Two hundred and five One Word Hall
"There is no misunderstanding, where is the misunderstanding? How could a loyal minister like the old man have any misunderstanding with the traitorous party and thieves? Dong Zhuo's round face trembled, revealing a hideous smile.
"Phase... Xiangguo, you, what do you mean by that? Liu Xie, who was sitting on the dragon chair, his little face tightened slightly, although he still couldn't figure out the situation, he couldn't understand it.
But in Dong Zhuo's tone, there was an unconcealed sense of oppression, but he could hear it clearly!
When the little emperor asked, Dong Zhuo naturally wanted to answer.
The bloated and fat body took a step forward, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, do you know that on the way back to Chang'an, the minister was attacked by a group of assassins and almost died on the spot. ”
As he spoke, Dong Zhuo glanced at Zhao Yan, the old waiter not far away, with a slightly hideous smile on his face, which became more and more brilliant.
Being looked at by Dong Zhuo's gaze, the waiter Zhao Yan, whose originally high-spirited face was no longer bloodless, was even whiter as snow at this time, trembling all over.
"It's... Isn't it all in the past? Xiangguo, haven't you already killed all the murderers? ”
Liu Xie seemed to realize something, and tried hard to change the topic.
He is far more intelligent than his age, and after Dong Zhuo mentioned this, he immediately understood.
Only then did he remember that once upon a time, the waiter Zhao Yan seemed to have half-concealed it, and mentioned it to him, so that he could wait with peace of mind.
At that time, I didn't care about it, but now that I think about it, it should be their loyal ministers, who are secretly planning Dong Zhuo for themselves!
No way!
Absolutely not, just so easily, let Dong Zhuo convict him!
A hint of melancholy flashed in Liu Xie's eyes, with Dong Zhuo's killing and deterrence, there are fewer and fewer old ministers who are loyal to him now, and now, he has to try to save the squire Zhao Yan.
"Passed? Hehe, that's not in the past. Dong Zhuo smiled and didn't accept Liu Xie's snort.
"Back to Your Majesty, the news of the so-called total killing is just a deliberate release by the minister, in fact, the minister at that time captured several assassins alive and threw them into the edict prison for secret interrogation."
"Through their confessions, the old man caught a traitor in the current dynasty, and he advanced layer by layer, unexpectedly, from him, the old man, unexpectedly, had more gains."
Hearing that an assassin was captured by Dong Zhuosheng, the squire Zhao Yan's face trembled suddenly, and after learning that an old minister had been confessed, he turned even pale.
Dong Zhuo noticed the change in his expression, smiled slightly, and snapped his fingers.
Soon, the armor soldiers waiting outside the hall immediately dragged in a prisoner wearing prison uniforms.
It was an old man, about fifty years old, with blurred skin and flesh all over his body, only two knuckles left of his ten fingers, and the strong smell of blood spread in the wind.
The corners of Dong Zhuo's mouth grinned slightly, revealing his white teeth, and interrogated the prisoner in public: "Doctor Yushi.... Lord Zhou Qizhou, come, tell Your Majesty and the civil and military officials, who was with you in the first place, who conspired to frame Zhongliang and intended to assassinate Benxiangguo!? ”
The old man covered in bruises raised his head, and through the gap in his hanging hair, he struggled to open his eyes that had been slimy with blood, and looked at the hundred officials in the hall.
When he looked around at the old squire Zhao Yan in front of him, his eyes locked on him, raised his hand, and pointed at this former colleague.
"Ahem... cough cough cough .... That's him... The waiter... Zhao Yan"
Zhou Qi coughed a few times, a trace of guilt flashed on his bloody face, a little pain, and he pointed out tremblingly.
"No, you're lying, you're framing me..."
Seeing the identification of the prisoner Zhou Qi, the waiter Zhao Yan couldn't help but staggered back half a step.
As if thinking of something, his face was forced to be calm, and he suddenly shouted at Liu Xie above: "Your Majesty, the old minister and the imperial envoy Zhou Qi himself are not familiar with each other, this must be their abuse of torture and beating this fight into a trick...
No matter how bad it is, it's this fight that is dying, and I want to pull people back, so I want to frame the minister! ”
Hearing that the waiter Zhao Yan couldn't save him when he saw death, and was even busy clearing up the relationship, Zhou Qi, the imperial historian who still had self-blame and guilt in his eyes, had a great hideousness in his eyes, and roared in a low voice.
"You fart, Zhao Yan! cough cough cough .... If you hadn't come to the old man and gave orders to those assassins, you leaked the old man's name, how could the old man be involved! ”
"It's all you bastard, forget it if you don't plan well, and you still hurt the old man, now you want to get out, no way!"
Thinking of the reason for his exposure, Imperial Doctor Zhou Qi couldn't help but get angrier and angrier the more he spoke, and his beard blew up.
"Fart! You, nonsense! Shut up! The squire Zhao Yan was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and his whole body was trembling.
At this moment, how dare he admit it, he can only grit his teeth and refuse to admit it.
"Hahahaha, interesting, interesting, it seems... Lord Zhao plans to die and refuse to admit it. ”
Watching the two accuse each other like a farce, Dong Zhuo laughed.
"But... What do you seem to be missing?
The old man never needs complete evidence to kill someone, as long as he is suspicious, he can be killed, and he would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go! ”
Dong Zhuo grinned, waved his hand casually, and asked the armor to drag Zhou Qi, the imperial historian who was already coughing seriously and out of breath, stiffly down.
Zhao Yan, the waiter, looked at Zhou Qi, the imperial historian who was dragged away, and opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't say anything, and his face was like ashes.
He understood, saying a thousand ways and ten thousand, when Dong Zhuo wanted to kill him, there was no one who could save him.
Sure enough, soon, Li Su under Dong Zhuo took the lead in standing up, with a sad look on his face, and reprimanded: "Phew! Zhao Yan, you are so bold, you dare to secretly send a dead soldier to assassinate the important ministers of the dynasty, you are guilty! ”
"Xiangguo!" Li Ru, who was dressed in white, also stood up abruptly.
While paying tribute to Dong Zhuo, he scolded angrily: "Over the years, Lord Xiangguo has been conscientious and diligent, and has made countless contributions to the stability of my Han society and the peace of the people.
You, this villain, are using some tricks behind your back, wanting to harm the Lord Xiangguo, which is really annoying and hateful! ”
"Your Majesty, if you don't kill, it's not enough to understand the laws of the Han Dynasty, and it's not enough to calm the anger of the people!" At the instigation of this pair of sons-in-law, the henchmen who were attached to Dong Zhuo also stood up one after another, accounting for one-third of the total number of people in the entire court.
The rest of the officials are also human spirits, except for a few who are silent, when they look at this appearance, the direction of the wind changes in an instant.
All of a sudden, hundreds of civil and military officials knelt down and begged to be executed, and Liu Xie, who was sitting above, was in a dilemma.
