Chapter 21, Fear of Victory and Defeat
Yes Xun said that he didn't want to hear the "evil words" of Fu, on the surface, he stopped the reckless behavior, but knowing the son is not like the father, and the father is not like the son, what does he think in his heart, is Fu is extremely smart, how can he not see through it? The old man's meaning: You can do this kind of thing yourself, I will act as if I have never heard anything and have no idea......
So the next day, according to Huan Fan's advice, Shixun took the initiative to play Cao Chao, asking for the abolition of the assassination and school affairs: "The power of supervision is in the imperial history, and it should not be set up separately - if there are many doors, it will be chaotic, and if there are many divisions, it will be ruined." Please abolish it immediately, and it can also be in the imperial history. β
Cao Wei's spy agency has had a bad reputation since the Cao Cao era, and the scholars all hated it, and every time they wanted to get rid of it, they would be quick to get rid of it, so Huan Fan reminded Shixun: "Today, the internal and external dynasties all want to boycott the school, and as Lu Cifan sees, the Son of Heaven is moved, and the matter will be done." The lord is the prime minister, and this matter is regarded as the lord, but the heart of the scholar can be collected, if he doesn't say it, I am afraid it will be attributed to Cui Jiqi. β
What did Xun Yi hear? If I don't speak again, this great merit will be counted on Cui Yan's head? Is it tolerable or unbearable! Hurriedly played the grass overnight, and handed it into the palace on the second day, and then released the wind, and the ministers echoed it. After hesitating for a few days, Cao Chao finally made the play, separating the assassination and school affairs from Menxia Province and merging them into the Imperial History Observatory of the Foreign Dynasty.
The edict came down from the Chinese book to the imperial history, and the imperial historian Huan was overjoyed, and immediately patted the case and said: "I don't want them to fall into my hands!" "Immediately ordered the entire government office to take action and dig deep into the lawlessness of those spies - want us to treat them as colleagues? There is no door! In the past, the vicious dog in front of the temple often broke out and hurt people, but now that this dog is in my hands, will I continue to use it to guard the door? That's. Let's cook it and eat it!
The news just got out. The most hated. Liu Ci and Liu Zhao, who also prompted Ding Yi to slander Cao Pi, immediately committed suicide by drinking medicine, and the rest of the assassination, school affairs, etc. are in danger for everyone. Only Lu Hong was not in a hurry, he waited for Shixun to save his life.
As early as the same time as the Xun Song, he had already sent his son to greet Lu Hong, saying that I will definitely save you, and the plan is so, so. Lu Cifan was willing to endure it for this reason, and did not immediately burst out, but took a bite back. Sure enough, on the night the edict was issued, Shi Fu went to see Huan Jie and asked him: "The assassins and school affairs of the public desire clan?" Or do you have to live? β
Huan Jie said, those assassins who sit behind the public case, from Xu Miao down, there are many evil, and I will judge according to the facts. Give them a side of the net, and as for school affairs, "None of them can live!" β
It was Fu Gong who said: "Since Zhao Da died." Although Lu Cifan is in charge of school affairs, Liu Ci and others bewitch the sacred heart, and the lower ones are arrogant, that is, Cifan is also unrestrained, and it is the sin of everyone, not necessarily instigated by Cifan. And he was a guest of Cheng Zhongde at the beginning, and his father was recruited by Dazai (Cao De) as a postal supervisor, and he also relied on his strength. Today, when I heard that the public wanted to punish the school, my father wept and sighed, saying: "Ci Fan is inevitable in the end, but I have known him for a long time, can I not be miserable?" I couldn't bear to see my father sad, so I begged Ken Huan Gong to let it go, hoping to avoid death. β
Huanjie and Shixun are also old friends, not to mention the same party, but also friends, although he said that he didn't want to see his father sad, so he took the initiative to come to intercede, but there must be Xun's instructions behind him, and Huanjie is not easy to refuse. After pondering for a while, he reluctantly relented: "Qing Yan is yes, the Son of Heaven has let the school affairs go to me, if I kill him, I am afraid that the sacred heart will not be upset...... But thou shalt not exercise the law, nor be a chief. β
I can spare Lu Hong's life and just drive him out of the capital, but judging from this man's past evil deeds, he is not suitable to be an official in the judicial and supervision departments, nor is he suitable to be a chief officialβotherwise, he should be thrown out of town to do an idle job. "There is no blame for the sarcasm of the ministry."
