Chapter 654: Ten Faults
After Liu Yu finished speaking, he immediately waved his hand, and saw that someone had taken Li Dao's confession.
There are not only confessions, but also all kinds of corroborating evidence collected by the Hebei Army in Guanzhong!
These corroborations include the confessions of many local nobles, as well as the confessions of villagers near the places where Li Dao and Guo Yan hoarded grain, grass and ordnance.
In Bingzhou, Hongnong's side, the evidence of the confession that the Taiyuan Wang family and the Hongnong Yang family hoarded grain and grass in Wubao at home and secretly recruited soldiers is also among them.
In fact, in this troubled era, it is normal for the major noble clans to secretly recruit soldiers in the local area, although it is not legal, but the imperial court can't control it at present.
But now Liu Jian has linked this matter with the rebellion of Wang Yun, Yang Biao and others, coupled with the confession of Li Dao himself, Wang Yun, Yang Biao and others are afraid that they will not be able to wash it away.
Seeing that Liu Yu brought up these evidences, the fire in the hearts of Wang Yun, Yang Biao, Chun Yujia and others had reached the extreme!
They are also all understanding people, and they know that although the people who are confronting them in front of them are Liu Yu and Liu Zhong, the king of Ganling, the main messenger behind this scene must be Liu Jian!
But Liu Jian didn't even stand up now, and he didn't bother to confront them at all, but he was angry with these old guys!
This is too bullying, it's obvious that you calculated us, why don't you even show your face?
In fact, it's not that Liu Jian deliberately dragged it out, it's just that these old guys are really not taken into his eyes now, and Liu Jian has relatively high requirements for himself, and he doesn't want his reputation to be damaged because of these old guys.
Besides, these old guys are fighting in the ring with themselves, do they deserve it?
Looking at the so-called evidence on the ground, Wang Yun stomped his foot heavily and roared loudly: "This is a frame, a frame!" There is no such thing at all, these evidences are all forged by you to frame the old man! ”
Liu Yuyi looked at Wang Yun sternly and coldly: "Wang Situ said that these evidences were forged by us, so I would like to ask Wang Situ, is Li Dao an official in the same dynasty as you, or is it an official in the same dynasty as any of us?" Did any of us ever see Li Dao before coming to Guanzhong? ”
Yang Biao said angrily: "Liu Bo'an, don't be confused, this is clearly a trap set by Liu Deran and Li Dao, intending to frame the old man and others, where is Liu Deran?" Do you dare to stand up and confront the old man?! ”
Yang Biao had already pointed the words to himself, and if Liu Jian didn't stand up at this time, he would be a little too unmanly.
saw Liu Jian slowly standing up in the crowd, he was carrying his hands behind his back, and his face was leisurely.
In response to Yang Biao's angry scolding, Liu Jian didn't have too many empty lips and tongues, he didn't even look at Yang Biao, but said slowly.
"Li Dao and Guo Yan both died at my hands, and the two of them have been convicted of traitors by me before they die."
As soon as these words came out, all the Liu clan relatives couldn't help laughing.
Their laughter was full of sarcasm, and it was clear that it also contained contempt, which of course was directed at Yang Biao.
"Li Dao died at the hands of the general, and was condemned as a traitor by the general, but he would help the general frame others before he died? It's ridiculous! ”
"It's ridiculous, even ordinary Qianshou exiles wouldn't do such a stupid thing, right?"
"Committing perjury for the person who killed him, isn't Li Dao a person who is insane?"
"I can't imagine that for so many years in my Han Dynasty, I would use a madman from Liangzhou as a general!"
"Hahahaha, let's talk about it, how can there be such a ridiculous thing in the world, for the sake of a person who killed himself to commit perjury, I really don't know how Taiwei Yang can say this."
“……”
Yang Biao's face was full of iron at the moment, he clenched his fists, and the green tendons on his forehead were exposed, but in the face of the ridicule of the Liu Center, he really couldn't think of any words to refute.
