Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 62 Daughter of Zhen Family
Yuan Shao heard what Mrs. Liu said, and said coldly, "It's just nonsense, what a shame!"

"I heard that he did a lot of ridiculous things in Beixin City. I didn't believe it at first, but I didn't think about it, but it was true!"

"I haven't done anything serious for three years, thinking about women all day long!"

Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "Xi'er is almost twenty. If it were someone else, he would have been married for several years. No wonder he is like this."

Yuan Shao snorted coldly: "Who told me to run over there!"

"I wanted him to get married three years ago, but I didn't expect him to never come back. It seems that he lives in Beixin City much more comfortably than in Ye City!"

When he got excited, he coughed a few times, and Liu quickly came over to help him gently beat his back, and said, "Then how do we arrange those concubines?"

"It's not good to let the Zhen family see it, right?"

Yuan Shao thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, a house will be vacated next to the mansion. Once those women enter the city, they will be brought in and resettled."

"Also, ask Shang'er to take that Nizi and come to see me directly after entering the city!"

Mrs. Liu quickly agreed and went out.

She ordered people to recruit Pang Ji, and said: "Zhou Mu asked you to find a nearby yard to house Xi'er's concubines."

"I remember that Zhen Yao of the Zhen family held Xiaolian as a servant under your command?"

"You put him in charge of this."

Zhen Yao is the son of Zhen Yi, the previous owner of the Zhen family. Pang Ji understood what he heard, and sent someone to the Zhen family.

Looking at Pang Ji's back, Liu sneered in her heart.

That little bastard still wants to marry the daughter of the Zhen family?
The ancestors of the Zhen family used to be the Taibao, and hereditary the post of the two thousand stone prefects. Although they have declined now, they are also a well-known family in Hebei.

There are many branches of the Zhen family, and Zhen Yi is one of them. He used to be the county magistrate of Shangcai. He has three sons and five daughters, and the youngest is Zhen Mi.

But now Zhen Yi has passed away for many years, and two of his sons died young, only Zhen Yao is left as a male.

But at any rate, the Zhen family was involved in business and was quite wealthy. In this chaotic world, money represented food and soldiers, which belonged to the princes.

Yuan Shao's current wife, the Liu family, is also from a prominent family and has clan blood. Although at this time there are not [-] people with clan blood, but they are superior to others after all.

So Mrs. Liu knew the benefits of being backed by her natal family, but what made her angry was that Yuan Shao chose to let Yuan Xi marry the Zhen family instead of Yuan Shang!
The eldest son, Yuan Tan, was born to Yuan Shao's deceased wife. When Yuan Tan married his wife, the Wen family, Yuan Shao hadn't made a fortune yet, so the Wen family's background was not deep, and Liu was not very worried about it.

Yuan Xi was supposed to get married three years ago, but he ran to Beixincheng, but at that time, Yuan Shao had already agreed to marry the Hong family in Hebei.

Yuan Shao's original plan was to let Yuan Xi marry the Hong family. Although the Hong family in Hebei is also a rich family, their background is still inferior to that of the Zhen family.

At that time, Yuan Shao had just won Jizhou from Jizhou Mu Hanfu, and his foothold was not stable, and he urgently needed the support of the local big families. Many big families were still waiting and watching, and only a few families such as the Hong family expressed their willingness to marry.

Now that Yuan Xi ran away, Yuan Shao thought twice, and finally decided to let Yuan Shang marry the Hong family. Although Liu was reluctant at the time, she wanted to show a virtuous and virtuous appearance in front of Yuan Shao, so she finally agreed.

Now Yuan Shao has become popular in Jizhou, and the great families are attached to him one after another. Among Yuan Shao's four sons and one daughter, the fourth son is still young, and only Yuan Xi is suitable for marriage.

So Yuan Shao and the Zhen family agreed that Yuan Xi would marry the youngest daughter of the Zhen family, Zhen Mi.

Mrs. Liu felt resentful in her heart, why Shang'er suffered a disadvantage!

He's just a humble bastard, and he dares to marry Shang'er better than Shang'er!
If Shang'er can't get it, don't even think about it!
Moreover, the Hong family is getting more and more declining, and Shang'er has been dragged down. In addition, the Hong family has nothing to do so far, and the Liu family even wants to find a chance to divorce the Hong family, and let Shang'er marry the famous family.

Yuan Xi closed his eyes in the car and rested his mind. Among the people in Ye City who wanted to deal with him, the most difficult ones were Yuan Shang and his gang.

