During the 190s, he served under the warlords Liu Bei, Yuan Shu and Lü Bu. In particular, Liu Bei, as Inspector of Yu province, recommended him as a maocai.[8] After the fall of Lü Bu in February 199, Yuan Huan joined Cao Cao as an adviser.[9] He was involved in a number of policy decisions, including the administration of the tuntian policy. In the 210s, Yuan Huan was given the appointment of Prefect of the Gentlemen of the Palace (郎中令).[10]
Yuan Huan died sometime before 220, and it is said Cao Cao wept for him.[11] He left behind four sons, all of whom were known for their scholarly accomplishments. His descendants became one of the leading aristocratic families of the Jin dynasty and Southern dynasties.
