Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 364 Empty Gloves White Wolf

Lu Bu regards Lu Lingqi as the apple of his eye. When he first wanted to marry Yuan Shu, he hesitated for a long time, but now he heard that Yuan Xi was playing against his daughter and refused to give him the title of wife. How could he not be angry?
Lu Bu's face was gloomy, "So you are your purpose!"

"You want to cheat my daughter away?"

He clenched his casserole-sized fist suddenly, bursting out with murderous aura, causing Yuan Xi, who had been tortured by masters one after another in recent days, to have a cardiac arrest, subconsciously wanting to hold down the handle of the knife.

Ju Shou's face remained unchanged, he laughed and said, "Marquis Wen, let me finish my sentence."

Lu Bu glanced at Fang Tian's painted halberd beside him. As long as he wanted to, he could make Ju Shou and Yuan Xi decapitate with just one hand.

But the other party didn't show any fear, and dared to say such things in front of him, which showed that he didn't want to deceive himself, so he snorted coldly: "Then I'll listen, what excuses do you have!"

"If you can't justify yourself, you are only afraid of the two of you today, don't even think about getting out of this tent!"

Ju Shou smiled and said: "Dare to ask Marquis Wen, how many people can you trust completely now?"

After hearing this, Lu Bu showed embarrassment on his face. To be serious, there is really no such thing!
Seeing this, Ju Shou said: "Marquis Wen has been framed and deceived several times, and it is reasonable to have suspicions, but when the two parties join forces, it is most taboo to be suspicious of each other."

"Now if Marquis Wen doesn't trust Young Master, Young Master is also afraid that Marquis Wen will turn his back on what he says. The two sides are suspicious of each other. How can they achieve their goals when they are surrounded by powerful enemies?"

This was indeed the case in Lü Bu's heart, and he also had some self-knowledge. He had betrayed the Lord twice, and his reputation couldn't be worse. It was impossible for Yuan Xi not to take precautions against him.

Ju Shou said: "If the two sides want long-term cooperation and mutual trust, they must first do something to prove each other, but most of these things will take a long time, but it is obviously too late now."

"Of the remaining options, the fastest way is naturally to marry the two families."

"Other than that, can Marquis Wen think of any good solutions?"

Seeing that Lu Bu was deep in thought and silent, Yuan Xi also said, "Mr. Wen should understand that everything I do to Marquis Wen is to help Marquis Wen achieve success, and I have no intention of harming each other."

"Now the method to prove my sincerity is the most effective method to tie the two families together through the marriage law."

"If I don't bear the name of the Yuan family, it's not impossible to recognize Marquis Wen as a foster father, but if I really want to do this, Ben Chugong will definitely suspect that I have different intentions."

Lu Bu thought to himself, could it be that the marriage between the two parties won't be suspected by Yuan Shao?
But he absolutely cannot accept Lu Lingqi as a concubine!

He slapped the table violently, "No matter what you say, I won't agree with it!"

"If my daughter becomes the main wife, I can still consider it, but it is absolutely impossible to make her a concubine!"

Ju Shou looked at Yuan Xi, Yuan Xi understood, and said: "Marquis Wen calm down, please listen to me."

"If I divorce my wife, I will lose my trust in the world. If I really do, I will definitely be notorious and affect Qianjin's reputation."

"But I can guarantee that the girl will marry and have the highest treatment under a full-time wife."

Lu Bu thought about it, he really wanted to be like what Yuan Xi said, if Yuan Xi's wife died, Lu Lingqi would be able to take the position of wife, and the premise was that Yuan Xi was telling the truth.

Ju Shou saw that Lu Bu believed a little bit on the surface, and Xindao really betrayed others, and instead paid more attention to reputation, but in fact Yuan Xi's words had some loopholes.

If Yuan Xi was really determined to divorce his wife, all he had to do was give the other party a bad name, or make him take the initiative to reconcile.

Lu Bu could believe Yuan Xi's words, maybe it has something to do with his character?

Yuan Xi said again: "Even if I can't give Marquis Wen the rightful wife, but compared to Marquis Wen becoming someone else's wife, I can give Marquis Wen something that no one else can give."

After hearing this, Lu Bu sneered and said, "This is such a mouthful, but after all, what else can you give me?"

Yuan Xi said indifferently: "I can pass on my heir to the Lu family to inherit the incense."

Lu Bu had never thought of such a proposal, so he couldn't help being stunned.

Because the infant mortality rate in this world is extremely high, not to mention the common people, even many aristocratic families do not have male heirs to inherit the family business. This is the problem that Lu Bu is facing now.

In order to continue the incense, the head of the family who has no heirs either adopts from relatives and asks to adopt a son.

All of Lu Bu's relatives died, but he was not very reconciled to asking him to adopt a son, but he is not too young now, if this continues, the Lu family will really have no successors.

Of course, Lu Lingqi is also of the blood of the Lu family. If she has a child to inherit the Lu family business, it is naturally the best choice, but children are extremely precious to the aristocratic family, and they will not be easily adopted by others. Lu Bu married Yuan Shu at the beginning. He never thought of making such a request to the other party.

Yuan Xi's promise at this time was quite attractive to Lu Bu. After hesitating for a long time, he finally said, "Who can explain this clearly?"

