Xun Yu fell into a deep sleep, while Liu Bei sat on the ground and fell asleep with his pillow on the stone bed.

Sudden…

The sound of "clang" locking woke the two men up. When they looked up, it was a jailer who opened the cell door, "Don't sleep, you two, let's go to court!"

Xun Yu smiled lightly, and he, who was well versed in the punishment of the great man, retorted: "The two of us have just been tortured, and the Han law has an agreement, and the time between the two tortures needs to be [-] days apart, how can there be any reason for torture so quickly? Yuan Taifu is too impatient, right?"

The jailer's tone was not expressing joy or anger...

"The little one doesn't know, but I was ordered to invite the two of you!"

"Wen Ruo, why are you talking so much to him?" Liu Bei got up angrily, "Teacher Yuan covers the world with one hand, is there still Wang Fa in this big prison?"

"Haha..." Xun Yu tried his best to squeeze out a smile, "Without the king's law, how can there be no king's law among the big men? Hmph, Xuande, let me debate the king's law with Yuan Kai!"

As they spoke, the two put on dark robes and left the prison.

Because they hadn't moved for a long time, the steps of the two of them were a little clanging...

The torture chamber in front of them made them feel so familiar, yet so strange, this is an unbearable picture scroll!
"Xuande, are you afraid?"

Xun Yu suddenly asked Liu Bei...

Liu Bei smiled slightly: "So what if you're afraid, so what if you're not afraid? It's not here yet..."

Can…

Entering the execution room with shackles, both Xun Yu and Liu Bei's eyes suddenly brightened, as if, compared to yesterday...the place is much neater and more refined.

This is surprising enough...

But what was even more surprising was that the person sitting in the execution room was not Grand Tutor Yuan Kui, but... Luoyang Commander Sima Fang!
This discovery made Xun Yu and Liu Bei shout out in unison, "Your Majesty Sima?"

On the other hand, Sima Fang smiled kindly and said, "Xun Shizhong, brother Liu Huang, don't come to Anshan?"

Xun Yu and Liu Bei also calmed down. At the same time, they thought about last night, that bloody coat...the person who claimed to be sent by Liu Yu!
"The two of us are fine, Mr. Lao Sima is concerned." Xun Yu cupped his hands with all his strength.

Liu Bei also cupped his hands, and he also opened his mouth to say something, but the unstoppable tears poured out... came out!
Sima Fang also bowed in place: "You two, I am ordering this case to be heard by His Majesty. If there is any offense, I hope Haihan..."

Xun Yu returned the salute, "Your Majesty Sima, if the two of us...or Brother Liu are really guilty, you don't have to be partial to the Lord Sima!"

Sima Fang nodded, and couldn't help admiring Xun Yu and Liu Bei.

He took out the letter from the box on the table.

He took the initiative to ask: "Have you both read this letter?"

Xun Yu and Liu Bei nodded at the same time, "I've seen it!"

"Then can you clearly identify the difference between the handwriting on this letter and Liu Yu's usual handwriting..."

"There is no difference!" Xun Yu said frankly: "The handwriting is enough to be true, but it is impossible for Brother Liu to have written it..."

"Enough to be true..." Sima Fang emphasized again.

Xun Yu thought about it, hesitated for a moment, and nodded, "This faker... his brushwork is really superb!"

"Then..." Sima Fang continued to ask, "What does the Yulin Temple think about the Taoist Taiping rebellion? It is also from the same line of Taoism, and Tianshi Tao has never thought about overthrowing the imperial court that promotes Confucianism?"

— Confucianism and Taoism compete!
This is a very nasty question...

As a result, Sima Fang, who has always been prudent and kind to others, asked with a bit of sternness...

What is Tianshidao's attitude towards Taipingdao?

What is Tianshidao's attitude towards the court?

What is Tianshidao's attitude towards Confucianism?

The clues can be seen from this question...

Under this kind of tricky question, any answer is very likely to become a flaw and evidence, causing Liu Bei, Xun Yu...and Liu Yu and Tian Shidao to fall into a situation of eternal doom.

Xun Yu was taken aback, and Liu Bei was also taken aback. After the two exchanged glances, Liu Bei spoke slowly.

"What is Tianshidao's attitude towards the imperial court? There is no need to elaborate on this point...Fighting the plague, helping the victims, and resisting the barbarians...Liu brother's purpose is to help the Han, not to overthrow the Han in the Taipingdao. In this regard, Tianshidao It is two completely different routes from Taipingdao, and it is precisely because of this that Wen Ruo and I stand firmly on Brother Liu's side!"

After a pause, Liu Bei continued: "As for... Taoism's attitude towards Confucianism, this point... I don't deny that Tianshi Taoism is hostile to Confucianism, but whether it is hostile or not, Brother Liu is for the big man... Sima Mansion You can also see the disasters caused by Confucianism ruling the country these years... these, the people on the frontier, those homeless people may have a better say!"

