Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Failed Assassination

As soon as Zhen Mi got angry, an inexplicable turmoil was over, at least Yuan Yun didn't have to worry about this Zhen Jiang, but looking at this water-based Yang Hua woman, she didn't seem to have any intention of giving up, but in the next few days, she always came to the study to see Yuan Yun intentionally or unintentionally, and she had to be very close every time.

The family couldn't stay, so Zhen Mi directly took Yuan Yun to go around Zhongshan, not only to tour around, but also to meet some relatives, and the Zhen family really had a lot of relatives in Zhongshan, because the two walked for several days in a row, and only saw part of it.

The happiest is now Cao Chong, he rarely has the opportunity to go out, so this time he came out and had a lot of fun, Cao Zhuang is also a hard-working person, and he is also tossed miserably with the little master every day.

When Zhen Mi felt that her relatives had almost seen each other, and her pomp and majesty had enough, Yuan Yun proposed to go and see the coal mine that Liu Yiyi had built before, but now the output has not been able to rise, which makes people very worried.

By the afternoon of this day, the group appeared in the direction of the north of Zhongshan, where the coal was almost bare on the surface, which was very easy to mine, but even so, the yield was frighteningly low.

After Yuan Yun saw the environment here, he frowned, this was obviously not a natural factor, but a man-made production lag.

"It seems that it is still necessary to put on the posture of a marquis." Yuan Yun muttered, and then sank to the edge of the coal mine with the stone.

After seeing the scene here, Yuan Yun was stunned again, only to see that the vast and empty flat land was broken from it, and a number of roads were divided, but the road was built on these coals, and I don't know which idiot came up with it, because the coal is very soft, and it is estimated that the roads will all collapse before they are built.

After recruiting a Zhen shopkeeper, Yuan Yuncai pointed to the other half of the flat land and said, "Whose property is over there, and why are their roads built to our side?" ”

The shopkeeper looked at Yuan Yun's fingers, and immediately replied: "That is the land of the Chen family, and the land of the Zhen family before us was just next to it, and then we dug that coal here, and they applied to the imperial court to build a road, and they had to pass through us, and we are all waiting to see the joke now, where can anyone build a road on this soil." ”

Yuan Yun was slightly stunned, and asked again, "Who is this Chen family?" ”

The shopkeeper replied: "They are a bunch of villains, before Yuan Shao led here, they slapped Yuan Shao's ass hard, and really gave them a success, their Chen family was beautiful in those years, and then Yuan Shao couldn't do it, they even had a way to contact Chen Qun Chen Changwen in Xu Du, saying that it was a distant family, and they also took the family tree to the past, these snobs, when they were under Yuan Shao before, they didn't say that they were Chen Qun's relatives, a group of bastards who tended to be inflammatory, Hou Ye didn't have to worry. ”

A smile appeared inexplicably on the corner of Yuan Yun's mouth, looking back, these roads were not built at random, they were aimed at his Yuan Yun, and Chen Qun had nothing to do with himself before, what kind of distant relatives did he use to target him, it is estimated that he has already stood on Cao Ren's side.

The historical record is also very clear, Cao Pi ascended the throne and became the emperor, Chen Qun contributed to the nine-grade Zhongzheng system, and was very pleased with Cao Pi, and later even the official Zhishang Shuling, the general of the town army, the Zhonghu Army, and the Lu Shang Shushi, until Cao Pi died, he still existed as an auxiliary minister.

It can also be seen from this that Chen Qun will stand on Cao Pi's side, which can be regarded as a historical inevitability.

It's just that Chen Qun thinks he is hiding it well, but he is like being naked in front of Yuan Yun's historical information, and he is just pretending that Yuan Yun doesn't know about his collusion with Cao Ren, so he let this so-called distant family start to embezzle this coal mine, so as to give Cao Ren a vote.

When Yuan Yun was thinking about it, he saw Cao Chong playing on the side, and his face became happy at this moment.

Glancing at the strong man who was lazily building the so-called road in the distance, Yuan Yun directly patted the door of the carriage, and then said to Xiao Liu: "Back to the house, let's have a banquet tomorrow night to entertain the big clans around, and be sure to invite all the people around who have heads and faces." ”

Zhen Mi listened stunned on the side, and wondered: "Doesn't Yuan Lang hate dealing with these clans?" Therefore, the concubine came this time and specially ordered not to let me contact. ”

Yuan Yun smiled, and then replied: "At this time and that time, you don't see anyone bullying the door?" ”

Zhen Mi glanced at the coal excavation that had stalled because of road construction, frowned slightly, and said a little apologetically: "The Zhen clansmen mainly cultivate for a long time, so they don't understand the value of coal, so when they see each other building roads here, they just want to see each other's jokes, but they don't take it seriously at all, otherwise they won't let each other mess up like this." ”

Yuan Yun shook his head and continued to smile: "It's okay, if you take mine, you will give it back to me, and if you eat me, you will spit it out, let them wait and see." ”

Zhen Mi saw that Yuan Yun's face was not good, and immediately comforted: "The Chen family was a prominent family in Zhongshan before, and now Chen Qun is by Cao Sikong's side, and I heard that they have also received Cao Sikong's praise, because last year they donated 200,000 stone of grain. ”

