Yuan Shao, the father of Fanghua in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 215
Liu Bei met Guan Yu's gaze, and swallowed back the words that a man can bend and stretch.

He can say this to Zhang Fei, but he can't say it to Guan Yu. Guan Yu has a very clear mind, but it's not easy to fool around.

Liu Bei sighed: "Second brother, if possible, I would also like to bring Guangling back, but now we cannot protect ourselves."

"Not to mention that we are all remnants and defeated generals with low morale, even the remaining few thousand generals are all from the Danyang faction."

"You also know that General Danyang is already dissatisfied with you and me because of the third brother's incident in Tancheng. If the war starts again at this time, what will they do if they make trouble?"

After hearing this, Guan Yu said in a muffled voice: "Yuan Long is a local, why did you let him go to Jizhou instead of leading the army?"

"Is this because you are afraid that Mrs. Chen will grow up?"

Liu Bei's complexion changed, "Don't mention this matter, anyway, the next step is that I will marry the Mi family, it's the same."

Guan Yu said in a deep voice: "Shu Yu bluntly said that although Mi Zizhong's character is good, his ability is far worse than Chen Yuanlong's."

"Brother, I'm afraid it's because of the Mi family's property and the girl?"

Liu Bei choked for a moment, he couldn't speak for a while, and said after a long time: "I know that my second brother and Mi Fang have some disagreements, but the Mi family is my only hope to turn around now, I"

At this moment, Zhang Fei walked in with a bowl of meat in one hand and a wine jar in the other, and shouted, "Elder brother and second brother, drink and eat!"

After hearing this, Guan Yu said, "I'm not hungry, you can eat."

Zhang Fei stared blankly at Guan Yu leaving, and said to Liu Bei, "What's wrong with Second Brother?"

Seeing Zhang Fei's appearance, Liu Bei felt even more headache, and said, "Third brother, please drink less."

Zhang Fei glared, "Brother, why doesn't he seem to be happy, isn't he getting married soon?"

"My old Zhang is also very happy about such a good thing, big brother!"

"You see, I'm almost thirty, and I haven't married a wife yet, and my eldest brother is already several days old!"

Liu Bei's face froze, he stood up and said, "Third brother, drink slowly, I'll go for a walk."

Seeing that Liu Bei had also left, Zhang Fei muttered, "Could it be that this woman is more interesting than drinking and eating meat? After two years, my old Zhang will also find a wife, and see what good women are."

Inside the Mi family's mansion, the servants carried large boxes one by one and placed them neatly in the hall. The dowry that the Mi family prepared for Mi Zhen's marriage this time can be said to be extremely rich, almost emptying out all the family assets. .

Mi Fang became more and more unhappy, he remembered that he found Mi Zhu yesterday and asked him to go to Liu Bei with him to discuss Mi Zhen's status.

Now that Liu Bei's first wife is in captivity, it's fine if Mi Zhen is not the first wife for the time being. If there is only one concubine, the remaining concubines will still have the right to inherit if there is no competition between the first sons.

But Liu Bei still has a concubine.

Gan's.

This girl was born in a poor family, but she is quite beautiful, and she is very favored by Liu Bei. At that time, Mi Fang thought, her younger sister will marry her, and she will be inferior to the Gan family, right?
As a result, when he saw Mi Zhu's hesitation, he immediately understood, and yelled at Mi Zhu angrily: "Eldest brother, is this how you treat little sister?"

When Mi Zhu heard this, he was also a little annoyed, and said, "What can I do!"

"My lord is at least benevolent to others. Our Mi family has already boarded this boat, can we turn back?"

"If you can turn around, can other princes treat our Mi family like the lord?"

"If the lord is defeated, and our Mi family falls into the hands of Cao Cao or Sun Ce, do you think it will be better than it is now?"

After hearing this, Mi Fang said angrily, "I'm not talking about that, I'm saying that my younger sister could have been a regular wife!"

"Even if she's not the main wife, she shouldn't be under the Gan family!"

"brother"

At this time Mi Zhen came over and said: "You two brothers, stop arguing, the matter has come to this point, and it is time for me to do something for the Mi family."

Mi Fang resentfully said: "Could my little sister be willing?"

"The lord is so old, and we are both concubines. Our Mi family has surrendered our status. If we knew that when the Yuan family son came to Xuzhou that day, it would be better to marry the younger sister to him. At least he is now in the same state as the lord. lord"

When Mi Zhen heard this, her face turned red and then pale, "Brother, what are you talking about, I will be married in a few days, if this word spreads to other people's ears, what's the face of the Mi family?"

"Brother, stop talking!"

After speaking, her eyes turned red, she covered her face with her sleeves, turned her head and left.

She doesn't know what will happen to her in the future, but she has been anesthetizing herself these days. After all, Liu Bei is a prince, and she is the daughter of a merchant. Even being a concubine is not too shameful.

But she was afraid of being compared with others, she heard that Yuan Xi was already the governor of Youzhou, his status was similar to that of Liu Bei, and he was young, so for a lady from the noble family, she could be said to be a good husband.

When Mi Zhen was in the dead of night, an idea would pop up in her heart irresistibly, would it be better if she could marry Yuan Xi instead of Liu Bei?

She felt extremely ashamed of herself for thinking this way, and kept holding back until Mi Fang casually revealed her heart disease, causing the scar in her heart to ooze blood again.

Seeing Mi Zhen's footsteps running away in a hurry, Mi Fang seemed to be crying, and felt anxious, so she quickly followed.

Seeing this, Mi Zhu sighed aloud, there are so many happy things in this world.

