When the splintered sawdust flew in all directions and hit Yuan Xi on the face, he suddenly realized that Lu Lingqi looked delicate and frail, but was actually very powerful. She had obviously been trained!
I really enjoyed the spray, but the price was that the opponent's defense was broken.
He quickly rolled around on the ground several times, trying to escape, but Lu Lingqi refused to let go, stepped up to him, and punched him again.
Wu Zhao and Du Shi were both shocked. They didn't expect that the two of them would suddenly start fighting, but the opponent was Lu Bu's daughter. The two weak women had never seen such a fight that broke the wall with one punch, and their minds went blank for a moment.
Yuan Xi saw that Lu Lingqi's attack was neither light nor heavy, and that the training on the battlefield was effective at the critical moment. He suddenly jumped to the ground, grabbed Lu Lingqi's ankle with his hand, and then pulled hard.
Lu Lingqi's steps were very steady. She only swayed a few times but did not fall down.
When she saw Yuan Xi lying on the ground, his hands touching her ankles, she couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry. She raised her other foot and stepped hard on Yuan Xi's head.
This was the moment Yuan Xi was waiting for. Lu Lingqi had obviously practiced martial arts, and it was difficult to find flaws when standing, but she didn't have much experience in dealing with someone like him lying on the ground.
As soon as it was too late, Yuan Xi stretched out another hand, grabbed Lu Lingqi's ankles with both hands, twisted her body, and took advantage of the situation to roll.
With the force of rolling, Lu Lingqi finally lost her balance, screamed, and fell backwards.
Yuan Xi was relieved when he saw Lu Lingqi fall down, but he didn't expect that Lu Lingqi became more and more angry, lying on the ground and kicked Yuan Xi's door hard.
Yuan Xi quickly raised his arm to block it. It felt like a sledgehammer hitting his arm, which was heartbreakingly painful.
Lu Lingqi took advantage of the situation and kicked her feet wildly. Yuan Xi felt that the force was so powerful that he was unprepared and was kicked in the forehead. His mind became dizzy.
Now he was getting angry, and he didn't know what he was thinking. He twisted Lu Lingqi's leg with one hand, pulled off Lu Lingqi's socks with the other hand, and tickled the soles of Lu Lingqi's feet.
Lu Lingqi had never seen such a dirty trick before. She shrunk immediately and lost her strength. Yuan Xi took the opportunity to press forward, rolled her around on the ground several times, and pinned Lu Lingqi's thigh joint.
He pressed on Lu Lingqi and shouted: "Stop it quickly! Don't mess around!"
Lu Lingqi was pinned down by Yuan Xizai. After struggling for a few times, she couldn't move. Her joints became more and more painful, and she hit the floor in pain. She said angrily: "You are despicable and shameless!"
"Let me go!"
Yuan Xi didn't expect this sleeping technique to be so effective, and said proudly: "You admit defeat first!"
Lu Lingqi gritted her teeth, feeling a terrible pain in her thighs. She was so angry and angry that she couldn't help but scream, and was about to cry.
Only then did Yuan Xi realize that he had gone too far, and quickly stood up and retreated to Wu Zhao's side.
Lu Lingqi got up from the ground, her nose twitched a few times, she suppressed tears and stamped her feet, whimpering and rushed out the door, running without a trace.
Du Shi stared at this scene dumbfounded, her head felt dizzy. Was something serious going on?
Will there be chaos in the house soon, and a bunch of soldiers will rush in and arrest people like myself?
The three of them stood there blankly for an unknown amount of time. The house was still quiet, as if nothing had happened.
The three of them felt a little relieved, and Wu Zhao thought to himself that this was really a good show.
Du's face was pale. Now that she knew that Lu Lingqi had tricked her, she had no intention of staying any longer, so she hurriedly said goodbye and left.
Yuan Xi and Wu Zhao looked at each other, and finally Yuan Xi choked out a sentence.
"How about we leave overnight?"
The noisy wind blew all night long, and the two of them hugged each other in fear, shivering, and spent the night under the quilt. In the end, no wolf-like swordsman and axe-hand rushed in.
Yuan Xi waited for daylight to come and bid farewell to Lü Bu. Lü Bu, who had no idea what was going on, saw that Yuan Xi was determined to leave and was unwilling to force him to stay. He immediately arranged for Qin Yilu to send Yuan Xi out of the city.
