"My mother has something to do and do her best to buy it!"

Seeing his stepmother Zheng bowing to him, the snow neck was half exposed and the fragrance was fragrant. Yuan Mai was slightly moved and hurriedly reached out to support Zheng Yu.

Zheng Yu took a deep breath and said: "Your father's condition seems hopeless to recover. The woman Liu's wife has shown a domineering attitude these days. If your father passed away, I still don't know how she treats us sisters..."

Yuan Mai's eyes turned and his thoughts were flying, and he didn't know how to answer Zheng's question.

If it were based on the natural development of history, the concubines of Yuan Shao's death would be extremely miserable. Not to mention that they were all killed by Liu, they were all covered with black and black faces after death, that is, the hair of the dead body was shaved and then smeared on their faces to destroy their image. It is said that this way, they would not be entangled by Ginto Soul after death.

"With Yuan Tan and I are outside, I wish they and my son dare not do anything randomly!" Yuan Mai comforted casually.

Zheng shook his head: "You are far away in Qing and two states, so it is useless. This shrew is cruel and bold. When your father is alive, he dares to act recklessly. If your father passed away, he still doesn't know what kind of vicious means he would treat our sisters..."

"If my mother is worried, why not follow me to take refuge in Bingzhou?"

Zheng smiled sadly: "Although my husband is seriously ill and unconscious, his breath still exists. How can I abandon him and cause scolding to the world?"

Yuan Mai thought about it again and said that Zheng Yu was very serious, Yuan Shao had not yet died. As a concubine, Zheng, was not serving beside the bed, but followed his stepson to Bingzhou to enjoy the blessing of the Qing Dynasty. I wonder what kind of rumors would be there when this matter was spread.

"My mother married into the Yuan family when she was seventeen years old, and she enjoyed all the wealth and wealth of brocade clothes and silk. She would have no regrets even if she died. The only thing I was worried about was A Ying. She also hoped that Mai'er would take her out of Yecheng for the sake of brother-sister relationship and take care of her for a long time. My mother let go of her heart, and then she would stay in Yecheng to take care of your father with all her heart, even if she died, she would not be afraid of death!"

Zheng Yu said tears and said, "I want to worship Yuan Mai again."

Yuan Mai hurriedly helped her again and said with a sigh: "Don't worry, A Ying and I were born to the same father, and we are with the same roots. We should do our best to take care of her and not let her suffer any pain!"

"Mother, I don't want to leave. Aying wants to stay with you!"

Nine-year-old A Ying already understood the truth. After listening to the conversation between her mother and her brother, she blinked her big clear eyes and begged pitifully.

Zheng Yu stood up and wiped the tears, stroked his daughter's little head and said, "Aying is obedient and follow her brother to Hanoi. If her mother is gone in the future, you must listen to your brother!"

The little girl was sensible. Seeing the sadness and desolate mother said, she stopped crying and nodded in a daze and said, "Okay, A Ying promised her mother and follow her brother to Hanoi, but her mother remembers to come to see me!"

"Well... my mother promised you!" Looking at her daughter's innocent eyes, Zheng nodded in tears again.

Yuan Mai sighed and patted Zhu Ling on the shoulder: "You take A Ying out of the back door, and then turn to the front door, where there are nearly 200 full armored knights waiting; this is my guard. If you show off the sword I gave you, they will know that you are your own people. If you take A Ying in the team, you will wait for me. A moment later. I will wait with Lord Ju Su!"

Zhu Ling is a young man, and she doesn't quite understand the joys and sorrows of the world, and she doesn't know how to be sad and sad. She heard that she was about to go out, and her excitement was beyond words. She agreed happily: "I took my luggage and left immediately!"

"Young Master is the lord of a state. Will you still lack your stuff?" Yuan Mai glared at Zhu Ling and scolded him repeatedly, "In order to avoid any trouble, don't bring any luggage. Go out immediately!"

"promise!"

When Zhu Ling saw the young master's expression serious, he did not dare to delay. He held a sword in one hand and held Yuan Ying in the other hand and walked towards the back door.

"Take care, Ah Ying is gone!"

The little girl was dragged by Zhu Ling and staggered a little, so she walked and turned her head to shout at Zheng. She gradually disappeared into the corridor in the beautiful woman's tears and disappeared completely.

Looking at the Zheng family who looked reluctant, Yuan Mai comforted softly: "Don't worry, my mother, I will take good care of A Ying. I have already told General Wen Chou to let him protect his mother's safety. If Liu is really crazy and harms her, you should beg General Wen for shelter and ask him to send someone to take you out of the city and go to Hanoi for shelter. Buy himself should treat him with his mother's courtesy!"

After hearing what Yuan Mai said, Zheng felt relieved and thanked him again: "Thank you Mai'er for your worries. Since this is the case, I will rely more on General Wen!"

"It has been delayed for a while. If you stay for a long time, it may arouse the alertness of Yuan Shang, Shen Pei and others. Mai said goodbye first, take care of my mother, and there will be a date later!"

Yuan Mai bent down and bowed to Zheng, then turned around and took big steps, leaving.

When they returned to the front yard, Ju Su, Wang Shuang, Zhu Ao, Zhou Cang and others were already waiting anxiously. They didn’t know what the young master was doing in the back yard alone, so why didn’t he come?

