Two flowers bloomed, one on each side. Not to mention that Yuan Xi coaxed and frightened in order to persuade Yuan Shang, Zhao Yun led a troop of soldiers and horses into the city and went straight to the Yuan family's mansion to rescue.
At this moment, at the Yuan family's residence, the reinforcements brought by senior officials were gradually unable to resist, and the rebels led by Wang Er attacked outside the residence.
Almost everyone in the Yuan Mansion was injured and injured. Although everyone was still performing their duties in an orderly manner, it was not difficult to see that everyone had deep fatigue on their faces. They no longer remembered that they had fought. How many times did the enemy attack the house?
The front door of the Yuan Mansion is no longer the same as it used to be. It was all in ruins. As soon as the guards inside the house heard the shouts of killing outside the house, they would numbly pick up the blood-covered swords and broken tiles. The broken spear stabbed the enemy with a cold, indifferent application to all life.
It was not until the enemy was frightened by the killing that they retreated like a tide, then they stopped and sat leaning against the wall, waiting for the medical team led by Hua Tuo to come to treat them. They restored their combat strength as quickly as possible and waited for the enemy's next move. One attack.
Zhang Hong stood at the main entrance of Yuan's Mansion, quietly staring at the devastated Yuan's Mansion, frowning, wondering what he was thinking.
Zuo Ci walked up to Zhang Hong at some point, his face filled with deep fear and sadness.
"Mr. Zhang, tell me about the general, will he...will he send troops back to rescue us?"
Zhang Hong nodded with a smile and said: "Don't worry, Mr. Zuo, my secret guard has informed Xianyi beforehand. He will definitely make the most appropriate arrangements and send people back to assist. You know, he is not For others, he is the lord who never wants to suffer, and he is our favorite lord, so we must trust his decision."
Zuo Ci was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded gently.
Outside the mansion, the troops led by Zhao Yun could faintly see the tall mansion of Yuan Mansion, as well as the rebel troops in front of the mansion who were about to prepare for another attack.
Zhao Yun narrowed his eyes, raised his hand, swung his spear, and shouted loudly to the soldiers behind him: "Brothers! My lord has ordered that all rebels who dare to attack Yuan Mansion shall be killed without leaving a single one alive!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the soldiers and horses behind Zhao Yun begin to rush towards the soldiers in front of the Yuan Mansion's house.
The rebels were about to attack the mansion again when they suddenly heard the sound of killing in the distance. They suddenly became panicked. Under the command of Wang Er, they hurriedly changed their battle formations to defend themselves against the enemy.
Zhao Yun was ready to attack and came fiercely. He fought with the rebels under Wang Er's command and almost defeated them with one blow. The rebels were either dead or injured and fled in panic. Wang Er himself was stabbed to death by Zhao Yun with a single shot. The head was hung in front of the horse to intimidate the remaining rebels, laying the foundation for victory in one fell swoop.
Inside the mansion, Zhao Yun quickly defeated Wang Er's rebel army, which quickly fell into the eyes of everyone in the mansion. The housekeeper of the Yuan mansion rushed into the hall happily and took the Liu family, Zhang Hong, Liu Ye, Gao Gan Please come out and go to the main mansion to watch.
After repelling the rebel army, Zhao Yun made some preparations and went to the door of Yuan Mansion in person. Liu family, Zhang Hong and others personally greeted him. When they met, they couldn't help but feel like they were reincarnated.
"General Zhao Yun, under the orders of the lord, led his troops back to the city to protect his wife. However, he was late and made his wife frightened. I hope Haihan will forgive me!" Zhao Yun saluted.
With the support of Qing'er, Mrs. Liu walked to the mansion with everyone and nodded to Zhao Yun to express her gratitude.
Afraid of Madam Liu's power, Zhao Yun hesitated for a long time and then said: "The general was ordered to come to the rescue. Since Madam is fine, the general will retire first... There are many other rebels in the city. The army has not dealt with it..."
Mrs. Liu also heard Xian Zhiya's intention and did not stop her. She immediately said: "Thank you for your hard work, General Zhao. It is important to deal with the rebels in the city. Please go quickly!"
"promise!"
Yecheng, Tian Feng's mansion.
