Chapter 435: Dark Tide
Xu You came out of Sima's house, stood at the gate, straightened his clothes proudly, and then stepped down the steps and said loudly: "Go, go back to Cao!" ”
Originally, the officials who came with him, and the officials who were eyeing him didn't know why, and under the look at each other, a foreigner stepped forward and whispered: "Squire, is it just leaving?" ”
Xu You immediately glared at him and shouted, "What nonsense! Sima Gong is dedicated to the country, which is praised by His Majesty! This official came to visit Sima Gong on behalf of his fellow criminals, what other intentions? ”
The crowd looked at Xu You stunned when they heard this, as if they wondered if Xu You had been taken away.
Didn't you say it before? Take Sima Jun Liwei, will it give the government and the opposition a shock?
Xu You turned a blind eye, a look of reverence appeared on his face, and said: "After today, if there is something in the Sima family, you must inform the official first, and under the observance of etiquette, the official will definitely help!" Do you hear that? ”
Following Xu Yu is also a human spirit, where he doesn't understand, immediately a Lang Zhong raised his hand and said: "Obey the order of the servant, the lower official will go to visit Sima Gong and ask if there is anything that needs the help of Xing Cao." ”
Xu You nodded and strode away.
A large group of people disappeared in front of the gate of Sima Mansion with Xu Yu like farts worms.
The Sima family has always been low-key, not friends or parties, and it is a door, but now it has returned to its former coldness.
"Ah......h
Xu You hadn't been gone long before a terrible cry suddenly broke out in the backyard of Sima's house.
Sima Lang, Sima Yi knelt in front of Sima Jun's bed, kowtowing desperately, crying silently.
Sima Jun closed his eyes, and his withered face, with a touch of relief, closed his eyes forever.
The Sima family's family rules are strict, and Sima Jun's family is nearly a Jiazi, hopeless and incomparable, whether it is a clansman or a slave, they all cry silently, crying and shouting.
The news of Sima Jun's death was quickly transmitted to all directions of Luoyang City.
Before Xu You arrived at Xingcao, he received the news, and immediately patted his thigh with joy and said, "Okay, good!" ”
A group of entourage officials, confused by his changing attitude, don't know what's going on.
Xu You touched the sparse beard on his chin, his eyes were excited, and said, "In this way, you go to Sima Mansion first, do a full set of plays, and I'll go later." ”
Everyone didn't know what medicine was sold in Xu You's pot, so they had to respond: "Yes." ”
As soon as Xu You waited for them to leave, he immediately returned to his house, rummaged through the cabinets, and went straight to the Huangmen North Temple Prison.
A side room in the North Temple Prison of Huangmen.
Zuo Li has been a little fat in recent years, the corners of his face have become fat, and he gives people a rather generous appearance with a smile.
Xu You didn't dare to think that he was really Maitreya Buddha, sat opposite him, and said quite reservedly: "Nobleman, that, Sima Jun is dead." ”
Zuo Li didn't know when, but he also liked to make tea, taste tea, fiddle with the tea set by himself, raised his eyelids to look at him, and said, "Are you interested?" ”
Xu You took out a stack of paper contracts from his arms, gently put them on the table, and said, "Your honor, this is 1,200 acres in Guanzhong, and please accept it with a smile." ”
Zuo Li immediately put down the teacup with a smile on his face, reached out to pick up the stack of land deeds, and said with satisfaction: "It's still you who do things, which is most in line with my heart." ”
Xu You was cautious and cautious, and said, "The few things that the noble man asked me to do have been done. I heard that Xun Servant has a headache now, and he hasn't come out for most of the day. ”
Zuo Li put the title deed aside, looked at Xu Yu for a while, and said, "How many are the Si Li?" ”
Xu You hurriedly said: "I'm already working on it, I already have a lot of evidence, if they are obedient, if they are disobedient, I will send them to prison at any time." ”
"The most important thing is to copy the house, and to copy it with reason and evidence, so that some people have nothing to say." Zuo Li's smile retracted and said lightly.
