Lu's relatives

Chapter 39 Changes in Ye City

As a big political family with the dazzling halo of four generations and three lords, the Yuan family is known to have disciples and old officials all over the world, and to a large extent controls the right to speak in the local government affairs of the Han Dynasty. It can definitely be called the leading family of the Han Dynasty family.

If you can become the helm of the Yuan family, it means that you will have extremely rich network resources and political resources. In this chaotic era, anyone with vision and opportunities will be fatally attractive .

But becoming the master of this big family is not so easy.What is needed is not only a title, but more importantly, the recognition of Yuan's internal forces.Just like Yuan Shu, although he has always claimed to be the eldest son of the Yuan family and doesn't think much of Yuan Shao, the eldest son, he still has to feel wronged under the halo of Yuan Shao who was chosen by the Yuan family's forces.

Yuan Shao had three sons. The eldest son, Yuan Tan, was strong-tempered, brave and good at fighting, and was loved by the generals of Yuan Shao's army. This time Yuan Shao fought Gongsun Zan, and he accompanied Yuan Shao by his side and made many military exploits.

The second son, Yuan Xi, has a handsome appearance, suave style, and both civil and military skills. He is very favored by the Yuan family, and he also fights fiercely with the big and small families who are close to the Yuan family. This time Yuan Shao is fighting in the front. Yuan Shao was also quite satisfied with the matter of appeasing the big clans in the city and ensuring the smooth flow of Yuan Shao's grain roads with the help of his father.

Only Yuan Shang, who was young and did not make much achievements, was favored by Yuan Shao and the Liu family under the halo of his two outstanding elder brothers, but he wanted to stand out and get the approval of all the forces in the Yuan family , but it is not easy.Now that Yuan Shao is still alive, the military and the aristocratic family have been preempted by two elder brothers, and they have become two of the three major interest groups in the Yuan family. How can Yuan Shang, who also has the qualifications to be the helm of the Yuan family, be in a hurry?
Therefore, how could Yuan Shang not be ecstatic when he heard Qin Xu's false rumor about Xu You's "goodwill".In Yuan Shang's thinking, the military and the aristocratic family have been divided up by the two elder brothers, and only the faction of officials loyal to Yuan Shao remains. It seems that they don't want to get involved too early. Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi tried their best and didn't make these people make a clear statement. .

But now, as one of Yuan Shao's four great counselors, Yuan Shao's friend in need, Xu You, a very firm buddy, spoke up. Although he didn't say it clearly, he meant to support him very clearly. This made Yuan Shang, who was only 15 years old, how could he sit still? live.

Father Yuan Shao was a person whom Yuan Shang admired very much. When Dong Zhuo was in chaos and all the officials lost their voices, Yuan Shao was the only one who scolded Dong Zhuo for leaving for Bohai Sea; What an honor is this?And all of this came from Yuan Shao's status as the speaker of the Yuan family. Now that he is getting closer to this step, how can he not make Yuan Shang extremely excited.

"Third Young Master, there is someone outside the door claiming to be an official of the Hanoi Prefect's Mansion on behalf of Zhang Taishou to pay homage to Third Young Master." When the servant handed the big red greeting card to Yuan Shang, Yuan Shang was still in a dream.

"It's here, is it really here?" Yuan Shang chose to believe Qin Xu's identity because of Xu You's whereabouts. Now that Qin Xu came to visit so soon, Yuan Shang was even more convinced, and quickly said: "Hurry up." Please take a seat in the guest room, um, don't report to Madam for now."

It was also Qin Xu who was so lucky that Yuan Shang originally wanted to explain the situation at the gate of the city to his mother Liu Shi when he came back, but he hesitated when he arrived at the mansion, fearing that his mother Liu Shi, who kept saying that he was too frivolous and impatient, would reprimand him again. Liu was not informed.

Mrs. Liu is Yuan Shao's official wife and also Yuan Shang's biological mother. She has been working hard for Yuan Shang's ascension.But there are two elder brothers of Yuan Shang, and Yuan Shang is usually not very outstanding, so it is inevitable that he will be stricter with Yuan Shang.As a result, Yuan Shang didn't dare to tell Liu Shi about this matter after thinking for a long time before he was sure about Xu You's true intention.

