Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1052 Reputation
After everyone sat down, they heard the news from Yuan Xi and learned that Sun Quan had accepted the canonization of the Han court and was now the King of Wu.

This naturally helped Cao Cao share the pressure of public opinion between the government and the public, because at the same time, Cao Cao also accepted the canonization of the Han court as King of Wei. This was much more valuable, and for a time he was unparalleled in the world.

In comparison, Sun Quan, the King of Wu, looks a bit like a clown. Jiangdong is now like this. No normal person has the nerve to claim the title of king, but Sun Quan did it. It can only be said that he urgently needs this title to win over people's hearts. .

Yuan Xi said jokingly, "So it is gratifying to say that Duke Wu has been promoted to King of Wu."

"But because I, a small state herdsman, conquered the capital, King Wu couldn't lose face, so he built a new capital in Nanchang."

"If Madam goes to Nanchang, King Wu will lose face, so Madam, why don't you come back to Shouchun with me?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Wu's face turned red and she quickly turned her head away. She was blocking so many people, why did you say it so directly?

Wu Jing felt anxious after hearing this. Wasn't this a naked attempt to take over Mrs. Wu?

He quickly said: "Yuan... Envoy!"

"Madam is the King of Wu...the biological mother. This kind of behavior can only lead to crazy revenge from the King of Wu!"

Both Madam Wu and Wu Jing were confused. Madam Wu asked doubtfully: "It is not safe to fight outside the city. Naturally, we should wait until the war ceases and then send her back to Quan'er. Isn't this natural?"

"Especially because the front-end time envoy also captured Cao Cao's wife and daughter, rumors about this are even more rampant."

"So now that you and Mrs. Xie are in the same room, there is no way to argue against it. I'm afraid that Mrs. Xie will be jealous of King Wu after she returns."

"In the past few years, there have been rumors all over the world that the most similar thing between Zhijun and Cao Cao is that he will include the family members of his captured enemies into his back house."

"I want to ask the general, you and Sun Quan are close, but the only reason you are close is that you are his uncle, right?"

After Mrs. Wu explained a few words, Yuan Xi just realized that the woman standing next to Mrs. Wu was Sun Quan's wife, Xie. He immediately said to Mrs. Wu and Wu Jing, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Before Yuan Xi could react, he asked doubtfully: "Which Mrs. Xie?"

"I'll ask Mrs. Xie to avoid it first!"

"But it's different here, and so are you..."

"And she is Sun Quan's wife. Why don't you send her away early and keep her until I enter the city?"

When Mrs. Wu heard that something was wrong, she quickly said: "Wait!"

"He now controls Jiangdong and has many powerful generals. You may not be able to be reused in Jiangdong where there are many families."

His face was full of bitterness, "The King of Wu has great ideas, and he will also vent his anger on the Wu family. Our family..."

Mrs. Wu said in a daze: "What kind of reputation?"

"I know Quan'er. He is not the kind of unreasonable person. You should know that if you send his wife back, he will accept your favor. Is there anything wrong?"

Yuan Xi said unconcernedly: "General, it's time to think about the future of the family."

"No, it's so wrong!" Yuan Xi said sadly: "You know Sun Quan, but you don't know my reputation in recent years."

Mrs. Wu and the other three were dumbfounded. Is it such an exaggeration?

Zhuge Liang on the side couldn't stand it anymore, so he coughed and said, "What you said is right."

"Although Shijun actually did not do such a thing, he could not wash himself away even if he jumped into the Yellow River."

"You are going to hurt her!"

Yuan Xi sighed and said: "Forget it, the matter is over. I will arrange carriages and horses tomorrow to send Mrs. Xie back to Yuzhang to reunite with King Wu. As for what King Wu thinks, I can't do anything."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xie quickly came up and knelt down to thank Yuan Xi. Yuan Xi waved his hand and sighed: "No need to thank me. There is a high probability that you will be made things difficult for you when you go back. Just be prepared in advance."

Seeing what Yuan Xi said so confidently, Mrs. Xie also murmured in her heart, thinking, "Isn't that right? Is Yuan Shijun's reputation really that bad?"
As a result, Yuan Xi's next words almost made Xie faint.

Yuan Xi turned to Mrs. Wu and said, "There is no point in you staying in Jiangdong. Come back to Jicheng with me. Since Cao Cao and Sun Quan have both been crowned kings, I am too far behind in terms of status and it seems unjustifiable."

"Besides, Qian'er and Xiang'er are looking forward to your return every day."

Wu Jing had already sensed that something was wrong. Xiang'er was Sun Shangxiang who was kept as a hostage. Who was Qian'er?
Wu Fu felt that her face was so hot that it was about to burn. She said angrily: "Why do you speak so directly? Do I still have the face to see others?"

Wu Jing and Xie, who were originally full of suspicion, finally understood. They were shocked and dizzy. No wonder the two people spoke in such familiar tones. After a long time, it turned out that something had happened to these two people!
Yuan Xi turned to Wu Jing and said, "Yes, I went to the city today with no intention of hiding it, just to tell you this matter."

"A few years ago, when Mrs. Wu was in the North, she and I fell in love and gave birth to a son, my second son Yuan Qian."

As soon as these words came out, Wu Jing and Xie were so shocked that they couldn't believe their ears.

Yuan Xi smiled and said: "Don't let you think, why should I come to greet Mrs. Wu in person?"

