Chapter XXXIV
"Smack—what nonsense! Get out of the way for General Ben - hurry up and call Wang Fu out for General Ben, otherwise General Ben will give an order, and the army will rush in at your own risk! After receiving Cao Cao's return, He Jin suddenly came to the spirit, Wang Fu, the middle permanent servant, is a close minister of Liu Hong, the son of heaven who is independent and the ten permanent servants, the only difference is that Wang Fu is not a eunuch. According to his official rank and prestige, only he can suppress Wang Fu, the middle servant. How did he know that when he came to the door and was told that Wang Fu was not in the mansion, the general He Jin jumped off the horse with a violent temper and went up directly and slapped a few times.
After waiting for about a stick of incense, the housekeeper in Wang Fu's mansion ran out in a panic and shouted in his mouth; "General, our master was killed in the study, and there was a man in black in the room."
"Come on, quickly surround this courtyard for General Ben, arrest all the people in the courtyard for me, gather them in the courtyard, and kill those who resist without mercy! The rest of the generals followed the general into the palace to check, and then sent troops to search the Chang Servant's mansion, and don't let me go even a mouse hole. When the general He Jin heard that Wang Fu had been killed, the joy in his chest turned into anger, and the cooked duck actually flew.
In the study, Wang Fu sat on a chair, with a pot of wine and two wine glasses on the table, and there were no traces of a fight in the room. It's just that at this moment, Wang Fu and Jin Jia are both bleeding and their expressions are very peaceful, and there is a letter written in bamboo on the side where Wang Fu is sitting. He Jin frowned and took the bamboo slip, he didn't expect that a busy night would end like this.
"Withdraw—tomorrow morning the court is waiting for His Majesty's holy decision, the generals have worked hard!" The general He Jin waved his hand and walked out, he had no interest in drinking at the moment, although the confession of Wang Fu was in his hand, but he felt like a needle felt behind his back. Fear of the dark, fear of the unknown, who can find a substitute for the dead so quickly, not to mention the others, he is sure that Wang Fu was involved in the assassination of the prince, but it is a scapegoat that has been pushed out.
"Something to start, nothing to retreat from-" Xiao Huangmen shouted in his voice to wake up the somewhat sleepy civil and military officials.
"Your Majesty - the minister has something to do!" General He Jin said with a wat board out of class.
"Oh, the General! Come—I'm listening! How's going on with the prince? Ha-" The Son of Heaven Liu Hong's two eye sockets were deeply sunken, his dark eyes and his face were a little pale, and he began to yawn as he spoke, and it was estimated that Liu Hong had another erosive night last night.
"Your Majesty Qijuan - the minister has taken the prince back safely, and all the money and food have been recovered, but at noon yesterday, His Royal Highness the prince was assassinated again at the gate of Luoyang City, and the assassin was a soldier guarding the south gate." He Jin lowered his head and said.
"What? This group of killers is so rampant that they dare to assassinate the prince under my nose, and if they are caught, I will destroy their nine clans! And the guard on duty at the south gate arrested me and asked me about the guilt - what are you civil and military officials doing to eat? I can't see the gates of my house, so what do you want?" Liu Hong was immediately furious, the assassination of the prince was already a breakthrough in the royal limit, and the assassination in the south gate hidden in the army trampled on Liu Hong's bottom limit. Liu Hong turned around and said while getting angry; "Where is the prince now? Why haven't you seen you this morning? He's hurt? ”
"Your Majesty is angry, in the past few days of running, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Zhou Yu are tired, and thanks to Zhou Yu and Cao Cao sacrificing their lives to save the prince yesterday, the prince is in danger. Yesterday, including the previous assassination of the killers, after a thorough investigation by the minister, the two groups of killers have been annihilated last night, and the seven killers have been interrogated by the minister overnight and learned that the mastermind behind a group of black-clothed killers is actually Wang Fu, when the minister rushed to the palace of Wang Fu, he had committed suicide by poisoning with the leader of the killers who escaped, leaving only a bamboo slip of confession. Another group of killers came from an organization called Taiping Dao, and their leader Zhang Jiao was the leader of Taiping Dao, and the minister suggested that the whole country send a sea fishing document to arrest Zhang Jiao and other Taiping Dao demons. Seeing Liu Hong angry, He Jin had no choice but to continue with his scalp.