Yuan Shang was not worried much. Now the entire mansion is his own. Yuan paid a single sword and was not afraid that he would play any tricks.

"Haha... you have been waiting for a long time. When you return to your former residence for more than ten years, you can't help but think about it. So you're back a little late!" Yuan Mai walked into the living room and apologized with his fists.

Seeing Yuan Mai return safely, Ju Su and others were relieved. If they didn't return for a moment, Wang Shuang, Zhu Ao, Zhou Cang and others were all impatients and would have to break into the backyard to search.

After drinking another cup of tea, Yuan Mai stood up and said goodbye to Yuan Shang: "My father's condition is just like this for the time being. If it cannot improve for a while, it may not deteriorate; Bingzhou is busy with government affairs, so my younger brother decided to return to Jinyang, so my father asked his third brother to take care of him!"

No matter how long it is, there will be no result when staying in Jizhou, and at present, it will not be able to seize Yuan Shang's handle to use force; if the army is unknown, whoever raises troops first will inevitably be untenable in morality. It is better to take advantage of the unrest of Jizhou and Cao Cao's new defeat and his vitality has not recovered, and return to Bingzhou to do two most important things!

First, send troops to sweep Taihang, and the black bandits who were dead but not dead were completely expelled from Taihang to eliminate future troubles. Otherwise, when he and Cao Cao were in conflict in the future, Zhang Yan made a comeback in the back and stabbed him would inevitably make him feel uncomfortable.

Secondly, the Southern Xiongnu entrenched in Xihe was driven away from Bingzhou. If you use a Chinese character to describe the current Bingzhou, it would be a "concai", and Xihe County was the hole that was concave. At this moment, when Cao Cao's vitality was damaged and he had no time to look north, he concentrated his elite troops to drive away the Southern Xiongnu in one fell swoop.

"What my fourth brother said is very good. In a state, there is a busy official business. Just go back quickly. My father is taken care of by me!"

Yuan Mai was leaving, so Yuan Shang naturally couldn't ask for it.

He had already informed him of his inheritance of his father and lord in person. Since Yuan Mai did not object, he expressed his agreement. The rest of him would just deal with Yuan Tan alone. The most feared thing was that the Qingzhou soldiers and Bingzhou soldiers joined forces to attack him. After Yuan Mai left, the threat was reduced by half.

After saying goodbye to Yuan Shang, Yuan Mai took Ju Su and others to go out to meet with his entourage. Zhu Ling was already carrying Yuan Ying and hid among the guards, and did not answer. He turned over and led the team out of the city.

Seeing Yuan Mai and others returning safely, Zhang He was relieved: "If the young master doesn't return when it gets dark, some people will want to attack the city!"

"Haha... Fortunately, you are left behind by Zhang He. Even the mature and steady General Junyi can't sit still. If you keep the irritable Wang Ziquan, you are afraid you have ordered the attack on the city?" Yuan Mai patted Zhang He's shoulder and laughed loudly, "If that's the case, I'm afraid the situation will worsen. Maybe Yuan Shang really will attack me!"

The night is as cold as water, and it is even colder to sleep in the tent. Although it is already mid-March, it will still tremble when it is thin.

Yuan Ying was young and had always slept with her mother in the same bed. In desperation, Yuan Mai had to sleep with this nine-year-old loli sister, before coaxing her to fall asleep.

The next morning, when the morning light was just beginning to show, Yuan Mai wrote a letter to Yuan Tan, telling him that Bingzhou was busy with official business and that he was going to return temporarily, but in his heart, the only person he supported was the elder brother, please be sure to suppress Yuan Shang's arrogance.

After the letter was sent, he ordered the camp to go west, but the target was not Hanoi, but Jinyang, the political center of Bingzhou.

Jinyang is in the Xihe River and Taihang, and he must be in the hinterland, mobilize people and eliminate the two potential threats of Zhang Yan and the Southern Xiongnu; to clear away hidden dangers in the future with the Cao army, in order to be invincible.

As the team marched towards Jinyang, Yuan Mai made another adjustment to Hanoi's personnel arrangements with a big stroke.

He ordered Ju Su to take his letter to Hanoi to stay in charge, and jointly protect Hanoi with Zhao Yun stationed in Heyang, leaving Tian Chou and Liang Xi to assist him, and station 15,000 troops. In addition, Xu Sheng Navy, who was cruising on the Yellow River, could completely ensure the safety of Hanoi.

Nearly 10,000 people from Gaoshun were stationed on the front line in Hedong County west of Hanoi. Looking across the river from Cao's army on the south bank of the Yellow River, Jia Kui, the governor of Hedong County, was in charge. Not to mention that it was as solid as a matter of solidity, it was definitely not an easy task for Cao's army to enter the country.

After Ju Su arrived, he showed Yuan Mai's handwriting and ordered Zhang Liao and Guo Huai to lead 4,000 cavalry and 15,000 infantry to march north towards Jinyang. After arriving, he discussed strategies to attack the enemy.

Zhang Liao received the order and ordered Guo Huai to join forces to hand over the important defense task of Hanoi to Zhao Yun, and waved the flag to the north. Zhuge Jin, Ni Heng, Ma Jun and other talents of various colors followed the army north and went north to the administrative center in Bingzhou to perform their skills.
