Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 634 The deadline is approaching
Faced with Yuan Xi's question, Yuan Tan did not want to answer. He was irritated because this question opened the scars in his heart. But the more this happened, the more Yuan Tan was unwilling to face it. He looked impatient and said: " I thought the second brother was on my side!"

"Although I did something wrong before, brother, now, shouldn't we join forces to deal with the third brother?"

"Or what benefits did third brother promise to give you?"

"I can give you whatever third brother can give you, and I can give you even more!"

After hearing Yuan Tan's words, Yuan Xi sighed: "Brother, stop it."

"How will you behave in front of the Lord in the future?"

Yuan Tan gritted his teeth, how could there be a future?
Yuan Shao is already dying, he is waiting for this change now!

When the two met in the camp, Yuan Shang was on top of the city, staring worriedly at the distant camp.

Pang Ji next to him said: "Master, if Master Xianyi is not allowed to enter the city, will he suspect us and turn around and join forces with Master Xiansi?"

Yuan Shang also became a little anxious, "Of course I know, but how could I let him enter the city like that just now?"

"If Yuan Tan rushes in, I won't be able to resist him!"

Pang Ji said in a deep voice: "This is exactly what the eldest son wants the young master to think, so he surrounded all four gates."

"The current situation is very delicate. If the young master makes a mistake, the two men outside the city may be forced to join forces to attack the city. What will the young master do then?"

Yuan Shang clenched his fists and said, "I also know that I am the one in the worst situation right now."

"The only person I can rely on is my father, but Yuan Tan is obviously pretending to be confused."

"He spread rumors that I was plotting against my father. I invited him into the city, but he used the excuse that I had ulterior motives. He understood that this was actually a siege and wanted to trap me to death!"

Pang Ji said in a deep voice: "So now the only thing you can rely on is Master Xianyi."

"Master, you should be lucky. Although Master Xianyi has a particularly bad reputation, he is actually a person who cares about old friendships."

"When the young master targeted him, he did not continue to pursue it either because of his status as the young master at that time or because of his original face. In fact, at that time, it was the best opportunity for the young master to make amends with him."

"Otherwise, the relationship between Young Master and him should be much closer than it is now."

Yuan Shang said seductively: "I know that I can enter Yecheng, see my father, and stand here because of his gift."

"But Yuan Tan's arrival has become a variable. I don't dare to completely trust anyone now. After all, it concerns people in this city, and I can't afford to take the risk."

Pang Ji looked at the camp in the distance, pondered, and then slowly said, "I can guess what Young Master Xian Yi means."

"He has always insisted on destroying Cao first and then settling the ownership of Jizhou."

"That's why he is meeting Mr. Xiansi now because of this idea."

"At the beginning, I didn't understand the thoughts of Master Xianyi and Tian Feng Jushu. Now that I saw the damage done by Cao Jun, I realized that they were right."

"Master, why can't you have a frank talk with the two young masters?"

After listening to Pang Ji's words, Yuan Shang thought of his Five Stone Powder and couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Only a very few people know the origin of the Five Stone Powder in Yuan Shang's hand. This is Yuan Shang's heartache. He is afraid that this matter will be revealed to the world, and then he will be charged with murdering his father and his reputation will be ruined!
Now it seems that Yuan Xi will not use this matter to threaten himself, but Yuan Tan will definitely do it!

Pang Ji didn't see Yuan Shang's expression and said to himself: "At present, Cao Ying's forces have become a serious problem in Jizhou."

"So now no matter what, we can't start a war with those two people outside. For this reason, I am willing to go out of the city to persuade Mr. Xiansi to temporarily put aside our prejudices and join forces to attack Cao Cao!"

Yuan Shang was shocked when he heard this and said hurriedly: "No sir!"

"Sir, you are my butt. If you are detained by him, who will advise me?"

Pang Ji said in a deep voice: "I have to do this."

