The Yuan Family of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 521
The Guanzhong Rebellion came to an end, and under the leadership of Xia Houyuan, Yuan Shang came to Fanghan.

After the civil strife was resolved, things became even more onerous. Next came a series of aftermaths dedicated to resuming production, reorganizing the military academy, appeasing the defenders everywhere, re-appointing and dismissing officials and generals, promoting rewards and punishments, and so on.

This time, during the chaos in Guanzhong, the population of Guanzhong, which was already withered, has been reduced by nearly [-]%.
And just like the foreword, Zhang Xiu was appointed as the captain of the Qiang guard, and he took on the task of contacting the Qiangs, and thoroughly implemented the policy of Fuhe. Powerful de-escalation.

The next step, the most important thing, is to abolish the army, return the troops to farming, relocate the Qiang people, and enrich domestic demand.

After arriving in Fanghan, Yuan Shang never intervened in these matters. Instead, he waved his hand and handed over the full power to Zhao Yun for overall planning and dispatch. When Zhao Yun asked him why he did this, Yuan Shang had only one sentence to answer.

"You are the governor of Yongliang, don't you care about everything in Guanzhong and wait for me to wipe your ass?"

One sentence was directly silenced by Zhao Yun, who had a thousand words to say.

Very good, the words are not rough, and I can't refute them.

In fact, it was not that Yuan Shang was lazy, but that it took him too much time to calm down all the affairs in Guanzhong, and all the pressure and burdens were concentrated on him alone.If it were someone else, maybe, maybe they would have been crushed by this pressure long ago. Thanks to Yuan Shang's optimistic nature and open-mindedness, he was not tortured to death by these troubles.

A thick-skinned person can live anywhere.

But Erpilian belongs to Erpilian. After all, Yuan Shang is just a young man in his 20s and less than [-] years old. He also needs some relaxing time to relieve his pressure.

After arriving in Fanghan, Yuan Shang locked himself in the camp bedroom without seeing anyone, and slept for several days covered with a big quilt. Now he needs mental relaxation too much.During this period, no one dared to disturb him, or could not bear to disturb him, except for the food deliverer.

It wasn't until the third night that Yuan Shang got up from his sleep. He seemed to have regained some energy, stretched lazily, yawned and shook his head, scratched his head and got up, and yelled directly at the door. said a word.

"Come on!"

A guard's voice came from outside the door: "My lord is awake? What are your orders?"

Yuan Shang thought for a while and said, "Go, get the princess here."

The guard seemed a little curious: "My lord, what did you do with her when you woke up?"

"Get water, wash your feet!"

"........."

I have to admit that since Yuan Shang returned to this era, although he lived a life without worrying about food and clothing, he lost a lot of fun that he could enjoy in his previous life, such as TV, computer, music, etc...

But now, with the appearance of Wang Nu, it seems that Yuan Shang has found the joy of existence in the 21st century.

This fun is pedicure (the kind without big health care).

Having enjoyed Wang Yi's footwork technique again, Yuan Shang felt relieved physically and mentally, and let out a sigh of relief.

"Princess, the technique is getting better and better!"

Hearing the words, Wang Yi raised his head, blinked his blue glasses, and said in surprise, "This servant has only rubbed the feet of the lord twice in total, why does the lord say that my technique is getting better and better?"

Yuan Shang shook his head and said: "I don't know, but I feel that the force on your fingers has obviously increased a lot compared to last time, and the pressure on your fingers is very good, which makes me feel soothed. what did you do?"

Wang Yi shook his head and said, "I didn't do anything, just help the servants pluck the hair of the newly killed pen pig."

Yuan Shang: "......"

After a while, I suddenly heard Yuan Shang say: "Princess, the Song Jian army who slaughtered your people has been eliminated by me, Song Jian himself was also captured alive, and he will die together with other rebels in the future... Wait a few days After seeing the execution, even if you have avenged your blood, I will restore your freedom at that time, and I will give you money. The land in Guanzhong has been prepared to divide the land and hire people according to the political strategy. At that time, I will go to Governor Zhao There is a back door, and you can share a few acres, so you can go home and live a good life."

When Wang Yi heard this, he couldn't help but tremble all over.

Song Jianjun is gone!Song Jian was captured alive...beheaded in half a few days ago...then what happened to her family?

Thinking of this, Wang Yi couldn't help but feel a little excited and flustered, but she was not an ordinary woman after all, so she suppressed the restlessness in her heart, raised her head in confusion and said to Yuan Shang: "Congratulations, my lord, for quelling the civil strife and setting the world, slaves are very lord Feeling happy... besides Song Jian, who else will be cut in half in a few days?"

