In Donghai County, Xuzhou, when Mi Zhen saw Mi Fang coming back, she looked angry and asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"
Mi Fang looked very unhappy and said, "Yuan Tan is simply bullying others!"
"He attacked Taishan bandits in Langya County, but his subordinates often came to Donghai County to plunder, and many of our caravan's goods were robbed by them!"
"Unfortunately, he is now said to have hundreds of thousands of troops, and he is becoming more and more domineering. Not to mention us, I am afraid that the emperor will not take him seriously at all!"
"I asked for a talk several times, but he ignored me all the time. It was simply too much of a lie!"
Mi Zhen heard this and said: "The Yuan family is so powerful, how can we hide away if we can't afford to offend him?"
“In the future, won’t goods just go by sea?”
Mi Fang shook her head and said: "I heard that Yuan Tan is also building ships. He has no trade routes. Isn't this ship built for robbery?"
"I'm afraid the sea will no longer be safe in the future."
Mi Zhen was speechless after hearing this, thinking that Mr. Yuan Tan was really overbearing in his behavior.
Mi Fang shook her head and sighed: "It's a pity. If my younger sister had married that Yuan Xi, she and the Yuan family would have been part of the same family, and it would have been easier to talk..."
He realized that he had made a mistake and quickly closed his mouth.
Mi Zhen didn't know why, but she felt a little sour in her heart, and said loudly: "Brother, I'm overthinking, I'm afraid that people don't like me at all."
After hearing this, Mi Fang muttered: "Little sister, why should you belittle yourself? Although she may be a little worse than Mrs. Zhen, there is no man who doesn't like the new and hates the old..."
After hearing this, Mi Zhen felt even more unhappy. She sent Mi Fang away and went back to the small building to sit in front of the window, looking out at the vast sea. She felt a little depressed, thinking that she had just missed it.
In the military camp outside Huai City, Zhao Yun said to Jushu: "Sir, have we been delayed here a little too long?"
"Marquis Wen said that in order to celebrate Yuan and Lu's alliance, and to thank his family for being rescued, he planned to entertain us and hold wine for three days."
"There are always variables in Anyi. Isn't this a matter of indifference?"
After hearing this, Jushou sighed: "That's true, we shouldn't delay it any longer."
"I'm going to the city tonight to have a good talk with Marquis Wen."
"At that time, I will state my interests and persuade Marquis Wen to send troops to Anyi, Hedong as soon as possible."
Zhao Yun heard this and said worriedly: "Something happened in the city just now. Please pay attention to your safety, sir."
After hearing this, Jushou nodded and said: "I understand, but it stands to reason that after something happens, Marquis Wen will definitely step up his guard. It should be difficult for people with evil intentions to find opportunities."
"But if anything happens, please ask Zilong to take charge of the overall situation."
After Zhao Yun heard this, he cupped his hands and said, "Yun understands, sir, please be careful."
He felt vaguely and uneasy in his heart.
Will the people behind the scenes really let it go?
In Lu Bu's mansion, Lu Lingqi walked into Qu Yi's house carrying a wooden tray with a bowl of thick soup on it.
Qu Yi saw him on the bed, sat up reluctantly, and said with a smile: "It's not like your apprentice was in vain, you still want to be a teacher."
"But your injury is not healed, so you'd better move less, lest the old injury relapses and Marquis Wen blames me again."
Seeing that Qu Yi looked good, Lu Lingqi felt relieved a little and said, "My father is serving wine tonight and said he wanted to thank the envoy sent by Youzhou and Master for saving his life."
"The servants were all busy preparing food and drinks. The house was very busy, so I brought the medicine over."
Qu Yi took the medicine bowl and swallowed it in several big mouthfuls. It felt quite bitter. He picked up the wine bottle next to him and took a big gulp of wine.
Lu Lingqi was a little distracted and said to Qu Yi: "Master, how long have you been a guard under Yinhu?"
"What kind of person is he?"
Qu Yi was startled, wondering why he asked this question so cluelessly?
He was afraid of creating unnecessary details, so he could only hesitate and said: "I don't know what kind of person he is. Maybe he is a good person?"
Lu Lingqi thought of what Yinhu did last time and couldn't help but feel resentful. Is this a good person?
She snorted: "The woman who came at that time was his wife?"
"Why is it disfigured?"
"Then Yinhu and his wife must have some stories, right?"
Qu Yi thought to himself that this should be about Cai Zhaoji. Almost two years have passed in the past, and the marks on Cai Zhaoji's face have almost disappeared, but how can he explain this to Lu Lingqi?
He shook his head and said: "I don't like to ask other people's personal matters, but you, why do you care about Yinhu?"
Lu Lingqi said angrily: "Who cares about him anymore!"
"I just thought that even Master can serve him. It seems that Hidden Tiger is not completely without merit?"
Qu Yi understood the meaning of Lu Lingqi's words and said with a smile: "You are very prejudiced against him. Why did he offend you?"
Lu Lingqi said angrily: "I have killed people now. If he dares to provoke me again, I will blow his head with a halberd!"
Qu Yi took another sip of wine and said with a smile: "Why do I think things are not that simple?"
Lu Lingqi blushed and stamped her feet, "Master is making fun of me again, stop talking!"
"My father said we would have wine tonight, so Master must go!"
After saying that, she took the wooden plate and ran away.
When Qu Yi saw Lu Lingqi going out, he thought to himself that this girl had a cheerful temperament, not at all like Lu Bu's irritable temperament.