As for Qin Xu's false claim that an official from Zhang Yang's mansion came to visit, Yuan Shang took it for granted that this was Xu You's intention, and was even more sure that Xu You wanted to burn a cold stove before he fully surfaced in Yuan's family, but I don't want to leave anything behind.This is completely in line with Xu You's temperament that Yuan Shang knew.What made Yuan Shang entangled at this time was whether to have a better attitude towards Qin Xu who had a "special mission"?Or more majestic?
Qin Xu, whose pseudonym was Qin Jiu, was finally warmly received by Yuan Shang, the third son of the Yuan family. In a friendly and enthusiastic atmosphere, the two sides put forward their own demands with their own scheming.

The third son Yuan highly praised Xu You's hard work for the future and development of the Yuan family. On behalf of his father Yuan Shao and the vast number of defenders in Yecheng, he expressed his gratitude to Xu You for going to Hanoi alone to negotiate with Zhang Yang, the prefect. Heartfelt compliments.He said that until now he had not received any news that the Black Mountain bandits were approaching Yecheng further, and Yuan Shao, who was rushing back to help, won precious time because the efforts of Xu You, one of the four great counselors in Jizhou, had initially paid off.When Yuan Shao fought back against Heishan, Xu Yougong retreated and returned to Yecheng, Yuan Shang will report that Yuan Shao went out of the city to meet Yunyun himself.

As for why Qin Xu didn't bring anything that could prove Xu You's identity, which Qin Xu made up before he came, before he could say it, Yuan Shang took it with his fiery eyes that I understand, I understand.

Qin Xu was stunned by Yuan Shang's enthusiasm and the super-strong aura of infinite automatic brain filling. Qin Xu expressed his admiration from the bottom of his heart, and repeatedly praised Yuan Shang's "foresight". The fact that Yuan Shang obtained the marriage of flying general Lu Bu made Yuan Shang no longer have the slightest doubt about Qin Xu, and even raised the idea of ​​taking Qin Jiu, an official of the Hanoi prefect's mansion who could be "trusted" by Xu You, for his own use.

"Third Young Master, that Lv Bushi opened his mouth. He is a bit dissatisfied with the betrothal gift that the Lord prepared for the Third Young Master." Qin Xu said to Yuan Shang pretending to be embarrassed when he saw Yuan Shang completely entered the trap.

"I heard that Lu Bu has an extremely unruly temper, why did he agree to Mr. Xu's marriage proposal so readily?" Yuan Shang wondered.It's just the surprise and self-consciousness in the eyes, and it doesn't escape the eyes of Qin Xu, who has the ability to perceive words and emotions through long-term business negotiations in his previous life.

"Young master, that's [-] shi for military rations and [-] horses!" Qin Xu kept smearing Boss Lu against his conscience, saying: "Lu Bu fled Chang'an in a panic. As the adopted son of Dong Zhuo, even though he has made meritorious deeds in condemning Dong, it is not tolerated by the world, and it is so easy for Mr. Yuan to disregard his previous suspicions, and he is also funding food and grass, and being married to his sons and daughters, how can he not be grateful?"

"Then why is he..." Although Yuan Shang was delighted, he was confused by Qin Xu and asked in puzzlement.

"Lv Bu has a very good personal relationship with my lord Zhang Taishou, and he is very favored by the lord in Hanoi, but the third son also knows that Lu Bu's reputation is unparalleled in the world, so he is naturally a person with great face, and he is always supported by my lord. This..." Qin Xu replied.

"Well! It's extremely extreme. Naturally, Lu Bushi's little tiger will not be like this for a long time." Yuan Shang nodded and said with a look of approval, "I don't know what Mr. Ziyuan taught me?"

"This is the bait? It's too unfulfilling." Qin Xu secretly said in his heart, but his face was full of mystery, and he said: "There are so many bandits in Heishan, and it is quite difficult for my prefect Zhang alone. Mr. Xu said, With Lu Bu's help, a mere Black Mountain would be nothing to worry about."

"I know this. Didn't Mr. Ziyuan propose a marriage for my Yuan family like Lu Bu?" Yuan Shang's face flashed with arrogance, and he suddenly said, "Then Lu Bu dislikes the lack of dowry? It is rumored in the world that Lu Bu is greedy for money, and his subordinates are also greedy." You idiot, it really is true. But my father is fighting the old thief Gongsun, and the army is also short of rations. I wonder what Mr. Ziyuan can do?"

