Lord Yuan

Chapter 160 The young and energetic Yuan Shao

Everyone present did not expect that when Yuan Shao was imprisoned, there would be so many people running for him.

Even Yuan Feng was surprised. Although he was already going through the process at that time, and the clan members discussed and decided, it was appropriate to start a discussion on whether it was appropriate to offend the eunuch Cao Jie for Yuan Shao.

But it was a step too late.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shao's network of contacts was so broad that even the former Queen Mother could come forward for him, which was enough to show what kind of person he was.

Yuan Shao continued to say calmly: "But it was like this that allowed me to escape by chance, and finally made me famous in Luoyang, and finally made the Taifu and others hate the eunuchs, and finally led to death. Although my master It was not affected, but I chose to retire and return to my hometown, not because I was hostile to the eunuchs, and even married his daughter to me."

"Not to mention that one day is a teacher and a lifetime is a father. The teacher has been running for me all the way, and he is now my father-in-law. Based on this alone, I would go to see him first, so what? But my uncle Why are you trying to criticize me because of this?"

Yuan Shao's tone was always neither humble nor arrogant, and everything he said was reasonable.

The other members of the Yuan clan were also impressed by him. For the sake of the Yuan clan's children, Yuan Shao did not do anything extraordinary, so what if he just went to see the teacher? His life was almost always saved by him. He survived, not to mention that he was Yuan Shao's father-in-law. There was nothing wrong with these numerous relationships.

Since Yuan used this as a starting point to punish Yuan Shao, he found the wrong way.

At the same time, I was pleased with Yuan Shao's attitude.

Yuan Feng is quite satisfied with Yuan Shao's performance. No matter what, Yuan Shao is his biological son. Even if Yuan Ji has a good plan for the Yuan family, in Yuan Feng's eyes, it is all a way to divide Yuan Shao's brothers. Emotional way.

Yuan Ji sat there blankly, and he suddenly realized that Yuan Shao was able to reach this point not because of any good luck, but purely because of his courage to fight and fight.

It seemed that he had chosen the wrong direction, and at the same time he had placed himself on the opposite side of him.

Turning around, he glanced at the core area.

The attitudes of Yuan Feng and Yuan Wei instantly made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. With their extremely indifferent expressions, it was obvious that they were not optimistic about his actions.

Just when he was about to say something to convince him and let Yuan Shao go for the time being, he didn't expect that Yuan Shao kept talking like a firecracker.

"Even when I went to Liaodong, did my clan help me in the slightest?"

Yuan Ji learned the lesson this time, and his voice was not so loud. He just retorted softly: "As far as I know, the head of the family once wrote you a letter and added three cars of money and silk. Doesn't this count as Yuan's help to you? ?"

Yuan Shao smiled, looked at his father Yuan Feng on the stage and said, "I wonder if my uncle has ever used Yuan's property to help me?"

This question is very level. On the one hand, it transfers the topic to Yuan Feng. As the head of the family, Yuan Feng must choose to take care of one party at this time no matter what. As Yuan Feng's son, he should Occupy a favorable position.

Yuan Feng was lost. After a while, he waved his hands and said calmly: "I think what my brother said is wrong. It is not Yuan's property. It's just that as a father, I couldn't see Ben Chu traveling far away, so I gave it to him. As for I don’t know how you got the letter, but as a father, I couldn’t bear to go to Liaodong for fear of being treated inhumanely, so I wrote a letter to keep an old friend in my care.”

Yuan Feng did not agree with Yuan Ji who insisted on holding this discussion. What's more, he pointed the finger at Yuan Shao nakedly, which he could not tolerate.

Yuan Ji's face fell instantly. He didn't understand that everything he did was for the good of the Yuan family. With such good intentions, why could the head of the family just not see it and cover up a bastard, making him arrogant? So arrogant.

"What the head of the family said is wrong. Since the head of the family is the head of the family, everything he thinks, thinks, does, and does must be for the sake of the family. Everything the family spends must be adequately rewarded. Only in this way can the family head's There was nothing wrong with the decision.”

Yuan Feng glanced coldly at Yuan Ji who didn't open his eyes. He had reached this point and still had to choose to be stubborn. It was entirely Yuan Shao's fault. Apart from being older, he didn't have any other abilities. He was not a member of the clan. Unite most because of black sheep like this.

When he was about to retort, Yuan Shao in the audience continued his performance.

Yuan Shao sighed and looked at Yuan Ji, who looked proud, thinking about when he had offended his uncle.

"As my uncle said, for the time being, let's regard those properties as the Yuan family's support for me. My uncle once said that the investment needs to be returned."

"I obtained three carts of money and silk from the Yuan family without any consumption along the way. Today, all the ten carts of supplies I brought back were handed over to the clan to show my status as a descendant of the Yuan family."

The people present looked at the blushing Yuan Ji over there as if they were looking at a clown, wondering how such a person could become the authority in the clan.

