After experiencing the storm at the city gate, officials at all levels and generals in Su County all showed a hint of awe and a much respectful expression. Yuan Xi's unscrupulous and arrogant manner made them realize so clearly for the first time that who was the real master on the northern land?

Not long after, under the eyes of the civil and military officials in the huge, majestic and heavily guarded governor's mansion, Yuan Xi took over the seal of the governor. After everyone shouted, Yuan Xi officially became the governor of Youzhou and officially had the qualifications to dominate the country and fight for the world.

After Yuan Xi became the governor, the first order was not a civil affairs strategy, but to let everyone not call him a governor, but still call him a prince. He only used the title of governor in documents and important occasions. This has no particular meaning. It is mainly because he is used to listening to it himself. However, if Yuan Xi becomes independent in the future, he must call him the lord.

After the acceptance of the matter was over, there was a grand banquet. In the spacious and bright main hall, Yuan Xi sat on the main seat in the middle. Tadun and Han Yan sat on the left with civil servants, Xian Yufu and Jiao Chu sat on the right with military generals. There were at least 30 civil servants and military generals present, and they kept standing by the gate. For the first time, Yuan Xi, who was so many civil servants and military officials, raised his glass happily and said, "Come on, we are drinking a glass."

"Young Master, please" everyone responded immediately.

After drinking it all, Yuan Xi gently put down his glass, looked at Li Ru, who was sitting in the third position of the civil minister, and asked, "Sir, how is Tian Changshi?"

Hearing this, Xian Yufu, who was especially arranged to sit down at the first place, was immediately anxious and looked over with concern. Yuan Xi's beating would definitely not be injured.

"Report to the young master, the medical officer said that there is nothing serious, and it will be fine for three or four months of cultivation," Li Ru replied.

Yuan Xi's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he sighed: "That's good. Now that I think about it, Xi is too impulsive. Tian Changshi did make a big mistake, but he might be deceived. Let's do this! Let him recuperate in Su County in the future, and all the expenses required will be borne by the governor's office."

Many people were stunned and were confused by Yuan Xi's frequent love and disgust.

However, a smart person understood the meaning of Yuan Xi's words as soon as he heard it. Han Heng smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Young Master Renhou, we admire him. However, in this way, the position of Chief Secretary of Shanggu County will be vacant. Chief Secretary assists the prefect and is responsible for the important civil affairs of the place. It is crucial and cannot be misunderstood."

Hearing this, everyone immediately realized that the young master was trying to seize power!

A hint of satisfaction flashed across Yuan Xi's face, but he did not directly assign him. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Xian Yufu, who had a hint of worry on his face, and said gently: "General Xian Yu, you are the prefect of Shanggu County, what do you think you should do?"

Xian Yufu was shocked. Others could guess that he was not a fool, but he was really reluctant to leave Shanggu County, which he had been running for a long time, so he could only bite the bullet and said, "I can hold on to it alone."

"Haha, that's too tiring. General Xianyu made great achievements in military affairs. There is no doubt about this, but he may be too good at people's livelihood and government affairs. If you don't have a suitable candidate, Xi will recommend one to you, Zhen Yan." Yuan Xi suddenly said loudly.

Sitting there, Zhen Yan stood up excitedly, bowed and said, "Young Master"

"This is my wife Zhen Mi's elder brother, the heir of the Zhen family, a wealthy businessman in the world. She is very talented, especially in the civil affairs and economics. She is not afraid of relatives. I think it's him. You have no objection!" Yuan Xi asked with a smile.

"Of course not. Mr. Zhen's talent, we have heard about it." Han Heng immediately supported it. Looking at the two people who sang the double act, the other officials smiled bitterly and nodded one after another.

Xian Yufu's face turned red with anger, he held the wine glass tightly, his eyes filled with anger.

"General Xianyu, may you disagree? Xi is already quite tolerant of you?" Yuan Xi's tone became plain and cold again.

Xian Yufu couldn't help but tremble. He was already scared of Yuan Xi's tone and hurriedly said, "Of course not. I just think that this arrangement will make the people of Shanggu County dissatisfied and cause riots. Although Tian Changshi was wrong, he still had meticulous treatment for the lives of the people."

"Haha, this is not a problem. I will announce to the entire Youzhou that I will promote the Chief Secretary of the Governor's Office to be the chief clerk of the governor's office and be firmly accompanied by Xi. I believe that after some teaching, I will definitely be able to change my heart and work with peace of mind," Yuan Xi laughed loudly.

"What" Xian Yufu's pupils shrank, and he wanted to put Tian Yu under house arrest. Tian Yu was his first counselor. He had a long-term vision and a profound plan. Without Tian Yu, he was simply cut off his arm. But he didn't know what to say. Yuan Xi was the governor, in charge of everything inside and outside Youzhou. It would be great if he could call someone and say something to him.

"The person Xi arranged is also a good talent. General Xianyu can rest assured. I think you will get along well in the future." Yuan Xi signaled to Zhen Yan.

"General Xianyu, Yan will definitely respect the teachings." Zhen Yan immediately gave a slight salute.

Xian Yufu smiled bitterly, stood up helplessly, and said, "Shi Zhen, it's serious."

"Haha, OK" Yuan Xi laughed with satisfaction.

The banquet ended late at night, and it was just over. Yuan Xi took Tadun, the Wuhuan Chanyu, to chat in the inner hall, while Xian Yufu hurried to find Tian Yu. After this inquiry, he finally found Tian Yu in an ordinary side room in the governor's mansion. Looking at the figure holding gauze all over, he immediately rushed over, and said with a sad face and a self-blame: "Guang Rang, are you okay!"

"I'm fine, general, don't worry." Tian Yu smiled bitterly.

"I am incompetent and I can't protect you," Xian Yufu said in shame.

"No, it's because Yu himself is too arrogant and underestimated the second young master and general. Our affairs have been exposed. The second young master takes over the righteousness and Yuan is also guaranteed. Everything is over. During the banquet, is the second young master already delegating your power?" Tian Yu asked softly.

Xian Yufu nodded and said angrily: "He asked Zhen Yan to take over your position as the chief minister."

"What did the general think?" Tian Yu asked calmly, not angry at all because of the loss of his official position.

"I am naturally unwilling to give in. Shanggu County was obtained by you and me for a long time. How could we give in so easily?" Xian Yufu said unwillingly.

"If the general thinks this way, his life will inevitably be lost," Tian Yu suddenly said seriously.

Xian Yufu's heart trembled, and then he said angrily: "Can he really dare to kill me?"

"What's he afraid of? He told you that you have great military achievements and cannot be dealt with at will. He is just comforting the general. We committed a death sentence. The reason why we did not take you down immediately is for General Yan Rou. If General Yan Rou had not been in the 40,000 elite army, you and I would definitely die today. He seemed to be domineering, but in fact he was so calm that he was afraid of the general's dissatisfaction. But this is only temporary. Once he gained a firm foothold, his troops were strong, and he was connected to Wuheng, and his people's livelihood was at ease. At that time, even if the general wanted to surrender, he would not have a foothold in Youzhou," Tian Yu said affirmatively.

"But if the position of Chief Shi was replaced by Zhen Yan, he would inevitably control the finance and food of Shanggu County, and then the lifeline of my tens of thousands of troops would be immediately pinned down and become a rootless source." Xian Yufu was not a fool. As soon as Yuan Xi said, he understood the key here.

Tian Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Since the general is so reluctant, then let's go back on it!"
