Chapter 582: Each has its own plan
Wang Xu negotiated with the Yan family in his own way, and was recognized by the ancestor of the Yan family and the current head of the family, and of course the relationship improved rapidly, except for Yan Liang, who still didn't have a good face for him, everyone else treated him as a VIP.
In this era of war, between these gate valve families, strength, ability and power are the last word in resolving contradictions.
As for Yan Ming herself, she was completely immersed in a dazed complexity, she didn't even know whether she was happy, depressed, helpless, or something else, in short, she locked herself in Yan's mansion, and her words became less and less.
Wang Xu tried to communicate with him, but unfortunately all he got was Yan Ming's complicated eyes.
In the end, he also chose to be silent, not to explain, not to be appeased, not to say much, and only left one sentence: "No matter what you still think now, what you still worry about, and what you still look forward to, but I have lost patience, and I don't have time to continue waiting, and you will have decades to think slowly in the future." ”
"But now, you, I want it!"
After that, he never saw Yan Ming alone, and put all his thoughts on other things.
At the same time, Yuan Shao's actions were also very fast, as much as more than 100,000 catties of gold and silver, it only took ten days to raise all the preparations, and he didn't need to worry about the next things, transportation arrangements, disguises, and the specific matters handed over to Jingzhou, naturally his trusted subordinates wanted to do it.
As for the precious treasure that promised Wang Xu to exchange it for 50,000 stone of grain, he also prepared it, and generously handed it over first, and sent it to the Yan family.
He is also very concerned about the handling of marriages. Because this time it was not Wang Xu's simple concubine. Instead, he married Yan Ming as his wife. That is, the side room, which is completely different from the concept of concubine, and he believes that this can deepen the relationship with Wang Xu.
At the same time, Yan Liang is his confidant and favorite general, and he should come forward.
It's just that because of the tight time, the wedding date is also relatively close.
It was just a month and a half before Wang Xu arrived in Yecheng, and this wedding was held in a heavy manner under the promotion of many efforts. Its scale is so grand that it can be called the first case since the chaos in the world, and even Wang Xu, Yan Jia, and Yuan Shao, who are the organizers, have never thought of it.
The important ministers of all the parties under the command of the Yuan family in Hebei, except for the people guarding the border, all the others rushed to arrive, and the officials of all sizes gathered together, of course, these people were not because of Wang Xu, but for the sake of Yuan Shao and the face of the Yan family.
The other two are the celebrities and wealthy gentry of the four states of Qing, You, and Hebei. These people are here to join in the fun.
The third is also the most unexpected. It was representatives from other forces, who arrived in groups in the name of different people, and even Cao Cao had quite a few.
These people are in the name of congratulations, but the actual purpose is probably not so simple, Yuan Shao definitely doesn't like it, but this time it is Wang Xu's wedding, everyone is nominally an important minister of the Han Dynasty, and there is no war, so it is not easy for him to stop it.
As a result, those who were invited came, and those who were not invited came, and everyone was mixed.
In the end, this wedding is no longer like a wedding, more like a big party, each with its own purpose, each with its own plans, the real protagonist Yan Ming, but quietly hidden behind the scenes, except for the need for her to go through all the etiquette in the process, most people do not put their minds on this.
It's a pity that no matter what, the Yan family itself is very satisfied, for them, marrying in a beautiful way, Yan Ming has a home, and the prestige has also been enhanced, which is the greatest value of this wedding.
It's a pity that when a person saw this qiē, his eyes were cracked, and the resentment in his heart reached the extreme.
That is Yuan Shao's second son, Yuan Xi!
In his eyes, this kind of bustle, this kind of festivity, whether it is true or false on everyone's face, but the smile that overflows seems to be an insult to him.
He has been favored in a high position since he was a child, he wants the wind to be windy, to be rainy, as long as he likes and wants, he can get it!
When he happened to see Yan Ming's daughter in the grove outside the city, he was immersed in it, unable to extricate himself, in his eyes, Yan Ming is the most beautiful woman in the world, at that moment, he swore that no matter what, he would take it in his hands.
Originally, everything was as he wished, but at the last moment, a Wang Xu suddenly appeared and broke all this qiē!
He felt ashamed, angry, sad, and hateful!
"Bang ......"
"Bell ......"
"Knock ......"
