Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 450

Yuan Xi saw that the door opened and it was Mrs. Du who came out. Although he was prepared, he was still surprised by her.

Mrs. Du was originally very distinctive, with a high nose and deep eyes, a gentle expression, and a curvy figure. She was about 20 years old, with both youthful and married charm, and she hadn't seen her for two years, but the other party became more and more special. The charm comes out.

Yuan Xi thought to himself, no wonder Cao Cao likes wives. In this era, teenage girls are all wives. Who doesn't like 20 years old, who is both young and mature.

Madam Du also recognized Yuan Xi in an instant, and she thought to herself that it was Yinhu who saved her secretly!
No wonder the other party was able to know his whereabouts when he escaped. Except for those who know the art of stargazing, who can predict the future?
And looking at the other person's appearance, could it be that he shaved his beard to change his appearance in order to see himself?
The sacrifice is too great!
At this moment, Madam Du was very moved!

She hurriedly bowed to Yuan Xi: "Sir, in order to save my concubine's life, I put my life in danger, I am really grateful!"

Yuan Xi was bewildered, what's going on?
What did I risk?
He tried a few words, and found that Mrs. Du actually regarded himself as a lifesaver?

Mrs. Du's eyes were red, "I'm afraid that the one who asked someone to bring the concubine out of Wenhou's mansion was also the husband?"

"This concubine knows that Mr. is in Youzhou and should be under the command of the fierce tiger, but now he is willing to take risks, which makes my heart really uneasy."

Yuan Xi was dumbfounded, don't be so imaginative, okay?
He rubbed his nose in embarrassment and said, "It's not what Madam thinks."

Seeing Yuan Xi's troubled face, Madam Du understood after a little thought, her face flushed slightly, and she said in a low voice: "I also understand Mr.'s intentions."

"My husband saved me, but I have nothing to repay him. If my husband does not abandon me, I will follow my husband."

ha?
Yuan Xi's face was dull, are you trying to attack yourself?
Are you misunderstanding something?
Mrs. Du saw Yuan Xi's embarrassed look, and thought that the other party was afraid of the vicious tiger's power, she felt ashamed, she bowed her head and said: "I know that husband and wife are deeply in love, what I said just now is really selfish, because it is difficult to protect myself alone, so I seek Mister Asylum."

"I'm too selfish, but I didn't expect the consequences of implicating my husband. I just leave now."

Seeing Mrs. Du making up a big show, Yuan Xi thought to herself, does Mrs. Du have such a silly personality?
He said aloud: "Miss Wenhou is in the city, Madam is familiar with her, why don't you meet her, instead come to me for asylum?"

"As Mrs. Tiger, how can she be more capable of protecting Mrs. than me?"

Mrs. Du sighed: "I don't want to cause trouble for the noble lady Wen Hou."

"Besides, the concubine heard that the vicious tiger was lustful, so she accepted it whenever she met a girl. If he brought the concubine into the house, how could the concubine have the face to face Wenhou girl?"

Yuan Xi vomits blood, do I have such a bad reputation?
However, seeing that Mrs. Du was so resistant to his original identity, he thought to himself that if he confessed his identity now, the other party would be even more confused, right?
Let's talk about it in a few days, or find someone to send him away?

He thought for a while, then sighed, "I'm sorry for my madam."

"I was the one who came up with the idea of ​​sending General Qin as an envoy to Yuan Shu."

"What?" Madam Du was startled, her face turned pale, "Do you know that if you follow Yuan Shu, you will divorce your concubine?"

Yuan Xi nodded, "That's right."

Mrs. Du took a few steps back, confused, "Why does Mr. treat my concubine like this?"

"The concubine didn't do anything?"

"Could it be, sir?"

Yuan Xi also felt a little guilty in his heart, and sighed: "I will find someone to escort Madam out of the city another day, and I will try my best to go there Madam is willing to go."

After speaking, he turned and left.

Mrs. Du didn't expect Yuan Xi to leave like this, but she was in a daze. What kind of thing is this?

Yuan Xi was walking on the road. Regarding Mrs. Du, he thought that Qin Yilu would not be able to protect Mrs. Du, so he simply let the two separate early.

But at that time, he didn't think well. Mrs. Du didn't have Qin Yilu, let alone the protection, but she was in a more difficult situation. Yuan Xi knew that what he had done was unethical, and if he didn't do anything about the aftermath, it was tantamount to killing and not burying Mrs. Du. The predicament was caused by him.

Seeing that his two identities were misunderstood by the other party, Yuan Xi suddenly lost the interest in explaining. Besides, he even boasted to Lu Lingqi that he didn't know the whereabouts of Mrs. Du.
This time, I have blown all the bullshit about Lu Lingqi. According to the oath at that time, I am afraid that someone will come to chase and kill me, right?

Feeling guilty, he sneaked back to the mansion, and as soon as he entered the door, he bumped into Mrs. Hou.

Madam Hou was holding the child, hurriedly walked out with her head down, she didn't notice Yuan Xi, but suddenly bumped into her, she let out a panic and fell back.

Yuan Xi had sharp eyesight and quick hands, and quickly grabbed Madam Hou's arm to stop the fall, so Madam Hou did not fall.

When she looked up, her face flushed and her shoulders shook. Yuan Xi just woke up and let go.

Seeing Mrs. Hou's panicked expression, he asked, "Where is Madam going?"

