Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 487 is not normal
In Jicheng, Youzhou, a group of carriages took advantage of the darkness to call at the gate of the city. The defenders put down the rope at the top of the city, and after getting the opponent's token, they quickly opened the gate to welcome the team in.

The motorcade arrived in front of the official residence in Jicheng. Zhao Yun had already heard the news and greeted him from the residence. He asked Guo Jiaqi, who hurried off the carriage, "Why are you here, sir?"

Previously, Guo Jia and Tian Yu went to Beixin City to guard against the Southern Huns, and Zhao Yun was in Jicheng, but now Guo Jia came back silently, or entered the city overnight, Zhao Yun thought, what kind of emergency happened?
Guo Jia looked solemn, and ordered the soldiers to carry out a large bamboo bamboo bamboo slip carriage, and said to Zhao Yun, "Go in and talk."

Seeing that Guo Jia had never been so nervous, Zhao Yun quickly took Guo Jia into the study.

He bent down to pick them up, placed them on the table one by one, and said, "General, please take a look."

Zhao Yun didn't know why, so he quickly opened the volume, and found that it contained information from various places in Youzhou in the past few months.

Guo Jiadao: "Guorang is in charge of intelligence collection in Youzhou, so during this period, all military information and secret reports from spies have been sent to Beixincheng."

"But I checked the information a few days ago, and it became more and more wrong."

Looking at the piles of bamboo slips, Zhao Yun couldn't figure it out in a hurry, so he hurriedly said, "Please explain to me, sir."

Guo Jia took a tube of bamboo slips and unfolded them, pointed at them and said, "This is a routine inspection cavalry sent by Youzhou. The route is from Youzhou to the wharf along the coast of Xuzhou."

"It set off at Piaoyuyi Wharf in Yuyang, went all the way south along the coast, and passed through the Bohai Sea in Jizhou, but when it entered Qingzhou, it was stopped and told that it could not pass."

After hearing this, Zhao Yun asked suspiciously: "Could it be that Yuan Qingzhou was dissatisfied with the Donglai naval battle, so he deliberately made things difficult?"

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "But the wharf of sea ships is always open. If so, why stop Yuan's cavalry?"

He took out another bamboo slip, "The spies in Jizhou said that in the south of the Yellow River, small groups of unknown troops have been mobilized many times, especially at night."

Zhao Yun was puzzled and said, "How many people are there, what's unusual?"

Guo Jia said in a deep voice, "It's not that many, about one or two hundred people."

Just as Zhao Yun breathed a sigh of relief, he heard Guo Jia say, "But this situation has lasted for more than a month, and it's not this road, it's happened in several roads!"

Only then did Zhao Yun become alert, "Which direction are you going?"

Guo Jia replied: "It is Taishan County in the easternmost part of Yanzhou!"

Only then did Zhao Yun's face turn serious, "If the information is true, the scale of this troop transfer is really not small, but why Taishan County?"

"Could it be that Cao Cao is jealous because he sees Yuan Tan recruiting Taishan bandits, and wants a piece of the pie?"

Guo Jia sighed, "That's the problem."

"It makes sense to say that they dispatched troops in batches with the intention of attacking the Taishan thieves, but the more time passes, the easier it is for them to be exposed. These soldiers are now unknown. What are they doing?"

He pulled out another bamboo slip, "This is the information sent back by spies from Qingzhou and Langya."

"Soldiers under Yuan Qingzhou's command lined up on the frontier, and found their whereabouts from Taishan County in Yanzhou to the north of Xiapi in Xuzhou."

"Yuan Qingzhou did this, why?"

Zhao Yun understood that this matter was really strange, and said, "Could it be that these two sides know each other's details and want to attack each other?"

He then shook his head, "No, there is a problem."

"This kind of large-scale deployment of troops cannot be targeted indiscriminately, and there must be a plan."

"The key is, has Yuan Qingzhou informed the young master?"

Guo Jia clapped his hands and said, "The general has hit a point!"

"If Yuan Qingzhou uses troops, he will definitely tell the young master. After all, both parties are the children of the Yuan family. If they don't know everything, it is inevitable that there will be accidents of misjudgment."

"If you inform the young master, it means that he is acting frankly. Even if you don't tell the inside story, you should have some hints."

"But if you conceal it and keep the young master in the dark, I'm afraid there will be a big problem!"

Zhao Yun was terrified, "Sir, are you saying that Yuan Qingzhou wants to harm the young master?"

Guo Jia sighed: "I don't know, but combined with Yuan Qingzhou's movements, I found that I ignored one thing before."

"After this incident, Yuan Qingzhou may have some grudges in his heart, or even worse!"

Zhao Yun hurriedly said, "What is it?"

Guo Jia's face was solemn, "Young master gave birth to a boy!"

"One is enough, the key is two!"

"These are the only two male heirs of the third generation of the Yuan family. What do you think Yuan Qingzhou will think?"

Zhao Yun was terrified, "Sir, you are right, Yuan Qingzhou's mentality may indeed change greatly because of this!"

"Do you want to send a letter to remind the young master now?"

Guo Jia sighed, "It will take at least seven or eight days to send a letter to Xuzhou."

"After all, counting the distance, the young master has already arrived in Xuzhou. It would be fine if he arrived in Guangling. After all, there is General Taishi over there, so he should be able to take care of it."

"But if it's in Haixi."

Zhao Yun suddenly got up, "Mr. Trouble, sit in the town, Yun will lead the troops to Xuzhou now!"

