Chapter 208 Design Pitfalls (two chapters in one)
Xin Ping died, he fought to the last person, fought to the last breath, died vigorously, stood upright, in order not to be insulted by others, in order to establish his self-esteem, he fought to the last moment!Although the reason that forced him to do so was just the mere word "Self Palace".

Life is not great, and death is not too honorable, this is the meaning of Yuan Shangwei's comment made by Xin Ping.

The battle in the city is over, and the rest is to clean up the battlefield. The rebels and their family members in the city, including Yuan Tan himself, are all temporarily detained, waiting for the Cao army in Liyang to retreat before taking the next step. Plan, because for Yuan Shang now, the top priority is to find a way to repel Cao Cao and completely restore the stability of Hebei.

But before discussing these things, Yuan Shang needs to go back to the Yuan Mansion to see his family and friends. After making sure that all these people are safe, he can devote all his energy to dealing with Cao Cao.

A son wants to be filial but does not wait for his relatives. Although it is more or less distorted and ambiguous here, after the First Battle of Yecheng, Yuan Shang knew more clearly and definitely the share that his relatives and friends have for him. Significance.

"Mother~~! The child is not filial, and he can't be with mother during the war, making mother suffer!"

When Yuan Shang appeared in front of the main hall of Yuan Mansion with tears in his eyes and full of deep apologies, he saw a group of people sitting in the hall, including Mrs. Liu, Zhen Mi, Xia Houjuan, Deng Chang, Zuo Ci and so on. They were all stunned.
"Son! You... you're back?" Shimbun Liu stood up tremblingly, looking at Yuan Shang who was exhausted and bloody and dirty.Unknowingly, the slightly aged eyes flashed with tears.

"Mom, I'm back! Are you old? Are you okay?" Seeing the familiar face in the hall, a strong warmth rushed into Yuan Shang's heart, and there was some trembling in his words unconsciously .

With her arms open, Liu walked towards Yuan Shang tremblingly step by step, nodding excitedly as she walked, and said with a choked voice: "Mother, I'm fine, Mother, I'm fine."

"Mother~~!" Yuan Shang's heart softened, and the long-lost childishness rushed into his head, and he was about to throw himself into his mother's arms and cry bitterly.

"Bah—!"

Before he took two steps, he suddenly felt a chestnut hit on his head, and then he was dizzy for a while, and a huge pustule bulged from his forehead unconsciously. It was red and swollen, and he was extremely awake. human eyes.

Seeing that Liu's eyes were still twinkling with tears, but there was obviously a little more anger in his eyes, he blew on his fist that was still smoking, and said to Yuan Shang dissatisfiedly: "Mum, I'm not to blame~~! Say it! You unfilial son, who fought all night, why are you willing to show up now, leaving my old lady behind, where did you go insane!?"

In Yuan Shang's heart, the long-lost family affection that had been touched by the rest of his life just now disappeared without a trace.

"Where can I go? I can't go around to suppress the rebellion! In such a big city, it's not just that there are rebels in our Yuan Mansion. As the lord, I can't coordinate the battle everywhere? Mother, the older you are , why are you becoming more and more unreasonable?" Yuan Shang felt very wronged, and while covering the bag on his head, he complained dissatisfiedly to Mrs. Liu.

"Stinky boy! How dare you talk stubbornly after leaving my mother and daughter-in-law behind? Mother, I really love you for nothing. Smash you to death, you unfilial son! Smash you to death!" When Liu said this, she couldn't help but feel sad, and she cried hard while crying. He raised his hand and slapped Yuan Shang, only to hit Yuan Shang with big bags all over his head, covering his head and not daring to show his neck.

While swaying from side to side, Yuan Shang resisted Liu's attack, and said bitterly: "Mother, listen to my explanation. In fact, I have already made arrangements for this matter last night. Although our Yuan Mansion looks dangerous, it is actually as stable as Mount Tai. Nothing will happen at all Oops! Who? Who hit me?"

Turning his head to look, he saw that at some point, Zhen Mi and Xia Houjuan also joined Liu's beating camp, beating and smashing Yuan Shang with "bang bang bang bang".

