Chapter 156: Nengwen Nengwu
According to Zhou Yin, this matter is estimated to be targeted by other families for their family, which is also reasonable, Cao Xuan can't find any flaws, but Cao Xing vaguely feels in his heart that it doesn't seem to be the case.
Next, Cao Xuan asked Zhou Yin about the handling of other things, and Zhou Yin also answered them all, and afterwards, Cao Xuan returned to his military camp, but in the evening, Cao Xuan took Che Wu and came to the prison in Yingchuan City.
The jailer pushed open a cell door, Cao Xing and Che Wu walked in slowly, and at this moment he saw a person wearing a prison uniform, a shawl, and a chain in his hand, but his demeanor was very peaceful, as if he was willing to face death calmly.
Hearing someone's footsteps, the man slowly opened his eyes, revealing his bright eyes.
I saw him slowly stand up and bow his hand to Cao Xing and said, "Lord Cao, thank you for giving the people the truth!" ”
"Hehe, don't thank me, I just did what I had to do!"
Cao Xing looked around at this cell, it was dark, and it was smelly everywhere, but this Shan Fu was able to look calm, and he was indeed not an ordinary person.
"I see that your demeanor is so relaxed now, aren't you really afraid of death!"
"Hahaha, why is the husband afraid of death!"
"Definitely!" Cao Xing shook his fingers and said: "In my opinion, people are inherently dead, either heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than Hongmao, and now you are going to die because of this matter, don't you think there are some nests?" To tell you the truth, that Changshe County Order is actually just a chess piece, superfluous things, he doesn't know anything, you didn't find out the culprit behind it, you died like this, are you willing! ”
Hearing this, Shan Fu fell silent, and Cao Xuan continued: "I have read the information about you, saying that you are a businessman who travels between Yanzhou and Jingzhou, and there is an eighty old mother in the family, can you leave with confidence!" ”
As soon as Cao Xuan mentioned Shan Fu's mother, Shan Fu's expression changed, and he began to become a little nervous, obviously Cao Xuan talked about his sore spots, if he really left, I am afraid that his elderly mother would have no one to take care of him.
"Actually, I have a question, my parents are not far away, and your mother is very old, why do you have to go so far to Jingzhou to do business!"
"Oh, it's also about begging for a bite to eat!" Shan Fu replied casually.
"No, if you do business in Yanzhou, it won't be worse than going to Jingzhou to do business, Yanzhou is also a relatively wealthy place, but you insist on running so far, and this time you came back to visit your mother, but you just ran into this thing!"
"Maybe this is the will of heaven, my single blessing's life will end here!"
"That day, I saw your method of assassinating Zhou Taishou, as well as the degree of ferocity, it seems that you have no intention of showing mercy to your subordinates, and the fierceness is enough to kill, if I guess correctly, you should have a life on your hands!"
As soon as Cao Xing's words came out, Shan Fu Huo Ran got up and looked at Cao Xuan with a nervous expression, and Che Wu in the back saw Shan Fu like this, unsheathed his sword in the back, ready at any time, and Cao Xuan smiled and beckoned to Che Wu, signaling that Che Wu did not need to be nervous.
"If I didn't guess wrong, your name should be Xu Shu!"
When Cao Xing said this name, Shan Fu's eyes widened, and he stayed in place at a loss, as if he had been struck by lightning and was stuck in place.
Looking at Shan Fu like this, Cao Xing's heart became more certain, in fact, when he saw the name Shan Fu, he felt a faint sense of familiarity in his mind, but he couldn't remember it for a while, just after the trial was over, Cao Xing thought hard and meditated, and never thought that there was a person surnamed Shan in the Three Kingdoms.
But this Shan Fu did live in Yingchuan Changshe, so Cao Xing began to think about what other historical celebrities there were in Yanzhou, and he remembered Xu Shu.
Xu Shu is indeed a ranger in the rivers and lakes, brave and ruthless, it is said that when he was a teenager, he had already killed people and violated the law here, in order to escape responsibility, so he became a ranger, changed his name and surname, and traveled all over the world. This time I came back and happened to bump into this incident.
"You, you ......" Xu Shu may not have thought of it, how could Cao Xuan feel its bottom so clearly, but Cao Xuan smiled indifferently, he had already determined that the young man in front of him was Xu Shu.
Xu Shu did not appear very many times in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but he left a deep impression, because he could be regarded as Liu Bei's first strategist, and even recommended Zhuge Liang to Liu Bei before leaving, so there was a story of three visits to the thatched house.
Xu Shu didn't dare to say that he had great powers, but at least he was a first-class strategist, and more importantly, Cao Xing admired a characteristic of Xu Shu very much, that is, in the early period of the Three Kingdoms, Wen can write to settle the world, Wu can cross the horse to set the world, and can be a strategist, and can be a general, there are nothing more than two people, one is Xu Shu in front of him, and the other is Zhou Yu who is far away in Jiangdong.
Before this, Cao Xing originally thought that he was very close to those historical celebrities, but all of them missed out because of chance, and this time he would return empty-handed, who knew that God sent him a Xu Shu.
