Big Ear Thief Selling Straw Sandals

Chapter 58 The Counterattack of the New Patriarch of the Yuan Family
In the fifth year of Zhongping, July [-]th, late at night.

Dongdu, south of the city, Huzi Lane, a certain yard.

Wuda, a tall, burly, stinking Hu man wearing a torn leather jacket, with a bald head and dark skin, pushed the door open and entered.

Entering the room, a nobleman from the Southern Dynasty, with eyes like eagles and snakes, looked him up and down and smiled with satisfaction.

There is no fear or curiosity in the eyes of the bald barbarian, just like a barren saline-alkali land, without a little bit of green life.

This is a lone wolf.

Of course, Liu Neng ignored one exception.

When he shook the bag open and dropped four shiny gold ingots, there was a hint of greed in Wu Da's eyes.

Looking at the huge gold ingot in front of him, he accepted this life-threatening deal without hesitation.

For the sake of this huge sum of money, for the good life of the clansmen, let's die.

Liu Neng showed indifferent approval, as if Wu Da and the target to be assassinated were as insignificant as ants.

Lord Hou's words are everything.

In order to teach Yuan Shao and the Yuan family a lesson, the head of Yongzhou's secret service team rushed to Dongdu and used the fiercest and most cunning barbarian killer for the first time.

Uda's skills are extremely good. In order to kill the son of the tribal leader who occupied his pasture, he lurked in the mud pit next to the water source for three days, and finally beheaded the little boy and his four guards.

The tribal leader vowed to avenge his son, but Uda, who had no one to take him in and dared not go home, had to flee south and hide in the eastern capital to make a living.

After Jin Yiwei's secret agents discovered Wu Da who was in distress, he recruited him as a dead soldier and gave him some monthly fees.

Therefore, after Liu Neng came, he directly studded.

Get rid of Tai Fu Yuan Wei, in addition to 20 taels of gold ingots, you will also support your tribe to regain the water source.

Of course, Uda alone is not enough to kill Yuan Wei. Liu Neng has made careful investigation and arrangements in advance, and even prepared Plan B.

Lord Hou ordered people to die at the fifth watch, who would dare to keep their lives until the sixth watch?
What?There is no sixth watch, ah, it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that Yuan Shao will arrive in Dongdu tomorrow, just in time to keep watch for his uncle.

The night fades away, and the dawn suddenly appears.

At the fifth watch, Yuan Kui, the patriarch of the Yuan Mansion, boarded a carriage and headed for the imperial city.

The alleys that used to be unobstructed suddenly became crowded today, as if there was a dispute between Hu and merchants causing a blockage.

Seeing that he was going to be late, Yuan Kai lifted up the curtains and immediately ordered: "Quickly open the way!"

The two servants immediately went forward to drive away the Hu people. However, the Hu merchants, who were carrying the burden and pushing the cart, started shoving and scuffling with the servants.

These humble beards are out of order!

The remaining four servants were furious, and immediately took up their sticks and stepped forward to help.

At this moment, Wu Da, who had been waiting by the side for a long time, jumped out of the pile of debris, jumped into the carriage, wiped the driver's neck neatly, and jumped into the carriage.

"Who... ah!"

Hearing the screams, the servants of Yuan's mansion in front immediately got out and rushed back, only to see a masked man in a turban jump out of the car and run away desperately.

"Catch that man!"

The four servants immediately followed to chase Uda, and the remaining two servants hurriedly pulled the curtain of the car.

However, Yuan Kai was covering his neck with both hands, with blood continuously spilling from his fingers, and what was even more terrible was that the Patriarch still had a knife handle stuck in his chest, and the inside of the carriage was dripping with blood.

Getting into the carriage, the servant tried every means, but in the end, it was hopeless.

July and a half, early morning.

The Grand Tutor of the Great Han Dynasty, the head of the Yuan family, Yuan Kai, was assassinated in the street, and the murderer fled.

The civil servants were outraged.

The emperor was very puzzled.

The eunuch and his relatives swear to separate themselves.

This seems to be a homicide without a beginning and an end, and it was almost characterized as a passionate murder by a barbarian in a dispute.

Until noon, in front of the gate of the Yuan Mansion where the plain lanterns and streamers fluttered, the dusty Yuan Shao fell to his knees with a plop and let out a heart-piercing scream.

"I was wrong! Damn me!"

The ruling and opposition parties were taken aback!
This is getting weird.

Yuan Kui's funeral was extremely mournful, and many bigwigs came to express their condolences.

Through further contacts and inquiries, the truth of Yuan Wei's assassination was revealed.

According to rumors, it seems that it was Yongzhou Mu and Liu Bei who ordered the Hu people to kill.

Therefore, many people criticized Liu Bei verbally and in writing. After all, even the current Tai Tuo dared to kill him, and other people felt even less safe.

But soon, someone disagreed.

Yuan Shao's scream of "I was wrong, I deserve to die" clearly refers to what he did, which may be the cause of Yuan Kai's death.

Reminiscent of Yongzhou, Yuan Shao was suddenly sent back to the Eastern Capital, which is intriguing.

Within a few days, news came that Zheng Tai, the mastermind of the Shangjun kidnapping case, had been executed.

Everyone suddenly realized.

On the day Yuan Shao arrived, stabbing Yuan Kai to death in the street was definitely Chi Guoguo's revenge.

