Can I get to the other side?

When Yuan Xi showed up, Xu You was startled, because Yuan Xi looked so horrible!

His hair was disheveled, his body was covered with blood, and he was holding four heads that were constantly dripping blood. He looked like a demon.

Behind him, Tian Feng and Shen Pei followed with heavy faces.

"Pah!"

Yuan Xi casually threw the four bloody heads on the ground, and one of them just rolled to the feet of Xu You and Ju Shou.

The two looked down and saw that it was Yuan Shang's head, and they were all horrified!

They looked up and looked forward, and the other three heads were also very familiar.

They were Feng Ji, Guo Tu, and Xin Ping.

"This... what is going on!"

Ju Shou's face was pale and he spoke in a trembling voice.

"As you can see, they were killed by me personally."

Yuan Xi said lightly, as if the people he killed were just pariahs in the countryside outside the city.

Ju Shou looked up and stared at Yuan Xi, his heart full of anger, and asked in a stern voice: "Why did the second son kill the third son and the three confidants of the general!"

It took him only half an hour to lead the troops from the general's mansion, but he didn't expect that he was still a step late, causing the death of Yuan Shang and Feng Ji and others!

Unlike Ju Shou, Xu You was ecstatic after the initial shock.

Yuan Xi actually killed Yuan Shang and appeared here, which means that his mutiny was successful.

Yuan Shao might have been killed by a murderer at this time.

Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, Xu You was still cautious before confirming the news of Yuan Shao's death.

He pretended to be angry and scolded Yuan Xi: "Yuan Xi! Do you know what you are doing? You even killed your own brother. Aren't you afraid of the general's punishment!"

"What did I do? I was eliminating thieves for my father!" Yuan Xi sneered and said without any emotion: "Yuan Shang, Feng Ji, Xin Ping, and Guo Tu held my father hostage and plotted to succeed the throne. They have been killed on the spot by this son!"

"My father was furious and fainted because of Yuan Shang, this rebellious son. I am here to take charge of all the affairs in the city and eliminate Yuan Shang's accomplices! Here is the decree!"

Yuan Xi took out the decree from his arms and threw it to Xu You and Ju Su.

The two unfolded it and saw that the content written on it was indeed as Yuan Xi said.

And it was also stamped with the seal of the general and Yuan Shao's private seal, which was undoubtedly Yuan Shao's decree.

"This is impossible!" Ju Su naturally couldn't believe Yuan Xi so easily, and asked in a sharp tone: "I want to see the general and confirm this matter with the general in person!"

Yuan Shang, Feng Ji and others have been waiting outside Yuan Shao's wing room all day today. When did they hold Yuan Shao hostage?

He saw Yuan Xi lead his troops into the mansion with his own eyes, and now he is clearly blaming him.

Yuan Xi snorted angrily and said: "This young master said that my father was in a coma due to anger! To protect my father's safety, no one can see him before this young master thoroughly investigates all the traitors and accomplices!"

"This matter has Shen Zhizhong and Tian Biejia as witnesses for this young master!"

After that, Yuan Xi looked at Shen Pei and Tian Feng who had been standing silently behind without saying a word.

Xu You, Ju Su, and the city defense troops they brought with them also focused their eyes on the two.

"Yuan Hao, is it really as the second young master said?"

Ju Su stared at Tian Feng intently. He believed that Tian Feng would never lie with his character.

Tian Feng opened his mouth, wanting to refute Yuan Xi's lies in person.

But when he thought of Yuan Shao's safety, he felt furious.

After a long silence, he slowly said: "It is true as the second son said. The third son and Feng Ji, Xin Ping, Guo Tu and others wanted to hold the lord hostage and seize the throne. Fortunately, the lord had already noticed it and secretly ordered the second son to lead the troops into the city to kill them all."

Ju Su's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

Was Tian Feng lying with his eyes open, or was what he saw in the mansion just now an illusion?

He looked at Shen Pei beside Tian Feng in disbelief.

Seeing this, Shen Pei also nodded and said: "That's right."

Although Tian Feng and Shen Pei were unwilling in their hearts, they had to cooperate with Yuan Xi for the safety of Yuan Shao.

As long as they continued to play this drama and pretend to be submissive, there might be a chance to save Yuan Shao in the future.

Ju Su was still very angry at first, but after thinking carefully, he understood everything in an instant.

Neither Tian Feng nor Shen Pei were cowards.

There was only one reason that could threaten them and force them to help Yuan Xi lie, and that was Yuan Shao's safety!

In other words, Yuan Shao was not worried about his life at the moment.

Ju Su felt a little relieved. As long as Yuan Shao was not dead, everything would be fine.

Xu You, who was standing aside, saw Shen Pei and Tian Feng helping Yuan Xi cover up the truth, and also understood that Yuan Shao was not dead, and felt a pity in his heart.

He cursed Yuan Xi for being a young man who was not worth cooperating with.

"Why did you leave your post without your father's order? Are you also Yuan Shang's accomplices?"

