Chapter 255
Soon, the news of Yuan Feng's death spread throughout Luoyang at a very fast speed, and then spread throughout the entire Great Han.
People who received the news had different reactions.
In the imperial palace,
"Hahaha! Hahaha!!"
The Son of Heaven Liu Hong received this news and couldn't help but laugh repeatedly. It took a while before he stopped, but his face was still full of smiles: "Tsk tsk! This old immortal Yuan Feng is finally dead!"
"Thinking that this old thing was so capable, in the end, wasn't he choked to death by an old phlegm?"
"This is retribution!"
"Letting you repeatedly target me, force me!"
"He deserved to die!"
Speaking of this, Liu Hong looked at Zhang Rang, who was also full of smiles on the side: "Rang-fu! This Yuan Feng is dead, tell me, can I let go and target and suppress the Yuan Fu, and take back part of the power?"
"Ah this..."
Zhang Rang was stunned, then shook his head with a bitter smile: "Son of Heaven! It is only Yuan Feng who died; don't forget, the Yuan Fu still has Yuan Wei, and the Yuan Fu's influence has not diminished at all because of this!"
Liu Hong frowned, and his smile faded: "Indeed!"
"Damn it! Why didn't this Yuan Wei go with his brother? It would save me from being annoyed."
"Hehe!"
Hearing Liu Hong's impulsive words, Zhang Rang also smiled and bowed: "Son of Heaven, actually you don't need to worry about the Yuan Fu's affairs at all!"
"Have you forgotten? Yesterday at the morning court, Yang Biao of the Yang clan already confronted the Yuan Fu!"
"Now, Yuan Feng is dead again, this old slave estimates that Yang Biao will definitely not let go of this opportunity to suppress and target the Yuan Fu;"
"Son of Heaven, you can completely sit and watch the situation, wait for Yang Biao to suppress and target the Yuan Fu!"
"You can just sit back and reap the benefits!"
As the dignified Son of Heaven, why bother to do these things yourself?
It loses status.
"This..."
Liu Hong nodded, but frowned: "The logic is there, but how do I know that after Yang Biao suppresses the Yuan Fu, they won't become the new Yuan Fu, continue to oppose me everywhere, and take power and benefits from me?"
If there is no Yuan Fu, but then another Yang clan comes, it makes no difference to him at all.
"This old slave thinks it's almost impossible!"
Zhang Rang analyzed immediately: "The Yang clan is different from the Yuan Fu, and Yang Biao is different from Yuan Feng and Yuan Wei;"
"Their Yang clan doesn't have as much ambition as the Yuan Fu, and through the generations, they have been relatively loyal to the Great Han and the Son of Heaven;"
"The Son of Heaven should know this."
Every family has its own way of survival.
Zhang Rang didn't really think the Yang clan was truly loyal to the Great Han.
They were just smarter, knowing how to suppress and restrain their own ambition.
Knowing when to stop, that's all.
"That's true!"
Sure enough, Liu Hong's face recovered its smile, and he nodded lightly: "Then let's watch the show first!"
At this time, in the Yang mansion,
"Haha! I didn't expect Yuan Feng, this old thing, to go so quickly. I thought I would have to wait another month?"
"This old thing wasn't angered to death by me, was he?"
Speaking of this, the smile on Yang Biao's face gradually faded, and he frowned: "It's best if it's not like that, otherwise, Yuan Wei and the Yuan Fu won't hate me to death?"
"Tsk tsk! Although I don't fear them, a crazy Yuan Fu is also very difficult to deal with!"
"It seems I have to keep a low profile for a while."
Anyway, he had already fought for the position of Administrator of Nanyang, and he wasn't prepared to make a move for the time being; keeping a low profile is also good.
As for Liu Hong's expectation of him fighting the Yuan Fu?
Yang Biao never had such a plan.
Fighting to the death, ending up with both sides suffering, and letting others benefit?
He is not stupid.
"It seems! I must go to the Yuan mansion to express my condolences immediately, show my attitude, and ease the relationship, so as not to let the Yuan Fu go crazy."
Yang Biao immediately made up his mind.
He didn't worry at all that Yuan Wei wouldn't be willing.
Because the Yuan Fu was also in need of stability at this time.
At the same time, Yuan Wei was not stupid, and he should know the bottom line of his Yang clan very well, and also know that fighting each other would not benefit either side.
No sooner said than done, Yang Biao immediately ordered people to prepare some gifts, got into a carriage, and rushed toward the Yuan mansion.
The straight-line distance from Wancheng to Luoyang was very close.
Regarding the result of his reward, before the imperial court envoy arrived, more than an hour later, Su Xuan already knew through the secret letter sent back by the golden eagle used by the secret guards.
"General of the South and Marquis of Jiangling, huh? Not bad! Just as I expected!"
After Su Xuan finished reading the letter, he was also overjoyed, then handed it to Seeing Xun You You and Guo Jia on the side: "You guys take a look too!"
Seeing Xun You You and Guo Jia immediately took the letter and read it quickly.
Then, they cupped their hands and congratulated Su Xuan: "Congratulations, My Lord!"
"Haha! Same to you! Same to you!"
Su Xuan laughed heartily, then asked: "However, I am not familiar with the new Administrator of Nanyang, Yang Xu. Gongda, Fengxiao, do you have any understanding?"
"What kind of person is this? Is it certain that he belongs to the Hongnong Yang clan faction?"
He flipped through his past-life memories and found that he really had no impression of this person.
Guo Jia shook his head directly: "I really don't know about this; my understanding of scholar-official clans is average. My Lord, you should ask Gongda! He should know."
Speaking of Guo Jia, in the past year or so, he had also grown a lot.
After being trained in the army for more than half a year and cultivating for more than half a year, he changed his past image of being weak and kidney-deficient.
His body began to become robust.
He also developed the good habit of cultivation.
Afterward, he exchanged for Confucian cultivation methods, Qi refining methods, and martial arts cultivation methods with loans.
After more than a year of cultivation, although his martial arts strength was only in the mid-stage of Mingjin, his Confucianism was already not inferior to Seeing Xun You You and the others.
His Qi refining path also had quite some achievements.
