Chapter 130: Destroy the Kuai Clan
In this way, other civil and military officials may also help him intercede.
But Liu Cong didn't act according to Kuai Yue's script, and Kuai Jian couldn't support it over there.
Huang Quan came up and was a whip again!
"I said, I said, it's the eldest prince and my uncle......"
Coax...... The hall suddenly exploded, if it was the eldest prince Liu Qi who instructed Kuai Jianxing to stab Liu Cong, everyone can understand, then Kuai Yue ...... Among these three people, Kuai Yue is a well-deserved think tank, the mastermind!
"Xiang Zhi, read the letter from the Kuai Mansion to everyone."
"This ......" Xiang Lang was a little embarrassed. It turned out to be a letter written by Cao Cao to Kuai Yue. In fact, according to Liu Cong's knowledge, Cao Cao wrote such letters not only to Kuai Yue, but also to Cai Mao, Yi Yuan, Han Song and others.
This has to be changed in normal times, Liu Cong knows that this is Cao Cao's scheming, even if he can't successfully persuade the celebrities of Jingzhou, he can also separate their relationship with Liu Cong! But now this letter has become a fatal thing for Kuaiyue!
As soon as Xiang Lang read the letter, many of them understood. The person who received Cao Cao's letter was Liu Cong, who was an example of killing chickens and monkeys. People who have never received the letter collaborated with the enemy at that time, which caused Liu Cong to jump like thunder!
Kuai Yue is really indisputable, he was at odds with Liu Cong, but he never thought of assassinating Liu Cong. As for the surrender of Cao Cao, it is even more of a no-brainer, his own family is in Luzhong. What's more, even if he is not treated by Liu Cong, he is not too bad in Xiangyang now, Cao Cao is far away in Yecheng, how can he say that he surrendered.
But Liu Cong was unwilling to let go of such a great opportunity, and after ordering someone to drag Kuai Jian down, he asked Wang Bao and others to come forward to testify!
Now the case is basically qualified.
Liu Cong looked at the group of civil and military officers in the hall: "Cong only knows that his talents are limited, but it is His Majesty's hope to govern Jingzhou and entrusted by his father." If there are still people who are not convinced, but if they say it, it is another meritocracy, and Cong is willing to give way. ”
"But villains like Kuai Yue have already surrendered to Cao Thief, but they have repeatedly confused their father with clever words. My father wanted to entrust him with him, and he asked me to treat him with the courtesy of my father. But he never thought that he would take refuge in Cao Cao three years ago! At that time, although Cong had evidence, he was suffering from people's slight words, so he endured it. In order to protect the families of Wang Bao and others, they even pretended to be led by Kuai Yue, and sent troops to exterminate the Honghu Lake bandits.
originally thought that this matter was buried deep in my heart, and I didn't want to mention it again when it was rotten in my stomach. Now he is indeed bewitching his brother and indulging his nephew to openly assassinate him in Xiangyang City. What's the use of such a villain keeping you?
Come! Execute Kuai Yue after three days! Huang Quan immediately led someone to copy the Kuai family. The three clans of the Kuai clan! ”
"Ah......" Kuai Yue never thought that Liu Cong not only didn't let go of himself, but also robbed the family and razed the three clans! This is the same as Nanjun Wu Ju back then. immediately shouted in the hall: "Liu Cong'er, the old man is not convinced!" The old man did not collaborate with the enemy, and he did not surrender to Cao. I don't know anything about the assassination......"
"Pull it down!" Without waiting for Kuai Yue to speak, Liu Cong ordered someone to put Kuai Yue in prison.
The other civil and military officials present also gasped, and actually forgot to intercede with Kuai Yue. It may also be scared silly, and it is more likely that he is wise to protect himself.
From now on, Liu Pan will be the captain of the city gate. Xiang Lang is a doctor! He was hired as the general of Anguo, and led his troops into Xiangyang on the same day to discuss the defense plan of Jingzhou. Zhuge Liang is the general's mansion. Jiang Wan is mainly thin. Li Yan is the Taishou of Nanjun, and Liu Ba is the county leader. ”
After Liu Cong dealt with Kuai Yue's affairs, he lost no time in issuing a series of appointments. In the eyes of outsiders, Liu Cong appointed his cronies for self-protection after his assassination, but in fact, Liu Cong had a plan for a long time and had been waiting for this day for a long time. In the final analysis, the major event of resisting Cao has to rely on Wenpin, Zhuge Liang and others.
A group of civil and military officers in Xiangyang watched Liu Cong give orders in the hall, and they were full of emotion in their hearts, how elegant Liu Biao was back then. Now these two sons ......
After the church dispersed, Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Yi Yuan, Han Song and others stayed. They were surprisingly unanimous this time, and they knelt down to intercede for Kuai Yue.
