Three Kingdoms: Cao Cao and Liu Bei help me to ascend the throne

Chapter 233 It's a banquet at the Hongmen, and it's also about inviting you into the urn!

Indeed, Liu Yu had never drank the wine Yuan Shao handed over.

That glass of mellow green plum wine just passed Liu Yu's mouth once, and immediately spit it on the silk handkerchief that wiped her mouth.

In order to confuse Yuan Shao, Liu Yu specially practiced many times, how to spit out the wine, how... the cloud is light and the wind is light, and it is not noticed.

And the reason for doing this...

It was because of the night before.

The moon is at the brow, the night is like a rock...

In the secret room under the Yulin Temple, Liu Yu, the saint of the Heavenly Master, and his wife Zhang Yulan sat on the main seat.

A group of ghost soldiers in front of them are standing and waiting, and the first person is reporting back.

"This afternoon, He Guiren and Wang Meiren in the palace met in Jiaofang Hall. Half a day later, the servant He Jin made a special trip to the palace to meet his younger sister He Guiren. The two meetings... They both talked for a long time!"

The ghost soldier reported, and put a hand scroll on the table, which depicted He Jin persuading He Guiren and... He Guiren giving instructions to Wang Meiren with arrogance.

The second ghost soldier replied: "It has been found out that Wang Meiren is pregnant for two months. Before He Guiren came, she was always terrified, but after coming, she seemed to be much safer, but also seemed to be even more frightened." After that, Wang Meiren specially summoned Princess Wannian and stayed her in Jiaofang Palace for one night."

The handkerchief unfolds…

This picture scroll is more delicate.

It even depicts the eyes of Wang Meiren and He Guiren when they meet and after they meet.

There is also a picture of Princess Wannian and Wang Meiren happily chatting and chatting happily. Of these two women, one has no mother, and the other has not yet had a child.
The third ghost soldier reported back: "He Jin and Yuan Shao have been meeting frequently recently... Tonight, the two of them took a few guards and rushed to a restaurant of the Yuan family's own, but it didn't seem like they were drinking, but more like they were observing and planning."

The handkerchief unfolds…

It was the scene of He Jin and Yuan Shao appearing outside the restaurant. This restaurant...Liu Yu is very familiar with it. It is the place where the "good brother" Yuan Shaoyue will drink by himself tomorrow.

It was also the place where the two of them often drank in the past.

What the ghost soldiers behind reported were all information from outside Luoyang...it had nothing to do with the overall situation.

And with Liu Yu waving her hand...

These ghost soldiers retreated one after another, only Liu Yu and Zhang Yulan were left.

"Madam is so amazing, she has been able to insert the eyes of a celestial master into the palace... Whether it is information or scrolls, it is so delicate!"

Liu Yu sighed with emotion.

Because of Xun Yu's wife Tang's reminder before, Liu Yu realized that the palace... might attack him.

So Liu Yu mentioned to Zhang Yulan that she wanted to plant some eyes in the palace.

This is just a mention...

Who would have thought that Zhang Yulan actually placed her eyeliner in the palace!
At this time, Zhang Yulan smiled when she heard her husband's compliment, "Are you complimenting me?"

After one sentence, Zhang Yulan's tone became serious, "Didn't you say that, the prosperity of the world is for profit, the world's hustle and bustle is for profit, and money can make ghosts grind... As long as profit moves forward, heavy There must be a brave man under the reward... any kind of information can be obtained."

"Ha ha…"

Liu Yu smiled...

Exchanging money for information is the most reliable and practical method. He is well versed in the essence of it, but Zhang Yulan has also learned it very quickly.

It is precisely that money is the most indispensable thing in Yulin Temple today.

"What do you think about these things, my husband?" Zhang Yulan was a little concerned about Liu Yu, "Tomorrow, Yuan Benchu ​​will invite you to drink... With these events, it seems that it will not be easy."

