The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 119 The Infatuated General

Jizhou, Ye County of Wei County.

Yuan Shao's mansion was festive, decorated with lanterns and festoons, servants and maids were very busy going back and forth.

Yuan Shao, who was wearing a vermilion robe and wearing a sage crown on his head, was wandering around and instructing his servants on some work, with a warm smile on his face.Beside him is a middle-aged man in a golden silk robe, who is Zhen Mi's uncle Zhen Jia.

"Mr. Yuan, do you think you can entrust me with your food supply this year?" Zhen Jia asked with a smile on his face.

Delivering military rations is a hard job, but it is also a good job that can make a steady profit without losing money. Nowadays, wars are frequent, and the head of the Zhen family, a large grain household in Jizhou, has to find ways to maintain his position.

Yuan Shao glanced at Zhen Jia, and said calmly: "Brother Zhen, why should you be in such a hurry, this matter needs to be discussed with you."

Yuan Shao had some disdain for Zhen Jia. A large part of the reason why he agreed to this marriage was originally on the land of Jizhou, and the Zhen family also controlled another important industry: horses.

Cavalry is an indispensable existence in battle. If you want to have a strong cavalry, you must have corresponding good horses, and the Zhen family happens to have a large number of good horses.

Based on this, Yuan Shao agreed to Zhen Jia's marriage. It can be said that this is just a political marriage with different thoughts.

"I've already had people prepare a batch of good horses, and they will be delivered after Zhen Mi gets married." Zhen Jia understood Yuan Shao's words, and immediately leaned forward and said with interest.

"Okay, as soon as the horses arrive, it will be the day when your Zhen family will be responsible for the rations." Yuan Shao clapped his hands in response.

There were bright smiles on the faces of both of them, and each got what they needed, and they would naturally be satisfied.

It's just that Zhen Jia and Yuan Shao are satisfied, but one of the protagonists of this marriage, Zhen Mi, is very dissatisfied.

Uncle doing this is good for the family, but what reason do I have to refuse?Zhen Mi was born in such a big family, so she naturally knew her mission. She didn't think about running away or making trouble like ordinary girls.

Because Zhen Mi understands that if she does that, the entire Zhen family will get into trouble with a big warlord like Yuan Shao, and the Zhen family is likely to face annihilation.

Zhen Mi could only hide the young and tall figure in her heart secretly, and she let the maid dress her up with tears.

However, compared to Zhen Mi, Yuan Xi, the groom of the other protagonist, is very happy. After all, it is very lucky for Yuan Xi to be able to marry a beautiful wife in a political marriage.

Two hours later, Yuan Shao's residence was full of guests and friends, and everyone sat in their seats and looked forward to seeing Zhen Mi, the number one beauty in Jizhou.

Everyone has the love of beauty, and it has been like this throughout the ages.

Yuan Xi was wearing a big red robe, looking at the expressions of the guests happily, he was not without complacency in his heart: I am afraid that the elder brother and the third younger brother will not be able to marry such a beautiful wife.

As the second child, Yuan Xi is neither the eldest son who can directly inherit Yuan Shao nor the most favored Yuan Shang, so he can still be satisfied with himself in marrying a wife.

"This is Mr. Yuan's second son. He really has an extraordinary bearing, but I heard that Mr. Yuan's third son has a paternal demeanor and is deeply loved by Mr. Yuan."

"It's true that the tiger father has no dogs and sons. Mr. Yuan is so heroic, and the three sons are also dragons among men."

Some of the guests were whispering.

"The bride is here!"

"Look, the number one beauty in Jizhou."

"Wow, this appearance is really enough to take a look."

"Don't talk nonsense, this is Yuan Gong's daughter-in-law, be careful."

For a moment, all the guests present stretched their necks and looked towards the door, each of them scrambling to witness Zhen Mi's demeanor.

Yuan Shao, who was sitting in the main seat, frowned slightly when he saw this situation, while Zhen Jia, who was sitting below him, was full of complacency.

Zhen Mi was led towards Yuan Xi by a rich matchmaker. She had no other emotion in her heart except sadness. She couldn't see all the guests, and she couldn't see the groom. She only saw the man who once shot and killed the Xiliang soldier who rescued him. Her East wins.

Is it just history repeating itself?Zhen Mi looked back in despair, but there was no figure behind her.

Accept fate, accept this marriage that benefits the Zhen family.Zhen Mi staggered forward step by step.

Stumbling under her feet, Zhen Mi lost her center of gravity and rushed forward.

Just when the hearts of all the guests were sweating, a vigorous figure flashed out from the side, and stretched out his ape arms to wrap around Zhen Mi's slender waist.

It's him! ?When Zhen Jia saw the young man with his arms around Zhen Mi's waist, he felt a little discouraged.

"Who is this man?"

"It's so kind, you dare to put your arms around Yuan Gong's daughter-in-law."

"I recognize him, he is Dongfang Sheng, the little general of benevolence and righteousness."

Someone among the guests recognized Dongfang Sheng and shouted loudly.

People are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being strong.Wherever you are famous, one or two people will know you. If you do something secret, you can't hide it from others.And if the pig grows stronger, there is only one end: it should be killed and eaten.

Dongfang Sheng put his arms around Zhen Mi in one hand, and held the residual blood in the other. His appearance was extremely chic, causing some maidservants and female guests around him to turn their eyes around him.

"Haha, Dongfang Sheng, the little general of benevolence and righteousness, has the honor to come to Yuan Mou's place today, and Yuan Mou is really grateful." Yuan Shao stood up from his seat, walked in front of Dongfang Sheng and said.

"If you don't want to die and leave quickly, I can pretend nothing happened."

Yuan Shao lowered his voice and said to Dongfang Sheng.

What Yuan Shao cares about is face. He has accumulated fame since he was young so that he can have the opportunity to do something in the future. For the sake of face, at least he will not kill Dongfang Sheng rashly.

But Yuan Xi didn't care about these things, he had rushed to Dongfang Sheng and pointed at Dongfang Sheng and said, "I'm going to kill you today."

Yuan Xi drew a long sword from the waist of the soldier behind him and rushed towards Dongfang Sheng like an angry bull.

"Dongfang Sheng, let me go."

Zhen Mi's words stunned Dongfang Sheng for an instant, and the blood that was originally intended to swing away the long sword in Yuan Xi's hand suddenly fell to the ground powerlessly.

Puchi!

Yuan Xi's long sword cut through Dongfang Sheng's clothes, and drew a bloodstain on Dongfang Sheng's chest.

Zhen Mi took a look at the assembled soldiers and Zhen Jia who was still sitting on her seat with a pale face, gritted her teeth and said to Yuan Xi, "Husband, save me."

"What did you say!?" Dongfang Sheng asked a little voicelessly.

Zhen Mi pushed Dongfang Sheng's arm away, then turned around and threw herself into Yuan Xi's arms, proving her attitude with actions.

"Haha, good! Really good!"

Dongfang Sheng suddenly felt his face wet. He had never felt so sad. It was a feeling of emptiness in his heart, a pain that could not be described in words.
