Chapter 396

Huang Zhong shook the reins of the horse. Ce immediately stepped forward and asked, "What happened."

Since serving as Wang Lei's guard, Huang Zhong has performed conscientiously and carefully completed everything in detail. Huang Zhong followed Wang Lei and his family also went north with Pang Degong and others' families.

The scout reported: "The soldiers caught a man named Yan Xiang. They claimed to be the chief clerk of Yuan Shu. They asked to see Lord Zhou Mu."

"Check first. Then bring it here."

Huang Zhong ordered. Not long after, Yan Xiang, who had been inspected, came to Wang Lei.

Yan Xiang said, "I have met Lord Wang in the lower Yan Xiang."

Wang Lei rode on the war emperor and said, "The Lord Yan came here in person. Is there anything wrong?" When he headed south, Wang Lei met Yan Xiang in Shunyang County and directly confirmed Yan Xiang's identity.

Yan Xiang bowed and stood up and said, "I am here to pay homage to the Lord. I came with the sincerity of the lord."

Wang Lei asked, "What sincerity?"

Yan Xiang replied: "Yuan Shao sent his lord's clan uncle Yuan Hong to Nanyang County. He wanted to join forces with the lord."

Wang Lei's heart skipped a beat. Did Yuan Shao start to act? This time, the envoys, Qu, all the monsters and monsters came out. They all wanted to deal with him. Wang Lei smiled slightly and said slowly: "Yuan Hong formed an alliance with Yuan Shao and Yuan Prefect. Yan Zhuan came to see me on behalf of Yuan Prefect. I thought that Yuan Prefect had already made a decision."

Yan Xiang looked admiring and said, "Mr. Wang is indeed wise. The lord has trapped Yuan Hong in the inn in Wan County. As long as Lord Wang arrives in Wan County, he will hand Yuan Hong over to Lord Wang for disposal."

Wang Lei shook his head and said, "No. I won't go to Wan County."

Yan Xiang frowned and said, "My lord has handed over Yuan Hong to you for disposal. He has done his best. Does Lord Wang think that the sincerity given by the lord is not enough? Or, Lord Wang suspects that the lord is falsely spreading news. He wants to murder Lord Wang." Yan Xiang's tone showed a strong dissatisfaction. Yuan Shu even sold his uncle Yuan Hong. Wang Lei held a skeptical attitude, which was very unpleasant.

Wang Lei waved his hand and explained: "From Xiangyang north, pass by Zhuyang County, Qing County, then north to Shunyang County, Danshui County, and finally arrive at Wuguan and enter the boundary of Chang'an. If you change direction and go to Wan County, it will take a long time. This trip south to Qu'a has been delayed for countless hours. Now it is November again. It is approaching the end of the year. We must hurry up and return to Chang'an."

After hearing this, Yan Xiang's anger on his face was slightly relieved.

Wang Lei’s explanation makes sense.

From Xiangyang to Wuguan, you only need to go north. Wan County is located on the east side of Shunyang County. It is hundreds of miles apart. It is another ten days' trip. It is normal for Wang Lei not to go to Wan County.

Yan Xiang thought carefully and asked again soon: "I dare to ask you, how do you plan to deal with Yuan Hong."

With a slight change, Yan Xiang kicked the ball to Wang Lei.

Wang Lei said: "How to deal with Yuan Hong? It's Yuan Taishou's business. I think Yuan Taishou has a decision."

Wang Lei knows the meaning in Yan Xiang dialect very well.

When asking Wang Lei how to deal with it, it became Wang Lei's request. It was equivalent to the handling of Yuan Hong. Wang Lei had to owe Yuan Shu a favor. Even this matter had to be counted on Wang Lei's head. Yuan Shao and Wang Lei formed a hatred. Wang Lei kicked the ball back and let Yuan Shu decide by himself. It turned out that Yuan Shu killed Yuan Hong in order to please Wang Lei. It was Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu's affairs.

Yan Xiang's eyes were solemn. He said secretly that Wang Lei was not easy to deal with.