Especially in today's chaotic world, it is very difficult to save one's life and achieve a good death. The Mi family still doesn't know what to do in the future.

When the people in Haixi City were troubled by all kinds of troubles, they didn't know that there was a fleet of ships heading south under the cover of night on the sea dozens of miles away from the pier of Haixi City.

Now Yuan Xi's fleet has traveled from Youzhou to Qingzhou for three days and three nights, and has reached the boundary of Xuzhou.

In order to hurry up, the fleet traveled day and night. At this time, there were ships passing by, and their destination would not be guessed for a while.

However, not everyone could bear the turbulence at sea, not to mention that nearly half of the horses were listless, even many soldiers began to get seasick.

Yuan Xi, Guo Jia and others discussed the countermeasures, and decided to let the cavalry go ashore in advance to adapt to the land when they reached the mouth of the Yangtze River, and then rushed to ambush outside Guangling City.

At the same time, the fleet went up the river, turned from the Yangtze River into the Hanhe River, and arrived at the wharf in the south of Guangling City. If the time is right, they can fight at the same time as the cavalry.

But in this case, the time requirement is very strict, and if there is a slight mistake, the surprise attack on Guangling will return in vain.

Everyone is uncertain, but the matter has come to this point, so we can only take one step at a time.

It was just nightfall, Yuan Xi was preoccupied and had no appetite, he only drank half a bowl of the gruel that Zhen Mi served, and then put it down.

When Zhen Mi saw her, she took the bowl and finished the porridge, and said, "Is the congee's porridge not tasty?"

Yuan Xi asked in surprise, "You did it?"

Zhen Mi said angrily: "Sister Zhaoji taught it. I didn't expect that the first time I did it, my husband didn't finish it."

Yuan Xi smiled and said, "The congee is delicious, but I have no appetite."

Zhen Mi laughed and said, "My husband has something on his mind."

After hearing this, Yuan Xi got up and said, "Accompany me for a walk on the deck."

The two held hands, and when they got to the bow of the boat, they saw a bright moon in the sea surrounded by dots of stars, reflected on the sea surface, as if there were countless fireflies dancing.

When Yuan Xi saw it, he couldn't help saying: "The bright moon rises above the sea, and the world will share this time."

Zhen Mi's eyes lit up, "My husband's poem is very artistic."

Yuan Xi laughed and said, "This was made by a famous poet in my hometown."

Zhen Mi thought it was strange, there were only a few poets at that time, she had read many famous poems, why hadn't she heard these two lines?

She said, "Is there anything below?"

Yuan Xi just wanted to say yes, but then he came to his senses, and the next two sentences "Lover's resentment at night, and lovesickness at night" are not appropriate. There is Zhen Mi next to him, who is he in love with?
He hurriedly said: "The bottom is gone."

Zhen Mi glanced at Yuan Xi carefully and dubiously, thinking that her husband is careful.

Now that she has stayed with Yuan Xi for a long time, she can somewhat guess what Yuan Xi is thinking, and she doesn't say anything, just staring at the bright moon on the sea, and after a while she said: "When Nian Jun left me, I felt very worried. "

Yuan Xi thought to himself, good guy, this can be matched, and these two sentences are quite similar to the later Zhen Mi's "Tang Shang Xing", but there is less sadness and resentment in the artistic conception, and a little more calm and indifferent.

He gently pulled Zhen Mi into his arms, and said, "We got married, but I let you see the blood on the battlefield, you don't blame me, do you?"

As the night wind blew, Zhen Mi seemed a little cold, she shrank into Yuan Xi's arms, and said softly: "I understand a little bit why my husband wants to share weal and woe with soldiers and common people."

"My husband is taking a very difficult road, and it is also a very long and very long road. I am very glad to follow out and see a different scenery before."

"Otherwise, I won't be able to keep up with my husband in the future."

She suddenly smiled: "The concubine is very envious of Zhaoji Cao Xian. It is impossible for the concubine to run with her husband all the time, but they can."

Yuan Xi smiled and said: "I smell a faint smell of jealousy, don't worry, I won't be running around all the time, but the next step is quite critical, so I will personally sit on the front line."

"If Xuzhou is settled down smoothly by then, we will return to Youzhou and spend a few years of quiet farming."

Zhen Mi listened and nodded slightly.

Yuan Xi put his arms around Zhen Mi and looked up towards the direction of the mainland, which should be Haixi City.

When he left, Chen Deng once said that he had invited Hua Tuo to treat his illness. After Tancheng was breached, Hua Tuo fled to Haixi.

Yuan Xi wondered if he could go to Haixi to meet Hua Tuo if he captured Guangling this time. After all, Hua Tuo's medical skills were still very important in this era.

In the past two years, Qu Yi's injuries have not healed, and his physical condition has even declined significantly, which is obviously a serious illness.

Therefore, the affairs Yuan Xi arranged for Qu Yi in the past two years were mainly to defend the city, because he was afraid that he would be too tired and his injury would worsen.

He had always wanted to find a doctor with excellent medical skills to show Qu Yi, but he could only wait for the matter to settle before trying to find a way to invite Hua Tuo.

The sound of the waves came, and the two of them unconsciously clenched their hands a little more. Yuan Xi felt the warmth from Zhen Mi's smooth and tender palm, and some fine sweat also seeped out.

Yuan Xi unconsciously thought of Zhen Mi's perfect and flawless body on the wedding night, and couldn't help feeling a little dry.

He said, "It's windy outside, let's go back."

Zhen Mi blushed slightly, and nodded slightly.

After another whole day, the fleet finally arrived at the mouth of the Yangtze River.