Mrs. Hou said in a low voice: "The child has a fever. I thought it would be too late to call the doctor, so I went out to find a doctor."

After Yuan Xi heard this, he asked, "Mr. Yuan Hua is not in the military camp in the city?"

"Finding him is much more reliable than ordinary doctors. I'll take you there."

Mrs. Hou quickly waved her hand and said: "I can go by myself, and I don't have to delay your son's important affairs."

Seeing Mrs. Hou's insistence, Yuan Xi had no choice but to call a carriage and ask Sun Li to take Mrs. Hou to see Hua Tuo.

He thought to himself that although he didn't know what kind of disease Mrs. Hou's daughter was suffering from, but at this time the epidemics were frequent, so he had to be careful.

Infectious diseases in this era have always been a very troublesome problem. Whether it is in terms of epidemic prevention awareness or related hygiene products, it is far from being comparable to that of later generations.

Let’s talk about the simplest mask, because there is no cotton plantation at present, and the related substitutes are too different. Whether it is linen or silk yarn, the effect of making a mask is greatly reduced compared to cotton.

Thinking of this, Yuan Xi was a little impatient. Although it was a long and complicated process from cotton planting to the spinning wheel used for cotton weaving, a year earlier would have the advantage of being a year earlier.

Even if I asked Zhen Yao from Haixi to send a caravan to search for cotton, it has been almost a year now. Even if the sea-going ships of the Zhen family caravan went to India for trade, they should be able to go back and forth.

Cotton seed is not a rare commodity, and the local area should be happy to trade it, but the world is changing, who knows what accidents will happen?

While thinking, he walked into the house.

In the study in the backyard, Cao Xian was explaining to Lu Lingqi what he was doing. Cao Xian's job was to read it through, and then select the essence to record on the bamboo slips. The ordinary bamboo slips were filed, and urgent matters were sent to Yuan Xi.

While listening, Lu Lingqi saw hundreds of bamboo slips piled up all over the room, she couldn't help being dumbfounded, "Are you really his concubine Ji, not his maid?"

"How can anyone use people like this, even slaves?"

Cao Xian laughed, "Madam is quite proud, and my concubine often feels resentful in her heart."

"But Madam should be able to tell that Husband doesn't trust people easily. There are actually not many reliable people around him."

"So these things, the concubine can only reluctantly take care of them."

"The son saved the concubine's family, and the concubine can only repay the son in this way."

After hearing this, Lu Lingqi said, "I heard that Madam is the orphan of Duke Wen Li?"

"It was Cao Mengde who attacked?"

After Cao Xian heard this, he said bitterly: "Thief Cao killed my whole family, only our mother and son survived, and fell into the wolf den. Life would be worse than death. This revenge must be avenged!"

"Furthermore, the concubine still bears the surname of a thief, which is a great shame!"

Lu Lingqi also heard from Yuan Xi that Cao Xian was different from the Huan family. If he wanted to recognize his ancestors and return to the Bian family, he needed Cao Cao's consent, which was almost impossible.

Cao Xian obviously didn't want to cause trouble for Yuan Xi, so he endured it all the time.

Feeling sympathetic, Lu Lingqi waved her fist and said, "Don't worry, I'll help you get Cao Cao's head when we're on the battlefield!"

Cao Xian only thought that Lu Lingqi was comforting himself, and said with a chuckle: "Madam has this kind of heart, and the concubine is very satisfied. Speaking of which, Marquis Wen is also relieved. He dared to let Madam follow her husband to the battlefield, and he is not afraid of accidents?"

Lu Lingqi proudly said: "Of course Father doesn't know, I kept all these things from him!"

Cao Xianjue fell, Lu Lingqi spoke directly, and her heart was really straightforward.

She rolled her eyes, "Husband is nice to his wife, but it's just hard at night, right?" After speaking, she stretched out two thumbs to compare.

Lu Lingqi was confused, "What night?"

Cao Xian lowered his voice, "Isn't Madam married?"

"My husband is sometimes not very considerate at night, right?"

There was an extremely gossip expression on her face, "It is said that the girls who spend the night with the young master come out of the wall the next day."

Lu Lingqi was confused for a long time, but she still seemed to understand, she touched her head and said: "It's a coincidence that I happened to come to Tiankui when I got married, and then I came to Beixin City all the way, but I didn't do anything all the time."

"He went too far at night? He abused you?"

"Look, I will teach him a lesson tonight, so that he will not dare to treat you like this in the future!"

Cao Xian's eyes widened, where did you get the confidence?
But it seems that there is a good show tonight.

The corner bench is ready!
At this moment, footsteps came, and Yuan Xi's voice sounded, "So you are here."

He walked in, looked at the bamboo slips in the room, and saw more than a dozen bald pens on the table, and said to Cao Xian, "I have wronged you."

"When the autumn planting is over, we will go back to Jicheng together. I will arrange for others to do the things here."

Cao Xian said, "What about Madam Hou?"

Yuan Xi hesitated for a moment, "In the future, I will focus on the whole territory of Youzhou. It is not suitable for scattered people to live here anymore. Let them all go to Jicheng, so as to save some manpower."

Cao Xian thought to himself that it will be lively at that time, Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Hou are the two important people, maybe there will be a big show every day?
The bench is ready!
She rolled her eyes, with an expression that she didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, "Mrs. Lu said, I have a lot to talk to you tonight."
