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

Chapter 265 The wine and meat of Zhumen stink

Two months of private interviews on Weibo.

Emperor Liu Hong returned to the palace.

But on this day, on the cloud platform of the Dragon Tower and the Phoenix Tower, in the Deyang Hall, all the officials bowed their heads, and the emperor was furious.

"I ask you? Do you know what rice meat is?"

The audience was in an uproar...

During this "private visit in micro-service" repeatedly suggested by Yu'er, Liu Hong almost saw the darker side of the whole big man.

This includes...officials and soldiers killing people to take credit for meritorious service, this includes local governments withholding pensions at one level, leaving the people with nowhere to rely on for old age, and leaving the people with nothing to survive...

In the past, what Liu Hong had heard about "not daring to wear clothes when cold, and not daring to eat when hungry," everything that he could not believe had all become true at this moment.

As for... this rice meat?

There was an uproar in the court, who would know what rice meat is?
"Do you know?" Liu Hong continued: "I went on tour in my clothes, and I saw along the way how desolate the refugees on the land are? A piece of bread can be exchanged for a beautiful daughter-in-law!"

"I have said with my own eyes that a father sold his own daughter in exchange for two pieces of bread. When the daughter was taken away, she kept shouting 'Dad, don't sell me, Daddy don't sell me', but it can be exchanged... It's his father's longing eyes for the bread, and his indifferent words and deeds towards his daughter!"

"I also saw that this father devoured the bread when he got it, and choked to death on the bread because there was no water, because he was eager to eat it... The refugees around rushed up to fight for the bread, a small piece Mianbing, at least three people were killed!"

All this was said by Liu Hong with his own eyes...shocking.

At this moment, acting out of his mouth...every word, every word, he is gritting his teeth, gnashing his teeth!

"But do you know? What will the daughter sold by the father do? She will be sent to be processed into rice meat... Humans eat rice-long meat, so human meat is rice meat! Hehe... Shocking, There are also vegetable cows and vegetable people! I also have eyes, and I am a big man, can people be used to eat?"

In the ancient famine, Yizi cannibalize each other...

Ordinary families would eat their daughters first, and then their wives. If the son really couldn't bear it, he would replace it with someone else's son.

At the end of the Han Dynasty... the four words "Yi Zi Xiangshi" were often recorded in ancient books and documents, but that was the record... After seeing it alive, Liu Hong was shocked.

"speak…"

"Why don't you talk?"

Liu Hong stared coldly at the courtiers in front of him...Seeing that they buried their heads extremely low, Liu Hong smiled: "Haha... yes, there are frozen bones on the streets of Zhumen's wine and meat. How do you know that these people are suffering among the people... You only know how to exploit them in different ways, to collect money, and to expand your homeland? Is that right... Is that what I said!"

boom…

Rumble!
Liu Hong's words were like a cold sword piercing towards the courtiers.

"Corrupt, sad..." Liu Hong stared angrily, "If I didn't go and see for myself, I wouldn't know that officers and soldiers can't beat moth thieves, and they can plunder the people and use their heads to pretend to be meritorious? I don’t know, for a centurion who first climbed to the enemy’s city for the imperial court and made great achievements, the imperial court’s pensions and awards… in his hands, only a scattered [-]% is left!”

"Yellow turbans are everywhere, and people's grievances are boiling. You can only say that it is a group of unruly people who rebelled, but I have been to the people to know that it is not a rebellion by the unruly people, but an official who forced the people to rebel. If I am one of them, someone from Taipingdao will tell me As long as you join them, you will have food, as long as you overthrow the notice of this empire, you will have land farming, and I will join them without hesitation! No wonder the common people... If it were me, I would turn against it!"

This is out of the way...

Pat... Pat...

There was a continuous "click" sound.

"Your Majesty... I am waiting for death!"

Yang Ci fell to his knees first, his head hit the ground like garlic.

Qiao Xuan also knelt down, and the seventy-two doctors, including Xun Yu, Zhang Rang and others, also knelt down.

"Jian Shuo!"

"Chen is here!"

"Nian Nian!" Liu Hong ordered.

Jian Shuo took out a document from his bosom, which was a letter from Cao Cao... "The malpractice of the Jinan country is as follows: private salt is prevalent, the empire's strategic reserve materials and iron smelting are in the hands of tyrants; farmers hand in water benefits every year, and the Yellow River floods every year and no one cares about it. , rivers are silted up, irrigation is not smooth, leading to aggravated agricultural droughts and floods; Jinan state officials colluded with officials to collect several times more of the taxes issued by the empire. It hurts people and enriches private interests; merchants spend money to buy two thousand stones of official costumes to wear, privately support singers, and use ritual and music instruments for private use; the rich are extravagant, robbing and plundering, and no one dares to control the officials;
Melt down the standard five baht coins without permission, and recast them into thinner and lighter 'pseudo five baht'! "

Jian Shuo's words... are evidence of Jinan Kingdom's malpractice.

