He Yong opened his mouth and his face turned red, and then he turned pale again.

Zhang Miao is ranked among the eight chefs. Chefs can help people with money. Zhang Miao helps countless people, so they call themselves elders and are famous loyal people. Han Fu gave up Jizhou and should have been regarded as a guest of honor by Yuan Shao, but now he is coming to Zhang Miao for refuge. This is contrary to morality and died in Zhang Miao's place. Regardless of whether Zhang Miao was killed or not, Zhang Miao cannot escape.

This is to ruin Zhang Miao's reputation and to trap friends injustice.

Zhang Miao was right to refuse to see him, so what could he say when he saw him? He introduced Yuan Shao to Zhang Miao at the beginning. Zhang Miao's brothers helped Yuan Shao do so many things, but Yuan Shao treats them like this now, and his referee is very dull.

"Zhong Zhuo, I first recovered from Chang'an, and then lived in seclusion in Wancheng. I don't know much about Shandong. Tell me."

Zhang Chao heard Jiang Gan say that he knew that He Yong was in Wancheng and Xinpi was there, and there was news to Yecheng every few days, but he had never contacted them. He himself was a little resentful. Now He Yong pretended to be ignorant, so he even became even more angry and told He Yong about the incident after Yuan Shao left Luoyang.

Xun You led the horse and walked side by side with Xinpi, and neither of them spoke. The whispers in the car behind could be heard vaguely, and from time to time there were muffled sounds, which were the sound of someone pounding the desk.

"Gongda, where will you go after sending your husband to Yecheng?"

"I don't know." Xun You said slowly: "If there is chaos today, I don't know where to go. Let's take a look."

"Many of your Xun family are in Yecheng. You are sent to Chang'an by your uncle Xun Wenruo. It doesn't matter if you stay in Yecheng. Yuan Xiansi entered Yanzhou and was eager to seek talent. He has admired Gongda for a long time. If you are willing to come to Yanzhou, he will definitely welcome him."

Xun You turned his head to look at Xinpi, and laughed softly, "George's voice must not be heard by the gentleman. The prince will not be in charge. The gentleman has a lot of opinions about Yuan Xiansi's entry into Yanzhou. This time he goes to Yecheng, he must give advice to Yuan Benchu."

Xin Pi sighed secretly. It doesn't matter whether He Yong would give advice to Yuan Shao. What matters is that Xun You rejected Yuan Tan's invitation. What does he want to do? Will he go to Sun Ce? Logically speaking, he should shut up when it comes to this, but he just doesn't give up.

"Gongda, you and I have been together for several months, and it's enough to be a negotiation, so there's nothing I can teach me?"

Xun You was silent for a long time, but seeing that Xin Pi still did not give up, he could only say: "George, Yuan Benchu ​​is in his prime, and is the leader of the party, the leader of the Yuan clan, and the three identities of a raider, and he is home to the heart of the country. Who can match his influence? This is the situation and cannot be reached by human power. Not to mention Yuan Xiansi, no one can completely replace him. As the eldest son of Yuan Xiansi, Yuan Xiansi can only be kept by and cannot be reversible, otherwise he will be backfired."

Xinpi looked at Xun You. "Then are you going to stay in Yecheng?"

Xun You frowned slightly and pondered for a moment. "If possible, I want to go to Yizhou. If Yizhou cannot travel, I want to go to Jiaozhou. I can't be a hermit, but I can find a place to be the head of a county."

Xinpi sighed regretfully.

——

It was already two days later when He Yong arrived in Pingqiu. Yuan Tan personally went out to the camp to greet him thirty miles away. In the hot days, he was still wearing a full set of armor, sweating and dusty, and it seemed to be very hard. Before He Yong's carriage could stop, he quickly came up, opened the car door, and saluted He Yong.

"Yuan Tan has met Mr. Yuan. Some cavalry broke into Yanzhou. The situation was tense. I was in the military and failed to remove my armor. Please forgive me."

Looking at Yuan Tan with dusty face, He Yong became more and more anxious. Yuan Shao was crazy about his heart. Such a good heir had to rush out. He reached out and put his hand on Yuan Tan's arm and slowly got out of the car. In terms of age, he was more than teenager than Yuan Shao and two generations older than Yuan Tan. When Yuan Tan was a few years old, he had seen Yuan Tan. It can be said that he had watched Yuan Tan grow up and had a different relationship than ordinary people.

"What kind of cavalry are they? Did they cause any damage?"

"Fortunately, they just crossed the county and walked around, disturbing people's hearts, and did not launch any attacks. It's just that they acted very quickly, and our cavalry was insufficient to keep up, so they could only mobilize infantry to encircle them on all sides, which inevitably affected the attack on the Black Mountain bandits."

He Yong remembered Xun You's words and suddenly realized it, but he felt ashamed of himself. "Is this Sun Ce's subordinate?"

"Yes." Yuan Tan showed a hint of embarrassment. "The Black Mountain bandits are the remnants of the Yellow Turbans, but Zhang Yan has already paid tribute to the court, so it is reasonable for Zhu Taiwei to send troops to rescue him. However, in this way, the foolish people are inevitably confused and suspected that we will encounter trouble when we go against the court, recruit soldiers and collect taxes. The autumn harvest is approaching, and if we cannot collect money and grain in time, it will be difficult for us to stabilize Yanzhou. Mr. Bo Qiu, you have to help us."

Yuan Tan liked to stick to He Yong's side when he was a child. At this moment, He Yong couldn't bear to refuse. But he couldn't help for a while, so he could only tell Yuan Shao on behalf of Yuan Tan. The fundamental reason for this was that Yuan Shao did not admit that the emperor was the blood of the late emperor, and it was like a break with the court. Therefore, when Xun You suggested that Yuan Shao enter the court to take charge, he refused without thinking.

Because this is simply impossible, entering the court to rule is equivalent to recognizing the authority of the emperor. So what did Yuan Shao do before? With Yuan Shao's personality, what is the difference between this and a slap in the face, he could not agree to it.

But it is impossible not to agree now. If Yuan Shao insists on confronting the court, he will become the target of public criticism. Gongsun Zan, Sun Ce, and Zhang Yan will surrounded Yuan Shao under the command of Zhu Ye, leaving him surrounded by enemies and exhausted from all directions. Those who depend on him certainly have party members with firm beliefs, but more are people who are tempted by the power. Once they find that Yuan Shao has become a public enemy and his strength is not enough to support his ambitions, they will scatter.

"Xiansi, what do you think about your father sending you to Yanzhou?"

Yuan Tan blinked his eyes and showed a little confused. He lowered his head and looked at his toes, like an aggrieved child.

"Mr. Boqiu, I don't quite understand what I did wrong and lost my father's favor. But since my father asked me to come to Yanzhou, I will do my best to protect Yanzhou for my father, even if I die in the battlefield. During the Battle of Jieqiao, my father could personally attack the enemy. As a son, how dare I seek peace and enjoy the fruits of my life."

Yuan Tan raised his head and looked at He Yong, his eyes were filled with tears and his lips trembled. "Sir, can I do this... okay?"

He Yong's nose felt sour, he raised his hand and touched Yuan Tan's face. "Child, you did it right. Don't worry, when I arrive in Yecheng, I will tell your father. Be careful, the battlefield is dangerous, don't be too arrogant. The courage of the general is not to charge, but to take responsibility."

"Here." Yuan Tan burst into tears and smiled, bowed and thanked him.

Xinpi stood in the distance, with a look of indifferent expression, but he picked the corner of his mouth slightly, and a trace of pride flashed away.