"There is no good wine in wine, and there is no good banquet in banquets..." Liu Yu sighed with emotion.

"So... it really is a Hongmen Banquet?" Zhang Yulan gritted her teeth, she was worried about Liu Yu's safety.

Liu Yu waved his hand, "Anyway, I am also an official of the imperial court. No matter how much Yuan Benchu ​​hated me, he would not openly assassinate me. This would make him... the entire Runan Yuan family fall into a vortex of public opinion."

that…

Zhang Yulan gritted her teeth. "What would he... how would he do it?"

"I don't know either." Liu Yu spread his hands and said, at this moment... He Jin, He Guiren, Wang Meiren, Yuan Shao, Princess Wannian...everyone who appeared in the information flashed in his mind.

What can these people do together?What will be done?

"Or, I'll accompany you tomorrow...to protect you." Zhang Yulan suggested, "Yuan Shao's kung fu is not strong, and I'm sure to catch him within five moves. With me around, at least he doesn't dare to play tricks!"

"Then we'll startle the snake..." Liu Yu's words were beyond Zhang Yulan's expectation...

He doesn't care about his own safety...but cares about "striking grass and scaring snakes"!
So... who is the grass?Who is the snake?
Liu Yu's next words surprised Zhang Yulan even more, "I have never regarded Yuan Shao as a big brother. He is the son of the Yuan family in Runan, and he will always represent the position of the Yuan family in Runan. I used to drink with him and get close to him. , to investigate the movements of the Yuan Clan in Runan, and to overthrow this big family that hinders the development of the Taoist sect!"

"Now, Grand Tutor Yuan Kai has resigned and returned to his hometown, and Sikong Yuanfeng's head is in a different place. The next thing to solve... must be Yuan Shao, the eldest son of the Yuan family in Runan, and he also treats me like this...so, you can't startle the snake. Take advantage of this opportunity!"

Speaking of here…

Liu Yu gritted her lips slightly, and he thought carefully.

And this thought took a full hour.

The long meditation allowed him to completely connect the whole story,

Yuan Shao entrusted He Jin to visit He Guiren;
Since He Guiren went to Jiaofang Hall to meet Wang Meiren;

Since Wang Meiren invited Princess Wannian to Jiaofang Hall;
Could it be... Yuan Shao intends to use his identity as Princess Wannian to do something?

If so... how would he use Princess Wannian?How to do it?
and many more…

When thinking of this, Liu Yu suddenly understood, he found that he had fallen into a misunderstanding, he didn't need to figure out the whole story of this matter at all.

As long as Yuan Shao makes a move, then he...will definitely lose!
because…

The appearance of Wang Yue in the Ma Yuanyi incident last time made Liu Yu realize that the emperor has always arranged for someone to protect him...

Or to be more precise, they were monitoring him, and this monitoring... was enough to completely disintegrate all of Yuan Shao's plans, and even... lead him into a situation where he would never be able to recover.

And what Liu Yu needs is evidence...

As for the evidence, it's too simple. If Yuan Shao intends to use the identity of Princess Wannian tomorrow, then Princess Wannian will definitely leave the palace, and the princess's leaving the palace is definitely not a small incident. There will be more places...  

Any link...is evidence!
"Tomorrow, arrange all our eyeliners to watch all the doors of the palace...everyone who comes out of the palace, the sedan chair...all must be watched!"

Liu Yu began to order, "Also, once you find something strange... or if you find a sedan chair, or there is a princess Wannian hidden in the vehicle, don't say anything... When she comes back, find a way... to reveal it! This is what Yuan Benchu ​​absolutely can't do. Clean up the evidence!"

This…

Zhang Yulan looked at Liu Yu, that delicate face, that cold and stubborn expression, and those fierce eyes that were like burning flames all made her heart tremble.

Husband...

Has everything been planned in such a short time?
He turned himself, who was originally a pawn, into a chessboard overnight...to lure Yuan Shao into the game.

"Will this be dangerous?" Zhang Yulan gritted her teeth...

