On the morning of the second day, Jiang Feng and Cai Wenji brought gifts and came to the Zou Mansion.

From afar, I saw a group of soldiers escorting the prisoners out of the Zou Mansion.

The two glanced at each other, and a sense of foreboding arose in their hearts.

So the two of them did not get out of the carriage, but watched from a distance in the carriage.

After a while, Cai Wenji pointed at one of the prisoners and exclaimed, "That's Zou Kai!" ”

Jiang Feng had already guessed that Zou Kai should have had an accident, but he still felt cold in his heart, and said: "It seems that Cao Zhi has already attacked the Yulin Army, he is going to arrest all the forbidden troops in the imperial city in his own hands!" ”

Cai Wenji said: "What should we do now? ”

Jiang Feng sighed and said, "Let's go back first, and then think of other ways." ”

Losing Zou Kai's line, it is not easy to break into the army again.

Since he finished drinking that night, there has been no news from Xun Yu's side, as if he had never communicated with Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng had no better way but to make as many friends as possible.

Fortunately, he has a prominent status and a lot of power, but he has met a lot of fox friends and dog friends.

……

In the blink of an eye, it's the Cold Food Festival.

According to custom, the emperor would feast on hundreds of officials in the palace, eat dry food and drink cold water together.

The Cold Food Festival originated in the Jin Kingdom during the Spring and Autumn Period.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, Chong'er, the prince of the Jin Kingdom, fled abroad and had no food to eat, so he followed his Jie Zitui and did not hesitate to cut off a piece of meat from his leg to satisfy his hunger.

Later, Chong'er returned to the Jin Kingdom and became the monarch, that is, the famous Duke Wen of Jin.

Duke Wen of Jin rewarded the meritorious ministers, but Jie Zitui refused to be rewarded, and took his mother to live in seclusion in Mianshan, refusing to come out to meet.

Jin Wengong had nothing to do, so he had to order people to set fire to the mountain and force Jie Zi to push down the mountain.

Who knew that the mother and son would rather be burned to death than come out.

In order to commemorate Jie Zitui, Duke Wen of Jin ordered Mianshan to be renamed Jieshan, and built a temple and erected a monument; At the same time, it was also ordered that on the day of the death of Jie Zitui, cold food and fire would be banned, and the whole country was not allowed to burn the fire to cook, and could only eat dry food and cold food.

Later, gradually, the special commemorative festival of the Cold Food Festival was formed.

The Cold Food Festival has a kind of compassionate humanistic feelings, and the emperor convened hundreds of civil and military officials on this day to celebrate the festival, not to celebrate anything, but to promote the spirit of Jie Zitui for the monarch, fame and fortune, and do not hesitate to dedicate himself!

It's a pity that today's Son of Heaven is just a puppet.

The so-called Cold Food Festival is just a formality.

……

At noon, hundreds of civil and military officials celebrated the festival with Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty in the palace.

Cao Zhi's soldiers were guarding outside the palace gate, and poor Liu Xie couldn't even say a word of grievance to the ministers.

As for the evening, it wasn't much better.

Several of the concubines around Liu Xie are Cao Cao's daughters, and their every move, eating, drinking, and Lazar is closely monitored!

After eating, each of the hundred officials was rewarded with a set of cold food and clothing, and then the banquet dispersed.

Jiang Feng returned home sullenly, and saw Atiya and Xiao Qiao swinging there.

Xiao Qiao pulled Jiang Feng to swing together.

Atiya picked up the suit of clothes and said with a strange expression: "Husband, which girl gave you this?" ”

Jiang Feng said: "Don't wronged me, is your husband that kind of person!" ”

Xiao Qiao "giggled" and said, "That's it, I'll testify!" ”

Jiang Feng pinched her, and the flower branches pinched for her trembled, and then said: "This is the cold food and clothing rewarded by the emperor, which is used to warn us civil and military officials to learn to be thrifty." ”

"That's ......"

As she spoke, Attiya had unfolded her clothes.

