Demon of the Three Kingdoms

()Recently, the streets and alleys of Xudu have been discussing a hot topic: Huainan Yuan Shu proclaims himself emperor!Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, apart from Wang Mang's replacement of the Han Dynasty, it was the first time that Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor.Both officials and civilians are discussing this issue, and the majesty of the big man is facing an unprecedented challenge!

"It's time for Lord Hou to wake up, and he's going to court today." Isn't it?When Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, the majesty of the great Han was damaged?Is it affecting me again?Liu Xie ordered his ministers to go to the court to discuss the plan to defeat Yuan Shu!Lu Rui rubbed his eyes, put on his clothes with great reluctance, followed Cao Cao's carriage out of the mansion, and headed for Xudu Palace.

"Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live!" After Lu Rui followed the group of officials and shouted long live, he returned to his position to see how Liu Xie responded to Yuan Shu's change.

Liu Xie looked at the group of ministers and asked: "My dear friends, Yuan Shu is a traitor and proclaims himself emperor in Huainan. Who is willing to send troops to fight against the traitors? Show off the prestige of our great Han army! Restore the court!"

Liu Xieyi expressed his opinion indignantly. He originally thought that a large number of officials supported him, but unfortunately, the officials just whispered and whispered constantly, but no one stood up to express their views.It's cold!

Liu Xie's face was burning hot, where did all the loyal ministers go?Why did no one come out willing to attack Yuan Shu?In fact, most of the courtiers knew very well that it was fine to shout slogans, but they must not express their opinions casually on things like wars that would cost their lives!

Liu Xie clenched his fists and asked in a low voice: "Is there no one willing to share my worries? Crusade against national traitors?"

Liu Xie asked again, but it was still just a group of officials discussing it, and no one came out to express their opinion.With a smile on his face, Cao Cao waited for Liu Xie to ask himself, the military power is in my Cao Mengde's hands, why don't you ask me?Who can I ask?

Liu Xie felt very helpless when he saw the officials practicing Tai Chi again, and asked: "Cao Aiqing, as Sikong, you are in charge of all officials, what's your opinion?" As a last resort, I still have to ask Cao Cao!

When Cao Cao heard Liu Xie's summons, he walked out unhurriedly. Every step made Liu Xie feel tormented. No one in the court could compete with Cao Mengde!

Cao Cao arched his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I think that Yuan Shu's rebellion is not to be feared. I can order the princes of the world to attack him. At the same time, I will rectify the army in Xudu, eradicate Yuan Shu's party members in Xudu, and choose a good day to go out to attack Yuan Shu."

Did Liu Xie hear it?Annoyed, Cao Mengde?Why don't you send troops to attack Yuan Shu immediately?The princes of the world jointly crusade?What year and month will we be able to send troops, and what will be the majesty of my big man?Liu Xie asked: "Cao Aiqing, Yanzhou has recuperated for nearly a year, why didn't you send troops to attack Yuan Shu immediately?"

Xun Yu stood up and said: "Your Majesty, although Yanzhou has recuperated for a year and has regained its vitality, if the soldiers are not prepared enough for the major events of the country, it will damage my great man Tianwei, so I need to thank you for your time and preparation. Your Majesty please pay attention!"

The ministers also stood up to support Cao Cao. After Liu Xie saw it, he just nodded and said, "Let Cao Aiqing and Cao Aiqing take care of it at this time?"

By the way, where is Yang Biao?Where did the boss Yang Biao go?Why didn't you see Yang Biao?Liu Xie hurriedly asked, "Where is Yang Biao?"

Cao Cao arched his hands and said: "Your Majesty, Yang Biao is Yuan Shu's in-law. He is suspected of collaborating with the enemy. He is old with the rest of the Yuan family. He has already been imprisoned and will be interrogated by your majesty. I will give you an answer!"