Therefore, the person behind the assassination of Yuan Kai couldn't be more obvious.

The Marquis of Yongzhou didn't kill Yuan Shao, but went all the way to kill Yuan Kai, which proved that he had great power in Dongdu.

Moreover, the words "whoever touches my family will have to pay the price" were obviously not meant for Yuan Shao and his family.

At this level of analysis, most people stopped attacking Yongzhou.

This is a personal grievance and has nothing to do with me, so why bother getting burned?
Looking at the tearful Yuan Shao in Yuan's study room, Yuan Ji, who was dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, was about to explode.

Pig, stupid pig, stupider than stupid pig!

Uncle repeatedly told him to avoid that fiendish god, one or two would be useless, and if he was disobedient and caused disaster, what's the point of crying?
The family is already working, try to call you back, see what kind of pig and dog friends you have made?
Also, do you think that four generations and three males, how did they come here?

It is the old people leading the new ones, the elders pulling the nephews, and it is saved from generation to generation.

The only Sangong in the family died so unjustly. Who can guarantee whether I, a reserve servant, can be promoted?

Now it seems that although the road is absurd, at least we know how to form a navy to please the emperor, and the future can be expected.

Hey, as for Yuan Shao's little maidservant, it's really unreliable!

No matter how annoyed and resentful he was, Uncle Yuan Kai couldn't survive.

Trying his best to calm down, Yuan Ji said lightly: "From now on, be a down-to-earth individual in the Northern Army!"

Yuan Shao was so ashamed that he didn't dare to say anything to the new Patriarch, so he left the study.

Yuan Ji is a pragmatic faction. As the head of the family, the first consideration is the survival and development of the family.

Death is like a lamp going out, what matters is the living.

The Yuan family must cheer up, the more adversity they face, the more they must make a big splash.

Yuan Shu used the construction of a navy as an excuse to actually operate the maritime trade. No matter how effective it is, it is a matter of doing things after all, and he must do his best to promote it.

Wanting to accomplish something in the complicated and messy court without a certain status and experience, without a solid network of contacts, is tantamount to nonsense.

Even though Yuan Kai is dead, the Yuan family is still there, and the connections attached to the Yuan family are still there. As long as the emperor is persuaded, or the ten permanent servants, it can be done.

How can we justify the name and prevent others from boycotting and tearing down the bridge?
Looking at his filial piety, Yuan Ji was thoughtful.

After the first seven days, Yuan Ji submitted a memorial, proposing to form the Royal Navy.

There are three core reasons.

First of all, the sea area is vast, and the barbarians outside the area urgently need to bathe in the grace of the emperor.

Secondly, to expand the territory, the sea area is also the territory, which can expand the empire's territory to thousands of miles away.

Thirdly, the water transportation is convenient, whether it is mobilizing troops or transporting materials, it has obvious advantages.

In the end, Yuan Ji pointed out in a sad tone that before the death of Tai Tuo Yuan Kai, he had been working day and night for the affairs of the navy, but unfortunately his ambition was not rewarded.

Therefore, as a descendant of the Yuan family, I am determined to inherit my uncle's behest, to be the forerunner of the emperor, to spread his prestige overseas, and to bring all nations to court.

It has to be said that the idea of ​​inheriting the Taifu's will touched the weakness of Man Chao, and he did not dare to veto it easily.

However, Zhao Zhong, who had received the benefits, spared no effort to say good things, and finally persuaded the emperor to approve the project.

After accounting, the court allocated 300 million taels of silver to build a dock in Yangzhou.

Worship Yuan Shu as General Fubo, form a navy from now on, supervise the construction of ten warships and cargo ships, suppress the four seas, and expand the sea.

I thought that after Yuan Kai's death, the Yuan family would gradually decline, and many former disciples and officials had other ideas.

However, no one expected that the Yuan family would show a strong background and resources so quickly, and even obtained the military power of the Royal Navy.

According to this trend, within a few years, Yuan Ji can be promoted to Taifu or Taifu, and continue to maintain the title of fourth generation and third prince.

The Yuan Mansion is full of guests again, and there is an endless stream of volunteers.

Liu Bei was quite surprised when he received the news from Dongdu, and immediately reflected on himself.

It is naive and arrogant to think that by killing Yuan Kai, the Yuan family can be defeated.

Any big boss has an entire family behind him, with extensive connections and a solid foundation.

Yuan Ji, a silent and unknown person in history, seems to be far inferior to Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, but what he did was really beautiful!
Rolling the Yangtze River, how many heroes have been wiped out.

If I don't get rid of the bad habit of blind complacency, I will probably be the first group to be eliminated.

Grab the brush, stretch your teeth and dance your claws to write "A proud soldier must be defeated", hang it in the study, and be alert day and night.

And Yuan Shu from Jiujiang, having received the court's decree and appropriation, looked up to the sky and laughed.

Get a set for a vacation in the suburbs. The limited edition Tesla electric carriage must be purely imported, plus seven or eight small internet celebrities
Only in this way can he be worthy of the prestige of General Fubo of the Royal Navy!

"Here, 150 million taels, let Wentai use it to build a dock and build warships."

150 million taels of silver went into Yuan Yanei's pocket in the blink of an eye.
Sun Jian on the side was dumbfounded.

Zang Ba said in a low voice: Actually, seven or eight million taels is enough for one province.

Sun Jian turned his head abruptly, then thoughtful.
