Chapter Ninety-Eight: Killing the Thief
That night, someone came to Cheng'an City, saying that they had captured the national thieves Li Dao and Guo Yan, and beheaded Li Dao's nephew Li Li and nephew Hu Feng, hoping that the imperial court would keep its promise and honor the reward. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Soon a sergeant reported to Liu He, who was drinking with Jia Xu and Lu Fan to celebrate their achievements.
Then he saw a general leading dozens of soldiers, escorting Li Dao and Guo Yan, and carrying the heads of Li Li and Hu Feng to Liu He's tent.
The general saw Liu He, and hurriedly saluted respectfully: "The last general, Song Guo, has seen Liu Yuanjun. Li Dao Guo Yan two thieves bullied the Son of Heaven, mess with my China, the last general as a Han Chen, has long hated them, but it is a pity that the last general is unable to kill the thief, fortunately Liu Zhijun contacted the group of heroes, led the army to attack Chang'an, and broke the thief army, so that the world re-stabilized, the day before yesterday will see the edict of the Son of Heaven, do not dare to slacken, immediately lead the henchmen to act overnight, kill the thief Li Li and Hu Feng, and capture Li Dao Guo Yan two thieves to the envoy's tent, not to reward the officials, only hope to be able to eliminate the thief for the country. ”
At this time, I saw the system say: "Song Guo, a general-type talent, 65 in force, 45 in intelligence, 59 in internal affairs, 32 in charm, and ...... military generals who are not in the stream."
Although this person's attributes are not taken seriously by Liu He, Liu He is still very polite to that Song Guo, after all, this person caught Li Dao Guo Yan, which can be regarded as a big harm to himself, otherwise once they are allowed to flee back to Xiliang, they may not be able to gather a group of people and horses to pose a threat to their Chang'an.
"It turned out to be General Song, and I had heard the general's name for a long time, and when I saw it today, how fortunate was it? Hehe, the general killed Li Li and Hu Feng, and captured Li Dao and Guo Yan alive, making great contributions to the imperial court, and he will definitely turn the Son of Heaven and honor the edict for the general. In this way, the general will go to the army to receive the bounty first, and then show the general to the Son of Heaven as the marquis of Guannei. ”
Subsequently, Liu He ordered the quartermaster to take out 1,000 gold in the army, reward Song Guo, and write a chapter to show Song Guo as the Marquis of Guannei.
Later, Liu He asked Song Guo about his future plans, but saw that Song Guo had no ambitions, and only wanted to enjoy the next life, so he sent someone to invite Song Guo down to rest, and after the edict of the knight was issued, he sent someone to escort Song Guo to the seal.
At this time, Li Wei Guo Yan saw Lu Fan and Jia Xu drinking together as guests, and immediately understood everything, it seems that these two people have known each other for a long time, and they have joined forces to pit them, so they are all furious in their hearts, Guo Yan shouted loudly: "Lu Sheng, I am sorry for Guo Yan to treat you well and entrust you to your confidants, but is this how you repay me?" Liu He, don't forget his performance today, he can do this to me today, and he will definitely be able to do this to you in the future! ”
Liu He smiled faintly and said, "Guo Yan, isn't your method of sowing discord too immature?" Besides, do you know who this Lu Sheng is? He is one of the most important advisors under my will, surnamed Lu Mingfan, the word Ziheng, a native of Runan, and now he has been worshiped as Jing Zhaoyin and the general of Zhonglang, and it was fortunate that Ziheng was able to distrust each other between you and Li Wei, and even infighting with each other, and later persuaded Mr. Wenhe to blame him for righteousness Anyway, like such a loyal martyr, do you think I will believe your words of right and wrong? ”
"It turns out that there is also his provocation in the middle...... I know, it must be this Lu Fan who deceived the mother-in-law in my house and gained her trust, and then the two sang and harmonized, which made me suspicious of Brother Zhiran, which caused the gap between us to grow bigger and bigger, and finally fought with each other and lost our strength, I knew that today, I would definitely kill you kid......" Guo Yan pointed at Lu Fan and said hatefully.
But Li Dao didn't scold with him, but sighed softly: "This can only be blamed for our lack of ability, and it has nothing to do with Mr. Ziheng and Mr. Wenhe, Mr. Wenhe, no matter what I said at the beginning, I, Li Dao, can be regarded as good to you, right?" Now that I am a prisoner and my husband is a guest, can you say a few kind words for me? If I can get forgiveness, from now on, I Li Dao is only willing to be an ordinary person, and at the same time, I am still well-known in Liangzhou Military Zhou, and I am willing to use my fame to recruit tens of thousands of troops for Liu Zhijun and help make Jun calm the world! ”
After finishing speaking, Li Wei looked at Jia Xu with earnest eyes, and at the same time glanced at Liu He carefully.
At this time, Guo Yan came to his senses, and at this time, no matter how simple he was, it was better to compromise and try to save his life, so he also began to admit his mistakes to Lu Fan, crying bitterly and begging Lu Fan for forgiveness, and asked Lu Fan to spare his life in the past relationship, and at the same time proposed to dedicate his wife to Lu Fan to fulfill a relationship between them.
"I have a fart affair with that woman in your family?" Lu Fan couldn't help but burst into foul language when he heard this, and then sighed and said slowly: "For the sake of the old feelings, I can ask the lord to intercede with the Son of Heaven and spare your people, as for the two of you, since you committed evil deeds at the beginning, you must pay a sufficient price today!" ”
Liu He nodded and said: "Li Li's son Li Li and nephew Hu Feng have been killed, and the others can be spared, so you can die with confidence, even so, I am afraid that I will suffer the infamy of the loyal ministers, so you two should also be satisfied." ”
In fact, this is also what Liu He has already discussed with Jia Xu and Lu Fan, the purpose is to make Jia Xu and Lu Fan feel more calm, after all, no matter what, Li Wei and Guo Yan were really good to them at the beginning, and this is also to repay the kindness of the two, besides, as soon as Li Li and Hu Feng die, Li Wei and Guo Yan's families will be left with some women and a few underage heirs, and there will be no threat at all, and they can still get a favor from Jia Xu and Lu Fan, of course, Liu He will not suffer, He can also lose a reputation for benevolence and righteousness, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Liu He said this, Li Dao and Guo Yan didn't say anything anymore, after all, they were also heroes, and they knew that at this time, even if they said more, it would be useless, but it was possible to put their family members in, so they still thanked Liu He, and then were taken to death row.
Subsequently, Liu He wrote to the emperor, requesting that Li Dao and Guo Yan be executed, and that their families be exempted from the death penalty and exiled to Jiaozhou, and finally obtained the approval of the emperor.
Three days later, Li Dao and Guo Yan were killed in the downtown of Chang'an, and then their heads were hung above the city gate for public display, so that since Dong Zhuo's death, the world's greatest warlord has completely collapsed.