When Liu Xie heard this, he was stunned. Is Yang Biao in jail?Cao cao?The opportunity was seized, and Yuan Shu's proclaiming the emperor made Cao Cao seize the opportunity. Even if Liu Xie believed in Yang Biao, the cutscene still had to go. After the cutscene, courtier?It's time to change it again!Thinking of this, Liu Xie said: "Cao Aiqing handled it properly, but Mr. Yang is the elder of the three dynasties. Cao Aiqing must interrogate seriously. I have personally reviewed all the documents. Anyone who is imprisoned must not be killed without my order!"

"Follow His Majesty's will!"

"Retreat!"

After saluting, Lu Rui patted his mouth and let out a breath, don't kill?Can!It's enough to be half dead!

Just as Lu Rui expected, after Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, many officials in Xudu who were located by Cheng Yu's GPS lost their official positions and were replaced by new officials, while Yang Biao was still in prison!

"It's another bumper harvest. We brought back a wild boar, so we can add vegetables again!"

"Ling'er, tell the kitchen to process this wild boar and give it to Father Zhong and all the aunts at night!"

"Yes, Lord Hou!"

"Master Hou, Yang Biao's son Yang Xiu is here to visit, this is his name card!"

The tasteless Yang Xiu is here?For the matter of Yang Biao?Alright, let me meet the tasteless Yang Xiu!

"Let him in, I'll wait for him in the study."

"Yes, Lord Hou."

Soon, a young handsome man dressed as a young scholar came to Lu Rui's study, "See Lord Hou!"

"Oh? You are Yang Xiu, the son of the old Taiwei Yang Biao, Yang Dezu?"

"It's just here, I don't want Master Hou to know the name of De Zu!"

"I once heard Zhong's father say that Brother Dezu is extremely talented and quick-witted. He is a contemporary leader."

"Master Sikong praised it, but Dezu dare not be it!"

"Dezu is polite, please sit down, Dezu!"

Afterwards, the two were divided into primary and secondary seats. Lu Rui looked at Yang Xiu. He was a handsome man, wrapped in luxurious clothes. Only the Yang family of the fourth Taiwei could cultivate such a person. Talent, definitely a talent, with a big enough aura.

Lu Rui smiled and said: "Master Ben has little contact with Brother Dezu, why did Dezu come this time?"

Yang Xiu arched his hands and said, "De Zu has just worshiped Mr. Xun Yu as his teacher. Mr. Xun Yu is the first teacher of all the sons of the Cao Mansion. De Zu and Lord Hou are also classmates. Today, I am here to visit Lord Hou. , give me a small gift as a token of my heart." After speaking, he asked the servant to hand over the gift.

Lu Rui is not interested in the gift, but Yang Xiu is indeed a talent, and he has figured out the old Cao.It seems counterintuitive that Lao Tzu is still in prison, but he actually went to apprentice with a teacher, but it is indeed a wonderful move!

Yang Biao's influence is too great. With Lao Cao's current strength, he will definitely not really deal with him, it is just a spur.As long as the Yang family expressed their sympathy, Cao Cao would kill two birds with one stone, deter some of the two-faced factions who vacillate between Cao and Liu, and at the same time attack the forces supporting Liu Xie.

Lu Rui scratched his head and asked, "Brother Dezu? You are wrong. Man Chong is responsible for this matter. You should find Man Chong to do it, not me."

Yang Xiu said: "Master Hou, my father is old, please take care of the old man and say a few words to Lord Sikong, just express Dezu's concern for my father, please do it!"

Brilliant move!Using Lu Rui's childish words to express the Yang family's intention to submit to Cao Cao, and using filial piety as a cover, this can not only maintain the Yang family's leading position among Liu Xie's old officials, but also highlight the Yang family's intention to submit to Cao Cao.

Lu Rui smiled and said: "De Zu is really smart, good at calculating, good at calculating!"

Yang Xiu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What does Lord Hou mean? De Zu doesn't know."

"If Lord Ben Hou speaks to Master Sikong, if the Yang family does not directly express submission, they will be praised by the officials. This is one of them."

