The Yuan Family of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

Chapter 253 East Expedition

Yuan Shang's words are true. In the original world, he and his brother Yuan Xi, who had not been reborn, fought and failed repeatedly during Cao Cao's Northern Expedition. Go, but he was beheaded by Gongsun Kang who didn't want to, cut off his head, and sent someone to Cao Cao's camp.

Of course, these things were all facts in the previous life, but when Yuan Shang said them now, they were undoubtedly nonsense, at least they won boos from Zhen Mi, Xia Houjuan, and Lu Lingqi.

Left and right couldn't explain it to them, Yuan Shang immediately changed the subject, and said to the three women: "My expedition to Liaodong this time may take a long time, so I won't be able to accompany you. When I come back, I will make up for you. The next time I go back to Yecheng, I have to help me take care of one thing properly."

Zhen Mi's playful face gradually turned serious. She was very smart and could see the embarrassment and hesitation in Yuan Shang's eyes when he changed the subject.

"My husband, if you have anything to say, just say it, don't need to hide it, we are a family, what can't you say outright?" Zhen Mi said softly to Yuan Shang with a smile on her face.

"Well, I don't quite understand. Come with me." Yuan Shang smiled lightly, turned his head, and led the three girls to the garden outside the room.

The four of them walked slowly on the narrow path of the post house, and came to a gazebo when they were young, but there was an elegant sound of the piano slowly coming from inside, like smoke and mist, like a stream flowing in the mountains and rivers In between, the ding-dong is crisp and sultry, which makes people yearn for it infinitely.

The expressions of the three women suddenly became blurred, and they were all deeply attracted by the wonderful sound of playing the piano. When they looked up, they saw a woman in a light blue water suit with an elegant face and thin clothes in the pavilion. She raises her hand to play the piano with a plain and melancholy face, the strings seem to be integrated with her fingers, and any wonderful sound can be played according to her heart, touching the heart and making people indulge in it unconsciously. this.

Zhen Mi closed her eyes and listened quietly for a while, then smiled, turned her head slightly to look at Yuan Shang, and said with a playful smile, "What? What you said we should take care of properly is she?"

Yuan Shang nodded lightly, and said: "Madam is really smart. Of course!"

Xia Houjuan pouted, looked carefully at Cai Yan who was in the gazebo, then turned to look at Yuan Shang who was smiling awkwardly, and said with jealousy: "This sister is really beautiful, my husband. You are amazing, you said clearly that you were going to the grassland to fight barbarians, but secretly you took back a beautiful sister who was beautiful in a golden house."

Yuan Shang coughed heavily, frowned, and said, "Stinky girl, what are you talking about? I don't know, stop yelling, this is not a sister, but our aunt!"

"Aunt?" The three girls couldn't help being stunned when they heard the words.

But at this moment, Cai Yan, who was playing the piano in the gazebo, seemed to have heard the voice of Yuan Shang and the three daughters talking, and immediately got up, walked gracefully between Yuan Shang and the three daughters, leaned slightly, and said: "Ministers don't know The general is here, it will be too late to see, and I hope the general will forgive me a lot."

When Yuan Shang heard this, he hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Aunt Yan doesn't need to be too polite, sorry my nephew can't afford it."

The three girls couldn't help being stunned when they heard the words.

After a while.
But seeing Lu Lingqi raised her eyebrows, she said to Yuan Shang angrily, "Yuan Xianfu, I really misjudged you, you lustful person! You have fallen for a lifetime after seeing a beauty, how can you be considered a man like this? !--asshole!"

Yuan Shang frowned, turned his head and said, "What do you know? Don't make noise if you don't understand! Stay cool!"

"The ladies misunderstood." Cai Yan came out softly and explained for Yuan Shang, explaining to the three daughters how they met and got acquainted in Mobei, and the relationship between their father and grandparents.

The three daughters were stunned when they heard the words. After Cai Yan finished speaking, she saw Zhen Mi bowing down to Cai Yan gracefully, and said softly: "I have heard the name of Master Cai for a long time. He is the best in virtue and ability. He is indeed the best among my daughters." An excellent example, it is a great fortune in my life for Zhen Mi to meet everyone Cai today, and I would like to serve her with the courtesy of an elder!"

Cai Yan was taken aback when he heard the words, he never thought that Zhen Mi would be so polite, so he hurriedly said that he didn't dare.

Seeing this, Yuan Shang heaved a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that Zhen Mi was the most sensible compared to Xia Houjuan and Lu Lingqi.

"Ma'am, during my Eastern Expedition, Aunt Cai's living arrangement in Yecheng is entirely up to you. I hope you will take care of it carefully and don't neglect her."

Zhen Mi smiled slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, leave everything to me."

*************************
After arranging the affairs of the wives and Cai Yan at home, Yuan Shang immediately raised his troops and rushed to Youzhou, and dispatched guards from all over the country, and soon rushed to Beiping, the capital of Youzhou, where he and his two Brother Yuan Xi will reconcile, Yuan Xi has already prepared his troops and horses at this moment, and is waiting for Yuan Shang so that he can go out at any time.

