There is a ruined temple in the deserted suburbs of Yecheng.
The swaying torch reflected the calm and calm young face.
There were footsteps outside the temple. Yuan Fang frowned and subconsciously tightened the sword on his waist.
A moment later, Yuan Gui, a close servant, entered the ruined temple with seven or eight masked henchmen carrying a sack.
Yuan Fang's hand holding the sword was released.
Several people threw the sack on the ground, and there was a "wuwu" sound inside, and the contents inside were tossing and twisting.
"Is everything going well?" Yuan Fang asked.
Yuan Gui smiled and said: "The younger one followed him all the way out of the house, followed him into an alley, gave him a sap and put it in his pocket without anyone noticing."
"Nice job." Yuan Fang nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand to indicate.
Yuan Gui arranged for his men to stand guard outside. He pulled out the decree and cut the sack open.
A middle-aged man who was tied up and his mouth was gagged appeared in front of him.
Yuan Gui pulled out the cloth that blocked his mouth, and the man shouted wildly: "You are so brave. I am the housekeeper of the Cavalry General's house. You dare to tie me up. You are really a coward¡ª"
Before he even uttered the word "Ìì", Yuan Fang kicked him in the face.
The man took a mouthful of mud and was shocked and angry. He was about to curse again. When he raised his head and saw Yuan Fang, he was shocked.
"SecondSecond Young Master! Why is it you?"
Looking down at him with sharp eyes, Yuan Fang said coldly: "Steward Zhao, you don't have your master to protect you here. I advise you to restrain your arrogance and don't ask for trouble."
The man in front of me is the housekeeper of Yuan Mansion.
There are two chief managers in the Yuan Mansion, one is Butler Zhao and the other is Butler Zhou.
Butler Zhao is a close confidant of brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi, and Butler Zhou is a close confidant of Yuan Shao's second wife Liu Shi and Yuan Shang.
If the Zhen family really wants to send money to Yuan Xi, in order to avoid suspicion, Yuan Xi will definitely ask Butler Zhao to receive it outside the city and then transport it to his other courtyard.
Yuan Fang arrested this person named Zhao just to interrogate the truth of this matter.
By the way, revenge.
"Second Young Master, what do you mean? Why did you kidnap the old slave and come here?"
Butler Zhao has seen the world after all. After the initial shock, he quickly calmed down and glared at Yuan Fang and asked.
"Why?"
Yuan Fang's eyes were sharp and murderous, "When we were in the hall that day, you were instructed by Yuan Xi to deliberately not set up a seat for me and embarrassed me in front of everyone. How dare you ask me why."
Butler Zhao was stunned for a moment, then he finally understood Yuan Fang's intention. Instead of being afraid, he became arrogant again.
He sneered and said disapprovingly: "So that's what happened. The old slave is here to apologize to you, the second master. The second master lets the old slave go. This matter will be settled, and the old slave won't care about you anymore."
The person surnamed Zhao had an arrogant tone, and he actually dared to say to Yuan Fang, "I don't care about you."
Yuan Fang frowned and shouted: "Yuan Gui, give me this arrogant dog slave and give him twenty sticks."
Yuan Gui got the order, kicked Butler Zhao over, picked up the stick and started to fight.
Butler Zhao was shocked. He never expected that the always cowardly Second Young Master would become so "daring". Not only did he dare to kidnap him secretly, but he even dared him to lynch him.
"Yuan Fang, you are so brave. I'm warning you, if you really dare to touch me, believe it or not, I will make you miserable and carry you around!"
Butler Zhao was still arrogant and warned Yuan Fang very arrogantly. At this time, he still didn't believe that Yuan Fang really dared to touch him.
"You dare to be so arrogant as a slave who relies on human power. If Yuan Gui doesn't take action, give him thirty sticks." Yuan Fang was furious and added ten more sticks.
Yuan Gui no longer hesitated and hit Butler Zhao on the butt with the big stick.
Snapped! Snapped! Snapped!
After a few blows with the stick, Butler Zhao was beaten to the point of bone marrow pain. He howled: "Yuan Fang, I am a second-generation slave of the Yuan family. If you dare to hit me, let alone the eldest and third young masters, even Mr. Yuan will not do it." Spare you, ah~~"
But Yuan Fang stood with his hands behind his back, enjoying the show of beating the dog with sticks to see how long he could last.
In the blink of an eye, after being beaten with more than a dozen sticks, the flesh on Butler Zhao¡¯s buttocks was already rotten and his pants were stained red. He was so painful that he even spat.
"Second Young Master, please spare your life. If you have anything to say, please speak it out. This old slave is wrong. Second Young Master, please spare your life."
Butler Zhao¡¯s arrogance finally couldn¡¯t bear the physical pain. The pain was so unbearable that he begged for mercy.
Yuan Fang was indifferent. If the man surnamed Zhao wasn't still valuable, he would have beaten him to death on the spot.
Thirty sticks are finally over.
Butler Zhao was beaten until his skin and flesh were bruised, and he was crying loudly. Compared with his previous arrogance, he looked completely different.
"My surname is Zhao, I want to ask you a few questions now. If you tell me honestly, I will consider sparing your life, sir. If you dare to be dishonest, today next year will be your memorial day."
