In the early morning, there was a gentle green smoke on the old ground of Cui's Mansion, and a fire burned most of Cui's Mansion to ashes.

The cry in his ears shook the sky, and Cui Fu 200 and the people, including Cui Lie, survived on May Day, and they all became Ma Yue's substitute ghosts.

The old third father, who kept saying that he didn't want to have anything to do with people like him, died in his mansion to save himself.

Cui Jun's grief was beyond words, and Ma Yue couldn't bear to disturb him at this time.

There were too many changes in the palace last night, Pei Ruo, who was covered in blood, stood beside Ma Yue, and he brought the news of Jian Shuo's assassination in the fourth watch, all of which was terrible for Ma Yue.

Personal feelings aside, he lost the biggest help in the palace last night.

He Miao was tied up in the backyard, the Changshui army besieged Cui's Mansion for two hours, and at sunrise tore down the courtyard wall, and He Miao's entourage inside was slaughtered, leaving only such an evil leader, Ma Yue has decided to execute the car crack in the south of the city at noon today.

This will be the only relative of the Han Dynasty in the four hundred years who has been split by the car.

Ma Yue was half-draped in a linen robe, wearing the broken set of crotch armor underneath, the armor buckle of the upper body was open, the boiled white cloth was wrapped around the shoulder, the knife was deep and the bone was visible, the wound on the wrist was not yet complete, and there was a serious injury on the shoulder.

Ma Yue stood at the gate of Cui's mansion, and there was still half an hour before the beginning of the dynasty, and he was waiting, waiting for Yan Xing's return.

Zhang Feng stood behind him, wanting to open his mouth several times but lowering his head, he didn't know what Ma Yue would think of him, and he didn't know what his father and son would face.

"So, you betrayed your father to save my life?" Although Ma Yue's words were gentle, his heart was cold, thinking that he would have to find a few more companions for He Miao on the Huangquan Road during the execution in the south of the city at noon today, "I want to thank you very much." ”

Ma Yue didn't look back, Zhang Feng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, there was no one beside the two, he knew that Ma Yue was saying this to him, so he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Guangluxun, I, I'm not here to report to you." ”

"Oh?" Ma Yue turned his head and asked Zhang Feng with interest, "Then why do you want to report the news?" ”

"The villain is to save his father, and the adults should not participate in this assassination, nor do they want to participate in this assassination, but after all, they can't refute the plans of the other permanent servants. The villain sent a message to Captain Yan that he betrayed his father in order to save him, and hoped that you would not execute Zhang Changshi. In the early morning, there were already servants who got up early in the morning and walked around, all far bypassing the Cui Mansion defended by armor, Zhang Feng said and knelt on the ground and said to Ma Yue regardless of the eyes of others: "The villain is willing to give everything, I just ask you to forgive Zhang Changshi." ”

Hearing this, Ma Yue glanced at Zhang Feng, who was kneeling in front of him, and sighed, but he still turned around and said: "Zhang Feng, don't beg me, the whole world is shouting and shouting at the ten permanent servants, and now they are doing such a thing, implicating more than 200 unjust souls of Cui Gongmanmen, and they must not be killed!" ”

"Jun Hao, Jun Hao, I beg you, I beg you! He...... He was also confused for a while, you know him, how could he want to kill you! Ma Yue's words were like a bolt from the blue for Zhang Feng, kneeling down and taking two steps forward, he grabbed the corner of Ma Yue's clothes and said: "If you must kill someone, let me die on his behalf, kill me, kill me!" ”

"Zhang Feng, hurry up, what does the dignified imperial doctor make you look like when you kneel here, can things change when they come to this point? Gong Cui is dead, Captain Jian is dead, you are just his fake son, there is no need to be like this, I won't hurt a bit, get up quickly! ”

"Nope! Please Guangluxun save my father, now you are the only one in the world who can kill him, and you are the only one who can save him. Although Zhang Feng is stubborn, he knows this truth, Guangluxun, I only ask you to spare my father's life, that is, to make Zhang Feng a cow and a horse! Zhang Feng actually got up on the ground as he spoke, and the sound of Niu Mu came out of his mouth, "Look, I will make you a cow for fun, you forgive him!" ”

Ma Yue and Zhang Feng have been friends for several years, always anxious, several times injured and sick are Zhang Feng personally treated, it can be said that Zhang Feng is his Ma Yue's life-saving benefactor, he has seen Zhang Feng drink too much wine and tear his clothes shirtless and dance shirtless at the banquet, and he has also seen the appearance of talking about medical classics with his eyes shining, but how can he bear the absurd appearance of his friend in such a large public?

At this moment, a group of cavalry galloped over on the long street, Yan Xing turned over with an iron spear and said: "Guangluxun, Zhao Yan, the captain of the city gate, fled from the city last night, and the Cheqi Mansion was burned down, leaving no one alive. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Zhang Feng and asked in a low voice, "This, what's wrong with the Imperial Doctor's order?" ”

Without waiting for Ma Yue to answer, Zhang Feng knelt down in front of Yan Xing and dragged Yan Xing's armor and said, "Captain Yan, Guangluxun values you the most, you help me intercede, help me!" ”

"Okay, Zhang Feng, you get up for me!" Ma Yue was already full of anger when he closed his eyes and opened them again, and took two steps forward to lift Zhang Feng up and throw him to the ground, pointing at him and saying, "I forgive him, get up, don't be this ridiculous look again!" ”

"Ahh Thank you Guangluxun, thank you Guangluxun! Zhang Feng couldn't stop kowtowing, Ma Yue, who listened to the sound of the clang, couldn't bear it, seeing that the ground was soaked in blood, Ma Yue no longer looked at Zhang Feng, stepped on the horse with his hands behind his back and said to Yan Xing: "Take He Miao back to the palace!" ”

"No!" Yan Xing also crossed the kowtowing Zhang Feng and entered the mansion, but after a while, he led the Changshui sergeant to rush to the palace with He Miao, who was tied up with five flowers.

