49, the edict of the cloth belt is in turmoil (below)
This is a blow to the heart, Yan Xing, who crusaded against Li Dao, is not a loyal minister who assists the Son of Heaven, is Cao Cao who is now in the dog Gou Fly Camp is a loyal minister who can assist the Son of Heaven?
Liu Xie was silent!
He must admit that in today's troubled times, if he wants to revitalize the Han Dynasty, he can't rely on his young self, and he can't do it by relying on the civil and government princes in the court.
This is a fact, and Wang Yun's failure has verified this.
This made the young son of heaven fall into the question of whether to choose Yan Xing or Cao Cao's auxiliary government.
The Guilds of Gon in the court openly and secretly told themselves that Yan Xing was out of his side, impregnated with Hu Feng, and was no different from Dong Zhuo, Li Dao and other martial artists, and with the experience of Dong Zhuo and Li Dao, they must always be on guard against this hussar general who stole power.
And although Yan Xing was under the guise of reviving the Han Dynasty, crusading against Li Dao, and recovering Sanfu, his actions such as killing dissidents, installing cronies, and controlling the dynasty also touched Liu Xie's fragile nerves from time to time.
Sixteen-year-old Liu Xie firmly believed in his heart that Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, and Yan Xing, who were from the same Xiliang Army, were essentially the same kind of people.
Then now Jia Xu asked himself, would Cao Cao be a loyal minister who was different from Yan Xing?
From Zhong Xuan, Ding Gong and other close ministers, Liu Xie can learn a lot about Cao Cao.
His grandfather Cao Teng welcomed the establishment of Emperor Xiaohuan, loyal to the country, his father Cao Song ranked as the third duke, the official to the captain, the young Cao Cao was not afraid of the powerful after the office, and ruled Jinan. When he was fighting Dong, he went deep alone, fought against Dong Rebellion, and when he was guarding Yanzhou, he pacified the Qingxu Yellow Turban, Yingchuan, and Runan Yellow Turban.
This time, it was also him who took the initiative to welcome the imperial court, and compared with the powerful Yuan Shao, he had a superior opinion, which fell in the eyes of the Son of Heaven, which is also a manifestation of loyalty to the monarch and serving the country.
Before Jia Xu asked, Liu Xie firmly believed that Cao Cao was a loyal minister.
But after Jia Xu's inquiry, Liu Xie was undisguisedly shaken.
In addition to the deeds of Zhong Xuan and Ding Gong, Cao Cao also expelled the Yanzhou assassin Shi Jinshang appointed by the imperial court, slaughtered countless Xu Fang people, and killed Yanzhou celebrities like Bian Rang with his words.
His deeds are very loyal to the monarch and the country, but his methods are also strong and fierce.
It's just that this vacillation only lasted for a short while, and Liu Xie quickly reaffirmed his previous beliefs.
At this point, there is no room for any further hesitation. Liu Xie chose to believe that Cao Cao was a loyal minister of the Han family and could assist him in reviving the Han family.
As long as he got rid of Yan Xing's control, Liu Xie could do what he wanted to do, such as reactivating Dong Cheng, who had become a relative, promoting loyal courtiers, and restoring some of the old Han family systems that were conducive to establishing the authority of the Son of Heaven.
Now you shouldn't worry about those unknowable futures, Liu Xie prefers to believe that this is another trap that Jia Xu threw to himself, his eyes gradually became firm, and he looked at Jia Xu and said undoubtedly:
"Cao Yanzhou's ancestor Feiting Hou Teng, with more than 30 years of service to the province, serving the four emperors, has never tasted, his father is late Taiwei Song, obedient to the Son of Heaven, Fenggong country, Cao Yanzhou and his people, there is a father and ancestor Yu Feng, leading the volunteers, punishing the remnants of the thief, high merit and virtue, when the Han family loyal minister!"
This time it was Jia Xu's turn to be silent, and the words of the young Son of Heaven were quite meaningful, which made him surprised by the young intelligence of the Son of Heaven, and he was also worried about this intelligence.
Sometimes, the untimely intelligence in troubled times often leads to the disaster of killing yourself, let alone a young man born in the emperor's family?
Liu Xie's eyes stared at Jia Xu, and when he saw that the always majestic and wise servants were silenced by himself, his heart was not only proud, but also moved.
In all fairness, Jia Xu is not a loyal minister of the Han family, but he is not a rebel either. He said for himself that he had retreated from the Qianghu soldiers under Li Dao's command, and he had also sheltered the courtiers and ministers in distress, maybe he was not for himself, but considering his prestige among the Liang people and his extraordinary intelligence, Liu Xie felt that maybe he could win him over, and the worst was the worst, and he should also choose to be a bystander and neutral in the matter of the edict.
"Shizhong Gong, you once helped me to retreat from the Qianghu soldiers under Li Thief, and also sheltered the ministers of the court who were in distress, this time you retreated left and right before coming to see me, I know, you are different from others, you have the Han family in your heart, there is me, the son of heaven, tonight's matter, I hope, you can help me, okay?"
Liu Xie also let go of his-for-tat antagonistic attitude at this time, without the slightest frame of the Son of Heaven and the aggressive momentum just now, as if he had become a half-old child again, begging an elder to help him.
Jia Xu still didn't speak, but looked at the young son of heaven, his serious gaze was like examining his nephew who had done something wrong.