Hearing Zuo Li's reminder, Xu Yu said: "Rest assured, I am impartial, everything is done by me, and the human and material evidence is real, even if the lawsuit is fought in front of the emperor, I am righteous and righteous, and I am not afraid." ”
Zuo Li smiled with satisfaction again and said, "Okay, remember this sentence." Go ahead. ”
Xu You hesitated, and wanted to ask, but looking at Zuo Li's smiling look, he swallowed back, got up and said, "Then, Xu You will retire." ”
Zuo Limu sent him out, and his smile gradually disappeared, becoming cold and infiltrating.
"Register."
Zuo Li handed a stack of land deeds sent by Xu Yu to the little official behind him.
"Yes." The clerk answered, picked up the pen, recorded the 'income', and then put it in the cabinet at the back.
Zuo Li drank tea by himself, and for Xu You, in addition to sneering, he still sneered.
This person, even he can see, is a complete villain, greedy for money, lustful, insidious and cunning, and smug and rampant.
Zuo Li took a sip of tea, and then saw two military marquis walking outside the door, and left after saluting him respectfully.
Zuo Li's face was expressionless, and Yu Guang glanced at the little official behind him.
'This should be His Majesty's people, the two ...... just now One should be, and that one...... It should be. ’
Zuo Li thought silently in his heart, secretly alert.
I don't know why, he always feels that these people who rely on him as henchmen are not really his people.
Since that trip to Yanzhou, Zuo Li has become cautious, and the henchmen around him have changed one after another, but he has never been able to trust them all, and his suspicions have become worse day by day.
"I've registered it and I'll send it to the palace in a while." Thinking in a panic, Zuo Li's face did not move, and he said lightly.
"Yes." The little official hurriedly put down the pen and answered.
Zuo Li stood up, walked to the door, looked in the direction of Xing Cao, and said to himself: "If this Xu Yu is in the upper position, presumably the 'Yingchuan Party' will have a headache, right?" ”
As he spoke, Zuo Li couldn't help laughing.
Even if he is the great eunuch second only to Da Changqiu, in the eyes of those civil officials from the scholar clan, he is just a 'eunuch', he accompanies the smiling face to the side, even if it is not saliva foaming, it is also cold-eyed, and no one is close to him at all!
Especially the 'Yingchuan Party', he and the Huangmen North Temple Prison are verbally criticized, and they can't wait to kill him as soon as possible.
At this time, Sima Jun's death caused a lot of movement in Luoyang City.
Although Sima Jun's official position is not the highest, his prestige is not small, and he is not friends or parties, and he does things fairly, so he has an excellent official reputation.
For a time, the top bosses who went up to Shangshutai and the chief officials of the Liucao Nine Temples went there in person to offer condolences.
And at this moment, in Dong Cheng's mansion, there was a person who walked into Dong Cheng's mansion through the back door.
Ever since Liu Wei killed a horse gun in Chenliu County, Dong Cheng was very panicked and ran to the capital to seek refuge.
When he saw the person opposite, he lifted his hat, almost jumped up, his face changed drastically, pointed at the person, and said in a lost voice: "You, you, you, ......"
"Why is Brother Dong so surprised?" The person who came was calm and said with a smile.
Dong Cheng's face changed sharply, he looked back at the closed porter, sat down slowly, and said with a gloomy face: "What are you doing here with me?!" This is Luoyang, are you tired of living? ”
Qiao Mao was not afraid, took a sip of tea to herself, and said: "No one knows that I am in Luoyang, Brother Dong doesn't need to worry, even if something happens, it will definitely not affect Brother Dong." ”
Dong Cheng's expression was solemn and vigilant, staring at him and said, "What do you want to do?" ”
Qiao Mao put down the teacup, looked up at Dong Cheng, and said, "Brother Dong, are you still in such a hurry?" ”
"Hugh wants to talk nonsense!" Where can Dong Cheng not be in a hurry, Qiao Mao is rebellious, if this is discovered, his three clans will be gone!
