Chapter 0266: Luoyang Chaos

Royal Palace, late at night, Hehuan Hall.

Liu Hong was frightened in the palace and could not sleep, lest Peng Yu really rebelled and led the troops into the palace, then the Liu family would be destroyed.

Liu Hong was even more secretly annoyed why he unknowingly granted Peng Yu such a great power, and once there was the slightest disturbance, he was helpless against it.

When Liu Hong thought carefully about Peng Yu's rise to prominence, Peng Yu's loyalty to the monarch and the country made Liu Hong seem to feel a lot more at ease, but the consciousness of an emperor reminded him all the time, I was helpless against him?!

Liu Hong's thinking collided left and right, and he was even more troubled by Peng Yu's gains and losses, and he was suspicious of the rebellion, although it was already the middle of the night, how could Liu Hong be able to sleep?

Just when Liu Hong was restless, Lu Qiang, who had been staying outside the hall, stepped into the hall.

Liu Hong was startled and immediately looked at Lu Qiang, but found that Lu Qiang's expression was quite calm, without showing any panic, Liu Hong secretly put his mind at ease.

Liu Hong looked at Lu Qiang and frowned, "Didn't I ask you to stay outside the palace, and you can't come to report if there is no major matter?" ”

Lu Qiang immediately knelt on the ground in fear, "Tell Your Majesty, it's not the servants who are here to disturb Your Majesty's rest, but the prince Liu Wei is here." ”

"Oh? What are you doing here? ”

Without waiting for Lu Qiang to answer, Liu Hong suddenly remembered that Liu Wei vouched for Peng Yu, and his face immediately changed greatly, and Liu Hong angrily scolded, "Hmph! So far, Liu Wei still dares to come to see me? ”

Liu Hong asked two sentences at the same time, Lu Qiang was a little difficult, how dare not answer His Majesty's question, but it seems that Liu Hong's tone is not good, and he doesn't know what to do for a while.

Just as Lu Qiang hesitated to answer Liu Hong's question, he heard Liu Hong shout angrily, "Since you are here, let him in, I want to see what else he has to say." ”

Lu Qiang was relieved, and immediately turned around and asked Liu Wei to enter the hall.

Liu Wei stepped into the hall and immediately knelt down to bow down, "The son knocks to see his father." ”

Liu Hong turned his back and asked angrily, "What are you doing here?" Could it be that he is here to vouch for Peng Yu again? ”

Liu Wei's face was pale and seemed to be a little scared, but his eyes revealed a determination.

After not hearing Liu Bian's words for a long time, Liu Hong turned around angrily, pointed at Liu Bian, and shouted, "Say!" What have you done here without being called? ”

Liu Wei was startled, he couldn't help but tremble, and he was extremely scared in his heart, but the firmness in his eyes did not give in.

Liu Hong's anger was about to explode, his eyes stared at Liu Wei, and he shouted, "Say! ”

Liu Wei was sweating profusely and trembling when he heard this, but he took a deep breath and said, "Erchen, the child is here to congratulate his father." ”

Liu Hong couldn't hold back his anger any longer, rushed forward and kicked Liu Biao to the ground, and angrily scolded Liu Bian for a bloody head.

Liu Hong's scolding lasted for a long time.

When Liu Hong was panting for scolding, he finally gradually calmed down, and looked at Liu Wei, although his face was pale and trembling, but there was some unconvincing in his eyes, and he still seemed to have something to say.

Liu Hong finally forcibly suppressed his anger, but Liu Hong was also a little curious, I don't know what joy Liu Wei came to say to him in the middle of the night, Liu Hong turned around and reprimanded, "What joy?" ”

Liu Wei watched Liu Hong turn around, took a deep breath, seemed to be no longer so scared, and said loudly: "Father, the child dares to ask his father three times, and after his father answers, he naturally understands where the joy is." ”

Liu Hong almost became angry again, turned around and stared at Liu Wei fiercely, but when he saw Liu Bian's face pale and holding the arm that had just been kicked by himself, and looking at him with concern, Liu Hong couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, turned around again, turned his back to Liu Bian, and said with a long sigh, "Ask." ”

Liu Wei said loudly, "Dare to ask my father, I don't know who has Peng Yu's soldiers and generals?" ”

mentioned Peng Yu and Liu Hong only felt angry, gritted his teeth, snorted coldly, and ignored Liu Wei.