Because what these Liu clan relatives said is indeed not wrong!
In fact, even Yang Biao himself couldn't understand why Li Jian had to make a false testimony against them and persecute them, so Li Jian obviously died in the hands of Liu Jian?
Could it be that this matter was really not instructed by Liu Jian, but that Li Dao deliberately made it bad, just to pull them into the water before he died?
Question: He Yang Biao has never had any direct conflict with Li Dao on weekdays, why did Li Dao frame him like this?
Yang Biao's heart couldn't help jumping, he suddenly changed his words, and said incoherently: "This is Li Dao deliberately framing me, he deliberately framed me, in order to make me ruined." ”
Liu Zhong, the king of Ganling, looked at Yang Biao coldly and said: "Yang Taiwei said that it was the general who framed you, and now he says that it is Li Dao who framed you, and the widow is a little confused, why do people in this world slander you?" And who is really framing? Are you going to say in a moment that we, the princes, have framed you? Or is it that the Son of Heaven framed you, and the Queen Mother framed you? ”
"You, you, you!"
Yang Biao listened to Liu Zhong's words, and a wave of anger suddenly rushed to his heart.
Then he suddenly felt that the sky was dark, and then he fell backwards and fell on the top of the main hall.
His legs twitched back and forth, his mouth was foaming at the mouth, and his eyes were even a little white.
When everyone saw it, they were all shocked, and Yang Biao fainted to death.
This, what can I do?
Wang Yun said angrily: "King Ganling, what is your intention in treating Taiwei Yang like this? ”
At this time, I heard Liu Jian say unhurriedly: "Taiwei Yang is unwell, so he will take him down, send him home, and settle him well, and then let the doctor adjust his illness well...... Later, come on, send it back to the house! ”
"You ......"
Wang Yun pointed at Liu Jian, but Liu Jian didn't look at him at all.
In this way, under the verbal pressure of everyone, Yang Biao, the dignified captain, was suddenly ill, lying on the ground unconscious, and then sent home for treatment.
And at this moment, whether it is Wang Yun, Chun Yujia and other ministers, or the emperor of heaven, no one continues to pay attention to Yang Biao, but their eyes are focused on another person.
That is Liu Jian, who just stood up in the crowd.
"Liu Deran! Uncle Liu Huang! Liu Braided said angrily.
Liu Jian was very calm: "The minister greets Your Majesty, and meets Your Highness!" ”
He naturally walked out of the line and saluted to the Son of Heaven Liu Wei and the Queen Mother.
Liu Jian understands the rules very well and does not have any transgressions.
Empress Dowager He looked at Liu Jian with complicated eyes!
I think it was this person and Lu Qiang who helped their mother and son back then, but now it is this person who has harmed their mother and son.
Liu Wei gritted his teeth and stared at Liu Jian and said, "Liu Deran, Liu Aiqing, what do you have to say about today's events?" You are the minister of the first emperor, and now you are entangled with these princes and kings to harm me, what is your intention? Are you worthy of the trust of the first emperor? ”
Liu Jian respectfully bowed to Liu Wei.
"The minister is really sorry for the first emperor's trust, the minister has guarded the northern Xinjiang for the Han Dynasty over the years, pacified the Xianbei, Wuhuan, and Xiongnu, and is committed to making the northern Xinjiang rich, so that the people have enough food and clothing, cultivating elite soldiers and fierce generals for the Han Dynasty, and opening up industries, enriching the people of the Han Dynasty...... The minister wanted to hold up half the sky for His Majesty, but the minister neglected to teach His Majesty. ”
"No matter how well the minister's state affairs are handled, he has made His Majesty close to the villain and away from the virtuous ministers, and has made the Han Dynasty look like this."
"The minister came here with a group of princes and kings to appear before His Majesty with his death, but the minister is not qualified to be the head of the man."
"Among the princes, whether they are seniors or years, there are people who are taller than the ministers."
