Chapter 430: Cao Cao's Death(1/2)
"That's good. After I leave, you and Ziyi should assist the Crown Prince. I'll leave everything to you."
Cao Cao held Xun Yu's hand and said sincerely.
"Please rest assured, King Wei, my subordinates will do their best to show their allegiance to chastity and die!"
Xun Yu burst into tears and said.
After chatting with Xun Yu, Cao Cao called Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others forward in turn.
By the time he talked to everyone, his face had turned pale and his breath was disordered.
"lady……"
Cao Cao called Mrs. Ding and other wives and concubines to him again, and said with a wry smile,
"My biggest regret is that I couldn't see Zixiu succeed me. But I'm going to meet him soon, so I have no regrets."
"But after I go, what will you and the others do?"
"I also ask Madam to distribute the incense to all the ladies and not to use it for sacrifice. If the people in each house have nothing to do, they can learn to make belts and sell shoes."
After hearing this, Mrs. Ding burst into tears and just held his hand.
"Husband..."
Yang Ling stood aside, listening to Cao Cao's instructions to Mrs. Ding, and couldn't help but feel filled with emotion.
Although Boss Cao is lecherous and likes to seize wives, he has to admit that he is also a kind and righteous person.
Until his death, he was still thinking about his wives and concubines.
After giving instructions to Mrs. Ding and others, Cao Cao looked at everyone again,
"Today's fate has not yet been decided. After the death of Gu Gu, officials from all places will abide by their duties and border guards will not leave their posts. Don't make a big show of it and keep everything simple."
After saying this, Cao Cao was already extremely exhausted.
He glanced at Yang Ling one last time, his eyes full of expectation.
Yang Ling instantly understood what he meant and said solemnly,
"Please rest assured, King Wei, my subordinates will assist the Crown Prince to unify the world and end this troubled times!"
Cao Cao smiled happily and slowly closed his eyes.
A generation of heroes suddenly passed away!
"The King of Wei has passed away..."
For a while, there was a cry in the lobby.
Yang Ling's eyes heated up, and tears filled them involuntarily.
He quietly retreated, came to the tearful Cao Qing, and gently held her hand.
The couple looked at each other speechlessly!
After a while, everyone in the hall calmed down a little.
Yang Ling, Xun Yu and others who were appointed by Cao Cao to be in charge of Cao Pi also began to organize Cao Cao's future generations.
By the time the mourning hall was erected, the sky was already turning white.
"Xun Lingjun, Fengxiao, Wenhe and the other gentlemen have already stayed up all night. Why don't you go back and rest first?"
Yang Ling walked to Xun Yu and said softly.
"What will happen here if we go back?"
Xun Yu rubbed his forehead and said a little tiredly.
"Just leave this to me."
Yang Ling smiled.
"How can that be done? Ziyi, you came back from Jiangling. I'm afraid you haven't had a good rest yet, right?"
Guo Jia was genuinely concerned.
"Don't worry, my body can handle it. Besides, the prince should be back in less than two days."
Yang Ling waved his hands and said.
Xun Yu and Jia Xu were old, and Guo Jia had always been in poor health.
If they were allowed to continue to stay here, they would soon follow Cao Cao.
Yang Ling is younger and has Qi refining skills, so it won't be a big deal if he stays up for a few days.
Seeing that he insisted on doing this, Xun Yu and others were indeed tired, so they stopped insisting and got up and left.
After everyone dispersed and there was no one else in the hall, Yang Ling let out a long breath.
He came to Cao Cao's tomb and respectfully laid a stick of incense.
Boss Cao, just go with peace of mind!
At this moment, slight footsteps suddenly came from outside.
Yang Ling turned around and saw Gao Rou walking in.
"I've met the general."
"Wen Hui doesn't need to be polite."
"My subordinates knew that the general had not yet eaten, so he came to deliver some meals and also offered incense sticks for the King of Wei."
Gao Rou explained.
"Wen Hui is thoughtful."
Yang Ling smiled and praised.
After offering incense to Cao Cao, Yang Ling took the food box and took Gao Rou to the side hall.
Seeing no one around, Gao Rou whispered,
"The Crown Prince will be back soon. What do you think, General?"
Yang Ling, who was having a meal, felt something in his heart and stopped moving his hands.
When Cao Cao was seriously ill, since he sent someone to notify Yang Ling, it was impossible that he didn't send someone to tell Cao Pi.
But it seemed that Cao Pi was delayed on the road.
Otherwise, with his character, he would not have arrived today.
Nowadays, the civil officials in the city are headed by Xun Yu and Guo Jia, all of whom are on good terms with Yang Ling.
As for Dian Wei and Xu Chu, who served as the leader of the Central Army, the Central Protector of the Army, and were in charge of the Forbidden Army, they were Yang Ling's sworn brothers.
In this case, as long as Yang Ling is willing, he can take control of the entire Xudu!
"I don't have much idea."
Yang Ling smiled faintly.
He naturally understood what Gao Rou meant.
It's just that Cao Cao loved him very much and married his four daughters to him one after another.
Before he died, Cao Cao even held his hand and told him that if Cao Pi was not virtuous, you could support other descendants of the Cao family.
Under such circumstances, if Yang Ling did anything strange, everyone in the world would scold him!
After following Yang Ling for so long, Gao Rou naturally understands that he is a determined person.
Once you make up your mind, you won't change it.
Gao Rou could only sigh and remain silent.
After breakfast, Yang Ling closed his eyes and rested his mind in the side hall for a while, then started busy again.
The death of Cao Cao, the king of Wei, was no small matter.
All the civil and military officials from the DPRK came to express their condolences one after another. Soon, even the Emperor Liu Xie and his Queen Fu Shou arrived in person.
Looking at Cao Cao's magic tablet, Liu Xie's eyes were quite complicated.
Although Cao Cao controlled the government and killed many veterans who were loyal to the Han Dynasty, in the final analysis, he was still respected as an emperor.
Now that Cao Cao is dead, he doesn't know what Cao Pi will do to him after he succeeds to the throne.
"It is really a pity that the King of Wei passed away. Nowadays, all important matters in the court depend on the general who conquers the east."
Liu Xie pretended to be authentic.
"Your Majesty, you're welcome. This is just my duty."
Yang Ling also said softly, but his eyes drifted towards Fu Shou beside Liu Xie.
It had been a long time since he had been intimate with Yang Ling, and Fu Shou's beautiful eyes were full of affection.
This scene was naturally seen by Liu Xie, who was so angry that he was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do.