Liu Wei asked again: "Dare to ask my father, I don't know who has Peng Yu who can fight well?" ”

Liu Hong's chest rose and fell, as if he was already angry, and he was just forcibly controlling his anger.

But Liu Wei didn't seem to see it, and said loudly, "Father, since no one has Peng Yu's soldiers and generals, and no one has Peng Yu who can fight well, then the child will congratulate his father, and his father can rest assured, Peng Yu must be a loyal minister, and he will never rebel." ”

Listening to Liu Wei's words, Liu Hong almost kicked again, but suddenly there seemed to be a trace of enlightenment in his heart, but he didn't fully understand what he realized when he was in a hurry.

Liu Hongqiang held back his anger and thought about it carefully, but he still couldn't figure it out, and couldn't help frowning and asked, "No one can compare to Peng Yu, how can this show that Peng Yu is a loyal minister?" ”

Liu Wei smiled bitterly and said, "Father, if Peng Yu rebels, how can the palace resist Peng Yu's army?" I'm afraid the palace has been taken by him for a long time. ”

"What!" Liu Hong was furious and stared at Liu Bian, as if he wanted to see something in Liu Bian's eyes.

But suddenly, Liu Hong seemed to understand, looked up at the outside of the hall, and found that it was already late at night, and the worry in his heart disappeared a lot.

Liu Hong said secretly, yes, Peng Yu's army is in hand, and he can fight well, how can the guards of the palace resist Peng Yu's iron army? Hundreds of thousands of the Yellow Turban army were easily defeated by him, and apart from Peng Yu's team, which other team could fight the Yellow Turban to get a good end?

Liu Hong suddenly realized, it turned out that whether Peng Yu rebelled or not, in fact, it had already been proved that Peng Yu had not rebelled late at night, otherwise how could Liu Hong stay in the Hehuan Hall safely?

After thinking about it like this, Liu Hongshen thought it was true, and he felt very reasonable, I am a fish, and he doesn't use a knife, which shows that this person doesn't want to eat fish.

Liu argued, "Father, this is enough to prove that Peng Yu's plan is not reversed. ”

Peng Yu really didn't fight, Liu Hong's expression finally eased, and he was about to make Liu Wei get up, but as an emperor, he was extremely dissatisfied that he had become a fish on the chopping board.

Liu Hong's face had just eased, but his anger rose again, and he couldn't help but snort coldly.

Liu Wei's face was full of bitterness, of course he knew why his father was angry, this Peng Yu actually made his father helpless, this is not as simple as a master.

But Liu Wei knows his own situation, since the Dong family took power, although he is the prince, and the queen mother is the queen of the dynasty, but these days are getting more and more difficult day by day, and it is even more difficult to ask to see his father.

Liu Wei stubbornly asked, "Father, the sons have the courage to ask their father again, what does the father want to do with Peng Yu?" ”

Liu Hong was really furious when he heard this, and said sharply, "This son can't be left behind whether he is against it or not, otherwise there will be a big disaster in the future. ”

Liu Wei was shocked when he heard this, jumped up on the spot in an instant, and said urgently, "Father, this matter must not be allowed, please think twice." ”

Liu Hong looked at Liu Wei with an anxious face, and couldn't help asking, "Why not?" ”

Liu Wei said loudly, "Father, Peng Yu did not rebel, but he was a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, if he was killed at will, it would be detrimental to his father's holy name." ”

Liu Hong was noncommittal, but his face was still murderous.

