Chapter 78

The pouring rain drenched everyone, Yuan Xu stood beside the car, holding Yuan Shao's hand tightly.

Trying to open his eyes, Yuan Shao's lips moved.

"Father, don't talk." Yuan Xu reassured: "I'll find a place to camp right now."

Yuan Shao's head moved, as if shaking his head.

His eyes still didn't open, he just uttered a few words indistinctly: "Hebei...Jiao...you..."

Yuan Xu heard it, and so did Feng Ji, Pang Tong and others.

His meaning is very clear, Hebei will be handed over to Yuan Xu in the future.

Feng Ji's face turned ugly.

He tried his best to support Yuan Shang, and even helped to make suggestions.

But Yuan Shao expressed his willingness to hand over Hebei to Yuan Xu.

Doing things under Yuan Xu, will everything come true as before?

After saying the last few words, Yuan Shao tilted his head and lost his breath.

"Father!" Yuan Xu shouted loudly, but it was a pity that Yuan Shao could never hear him again.

A generation of heroes, their souls have returned to heaven!

Holding Yuan Shao's hand tightly, Yuan Xu lowered his head.

Ever since Muye, Yuan Shao has favored him over other brothers.

Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.

Even though he was a time traveler, Yuan Shao's death still made him extremely sad.

"Father hasn't had time to listen to my report." Gently stroking Yuan Shao's hand, Yuan Xu choked with sobs: "I defeated Xudu and rescued the emperor. He is not far away, but my father didn't come in time to meet..."

Yuan Xu wiped off the rain from his face, and the heavy rain wet him again in an instant: "Give Hebei to me, and I will destroy Cao Mengde, and ask him to stand up for his father and apologize!"

"Duke Yuan is dead, you have to take good care of yourself." Pang Tong persuaded, "Although Cao Cao was defeated, he died like a hundred-legged worm..."

Yuan Xu interrupted him: "I know what to do."

He then asked: "Did Xingba go after him?"

"General Gan has been chasing him out for a long time." Pang Tong replied.

"The order is for him to return immediately." Yuan Xu said: "Let's rush to Yecheng as soon as possible!"

That night, the army failed to reach the nearest city, so they stationed in the wild.

The rain is still falling.

Yuan Xu sat in the tent, recalling everything that happened during the day.

He did not expect that Yuan Shao would entrust Hebei to him when he was dying.

Although there are Yuan Shao's last words, not many people hear them, and the key is to meet the rules.

Yuan Xu shouted outside the tent: "Bring Feng Yuan Tu here."

After a while, the guards came to Fengji: "Sign up, my lord, please come here."

The raindrops hit the tent, making a "crackling" sound.

Yuan Xu said to Feng Ji: "Yuan Tu, please sit down."

Feng Ji thanked me for taking a seat: "My lord called me, do you have something to tell me?"

"Are we close?" Yuan Xu asked.

"It depends on what Young Master thinks." Feng Ji replied, "I dare not speak nonsense."

"You were with me when I married Zhen Ji, and you were by my father's last words." Yuan Xu said, "I think it's close."

Not understanding what he wanted to say, Feng Ji was very disturbed: "It is an honor to be recognized by the young master."

"Did Yuan Tu hear what father said when he was dying?" Yuan Xu asked.

"I heard it." Of course Feng Ji dared not say that he didn't hear it: "My lord said to hand over Hebei to you."

Yuan Xu's rescue of the corpses twice was second to none, repelling Nan Hua really shocked Feng Ji.

He had no doubt that if he offended the Fourth Young Master, he would not be far from death.

"Back to Ye City, what is Yuan Tu's plan?"

"Of course it is to pass on the lord's last words to everyone." Feng Ji replied: "Congratulations, my lord, for inheriting Hebei."

"What I want is your words." Yuan Xu nodded approvingly: "It has long been an indisputable fact that the Yuan family brothers compete for favor. Since my father gave me Hebei, I will not refuse. Anyone who opposes me..."

He smiled coldly: "It's getting late, let's go back and rest."

Before Yuan Xu finished speaking, Feng Ji already guessed what he meant.

Resigned and walked out of the tent, Fengji's heart was beating non-stop.

He once pinned his hopes on Yuan Shang, but he did not expect that the fourth son from humble beginnings would rise halfway.

Facing Yuan Xu, even if the other party didn't say anything, he could still feel the coercion coming towards him.

Comparing the two sons, Feng Ji certainly knows what to do.

Not long after he left, the guard reported: "Young Master Qi, Your Majesty is here."

Liu Xie was the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

As a courtier, Yuan Xu can't be too entrusted.

He got up and went outside the tent, only to see Liu Xie waiting there accompanied by a regular attendant.

"Your Majesty, hurry up and enter the tent." Yuan Xu greeted, "Why are you drenched outside?"

After entering the tent, Liu Xie said to Yuan Xu: "Mr. Yuan passed away, and I was very sad. I planned to come to Xie Xianxin earlier, but I heard that someone was talking here, so I came late."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern." Yuan Xu thanked him, and said to Liu Xie, "The people who pursued Cao Cao haven't come back yet. When they arrive, I will go back to Hebei first. The crusade against Cao Cao is only in the morning and evening. Your Majesty has to read the call to action against Cao Cao himself."

"I will do my best for Xianxin's matter." Liu Xie answered very simply.

Yuan Xu broke through Xudu, although he gave Liu Xie a disgrace that day, he and Fuhou took care of him and Fu Hou in every possible way.

The imperial power is no longer there, but Liu Xie's life is much easier than under the coercion of Cao Cao.

When Cao Cao occupied Xudu, he was worried every day that he would suddenly lose his life.

Yuan Xu never let him have such thoughts at all.

He even told Pang Tong and others to hand over some less important matters to Liu Xie.

Having not enjoyed the feeling of being in power for many years, being able to make decisions suddenly is a rare satisfaction for Liu Xie.

Xu's request, of course, he is willing to do it.

"It's getting late, don't dare to delay Your Majesty's rest." Yuan Xu reminded Liu Xie: "We have to hurry tomorrow morning."

"Xianxin, don't be too sad, the overall situation in Hebei is still waiting for you to preside over it." Liu Xie said a few words, and then left.

The rain was getting worse and worse, and it didn't stop at all.

Yuan Xu lay in the tent and did not fall asleep for a long time.

Yuan Shao left his last words and handed over Hebei to him.

Back in Ye City, will Yuan Shang and others submit obediently?

Drowsy and about to fall asleep, the guard outside the tent reported: "Young Master, General Gan is back."

Yuan Xu sat up: "Please come in."

Gan Ning was drenched and walked into the tent: "The last general is back."

"How far did Xingba chase?" Yuan Xu asked, "How many Cao troops were killed?"

"Thirty or forty miles away." Gan Ning replied annoyedly, "Ten miles away, the corpses fell one after another. Our soldiers were short of men, and we didn't kill many enemy troops. We just watched Cao Cao run away."

"We're going back to Hebei." Yuan Xu said, "Let Cao Cao go first."

"My lord, you don't plan to take advantage of the victory to pursue it?" Gan Ning said with a blank face, "This opportunity is rare!"

"Father passed away." Yuan Xu said with grief on his face, "Before he died, he entrusted Hebei to me. Going back to clean up the mess is what I should do most."

Gan Ning was taken aback: "Duke Yuan... is gone..."
