    The situation was unexpectedly calm. Yuan Shang not only did not embarrass Yuan Mai, but also hosted a banquet. This made Yuan Mai feel quite flattered. Although he knew that Yuan Shang "didn't care about drinking", he was willing to accompany him to enjoy this.  Keep on acting.  Compared to Yuan Mai and his entourage, Guo Tu, who came to visit on behalf of Yuan Tan, did not receive such good treatment.  It was only Yu Fengji who came forward to receive him and took him to Yuan Shao's bedroom for a look. He was sent out of the city without even being offered tea, let alone staying for a meal.  Although Yuan Shang hosted a banquet, Wang Shuang, Zhou Cang, and Zhu Ao did not dare to be careless. They all hung weapons on their waists and guarded them on the left and right. Only Yuan Mai and Jushou were present and drank with Yuan Shang, Shen Pei, and Feng Ji.  .  After drinking for three rounds, Yuan Shang took out his handkerchief and wiped the oil stains on his mouth, and asked: "Fourth brother, I have no choice but to replace my father as a temporary general. I can't leave Jizhou without an owner, right? I don't know.  What do you think? " "Three brothers are usually at my father's side. Since my father is seriously ill, it is appropriate for you to act temporarily. Besides, there is an imperial edict, and Yu brother has no objection!" Yuan Mai looked slightly drunk and said:  Yuan Shang agreed with what he said.  In any case, verbal protests are of little use. I might as well give in and make him happy for a few days to relax Yuan Shang's vigilance.  " If Yuan Tan asks this question, he must firmly oppose it. He must talk to others and tell lies to ghosts. It is the best way to provoke a dispute between the two brothers and reap the benefits.  "Haha He who knows the current affairs is a hero. I'm glad, brother Yu, here's a toast to you!" After hearing Yuan Mai's words, Yuan Shang was in a good mood. He felt that this little brother suddenly became less annoying, at least more pleasing to the eye than Yuan Tan.  Then he raised his glass and toasted.  "Thank you, brother, for the wine!" Yuan Mai drank the glass with a smile on his face. Laughing now is nothing, laughing at the end is the real victory!  Yuan Shang was in a good mood, and ordered the cook to add a few more dishes. He had long forgotten the idea of ??buying Yuan's house in four places, "Fourth brother. Brother Yu, let me ask you one more question, if Yuan Tan and I break out.  Conflict, I wonder who you can help? " Yuan Mai frowned slightly. Yuan Shang's question seemed casual, but he must answer carefully.  If you blurt out to help Yuan Shang, it will inevitably give people a sense of grandstanding and hypocrisy; but if you say to help Yuan Tan.  It is bound to annoy Yuan Shang, and he must give an answer carefully.  "If the right way can help a lot, the wrong way can help little. If the three brothers can focus on the overall situation, put the interests of Hebei first, and ignore personal grudges, I am willing to follow the lead of the three brothers!" Yuan Mai said this more vaguely.  Yuan Shang couldn't find fault, so he could only say angrily: "Don't worry, Fourth Brother, Brother Yu will definitely put the interests of Hebei first!" Yuan Mai accidentally saw a burly figure passing by the door and walking towards the backyard.  It's Wen Chou.  He stood up in a hurry and said apologetically: "I'm a little worried, so I'll excuse you for a moment!" Yuan Shang was also slightly drunk.  Not noticing Yuan Mai's intention, he nodded in agreement: "Fourth brother, please help yourself!" With Yuan Shang's permission, Yuan Mai quickly left the banquet room and took a shortcut from the back door to the inner courtyard to copy Wen Chou; although Yuan's mansion was spacious,  But Yuan Mai had grown up here for more than ten years, and relying on his subconscious memory, he walked around in front of Wen Chou, who was walking with his head down, and bumped into Wen Chou, who was walking with his head down.  "Who?" Wen Chou went home and took a shower.  After changing his clothes and eating a quick bite of food, he rushed back to guard Yuan Shao.  I was worried all the way and kept my head down as I walked. I bumped into someone in the corridor and hurriedly raised my head to ask.  This guy¡¯s body is really tough, as strong as a bison.  Although Yuan Mai bumped into him intentionally and was prepared, he was still shot away and staggered a few steps.  Nearly fell.  "Who did I think he was? It turned out to be the Fourth Young Master. Forgive me, forgive me!" Wen Chou saw clearly that the person he bumped into was none other than Yuan Mai, the "filial son" who cried loudly to Yuan Shao this morning.  Da was surprised and hurriedly stepped forward to support Yuan Mai and apologized repeatedly.  "I wonder what the fourth son is in such a hurry for?" There is a saying called "Love the house and the bird." Because he is loyal to his lord Yuan Shao, Wen Chou was infected by Yuan Mai's crying in the morning and had a good impression of Yuan Shao's son.  Yuan Mai turned around and glanced around to make sure that Yuan Shang's eyes and ears were not following him, then he quietly lowered his voice and said softly: "I have some private words, especially for General Wen!" "You have something private to say to me?" Wen Chou was quite surprised.  , I have nothing to do with Yuan Mai, who is the governor of Bingzhou, what does he have to say to me?  He stretched out his hand and rubbed the hard beard on his cheek, and whispered: "Master?What to say, Wen Chou is all ears?  " "The trees are beautiful in the forest, but the wind will destroy them!"  " Yuan Mai spoke quickly and explained the matter: "Yecheng is now Yuan Shang's world. General Wen must not offend him in the future, otherwise it will cause great disasters and cause Hebei to lose the general.  Heartache!  " Wen Chou's eyes widened, and he looked fearless: "I am loyal to the Yuan family, through life and death, what can Yuan Shang do to me?  