While the Yuan family was holding a family dinner happily, two young men were chatting in a luxurious mansion in Luoyang City.

The dim candlelight reflected on the two of them, pulling their shadows long on the wall, adding a bit of weirdness.

Both young men are both very beautiful and dressed in luxury.

The younger one said to the older young man with his frown:

"Brother, we have repeatedly asked for marriage to Uncle Cai's house, why has he not agreed to it yet?

I have always said that Yan'er's junior sister is still young, so let's wait."

The older young man comforted:

"Zhongdao, don't worry.

This marriage was agreed by my father and Uncle Cai long ago. With Uncle Cai's character, he would never regret it. He just waited for a while.

I think when I went to the Cai family last time, Uncle Cai had already relaxed. Miss Cai's family will sooner or later be our Wei family's wife."

It turns out that these two young men are the Wei brothers who met Yuan Shu in Cai’s Mansion.

Wei Kai's comfort did not have a good effect. Wei Zhongdao still frowned and said worriedly:

"But I always feel that Junior Sister Yan'er's heart is not on me, and I even feel that she is a little bored with me.

Her thoughts seemed to be on her senior brother Yuan Shu.”

Wei Kai chuckled disdainfully:

"What's the point of a woman's wish?

Women are just tools for marriage between big families.

Marriage emphasizes the orders of parents, and the matchmaker says frankly.

As for whether Yan'er's junior sister is happy or not, it doesn't matter at all.

As long as Uncle Cai agrees to marry into the Wei family, she will be unable to do anything.”

After hearing Wei Kai's words, Wei Zhongdao nodded with consent, and then said worriedly:

"But Yuan Shu was obviously a sinister and cunning person, and his status as a legitimate son of the Yuan family was also very noble.

If he had any interest in Junior Sister Cai, I would probably not have been so smooth if I wanted to marry Yan'er."

After hearing his brother's concerns, Wei Kai sneered:

"He has a noble status as a legitimate son of the Yuan family, but is the same as a legitimate son of the Wei family?

Although the Yuan family's four generations and three officials looked extremely glamorous on the surface.

If we really want to talk about the background, how can the Yuan family be the opponent of my Wei family?

Don’t forget that our Wei family is an old family that has risen since the time of Emperor Wu.”

Wei Zhongdao said depressedly:

"What's the use if my Wei family is stronger than the Yuan family? Now Yuan Shu has become a stumbling block for me.

Brother, can you find a way to solve the hidden danger of Yuan Shu now?"

Wei Kai thought for a moment and spoke:

"There is no way. As long as Yuan Shu is ruined, Uncle Cai will probably be alienated from him.

At that time, Junior Sister Cai will recognize Yuan Shu’s true face and put it in your arms with peace of mind."

Wei Zhongdao's eyes lit up after hearing this and said excitedly:

"Brother, this method is good, but how can you ruin Yuan Shu?

In recent years, Yuan Shu has made great achievements in governing Nanyang, and his status is unlikely to be shaken."

Wei Kai Zhizhu smiled while holding her hands:

"You Tao is that a thousand-mile dike collapses from an ant hole. It is natural that enemies that are difficult to break from the outside can be thought of from the inside."

Wei Zhongdao looked at Wei Kai and said in confusion:

"Brother, what do you mean from the inside...?"

Wei Kai looked at his younger brother and smiled mysteriously, and said:

"You don't have to worry about that much, just wait and see Yuan Shu be ruined."

...

The next morning, Yuan Shao's courtyard.

As usual, the little maid brought Yuan Shao’s favorite dishes into his room:

"Young Master, it's time to have a meal."

Yuan Shao was leaning against the bed with a bad expression at this time. He glanced at the dishes brought by the little maid casually and said:

"I don't have the appetite, just take it down."

"It's... the young master." The little maid originally wanted to persuade him, but when she saw Yuan Shao's gloomy face, she decided to be obedient.

"Please put the food on the table, you go out." Just as the little maid was about to take away the food on the table, a sharp male voice came from behind.

The little maid turned around and saw that the person who came was wearing a blue brocade robe and was born with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks. He was the confidant counselor of his son Xu You and Xu.

After listening to Xu You's instructions, she quickly put down the food in her hand, gave a gift to the two of them, and slowly retreated. Only Yuan Shao and Xu You were left in the room.

Xu You sat next to the table with a smile, and did not be polite to Yuan Shao. He picked up the chopsticks and started eating the delicious food on the table.

While eating, he said to Yuan Shao: "Lord, your lunch is really delicious, why don't you eat some?"

Yuan Shao looked at Xu You sickly and said weakly:

"No appetite, no matter how good the dishes are, they can't eat them."

The current Yuan Shao's skill "collapse" has not yet been launched, and the wise and wise men are quite wise.

Therefore, Xu You was not angry when he ate his lunch directly, and could also talk to Xu You in a gentle tone.

Xu You drank a glass of Xiao Hongchen on the table and said to Yuan Shao with a smile:

"I think the lord doesn't have an appetite, but has a heart disease."

Yuan Shao nodded:

"Those who know me are far away, but my heart disease is not easy to treat."

Xu You put down the chopsticks in his hand and said to Yuan Shao very confidently:

"The lord's heart is nothing more than the position of the head of the Yuan family.

In recent years, the lord's younger brother Yuan Shu has performed quite eye-catching, which has made the lord's position as the head of the family, which is almost certain, and this is indeed necessary to be guarded against.

However, You brought good news to the lord today, which can be said to be a good medicine to cure the lord's heart disease."

"Oh? What are the tricks of Ziyuan?!" Yuan Shao suddenly became energetic when he heard Xu You had a clever plan to help him win the position of head of the family, and he didn't look a little decadent.

Xu You explained to Yuan Shao:

"Lord, your good brother, although he has performed very extraordinaryly in recent years.

But the trees are fascinated by the forest and the wind will destroy them, and there are many people he offended.

Late yesterday night, people from the Hedong Wei family contacted You and wanted to join forces with the lord to deal with Yuan Shu together."

After hearing Xu You's words, Yuan Shao sneered:

"I didn't expect that my good brother is very brave and even the Hedong Wei family is involved in it.

However, the Hedong Wei family wanted to use me as a gun, and watching my brother Yuan Shu and I have a fight, I can't help but underestimate me, Yuan Benchu.

No matter how bad the relationship between Yuan Shu and I have, it is also an internal matter of our Yuan family. It’s not the turn of his Wei family to intervene!”

The reason why Xu You wanted to persuade Yuan Shao and the Wei family alliance today was that on the one hand, he truly considered Wei Yuan Shao, and on the other hand, he also took the benefits of the Wei family.

Now seeing that Yuan Shao is not interested in the matter of the Wei family alliance, he spoke up and said:

"Lord, the Wei family's purpose is very simple, to ruin Yuan Shu's reputation and ruin him.

This only benefits but not harmful to the lord. As long as Yuan Shu has a bad reputation, wouldn’t the lord of this family be at his fingertips?