Everything in the room that could be broken was thrown by Yuan Xi, and he kept cursing in his mouth: "Wang Xu dog thief, the hatred of taking his wife is not shared, if I don't kill you, I swear not to be a man!" ”
At this moment, in addition to him who was furious, only a middle-aged man with a gloomy face stood quietly in the room, quietly watching him vent.
He is a diner recruited by Yuan Xi, and he is also his special trusted guard, with extraordinary martial arts and vicious methods, but he is very loyal to Yuan Xi, because he was hunted down by the enemy in the early years, and it was Yuan Xi who saved his life when he was seriously injured and dying.
Yuan Xi has fallen enough, scolded enough, been crazy enough, and his reason has returned to his mind!
He is not stupid, he knows that if his father Yuan Shao does not support it, then he can't talk about Wang Xu at all, no matter how much he scolds.
He sat down on the ground with a painful face, his hands cut at some point, and a little blood fell to the ground.
"Young master, do you want to kill him?" The middle-aged man spoke, his voice a little hoarse, but calm.
"Of course!" Yuan Xi raised his head suddenly, his eyes were full of hatred that could not be dissolved, but then he buried his head in pain, and said dejectedly: "It's a pity, now my father depends on him for everything, and he can't kill him!" ”
"Not necessarily!" The middle-aged man's face became even more gloomy.
These words are like a small fire, and the hatred in Yuan Xi's heart is already like the dry firewood, where can it not be?
In an instant, Yuan Xi's cold gaze shot in. "Izumi, do you have a way?"
"Yes!" The middle-aged man named Izumi still had a calm face.
"Quick, tell me, how did you kill that dog thief!" Yuan Xi was so excited that he couldn't control himself, and rushed forward and grabbed Hequan's collar.
"Young master, please calm down first!" Izumi said indifferently.
"Good, good! I'm calm. You said. Yuan Xi took a deep breath. Force yourself to let go. Slowly retreat.
Izumi's face finally changed a little at this moment, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
"Young master, Wang Xu is protected by Duke Yuan, as long as he is in Hebei, he will definitely have no chance, so he can only wait for him to return to Jingzhou on the way."
Hearing this, the glimmer of hope that was still in Yuan Xi's eyes was quickly extinguished, and he said bitterly: "Hequan." You think too simply, my father has the intention to use him, and has ordered Zhang He to lead people to protect him to the south, General Zhang, you should also know that martial arts are extraordinary, how can it be so easy to kill Wang Xu under his protection? ”
"My subordinates know!" Izumi disagreed, and continued: "And the subordinates also know that they take the sea route. ”
"By sea?" Yuan Xi was stunned for a moment, and then said curiously: "How do you know?" ”
At this moment, a smile finally appeared on the gloomy face on Izumi's face, but this smile didn't look comfortable. "The young master must have forgotten. My subordinates are very familiar with the sea and sea-related affairs! ”
"Since that day, the young master has come back and said angrily that he will kill this man. The subordinates were concerned about this matter, and some time ago they ordered someone to investigate, and learned that Yuan Gong was looking for excellent seafarers recently, and was also looking for the best sea ships, and Yuan Gong was now dealing with Wang Xu's affairs wholeheartedly, so as expected, it must be prepared for him to go south. ”
"I see!" Yuan Xi nodded, but his expression became even more depressed. "Since they're by sea, isn't it even harder to kill?"
"Young master!" He Quan shook his head, his eyes flashing: "People who don't know the sea think it's difficult to kill people on the sea, but people who know the sea know that it's a place where you don't need to clean up the aftermath of killing people." ”
"You ......" Yuan Xi's eyes gradually widened, he was familiar with Hequan's character, and he knew that he was absolutely sure that he would say such a thing.
He Quan was not in a hurry to explain anything, but was silent for a moment, knowing that Yuan Xi was waiting a little anxious, before he suddenly said: "It's just that if you follow the methods of your subordinates, then I'm afraid you will have to sacrifice General Zhang He!"
"Sacrifice Zhang He?" Yuan Xi gasped. "Isn't there a better way?"
"Nope!" This time, He Quan was also very sure: "If Zhang He is always guarding Wang Xu's side, it is impossible to avoid him alone." ”
"This ......" Yuan Xi hesitated, after all, Zhang He is a general in the army, with high prestige and great influence, no matter how willful he is, these can still be distinguished.
"Young master, this subordinate can't make a decision, wait for the young master to make a decision and then tell his subordinates." After Izumi finished speaking, he bowed and prepared to retreat.