Liu Yu took a deep breath and shook her head.

After a long time, he said with emotion: "I'm afraid it's Yuan Gonglu who is in danger! I wish so much, all of this is what I was thinking about, but unfortunately... After all, I am in a different camp from Yuan Shao, and I will never be a true brother!"

"Gudong..."

Zhang Yulan swallowed, she wanted to say something more.

But when the words came to his lips...he swallowed them all.

For a moment, he felt Yuan Shao's horror, but Yuan Shao was certainly scary... Isn't her husband Liu Yu scary?

Machinations... This is a battlefield without gunpowder smoke!
"Let's go!"

Recalling the story here, Liu Yu stretched her waist again and suggested.

Who would have thought that... just now he was still as thin as a gossamer, dying, but now... he has changed his appearance.

"Where?"

Xun Or asked...

"Fu Ya!" Liu Yu looked back at Xun He, "I really don't understand Eucalyptus!"

There was nothing to say along the way, and after a while, Liu Yu and his party arrived at the government office.

Qiao Xuan had to avoid it for a while because of his title of Taiwei, while Liu Yu, Xun He, and Zhang Fei stepped into the court together.

never thought...

As soon as they arrived on this side, on the other side...someone is going to tell Zhang Fei to come!
"Isn't it the trial of Yuan Shao?" Xun You asked suspiciously.

"Lieutenant Yuan has already interrogated, because the royal princess is involved, so... need to report to the Minister of Dali Temple, and His Majesty will personally preside over the interrogation." Fubing answered truthfully.

"Then why did you pass it on to me?" Zhang Fei scratched his head in confusion.

"Lieutenant Yuan mentioned that there was a black-faced strong man who hijacked the imperial court official and killed Captain Xiyuan..."

Zhang Fei was taken aback by Fu Bing's words...

It turned out that the "gentlemen's agreement" between Yuan Shao and Xun Yu was completely broken when Princess Wannian was found back in the palace. Naturally, Yuan Shao would not let it go and told all about what happened in the restaurant just now.

Liu Yu's expression showed a bit of worry...

While talking, Zhang Fei has been "invited" to court!

"The person in the hall is Zhang Fei Zhang Yide?"

"I am!"

"Are you guilty?" Sima Fang looked up slightly, raised his head, and circled the lobby with his penetrating gaze, and finally... his gaze fell on Zhang Fei.

...

...

Emperor Liu Hong's carriage was still galloping towards Luoyang.

Even so, Liu Hong kept urging the guards of the West Garden who were driving the horses, "Hurry up, hurry up!" …

As if, his heart was always on hold, worrying endlessly...

It's no wonder, one is his most valued son and the other is his daughter, if it is really over, he, Liu Hong Longyan, is furious and wants to crush Yuan Shao's heart.

at this time…

The sound of "da da da" horseshoes approaching from far away...

"Your Majesty..." The guard immediately got off his horse, "Yuan Shao has been captured by Lord Sima, and Princess Wannian has also been sent back to the palace. Because Shi Zhong and Captain Qiao arrived, they bought some time, and Yuan Shao's treacherous schemes were never caught. punish!"

call…

Hearing these words, the stone that Liu Hong raised in his mind finally landed safely.

He immediately ordered, "Pass down my will, rest on the spot..."

"Here!" The guards of the West Garden replied... They have been running for a whole day and night with man and horse... People can bear it, but the horse has to rest.

Now that His Majesty gave such an order, it was like an amnesty to every guard of the West Garden and every horse.

"How about Liu Yu?"

Liu Hong continued to ask the messenger... "Reporting to Your Majesty, Guanzhu Liu is as usual, and has already rushed to the government office on foot to watch the interrogation of Yuan Shao by Lord Sima."

Hmm... interrogation?
Liu Hong narrowed his eyes, "How did Mr. Sima Fu interrogate?"

