"Do you think I'm a three-year-old child and will believe your nonsense?"

Yuan Tan refused to believe Xiahou An's remarks.

"Brother Xiansi, the conscience of heaven and earth!"

Seeing that Yuan Tan did not believe it, Xiahou An increased his voice and looked like he was wronged. He said in detail: "At first, I really wanted to use the trick of 'surrounding Wei to save Zhao' to deceive you. After all, you surrounded my Duchang City, right? But who would have thought that I could easily break the county city. You also know that the new county magistrate Wang Xiu had a grudge with me in the past and framed me to kill the county magistrate Kong. Now that he fell into my hands, he naturally wanted to ask for life, so he said that there was a way to defeat Yuan's army..."

"impossible!"

When he learned that it was Wang Xiu's idea, Yuan Tan scolded him as if he was stepped on and hurt his feet: "Wang Xiu is my former official of the Yuan family. He will never betray the Lord and ask for honor. Don't be here to sow discord!"

Seeing that Yuan Tan did not believe it, Xiahou An was not in a hurry to argue, and then said, "Brother Xiansi might as well think about it. You and I have no hatred in the past. What should I lie to you? If it weren't for Wang Xiu's plan, I could come up with this wonderful plan based on my IQ alone?"

Xiahou An openly criticized and secretly praised him, and Yuan Tan was skeptical about this.

Xiahou An said again, Wang Xiu betrayed his old master Kong Rong in order to be able to cling to the Yuan family, so why wouldn't he betray you for survival? What can't be done by such a person?

These words were like a steel needle piercing into Yuan Tan's heart, and his eyes became sharp at this moment.

"It's him?"

Yuan Tan stared at the boy in front of him, trying to use this to judge the authenticity of the words.

Compared with defeat, betrayal is even more hateful.

Seeing Yuan Tan taking the bait, Xiahou An was secretly happy. The purpose of this was to turn the blame on Wang Xiu and then implement the next plan.

So he nodded seriously.

Damn it!

Yuan Tan's expression, who could not see the clues on Xiahou An's face, had a moment of cruelty, but then he thought, if what Xiahou An said was true and had no intention of getting evil to him, would it mean that he could leave alive?

Thinking of this, Yuan Tan felt a sense of survival in his heart, and immediately looked for a statement of escape, saying inadvertently: "There is a cause of injustice and a master of debt. Since Wang Xiu betrayed me, then you will let me go. Let's write it off in the past grudges."

Xiahou An didn't know Yuan Tan's thoughts. After thinking for a while, he shook his head slightly, and I'm afraid this wouldn't work.

Seeing this, Yuan Tan immediately changed his face and snorted coldly as if he was sarcastic, and he felt like he had seen through the evil plan.

Xiahou An took his expression into his eyes and said with a smile: "Brother Yuan has a misunderstanding. I cannot let you go now. It is not intentional harm, but the siege of Duchang is still there. When the siege of Duchang is lifted, I will definitely apologize in public and personally send Brother Yuan out of the city."

The tone of the boy in front of him was full of sincerity, and Yuan Tan also hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether he should believe it or not.

In order to dispel Yuan Tan's doubts, Xiahou An continued: "As for the capture, I will also let my subordinates ban their words and not mention them at all. Brother Yuan can rest assured."

This sentence hit Yuan Tan's heart. He was not afraid of death, but was afraid that others would know that he had been captured and ruined his reputation.

This is a shame.

Yuan Tan's expression relaxed, and Xiahou An knew that he had believed in him, so he ordered his soldiers to bring hot rice and then delivered it to Yuan Tan himself.

Xiahou An put up the steps in a low posture, and Yuan Tan took advantage of the situation and started eating with a big mouthful.

Taking advantage of this gap, Xiahou An did not forget to compliment: "The Yuan family's four generations and three masters are really famous families in the world. Brother Yuan is the eldest son. In the future, Brother Yuan will take charge of the Yuan family, but don't forget the younger brother, and I hope to promote it more."

Hearing this, Yuan Tan seemed to remember something. When he stopped the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, he sighed. The food in the bowl seemed to be less fragrant.

Xiahou An asked in confusion: "Why did Brother Yuan sigh?"

After confirming that Xiahou An would not harm him, Yuan Tan also opened his heart: "My father doesn't like my mediocre appearance, and I only favor my third brother Yuan Shang. I once said before everyone that Shang'er is the most like me!"

Hearing this, Xiahou An was angry, as if he was humiliated, and looked very angry: "Brother Yuan is so majestic, handsome, brave to kill the enemy on the battlefield, and has made great contributions to Mr. Yuan. This is the heroic figure that a great man in the world should have. It is not comparable to that of Yuan Shang!"

"Mr. Yuan is simply confused!"

Yuan Tan was somewhat moved by the indignant expression of Xiahou An's eyes. After so many years, he could not have expected that the one who stood up for him was his opponent. In addition, Xiahou An was the first person to praise him for his handsomeness, which made him feel even more happy. When he looked at Xiahou An again, he seemed to feel that the guy in front of him was not as disgusting as before.

"That's right, but my father prefers my third brother, so what can I do?" Yuan Tan was a little discouraged when he thought of this.

Xiahou An, however, kept motivating Yuan Tan to cheer up: "Since ancient times, you have been orderly in the old age. You are the eldest son. In the future, you must be you, and you can only be you!"

"I just regret that I am weak and that only a small Duchang is in the face. Otherwise, I will definitely be a pawn and cheer for the eldest son."

This reminded Yuan Tan. If Xiahou An really works, why didn’t he use him as a secret agent and be used as a foreign aid?

If you use it at a critical moment, you may have unexpected results.

"You really want to help me?"

Yuan Tan looked at Xiahou An repeatedly and asked with some uncertainty.

Xiahou An had no objection to this, bowed his hand and said with confidence: "I would like to go through fire and water for Brother Yuan!"

That being said, but Yuan Tan is not a fool either, "How can I believe you?"

Regarding this question, Xiahou An has no clear answer at the moment, and only said: "I really can't come up with something to prove it now, but as long as Brother Yuan can give me a chance, I will definitely use actions to prove my sincerity!"

The words were said nicely, but Yuan Tan didn't believe it. He put the bowls and chopsticks in his hand and directly offered his own conditions: "Don't wait, I'll leave this to you today. If you can let me kill Wang Xiu, I will believe everything you said just now. Otherwise, everything will be free from talking!"

At this time, Yuan Tan had already firmly believed that the reason why he was defeated was not because he was defeated by Xiahou An, but because Wang Xiu made a move.

He hates the most of the Erwuzi who is so proud of his lord.

"This...isn't that good?"

Xiahou An said in a difficult situation. Since Wang Xiu had defected to me, I promised to save his life before. Now if Brother Yuan vented his anger, others would poke my backbone in the future...

"You've thought about it!" Yuan Tan turned his back and interrupted Xiahou An's later words, completely forgot his identity as a prisoner.

Little did he know that Xiahou An was already happy. It would be a disaster for Wang Xiu to keep this guy. If Yuan Tan was willing to take action, it would be a pleasure to kill someone with a knife!