It's better to talk about the ministry, Dong Zhao, the new secretary of the ministry, originally wore a pair of pants with Shixun, and the two hooked up together from the time when Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes. "What kind of official do you want to give Lu Hong, mention it yourself.
So Lu Cifan's organizational relationship had just been transferred to the Yushitai, and the officials blasted him out of the capital as soon as he wrote a piece of paper, and sent him to the remote Luling County of Hongzhou to serve as a gongcao. At this time, the county Gongcao was the same as the state driver, they were all idle positions that could or could not be set up, and he was nominally the county guard adjutant, but in fact, he could only sit in the office every day to drink tea, read the newspaper, and do the work.
When the official document arrived at the Yushitai, Lu Hong was not surprised, hurriedly packed up, took only two servants, and left Luoyang by car early in the morning and drifted away. Just the day before Lu Hong left the city, he went back to the courtyard outside the city and summoned a few henchmen and servants-they were all the children of the Yellow Turban disciples under Guan Hai back then, and their loyalty to Guan Si and Shi Fu was even more than that of their actual master, Shi Xun.
Early the next morning, he deliberately hid outside the south gate of Luoyang, and waited until he saw Lu Hong's carriage out of the city gate and along the avenue, and then returned to the city. When I arrived at my house, I saw a man leading a horse out of the door, and when he saw it, he hurriedly gave it up.
It is to see this person again who is weak and weak, with a face like pale gold, medium stature, and long hands and feet, but he has just been introduced by Zhuge Jin not long ago to join his father's disciples, and Zhuge is the younger brother of Ziyu. He hurriedly dismounted and returned the salute, and casually asked, "Where is the public holiday?" β
Zhuge Dan said: "I was sent by the lord to posthumously present a robe to Lu Cifan. The corners of his mouth were slightly flicked, and he stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction of the city gate: "I just saw Lu Cifan go out of the south gate, and he chased after him on public leave." But he said in his heart, why did Dad suddenly remember to give Lu Hong a farewell gift? Isn't it going to be used to shroud the body?
So I said goodbye to Zhuge Dan and entered the house, and saw that Shixun was dressed neatly and was about to board the car and go out to work. He replied to his daily greetings, and then lowered his voice: "I saw Zhuge Gong outside the door, and Yun gave a robe to Lu Cifan for Grandpa, what does it mean to be unjudged?" "You should be able to guess that I'm going to do something to Lu Hong, so why bother?
Shi Xun smiled faintly, and then said six words: "If you don't think about winning, you will lose first." Stretching out his hand and patting the rider on the shoulder, the rider shook the reins, and the carriage started immediately, and left the house surrounded by the guard of honor of Xuanhe.
Yes Fu was still a little confused, so he came to Huan Fan to ask. Huan Yuan was setting up a table and a desk in his own courtyard, basking in the sun while reading, and when he saw that he was coming back, he immediately ordered the servant: "Pour tea." β
There was no tea in those days, even if the daily drinks of the scholars, in addition to thin wine, there was only white water, so Shi Xun started drinking tea, and it soon became a trend - this thing has a taste, and it can maintain health, plus it is not as easy to get drunk as wine, and it has added a new function of showing off (the price of tea is still expensive, and civilians can't afford to drink it), which is really a good thing. In particular, Huan Fan's drink, all of which are gifts from Xun's daily life, are all fine products collected by "Wu Si" from the Tiantai Mountain Tea Garden, and the quality is absolutely superior.
