Because Yuan Xi lives in Mi's house, Mi Zhen has been in the small building for three days and cannot go out.
She looked at Yuan Xi's figure from a distance, but because he was too far away, she couldn't see clearly. She only felt that his figure was upright, and there was a chilling air in his movements, which was quite different from other members of ordinary aristocratic families.
She was also a little curious about Yuan Xi's origins and asked the maids around her. When they came back, the maids around them were vague and said they didn't even find out their names.
Because Yuan Xi visited Xuzhou secretly, except for a few core officials of Liu Bei, no one else knew his identity. Yuan Xi came to live in Mi's house, and Mi Zhu only told the servants that he was a distinguished guest from afar to cover it up. Naturally, these maids Can't find out.
Mi Zhen thought to herself that she didn't know how many days this person would stay. If he stayed for ten and a half days, wouldn't he have to be bored in the small building all the time?
Moreover, this man was still fishing for his favorite koi carp. Watching the poor fish being picked up and thrown back one after another, Mi Zhen felt some resentment in her brows.
The door of Mi's house opened in the distance. Mi Zhen took a quick look and immediately became happy. Mi Fang was back!
This time, the Mi family's caravan had an important batch of goods. Mi Fang went out to take care of it herself. It took half a month to go back and forth. It seemed that it was handled properly.
Mi Zhen looked happy. Although his two brothers, Mi Zhu and Mi Zhen, were very kind to him, Mi Zhu was, firstly, old, and secondly, as Liu Bei's farewell, he was usually busy with affairs and could rarely talk to Mi Zhen.
However, Mi Fang managed the business all year round and had a lot of time. She also doted on Mi Zhen, her younger sister, and the two had a good relationship.
Mi Zhen saw Mi Fang hurriedly walking toward her small building with some servants, but stopped when she passed the pond on the way.
Then Mi Zhen saw Mi Fang go up to question him, but the young master didn't even bother to answer a few words because he was far away and couldn't hear what the two were arguing about.
Suddenly, Mi Fang stepped forward and was about to grab the young master's shoulder. The young master's guard next to him stretched out his hand to twist Mi Fang's arm and pinned him to the ground.
This time, the domestic slaves brought by Mi Fang shouted and surrounded him, but they were beaten to the ground by the guard with a single punch.
When Mi Zhen saw that Mi Fang was still being pinned to the ground, her face turned pale and she hurriedly ran out of the small building. The maid hurriedly followed behind.
Yuan Xi held the fishing rod and listened to Mi Fang on the ground yelling and cursing. He thought to himself that this is the legendary brother-in-law Mi Fang who tricked Guan Yu to death?
It seems that this person really has a bad temper. He is here to catch a fish. He doesn't know why he offended him. He doesn't even ask who he is. He just wants his slaves to tie him up. It's strange that he can't do bad things with this kind of temper. .
He walked up to Mi Fang. Mi Fang struggled desperately, raised her head and shouted at Yuan Xi: "Where did you come from? How dare you act wild in the Mi family!"
"Do you know the power of my Mi family in Xuzhou!"
Yuan Xi shook his head and said: "Brother Zizhong (Mi Zhu) is a generous man, how come he has such an obscure brother like you?"
"You don't even think about it, I can fish here, how can you just provoke me in vain?"
Mi Zhu shouted: "What a white body, I am also a noble!"
Mi Fang's words are correct. Mi Zhu is an official. Although the Mi family is a businessman, they are considered to have a relationship with the gentry, but they have no real background.
Yuan Xi smiled and said: "Not to mention being reasonable in doing things, if you try to act like a nobleman in front of me, I'm afraid you are not qualified."
After hearing this, Mi Fang said disdainfully: "What a loud tone, how can you compare to our Mi family?"
After hearing this, Yuan Xi smiled and said, "Your name is Mi Fang, with the courtesy name Zifang, right?"
Mi Fang said proudly: "Since you know my name, why don't you let me go quickly!"
Yuan Xi shook his head. Mi Fang's personality and IQ were far inferior to those of his brother Mi Zhu. It seemed that he was accustomed to acting recklessly because of his family's wealth.
No wonder later generations were fooled by Guan Yu and created an unsolved case that has eluded everyone for thousands of years.
He had a headache. Even if he beat Mi Zhu to death, Liu Bei probably wouldn't care about it, but the relationship with the Mi family would be forged.
The Mi family has a lot of business connections in Xuzhou, which are still very useful to Yuan Xi.
While he was hesitating, he heard a timid female voice say: "Master, can you let go of my brother? If you have offended me in any way, please let me apologize for my brother."
Yuan Xi turned his head following the voice and saw a young girl standing not far away in luxurious clothes and a very attractive color.
Yuan Xi looked carefully and saw that his skin color was very white, his facial features were very straight, and he looked delicate and three-dimensional. His eyes were big and dark, as if he could talk.
In terms of appearance alone, although she is not as good as Zhen Mi, she is still a first-rate beauty.
Yuan Xi thought to himself, could this be the legendary Mi family?
I think this Mi family was also a beauty but had a bad fate. In the novel, she fell into a well and died, but in the history of later generations, her end may be even more miserable.
After marrying Liu Bei, Mi was probably not very favored. There are only a few records about her, and she seems to have disappeared around the time of the Battle of Changban.
Some people speculated that he might have died of illness.
Some people also speculate that she might have been captured by Cao Cao when Liu Bei was defeated, and she became Cao Cao's concubine. It was a taboo for later generations, so the history books are unclear.
When the girl saw Yuan Xi staring at her, she shrank in fear, lowered her head and whispered softly: "I usually like the koi in this pond the most. Brother, I must have offended him after watching him fishing and saying a few words. Please forgive me."