When the two brothers met, it was natural for them to greet each other warmly, care and considerate. After chatting with each other, Yuan Xi immediately invited Yuan Shang to his study to discuss matters related to the Eastern Expedition.

"Brother." Yuan Xi raised his hand to fill a cup of wine for Yuan Shang, and drank it with his head up: "Brother thinks it is not a good time to conquer Liaodong this time, but since you insist on it, I don't want to." It’s easy to say something, but let me remind you first, so as not to regret it in the future.”

Yuan Shang took the wine cup handed over by Yuan Xi, raised his head and drank half of it, wiped his mouth and said, "Why is the timing wrong, please tell me clearly."

Yuan Xi coughed softly, and said: "Nowadays, all parts of the Central Plains are fighting each other, and the princes are attacking each other. The soldiers and horses from all over the country have no time to go east. Gongsun Du established himself as Liaodong Marquis and Pingzhou Shepherd. He attacked Goguryeo in the east. , attacked Wuhuan in the west, took the land of Dongdao in the south, expanded the territory, recruited talented people, set up a school, recruited refugees, and spread his prestige overseas. He pretended to be the king of Liaodong. Now many years have passed, and the power of the states in Middle Earth has declined. , only the land of Liaodong is developing strongly, and because of the special geographical location of Liaodong, the Gongsun family cut off the connection between the imperial court and Dongyi. No matter how difficult it is for Cao Cao, if we fight the Gongsun family for a long time, I am afraid that we will be confronted by the enemy, so I ask you to think twice."

Yuan Shang nodded when he heard the words, and said: "Although what the second brother said is reasonable, it is imperative for us to conquer the Gongsun family this time, and Cao Cao has reached an agreement with me. Before I conquer Liaodong, he will never After sending troops to attack me, after all, if the Gongsun clan really established Liu He as emperor, it would be extremely detrimental to Cao Cao's political status... Besides, the soldiers and horses in Liaodong are strong, and the Gongsun clan has been operating for many years. The power will inevitably increase unprecedentedly, and it is within my plan to take down Gongsun Du both in public and in private."

Yuan Xi was puzzled for a while when he heard the words, and suddenly said: "My dear brother, I don't worry about anything else, what I worry about is...do you really believe in Cao Cao?"

Yuan Shang nodded and said with a smile: "I don't care about other things, but on this matter, I absolutely trust him!"

"Okay, third brother, since you said so, let us brothers join forces to recover Liaodong together and wipe out Gongsun's father and son!"

*********************
The Taishou Mansion of Changli City, the capital of Liaodong.

"Alas!" Gongsun Du, the prefect of Liaodong, is nearly [-] years old. He has occupied Dongliao for many years, and he has been living a comfortable life. How comfortable and comfortable, life is almost stress-free.

But until today, he didn't know what it was like to be really worried. He thought it was a seamless strategy, and he didn't want it to be cracked by Yuan Shang and Cao Cao. Now Yuan Xi of Youzhou has assembled an army in Beiping , Gongsun Du is not stupid, he understands the purpose of Yuan Xi's gathering of soldiers and horses in Youzhou... Their purpose is the land of Liaodong that he has managed for many years.

"Father, are you looking for me?"

A high-pitched and clear voice rang in Gongsun Du's ear, and when he looked up, it was none other than his beloved son Gongsun Kang.

When Gongsundu saw his son, he wrinkled his eyes immediately, shook his head heavily, and sighed: "You, you, you really brought disaster to our Gongsun family this time....... At the beginning, Liu He sent someone to negotiate with us about the land of Youzhou in a certain map, and when he assassinated Gongsun Xu, the old man told you that the land of Liaodong is the foundation of our painstaking efforts. But they don’t listen, but now it’s good! Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi came to kill with all their soldiers and horses from Youzhou. The momentum was like a rainbow. On the grassland of Mobei, Ke Bineng died in battle. Su Li and Bu Dugen were also forced by Cao Jun, and they must serve sooner or later , what you are planning to do is to put me in Liaodong to the point of life and death!"

After finishing speaking, seeing that Gongsun was out of breath, he coughed violently a few more times, showing that his old body was extremely fragile.

His son, Gongsun Kang, looked calm and said: "Father, the matter has come to this point, it is useless to talk too much, it is a good strategy to deal with it as soon as possible. Although Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi are coming fiercely, my Liaodong foundation has been accumulated for many years. Waiting is comparable, Yuan Shang wanted to wipe us out in one fell swoop, hehe, but it was not enough."

Gongsun Du shook his head and said: "I am old and frail, and I am dying. Sooner or later, I will die. You will taste the bitter fruit you planted yourself. How to deal with Yuan Shang is up to you and your ally Liu He. I don’t care about it, at worst, when the city is destroyed, I hang a three-foot white silk on the beam and kill myself.”

Hearing this, Gongsun Kang hurriedly said: "Father, you don't need to be so worried. My son already has a plan to deal with the Yuan family. This time, my son wants to invite [-] soldiers to guard Bailang Mountain, the barrier in front of Changli City. The terrain is dangerous. , easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as you keep the control cards and guard the mountains closely, Yuan Shang will not even think about attacking even if he has millions of soldiers. People die!"
