He looked at Sima Qingyi and said with relief: "I feel relieved when I see my niece is safe."

Sima Qingyi Yingying bowed: "Thank you for your care."

At this time, Yan Liang stepped in from outside and bowed to Yuan Shao: "Prime Minister, the general has checked the bodies of the assassins and found some situations." Then he shouted outside: "Come in!"

Everyone looked at the door, and saw two strong men carrying an assassin's body in and put it in the middle of the hall.

Sima Qingyi's expression changed slightly, and she subconsciously moved behind Zhang Lang. No wonder, as a lady from a wealthy family, how could she stand such a scene?

Yuan Shao glanced at the assassin's body and asked in confusion: "Yan Liang, why did you ask someone to carry a corpse?"

Yan Liang walked to the corpse, squatted down, turned the corpse over, pulled open his clothes, revealing a large piece of shoulders, and a goshawk tattoo immediately caught everyone's eyes.

Yan Liang said: "Although no clues about the identity of these assassins were found, Mo Jiang had seen this tattoo..."

Yuan Shao's eyes lit up and he immediately asked, "Do you know the origin of this tattoo?"

Yan Liang nodded, his eyes fell on the tattoo and said, "My general has killed many powerful men on Dong Zhuo's side. Each of those strong men has such a tattoo on their bodies! This is their unique mark!"

As soon as these words were said, everyone present showed shock. Yuan Tan said with a serious expression: "Is it actually the assassin sent by Dong Zhuo? If so, then these assassins must have followed Li Su into Luoyang!"

Yuan Xi immediately clasped his fists at Yuan Shao and said, "Father, Dong Zhei was trying to reconcile with us on the surface, but in fact he wanted to plot against his father. It was really hateful. I asked for my order to lead the army to arrest Li Su immediately!"

Zhang Lang couldn't help but say, "If you really do this, you will fall into the trap of the real enemy."

Yuan Xi looked at Zhang Lang and said unhappily: "What are you talking about? Now the evidence is conclusive. These assassins were sent by Dong Zhe!"

Zhang Lang was too lazy to get entangled with Yuan Xi and said to Yuan Shao: "Dad, Dong Zhuo is not an idiot. If he really sent someone to assassinate you, how could he let these assassins carry such tattoos that show their identity?

It was like I was afraid that we didn’t know that he did it!”

Yuan Shao frowned and nodded, murmured: "What Mai Er said is so yes! This matter is very strange!..."

Xu You clasped his fists and said, "Prime Minister, what the Fourth Prince said is very true. Dong Zhuo's generation of heroes has a lot of capable people. If Dong Zhuo sent someone to assassinate him, how could he make such a naive mistake?

Furthermore, as far as the current situation is concerned, Dong Zhuo is eager to make peace with us, otherwise their situation will be very difficult. That's why Dong Zhuo wants to make peace with us.

There is no reason for them to launch this attack. Whether it succeeds or fails, it will harm them without any benefit! How could Dong Zhuo do such a stupid thing?"

Mrs. Liu said: "Mr. Ziyuan said urgently. I'm afraid that someone would not want to see us reconcile with Dong Zhuo, so he sent assassin to assassinate his husband to disrupt the situation.

The person behind this scene must also know that this assassination cannot be successful, but his real purpose is not to assassinate his husband, but to provoke the relationship between us and Taishi Dong, so as to reap the benefits of the fisherman!"

Yuan Shao sneered: "In this way, I have roughly guessed who sent the assassin. Since that's the case, I must not let him do it!"

He glanced at everyone and said, "This matter has ended here. No one can spread the matter here, otherwise I will punish you severely. Well, I will go down and rest for a night. Buy me, and you can send your niece in Qingyi back."

When he said the last sentence, Yuan Shao's face showed a warm smile unique to his elders.

Zhang Lang clasped his fists and said, "Yes."

Zhang Lang led his subordinates and Sima Qingyi to come out together. Zhang Lang glanced at Sima Qingyi and saw that she was lowering her head, as if she was absent-minded.

Zhang Lang felt it was embarrassing to stay with this woman, so he said to Yan Lan: "Yan Lan, you can take a few people to escort Miss Qingyi back."

Yan Lan held her fists and agreed.

Sima Qingyi came to her senses and suddenly said angrily: "I don't need anyone to escort me! Humph!" Then she turned her head and walked towards her home.

Yan Lan looked at Zhang Lang and waited for Zhang Lang's fate. Zhang Lang smiled bitterly and shook his head, "These ladies are really hard to serve, and they have lost their temper for no reason!" Then he said to Yan Lan: "Go."

Yan Lan held her fists and agreed, and greeted several powerful Phobos to follow.

Zhang Lang shook his head and led the others home.

At this time, in the hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Mrs. Liu said to Yuan Shao: "Husband, since someone wants to drag his husband back, the husband should take action immediately."

Yuan Shao nodded and said, "I plan so too. The Spring Festival is over, so it's not too late. Everything is ready anyway, so let's march in the future!" Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "Husband is wise!"

Yuan Shao thought for a while and said to Xu You: "Ziyuan, go and invite Li Su to me. I want to have a good talk with him."

Zhang Lang returned home, soothed Feixu and Xiaodoudou, who were a little uneasy, and then took a shower and went to bed.

Two days later, Yuan Shao led a large army to leave Luoyang and head towards Jizhou. At the same time, Yuan Xi, as a host, followed Li Su west to Chang'an, while Zhang Lang led his subordinates to leave his mansion in Luoyang and return to Taiyuan.

The Spring Festival has passed, and even greater disputes in the world seem to be brewing.

Zhang Lang and his party were walking on the official road to Taiyuan. Although the sun was hanging in the sky, the sky and the earth were still white. From a distance, Zhang Lang and others were walking on the official road were like earthworms crawling on a white background.

The group walked day and stayed overnight, and finally arrived in Taiyuan seven days later.

The old man with white hair and strong hair in the team looked at the majestic city standing between mountains and rivers in front of him, and said with infinite emotion: "Taiyuan, I've been away for a long time!"

The old man, named Yuan Cheng, is Yuan Shao's uncle, Zhang Lang's uncle. This time he followed Zhang Lang and his party to Taiyuan, preparing to host Zhang Lang's marriage on behalf of Yuan Shao.

Because Yuan Shao had arranged a marriage for Zhang Lang, Zhang Lang would marry the Huns' saint soon.

Of course, this marriage is just a political marriage, and Zhang Lang is not rejected. In his thoughts, since he is in this position, he naturally needs to give up some things and take some responsibilities.

Some wealthy families always say with a melancholy look on their faces and they can't help but feel that the marriage arranged by the family is oppression of themselves and is very resistant, as if the only one in the world is the saddest and most unfortunate.
