As Kang Peng imagined, Hua Xin's temperament is very similar to Jia Xu, elegant and clear with a hint of evil, but his delicate appearance gives people a feeling of coldness, even if he has just been brought to the official hall from prison, Hua Xin's expression has not fluctuated in the slightest, it is still the same ancient well, and he is truly pampered and not shocked.

"Who is standing in the hall?" In front of Dong Zhuojun's civil and military forces and Jingzhou Shilin officials, Kang Peng deliberately asked Hua Xin with a straight face, as if he looked down on Hua Xin, and Dong Zhuojun and the newly surrendered Kang Peng's Jingzhou officials looked at each other, and they didn't understand what Kang Peng meant, it stands to reason that Hua Xin was the first official in Jingzhou to suggest that Liu Biao surrender to Dong Zhuojun, and the first Jingzhou official Dong Boss wanted to find after entering the city was also Hua Xin, which proved that Dong Boss admired or liked Hua Xin very much, and he should reuse the reward, but now the hall is full of people have seats, Only Hua Xin was handcuffed in front of the court, what does this mean?

"Returning to the Taishi, in Xia Hua Xin Huazi Fish." In the face of Boss Dong's intimidation, Hua Xin remained silent, bowed slightly, and replied politely: "Hua Xin has seen the Taishi, please say hello to the Taishi." ”

"Hua Xin!" Kang Peng gritted his teeth and squeezed out these two words from between his teeth, and his fat hand suddenly slapped the table in front of him, shaking the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone flying sideways, startling everyone, and shouting in a broken voice: "Hua Xin, are you guilty?" The sound was so loud that everyone's eardrums buzzed, and almost everyone had a thought in their hearts - Hua Xin was dead!

Hua Xin was slightly surprised, hugged his fists and said: "Back to the Taishi, the villain doesn't know what crime he has committed, please ask the Taishi for guidance." ”

"My stepfather says you are guilty, and you are guilty!" Lu Bu shouted first, and wanted to jump up to tear Hua Xin, but was stopped by Jia Xu, who said in a low voice: "Wen Hou, listen to what the Taishi says." "To tell the truth, Jia Xu didn't know what medicine was sold in Kang Peng's gourd, when Xiangyang City was not breached, he shouted to see Hua Xin, and when he saw someone, he shouted at Hua Xin to kill, Rao is Jia Xu is old and sophisticated, and he doesn't know what kind of famous Kang Peng wants to play.

"Very well, I tell you." Kang Peng gritted his teeth and said: "In the past, when the prime minister fought the tiger prison, you took the opportunity to abandon the official and flee (PS: When Hua Xin betrayed Dong Boss, Kang Peng had not yet reached the Three Kingdoms era), the first time he betrayed the lord and betrayed his righteousness, Yuan Shu took you as a minister, and it didn't take long for you to betray the fugitive official for the second time, and then you were the minister of Liu Biao's seat, the heavenly army of the prime minister was approaching, and you encouraged Liu Biao to surrender his own appearance, although he was meritorious, but he was unjust, so capricious and treacherous, what is the use of keeping you here? ”

Speaking of this, Kang Peng opened his broken gong and shouted: "All the Jingzhou heroes here, do you say, should you kill this villain?" As soon as Kang Peng's voice fell, Zhang Jian and Zhang Yuanjie, one of the eight handsome people in Jiangxia, immediately jumped out and bowed deeply: "Taishi is wise, this Hua Xin was extremely greedy for money and profit as early as when he was studying, and he rebelled twice and three times as an official, and his moral character was inferior. ”

"Zhang Yuanjie is reasonable." Kuai Yue also jumped out, hugged his fists and said: "In the past, Taishi killed Zhang Song and Yang Song, who betrayed the lord and sought glory, and greatly benefited the hearts of the people in Hanzhong, and today this unrighteous person will be punished with capital punishment, which is bound to make the Jingzhou gentry applaud and be grateful to Taishi." "Kuai Yue's words are very true, Hua Xin, as a supervisor responsible for supervising the official discipline of officials, strictly enforces the law and is honest and honest, I don't know how many Jingzhou scholars have offended, Kang Peng killed him, and it can really make many Jingzhou scholars applaud.

"If you don't kill Hua Xin, it's not enough for civilians to be angry!" "Hua Xin damn it!" "Taishi, the villain is willing to be the executioner, for the Taishi to remove this great harm...... "Half is to curry favor with Kang Peng, half is to communiqué personal vendetta, Jingzhou Shilin united together to denounce Hua Xin, and there is a great appearance of not getting rid of Hua Xin and vowing not to rest.

