Although it was delayed for some time, Fa Miao and Ding Feng still led hundreds of tiger soldiers and arrived outside Wu Yi's mansion soon.

When Fa Miao arrived outside Wu Yi's mansion, he saw that the door of Wu Yi's mansion was strangely closed despite the blue sky and white sun.

After seeing this, Fa Miao just narrowed his eyes slightly, but Ding Feng had a look of anxiety on his face.

When Ding Feng saw that Fa Miao had led his army outside Wu Yi's mansion, he was not in a hurry to go in. He hurriedly said to Fa Miao: "Don't drive, let's lead the army and rush in."

Upon hearing Ding Feng's suggestion, Fa Miao decisively shook his head to express his rejection.

"He is a general who conquered the north, and he is also a relative of the country."

In one short sentence, Fa Miao expressed his inner scruples.

Ding Feng came from a humble background and did not understand the rules of politics.

He only knows that as Mi Yang's minion, he must faithfully complete each of his tasks.

Even for that task, the person he faced was Wu Yi, whose status was far above him.

But Fa Miao was different. Fa Miao, who came from a well-known family, knew that even if he wanted to arrest Deng Xian, he could not rush into Wu Yi's mansion rashly.

Especially when Wu Yi is not guilty of any crime.

Otherwise, he would be tearing away the fig leaf between the noble families, and even slapping Liu Bei in the face.

Among meat eaters, the most important thing is appearance.

Just like even if Mi Yang's status is higher than that of Wu Yi, if he wants to take over Wu Yi's military power, he must honor Wu Yi on the surface and compensate Wu Yi afterwards.

What Mi Yang couldn't do, as his minister, I couldn't do even more.

This is also the reason why Fa Miao asked Mi Yang to let him lead the army.

The reason why Fa Miao did not immediately lead his troops into Wu Yi's mansion was because he knew Wu Yi's character.

Based on Wu Yi's connections in the city, he probably received the news one step ahead of time.

Under such circumstances, it is unlikely that Wu Yi would allow Deng Xian to escape.

Since this is unlikely to happen, Fa Miao is certainly not impatient.

Fa Miao looked at the hundreds of Huben behind him. To Ding Feng's surprise, he ordered the Huben behind him to take a few steps back and disperse.

In this way, the open space in front of the gate of Wu Mansion, which was originally threatened by being surrounded, was exposed.

After giving this order, Fa Miao took a few steps forward on his horse and arrived at the gate of Wu Mansion.

He raised his head and shouted towards the house:

"The state pastor suddenly heard that Deng Xian was colluding with the rebel generals and buying and selling military rations. He found out that Deng Xian was in the general's mansion, so he led his troops to arrest him."

In front of the gate of Wu Mansion, Fa Miao shouted these words three times in a row.

And when these three sentences shouted by Fa Miao were transmitted into Wu's mansion through the towering wall, the people slowly gathering around also understood the intention of Fa Miao leading the army.

Wu Yi's status was unusual, and the location of his mansion was naturally also a gathering place for dignitaries in Nanzheng City.

The moment Fa Miao led his army into the inner gate, many dignitaries living in the same village with Wu Yi learned the news.

After hearing the news, many people were shocked in their hearts and came out of their respective mansions to gather outside Wu Yi's mansion, wanting to see why Mi Yang suddenly acted like this.

Is it to capture Wu Yi?

Although this conjecture is unlikely, it still appears uncontrollably in everyone's minds.

Now after everyone heard what Fa Miao said, they learned Mi Yang's true intention.

Deng Xian held the important position of military commander in Hanzhong, so everyone naturally knew about him.

They also knew that Deng Xian was one of Wu Yi's confidants.

Deng Xian was a military commander in Hanzhong but knew the law and broke the law. Undoubtedly, he was guilty of an extra level of crime. Such a crime was indeed worthy of Mi Yang sending troops to arrest him.

As for why Deng Xian was in Wu Yi's mansion, it was probably because today happened to be the day when Deng Xian paid a visit to Wu Yi.

Everyone present has his or her own trusted subordinates, and it is normal to know this.

After learning about this incident, the shock in the hearts of everyone watching slowly dissipated.

It's not like he wanted to arrest Wu Yi for no reason. Moreover, Fa Miao ordered the tigers and soldiers behind him to retreat. This was already giving Wu Yi face.

At least when Wei Yan was in charge of Hanzhong, his power was far less than that of Mi Yang, but his actions were much more unscrupulous than Mi Yang's.

He doesn't care about the bad influence at all, otherwise why would so many people hate him?

After the shock in their hearts dissipated, everyone immediately felt like watching the fun.

They were all curious about what Wu Yi would do next.

No matter what you say, Deng Xian is still Wu Yi's old subordinate.