Mi Fang snorted coldly: "Little sister, I'm fine, go back quickly, how can you bow to such a person!"
Yuan Xi thought that Mi Fang was really an Adou who couldn't help him up. He winked at Tai Shi Ci, who understood, let go of his hand, and took a few steps back to Yuan Xi.
Mi Zhen saw it and breathed a sigh of relief.
Mi Fang got up in embarrassment and shouted to herself: "If you dare to act wild in our Mi family, get out now!"
Yuan Xi shook his head, thinking that if the Zhen family and the Mi family cooperated in the trade route, if there was such a lack of brains in the way, how many things would be wasted.
Mi Zhen hurriedly took a few steps forward, pulled Mi Fang's sleeves, and whispered: "Brother, this is the guest invited back by the eldest brother!"
"You just offended General Guan a few days ago, you'd better control your temper!"
Mi Fang couldn't lose her temper for a moment, but she didn't want to give in. She didn't want to leave, nor did she stay still.
When Yuan Xi heard Mi Zhen's words, he thought that Mi Fang had offended Guan Yu, so he was really talented.
Mi Zhen stood behind Mi Fang, secretly sizing up Yuan Xi, and saw that he had a handsome appearance, and except for a slightly less beard, he was considered a talented person.
Yuan Xi grew up like this because of the inheritance of Yuan Shao, a famous and beautiful man in the world.
Yuan Xi suddenly smiled slightly: "The girl is talking about Guan Yunchang, the other commander of Xuande Gong's side?"
"That's a heroic figure."
Mi Fang took a sip: "What kind of hero is he? He stared at my little sister with a pair of evil eyes. I scolded him a few times, and he even took out a knife to scare me!"
Yuan Xi thought to himself that he was so bloody?
Is it useless for you to complain to me?
Moreover, Mi Fang, don't you reflect on how you offended everyone you met?
Mi Fang said proudly, "But that guy didn't end well. I heard he was defeated in Qingzhou and his arm was injured. He hasn't recovered yet."
"You see, anyone who offends me, Mi Fang, will become unfortunate!"
"Hahaha!"
Yuan Xi looked at Mi Fang with a look of compassion, thinking that a mentally retarded child would be so happy.
He pointed at Tai Shici and said with a smile: "The wound on General Guan's arm was caused by my brother."
When Mi Fang and Mi Zhen heard this, her eyes widened in surprise.
Mi Fang took two steps forward. Yuan Xi thought he was going to do something, but Mi Fang laughed loudly and said, "I see, you didn't tell me earlier!"
Yuan Xi thought to himself that Mi Fang is quite smart, she guessed her identity right away!
Just as he was about to introduce himself as a show of force, he saw Mi Fang passing him, taking two steps forward, holding Tai Shici's hand, and shouted: "Strong man!"
"You are amazing!"
"Then Guan Yu is said to be an enemy of ten thousand people, but you were able to shoot and wound him. You must have succeeded in a sneak attack in the dark!"
"I'm attracted to you!"
"How can you have any future if you become a bodyguard with this person now?"
"I'll give you three times, no, five times, no, ten times the price!"
"As long as you are willing to be my guard, my Mi family will have plenty of money!"
Yuan Xi was stunned.
Taishi Ci was also stunned.
So popular!
Yuan Xi smiled at Tai Shici and said, "Congratulations to my sworn brother."
"Everyone heard it, ten times the price."
"How much is the salary of my sworn brother?"
"Ten times the salary, what official position should I change it to?"
Taishi Ci smiled bitterly and said, "Master, please stop making fun of me."
The Sima of the other department paid one thousand two hundred stones, which was ten times the price, which was higher than that of Sangong.
Mi Fang and Mi Zhen looked at each other, and Mi Fang realized something was wrong.
The guards opposite are all officials, obviously not ordinary scholars!
Mi Zhen quickly pulled the corner of Mi Fang's clothes, and the latter took a few steps back, speechless for a moment.
Mi Fang realized that someone who could fish so brazenly in his own mansion was not an ordinary person!
He began to feel a little at a loss, "What is your surname, Sir?"
Mi Fang is just crazy, but not stupid. When the Mi family is gradually entering the circle of nobles, no matter how stupid he is, he will not offend the person in front of him who is likely to come from a wealthy family.
Yuan Xi smiled and said: "My surname is Yuan."
Mi Fang thought for a while and suddenly said: "Are you from the same clan as Yuan Huan?"
Yuan Xi shook his head and said: "He is the Yuan family of Chen County and has little to do with me."
He suddenly remembered that during the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, only three people, Cheng Yu, Cao Ren, and Yuan Huan, were evaluated as brave.
Calculating it this way, Liu Bei actually had a lot of talented people at this time, but they were successively dispersed by Lu Bu and Cao Cao. The subordinates he finally recruited all made wedding dresses for others, which is really embarrassing to think about.
After hearing this, Mi Fang realized that he was just a member of the side branch, but he had a lot of arrogance. When he wanted to speak, he saw Mi Zhu hurried over in the distance.
Yuan Xi beat Mi Fang violently, and a servant had already gone to notify Mi Zhu. When he heard about it, he was so frightened that he rushed back from the official residence.
When Mi Zhu saw that even Mi Zhen had come out, his heart suddenly thought of the rumors about Yuan Xi's lust, and he immediately imagined a big drama in his mind.
Yuan Xi looked down on those vulgar maids, so he didn't know he saw Mi Zhen, so he stepped forward to be rude. Mi Fang saw this and came to stop her, but was beaten violently!
His face turned bitter, this was bad!
He quickly bowed and said: "Please let me go, sir. Zhu is grateful!"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Mi Zhu suddenly felt that it would be great if Mi Zhen could really marry Yuan Xi?