Every word is perfect, and Liu Bei's words fit together seamlessly.

After all these words, even Xun Yu couldn't help giving a thumbs up.

Sima Fang smiled imperceptibly, and immediately said, "I will truthfully report your answer to Your Majesty!"

Liu Bei felt a little relieved, "Thank you, Mr. Sima Fu!"

"Since the two of you insist that this letter was not written by Liu Yu, then my lord will find a special person to compare the handwriting in detail. If you have any doubts, you will consult the two of you again. Before the case is closed, you will be wronged to stay in prison for a long time. For a while!"

Sima Fang didn't have any intention of extorting a confession by torture...

On the contrary, this made Xun Yu and Liu Bei uncomfortable.

After all, the last time... they came to this cell, but they almost lost half their lives!
It seems to have noticed the astonishment of the two of them...

Sima Fang then asked: "What else do you two want to say?"

Liu Bei and Xun Yu looked at each other and shook their heads...

Sima Fang waved his hand, "Then go to rest, I will arrange for you to change cells, and I will also arrange for a doctor to treat you in prison."

Liu Bei and Xun Yu had no choice but to bow and salute, and the jailer led them out in disbelief.

And when they go out...

Sima Fang got up slowly, and Jian Shuo came out from behind the curtain...

Sima Fang politely gave up his seat.

Jian Shuo said: "Their injuries don't look serious, but after all they didn't hurt their bones. They will take care of them for at least a month. I will report the truth to His Majesty. As for the two of them, Mr. Sima must take good care of them..."

Speaking of this, Jian Shuo seemed to have something to say, but he opened his mouth and finally swallowed the words.

Sima Fang hurriedly asked: "Lieutenant Jian, if you have something to say, you might as well speak up."

Jian Shuo paused again, and then opened his mouth, "Your Majesty is very concerned about this case, but His Majesty doesn't want to put too much pressure on you. After all, I can't help but want to ask, how do you plan to investigate this case?"

Sima Fang said with emotion: "Liu Xuande, Xun Wenruo... and Taiwei Qiao, Cao Dasinong... So many people are protecting Liu Yu, I wonder... Is there really a possibility that this letter is someone deliberately forging For Liu Yu! This person can imitate Liu Yu's handwriting, and can also enter and exit the Taoist temples and sub-altars of Taiping Dao... His status in Taiping Dao must be extraordinary. Whether there are high-level people in Taiping Dao and calligraphy is outstanding. Let's investigate from this , may be able to find out the clues of the counterfeiter? Besides... there is the letter itself."

"Myself?" Jian Shuo asked with a question mark on his face.

While thinking, Sima Fang continued: "A person's handwriting and brushwork... are all unique to him, and have his inner soul. The most imitated words are tangible, and the soul cannot be learned... There are three eloquent aspects in this letter. More than a hundred words, word by word comparison, may be able to find some clues and clues... but..."

"Just what?" Jian Shuo seemed to see hope.

Sima Fang continued: "I need Liu Yu's own handwriting, and... I need a calligraphy master!"

"Haha..." Hearing this, Jian Shuo laughed, "I'll help you find Liu Yu's own handwriting. As for the calligraphers, isn't Master Cai Yong waiting there? Presumably...he's been waiting so hard! "

Sima Fang nodded lightly...

What is the relationship between Cai Yong and Liu Yu, as the Luoyang order, he will not be unaware.

Ha ha... really answered that sentence.

--Moral support from many, scant support!

...

...

On the brows of the moon, the dark night is like a rock...

Liu Yu was writing something under the candlelight, and he would write every handwriting on the letter paper five times repeatedly.

Simulate writing in various situations, cursive script when you are in a hurry, regular script when you are serious, and... Lishu, Xiaozhuan... Any handwriting he can think of will be written on this bamboo slip.

In just [-] words, he wrote more than [-] words, a total of ten bamboo slips.

Cao Cao quickly sent each volume to Cai's mansion as soon as it was written.

The moon star is rare...

Cai Mansion is brightly lit.

Zhao Siniang fell asleep half an hour ago with Cai Zhaoji in her arms, but Cai Yong... here, is doomed to sleepless.

Sima Fang is also here... He seems to have made plans to live in the Cai Mansion, and he won't leave unless he checks his handwriting.

However, Sima Fang was always restless.

It was Cai Yong who saw his nervousness. "Has Mr. Sima Fu already determined that the letter was not written by Guanzhu Liu?"

Sima Fang squinted at Cai Yong, wanting to deny...

After all, he still raised his hand, "How did Mr. Cai find out?"

Cai Yong laughed and said, "Firstly, Mr. Simafu is so restless, and secondly...others don't know, Mr. Simafu has eyes and ears all over Luoyang, so how could he not know my origin with this Yulin Liulang? Haha, Mr. Simafu picked me to compare As for the handwriting, it is not obvious that the letter has nothing to do with Guanzhu Liu!"