Lu Bu is so out of touch with his work, and why is he serving wine? Shouldn't he conduct a thorough investigation of the whole city at this time?
Qu Yi shook his head, feeling that his body could not support him, and he lay down slumped. Just now he pretended to be fine in front of Lu Lingqi, but in fact he could hardly sit still.
After drinking tonight, it's time for me to say goodbye and go back.
Calculating this body, it can support it for another ten days and a half, right?
Can you return to Beixin City in such a short time?
Qu Yi suddenly woke up, why was he so determined to return to Beixin City?
Logically speaking, there is no one he cares about in Beixin City, right?
He was suddenly startled, and then laughed to himself.
People are going to die, and they still think about something they have and don’t have.
The news that Lu Bu was hosting a banquet at home reached the ears of all the generals. Everyone had their own thoughts, but they did not dare to refuse.
Yang Chou said to Lu Bu respectfully: "Marquis Wen, I will be on my way tomorrow. I am afraid that things will go wrong, so I will not attend the banquet."
"Leave it to me to patrol the city tonight."
After hearing this, Lu Bu smiled and said: "The general is indeed unparalleled in his loyalty and loyalty. Zhang Yang is lucky to have a general to help him."
"When the general comes back from Hanoi, Bu Zai will serve wine alone to entertain the general!"
Yang Chou came out of Lu Bu's house and sneered in his heart, it was not certain whether Lu Bu could survive tonight!
Someone from Yuan Shu should be making trouble tonight, but Yang Chou doesn't know who it is.
The great thing about Cao Cao's strategy is that the people involved in it are unaware of each other. What Yang Chou has to do is to open the city gate while patrolling the city and cooperate with those with ulterior motives to launch an attack.
Of course, when the city was in chaos and there was no distinction between friend and foe, he could not stay in the city in order to avoid being accidentally killed and died in the chaos.
Yang Chou also felt a little resentful in his heart. The Cao family kept everything from him. What if the general of Cao's army decided to kill the donkey and killed him conveniently?
So he thought over and over again and made a decision.
When the time came for him to open the city gate, his mission would be completed, and he should no longer interfere with the affairs in the city. Later, in order to prevent Cao from going back on his word, he decided to defect to his adopted sister in the Black Mountain Army to avoid the limelight.
If Mr. Cao still thinks about his merits, he will naturally ask for a reward for himself after his achievements are completed, and it will not be too late for him to come out again.
If Mr. Cao goes back on his word, although his family members in Yanzhou are gone, at least he can escape with his life.
If it fails, Cao Cao will not capture Huaicheng, and his identity will not be exposed. As long as he finds an excuse, he can continue to come back and work under Zhang Yang in the future.
When he was under Zhang Yang, he had a disagreement with Sui Gu. Sui Gu was from the Black Mountain Army, and Yang Chou always spoke ill of the Black Mountain Army. The two often clashed.
But no one knew that Yang Chou was just pretending. He was actually secretly related to the Montenegro Army. Even if something happened, no one would associate him with the Montenegro Army.
The more Yang Chou thought about it, the more he felt that his plan was perfect and that he had even left a way out. As long as Huaicheng was accomplished, he would be able to achieve success.
The only regret was that Mrs. Du disappeared for unknown reasons, which made him depressed for several days.
Forget it, when you become famous in the future, what kind of noble and beautiful woman will you not get?
In the Black Mountain, Zhang Yangang summoned a group of leaders to meet and asked them to go back to recruit troops, preparing to fight the Yuan family to the end.
The arrival of Yuan Shang put a lot of pressure on him, so he gave the leaders a death order, and all the young men in the able army went into battle. As for food, it was no longer important, as long as he could eat, it was a day.
If Montenegro is gone, even if there are hundreds of thousands of young people, what's the point?
What's more, Cao Cao made a private promise to him that as long as he held off Yuan Shang's army for a few months, Cao would help him break the siege. After that, Cao would ask the emperor to promote him to a noble rank!
Besides, even if you can't stop the Yuan family's attack and can't escape, the worst thing you can do is surrender to the Yuan family, and you can still hang yourself from a tree.
So Zhang Yan is not panic at all now. If everyone in Heishan is dead, Jizhou and Yanzhou will not want to see it. As for himself, he will just change his place and become the provincial governor!
At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps, and Yang Feng walked in holding an iron gun.
Seeing that he was limping, Zhang Yan stood up and said, "Why is Leader Yang here?"
"Leader Yang is seriously injured and has not recovered yet. It's better to rest up first."
Yang Feng took a breath and said, "Thank you, General Zhonglang, for your concern."
"I came here this time because I wanted to tell General Zhonglang that I would be away for two days."
After hearing this, Zhang Yan couldn't help but said: "Is there something urgent, Chief Yang?"
Yang Feng said: "It's not an urgent matter. My sworn brother is coming to Montenegro. The terrain of Montenegro is complicated. I want to go to the south pass of Montenegro on the border of Hanoi to meet him."
"It may take five or six days to go back and forth."
After hearing this, Zhang Yan said: "Chief Yang is seriously injured. Do you want me to send someone to pick him up for him?"
Yang Feng said: "There is no need to trouble General Zhonglang. Anyway, I can't go into battle now, so just let me go."
Seeing his persistence, Zhang Yan immediately nodded in agreement.
Inside the tent at the pass in the middle of the Black Mountain, Yuan Shang stood up, faced Yuan Xi who walked in, and said with a smile: "Xian Yi, long time no see."
