Chapter 0286: The Unfilial One
February 188.
Peng Yu watched the last wave of troops pass through Tongguan, and hundreds of thousands of people passed through this place safely, and they only needed to walk for half a month to reach Chang'an.
When Peng Yu's army went to Chang'an, there were tens of thousands more people in the rear.
Of course, these tens of thousands of people were forced by the Dong family to flee Chang'an, and the people did not have any hope for Peng Yu, after all, since ancient times, officials and officials have protected each other, but Peng Yu issued a military order in front of the crying people, sent a large army to arrest the Dong family, and made the people full of confidence in this new Taishou.
When Xu You and his entourage took over Chang'an, they arrested all the officials in Chang'an who participated in the Dong family's wealth, and even killed hundreds of Dong family's relatives After the news was transmitted back to Tongguan and the people, the people rejoiced and threatened that Chang'an really wanted Chang'an!
In this way, the people and clans who were ready to flee from Chang'an naturally returned to Chang'an with Peng Yu.
"Report to the general, the army has all passed Tongguan, and most of the people have returned with the army, but there are still a small number of people who want to go to Luoyang, I don't know the general, what should I do?" The herald asked.
Guo Jia seemed to be somewhat interested in this, and immediately asked, "Oh, how many people are going to Luoyang?" ”
"There were about 4,000 people."
Peng Yu watched the army move forward slowly, and when he heard the conversation between the herald and Guo Jia, he said casually, "Since there are still some people who want to go to Luoyang, then let them go, and order Gao Shun to let them go." ”
"Yes, General."
Guo Jia laughed and said, "Although the general killed the Dong family, it seems that not everyone of the people is full of confidence in the general." ”
Hearing this, Peng Yu looked at Guo Jia and said angrily: "Lao Tzu is not a god, how can he be satisfied with everyone?" ”
Guo Jia watched many people go to Tongguan, and suddenly had an idea, and ordered the soldiers who were about to turn back to Gao Shun to give orders, "Bring these thousands of people here, I have something to ask them." ”
"Yes, Mr. Guo."
Peng Yu didn't know what Guo Jia was doing, but Guo Jia was not a mischievous person, so Peng Yu had to see if Guo Jia had something to ask these people.
Not long after, thousands of people were brought to Guo Jia, this group of people seemed to be scared of being killed by Dong Zhuo in Chang'an, and they were trembling with fear when they saw the officers and soldiers, just kneeling and begging for mercy, where did they dare to stand in front of Guo Jia?
Guo Jia persuaded for a long time, the people still couldn't stand on their knees, crying bitterly, Peng Yu was secretly funny, and was about to walk away, giving Guo Jia a headache, but suddenly heard Guo Jia shout, "Those who don't get up will be killed, those who don't reply to the question will be killed, and those who cry and weep will be killed!" ”
Guo Jia slashed three words, and the people were so frightened that they quickly stood up, but their faces were pale and crumbling, as if they would faint at any time.
Peng Yu frowned and looked at Guo Jia, these people are miserable enough, and he doesn't want to be the Taishou who oppresses the good people.
Guo Jia looked at everyone coldly and shouted, "Order, the people will prove their identities to each other according to a team of 200 people, so that they can get out of Tongguan, and those who can't prove their bodies will be brought to me to listen to the fate, but there are people surnamed Dong, and the people are also asked to expose each other, otherwise once someone exposes them, but you have not exposed, you will be punished as a traitor of the Dong family." ”
Peng Yu suddenly realized that Guo Jia was using this to prevent the Dong family from escaping from Chang'an, and under Guo Jia's order, the people were very relieved, knowing that this was because Peng Yu did not want to let go of the Dong family.
All of a sudden, thousands of people proved each other's identities, and it was reported that there were dozens of people from the Dong family hidden in the team that went to Luoyang.
After screening, the people who could prove their identities were all released by Peng Yu one by one, but there were still dozens of people who could not prove their identities, but no people came to testify against them, so it depends on Peng Yu's mood whether to kill or release.
According to Guo Jia's meaning, of course, all of them were beheaded, Peng Yu looked at these dozens of people, who seemed to be good citizens, and thought that since they were not proven to be thieves of the Dong family, then he couldn't kill them at will, so with a wave of his hand, they were all released.
The group hurriedly knelt down and thanked him, and was about to leave, but they heard Guo Jia shouting "slow".
Peng Yu frowned, thinking that Guo Jia was still going to kill, but found that Guo Jia seemed to be staring at one of them.