"Of course it's because I'm not going to hide it anymore. After I am granted the title of Duke and King, I will announce it to the world and appoint all the ladies. Mrs. Wu will only be under my original wife, the Zhen family." Mrs. Wu's face could no longer be shown, and she was ashamed. Then he said angrily: "Who cares!"

"I am the widow of the Sun family!"

Yuan Xi smiled and said: "No, Madam is already free. I want to see who in the world dares to criticize her!"

Wu Jing's mouth opened wide, and it took him a while to react, and he said blankly: "Is that so?"

Yuan Xi said: "That's it."

"In the future, I will certainly not leave Jiangdong to Sun Quan, but I will also leave it to Qian'er."

"And I have already discussed it with my first wife. If Madam nods in the future, Xiang'er will be the first wife of my eldest son Yuan Rui."

Wu Jing opened his eyes even more after hearing this. From these two sentences, he could hear Yuan Xi's attitude. This was the attitude towards the Wu family. Although it was for Mrs. Wu's face, these two relationships, You can let the Wu family take off directly!

Yuan Xi said, "Yes, the Wu family's power and connections in Jiangdong are as good as those of the Sun family."

"Now that I have given you the opportunity to stand on my side, you can think about it. Is it more beneficial to stand on Sun Quan's side, or on my side?"

"I know that the Sun family has offended many Jiangdong families. If you help me convince them all to join me, the Wu family will be my main contributor to winning Jiangdong in the future, and I will give corresponding rewards."

After Wu Jing heard this, he immediately bowed down without hesitation and said, "Jing represents the whole Wu family. He is the one who has done the best for you, and he has no backbiting!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Wu let out a long sigh. She had known that this day would come, but she did not expect that this day would come so quickly.

She originally thought that after returning to Jiangdong, she could try her best to reconcile the relationship between Yuan Xi and Sun Quan, but later she found that she had overestimated herself. It was impossible for two people with great ambitions to join forces.

So she was caught in the middle and was in a dilemma, which was extremely painful, because she couldn't live with her conscience no matter which side she helped, so she also understood that Yuan Xi came to take her back in person to solve her dilemma.

Nowadays, the disputes in the world are no longer something she can intervene in.

Thinking of this, her eyes turned red and she said, "Whatever happens in the world, just let you go, I'm tired too."

Yuan Xi held her hand and sighed: "I've made you tired, don't worry, no matter how hard we fight, I can still save King Wu's life in the end."

He said this as if he was sure that Sun Quan had failed, but everyone present took it for granted, because now Yuan Xi has the strength and qualifications to say this.

Although Zhuge Liang had guessed a hint of the inside story before, he didn't fully understand the twists and turns until now, thinking that this really looked like something his lord had done.

My lord is good at everything, but he is quite speechless when it comes to women. However, this single move can prevent the death and injury of thousands of soldiers. Should I praise the envoy, or should I advise him not to be so scary in his future actions?
Not to mention that Zhuge Liang shook his head repeatedly, Gan Ning who was eating melon by the side had to endure it extremely hard. He could hardly hold back his laughter. Sun Quan was so tyrannical that after a long time, his own mother was taken over by the enemy. You idiot? Aren't you mad?

Yuan Xi looked at the dumbfounded Xie and said, "When you meet Sun Quan, you can give him a message."

"The foundation of Jiangdong was only built by Sun Ce. Speaking of which, it has not even been passed down to one generation."

"The most capable people in the world live here. If Sun Quan wants to continue fighting with me, I will accompany him. But if he can't fight for a day, I can find him a fief and live out the rest of his life."

"But don't think about fighting for world hegemony. Of course, if he doesn't give up, you can risk your life, just give it a try!"

Hearing such domineering words, Mr. Xie's heart trembled, and he quickly lowered his head and said, "I will bring the envoy's words to you."

After Yuan Xi ordered people to take Mr. Xie down, he said to Wu Jing, "I have something very important to tell you next."

"On the one hand, you can help me convince the Jiangdong nobles. On the other hand, I have some thoughts about the Shanyue people."

"Jiangdong has always treated them as slaves. This is wrong. This approach must change."

"When I was in the Northland, I focused on organizing households to equalize the people and treat everyone equally. Now that I have occupied Wu County, I must implement this approach."

Wu Jing hesitated and said, "The Wu family is fine, but other families..."

Yuan Xi said: "I will repay them accordingly."

He turned to Zhuge Liang and Gan Ning, "You two, tell General Wu how to do it." He took Mrs. Wu's hand and said, "I haven't seen you for several years, Madam. I have a lot to say, let's go to the back hall."

The three of them watched silently as Mrs. Wu covered her face and was pulled away by Yuan Xi, relatively speechless.

Is this good?
Forget it, anything outrageous can happen to my lord, and people like me have long been used to it.

Yuan Xi half pulled, half dragged, and with the cooperation of Madam Wu who wanted to refuse but also welcomed, the two of them went all the way back to Madam Wu's bedroom. Madam Wu suppressed her shame and dismissed the dumbfounded maids, and then said angrily: "What's wrong with you? so!"

There was no one around, but Yuan Xi became serious. He bowed deeply to Mrs. Wu and said, "It was really my miscalculation to let Mrs. Wu return to Jiangdong, and she suffered."

"From now on, you can live in peace and contentment. I will be responsible for the killings in the world."

Mrs. Wu choked up and nodded slightly.
