Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 383
On that day, there was an uproar in Luoyang, Zhang He moved around, killed nearly ten ministers, and killed He's relatives. A total of more than thirty people were implicated, and Zhang He took them back to the prison. Before Yuan Feng's mansion, More than a dozen scholars were killed. Zhang Xi's brutal behavior immediately aroused the anger of the whole Luoyang. Even if they are guilty, you should be handed over to the court for interrogation. Why did you kill yourself without authorization?

As a result, memorials to impeach Zhang He were piled up in front of the emperor like flying snow. Of course, this was of no use. Zhang He acted on the order of the emperor, and the emperor didn't care about the impeachment of these ministers. He only cared about whether Zhang He could eradicate the grass. , leaving no trouble, in this regard, Zhang Yun did not worry the emperor, his ability is still outstanding.

The ministers who participated in the conspiracy did not expect that Yuan Feng was severely suppressed by Cai and the temple just now. After they had tasted the victory, they would welcome Zhang Xi's butcher knife, or the emperor's butcher knife. The emperor did not give them a chance to defend themselves. The words they have prepared for self-defense can only be taken underground. This situation is really pitiful.

Zhang Xi acted extremely quickly, capturing the essence of Duke Yang, and even surpassed Duke Yang in his ability to act. This time, he acted very cleanly, leaving only a few insiders, who were able to block all officials. As for He Jin, the same is true. He never thought that the emperor would attack him within half a year after the death of He Guiren.

Unprepared, they all became the ghosts of Zhang Xi's subordinates.

The court meeting was held, and the eyes of all officials were completely angry.

However, they never turned their angry eyes on Yuan Feng again, even though Zhang Yun repeatedly stated that the thieves who fell in front of Duke Yuan's mansion were all killed by himself, and Zhang Ji and Xu Yu also died in their own hands. As for Yuan Shu, he left Luoyang early and had nothing to do with this matter, but Baiguan is by no means a dull person, and some people also know when Yuan Shu left Luoyang.

Although they didn't dare to come to a conclusion, these speculations still terrified them. Even when Yuan Feng was among the officials, these ministers didn't dare to look at him again. What else can I do?If he offended him, I'm afraid Yuan Shu will kill him tomorrow, and both the emperor and the crown prince love Yuan Shu extremely
Yuan Feng was not proud of Yuan Shu's behavior, and sat quietly, ignoring these ministers.

Seeing the guilty appearance of the officials, Jia Xu smiled disdainfully, her heart was like a mirror, and she didn't say much. After a while, the emperor went to court. At this time, all the officials dared to express their resentment. Naturally Not for the Son of Heaven, but for Zhang He. Since Zhang He took charge of the Embroidered Clothes Envoy, he has become a sharp sword hanging on the heads of all officials.

Under the current indiscriminate killings, all the officials felt a sense of sadness. If Zhang Xi can kill those ministers today, will he be able to kill us tomorrow?They all bowed down and asked the emperor to punish Zhang Xi's behavior severely. Looking at these passionate ministers, the emperor frowned and remained silent for a long time. Seeing the emperor's indifferent expression, the voices of these ministers also became much quieter.

"Zhang Yun, he was ordered by me to kill the rebels. Do you have any objections?"

The emperor said coldly.

As soon as these words came out, the entire temple fell silent. The ministers put away their original anger very quickly, lowered their heads, and returned to their seats. Looking at the silent atmosphere, the emperor said angrily: "These thieves , Dare to buy the Yellow Gate in the palace, gather people to conspire, and want to participate in the matter of the crown prince, I am still strong, so you can't sit still???"

The emperor's roar made all the officials tremble.

They all know that the matter of the crown prince is the most dangerous thing in the temple. It may offend the crown prince, or touch the emperor's murderous intentions. They really didn't know before that these guys actually participated in such a rebellion. They looked at each other in fear, unable to speak, the emperor looked over one by one and said, "It seems that you also have the same idea."

"Your Majesty!! I dare not wait!!"

The ministers immediately changed their minds and were unable to speak again. Indeed, they had no way to refute the crime of participating in the affairs of the crown prince and murdering the crown prince directly by sending someone to kill them. It must not be touched. Seeing that the ministers quickly changed their minds, the emperor didn't say much. He looked directly at Yuan Feng and said, "Yuan Jun, now, if you tell me the policies of that day one by one, I want to see it." Look, who else is against?"

Hearing the emperor's words, the ministers knew in their hearts that today, they only had to listen respectfully, and they must not speak too much. Yuan Feng smiled, got up, and began to talk about the two policies of that day, the emperor First, he agreed to increase the tax on salt and iron. Now that the Han Dynasty is strong and the people have enough money, their families are rich. At this time, adding some taxes will not have a serious impact.

On the contrary, through these extra taxes, the temple can nourish more people and do more things that are beneficial to the people. The people don't see the power of this at all. They just think that they have to pay more taxes. It is a loss to themselves, but the temple is not using the money to build a palace for the emperor, to take it from the people, and to use it for the people. They don't understand such a thing.

As for the officials, although they understand, they don't want to understand. They hope to show their benevolence and righteousness by refuting such behavior, and show their noble morals. Become a Daxian.

The Son of Heaven hates this kind of behavior, but he can't completely eradicate it. When it becomes unbearable, it's time for Zhang Xi to do something. Yuan Feng seriously narrated his policies, and he really thought it through. It wasn't a sudden fever. He also adjusted some local taxes. For disaster-stricken areas and poor areas, taxes cannot be increased.

Afterwards, Yuan Feng talked about the Three Koreas. This is not the first time Cao Cao has played, and he wanted to carry out sea trade. As early as in Yangzhou, Wang Fu and Xing Ziang proved the huge benefits brought by sea trade. Now, Wang Fu also trained a group of good officials in Yangzhou and was sailing around. When Xing Ziang was an official, he did not have the courage of Wang Fu to send a large number of people to sail.

They could only send Zhang Jiao to lead the people to explore. This also led to the stagnation of the southern sea trade after Zhang Jiao died. Wang Fu is not afraid of any major incidents. During this period, although the ship sank and people died due to lack of experience, most of them brought back enough wealth.

For Sanhan this time, although the temple has to pay some money first, it is obvious that it can still gain more than later. However, there is still one thing that needs to be resolved before the sea trade, that is, the big man must get a complete peninsula. Okay, there is still Dongyi on the peninsula today. If Dongyi cannot be controlled by the big man, the big man's fleet will consume more time and more financial resources.

Dongyi is only a small country with a household registration of less than [-] and a vast territory, which is nothing to worry about.

After the emperor agreed, he ordered Wang Fu to transport relevant talents from the south to Sanhan, and ordered Yuan Feng to fully support Cao Cao to carry out the maritime trade of Sanhan.