Thinking about it, Yan Xiang had an idea.

Yan Xiang did not give a definite answer. He said ambiguously: "No matter what the lord's final decision is, then the lord will definitely welcome Lord Wang in Shunyang County. Give Lord Wang a satisfactory answer."

Wang Lei nodded and said, "Let's wait and see."

"Goodbye." Yan Xiangdao.

Wang Lei clasped his fists and said, "Thank you to Master Yan to come and thank you for your prefect Yuan for me."

Yan Xiang completed the task and turned around and left immediately.

Gan Ning looked at Yan Xiang's departure back with a disdainful expression on his face and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Shu even betrayed his clan uncle. He was already afraid of being beaten by his lord. This is a waste. It's not worth worrying."

Lu Bu said coldly: "If Yuan Shu had sincerity and cut Yuan Hong's head and sent it over, wouldn't it be better?"

Dian Wei said: "General Lu's words are reasonable. It's better to chop off his head."

Zhou Tai had a serious expression and continued: "After all, Yuan Hong is Yuan Shu's clan uncle. Yuan Shu can make people come to inform him. It is already quite good. He gives him enough sincerity. However, Yuan Shu also has a ill intention. If the lord kills Yuan Hong, the conflict with Yuan Shao will be greater."

Wang Lei said with a smile: "No matter what Yuan Shu does, we can do our own thing. Go north as soon as possible."

The team set off and headed towards Shunyang County.

...

Wanxian. Station.

Yuan Hong had a gloomy face, and his eyes were flashing with rage. He traveled thousands of miles to Nanyang County to help Yuan Shao form an alliance with Yuan Shu. He wanted to use Yuan Shu's power to kill Wang Lei. Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu refused Yuan Shao's request on the spot. As soon as he returned to the post station, Yuan Shu had someone blocked the post station and detained him at the post station and was not allowed to leave. In this way, Yuan Hong understood the meaning of this.

Wang Lei’s arrival is his death date.

Yuan Hong was not a person willing to die. He calmed down and kept thinking about ways to get out. After making a decision, Yuan Hong called the accompanying warrior to the room and informed him of the next plan.

After saying that, Yuan Hong asked again: "Have you remembered all the plans clearly?"

"Sir, remember it clearly."

Warrior in the room. Answer immediately.

Yuan Hong nodded and said, "My life is entrusted to your hands; my lord's great cause is also handed over to your hands. If you can complete the task of killing Wang Lei, Yuan Shu would not dare to kill me. And my lord's great cause can be more smooth. If it fails, I will definitely die. My lord's great cause will also be affected."

"Don't worry, sir. We will complete the task to the death."

The warriors looked tense, and their eyes showed decisiveness.

Yuan Hong nodded and waved his hand and said, "Go out."

"Affect the order."

Everyone exited the room silently.

Yuan Hong's straight waist was bent, and his face was depressed. He sat alone in the room, waiting quietly. Time passed. At night, the lights were lit in the station. The lights were bright. Yuan Hong sat alone. The lights were reflected in his eyes. It seemed that a ball of fire was burning, revealing decisiveness and determination.

The thin hands trembled slightly and slowly stretched towards the swaying candlestick.

He grabbed it and Yuan Hong swallowed with a gulp. Then he threw the candlestick in his hand towards the bed.

The lamp oil splashed, and the bed burned quickly.

Soon, a raging fire appeared on the bed. An unparalleled heat spread throughout the room. The fire was raging. The rolling smoke continued to emerge. The fire spread quickly.

"Cough.Cough..."

Yuan Hong was choked by thick smoke and couldn't help coughing.

"It's on fire. It's on fire."

The soldiers in the inn discovered the fire and rushed towards the inn roared and wanted to put out the fire. The soldiers arranged by Yuan Shu in the surrounding area rushed in to put out the fire. However, when Yuan Hong's room caught fire, fires also lit up in the rest of the rooms.

Under the night, the fire at the station soared into the sky. The momentum was horrifying.

The entire station was in chaos. Only noisy sounds were heard constantly.