And these words shocked the officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and at the same time made many ministers tremble.

You know, many of these crimes... They have participated in it, and Jinan Kingdom's annual filial piety... Naturally, their share is indispensable.

"How did Cao Cao do it? Keep talking!" Liu Hong continued to open his mouth.

Jian Shuo said: "Cao Guoxiang dismissed Fu De, director of Jinan State Salt Industry, Qiu Lian, director of agriculture, Huang Zhong, director of forestry, Tong Wei, director of handicraft industry, Li Hui, director of water conservancy, Ning Ye, director of public security, Jin Si, director of taxation, and Zhang Zhang, director of household registration. Qiu and Qian Shan, the director of the metallurgical industry, recruited soldiers and horses with the money bribed by local tyrants, and overthrew the evil temple. Now everyone in Jinan has heard that Cao Guo looks pale...Jinan is actually very clear!"

When Jian Shuo mentioned this...

What Liu Hong thought of was the last conversation he had with Yu'er in Yulin Temple.

"What if Zhen Weifu went to the folks to see it? What about seeing these ills? How to deal with them?"

At that time... Liu Hong asked such a question very earnestly.

Liu Yu paused for a moment, and he softly replied five words - "Use heavy codes in troubled times!"

Cao Cao cast five-color big sticks in the northern part of Luoyang, and beat the rich and powerful first...

At the time of Dunqiu's decree, the ten crimes were issued in the middle,
Now destroy the evil temple, and use violence to control violence...

Isn't this the point of the troubled times mentioned by Yu'er?
"My lords, if any of you collude with the local government, oppress the good, and fill your pockets... I tell you, your good days are coming to an end. I find that ordinary officials can't rule this big man. I want to use cruel officials. , I want to use cruel officials from poor families! I want those who commit crimes and commit crimes to never sleep well again!"

"Who among you forces my people to rebel, then I will take your heads!"

As soon as this statement comes out…

Liu Hong didn't make any further descriptions, he turned around, walked like a dragon and a tiger... and walked away!

Only the courtiers were left... looking at each other in blank dismay.

They feel... feel like their heads are floating... as if they are going to be cut off at any moment.

This time... His Majesty is going to be serious!

Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong were also trembling all over. They looked at each other, and they were thinking about joining Cao Cao... Now, let alone Shen Cao Cao... Cao Cao's image is almost becoming a typical "cool official"... This day will change where!

Liu Hong walked out of the Hall of Long Live.

"His Majesty…"

Qiao Xuan hurriedly took a step up, took a deep breath, and respectfully said: "Your Majesty, the Youzhou secret report was sent directly to the minister's Taiwei Mansion. Liu Dahonghe has already dispatched troops to Wuhuan. In the secret report... please don't say anything, Your Majesty. Liu Dahonghe has Before Yan Qiu, he will personally bring the head of Wuhuan King Tan Shihuai back to Luoyang!"

call…

Qiao Xuan's report brought joy and surprise to Liu Hong's gloomy cheeks.

"Okay!"

His face instantly seemed to be bleeding! "Qiao Taiwei, you plan to recruit immediately, and send one copy to General Huangfu, so that General Huangfu can send troops to help Liu Dahonghe at any time, and send the other to Youzhou, telling Liu Dahonghe, if this function is successful, then the northern border The only opponent left is Xianbei, and within three years I will settle in northern Xinjiang!"

Liu Hong's eyes are full of ambition...

"His Majesty…"

Jian Shuo hurriedly reminded: "Will Liu Dahonglu be able to go here?"

"He can!" Liu Hong said firmly. "If the northern border cannot be pacified, if I can hand over the world to him!"

Uh…

Qiao Xuan was startled.

The emperor's words...why do they sound a bit like giving way?
Of course, Qiao Xuan didn't think too much, he thought he was thinking too much, and immediately added, "Your Majesty... There is another statement in Liu Dahongxi's secret report - the sorrow of Wuhuan is for my congratulations, and the death of Xianbei is for my congratulations." I Chang, wait until autumn comes, September [-]th, when Wuhuan is killed, Xianbei is killed, and the arrows soaring to the sky come out of Yanmen, and the northern border is full of black gold armor!"

call…

Liu Hong took a deep breath, "Issuing an edict! Liu Yu's Northern Expedition to Wuhuan is the most important thing for our dynasty. From now on, I will fully cooperate with all ministries of the dynasty. If something is wrong somewhere, I will definitely kill it!"

Liu Hong flicked his sleeve... His eyes couldn't help but look towards the northern border...

...

...

within three months.

Fifteen secret reports were sent out from the Wuhuan territory, repeatedly reporting Wuhuan's situation to Lu Longsai where Liu Yu was.

Inside Lulongzhai, Liu Yu read the secret report, his eyes were full of hostility: "In order to resist us, Wuhuan has prepared [-] Huqi..."

"Liu Dahonglu, when shall we send troops?" Gongsun Zan asked.

all of a sudden...

