Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1974 Two big pits

Chapter 1972: Two Pitfalls

"My lord, the officials and families involved in the rebellion have all been arrested by General Qin Jian."

After Bao Zheng bowed and saluted, he reported: "After the next official has been interrogated and convicted, he can be executed at any time."

Jia Xu nodded first, then seemed to think of something, and said meaningfully: "Bao Zheng, write carefully, after all, this is more than 2000 lives, it is not a trivial matter."

Bao Zheng showed surprise. He said it was an interrogation, but it was just going through a process. After all, the crime of rebellion had been confirmed. No matter how carefully the interrogation was, the result would be the same. At most, women and children could be saved from death. But it must also be the fate of being a slave for life.

Looking at Bao Zheng's expression, Jia Xu knew that he didn't understand what he meant, and of course he wasn't going to say it clearly, so he said, "I don't care what you do, I will give this old man a month's trial."

"This... I will try my best."

Bao Zheng smiled wryly, his black face became even darker, there was always a feeling that Jia Xu was deliberately making things difficult for him.

Jia Xu secretly said in his heart, Liu Bei, in order to protect you, the old man has done his best, if you dare to ruin my plan, the old man will definitely make your life worse than death.

After Bao Zheng finished his report, Di Renjie stood up again and said, "My lord, what should we do with the Sima family?"

Jia Xu thought for a while, then sighed softly, "It's difficult."

Sima Fang, the Patriarch of the Sima Family, was the earliest gentry of Qin and Wen, and Sima Fang has always been loyal and conscientious, and has made great efforts for the development and growth of the Jin Army. It can be said that he is the only few remaining veterans of the Jin Army, and he may even have a chance in the future Compete to be the governor and become a big official in the frontier.

The Sima family was originally a hard-core pro-Qin faction, and the outstanding children of the family, such as Sima Lang, Sima Fu, Sima Cuo, etc., all served in the Qin army.

Who would have thought that Sima Yi, the second son of Sima Fang, a hard-core pro-Qin faction, not only got involved with the imperial party, but even personally participated in the coup d'état.

This is not just cheating father, but cheating the whole family!
Jia Xu even wondered whether Sima Yi was born of Sima Fang, or whether he was humiliated and abused by Sima Fang or other Sima family disciples, so that he deeply hated his family?
Otherwise, how could he harm his family like this?
"Sima Yi's rebellion, did the Sima family participate?" Jia Xu asked.

Di Renjie said firmly: "The lower officials have checked, no."

"Oh? Why are you so sure?"

"The Sima family has not a few children who are officials. Sima Fang, Sima Lang, Sima Cuo and more than ten people have all served in our army.

After the imperial party launched a rebellion, Sima Cuo was even more of a gate guard. If the Sima family really participated in the rebellion, it would not only be the north gate that fell. "

What Di Renjie said was indeed correct. Although he could not thoroughly investigate the Sima family because of the war, based on the current information alone, he was able to analyze that the Sima family did not participate in the rebellion. This was just Sima Yi's personal behavior.

But don't think that this is Sima Yi's personal behavior and has nothing to do with the Sima family.

The blood relationship between Sima Yi and Sima Fang is not something that Sima Yi can unilaterally get rid of, and rebellion is a serious crime that affects the entire family.

If this matter is dealt with according to law, the Sima family's fate will definitely be the same as those rebellious families, that is, the Zhujiu clan.

But the difficulty lies in that Sima Fang is a veteran of the Jin family, not only has no fault of his own, but has merit.

But every big family has many children, if the entire Sima family is implicated because one child breaks the law, it is a bit too unkind, and it will easily chill the hearts of other family officials.

After all, if the Sima family can produce a Sima Yi, it's hard to guarantee that their family will not produce a Zhao Yi, Qian Yi and Ma Yi.

This is also the reason why Di Renjie didn't dare to make a decision lightly, but came to ask Jia Xu instead.

Jia Xu secretly scolded Di Renjie for being cunning in his heart, never looking for him when he has good things, and let himself decide whenever he offends others. This clearly wants him to offend others!
This little fox.

Although Jia Xu sympathized with Sima Fang in his heart, he would not break his own principles for him. After a little thought, he said: "First punish Sima Fang for a crime of improper discipline, dismiss Sima Fang and his eldest son Sima Lang, and order him to reflect at home. Don't leave the gate of the mansion for half a step, and deal with the Sima family when the lord comes back."

After all, Sima Fang belonged to the Jin faction, and the Jin faction was the second largest faction of the Qin army. If the Sima family was killed with one shot, Jia Xu would have offended the entire Jin faction.

Although Jia Xu is not afraid of revenge from the Jin family, there is no need to drag herself into the water because of an irrelevant matter.

Therefore, even Jia Xu is not easy to deal with Sima Fang, only Qin Hao can issue the final punishment.

"My lord, General Sima Cuo is also a child of the Sima family. It is now a wartime stage. Just in case, should we remove him from military power first?" Di Renjie asked again.

"No need." Jia Xu waved his hand.

Although Jia Xu didn't know much about Sima Cuo, Qin Jian found him shortly after the war and pledged his life as a guarantee for Sima Cuo.

There are only two possibilities for Qin Jian to guarantee an outsider with his life:
One is that the man is Qin Jian's illegitimate son.

The second is that the man is indeed a great talent.

And Sima Cuo is naturally the latter.

It was also after this consideration that Jia Xu dismissed Sima Fang and Sima Lang and his son, but retained Sima Cuo's military power.

This is actually a kind of appeasement to the Sima family, but it weakens the Sima family's main family line, but strengthens the Sima Cuo family branch.

With the assistance of Han Fei, Di Renjie, Bao Zheng and other ministers, Jia Xu quickly sorted out the mess in Luoyang.

After dealing with everything, Hu Hai's problem became a difficult problem that Jia Xu had to face.

If it is really confusing to say that Sima Yi rebelled and harmed the Sima family, then Hu Hai, as a child of the Qin family, turned against his own family, which is simply incomprehensible.

You must know that the imperial party's accumulation of strength and planning for several years only caused the loss of a thousand soldiers to the Qin army, but because of Hu Hai's fault alone, the Qin army killed a total of [-] soldiers.

One Hu Hai is worth eight imperial parties, he has done what the entire imperial party failed to do!

Rebellion is a serious crime to punish the nine clans, but Hu Hai not only rebelled, but also defected to the enemy, and directly caused the death of [-] soldiers.

But the point is, Hu Hai was born in the Qin family, and the ten clans that killed Hu Hai were the ones who killed the ten clans of Qin Hao?
Is it possible for Jia Xu to punish the ten Huhai clans?It's impossible to think about it with your toes, and he doesn't have the power.

It is impossible for Hu Hai to implicate the entire Qin family, but it is impossible not to punish such a big mistake. If Hu Hai has not been caught for the time being, then he can only punish the members of Hu Hai's family first.
