Chapter 378: The Controversy of Zhengshuo (6)

Liu Yu pulled out his sword and rubbed it against Lan He's clothes, which were kneeling on the ground with his head pressed on his head, and wiped some of the blood off it, and then Liu Yu raised his sword again and looked at the official in front of him with a cruel smile.

"Who else is not afraid of death, just come out and try!"

A middle-aged official struggled to pounce on Liu Yu and shouted; "Where the eldest husband died, why should he be afraid of death?"

The person struggled and was about to hit Liu Yu's sword, Liu Yu was also surprised that there was such a self-seeking death, he originally wanted to send the sword to fulfill him, but at the juncture, he still retracted the sword. The man could not strike his sword, and the man was held down by the guards, and he screamed to himself.

Liu Yu smiled: "If you want to be a minister, I won't fulfill you!" Escort him down and keep him in good care. ”

The man obviously ignored Liu Yu's kindness, and continued to curse in his mouth, Liu Yu ignored it, and when the people were escorted away, Liu Yu raised his sword again and asked, "Who else?" ”

Next to him, a fifty or sixty-year-old wealthy official, Hu Heyan, the Shaoqing of Taichang Temple of the Ministry of Rites, was about to move, stood up and said, "Isn't it just a dead ......?"

also learned from the previous middle-aged official's frame and slammed into Liu Yu's sword, the corners of Liu Yu's mouth provoked a sneer, this Hu Heyan knew at a glance that Lu Dao was a greedy person who was afraid of death, and there were quite a lot of ghost eyes, thinking that Liu Yu would keep his hand once and leave his hand for the second time, and he didn't accelerate up when he bumped into it, but obviously retreated. Liu Yu waited for him to collide, not only did he not put away the sword, but instead sent the sword forward for a distance, Hu Youyan didn't expect Liu Yu to reach out, but he couldn't close it, and the long sword stabbed into the chest. Fortunately, he was not stupid, and it was not too late to contain the momentum in time, and the long sword pierced more than an inch. Blood flowed when he landed.

"I want to die. I will fulfill you! Come! ”

Liu Yu said that he was going to stab the sword again. When Hu Youyan saw that Liu Yue was real, he fainted directly with a chill in his heart.

Liu Yu looked at Hu Youyan, who was lying on the ground like a dead pig, compared the saber, and felt that the stab was a bit of a "sting" to death, and scolded in his mouth, "Another faint to death!" "Took the sword back.

"Who else?"

Liu Yu asked loudly, and none of the officials who participated in the coup d'état spoke out. Just now they saw Liu Yu's viciousness and ruthlessness, and they also saw Liu Yu's capriciousness and cunning, at this time. Even if they had integrity in their hearts, they were also shocked by the two hands that Liu Yu showed just now. They also know that there is only a dead end in their way now.

Liu Yu looked around, no one moved, and inserted the bloody sword back into the sheath. At this time, Qi Fang, who was responsible for clearing the rebellion of the Imperial Forest Army inside the palace, also led his troops to come, and when they saw the Qi Fang's department that was supposed to be stationed outside the city, these officials were completely cold, this was the bureau set up by Liu Yu, but unfortunately they thought that Su Dian could succeed in one fell swoop, but after taking refuge, they were affected.

Qi Fang stepped forward. Kneeling down on one knee and reported: "The Imperial Forest Army, those who resist will be killed." The rest of the school grounds in the west of the city are waiting to be released. ”

"Hmm."

Liu Yu nodded indifferently, and suddenly seemed to lower his voice, but he could also hear the tone of the nearby officials, "How many have you killed?" ”

Qi Fang continued to report: "More than three hundred people. ”

Liu Yu smiled: "That's not much, it's on par with this one." ”

When Liu Yu said this, his tone seemed to be very relaxed, but it also made the civil and military officials below feel palpitations regardless of whether they participated in the coup or not, Liu Yu seemed to be just a young general who was twenty-five years old, but he was old and serious, and he was even more calm about things, and he seemed to him to take it for granted how many people he killed.

When Baiguan was nervous about how Liu Yu would deal with the offending officials, Liu Yu suddenly stretched out his hand in the direction of the carriage, and then people thought of the carriage that Liu Yu brought along the way.

There was only one person in the carriage, and Lan Jing, the second master of the Lan family who was beaten and bruised all over his body, was also Liu Yu's old subordinate, and he made great achievements in the first battle of Pinghuainan.

When people saw Lan Jing and thought of Lan He's abnormal reaction before, all this showed that Liu Yu was premeditated, and he was probably aware of all the arrangements for this coup d'état in advance. Waiting for Lan Jing to kneel down in front of the hundred officials, Liu Yu sighed with emotion: "I, Liu Wenyan, treat your Lan family very well." If it weren't for my recommendation to the emperor, the Lan family would have already declined, and the remaining people in the court were just Lan Jing Yijie Lieutenant Military Attaché. What I originally thought was that in the court, the left and right sides of the balance can be dedicated to assisting the Son of Heaven to support the society and the people's livelihood. Unexpectedly, you Lan He defected to the right prime minister party in a blink of an eye, and this world has become the world of the two of you.

