Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 313 Fate is Impermanent
Yuan Xi opened his eyes early in the morning and put his arms around Zhen Mi who was still sleeping soundly in his arms. The white fish belly outside the window seeped into the screen, and faint light came in.

Yuan Xi lightly brushed Zhen Mi's dark cloud-like hair, thinking of her performance last night, she thought that although Zhen Mi didn't say anything, she could clearly see that she still longed for the child, obviously Stimulated by Mrs. Wu.

But this is also normal, after all, everyone likes their own children the most.

Speaking of which, in the history of later generations, after Yuan Xi died, Zhen Mi was accepted by Cao Pi, and gave birth to Cao Rui and Princess Dongxiang. Cao Rui's three sons died young, and Princess Dongxiang did not appear in the records later. It can be said that there may be no descendants up.

The irony is that after Yuan Xi was killed at that time, he left behind Yuan Qian, the son of his first wife, Wu Shi, who was adopted and protected by Zhen Mi. One survived.

Until the Tang Dynasty, the seventh grandson of Yuan Xi was Yuan Tiangang who wrote the picture of pushing the back, and his family, the Dongguang Yuan family, also became a famous family.

In contrast, the bloodlines of later generations Cao Pi and Zhen Mi died out early.

Yuan Xi thought about what happened in different time and space, and thought that sometimes fate is so wonderful. In the historical torrent of time, the fate of a person, a family, and even an emperor is actually so insignificant.

No matter how vigorous things they have done, after they die, they will become a few bursting bubbles on the top of the waves, a few lines of black and cold words on the bamboo slips, and the indistinguishable truth from falsehood in the mouths of traffickers.

Yuan Xi sat up slowly, Zhen Mi's white jade-like fragrant shoulders leaked out, Yuan Xi pulled the quilt over, covered her lightly, and then got up and went to the ground.

He walked to the window, opened it a little, and the breeze blew in. Although the weather had become warmer at this time, the coldness brought by it still gave Yuan Xi goosebumps.

There is still a little light in the study. This is Cai Zhaoji waking up early in the morning to revise the classics. A Xiang's cry came from Mrs. Wu's room, and a little smoke was already coming out of the kitchen in a corner. Cao Xian and Cao Hua made fun of each other and complained inside. Bickering.

After breakfast, he will lead a group of subordinates on the journey to attack Montenegro.

Yuan Xi took a deep breath, lived a new life, the future was uncertain, he could only do his best, as long as he was worthy of those who cared about him.

As for the struggle for hegemony in the world, no one can guarantee that he will be the final winner, but Yuan Xi believes that even without himself, there will still be people who will continue to explore ways to make China a better place in the subsequent dynasty changes.

No one is the savior. Strictly speaking, it is possible for one person to change the torrent of history, but if there is no successor, the torrent will change direction and even go against the current.

Only when everyone works hard and goes through a long time can we reach the ideal shore
Those who can completely save the common people will ultimately have to rely on the people themselves.

As for Yuan Xi, he knew that what he could do was to make a small effort to let the whole world understand this truth as soon as possible.

That's it.

With a ding, a stray arrow hit the iron armor on Yu Jin's chest and was ejected.

He looked at the top of Puyang City, the enemy army was still shooting arrows, and the sky was getting dark, and he felt a little anxious.

He took the soldiers under his command as the vanguard and had been attacking the city continuously for half a month, but he was still unable to attack for a long time.

This Miao Zhang Chao is too difficult to fight!

Yu Jin knew in his heart that on the one hand, it was difficult to fortify the city and attack the city, and on the other hand, there was also the reason that the Yanzhou gentry were extremely resistant to Cao Cao.

There are many people in Yanzhou who are alienated from Cao Cao, and they are afraid of slaughtering the city after they capture the city, and the soldiers and people in the city are even more desperate to defend.

Just when Yu Jin was hesitating whether to launch the last assault, the sound of Ming Jin retreating came from the camp behind him. Yu Jin was relieved and led the troops back slowly.

It's like banning back to the camp. All the generals have returned to their tents and reported to the leader Cao Ren.

After Deng told everyone about today's situation one by one, Cao Ren's face was also a bit unsightly. Cao Chunyu led the army and fought for a whole day, except for killing and injuring hundreds of people, and did nothing.

Yu Jin did his best, but the key point was that the newly formed cavalry army led by Cao Chun did not play a big role in the siege battle, so there was no chance of training troops.

Cao Ren thought for a while, and then sent a letter to Juancheng, saying that Puyang was difficult to get off.

A few days later, Cao Cao received a letter and called everyone to discuss. Some of the counselors suggested increasing troops, while others suggested to wait and see what happened.

Xun You said: "The enemy is gaining momentum right now. Even if they increase their troops and defeat them, it will be a disastrous victory, and the loss is not small."

"Chen Liu will be defeated sooner or later. Anyway, he just needs to surround him and wait until the city runs out of food and morale collapses."

"There are two things that need to be guarded against right now. The first is whether Jizhou will send reinforcements."

"I heard that Zang Hong knelt in front of Yuan Benchu's mansion every day in Jizhou to ask for help."

Hearing the word Zang Hong, Cheng Yu sneered and said, "Gongda doesn't need to worry, he won't be successful."

"If it takes a while longer, he should give up."