"You have no conscience! You ran out to hide and have fun, but let our women's family take care of your family here! Who do you think you are? Kill you, kill you!" Zhen Mi shed tears , hammered Yuan Shang fiercely.

Xia Houjuan was also beating crazily: "That's right, that's right, he didn't even glance at us when he entered the house, he didn't even ask us a question, and he said that it's as stable as Mount Tai, without us this mansion would be over early! Kill you, kill you!"

Yuan Shang was reluctant to resist Liu's beating alone, but now he was flanked by three women, and the three sides attacked each other with punches and feet, how could he resist?Before he knew it, his clothes were ripped apart, and his face was blushed, but he was not recruited, so he could only force himself to work hard.

"Stinky bitches! It's unreasonable. Didn't you ask for this? I didn't force you to. Scratch, where are you going to scratch?! Don't forget to say hello on your face, ruin my look, go back How can I convince the people in the military camp? Hey, hey, don’t forget to kick in the crotch if you don’t hit your face!? Don’t bring such a joke! Do you even talk about some routines!”

Behind the siege of the women, Deng Chang and Zuo Ci, the two old sneaks, exchanged an evil look unconsciously, knowing each other, and then they rushed forward with yelling, squeezed against Liu, Zhen Next to Mi and Xia Houjuan, they also made wild gestures to Yuan Shang.

"Wow wow wow~~~! You heartless bastard, you left us old men there and ignored them, and didn't talk about rewards for meritorious deeds! It was a waste of our loyalty to you, and your conscience was eaten by dogs .I'll kill you! I'll kill you~~!"

Yuan Shang was suddenly furious: "You two are not ashamed, it's fine if you don't help me fight, but you still dare to punch? You really think I'm a soft persimmon, pinch it, go shit, go shit, you guys! I'll beat you to death You, kill you!"

"."

For a moment, the entire hall was full of chickens and dogs, Liu Shi, Zhen Mi, and Xia Houjuan scratched Yuan Shang, and the two old bastards Zuo Ci and Deng Chang followed. Taking the risk of letting the three women punch more, they also desperately fought back against Deng Chang and Zuo Ci, but it was a three-point battle, the two sides attacked, and the sky was dark, the sun and the moon were dark, and it happened that these people were all capable. In terms of identity, ordinary guards and subordinates would not dare to come up to stop them, so they just let them mess around in the hallway
******************
After three cups of tea, the bloody storm in the hall of the Yuan Mansion had just come to an end. Everyone stopped, and the three women headed by Mrs. Liu were unharmed and won a complete victory!On the other hand, Yuan Shang, Deng Chang, and Zuo Ci have bruised noses, swollen faces, and scars all over their faces. Either they have dark circles under their eyes, nosebleeds, or their clothes have been torn into small pieces. They look like three defeated roosters. Embarrassed.

Mrs. Liu let out a bad breath in her chest, feeling very contented, she led her two daughters-in-law to the back hall to find a place to drink tea and eat fruits, to recharge their batteries and stop urinating on them!

Hua Tuo, who was on the sidelines, sighed, and with a small medicine basket on his back, stepped forward to give the three of them a pulse diagnosis and treat their injuries.

Behind him, Xiao Yuanmai was also very different from usual, showing a cute and sensible look, helping Hua Tuo, helping the three of them bandage their wounds.

"Ouch~~!" Gently, Yuan Shang grinned and complained, then looked at Yuan Mai who was lightly bandaging his wound, and wondered: "You brat, when did you change your temper and become So cute?"

Yuan Mai trembled when he heard the words, and secretly glanced at Deng Chang, shrinking his neck and not daring to speak.

Deng Chang gave a stern bah, and said, "Nonsense, except for me, Mr. Deng Da, who has such earth-shattering means, who else can tame this kid? Come here! Give me a thump on my back, sir, let your brother do it!" It's too heavy, it hurts me to death!"

Yuan Mai obediently came behind Deng Chang, clenched two small fists and began to beat Deng Chang's back. The old man closed his eyes, looking very comfortable.

Zuo Ci looked enviously at Deng Chang, and said, "Oh, Mr. Deng, you are younger than me, but you are much better at treating your apprentices than me. Look at this kid you trained, he is as good as a dog. Yes, it really makes my old man envious."

