There are many merchants coming and going in Yecheng, and there are many pavilions in the city to entertain foreign guests.

Walking through the streets and alleys to a building far away from the Yuan family, Neiying looked left and right, felt that no one was watching, and quickly got in.

In a wine shop opposite, the two men glanced at each other.

Yuan Kang has a wide range of contacts in Yecheng, and his eyeliner is all over the street, how can Nei Ying find that someone is watching?

One man was left in the liquor store to continue to observe, and the other quickly left.

About half a cup of tea had passed, and before Nei Ying had left, a group of Yuan Jun ran quickly along the street.

"Surround this place!" The lead officer gives the order.

Yuan Jun surrounded the building, and more than a dozen people rushed in with the officers.

The officer led the people into the building, and the judge arrived with a few people on horseback.

Stopping his mount, he stared coldly at the door.

"Let's go!" After a while, Yuan Jun, who rushed into the hall, walked out with a man and a woman.

The woman is the Cao family.

The man is dressed in ayara, but his face is ordinary.

Throw him into the crowd and disappear in the blink of an eye.

"Enlighten the trial!" The officer saluted the judge and said, "There are only two people to find here!" ”

"Take it back!"

"What are the two of us guilty of?" Twisted by Yuan Jun, the Ayaluo man shouted with a dissatisfied face: "A certain foreign merchant went to Yecheng to sell goods for a living, what crime did he commit?" ”

"What's the crime?" The judge snorted coldly: "The woman next to you is the maid of the Yuan family, seducing the slave and maid of the Yuan family with the intention of committing adultery, and still dare to argue that she is not guilty?" ”

The Ayara man was immediately speechless.

If the judge identifies him as a spy on the street, he can still defend himself with clever words.

said that he seduced the slaves and maids of the Yuan family, and arrested them again.

Even if he has a mouth all over his body, he can't tell!

Lonely men and widows live in the same room in the building, if they just sit for a while, even if the untrained girl listens to it, they don't believe it!

"Take it away!" The judge shouted.

The two were escorted to the official mansion by Yuan Jun.

Half an hour later. The trial and Yuan Xu each rushed to one place.

It was the Yuan family who went to the trial.

From Nei Ying's mouth, he already knew that the rumors came from the mouth of Dong Qing's maid.

The matter has been ascertained, and Yuan Shao must be given an explanation.

Yuan Xu went to the prison where the people who spread rumors were imprisoned.

When he arrived at the cell, he went straight to the cell where the prisoners were kept.

"Who was arrested for spreading rumors?" Standing between the two rows of cells, Yuan Xu asked the cell leader.

"Back to the fifth son, most of the people who are detained here are ......"

"Let them all go!"

The cell boss was taken aback. didn't dare to obey the order immediately: "This matter is personally supervised by Yuan Gong......"

"I was ordered by my father to inquire about this matter, could it be that you have any doubts?"

"Don't dare! Don't dare," the cell boss responded and shouted to a few guards: "What are you doing in a daze? Don't let anyone go! ”

The guards were about to release the people, but Yuan Xu shouted: "Wait! ”

Looking back at him, everyone looked puzzled.

After being held for several days, most of the people in the prison were expected to die.

When Yuan Xu came here, there were still people shouting that they were wronged.

Hearing him say about the release, the prisoners who saw a glimmer of life rushed to the bars of their cells. One by one, they looked at him with their eyes on the fence.

"Do you know why you were caught?" Yuan Xu asked coldly.

No one answered.

It is obvious that they regarded the affairs of the Yuan family as a topic of conversation after tea, and angered Yuan Shao before he was imprisoned.

