Wu Yi was also stunned when he heard what the other party said. You don't know me, so what do you want to do here?
"I am Yuan Xu, the captain of the Imperial Guard Corps under the command of Yuan Zhou Mu, and I am here to meet with the general in the name of my lord?"
Yuan Xu directly reported his identity.
"Don't talk and come to the study with me."
Wu Yi glanced at Yuan Xu and took him directly to the study without verifying his identity.
After entering the study, he directly opened the secret door and led Yuan Xu into the secret room.
"You said you are the lord's subordinate, do you have proof?"
Wu Yi looked at Yuan Xu in front of him and began to verify his identity. The reason why he didn't ask just now was because he was afraid that someone would see him and leak the news.
Since Cheng Yu returned to Chengdu, he has obviously felt that the atmosphere here has become much more solemn, so whether he is a member of Yuan Shu or not, he should hide as much as possible.
"I don't have a voucher, and I won't bring it here."
Hearing that Wu Yi asked for credentials, Yuan Xu shook his head. He couldn't possibly bring something to prove his identity. Otherwise, if someone discovered him, he would be dead.
"Haha, you are just talking nonsense, and you want Wu Yi to believe you. Do you think I am a three-year-old child?"
Glancing at Yuan Xu, Wu Yi saw a trace of murderous intent in his eyes. He broke into his mansion at night without evidence. No matter who it was for, he could not let go of the person in front of him.
"General, although I have no credentials, there is one thing that can prove my identity."
Feeling Wu Yi's murderous intention, Yuan Xu smiled slightly. Jia Xu had already explained this point. Sometimes an unknown thing is something that can prove his identity better than any certificate.
.
"explain."
Wu Yi was ready to attack. As long as he could not be convinced by what Yuan Xu said, no matter what his identity was, he would kill him with a knife to avoid future troubles.
"General, does he still remember the agreement he made with Lord Xun You? If he remembers it, this is the best proof for Yuan Xu."
Yuan Xu looked at Wu Yi. Even though he was fully confident that Wu Yi would believe him, this murderous intention still made him a little scared. After all, he was just a small team leader, and Wu Yi was the general of the Shu Han Dynasty in later generations. Although he had an uncle
It’s my bonus, but it also has real skills.
After hearing Yuan Xu's words, the murderous aura accumulated in Wu Yi's body disappeared without a trace. This was an agreement between him and Xun You, and only he and Xun You knew about it. But now he was mentioned by the person opposite. It seems that his identity is indeed
no problem.
"Yuan Xu, right? Ghosts are rampant in Chengdu now, Cheng Yu is crowing and cranes are crowing, and the grass and trees are all in war. I don't dare to be careless. I offended you a lot just now, and I hope you can forgive me."
Wu Yi smiled and saluted Yuan Xu with clasped fists.
"General, Yuan Xu did not do well. I hope General will not take offense."
Seeing Wu Yi salute to him, Yuan Xu quickly returned the salute with fists in his hands.
What a joke, you are a general and I am just a soldier. Although you are not yet in the Jizhou military ranks, as long as you capture Yizhou, others will step on you in a minute. He does not dare to neglect it.
"Okay, come and sit down, I don't know why the Lord sent you here?
As long as Wu Yi can do it, he will go through fire and water without hesitation."
Wu Yi had nothing to say. After pulling Yuan Xu to sit down, he began to ask him about his purpose.
"Here is a letter from Military Advisor Jia Xu. He said that as long as the general acts according to what is written in the letter, it will be fine."
After Yuan Xu sat down, he took off his shoes directly, then used a knife to break open the soles, and took out the letter written by Jia Xu to Wu Yi from inside.
Taking the letter from Yuan Xu, Wu Yi did not show any objection at all and directly began to read the contents of the letter carefully.
After reading Jia Xu's letter, Wu Yi remained silent and began to think carefully about Jia Xu's arrangements.
"I understand. I will do my best to do what Military Advisor Jia Xu arranges."
After thinking for a while, Wu Yi nodded directly to Yuan Xu, saying that he would act in accordance with Jia Xu's arrangements.
"Okay, then I will return to the inn now and leave the city after dawn to report the news to the military advisor."
Hearing Wu Yi's words, Yuan Xu also nodded. Since Wu Yi agreed to Jia Xu's arrangement, his mission was successfully accomplished.
"Okay, you should go back to the inn now, otherwise if someone finds you staying out all night, your identity may be exposed."
Wu Yi did not keep Yuan Xu. Chengdu is now very strict. If Yuan Xu really stayed out all night, the inn owner might report it to the government office tomorrow. Once Yuan Xu's identity is exposed, it will be difficult for him to act.
"promise."
Yuan Xu cupped his fists at Wu Yi, and after leaving the secret room, he quietly left Wu Yi's house and returned to his inn. At dawn the next day, Yuan Xu paid the innkeeper a few days' rent, and then followed the people out of the city.