Yuan Fang's voice was stern, his expression was solemn, and his eyes were flashing with murderous intent.
"Second Young Master, if you have anything to say, just ask, I will tell you honestly." Butler Zhao was so frightened that he hurriedly kowtowed in agreement.
Yuan Fang then calmed down his murderous intent and asked, "My lord, I would like to ask you whether the Zhen family wants to secretly send Yuan Xi one million yuan and send it to Yecheng tomorrow."
Butler Zhao was startled and looked at Yuan Fang in horror. He was obviously told by Yuan Fang, but he was shocked that such secrets could be known to Yuan Fang.
"Thisis indeedthis is indeed the case." Butler Zhao did not dare to conceal it, so he had to confess truthfully.
Sure enough.
Yuan Fang can now be convinced that what the secret letter said is true, and there are indeed people in the Zhen family secretly helping him.
"Who is the one?"
Yuan Fang's thoughts were racing, and suddenly, the servant who dressed as a man that day appeared in his mind.
That day, she was pushed rudely by Yuan Xi. If she had not taken action in time, she would have fallen down the steps.
Could it be that she hated Yuan Xi and was grateful to him, so she secretly tipped him off?
Yuan Fang couldn¡¯t be convinced after much thought, but what he could be sure of was that the Zhen family¡¯s sponsorship of Yuan Xi was absolutely true.
"Huh, Yuan Xi, you asked Guo Tu to deduct my salary, but secretly collected benefits from the Zhen family, so I took this ill-gotten gain from you"
There was a hint of coldness at the corner of Yuan Fang's mouth, and he had a plan in mind.
Oops!
The long sword was unsheathed, and the bright blade was placed on Butler Zhao's neck.
"My surname is Zhao, I want you to cooperate in doing something. If you dare not obey, I will take your head now."
Yuan Fang¡¯s eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Butler Zhao was so frightened that he didn't dare to disobey, but the slave girl agreed immediately.
¡¡
The next day, Yecheng Beijiao Avenue.
The sky is about to turn bright, and no pedestrians have passed through the official road yet.
Yuan Fang, Yuan Gui and other seven or eight confidants stood on the official road and waited quietly.
Butler Zhao's face was pale, and he sat on his horse tremblingly, looking like he was living a hard life.
Not long after, a group of chariots and horses appeared at the end of the official road. More than twenty sword-wielding men escorted several horses and chariots, slowly coming this way.
The young man at the head, wearing bright clothes and an angry horse, is none other than Zhen Yao, the eldest son of the Zhen family.
"Butler Zhao is indeed punctual." From far away, Zhen Yao recognized Butler Zhao and greeted him with a smile.
Yuan Fang, who was hiding behind Butler Zhao, said in a deep voice: "Zhao, if you act honestly and honestly, if there is any flaw, I will kill you immediately."
The horse was being controlled, his hands were tied, and there was a sword on his back. In order to save his life, Butler Zhao dared to disobey.
He took a deep breath, forced a smile, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Zhen is so generous and has given so much military pay. My young master has no time to be grateful, so how dare he not be punctual."
It was still dark at this time, and Yuan Fang and the others had all disguised themselves as servants of the Yuan Mansion. Naturally, Zhen Yao, an outsider, could not see the flaws.
He confidently and boldly handed over the carriages filled with copper coins to them.
Butler Zhao thanked Yuan Xi repeatedly, and his acting was very similar.
Zhen Yao smiled and said: "Third Young Master, you are too polite. My father did this because he wanted to help Third Young Master conquer Bingzhou as soon as possible and defeat that bastard Yuan Fang. Only then could Father betroth my sister, Mi, to Third Young Master. In fact, we are already Family, no need to be polite.¡±
Mi Mei?
Yuan Fang was shocked and thought to himself: "Could it be that the lady of the Zhen family is called Zhen Mi, and is she the Luo Shen in history?"
In fact, if he had not been focusing on how to escape from the Yuan family, he would have thought that the Miss Zhen family was the famous Luo Shen Zhen Mi.
If it hadn¡¯t been for his appearance, according to the original history, Zhen Mi would have successfully married Yuan Xi and become the daughter-in-law of the Yuan family. Later, when the Yuan family was destroyed, Zhen Mi would have been forcibly married by Cao Pi.
Now that Zhen Yao reminded him, Yuan Fang suddenly thought that heThe woman Yuan Xi was fighting for was actually Zhen Mi.
"Hmph, why should a man be without a wife? Everything I have done is for a mere woman. However, Yuan Xi, a loser, can't even protect his own woman. Let a strange woman like Zhen Mi marry this It¡¯s really a waste to grow things, but I did a good thing along the way.¡±
Over there, Zhen Yao praised Yuan Xi again, mocked Yuan Fang with utmost contempt, and then turned around and left, leading a group of family soldiers away.
Looking at the carriage containing millions of dollars, and then looking at Zhen Yao who was gradually going away, thinking that he had completed the task and treating himself with utmost contempt, Yuan Fang felt as happy as playing a monkey in his heart.
"I will accept this million money, Yuan Xi Zhenyi, I really want to see what your expressions will be like when you learn that this million money is missing, haha¡ª¡ª"
With a wild laugh, Yuan Fang whipped his horse and whip, and returned with millions of dollars.