"NND! You are the greedy and contemptible generation!" Qin Xu cursed secretly in his heart, and suffered a dark loss for no reason, but he still said with a strong face: "That's true, Mr. Xu also understands that the storage of food in Yecheng is the root of Yuan Gong's attack on Gongsun. Originally, He Chuan's food could also be delivered, but Lu Bu is a very face-saving person, and he has never had much scruples. If this matter spreads and it is said that Yuan Gong has no employment, it will inevitably damage Yuan Gong's reputation..."

"Hmph!" Yuan Shang's face was full of anger, and he said: "This Lu Butu is also hateful, does he have to send troops to solve the matter of Yecheng?"

"Don't disturb the third son!" Qin Xu said: "The reason why Mr. Xu did not reject Lu Bu in this world is also for the sake of the third son."

"What do you mean?" Yuan Shang was confused by Qin Xu's going around, and said: "Mr. Ziyuan is pedantic about heaven and man, and has unparalleled resourcefulness. You just need to tell me what he meant. You don't need to talk about him."

"No!" Qin Xu said with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Mr. Xu said, why don't you create momentum and send three to five hundred soldiers to transport some rations over there, and be the first batch to coax Lu Bu to send troops, and the rest can be Discuss slowly. What do you think of the third son?"

"This..." Yuan Shang didn't expect Qin Xu to say these words, hesitated for a moment, and said: "To tell the truth, Master Qin, Mr. Ziyuan's plan is naturally excellent, but Yecheng is like a city with few soldiers. Send another three to five hundred, then..."

"Wow..." Qin Xu also looked worried about Yuan Shang, and thought for a long time: "Actually, if Mr. Xu's intention was not like this, it would be difficult to convince Lu Bu of Yuan Gong's sincerity. How about sending some farmer servants to pretend to be soldiers? What's more, if there is a real war, these people will be useless except to lower morale."

"It's just..." Yuan Shang was dazzled by Qin Xu, but he still felt a little uneasy, but he couldn't think of anything wrong.

"The third son also knows that Lu Bu is the most powerful general in the world, and he has only one daughter. If he becomes the father-in-law of the third son, he will be reused by Yuan Gong. At that time..." Seeing that Yuan Shang was still hesitant, Qin Xu simply gave it to him. He added fire, not believing that Yuan Shang could not understand the benefits of this.

"Okay! It's not too late. I'll tell my mother, and I'll do it right away." Hearing Qin Xu's words about Yuan Shao's importance, Yuan Shang suddenly remembered the prestige of his elder brother Yuan Tan in the army. If Lu Bu joins in the future, he can replace him. He was very happy in his heart. Lian Dai became more and more pleasing to Qin Xu's eyes, and said: "Master Qin is indeed a loyal and resourceful man, if you are not happy with Zhang Taishou, you can come to my tent at any time."

"Thank you, Third Young Master, for your love!" Qin Xu thanked Yuan Shang with a look of gratitude, and then acted like he suddenly remembered something, and said, "It's just that Mr. Xu still explained, don't talk about the relationship between you two Too many people know, lest..."

"Oh?" After hearing Qin Xu's words, Yuan Shang frowned, and said to himself: "Mr. Xu still has the temperament of keeping things late, afraid that others will accidentally say something wrong after they find out?"

"Qin Jiu!" Yuan Shang pondered for a long time, then raised his head and said to Qin Xu who was waiting beside him, "Since Mr. Xu can send you to meet me, I think you must be someone Ziyuan trusts deeply. The family members stay in Ye City temporarily, and I will send ten personal guards to look after them, and you will take three hundred soldiers and send three hundred stones of food and grass to Hanoi!"

"No!" Qin Xu said with a loyal look, "It's just that Miss Zhang has a bad temper, so please forgive me, my lord. I won't be scolded by Zhang Taishou!"

"Looking at your age, you are similar to me, so why are you still afraid of a woman? Well, after you finish this matter, come to my command." Yuan Shangzhi was satisfied, and said to Qin Xu with a look of great favor "As for this Miss Zhang, since Mr. Ziyuan chose Zhang Taishou's relatives, she is like my sister, so I will persuade him not to embarrass you. Don't worry!"

……

I never heard that Yuan Shang is lustful!What is the meaning behind the words, how does it sound like they are trying to hit "Miss Zhang"?
This is to kill!I hope that girl Lu Lingqi won't be too ruthless.