The crazy attacks are still going on, one after another on the tall walls of Tian Mansion. Corpses and blood are constantly washing the walls. Broken limbs and internal organs are constantly scattered on the originally bustling streets of Yecheng. , it looks particularly eye-catching and out of tune.
This was Xin Ping's fifth attack on Tian Feng's residence tonight. Both sides suffered a huge blow, but no one was willing to relax. One insisted on attacking, and the other defended desperately.
There seems to be a tug-of-war going on on both sides of the wall. Whoever relaxes or softens his hand first will end up with his soul scattered and dead without a burial place.
"Sir, something is wrong!" Just as Xin Ping was preparing to attack Tian Feng Mansion again, he suddenly heard a cry of killing coming from the distance, but saw what seemed to be countless soldiers and horses of Yuan's army swarming from all directions. rushed towards Tian Feng's mansion.
Xin Ping's expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly turned to the guards beside him and said, "Why is this happening? Where is Wang Er? Where is Guo Tu? Where are the reinforcements outside the city? Where are they? Why haven't they appeared yet!?"
Xin Ping's attendant said in a panic: "My lord, just now we have reported that Yuan Xi sent reinforcements from all over the country to reinforce Yecheng. He first captured General Xinpi who was stationed at the west gate waiting for reinforcements from all walks of life, and then blocked him." Several reinforcements were sent to him, and Yuan Shang was persuaded to come forward to capture several rebels under his banner. Therefore, reinforcements never appeared. Wang Er died when he attacked Yuan Mansion. Now, Yuan's army from all directions has moved towards Let’s all come here to kill them!”
"What? How could this happen?" Xin Ping was shocked when he heard this and almost fell down from his horse. He grabbed the guard and roared: "We have already made careful preparations to capture Yecheng this time. There is a lot of rumors, Yuan Xiyuan is confronting Cao Jun in Liyang, how can he make such careful and appropriate arrangements?!"
The guard's face was livid, and he let out a long sigh and said: "Sir, according to the report from the spies... Guo Tu has turned traitor!"
Xin Ping was shocked when he heard this, and his face became even more gloomy.
With trembling lips, he looked straight at Yuan Jun in the distance and rushed to Tian Feng's mansion. A feeling of desolation began to gradually invade his heart.
The guard said nothing when he saw Xin Ping.
He hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Master Xin, this is a crisis, but we cannot stay here for a long time. Let's rush out quickly! My subordinates are willing to risk their lives to protect you from the city!"
Xin Ping gasped, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Leave the city? So what if you leave the city? Are you running for your life in a hurry, wandering around alive, waiting to be caught?"
Hearing this, the guard said anxiously: "You can go south to Zhongzhou and join Prime Minister Cao! Assist Cao Cao to attack Hebei. It will be a shame to lose today with one blood!"
Xin Ping seemed to be interested in hearing this, but in the end he waved his hands tiredly and said: "It's impossible. Cao Cao always chooses people based on their talents. I didn't take them away this time. I went alone. Even if I was taken in, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to do anything. It may not be reused by him. Instead of doing this, it is better to die vigorously and happily in Hebei. Why bother to humiliate him again?"
After saying that, Xin Ping looked up to the sky and sighed, and gave a lonely wry smile, saying: "I thought that I, Xin Ping, was smart all my life, but in the end, I fell into the hands of the villain Guo Tu. It was really God's will... ..The armies have been sent to stop attacking Tian Feng’s mansion. All three armies have gathered together. I want to fight Yuan Xi in a final battle to the death!”
"promise--!"
In this way, on the street in front of Tian Feng Mansion, the rebels and the counter-rebellion troops fought together like a tide, like a landslide and a tsunami, exaggerating a death tribute in Yecheng.
With smoke billowing and dust filling the sky, the prosperous city of Yecheng became a slaughterhouse of abandoned lives, where every living life disappeared invisibly.
A drizzle began to fall from the sky at some point, and it mixed with the blood splattered on the ground. The bright red color seemed to blind people's eyes and chill people's hearts.