"Hua Xin, do you hear that?" Kang Peng sneered: "So many people want to kill you, what else do you have to say?" ”

"Hua Xin has something to say." Hua Xin raised his head.

"Say it quickly." Kang Peng said sharply.

"The first time the villain abandoned his official position and fled, it was because the Taishi was cruel and murderous when he first entered Luoyang, tyrannical and unkind." Hua Xin was not afraid, and said loudly: "The villain didn't want to be abused by the Taishi at that time, so he abandoned the official and fled; The second time Yuan Shu was abandoned, it was because Yuan Shu was short-sighted, rashly called the emperor and did not know how to sympathize with the people, the people of Huainan were not happy, and sooner or later they would kill themselves, and the virtuous ministers chose the lord to serve, so the villain abandoned the official again; This time, Jingzhou Liu Biao only knew how to dance and write ink, chant poetry and wind and moon, and sat back and watched a group of corrupt officials and corrupt officials in Jingzhou loot the people, Jingzhou let Liu Biao spoil it again, and did not know that there would be people who would suffer, and the Taishi had repented after the battle of the Tiger Prison Pass, released the princes of the Eighteen Roads, relieved the northern refugees, and took the initiative to return the power in his hands to the saints, and received the divine seed from God, and governed the three states of Yonghe and Liang like a fairyland on earth, that is, to descend Jiuxi to the Taishi, it was not enough to show the merits of the Taishi, Hua Xin planned for the people of Jingzhou, so he persuaded Liu Biao to surrender to the Taishi, Nothing else. ”

Kang Peng's ugly fat face changed in the weather, but Hua Xin was still silent, and after a long time, Kang Peng said, "Are you finished?" Is there any?" Hua Xin nodded: "It's over." ”

"Nonsense!" Kang Peng suddenly slapped the case again, and shouted: "Gaozu swears to kill the white horse, if it is not Liu, he must not be crowned king, as a Hanchen, the world eats Hanlu, how can he do that disloyal and unrighteous thing?" ”

"Qin lost his deer, and the world chased him." Hua Xin raised his head and said: "Now that the Han family is declining, the building will fall, only Dong Taishi is in place as the king, can support the overall situation, and justifiably punish the world's chaotic ministers and thieves, and return the world to peace." "Things have developed to this point, Dong Zhuojun's two major military divisions, Jia Xu and Pang Tong, have already brightened their hearts, and the two of them are just wondering, how did Boss Dong know that Hua Xin would say these words? Could it be that Boss Dong colluded with Hua Xin in advance to act for everyone to see? But it's not like it?

"Nonsense! Nonsense! Dong Taishi, who was loyal to the Han Dynasty, had his hands tightly covered with fat ears, just like he was afraid of hearing the words of the traitor Hua Xin, who had no king and no father, Rao was like this, Dong Taishi was still so angry that his beard straightened, and he yelled: "Drag this kingless and fatherless Hua Xin down and cut it down, I am relatively loyal to the saint, and I don't want to hear these words again." But when he said this, Dong Taishi's copper bell eyes stared at Jia Xu, as if there was something inconvenient to say to imply Jia Xu.

Sure enough, when the samurai came up and dragged Hua Xin, Dong Zhuojun's military advisor Jia Xu and deputy military advisor Pang unified their seats, knelt down in front of Kang Peng, and said in unison: "Taishi, although Hua Xin deserves to die, he advised Liu Biao to surrender, not without merit, and he is also honest as an official. ”

The loyal Han Taishi Dong pondered for a long time, and then said reluctantly: "For the sake of the two military advisors, I have the right to write down the head of Hua Xinxiang." The Great Han Dynasty Dong Taishi seemed to be still angry, and said fiercely: "But the capital crime can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, Hua Xin will be removed from his previous official position and demoted to a servant to show punishment, if there is a recidivism, it will not be spared!" ”

Jingzhou Shilin was dumbfounded, and Wenhou Lu Bu, the righteous son of Dong Taishi, opened his mouth even wider, almost suspecting that his father-in-law was confused, Hua Xin's previous official position was only the state and county supervisor and smelter, from the eighth grade, and the servant was a member of the imperial court, and he was the fourth grade, which was a downgrade, but Hua Xin was promoted to five levels all of a sudden! Lu Bu was about to speak to remind his father-in-law, but Lu Su gently grabbed him and said in a low voice: "Wen Hou, don't speak, the Taishi knows better than anyone else in his heart." ”

As a result, Hua Xin, who was still a prisoner just now and almost became a ghost under the knife, was immediately taken off his prison clothes, changed into a mid-court official uniform, and sat in the position where he should be sitting, but Hua Xin was still silent, only when he lowered his head, a trace of triumph flashed in his eyes. Jia Xu didn't speak on the surface, but he was secretly happy in his heart, if Hua Xin hadn't volunteered, then Boss Dong would have to hand over the unlucky errand that was scolded by the world to himself, which was very reluctant to do it by the low-key Jia Xu.