Yuan Shang touched his chin and counted one by one: "There is Yang Fu, there is Su Ze, there is You Chu..."

Silently recited the names, Wang Yi's beautiful eyebrows could not help but frown slightly.

Among the names of the crowd, Meng Jian and Su Pige were the only ones who couldn't help but make Wang Yi palpitate.

My family should be in the hands of these two people, but no one knows exactly where.

Suddenly, Yuan Shang continued: "As for the culprits Yan Xing and Song Jian are dead, only Su Pige's whereabouts are still unknown! Presumably, he must have gone to the direction of Middle Earth. My spies and scouts have already set up a dense network to track them down. There will be some news in the near future... Princess? Princess, do you want to listen again?"

Wang Yi was startled when he heard the words, recovered from his reverie, nodded quickly and said, "Your servant is listening!"

Yuan Shang smiled helplessly, and said: "It seems that you are quite tired after migrating with the army for several days. Forget it, don't wait here... Pour out the water, let's go, and go shopping with me. The customs here are different from those in Middle Earth, there is no curfew! The night market is very lively, let's go shopping and see if there is anything new."

Wang Yi stood up, leaned over obediently, and replied, "No."

***********************
Sure enough, as Yuan Shang said, there is indeed no curfew in Fanghan, and the vendors in the night market are still crowded, which is very lively.

And because it is located in the extreme western region, there are also exchanges and trade with the countries in the Western Regions. Many novelty silks, utensils, and fruits that have never been seen in China have moved Yuan Shang. Along the way, Yuan Shang has completely become a bumpkin. I bought a lot of bits and pieces, useful and useless things!

This time, Wang Yi knew what Yuan Shang wanted to pull her out. In addition to those guards who were protecting him unhurriedly, Wang Yi also became Yuan Shang's small force for this shopping spree, with all the big and small bags in his hand. , Walking around with Yuan Shangdong, the tired Qianqian's slender waist almost broke.

Tiredness came second. What made Wang Yi feel most helpless was not Yuan Shang's shopping behavior, but his bargaining behavior when shopping!

I don't know how this majestic overlord, General Sima, who is so wealthy, got into the habit of being willing to bargain with those street vendors who sell things, and he kept haggling endlessly. Swear not to give up, must achieve the goal.

"One hundred dollars! One more coin will not do!" Yuan Shang fiercely pointed a finger at a pottery vendor, with a vicious and scary expression.

The peddler felt helpless being forced by Yuan Shang, he sighed, as if he was drowning in the painful struggle.

"150 money...isn't it okay?" I don't know whether it is Yuan Shang's inherent ruffianism or his arrogance is too strong. It seems that the seller owes him money. It's a negotiating tone.

"Don't be so wordy! One price, one hundred dollars! Sell it or not!" Yuan Shang took another step forward, his eyes flashed, and the heat from his mouth almost sprayed on the vendor's face.

The merchant seemed to be in despair, he looked up to the sky and let out a mournful cry, his words seemed to contain endless despondency and bitterness.

"One hundred dollars is one hundred dollars... I'll sell it!"

"Very good!" Yuan Shang nodded, smiled with satisfaction, and changed the subject: "I won't buy it, princess, let's go."

Vendor: "..."

Wang Yi followed behind Yuan Shang with big bags and small bags, looking at him with eyes like looking at a monster.

"It's hard to negotiate the price, but you don't buy it? Are you idle, master, or are you deliberately messing with the seller?"

Yuan Shang smiled slightly, and said: "How can I say shaming? This is just a means of decompression and entertainment for me. The effect is peculiar. After success, I feel refreshed and energetic. Do you want to try it?"

Wang Yi stared at Yuan Shang with a strange expression on his face, and said, "Master, your means of entertainment... is to bicker and bargain with others, and in the end you don't buy anything after negotiating the price... Excuse me, if this is the case, your pressure will be reduced." It’s reduced, and those traders are probably going crazy.”

Yuan Shang smiled lightly and said: "You are serious. How can a person who is just bargaining be so creepy? Is the lord not a human being? The lord can't bargain? Where does the lord go to buy things? You have to be slaughtered by someone's head?...Forget it Let’s not talk about this, I’m a little thirsty after walking, you put your things down, go to a stall to buy some fruit to quench your thirst, take a break and let’s go shopping again.”

Looking at this unreliable master, Wang Yi couldn't help but sighed, shook his head helplessly, put the groceries in his hand on the ground, and then walked to the market to find fruits for Yuan Shang to quench his thirst.

When I came to a large fruit stand, I weighed the kabo melon on the stand, and asked the old fruit seller, "How much is this melon, and how do you sell it?"