"It's a trivial matter to spread rumors, just because what you say is not true and not at the right time!" Yuan Xu said: "Cao's army is forcing Qingzhou, and our army is fighting hard. The rumor came from the mouth of Cao Cao Ye in the city, in order to bewitch the people and mess with my Yuan family! The trial was arrested, and the confession has been made! Although you can be released. But not innocent! ”

"The little people know their mistakes!" A clever middle-aged man shouted: "If you go out, you won't dare to say half a word again!" ”

"I've already said that. What's the use of shutting up? Yuan Xu said: "The rumors started because you waited, and you have to wait to calm them down!" ”

"If the son wants me to do anything, I will do what I want!" The crowd shouted in unison.

"The second brother is married to Zhen Mi, the fourth lady of the Zhen family! Cao Cao was supposed to cause trouble in Yecheng and was captured. In the first battle of Qingzhou, our army slashed tens of thousands of Cao troops, and the tiger and leopard battalion under Cao Cao was annihilated. Yuan Xu asked, "These words." Will you wait? ”

"Absolutely not!" There was one who didn't have a long brain, and he didn't think about the meaning of Yuan Xu's words, so he responded immediately.

"Huh?" With a long nasal voice, Yuan Xu looked over.

"Yes! Yes! Of course it will be said! The man who was in the same cell with the man stomped on his feet. Shouting against the fence.

"Who else would say?"

"I'll wait!" The crowd responded in a hurry.

"Let it go!" Yuan Xu ordered the guards to open the cell doors one by one.

Out of the cell, everyone who escaped death knelt down and kowtowed to Yuan Xu.

"Let's all go back!" Yuan Xu's tone was much better than just now: "Remember, say what you should say in the future, don't talk nonsense if you shouldn't say it!" ”

Everyone responded without stopping and left with a thousand thanks.

released the rumor-mongers, but in just one day, the direction of the rumors in Yecheng changed greatly.

Yuan Xi's marriage to Zhen Mi has become a sure fact.

The defeat of Cao's army in Qingzhou has also become a hot topic of discussion on the streets.

The rumors that were unfavorable to the Yuan family were gone, and they were replaced by a song of praise!

The trial met with Yuan Shao, and did not implicate Dong Qing, only saying that the maid beside her had benefited and spread rumors in the city.

The matter has subsided, and the new rumors are quite in line with Yuan Shao's mind,

was in a good mood, and he didn't want to delve into the matter, so Mrs. Liu reprimanded Dong Qing, lifted Zhen Xiao's house arrest and appeased her.

After receiving the general training, Dong Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

is very smart, how could she not know that Yuan Xu let her go?

returned to his residence and burned Zhen Xiao's "handwritten" letters, Dong Qing temporarily stopped, not daring to easily cause trouble again.

The rumors in Yecheng have been resolved, but Qingzhou is in frequent wars.

Cheng Yu and Zang Ba led the army to re-enter Qingzhou and joined the Qingzhou army under Sun Guan and others, and the number exceeded that of Yuan's army several times.

Yuan's army suffered repeated defeats, Cao's army captured cities again and again, and Qingzhou was in a hurry.

Yuan Shao's mood was better, and he received an urgent document sent by Yuan Tan.

He immediately ordered Yuan Xu to lead 3,000 troops, with Gao Ran as the main general and Guo Tu as the military advisor, to rush to Qingzhou.

When Yuan Xu went to Qingzhou, Yuan Shao promised to send Gao Lan to help.

Gao Ran has not yet made the trip, the war in Qingzhou has ended, and the army stationed in Yecheng has not set out for a long time.

The soldiers waited for the day, Yuan Shao's order was issued, and Gao Lan was completely prepared on the same day.

The military situation was urgent, and Yuan Xu did not dare to delay.

Going to Mrs. Zhang's residence, bidding farewell to his mother, he embarked on the journey to Qingzhou again.

repeatedly defeated Cheng Yu and Zang Ba, and the Yuan family had great expectations for him to lead the army.

Led the army out of Yecheng, Yuan Xu glanced back.

At the head of the city, Yuan Shao, who came to see him off in person, was looking at him from afar...... (To be continued.) )