"Your Majesty Sima has not opened the court!" The messenger continued: "It is about the princess of the royal family. Without His Majesty's will and without the intervention of the Minister of Dali Temple, the Lord Sima did not dare to interrogate...just put Yuan Shao and He Jin in prison!"

"He did a good job!" Liu Hong nodded.

But the messenger's words were not over yet, "Your Majesty, it's true... the Sima Mansion is going to interrogate a man named Zhang Fei and named Yide, who is Yulin Guanliu Yu's subordinate. I heard... this time he was the first to break in and rescued him." Liu Yu...it's just that he accidentally killed a few lieutenants of the Xiyuan school, and kidnapped the court officials!"

Well…

Hearing Zhang Fei's actions, Liu Hong narrowed his eyes slightly, and he closed his eyes and thought for a moment.

Finally, he uttered a sentence lightly.

"Why interrogate him? This time, Fei Zhang Yide has done nothing wrong!"

After saying this, Liu Hong pointed to the official road ahead, "How far is it from Luoyang City..."

"An hour!"

"Okay, enough rest!" Liu Hong ordered immediately, "Put my will in, let's go!"

This is out of the way...

All the captains of Xiyuan were also drunk, what a short rest... This is like a joke!
...

...

In Luoyang City, the lobby of the Government Office.

Facing Sima Fang's sharp gaze, Zhang Fei showed no fear, "I'm saving people, what's my crime?"

Sima Fang gave him a cold look, "My lord asks you, how do you know that Guanzhu Liu is in trouble, and you happen to have the right time to rush in to save people?"

In fact, Xun Yu had been thinking about how to answer Sima Fang if he asked this question!

Now that I really asked the question, Xun Yu still didn't think of the best answer, and hesitated for a while.

Zhang Fei didn't know anymore. He looked at Xun He and scratched his head, not knowing what to say.

"What?" Sima Fang waited for a moment, then his tone became slightly harsher, "Can't you answer this question?" …

"No...I..."

Without waiting for Zhang Fei to blurt out.

"Reporting to Mr. Sima Fu..." A steady voice suddenly sounded, "It's the lower official who asked this brother for some advice."

"Well…"

Sima Fang frowned, it was none other than Liu Yu who spoke.

"That's it!" Liu Yu explained in detail: "Recently, I have met the former Sikong Yuan, and the former Taifu Yuan Kui, the Sima Mansion must have known about it. Although Yuan Benchu ​​did not participate in these, but... I always I don't think the Yuan family will forget about it, but Yuan Benchu ​​invited me to drink today, so I kept an eye out and told Xun Or...to let him follow me secretly. If I don't get out for a while, let him find a way to save me go out!"

Speaking of this, Liu Yu looked up and turned to Xun He, "You must not have the heart to harm others, and you must not have the heart to guard against others..."

Such a reminder...

Xun He also knew how to answer, and immediately cupped his hands and said: "Yes, I see that it has been a long time, but Brother Liu has not been out for a long time. I am worried that something is wrong. I only blame my poor martial arts. I am afraid that if I can't break in, I will be stopped and waste time. So I asked someone to invite Zhang Yide to come, and I went to invite Taiwei Qiao myself!"

"Zhang Yide is a heroic person, so he immediately agreed to be dismissed from office. Unexpectedly... this Yuan Shao was really so insane, and even sent a killer, and that's what happened next! No matter what, whether Zhang Yide hurts or kills people, the original intention But it is to save people, and I hope Lord Sima will investigate clearly!"

Because of Liu Yu's chanting...

The conversation between the two of them was perfect!

Sima Fang narrowed his eyes...

He didn't dare to interrogate Yuan Shao, as soon as Princess Wannian came out and it was about royal face, Yuan Shao couldn't easily interrogate her.

But... Sima Fang has to investigate the truth again, so... we can only start from Zhang Fei!

"It turns out that it is like this. If you can save people, you should save others, and if you kill someone, you should kill people. According to the law... capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be escaped!"
