Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 18

After hearing this, Yuan Xi drank the half bowl of porridge left in the bowl in front of him, got up and said, "You two take it easy, I'll go there first."

"Mr. Gongren can pack his luggage at any time, and I will ask Brother Qu to take someone to take Mr. to Hanoi."

The two got up to send Yuan Xi out, then sat down again.

Seeing that Yuan Xi had gone far away, Dong Zhao thought about it, and said to Qu Yi, "Dezhou, do you think the young master really cares about the Han Dynasty?"

Ju Yi drank his head sullenly, and said indifferently: "I am a rough man, I only know how to fight, and using your brains is what your counselors have to do."

Dong Zhao thought to himself, I just didn't understand, so I asked you.

Yuan Xi, on the surface, imitated Liu Yu, and lived a simple life on weekdays, but Liu Yu may not be really simple.

At that time, Liu Yusu was famous for his simple life, and he was praised for wearing coarse clothes on weekdays.

But Liu Yu also has another side. On the contrary, her concubines are all gorgeously dressed, so some people say that their appearance is different.

But Dong Zhao didn't really care about these things. Most of the famous people in the world are romantic, and most of them are for the sake of achieving certain goals and for others to see. There is nothing wrong with it.

There is no protagonist who is pure and simple, otherwise he would not be able to achieve that position.

In the final analysis, Liu Yu's biggest problem was his lack of ability, and he lost the battle, which resulted in the death of a large number of his subordinates.

In troubled times, incompetent good old people are not welcome, this is synonymous with being mermaid.

And the protagonist Dong Zhao wants to attach himself to is the one who has the ability to be a hero. In this troubled world, he can keep the people around him safe and go to the end.

As for whether the other party really wants to revive the Han Dynasty, it is not the most important thing.

Dong Zhao couldn't see through Yuan Xi.

He felt that Yuan Xi's personality was actually very complicated, and he was definitely not what he appeared before.

But this is also a kind of trait, being able to pretend.

Even if it is pretending, but he has the skill of controlling his subordinates, can win battles, is good at accepting the suggestions of his subordinates, and can treat the people kindly, and has the name of benevolence and righteousness. This is already better than many governors of the state!
Yuan Xi was walking in the yard, thinking about Dong Zhao Quyi.

He still can't get the complete loyalty of the two of them, all because his own strength is too weak now.

Although this world pays attention to reputation, after all, good birds choose trees to live in. Many famous ministers and generals in later generations have also changed masters. People like Zhuge Liang who stick to one end are extremely rare.

If the lord is incompetent, the courtiers will be exhausted to death, and the loyalty of the courtiers will not be gained.

Benevolence and righteousness do not mean incompetence, benevolent and righteous people can kill decisively, and use unscrupulous means when necessary.

Some people understand this point from the very beginning, and some people will realize this truth only after suffering countless losses.

What Yuan Xi can do now is to keep winning in this troubled world, so that more talents can attach to him.

He followed the young maid all the way to the wooden house, waved her away, and knocked twice on the door.

There was a response from the room, Yuan Xi opened the door and walked in.

Seeing the woman he brought back yesterday was kneeling on the couch, bowing her head and saluting to him, he asked, "Is the lady feeling better?"

The woman bowed her head and said: "It's much better, thank you for saving my life, Mr. Lang."

Yuan Xi responded: "Girl, you don't need to be too polite. Instead, I want to thank you for saving my life yesterday."

"If you hadn't helped me stab the Hun chief, I'm afraid I would have died."

The woman bowed her head and said: "My concubine is terrified. Your lord saved hundreds of women from danger. His words of punishing the Han offenders are deafening. He is indeed a hero in the world."

Yuan Xi was surprised and said: "A girl who speaks like this must have a family background, may I ask where she came from?"

The woman's body shook, she almost revealed her secrets unexpectedly!
She had something on her mind, she didn't dare to reveal the history, she just covered it up: "The concubine was originally a servant girl of the Luoyang official family, she listened to the master's words, and naturally learned a few words, she dared not use the ax in front of the general."

Yuan Xi thought to himself that this is interesting, but at that time the gentry were more arty, and many famous gentry, including maidservants and maids at home, had their own strengths, either they were proficient in rhythm, or they were proficient in writing, and they didn't care about it at the moment.

Seeing that the woman was still bowing her head, he said: "Young lady, you don't need to be polite, you can raise your head."

The woman still bowed her head and said: "I am ugly, I am afraid that I will frighten the gentleman."

Yuan Xi laughed and said: "Young lady is my life-saving grace, why should I be frightened, don't worry about it."

When the woman saw it, she raised her head hesitantly.

Seeing that her face was covered with black and red marks, Yuan Xi tried her best to put on a crooked mouth and squinted eyes, and felt a little amused, "Don't worry, girl, I have no other intentions. When the girl fell unconscious under the car yesterday, it was me The one who brought the girl back to the house."

The woman was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and immediately understood, her face turned red.

Yuan Xi made it clear that she was injured yesterday and fell into a coma. After the coma, her face was normal, but now she pretended to be crooked, so it was meaningless.

She stopped winking, and said in a low voice: "I was disfigured when I was young, and I was afraid of scaring the general, so I did this, and I ask the general to forgive me."

After Yuan Xi saw that he no longer concealed it, although the marks on his face were mottled, his facial features were extremely correct.

If this woman didn't have a large birthmark on her face, she should be extremely beautiful. Even if she had a birthmark, she would still be extremely charming.

It fell into the hands of the Huns, and fortune and misfortune were unpredictable. No wonder the facial features were distorted. From this point of view, this woman is also an intelligent and insightful person.

His heart moved, "How did the girl be taken away by the Huns?"

The woman hesitated for a moment, then said: "The concubine lives in the master's house in Luoyang, and she gave birth to a servant girl for the family. Her husband died early and the widow lived there. When the Xiongnu went south to make trouble, the concubine was kidnapped along with hundreds of Han women. It has been several months now."

"If it wasn't for the general to rescue me, I would have been in a desperate situation. I don't know if I am alive or dead. I am grateful for the kindness of the rescue."

What she said was true and false, Yuan Xi also sighed after hearing it: "The Han family is weak and cannot protect the people, it is not the fault of the people."

When the woman heard this, she raised her head in surprise. She never thought that such words could be uttered by a child of an aristocratic family!

Only now did she have the opportunity to look at Yuan Xi's face carefully. He had square eyes and a clear expression. If he didn't have a single flaw, he could be considered a handsome man.

But there is a huge problem.

Almost no beard.

Adult men in this world consider beards to be beautiful. All so-called handsome men must have a big beard, but there are also two kinds of people who don't have beards.

One is a eunuch, and the other is a man who is not born with a beard, the so-called male and female appearance.

Yuan Xi saw the other party's gaze resting on his chin, and immediately understood, and said with a wry smile: "I hardly have much beard, and my father doesn't like it very much either."

The third younger brother Yuan Shang is the most favored, because he has a bushy beard, which is called handsome.

He said: "My name is Yuan Xi, my style name is Xianyi, the second son of Jizhou Mu."

When the woman heard this, her heart was shaken, and she couldn't help saying: "Concubine Zhaoji... surname..."

She suddenly realized, her thoughts changed sharply, and she quickly changed her words, "My surname is Wu."

"Wu Zhao."

　Because of the fever for half a month and the cough that didn't stop for half a month, it became more and more severe, so I went to the hospital for a check-up for a day.

　　The doctor gave me good news and bad news.

　　The good news is there is no white lung.

　　The bad news is that I should have had pneumonia, and now I have upper and lower respiratory problems, and I have taken a lot of medicine. ~
