Zhang Zai and Wang Meng have entered the main hall under the leadership of the Yellow Gate, Zhang Zai has traveled all the way, and the afterglow in his eyes has swept the people in the court from time to time, taking in their attributes.

In the entire hall, there are really a lot of talents, and the political or internal affairs attributes of the people are basically more than 80, and even the single attributes have reached 90.

"The ministers and the state pastor Zhang Zai, take the state pastor to don't drive Wang Meng, and meet Your Majesty." Zhang Zai and Wang Meng bowed.

"The two of you are exempt." Emperor Liu Xie looked at the two of them, held his hands and said, "Come on, give a seat." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhang Zai bowed again.

Zhang Zai sat down, Emperor Xian Liu Xie looked at Zhang Zai, the color of approval in his eyes was overflowing, Zhang Zai is now in power, but the etiquette is thorough, at least in the heart of Emperor Xian, he has been labeled as a loyal minister.

Liu Xie glanced at the Yellow Gate next to him, and the Yellow Gate immediately took two steps forward, and then said, "Your Majesty's Message:

And the state pastor Zhang Zai, killed the traitor, escorted the meritorious, and was specially named the general of the expedition to the north, the champion candidate, and the fake festival. ”

Zhang Zai got up and thanked him, but he didn't receive the order, and said: "Thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, please forgive the ministers for being disrespectful, and the ministers are willing to ask Your Majesty for this escort." ”

As soon as Zhang Zai's words came out, the ministers below were also disgusted with him, especially Wang Yun and several people who were close to him, and almost didn't directly scold Zhang Zai.

Liu Xie looked at Zhang Zai and frowned, no emperor would like a bargaining courtier, but in order to show his benevolence, Liu Xie held back the unhappiness in his heart and said, "What's the matter with Aiqing?" ”

Zhang Zai didn't seem to see the dissatisfaction of Liu Xie and the ministers, and then said: "Your Majesty, the minister's father-in-law, Cai Yong, was imprisoned by Situ Wangyun for some reason, and the minister is willing to use the merit of escorting the father-in-law to get out of prison." ”

Zhang Zai's words impressed many ministers, especially the ministers who had a close relationship with Cai Yong, and saw Zhang Zai's eyes softer, not everyone can treat their relatives so calmly, especially Zhang Zai, with great credit, just in exchange for Cai Yong's innocence.

After Liu Xie heard this, he also felt that Zhang Zai's loyalty was commendable, and his face began to ease, and then he turned his head and asked Wang Yundao: "Wang Qing, I don't know what crime this Cai Yong committed?" ”

After Wang Yun heard Zhang Zai's words, his heart was full of sighs, once Zhang Zai's move was rumored, his love and righteousness would definitely be famous all over the world, especially after saving Cai Yong, his reputation was absolutely famous.

Wang Yun bowed and said: "Your Majesty, after Dong Zhuo's death, Cai Yong openly knelt on his corpse in the street and wept, which was a great rebellion, so the minister took him into custody. ”

Liu Xie heard Cai Yong crying Dong, his face suddenly turned pale, he did not suffer much in Dong Zhuo's hands, and he still has palpitations when he thinks about it.

"Wang Situ, although I haven't seen Cai Weng, he is by no means a great rebel, I hope Your Majesty will see it." Jang Jae immediately argued.

At this time, one of the courtiers came out and said: "Your Majesty, Cai Yong is loyal, and he is a great Confucian in the world, with a great talent, and he also compiles the history of the Han Dynasty. ”

Everyone looks forward to it, it is Taifu Ma Riyan, he has a good relationship with Cai Yong, and has pleaded for him many times, so everyone is not surprised.

Zhang Zai looked at Taifu Ma Riyan, nodded slightly, expressed his gratitude, and then continued to argue: "Your Majesty, Cai Weng cried Dong because Dong Zhuo had the grace of knowing him, not betraying the Han family, and asking Your Majesty to be gracious." ”

"This ......" Liu Xie is still a child after all, and he has no subjective decision about the judgment of things, and he hesitated for a while.