Yuan Yun snorted and said, "Where is it enough to donate 200,000 stones?" Now that the army is about to go on a northern expedition to Karasuma, the more food the better, the Chen family should tighten their belts at this time, eat bran vegetables for the whole family, and then contribute all the food. ”

Zhen Mi was taken aback and said, "How does this make their Chen family always strong, how can it be possible to hand over all the grain to the imperial court, it is absolutely impossible." ”

Yuan Yun glanced at Cao Chong, who was riding a horse outside, along the window of the frame, and immediately smiled proudly: "Everything is possible, Sister Zhen will wait and see." ”

When Yuan Yun was talking to Zhen Mi, Cao Chong was stunned on horseback, feeling that Yuan Yun had seen him countless times today, with his natural intelligence, he immediately felt that something seemed to happen, and it was related to him, but it was inconvenient to ask now, thinking about returning to Zhen's Mansion to find out.

On the afternoon of the second day, the Zhen Mansion really began to prepare with great fanfare, and the famous families in the four states were also invited, and everyone was naturally no stranger to Yuan Yun, the marquis, so everyone thought that this time they were here to climb the relationship, and no one would want to fall behind.

Of course, there are also those who don't care, such as the Chen family in Zhongshan, they looked down on the Zhen family before, after all, in this land, the past dynasties have been the largest in their family, and the current Zhen family is just the Hou Ye of Yuan Yun, but now the backstage of their family is not bad, it is Cao Sikong's close person Chen Qun, plus Chen Qun also revealed intentionally or unintentionally, and there is even Cao Cao's younger brother Cao Ren behind him, so a Yuan Yun, they don't pay much attention to it.

However, since I received the invitation, I still have to take care of the face, after all, it is also a big family, and if the etiquette is not thorough, I am afraid that it will be criticized, so the current head of the family, Chen Mi, sent his eldest son Chen Xiao to go.

Chen Xiao is naturally a kind of learner, his own Lao Tzu does not pay attention to people, he naturally does not pay attention to it, his self-esteem is even more arrogant than his Lao Tzu, Zhongshan has always been their Chen family's final say, and now the Zhen family continues to make friends around them, and even the local government will take care of them more, which does not make him jealous.

The congratulatory gift only prepared a bag of wheat, or the remaining stock of the previous year, and you could smell a musty smell through the bag, but Chen Xiao chose such a humiliating gift to come to the door.

Looking at the car at the gate of Zhen's mansion, the corners of Chen Xiao's mouth twitched constantly, his father's birthday had not been such a scene before, but now it was just an ordinary family banquet in Zhen's mansion, and it was able to make such a big show, it was simply humiliating the Chen family.

When he arrived at the gate of Zhen's Mansion, Chen Xiao just squinted at the two people standing at the door, one was older, and the other was younger, and it was estimated that they were not yet ten years old. ”

After speaking, Chen Xiao planned to step into the compound, he didn't have much time to accompany the ink.

It's just that Chen Xiao took a step, and was stopped by the two of them, one big and one small, only to hear the little one laugh and say: "The gifts brought by the guests are troublesome to bring in the door by yourself, I don't have much effort to help you carry this, and what is in your bag, why is it so stinky?" ”

Chen Xiao saw that this child who was less than ten years old was speaking so unkindly, his face immediately changed, and he shouted: "Get out of the way for Lao Tzu, and dare to stand in the way, believe it or not, Lao Tzu will let people smoke you to death!" ”

As soon as Chen Xiao's words came out, several people who looked like guards behind him immediately took a step forward, and then they began to stare at the old and young in front of them very fiercely, they are now very confident in their hearts, because today they are not here to celebrate the master's house, but to smash the field, and some people dressed as idlers are gathering on the periphery of Zhen's mansion, and when the banquet begins, these people will make trouble, in short, it is impossible to make Zhen's comfort today.

At this moment, the child who was less than ten years old was not panicking, but his face was full of anticipation, and he didn't know if he was scared stupidly, or if he was a fool in the first place.

Chen Xiao didn't bother to pay attention to it anymore, and continued to prepare to go to the door, but was stopped by an old man and a young man in front of him again, and then his temper really rose, and he stopped the guests at the door and didn't let them in, this is a great insult, so how can he swallow this breath?

"Beat me up!" Chen Xiao let out a loud shout, and then took a step back.

Soon, five guards who jumped out from behind Chen Xiao rushed up, all of them were athletic, and they all seemed to be good players, and then they were beaten to the ground together, even at this time they didn't know how they were killed.

"Cao Zhuang, I told you that I was going to beat you to death, look at what you are, these people can still hum, you must not have listened to my orders." Children under the age of ten were a little angry, clearly dissatisfied with the results before them.

Cao Zhuang smiled and said, "Today is the little master, you have a treat, don't make it too serious." ”

Cao Chong stomped his feet angrily, and then shouted into the gate behind him: "Don't hurry up and take down the person for me, dare to openly stab me Cao Chong, this person is really fat!" ”
