At the end of the fifth year of Jian'an (200).
After a year of traveling, fighting, and overcoming numerous obstacles, Yuan Xi and his men finally successfully returned to Yecheng, the base of the Yuan family in Hebei.
There is an old saying: Those who have access to the capital must live in a pass, and there must be a cockcrow on the road to a pass.
Although Yecheng is not considered a capital city, its size, breadth of city, and population are no less than any ancient capital.
In some places, it is even worse than the two capitals: Luoyang and Chang'an.
From the Battle of Guandu to the present, counting on his fingers, the journey along the way has been really long. Before Yuan Xi knew it, a full year had passed!
Now we can see the towering city walls of Yecheng. Under the scorching sun, they are emitting strong golden light. Its thick and simple classical momentum makes people feel awe. It is indeed a big city! It will also be one of the accompanying capitals of the Yuan family in the future.
"Finally, we're home!" Yuan Xi rode on the horse and roared to the sky to release the excitement in his chest.
This time, after Yuan Xi returned to Xudu to handle government affairs, he took Cao Xian and Xia Houwei to his hometown of Yecheng. Only here could he feel absolutely safe, just like Gao Huan, Emperor Xianwu of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
Behind him, Xu Chu and Zhu Gongdao were also filled with emotions, and their emotions could not be contained. They looked at each other and saw the unconcealed joy and heroic ambition in each other's eyes.
After wandering around for a long time in the Central Plains, not only did they not lose their lives, but they also returned to their homeland. This was unexpected for them.
Even though the two generals had already put life and death at risk, at this moment, they still felt a trace of emotion that could not be expressed in words.
Life is like this, don’t ask for it anymore!
In addition to the main characters, Yuan Jun's soldiers were also in agitated and high-spirited moods. Some of them were weak-minded and even shed hot tears.
At this moment, some people among the crowd were feeling uneasy.
In the carriage behind Yuan Xi, Xia Houwei's face was a little pale, her body was twisting back and forth anxiously, her delicate little eyes were looking around, and her sight was wandering, which just reflected her current messy mood.
Although Xia Houwei had adopted a happy-go-lucky attitude before, in the final analysis, her surname was Xia Hou after all!
The Yuan family and the Cao family currently have sworn hatred. Although Yuan Xi treats her well and has never had any ill intentions, at this moment, the entire Ye City is controlled by the surname Yuan.
If she enters Yecheng, what will her fate be in the future? What attitude will Yuan Xi and others have towards her? Will she be accommodated? Imprison her? Kill her? Or banish her? Everything is unknown.
Human beings are fragile animals and have always been extremely nervous about unknown things.
Even Xia Houwei, who had always lived in innocence, could not help but tremble slightly when facing the unknown future.
A cold feeling that she had never experienced since she was a child poured out from head to toe, and the cold chill covered her fragile heart.
At this moment, a gentle big hand stretched out from nowhere and gently shook Xiahou Wei from the edge of the carriage.
He gently placed her in front of his horse. The owner of his hands held the reins on both sides, hugged Xia Houwei tenderly, slapped the horse to the side, and galloped away.
"Ah——!" Xia Houwei was frightened by this sudden situation, and hurriedly leaned back gently, clinging tightly to the broad chest surrounding her.
"Qingyi, I see you are a little disappointed. How about taking my BMW for a ride?" A slightly smiling voice sounded softly in Xia Houwei's ears.
Xia Houwei, the daughter of Xiahou Dun, was given the courtesy name Qingyi.
Xia Houwei turned her head, and what came into view was Yuan Xi's face with a smile like the sun.
The smile was full of kindness and concern, without the cunning and cunning that usually showed up when he was doing bad things.
Xia Houwei's face turned red, she lowered her head and let Yuan Xi hug her and gallop away.
"Qingyi, something seems wrong with you?" Yuan Xi said to her with a smile while riding the horse.

He swept away the hair that was blown by the wind on his forehead with his hand, and said anxiously: "It's nothing, it's just that when I arrived in Yecheng, I was a little confused and didn't know how to deal with myself in the future."