Wang Yun saw that Liu Xie had the intention of letting Cai Yong go, which was not what he wanted to see, so he retorted: "Your Majesty, this is just Zhang Zhoumu's one-sided words, if Cai Yong is really loyal to the Han family, then why does he still accept Dong Thief's conquest, and ask Your Majesty to think twice." ”

Wang Yun's words offended many people, according to Dong Zhuo's statement, the officials in the court can be regarded as Dong Zhuo's party.

In the eyes of everyone in the court, this is a slap in their face, and even several ministers who have a good relationship with Wang Yun don't look good, so a few more people stood up and pleaded for Cai Yong.

Wang Yun also reacted and wanted to apologize, but where was Wang Yun's turn to chatter in the court discussion, and before Wang Yun could speak, a few more people interceded for Cai Yong, helplessly, Wang Yun had to look at a few close friends.

But a few people didn't seem to see it, ignoring Wang Yun's gaze, looking at his nose and nose, looking at his heart, Wang Yun sighed in his heart, the overall situation has been decided, this Cai Yong can't die, but even if he can't kill Cai Yong, he can't stay in the court anymore.

Sure enough, Liu Xie was relieved to see so many people interceding for Cai Yong, he really didn't know how to deal with Cai Yong, if it was not handled properly, it would damage his image as a Mingjun, now that there are so many people pleading for mercy, he complied with the courtiers, even if the result is wrong, it will not affect him.

"Since you Aiqing interceded for Cai Qing, then Cai Qing will be acquitted." Liu Xie said.

"Your Majesty, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, and please ask Your Majesty to expel him from the court." Wang Yun continued to admonish.

Liu Xie frowned, as soon as he made a decision, he was opposed by Wang Yun, and he naturally disliked it in his heart, but Wang Yun was a great hero who killed Dong Zhuo, and if he rejected his proposal again, it would inevitably chill the hero's heart.

"The minister seconded the proposal." When Liu Xie was embarrassed, Zhang Zai bowed.

"The minister seconded the proposal."

"The minister seconded the proposal."

……

The minister who was still helping Cai Yong intercede just now was stunned, but they were also all experienced in officialdom for a long time, and they immediately reacted and offended Wang Yun, Cai Yong must not stay here anymore, otherwise he may be killed by Wang Yun under the pretext of being killed.

Liu Xie saw Zhang Zai like this, and his heart was even more happy, so he said: "Zhang Qing is loyal and righteous, and his official position is unchanged, as for Cai Yong, he is demoted to a concubine." ”

"Your Majesty." All officials bowed together.

Seeing that Zhang Zai and others gave in, Wang Yun no longer persecuted, although the intention of killing Cai Yong was not realized, but it was already the best ending to be able to transfer Cai Yong out of the imperial court.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Zai proposed to resign on the grounds that it was inconvenient for the local army to be stationed in the imperial capital for a long time, which made the ministers breathe a sigh of relief.

At the end of the court meeting, Zhang Zai took Wang Meng out of the palace gate, but was stopped, it turned out to be Ma Riyan, and he was followed by a friend.

Zhang Zai didn't dare to slack off, and bowed to the two of them, and said: "Zhang Zide, meet the two gentlemen, thank you for your help." ”

Ma Riyan picked up Zhang Zai and said with a smile: "I often hear people say that Zhang Zai is a rare handsome, and when I see it today, it is really extraordinary." ”

Zhang Zai still maintained the disciple courtesy, and said humbly: "Matthew Fu praised it. ”

Ma Riyan looked at Zhang Zai who had always maintained the discipleship ceremony, and said: "Zide, you and I are officials in the same dynasty, so you don't need to be treated by the same generation, this discipleship ceremony will be exempted." ”

Zhang Zai saw that he called himself a cousin, so he also changed his name, and then they all said: "Mr. is a generation of Confucian, and my father-in-law has a very good relationship with Mr. Zai, Zai is originally a junior, and this disciple ceremony should be." ”

The two looked at each other and smiled, and Ma Riyan pointed to the person behind him and introduced: "This is a famous general of the current dynasty, and he is also a generation of Confucian, Huangfu Song." ”

Zhang Zai bowed again.
