Yuan Fang exhaled slowly, his eyes suddenly opened, and a trace of excitement flashed in his dark eyes.
His spirit was extremely excited, but his body seemed to be suffering from a serious illness. His face was pale, his breath was weak, and there was a layer of cold sweat on his forehead.
"This virus is really powerful. If I hadn't worked hard over the past year, I might not have been able to survive it, and I don't know if it had any effect."
Yuan Fang stood up tremblingly, his eyes fell on the lame leg, he took a deep breath and tried to take a step forward.
A steady step.
No more stumbling or limping, Yuan Fang's leg, which had been disabled for many years, took a steady step forward.
In an instant, endless ecstasy surged into his heart, and Yuan Fang was so excited that he almost shouted out.
This lame leg that caused me to be discriminated against and hindered me from regaining my dignity was finally cured!
Yuan Fang¡¯s ecstatic gaze fell on the empty syringe on the case.
This time Yuan Fang went out for more than two months in the name of searching for a miracle doctor. In fact, he was going to the Taihang Mountains to find the crashed military plane.
What was loaded on the plane was a biochemical virus developed by the military in later generations. Although this virus is fatally contagious, it can be used to treat many terminal diseases that cannot be cured by conventional medicine.
Yuan Fang knew that in this era of backward medicine, only that dose of virus was the only chance to cure his leg disease.
After more than a year of inquiring and two months of arduous searching, God paid off, and Yuan Fang finally found the crashed plane and the intact freezer.
"My legs are already healed. The next step is to find a way to leave the Yuan family. It is best to pull out an army and set up my own business. As my illegitimate son, I will stay in the Yuan family no matter how hard I try, there will be no results"
Yuan Fang walked around the room excitedly, his thoughts racing, making plans for the future.
At this time, Xiaocha's voice came from outside the door: "Sir, the lord has sent someone again and asked the master to go to the hall to greet the distinguished guests."
"Yuan"
When the word "Yuan Shao" came to his lips, Yuan Fang swallowed it back and said suspiciously: "Didn't my father only pass it on to those three people? Why did he pass it on to me now?"
"The messenger said that it was Mr. Tian's persuasion that the lord sent the young master to go." Xiaocha explained.
The Mr. Tian mentioned by Xiaocha is none other than Tian Feng, an important staff member under Yuan Shao.
"I don't know who this distinguished guest is. Yuan Shao wants to call everyone here, and Tian Feng actually speaks for me. It seems that he is not a snobbish person"
Yuan Fang restrained his ecstasy, calmed down, opened the door and walked out.
When Xiaocha saw Yuan Fang, he couldn't wait to ask: "Sir, will the magic medicine be effective?"
"I just took it. It doesn't work so quickly. Let's go and see my father." Yuan Fang continued to limp out.
Before the next step is planned, Yuan Fang does not intend to reveal that his leg has been cured too soon.
A bit of disappointment flashed in Xiaocha's eyes, and she sighed softly, then quickly followed and supported Yuan Fang.
After passing through the remote backyard, we finally stopped outside the reception hall. There was chatter and laughter inside, and the atmosphere was quite lively.
Just as Yuan Fang stepped up the steps, a sarcastic voice came from behind: "Father didn't tell someone, but someone came uninvited. He is quite thick-skinned."
Looking back at the familiar voice, it was Yuan Xi.
He put on a gorgeous new suit, which made him look more energetic. He didn't know who this distinguished guest was, so Yuan Xi hurried back to change his outfit.
Yuan Fang was too lazy to pay attention to him, turned a blind eye to him, and continued to move forward.
"Not long after the third young master left, the lord sent someone again to invite the second young master." Xiaocha hurriedly explained for Yuan Fang.
Yuan Xi frowned, showing a bit of dissatisfaction, and snorted disdainfully: "In that case, you have to watch the road carefully, be careful of limping your leg, falling over, and losing me, Yuan, in front of the distinguished guests. The face of home.¡±
In the open sarcasm, Yuan Xi strode past Yuan Fang with his head held high, and rudely pushed aside a servant who was standing in front of him and had no time to avoid him.
The servant screamed, his feet softened, and he slipped down the steps.
Yuan Fang, who was only a short distance away, stretched out his hand to support the servant.
As soon as his hand touched his waist, Yuan Fang felt a burst of softness. It didn't feel like a man's waist. When he looked up again, what he saw was a fair and fair face.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: The servant's body was still exuding a faint fragrance of powder, which hit his nostrils.