After Ma Yue left, Zhang Feng still kept kowtowing in the direction of the palace, and when he raised his head again, his face was covered with blood, and he wanted to laugh but cried out with relief, leaning on the threshold of the burned Cui Mansion covered in mud, and howling.

Morning meeting.

Ma Yue changed into clean court clothes, and only stood in front of the main hall with a straight back, leading the courtiers as if nothing had happened last night, so that every minister who participated in the court meeting could see that he was in good spirits.

This makes people can't help but be surprised, the city of Luoyang is different from others, as long as it is related to the majestic palace, even if it is small, it can be transmitted to the ears of those who should know it in the shortest possible time through the ears and eyes all over it.

And few of the people who participated in the court meeting did not know what happened last night.

Cao Cao walked up to Ma Yue and asked Ma Yue, "San Lang, I heard that you were assassinated last night, looking at your current appearance, it should be fine, right?" ”

"There is Brother Lao Mengde." Ma Yue nodded lightly and smiled: "There are many capable people in the world, and they almost lost their lives." ”

As he spoke, Ma Yue's gaze crossed Cao Cao, and he saw Yuan Shao and a group of young people at the beginning of the palace gate hussar general Dong Chong laughing all the way, and the smile on his face froze.

"Jun Hao, what's wrong?" Cao Cao noticed the strangeness on Ma Yue's face, followed Ma Yue's gaze, and hurriedly saw Yuan Shao and his party being pulled into the hall by Ma Yue, Ma Yue said: "Let's go, Brother Mengde, it's time to start the court." ”

Although he was dragged away by Ma Yue, Cao Cao had the same doubts in his heart. 'Why did Ben Chu get together with Dong Zhong again? ’

All this came unexpectedly, and Ma Yue suddenly didn't want to execute He Miao.

If He Miao is still there, he and Dong Zhong still have common enemies in the court, and they can obtain a strong alliance in a short period of time, and enough time for Ma Yue to extend his tentacles to all parts of the imperial city. But now He Miao is about to die...... If there is only such a relative and Ma Yue, the auxiliary minister, left in the court.

What the final result will be, it seems to be self-evident.

Xiao Liu Xie, who was wearing a nine-tie crown, and Empress Dowager Dong sat upright in the main hall under the guidance of the little eunuch, and had already taken two steps towards Xiao Liu Xie, looking at Ma Yue who was about to go down the steps but paused, he was stunned for a moment before sitting back and coughing embarrassedly, beckoning and asking: "Guangluxun, I heard that you were assassinated last night, is there such a thing?" ”

The little emperor wanted to go down the ninth-level jade step to see if he was okay, and the stopped action said that the young emperor's reliance. Ma Yue did not give up his hand at all and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the minister was indeed assassinated yesterday, the assassin was the general He Miao, the captain of the military academy Jian Shuo was assassinated in the palace, and the minister was deceived out of the palace at that time. ”

"Ahh With such news, the Empress Dowager Dong behind the bead curtain knew about it earlier, but she still gasped, not to mention those courtiers.

"Your Majesty, you have to make decisions for Duke Cui!"

"Cui Gong's injustice!"

The courtiers boiled all of a sudden, and many of the protégés of the old man's mansion cried out in the main hall, Ma Yue slowly raised a hand and continued: "The minister has ascertained that in addition to He Miao, the conspirators are Zhao Zhong, Xia Yun, Sun Zhang, Bi Lan, Li Song, Duan Qi, Zhang Gong, Han Kui and others, please punish them for their crimes, murder Jiuqing and the captain of the military academy who controls the soldiers and horses, and be severely punished for beheading the family and exterminating the clan!" ”

Before Ma Yue finished speaking, the staff of the General's Mansion had already knelt in the hall and said loudly: "Your Majesty, He Miao is just confused for a while, just execute one person, the general He Jin is dead, why kill them all, please be merciful Your Majesty!" ”

"Your Majesty, please be gracious!"

"Your Majesty, when the soldiers surrounded the Cheqi Mansion, the Cheqi Mansion resisted stubbornly and clashed with the Changshui Battalion. So......" Ma Yue didn't look back at them, he knew that it was just Yuan Shao and other people in the shogunate, he bowed his head and bowed his hand, and said to the Son of Heaven in the court word by word: "Please punish Your Majesty, the Cheqi Mansion has been razed to the ground by the ministers." ”

"What!"

Yuan Shao was lying on his back, almost trembling all over, although he had known that He Miao was going to assassinate Ma Yue, although he had known that He Miao might not be able to kill Ma Yue, although he had already known...... But he still underestimated Ma Yue's viciousness.

Level to the ground.

The four words smashed like a hammer on the hearts of all the people who didn't like Ma Yue in the court, and behind the four words was Ma Yue's monstrous hatred for this matter.

"Guangluxun is not guilty, how can he be punished?" The voice of the Empress Dowager Dong came from behind the bead curtain, "The conspiracy to kill the court ministers should be this end!" What do you think of the conspirator Guang Luxun? ”

"Thank you for the magnanimity of the Empress Dowager and Your Majesty." Ma Yue glanced up at Xiao Liu Xie, and said: "Although Zhang Rang did not participate in it, as the head of the eunuchs, he failed to find out in advance that he was demoted to a concubine, and those conspirators and ministers have ordered people to arrest them, and they will be executed in the south of the city at noon today." As well as the matter after the death of Duke Cui, please ask Your Majesty to bury him with the courtesy of the prince, is it okay? ”

This time, there was silence in the court.