There are no idle people, and Liu Cong no longer has a straight face: "Ladies and gentlemen, it's not that Liu Cong is ruthless, if it wasn't for my life in Nanjun back then, it might be him who is standing here and talking today."
You have also seen that Kuai Jian actually poured sewage on his brother's head. My brother and I are siblings, and we will never do such filthy things. And his collaborator with the enemy is also ironclad evidence, my father and son are royal relatives, and I am determined to resist Cao, and their uncles and nephews do not want to tolerate me anymore when they see me succeeding to the throne, so there is today's disaster. Do you know how many ordinary people they kidnapped back then? There were forty people, plus ten soldiers, to spend such a large price to assassinate the Honfu. If it weren't for Cao Cao to support him, how could they have such courage.
There is no need to say anything about this, I still say the same thing, if you think that Liu Cong is not enough to convince the public, and you can't suppress the state, you can do another merit, I have no complaints. But I will never allow those who secretly collude with external forces to carry out assassinations at home. If something like this happens again, even if Xiangyang City is bleeding, this government will not be merciful! ”
Liu Cong said half of this to Cai Mao, but most of it was to warn the Iraqi nationality. Kuai Yue was raided because of a letter from Cao Cao. Yi and Liu Bei were more closely linked.
Seeing that the persuasion was ineffective, everyone left, leaving only Cai Mao alone.
"You knew about Kuai Yue beforehand?" Cai Mao was very puzzled by Kuai Jian's arrest on the spot. Kuai Jian is stupid, Kuai Yue is never stupid, if the mastermind of this matter is Kuai Yue, it should be done more secretive and cleaner.
"Father-in-law, this matter is at the scene of the incident."
Seeing that she couldn't ask anything, Cai Mao also took her leave. He began to worry about himself. This Kuai Yue is obviously the chicken that Liu Cong killed and set an example of. So who are the monkeys? Who else could there be besides him, Cai Mao and Yizhi?
Liu Pan and Huang Quan did not disappoint Liu Cong. None of the people of the Kuai clan in Xiangyang City escaped. Overnight, a famous family disappeared like this!
In fact, Liu Cong was also forced to do so, when Liu Biao was there, Kuai Yue and Cai Mao still hindered each other. But if Cao Cao marches south one day, these two big families may not hesitate to abandon their previous suspicions and cooperate and set themselves up. Cai Mao holds the military power, and most of the clansmen are in Xiangyang City, and he is Liu Cong's father-in-law.
Killing Yi, Han Song, etc. was not weighty enough, so Liu Cong had no choice but to target Kuai Yue. It's just that I didn't expect Kuai Jian to give himself the opportunity to start so quickly! This can be described as a sin made by heaven, it can still be lived, and it is a self-inflicted sin, and it cannot be lived!
Extinguishing Kuai Yue, Xiangyang vacated a high position as a civil official, and also provided Liu Cong with a large amount of anti-Cao funds! Of course, the most important thing is to deter the government and opposition in Xiangyang. The civil and military officials in Xiangyang City should not dare to act rashly for a period of time. And the county guards and generals in other counties heard about this and then thought of Wu Ju back then, and they didn't dare to make a mistake if they didn't have the certainty of victory! This is also one of Liu Cong's goals, he wants to rely on his political achievements and prestige to make the state peaceful, but it is too late.
That night, Cai Mao got an even more shocking news that Wen Ping's army of 20,000 had entered Xiangyang City. The order was issued in the morning, and it arrived in the afternoon? This kid obviously didn't want to give anyone a chance.
It was impossible for the Kuai family to resist, first surrounded by a thousand cavalry, and now 20,000 infantry entered the city. You must know that Xiangyang City originally had only 30,000 defenders, of which 10,000 were sailors. Cai Mao knew that even if he led 30,000 defenders now, he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat the 20,000 people. After all, Liu Cong is the pastor of Jingzhou, the general of Pingnan ordered by the imperial court. It seems that it is only a matter of time before he loses ground. Although Cai Mao was Liu Cong's father-in-law, he also received a letter from Cao Cao.
Thinking of this, the first thing Cai Mao did was to take out the letter and burn it!
When the Yi returned home, it was even more up-and-down, and Liu Cong was obviously suspected of using the topic to play today, but the supervision court was unable to intercede for Kuai Yue. The disadvantage of Yi nationality is that he has too close contact with Liu Bei.
Thinking about it carefully, he just admired Liu Bei's fame. Now it seems that Liu Cong's ability is not under Liu Biao, and he doesn't have to worry about other things, so he still serves Liu Cong honestly, of course, Cao Cao's letter naturally can't be kept. Presumably, Liu Cong also knew about the letter, and if he didn't say it today, it was nothing more than giving everyone a chance and a step.
On the second day, Cai Mao and Yi received an order: Cai Mao was promoted to general of the military division and Jiangxia Taishou, and led 15,000 troops to leave for Shaxian immediately.
