Yuan Shao from Jizhou learned that Zhao Xing was going to Yuyang on the fifth day after the bride group left. () On the subsequent journey, Zhao Xing took another sixteen days to arrive at Yuyang City.

It only takes five days to go from Jizhou to Yuyang and whip it quickly. This means that if Yuan Shao wants to do something in Yuyang City, he will have enough time to arrange and prepare.

Some time ago, Zhuge Liang met with the governors of various prefectures and prefectures all the way south, but did not go north to Yecheng, Jizhou to meet Yuan Shao, but this did not affect Yuan Shao's determination and speed to join the court's anti-Zhao alliance.

There is only one Henei County between Yecheng and the eastern capital Luoyang. In terms of distance, it is only a hundred miles away from Luoyang than Chenliu where Cao Cao is. Therefore, whether in terms of the speed of the message transmission or the secret personnel exchanges, Yecheng and Luoyang are very close. What the emperor said in the court in the morning could reach Yuan Shao's ears the next morning, and Yuan Shao even knew about the news that the court was preparing to attack Zhao Xing earlier than Cao Cao knew.

It is said that there are people in the court who are easy to be an official. The key is that once someone is above the temple, he can quickly inform the emperor's actions and preferences to those he wants to promote and take care of. Local officials who have obtained accurate information can make preparations in advance accordingly. This will naturally be easier to win the favor of the top than competitors, and the speed of promotion is as fast as a rocket.

The Yuan clan, who had always wanted to get rid of the "fake Taifu" Zhao Xing, was looking at the scene in the court. When he learned that the court was preparing to take action against Jin with the help of the snowflake salt incident, he began to prepare secretly.

After Yuan Shao told several strategists about Zhao Xing's trip to Yuyang, everyone started to write about Zhao Xing's whereabouts.

After analysis and discussion, everyone suggested that Yuan Shao quickly contact Zhang Yan, Heishan, and asked him to select a group of dead soldiers to sneak into Youzhou, ambush the throat of the important road outside Yuyang City, and wait for an opportunity to assassinate Zhao Xing; on the other hand, the Yuan family used the dead soldiers of the family to sneak into Yuyang City, creating chaos and panic in the city on the day of Zhao Yun's wedding, and blame Gongsun Zan, causing suspicion and suspicion between Zhao Xing and Gongsun Zan.

These two suggestions do not seem clever, but they can help delay Zhao Xing's next action. Yuan Shao's purpose is to allow Zhao Xing to stay in Youzhou for more time so that the court and the Yuan family can get more time to launch follow-up actions.

Yuan Shao was resolute and ruthless this time, and without hesitation, he adopted the suggestions of the counselors around him. Not only did he secretly arrange his nephew Gaoguan to go to Heishan to meet Zhang Yan in person, but he also sent fifty dead soldiers raised by his family to cover up his identities and secretly heading into Yuyang City.

On the ninth day of the 10th month, Yuyang City was very lively. The city was filled with people watching the fun from Dongyang Street to Zuixianlou. Even many foreign vendors who passed by couldn't help but be curious. They put on a big business and squeezed into the crowd and made do.

The people all ran to the East Street to watch the fun. The West Street, which was originally noisy on weekdays, became silent. Only the street patrol runners who were responsible for the security in the city were walking back and forth, not daring to relax at all.

The three yamen runners saw their boss coming from the street, so they stopped saluting and waited for instructions.

"Hello, Wang Ban!" said the crowd of patrols.

"He Dayong, Xu Kai, Zheng Tong, you three are responsible for the public security in Xinli Lane, West Street today. You must not neglect them. You need to pay attention to the whereabouts of suspicious people on the street. Don't let ulterior motives disturb the Grand Commander's marriage!" The head of the troupe explained with a serious expression.

"Sir, obey the order!" Zhongshangjie also answered with a serious expression.

Soon, Wang Bantou rode away on a horse and went to South Street to inspect and supervise the yamen runners on duty. For those of them who have public office, watching the fun has nothing to do with him. The more people gather, the more they have to open their eyes and be prepared.

After an inconspicuous shop door panel in Xinli Lane, several pairs of eyes were silently watching Wang Bantou and the three street patrolmen and separated after they met, without making any noise from beginning to end. The people in the house may be only a dozen steps away from the people on the street, but the three ordinary yamen runners on the street did not have the keen feeling of being secretly targeted by others.

After the three yamen runners patrolling the streets walked towards the alley, someone in the room said in a deep voice: "Do you all understand their respective tasks?"

"B San understands, go to the county magistrate's mansion in North Street to set fire!"

"A 21 understands, go to the market at the south gate to set fire!"

"A Sixteen understood, go to Xijiaoxiang to kill someone!"

...

"Okay, now we will take action separately! Once the journey is exposed and besieged by the brigade of officers and soldiers, we will escape to the provincial governor's mansion to the death. Remember the words that the lord told before leaving!" The leader in the house looked at everyone with a harsh look on his face and issued the last order.

Soon, a group of people of different shapes and dresses crossed the wall from the backyard of this shop, walking through the yards and secluded places at the end of the alleys. Seeing the skills of these mysterious people, they turned out to be high-end gossips.

"Crack, crack, crack, snap, snap...bang, bang...bang..." The sound of firecrackers mixed with musical instruments blowing and beating sounds all the way from the Zuixian Tower. The groom Zhao Yun rode a tall horse in front of the road, and the sedan chairs carried by eight people followed behind. The closest streets to the wedding party were the two rows of soldiers standing upright. The people were standing behind the soldiers. They were watching the fun and poked their heads out from time to time, or stretched out a hand, and then they were polite but forced back without hesitation by the soldiers in charge of guarding in front.

The streets that were not far away were not very far away, because the people were too enthusiastic, people squeezed through the walls of soldiers from time to time, which took half an hour to arrive at Zhao's mansion.

Guests and friends who had already been looking forward to it were surrounded by laughter and looking at Zhao Yun wearing a big red wedding dress, with a serious look on his face, and pulled out the bride with a red cloth covering her head with a long red silk cloth. Everyone was very acknowledging the wedding ceremony that Zhao Xing suggested. It not only looked lively, but also added a lot of festive flavor.

The emcee who presided over the wedding was Sima Zhi, who was very strong. Seeing that Zhao Yun had already led the bride into the mansion, he cleared his throat and shouted loudly: "The bride enters the mansion, plays music, and fires cannons!"

"Dong, dong, dong...drip, answer, answer..." The sound of gongs and drums and horns rang out one after another.

"Bang, bang..." The salute that soared into the sky rang out over the Governor's Mansion.

"Bride and groom, worship the heaven and earth!"

"Two visits to the high hall!"

"Honey husband and wife!"

"Send to the bridal chamber!"

The wedding ceremony went down one by one. As it was about to be the wedding banquet, Wang Bantou, who was originally patrolling on the South Street, rushed in with blood. Looking at the familiar state master Gongsun, Master Sima, General Zhao, Prefect Cui, and several other people who were not very familiar with whom they had obvious identities, he said without hesitation: "Oh no, there are villains in the city. Please strengthen your defense and not be assassinated by the traitor!"
