Hu Feiyuan offered incense in front of General Yuan's spirit, remained silent for a while, turned around, seemed to notice Yuan Tang, and said, "This is... the Yuan family's young man."

Lu Changshi said: "It is General Yuan's eldest son."

Hu Feiyuan said kindly: "Suddenly heard that brother Zu Yao has gone, I really can't believe it, I forgot my feelings for a moment, I'm rude."

Yuan Tang thought that he was coming to demolish the mourning hall, but he didn't expect him to leave the family and the wind, and the gap between him and his brain was a bit big, so he could only say: "Thank you, General, for your concern."

Hu Feiyuan nodded, and turned to talk to Yuan De who was on the side, asking Yuan De about the situation when General Yuan passed away, how the battle in Jucheng was like, and encouraged him.

The situation was a bit wrong, Hu Feiyuan came to condolences to General Yuan, if he wanted to comfort Yuan Tang, he should also comfort Yuan Tang, this made Yuan Decai look like General Yuan's own son.

While Hu Feiyuan was talking about Zerou's defense, Yuan De kept his expression indifferent and said: "When I go back to the yamen hall, the general will explain the city defense and other official affairs to General Hu. He must know everything. It is inconvenient to discuss before the funeral.”

Hu Feiyuan seemed to have suddenly realized, nodded and said: "Yes, joining the army is a good idea." Then he asked Yuan Tang: "I don't know when my nephew will leave to go back to Jiyang. It will be difficult to walk in winter when it snows."

Originally, Yuan Tang also planned to pack up and move out of the General's Mansion before the new town came, but he replied truthfully: "Since General Hu has arrived in Zerou, we will of course start on the road as soon as possible, and we won't wait until winter comes."

Hu Feiyuan showed a quite satisfied smile, and said: "So, I will arrange a team of people to escort you, so as not to delay my nephew's trip by the mountain bandits who don't have eyes."

Yuan Tang said: "Don't bother the general, I have family soldiers to escort me, I don't need other people."

Hu Feiyuan said: "How can that be done? I think my nephew is not very old, and I have to take care of the coffin and arrange the troops. It takes a lot of effort. Brother Zu Yao just went, and my nephew Mo's body is broken. We should send a team of people from Zerou to escort him." You, there is also a helper along the way."

Yuan Tang said: "Fu Ling returned to his hometown to do his filial piety, my nephew dare not pretend to be someone else's hand. Besides, there is still Uncle De to help manage the road, so there is no need to waste the general's horsepower."

Hu Feiyuan was surprised: "Yuan Canjun wants to stay in Zerou to guard, how can he go on the road with his nephew?"

After fighting for a long time, it turned out that he was waiting here. Before Yuan Tang could speak, Yuan Dexian couldn't help it: "General Yuan passed away, so I will escort the general's coffin back home. General Hu has arrived in Zerou, you have no shortage of warriors Effectiveness, a certain should abdicate to let the virtuous."

Hu Feiyuan disagreed and said: "Ah De is too modest, how can my subordinates compare to you? You have been in Zerou for many years, and you are very familiar with the defense of the city and the habits of Beicheng people. The position of joining the army belongs to you. Although I I had some disagreements with Brother Zu Yao in the early years, but the heart of being loyal to the country and helping me Daxia Shanhe is the same. Ade doesn’t have to worry about the early years. In my heart, there is no one else who can join the army in Zerou Prefecture except you. You can stay in Zerou with peace of mind. If you are worried about Yuan Jiaxiaolang, I can send more people to escort him back to his hometown. Zu Yao has gone, and we will continue to do our best for the court so that we are not considered fallen. Brother Zu Yao's will."

If someone speaks clearly and righteously, it is hard to retaliate. If he refuses to agree, he will not only harbor old grievances in his heart, but also disregard the country.

When the general opens the mansion, he can recommend someone he thinks fit to take up the position in the mansion.Those who joined the army, Sima, etc. were all the general's cronies.Some generals have most or even all of their own soldiers.

Yuan De was once a member of General Yuan's private family. General Yuan valued him, granted his family good status, and promoted him to join the army.

Yuan De is loyal and has always regarded himself as the Yuan family, but the Yuan family cannot restrict his personal freedom.

Among General Yuan's personal soldiers, quite a few were exiles, and they were not counted as private soldiers.

If Hu Feiyuan can keep Yuan De behind by guarding Zerou, then he can also use the same reason to let the soldiers who are not private soldiers leave Yuan's house.

These warriors who have been on the battlefield are currently the most solid support of the Yuan family, especially Yuan De who can lead troops to fight.If they can't keep them, it will be difficult for the Yuan family to make a comeback.

Hu Feiyuan didn't intend to demolish General Yuan's mourning hall, but wanted to demolish Yuan's family.