You and Yuan Bolang are in collusion with me in everything, even if you are my enemy, at the beginning, you united with Min Shaoqing to put me to death, causing me to live in the Western Regions for nine lives. Today, if you unite with the rebels to plot rebellion and do great rebellion, how can the law of the country tolerate? ”

Liu Yu clenched his fists, so that people could detect the anger in his heart, just when everyone thought that Liu Yu would attack and behead Lan and his father and son on the spot, and the Lan family would also be confiscated. Liu Yu suddenly changed his words and said: "But today you have made a merit in reporting rebellion, and you finally know that you have lost your way." Escort them back to the house, watch them tightly, and then deal with them when the matter is clarified! ”

Among the main officials who committed the crime, Wen Yilan He was the leader, Wu Yi Ye Wei was the leader, and now Ye Wei is dead, Lan He is also imprisoned, and the rest is the disposal of the more than 100 officials who participated in the coup. Everyone held their breath and waited for Liu Yu to make the final verdict, but Liu Yu did not make a decision immediately, but just ordered: "Today's officials, all those who conspire with or do things will be dismissed on the spot, and those who are still in the body will be reduced to the people." Don't worry, the government has already prepared it for you, go back and wait for the verdict. ”

The people below Liu Yu also understood in the first half, but in the second half, Liu Yu prepared something for them in the house, which made them a little suspicious. When they were escorted back to their homes by the soldiers of the New Army, they realized that their mansions had been besieged. Because Liu Yu had already known all the details of the coup d'état beforehand, and even the officials who were involved in the peace had investigated it clearly, the army could accurately surround the mansions of the officials who committed the crime after entering the city. This not only includes the civil ministers and military generals who appeared in the Yuanqiu Altar, but also many who did not show up, and there are many generals in the Imperial Forest Army.

For a time, there were many soldiers in Chang'an City, although there was no nominal martial law in the city, but in the streets and alleys, except for the soldiers and the city defense department, no people dared to go out in such a situation.

Luan drove back to the palace under the strict protection of the soldiers, and Liu Yu immediately summoned the people from the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Dali Temple to enter the palace to discuss matters, and the rest of the officials who did not commit the crime were not allowed to go home, and they all had to wait in the palace.

A lively and grand enthronement ceremony can no longer continue, as for when it will be reissued, Liu Yu did not say anything and the people below did not dare to ask. At this time, there were not only civil and military officials waiting in the palace, but also foreign envoys, they thought that the Great Shun Dynasty should be regarded as a peaceful and prosperous era, but they did not expect to come to Chang'an City less than two months, first the emperor was overthrown, and now the enthronement ceremony can not be held normally. Only then did they realize that chaos was not only unique to their small country, but even the heavenly kingdom was not spared.

There is going to be a third division in the front hall of the palace, and on the side of Fengcui Palace, the hundred officials are still talking to Han Sheng.

There were a very large number of officials who committed the crime this time, and they involved a wide range of contacts, and nearly half of the middle- and upper-level officials were investigated at one time, and it is difficult to say whether the imperial court will be able to operate normally tomorrow. This is only the officials who committed the crime, if the investigation continues, there are countless officials in the DPRK and China who are implicated in this matter, and judging from Liu Yu's vicious performance today, Liu Yue wants to use this matter to carry out a purge in Chang'an City, and these officials who have not committed crimes should also think about their own lives and plead with Han Sheng, the only one who can talk to Liu Yu.

Han Sheng was not very cramped at this time.

Han Sheng didn't hear any news about today's incident beforehand, mainly because Liu Yu hid it from him, and other people wouldn't communicate with him when they thought of his relationship with Liu Yu, which made him watch a military coup like an outsider today. Now back in the palace, with his status as the right minister and his relationship with Liu Yu, Liu Yu should definitely summon him over to discuss, but at this time, like other officials, he can only wait for news in Fengcui Palace, which makes him have to wonder if Liu Yu is already suspecting him of not reporting this matter and is ready to alienate him.

Han Sheng also understood that Liu Yu at this time was no longer the twelve sons of the Liu family who had nothing to do in the chess building all day, and Liu Yue, who had monopolized power, was decisive in doing things in a disciplined manner, even if he noticed that things had changed in advance today, he could still perform a play in the Yuanqiu Altar step by step, forcing the rebel to show up by himself, what an adventurous spirit this is. If it were someone else, it would never let this happen, and prevention was fundamental.

Han Sheng couldn't see through Liu Yu's thoughts, let alone what Liu Yu was going to do next.

At this time, the atmosphere in the Yaqian Hall was very depressing, because there were also people in the three divisions who participated in today's coup d'état, so the helmsman of the three divisions, Wang Jian, the secretary of the Criminal Department, Shi Baiyu, the capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Wu Lin, the secretary of the Dali Temple, did not dare to express their opinions casually. Liu Yu is angry, and if he doesn't say the right word, he may be burned.

Wang Jian and Wu Lin are better to say, they have been in their positions for a long time and know how to get out of trouble, and the changes in the situation in Chang'an City in the past two years have not affected them. But Bai Yu is different, because in the past two years, there have been several changes in the position of the Imperial History of the Imperial Palace, and Bai Yu has also experienced several ups and downs, until the end of the year, he was reinstated from the leisure of the Imperial History, and he knows how to cherish the opportunity. Although he did not participate in this coup, he was also "informed and not reported", he was very afraid that Liu Yu would find out to the end that a monstrous wave would arise in Chang'an City, and then his Bai family would also be wiped out from the family in Chang'an City.
