Chapter 0402: Mourning the Prince

The prince was assassinated, and the world shook.

From the fifth year of Jianning, the prince has not been able to get rid of the entanglement of these assassins, during the Jianning period, he suffered a total of thirty-seven assassinations, and after the new monarch ascended the throne, he was also assassinated six times, he fell in the forty-third assassination, hearing the news, the most frightened in the heart is to point at the embroidered messenger Zhang He, this is the world at the feet of the thing.

In any case, he is not exempt from the crime of dereliction of duty.

However, the temple was quiet, after the assassination of the prince, the Son of Heaven did not even leave the palace, nor did he accuse Zhang He of incompetence, which did not alleviate Zhang He's worries, the silence of the Son of Heaven made him even more afraid, day and night, and tried his best to arrest them, and finally, he also found out the origin of these assassins, they were the disciples of the minister Zhu Yu.

After Zhu Yu's death, he was instructed by Liu You's son-in-law, that is, Jing Zhaoling Zhou Qi, to assassinate the prince in Zhongmu.

Zhang He immediately arrested Zhou Qi, and arrested many of Zhu Yu's doormen, who were not suspected of being involved in the case, and waited for the Son of Heaven to deal with them.

Wang Fu died, he followed Emperor Xiaokang, assisted by the industry for more than 20 years, and served the country and the people all his life, but when he died, no one in the world mourned for him, everyone was applauding, the traitor was finally eliminated, Zhou Qi also stood proudly, and said to the left and right: "Eliminate the thief for the country, die without regrets!" The fifty-four people who participated in the assassination were called the fifty-four heroes of Zhongmu by the people.

"Traitors die!"

"The big man is safe!"

"Celebrate!"

The world is overjoyed, hundreds of officials are overjoyed, and there are even students who jointly sign a petition to pardon Zhou Qi's crimes.

In the face of all this, the temple is still quiet.

Only Guo Jia knelt in front of Wang Fu's grave and cried.

He just couldn't figure it out.

"Why are those who serve the country and the people traitors, but those who kill the loyal and good become heroes?"

After his death, only Cai Yong and Cao Song came to visit and mourn, and the others were still indulging in joy, clapping their hands, drinking for fun, and celebrating the absence of the national thief.

Guo Jia knelt in front of the grave, and as the night grew deeper, he lowered his head and said nothing.

The slight sound of footsteps interrupted Guo Jia's musings.

"Who?"

Guo Jia turned his head, in the night, several people covered their faces, and Guo Jia looked at each other from afar, several people held shovel hoes, wearing long swords on their waists, the intention was very clear, Guo Jia was not angry, nor yelled, he pulled out the long sword on his waist, stood up, stood in front of the prince, the long sword pointed at everyone, Guo Jia's eyes were red, staring at them, and said in a low voice: "Fengxiao is here, Shijun doesn't have to worry...."

The people on the other side were also a little stunned, they didn't seem to expect that after half a month, there were still people guarding here.

The group fought together, Guo Jia brandished a long sword, there was a collision of knives and swords everywhere, blood splashed, Guo Jia was not afraid of life and death, fighting for his life, those people were just the surrounding ranger scoundrels, just thinking about ruining Wang Fu's grave and becoming famous all over the world, and he didn't want to die here like this, the more he fought, the more he was afraid, and he kept retreating.

"Huh~" The long sword slashed across Guo Jia's face.

Guo Jia had a small cut under the corner of his eye, and his left eye was mixed with tears and blood, and he couldn't see.

"Boom ~~~~~"

In the sky, thunder roared, huge lightning swept around, and thunder resounded in the sky!

It seems that a yellow dragon is rolling in the clouds, roaring angrily!

Bursts of thunder and lightning in your mouth!

The rangers were frightened, so they wanted to flee behind them, but at some point, a dense group of soldiers appeared around, the rangers were shocked, but there was nowhere to escape, among the soldiers, Sun Jian looked at these thieves coldly, and waved his hand violently.

The next day, these rangers were silent, and it was rumored in Luoyang that some rangers went to Wang Fu's grave, encountered ghosts, could not fight, and all died, it is said that the whole body was dismembered, there was no place intact, extremely terrifying.

"Fengxiao, suffering...."The Son of Heaven said.

Guo Jia didn't say anything, sitting in front of the Son of Heaven, there was a scar in the corner of his eye, which almost hurt his eye.

"Don't be like this.... I'm going to hold a court meeting... Let's go with me..."

The little fat man said calmly, Guo Jia didn't understand in his heart, why is the Son of Heaven still so calm in his heart for such a thing, could it be that after doing this Son of Heaven, even your original fiery temperament is no longer there?

The court discussion began, and the hundred officials quietly waited for the Son of Heaven to come.

The little fat man soon appeared in front of the eyes of the hundred officials, his eyes were as deep as water, and he couldn't see a trace of waves, but the more abnormal he was, the more afraid the hundred officials were in their hearts, he sat on the top position, Guo Jia also stood among the hundred officials, and the hundred officials greeted, but the little fat man was still silent, looking at them coldly, and there was no speech.