"Wait!" At this moment, Yuan Xi's face changed again and again, and his hatred and reason for Wang Xu kept fighting in his mind.
In the end, it was obvious that hatred still had the upper hand, and he gritted his teeth fiercely: "There are many generals in Hebei, and there is no shortage of Zhang He." ”
After all, he has not been in charge of affairs, and has been living under the protection of Yuan Shao, and it is difficult to understand the severity.
But although the decision had already been made, he was also a little scared, and couldn't help asking: "What if I fail?" ”
"There will be no failure!" Izumi looked very confident, thought about it, and said gloomily: "If you follow the methods of your subordinates, the chance of failure is very small, and even if you fail, absolutely no one can find evidence that we did it." ”
"Are you sure?" Yuan Xi asked again uneasily.
"Sure!"
"Good!" Yuan Xi trusted Hequan very much and mustered up courage. "What does that need to be done?"
"Young master, you can ......"
Seeing that his determination had been made, Izumi did not hesitate, and stepped forward and whispered in his ear......
On the third day after Wang Xu's wedding, he was in a hurry to return to Jingzhou, and finally resigned to Yuan Shao!
At this moment, Yuan Shao was also worried about an accident in Jingzhou, how could he not follow it, and immediately bluntly said that everything was ready, and the two discussed, and quietly entered the Bohai Sea that night, and boarded the ship from the Bohai Sea to the south.
As long as the people involved in this matter know, no one else even the Yan family knows that he is leaving.
In the afternoon, Wang Xu found Yan Liang. "Didn't you always want to teach me a lesson? Go to your house to practice martial arts. ”
Yan Liang, who had always been obsessed with him, thought he had heard it wrong at first and couldn't believe it. "You dare to fight me?"
"Why not?"
"Okay, let's go!"
Yan Liang didn't say a word, his face was full of excitement, and he only felt that the stuffiness in his chest finally had time to vent.
He had long wanted to teach Wang Xu a lesson, but as long as Wang Xu didn't agree to the competition, he wouldn't dare to take the initiative, because the nature of that was completely different, not only the Yan family wouldn't allow it, but more importantly, Yuan Shao wouldn't allow it.
Without suing anyone, and not allowing anyone to watch the battle, the two walked to the empty martial arts training ground of Yan's Mansion and put on a posture.
"Wang Xu, no matter what the result of the competition is, you are not allowed to tell others."
Yan Liang stood in the middle of the field with a big sword, the big knife in his hand was cold, the momentum was terrifying, as majestic as the god of war, and he deserved to be the first fierce general in Hebei.
"Nope! Own family business, solve it at home! ”
Wang Xu's face was indifferent, if Yan Liang was like a wild knife out of the sheath at the moment, then he was a sword ready to strike, although it was not so dazzling, but it could make people feel that restrained murderous aura.
"Good!"
Yan Liang's eyes gradually narrowed, the long knife slashed a semicircle on the ground, and the martial artist's momentum rose rapidly, originally he thought that this battle would be easy, but at this moment, when he really stood with Wang Xu, he felt a kind of danger, it was the martial artist's intuition.
Wang Xu's face was calm, holding a iron spear tightly, the barrel of the gun was clamped under his armpit, and the tip of the gun was pointed at the ground!
Although this spear is not as easy as his dragon lance, it is also a fine product.
"Let's shoot!" Yan Liang took the lead in snorting coldly: "I have heard for a long time that you are both civil and military, but today I want to see how powerful you are!" ”
"Can't you try it?" Wang Xu looked at him calmly.
"Still not yet?" Yan Liang couldn't bear the idea of teaching him a lesson at the moment.
"Let you attack first!" Wang Xu shook his head.
"What a big breath!"
Yan Liang was furious, he couldn't control his violent temper anymore, and with a slash of the big knife, his strong body rose vertically, bringing up the momentum of the wind, and the big knife slashed down wildly, as if he had the power of ten thousand jun, and he was really as brave as the god of war.
"Good strength!"
Wang Xu was disdainful in his mouth, but he was not slow in his hand, the tip of the spear was flying, and he rushed forward, bringing up a burst of afterimages, not only avoiding Yan Liang's knife momentum, but the spear was like a thunder snake coiling, and went straight to his waist trickily.
"Bang!"
Yan Liang turned in the air, and the big knife turned into a sharpening, colliding with the barrel of the gun.
In an instant, the wind and dust in the field were splashed, and the momentum was terrifying...... (To be continued......)