Until the carriage left the city, Yuan Xi and Wu Zhao felt like they were surviving the disaster.
Yuan Xi made up his mind that he would never come to Puyang City again. If Lu Lingqi revealed the matter in the future, wouldn't he be torn apart by Lu Bu?
Seeing the carriage leaving Puyang City more than ten miles away, Yuan Xi's heart tightened when he heard a knock on the window. He opened the curtain and saw Qin Yilu standing outside the window with a embarrassed look on his face. Lu Bujun's soldiers were all staying far away.
at.
Yuan Xi was stunned and said: "General Qin, what do you think?"
Qin Yilu hesitated for a moment, then clasped his fists and said, "I will send you here."
"The general is incompetent, please give me some guidance."
Seeing Qin Yilu's hesitant expression, Yuan Xi thought for a moment and then suddenly realized: "General Qin is still worried about his wife's affairs?"
Qin Yilu gritted his teeth and said, "That's natural. How can I let my wife show up in public?"
Yuan Xi said: "Then why didn't the general reject Marquis Wen directly?"
Qin Yilu said: "What can we do? What if Marquis Wen blames me and expresses his anger on me?"
Yuan Xi thought to himself, "Mom, your own wife is silent, but you want me to think of a solution?"
He pondered for a moment, "The general wants to take his wife with him to find a way to survive?"
Qin Yilu shook his head and said: "I can't control her. Who knows if she is hooking up with others? I only find a way for myself."
As soon as these words came out, Wu Zhao was so angry that his blood surged up.
He pushed his wife out to accompany him for drinks, but in the end he still thought it was Du's fault!
Yuan Xi sighed: "What if the general leaves, what will your wife do?"
Qin Yilu said: "When disaster strikes, we all fly away. It will be good if I can save my life by then. How can I control so much."
Yuan Xi was speechless. Mrs. Du still had the status of Mrs. Qin Yilu. If Qin Yilu left, wouldn't she be like a sheep among wolves?
Yuan Xi thought for a while and said: "General, there are indeed several ways to go."
"But I'm observing the stars. If the general doesn't arrange a way out for his wife, I'm afraid it will bring disaster to himself."
When Qin Yilu heard that he had a way out, he was overjoyed. He didn't care about the Du family. He immediately responded casually: "No problem, I just want sir to give me some advice!"
Yuan Xi could only say: "The way for a general to survive is to go south. If there is an opportunity, I will send him an envoy."
After hearing this, Qin Yilu seemed to understand but wanted to ask again, but Yuan Xi waved his hand and said, "That's it for now. General, please remember to treat your wife well and arrange her properly."
He sighed in his heart, in troubled times, he couldn't be perfect, after all, he was just an ordinary person.
Qin Yilu agreed and saw Yuan Xi's carriage gradually disappearing.
Wu Zhao said softly: "General Qin obviously didn't listen to what the young master said. I'm afraid that Mrs. Du will be in a worrying situation."
Yuan Xi nodded, then shook his head: "I can only bet that he still has some conscience in his heart."
"After I go back, when the two sides start fighting, I will probably have to go to Cidong County again."
Wu Zhao knew that Yuan Xi's plan was to encourage Lu Bu to attack Cao Cao, and asked, "Cao Cao is really that difficult to deal with?"
"He studied under my father. I was still young at that time, so I thought his behavior was a bit reckless, but I didn't think it was that scary."
Yuan Xi sighed: "People will change."
"Put me in his environment, and I'm not as good as him."
"What was he like when he was young?"
Wu Zhao thought for a while and recalled: "That was more than ten years ago. He and his father often argued. He wrote good poems, but his behavior was a bit strange."
A gust of cold wind blew, overwhelming the words in Wu Zhao's mouth, sweeping across the vast land and rising into the sky, piercing the sky, and snowflakes poured down.
When Yuan Xi returned to Wei County, changed into hunting attire outside Yecheng, and pretended to enter the city, news of the renewed war in Yanzhou came.
This time Lu Bu's army seemed to be going all out to fight, bringing enough food, grass, troops and horses. They were involved in several battles around Juancheng, and both sides suffered heavy losses.