Finding out Hu Feiyuan's intentions, Yuan Tang felt a little helpless in his heart, but the most important thing now was the thoughts of Yuan De and other soldiers, so he glanced at Yuan De.

Yuan De's eyes trembled, and he knelt before General Yuan's coffin, and said: "Yuan De will never forget the Yuan family's kindness in nurturing and the general's support and support, and will never betray the Yuan family. Mingjian."

Hu Feiyuan was taken aback by him, wanted to pull him up, and said, "What are you doing? Of course Brother Zu Yao knows your loyalty. From now on, you and I will guard Zerou well, so that you will be worthy of Brother Zu Yao's treatment of you at the beginning. cultivation."

Yuan De was stuck on the ground like a wooden stake, completely motionless.

Hu Feiyuan said: "Hey, why are you doing this?"

Yuan Tang said to Hu Feiyuan: "Uncle De has followed the late emperor for many years, and my nephew has always regarded him as an uncle in his heart. He is my Yuan family member. According to seniority, Uncle De and the late monarch are also cousins. Since ancient times, when relatives passed away, the family All the relatives need to observe the funeral. Uncle De must naturally abide by the etiquette and go back to Ji to celebrate the funeral."

Hu Feiyuan said: "My nephew doesn't understand this. Ade and Zu Yao have a deep relationship, which is moving. They should be best friends, but 'the matter of the Jinge is not avoided', and Beicheng often takes advantage of autumn and winter to start wars , Zerou is at a time when there is a shortage of people. Ade is mourning, and he must take national affairs into consideration. There are tens of thousands of soldiers on the border, who has no relatives and friends. "

Yuan Tang couldn't distinguish him, so he backed away from his sharpness and said, "General Hu is still discussing with Lu Changshi and other officials in the Yamen regarding the defense of the city.

But Hu Feiyuan became more and more arrogant, saying: "It was in the presence of brother Zu Yao that I must speak to my nephew, and teach my nephew right and wrong for brother Zu Yao."

Yuan Tang was annoyed, and Yuan De also frowned, obviously irritated by Hu Feiyuan's tone of teaching his son for his father.

If it is impossible to refute it right now, and Hu Feiyuan has the upper hand, I am afraid it will be difficult to find a reason to prevaricate, and General Yuan's personal soldiers outside will still watch.

Looking at Hu Feiyuan's round head and determined expression, Yuantang's heart was filled.Just as they were freezing, there was a commotion outside, and many people shouted loudly, it sounded like a fight broke out.

A Cong stepped through the courtyard gate, met the people in front of the hall, and said, "Little General, you..." A Cong was taken aback.Behind him, four or five soldiers chased up, none of them were guards of the General's Mansion. Ah Cong turned around and kicked one person down, and went around behind a big tree by the courtyard wall.

More than a dozen soldiers chased in, and a group of people surrounded Ah Cong. One of them, like a small captain, went to the front of the hall and said to Hu Feiyuan: "General, I was ordered to wait outside. I saw this man climbed over the backyard wall and made signs. Suspicious like a spy..."

Yuan Tang shouted loudly: "He is a distinguished guest in my mansion, don't talk nonsense!" Then he said to the soldiers in front of the hall: "Save people first!"

General Yuan's soldiers had long been dissatisfied with Hu Feiyuan, and upon receiving Yuan Tang's order, they immediately stepped forward to entangle with Hu Feiyuan's men.

Yuantang helped Ah Cong prepare chariots and horses to salute, and sent Ah Cong away from the main gate. For some reason, Ah Cong had to climb over the wall and leave.It seemed that Hu Feiyuan had sent people to surround the General's Mansion, and he came prepared, no wonder he dared to come in without bringing anyone.

Yuan Tang smiled and said: "General Hu, what do you mean by surrounding the general's mansion and arresting my guests?"

Hu Feiyuan didn't blush, and said: "This general will take over Zerou, and the internal guards of the military mansion will naturally have to be rearranged."

Yuan Tang was so angry.

Hu Feiyuan brushed off his sleeves calmly, and said: "My nephew is young, so I must discipline Brother Zu Yao. Why, only you have personal guards, why do you want to threaten me, old Hu? I’m talking to you politely to save your father’s face. Since you don’t want to drink a toast, we’ll serve you a fine wine.” Then he said to Lu Changshi: “Lao Changshi went outside and called the general’s personal guards in. , from now on, this general will sit in Zerou, and no one who has nothing to do with him will be allowed to enter the general's mansion."

No matter how hard Yuantang endured, he was just a stick, and said to the soldiers: "Everyone listen, Ah Cong is a distinguished guest of my Yuan family. Whoever dares to touch him will want to touch my Yuan family. What should I do with those who offend my Yuan family? explain."