Liu Wei said again, "Father, there are still more than 200,000 yellow turbans outside Xingyang, which all rely on Peng Yu to suppress, and the tiger prison pass also depends on Peng Yu to guard, if Peng Yu is beheaded and the yellow turban is revived, who can stop the hundreds of thousands of yellow turban army?" At that time, there will be a catastrophe, please think twice. ”

Liu Hong was really moved by Liu Wei's words, yes, the one who destroyed the enemy outside the tiger prison was Peng Yu, and the prisoner was also Peng Yu, if Peng Yu was killed by himself, these people rebelled, what should they do?

Liu Wei continued, "Father, Peng Yu has a heavy army, although he is bold and reckless, he is loyal to His Majesty, he will not oppose today, and he will not oppose in the future. ”

"Hmph, loyal to me?" Liu Hong snorted coldly: "Bold? ”

Liu Hong shouted angrily with disapproval on his face: "If he is loyal to me, how can he lead the army back to the capital, and how can he kill dozens of ministers?" What is this audacity, it is completely bold! This man must not be kept."

Hearing this, Liu Wei was puzzled, "Father, I don't know how many troops Peng Yu led back?" As a general of Zhengdong, it is common for Peng Yu to have his own soldiers with him, and he killed dozens of ministers? But I don't know that those ministers were beheaded by Peng Yu? And why do you want to cut it? I don't know if my father can solve the doubts of his sons? ”

"This ......" Liu Hong was speechless for a while, and heard Dong Chong say that he led the army back, how many people Liu Hong knew, and killed dozens of ministers, where did Liu Hong know who it was.

Liu Hong suddenly woke up to what Peng Yu did, and he also listened to Dong Chong's words, and he didn't know anything about what Peng Yu did, especially Dong Chong's impeachment of Peng Yu for rebellion, but it turned out that Peng Yu did not rebel, I am afraid that there must be an inside story in this matter, and I am afraid that it will have to be investigated in detail.

Liu Wei looked at Liu Hong's face and knew that Liu Hong's murderous intent had passed, and said in his heart, "Father, there are many questions about Peng Yu, but Peng Yu must not be killed, otherwise there will be a big disaster." ”

In this way, Peng Yu's big matter was said by Liu Wei as if it was an unintentional move, but Liu Hong felt that it was very reasonable and difficult to refute. Liu Hong nodded slightly, "The emperor is going, and the father has to think twice." ”

"Obey the order, the retainers resign."

After seeing Liu Wei leave, Liu Hong thought carefully about what Liu Wei said, and found that what Liu Wei said was very reasonable, Peng Yu's return to Luoyang was recalled by his own decree, as for returning and leading the soldiers back, it is not a big deal for the general who killed the enemy on the battlefield, and he killed dozens of ministers, I am afraid that there must be an inside story, what is going on, I also believe Dong Chong's words, if you want to know what the inside story is, I am afraid you have to call to ask.

Liu Hong thought about it for a long time, thought about the whole thing again and again, and found that Peng Yu couldn't be killed, after Peng Yu was killed, who would lead the tens of thousands of troops? Is it handed over to Dong Chong, who lost 30,000 troops in the first battle?

And the most important thing is that Peng Yu has no objection to the army, if he rebels, Liu Hong has to admit that he is helpless against him, although this makes Liu Hong unhappy in his heart, it in turn proves that Peng Yu has no objection.

Liu Hong thought about it all night in the Hehuan Palace, and by the dawn of the day, he had already concluded in his heart that Peng Yu's rebellion had too many questions, and there must be inside information, even if it had to be killed, it must be killed after a detailed investigation, otherwise a catastrophe would be buried.

After Liu Hong thought about Peng Yu's matter clearly, he was relieved, let out a long breath, put his mind at ease, looked up at the outside of the hall, and found that it was already dawn, and his heart was much more relieved.

Liu Hong tidied up his clothes and shouted outside the hall, "Come on, go to the court!" ”
