Chapter 705: Clear rewards and punishments
Of course Liu Feng didn't know that Chen Hong, whom he wanted to use to increase his reputation, was sent by Cao Jun's spies. See the entertainment embarrassment picture above
However, those spies were hidden so well that even Liu Feng could hardly detect them.
Yingchuan is very close to Xudu, and it only takes one day to get there by horse. The prefect of Yingchuan, Chen Hong, was a scholar-bureaucrat, and it took him three days to arrive by car.
As soon as Chen Hong arrived in Xudu, he was invited into the palace.[
At this moment, in the side hall, the emperor is sitting on the throne. Below him are the crown prince, the king's general Liu Feng, Sikong Fuwan, Situ Xunyu, Shangshu Ling Jiang Wan, and court lieutenant Tian Feng.
Chen Hong and Li Shan stood in the middle.
"Chen Hong, is it true that Li Shan reported that you planned to take down the Cao thieves in the city?" Liu Xie asked in a deep voice, very sharply.
Chen Hong, the prefect of Yingchuan, can also be regarded as a prince. He was attacked by others, but he was relatively calm at the moment. It was obvious that he was mentally prepared when he came.
After taking a deep breath, Chen Hong saluted and said, "I am ashamed to show you your Majesty."
It was true, and it happened to be Li Shan's case. Chen Hong didn't know how much evidence Li Shan had to prove his crime, and he couldn't hold it back. After thinking hard, he decided to confess and be lenient.
As soon as Chen Hong said these words, he admitted his guilt.
As a high-risk person, Li Shan had a relaxed smile on his face. Liu Xie's face suddenly turned cold, and he wanted to ask Ting Wei to take the person and deal with it according to law.
But at this time, Liu Feng spoke up and said: "Chen Yingchuan, you used to have a good reputation. You are not the kind of villain who is like a walleye. Why are your moral integrity compromised at this critical moment?"
"Cao's army is powerful and Yingchuan is on the verge of collapse. If the city is destroyed, I will definitely lose my life, and the city will be in chaos by Cao's army, and the people will suffer. I was frightened, so I thought of surrendering." Chen Hong said, very sincerely.
.
He does not deny that he is afraid of death, but at the same time he is also worried about the insurgency.
Liu Feng nodded secretly, as long as he was honest. It was him. He just used it to increase his reputation.
"It's understandable that Chen Yingchuan misses the people in the city." Liu Feng nodded and said.
As soon as these words came out, although not to mention the people in the side hall, everyone almost lost their eyes, but it was almost the same. When did the cruel and ruthless general of the king actually start to be kind to women, and it was understandable
Original.
Especially Li Shan, he didn't expect that the wind would change. What he thought was easy to capture and foolproof would actually change in the words of the king's general who was least likely to protect Chen Hong.
Even Chen Hong was quite surprised. He confessed because he wanted to win such a chance of survival. He hoped that the emperor, Sikong, and Situ would see him as being honest and save his life.
Unexpectedly, the person who said that he had extenuating circumstances was actually the king's general. He was hot-blooded, violent and ruthless. According to rumors, he was such a hero.
Chen Hong felt that this rumor may not be reliable.
"However, it is still a serious crime to surrender the city. Even if you can avoid the death penalty, you cannot escape the living penalty. When you are dismissed from the position of prefect, the imperial court will never hire you." Immediately afterwards, Liu Feng changed the topic and looked stern.
Strong way.[
"Thank you, Your Majesty, General." For an official, this punishment was already very serious, but Chen Hong still felt grateful and thanked him.