"As long as Your Majesty is willing to correct your past bad habits, the minister will sacrifice this head in front of Your Majesty, and he will not hesitate."
"On this occasion today, there is no part for the minister to speak, because the minister is just a person in the middle of the Liu Center, and the minister just wants to beg Your Majesty, or listen to his uncle's words,"
"The minister is willing to do his best for His Majesty and the Han Dynasty, and then die."
Although he seemed to be reviewing himself, he actually stunned Liu Wei.
As long as they are not stupid, after listening to Liu Jian's words, they all know whose fault is in the current fault of the two monarchs and ministers.
Liu Bianqi's chest was trembling back and forth, and he stretched out his trembling hand to point at Liu Jian from afar, but Liu Jian no longer paid attention to him, but retreated into the camp of the Liu clan.
Xun You stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has something to say. ”
Liu Wei suddenly turned his head to look at Xun You.
"What do you have to say?"
"The minister thinks that since the princes and princes of the clan have entered Beijing, they have also presented evidence in public, regardless of whether this matter is true or not, Your Majesty should first imprison the people involved for the time being, and then hand it over to the court lieutenant for careful investigation, after all, it is a major case of rebellion, is Your Majesty just leaving it uninvestigated?"
Xun You's words are reasonable.
Not only did the Liu clan agree, but also people from the Qingliu family also echoed it.
Everyone, you and I have a word, and they have asked Liu Wei to temporarily imprison Wang Yun, Chun Yujia and others, after all, it is a matter of the Han Dynasty, since the Liu clan relatives have come up with evidence, then they must be carefully investigated, even if they are framed, then they must be investigated first, right?
It stands to reason that if Liu Wei is a smart person, he should get off the donkey down the slope at this time, and imprison Wang Yun and the others temporarily.
Besides, Wang Yun and the others are actually not allies with Liu Bian, and these clan relatives have also hindered Liu Biao before, and temporarily detaining them has no loss for Liu Bian's position.
But Liu Wei, this kid is very extreme.
He felt that his imperial power had been challenged, and whether their demands were reasonable or unreasonable, Liu Wei refused to agree to them in order to maintain his dignity.
Liu Wei sneered and said: "This world is my world, the courtiers in the court, I am the courtiers, who I want to reuse, who I want to punish, who I want to imprison, that is my business, it has nothing to do with you!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Xun You immediately fell silent, and he quietly stepped aside.
for he has attained his goal.
When all the princes and kings saw Liu Wei speak like this, they were all angry.
"How can Your Majesty make such wayward words?"
"It's a big matter, doesn't Your Majesty even check it?!"
"Your Majesty, the evidence of Wang Yun and Chun Yujia and others is conclusive, and the ministers take the safety of the Han Dynasty as their own responsibility, please ask Your Majesty to strictly investigate this matter, and not to force Your Majesty to frame Zhongliang, Your Majesty is talking like this, doesn't it chill the hearts of loyal ministers?"
Seeing the excitement of the crowd, Empress Dowager He stretched out her hand and pulled Liu Wei's sleeve, and said, "Your Majesty, don't offend the anger of the people......"
Liu Wei didn't care about it, he suddenly flicked his sleeves and shouted, "Did I commit public anger?" It's these rebels who commit me again! ”
After that, he suddenly pointed at Liu Yu and shouted: "You are only one of the ten major crimes, and now you are only one of them, why don't you also talk about the other crimes, let me listen to them!" ”
Liu Yu said: "How dare the ministers list the charges for Your Majesty, it's just that Your Majesty has made ten mistakes since he succeeded to the throne, well, since Your Majesty wants to hear it, it means that Your Majesty has the heart to repent, and the ministers will give Your Majesty a good explanation." ”
"One is to favor the traitors, trust Wang Yun, Yang Biao and others to commit traitors, and now they are rebelling, but Your Majesty has not even investigated, which is a mistake."
"The second is the policy of distributing small money, which has led to soaring food prices and unspeakable misery for the people, which is the second fault."
