Chapter 234 Did Your Mother and Sister Both Run Away? Yuan Yao Collapses
Yuan Xuan nodded.
She always regarded Feng Yu as an older sister.
Especially after arriving in Shouchun, the two relied on each other for survival.
Accompanied by Feng Yu, Yuan Xuan met Yang Hong's wife.
Lady Yuan Shu was also standing next to Lady Yang Hong.
She was Yuan Yao's biological mother and Empress Zhongchao.
Oh no, she should be called the Empress Dowager now.
However, Yuan Yao, the second emperor of the Zhong family dynasty, did not have his enthronement ceremony, so naturally no one cared about the mere empress dowager.
Yuan Xuan was a concubine's daughter, not born to Yuan Shu's wife.
Lady Yuan Shu usually treated this illegitimate daughter with indifference.
While not exactly demanding, it's certainly not something I particularly like.
"Xuan'er, you've come."
"Madam Yang would like you to accompany her to the East Market of Shouchun. Would you be willing?"
Lady Yuan asked Yuan Xuan in an unquestionable tone.
Yuan Xuan was slightly taken aback, and Feng Yu quickly nudged her with her elbow before Yuan Xuan nodded in agreement.
Yuan Shu's wife smiled and handed Yuan Xuan over to Yang Hong's wife.
Yuan Xuan, Feng Yu, and Yang Hong's wife rode together in a carriage to the East Market of Shouchun.
Throughout the journey, Yuan Xuan was filled with doubts.
But before she could voice her doubts, the carriage drove into a secluded alley.
Madam Yang Hong remained calm, while Yuan Xuan and Feng Yu gradually became tense.
Just then, the coachman wearing a straw hat suddenly said:
"Miss Xuan, my name is Yang Hong."
Upon hearing this, both Yuan Xuan and Feng Yu were stunned.
No!
Lord Yang, you are the Prime Minister of my Zhong Dynasty, how come you have turned into a coachman?
Yang Hong took a bamboo hat and said to Yuan Xuan:
“Miss Yuan, to be honest, after much thought, I have only one way to save your life.”
Yuan Xuan asked cautiously:
"Sir, what do you mean?"
Yang Hong smiled bitterly:
“Miss Yuan is a smart woman. Now that things have come to this, I will tell you the truth.”
"Our Zhongchao Dynasty has entered its countdown to destruction."
"If they resist stubbornly, they will surely be destroyed by Cao Cao's army after the autumn harvest at most."
"My lord's decision to declare himself emperor is treason according to Han law, and he will be executed along with his entire family."
"Miss Yuan, as the lord's daughter, is also on the execution list."
"Unless...Miss Yuan surrenders to Cao Cao's camp, she can save her life."
Yuan Xuan's mind went blank.
As a concubine's daughter neglected by Yuan Shu, Yuan Xuan's cautious and timid nature made her somewhat timid.
At this moment, Yuan Xuan was at a loss after being "alarmed" by Yang Hong.
Feng Yu, on the other hand, was a woman who had seen a lot.
When Dong Zhuo entered the capital and Feng Fang died, Feng Yu was only ten years old. However, she knew how to seek advantage and avoid harm, so she went to Yuan Shu's mansion and was protected by Yuan Shu.
Although Yuan Shu took in Feng Yu because he valued her looks and intended to groom her as a future concubine.
But before Yuan Shu could even make a move against Feng Yu, this beauty, he couldn't wait to go to the underworld to find the ancestor of the Yuan family.
Feng Yu, who lost her father at a young age, was very clear about this.
In chaotic times, one can easily lose their life.
Zhongchao, this is a bottomless pit!
Moreover, Feng Yu, who was adopted by Yuan Shu, knew very well what kind of person Yuan Yao, the current emperor of the Zhong Dynasty, was.
This fellow's abilities are probably not even half as good as Yuan Shu's!
Instead of hoping that Yuan Yao could turn the tide with Zhongchao, it would be better to hope that Yuan Shu would come back from the dead.
