When Yuan Shu finished speaking, Feng Yuan gently touched Yuan Shu's face.

She tried her best to use the weak light to see Yuan Shu's face clearly, this man who took great care of her.

She wanted to clearly imprint Yuan Shu's appearance in her mind.

Feng Yuan looked at it for a long time, then stretched out her hand to take off Yuan Shu's clothes and said, "Husband, it's getting late."

"Let's take a rest early!"

Yuan Shu leaned down and kissed Feng Yuan's forehead tenderly, and then put out the candle.

This night, we drank together in front of people, surrounded by soft jade lamps. Looking back and hugging each other, it hurts. Push Lang gently. Gradually, I heard a trembling sound, and blushed slightly with fright. After trying it again and again, there was no gap at all. This time the flavor became crazy, moving and moving, arms touching each other, lips touching, and tongues playing with each other.

Perhaps, Feng Yuan's real tenderness lies in her. Only Yuan Shu can understand it.

After one night, Yuan Shu, who got up earlier than Feng Yuan in the morning, looked at his wife. Then she kissed his forehead again, covered him with the quilt and got out of bed carefully.

When I walked outside the door, there was already a maid waiting. After Yuan Shu simply washed up, he ordered: "When Madam gets up, let her have breakfast first!"

"There is no need to wait for my return. If Madam gets up at noon, there is no need to disturb her, and Yao'er is not allowed to disturb her."

"Anyway, everything was taken care of by my wife while I was away."

Everyone who can enter this courtyard was purchased by Yuan Shu himself from the system. These people are absolutely loyal to him, and every one of them has martial arts skills.

But it is only limited to protecting his wife and son, and these people are people with real flesh and blood and emotions in other worlds, so at this time, he is very envious of Yuan Shu's gentleness and consideration towards his wife.

After simply washing up, Yuan Shu came to the lobby of the Yuan family. At this time, Yuan Wei and Yuan Shao have been waiting here for a long time.

Although Yuan Shu didn't know why his eldest brother was there, he came over without any hesitation and said: "Uncle, eldest brother, good morning!"

Upon hearing Yuan Shu's greetings, Yuan Wei maintained the dignity of his elders and said: "Gao Dao, sit down."

"Benchu ​​is here today. Although I have already decided on this matter. But according to the rules, you will inherit the Yuan family in the future, so I still need to tell you."

"After all, this is no small matter."

When Yuan Shu heard what Yuan Wei said, he actually felt a little baffled in his heart. After all, he has not been involved in family affairs since he was thirteen years old.

And even when his father and mother were alive, Yuan Shu himself didn't pay much attention to family affairs.

After all, although the Yuan family is now the family of the fourth generation and the three nobles, it also limits the development of Yuan Shu, who has a system.

If it were not for safety reasons, Yuan Shu would not have borrowed 100,000 gold from his family when he was eight years old to use it as start-up capital for his business.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shu said: "Uncle, just discuss family matters with your eldest brother."

"You don't need to tell me, and my eldest brother has indeed done better than me over the years, and I also believe that my uncle and eldest brother will not do anything that is not beneficial to the family."

After Yuan Shu finished speaking, he took a sip of tea soup out of habit. Yuan Shao on the other hand said nothing. After all, he didn't know how to respond to his younger brother.

They are brothers, but also half-mothers. In terms of status, Yuan Shu is the legitimate son, and in terms of status, he is the future head of the family.

And he was just the eldest son of a concubine, so the gap between him and Yuan Shu was really huge.

When Yuan Wei heard what Yuan Shu said, he turned to Yuan Shao and said, "Original, you and the road are brothers."

"How about you tell the road what you think?"

In fact, regarding the relationship between the two brothers Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao. Yuan Wei got a headache just thinking about it. When their parents were still alive, Yuan Shu would have dinner together at home even if he was busy outside.

Although their brothers didn't communicate much at that time, at least there were people above them who were suppressing them. It's not as if they haven't said a word, and now that their parents have passed away, Yuan Shu and his wife have moved to another courtyard to live alone.

Although they are still a family, Yuan Wei himself is still the head of the family, but he has never entered Yuan Shu's other courtyard.

Even when he went to Yuan Shu several times, he was intercepted in the yard outside.

Now Yuan Wei just wants to take advantage of it while he is still alive. Help the two brothers to harmonize their relationship. After all, they are brothers no matter what.

There is no need to act like a stranger.

When Yuan Shao heard what his uncle Yuan Wei said, he could only say: "Second brother, I won't beat around the bush with you. I believe you know about the imperial court's auction of official positions this time."