"It's actually a woman?The man pretending to be a domestic servant, I don¡¯t know whose room it is, dares to act mischievously on such an occasion"
In a few breaths, Yuan Fang saw through the servant, but did not expose her. He helped her up and asked softly: "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, thank you young master." The servant blushed, replied in a low voice, and quickly walked into the hall.
Yuan Fang didn¡¯t think too much about this strange servant. He took a deep breath and walked into the hall with Xiao Cha¡¯s support.
The hall is very spacious, showing majesty and solemnity everywhere.
There were a lot of people in the hall. Except for Yuan Mai, who was just born, all the sons of the Yuan family were present.
The disciples of the Yuan family all knelt and sat on the left side, while on the right side sat some distinguished staff.
The middle-aged man kneeling in front of him, dressed in rich clothes, with slightly gray hair on his temples, and his eyes that seem to be closed but not closed, gives people a feeling of mastering infinite power.
Wherever this person sits, he has an intimidating majesty that makes people unable to look directly at him and can only bow their heads obediently.
He is the real owner of the Chariot General's Mansion, the ruler of Jizhou, Yuan Shao, who is famous all over the world and comes from a wealthy family.
The middle-aged man who was kneeling opposite Yuan Shao had a rich appearance and a smile on his face, giving him the aura of a rich man.
And the servant dressed as a man stood beside the distinguished guest.
At this moment, this distinguished guest was praising Yuan Xi for his talent, and that the father of a tiger has no son.
"Uncle Shi is so complimentary, but my foolish nephew cannot bear it." Yuan Xi's words were very modest, but he could not hide his pride in his brows.
Yuan Shao also nodded slightly, seeming to appreciate his son very much.
After receiving some praise, Yuan Xi stepped aside with a proud face and knelt down next to his eldest son Yuan Tan.
No one noticed Yuan Fang, as if he was air.
Yuan Fang didn't take it seriously, limping forward and bowing his hands to Yuan Shao.
At this time, everyone in the hall saw Yuan Fang, and contempt flashed across most of their faces.
Yuan Xi even sneered and stared at Yuan Fang, as if he were staring at a joke.
Yuan Shao didn't even look at him, but ordered in a cold tone: "I'd better pay my respects to you, Zhen Shibo, soon."
"This person's surname is Zhen, and he is a family friend of Yuan Shao. Who is he?"
Yuan Fang's thoughts were racing in his heart. He cupped his hands and said, neither arrogant nor humble, "I have met Zhen Shibo."
Most of the smile on Zhen Guike's face disappeared, and he just nodded slightly to him. His attitude towards Yuan Fang was completely different from when he praised Yuan Xi just now.
¡°Obviously, this distinguished guest named Zhen has a sharp eye, and he can also see Yuan Fang¡¯s status in the Yuan family.
Yuan Shao didn¡¯t say another word to Yuan Fang, and only waved his hand indifferently.
Yuan Fang calmly stepped back, turned around and scanned the left side, but was shocked to find that there was no place for him.
Looking at Yuan Fang who was standing still, the children of the Yuan family couldn't help laughing, obviously they really enjoyed seeing him make a fool of himself.
Especially Yuan Xi, who smiled the most proudly, and there was a hint of mystery in the slits of his narrowed eyes.
"It seems that this boy Yuan Xi is the one who deliberately embarrass me in front of so many people!"
Yuan Fang frowned secretly, clenched his fists slightly, and a surge of anger grew in his heart.
"Steward Zhao, hurry up and arrange a seat for the second young master." On the right, the elder with half-white beard and hair and a solemn face shouted in a deep voice.
The person who spoke was none other than Tian Feng.
"Ahem, it was a small oversight. I forgot that the second young master is coming too. Haha, I'll ask someone to prepare immediately." Butler Zhao, who was stared at by Tian Feng, smiled lightly and patted his forehead "blaming himself" , but the sarcasm in his eyes was not covered up much.
After a while, the servant placed a futon in the corner where the disciples were last.
Under the sarcastic gazes of everyone, Yuan Fang walked to the corner and knelt down calmly.
At this time, Yuan Shao above was chatting with the guest named Zhen and had no time to pay attention to the injustice suffered by his illegitimate son.
"In the battle of Jieqiao, Duke Yuan used his troops to great effect. He killed Gongsun Zan and fled in embarrassment. He was really majestic. I wonder when Duke Yuan will send his troops north to wipe out Youzhou and unify Hebei?" Zhen Guike complimented with a smile.
