Chapter 301 The Emperor Weeps for the Dead.

Chapter 301: The Emperor Weeps for the Dead.

A big event happened in Xudu City.
The spread was very heated.

That was the most capable minister under Cao Mengde, Xun Yu. Lord Xun has passed away.

As for how Xun Lingjun died, it was no secret in the entire city of Xudu...

It all comes down to four words: wealth and life are over.

The Xun Mansion was covered in white on this day.

The big shots in Xudu City came one after another...

The sounds of mourning and crying could be heard clearly outside the Xun Mansion.

Death of Xun Yu.

Everyone in the entire Xudu city knew about it.

Due to their low status, the common people were not qualified to enter the palace to pay their respects, so the streets and markets outside were crowded with people.

"It was raining heavily that day, and the King of Wei came to Xun's house in the rain."

"Like in previous years, the food box was delivered to Xun Lingjun..."

"I saw it. It was handed over by Cao Mengde, the King of Wei, himself."

"The King of Wei has been in the car the whole time. He didn't show up at all. He just stretched out his hand and handed over the food box..."

"After all, it has been several decades. I'm sure the King of Wei can't bear it."

"Yes, the fortune is gone and the life is over. After all, they have been together for decades. The King of Wei can't bear to see Xun Lingjun..."

"I saw it at that time. After the King of Wei left, Lord Xun opened the food box and found it was empty. He laughed for a long time in the rain, and then a doctor was invited to the Xun Mansion."

"The doctor couldn't save Lord Xun. The King of Wei wanted Lord Xun to die. Who can stop him?"

"Just like Chen Gong back then. Even though Chen Gong and the King of Wei had a deep friendship, Chen Gong eventually joined Lü Bu."

"Marquis Lü Wen was also very famous at that time, unrivaled in the world, but compared with the current King of Chu, he is far inferior."

"Right, right, right. Marquis Lü Wen's foundation is still too shallow, and he is brave but not wise. The King of Chu is the emperor's brother, and he is also married to Jiangdong. Gan Ning, Taishi Ci, and even Jiangdong's Grand Commander Zhou Gongjin are now serving under the King of Chu. The King of Chu can mobilize all the Jiangdong soldiers and generals..."

"Uncle Liu of Bashu is his biological father. Who knows if Uncle Liu will come to his senses one day and give away Ba, Shu, Nanzhong, and Yizhou."

"The King of Chu's sworn brother, General Zhennan Wei Yan, can be said to be a famous general of the time, commanding the Jingbei Army..."

"Not to mention that he has a peerless warrior like Guan Chang guarding the area for him, and top counselors like Crouching Dragon and Phoenix, Lu Boyan, and Xu Shu..."

"Zhang Lu of Hanzhong has surrendered, and Ma Chao and Han Sui of Liangzhou have also surrendered..."

"After all, Xun Lingjun is loyal to the Han Dynasty. There is hope for the revival of the Han Dynasty. Maybe he is willing to help the King of Chu..."

"That makes sense, that makes sense! After all, given the friendship between Lord Xun and the King of Wei, there is no other reason except this one..."

"A talent that can assist the king, what a pity Xun Yu is!"

A carriage keeps arriving,
Whether they were Han ministers, Cao Mengde's men, or Liu Wu's men, they all came.

When Sima Yi arrived,
Chen Qun, Yang Xiu, Cheng Yu, and even the ruthless scholar Jia Xu had all arrived.

And with the arrival of another person, the atmosphere in the entire mourning hall seemed to reach its peak...

"Father?!" Yang Xiu was a little surprised.

It’s Yang Biao.

The Hongnong Yang family, on par with the Yuan family, is the only undisputed leader of the aristocratic family in the world today.

"Xun Lingjun, I'm here to see you..."

There were tears in Yang Biao's eyes.

Like him, Xun Yu was loyal to the Han Dynasty, but their approaches were different.

Yang Biao was a member of a great aristocratic family and would rather break than bend. No matter how weak and incompetent Liu Xie was, as long as the emperor gave the order, Yang Biao would take the lead to fight against Cao Cao, and his signature on the secret edict would be the first.

Therefore, he was badly tortured by Cao Cao and almost lost his life.

