Chapter 494: The Great Hall of Harmony and Family Deliberation (Second Update)
After all, it was Yuan Shaochu's second son.
The entire Yuan Family City shook.
Even Zhang Rang, who had just come out of retreat, rushed back from Ling Tianshan immediately after getting the news.
After all, Zhang Rang's purpose in coming to the north was not to establish any Jianghu forces, but to break into the interior of the Yuan family in the north and make internal responses for the Han to deal with the Yuan family in the future.
And getting close to Yuan Yongxi is undoubtedly also an opportunity.
It's a pity that Zhang Rang doesn't know what Yuan Yongxi's personality is, what he likes and what he hates.
And Zhang Rang is not good at pleasing people.
You can only see how you deal with it first, and then find a way to get close to the other party.
Zhang Rang knew that as long as he was close to Yuan Yongxi, he would have the opportunity to walk to the core of the Yuan family step by step.
As a result, as soon as he arrived in Yuanjiacheng, he got the announcement that he was going to convene everyone in the main hall today, and there was something important.
Everyone came to the top of the main hall, Yuan Tongxin sat on it, and sent someone to set up a seat on the side and leave it for Yuan Yongxi.
Everyone knows that the sudden convening of a meeting today must be related to the arrival of Yuan Yongxi.
Therefore, everyone waited in the main hall.
As a result, everyone waited for almost half an hour, but they didn't see Yuan Yongxi.
People in the rivers and lakes like Zhang Rang, and some generals naturally don't matter.
After all, they have a strong physique in their own right.
It's a pity that some civil servants can't do it.
After standing for half an hour, many people were already very tired.
As a result, at this time, Yuan Yongxi walked in with someone.
Because Feng Yunji is the strategist behind Yuan Yongxi, Feng Yunji has never shown up along the way, so Yuan Yongxi also did not bring Feng Yunji today.
With the belated arrival of Yuan Yongxi, Yuan Tongxin breathed a sigh of relief.
This second son of Yuan is really a little unreliable, the time has been notified a long time ago, everyone came in advance, for fear of being late, but he was half an hour late.
But after all, he is Yuan Shaochu's son, do you still dare to complain?
"Now that everyone is here, let's start the discussion. Before the discussion, I would like to welcome Yuan Yongxi, the second son of the King of Jizhou, who has just arrived in my Yuan Jiacheng. ”
Yuan Yongxi heard Yuan Tongxin introduce himself, and nodded to everyone in the hall, which was regarded as a salute.
Zhang Rang's brows couldn't help frowning.
Originally, he estimated that Yuan Shaochu was the overlord, and even if his son did not fully learn his domineering and ability, at least the tiger father had no dogs.
But I never expected that this Yuan Yongxi looked high.
And I arrived so late today, but I didn't feel guilty at all, and I looked like you were waiting for me.
Zhang Rang doesn't like such a difficult person to get along with.
Although there is indeed respect and humility in the rivers and lakes, this kind of respect and humility relies on strength, and it is undefeated.
is like Ao Yuntian at the beginning, he has no ability and has to be domineering in the rivers and lakes, then there is only one result.
Zhang Rang smiled coldly, and stood in place intending to listen carefully to what the second son of the king of Jizhou would say.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I came to Yuanjiacheng in Hedong County this time for two things. ”
Yuan Yongxi sat on the chair, slowly raised his hand, and stretched out two fingers.
"The first thing is that in previous years, the amount of offerings that Yuan Jiacheng handed over to the sect family has always been insufficient. At the beginning, because there was a sword worship villa. But now, Baijian Villa is no longer there. Well, the number of offerings this year ......"
Yuan Tongxin immediately nodded and said, "Second son, don't worry, Yuan Jiacheng feels that this year is enough." ”
"Hmph!" Yuan Yongxi snorted coldly, "Is it enough to count? This year, we have to hand over three times the original amount!"
Upon hearing this, many people in the hall were shocked.
Yuan Tongxin's face changed even more.
In previous years, Yuan Jiacheng's income was not good enough, so the offerings handed in were always insufficient, and the Zong family could also understand.
After all, Hedong County borders Dahan, and the environment of rivers and lakes is complicated.
Even the rulers of many counties in Hedong County are wall-headed grass, in such an environment, it is good that Yuanjiacheng can develop, and the Zong family does not expect Yuanjiacheng to expand its territory.
But now, as soon as Yuan Yongxi opened his mouth, he wanted to triple that of previous years.
Although this year, because of the destruction of the Ling Tian Sword Sect and the merger of the Bai family's property, Yuan Jiacheng made a lot of money in gold and silver, but even so, taking out three times the offering, basically Yuan Jiacheng's annual income has gone by two-thirds.
You must know that now that the Ling Tian Sword Sect has been destroyed and the Huashan Sect's Sword Hall has also been withdrawn, it is the time when Yuan Jiacheng can develop vigorously.
However, without the support of money and cultivation resources at this time, how could Yuan Jiacheng still develop and grow?
However, Yuan Yongxi didn't seem to see the dissatisfied expressions on everyone's faces.
"The second thing, I came to the west this time not only to collect the offerings of the thirteen branches in the west, but also to unite the Xiongnu in the state. Therefore, it is necessary for Yuan Jiacheng to make peace with the Xiongnu in the annexed state......"
Before Yuan Yongxi's words were finished, Yuan Qingmei's face changed.
This is not a pageant to send over, but a kiss.
And affinity and pro.
and married.
Since he wants to make peace, even if the identity of the woman Yuan Jiacheng wants to come out is not as good as the leader of the Xiongnu in Bingzhou, her status cannot be too bad.
"I have long heard that Miss Yuan Qingmei, the daughter of the city lord, is a virtuous lady who understands etiquette. If you can go and kiss, it will naturally be better. ”
Hearing this, many people's faces changed.
If you want to make a triple offering, it will already be a lion's mouth.
As a result, now it is even more necessary to let the future city lord of Yuan Jiacheng go to make peace.
Is this Yuan Yongxi crazy?
Zhang Rang also frowned, looked at Yuan Yongxi, who looked proud, and didn't care at all about the people who started to talk below, and shook his head.
Originally, Zhang Rang felt that since the other party was Yuan Shaochu's son, the tiger father had no dog, and Yuan Yongxi must also be a character.
Even, Zhang Rang planned to go to the power core of the Yuan family in the north by strengthening Yuan Yongxi.
But now it seems that this person can't be counted on.
Moreover, now it is not only a matter of not being able to count on it, but also a more important issue is once Yuan Yongxi's request is granted.
It's okay to triple the offering, after all, it was Yuan Jiacheng who contributed money and resources.
At that time, Yuan Jiacheng will not be able to develop, and his Zhan Yunmen can just take the opportunity to grow.
But Yuan Qingmei is the one who supports her own position.
It can be said that after Yuan Qingmei takes the throne in the future, the entire Hedong County will have the final say.
But if Yuan Qingmei leaves, it is conceivable that in the end, she will inevitably be alienated from Yuan Jiacheng's forces, and may even be isolated by the entire northern forces.
Zhang Rang's purpose in coming to the north was to break into the Yuan family.
Therefore, such a thing as Yuan Qingmei's departure must not be allowed to happen.
"Yuan Gongzi, these two things, I'm afraid ......" Yuan Tongxin looked embarrassed.
"What's the matter? Isn't what I said good in Hedong County?" As Yuan Yongxi burst into a loud shout, everyone lowered their heads, and Yuan Tongxin didn't dare to continue to speak.
There was an instant silence in the hall.
But at this moment, someone smiled coldly, "This guy doesn't think he can speak well in Hedong County, right?"
