Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

"However, Li Yi just did this, and he still needs as much food as he has. This makes Brother Wei feel very uneasy and more worried. After Li Yi is rejected for buying food, he will use this as an excuse to forcefully marry Zhen'er. Then in the future, I will use Zhen'er as a rocker to plot against my entire Mi family!"

Mi Fang was stunned when she heard this, and blurted out: "The entire Mi family? How dare he, Li Yi'an, do this?"

Mi Zhu snorted softly, and said, "Why don't you dare? Li Yi even dared to kill Dong Zhuo, so why would he care about me waiting for a merchant's family?"

"Besides, it's not difficult for Li Yi to conspire with my Mi family. As long as he finds the right time, kills you and me secretly, and then enters the Mi family as the son-in-law of the Mi family. Who dares to oppose Li Yi, and the people who belong to the family Death is like a lamp going out, even if the Xuzhou government sympathizes with my Mi family's misfortune, who will go against Li Yi for the sake of the dead?"

Listening to her brother's narration, Mi Fang was filled with panic and felt her back go cold, she couldn't help but shouted: "Then Dianwei will arrive in Tancheng soon, what should I do?"

Seeing Mi Fang's appearance, Mi Zhu couldn't get angry again, and reprimanded him: "Dear man, be careful and calm, I don't ask you for a big mountain to collapse in front of you and don't change your face, but at least don't get confused when things happen. What's here is just classics." Wei, you're already in such a panic before Li Yi arrives in person, if something really happens in the future, how can you rest assured Brother Wei?"

Mi Fang was so ashamed by the training, she bowed deeply and said in a low voice: "It's brother, I know I'm wrong."

Mi Zhu's face was expressionless, and his heart was full of despair. He felt that although there was nothing wrong with this younger brother, his achievements in this life were probably very limited.

Thinking of this, Mi Zhu took another look at his sister. Although she was a woman, this girl was more stable than his second brother.

After thinking wildly for a while, Mi Zhu shook his head and continued: "This matter is indeed troublesome, but it is not unsolvable. After I got the news, I have already made some arrangements."

Mi Fang immediately raised her head and looked at Mi Zhu eagerly. He wanted to know what his brother was going to do, otherwise his heart would be too confused.

Seeing that Mi Fang was so restless, and Mi Zhu didn't get angry anymore, he became a little numb, and slowly explained to Mi Fang: "Li Yi asked Dian Wei to come, nothing more than to show his force, so that I dare not fight against him, and I If the Mi family wants to calm things down, they should not confront them head-on, otherwise Li Yi will definitely not give up in order to save face, and at the same time, my Mi family must not be too weak, otherwise Li Yi will be greedy and push every inch!"

Mi Zhu slowed down, feeling that Mi Fang probably wanted to understand this truth, and continued: "A few days ago, I borrowed three thousand deputy soldiers from the envoy, and asked the servants at home to replace them. Complete the etiquette, agree to Li Yi's purchase of grain, and send another two thousand stones of grain and grass, and then let Dianwei see the soldiers in my mansion. This will not only save Li Yi's face, but also let him understand that once Li Yi moves Using extreme means to push my Mi family into a hurry, even if my Mi family can't fight him to the death, at least it can hurt him!"

"In this way, as long as Li Yi grows jealous and makes him understand that even if my Mi family is touched, the final income will be almost the same as the consumption. In this way, my Mi family will be safe for a while."

After hearing this, Mi Fang breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately asked, "Why did brother say it was safe for a while?"

Mi Zhu took a deep look at Mi Fang, who lowered his head in shame, and then Mi Zhu said: "In the future, if Li Yi goes one step further and guards the side for the emperor, then alas, I hope that before that, my Mi family can be with him." Make it really good."

Mi Fang didn't know that her elder brother was disappointed in his heart, but most of his hanging heart had already been let go. From Mi Fang's point of view, it was extremely difficult to become a shepherd of a state. It could take more than ten years, and Li Yi's life would be slower None of that chance.

Therefore, worrying about possible events more than ten years later, in Mi Fang's view, is almost like worrying about the sky, and it is completely unnecessary.

Thinking of this, the tense expression on Mi Fang's face gradually relaxed, making Mi Zhu, who had been paying attention to him, almost raised his hand again.

At this time, Mi Zhen suddenly asked in a low voice: "Brother, how should I respond to the little sister's matter?"

Mi Zhen's questioning saved Mi Fang from the risk of being beaten, and Mi Fang could be regarded as "repaying her kindness", so she immediately stated: "Of course I can't agree to Li Yi."

Mi Zhen bowed to Mi Fang to express her thanks, and then looked at Mi Zhu. She knew that her elder brother would also refuse, but the question was how to refuse.

Mi Zhu pondered for a moment, and said, "The best way is to declare that you have committed to someone else, and that the reputation of the other party's family cannot be weaker than Li Yi, so that Li Yi can be used as a weapon."

Mi Fang immediately went through the officials in Xuzhou who were comparable to Li Yipin in her mind, and then discovered a fact that she had to admit.

Although everyone has similar official positions, in terms of reputation, there is really no official in Xuzhou who can compare with Li Yi, or can make Li Yi fearful in terms of power.

Moreover, those officials in Xuzhou who are comparable to Li Yi can basically be Mi Zhen's father in terms of age and seniority.

After thinking for a long time, Mi Fang whispered: "It seems that only Tao Shijun's family status is acceptable."