Yuan Xi's eyes were like lightning, and he continued to attack, looking viciously at the four guards who were gradually rushing to the general's mansion.

Ximen Guard said quickly: "Second Master, I heard from the military supervisor that something had happened in the general's mansion, so I led the troops to help. Second Master, you know me. I have had a bad relationship with Yuan Shang since I was a child, and I can't be his accomplice."

At this time, Ximen Guard was panicked.

He didn't expect that opening the city gate to let Yuan Xi in would directly lead to the death of the third master and several other important figures.

Are they really the traitors who were killed for holding Yuan Shao hostage?

Ximen Guard didn't dare to think about it, nor did he want to think about it.

Yuan Xi said loudly: "I have killed all the traitors around my father, and the general's palace is safe. I have been ordered by my father to take over the affairs of Ye City. Pass my order, and the whole city will be under martial law immediately. No one is allowed to enter or leave the city gate. !”

"promise!"

Guardsman Ximen was the first to promise.

The North Gate Guards, the South Gate Guards, and the East Gate Guards Xu You could only obey orders.

Seeing Yuan Xi giving orders continuously, Xu You began to make calculations in his mind.

"Although this guy didn't kill Yuan Shao, he is probably just under house arrest. If I create chaos now and notify the imperial guards to come over, facing four thousand city defense troops, as long as they rush to kill regardless of life and death, there is definitely a chance to kill Yuan Xi and Yuan Shao... …”

However, as soon as Xu You's idea emerged, he was dismissed by Yuan Xi's words.

Yuan Xi once again took out an order from his arms and handed it to the deputy general of Huziying who was standing next to him.

"You take this order out of the city, give it to General Yan Liang, and order him to lead his troops to station under the city, ready to be dispatched at any time!"

"No!" The deputy general of Huziying took the order with both hands and left.

Seeing this, Xu You's heart instantly went cold.

If there are only 4,000 city defense troops and 500 tiger-shaped battalions, then with the bravery of Zhang He and Gao Lan, plus a thousand imperial guards, the chance of killing Yuan Shao in the chaos is as high as 30 to 40%.

But now Yuan Xi sent people out of the city with the order, and Yan Liang would lead his army to the city gate within an hour at most.

Once he gets the news of the fighting in the city, he will definitely lead his troops into the city.

And within an hour, it was impossible for a thousand Imperial Guards to break through the formation of the four thousand city defense troops and the five hundred tiger-shaped battalions.

Killing Yuan Shao and Yuan Xi is even more nonsense.

Instead, Yan Liang arrived with his army and everything stopped.

"Damn it!" Xu You gritted his teeth, unwilling to give in.

Although Yuan Shao is not dead, the current situation is far better than before for the emperor.

Compared with Yuan Shao, Yuan Xi is not worth mentioning at all.

As orders were issued one after another, Yuan Xi's heartstrings, which had been tense all night, finally relaxed slightly.

After arranging everything, he took Tian Feng, Shen Pei and coerced Ju Sue back to the general's mansion.

…

Thirty miles away from Yecheng, there is the Jizhou Army camp.

The deputy general of Huziying handed the order to Yan Liang in person and said respectfully: "The general has an order. General Yan is ordered to lead 20,000 Jizhou troops to station at the four gates of the southeast, northwest and northwest of Yecheng, ready for dispatch at any time!"

Yan Liang took the order, glanced at the contents, and realized that something big had happened in the city. He couldn't help but frown and asked, "Why did the general suddenly order me to send troops there?"

"I, I don't know, general." Faced with Yan Liang's inquiry, the deputy general felt his heart skip a beat, but he still had to bite the bullet and replied in a low voice: "This is the general's order, and the general is just passing on the order."

Yuan Xi told him that he could just ask questions and not know anything.

There are so many wrong things to say.

He didn't say anything. Although Yan Liang had doubts in his heart, he didn't think much about it.

Yan Liang took the order and read it several times. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the general's seal on it, he did not continue to inquire further.

Anyway, it was the general's order, so he just had to do it.

"This general knows."

Yan Liang put away the order, stood up, put on his armor, and called the commander.

"Command the entire army to rush to Yecheng!"

…

royal palace.

After Xu You entered the palace, Liu Xie called Jia Xu and Guo Jia to the announcement room.

As soon as he saw Xu You, Jia Xu couldn't wait to ask: "Did Yuan Xi succeed or fail?"

Guo Jia didn't speak, but looked at Xu You with bright eyes.

Both wanted to know whether the plan to "kill the father with his son" was successful.

After Xu You considered his words, he said: "The plan was successful... but it was not completely successful."

"What do you mean?" Guo Jia and Jia Xu both frowned in confusion.

Yuan Xi's uprising can only succeed or fail. Is there a third way out?

Xu You said: "Yuan Xi led troops into the Yuan Mansion and killed all four of them, Yuan Shang, Feng Ji, Guo Tu, and Xin Ping. But he did not kill Yuan Shao, but imprisoned him in the mansion..."

He told everything that happened tonight, in detail.