There was a murderous look in the handsome tent, as if he was about to fight Wuhuan at this very moment.

Liu Yu smiled slightly, "It's no secret that Lulongzhai trail is no longer a secret. Tomorrow morning, we will set off on an expedition and march directly to Wuhuan Mountain!"

"Here!" Gongsun Zan cupped his hands.

Speaking of which, Gongsun Zan's hatred for Wuhuan was especially born of other alien races.

Back then, the Northern Expedition led by Xia Yu and Tian Ying was at a disadvantage when conquering Xianbei...

At that time, Wuhuan ignored the "redemption agreement" of the big man and looted the border. He also committed massacres in Wuyuan of Bingzhou and the northern border of Youzhou. The wall is ruined, blood is flowing for thousands of miles, and at a glance... it is full of vultures eating the remains.

Now...the Northern Expedition to Wuhuan, this is not only a battle between the Han and Wuhuan, but also a fateful battle between Gongsun Zan and Wuhuan...

but…

Gongsun Zan seemed to be worried, he asked, "Liu Dahonglu, if we really fight on the plains, I, Baima Yicong, will not be afraid of Wuhuan and Huqi, but... our infantry may be easily scattered by Huqi."

"You should believe in the results of our training for so many days." Liu Yu was quite confident...

But...obviously...

Gongsun Zan still had lingering fears.

"When the time comes, you will know that our infantry is not inferior to these barbarians at all!"

...

...

Luoyang, the imperial palace.

Similar to the atmosphere in Lulong Village in Youzhou, the atmosphere in a side hall at this time was extremely tense.

Ten permanent servants headed by Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong gathered here.

It seems...they are still troublesome about the affairs of Jinan.

"Who would have thought that your Majesty's private visit in a low-clothes suit would not be a good place to go, but to some poor folk...or to the messy places in Jinan and Jinbei!"

"That's right... Your Majesty has seen everything. Today, His Majesty only vented his anger in the hall, but did not punish the officials... Do you want His Majesty to settle accounts after the fall!"

"Manchu court officials, how many of them are not involved with Jinan Kingdom? If they are not involved, what about the sufferings of the common people? Are they irrelevant? Take ten thousand steps back and say, which minister... his own house, garden... did not invade The common people’s fields? If you want to investigate all of this...then the whole court, don’t do it!"

you don't say a word...

Ten permanent servants and 12 people discussed a lot.

"alright, alright!"

Zhang Rang opened his mouth, and everyone closed their mouths tacitly.

"Even if Your Majesty didn't say it clearly today, the meaning couldn't be more clear. He has rewarded Cao Cao..."

Zhang Rang's eyes narrowed into a slit, and the light in his eyes could almost turn into a knife...

"What does Zhang Changshi mean?"

"Cao Cao..." Zhang Rang said in a firm tone, "This is the crux of the matter... The better Cao Cao does in Jinan, the better we will be in the future, I'm afraid it will come to an end! If His Majesty will use Cao Cao's stunned young man in the future... then... "

hear here...

Zhao Zhong rolled his eyes, "Zhang Changshi...it's not right, you also said...this Cao Cao is a stunned young man, he killed Jian Shuo's uncle when he said he would kill him... Will it work if we look for him?"

"Of course it doesn't work to find him... But..." Zhang Rang's eyes were fixed, "Can we find his father?"

"His father?"

"That's right..." Zhang Rang said with a smile: "Cao Cao can't deal with him, our family has a hundred ways to make his father submit!"

...

...

"Yeah!"

In Jinan Kingdom, Cao Cao in the Prime Minister's Mansion seemed quite excited today.

Chen Gong came over curiously, "What is it that makes Cao Guoxiang so happy?"

"The third brother is finally going to send troops to fight Wuhuan!" Cao Cao said in a high tone...

This…

Having been with Cao Cao for a long time, Chen Gong naturally knew that the so-called third younger brother Cao Cao was talking about was the world-famous Yulin Liulang.

only…

"No..."

Chen Gong pouted.

"Why not?" Cao Cao asked back.

"Yulin Liulang is so sane, if it is the Northern Expedition to Wuhuan? The news should be blocked... quietly attacking? How could he... write a letter to Meng De? What if the news leaked?"

this…

After being reminded by Chen Gong, Cao Cao also became curious. "That's right!"

Chen Gong pouted, and continued: "Could it be..."

"Is it what?"

"There are only two possibilities. One is Yulin Liulang's old suspicions. He wants the Wuhuan people to know...the other is..." Chen Gong pursed his lips and said, "Yulin Liulang has enough confidence...he I have become so confident in the frontier guards... Ignore Wuhuan's enemies completely, and I am sure that even if the opponent is on guard, I can still go all out... Take down the enemy!"

this…

Cao Cao rolled his eyes, based on his understanding of Liu Yu, he felt...it should be the latter.

at this time.

A voice came, "Cao Guoxiang...Your Majesty issued three commendation orders in a row! They are all commendations for Cao Guoxiang...you are good at governing the country!"