I am always much better than what he does.

"Didn't you admit that the Yuan family helped you?" Yuan Ji's face turned red from suppressing his emotions. Even so, he still had no intention of letting Yuan Shao go so easily. As long as there was a chance, he would fight to stop it. This old face created momentum for Yuan Ji.

Yuan Shao smiled mysteriously, but nodded and said: "What my uncle said is absolutely true, it is indeed the clan that supports me." After receiving this answer, Yuan Ji felt as if he had won the battle, and could only dance with joy.

Yuan Shao continued: "Uncle, do you know that when I first became the governor of Liaodong, the mountains were high and far away, which was the Yuan family's support for me. I traveled thousands of miles all the way, so why didn't I directly choose to buy in Liaodong? What about these?”

"It means you think Yuan's support is crucial."

Yuan Shao shook his head and said: "Because this is the greatest help a father can do to his son who is about to travel far away."

"Similarly, this is also the best way for me, as a son, to repay my father who is not worried."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present felt incomprehensible. Looking at Yuan Shao's extremely sincere and pure answer, they felt a sour emotion condense in their hearts.

Among them, Yuan Feng was the most touched. Having been in a high position for a long time, he was used to keeping his emotions and anger hidden. However, when faced with Yuan Shao's impassioned answer, his heart was melted at this moment.

He even ended the seemingly ridiculous discussion on the spot.

No, it will be a unilateral criticism of Yuan Shao.

On the other hand, Yuan Ji put on an indifferent expression, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

Yuan Shao continued: "My uncle is well-informed. He must have known about my night attack on the Xianbei tribe in Liaodong and my deeds of sending people to capture the Xianbei leader."

"I feel that with my achievements like this, even in the camp, my reputation is unmatched by anyone, and even now, people in Youzhou are competing to praise my achievements."

"I think, no matter what, with my current reputation, when I returned to the clan, I should have been welcomed as I should have been, but instead, I was treated in such an unreasonable way by my uncle as soon as I returned to the clan. Cross-examination.”

"To put it bluntly, this is like trying a criminal. Does my uncle think that I should be a criminal, a notorious criminal? Have I done something outrageous?"

"No!" Yuan Shu felt braver this time and walked straight to Yuan Shao's side, glancing at his uncle Yuan Ji aside, his eyes full of disgust.

He did not expect that even he would feel uncomfortable in the face of such an aggressive questioning method, just like he, as a general of the Tiger Guard, was interrogating those who had committed crimes in Luoyang.

But Yuan Shao was able to turn defeat into victory, and even ridiculed him based on his own experiences. In his opinion, this was really satisfying.

If he didn't compete with Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu's character would actually like to be so strong, just like now.

This matter had nothing to do with him. In fact, he could stand aside and sit up high, quietly watching Yuan Shao scold him.

However, after all, Yuan Shao is his brother, and he has returned with a great victory. He should have been welcomed happily by the clan, but in the end he was interrogated like a criminal. Anyone would feel resentful. If this kind of thing happened to him, On the head, I am afraid he will be even more manic than Yuan Shao.

Therefore, Yuan Shu felt that Yuan Shao's final reliance on credit was not at all wrong.

This is the capital of young people. You can’t talk about young people without being young and energetic.

Yuan Feng glared at Yuan Shu pretending to be angry, but his heart was filled with joy.

Yuan Shao has become a talented person, and he can achieve such fame and prestige by fighting alone.

But Yuan Shu has also turned around. He is no longer as arrogant and selfish as before, but has an attitude of brotherly respect and humility.

As for Yuan Ji, let's not discuss it. He is still serving as an official in Luoyang at this time. He doesn't necessarily want to come back in time for this annual meeting.

"I've said it before. Your uncle just wants to ask about your current situation. The words may be a bit fierce. Don't take it to heart." Yuan Feng saw that Yuan Shao had taken the absolute initiative at this time, so he stepped forward to act. Peace is old.

At the same time, he looked at the lifeless Yuan Ji and admonished him: "My brother is now a family plan. I feel very relieved."

Suddenly the conversation changed and he said calmly: "But everything depends on method. For example, your method seems to me not very correct. Otherwise, how could it make Ben Chu feel like an interrogation? From now on, regarding this matter , I hope you won’t mention it again, you and others are all Yuan’s humerus, focusing on one and losing the other is not a long-term solution.”

Perhaps it was the steps given by Yuan Feng, or seeing that there was no chance to criticize Yuan Shao anymore, Yuan Ji hurriedly walked down the steps given by Yuan Feng, not daring to stop at all: "What the master taught me is that I am a bit one-sided." Yeah, don’t think too much about it at first, uncle just thinks that the clan comes first, and never thought that you have encountered so many things in these days, it was uncle who was wrong."

Yuan Shao sneered, and then put on a very sunny smile: "Whatever my uncle said, even if it is wrong, it must be my nephew's fault. How can I say that my uncle is wrong?"