Baiguan stood awkwardly in his seat, and he didn't dare to sit down.

Without Wang Jiexin, they are quite unaccustomed to it, and there is no one to cook.

"Escort Zhou Qi up...."

The Son of Heaven said.

Zhang He hurriedly trotted out of the hall, waited for a few moments, two guards escorted Zhou Qi and walked in, these days, after many people's flattery and praise, Zhou Qi has long been not as afraid as before, even if he is dead, he is also a hero who removes thieves, in the future, he can't say that he can still enter the martyr's hall, what is there to fear? He thought to himself, tilted his head, and walked into the main hall.

The Son of Heaven looked at him coldly.

"Zhou Qi... Is that you? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, it's the minister...."

"You're not afraid of death?"

"What is there to fear if you get rid of thieves for the country and die well?"

"Hehehe~~~"

The little fat man sneered and said, "Pull this guy to the prince's grave and cook it to death.... I want to see, he's still afraid..."

Suddenly, the face of the hundred officials changed greatly, even Zhang He was a little dazed, and the little fat man said: "Plug his mouth, lest this guy can't bear the pain and commit suicide early, and as for the rest, all of them will be cut in half.... Zhang He? ”

"The minister is here!"

"Go ..... now"

"Your Majesty!!"

Baiguan couldn't hold back any longer, and several people hurriedly stepped forward, and the person who took the lead was Zheng Xuan, Zheng Xuan said helplessly: "This guy plotted to kill the minister of the temple, it is indeed a capital crime, but the so-called cooking punishment is too harsh, and I hope that Your Majesty will not impose such a heavy punishment, and the monarch must not be violent..... Your Majesty wants to know about the affairs of Emperor Qin, and you can't do it...."

"Oh? Zheng Gong is a businessman compared to me? The little fat man asked, squinting, and suddenly, he burst out laughing.

"Hahaha, what Gong Zheng said also makes sense, then I should be a business.... Zhang He! ”

"Your Majesty!"

"Burn him...."The little fat man said coldly, at this time, Zhou Qi can no longer maintain the arrogance of Fang Cai, he is not afraid of death, but if he is executed so brutally.... His legs were trembling, if it weren't for the guards holding him tightly, he was afraid that he would have fallen to the ground at this time, and the little fat man squinted his eyes and said: "Destroy his clan, those surnamed Dongyang Zhou, the Han will never be hired." ”

Zhang He didn't dare to object, and walked out with Zhou Qi in tow, at this time, Zhou Qi howled and shouted, this is not to exterminate the clan, it is to destroy the entire clan, the Han Dynasty has been tortured for hundreds of years, and no one has suffered such torture!

"Your Majesty, no! Your Majesty wants to rule the country with benevolence and righteousness, and if Emperor Xiaokang is here, he will not..."

"Shut up!" The little fat man yelled.

"I am not Emperor Xiaokang, He Yaye taught me Renzheng, but he did not teach me to swallow my anger!"

"He told me! The revenge of the ninth generation, especially revenge! ”

"At my feet, kill my henchmen, this revenge will not be avenged, and it will not be the son of man!"

The little fat man stared at Zhang He fiercely, Zhang He didn't dare to delay any longer, and pulled out the crying Zhou Qi directly, Baiguan's face was pale, Zheng Xuan was even more speechless, at this time, they found that Baiguan, no one could confront the Son of Heaven and persuade him, on weekdays, who held this important position and reprimanded the Son of Heaven?

Oh.... By the way, it's the Maharaja....

If the prince is gone, who can persuade him again?

Baiguan's heart was suddenly a little complicated, frowning, and he really didn't know how to speak.

"Zhang Jian!"

"The minister is here!"

"All the ministers who drank for pleasure after the death of the prince and celebrated with their crowns were given to me, dismissed from their official positions, and never to be used again!"

"Compliance.... Purpose. ”

"Bring the prince into the martyr's hall. . . Hundreds of officials escorted, and those who dared to oppose it were punished with capital crimes..... Make another class, for the treacherous room, it is set up next door to the martyr's hall, carve the anti-thief since the first year of Jianning, make him kneel to the martyr's hall, and be spurned by the world! ”

"Yes!"

At this moment, the Son of Heaven has completely become the Son of Heaven, no one dares to object, the king of the world, he looks up at the ministers, frowning, he is much more cruel than Emperor Xiaokang, and he will not think carefully about his actions, but he has a strong army of nearly 200,000 in his hands, who dares to object? Who dares to cause trouble?

In addition, after the death of the prince, about his position, Situ Zhi's important position, the Son of Heaven squinted, he originally wanted to give this position to Zheng Xuan, or Lu Zhi, but he didn't expect that the performance of these ministers would disappoint him so much, he thought for a moment, looked at Xing Ziang, and ordered: "Order Cao Cao to enter Luoyang!" ”

Xing Ziang nodded.