Several hours of counter-rebellion battle have finally passed. After everyone's efforts and desperate fighting, the rebellion in the city has basically been wiped out. At this moment, the rebels are at the end of their strength. However, under the leadership of Xin Ping, they are still fighting for their lives. Doing a desperate counterattack.
With the support of Zhu Gongdao, Guo Tu and others, Yuan Xi slowly came to the forefront of the fighting on the street. Looking at Xin Ping, who was covered in blood in the distance and leading less than a dozen people who were still resisting, he couldn't help but sigh. sighed.
One wrong step, one wrong step after another. He was originally a stunning and extraordinary talent, but it was because of his desire for fame and wealth and his own pride that he reached this final step, ending his dazzling life as a pearl. A dusty and misty life.
At this moment, Xin Ping also raised his head and saw Yuan Xi. He put down the long sword in his hand and no longer fought desperately, but just looked at him quietly, as if he was re-examining this man who he had never let go. The second son of the Yuan family in his eyes.
Yuan Xi did not look at Xin Ping. He just raised his head, looked at the drizzle in the sky, and said with emotion: "I have lived a good life these past few months. There is a lot of noise on both sides of the Yellow River, and there are earthquakes and mountains behind the front line." Shake, before I had a decisive battle with Cao Cao, I received two generous gifts from him! First, under the leadership of Chen Gong, the princes of Guanzhong took Bingzhou directly, and then you, Xin Ping, under the instigation of Cao Cao, tried to capture my rear area of Ye. city......"
Xin Ping's face was bloodshot, and he looked at Yuan Shang in the distance with a smile, and said: "Although they are two generous gifts, you were able to break them easily and calmly."
Yuan Xi shook his head and said: "It's easy to defeat the princes in the pass, but to deal with traitors like you, to be honest, if my teacher Zhang Hong and Princess Wannian hadn't let me know about your actions, I'm afraid the outcome today would have been different." Between the two statements! Perhaps it can be said that you won after all!"
Xin Ping laughed loudly when he heard this and said: "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. Now that things have come to this, there is no use talking about God's will. Winning is winning and losing is losing. I, Xin Ping, have never intended to use God's will to do anything for me." Find your own reasons for failure...Yuan Xi, you are good, very good...To this day, I am already dying, but I have to say that you are better than your father and your eldest brother. Not only stronger, but much stronger!”
Yuan Xi sighed, finally lowered his head, glanced at Xin Ping without any emotion, and said: "You were one of the several conspirators under my father in the past, and you made indelible contributions to my father's foundation. Although you rebelled against me today, I can still give you the face and respect you deserve..."
Having said this, Yuan Xi couldn't help but pause, and then resolutely continued: "You, commit suicide!"
"Thank you for your support."
After saying that, Xin Ping put the sword in his hand across his neck and waved it, and the former important minister of Hebei made his final call.
The fighting in the city was over, and all that was left was to clean up the battlefield. The rebel thieves and their family members in the city, including Yuan Shang himself, were all temporarily detained, waiting for Cao's army in Liyang to retreat. Make plans for the next step, because for Yuan Xi now, the top priority is to find a way to repel Cao Cao and completely restore stability to Hebei.
But before discussing this, Yuan Xi needs to return to Yuan Mansion to see his family and friends. Only after making sure that all these people are safe and sound, can he devote all his energy to dealing with Cao Cao.
Although the son wants to be filial but does not treat his relatives, although it is used here with more or less distorted ambiguity, after the battle in Yecheng, Yuan Xi understood more clearly and definitely knew the affection that his relatives and friends had for him. That important meaning.
"Mom~~! My child is unfilial and cannot stay with my mother during the war, which makes my mother suffer!"
When Yuan Xi appeared in front of the main hall of the Yuan Mansion with deep apologies, he saw a group of people sitting in the hall, including the Liu family, Gao Yue, Wannian Princess Liu Yan, Zhen Mi, Zhang Hong, etc., all of them. They were all stunned.
"Child! You...are you back?" Ms. Liu stood up tremblingly and looked at Yuan Xi, who was tired, covered in blood and dirty. Her slightly old eyes, unknowingly, flashed with tears.
"Mom, I'm back! Are you... okay?" Seeing the familiar faces in this hall, a strong sense of warmth rushed into Yuan Xi's heart, and there was something in his words unconsciously. Something trembling.