Mi Zhu shook his head slightly, and said: "Tao Shijun is the master of one state. If Zhen'er promises to be the son of Tao Shijun's family, she can only be a concubine. This young master, although his conduct is fine, but at most he is only a mediocre person, so it will be difficult for him to achieve anything in the future, even though my Mi family is a merchant, it is really wronged for Zhen'er to be a mediocre concubine."

Mi Fang also nodded slightly, everyone was in Tancheng together, Mi Fang had played with Tao Qian's sons, to be honest, Mi Fang was in awe of their identities, but for their talents, Mi Fang felt that they were not as good as herself, otherwise, Mi Fang It wouldn't have taken him so long to name the sons of Tao Qian's family, and also pointed out their identities, which shows that they don't value them themselves.

Mi Fang had no choice but to ask again: "Then what should I do?"

Mi Zhu frowned, and was about to answer when he heard someone knock on the door, and then the steward of the mansion hurried in, without waiting for Mi Zhu to ask a question, he said directly: "Patriarch, the emissary of Marquis Xiang, Dian Wei, has entered the city! "

The three of them were stunned when they heard the words, even Mi Zhu was no exception. According to the news he knew, Dian Wei should arrive tomorrow, why is it a day faster?

But at this time, he couldn't allow him to think about it, and Mi Zhu stood up in just a moment, and said: "Zhen'er, you should stay in the backyard, don't go out easily."

"Yes, brother."

"Second brother, I'm going out to meet Dianwei right now. No matter what, the etiquette must not be bad. At the same time, I will try my best to delay some time. You can use this opportunity to call the servants to put on the armor with Wang steward, and let them practice in the courtyard." !"

"Yes, brother, I'll do it now!"

Mi Fang agreed without hesitation.

Mi Zhu nodded, and was about to go out, but after a few steps, he suddenly thought of something, and turned around and told him: "Remember, I just let them practice, not to show danger to Dianwei. Before I give orders, don't go out." Never show hostility, remember! Remember!"

"Yes, brother, remember!"

Seeing Mi Fang's affirmation of Mi Fang's promise, Mi Zhu was relieved a little. Although Mi Fang may have made a mistake in presiding over the overall situation, after explaining everything to him, it would be no problem for him to follow the scriptures.

Immediately, Mi Zhu ordered a few guards with high martial arts skills, got on his horse and left the mansion. He wanted to do all the etiquette, and if he really got unhappy with Li Yi in the future, he could also use this to win some Sympathy, while not necessarily useful, is better than nothing.

Because of the Chinese New Year, the crowds on the road were quite crowded. Although Mi Zhu and the others rode horses, they were not fast. After walking for about half an hour, they were still a long way from the city gate.

The guard was afraid that Mi Zhu was in a hurry, so he planned to get off his horse and open the way, but Mi Zhu stopped the guard with a wave of his hand, looked around, and said to himself: "No, no, Dian Wei entered the city before I left, even if the crowd is crowded, You should have traveled more than half of the distance, so you should meet me, why is there no one there?"

Thinking of this, Mi Zhu asked the guards to go to the roadside merchants to ask, and found that no one suspected of Dian Wei passed by, so he continued to move forward, and after almost a stick of incense, a guard who was arranged to explore the road ahead ran away When he came back, he said to Mi Zhu, "Patriarch, I have seen the envoy of Marquis Xiang, not far ahead."

"Oh, then quickly lead the way!"

Mi Zhu tidied up his clothes, and was about to dismount and walk, but seeing the guard standing still with a troubled expression on his face, Mi Zhu couldn't help asking: "Why, is there something else?"

The guard said hesitantly: "The envoys of the Marquis of Xiang are indeed here, but they didn't go far after entering the city. For some reason, they clashed with passers-by and started fighting."

Chapter 309 Dian Wei is Arrogant Again

"You actually did it?"

Mi Zhu's head was a little dazed for a moment.

Although his identity is an unappreciated businessman, in fact, Mi Zhu has traveled all over the world in business over the years, and has seen many places, many people, and many things. In terms of rich experience, there are really few people who have more experience than him.

But even so, Mi Zhu had never heard of any envoy who arrived at the destination and instead of meeting the visitor, ran to the street to fight with them.

This made Mi Zhu think a lot, and secretly guessed whether Dian Wei had simply encountered an accident, or whether he had been instructed by Li Yi to deliberately belittle the Mi family.

Thinking of this, Mi Zhu didn't rush to find Dian Wei, but asked the guards: "How did the fight start and who did it with, do you know?"

The guard said with some shame: "After the villain learned about the matter, he hurried back to report to the Patriarch, so the details are not very clear."

Mi Zhu didn't blame the guards either. After thinking for a while, he ordered: "Lead the way, no matter what his reason is, my Mi family should meet him."

"Here!"

Following the guard's response, Mi Zhu and his party rushed towards the direction where Dian Wei was fighting, and after a while, the corner of Mi Zhu's mouth twitched. There was no other reason. There were already many people on the road during the Chinese New Year, and there were even more people here. Crowded, there are human heads everywhere, if not for the vague shouts ahead, and occasional applause, Mi Zhu would have thought that Zhou Mu was grazing here.

The Mi family had a good reputation, and the people who watched the excitement saw Mi Zhu coming, and offered to give way to him. After Mi Zhu thanked him again and again, he squeezed into the crowd, and through the words of the surrounding people, he knew the general idea of ​​the matter.