"Third, it was Your Majesty who raised sword soldiers in vain, so that Dong Zhuo led more than 100,000 troops to the west, spending countless money and food, but he couldn't win, which greatly damaged the vitality of the court, which is the third mistake."
"Fourth, Your Majesty treats the people lightly, which makes Guanzhong, the Central Plains swords and soldiers rise everywhere, and Li Xiang gathers millions of people to cause trouble, which is the fourth mistake."
"The fifth is to kill Zhongliang and kill Lu Qiang, so that the loyal and righteous people are cold, which is the fifth fault."
"The sixth is to lose prestige in the local area for a long time, causing Yuan, Cao Cao and other thieves to invade the territory of the Han Dynasty, and this sixth is a mistake."
"The seventh is the failure to govern officials, which leads to political disorder in the center of the imperial court, the proliferation of political parties, and the misery of the people's livelihood, which is the seventh fault."
"The eighth is that they do not prosper all kinds of industries, and they rejoice in great achievements, which leads to poverty among the people and financial depression."
"The ninth is to first establish a new policy, and then abolish the new policy, and change the order overnight, resulting in a lot of maladministration and unsatisfactory local government decrees."
"The tenth is not to accept the words of loyal ministers, to be stubborn and self-serving, and to go their own way, so that the Han ......"
"Enough!!"
Liu Wei suddenly roared angrily and interrupted Liu Yu's words.
Then, he staggered down the steps one by one, his eyes wide, and he glared angrily at the people below as he went.
"Yes, yes, everything is my fault, right? The Han Dynasty became what it is today, all because of the loss of one person, right? ”
"What a top ten mistakes, where is this fault, this is clearly to tell everyone in the world that I am a dumb king without a way!!"
At this time, Liu Jian stood up again and said: "Your Majesty, the ministers are also at fault, and the ministers failed to persuade Your Majesty, causing Your Majesty to go wrong, and putting the Han River in danger, which is the fault of the ministers!" ”
Liu Wei stared at Liu Jian and said, "Okay, good, what a loyal and good general Uncle Liu Huang!" The good people and good deeds in the world are all done by you alone, if the Han world didn't have you, it would have been lost a long time ago, right? Yes?! ”
In the face of Liu Wei's questioning, Liu Jian did not answer: "Your Majesty, the ministers ask Your Majesty to change the way of power, and Liu Qingzhou and King Ganling will stay in the court to assist Your Majesty. ”
Liu Wei said angrily: "You want to threaten me? ”
Liu Jian said: "The ministers don't dare, the ministers just want to help His Majesty's mistakes." ”
"If I don't agree, what can you do to me?"
Liu Yu, the king of Zhao, said: "The Son of Heaven is immoral, if he can't correct it, I will wait for the Liu clan, I'm afraid that I will have to establish a new monarch!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Liu Wei didn't raise any objections, and the Empress Dowager He stopped doing it first: "You are simply bold, you dare to discuss the abolition of the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven was established by the first emperor, what qualifications do you have to abolish the Son of Heaven?" ”
The King of the East China Sea said coldly: "The first emperor is just a Han courtier and a clan member who was elected through joint consultation, how can it not be?" Moreover, even if we abolish the current son, what we want to support is also a person who is discussed by everyone, and we must put the heirs of the first emperor first. ”
As soon as these words came out, Empress Dowager He was stunned.
"What? What comes first to the sons of the first emperor? ”
As soon as the king of the East China Sea turned around, he immediately invited Liu Xie, the king of Chen Liu, who was beside Liu Xuan, to the middle of the main hall.
"Queen Mother, please take a look, this one is not the descendant of the first emperor, in terms of identity, he is in the same vein as today's son, when today's son, mediocre, why can't King Chen Liu's inheritance be unified?"
Empress Dowager He didn't recognize Liu Xielai at first.
But soon he recognized each other.
"You son of a, how dare you appear here?"
Liu Cheng calmed down, and then said: "I have seen the imperial brother and the queen mother." ”
