He didn't tell Yuan Tan what happened to Gao Lan last night. It was a bad thing in the first place, so let Yuan Tan have a headache.
Besides, since the two of them had just formed an alliance, Yuan Tan would not do anything to him, but Yuan Xi did not expect that something would happen to the people in the city!
He said to Wu Zhao: "You go inside and hide first to avoid any accidents."
Wu Zhao said softly: "Under the overturned nest, are there any intact eggs?"
Yuan Xi laughed and said, "That's the same reason."
He suddenly remembered, wasn't this what his youngest son said when Kong Rong was killed?
It seems that this statement has long been popular.
He took Wu Zhaosun Li and walked to the gate of the mansion. He found that the door was locked. Zhao Yun and Qu Yi rushed over, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Yuan Xi thought for a while and said, "Open the door."
The people outside were noisy and started to retreat involuntarily when they saw the door open.
Yuan Xi walked out slowly. The people looked at each other and slowly became quiet.
Yuan Xi cupped his hands and said, "Do you have any grievances?"
"Or have I, Yuan Xi, done something sorry for you?"
Common people, look at me and I look at you. I was speechless for a moment. Finally, someone in the crowd shouted: "Is the Young Master about to leave?"
After hearing this, everyone shouted out one after another, their voices rising and falling one after another.
After hearing this, Yuan Xi said, "I want to go back to my hometown."
The voice sounded again, "Is the young master not coming back anymore?"
The crowd shouted again in confusion.
Yuan Xi stretched out his hand and pressed it down, and the crowd became quiet again.
Yuan Xi said: "I will come back as soon as possible."
"Before that, I will ask General Zhao and my eldest brother to take charge of this place. Please don't worry."
He originally thought that the crowd would be satisfied and disperse, but the expressions on their faces became even more tangled.
There were chaotic sounds.
"What if the young master doesn't come back?"
"Sir, are you going to abandon us?"
"Who else would be so kind to us except the young master?"
"Sir, please don't lie to us."
"We want to follow the young master back."
"Wherever the young master goes, we will go."
“Wherever the young master goes, we will go!”
Slowly, the voices merged into one.
“Wherever the young master goes, we will go!”
The sound became louder and louder, spreading through the entire mansion like a wave and echoing over Beixin City.
In the room in the city lord's palace, Yuan Tan and Xun Chen sat opposite each other, looking solemn as they listened to the calls coming in.
Xun Chen sighed: "I still underestimated the second young master."
"Only this matter of the people's hearts will make him as good as the Lord."
Yuan Tan still has something wrong in his mind.
My second brother is not simple, he is also a threat!
He asked aloud: "Does the second brother not want to leave and encourage the people to put on a show for us?"
Xun Chen shook his head: "It doesn't look like it, and it's not necessary."
"Besides, the Second Young Master should have already learned about marrying the daughter of the Zhen family. Although the Zhen family has fallen, it has a lot of background, which is a big help. The Second Young Master will not fail to go back."
"Although Madam and Mr. Yuan Shang will definitely not let him get his wish."
Yuan Tan whispered: "Why is the third brother so afraid of the second brother?"
Xun Chen whispered: "This matter is quite secretive. I guess it is probably related to some prophecies and the Second Young Master's accurate prediction of the rebellion in Yecheng."
Yuan Tan was surprised and said: "The rebellion in Yecheng? How is this possible!"
Xun Chen sighed: "I don't know how the second young master did it. Maybe there are experts behind it."
"My lord didn't believe it at first, but he took some precautions, so the Montenegrin army was quickly repulsed."
"In this way, Jizhou also had more troops to suppress the surrounding states, which led to Cao Cao's hesitation in sending troops this year and his delay in attacking Xuzhou."
"After hearing about this, the Lord often praised the second young master, which aroused the third young master's vigilance."
"The Third Young Master is in charge of Jizhou affairs, and the Beixin City side has done a lot of secretly to support the grain and grass supply."
"Of course, this should be just one of the reasons, and the reason is not that simple."
Yuan Tan heard this and said, "Then let's reveal the inside story to our second brother?"