Mrs. Liu opened her arms and walked towards Yuan Xi step by step. As she walked, she nodded excitedly and choked with sobs: "Mom, I'm fine, Mom, I'm fine..."
"Mother~~!" Yuan Xi's heart softened, the long-lost childishness rushed into his mind, and he was about to throw himself into his mother's arms and cry bitterly.
But she saw that Mrs. Liu's eyes were still shining with tears, but her eyes were obviously a little more angry. She said dissatisfiedly to Yuan Xi: "Mom, it's no wonder that I'm fine~~! Tell me! You unfilial son has been fighting all night. , why are you willing to show up now and leave me alone, why have you gone crazy!?"
"Where can I go? Don't I have to go around to suppress the rebellion! In such a big city, there are rebels only in our Yuan Mansion. As the lord, don't I have to go around to coordinate the battle?" Yuan Xi said dissatisfied to one side. complained to Mr. Liu.
Gao Yue, Cai Yan, and Princess Wannian were all frightened and could not recover for several days. Yuan Rui and Yuan Zheng were still young. Although they were scared to death at the time, they gradually forgot about it after giving them some sweets and pastries to coax them. Accompanied by their servants, they chased and played around the garden as if nothing happened. Didn't happen.
Especially Yuan Rui, his eyes are not timid, but more light and sharp, a bit like the eyes of an eagle.
Is he really worthy of being the later Emperor Jin Ming?
Yuan Rui said to Yuan Xi: "Father, my mother told me that even if a steel knife is placed on my neck, I have to grit my teeth and hold on. Knock out the teeth and swallow the blood. Swallow it into your stomach and don't cry. The child's father is a hero. When a child grows up, he should be like his father and be an upright man on the battlefield. My mother said - "
These words shocked Yuan Xi. Yuan Rui, who was three or four years old, obviously did not understand the real intention of his mother's teachings to him. The key is that Zhen Mi, this extraordinary mother, has begun to teach her children how to become leaders.
night.
Trainer Bu couldn't stand the silence of the night anymore. He paced on the ground between the door and the bed, his heart burning with eagerness to see Yuan Xi. For half a year, I almost didn’t see him.
This mood continued unabated for three or four days, and formed a regular cycle. During the day, she was with the maids, and the maids' innocence and obedience constantly diluted or cut off her thoughts; at night, That kind of emotion covered me like a tide, making it difficult to sleep. It is not only the sexual excitement of an adult young woman, but also mixed with infinite worries and unreliability.
There is also Yuan Shang's suicide by drinking poisoned wine. It is uncertain whether Yuan Xi will turn his anger on him.
If Yuan Xi comes, he can at least make her feel safe. As for whether there was love in this, she couldn't tell clearly. She just felt an inexplicable heartache.
Soon Yuan Xi came to Trainer Bu's inner house without saying a word.
Tears welled up in Trainer Bu's eyes, and he touched Yuan Xi's chest with a delicate brocade handkerchief, trying his best to please him. Still feeling tired, he undressed Yuan Xi, helped him get on the bed, and went to Wushan together.
The infinite lingering tenderness extends from the bulging and affectionate chest to the smooth jade-like legs, hiding infinite love and tenderness. Perhaps out of guilt or to make amends, she tried her best to satisfy Yuan Xi's demands.
Yuan Xi silently enjoyed Master Bu's gentleness, but still didn't say much. His heart was as complex as an unsolvable chess game, and he was still a little hesitant and confused?
My step trainer, do you love me or not? Why do you want to cooperate with the old thief Cao Cao to harm me?
Perhaps sensing Yuan Xi's abnormality, Trainer Bu silently hugged Yuan Xi's back from behind and pressed against him tightly.
Yuan Xi was suffocated by her tightness, and the Bu trainer gave him unprecedented pleasure. When he rode on her delicate body, he was racing like a wild horse regardless of everything.
But she prayed to God countless times in her heart, hoping that Yuan Shang's matter had nothing to do with her. Otherwise, how can I tolerate betraying me?
Trainer Bu, what benefits did Cao Cao give you, and you want to betray me? At this time, Yuan Xi's heart howled wildly.
