Chapter 3: Keep a low profile, filial piety

After half a stick of incense, the maids and servants who were guarding the bedroom showed surprise, just because the sound of suppressing inside seemed to have not ended yet.

"Young master, I'm so strong!"

"It seems that it wasn't that strong before"

"What are you doing? Do you want to be killed by a stick?" At this time, Butler Liu suddenly walked over angrily, and shouted in a low voice with cold eyes.

Everyone was immediately startled and knelt on the ground in fear.

"You can't discuss the matter between the young master and the wife. Leave two of them and get out of here." Butler Liu waved his hand violently.

"No!" After the two close servants Zhen Mi stayed, the others hurriedly left with their heads down.

Butler Liu looked at the closed door and smiled happily. The young master must have recovered from his illness when he could get through the room. It seems that he needs to prepare some supplements in the kitchen.

Not long after, the sound in the bedroom finally disappeared, and clothes were thrown all over the floor. Behind the red bed curtain, Yuan Xi hugged the panting Zhen Mi, with a refreshing and full of complacent attitude.

"Husband, what are you?" Zhen Mi took a break for a while and her blushing face was a little surprised, but she was so shy that she didn't know what to say.

"Haha!!" Seeing this expression, Yuan Xi burst into laughter proudly. What else is more worthy of pride for men than this? In fact, he was also very strange in his heart. He was not so powerful in his previous life. Could it be that he had changed through time?

Hearing this proud laughter, Zhen Mi shyly bit Yuan Xi's shoulder.

"Husband, you are so annoying. How can I meet people in the future? How can I manage the backyard?"

"It's okay, you are my wife, it's natural to have sex. Whoever wants to say anything, drag it out and beat it to death," Yuan Xi said loudly.

Zhen Mi felt the arrogance and domineeringness in this tone, and couldn't help but feel a strong sense of security in her heart. She was also surprised and said, "Husband, you seem to have changed."

"What's wrong with me?" Yuan Xi said in confusion.

"It seems to be more domineering and more arrogant," Zhen Mi said softly.

"Is that so? Do you like it?" Yuan Xi smiled. It would be different if he changed someone.

"I like this, such a husband is what Mi'er needs." Zhen Mi showed a hint of worry on her face.

After Yuan Xi saw this, his face suddenly became narrow, "Mi'er, has something happened?"

After hesitating for a while, Zhen Mi said, "Husband, have you forgotten that a fortune teller once said that I was the queen's life. My father originally wanted to marry me, but was stopped by his mother. After a quarrel, he betrothed me directly to you."

"What!" Yuan Xi's pupils shrank and his mind quickly turned. Yuan Shao could understand why he gave it to him, why not give it to the two brothers who were better than him. He suddenly remembered that in ancient times, many emperors directly married their wives. Could it be that Yuan Shao had this idea, and the other two sons were excellent and were likely to inherit his great cause in the future. He couldn't bear it, so he rewarded himself, the incompetent son. Once the time came, he would find a way to seize it.

Thinking of this, Yuan Xi's eyes suddenly shone with cold light. He was not an ancient person. Women could exchange them at will like clothes. Whoever dared to touch his woman would definitely kill him.

"Husband, are you okay?" Zhen Mi shouted in a low voice when she looked at Yuan Xi who was suddenly chilling.

Yuan Xi came back to his senses and smiled and said, "My Mi'er is so charming and unparalleled. It is normal for some people to have ideas, but if anyone dares to stretch out his claws, no matter who it is, I will chop it and feed it to the dog."

Hearing this, Zhen Mi burst into tears and hugged Yuan Xi's arm tightly, not willing to let go for a moment.

"Mi'er, what's going on outside now? How is Gongsun Zan?" Yuan Xi knew that Gongsun Zan must have been destroyed, but he didn't know how far he was.

"Husband, after several wars, Gongsun Zan has lost his troops and lost his generals and failed to form an army. The day of destruction is not far away. Half a month ago, my father had led a large army and sent troops to Yijing, preparing to completely eliminate Gongsun Zan, collect and pay the land of Youzhou, and unify Hebei." Zhen Mi said softly. This was originally a happy thing, but not only did she not have any excitement on her face, but she was a little anxious, because once Hebei was unified, the father who looked charitable would probably think of other things.