It took a long time to interrogate Hua Xin, and it was much easier to deal with Ma Liang, Kang Peng just asked Ma Liang, "When you were a minister under Liu Biao, did you ever think that you would now become a prisoner?" Ma Liang, who was knocked unconscious by Cai Mao and captured alive, only replied, "I thought about it, but as a courtier, I have to be loyal." Kang Peng laughed and demoted Ma Liang to the chief secretary of Jingzhou, and Kuai Yue, Kuai Liang and Yi were also appointed as Jingzhou scholars, but Kang Peng did not leave them in Jingzhou as officials, and they were all sealed to Dong Zhuojun's base camp Yongzhou as civil officials, as for their family's interests in Jingzhou, naturally there were a group of red-eyed Yongjiliang businessmen and Dong Zhuojun's meritorious family to devour them, and Kang Peng didn't have to worry about it at all. And the most unlucky is the original Jingzhou assassin Liu Biao, because that night really tortured Kang Peng badly enough, Kang Peng gave him suicide, Liu Biao's eldest son Liu Qi and his wife Cai degraded to a concubine, moved to Liangzhou to live, Cai gave birth to a son on the way who did not know whether it was Liu Biao, or the Dark Moon Group or Jiangdong soldiers, named Liu Fei, less than three days, Cai died of postpartum stroke, Liu Fei died in less than ten days, Liu Qi died of illness in Liangzhou five years later, and Liu Biao was wiped out from then on.

After everything was disposed of, Kang Peng rewarded the three armies, set up a banquet to entertain the ministers, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves during the banquet, until late at night, Kang Peng was drunk and wanted to harass Wen Lu, and he didn't want to just get to the door of Wen Lu's house, he was stopped by Huang Yueying, Huang Yueying pouted and said: "Bad Xianggong, you lied to me, today I saw that what you did was not explosive at all, or gunpowder, the power was too small, it took nearly a hundred powder barrels to blow up a city gate, and the effective killing range of people was less than five zhang, not much stronger than the black powder I made." ”

Kang Peng pinched her little face and said with a smile: "And it can only be used in siege, it is not practical in field battles at all, if the enemy has cavalry, the catapult has not yet been loaded with medicine, the cavalry has already rushed in front of it, even if the enemy is infantry, they have enough time to dodge, right?" ”

Huang Yueying nodded and said: "Yes, you said that real explosives can crack mountains and rocks, and even steel can blow up, but I haven't seen what real explosives are until now." ”

"Because the formula of real explosives is not known, in order to make real explosives, it takes a genius like you to continue to explore and research, then there is hope to make real explosives." Kang Peng sighed like a philosopher. But the bad student didn't have to go through it for long, and then moved his mind to the little beauty in front of him, since Huang Yueying died begging for a white face to be Kang Peng's wife, Huang Yueying has never deliberately made herself ugly, at this moment Huang Yueying in the moonlight is only wearing a moon-white coat, the development is close to maturity, the body is extremely attractive, and the little face seems to be transparent and shiny, which makes the bad students feel excited.

The bad student swallowed a mouthful of saliva, leaned into Huang Yueying's ear and whispered: "Be careful of the liver, in fact, black powder also has some uses, it can make muskets or grenades or something, let's go to your bed, and slowly explain the principle to you, okay?" ”

Huang Yueying's little face immediately turned red, and without saying a word, Kang Peng's personal soldiers immediately scattered sensibly, Huang Yueying quietly pulled Kang Peng back to his room, lay down on his bed, closed his big eyes, and said in a mosquito-like voice: "I know that you will definitely not teach me in vain, whatever you want, but in the future, you must teach me everything you will have." ”

……

Let's not say that the bad students seduced the innocent girl again in Xiangyang, just said that Zhou Yu lost his troops and would return to Chaisang, contrary to Zhou Yu's expectations, Sun Quan and Sun Jing and others had already rushed to Chaisang, although Zhou Yu wondered how Sun Quan would abandon Jianye with better conditions and move to Chaisang, but now is not the time to question, Zhou Yu first ordered someone to tie himself up, and then went to Sun Quan to cry about the careless defeat and asked Sun Quan to punish himself, and this time Zhou Yu saw the opportunity quickly when he was defeated, and rescued most of Sun Quan's generals, including Cheng Pu, Sun Quanjun's generals almost pleaded for Zhou Yu to repay Zhou Yu for saving his life.

"Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, Dong thieves are treacherous and treacherous, they are full of tricks, the ship can be burned and rebuilt, soldiers can be recruited again, you can rescue most of the veterans of our army, and our army will have a chance to make a comeback." Sun Quan was obviously more concerned about other matters, but he demoted Zhou Yuguan by three levels, fined him for half a year, and reorganized the naval army, so he ordered the generals to disperse and rest.

At night, Sun Quan quietly sent someone to call Zhou Yu to the secret room of Sun Jian's old mansion, and when there were only three people in the secret room, Sun Quan, Sun Jing and Zhou Yu, Sun Quan asked with a slashed face: "How did Huang Gai die?" Are you sure he's dead? Zhou Yu was shocked and hurriedly recounted the assassination of Huang Gai that day.

"Rubbish!" Sun Quan threw his usual age-inappropriate and sophisticated expression out of the clouds, overturned the cases in front of him, and scolded: "I don't dare to guarantee to kill someone, Ben Hou will tell you, Huang Gai may not be dead!" ”

"What? He's not dead? Zhou Yu's face turned white, and Sun Quan glared at him viciously and said: "My uncle's subordinates found out that on the fourth day after the Maicheng incident, a small fishing boat rescued a seriously injured old soldier near Wuchang, and when the old soldier was rescued, he was still holding a big log, I don't know how long he had been floating on the river, his age and appearance were very similar to Huang Gai, and it was probably Huang Gai." ”

"Later, the old soldier was injured in the fishing village for a while, and when my people appeared near the fishing village, he suddenly disappeared, obviously because he was afraid that someone would find him!" Sun Jing, who was in charge of Sun Quanjun's intelligence, added that in the past, Sun Jian had been fighting abroad for many years, and the internal affairs of Sun Jian's family were all handed over to Sun Jing to take care of, as for why Sun Jing wanted to help Sun Quan seize the throne, this was the secret between Sun Quan and Sun Jing.

"It could be him, it could be his ......." Zhou Yu was already six gods and no master at the moment, and he didn't even know what he was talking about, so he came to his senses after a while, kowtowed, and said: "Don't worry, the villain will take someone to check, if it is really him, I guarantee that he will never have a chance to speak." ”

"What else do you need to say?" Sun Quan said viciously: "The people in that small fishing village have all been solved by my uncle's men, you will use the excuse of recruiting sailors tomorrow to lead the army to visit the Wuchang area of Jiangxia quietly, Dong Thief is now busy with the war in Jingzhou, and his power cannot be extended to Jiangxia for the time being, you must find Huang Gai and solve him before Dong Thief occupies Jiangxia!" ”

……

At the same time, the place returned to Xiangyang City, although it was late at night, an ordinary house in the city was still brightly lit, more than 30 men and women dressed differently were in the room, in the middle of the room, there were also a few spirit cards, led by a young man who led the crowd to kneel and bow to the spirit cards three times and nine times, and said: "Brothers, you can close your eyes, the Taishi has sent an order to Yongzhou, give your family members double the pension, let your family members enjoy the rest of their lives, you can go with peace of mind." ”

There was a sobbing in the room, and the young man turned around and said: "Brothers, sisters, these brothers died unfortunately because of the failure to steal the city gate, we commemorate them, but now is not the time to be sad, although our army occupies Xiangyang, but the four major counties of Jingzhou, Changsha Wuling and other places are still in their own ways, and the Taishi has issued an order, ordering us to go south to Jiangxia, Changsha and other places to prepare for our army's next move." ”

"Obey the orders of the Grand Master, please ask the captain to order." More than thirty men and women clasped their fists together and whispered.

"The Dark Moon Group No. 76 to No. 80 and the Swallow Group No. 43 and No. 44 are a group, your target is Changsha, and the Swallow Group manages to get close to Han Xuan......" The young man assigned the tasks one by one, and after the assignment was completed, the young man said: "While you are carrying out the task, you should also pay attention to finding a person, his name is Huang Gai." ”
