Anyone who had read a little about the Three Kingdoms of Ancient Earth would know Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao was the son of Sikong Yuan Feng. He was a famous warlord at the end of the Han Dynasty. His ancestors had four generations of three dukes. During the reign of the Spirit Monarch, he was the most powerful second generation official.
Later on, when the warlords fought for hegemony, Yuan Shao was also the strongest dukedom. He successively seized Ji, Qing, Bing, and You, and his power was unmatched.
Unfortunately, he lost to Cao Cao at the Battle of Guandu and was depressed. Not long after, he died of illness.
Mu Ge didn't expect to meet a great duke like Yuan Shao the moment he arrived in Luoyang, although he wasn't one yet.
"Oh right, the system says that you can obtain a forging gem by killing a dukedom!”Mu Ge remembered the system's exchange requirements in his mind. Yuan Shao was considered a super dukedom. Killing him was like killing Cao Cao, and he could get a lot of gems!
" System Notification: Yuan Shao has yet to become a duke. Killing him will not give you any gems.”
The system poured cold water on Mu Ge. It was indeed not that easy. If that was the case, then there was a BUG. Before these dukes made a name for themselves, the success rate of assassinations was very high.
However, even if Mu Ge was asked to do it, he would not do it because it would affect the course of history. He was a butterfly, and he did not want to fan the wind that could change the course of the history of the three countries of Ancient Earth.
It was still best for him to develop on his own. When he had strength in the future, even if there was a deviation in history, he would have the ability to settle down.
"The person on the city gate tower should be Yuan Shu. It seems that these two brothers have not been on good terms since they were young.”Mu Ge thought to himself.
Yuan Shao, who had been plotted against, finally recovered from the pain. He climbed up in anger and pointed at Yuan Shu on the city wall. He cursed angrily,"Yuan Gonglu, you actually tried to harm me!”
Yuan Shu didn't show any fear. Instead, he sneered,"Yuan Benchu, I'm just taking revenge for you slandering me in front of my father the day before yesterday. At the family banquet the day before yesterday, in order to show off, you flattered my father and even slandered me. Do you think I, Yuan Shu, am someone to be trifled with?”
"Nonsense. Everything I said to my father was the truth.”Yuan Shao retorted.
"Yuan Shao, you're just a concubine's son, I, Yuan Shu, am the son of a legitimate son! What right do you have to criticize me in front of my father?”Yuan Shu shouted.
The two brothers faced each other at the gate of the city tower. Their eyes were fierce, and neither of them gave in to the other. Because Yuan Shao was standing at the city gate, no soldiers dared to disperse him. The commoners did not dare to do so either. They stood outside the city gate and watched.
More and more people gathered, and finally, it attracted the attention of the general guarding the city. The general guarding the city was only a fifth-grade general, and it was not his place to interrupt. He did not dare to interrupt either. If these two demon kings were to target him, he would be played to death.
Although Mu Ge hated people who occupied the road, there was nothing he could do. He was just a commoner, so it was better for him not to stand out.
"If there is a chance to get close to Yuan Shao and have a good relationship with him, it would be better than wandering around Luoyang by myself.”Mu Ge pondered.
The city guard hurriedly reported the matter to the Left General Huangfu Song's personal general. Only when he came forward to mediate did the matter finally calm down and the official road resumed its passage.
This time, Yuan Shu took advantage of him and swaggered away. Yuan Shao bore a grudge in his heart and also planned to leave, but his tall horse was frightened and did not listen to Yuan Shao.
"You beast, I will kill you right now!”Yuan Shao was frustrated and wanted to kill the horse to vent his anger.
"Young Master Yuan, why are you so angry?"
Yuan Shao was just about to kill the horse to vent his anger when a voice sounded from behind him. Yuan Shao turned around and saw a young man dressed in ordinary clothes. The only thing that was unusual about this person was that he was more handsome than him.
"Who are you?" Yuan Shao was currently in a bad mood. Someone had disturbed him and was even more handsome than him. If he didn't say anything, he would definitely use this kid to vent his anger.
The person who stopped Yuan Shao was Mu Ge. It wasn't easy for him to meet the future duke, and he didn't want to waste this opportunity.
"Are you Brother Yuan Benchu?" Mu Ge asked and flattered.
"You know me?" Yuan Shao was somewhat puzzled. He had no impression of this kid. He had never seen him before.
Mu Ge smiled and said," Of course. Yuan Benchu of Luoyang has four generations and three dukes. His eldest son, Yuan Shao, has long been famous in Luoyang. I've heard of him and have always wanted to meet him. Today, I finally got my wish. Indeed, seeing is believing. Young Master Yuan is handsome and dignified. He exudes a heroic aura. He will definitely become a great man in the future."”
Yuan Shao felt extremely happy after hearing Mu Ge's words. Even his tone became harmonious. Although he had fallen and injured his face, he still tidied up his clothes and pretended to be humble."No, no, brother, you flatter me. May I ask where brother is from? What's your name?"
"Oh, I'm Mu Ge, also known as Ziyu, from Jizhou.”Mu Ge used to call him Mu Ziyu, but his father changed his name. Now, Mu Ge used it as his nickname.
The ancient people placed great importance on the form. Ordinary people didn't have a form at all. Mu Ge said this to raise his status and class. If he didn't even have a form, Yuan Shao wouldn't be interested in him.
"So it's brother Ziyu. I wonder which clan brother Ziyu is from?”Yuan Shao was trying to find out Mu Ge's background, but he knew that there wasn't a noble family in Jizhou with the surname Mu. He must be a nobody.
"I don't have a strong family background, and I learned physiognomy from my master since I was young. It was only when I was twenty years old that my master allowed me to travel the mountains and rivers. Today, I just arrived in Luoyang, and I didn't expect to meet the famous Brother Benchu.”Mu Ge was lying through his teeth. He didn't know any physiognomy, it was all a lie.
However, if Mu Ge didn't say that, Yuan Shao would definitely look down on him. Then, it would be difficult for him to get close to him.
"Ma-i physiognomy? What is it?" Yuan Shao asked doubtfully.
Mu Ge smiled and said," The Ma-Yi physiognomy was passed down by the founder of our Ma-Yi Taoism. It has been passed down to my master for four generations. I am the fifth generation of the Ma-Yi physiognomy."”
Mu Ge often read these physiognomy novels. After getting used to them, he remembered these illusory and high-sounding things. Now, he was using them to fool Yuan Shao.