Yuan Shao was not arrogant, and laughed at himself: "The victory in the battle of Jieqiao was a fluke. If you want to counterattack Youzhou, you have to recruit troops. But now that Jizhou has been decided, the treasury is empty, and Shao still needs Brother Ziran and other Hebei squires." Everyone, please give us your full support.¡±
¡°Gong Yuan¡¯s rule over Hebei is really a blessing to us Hebei scholars.It's true that I can't help you with all my strength. Yi Yi came to visit this time and brought 100 million yuan to donate to Mr. Yuan as a labor force. "
One hundred million dollars is really generous.
Yuan Fang now guessed who this person was. Judging from this move, this person must be Zhen Yi, the richest man in Hebei.
The three richest people in the world, the Zhen family in Hebei, the Mi family in Xuzhou, and the Lu family in Yangzhou, are all extremely wealthy families.
"Yuan Shao wants to defeat Gongsun Zan and capture Hebei. Naturally, he urgently needs a rich man like Zhen Yi to provide him with financial and food support. No wonder this person can receive such high-level courtesy from Yuan Shao and call him brother-in-law with Yuan Shao"
Yuan Fang figured out the reason and secretly looked at Zhen Yi, but suddenly found that the female servant behind Zhen Yi who was disguised as a man was also quietly looking at him.
The eyes of the two people happened to hit each other.
The servant was slightly shaken and quickly looked away, his face turning red again.
Yuan Fang didn¡¯t think much, and his thoughts quickly turned back to the conversation between Yuan Fang and Zhen Yi.
Seeing that Zhen Yi was so generous, Yuan Shao couldn't help but smile and said with a smile: "Brother Ziran is really a generous man. Your 100 million yuan is really a timely help. The officers and soldiers of the three armies of Shao Dai, thank you so much, brother Ziran."
"Haha, Mr. Yuan made a strong statement. Based on my friendship with Mr. Yuan, this is what Yi should do."
Zhen Yi was polite for a few times, then changed the topic and said with a smile: "But in addition to paying homage to Mr. Yuan and rewarding the soldiers, Yi came here this time to have an unkind invitation."
"Brother Ziran, just say whatever you want without mercy." Yuan Shao said with a smile.
Zhen Yi coughed a few times and said with a smile: "I have a daughter at my knees. She is now close to the age of leaving the court. Therefore, Yi wants to be my little daughter and ask for Mr. Yuan's son to be a good son-in-law."
It turns out that Zhen Yi wanted to marry Yuan Shao.
"A businessman deserves to be a businessman, and he will not do business at a loss. Why is Zhen Yi so generous? It turns out that he wants to climb the big tree of the Yuan family." Yuan Fang thought to himself.
Yuan Shao laughed and said happily: "Brother Ziran and I are family friends. It would be great if we could become in-laws, then I would let"
Yuan Shao's eyes glanced at the disciples on the left, and the eyes of everyone in the hall also fell on them in unison.
Yuan Shao had five sons, the youngest son Yuan Mai was still nursing, and the eldest son Yuan Tan already had a wife. Of course, the Zhen family's precious daughter could not be a concubine.
Everyone¡¯s eyes fell on Yuan Fang, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang.
"According to the order of etiquette, Yuan Shao should choose me as his second son for this marriage, but I guess Yuan Shao will not choose a lame son for Zhen Yi as his son-in-law. He will definitely be partial." Yuan Fang secretly guessed.
Sure enough, Yuan Shao's eyes lingered on the fourth son Yuan Shang for a moment, passed directly by Yuan Fang, and finally landed on Yuan Xi.
"I will let the third son show his strength and become brother Ziran's quick son-in-law. I don't know if brother Zhen will be satisfied."
Zhen Yi raised her eyebrows with joy and said with a smile: "The third young master is a very talented person, with the demeanor of Mr. Yuan. The fact that my daughter can marry such a heroic man is really a blessing she gained from her previous life."
Yuan Xi, on the other hand, was proud of himself and smiled from ear to ear.
However, Yuan Fang sneered quietly and thought to himself: "It's just a marriage of interests. Yuan Shao can also mix in personal preferences and cannot handle it fairly. With this magnanimity, how can he not be defeated by Cao Cao?"
Yuan Fang had known the result for a long time, but he was not disappointed. On the contrary, Yuan Shao's actions today strengthened his desire to leave the Yuan family as soon as possible.
Just when everyone was congratulating Yuan Shao and Yuan Shao, suddenly, someone said sternly: "My lord, I think my lord's choice is unfair!"