Besides, I have thousands of dead soldiers under my command, so I¡¯m not afraid of him!  " "It's easy to dodge an open gun but hard to defend against a hidden arrow. General Wen needs to remember this sentence!"  " Yuan Mai warned in a serious tone: "You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must have the intention of guarding against others. If Yuan Shang uses underhanded tactics, it will be impossible to prevent him.  Besides, everyone is greedy. If Yuan Shang bribes your soldiers with huge sums of money and salary to plot against the general, it will be a disaster!  " Although Wen Chou is a martial artist, he is not mentally retarded. After some thought, he agreed with Yuan Mai's words and said, "Thank you, Fourth Young Master, for reminding me. Wen Chou is aware of this. I will be even more careful from now on!"  " "In my opinion, General Wen might as well find an excuse to send his troops out of Yecheng, so that he will be safe and sound. If the general has nowhere to go, I, Bingzhou, welcome the general at any time, and I am willing to work with the general to achieve a great cause!  "Yuan Mai rolled his eyes and tried to win over Wen Chou to see if he could be brought under his command. But what was disappointing was that Wen Chou did not accept the olive branch offered by Yuan Mai. He shook his head and said, "Thank you for your love, sir, but as long as the lord  One day, I will not leave him. As long as Wen Chou survives, I will protect him!  " Unexpectedly, Wen Chou was so loyal to Yuan Shao. This surprised Yuan Mai and at the same time he was in awe. " General Wen is really a loyal man. Yuan Mai admires him and is happy for his father!  Wen Chou touched the beard on both cheeks and whispered: "Please forgive Wen Chou for speaking bluntly. I don't want to get involved in the fight between your brothers. I just want to be loyal to the Lord."  As long as the lord tells me who will be his heir, I will definitely help him to the death; but now that the lord is unconscious, I can only wait for him to wake up, and I will not participate in your competition for the time being" Yuan Mai sighed in his heart.  , What a pity, with the current medical ability, it is impossible for Yuan Shao to wake up. No matter how long he waits, he will be disappointed in the end! But with Yuan Shang¡¯s experience this morning, Yuan Mai does not dare to tell the truth again, so as not to offend him!  He wanted to win over Wen Chou and let him follow him to Bingzhou to strengthen his strength; but since Wen Chou's attitude was so firm, Yuan Mai wanted to win over Wen Chou.  So he changed his original intention and tried to build a good relationship with him. If one day, he and Yuan Shang were at war with each other, and the Bingzhou army was at the foot of Ye County, maybe he could persuade Wen Chou to join him from the city, and then he could easily capture Ye City.  It was not possible to take Wen Chou under his command for the time being, so it would be a clever move to hide Wen Chou in the enemy's heart. Yuan Mai bowed his hands and put his sleeves to the ground: "Bingzhou is busy with official affairs, and Mai may not be able to stay in Ye County for a long time, so my father entrusted him with it.  General Wen took care of it!  " Wen Chou hurriedly returned the courtesy: "Young Master, you are serious. Wen Chou is a reckless man. He has received such great kindness from his lord, how dare he not swear to repay it even to the death?  Don't worry, sir, I, Wen Chou, will protect my lord with my life.  " Yuan Shao is basically no different from death now. Yuan Mai is not worried that someone will plot against him. He just said these polite words to win over Wen Chou. Hearing Wen Chou's impassioned promise, Yuan Mai suddenly thought of Mrs. Zheng. If that day  If this stepmother had not stepped forward and secured a place at the banquet, her achievements would not have been so smooth; now that Yuan Shao is unconscious, she is afraid that the Liu family and her son will be unfavorable to her. How can Mrs. Zheng compete with the introduction of a female child? "Wen"  General, I have one more thing to ask of you, and I hope you will agree to it!  " Yuan Mai bowed solemnly to Wen Chou again and put forward his request. Wen Chou was also happy and glanced around: "While there is no one around, it's okay for you to speak up. As long as it's not a competition between your brothers, Wen Chou will do his best.  And for!  " "My mother, Mrs. Zheng, took great care of Yuan Mai. She was kind-hearted and virtuous. She was deeply loved by my father, which made Mrs. Liu very jealous.  Now that my father is seriously ill and unconscious, I cannot stay in Yecheng for a long time, for fear that Mrs. Liu will be unfavorable to Mrs. Zheng. While I am away, I hope that General Wen will protect my mother, Mrs. Zheng, for my father's sake!  " Wen Chou nodded and promised: "This can be done. Anyway, I plan to guard the Lord every day, waiting for him to wake up, just in time to take care of Mrs. Zheng's safety. If Mrs. Liu is domineering and bullying others, I will definitely speak out!  " "General Wen really understands justice. Yuan Mai is here to thank the general for his mother!"  "Yuan Mai bowed to Wen Chou again and thanked him.  "This is Yuan Shang's residence. It's inconvenient to say more, so just leave here!" Wen Chou crossed his arms, took big steps, and walked towards the ward in the inner courtyard like a shooting star.  Yuan Mai also observed the surroundings vigilantly, then quickly walked into the toilet, emptied heartily, and then walked out slowly.  Returning to the banquet living room, he saw that Yuan Shang and others were chatting happily with Jushou and seemed to have not noticed his whereabouts. Only then did Yuan Shang feel relieved and said, "I'm really sorry for keeping my brother and two adults waiting for so long!  "
