Hee Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 10 Refusal to Give Gold

Chapter 10 Refusal to Give Gold
As night fell, the world was pitch-black. In a simple and elegant study room in Zhen's mansion, under the lighting of oil lamps, Zhen Shu and Zhen Yan were talking in a low voice.

"Uncle, what is the purpose of Second Young Master's sudden arrival today and asking me to go to his iron guard camp?" Zhen Yan asked with a slight frown.

Zhen Shu didn't answer directly, instead he smiled lightly and asked, "What do you think?"

"My nephew thinks that the second son's move is not simple, and there is a big gap between the mediocrity and inaction in the rumors." Zhen Yan said with a serious expression.

Zhen Shu nodded and said appreciatively: "You are right. Although the Second Young Master didn't say anything today, he just wanted to accept our Zhen family for his own use."

Zhen Yan shrank his pupils, and asked in surprise, "Could it be that he also wants to compete for that position?"

"It's possible, so he urgently needs the financial resources of our Zhen family." Zhen Shu's face became more serious.

"Confused, really confused, although he is the son of a legitimate son, compared with the power of Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan, he is far behind, and Yuan Gong doesn't pay much attention to him." Zhen Yan looked worried, after all, his sister married Yuan Tan Xi, if something happens to Yuan Xi, my sister will become a widow.

"Don't be confused, let's not talk about it for now, but today, I feel that he is much stronger than Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan." Zhen Shu suddenly became serious.

"Which point?" Zhen Yan was a little surprised.

"Calm down, he's too calm. Duke Yuan is about to unify the four continents and become the number one prince in the world. It can be said that many people now think that the future world must belong to the Yuan family. Even if he can't become a prince in the future, he will be a prince at the very least. , but do you think he has a little joy?" Zhen Shu's tone was tinged with surprise.

After Zhen Yan thought for a while, she shook her head, "That's not true, he looks very calm."

"That's right! I met Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan a few days ago. Although they concealed it very well, the aura of dominance in their eyes became stronger and stronger. They even openly said that Prime Minister Cao of Xudu is now They were nothing more than their father's servants when they were young, and they were born in a despicable way, so they should bow their heads to their Yuan family." Speaking of this, Zhen Shu's tone became more serious, "Yan'er, a person who can hold the emperor to make the princes, is actually treated like this by them." Contemptuous, Wei Bo is worried that if Yuan Gong is not around, they will probably suffer a big loss."

Zhen Yan couldn't help raising her brows, and said softly: "This is indeed a bit inappropriate, but although Cao Mengde is good, how can he be the opponent of Yuan Gong who owns four continents? Once Yuan Gong sends troops, he will definitely lose."

"That's what I said, but after all, the world is not yet unified." Zhen Shu also felt that Yuan Shao would not be able to lose, but he was always a little uneasy.

"Is the nephew going or not?" Zhen Yan was a little confused.

Zhen Shu shook his head, "I don't want it for the time being. If he really has that kind of thought, it's really dangerous. We need to take a look. But after all, he is the son of the Yuan family, the husband of Mi Er, and the son-in-law of my Zhen family. We can't help others, we have to do our best to help. Starting today, we will offer ten thousand gold every year. This will not only show our intentions, but also will not arouse the suspicion of other people. If he can really rush out, you are in the past, my Zhen family I will do my best to help. His last sentence of "Scholar, Farmer, Industry and Commerce" is to remind me that no matter how big the business is, my Zhen family will not be able to enter the upper class, and I will still be a lowly businessman in the eyes of the gentry."

Zhen Yan nodded, "Okay! I will listen to my uncle."

While Zhen Shu and Zhen Yan were talking about Yuan Xi in detail, in a luxurious bedroom far away, Zhen Mi was also asking how Yuan Xi was doing.

"Husband, how are you?" Zhen Mi asked with concern.

Yuan Xi smiled, and said softly: "Uncle is very shrewd and sophisticated, no wonder he can take the Zhen family's business to such an extent. I tested it a little today, and he should have guessed it. As for the result, it depends on God's will. I'm not sure about my husband."

"Then I'll go find my uncle right away." Upon hearing this, Zhen Mi immediately became anxious.

Yuan Xi hurriedly pulled her back, and persuaded softly: "Mi'er, some things cannot be forced, you have to do it step by step, your husband is not a self-made tyrant, there is still time, there is no need to be so anxious, give uncle some time to think about it"

Hearing this, Zhen Mi couldn't help but sighed, and then asked with concern: "Husband, what do you think of my eldest brother?"