"Hey! What's the wind blowing today? Why are you so sentimental?" Yuan Xi said happily.
Xia Houwei pursed her lips and smiled, then returned her hand and gently tapped Yuan Xi's chest with her elbow to express her dissatisfaction.
Yuan Xi didn't take it seriously and said: "Actually, there isn't that much to think about. You can continue to live how you want to live. No one will do anything to you because your surname is Xiahou. You are the woman I brought back. , I am naturally obligated to let you settle down, you don’t have to think too much, just treat it as a visit to Yecheng to relax. After a period of time, when it stabilizes, I will naturally find a way to send someone to send you back, Yuan The grudge against Cao will not affect your lives, I promise you."
"Uh, um, I understand, I understand."
Xia Houwei was stunned when he heard this, obviously not expecting Yuan Xi to say such words.
Gently snuggling into his arms, feeling the masculine aura on his body, Xia Houwei suddenly felt something in her heart for some unknown reason.
As long as this man is by your side, even if the sky is about to fall, it is not a terrible thing. As for trivial matters such as being taken to Yecheng, it is not worth mentioning.
"Xianyi..." Xia Houwei leaned into Yuan Xi's arms and called softly.
"Um?"
"You're not all an annoying bastard sometimes."
Yuan Xi: "..." "Thank you so much!!!"
Xia Houwei's tone was very light, but after hearing these words, Yuan Xi's heart felt like a heavy hammer.
Even this innocent girl who grew up in a honey pot has doubts about his morality. It seems that she really needs to review her character. Am I really that bad? At least he should be stronger than Cao Cao. But it’s hard to say! ! !
Not far from the team, Cao Xian was riding on a horse, watching Yuan Xi carrying Xia Houwei on his horse. For some reason, a sour feeling suddenly filled his heart.
What's wrong with me?
Cao Xian couldn't help but ask herself secretly in her heart, she is the queen of Cao Cao and the daughter of Prime Minister Cao. She takes saving Xu Du's family as her own duty, how can she care too much about other things!
People who are immersed in the flames of hatred do not need any other emotions. As long as the raging flames burn themselves until their lives are consumed, this is enough!
This truth was set by Cao Xian for herself, but at this moment, this truth that accompanied her was slowly and unknowingly broken by someone.
Cao Xian really couldn't turn her eyes away from the flying horse, as if those eyes were not her own and she couldn't control them no matter what she did.
I'm so crazy!
Cao Xian shook his head heavily and threw all these thoughts behind his mind. He looked towards the direction of Yecheng with all his heart, as if he wanted to figure out what could stop him from falling further from the tall and towering city wall. medicine for wounds.
Although the land in Hebei is covered with snow, the General's Mansion in Yecheng is decorated with lanterns and colorful lights, creating a joyful atmosphere.
In September of this year, Princess Wannian gave birth to a baby boy, named Yuan Yong. The next month, Gao Yue gave birth to another baby boy, named Yuan Mu. Later in the same month, Zhen Mi gave birth to her third baby boy, named Yuan Rui.
Heirs are particularly important to a big family. It was not until this time that the world really regarded Yuan Xi as the person who founded the family. The daughter of Diao Xiuer and Tang Ji does not count. At this time, Yuan Xi's harem battle has come to an end with the victory of Princess Wannian.
At the same time, Yuan Xi also asked Xia Houwei to persuade Xiahou Dun.
In the end, due to Xia Houwei's persuasion and concerns about the safety of the Cao family's bloodline, Xiahou Dun reluctantly stayed in Yecheng and settled down, although he did not serve Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi really likes his father-in-law Xiahou Dun. He has never won a battle and has never been promoted. This is fate. Whether it is Cao Wei in history or the Jin Dynasty in this time and space, Xiahou Dun eventually rose to the rank of general. This guy is indeed Blessed general.
After that, Yuan Xi held a banquet with all the ministers and made a series of rewards. He talked happily with the ministers. We didn't leave until dusk. Yuan Xi finally had time to reunite with his family for a while.