But the son may not be like his father everywhere, he is just a thing in a cup, and he doesn't like to drink tea very much, so he waved his hand and said Yuan Ze, you can pour me a glass of white water - he doesn't dare to drink in his own mansion in broad daylight, even if his father doesn't blame, Cao Miao's white eyes can't stand it. Immediately said his own arrangement and his father's inexplicable actions to Huan Fan in a low voice, Huan Fan groaned slightly, knowing that it was Xun's meaning, he couldn't help but smile and said: "The Lord is a conspirator." β
Whether it was a reply or not quite understood, asked the reason, but Huan Fan refused to say, only said: "Wait for the news." β
At about noon, suddenly a fast horse galloped into the side courtyard of Shifu, and it was the healthy servant of another industry outside the city who came, and the secret report was Fu: "I am equal to waiting by the side of the avenue, and finally rob his car, but the person in the car is not Lu Hong!" Explore the road again, or don't go in disguise! β
was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly ran to find Huan Fan again. Huan Yuan saw his face from a distance, and he knew the bottom of it, and smiled slightly: "It's not okay?" It was Fu who gritted his teeth and said, "Oh, this thief is so vigilant! Huan Fan said: "He has been seeking selfishness all his life, and he wants to kill him, let alone the son, and he has to do it carelessly?" "Yes, do you think he will go to Luling to take office? I'll send someone to stay there again.
Huan Fan shook his head: "If you miss a hit, you will be far away, and you will be called an assassin; The sun is on its heels, and its head will be cut off, and it is a dead soldier - there will be concessions under the command of the son, so why mourn for the villain. The lord has his own plan, and the son will wait and see. β
This matter is not listed for the time being, and it is said that there will be good news in a few days later, and the Kanto region will be in chaos.
It is said that on the same day, Yu Ban and Xiahou Shang besieged Cao Chong in Liyang, and soon Cao Hong also led a large army to come and besiege the small Liyang City like an iron bucket. Cao Chong asked the Yi nationality: "The time is not ripe for Gu Qianyun, Nai Qing persuaded Gu to strike first, and he will die today, what can I do?" β
Yi Yuxin said that I originally wanted you to quickly make some trouble and try to save Shu Han, but now that Han is dead-Zhao Yun protected Liu Chan's retreat to Yongchang, but it has not been spread to Kanto-I am still a step slower after all...... But he said: "The minister also tasted the clouds the day before yesterday, and the opportunity cannot be indulged, and the time will not come again, and the king will either rise up and make a Bo, or he will always be a vassal minister." King Ningbo, Bo must win or lose, how can the ministers lose? β
I also made it very clear at the beginning, if you want to conquer the world, there is only this one opportunity, and when Xishu is destroyed and Cao Chao sits firmly on the throne, then you have to nest in Liyang for the rest of your life to be the king of the vassal - either gamble or die completely. As a result, you have to gamble, since it is gambling, there must be wins and losses, you should have been mentally prepared for this kind of a long time ago!
Cao Chong couldn't help but sigh: "I regret not being at the beginning! Yi Yuan couldn't help but sneer in his heart: Do you feel the preciousness of life when you die? When the incident started, he stiffened his neck and said, if he can't achieve the emperor's cause, it is better to die - "How can you be lonely and live under your children for a long time?!" β
But after all, there has been a friendship between master and slave for a few years, and Yi Ji gave an idea at the moment: "The minister guards the city for the king, and with the tie to it, the king can be easily obeyed and escape, or he can live." Cao Chong thought about it, but there was only this way to go, so he left his wife and concubine, only brought a few cronies, changed into civilian clothes, and used ropes to decorate the northern city at night, sneaking away.
Liyang has been besieged for a long time, and there are often civilians who help the old and the young to escape from the city, so as not to burn the jade and stones after the city is broken in the future, and Cao Bing does not stop it much, so Cao Chong feels that it is not difficult for him to leave. Unexpectedly, just as he was about to sneak past Cao's camp, he was stopped by a sentry man, and the first general asked from a distance: "Do you want to escape without the King of Liyang?!" (To be continued.) )