Yuan Xi was taken aback, and smiled: "That's right, although my vision and experience are still a bit poor, I'm still a county guard."

"Cai Sheriff!" Zhen Mi pouted in dissatisfaction, with a very unhappy expression.

"Haha, of course, if Mi'er is considered, he can be a Marquis." Yuan Xi hurriedly put his arms around Zhen Mi, and comforted him with a smile. Talent, although this intelligence value will increase with one's own experience, but the speed is too slow. Now that the troubled times are coming, Yuan Xi has no time to cultivate patiently.

When Zhen Mi heard this, she immediately showed a happy smile, looked up at Yuan Xi and said, "The husband must give my brother the position of Lord Marquis in the future."

"Of course, but how will Madam repay me?" Yuan Xi looked at that pure and beautiful face, a gleam of fire flashed in his eyes.

Zhen Mi's face turned red immediately, Yuan Xi laughed heartily, picked up Zhen Mi, and walked towards the bed not far away, naturally another night of boundless beauty.

The next morning, Zhen Mi was called away by the maid, saying that Zhen Shu had some family matters to tell her. Seeing this scene, Yuan Xi knew that Zhen Shu was not willing to submit to him for the time being, but he was afraid of hurting the face of both parties. So it's best for Mi Er to tell him.

Sure enough, when Zhen Mi came back, she looked a little ugly and ashamed.

Yuan Xi took her little hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, have you forgotten what you said about being a husband? We rely on ourselves"

"I'm sorry, husband, uncle is only willing to provide [-] gold per year, and he doesn't want to let eldest brother go to the Iron Guard Camp." Zhen Mi bowed her head and apologized.

"Ten thousand gold" Yuan Xi's eyes flashed. The money of the Three Kingdoms is mainly five baht coins and gold. One gold is about 220 yuan. Now the price of rice is about 120 yuan per dendrobium, and one dendrobium is [-] catties, which is enough for one person. For a month and a half, [-] gold can fully support him to feed an army of tens of thousands of people.

"Mi'er, this is a good thing! We can't be too greedy. Uncle has to think about the entire Zhen family. I'm too weak now. It's normal for him to have worries. With this annual million gold, it's already a surprise." "Yuan Xi said happily, as for Zhen Yan, he doesn't really need it now, and it's not Kong Ming, Guo Jiana and other shocking talents.

"Husband, you really think so, you really don't blame uncle." Hearing this, Zhen Mi raised her head and asked expectantly.

"Of course, to be honest, even if my uncle doesn't give me ten thousand gold, I won't bear any grudges against the Zhen family with you, Mi'er," Yuan Xi comforted.

"Thank you husband." Zhen Mi was immediately moved. .

After breakfast, Yuan Xi took Zhen Mi into the carriage, left Zhen's mansion, and headed back home.

Looking at the gradually disappearing carriage, Zhen Yan said worriedly: "Second Young Master won't be angry, will he?"

"No, as long as Mi'er is around, he will never anger our Zhen family because of this matter." Zhen Shu stroked his beard and said confidently.

"To be honest, Second Young Master has a really good temper. During breakfast, I was a little embarrassed, but he really had a smile on his face," Zhen Yan said in admiration.

Zhen Shu frowned instantly, and after gently waving away the other people around him, he warned with a serious face: "Yan'er, if you think this way, you're making a big mistake, people with great ambitions don't have a good temper. Or not, it can only be said that this incident is far from touching his bottom line. If it does touch his bottom line, let alone you, even Mi Er will not have a good result. You are too young and have insufficient experience. Like this morning, you lost your sense of proportion and left a bad impression on the second son. You have to remember to stay calm at all times, whether it is officialdom or business, understand? ?”

Zhen Yan's face turned pale, and she quickly felt ashamed: "Uncle is right, my nephew will definitely improve in the future."

"This year's [-] gold will be sent over immediately, and you will arrange it yourself," Zhen Shu ordered.

"No!" Zhen Yan responded.

After Yuan Xi's carriage left Zhen's mansion, it drove slowly on the driveway. After walking for about half a stick of incense, suddenly there was a sound of hurried horseshoes, as if tens of thousands of horses were galloping. After the terrified shouts, a voice with boundless arrogance that seemed to despise everything in the world came into the car curtain.

"Second brother, are you there?"

"Yes, Yuan Shang" Zhen Mi said in surprise after hearing this.

Yuan Xi's eyes were fixed, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he showed a smile. He opened the curtain of the car and walked out slowly.

 Two more shots, I have the world, where is the recommendation ticket? ?
