Hee Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 20
The next morning, Yuan Xi was refreshed and came to the pavilion by the pool where he had breakfast, only to see that Zhen Mi had already come over one step ahead, with a rather ugly expression on his face.

The housekeeper Liu Quan secretly gave Yuan Xi a wink.

Yuan Xi looked at Zhen Mi who was indifferent and completely ignored him, and laughed loudly: "Mi Er, it's so early!"

"It's already high in the sun, is it still early? Husband really enjoyed last night." There was a trace of dissatisfaction in Zhen Mi's eyes.

Yuan Xi smiled awkwardly, waved away the people who were serving him, sat next to Zhen Mi, and said with a gentle face: "Mi Er, don't be angry, no matter what time it is, the most important thing in my husband's heart is always you." , as for Hongxiu, if you really don’t like it, send her back to Zhen’s house.”

A touch of emotion flashed across Zhen Mi's eyes, and then she rolled her eyes, "You've already taken him in, how can you let him go back? I've already asked Mama Zhang to go on. From now on, Hongxiu will be your concubine, and I will arrange for her two maids"

"Haha, Mi Er is really kind-hearted and tolerant." Hearing this, Yuan Xi quickly praised happily. Mi, he can do whatever he wants, but after letting Yuan Xi enjoy it, he naturally feels a little bit reluctant.

"Hmph, I know you are reluctant, let's eat," Zhen Mi said, but she did pour a bowl of rice porridge for Yuan Xi herself.

"Okay, okay" Yuan Xi drank in a big gulp.

"Slow down, don't worry." Zhen Mi said helplessly, she wasn't really angry, a mere concubine is nothing, and Hongxiu was arranged by her, all he needed was Yuan Xi's promise to him.

Yuan Xi nodded, and said softly: "Mi'er, I'm going to the military camp today, and I may not be able to make it back at night, so you will be in charge of the affairs of the mansion."

"I know, you have to be careful outside, and remember to bring Niu'er with you," Zhen Mi immediately said with concern.

"it is good!"

After eating a sumptuous breakfast, Yuan Xi was ready to leave for the barracks. Yuan Ping and Hu Meng had already led the guards of the mansion, waiting for him at the gate.

"Second Brother"

"boy"

Seeing Yuan Xi coming out, the two immediately clasped their fists and shouted. They were wearing thick armor at this time, one was heroic and the other was majestic and mighty.

Yuan Xi nodded, and asked Liu Quan who was following him, "Have all the prepared pork and flour been delivered?"

"It was delivered yesterday, and General Jiao must have received it," Liu Quan replied.

"Okay!" Yuan Xi waved his hand and directly got into a luxurious carriage in front of him. Yuan Ping and Hu Niu'er also climbed onto the horse's back.

"Let's go!" After Yuan Xi gave an order, everyone immediately set off and headed for the barracks.

The barracks of the Tieweiying is located in the northern suburbs of Yecheng, while the Huxiaoying and Xuanjiajun are located in the western and southern suburbs respectively. Their private troops are all stationed outside the city, and only the guards stay in the city to avoid too many troops. Make trouble.

The carriage drove slowly on the driveway, and after exiting the wide city gate, it headed all the way to the military camp in the northern suburbs. Yuan Xi sat in the carriage, flipping through some bamboo slips to pass the time.

After about half a stick of incense, the carriage came to a forested area. Hu Niuer, who was guarding the carriage firmly, suddenly stared into the distance, and said loudly: "Stop!"

"Hu Junhou, what's the matter?" Yuan Ping asked suspiciously.

"There are people coming, and there are many, and there are horses neighing." Hu Niu'er waved his hand with a serious face, and immediately a dozen guards in the mansion immediately formed a circle, guarded the carriage firmly, and pulled out one by one. The weapon at the waist showed a bit of evil spirit on his face.

"Niu'er, what's the matter?" Yuan Xi couldn't help asking when he saw the carriage stop suddenly.

At this time, a huge sound of horseshoes suddenly sounded, shaking the ground. I saw a tall general in black armor, with sharp eyes, and holding a sharp spear, galloping forward with a group of cavalry. Never less than a hundred people.

The black-armored general glanced at the carriage that appeared in front of him, and immediately pulled the horse under his feet, and asked in surprise, "Is this the second son's carriage?"