"...Yuan Xi, under the pretense of Yuan Shao's order, ordered Yan Liang to lead his troops and station them at the four city gates to await dispatch. Now the whole city is under martial law and no one is allowed to enter or exit. Outside Yuan's Mansion, there are two thousand city defense troops on standby at all times, and inside the Mansion there are also There are five hundred soldiers from the Tiger Camp guarding it."

"Previously, I thought that the imperial guards could not break through the Yuan Mansion and kill Yuan Shao and Yuan Xi before Yan Liang led his troops into the city, so I did not send a message and asked the imperial guards to stand still."

After hearing everything that happened during Yuan Xi's uprising tonight, Liu Xie couldn't help but cursed: "We've already made it this far, why not kill Yuan Shao too? If Yuan Shao doesn't die, Jushou and Shenpei will never surrender to him, Yuan Xi!" "

No one present, including Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Xu You, understood Yuan Xi's behavior.

If Yuan Shao doesn't die, it will be a disaster for Yuan Xi!

Since you have already killed your own brother, now that you have decided to seize power, how can you be merciful at a critical moment?

Guo Jia sighed: "Yuan Xi thought that by imprisoning Yuan Shao, he could force Tian Feng and Shen Pei to surrender, and use Yuan Shao's power for his own use, but he never thought about whether his prestige was enough! "

"If Yuan Shao doesn't die, Tian Feng and Shen Pei will not be able to truly surrender. They will only think about how to help Yuan Shao get out of trouble all the time!"

Jia Xu's face was gloomy and he couldn't help scolding: "Shu Zi is not good enough! He thinks he is smart, but in fact he is extremely stupid!"

At this time, he was extremely angry. Yuan Xi's random tampering with his plan was simply superfluous. It not only made the mutiny to seize power nondescript, but also made their plans behind the scenes a waste!

"What a pity for such a good opportunity." Guo Jia sighed with great regret.

Xu You's worries were correct. A thousand imperial guardsmen were indeed unable to break through the Yuan Mansion before Yan Liang entered the city, and there would still be a risk of being exposed.

"I'm going to find Yuan Xi!"

Jia Xu said in a deep voice, murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

"This opportunity must not be missed before it comes again! Yuan Shao must die no matter what, so we must not let this opportunity go to waste!"

Even if Feng Ji, Guo Tu and others died, it was already a great harvest.

But this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Jia Xu and others, including Liu Xie, are not satisfied. What they want is to complete their achievements in one battle.

…

The General's Mansion.

Outside the wing where Yuan Shao was imprisoned, there were at least twenty elite soldiers from the Tiger Battalion taking turns guarding, prohibiting anyone except Yuan Xi from approaching.

Shen Pei, Tian Feng and Ju Shu followed Yuan Xi into the courtyard, but before they had taken two steps, they were stopped by the guards.

"Yuan Xi! What do you want!" Tian Feng suppressed his anger, stared at Yuan Xi's back and said loudly: "We have covered it up for you according to your instructions. Is it possible that you have to attack the general?"

"Tian Biejia, what are you talking about?" Yuan Xi stopped, turned to look at the two of them, and spoke calmly.

"All I ask for is the heir, so why would I do anything to my father? I still need your help."

"As long as you are willing to serve me, I will not treat you any wrong, let alone touch your people. As for my father, as a son of man, I should let him live in peace and contentment."

As he said that, he waved his hand and said, "It's already getting late. You guys have been working hard all night, so please rest in the mansion."

Several soldiers came forward and took Tian Feng and the others to the guest room of the General's Mansion to rest.

Yuan Xi strode into the courtyard, pushed past Yuan Shao's wing and entered.

As soon as the door opened, a boot flew over.

Yuan Xi turned slightly to avoid it, and caught the boot easily.

At this time, Yuan Shaozheng, who was wearing a lining in the wing room, looked at Yuan Xi with a livid face, his eyes filled with boundless anger, and said word by word: "Get out of here!"

He woke up when Yuan Xi was giving orders outside the mansion. When he woke up and saw the blood stains in the yard and the soldiers guarding him, he understood everything and his current situation - he was imprisoned!

"Why is father so angry?"

Yuan Xi walked into the wing slowly, leaned over and put the boots on Yuan Shao's feet, and said with a puzzled look on his face:

"My father didn't want me to be cowardly and wanted me to fight, so I would fight. I just did what my father expected. Why is my father still angry because of this? Could it be that what I did was not good enough. "

"My expectations?"

Yuan Shao laughed angrily, kicked away Yuan Xi who was helping him put on his boots, and angrily shouted: "When did I teach you to commit crimes below, and when did I teach you to imprison your biological father!"

"Where's Xianfu? What did you do to him?"

What he was most concerned about at this time was who Yuan Xi had killed tonight and whose blood stains in the yard belonged to him. How is Yuan Shang doing now?

"Father really cares about the third brother the most."

Yuan Xi sighed, then raised his head and grinned at Yuan Shao.

"It's a pity that he is dead."
