Chapter Ninety-Eight: Framed
"Something to start, nothing to retreat~"
In Zhang Rang's sharp voice, the morning of a new day began. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Over there, Liu Tao still wanted to play the emperor on the matter of the Xiqiang rebels, but he was preempted by Xu Yu, the captain on the side: "Minister Xu Yu has a book to play!" ”
Seeing that the person who came out of the list was Xu Yu, most of the civil and military officials, including Liu Tao, showed disgust. The reason is very simple, Taiwei Xu Yu and Sikong Zhang Ji have already taken refuge in the eunuch party, and the Confucian Linshi Party and the Qing Stream in the court are itchy for these two scum, but because Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others praise Xu Yu and Zhang Ji in Liu Hong's ears all day long for their 'ability' and 'loyalty', so the emperor Liu Hong still trusts Xu Yu and Zhang Ji very much.
Liu Hong saw that it was the 'competent' captain Xu Yu who played the game, and couldn't help but smile pleasantly: "It turned out to be Xu Aiqing, I don't know what happened to Aiqing?" ”
Xu Yu held the wat board and saluted Liu Honggong before he played: "The ministers and counselors were the court's Situ Chen Tan and the doctor Liu Tao consulted with the rebels to disrupt the party and plot against the party!" ”
The vast majority of people present were stunned by Xu Yu's words, especially the two parties involved Situ Chen Tan and Doctor Liu Tao, who were even more stunned by these astonishing words, and almost didn't bare their two eyeballs out of their sockets.
Liu Hong came back to his senses recently, and his face instantly turned pale: "Xu Aiqing, do you have any evidence to prove what you just said?" You know, this is not a trivial matter, and I don't want you to slander the ministers of the court just out of thin air. ”
Although Liu Hong's face was extremely ugly, Taiwei Xu Yu did not panic: "Since the minister dares to play openly at the court meeting, he naturally has definite evidence. Yesterday, the minister heard that the counselor Liu Taoyan said that he had seen the traitor Han Sui, and he exonerated the traitor several times, and the minister was suspicious, so he sent someone to find a few servants in Liu Tao's mansion to inquire. Who would have thought that this inquiry let the minister know that the counselor had secretly colluded with the traitor Han Sui, and those servants in Liu Tao's mansion also confessed that the same collusion with the traitor Han Sui was Situ Chen Tan of the current dynasty! ”
"Where are those servants of the Liu Mansion now?" Liu Hong's eyes were full of haze, staring at Xu Yu.
Xu Yu gave another salute and replied: "The minister knows that the matter is important and does not dare to delay, and has handed over all the servants of the Liu Mansion to the Tingwei Yamen for interrogation. ”
Liu Hong slapped the dragon case heavily, and shouted at Chen Tan and Liu Taoli: "You two are so bold! Dare to collude with traitors and intend to rebel!! ”
"Your Majesty, the minister has never had any dealings with traitors, so how can he collude with traitors and rebels? The minister is wronged! Situ Chen Tan fell to the ground at the moment, crying out for injustice.
Liu Taogang, the counselor over there, was about to come to shout the same grievances, but Xu Yu on the side spoke again: "The minister has learned from those servants of the Liu Mansion that Liu Tao and Chen Tan have been communicating with the traitor Han Sui behind their backs, if Your Majesty does not believe the minister's words, but now send someone to search the house of Liu Tao and Chen Tan, if you can't find evidence, the minister is willing to accept the crime of slander." ”
'It's over! ’
Liu Tao's eyes were black, and he almost fainted on the spot. He didn't know whether Situ Chen Tan had any correspondence with Han Sui, but there were really letters between him and Han Sui in his study, but those letters were all saved by himself and Han Sui a long time ago, and they were also some ordinary letters discussing national policies, and there was no intention of plotting rebellion or divulging state secrets at all.
But at this time, Liu Tao had already guessed that all this today was the revenge of the eunuchs Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others, and since they could 'interrogate' their own testimony of colluding with Han Sui from their own servants, even if there was no correspondence between themselves and Han Sui, they would definitely be able to 'find' conclusive evidence. Isn't this despicable method of turning a deer into a horse, reversing black and white, and making something out of nothing, exactly what the eunuch eunuch is best at?
Liu Hong ignored Chen Tan's shouting of grievances and Liu Tao's pale face, and with a wave of his big hand, he handed over the heavy responsibility of the review to the person he trusted the most: "Jian Shuo, you personally go to the Tingwei Yamen, and you will be fully responsible for this case." I don't want you to wronged any good people, but I don't want you to miss a bad person! ”
"Obey." Jian Shuo, who was behind the emperor, walked out of the shadows, and fell at Liu Hong's feet with a complicated mood.
…….
"Lord, is there really the martial arts master you mentioned in the Zhuangzi in front of you?" Dian Wei sat on a rather divine horse, looked at the small village in front of him, and was a little skeptical of what Wu Yi said.
Wu Yi straightened the clothes on his body and smiled at Dian Wei: "How could I have lied to you? There is really a person with strong martial arts here, but I don't know if I can recruit him this time. ”
Dian Wei smiled: "Then I will come to see how he is doing, if the martial arts are still passable, if he refuses to be loyal to the lord, I will beat him until he is ready." But if I can't even catch a trick and a half, I won't help my lord. ”
"You guy, don't be cleaned up by others when the time comes." Wu Yi couldn't laugh at Dian Wei's words, he came here to recruit retainers, not to recruit bandits. Can this kind of thing that you want to do with me be solved by violence?
Seeing Wu Yi's team of nearly 2,000 people approaching the village, someone at the head of the village had already sounded the warning gong. Those ordinary people hurriedly retreated home with their children in their arms, but there was a group of nearly a thousand young people, each with knives, forks, bows and arrows, pouring out of the village, relying on the fence at the entrance of the village to lay a defensive line.
"Come and stay! This is the boundary of Xujiazhuang, looking at your costumes should be the Han Dynasty officials, I don't know what is the important thing to come here? An old man stood on the stone mill at the head of the village and asked loudly about the intention of Wu Yi and the others.
At present, the world is not safe, not only the yellow turban moth thieves and bandits in the mountains and forests will rob houses, sometimes there will be a small group of officers and soldiers in the name of raising military food, from the passing villages to collect grain, grass and money, if the military discipline is more corrupt, and even do the evil deeds of plundering, killing and arson.
Seeing Xu Jiazhuang's deep vigilance against the army behind him, Wu Yi had to take Dian Wei, Xu Shu and Cheng Yu to rush forward: "I am Wu Yi, the captain of the Fu Military Academy, who originally served under General Huangfu Song and defeated the Yellow Turban Army of the Bocai Division, and was later transferred to Nanyang to assist General Zhu Jun to pacify Zhang Mancheng's Yellow Turban Army. Now the imperial court is in Luoyang, passing by here I heard that there is a strong man in Xujiazhuang with peerless martial arts, and he has defeated the army of Runan Gepi thieves with the strength of one person. At this time, the imperial court is the time to employ people, if you Xujiazhuang really have such a good man, I am willing to recommend him to the army to show his strengths. If that person really has great ability, it will be a matter of time before he becomes a marquis. ”
Wu Yi has practiced martial arts diligently these days and participated in more than a dozen battlefield battles, not only has his physique grown taller and stronger, but he has also gained a bit of the demeanor of a veteran general in the army in his words and deeds, and it is difficult for people to perceive that he is now just a young man who has just reached the crown for two or three years.