Qiao Mao shook his head with a smile, and then fiercely fixed his color, and said aggressively: "Brother Dong, are you willing?" ”
Dong Cheng was stunned and said, "What do you mean by this?" ”
Qiao Mao looked directly at him and said, "Let me change my word, Chen Liuwang, are you willing?" ”
Dong Chengqian's face changed again, and he said in a low voice: "What do you want to do!?" ”
Qiao Mao said: "That Liu Wei usurped the throne, killed Zhongliang, slaughtered the family, and acted perversely, messing with the world with evil politics, and everyone in the world dared not be angry and dare not speak!" King Chen Liuwang is the person who inherited the mandate of heaven of the first emperor's edict, and at this opportunity, is it necessary to miss it? ”
Even if Dong Cheng had already guessed it, he was still cold, pointed at Qiao Mao and said in a trembling voice: "You, you, you know, what are you talking about?" If you go against the grain, you will punish the nine clans! ”
Qiao Mao sneered and said, "What did I say wrong?" Is there anything that the world doesn't know? Brother Dong, do you not know, or does King Chen Liuwang not know? Now in the Han world, it seems that there is a sign of ZTE, but in fact, it is back to light, and it is only in the end of the day! King Chen Liu, isn't there a little bit of Kuang Fu Sheji, inheriting the legacy of the first emperor? ”
Dong Chenghou's spine was cold, his mouth was dry, and he couldn't say a word.
Qiao Mao was not the first to say this kind of thing to him, but no one was shocked by what Qiao Mao said.
After all, Qiao Mao is a real rebel, after being pacified by Cao Cao, his whereabouts have been unknown, and he never thought that he would appear in Luoyang today!
Qiao Mao stared at Dong Cheng's expression and said, "Brother Dong, now that Liu is out of Beijing, in Luoyang City, except for the young juniors in Shangshutai, there are no more prestige people. It's a great opportunity to do great things! ”
Dong Cheng hadn't digested the shock in his heart, and blurted out: "Don't forget, there are still Zhang Yang's 15,000 Yulin Army, and there are 10,000 forbidden troops in the palace. ”
"What if, these are all transferred?" Qiao Mao looked at Dong Chengdao meaningfully.
Dong Cheng was taken aback, but he still shook his head again and again, and said: "No, don't forget, Bazhou is full of Liu Wei's people, from Bingzhou, to Sanfu, the forbidden army camp in Hedong, to Huang Zhong and Cao Cao in Yanzhou, Liu Miao and Liu Bei in Yuzhou...... No, no chance......"
A smile flashed in Qiao Mao's eyes, and she said more seriously: "What if, then Liu Wei is trapped in Xuzhou, or dies in Xuzhou?" If the people who are not angry with Liu Wei and the usurpers in various places raise troops to respond at the same time, if the Wuhuan and Xianbei armies are pressed, the soldiers and horses everywhere have to gather and go north, and Luoyang is empty......"
Dong Cheng was full of excitement, like falling into an ice cave, looked at Qiao Mao in disbelief, and said in a lost voice: "You, you, you...... Can you do something so big? ”
Qiao Mao smiled slightly and said, "I can't do it, but as long as I take advantage of the situation, once the general trend is achieved, there will inevitably be a crowd of followers!" At that time, we will wait for Kuang Zheng Chen Liuwang, Chen Liuwang ascended to the heights, reorganized the society, and the Han Dynasty was prosperous, only in front of me! ”
The corners of Dong Cheng's face trembled, looking at Qiao Mao, he didn't know what to say or where to say it.
Qiao Mao's words have a certain amount of truth in Dong Cheng's opinion, and they are extremely likely to be operable!