Xun Chen smiled and said: "After Mr. Yuan returns to Yecheng, he will know sooner or later. We don't need to interfere in such trivial matters."
"What I'm worried about is, why did Gao Lan disappear?"
Yuan Tan nodded and said, "When I learned the news last night, I thought my second brother was going to attack us."
Xun Chen said: "I was a little surprised at first, but then I thought about it, it would be useless for the second young master to attack me, and a thousand soldiers and horses are nothing."
"The spies in the military camp reported that Gao Lan left the camp on his own. He should have discovered something urgent."
"Gao Lan took refuge with the Third Young Master. He was also shrewd and did not use soldiers and horses. Otherwise, the First Young Master and the Second Young Master would report to the lord and accuse him of having different intentions, which would be detrimental to the Third Young Master and give him a false excuse."
Yuan Tan agreed, "Gao Lan did respond quickly and quickly. He should have caused a lot of trouble for his second brother, but I don't know what the outcome will be."
Xun Chen said: "Two possibilities."
"First, Gao Lan ran away, and second, he was stopped."
"If it's the former, the second young master won't be so calm."
"So Gao Lan was most likely killed."
Yuan Tan worried: "If a general in Gaolan District dies, he will die, but will the second brother use this to our disadvantage and fall on our heads?"
Xun Chen smiled and said: "Probably not. The benefits of joining forces with the eldest son are far greater than Gao Lan."
Yuan Tan breathed a sigh of relief, "My second brother puts a lot of pressure on me. I can't guess what he is thinking."
Xun Chen thought to himself, "Me too, Yuan Xi has changed so much in the past three years!"
I hope that the cooperation between Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi is not about seeking skin from a tiger.
Yuan Tan looked at Xun Chen, and suddenly his confidence returned.
He also has the support of many advisers, but he is still afraid of a lonely Yuan Xi?
His real enemy is his third brother Yuan Shangcai!
If he and Yuan Shang fight, it will damage the strength of the Yuan family to a certain extent, but as long as they compete, they can integrate the Yuan family and compete for world hegemony!
Now that the Yuan family has achieved great success, besides Yuan Shu, there are some threats in the world. Who else can compete with the Yuan family?
The second brother understood the situation and retreated first. In the future, I would be worthy of him by giving him an extra state.
This world must be held in one's own hands!
At this time, the voices of the people outside the house became louder and louder.
"Master, please take us away!"
Zhao Yun and Wu Zhao had not been in Beixin City for a long time. They were very touched when they saw this scene. They did not expect that Yuan Xi's reputation in the city was so high!
Wu Zhaoxin said that Yuan Xi had been thinking about raising Wang all day long. Isn't this half the story?
Fame among nobles is a matter of hope, and fame among common people is also a matter of hope!
Being famous among the nobles can gain support and dependence from the nobles, and obtain counselors, money and food.
And if you are famous among the people, you can get the support of white generals and soldiers, because most of them come from the people.
How to balance the two and then compete for hegemony is a question that one of the princes must consider.
For the people of Beixin City, it would be best for Yuan Xi to stay, but if he wanted to focus on competing for hegemony in the world, he would have to leave and go to Yecheng to plan the layout.
But if you cannot give the people a satisfactory reason, you will lose the hearts of Beixin City and affect your popularity in the future.
Qu Yi, Zhao Yun, Wu Zhao, Sun Li, and Yuan Tan Xun Chen, who were watching coldly, all wanted to see what Yuan Xi was going to do.
Yuan Xi waved his arms and shouted: "Everyone, please listen to me!"
The crowd slowly fell silent.
"You have gone too far!" Yuan Xi shouted.
Everyone was stunned immediately.
Angry?
Yuan Xi shouted.
"I'm twenty years old!"
"When you are twenty years old, your children can already walk on the ground!"
"I'm not married yet!"
"I just want to go home and ask for a wife. Is that wrong?"
"Is it wrong?"
Yuan Xi's shouts echoed in the city.
Everyone was stunned for a while, then burst into laughter and shouted in unison.
"Young Master is right!"