"Since Dong Zhuo's rebellion, I followed Duke Benchu ​​to escape from Chang'an and helped him conquer Jizhou. I deeply feel the kindness of Duke Benchu ​​in knowing me. But now that Duke is seriously ill, I will do whatever it takes to eliminate this disaster."

"As for when I leave the city, I can ask Shen Pei to take my place."

After hearing this, Yuan Shang was quite surprised and said: "Trial match?"

"Didn't sir have any disagreements with him?"

"And his nephew is suspected of colluding with Cao Cao and Yuan Tan. If I use him"

Pang Ji explained: "Because of this, Shen Pei will work hard to prove his innocence."

"I personally visited him the day before yesterday to reconcile with him and explain the crisis in Jizhou to him. I believe he will understand the pros and cons of it both publicly and privately."

After hearing this, Yuan Shang was moved and said: "Shang is deeply touched by Sir's painstaking efforts, but..."

He still had doubts, because Pang Ji was extremely important to him. If he was allowed to leave the city, what would happen if he was allowed to leave the city?
And why would Pang Ji rather recommend Shen Mate, who had issues with him, than Xu You?

Isn’t Xu You more respected by his father?
While he was still hesitating, a guard quickly came up to the top of the city and whispered a few words in Yuan Shang's ear. After hearing this, Yuan Shang's face changed greatly. He quickly took Pang Ji down to the top of the city, got on the carriage and headed to Yuan Shao's mansion. Go.Inside Yuan Shao's mansion, Hua Tuo was applying acupuncture to Yuan Shao with a serious look on his face. He moved like the wind and inserted dozens of golden needles into Yuan Shao's upper body and limbs.

Although he cut off most of the blood, blood was still flowing out from the corners of Yuan Shao's mouth, his face was like gold paper, he was dying, his body was shaking constantly, and he was about to die.

Hua Tuo became fierce, took out another set of silver needles, and pushed them into Yuan Shao's door. The counselors outside the door paled.

Fortunately, Yuan Shao's trembling body slowly calmed down.

Hua Tuo wiped his sweat, stepped back, and washed his hands with the water in the copper basin. The counselors took the opportunity to come forward, and Xu You whispered: "Mr. Miaoshou, have you passed the danger?"

Hua Tuo hesitated and whispered: "From this moment on, I can't do anything."

The faces of all the counselors changed greatly after hearing this. Hua Tuo's words were very clear. Yuan Shao could die at any time!
It happens to be this time of internal and external troubles!
Thinking of Cao's army being temporarily repulsed outside the city, and the Yuan family's three sons confronting each other inside and outside the city, everyone's mouths were filled with tears. The current situation in Yecheng was even worse than when the Black Mountain Army sneak attack on Yecheng!
There was a sound of footsteps, and Yuan Shang rushed over with the hem of his robe in hand. A group of counselors quickly went up and explained the situation in a low voice. After hearing this, Yuan Shang's face became even more frightened.

He rushed into the room and saw Mrs. Liu winking at him from the side. He quickly approached the bed and called out softly to Yuan Shao, who had his eyes closed.

After a while, Yuan Shao slowly opened his eyes. With great difficulty, he turned his head sideways, distinguished the person in his blurred vision, and said, "Xianfu, you are here."

As soon as he spoke, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and Yuan Shang couldn't help crying, "Father, I'm here, don't talk anymore."

Mrs. Liu on the side felt anxious after hearing this. She quickly winked at Yuan Shang, but found that Yuan Shang didn't look at her at all. She quickly stepped forward and knelt in front of Yuan Shao's bed, and whispered: "Husband, the counselors outside are waiting. Do you want them to come in?"

After hearing this, Yuan Shao moved his fingers slightly and said with difficulty: "Let them all come in."

Not long after, Xu Youxunchen, Shenpei Xinpi, Pang Ji Chunyuqiong and others all came in and knelt on the ground.