At this time, she suddenly said "Huh" and said, "Husband, why is there a word on this dress?" ”

Jiang Feng didn't think much about it at the time, and said casually: "What word?" ”

Atiya directly pulled off the belt, handed it to Jiang Feng and said, "Husband, look at it yourself!" ”

Jiang Feng looked down and saw that it was true.

I saw that inside this belt, there were dense writings, and I couldn't help but read along!

"I have heard that the people are great, and the father and son come first; The difference between respect and humility, the monarch and the minister are the most important. The nearest powerful ministers are thieves, from the cabinet gate, and they are guilty of deception. link up the party and corrupt the government; Rewarding and punishing is not a blessing. I want to call myself the Duke of Wei and replace him. Worried all night, I am afraid that the world will be in danger. Qing is after the Yellow Gate, the pillar of the country, can remember the difficulties of Emperor Gao's entrepreneurship, entangled the martyrs of both loyalty and righteousness, annihilated the traitorous party, restored the society, and eliminated violence before it sprouted, and the ancestors were very fortunate! Panic broke the fingers, wrote the edict to Fu Qing, and then be cautious, don't let it be negative! The edict of March in the spring of the eighth year of Jian'an. ”

Behind the text, there is a blood mark.

After reading it, Jiang Feng's heart moved, and he said, "Isn't this the legendary edict of the cloth belt?" ”

Atiya said: "Husband, what is the edict of the cloth?" ”

Jiang Feng explained: "The edict is a blood letter from the emperor to his close ministers, ordering his uncle Dong Cheng, and the prince of the Ministry of Works, the captain of Changshui, Wu Shuo, the general of Zhaoxin, Ma Teng, the Taishou Ma Teng of Xiliang, Ji Ping, and Liu Bei, the general of Zuo, to conspire to get rid of Cao Cao. ”

Attiyah said, "What happened later? ”

Jiang Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Later, the matter was revealed, Dong Cheng and the others were all beheaded by the whole family, and the three clans were connected; Even Concubine Dong, who was five months pregnant, was not spared, and was rushed into the harem by Cao Cao with a sword and killed in front of the emperor with his own hands! ”

"Ah......h

Hearing this, Atiya and Little Joe exclaimed at the same time, obviously frightened.

Jiang Feng said: "Of the people who received the edict back then, it seems that only Ma Teng and Liu Bei escaped. ”

Feeling the importance of the matter, Xiao Qiao didn't have the heart to swing, so he hurriedly surrounded him and said, "Feng Feng, then what should we do now?" Will Cao Cao do anything to us? ”

Jiang Feng said: "Don't be afraid, this edict may be a turning point for us, not a hot potato!" ”

Xiao Qiao said: "What machine? How to turn? ”

Jiang Feng said: "The edict incident was broken back then, all because someone told me in the middle. With the experience of the last failure, His Majesty will definitely be very careful in selecting candidates this time. Therefore, the people who can receive the edict this time must be the same as us, and they all have a lot of complaints about Cao Cao. Moreover, Cao Cao is currently far away in Yecheng, and the whip is beyond his reach, even if the matter is revealed, it will not reach the point of exhaustion in a short time. On the contrary, with the edict of the cloth belt, we have a force to be reckoned with in the dark, and if we can use this power, we may be able to escape from Xudu. ”

Xiao Qiao thoughtfully, nodded frequently, and said, "I see!" ”

Attiya said: "But this is just an edict, how can we contact other people?" ”

Jiang Feng said: "Don't worry, in the next few days, someone will definitely take the initiative to come to us!" ”

After a pause, he said to himself: "I think it should be Xun Yu." ”

……

Jiang Feng didn't guess wrong.

That night, Xun Yu sent someone to send a secret letter, asking Jiang Feng to take his clothes and edict early tomorrow morning and go to the imperial tomb to worship his ancestors.

Tomorrow is the Qingming Festival, Jiang Feng thought, it would be a good choice to go to the imperial mausoleum secret meeting, and it should not be found out by anyone. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
