not long after he left, the two unconscious guards woke up.

found that they were in the house, and the two of them were confused.

Struggling to sit up and look around, they found Yuan Tan who was contemplating his eyebrows, and the two of them were suddenly frightened.

"Eldest son!" Kneeling on the ground, the two of them kowtowed like pounding garlic: "The two of us are guilty, I beg Gongzi to punish them!" ”

"What are you two guilty of?" Looking at the two of them coldly, Yuan Tan asked.

"There's a thief sneaking into ......," one of them looked left and right.

There was only Yuan Tan and no one else in the room.

He felt as if something was wrong, and quickly shut up!

"Where are the thieves?" Yuan Tan said: "A certain has always been here, no one has ever come, and you two have never entered the house." Go ahead! ”

The guards knew that someone must have come, but Yuan Tan denied it.

They understood that the one who went into the room first must have said something to him.

Although they didn't know who was coming, and they didn't know what he had said to Yuan Tan, the two guards knew that tonight's incident must not be mentioned to anyone.

Yuan Tan didn't want to pursue it, and the two guards left as if they were amnesty.

Sitting on the bed, Yuan Tan was still thinking about what Ma Fei said.

Tomorrow, someone will lead him to meet Yuan Kang.

Bring Yuan Kang to Yuan Shao, and what Yuan Shang and the others have done will surely surface.

Yecheng won't be calm anymore!

Leaving Yuan Tan's residence, Ma Fei avoided the patrol soldiers under the cover of the bushes, and climbed over the wall and walked out of the house.

Squatting in the corner, he looked left and right to make sure no one had noticed him before running to where the Night Thorn was hiding.

Knock gently on the door very regularly.

A night thorn opened the door and poked his head out.

Seeing that it was Ma Fei, he hurriedly stepped aside.

Entering the house, Ma Fei said: "I have already met the eldest son, and he will welcome the fourth son back to Yuan's house early tomorrow morning." (To be continued.) )