If Yang Biao had a lower status in the martial arts world, he would have been crushed to ashes by Cao Mengde long ago...

Xun Yu's way was to help Cao Mengde and help Cao Mengde pacify the world.

However, Cao Cao gradually changed. Once the ideas are different, disagreements are inevitable. Even if they have been together for decades, there will always be a day when they go their separate ways!
Boom! ~
The magnificent ceremonial procession speeds through the city of Xudu!
The King of Wei came again.

Cao Mengde stepped down from the carriage with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, entered the mansion with a sword in hand, and stepped into the mourning hall.

Afterwards, the mourning hall, filled with sorrow, fell into complete silence, and no one even dared to cry out loud...

A chill!

"Old friends are dying one after another..."

"As anxious as a leaf falling in the wind..."

"Wen Ruo." "Even you left me..."

"I'm here to see you off..."

The voice slowly rang out in the mourning hall.

No anger.

No grief.

No sarcasm.

No regrets.

There was only an extremely strong feeling that continued to ferment in the mourning hall.

It makes people feel lost and at a loss, as if history has turned over a heavy page, but the new chapter has not yet begun, so they can only review the old chapter.

Cao Mengde stood in the mourning hall for a long time.
Just as he turned around and was about to leave, an even more grand, majestic, and mighty procession rushed over from the imperial city like a torrent.

The emperor drives six.

The six horses pulling the carriage alone almost filled up the main road of Xudu...

The emperor's ceremonial procession stopped at Xun's mansion.

The Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, Zhuge Kongming, also arrived with the emperor and got off his private four-wheeled carriage.

Jian Yong and Zhao Yun also dismounted.

After Liu Xie got off the carriage, the three of them followed Liu Xie and walked into the mansion together.

"Greetings to Your Majesty!"

"Meet Your Majesty..."

Wherever he passed, people knelt down and bowed.

Without Liu Wu's support behind the scenes, others would also kneel down to Liu Xie, but that was only out of courtesy. Everyone knew that he was a puppet and no one had the slightest respect for him.

When Jian Yong, Zhuge Liang and Zhao Yun were behind him, it meant that the King of Chu was behind him, and that Liu Wu's huge power was behind him. In this way, Liu Xie was the real emperor, and people had to respect him.

Liu Xie entered the mourning hall...

"Greetings to Your Majesty!"

Even Cao Mengde had to bow his hands to show his respect.

As the two looked at each other,

Cao Mengde saw anger in Liu Xie's eyes. Xun Yu was one of the few Han ministers who was truly loyal to the Han Dynasty. Even after decades in Cao's camp, he never forgot his original intention. Obviously, Liu Xie was very angry that Cao Cao forced Xun Yu to death.

Liu Xie also saw anger in Cao Mengde's eyes. Xun Yu was Cao Mengde's best friend for decades and Cao Mengde's first meritorious official. Obviously, in Cao Cao's eyes, he had no choice but to do it. In fact, it was Liu Xie who forced Xun Yu to death...

Cao Mengde was very angry.

"My procession today is a bit larger, will the King of Wei be angry?"

Liu Xie said this.

Cao Cao!

I know you are angry.
But what can you do to me now?

I'm trying to steal your supporters, but what can you do to me?!
"I don't understand what the emperor is saying..." Cao Mengde responded with disdain.

What is the dog's name?
Who do you think you are?
It's just a fox taking advantage of the tiger's might...

However, what happened next caught Cao Mengde off guard, and shocked countless people gathered in the mourning hall...

Liu Xie walked around Cao Cao and came to Xun Yu's coffin. He tied a white cloth around the body of the emperor and began to cry: "Xun Yu, I have harmed you."

"It was I and Awu who harmed you..."

"Such a talented person as the king's assistant has fallen..."

As she cried, she laid on the coffin and said loudly: "Lord Xun died for me."

"I died for Takeru!"

"I died for the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty!"

"Xun Lingjun died because he was loyal to the Han Dynasty!!"

Countless important figures gathered here to witness the emperor weeping for his dead. They were shocked beyond words...

Cao Mengde was completely frightened.

The emperor cried for the dead, and he was destined to be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

　It’s too late now. I will make up the two chapters I owe tomorrow and won’t delay any further.