"Ha ha…"

Sima Fang laughed, "People say that Mr. Qiaoxuanqiao is straightforward, and he never hides what he has in mind, and he never thought about it... Your Master Cai is also so direct, don't talk about it... What clues can you find from the handwriting? ?”

Back to the topic, Cai Yong's expression suddenly became serious.

"Actually... there are clues."

"Look, Lord Sima, although the handwriting on this letter is very similar to Liu Yu's, but if you look closely, you will find that no matter what kind of writing method Liu Yu uses, the end of his handwriting will always rise slightly, especially this one. A 'tick', even if it is written in quite orthodox regular script, but the end of each word on this letter paper does not rise, and people who know how to do it can tell by this alone that this is a copy..."

After talking a lot, Cai Yong stroked his beard and made a comparison with a few words.

Immediately fell into a slight meditation.

"But I have to say that the calligraphic attainments of this imitator are not simple. Although I can't tell where he came from, I have a feeling that this cursive script is quite like the originator of cursive script 'Zhang Zhi', and Zhang Zhi's Disciple, there are not many in this world!"

Hmm... Zhang Zhi's disciple?

Daigo empowerment.

Sima Fang's eyes widened all of a sudden, "Master Cai, Master Cai, as expected of you...haha, this word is better than me running around like a headless fly for a long time...Zhang Zhi, haha...this is This master is still alive, and his disciples will definitely not be some unknown people..."

"How many days will it take for Lord Simafu?" Cai Yong asked back.

"For me, it will take a long time, but...someone cares about this side," Sima Fang suddenly raised his boundless confidence...

"It's best..." Cai Yong said in a gentle tone, "I can get some handwritings written by Zhang Zhi's disciples. If I compare them in this way, it will be easier for me to find out where the handwriting belongs."

Sima Fang nodded heavily...

Finally, there is a direction!
...

...

Luoyang Imperial Palace, the Hall of Longevity.

"Hahaha…"

After Jian Shuo reported the news from Sima Fang to Emperor Liu Hong, he burst out laughing heartily.

It just so happened that Taiwei Qiaoxuan was also there...he just arrived not long ago.

But Qiao Xuan was very surprised.

It's not like that... It's just that the case has some clues, so the dust is not settled, so you can't be so happy, right?
In addition, His Majesty's position seems a bit too clear.

"Your Majesty... seems very happy today."

Changing from the haze of the past, Qiao Xuan rarely saw such a happy emperor...

Liu Hong said with a smile: "I'm in a good mood today, but it's not just because this case has some clues... more because..."

While speaking, Liu Hong winked, and Zhang Rang quickly handed a stack of memorials to Qiao Xuan.

Qiao Xuan was also polite, and quickly unfolded.

It's okay if it doesn't unfold, but when it unfolds...it's shocking.

"Your Majesty... this... this..."

After all, it is this Taiwei Qiaoxuan who is always talkative, at this moment, his tone is a little choked up...

"Haha...hahahaha..."

Liu Hong couldn't stop laughing...

While laughing, he said with emotion: "Did you see it? This is the Lord Yulin Temple. He has something to do. All the people in Nanyang presented the Wanmin letter, and the entire Nanyang clan presented the bamboo slips. Please also join hands to play..."

In fact, the facts are more exaggerated than what Liu Hong said.

The generals of Yuntai's 28 generals... They are not asking for a performance, they are simply throwing money at them!

Just one word...

Your Majesty, just quote a price and fill in the number, as long as Liu Yu can be exchanged for innocence, how much will they pay... They are willing to do whatever they want!
call…

Take a long breath.

Shocked... Qiao Xuan was deeply shocked.

And for a while, he seemed to understand the emperor very well...

Tianzi Longyan Dayue, not because of this case, but because of... Because of Liu Yu's energy, in just half a year, he has gathered a force, a force that cannot be ignored, and this force... Although it is only A single spark, but in the future, it may not be impossible to compete with the huge and intertwined Runan Yuan family with the momentum of a prairie fire!

"Qiao Taiwei..." Liu Hong narrowed his eyes, "I have realized something! In this world, there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests..."

"Liu Yu has set an example for me. Driven by interests, there is no indestructible alliance, and there is no bond that cannot be separated. ' Words, the Han Empire is bound to rejuvenate!"

hiss…

Qiao Xuan took a light breath, and then said: "Your Majesty... I have a different understanding!"

--"Tell me!"

——"Those who gain the way will help more, and those who lose the way will help less. When there is little help, relatives will fight. If there is a lot of help, the world will obey. If the world is smooth, attack the relatives. Therefore, a gentleman does not fight , the battle must be won."

hiss…

This time it was the emperor Liu Hong who was moved.

——"What a celestial master who gets the way and gets help, what a peaceful way who loses the way and doesn't get help! If you help as much as possible, the world will follow it, and the battle will be won!"