After a long time, Jia Xu reopened his voice, saluted the Son of Heaven and said:
"Your Majesty's words are serious, the ministers are empty and long-toothed, old and useless, and they can't help Your Majesty anymore. But tonight's incident, for the sake of the people under the rule of Mikawa, the minister cannot hide it for His Majesty. Before the minister became a servant, he also promised the hussar general who was an auxiliary minister that he would do his best to correct His Majesty's mistakes in behavior, words and deeds. Tonight's affairs, you must not allow Your Majesty to continue to make mistakes! ”
After finishing speaking, Jia Xu saluted the young Son of Heaven, picked up the clothes and belts on the imperial case, and turned around to leave.
Liu Xie saw that his low-voiced plea was rejected by Jia Xu, his face changed greatly in an instant, his hands were clenched tightly, his eyes burst out with vicious brilliance, and he stared at Jia Xu's back.
After hesitating for a while, Liu Xie didn't dare to kill people after all.
After Jia Xu turned around, he also felt that the gaze behind him had become cold and vicious in an instant, and his back seemed to be targeted by a lurking poisonous snake, but his pace was still very slow, as heavy as when he came.
"Wait!"
When Jia Xu walked to the door of the hall, Liu Xie finally stopped him, Jia Xu was calm, and slowly turned to look at Liu Xie.
"What else is your majesty?"
Liu Xie looked at the edict in Jia Xu's hand, as if it was his own life, he laughed miserably, and said word by word:
"Shizhonggong, I want to tell you one last time, the position you hold is a Han official, not a personal subordinate of Yan Hussar, if you go out of this door, I may not be the Son of Heaven, but you will never be Han Chen again!"
In an instant, a son of heaven who was unwilling to become a puppet, a young man who was only sixteen years old, these two identities kept switching in Jia Xu's eyes, Jia Xu sighed leisurely, and said loudly:
"Your Majesty can rest assured that no matter what happens tonight, the minister will resign from his position as a servant and will no longer set foot in the palace province. It's just that before leaving, the minister still wants to dare to say something more. ”
Mencius said: The people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light. Therefore, the people of the hill are the sons of heaven, the sons of heaven are the princes, and the princes are the doctors. The princes are in danger, and they are replaced. The sacrifice is completed, the rice (corn) is clean and clean, and the ancestors are worshipped at the time, but the drought is dry and the water overflows, and the community is changed. ”
"In the future, no matter where your Majesty is, please be able to remember the words of the sages, so that you can do it yourself! The minister retired. ”
Jia Xu slowly withdrew from the dormitory, and his figure gradually disappeared into the darkness, and the strong young man saw that the edict was inevitably taken away, and he had nothing to do, as if the strength on his body had been drained, his legs were weak, he sat on the ground with his buttocks, and shouted with a wry smile towards the door of the hall:
"A good servant, a good 'people are precious, the community is secondary, and the king is light'. Hehe, if I am not the Son of Heaven one day, then what do I want the people to do? ”
······
"Shizhonggong, the general is invited!"
The loud voice of Dian Wei beside him pulled Jia Xu back to reality, and he noticed that the personal guards who had been notified had returned, and he and the others could already enter the account to see Yan Xing.
"Thank you, Captain!"
After thanking Dian Wei, who reminded him loudly, Jia Xu no longer hesitated, and hurriedly strode towards Yan Xing's big tent with Pei Ji under the guidance of his personal guards.
···
In the big tent.
Yan Xing, who got the edict of the cloth belt, after slowly reading the edict in his hand, his face was a little weird, and after a long time, he looked up at Jia Xu and Pei Ji again, and asked out loud:
"Wen Hegong, Wen Heng, the Son of Heaven is suspicious of me, regards me as an enemy, in order to prevent the court from falling into turmoil, someone suggested that I abolish the Son of Heaven and set up a new monarch, what do you think?"
Pei Ji originally thought that Yan Xing would be furious when he saw the edict, but he didn't expect Yan Xing to behave so calmly. He was shocked in his heart, and suddenly heard that Yan Xing wanted to abolish the Son of Heaven, and his face suddenly became anxious.
This is a time of crisis, the abolition of the Son of Heaven, if you are not careful, this will be attacked by the crowd of the world, when the time comes, not only Yan Xing will become a chaotic minister and thief, but the entire Hedong camp is in danger, and even the Pei family in Hedong will be beaten into the ranks of the chaotic ministers.
Jia Xu heard more from Yan Xing's words, and the abolition of the Son of Heaven was only one of the steps. If Yan walked this step, he would have killed the abolished emperor Liu Xie, and cut off Cao Cao's eagerness to welcome the Son of Heaven, and then he would move the capital to avoid the danger of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao's attack, and then set up a new monarch and become a small court that dominated a corner.
If it is connected to the general trend of the world, then this lose-lose move will not only make Yan Xing accused of killing the monarch and thief, but also make the little authority that the Han family has just recovered be wiped out again.
Ambitious forces in various places, I don't know how many of them want to support the Han clan to ascend the throne and become emperors, and there will even be a bunch of princes with different surnames and crowns, and grass-headed emperors who are respected in the south.
What an even more terrible chaotic time!
Although Yan Xing welcomed himself back to Luoyang,
