Volume 2 Bloody Xuanyuan Pass] Chapter 39 Guo Tu burned the letter in a hurry, and thunder came to cover it up——

Chapter 39: Guo Tu burned the letter urgently, and thunder came to cover it up

After Yuan Shao read the letter, his expression changed again and again. Finally, he angrily crumbled the paper into a ball and threw it into the fragrant roasting charcoal fire next to the Chinese army's large account table. At this moment, he

Stopped strangely. First release

After all, Yuan Shao is not a fool. With such a big scandal happening to his family far away in Qingzhou, how could he not be cautious and suspicious?

Although the signature on the envelope is his photo seal (it is really untouched, so it is guaranteed to be fake), the paint is also intact (it has been properly handled by an expert in fraud, and Yuan Shao is not an expert, so he cannot see it at a glance), and the contents inside

The handwriting was also the handwriting of the left-behind Xu You, whom he was very familiar with (forged by an expert under Zhang Yang). Although the words were a bit strange and jerky, the shocking content of the letter made him unable to care about anything else.

He waved his hand, and Chun Yuyi came in a moment later.

Yuan Shao asked quietly: "Is this letter written by Master Xu You himself and given to you by his own hand?"

Chunyu Yi naturally said that it was indeed the case.

Yuan Shao asked again: "What other instructions did Lord Xu You have before leaving?"

Chun Yuyi thought for a while and replied: "Master Xu said that some things must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise things will change later, and one must be careful and never let outsiders know, otherwise it will be infamous and be criticized by thousands of people——"

When Yuan Shao heard this, he sneered and asked, "Have the eldest son and his wife done anything strange recently?"

Chunyu's family has always been close to the Yuan family, and Chun Yuqiong and Yuan Shao have known each other for a long time. They are half monarch and half brother. Chun Yuyi often goes to the Yuan family to play together. He usually takes care of the affairs of the Yuan family.

It's very clear, that's why Yuan Shao asked.

Chun Yuyi frowned and then said to Yuan Shao: "My wife was sick before I left. The eldest son has just recruited five thousand new soldiers and is training them with the help of Master Tian Feng. The eldest son is very attentive and lives and eats with the soldiers. It is very popular."

The soldiers love him and he is already quite capable..."

He couldn't stand the way Yuan Shao lowered his head in thought, and continued to say with some praise: "The Yellow Turban Guanhai's troops who recently escaped from Xuzhou are plundering the Bohai Kingdom. The eldest son is in charge of defeating the enemy, and he uses the eldest son he trained.

The army took over the defense task of the Bohai Prime Minister's Mansion. The defense was so tight that only entry was allowed but no exit. The enemy could not even send agents. Guan Hainai had no choice but to go south and turn to Beihai. 15

"

Chun Yuyi had always been close to Yuan Tan, the eldest son of the Yuan family, and he concluded that the eldest son would inherit the family business in the future (although Yuan Shao doted on his second wife, Liu Shi, and Aiwujiwu doted on his third son, Yuan Shang, and appointed Yuan Shang as his designated successor).

Therefore, he spared no effort to consolidate his relationship with Yuan Tan so that he can make a fortune in the future.

But he didn't have the ability to observe words and emotions, and he didn't even notice the violence and murderous intent flashing in Yuan Shao's eyes when he was praising and praising Yuan Tan.

Yuan Shao didn't wait for him to talk anymore, so he interrupted him with a wave of his hand, looked at him with a half-smile and said, "Tan'er is really capable - but why did my wife get sick as soon as I left?"

However, Chun Yuyi did not hear the murderous intention in Yuan Shao's words, but comforted him desperately: "Madam, we were all here to watch the moon on the night of the Lantern Festival. On such a full moon night, the leader of the alliance was far away.

Fighting in a foreign country, my wife felt sorry for her and drank a few more

Cup. By the time the banquet was over, the lady was already drunk. In the end, the eldest son took the lady back in person and took care of the lady all night. When I saw the eldest son the next day, he was very haggard. It was obvious that he had worked very hard. The eldest son

It’s really the utmost filial piety——”

When Yuan Shao heard Chunyu Yi say these words himself, he raised his head and laughed loudly and said: "Okay, okay, I just left, one is drunk and the other is exhausted. It's great——!"

Chun Yuyi saw that something was wrong with the situation, but he still thought about it and said carefully: "Master Xu You is still waiting for the alliance leader's instructions. He asked me to go back and deal with important matters with the alliance leader's instructions. You see-"

However, Yuan Shao suddenly turned around and kicked him. Chun Yuyi was unprepared and was kicked directly to the door of the tent. Yuan Shao pointed his sword at him and roared: "Get out of here!"

Chun Yuyi felt aggrieved, but when he saw Yuan Shao wielding his sword with red eyes and looking like he was about to kill someone, he knew the current situation and ran away.

He patted the footprints on his buttocks and said to himself in a very aggrieved tone: "My wife suffered such a severe cold and vomiting and had diarrhea all night. The eldest son originally wanted to be courteous to please her and hoped to reconcile with her, but the lady ignored him at all.

Later I found out that the eldest young master had been waiting outside the madam’s bedroom all night, and the madam didn’t let him in. The eldest young master is really filial and has worked really hard.”

But Yuan Shao was completely angry. He said to himself arrogantly: "Yuan Tan, I just prefer your brother more over the years, but I haven't made up my mind yet to let him inherit the family business. If you hear the news,

I can't wait to join forces with Tian Feng, one recruiting new troops, and the other making full efforts. Haha, okay, you still share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers.