Qiao Mao took in Dong Cheng's expression, and further persuaded him: "If King Chen Liuwang sets things right and ascends to the throne, how far is it for Brother Dong to pay homage to the prime minister with the merit of the dragon and the friendship of relatives?" ”
Dong Cheng's heart twitched suddenly, he forcibly endured his anxiety and fear, thought about it again and again, and said, "I, I, I have to think about it, and I can't answer you now." ”
With your words, can you still refuse?
Qiao Mao sneered in her heart, this Dong Cheng is really an idiot!
But he likes Dong Cheng's stupidity!
Qiao Mao nodded seriously and said, "Okay, I'm waiting for Brother Dong's good news." I have to go to other places, Dong Brother Dan has decided, you can go to the citron teahouse in the city to leave a letter to me. ”
Dong Cheng stiffened his neck and nodded, already thinking about whether to talk about this matter with Liu Xie.
He couldn't grasp Liu Xie's attitude, if Liu Xie was afraid of Liu Wei and didn't dare, then his Dong family would have to enter the Nine Clans.
Qiao Mao looked at Dong Cheng for a while, and when he saw that he did not belong to the six gods, a smile flashed on his face, he got up to salute, put on his hat, and left in a hurry.
Dong Cheng didn't send him, but sat there, frowning, digesting the shocking surprise and fright that Qiao Mao brought him.
What happened in Dong Cheng's mansion was silent, and outsiders couldn't notice it at all.
And the court officials who went to Sima's house to mourn left one after another, gathering together in twos and threes, all full of emotion and sadness.
Xun Yu was not the first to arrive, but the first to leave.
Liu Xie then came out and caught up with Xun Yu, and the two walked side by side, pacing, and said a few words about Sima Jun's death.
Not long after, Liu Xie said: "Prime Minister, I heard that the officials Cao Cao is dissatisfied with the recent rectification of the officials by the Yushitai and the criminal Cao? ”
Even Liu Xie, King Chen Liu, the only younger brother of His Majesty the Emperor today, is also afraid of the 'Yingchuan Party'.
Xun Yu smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness acts boldly and resolutely, which is exactly what Shang Shutai and the officials Cao crave. As His Majesty said, the rectification of the rule of officials is to detoxify the imperial court and cure diseases and save people, and it should be boldly promoted without scruples. ”
That being said, who would dare to do it without any scruples?
Liu Xie glanced at him and said, "Prime Minister, Xu You is the next criminal Cao Shangshu appointed by His Majesty. ”
Liu Xie's words were not said thoroughly, but they were clear to those who listened to them.
Xu You is not Sima Jun, he will not be so measured, once he lets go of his hands and feet, the first thing to bear the brunt will inevitably be the 'Yingchuan Party', at that time, the 'Yingchuan Party', especially Prime Minister Xun Yu, Zhong Xuan, Xun You, who is shooting left and right, will be put in the most embarrassing position - a dilemma!
Xun Yu didn't have any surprise on his face, and said to Liu Xie: "I can understand what Your Majesty means, and I believe Your Highness can too." ”
Liu Xie was stunned and turned his head to look at Xun Yu.
What does this mean?
What does Your Majesty mean? What does Your Majesty mean?
Liu Xie was shocked in his heart.
Could it be that His Majesty really wants to take action against the 'Yingchuan Party'? Xun Yu will sit idly by, and even help the palace deal with the 'Yingchuan Party'?
Liu Xie just thought about it for a moment and felt that it was impossible, so he said: "Prime Minister, what do you think about the affairs of Pingyuan County?" ”
Xun Yu put his hands behind his back, looked up at the palace not far away, and said, "I have read Lu Yulai's official document, but His Majesty did not say it explicitly. ”
Liu Xie suddenly stopped, and said with a solemn face: "It's just that I didn't say it explicitly, so I need to worry." ”
That imperial brother actually pretended to be the head of the house and stayed in Pingyuan County for nearly half a month, who knows what he found?
He didn't say it explicitly, which is the most terrifying!