Peng Yu followed Guo Jia's eyes and found that there was a problem with this person.
It turned out that this man was wrapped in a shabby robe, and a yellowed hat was on his head, but his face was white and beardless, and his eyebrows were high.
Guo Jia stared at this person and sneered, "Where are you going?" ”
The man seemed to be a little panicked, and quickly knelt on the ground, "General Yu, the villain went to Wancheng to marry!" ”
Guo Jia looked up and down and snorted coldly: "I see that you are a member of the Dong family!" ”
The man looked at Guo Jia in horror and said loudly, "I am definitely not from the Dong family, otherwise why would no one identify me?" ”
Guo Jia sneered: "Who are you? Where do you live? Who else is in the family? ”
This man replied with sincere fear, "I am Li Xiaoru, I live in Chang'an Shang County, and there is still a widowed mother in the family......"
Guo Jia shouted: "Who can prove it? ”
Li Xiaoru was shocked, knowing that this person dressed as a scholar was afraid that he would kill himself, he immediately jumped up on the spot, looked back at thousands of people and shouted, "I am Li Xiaoru from Shang County, who knows me?" ”
Li Xiaoru asked three times in a row, but no one answered, Guo Jia sneered, and was ready to immediately order this person to be killed.
Li Xiaoru saw that no one had proved that he was not a member of the Dong family, and when he saw Guo Jia's murderous intentions, he knew that his life was hanging by a thread, and immediately shouted, "Who can prove that I, Li Xiaoru, am a member of the Dong family?" ”
Peng Yu and Guo Jia searched out dozens of people from the Dong family from the crowd, and cut them all in one breath in front of the people, although the people felt relieved, but they were also a little uneasy to see so many people killed in a row at close range.
Li Xiaoru asked three more questions, but still no one answered.
Li Xiaoru saw that no one had proved his identity, and immediately knelt on the ground to Peng Yu and said loudly, "General, I am really Li Xiaoru from Shang County, and I have nothing to do with the Dong family, the general doesn't believe it, you can immediately send someone back to investigate, if there is half a lie, Confucianism is willing to be cut by a thousand knives!" ”
Guo Jia's face was full of disbelief, and he was about to give the order to kill this person, but he didn't want a person in the crowd to cower and shout, "Big, big general, small, small can be proven." ”
Guo Jia frowned and looked at it, sighing in his heart, knowing that this Li Xiaoru could not be killed, because the person who spoke and answered, no matter how he looked at it, he was a timid and afraid person, and even Guo Jia stared at him, and this person almost fainted.
How dare such a person play tricks before Peng Yu?
Guo Jia frowned, his face was full of helplessness, but he scolded bitterly in his heart, why did a person who is as timid as a mouse come out to be a hero? But someone has already proved it, and Guo Jia is helpless.
Peng Yu saw that this person asked if he was a member of the Dong family among thousands of people, and so many people couldn't identify it, and he had already decided in his heart that this person was definitely not the Dong family, and he didn't want to kill him, but now someone finally came out to prove it, Peng Yu waved his hand, and let Li Xiaoru and thousands of other people go.
Peng Yu and Guo Jia fought forward, Guo Jia still seemed to be extremely uneasy about Li Xiaoru, and immediately ordered people to follow him from afar, to see where he went, and if he went to Hangu, he would be beheaded immediately.
Although Guo Jia gave the order, he didn't pay attention to this matter, and slowly went to Chang'an with Peng Yu.
……
After staying for half a day, the herald suddenly came to report, "Report to the general, Mr. Guo, I have been following for a long time, Li Xiaoru is indeed going in the direction of Wancheng." ”
The corners of Guo Jia's mouth twitched, looked at the herald and muttered, "Are you really following the line to investigate his whereabouts?" "I secretly said in my heart, this soldier is really honest, why won't he be killed directly?
Peng Yu waved his hand, the herald stepped back, and seeing Guo Jia so bent on getting rid of Li Xiaoru, he couldn't help but laugh when he thought of it.
Guo Jia was puzzled: "What is the general laughing at?" ”
Peng Yu said with a smile, "Li Xiaoru owes him a filial piety in his name, his widowed mother is in the hall, but he went to Wancheng to marry, what is this person's name Li Xiaoru, I think it's called Li Ru."
Guo Jia also laughed when he heard the explanation with Peng Yu.
Peng Yu was halfway through laughing, and suddenly he was smart, looking in the direction of Wancheng with a shocked face, and said in a lost voice, "Li Ru?!" ”
