Even though Cai Yong was a great literary figure in the world, his drinking capacity was only limited to one drink. After a few glasses of wine, he started to tell lies with his beard raised, and in the end he was carried back to the Cai Mansion.
Not only was Cai Yong knocked down, but Yuan Ji was Yuan Shu's second target. After a violent bombardment, he also went home sideways.
"Two noobs dare to fight with me, hehe."
After drinking the two of them drunk, Yuan Shu rushed back to the Prefectural Mufu and summoned Xun You and Tian Feng to come here to discuss matters.
"Lord, don't you need to greet everyone Cai?"
The first thing Xun You said when he saw Yuan Shu was to ridicule him.
"Gongda, how dare you tease my lord?"
Tian Feng looked at Xun You and couldn't help but have a serious look on his face.
"You should say that there is no need to greet Future Taishan."
Yuan Shu naturally knew the meaning of Xun You's words. Just as he was about to say it didn't matter, he was bombarded by Tian Feng.
"Haha, you two."
Yuan Shu glanced at Tian Feng and had nothing to say. He really couldn't afford to offend these two people when they got together.
"hehe."
"hehe,"
Yuan Shu smiled, Tian Feng and Xun You also nodded and smiled.
"Come on, come on, I have something to discuss with you."
After talking and laughing, it’s time to get down to business.
"Master, do you want to talk about the attack on the eldest son on the road?"
Xun You revealed what Yuan Shu wanted to discuss in one sentence.
"Tell me, what do you know?"
Although Xun You pointed him out, Yuan Shu wanted to see how capable he was.
"My lord, you are going to take the test on Brother Gongda."
Tian Feng smiled slightly, Yuan Shu, the master, was good at everything, but he suddenly asked some questions to test them.
"We can't talk about passing the exam. Let's make a small bet. If Gongda can guess everything correctly, I will lose. As for the bet, you can decide."
Yuan Shu smiled slightly and stared at Xun You in front of him.
"Lord, can I join in?"
Tian Feng couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he heard that Yuan Shu wanted to make a bet. You must know that Yuan Shu had never won a bet with them before, and he could be called a little expert in delivering food.
"You also know why I called you here?"
Yuan Shu was stunned when he heard Tian Feng's words. Do you know that?
"Know a thing or two."
Tian Feng nodded vigorously.
"Then you all talk about it together, check for any omissions and fill in the gaps. As long as you can guess correctly, I will lose."
Yuan Shu didn't bother to argue. Since you wanted to join, that's fine. He wanted to see how well they could guess.
"Okay, in that case, brother Yuan Hao, should you come first or me?"
Since the two are now on a united front, they need to break it down.
"Now that Gongda has started, please return it to me next."
Tian Feng nodded and signaled that he would come.
"good."
The first thing you have to do if you want to share the benefits is to give. He agreed with Tian Feng's words.
"Lord, if I guess correctly, the eldest son must have met someone else when he went to the Cai family this time, right or wrong."
"Yes, we met."
Tian Feng also hit the spot. After hearing this, Yuan Shu's curiosity became even more intense.
"Not talking about the entire Han Dynasty, but looking at the counties around Yanzhou, there are only a few households that have the ability to propose marriage to the Cai family. The first one is naturally the Yuan family in Runan, but it is definitely impossible for the Yuan family, so we exclude them
,
The second is the Xun family of Yingchuan. From the earliest Xun Shu to the later Xun family Eight Dragons to the modern Youruo, Gongda is the best among people. But as far as I know, the Xun family has now moved away from Yingchuan.
Sichuan and family members have all come to Jizhou, so they also exclude,
The third is the Chen family of Yingchuan. The name of Chen Taiqiu is well known all over the world, and his family background matches the Cai family in every aspect. However, Chen Shi’s eldest grandson Chen Qun does not meet the standards, and the Chen family is only famous but does not have the corresponding strength. To deal with the eldest son's personal guards, they would need at least two to three thousand troops, but they couldn't come up with them.
The fourth is the Hongnong Yang family. The fourth generation and the three princes can rival the Yuan family in terms of wealth and status. However, their whole family is now in Chang'an. If they want to propose marriage, they can just propose it directly to Cai Yong. Why come to Chenliu? ?
Fifth, let’s let Brother Gongda talk about the fifth one.”
After four words, Tian Feng suddenly stopped and kicked the ball to Xun You.
"Yuan Hao, Yuan Hao, what's the problem with this fifth place? Naturally, it's the Hedong Wei family. The Hedong Wei family claims to be the descendants of Wei Qing, the famous general of the dynasty. Although there is no way to verify it, no one can refute it.
His ancestor Wei Hao was a great Confucian at that time. Although he died of illness in Hedong, he was quite famous among the Confucian scholars at that time. Therefore, although the Wei family was not powerful, in terms of family background, it was fully worthy of the Cai family.
The second son of the Wei family, Wei Zhongdao, has just lost his crown, but he is a rare young talent, so he is the most likely person to propose marriage to the Cai family, and the most likely person to meet the eldest son. My lord, is there anything wrong?"
After Xun You finished speaking, he stared at Yuan Shu closely.
"Yes, my eldest brother did meet the Wei family when he proposed marriage to the Cai family. Do you know who attacked them?"
Yuan Shu does have a headache now. What kind of existence are these people? Can you guess so much just from the attack on the personal guard?
"They are definitely not from the Wei family. When proposing a marriage, they can only bring five hundred people there at most. With the elite level of personal guards, it will not be too difficult to face five hundred private soldiers. If you want to cause such battle damage, at least There will also be an army of three to five thousand people,
So the correct answer should be that they thought they were no match for the lord, so they left temporarily and then bribed local bandits or troops with gold and silver, allowing them to kill the eldest son and take away the Cai family."
Xun You smiled slightly and expressed his judgment.
Hearing the judgment that was getting closer and closer, Yuan Shu couldn't help but hold his breath.
"It's a long way from the Cai family to Hedong. The leader of the Wei family can't be delayed for too long, so they should be divided into two groups. On one group, the person in charge will return directly to Hedong, and on the other group, the person in charge will bring gold and silver to find a nearby one. Bandits of similar power carry out robbery and murder operations,
Although there are many bandit gangs near Yu County, the most suitable one is undoubtedly Dawang Village in Yongnu County."
After Xun You finished speaking, Tian Feng also spoke next.
After he finished speaking, he looked at each other and looked at Yuan Shu with a smile.
"If we are bandits from Dawang Village, after collecting the Wei family's gold and silver, we will definitely set up an ambush at the place we must pass on the way to Yongnu to rob and kill the eldest son."
"Okay, okay, I give up, okay, you all guessed it right."
Yuan Shu was completely convinced when he heard this. If he hadn't known that his elder brother had only told him, he would have doubted whether the two of them had climbed up the window and eavesdropped.
"Then what are you going to do, lord?"
Since Yuan Shu had admitted defeat, they had no intention of making fun of him.
"What am I going to do? Of course it's blood for blood, tooth for tooth. The so-called revenge for killing my father and the hatred for taking my wife. I want the Wei family to regret doing this forever."