"Dezu and Benhou have a classmate friendship, and speaking of filial piety can show Dezu's thoughts, without losing the dignity of the Yang family, and more like a cousin of Cao. This is the second"

"Dezu, let you take all the benefits!"

Yang Xiu was stunned. He had heard that Lu Rui was intelligent, but he was also very talented since he was a child. He did not expect that this time, Lu Rui would reveal his plan nakedly.

Yang Xiu made up his mind and asked, "So what does Lord Hou think?"

"Dezu? You and I are classmates, how can such a treasure show the friendship between us?"

"......." Speechless Yang Xiu, isn't he?Lu Rui exposed himself because he thought the money he gave was not enough?

Yang Xiu asked tentatively: "What Hou Ye said is that De Zu thinks that this wealth cannot highlight the friendship between De Zu and Hou Ye. De Zu has a lot of rare treasures in his private collection, and he is willing to share half of them with Hou Ye. I don't know Hou Ye ......?"

"Brother Dezu is too polite. Since brother is willing to share the rare treasures, is there any reason for me not to do so?"

"Brother Dezu, don't worry, Uncle Yang's matter is my Lu Rui's matter, I will try my best to speak up!"

"......" There was another burst of speechlessness, lost half of my treasure just like that?But for my father, it's worth it!

"Thank you, Lord Hou, Dezu still has to go to Mandarin's Mansion, so I bid farewell!"

"Brother Dezu, go slowly!"

Before the dinner time, Yang Xiu’s treasures arrived, hey, Xiao Yangyang, you are such a fat sheep, so many good things, pop, this one can be given to Ling’er, that one can be given to Jie’er, For the rest, give rewards to the evil......

"Master Hou, the treasure has been put into storage. This is the ledger."

"Yeah!" After reading the account book, Lu Rui patted his mouth, and it was time to eat and sleep.

After dinner, Lu Rui went back to his room to sleep, to help Yang Xiu?No need, Xiaomanman will take care of it. Since Yang Biao can come out, why bother?Ordering the items sent by Yang Xiu is the key point!

"My lord, Man Chong brought Yang Biao here!"

After a few days, it was time for Cao Cao to deal with Yang Biao.

Yang Biao was brought in front of Cao Cao by Man Chong. Lu Rui was stunned when he saw it. Yang Biao was stewed with pork vermicelli?Traumatized all over?Xiaomanman, respect the elderly and not abuse them.

Seeing Yang Biao like this, Xun Yu and Xun You started to get mad at Man Chong. They had already said hello to Man Chong, not to use torture, but Man Chong actually tortured Yang Biao!

When Cao Cao saw it, he was taken aback for a moment, and then asked, "Bo Ning, is there any result?"

Man Chong cupped his hands and said: "Lord Sikong, there is no evidence of crime found in the torture of Yang Biao. If you want to execute him, you have to find evidence before you can do it. This person is famous in the country. If you can't find evidence and execute him, you will lose the hearts of the people. Please My lord, think twice!"

Vernacular?Xiao Manman is indeed an upright person, if he dares to say this to Lao Cao, there is no room for maneuver.

Cao Cao also shook his head, how long?No one talks to me like this anymore, since that's the case, Yang Biao will let him go!Cao Cao nodded and said: "Your Majesty is not guilty, let him go and keep your salary."

Soon, the man-chong vernacular spread throughout Xudu. The servants couldn't understand the polite words, but the vernacular must be understood by the servants!Once spread to ten, ten to a hundred, it becomes known on the street.Many people with evil intentions have restrained themselves, still don't understand?Lao Yang was not killed because he was tortured, had a hard mouth, and was famous. What if someone else?Weigh your weight!

After the political situation in Xudu was stabilized, Lu Bu and Sun Ce also accepted Cao Cao's crusade order for their own interests, and attacked Yuan Shu. Seeing that the time was ripe, Cao Cao also led his army to attack Yuan Shu!