Cheng Yu knew that Yuan Shang was in charge of military affairs in Jizhou, and he had already opened up Yuan Shang's joints and sent the five stones there. As long as Yuan Shang said a few words in Yuan Shao's ear, Zang Hong could only return in vain.

Xiahou Dun said: "The best way right now is to encircle and not attack. Puyang will collapse within three months."

"As long as Chen Liu is defeated, we will have a way to enter Hanoi County."

"At that time, we must recharge our batteries and wipe out all the forces in Hanoi. If we spent too much force in Chenliu before, it will not be conducive to our future actions."

Everyone nodded, and Xun Yu said, "But it took so long to please the emperor, isn't it too late?"

Xun You said: "I know that Wen Ruo is in a hurry, but even if we get through the road to Hanoi now, we still have to face the forces of Li Jue, Guo Si and Baibo Bandits."

"Why don't you just sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, let them lose both sides in the fight, and we will wait for the opportunity to move?"

After hearing this, Cao Cao praised: "Gongda is right, now is indeed not the best time to enter Hanoi."

"What's the second thing Gongda worries about?"

Xun You said again: "The second thing you worry about is the marriage between Yuan Shu and Lu Bu."

When everyone heard this, their faces became serious. This matter has been spread, which put a lot of pressure on everyone.

Because if Yuan Shu and Lu Bu join forces, they will block Cao Cao's advance route in Hanoi.

If Cao Cao takes Henan Yin in the south of Hanoi, Yuan Shu in Yuzhou can wait for an opportunity to attack Cao Cao's hinterland in Yanzhou.

In this way, Cao Cao's work of catering to the emperor will become extremely difficult.

Cao Cao said decisively: "Think of a way to destroy Lu Bu and Yuan Shu's marriage."

After hearing this, Xun You smiled and said, "Would you like Mr. Ming to send a letter to Marquis Wen, asking Mr. Cao Ang to marry a girl from the Lu family?"

When Cao Cao heard this, he was immediately moved. If this is the case, he will have Lv Bu's help, so why not worry about the big things?
At this time, Cheng Yu said: "It is possible to try, but the possibility is not great."

"You know, Lu Bu's mastermind is Chen Gong, and he is determined to do this with Minggong."

Everyone's faces froze when they heard this. They had all heard about Cao Cao's parting ways with Chen Gong because he killed Lu Boshe's family.

This Cheng Yu is also too courageous, isn't this what pot is not opened and which pot is not lifted!

Cheng Yu also knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and hurriedly said: "If you want to destroy the marriage between the two families, there are other ways."

Cao Cao understood and left Chen Yu to talk alone.

Yuan Xi, who was thousands of miles away, would never have imagined that his desire to destroy Yuan Shu and Lu Bu's marriage would coincide with Cao Cao.

Now the two sides, who don't know each other, use their own means to achieve the same goal, working hard in tacit understanding.

Yuan Xi brought thousands of troops and horses, and after trekking for several days, he finally returned to the place where he made his fortune, Beixincheng.

Compared with when he came alone a few years ago, the counselors and generals he brought with him this time can be called luxurious.

Jushou, Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, Tian Yu, Yan Rou, each is a hero in his own right.

These people gathered together just to deal with the Black Mountain Army.

Yuan Xi has always believed that if he does not fight, it is enough. If he fights, he must beat the opponent to death with all his strength, and he will never hold back. That was the case when he sent all the generals to surround and beat Guan Yu.

He doesn't understand fair heads-up or something.

Outside the city gate, Xu You led a group of officials to greet Yuan Xi respectfully.

Yuan Xi jumped off the horse and held Xu You's hand. The two chatted and laughed happily. They couldn't tell at all that a few months ago, Yuan Xi ordered someone to behead Xu You's nephew and hang him on the wall.

After that, Xu You immediately sent his son's relatives who held important positions in Beixincheng back to Yecheng.

The reason why Xu You still dares to stand here now is that Yuan Xi has not yet caught his handle, and second is that Xu You must have someone behind him who made a guarantee, and there are reasons why he must stay here.

When Yuan Xi discussed using Beixincheng as a frontline stronghold to launch an attack on the Black Mountain Army, Ju Shou expressed his worries.

He believes that Xu You may interfere and affect Yuan Xi's plan to send troops.

Moreover, his nephew was killed by Yuan Xi, how could Xu You hold a grudge?
After hearing this, Yuan Xi smiled and said, "Wouldn't that be better?"

"He's acting like a monster right under his nose. I'm afraid he's going to die?"

"If he is a smart person, he will definitely do his best to avoid being found out by me."

Yuan Xi hoped that Xu You's thunder would explode as soon as possible, so as not to turn against him during the battle of Guandu.

But having said that, Xu You rebelled because Cao Cao could give him benefits. At this time, he betrayed himself and joined the Black Mountain Army. What can he get?
Even if Yuan Shang is behind him and wants to sabotage his attack on the Black Mountain Army, is it possible that Xu You can betray him and inform the Black Mountain Army?

Thinking of this, Yuan Xi sneered slightly. Even if Xu You had such an idea, it would be much more difficult than he imagined to run out of Beixin City to deliver the letter.

After hearing this, Ju Shou said, "Since the young master is so confident, the old man should be worrying too much."

"If he dares to obstruct the war, the old man has his own way."

After hearing this, Yuan Xi smiled and said, "In this way, Mr. Lao will be here."

You Jushou, the vengeful staring at Xu You, is afraid that Xu You would not dare to act rashly.