Yuan Xi nodded, looked at Zhen Mi's expression and smiled: "The speed is very fast. It seems that Gongsun Zan will definitely lose. I heard that my father planned to hand over all four continents to our sons for management. I wonder if it is true?"

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, after Yuan Shao unified Hebei, he immediately handed over the four continents to his sons and took charge of the general's mansion in Yecheng, which laid the groundwork for the subsequent family.

"Yes, I heard from my mother that my father does have this plan, but husband, you should know that my father and mother prefer the third brother, and the ministers of the general's office support the eldest brother. Even if you are separated, it will probably not be a good place. Maybe it will be a bitter and cold place in Youzhou, and you will face barbarian invasion at any time," Zhen Mi said worriedly.

"Haha, that's great." Yuan Xi not only was not anxious, but was extremely happy. In Yecheng and Jizhou, he would never have great development. Only by going out can he have a broad sky.

"Husband, Youzhou is vast and sparsely populated, and it is not as good as the other three continents. I think you should show off in front of your father and try to get a better score." Zhen Mi thought Yuan Xi had forgotten the situation in the four continents.

Yuan Xi shook his head and said, "Mi'er, you are wrong. Not only can I not perform well, but I want to perform more mediocrely."

"Why?" Zhen Mi said anxiously. Whenever Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan had the opportunity, they would come to Yuan Shao to seek credit. Yuan Xi was no longer valued, and if this continued, they would have no status.

"Why! Because my father is Yuan Shao! Haha" Yuan Xi burst into laughter.

"What does it mean?" Zhen Mi became even more confused.

Yuan Xi immediately sneered: "Father, I know better than anyone else. He prefers his third brother and wants him to be the heir. However, because of the etiquette and ancient system, he cannot give up his elder brother. The ministers in the palace all took sides with him under his acquiescence. Even if I perform well, no matter how much credit I make, they will be taken away one by one, which will even make Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan feel threatening. They plot against me step by step. My father did not pay attention to me, and his ears were pitiful. A word may change his view of me and even completely suppress me."

Zhen Mi's face was shocked. Although she has been well-read in poetry and books since she was a child, she has been good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she has been staying at home since she was a child and living a pampered life. Although she has extraordinary knowledge, she has too little experience and does not have enough understanding of the worldly affairs.

"What should I do then, husband?" Zhen Mi said anxiously. She didn't like Yuan Xi before, but after the two got married, they became husband and wife, and Yuan Xi was so kind to her, so she naturally thought about Yuan Xi.

Yuan Xi comforted: "Don't worry, Mi'er, it's actually very simple. Just keep a low profile by keeping your virtuous and filial piety and miserable."

"Hide your strength and keep your low profile, be filial and sell your misery." Zhen Mi frowned and said a few times, and said in confusion: "Hide your strength and keep your low profile, Mi'er understands, but what does filial and sell your misery mean?"

"Cry!!" Yuan Xi said softly.

"Cry?" Zhen Mi said in surprise.

"Yes, crying is a great question. If you do the first four words, you can definitely be divided by my legitimate son, but Mi'er, you may not be. Some people are staring at you, so you will definitely not be allowed to follow me." Yuan Xi said seriously.

"Ah!" Zhen Mi became scared in an instant. Without Yuan Xi's protection, although she was from the Zhen family, she now belonged to the Yuan family. Military power is the king in troubled times, and nothing else is meaningless.

"So you want to cry. Didn't you say that my mother tried her best to stop her and didn't let you marry my father? It seems that my mother's valor is quite powerful, so whether she can leave is on her mother. As long as she is soft-hearted, she can take you out with my usual mediocrity and filial piety." Yuan Xi said seriously.

Zhen Huan nodded heavily, "I have an emerald Guanyin, which is a rare treasure. I will go to the General's Mansion tomorrow and offer it to my mother."

"Okay, but remember, don't say how capable I am, because my mother also prefers my third brother. Do you understand?" Yuan Xi reminded.

"I understand, I just say how happy I am." Zhen Mi hugged Yuan Xi's arm shyly, feeling so safe for the first time.

When Yuan Xi saw this scene, he smiled, and there seemed to be another pillar below. Looking at Zhen Mi who was biting her lip and looking down at her, she turned over and was about to press on her.

Zhen Mi suddenly said in surprise, pointed to Yuan Xi's chest and said, "Husband, what is this?"
