Chapter XXVI
Chapter XXVI
The flags fluttered in the wind, and the horses kept plowing the ground and snorting. Cao Cao and Liu Xie climbed on the high platform that had already been erected, and the rest of the ministers stood on the side of the high platform. Cao Shuang leaned on the soft couch in the carriage and fell asleep. Cao Cao brought an army of 100,000, not to mention the killer assassins, not even a bird could fly in, so there was no need for Cao Shuang to worry about it.
Cao Cao waved his hand, the horn sounded, and the voice was heavy and long. The attendant releases the prepared deer from the cage. Not far away, several dogs in their hands also barked. Xun Yu looked at the scene in front of him, almost the same as ten years ago, and couldn't help but let out a short sigh. Xun Yu, who was standing on Xun Yu's side, had no expression on his face, but just glanced at Xun Yu helplessly.
"Your Majesty, please." Cao Cao's eyes widened slightly and pointed to the deer in the clearing, Liu Xie also remembered the past ten years ago in his heart, just sneered, and took the bow and arrow handed over by the attendant. Liu Xie took a bow and shot an arrow, and the arrow hit the back of the fawn. The fawn was frightened and sped up. Liu Xie handed the bow and arrow in his hand to Cao Cao, "It's better to be the prime minister." Looking at the Son of Heaven who was so cooperative, Cao Cao smiled slightly, and deserved the bow and arrow, "Thank you, Your Majesty." Liu Xie is no longer the boy he has been ten years ago, he understands that Cao Cao is just using him as a son of heaven today to consolidate his majesty, although he hates it in his heart, but he has a smile on his face.
I saw Cao Cao shoot a deer running at high speed with an arrow, and Cao Cao was very satisfied. The generals of the Cao clan and the soldiers present all shouted, "Long live!" Banzai! Because Cao Cao used the treasure eagle bow and golden arrows of Liu Xie, the son of heaven, the soldiers who came to report shouted, "The Son of Heaven has shot, the Son of Heaven has shot." Seeing that many ministers here dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, there was no expression on Fu Wan's face. Cao Shuang woke up with a shout, just in time to see Fu Wan's expressionless face, and then looked at Liu Xie on the high platform, "This old boy can really bear it." ”
"Your Majesty, the minister was able to shoot this deer because of the blessing of the Son of Heaven. Although the deer was shot by the minister, the deer is yours after all. Cao Cao approached Liu Xie and whispered. Liu Xie glanced at Cao Cao meaningfully, and a habitual smile appeared on his face.
More than a dozen people came up in the clearing, all of whom were dressed in prison clothes, and these people knelt on the clearing. Liu Cheng looked at it and asked Cao Cao curiously, "They're they?" "These people are related to the assassin who just assassinated, and the Lone Gang brought them here just to correct the Fa on the spot." Cao Cao stroked his beard and said lightly. Xun Yu couldn't bear to watch innocent people die tragically, and couldn't bear to close his eyes. Others don't know the details of these people's fighting, but he Xun Yu knows that how these people have something to do with those assassins, they are just Cao Cao's control of the government, with bad intentions, and they have been reckless for many years.
Liu Xie took a closer look at these kneeling people, all of whom were loyal to him, and he was inevitably a little angry in his heart, and asked unhappily, "Prime Minister, can you investigate clearly?" ”
"The minister has already investigated clearly, and the evidence is conclusive, otherwise he would not have dealt with them." Cao Cao didn't even turn his head, he raised his head slightly, and someone put some cloth full of words on the open space. Cao Cao pointed to the cloth to the ministers, "These are the letters they have sent to the Assassins, and if you don't believe them, you can go up and check them." ”
Although some of the courtiers were very angry, no one dared to come forward to check on them. On the periphery is Cao Cao's army of 100,000, not to mention Cao Cao's murder, even if the dynasty changes, no one dares to say a word. After some psychological struggle, Xun Yu's body moved slightly, and he wanted to step forward to stop Cao Cao. Xun You saw that Xun Yu moved, and secretly screamed in his heart. Cao Cao also saw all this in his eyes, his masseter muscles bulged, and his fists behind his back were clenched. Just when Cao Cao and Xun Yu were thinking about how to end up once Xun Yu took this step, a childish voice sounded behind Xun Yu, "Master, it's better not to move, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about Yingchuan Xun's sake." It was Cao Shuang who grabbed Xun Yu and persuaded in a low voice.
If it weren't for Cao Shuang holding Xun Yu, the consequences would be unimaginable. These people have been working against Cao in the court, and Cao Cao happened to take advantage of the assassination to get rid of these people. If Xun Yu stood up and openly opposed it, then Cao Cao would inevitably choose the former between consolidating his position and Xun Yu, who had followed him for many years. Xun You looked at Cao Shuang very gratefully, and Cao Cao looked at Cao Shuang with great satisfaction.
"Then please give your Majesty the order to deal with these thieves." Cao Cao asked Liu Xie for a decree, and his tone was irresistible, not so much a plea as a compellation.
Liu Xie looked at the big banner of Cao Zi fluttering in the wind, looked up at the sky, and said with a smile, "But it's up to Aiqing to decide." Liu Xie's smile was full of infinite bitterness, these are ministers who are loyal to him, today he personally ordered the execution of these people, how can anyone be loyal to him Liu Xie in the future, loyal to the Han family. God, why are you doing this to me?
"Your Majesty has decreed that these thieves will be brought to justice on the spot." Cao Cao turned around and ordered, and with a wave of his big hand, the head rolled.
The kneeling men wanted to say something, but the potion that Cao Jun had poured them in advance made their voices no longer sound. Their eyes were full of longing for life and hatred for Cao Cao. Liu Xie looked at the heads of people all over the ground, his head became more and more dizzy, "Cao Aiqing, I am a little uncomfortable. ”
Since today's goal is still achieved, Cao Cao is not good at forcing Liu Xie to stay, "Come on, send Your Majesty back to the palace." Xun Yu looked at the human head in the open space and stood for a long time. And Cao Cao looked at this great talent who had followed him for many years and relied on him as his arm. Cao Shuang took in Cao Cao's expression, and secretly planned in his heart that he must do his best to protect Xun Yu and prevent Xun Yu from repeating the mistakes in the history books of later generations.
"Thank you, Mr. Shuang." Xun You saluted Cao Shuang and thanked him, and Cao Shuang hurriedly stepped forward to help Xun You up, "According to what Cheng Yu said on the day, Shuang still has to call you Master." You look like this, Shuang can't afford it. ”
Wen Ruo also ...... to the Liu family, "Although Xun Yu's age is younger than Xun Yu, but according to the generation, Xun You is still Xun Yu's uncle, and it is of course inappropriate to call Xun Yu's cousin."
Cao Shuang interrupted Xun You's words and said, "Mr. Xun, it's better not to say some things. I also hope that Mr. Wen Ruo will advise Mr. Wen Ruo a lot, and accompany you like a tiger. ”
Hearing Cao Shuang's words, Xun You looked at Cao Shuang in front of him meaningfully, and then looked up at the back of Cao Cao on horseback. Cao Shuang said goodbye to Xun You and got into the carriage and went to Xuchang City, and the bad guys were also sent out by Cao Shuang to investigate the identity of the group of armed unknown elements, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for the bad guys.