"What? Zhongchang Wang Fu wants to kill my son, he really knows people and faces, but he doesn't know his heart! I trust him so much, he would do such a thing? Someone came - spread my will to behead the whole family of Zhongchang Wang Fu, so disappointing me so much that she was so rebellious. Come back—give me the Nine Clans! When Liu Hong heard that it was Wang Fu who was the mastermind behind the assassination of his son, his heart was like being stabbed severely, and he asked Wang Fu the most trusted since he ascended the throne, in order to show that he was uniquely favored by Liu Hong, the son of heaven, Liu Hong ignored the opposition of civil and military officials, and gave Wang Fu the position that belonged to the emperor's close ministers. Over the years, Wang Fu and the twelve eunuchs have to be windy and rainy, Liu Hong has turned a blind eye, but he didn't expect that the person who wants to harm himself the most is the closest person, and he really responded to the sentence 'The deeper the love, the deeper the hurt.' ’
The civil and military officials present all lowered their heads under their hats, and now at this time, they all wanted to hide themselves from the place where Liu Hong, the son of heaven, could not see, let alone pick up Liu Hong's words.
"Your Majesty is angry - you have to take care of your dragon's body! The old slave thought that His Majesty did not need to worry about this matter, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came back safely after all. The old slave thought that Wang Fu was rebellious and exterminated his nine clans to set an example; The Taiping Dao was designated as a cult, so that all localities could kill their henchmen if they were arrested. And for the soldiers who protected the prince this time, they were given heavy rewards as appropriate, but this time Luoyang Ling Zhou Xian committed the crime of neglecting his duties, and the old slave suggested that he be dismissed from his position in Luoyang Ling. Zhang Rang, who was standing on the side, suddenly said loudly, Zhou Yu was obstructing them several times, so that their plan failed, Zhou Yu was really not good at it as a hero this time, so he could only take the opportunity to pull Zhou Xian into the water first.
"Your Majesty - the minister thinks what Gonggong Zhang said is very true, if you are guilty, you will be punished, and if you have merit, you will be rewarded!" Yuan Kui spoke out in agreement with Zhang Rang's opinion.
"Your Majesty—not so! The minister thought that Zhou Xian's son, Zhou Yu, should take the first credit for protecting the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince many times, and Luoyang made Zhou Xian busy with daily official duties and couldn't take care of some dangerous forces in the city. When Yuan Feng heard Yuan Kui's words, Ma Shan came out to oppose it. In fact, everyone present knew that the two brothers were singing double reeds according to Zhang Rang's words, the purpose was not to let Zhou Yu be rewarded, but also to make Zhou Xian's face loss.
"General, what do you think I should do?" As the Son of Heaven, he can naturally control his emotions, and Liu Hong at this moment can't see that he was angry just now.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Zhou Yu's ability to protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should indeed be rewarded, and he should be rewarded heavily - Luoyang ordered Zhou Xian's godson to cultivate such a loyal person for His Majesty should also be rewarded, what Gonggong Zhang said about Zhou Xianzhou's dereliction of duty, in fact, Luoyang Ling's official position is only relative to the capital, and maintaining law and order in Gyeonggi is not only the duty of Lord Zhou alone, but also all the adults and generals have the responsibility of guarding the Jingshi, so according to this, we should all punish the crime. Please think again, Your Majesty! ”
The struggle in the court is nothing more than a balance, the Yuan family and the Ten Standing Servants want to take the opportunity to suppress Zhou Yu's rising momentum, and this is exactly what the general He Jin does not want to see. And the general He Jin is not an ungrateful person, Zhou Yu forgot his life and death to save his nephew Liu Xie, how could he watch his nephew's iron arm be broken. And he didn't want to see the civil forces and the eunuch forces cooperating.
Every time you slaughter more dogs, you are always a reader!
This was a sentence that his son had read in Zhou Xian's heart, and he was even more disheartened when he looked at the ugly court.