Yuan Shao's vision was now blurry, and he could only distinguish people from the tone of their words. When he opened his mouth, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. Yuan Shang was in a hurry. Just as he was about to speak, his sleeve was pulled by Mrs. Liu.

Yuan Shang turned around in shock, only to see Mrs. Liu looking down at the floor. Only then did he react, look back at Yuan Shao, and bite his lips.

Yuan Shao gasped a few times before speaking with difficulty.

Although his voice was very weak, it was very clear, "From now on, Xianfu will be the head of the Yuan family. Jizhou Mu will be in charge of the military affairs of the four states. I hope that you will support me and Shaogan. You will be loyal and loyal."

After hearing this, all the counselors knelt down one after another, bowed down and accepted the order.

Ms. Liu was kneeling aside. Although her face looked sad, she could not hide the joy in her eyes.

Become!

From now on, Jizhou belongs to him and Yuan Shang!

Yuan Shao coughed, and Yuan Shang quickly went up, took out the silk scarf in his arms, and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. At this time, Yuan Shao suddenly remembered something, "How is it outside the city?"

"Where's Xianyi?"

"Isn't Xiansi here yet?"

Yuan Shang said quickly: "Xianyi has pushed back Cao's army to the south of the Yellow River!"

After hearing this, Yuan Shao showed a look of relief on his face. Then he heard that Yuan Shang said that Yuan Tan had arrived and that Yuan Xi was outside the city. First, there was a trace of doubt on his face, and then he seemed to have figured out something, and then he showed a trace of anger. .

He said: "Send someone to send a message and let the two of them enter the city alone."

Yuan Xi was arguing with Yuan Tan in the camp. The two brothers, who were originally brothers, had completely different purposes. They spoke with a lot of anger and emotion, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

The subordinates on both sides did not dare to interrupt. At this moment, a guard came in and said that Yuan Shao had orders in the city and asked them to enter the city alone.

Yuan Tan's first reaction was that he didn't believe it. He laughed and said, "This must be my third brother defrauding me. It's such a childish strategy."

However, Yuan Xi stood up and said calmly: "Brother, why don't you go to the city to have a look?"

Seeing Yuan Tan's hesitation, he said, "I'm in front. If someone plots against him, I will bear the brunt."

Yuan Tan looked a little ugly and followed Yuan Xi out of the camp and all the way to the bottom of Ye City. However, the city gate did not open. Instead, two hanging baskets were lowered from the top of the city. Xu Youshenpei said at the top of the city: "I am Chu Gong has ordered the two young masters to enter the city alone."

Yuan Xi had already guessed in his heart that Yuan Shao was afraid that he would not survive, so he did not answer, stepped forward and stood in a hanging basket.

Yuan Tan didn't move because of this. When he saw Yuan Xi staring at him, he turned his head unconsciously and looked at Guo Tuxinping behind him. Guo Tu winked at Yuan Tan repeatedly and shook his head slightly. Yuan Tan saw it and hesitated. He stood up and hesitated in his steps.

Yuan Xi took everything in his eyes and sighed in his heart. He could not stay here with Yuan Tan forever, so he waved his hand to the people at the top of the city to pull him up.

The hanging basket rose slowly. Yuan Tan saw Yuan Xi rising gradually, looking down at him, with some unexplainable meaning in his eyes. Yuan Tan felt that Yuan Xi seemed to be mocking his timidity and unconsciously took a step forward.

However, Guo Tu took a few steps forward and stood in front of Yuan Tan. Yuan Tan suddenly woke up and stopped again.

When Yuan Xi reached the top of the city and stepped out of the hanging basket, Shen Pei came up to meet him and said in a low voice: "The horses are ready, sir."

Yuan Xi looked back at the city and found that Yuan Tan was still standing still, so he turned back and said, "No need to wait."

Xu You saw Shen Pei following Yuan Xi down to the top of the city, and then looked back at Yuan Tan below the city, thinking that what would happen next would be big trouble.
