Chapter 322

~3 min read 510 words

Yuan Shao was not worried that Yuan Kui and the others would leave Luoyang.

Because that was impossible.

His uncle and eldest brother would never be willing to give up the power and status they held here in Luoyang.

They still wanted to continue struggling for a while longer.

Yuan Shao decided to indulge them.

Yuan Kui did not know what Yuan Shao was thinking; instead, he looked at Yuan Shu and said, "Gonglu! I will leave Nanyang to you!"

"It just so happens that the previous Administrator of Nanyang was transferred to Luoyang to take up a post a few days ago;"

"Because the late Emperor passed away, the position of Administrator of Nanyang has remained vacant;"

"Once the chaos subsides, I will submit a memorial to recommend you as the Administrator of Nanyang;"

"Plus, the Runan side will also fully support you;"

"I hope you can use Nanyang as a springboard to build up your strength and wait for the right moment, do you understand?"

"Hehe! Understood!"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Shu was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed in thanks.

At the end, he even provocatively raised his eyebrows at Yuan Shao.

It was as if he were saying, "See? Uncle still values me more; he even handed such an important position as Nanyang to me!"

"He even had the old home in Runan fully support me. What do you, Yuan Benchu, have to compare with me?"

"Crack!"

Seeing this look of a petty man drunk on success, Yuan Shao, despite having anticipated it, was still so angry that his teeth itched. He clenched his fists, holding back from punching Yuan Shu in the face.

"Oh, right!"

At this moment, Yuan Kui further instructed Yuan Shu: "That Administrator of Changsha, Sun Jian, is one of our people; he is a nail we have planted in Jingzhou;"

"Originally, he was meant to keep Su Xuan in check;"

"But now he is temporarily of no use, and we cannot spare the attention for Su Xuan anyway!"

"After you go to Nanyang, send someone to order him to bring his troops, money, and grain from Changsha to Nanyang to assist you!"

"This Sun Jian is a fierce tiger, capable in battle; I hope you can handle him well, preferably by completely winning him over;"

"If you do, he will inevitably become a great help to you, do you understand?"

In truth, Yuan Kui was still somewhat worried about whether Yuan Shu could tame a fierce tiger like Sun Jian.

He knew very well exactly how much ability Yuan Shu possessed.

But he could not possibly hand Sun Jian over to Yuan Shao.

If he did, Yuan Shao's strength would increase significantly.

"Understood! I understand! I will handle him!"

Yuan Shu replied happily.

Then, he triumphantly tilted his chin at Yuan Shao again, showing off.

Yuan Shao sneered inwardly: "Stupid! How could a straw bag like you tame Sun Jian? I'll be waiting to see the scene where you are bitten back by him! Hehe!"

...... Roar.