321Grief
The three ladies held a banquet in the back hall. It was just a family dinner, no outsiders. Several children, several wives.
There are nine short tables in the hall. The main seat facing the door is of course Yuan Xi's. On both sides of the carpet, facing each other, there are six rooms, three ladies and two concubines. There is only one seat left, which should be the step trainer.
But--
"Husband—" Zhen Mi's expression suddenly changed.
Even Cai Yan and Tang Ji felt a little unnatural.
"Husband, you may have another heir -" Zhen Mi's voice became lower and lower, too low to be heard. Yin Ya bit her lower lip, unable to speak.
"What do you mean?" Yuan Xi asked in surprise.
Gao Yue sighed and said: "Husband, let me tell you the truth - Master Bu, I gave you a daughter."
"Master Bu——" Yuan Xi took a breath of air.
He was stunned for a long time and uttered two words: "Daughter, then the child should be one year old."
Really or not, there really are such coincidences in the world. What can we do? Bu Lianshi collaborated with the enemy to treason, murdered Cai Yan, and might even be the murderer of Yuan Shang.
Most likely, she should have had an affair with Yuan Shang. She actually gave birth to a daughter. There is no DNA test in this era, so how would he know if it was his child. Recognizing relatives by shedding blood is pure nonsense.
"Where is she?" Yuan Xi said coldly.
Princess Taiping Liu Yan was embarrassed and said: "She murdered sister Zhaoji, and I had her locked up."
"What about the child?" Yuan Xi asked.
Luzhu stood up and said, "Husband, don't worry, the child is with me, and I will take good care of her, as long as you trust me."
She loved children the most, and this time, her wish came true. However, the beauty Luzhu later died due to dystocia.
@开户gao Yue sat upright and said seriously: "Although she is locked up, she is not aggrieved. She has three meals a day and daily expenses are still as per the previous rules. She is just not allowed to move around at will."
When Gao Yue spoke, his pair of bright black eyes kept looking at Yuan Xi, sensitively accepting the changes in his expression, hoping to get his inner message. But she was disappointed. Yuan Xi didn't give her any message because he hadn't thought about it yet.
"Hey, why did that sister do this? And why did she have to suffer?" Cai Yan said with compassion.
"This -" Gao Yue turned to look at me, meaning to let Yuan Xi make up his mind.
Yuan Xi thought to herself that she originally wanted to give her death, but she gave birth to a daughter. If she died, wouldn't the child be without a mother?
Besides, he had doubts about Yuan Shang, so he had to ask to get to the bottom of it.
"First, wait, wait until I see her -"
Tang Ji and Feng Heng were left feeling quite embarrassed.
Yuan Xi smiled bitterly and said, "Wugu, what do you think I should do?"
Gao Yue seemed to have been thinking for a long time and blurted out: "Mingzhengdian punishment. Such a thing cannot happen in the general's palace. If it is tolerated, everyone will live in fear in the future. No one can think of peace of mind. It doesn't matter if it harms us. If If you harm your husband and his children, won’t you end the incense of the Yuan family?”
Lu Zhu timidly said: "Husband, madam, please spare her life. She also has a daughter."
Zhen Mi picked up a glass of wine, covered it with her sleeve, drank it in one gulp, and said calmly: "I'll let my husband decide everything."
It's just like Gao Yue said, if this hole is opened, everyone will learn to harm others in the future.
Yuan Xi stood up and left his seat: "I'll go meet and ask clearly."
These days, Master Bu couldn't resist the tremendous pressure coming from the depths of his soul. She chooses to sleep to escape. But the dreams I have are also unbearable cruel nightmares——
On this night, the moon had just risen above the willow branches, and the clear moonlight cast a veil over the yard.
@First sight, it’s so beautiful. The whole Yuan Mansion was buzzing with gongs and drums, and fireworks were blasting.
Trainer Bu listened blankly. Suddenly someone shouted in the yard: "General, you are back. The general won the battle and unified the north. He is really proud of his ancestors."