Joining Cao Cao's camp is indeed the only way out at the moment.
The saying goes well.
If you can't beat them, join them!
Rumors circulated that Cao Cao favored widows, while Su Yu preferred young girls.
Feng Yu and Yuan Xuan are both considered young girls now.
Go to Cao Cao's camp and join Su Yu, you can't go wrong!
Therefore, Feng Yu said to Yang Hong:
"Does Prime Minister Yang also intend to defect to Cao Cao's camp?"
"May I ask you, young lady, whose connections does Prime Minister Yang have?"
Yang Hong blushed slightly, then smiled and said:
"They got in through Su Ziyi's connections."
He wasn't afraid that Yuan Xuan and Feng Yu would go back and complain.
Since he had already decided to keep Yuan Xuan alive, he naturally wouldn't give her the chance to return to the mansion.
Feng Yu said happily:
"That's a very safe approach."
"But as for the specifics, we are just women, so we will have to rely on Prime Minister Yang to make the arrangements."
Yang Hong nodded and said:
"Protecting my lord's daughter from persecution is also a way for me to be loyal to him."
"However, I also wish to take the lord's wife out of the city, but I have no suitable excuse."
Madam Yang Hong also sighed.
Lady Yuan Shu was unwilling to go shopping in the East Market with her, which eliminated the opportunity to forcibly take Lady Yuan Shu away.
After hearing this, Feng Yu smiled and said:
"What's so difficult about this?"
"The things that the lady cares about most are nothing more than valuable furs."
Madam Yang's eyes lit up immediately.
Although there was no fur coat like in later generations, the clever ancient people were already skilled at making clothes from animal fur and regarded them as luxury items.
Even someone of Yuan Shu's noble status like his wife was not immune to such customs.
soon.
At Feng Yu's suggestion.
Lady Yang Hong sent someone to the Yuan residence again to tell Lady Yuan Shu that she had just bought two fox pelts at the market and hoped that Lady Yuan Shu would do her the honor of visiting the residence.
Yuan Shu's wife was somewhat dissatisfied with this.
Why can't you bring the fox fur to my Yuan residence for appraisal?
Driven by her burning desire to see the fox fur, Lady Yuan Shu set off for the Yang residence, grumbling all the while.
But once she arrived at the Yang residence, things were no longer in her control.
It's also because Yang Hong's family usually behaves too honestly.
Lady Yuan Shu never expected that they would pull such a stunt!
Before night falls.
The carriage carrying Yang Hong's family, along with Yuan Shu's wife, Yuan Xuan, and Feng Yu, headed straight out of the city.
Yuan Shu's wife still wanted to cause some trouble.
It wasn't until Yang Hong told her that if she wanted her son Yuan Yao to survive, the best course of action for her was to quickly go and join Cao Cao's camp.
Lady Yuan Shu fell silent.
But the fact that she could become Yuan Shu's principal wife clearly shows that she was no ordinary woman.
Yang Hong is right.
From a rational perspective, Zhongchao is finished.
There was no choice but to surrender.
If she could persuade Cao Cao to abandon the Han laws, perhaps Yuan Yao would still have a chance to save his life.
So how could we get Cao Cao to abandon the laws of the Han Dynasty?
All I can say is that it's up to human effort to make things happen.
Feng Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although forcibly abducting Madam Yuan was a betrayal.
But for this "surrender squad," their chances of winning have increased even further.
If Cao Cao had met Lady Yuan, or Su Yu had met Yuan Xuan and Feng Yu, would there have been any possibility of resistance?
To cater to someone's preferences and make those preferences even better is the best approach.
When Yuan Yao returned to the backyard, exhausted after inspecting the soldiers all day at the drill ground...
Yuan Yao's world has completely collapsed!
My biological mother and younger sister are both not at home!
Yang Hong's family also mysteriously disappeared.
This……
Is it really fate that is going to destroy Da Zhong?
Yuan Yao broke down.