It’s hard to eat and sleep together to win people’s hearts! What a talent! But when Guan Hai’s Yellow Turban came, you didn’t lead the army to go on an expedition. Why did you take over the house of the Prime Minister’s Mansion and put it on such tight guard against thieves? Not entirely, I

It seems that you want to take advantage of my absence to use military horses to force my wife to submit, so that you can firmly sit in the position of the head of the family in the future!"

Then Yuan Shao's eyes turned red and he smiled toward the sky: "It's okay for you to sleep with the soldiers. Why did you even sleep with my wife and your stepmother! I'm not dead yet!"

Then, he struck the table hard with his sword. The table made two noises, and the preserved fruit dish flew all over the floor. Yuan Shao kicked it again, and the dish and the sawdust from the table suddenly hit the bonfire next to it.

The roaring bonfire sent sparks all over the sky.

Guo Tu was passing by and wanted to come in. When he heard the noise inside, he rushed inside with his guards. He was shocked when he saw Yuan Shao's furious look.

Yuan Shao fiercely pointed arrows at the guards and shouted: "What are you doing here! Did I give an order?"

When the guards were shocked and didn't know what to do, Guo Tu waved his hand to signal them all to retreat. Only then did they sigh with relief and retreat. Guo Tu then cautiously stepped forward and held his hands in his hands and asked: "My lord - why are you so angry? Could it be that

It’s home—”

When Yuan Shao saw Guo Tu, who had always been very popular with him, very good at understanding people's hearts, and smart and well-behaved, his anger subsided a little. He actually handed Guo Tu a letter with a family scandal written on it, and then sat down and poured out all his anger to Guo Tu.

Tu listened, while Guo Tu watched and listened, his heartbeat quickened and his brain short-circuited.

His alias was Yingchuan Guo Tu, and he had been working undercover for Yuan Shao for so many years. Naturally, he knew that due to the issue of succession, the eldest son and Mrs. Liu, and then the subordinates headed by Tian Feng Jushou and him, Guo Tu, and Feng Ji, were fighting openly and secretly.

.

But I didn't expect that not long after Yuan Shaogang left, the eldest son would come up with so many wonderful things.

First, he asked Tian Feng, a great talent, to help him train 5,000 new troops and gain control of his own men, citing the lack of force in the Bohai Sea and the fact that he was ready to send troops to invade the neighboring princes at any time.

Then he took the opportunity of Guan Hai's Yellow Turban invasion to retreat instead of advancing, but took the opportunity to take over the defense of the Prime Minister's Office, taking the Yuan family and all the ministers' families into his hands. Then he worked hard all night with Mrs. Liu——

This is simply Dong Zhuo's second, a complete replica!

Guo Tu (Wu Zhong) originally thought that the dispute within the Yuan family over the position of head of the family would have to subside for at least a few years before breaking out. However, he did not expect that the storm would come so quickly, and he, who had been sowing discord, was caught off guard and unprepared.

.

He had to sigh in his heart, eldest son, you are really surprising and joyful. I, Wu Zhong, admire you!

Thinking that the Yuan family might collapse due to internal strife, Guo Tu felt an overwhelming joy in his heart. The bloody feud that had his entire family slaughtered overnight would finally be repaid after more than thirty years!

Dad, Mom, you can rest in peace. Brother, you don’t have to work so hard 1

But just when Guo Tu was ecstatic, he suddenly discovered a flaw in the fake: the ink marks were not from more than a month ago!

He was shocked, and immediately thought that someone must have read this letter not long ago, erased the original content, and replaced it with the fake one that is now sowing discord!

That person must also have a blood feud with the Yuan family, and he is very thoughtful and knows the situation of the Yuan family very well. Otherwise, he would not be able to write such a lie that can almost be interpreted as false and even more convincing than the truth!

But the ink is too new. Once this fatal injury is discovered, this perfect package exchange plan will be in vain!

At this moment, Jushou rushed in with an anxious look on his face and said as he walked: "What happened to my lord to make him so angry!"

Yuan Shao took a deep breath, pointed at the letter in Guo Tu's hand angrily and said: "It's impossible to cover up a family feud. You are all my most trusted people, so I won't hide it from you."

With that said, Yuan Shao motioned to Guo Tu to show the letter to Ju Shou.

Guo Tu was startled. He looked at Ju Shou walking over with a heavy face, and thought quickly in his mind: "Ju Shou, like Tian Feng, is a learned and upright man with a vicious eye and a careful mind. This letter angered Yuan Shao and asked him to distinguish.

There is nothing suspicious, but most of the time I can’t hide it from Ju Shou! We can’t let him see this letter, otherwise the Yuan family will be in a state of internal strife!”

Guo Tu's anxious eyes rolled, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. At this moment, he happened to see the charcoal fire in front of him that was kicked by Yuan Shao, and charcoal dust flew everywhere. He pretended to have accidentally missed it and dropped the letter on the charcoal fire.

above.

Yuan Shao was startled, and Ju Shou, who didn't see the letter, was even more stunned, but at this moment, thunder rolled down from the sky.

Guo Tu took advantage of the situation and pretended to be frightened. He closed his eyes and rubbed his heart and said with lingering fear: "I'm scared to death. I'm most afraid of thunder——"

Yuan Shao smiled lonely at Ju Shou and said, "If you haven't seen it, you haven't seen it. There's nothing interesting to see..."

But Guo Tu pointed to the strong wind outside after the rolling thunder, and said meaningfully: "Hun came early this year, with thunder and heavy rain in March. What a rare thing - the storm is not far away!"

Zhang Yang's army, which is hundreds of miles away, is advancing.

At this time, the flying cavalry came to report: "My lord, I found Zhang Xiu's army fleeing towards us. Apparently after a fierce battle, other allied troops are not far away!"

Zhang Yang raised his eyebrows and shouted: "Huang Zhong, bring a thousand men and horses to have a look!"

The battle begins now!
Chapter completed!