Crowds of people left Chengdu to meet Jia Xu outside the city.
Wu Yi directly sent people to find Wu Lan at dawn the next day.
"Brother, what do you want from me?"
Wu Lan cupped her fists and saluted Wu Yi, not knowing why she called him here now.
"Look at this."
Wu Yi directly handed Jia Xu's letter to Wu Lan.
After Wu Lan read the letter, a light flashed in his eyes.
"Is this about to start?"
Wu Yi nodded after hearing Wu Lan's words.
"Brother, if you act according to the content of this letter, Chengdu may be in for a change. The deaths are not just a matter of one or two people. Cheng Yu is returning from Mianzhu specifically to deal with the possible changes in Chengdu.
"
Wu Lan glanced at Wu Yi and felt a little unbearable.
"Wu Lan, those who achieve big things don't stick to trivial matters. This Yizhou gentry is really hateful. They not only prey on Yizhou, but are also the source of cholera in Yizhou. The purpose of Jia Xu's military advisor coming this time is to make them turn against Liu Bei and kill people with a borrowed knife.
, wipe out all these pests."
Wu Yi shook his head slightly, but he disagreed with Wu Lan's intolerance. In his opinion, these people were pests in Yizhou. If they could be eradicated with the knife in Liu Bei's hand, not only would the stability of Yizhou be guaranteed, but also the stability of Yizhou would be guaranteed.
It can also cut off Liu Bei's connection with the local gentry in Yizhou, so why not do it.
"ok, I get it."
After hearing what Wu Yi said, Wu Lan didn't care. They were the ones who followed Liu Yan to the west. They had no good impressions of the local nobles and their life and death had nothing to do with him.
"Well, then just follow the military advisor's method."
"promise."
Soon Wu Yi and Wu Lan were pretending to drink outside, but their eyes were fixed on Qiao Ling, who was drinking at the side.
After Qiao Ling returned from Brazil, he was originally a very famous descendant of the Qiao family, but he failed to capture Qiao Zhou and angered him. He separated from the Qiao family in Chengdu and was abandoned directly after he came back.
Unable to make up his mind, he spent the whole day hanging out in wine shops.
"Brother, I'm going."
Seeing that Qiao Ling was very drunk, she directly spoke to Wu Yi.
"Well, go ahead, remember to be careful."
Wu Yi drank a glass of wine and nodded to Wu Lan.
"Know."
Wu Lan nodded to express his understanding, then swayed towards Qiao Ling.
"Peng."
The two of them inadvertently bumped into each other, and the wine in Qiao Ling's hand spilled all over him.
"If you blind your eyes, you dare to hit me."
Qiao Ling got angry immediately after being hit, grabbed Wu Lan's sleeve, stared at him with scarlet eyes, and yelled at him.
Wu Lan bowed directly to him, but in reality she leaned towards his ear.
"Isn't this the trash of the Qiao family?"
No need to say anything, just this sentence directly detonated Qiao Ling's fragile heart.
"Damn it, you don't have any eyesight, I will deal with you today."
Qiao Ling grabbed the wine jar on the table and hit Wu Lan on the head.
Wu Lan was not drunk, so when he saw the wine jar coming, he covered his head with his arms.
"Peng."
With a crisp sound, the wine jar shattered, and Wu Lan took advantage of the situation and sat directly on the ground.
"Qiao Ling, I've apologized to you, but you still dare to hit me?"
Wu Lan, who was sitting on the ground, also shouted loudly.
"apologize?
I just want to beat you, a hateful Dongzhou native like you."
Qiao Ling was also drunk, so she stood up on the bench next to her and threw it at Wu Lan.
Wu Lan was just here to stir up trouble. When he saw Qiao Ling standing on tiptoe on the bench, he did not dodge and was hit by the bench.
"Qiao Ling, you've had enough."
Wu Yi also came to the two of them at this time. Seeing that Qiao Ling was still smashing, he grabbed his bench directly.
"Haha, a defeated general dares to come here to show off his power?
I beat my brother, and the eldest brother is here too?"
Seeing Wu Yi grabbing his bench, Qiao Ling was not afraid at all. He dropped the bench with red eyes and slapped Wu Yi on the face.
Wu Yi, who received a slap, looked ferocious and stared at Qiao Ling.
"Qiao Ling, you are so majestic."
After hearing Wu Yi's words, Qiao Ling showed a cruel smile, kicked Wu Yi away, then grabbed another bench next to him and threw it towards Wu Yi.
"Brother."
Seeing Wu Yi being hit, Wu Lan rushed over and lifted Qiao Ling up.
"Haha, Wu Lan, if you dare to touch a hair on my head, I will definitely make your Wu family unable to gain a foothold in Chengdu."
Qiao Ling was not afraid at all when he was caught by Wu Lan. Now that Chengdu was dominated by Liu Bei and the Yizhou gentry, he really didn't believe that Wu Lan dared to touch him.