Speaking of this, he glanced at Yuan Shang with dissatisfaction, and snorted coldly: "You are looking at me, let alone beat my old man's back, and beat my half-immortal body with injuries all over his body, his face is covered with bruises. Yu, the whole thing is rebellious and blasphemy!"

Yuan Shang sneered when he heard the words, and without looking at the two old men, he turned his head and looked at the sky outside the mansion, but he was so angry that he wanted to fight with him for a while. But when he thought of Yuan Shang's powerful counterattack just now, his morale plummeted immediately.

While enjoying the back-beating bought by Xiao Yuan, Deng Chang asked Hua Tuo to touch the golden sore medicine on him, and suddenly said: "The chaos in Yecheng has been quelled, and the future has been decided. Do you need to return to Liyang immediately for the next step?" Big camp, organize troops and horses to start a complete war with Cao Cao?"

Yuan Shang pondered for a while, shook his head with a long sigh, and said, "Fight against Cao Cao head-on, even if you beat him back, that would be a crushing victory. In fact, before I came to Yecheng this time, I had already told Sima Yi to make plans for them. Alright, the chain plan, as soon as the city of Ye is pacified, immediately begin to deceive Cao Cao, lure him into the bait, and then set up an ambush to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop!"

Zuo Ci rubbed the panda's eyes that had been beaten out, and said with a chuckle: "Although my old man is a foreigner, he also knows that Cao Cao is the number one hero in the world today. You want to lie to him? I'm afraid it won't be that easy?"

Yuan Shang smiled and said, "It's not easy to cheat! There is no way, because this is the best way to minimize losses and make Cao Cao retreat?"

"What do you want to do?" Deng Chang asked suspiciously.

"Think of a way to let Cao Cao know that in the battle of Yecheng, Xin Ping won a complete victory and seized the city, Yuan Shang died, and the three armies raised their troops in silence!"

"You want Cao Cao to believe that Xin Pingsheng? You're dead? I'm afraid it's not that easy?" Hua Tuo, who was bandaging Deng Chang's wound, couldn't help but frown.

Yuan Shang laughed, and said: "Our spies have gone, it must be impossible! Cao Cao will definitely not believe it, only by letting his own people tell him the news, will it be possible to lure the old thief into the bait!"

Deng Chang stroked his beard and wondered, "One of his own people? Who would be so stupid to do such an unreliable thing?"
Yuan Shang shook his head with a smile, and said: "It's not impossible. In my hands, I now have three captives of Cao Jun! One is the young general Cao Zhen who was captured by Zhang Yan in the battle of Cangting, and the other is Shang Shupu Shezhong. Yao, the other is Zang Ba, the general of the Cao army who was captured alive by me the day before yesterday. On Cao Zhen and Zang Ba!"
"Cao Zhen and Zang Ba?" Deng Chang opened his mouth in surprise and said, "But how can you let these two people lie to Cao Cao for you? Persuade him to surrender!"

Yuan Shang smiled slightly, took out a pair of cloth from his bosom, and said: "This is the plan that I, Sima Yi, Tian Feng, Ju Shou, and Xun Chen thought about day and night before returning to Yecheng. The city has been restored, and it's time to put it into practice! Since you two claim to be sophisticated, why don't you help me take a look and see if there are any omissions?"

Deng Chang and Zuo Ci immediately poked their heads out to look carefully at the contents on the cloth. Yuan Mai also wanted to poke his head out, but Deng Chang turned his head and stared at him, so he shrank his neck in fright and concentrated on rubbing Deng Chang's shoulders and back. .Hua Tuo, on the other hand, was busy with his own medical work, and he didn't pay any attention to these conspiracies and tricks, but he was truly detached from the outside world.

When they were young, the two old men couldn't help sighing in admiration after reading it.

"As expected, it is a coup that has been researched by all the top sages in Hebei. It is really amazing! One link is intertwined with the other. It can be called a continuous plan, but it is a bit laborious to implement, I am afraid it will not be so easy."