Inside the Juancheng mansion, Cao Cao sat at the top, and two groups of people at the bottom sat facing each other, one row of counselors and one row of generals.
The top counselor was Xi Zhicai. Just as he was about to speak, he coughed violently. He quickly covered it with his sleeves. After a while, the coughing subsided, and he put down his sleeves.
Those with sharp eyes had already seen some blood stains on Xi Zhicai's sleeves.
Xi Zhi took a breath and said, "Our army is going to run out of food."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall became even more tense.
The two sides fought for three months. The level of counselors and generals on Cao Cao's side was obviously higher. By surrounding and attacking several cities of Lu Bu, encircling the points and calling for reinforcements, Cao Cao once pushed Lu Bu's army back to Chenliu County.
I thought that Lu Bu's army had experienced several major defeats and would definitely stop fighting before the New Year. However, I didn't expect that Lu Bu would ignore the cold weather and launch a large-scale attack again!
This attack was completely beyond the expectations of Cao Cao's counselors, and the area around Juancheng suddenly fell into an extremely unfavorable situation.
At this time, Cheng Yu said slowly: "How about I go back to Dong'a again?"
Everyone's mouths were bitter, and Xun Yu said: "Zhongde, this method is too harmful to Yin De, so we can't use it anymore."
Cheng Yu said in a deep voice: "As long as I can share the worries of Duke Ming, I can't care about so much."
Cao Cao let out a long sigh and was about to speak when Xi Zhi said decisively: "This is an act of killing the goose to get the egg. If things continue like this, it will be hard to unite people's hearts."
"Now Yuan Benchu has received another letter, saying that he can send us three thousand soldiers and horses and five thousand shi of food."
Cheng Yu snorted coldly: "Should we let Duke Ming send his family to Yecheng?"
"Isn't this just a mercenary?"
Xi Zhicai spoke up and said: "They say that Duke Ming's legitimate wife and legitimate son do not need to be given away, as long as half of the family members are given away."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was immediately moved.
Cao Ren shouted: "No, if you do this, Duke Ming will be humiliated. How can we, our subordinates, show our faces to others?"
Xun Yu sighed: "Can a general conjure grain?"
Cao Ren choked.
Cao Cao said solemnly: "I have made up my mind and accept the original conditions."
After hearing this, everyone bowed down one after another and said they were ashamed.
Xia Houyuan frowned and said: "Although we are half of the family, if we are used as a threat, wouldn't we be in a passive position?"
Xi Zhicai said: "That's true, so we can try to send concubines, concubines, and concubines as much as possible, but they can't be all insignificant people, so as not to be used by Jizhou to make fun of our sincerity."
Cao Hong carefully laid out the cases on the table, "The Yuan family is really shrewd in their calculations. I didn't know it was the counselor who came up with such a vicious idea!"
Xun Yu said calmly: "I know this."
When everyone heard this, they thought: Tian Feng or Ju Sue?
These two people are highly suspicious, as they are staunch anti-Cao faction among the nobles under Yuan Shao.
As a result, Xun Yu said slowly: "It's Yuan Xi, Yuan Xianyi, the second son of Yuan Benchu."
As soon as these words came out, Xia Houyuan lost his voice and said: "Is he the one who rescued Taigong Cao in Fei County?"
Xi Zhicai had a solemn look on his face: "This boy is unusual. Every move he makes is to stumbling upon my Cao family. It is said that he is the one sent by Yecheng to negotiate with us this time."
Cao Chun shouted: "Just find an opportunity to hack him to death!"
Cao Cao glared at Cao Chun, and Cao Chun quickly shut up.
Cao Cao said: "It is not what I, Cao Mengde, did to make my family members hostages!"
The generals of the Cao family heard this and were about to applaud when they heard Cao Cao sigh: "But Juancheng may be destroyed at any time, and the lives of the family members left behind will be in danger. On the contrary, Yecheng will be safer."
"Since my father has an old relationship with Yuan Xi, I will definitely not be embarrassed by him. I am going to let my father take some of his family members to take refuge in Yecheng."
"Of course not as hostages, but as a delaying tactic to save the lives of my Cao family members."
"Yecheng is much safer than Juancheng. This can be considered as my filial piety towards my father."