Trainer Bu was startled and immediately understood what was going on!
"He defeated Cao Cao, haha——"
Suddenly she felt (this chapter is not over yet!)
321Grief
A string of sparks burst out from a certain part of her body, and it felt as soft as melting into water, forcing her to desperately rush out of the door and pull the door open with both hands.
From outside the door, the servant scolded coldly: "Be honest, you are a prisoner on death row, you don't want to live anymore."
"I am a death row prisoner. I am a death row prisoner - who imprisoned me, who?" Bu Lianshi fell to the ground and twitched and trembled.
When Yuan Xi opened the door, he saw a crazy woman with disheveled hair, unconsciousness, and hysteria. She cried and laughed at other times. She was shocked at first, and then sighed again.
Trainer Bu rushed in front of Yuan Xi and shouted: "Who are you? Yuan Xi? You hurt me! You hurt me! You hurt my father, you hurt my daughter, you took away everything from me, I hate you."
Yuan Xi said silently, "Why are you doing this? Wake up—"
"The child is the mother, call her mother -" Diao Chan stroked her head and said crazily again.
At this moment, Yuan Xi felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart. He held Master Bu's face in his hands. His rosy lips were of the right thickness, delicate and smooth. Each of them was filled with all kinds of tenderness and charm. The teasing Yuan Xi couldn't help but be fascinated. Although disheveled, he is still graceful. However, she is crazy, and Trainer Bu is crazy——
Who is the culprit: Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun, Lu Bu, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, or Yuan Xi. Or, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. This is still the way of the world where people eat people and don’t spit out bones.
Yuan Xi saw her crying, and then ordered the servant behind him: "Take her back and let her take a look at your daughter."
Forget it, forget it, forget it all. This kind of madness cannot be cured by Hua Tuo. This was mentioned in the medical scriptures, and Yuan Xi could not help her. In fact, being crazy is not a bad thing for her. Maybe she will relax and no longer carry a heavy burden.
A beautiful face, a tragic and turbulent experience. Master Bu has only experienced misery in his life, but he has never enjoyed happiness.
Yuan Xi was speechless at this ending. Trainer Bu suddenly went crazy and disrupted his plan. It was even more difficult to know the details of Yuan Shang's matter from the only insider.
Bu Lianshi's maid spy had long since escaped without a trace.
As for the daughter, she should be fostered with Luzhu. Anyway, she is eager to have a child. This time I got what I wanted. My daughter is very beautiful, smart and loves to laugh.
Yes, is it possible that Master Bu's daughter is not stunningly beautiful? Then there was another sigh of helplessness! ! God's will, God's will. .
Xiahou Mansion.
On this day, Yuan Mai came to Xiahou Dun on the order of his brother Yuan Xi.
I saw Yuan Mai standing up in a hurry and saying: "Uncle, Yuan Mai has something to ask for, please uncle."
Xiahou Dun was slightly stunned when he heard this and said, "What's the matter?"
"I have heard for a long time that my uncle is a brave and unrivaled warrior. Now that I have met my uncle, Yuan Mai hopes to learn from him and hope that my uncle will do the same."
"Oh?" After hearing Yuan Mai's words, Xiahou Dun's eyes suddenly flashed with light. He didn't expect that the fifth young master of the Yuan family would actually take the initiative to ask for lessons from him. This request was really beyond his expectation.
Xiahou Dun laughed and said, "Does Xian Yong want to practice martial arts with your uncle? If you want, that's okay. However, if you want to learn martial arts from me, you must listen to me and complete everything I tell you with your heart. Don’t talk about suffering.”
A stone in Yuan Mai's heart finally settled, and he hurriedly nodded to Xiahoudun and said, "Just listen to your uncle."
As for why Xiahou Dun was so cheerful, it is unknown.
However, according to Yuan Xi's speculation, he just wants to use the master-disciple relationship with Yuan Mai to bring the Yuan family and Xiahou family closer and further prevent accidents in Cao Cao's bloodline. When the time comes, Yuan Mai will operate from it, which will be more of a guarantee.
