"Husband, the gifts and medicinal herbs have been prepared.”Zhen Mi ran over to ask Yuan Xi.
Yuan Xi rubbed Zhen's head lovingly." Mi 'er, go to the carriage and wait for your husband. I'll be there soon."”
"Annoying ~ You messed up my hair accessories again.”Zhen Mi pushed Yuan Xi's hand away and ran away with a giggle.
"Zilong, there's something I need you to do.”After Zhen Mi left, Yuan Xi said to Zhao Yun seriously.
"Lord, please instruct me."
" Bring the brothers in the camp and head to the city immediately." Yuan Xi began to order in a low voice.
The battalion that Yuan Shao had given Yuan Xi had all been transferred to Yuan Xi's side.
The families of these surrendered generals were all placed in Ye City and lived a good life.
Yuan Xi was trying to rope them in, but he was also threatening them.
Once Yuan Xi's safety was compromised, then the families of the surrendered generals would have their good days come to an end.
"This matter must be done secretly. Don't let anyone recognize you, understand?”
Since someone was using the fishing boat to create momentum, Yuan Xi naturally could not sit idle. He needed to make some arrangements in advance so that the person behind him would pay the price!
After hearing Yuan Xi's instructions, Zhao Yun was extremely puzzled. She didn't know why Yuan Xi would do such a thing, but in the end, she still cupped her fists and agreed.
"I will obey your orders. Please rest assured, Lord.”
"Go ahead."
......
General Manor.
The guards had all been sent out to do their jobs. Yuan Xi only brought a few servants with him and came to the General's Mansion with Zhen Mi.
"Mi 'er, no matter what happens today, don't panic. Everything is under your husband's control, understand?”Yuan Xi was worried that Zhen Mi would be frightened by what would happen later, so he reminded her worriedly.
"Husband, what's wrong…Don't scare Mi 'er…" Zhen Mi looked worried.
"Don't cry!" Yuan Xi said with a stern face.
Zhen Mi was stunned, but she couldn't help but panic. This was the second time Yuan Xi had been so fierce to her. The last time, Yuan Xi had kowtowed and admitted his mistake, causing his forehead to be bruised.
Zhen Mi felt uneasy and held Yuan Xi's hand even tighter.
The two of them went all the way to the back of the house. Coincidentally, Yuan Shao's family of four was there.
Yuan Shang was lying on the sickbed. To be precise, he was lying on the sickbed.
Yuan Shao didn't hold back at that moment and hit him quite hard. Fortunately, Yuan Shang was young and strong, so he used his back to carry him down. After lying on the bed for ten days to half a month, he would recover.
As for Liu-shi, she had a pig head. Yuan Xi almost laughed out loud when she saw it.
Her two eyes were swollen until only a slit was left. Liu-shi's pair of fox-like eyes stopped at this time, and her cheeks were also puffed up. Clearly, her big mouth was stuffed.
As for whether he had any injuries on his body, Yuan Xi could not tell with his clothes covering it.
The youngest, Yuan Mai, was playing with a rattle-drum at the side.
"Xianyi and his wife are here.”Yuan Shao's voice sounded a little old.
Yuan Xi was even more clearly able to see that Yuan Shao had aged and haggard a lot.
Even though the matter this time could be considered to have passed, the psychological trauma that brought to Yuan Shao had always remained.
Unfortunately for the family, the second wife bullied the son left by his ex-wife, and Yuan Shao accidentally injured his favorite third son.
With this family tragedy unfolding, Yuan Shao felt even more miserable than unifying the north, both mentally and physically exhausted.
"Greetings, mother and grandfather."
Yuan Xi held Zhen Mi's hand and bowed to Yuan Xi and Lady Liu.
"Alright, we're all family. There's no need to be so formal in private.”Yuan Shao waved his hand and said.
"I heard that third brother was injured, so I wanted to come and visit.”Yuan Xi expressed his intention.
Yuan Shao nodded noncommittally and didn't say anything, making people unable to fathom him.
"I heard that there is a divine doctor called Hua Tuo in Henan. I have already sent people to look for him. When the time comes, I will ask him to take a look at Third Brother so that he won't have any problems.”
"My son is so thoughtful." A faint smile appeared on Yuan Shao's face when he heard this.
Regarding Yuan Xi being able to disregard past grudges and take the initiative to visit Mrs Liu's mother and son, Yuan Shao's heart was still very approving. Repaying evil with good was even more precious.
Of course, what Yuan Shao didn't know was that Yuan Xi was pretending all of this. She was pretending for him to see.
"Mother, Mi 'er's family has a business in Donghai. I specially brought you some pearl powder this time.”Yuan Xi turned to Liu-shi and said.
Pearl powder had a beauty effect. Now that Liu-shi had been beaten into a pig's head, Yuan Xi was full of mockery.
"No, I'm not. There's no need…" Liu-shi met Yuan Xi's gaze, and fear could not help but rise in her heart once again.
Although she did not manage to frame Yuan Xi this time, Yuan Xi definitely knew that she was trying to sow discord. Liu-shi was very afraid of this, afraid that Yuan Xi would take the opportunity to take revenge on her.
"Just accept the child's filial piety!”Yuan Shao said unhappily.
In Yuan Shao's opinion, his son did not care about the past and took the initiative to visit. Wasn't it to ease the relationship? He didn't expect this vicious woman to actually dare to be shameless?
Although Yuan Shao had let Liu-shi off because of Yuan Shang's plea, it did not mean that nothing had happened.
Liu-shi had already left a vicious stepmother's face in Yuan Shao's heart. In the future, if Liu-shi fanned the flames again, Yuan Shao would definitely not believe it, so naturally, he would not have a good face for her.
"Yes... Thank you Xianyi and Mi 'er, I'll accept the gift.”Madam Liu saw that Yuan Shao had the intention of getting angry and quickly took the gift.
Yuan Shang, who was lying on the sickbed, subconsciously clenched his fists when he saw this scene. He felt as if his mother, Liu-shi, had been humiliated. His eyes revealed a strong malice.
Yuan Xi remained calm and collected. Yuan Shang thought that he was hiding it, but in reality, Yuan Xi, who had been observing his expression, saw the hatred in his eyes clearly.
Yuan Xi knew very well that he had to get back the image of a filial son this time. He definitely could not let Yuan Shang get it.
Yuan Shao had always favored Yuan Shang, and he had a faint idea of letting the third son inherit the family business. Once the third son, Yuan Shang, had a reputation for filial piety, it would be like adding wings to a tiger.
With his relationship with Mrs Liu, if Third Brother succeeded in becoming the heir, it would be the end of Yuan Xi and Zhen Mi would be humiliated along with him.
"We have to set up a character to prepare for the next step of becoming the heir!”Yuan Xi was firm in his belief.
Although it was a little difficult for him to become the heir as the second son.
But as long as he was Yuan Shao's son, he had a chance at everything!
After making up his mind, Yuan Xi looked at Yuan Shao and asked,"
"Old Weng, what happened between you and Mother yesterday? Weren't you all fine when I was alive?”
Following Yuan Xi's question, a good show was about to begin.
