Chapter 1572 Undercurrent
(Page 1/1)
Yuan Tan was speechless when he was choked.
Although Xu You in the distance couldn't hear what Yuan Tan and Yuan Quan were saying, he saw Yuan Tan standing in front of Yuan Quan's car, and looked embarrassed. He probably suffered in the confrontation with Yuan Quan, and sighed secretly. Yuan Tan was captured by Sun Ce once, and his behavior was much more steady than before, but there were advantages and disadvantages. After suffering from heavy losses, he was inevitably depressed and did not have the sharpness that young people should have. Even Yuan Quan, a woman, could not handle it. How could he face Sun Ce in the future?
Xu You got out of the car, helped Pu Guan, tidied up his clothes, straightened the sword around his waist, and walked slowly over with his hands in his arms. Yuan Quan had closed the car window and was waiting for departure. Yuan Tan also turned around and wanted to leave. Xu You coughed and signaled Yuan Tan to leave later. Yuan Tan was puzzled, but still stopped.
Yuan Quan saw Xu You in the car window, but did not move. Of course she knew Xu You and knew what Xu You wanted to do, but she had no interest in giving him face. Between Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu, Xu You was a supporter of Yuan Shao and had never given Yuan Shu a good face. Of course, there was no need for her to give Xu You a good face now.
Seeing that the car window had not opened for a long time, Xu You had to cough again: "Don't Madam know me anymore?"
Yuan Quan slowly opened the car window and glanced at Xu You lightly. "I'm sorry, who is not satisfied?"
"Xu You, Nanyang, has ever interacted with Lingzun, have you never heard of it?"
"Xu You in Nanyang, is it General Xu You and Xu Ziyuan who could not build a building outside Junyi City?" Yuan Quan turned around and looked at Xu You, showing a meaningful smile. "My father has never mentioned the general, and the people around Junyi can remember you."
Xu You's face suddenly became hot, as if he was slapped. In the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao was defeated, and after returning to Yecheng, he would inevitably have to discuss his merits and demerits. The fact that he built a building outside Junyi City became his stain. Shen Pei committed suicide, and Yuan Shao also left a decree to kill Tian Feng. How could the Jizhou faction give up? They held Xu You's corruption in military spending and held Xu You accountable. It was Yuan Tan who mediated and saved Xu You on the condition of pardoning Tian Feng. Although he escaped, this incident made Xu You unable to raise his head for a long time.
Now Yuan Quan exposed his scars as soon as he met, making him unable to bear it. He reached out to hold the hilt of the sword, and his voice was stern. "Mrs. She is worthy of being Yuan Gonglu's daughter. She has no order of old and young, no courtesy of high and low, and no affection for the same clan. Her words are like a knife and aggressive, aren't you afraid of causing trouble?"
"Protect Madam!" The slave on the side shouted loudly, took off his shield, jumped off his horse, and protected Yuan Quan's carriage. Other knights also acted quickly, raising shields and holding knives near the place to protect the carriage, and taking off his crossbow in the distance, raising arrows in the strings and aiming at Xu You. The sound of "swinging" strings, footsteps, and the sound of armor hitting the armor endlessly. In just one or two breaths, two hundred knights surrounded Xu You and Yuan Tan, with swords tense and about to break out.
Xu You took a breath of air, his face flushed red, but he didn't dare to move. His swordsmanship was good, and he was not afraid of anyone, but he had no chance of winning against these two hundred fully armed knights. He had no doubt at all. As long as he dared to act rashly, these knights would shoot him without hesitation. He even had a feeling that Yuan Quan was prepared, otherwise how could these knights react so quickly?
Yuan Tan was also caught off guard. Suddenly he was surrounded by someone and pointed at dozens of crossbows. Anyone was worried and weak.
"Sister, no!"
Yuan Quan looked at Yuan Tan quietly through the car window. "Brother, are you doing a hundred operas for me? Should I swallow a sword or make a pill? It's a pity that I am a woman with no power to tie a chicken. I don't like this trick of dancing swords and playing swords. People who have survived the disaster cannot bear such fright. They can't help but overreact. Please forgive me, brother."
"My sister misunderstood, General Xu had no intention." Yuan Tan signaled Xu You to release the hilt of the sword to avoid misunderstandings. He said, "General Xu is his father and uncle, both old friends, and they are your elders. How could he hurt you?"
Yuan Quan chuckled: "My father has not been honored to be friends with General Xu, nor do I have an elder like General Xu. However, there are a few warriors under my husband's command. If General Xu likes a hundred plays, it's fine. If he likes to compete with others, he will have a chance in the future. The slave, let's go."
"Here!" The slave of Chang put away his sword and shield and slowly retreated, but still stared at Xu You with great fear. Xu You breathed a sigh of relief, glared at Yuan Quan fiercely, and turned around and left. Yuan Tan sighed and bowed his hand. Just as he was about to leave, Yuan Quan called him with a sarcastic look.
"Brother, can I still trust you?"
Yuan Tan hurriedly bowed and said, "Sister, this is really a misunderstanding. Don't worry, there will definitely be no more."
Yuan Quan was silent for a moment and nodded reluctantly. "Okay, I believe you again, I hope this is just Xu You's own ridiculous move."
Yuan Tan stumbled back, returned to the car, closed the car door, and ordered his departure to Yecheng. He leaned against the wall of the car, his eyes flashed. He didn't understand what Xu You meant. How could it be so ridiculous that he actually drew his sword in front of Yang Biao and his wife? Could it be that someone was behind the scenes and wanted to use Xu You's hands to create a conflict with Sun Ce and create a tense situation?
The defeat of Guandu and Yuan Shao died of serious injuries was an opportunity and a test for Yuan Tan. It is true that he is the eldest son, but he has the stain of being captured by Sun Ce. If Guo Tu had not operated from it and Yuan Shao died suddenly, he might not have had the chance to succeed the throne so smoothly. Guo Tu helped a lot, but because of the disagreement between Tian Feng and Guo Tu, he used Xu You's affairs to deal with Guo Tu and forcibly rescued Tian Feng. If Guo Tu wanted to give him some color, he would not be surprised at all.
Whether Xu You was angry by Yuan Quan's harshness or someone was making arrangements behind the scenes, this matter exposed Xu You's uncontrollableness and was a hidden danger.
Yang Biao sat in the car and saw clearly what happened outside Yuan Quan's car. He was silent for a long time and sighed softly. "Madam, the situation in Jizhou is very complicated."
Mrs. Yuan was careless. "Is the situation in Jizhou complicated? Is it so complicated? I think about internal and external troubles and urgently need moral support from the court, so that you can have the opportunity to mediate." She paused and said, "Are you worried that the means are not as good as A Quan, so that Jizhou will turn to Sun Bofu? But that's right. If it were me, I would definitely be willing to form an alliance with Sun Ce instead of surrendering to the court. If it were an alliance with Sun Ce, he could get the support of Sun Ce. Submit to the court, but he could only act as a hawk in the court, conquering everywhere, and have no time to rest."
Yang Biao was speechless and helpless. "Madam, where will you put me when you say that?"
Mrs. Yuan glanced at Yang Biao. "You think you are a loyal minister of the court. What others think, it's really hard to say. Husband, I have always wanted to ask, what do you plan to do if Dezu doesn't listen to you?"
"He is my son, how can he not listen to me?"
"I mean, if, if he doesn't listen, are you going to kill him and destroy his relatives for justice, or are you going to let it go, and father and son will be their masters?"
Yang Biao was silent for a long time. "I don't know if I don't hide it from my wife."