Yuan Shang nodded and said: "Whether this plan will work or not is only a matter of five or five. I am not very sure! But it is better than sitting on the mountain and doing nothing. I will prepare to start the arrangement immediately. Need a helping hand."

Deng Chang slapped his chest loudly, and said as a guarantee: "If you have anything to do, just leave it to me! We two have had sex with each other over the years. But there is one more thing that I have been thinking about for a long time. , I just saw you today, I hope you can agree?"

Yuan Shang was taken aback when he heard the words, and said, "What's the matter?"

Deng Chang chuckled, and said: "Deng Ai, my silly boy, is now at the age when he should study hard and train him. After thinking about it, I think it's useless to hire any teacher. It's better to teach him personally. It just so happens that I see you. This younger brother Yuan Mai is also a good seedling, why don't you hand it over to the old man and let me help you train him, how about it?"

As soon as the words fell, Yuan Mai's face suddenly turned pale, his little lips were trembling, and his teeth were chattering uncontrollably.

Yuan Shang carefully looked at the smug old Deng, and then at Yuan Mai who couldn't straighten up in front of Deng Chang despite his viciousness, and his heart changed slightly.
"Okay! Let's do it like this! I'll go tell my mother tomorrow, Mr. Deng, Yuan Mai will leave this child to you to teach!" Although the smile on Yuan Shang's face is like a spring breeze, it's not difficult to find something wrong when he looks carefully. There is an obvious negative meaning in it.

"Brother~~! We have no enmity!" Yuan Mai plopped and knelt down to Yuan Shang, crying heartbrokenly: "I'm your real brother! How could you treat me like this~~!! Whoa whoa~~!"

Yuan Shang cherished Yuan Mai's cute little face, bared his white teeth and smiled lightly, "Brother, I am thinking about your future. Besides, if you think about it carefully, do we really have no enmity?"

Yuan Mai was suffocated when he heard this.

"Well, I should suggest to my mother that for your future development, you'd better move to Mr. Deng to do it, so that sooner or later you can ask for advice if you don't understand."

Yuan Mai's mouth split open again.

"Wow wow wow wow ~~~~"

*************************
Ye City, Yuan Shang Mansion, inside the side hall.

Yuan Shang and the examiner, one master and one deputy, sat high on the master seat in the hall, looking coldly at the shivering Simpi below, and a gloomy chill permeated the entire hall.

"Xin Pi, your brother Xin Ping is dead!" Yuan Shang looked at Xin Pi and said quietly.

Simpi trembled all over when he heard the words, and quickly nodded in agreement: "It's a good death, a good death, the thief who betrayed the master deserves to end like this, if he doesn't die, I want to beat him to death for the master, rebellion! Pure Such a rebellious person! Such a person is really too hateful!"

Yuan Shang nodded appreciatively, and said with a smile: "Dayi kills relatives, you have a lot of backbone, yes, what I admire is your indiscriminate drive!"

"Ah?" Simpi was stunned when he heard the words.

"Wrong, what I want to say is that I appreciate your vigor to distinguish between grievances and grievances. Right, I have to tell you one more thing. Although your elder brother Xin Ping is rebelling against the law, your Xin clan, including yours The wives, concubines and children are all unscathed, they are living well in Yecheng, and they are given money and food every day without any difference."

Upon hearing the words, Simpi hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, my lord, Xinpi is willing to go through fire and water for my lord, and I will do my best~!"

He is a sensible person. He knows that Yuan Shang is now controlling his relatives and not killing them. They sneaked out one by one and killed them eight times, but they couldn't say anything wrong.

Yuan Shang nodded, and said: "Very well, actually what I asked you to do is very simple, Xinpi, I want you to cooperate with the trial partner, to play a big show together, to deceive the trust of two people, as long as you can do it , I will not only pardon your Xin clan’s felony crimes, but also entrust you with heavy responsibilities. But if you dare to lie to me, don’t forget that your entire clan is now in my hands, and you must If you think about it clearly, then give me a good answer!"

Xinpi kowtowed hurriedly when he heard the words, and said, "May I ask the Lord to let me deceive two people?"

"The two Cao Jun prisoners I captured, Cao Zhen and Zang Ba!"
