Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 445
The second day arrived.

God admired Yuan Xi's face for a long time. It was still sunny in the morning, but he turned his face later.

Lu Lingqi, who was inside the sedan chair, was almost doused by the rain from all over the world. The top of the sedan chair got wet first, and then began to seep. Sun Li hurriedly directed everyone to carry the sedan chair into the hall first, and then they rushed to rescue the piled land. Tall dowry chests.

Lu Lingqi heard the commotion outside and swayed in the sedan chair aggrievedly. The whole sedan chair was on the verge of falling, scaring the maidservants beside her.

Seeing Yuan Xi at the side, he held back his laughter and said in a low voice, "Be patient for now, it will be fine in a while."

Lu Lingqi said sullenly: "It's also boring."

Yuan Xi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He found that Lu Lingqi didn't have much desire for marriage, and her relationship with him was like a partner fighting side by side.

But that seems pretty good too?

The guests came one after another. This time Yuan Xi was not married to a regular wife, so the etiquette system was slightly lower. The visits of the aristocratic families to give gifts were not as ostentatious as last time. The family has sent people over.

After a lot of tossing, the two of them finished their salute, the guests dispersed, and Yuan Xi led Lu Lingqi into the bridal chamber on the top of the small building.

Under Yuan Xi's familiar guidance, the two drank a cup of wine, cut their hair and tied it together, and it was considered a ceremony.

Yuan Xi saw Lu Lingqi lying on the window sill, looking into the distance, looking sullen, and said with a smile, "Why, so wronged?"

Lu Lingqi groaned and said, "Tiankui is here, since I came to Yecheng, everything has not gone well."

Yuan Xi laughed and hugged Lu Lingqi in his arms. The two of them looked side by side at the lights below Yecheng, "The future will last forever."

"Besides, it will take a long time to leave Yecheng this time, and we won't come back again. It's good to have a look at the night scene together tonight."

Lu Lingqi felt that Yuan Xi's hands were starting to be dishonest, her face became hot, and she said angrily, "I want to teach you a lesson tonight, so that you can escape."

Yuan Xi was very happy, who taught whom?
He said, "Tomorrow we will set off for Youzhou."

"Do you want to go back to Jicheng first, or Beixincheng?"

Lu Lingqi hesitated for a moment, "According to the etiquette, I should go to see the old woman first, but I haven't gotten used to it yet, why don't I go back to Beixin City to pay homage to the tomb of the master?"

Yuan Xi listened, nodded and said: "Alright, let's go together."

Lu Lingqi whispered: "You don't have to do this, I heard that Madam Zhen is pregnant, why don't you go back and have a look?"

Yuan Xi sighed: "It's impossible to say that I don't want to, but even if I go back, I can't help much."

"What's more, the Heishan Passage has been opened up thickly. Beixin City's position in Zhuo County is becoming more and more important, and the defense needs to be adjusted accordingly. I will go and have a look before I can rest assured."

"Let's pay homage to Dezhou together, and then go back to Jicheng."

Lu Lingqi said softly: "Am I being capricious?"

"Actually, I'm quite unwilling to be your concubine."

Yuan Xi sighed: "I know, who would be willing to divide people into high and low?"

"Cai Zhaoji, who followed me before, has never nominated this matter. I know she is also a proud person, so she simply doesn't want any title."

Lu Lingqi blinked and said, "Cai Zhonglang's daughter?"

"Husband is really amazing. How did all these girls get tricked?"

"Gongsun Zan's widow, you dare to attack, even I admire your courage."

Yuan Xi was sweating profusely, thinking that he couldn't clean up Madam Hou's matter, the key point was that he didn't do anything.

But Sun Jian's widow did exist, and Yuan Xi felt chills down his back when he thought that he was stepping on this landmine that would explode at any moment.

Lu Lingqi sighed: "There is no woman in the world who doesn't value fame, I'm afraid she just doesn't want to embarrass her husband."

Yuan Xi said in a deep voice: "I know, so in the future, if I become a duke and a king, I will naturally be able to win the title of wife for you."

Lu Lingqi was surprised and said: "Feng Wang?"

"There are not many kings with different surnames in the Han Dynasty since Gaozu, right?"

Yuan Xi said with a smile: "One has to dare to think, in this world, once you have reached my step, you can no longer retreat."

"Even if I want to retreat, others will not let me go, so I can only move forward."

After hearing this, Lu Lingqi smiled and said, "This sounds very interesting."

Yuan Xiqi said: "Aren't you afraid?"

"If it fails, we will all die."

Lu Lingqi said, "I have been on the battlefield and seen life and death."

"I am Marquis Wen's daughter!"

She suddenly lowered her voice, "I'm afraid that if there is a big change on Father's side, it will be very dangerous, right?"

"Father, is it because of this that I entrusted me to you?"

Yuan Xi was silent, Lu Lingqi was very smart, she had already seen that the general Lu Bu was so easy to do, how many generals in the past have died well?
He said in a deep voice: "Things may not be that bad. I'm already prepared to retreat. As long as Marquis Wen does what he does, even if something happens, his life should be safe."

Lu Lingqi leaned into Yuan Xi's arms, "I'm curious, did you trick other girls in this way?"

Yuan Xi thought to himself that the other women around him belonged to dead fathers.

He thought for a while and said, "That would be a long story."

"At the beginning, I was besieged in Beixincheng. At that time, Zilong was still my enemy. At the same time, the Southern Huns went north from Montenegro"

The two were talking in a low voice, and before they knew it, the moon was in the middle of the sky, drawing a circular arc in the night sky, pulling up the sun, and following the crowing of the rooster, the dawn of the morning filled Yecheng again and shone into the small city. Louhong window.