His mother, Mrs. Liu, was blowing the pillow, and his counselors were making suggestions. Yuan Shangben was good at disguising, so it can be said that he was extremely difficult to deal with.

The intermittent food shortages in Beixin City in the past three years should be related to Yuan Shang, but Yuan Xi couldn't figure out where Yuan Shang's hostility towards him came from.

Logically speaking, it shouldn't be. I am not the eldest son, but a concubine. Why is Yuan Shang so wary of himself?

Although after time travelling, Yuan Xi found that he was almost misled by the gods of the previous generation.

The status of the concubine is not good, and it is just that he is not as good as the concubine, but he is still valued by the family.

At that time, people's lifespan was extremely short, more babies died young, and many gentry clans could not give birth to boys in their lifetime, so they were forced to adopt children of other surnames.

There are heirs who have a heir and a heir, and those who have no heirs and an heir. Even in the Han Dynasty, there were many examples of establishing the virtuous but not the elder.

When Liu Bei was almost 40 years old, he had no heirs yet, so he was forced to accept Liu Feng as his adopted son, and later gave birth to the eldest son Liu Chan.
Yuan Xi couldn't figure out Yuan Shang's motive for a while, so he stopped thinking about it. After all, he didn't return to Yecheng this time just to get married.

The most important purpose is to stir Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou into a pot of porridge in advance, so that Cao Cao, Lu Bu, and Liu Bei can contain each other, so that Yuan Shao can be free to attack Tian Kai and Gongsun Zan, and Yuan Xi can occupy Youzhou early.

So Yuan Xi first pretended to be Yinhu, let Zhang Miao and Lu Bu and Chen Gong prepare for the rebellion early, and then prepared to rescue Cao Song's family, so that Cao Cao had no excuse to attack Xuzhou.

Let Liu Bei have more manpower and material resources to defend after taking over Xuzhou, so that he will not be so embarrassed when facing Cao Cao.

On the other sides, Liu Biao was already on good terms with Yuan Shao, and Zhang Xiu was still Cao Cao's enemy within a few years, so both of them could be used as restraints against Cao Cao.

Yuan Xi will use the two identities of light and dark to collude with the Quartet and suppress Cao Cao. This is the strategy Yuan Xi came up with to control Cao.

This plan is too complicated, and the more intermediate links, the more likely problems will occur. If there is another way, Yuan Xi doesn't want to do it, but he is just an ordinary person. This is the best way he can think of so far.

Because Cao Cao put too much pressure on him.

Cao Cao commented that Yuan Shao was too resourceful and less decisive, because he thought too much and hesitated when making decisions. This was also related to the fact that Yuan Shao had too many factions.

Yuan Shao is too big to lose his tail now, and there are too many nobles standing behind him, so he doesn't dare to gamble anymore.

On the other hand, Cao Cao is a strategist himself. He is extremely decisive when encountering a crisis, and he is extremely gambler, never letting go of any opportunity.

Reflected in the historical process, it was the worst time for Cao Cao. Although only a few cities were left after being beaten, he could always turn the tables and occupy Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Yuzhou, Sizhou, and Yongzhou in just three years. The land surpassed Yuan Shao's four states.

By the time Yuan Shao reacted, it was already too late.

That's why Yuan Xicai tried every means to hold Cao Cao back. He didn't think it was unfair. On the contrary, this was the greatest respect for Cao Cao. After all, if Cao Cao gained power, the Yuan family would really die.

Yuan Xi suddenly opened his eyes, the next step is how to save Cao Song in a legitimate way, the key to this is Yuan Shao!
If Yuan Shang makes trouble again, if Yuan Shao nods, everything will be fine!

In a certain deep compound in Yecheng, on a small two-story building, faint laughter could be heard.

A helpless voice said: "Sister, I'm still reading, so stop arguing."

Another voice giggled and said: "You still pretend, now half of Yecheng knows, your future husband is going back to the city."

A sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, wearing a big red skirt, was sitting in front of the window on the second floor, holding a tube of bamboo slips in her hand.

His hair was in a high bun, his hair drooped lightly, his shoulders were as narrow as a shave, his waist was as thin as a bundle, his neck was slender and fair, and his appearance was stunning and dignified.

She raised her head slightly, frowned slightly, and looked forward with bright eyes. Just this one glance of youth made the decorations in the small building be overshadowed.