"And this time my uncle and I got the news that the official positions that the imperial court has put up for auction include not only positions such as governor."

"There is even a position like the prefect of a county. I think my second brother also knows about it. The current imperial court has long abolished the position of state pastor that once was superior to the county governor. Therefore, the prefect of a county is already the largest official position in a prefecture and county. "

"Moreover, there are three county governors among the official positions in the auction this time. I want to borrow some of the family's funds to bid with them for the position of the next governor."

"In this way, our Yuan family will have a stable enough rear area. However, this requires a lot of money, so I hope you can agree, second brother."

Yuan Shao's starting point is indeed good, and Yuan Shao still has the idea of ​​​​making achievements and serving the court.

After all, among the three major factions in the imperial court. Yuan Shao is also a key figure in the forces headed by He Jin and the Yuan family, if Yuan Shu remembers well. Historically, Yuan Shao and General He Jin discussed summoning the governor Dong Zhuo to Beijing to be one of the masterminds in an attempt to eliminate the ten permanent servants, but before the matter was completely completed.

General He Jin was deceived into the palace and killed by the anxious Shi Changshi, and that was where Dong Zhuo entered the capital. He abolished the elders and established young ones, and began to control the government in the name of his father-in-law.

It seems that the boy born in the year of dragon will eventually become an evil dragon.

Yuan Shu looked at Yuan Wei and his eldest brother Yuan Shao and said: "I have never participated in family affairs."

"Since the eldest brother has this idea, he wants to use part of the money from the family to buy the position of the prefect of a county."

"Then I think my eldest brother, as my father's son, is also qualified for such a matter. Therefore, there is no need to discuss it with me. After all, the family does not belong to me, Yuan Shu, alone."

"And I think my uncle and eldest brother also know that most of my thoughts are with Yuan'er. When my father was alive, I didn't have much involvement in family affairs. Since my father is gone, there is no reason to get involved forcefully."

Although Yuan Shao had already been mentally prepared, he thought that Yuan Shu was even willing to let him take money from the family to buy a position as a prefect. But at least he would sneer at him, after all, his real identity is not even comparable to that of the Yuan family's descendants.

Because his biological mother was originally just a slave of the Yuan family, this matter has always been a stain on him.

In such an aristocratic family, a good background and mother's status. They were competing for resources and even the best support for the family leader's position, but he did not expect Yuan Shu to agree to him so easily.

This moment made Yuan Shao feel a little ashamed. After all, it was he who judged the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

Although Yuan Wei had already expected that Yuan Shu would agree, this situation was somewhat beyond his expectation. After all, Yuan Shu's words would have been heard at a clan meeting. This undoubtedly meant that he gave up his position as the heir of the Yuan family to Yuan Shao. He had always thought that Yuan Shu was just talking, but he did not expect that Yuan Shu had always been serious.

Yuan Shao asked again in a tone of disbelief: "Second brother, do you know how much it costs to bid for the position of governor of a county?"

"According to previous estimates, the position of a county magistrate would cost upwards of two billion yuan at worst. And this is the position of a county governor in an extremely remote place. If it is like the position of a county governor in those rich places."

"It's at least three billion or even four billion, which is equivalent to the Han's total tax revenue for a year."

And what Yuan Shao didn't say was that he needed more. Because he bought this news from Cao Mengde, and the price was that Yuan Shao paid for it himself or used Yuan Shao's connections to transfer Cao Cao to the military camp.

This allowed Cao Cao to obtain a position of real power, so Yuan Shao conservatively estimated that he would have to spend 5 billion yuan from his family to bid.

This is also something that Yuan Shao and Yuan Wei have discussed before.

When Yuan Shu heard what Yuan Shao said, he didn't feel any emotion in his heart. And behind all this was promoted by him and the ten permanent servants headed by Zhang Rang, and this time the bidding was not limited to the positions of three prefects.

Even the state pastoral system will be reactivated, and he, Yuan Shu, will be the last Nanyang state pastor appointed by a powerful emperor in the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The status and value of such a grant are completely different from the position of state pastor obtained by later princes, because no one can have the orthodoxy of Yuan Shu.

This will also bring infinite invisible benefits to Yuan Shu in the future, and he will win over people's hearts more easily than anyone else.

As for Cao Cao being allowed to use the young emperor to do what he wanted to do with the emperor and order the princes, it was simply impossible in history.

Yuan Shu took a sip of tea soup and said to Yuan Shao again: "Brother, I just made my attitude clear."

"Of course I will do what I say, and I believe that the eldest brother will make his own decision on this matter."

"So, all matters within the family should be discussed by the eldest brother and uncle."