All the soldiers were armed with weapons, and they didn't use force because they were in front of the general's spirit. Hearing Yuan Tang's words, those with knives drew their knives and some of them drew their swords.

Hu Feiyuan didn't expect that Xiaolang of the Yuan family looked young and inexperienced, but he was a savage inside, and he was not afraid of seeing blood in front of his father's spirit.His people are all outside the mansion, after all, there are still more soldiers of the Yuan family in the mansion, so they can't take advantage of it for a while.

Hu Feiyuan said to Lu Changshi: "Hurry up and call someone!"

Half of the general's mansion is an office hall. Lu Changshi didn't want to see the two groups of people fighting each other in the mansion, so he persuaded him: "General, please calm down and speak slowly. General Yuan's coffin is still in the mansion. Make a fuss, for fear that the ancestors will be disturbed."

Hu Feiyuan didn't care, tearing away the superficial layer of politeness, all the warrior's habits were exposed, and said: "You just go and call, do you want this general to go in person?" He squinted his eyes and looked at Lu Changshi, his tone a little dangerous.

Lu Changshi choked on him, and his expression turned pale immediately.

Ah Cong climbed up the tree trunk, then jumped up the rockery, preparing to cross the courtyard wall from the rockery.

Lu Changshi looked at A Cong, and suddenly stopped, ignoring Hu Feiyuan's orders.

Hu Feiyuan roared: "What are you all doing blankly, it doesn't matter who he is, shoot and kill him, go outside and call everyone in, I don't believe it anymore!"

Hearing Hu Feiyuan say to call for reinforcements, all the soldiers guarded the door tightly.

Hu Feiyuan's men want to arrest A Cong and avoid the Yuan family's soldiers at the same time.

Yuan Tang suddenly pulled Hu Feiyuan to kneel in front of General Yuan's spirit. He couldn't pull him alone, so he called Yuan De. Yuan De held Hu Feiyuan from behind and swept towards Hu Feiyuan's knee at the same time.

Hu Feiyuan didn't guard against their attack, and was attacked by Yuan De from behind again, and fell to his knees with a "plop".

"You dare!" Hu Feiyuan roared angrily.

Yuan Tang pointed to General Yuan's spirit tablet and said, "You swear, don't embarrass the Yuan family, and let Uncle De, the Yuan family's cronies and everyone in the Yuan family leave the city safely."

At this time, the deterrent effect of ghosts and gods in people's hearts is not small, Yuantang just wanted to kill Hu Feiyuan's prestige on the spot, and wanted that sentence.

Hu Feiyuan exerted strength, Yuan De pressed down together, and both of them blushed.

Yuan Tang pulled out Yuan De's saber, and a "chuckle" resounded throughout the courtyard.

Ah Cong was dragged off the wall, ran behind the rockery, turned around and ran to the front of the hall, Lu Changshi went outside and shouted: "Wait!

Yuan Tang pointed his sword at Hu Feiyuan's chest, his hands were fighting, but his voice was firm: "You swear!"

Both Hu Feiyuan and Yuan De yelled, no one would let the other go, Yuan Tang pushed the point of the knife forward slightly.

Lu Changshi rushed to the yard and said, "Everyone stop, you can't do it!"

A Cong bypassed Lang Zhu, and was blocked by two long knives in front of him. He dodged one of them sideways, and the other was separated by the Yuan family's personal guards.

Hu Feiyuan stared at Yuan Tang fiercely, squeezed out a few words between his teeth: "I, swear, swear!"

Yuan Tang shouted loudly: "Everyone heard it. General Hu swears that he will stop embarrassing the Yuan family and let everyone leave the city safely."

Hu Feiyuan roared and overturned Yuan De.

Yuan Tang only felt a pain in his wrist, and the knife was taken away.Hu Feiyuan clasped Yuantang's shoulder again, and Yuantang screamed in pain.

Yuan De got up and shouted: "Stop hurting my little general!"

Ah Congzheng went around to the hall, turned his feet to the right, squeezed in front of Hu Feiyuan, and hit Hu Feiyuan's jaw with his elbow.

Yuan Tang's shoulders loosened, his chest churned, his mouth was fishy and sweet, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.Yuan Tang was beaten up by Hu Sihan's soldiers and suffered some internal injuries. The doctor also said that he needed to be recuperated, but he had never had a chance to take good care of him. In such a hurry, he actually caused internal injuries and vomited blood.

Hu Feiyuan was attacked for the second time and was furious

Ah Cong's front was badly smeared with blood, startled, he reached out to help the limp Yuantang, and asked eagerly, "Where is the injury?"

Yuan Tang could still say a few words: "I'm fine..." Then he closed his eyes and stretched his legs.Before he fell down, he seemed to hear Lu Changshi's voice shouting: "General Hu, you can't do anything, step back quickly, he is..."