"If you wait for something to happen with the young master, it will be too late to start!"

Guo Jia nodded and said, "The general is right, I think so too."

"Now our lineage depends entirely on the gathering of the young masters. If something happens to them and Youzhou is also taken over by the Yuan family, where will our group of people go?"

"Master, absolutely nothing will happen!"

Zhao Yun strode out, "Yun understands!"

"As soon as there is business in the city, I will trouble you sir!"

Not long after, Zhao Yun took hundreds of well-armed cavalry, ordered to open the gate of Jicheng, and galloped towards Piaoyuyi Wharf in Yuyang County.

Zhao Yun took the lead, held a torch, and led the cavalry in a hurry in the night. He looked back at the soldiers behind him. They were the most elite and most experienced group in Youzhou.

Not to mention the equipment, from weapons to armor to stirrups are all the best, now is the time to play a role!

In Qucheng, Donghai, the banquet was still going on, Ju Shou and Mi Fang were chatting one after another, and got a rough idea of ​​what Donghai was doing.

He frowned and said, "The eunuch thinks that these few conflicts with Yuan Qingzhou didn't save Liu Yuzhou any face at all?"

Mi Fang was already a little drunk at this time, when he heard this, he was furious, threw the wine bar on the table, and said inarticulately: "I, I'm telling the truth!"

"I admire Mr. Xianyi very much. At this age, you have achieved something that I may not be able to do in my whole life, or even dare to think about it. I am very admired!"

"But I really don't admire Yuan Qingzhou!"

"He doesn't show any affection to us, he's too deceitful!"

"If I hadn't taken care of the overall situation, I would have fought him long ago!"

Ju Shou and Yuan Xi looked at each other, "Does General Guan think the same way?"

Mi Fang looked unhappy, "Who knows!"

"I can't control him anymore!"

"He trains sailors all day long. Does the East China Sea need sailors?"

"There were boats provoking Yuan Qingzhou several times, but General Guan actually held back. He was bullied to the door, and he still swallowed his anger like this. If so, what do you do with training in the navy?"

After speaking, Mi Fang took another big gulp of wine.

Seeing that it was getting dark outside, Ju Shou said, "General Guan has been practicing navy?"

Mi Fang slurred her words: "That's right, he doesn't even come back at night, just stays on the boat, I don't understand what he's thinking!"

Seeing that Mi Fang was getting more and more confused, she turned sideways and whispered to Yuan Xi: "My lord, I always feel that something is not quite right."

"General Guan didn't come to the banquet today, it should not be neglecting young master. I'm afraid there must be a reason for him to be so urgently prepared."

Yuan Xi listened, nodded and said: "I think so too. It seems that the situation in Xuzhou is quite weird, and it's not as good as I thought before."

"I more or less want to meet with General Guan and ask carefully what happened."

Mi Fang was so drunk at this time, she staggered to her feet, pulled Yuan Xi and went out, "Master, at least come here once, don't you see my little sister?"

Yuan Xi smiled wryly and said, "I'm afraid it's not proper."

Mi Fang drunkenly said: "What etiquette is not etiquette, I am her elder brother, if I agree, it is proper etiquette!"

"Could it be that the young master hates the little sister?"

Yuan Xi said helplessly: "Nothing."

Seeing this, Jushou Lu Xun couldn't help smiling wryly. Although Mi Fang's official position is not low now and she has entered the ranks of the gentry, she is still a little confused.

The few people present, including Sun Li, knew that they were going to the female family's inner house, so it was not easy to follow Yuan Xi there. Ju Shou glanced at Lu Lingqi, who was eating her elbow, and Lu Lingqi realized it.

Reluctantly, she put down her elbows and walked out, scolding Mi Fang who disturbed her meal in her heart.

Wouldn't it be stingy for Yuan Xi to go to see his good friend and follow him?
She followed Yuan Xi slowly, Mi Fang turned her head and said, "Female, sir"

Yuan Xi hurriedly said: "She will go with me."

Mi Fang had no choice but to drag Yuan Xi to the small building where Mi Zhen was, and shouted loudly: "Little sister, the envoy has come to see you!"

Mi Zhen had already seen a few people coming from the window of the small building, she was feeling uneasy, thinking why brother is acting so absurdly!

What does this appear to be?
As a result, Mi Fang opened her voice loudly, Mi Zhen's eyes instantly went dark when she heard it.

She was so ashamed and angry that she almost wanted to jump off the stairs, how could she have such an incomprehensible elder brother!

Mi Fang called out a few more times, seeing no answer, she laughed and said, "Little sister is thin-skinned, I'm afraid she is shy."

Mi Zhen's vision went dark again, and she immediately wanted to lift the table and throw it down, knocking Mi Fang unconscious.

Mi Fang yelled a few times, but seeing the silence inside, she resentfully said: "Let me do what you want, I'll go back to drink with you first."

He pushed Yuan Xi forward, with a meaningful smile on his lips, "Great opportunity, don't miss it."

After speaking, he swayed back.

Yuan Xi stood on the ground in embarrassment, Lu Lingqi laughed and said: "This brother is really extraordinary."

"Should I go too?"

Yuan Xi hurriedly said: "Don't, if you leave, I won't be able to clean up by jumping into the Yellow River, and it will also damage the reputation of the girl from the Mi family."

Lu Lingqi said contemptuously: "There is a wicked heart but no courage!"

At this moment, a maid pushed the door out and said respectfully: "Miss, please let the king and madam go upstairs to talk."