Looking at Xu Shu's appearance of wanting to kill people, but not daring to kill, Cao Xuan smiled again, and then said: "Xu Shu, you don't have to be nervous, and you don't have to think about how I know your real name, I have asked Zhou Taishou before, for the way to deal with this matter, Zhou Taishou finally said that he admitted it this time, and others gave him a set, who told him not to pay attention to it, you and that Changshe County Order are just a chess piece in his hand, he said that he wanted to deal with the two of you seriously, but he was well versed in benevolence, righteousness and etiquette, and finally said forget it, If you don't plan to hold the two of you accountable, you and the Changshe county magistrate will eventually be released, of course, because of the incompetence of that county magistrate, it is estimated that it will no longer be a county magistrate! ”
Xu Shu's nerves were at a high level of tension at the moment, and after he heard Cao Xing's words, his face did not show any joy, nor did he show any surprise, but asked a little crampedly: "What do you mean by telling me this!" ”
Seeing this, Cao Xuan smiled in his heart, this Xu Shu is really not stupid, today Cao Xuan did not announce the final result of the sentence between the two of them, but just put the two of them in prison, this Xu Shu can guess, maybe everything has a turnaround, so he is so calm.
"You said to me in court today, you want to do justice for the people of the world, but if you look at this matter, you are just a pawn that has been used, and you are still there stupidly helping others to take the blame, do you think your justice has been successfully served!"
Xu Shu didn't answer, for this matter, since Cao Xing has already explained it so clearly, I believe that this Xu Shu will not be unable to understand.
"Xu Shu, I don't know if after going through this incident, you will still think that with your three-foot Qingfeng, you can go to the end of the world with a sword and kill all outlaws!"
After Xu Shu heard these words, he was silent for a long time, and then he finally opened his mouth and asked Cao Xing: "Lord Cao, what do you say I should do!" ”
"Your wisdom in this life can't be wasted here, follow me, I will give you a chance to show your ambitions, and I will realize the peaceful and prosperous world in your heart for you!" Cao Xuan stared at Xu Shu with burning eyes and said.
And Xu Shu didn't hesitate, he nodded firmly, in Xu Shu's world, although he has his own beliefs, but until now he has achieved nothing, because it is just a simple ranger and will not do anything big, but today Cao Wei said these words to him, he has already decided that maybe the noble person in his life has appeared, so Xu Shu naturally chose to follow Cao Xuan without hesitation.
Seeing this, Cao Xing's whole person was completely relieved, and the next day he went to see Zhou Yin again, and Zhou Yin's request for Cao Xuan also agreed with a wave of his hand, and the final verdict of Xu Shu was acquittal, as for the county order, he was dismissed and exiled home.
Hearing the news, Xu Shu's neighbors were all overjoyed, and Xu Shu also returned to his home and discussed the time with his old mother for a night, and finally his old mother agreed with a smile.
In the early morning of the third day, Xu Shu also packed his luggage and said goodbye to his mother in tears.
At this moment, at the gate of the city, Cao Xuan had already waited for Xu Shu there with his men and horses, Xu Shu saw this situation, first walked in front of Cao Xing, and respectfully gave Cao Xuan a punch: "Lord, from today on, Xu Shu's life is yours!" ”
"Hehe, don't be angry there, your life is your own, get on the horse, let's go back to Luoyang!"
Cao Xing and the others waited under the eyes of Zhou Yin and other officials, and slowly left Yingchuan.
This time Cao Xuan rescued Yingchuan, not only won the battle, but also cracked such a big case, Zhou Yin was also very upright, and truthfully wrote all his merits in the merit book, which was brought back by Cao Xing, submitted to the saint, and rewarded for meritorious deeds, so Cao Xing's mood was very good along the way.
Cao Xuan calculated the time while walking, if his estimate was correct, now in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo and Yuan Kui and those people have already fought to the death, and they can't get along, since this is the case, Cao Xing has slowed down his pace even more, and only walks a small distance every day. He also did this to leave enough time to make those people in Luoyang go crazy, hoping that when he returned to Luoyang again, the pattern had completely changed.
It wasn't until half a month later that Che Wu came with a few people to report quickly.
"Lord, something is wrong, it is said that after Dong Zhuo's adviser Li Ru saw the contents of the holy decree last time, Dong Zhuo's actions began to become rampant, and he had no king's law, and directly killed the ministers of the court in broad daylight, many people dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, because Dong Zhuo had the most elite Xiliang iron cavalry in his hands, and it is said that there were quite a lot of people, and even just two days ago, Dong Zhuo did the abolition of the establishment, abolished the current saint, and renamed Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, as the emperor!"
Che Wu was sent out by Cao Xuan early in the morning to inquire about the news, and now he has reported all the news to Cao Xing, Cao Xuan looked expressionless on the surface, but in his heart he nodded with satisfaction, he just wanted to say that Dong Zhuo did a good job, if there was no Dong Zhuo, the butcher, it is estimated that those families would have turned the world upside down. Now those families have kicked the iron plate, and they have a good feeling.
But now that Cao Xing has been away from Luoyang for more than two months, and the Yellow Turban Army has been dispersed, he can't delay any longer, he must hurry back. Take a look at the latest chapter of "The Strongest Marksmanship of the Three Kingdoms" to read for free for the first time.