Of course, Cao Cao can't be Situ, he can't be Situ in terms of political achievements or prestige, but the little fat man has other plans in his heart, Xing Ziang is good at governance, but he lacks some strategy, he is now in his forties, but he can also be Situ, after all, he doesn't have any stains, he also has talents, and he can trust him, if he does Situ, Shang Shuling's position will definitely be vacant.

Cao Cao is the most suitable person for this position in his heart.

As for Cao Cao's position as the third Han minister, I heard that Chen Han Taishou Tian Feng has made great achievements over the years, and perhaps he can take over Cao Cao's position.

The little fat man thought in his heart, so he ordered to retreat from the court, and the hundred officials lamented and walked out one after another, their eyes were full of worry, but they didn't dare to speak, they didn't think that the Son of Heaven had been on the throne for less than a year, and he behaved so fiercely, if he was in power for another few decades... Alas, the ministers shook their heads, not daring to think about it, at this time, Zhang He escorted Zhou Qi to the prince's grave.

The people of Luoyang were angry, and the scholars blocked the way.

For them, Zhang He said calmly: "Violators die." ”

The embroidered messenger has never been merciful, after several leaders were directly killed by the embroidered messenger, no one dared to block the way, and was escorted to the prince's grave, Zhou Qi was already frightened a little abnormal, trembling all over, talking to himself, I don't know what to say, Zhang He didn't pay attention to him, people set up Ding, Zhou Qi roared wildly, and the soldiers pushed him.

A raging fire burned under the roof.

When the soldiers pushed him down, there was a tragic roar in the ding, the soldiers ignored it, took the spear, and pressed Zhou Qi, who wanted to escape, in the ding again and again, Zhou Qi disappeared in the ding, Zhang He looked at him coldly, and the ministers played the letter of the king all day long, but they didn't expect that the person who was cooked to death for the first time was the one who killed the prince.

Zhou Qi's tragic death silenced the entire restless Luoyang.

And the hundred officials are to escort the spiritual seat of the prince to the martyr's hall, whether they are in love or not, they bow their heads and just move forward, just because behind them, there are a group of elite southern soldiers, armed with fighting.

The Son of Heaven personally went to mourn and visit, and was posthumously named the Marquis of Ping County, and his heirs succeeded.

Under the strong intervention of the Son of Heaven, no one in Luoyang dared to say that Wang Fu was not, and at the same time, it also let the hundred officials see the strong side of the Son of Heaven, since the Son of Heaven ascended the throne, he has a gentle appearance, and has never disposed of anyone, all through the edict of Emperor Xiaokang, or with the order of Wang Fu, to deal with it, but this time, the Son of Heaven personally ordered, and a thief was cooked alive in front of the prince's grave.

The officials were frightened, and the prestige was thus formed.

At this time, the little fat man realized that blind kindness was completely useless.

Such a son of heaven will only appear to be extraordinarily cowardly.

He remembered the words of his childhood, Ho Yaye.

"Don't kill, don't wear swords, women and children!"

The prestige of Emperor Xiaokang is also based on the piles of human heads, those air-dried human heads at the head of Luoyang City, showing the majesty of Emperor Xiaokang, and now the head that is stacked outside Luoyang City is erected The majesty of today's son, the Son of Heaven was angry, and millions of corpses were ambushed, and soon, the traitorous room appeared around the Loyal Martyr's Hall.

There are all kinds of torture instruments around, and the traitors led by Dong Pet and Chen Yu are carved into statues, kneeling facing the Loyal Martyr's Hall.

Among the hundred officials, some people are not afraid of death, nor are they afraid of the sword of the Son of Heaven, but they are afraid of this treacherous name, if they have to kneel here for countless years, bear the abuse of hundreds of generations, and be spurned by future generations, how terrifying this is, the Son of Heaven took advantage of this matter, and also completely shocked the ministers in the temple, and now the Son of Heaven, every move, no minister dares to despise it.

Hanmen is also becoming more and more cautious, and when facing the Son of Heaven, he doesn't even dare to raise his head.

As for Guo Jia, he bowed heavily to the Son of Heaven, and there were no more words, the Son of Heaven was overjoyed and helped him up, he knew that he had lost a capable minister, and now he had gained another one, Guo Jia had been taught by the prince for many years, and in the future, he would definitely not let himself down.

In addition, it is to strengthen the matter of the embroidered messenger, after this incident, the officials want to suppress the embroidered messenger, there is no hope, the Son of Heaven will be the death of the prince, as a great shame, a steady stream of funding Zhang He, continue to expand the control of the embroidered messenger, even the court captain is the same, fortunately, the court captain Zhang Jian is not Zhang He like the Son of Heaven eagle dog, and will not be as cruel and ruthless as Zhang He.

After Zhang Wen arrived in Youzhou, he heard the news of Wang Fu's death, and the speed at which the post soldiers went to various places was obviously much faster than the speed of this group of new troops.

He sighed and bowed his head in silence.

The death of the prince brought an iron-blooded emperor to the Han Dynasty.

is like Emperor Xiaowu after Xiaowen Xiaojing, an iron-blooded and tough king.

But my prince, alas, woe, woe.