Yuan Xi opened his eyes and found that Lu Lingqi was still lying in his arms. The two of them talked in the middle of the night, and fell asleep cuddling by the window without knowing it.

He looked at Lu Lingqi's rosy cheeks, stretched out his hand to scrape the bridge of her straight nose, and smiled.

A new day begins, and a new journey begins.

Although busy and busy, he has become one of the trendsetters in the trend of the world. No matter what the final result is, he believes that the world will become better and better.

Tian Yu and Gao Shun looked at the mountain road in front of them, and the continuous camps were laid out one after another, thinking that it was over.

Black Mountain, one south and one north, was divided by Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang. The two sides opened up several passages to Bingzhou separately, and established a city gate on the dangerous pass as quickly as possible.

In this way, Montenegro became a series of its own and became a relatively closed barrier. It was difficult for the nomads outside to enter, but the people inside could attack at any time.

This move put a lot of pressure on the Southern Huns in Bingzhou. They could no longer rely on cavalry to plunder through Montenegro, but cavalry could be stationed inside Montenegro to harass the Southern Huns base camp at any time.

In this way, the Southern Huns had to consider the consequences of being an enemy of Jizhou. Presumably, they would send envoys to negotiate in the near future.

This was the plan Yuan Xi and Guo Jiajushou had made before. After conquering Montenegro, Youzhou mobilized civilians to build fortifications and level roads inside Montenegro day and night. The purpose was to build Montenegro into a huge military fortress.

The fly in the ointment is that Yuan Shang shamelessly copied Yuan Xi's practice, and built fortification camps in the southern part of Heishan near Weijun.

In this way, Yuan Xi must carefully consider sending troops south to Huaicheng, Hanoi in the future. After all, soldiers and horses use Yuan Shang's territory, who knows what will happen, what if they are blocked inside?

But in Yuan Shang's view, the same is true for Yuan Xi, and he did not dare to leave Yuan Xi's territory easily. Now the two belong to each other's disgust, but there is nothing they can do about each other.

But this is what Yuan Xi wants to see. In addition to Bingzhou, Yuan Shang can only go to Sili to find opportunities, and there will inevitably be conflicts with Cao Cao. Although Yuan Xi suspects that the two have colluded, from the perspective of future generations, Yuan Shang's position is at least Still on Yuan's side.

The fundamental interests of Yuan Shang and Cao Cao are in conflict, and it is destined that they cannot continue to cooperate, and they will turn their faces sooner or later. Yuan Xi took this opportunity to make arrangements in advance to eliminate some hidden dangers.

At the same time, he sent a letter asking Tian Yu Gaoshun to complete the construction of the city wall and appease the local area, and then return to Beixincheng to train troops.

Gao Shun and Tian Yu are now according to Zheng Yuanxi's instructions, while letting people build a village, while letting officials sent by Youzhou lead the local people to cultivate and produce, so as to recover as quickly as possible.

After the battle in Montenegro, Yuan Xi gained a population of 10,000+, but most of them were old, young, women and children, and there were only tens of thousands of young and strong laborers.

To the surprise of the local people in Montenegro, Youzhou did not conscript these young men into the army, but let them engage in production on the spot.

Yuan Xi knew very well that if young and strong laborers were recruited and farming was neglected, the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled would starve to death, so he mobilized grain seeds from Beixin City to let the people of Heishan rely on themselves first, and then recover.

This method may pay off a lot in the future, but now it is putting a lot of pressure on Youzhou, and the food stored is stretched, which has made Xu You, who is in charge of the deployment in Beixincheng, overwhelmed.

He wondered for a while whether Yuan Xi was deliberately looking for excuses to punish him. Thinking of the other party's tricks, Xu You was trembling all day long, for fear of being pulled out of the bed in the middle of the night and hacked.

In these fearful days, Xu You has become a bird of fright, and he is in constant fear all day long. However, today he received a letter from Yuan Shang, and when he opened it, tears immediately flowed down his face.

Yuan Shang called him back to Yecheng and re-arranged his official position.

He can never stay in Youzhou again!

With tears in his eyes, Xu You quickly took out the seal ribbon, took it and went to find Chen Gui, the temporary city guard, he put the seal ribbon in front of Chen Gui, laughed and jumped away, and went straight out of the city, leaving a blank look on his face. Chen Gui was in a daze.

The next day, after Chen Gui learned what happened, he couldn't help but sigh that the young master is really amazing, let's see what he has driven him into!
He picked up the letter from Yuan Xi and asked someone to deliver it to Yuan Xi's mansion, thinking about the time, he was afraid that Yuan Xi would return to Beixin City in more than half a month.

Before that, I had to find someone to take up the burden that Xu You had left behind, but that was good too. It was always a hidden danger to keep Xu You in Beixin City. Now that the other party left voluntarily, it saved me a lot of trouble.

Cao Xian lay pitifully in front of the window of the hut behind the door, received the people who came to complain about their difficulties, and recorded their opinions one by one on the bamboo slips.

After finally waiting until lunch time, the people dispersed. Seeing Mrs. Du bringing food from afar, Cao Xian got up and said with a smile, "Please trouble Madam."

Mrs. Du hurriedly said: "Madam is the one who has worked hard. Speaking of which, the mansion is so short of people, and Madam doesn't ask Young Master for some people?"

Cao Xian sighed, "Don't mention it."

The two were talking, when Chen Gui's letter arrived, Cao Xian opened it, and said happily, "Young Master is coming back!"

Mrs. Du was startled. The rumored lecherous tiger is coming back?
Can't stay here!