"Let's not say that it's not always possible to have a boy or a girl. Even if a boy is born, if my daughter becomes the main wife in the future and wants to inherit the Yuan family's business, how can I let her give up the child?"

Yuan Xi smiled and said, "Regarding this, Marquis Wen can rest assured, I can make a promise."

"In the future, if my daughter and I have an heir, it will be up to Marquis Wen and the girl to decide whether it belongs to that family."

"Even if there is no male male, at worst, I will let another concubine concubine Ji have another one, and adopt him to the Lu family, how about it?"

Mr. Jushou Xindao had a good plan, and what he said was high-sounding, but it was actually a chicken thief.

If it was really a concubine who gave birth to a child, he would not be eligible to inherit Yuan Xi's family property. If he was adopted by Lu Bu and became the head of the Lu family, he would inherit the family property and title together, which can be said to be a big profit.

Lu Bu usually didn't think much about these twists and turns, but now, after hearing it at first glance, he felt that being an heir for nothing seemed to be taking advantage of it?
More importantly, it was too difficult for Lu Bu to find a good family for Lu Lingqi.

In this troubled world, only princes are able to protect their families. Other ordinary nobles, and even poor generals like Lu Bu, cannot help themselves and will die at any time.

As long as the protagonist opens his mouth, their heads will fall to the ground.

When the head of the family dies, the fate of his family members must be extremely miserable. Cao Cao killed Bian Rang and took his wife, which shocked the gentry all over the world.

When the princes of one side disregarded the face of the gentry and started killing, the gentry had no power to resist!

This is why Lu Bu was so persistent in marrying Yuan Shu at the beginning. After all, in his opinion, only marrying into a family like the Yuan family can protect Lu Lingqi's life.

Right now, Yuan Shu and himself are torn apart, and when Lu Bu was having a headache about Lu Lingqi's marriage, Yuan Xi dozed off to deliver a pillow, giving Lu Bu an unexpected choice.

Lu Bu thought about it, Yuan Xi was able to protect the safety of his family regardless of his status or ability, and there were only a handful of people in the world who were more capable of protecting Lu Lingqi than him.

Other than being wronged by Lu Lingqi for not being a regular wife, he really couldn't think of a better choice at the moment!
Not only did Yuan Xi come from a wealthy family, but he also proved to have a good martial arts strategy at a young age, and as the governor of a state, he successively defeated powerful enemies that even Lu Bu dared not speak lightly.

It can be said that Yuan Xi is already a leader among his peers, leaving other young scholars far behind, and his future achievements are even more limitless.

Lu Bu's heart was already faintly moved, but he still felt that marrying Lu Lingqi off like this was too hasty, so he said immediately: "Could it be that you just cheated my daughter out of nothing?"

Yuan Xi understood, smiled and said: "In order to marry the girl, of course I have to show my sincerity."

"After Lai and Marquis Wen joined forces to conquer Bingzhou, they all surrendered to Marquis Wen."

"The Gongsun family of Liaodong and Wuhuan Shanyu Tadun are entrenched. If they can be eliminated, half of Youzhou can also be handed over to Marquis Wen."

"After welcoming the emperor, the two sides attacked Yuan Shu and divided his territory equally."

"How about the above three as a dowry gift?"

Ju Shou thought to himself that his son is really thick-skinned, isn't this clearly a white wolf with empty gloves.

Jizhou is now attacking the Black Mountain Army. It is not yet known how much territory will be left in Bingzhou after the emperor welcomes the emperor here.

Yuan Shu is at the height of his power, discussing to carve up his territory now?

Finally, let’s not talk about how hard it is to fight in Liaodong. That place is different from the fertile soil in the west of Youzhou now. .

You really dare to say it.

Lv Bu hesitated rarely, Yuan Xi had already shown enough sincerity, although it was possible that the previous wealth and food were all paving the way for this, but after Yuan Xi's real purpose was revealed, Lv Bu didn't feel much disgusted.

Without him, those who survive in this chaotic world and do not know how to plan cannot protect themselves and their families.

It can be said that the more thoughtful Yuan Xi is, the more likely he will go to the end. In contrast, Lu Bu will not let his daughter marry a simple-minded martial artist who is at the mercy of others.

How does this sound, as if talking about yourself?

Seeing Yuan Xi's confidence, Lu Bu thought to himself that this ferocious tiger is indeed superior to his peers in terms of courage and brains among the younger generation.

He said, "Let me think about it."

While Yuan Xi was discussing with Lu Bu, a tragic battle was erupting at the pass in the middle of Heishan hundreds of miles to the north.

Yuan Shang led troops to invade Heishan, Zhang Yan sent a large army to resist, and the two sides fought together on the mountain road, on the hillside, and even in the valley.

The terrain of Montenegro is complicated and the mountain roads are narrow, which is not suitable for large-scale cavalry conflicts. Therefore, both sides of the battle are mainly infantry.

This made the generals who were used to leading the fine cavalry quite uncomfortable, because they dismounted and fought on foot, and the heavy armor prevented them from giving full play to the strengths of the generals as leaders.

Wen Chou held the big axe, wiped the blood from his face, and said to Zhang Yun beside him, "His grandma, what is the difference between us and pawns now!"

He was originally a strong type, with a fat body, and it took a lot of effort to walk than the agile Zhang Yun. After cutting down a few people, he felt that his strength was passing away quickly, so he had to stand back and rest, which made him quite aggrieved.