The old melon seller had a white beard and wrinkled face. He looked at Wang Yi quietly, and said in a low and hoarse voice.

"It's not expensive. If the girl wants it, this piece of melon can be exchanged for the lives of your family. It's worth it."

When Wang Yi heard this, she couldn't help but tremble all over. She looked up at the old fruit seller in surprise, and the melon in her hand almost fell to the ground.

"Don't move! Be calm! Show off your feet to make your family look good!" The old man yelled at Wang Yi with a hoarse voice, his words were full of violence and viciousness.

At this moment, Wang Yi completely recognized who the old man's voice was.

Subige!
Wang Yi pretended to bow his head to pat melons, but his winking eyes turned wildly, turning over to the old man from time to time, and said, "Are you still alive?"

The old man smiled happily, and said: "I have let Miss Wang down. I have encountered many dangers in half my life. I have seen many difficult things, big and small. It is not so easy to die."

While picking fruits, Wang Yi said in a low voice: "The Song Dynasty is over, and the Northwest has been completely controlled by Yuan Shang. This is also his world, how dare you stay here?"

Su Pige chuckled, and said: "The most dangerous place is the safest place. Yuan Shang thought that I would lurk and flee eastward when the remnants returned, and I would hang around under his nose! This is called darkness under the lamp!"

Wang Yi sighed, and said: "Now that you ask me to kill Yuan Shang again, it doesn't mean anything to you...let my family go."

Su Pige shook his head lightly, and said with a sinister smile: "That's not good, killing Yuan Shang now will not do me any good! But I have nowhere to be valued, although you don't have to help me kill Yuan Shang, but you still have to help me kill Yuan Shang." I will stay by his side to monitor him, and if necessary, you have to help me fight him to the death."

Wang Yi frowned and said, "What else do you want? Although you are an old minister of Song Jian, you are not the mastermind after all. You can just surrender! If you really don't want to, you can go to other forces in the Central Plains. How does this compare to someone surnamed Yuan?"

Su Pige sighed helplessly, and said: "Others can do that, but I can't. Now that things have happened, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. My real name is not Su Pige, and I'm not a Qiang. My real name is Li Ru , you used to be the Lang Zhongling under the account of Dong Xiang, presumably, you should have heard of my name, right?"

Wang Yi opened her mouth in surprise when she heard this, she didn't dare to show it too obviously, and hurriedly picked up a bunch of grapes as a taste, covering her face.

"Li...Li Ru...is the son of the poisonous late emperor..."

"That's right." Li Ruchang sighed, and said: "Based on what I did under Dong Xiang's tent, apart from Song Jian, who completely broke with the Han Dynasty, which of the princes of the Middle Kingdom can easily accommodate me?" I?"

Wang Yi didn't reply when he heard the words, his face flickered from bright to dark, cloudy or sunny.

Li Ru continued sadly: "Before the great turmoil in Guanzhong, the Son of Heaven issued a pardon tactic, and promised that if I could encourage Song Jian to respond to the battle of the princes in the pass and help seize the pass, then he would pardon me for my past felonies... I am also a Han Chinese, so why do I want to live in this bitter cold place in Xizhou for a long time and not be able to return to my homeland... But now everything has come to naught, the emperor has a grudge against me for killing my brother, and now I have no use value, how can he pardon me ?”

Wang Yi's body trembled a little, and he said, "Then what do you want now?"

Li Ru narrowed his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "You are by Yuan Shang's side, first of all, you need to help me figure out, Yuan Shang's attitude towards us, the remnants of the party, is to exterminate them all, or does it have the intention of ordering peace?"

Wang Yi sneered and said, "The former fan still wanted to kill him, but now he wants to join him?"

Li Ru shook his head and said: "The times are different, so you should be flexible. Looking at the princes from all walks of life in the Central Plains, Sun Quan is young and peaceful, and he is not worthy of my refuge. Cao Zhi inherited his father's career, but his heart is pure and kind." , I am afraid it will be difficult to make a big deal, Liu Bei is the clan of the Han Dynasty, so he must never tolerate me, only Yuan Shang is powerful and the number one prince in the world, of course it is the best to join him!"

Speaking of this, Li Ru's tone turned cold, and said: "Your family is still in my hands, you'd better be honest, don't play tricks with me, and let me tell you, don't think you can find you by following me The traces of family members, I have been entrenched here for many years, and my subordinates still have some strength. It is not difficult to hide your family members! If you report me to Yuan Shang, if I lose a finger, your whole family will die , you'd better think carefully before doing things!"

Wang Yi: "..."