"Second Brother, it's General Xiaoqi Gao Lan." After Yuan Ping saw it clearly, he quickly said, and at the same time asked the surrounding soldiers to put away their weapons.

"Gao Lan" Yuan Xi's eyes were fixed, Gao Lan, one of the four courtyard pillars in Hebei, quickly put down the bamboo slips, stepped out of the carriage, and looked at the tall man not far ahead.

"The last general, Gao Lan, pay my respects to the Second Young Master." After Gao Lan saw Yuan Xi, he quickly jumped off his horse, rushed to the side of the carriage, and saluted respectfully.

Yuan Xi looked at it slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed across his face.

"Gao Lan, loyalty 59, strength 75, intelligence 71"

What surprised Yuan Xi was not the high statistic of force and intelligence, but his loyalty. This famous Hebei general had a loyalty of 59% to him. None of the values ​​exceed 40.

"General Gao, don't be too polite." Yuan Xi quickly got off the carriage and said with a gentle face.

Gao Lan said gratefully: "Last time I didn't have time to thank the Second Young Master, so I was sent to Wei County. I'm really ashamed."

Yuan Xi was taken aback, he didn't remember the last time.

"You are welcome, General Gao. Didn't you go out with your father?" Yuan Xi didn't ask what happened last time, so as not to reveal anything.

But Gao Lan did have a flash of surprise on his face: "The second son, could it be that he forgot that the last general offended General Yan Liang? If the second son hadn't come forward to speak for me, I would have been sent to prison, so the crusade against Gongsun Zan, the last general failed to attend"

"Oh! So that's how it is." Yuan Xi finally understood, looked at the loyalty value that might break through 60 later, and said with a smile: "General Gao, if you have time, walk with me."

"Yes, Second Young Master," Gao Lan quickly responded.

After the two of them took a few steps, Hu Niu'er hurriedly followed, with a majestic body, a fierce face, and tiger-like eyes, full of a terrifying deterrent force.

"Niu'er, you don't have to follow, I have no worries with General Gao here." Yuan Xi smiled.

At this time, Gao Lan took a closer look at Hu Niu'er, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Although he hadn't fought against him yet, the terrifying aura emanating from the opponent's body still made him clearly feel the extraordinaryness of the opponent.

After hearing this, Hu Niu'er nodded slightly, and stopped in place, keeping his eyes on Yuan Xi.

After Yuan Xi brought Gao Lan to a hillside not far away, he said softly: "General Gao, although you did not participate in the battle of Yijing, father still trusts you, otherwise he would not have arranged you Weijun, monitor Yanzhou and Sidai's movements, and the four continents will be unified. I believe that after a few years, my father will send troops to the south, and then General Gao will be the vanguard general."

Gao Lan suddenly smiled wryly: "I am afraid that the last general will not be so honored to offend General Yan Liang."

"Haha, General Yan Liang is indeed brave and invincible, but there are also times when he makes mistakes, and I always feel that the general has both civil and military skills, and he is not inferior to him," Yuan Xi praised with a smile.

Gao Lan's pupils shrank, and a touch of emotion immediately appeared in his heart, but he still hurriedly said modestly: "Where, where, the second son has won the prize, how can the general compare with General Yan Liang?"

Yuan Xi smiled slightly, and didn't say anything more. After the two chatted for a while, Gao Lan began to prepare to leave. He came back from Wei County this time to welcome the triumphant return of the army, and to report some recent events in Yanzhou. matter.

"General Gao, if you encounter any troubles in the future, please let me know at any time. I am willing to make General Gao as a friend." Yuan Xi suddenly said to Gao Lan who was about to leave.

Gao Lan's face was shocked, his eyes flickered for a while, and he clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Second Young Master, for your appreciation, I will be very grateful in the end."

Yuan Xi nodded with a smile, and when Gao Lan left with the army, Yuan Ping rushed to his side and asked expectantly, "Second brother, how are you?"

"How about what?" Yuan Xi asked.

"Will he follow Second Brother you?" Yuan Ping asked bluntly.

"Haha, he is a majestic general, why should he follow me now?" Yuan Xi laughed loudly, and walked towards the carriage.