Everyone's curiosity was not kept waiting for too long. Soon after Fa Miao's three-sentence shout reached Wu Yi's mansion, the door of Wu Yi's mansion was slowly opened by the servants in the mansion.

When the door of Wu Yi's mansion was completely opened, the scene inside the door was completely revealed to the eyes of hundreds of people outside the mansion.

I saw Deng Xian being tied up and held inside the door, and the people responsible for controlling him were Wu Yi, the general in charge of the northern expedition, and Wu Ban, the partial general.

After seeing this scene, not to mention the crowd of spectators, even Fa Miao had a look of surprise on his face.

Decisive enough.

After Wu Yi saw Fa Miao at the door, he and Wu Ban escorted Deng Xian towards Fa Miao.

Under the escort of Wu Yi, although Deng Xian's face was filled with deathly gray, he made no movement of struggle at all.

Not to mention Wu Yi's prestige in his heart, just the hundreds of tiger warriors who retreated but still stood outside the door, which made him unable to resist any thoughts in his heart.

Not far away, Wu Yi quickly escorted Deng Xian to Fa Miao.

And just before Wu Yi arrived, Fa Miao had already jumped off his horse in time.

When Wu Yi and Fa Miao stood opposite each other, Wu Yi took the lead in bowing to Fa Miao and said sincerely in front of everyone:

"Yi's lax control of his subordinates led to the emergence of a scoundrel like Deng Xian. I feel deeply ashamed and sad.

Now I will personally escort the criminal Deng Xian into Biejia's hands, and Biejia can take care of himself."

Wu Yi's voice when he said these words was not too quiet. When his words reached the ears of everyone present, words of praise for Wu Yi began to appear among the onlookers.

Words of praise that conveyed a profound sense of justice floated into the ears of Wu Yi and Fa Miao as if they were free of charge.

In the Han Dynasty, the emphasis was on the concealment of relatives. The concealment of relatives was not only a basic principle of the law of the Han Dynasty, but also a moral code that the world basically abided by.

Although Deng Xian was not related to Wu Yi, in the Han Dynasty, some close bosses and subordinates were equivalent to relatives.

This is also the reason why Wu Banfang persuaded Wu Yi to let Deng Xian escape.

It's not that Wu Ban is stupid, it's that such behavior is very common in today's world.

It’s just obvious that Wu Yi sees further than Wu Ban.

Perhaps the act of concealing relatives will be recognized by the world, but because of this, sometimes the act of "killing relatives for justice" will be praised by the world.

Many people cannot do it themselves, but they are not stingy in praising others for their actions.

Now that Wu Yi had righteously eliminated his relatives and personally escorted Deng Xian to Fa Miao, this move would be praised by anyone as "Wu Gong's high righteousness".

Even after Fa Miao saw Wu Yi's behavior, he ordered Ding Feng behind him to take Deng Xian away. On the other hand, he also bowed to Wu Yi and said with a smile:

"Many scholars in Yizhou praised Gao Jin for conquering the north, and Guan Gong's style today is truly worthy of his reputation."

Fa Miao didn't have a bad impression of Wu Yi in the first place, and now he saw that Wu Yi was very cooperative with him, so it didn't hurt for him to praise Wu Yi at the right time.

After Fa Miao praised Wu Yi, he thought about taking Deng Xian back to the Prefectural Mufu.

But just when Fa Miao was about to leave, Wu Yi took the initiative and said to Fa Miao: "Yi wants to go with Bie Jia to meet Uncle Mu."

Wu Yi's request was very sudden, which also made Fa Miao a little puzzled.

But then he remembered Liu Bei's comments about Wu Yi, and a knowing look appeared on his face.

"Cherish the overwhelming love."

What is universal love? Different people have different opinions.

Although Fa Miao did not have the unparalleled intelligence of his father, Fa Miao, who had been handling human affairs for Fa Zheng since he was a child, was much more unique in his judgment than Fa Zheng in some matters.

After understanding Wu Yi's unspoken intention, Fa Miao did not refuse. He happily invited Wu Yi to go with him to meet Mi Yang.

...

Soon after, Mi Yang was in the governor's mansion and waited until Fa Miao returned to him in person.

However, what surprised Mi Yang was that Wu Yi followed Fa Miao and came to him.

In front of Mi Yang, Fa Miao told Mi Yang everything that happened just now.

Fa Miao highlighted Wu Yi's performance in personally escorting Deng Xian just now.

Compared with Wei Yan's approach today, Wu Yi's approach is undoubtedly more likely to be liked by Mi Yang, a superior.

Mi Yang initially expected that Wu Yi might not protect Deng Xian, but he did not expect that Wu Yi would do it more thoroughly.

Under this kind of sense, Mi Yang looked at Wu Yi with a kind look.
