The two brothers followed Gongsun Gong to Xiangping.

The Gongsun family lived in Liaodong for a long time and had long been the king of Liaodong. Therefore, they attached great importance to the construction of Xiangping, the governor.

Xiangping City is high and deep, and there are wide roads in the city, enough for four horses to go in parallel.

The prosperity is not much worse than that of Yecheng in Dayan.

The soldiers on the city walls were dressed in distinctive armor and were full of swords and guns, and they were obviously elite troops.

Gongsun Gong general Yuan Shang, Yuan Xi and his group led him to a three-story building in the prosperous city and smiled at them:

"This is my Liaodong inn.

This place is close to the commercial street, and there is a good place to go whether it is for eating or buying clothes.

The two Your Highnesses will rest here for a while.

When I report to my father, my father will definitely invite the two His Highnesses to come and have a lecture."

"This will bring you a blessing to Brother Gongsun."

Yuan Shang bowed to Gongsun Gong and continued:

"Our army is stationed outside the city, and there is not enough food and grass.

Brother Gongsun, look..."

Gongsun Gong spread his hands expressionlessly and said:

"Sorry, Your Highness Yuan Shang, our Liaodong is in a remote place, and there is really no surplus grain for your army."

Yuan Shang quickly shook his head and said:

"No, no, Brother Gongsun misunderstood.

I have no intention of asking you for food.

I mean, can you buy some food from Gongsun Prefect?"

"Buy food, of course it's OK."

Gongsun Gong stretched out three fingers and said to Yuan Shang:

"Your Highness also knows that it is not easy to transport grain from the Central Plains.

Therefore, our price is 30% more expensive than the grain sold by normal merchants."

Yuan Xi couldn't help but say angrily:

"30%?"

Why don’t you grab it?!

If you do business like this, we might as well buy food in the city ourselves!”

Gongsun Gong's face remained unchanged and said to Yuan Xi:

"You can try it and see if anyone in Xiangping City dares to sell you food.

If anyone dares to do this, I, Gongsun Gong, will serve you the food and supplies for free."

"you!"

When Yuan Xi was anxious, he wanted to go forward to argue with Gongsun Gong, but Yuan Shang grabbed him.

Yuan Shang smiled at Gongsun Gong:

"My brother has a bad temper and has hit Brother Gongsun. Don't mind brother.

30% will be 30%, so let’s buy the cost of Dajun for one month first.

I wonder when the food and grass will be in place?"

Gongsun responded:

"As long as the money arrives, the food and grass arrives soon."

"Okay, I'll pay now. Please send the food and grass quickly with Brother Gongsun."

Yuan Shang took a money box from Xu Lin, took out a few money tickets and handed them to Gongsun Gong.

These cash coupons are extremely denominational, enough to buy food and grass.

Although the Great Yan was dead, Yuan Shao still had a lot of money from levying heavy taxes before, which was enough for the two brothers to spend some time.

Gongsun Gong glanced at the money box, a hint of greed flashed in his eyes, and then disappeared.

He held the money ticket in his hand and smiled:

"His Royal Highness Yuan Shang is indeed generous.

Don't worry, the food and grass will be delivered immediately."

After Gongsun Gong left, Yuan Shang, Yuan Xi and his confidants entered the inn to rest.

Yuan Shang lowered his voice and said to Yuan Xi:

"Brother, what do you think of this Xiangping City?"

Yuan Xi replied:

"When our Dayan was in its prime, we always thought that Liaodong was a bitter and cold place, and we did not pay much attention to it.

I didn’t expect that after so many years of development, Gongsun’s family has built such a majestic city.”

Yuan Shang sighed:

"Yes, with the prosperity of Xiangping, it is enough to see the prosperity of Liaodong.

It is said that Gongsun Duxiong Zhang Haidong, powerful and powerful foreigners, and expeditioned Goguli in the east, expanding the territory of Liaodong more than once.

Detaining in Liaodong is enough to support hundreds of thousands of soldiers!

With such strong strength, you can go south to compete with Chu State.”

A trace of ruthlessness flashed between Yuan Xi's eyebrows and said:

"Gongsun Du was not a humble minor official, so what qualifications are there to occupy such a treasure land?

Liaodong should belong to my Yuan family!"

Yuan Shang was also very envious of Liaodong, and he asked Yuan Xi:

"My brother also saw it. Now Gongsun is managing Liaodong like an iron barrel.

Just because of the ten thousand soldiers in our hands, I'm afraid we can't win Xiangping, right?"

Yuan Xi sneered:

"With my Yuan family's prestige of the three Dukes of the fourth generation, I only need to destroy the entire Gongsun family, and the rest of the Liaodong civil and military officials must join us.

At that time, I will work hard here to manage, develop strength and go to the Central Plains to restore the Great Yan!"

Yuan Shang looked hesitant on his face. After all, it was too dangerous to launch a rebellion on Gongsun’s territory.

In the end, his desire defeated reason and gritted his teeth and said:

“Brother is right, I’ve done it!

When will we start?"

Yuan Xi thought about it and said:

"We just arrived in Liaodong, Gongsun Du, Gongsun Kang and his son will definitely be wary of you and me.

Let’s see Gongsun Du’s first, so that he can relax his vigilance.

Then look for a dark and windy night..."

Speaking of this, Yuan Xi made a neck wiping action and looked at Yuan Shang with a ruthless face and said:

"In this way, big things can be decided!"

Yuan Shang responded excitedly:

"Brother is a good plan!"

The two brothers imagined their bright future in occupying Liaodong and couldn't help but immerse themselves in it.

It's ridiculous to say that the two fought to the death for the throne in Dayan, and they wanted to kill each other.

Yuan Shang's mother, Liu, even regarded Yuan Xi, as a thorn in his eyes and a thorn in his flesh, and often made slanderous words to Yuan Shao.

Now the two brothers have no place to stand under their feet, and they are as anxious as dogs who are straying, but they can unite as if they are brothers.

After the two entered the city, two more hours passed, and the Anmen who were on a fast horse also arrived at Xiangping's attachment.

The members of the Ancient Mission who explored the way, Zhe Malay reported:

"Report to all the leaders, Xiangping City is ahead, which is the base camp of the Gongsun clan in Liaodong.

There are 200,000 elite troops in Liaodong in the city, where Gongsun Du, Gongsun Kang and his son stayed here all year round.

Yuan Shang, Yuan Xi and his group entered the city.”
