Long Fei made an exception and was called to the morning court by Dong Zhuo. Just like last time, Dong Zhuo's huge body sat next to Liu Xie, and all the civil and military officials of the Highness sat in a neat manner. Starting from Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, everyone always went to court early for anything.
.The sudden morning court made many people a little scared, not to mention that when they entered, they saw many Xiliang troops appearing in the palace.
As the newly appointed military commander, Dong Min, although his official rank is not high, controls the guards of the capital and even the palace, and appears in front of all the military attachés in a majestic manner. As soon as the eunuch finished shouting, Dong Min immediately stood up and reported: "Your Majesty, yesterday we were on patrol with our ministers.
At that time, a group of suspicious people were discovered in the city. These people were bribed by Cao Cao to assassinate my elder brother. However, Cao Cao, Yilang, has already fled in fear of crime. Please ask Your Majesty to issue a wanted order to arrest Cao Cao!"
Wang Yun immediately understood that Cao Cao had made a mistake. He was a little worried, fearing that Dong Zhuo would use this matter to implicate him, and unconsciously looked at Long Fei, who was standing at the back. Long Fei kept his eyes closed as if it had nothing to do with him.
The eyes are dozing there.
Yuan Wei sneered coldly and said: "Dong Xiaowei, Cao Cao is the Yilang, and his father Cao Song once served as a Taiwei. Don't dare to make false accusations without evidence!"
Long Fei sighed, it's Yuan Wei again, you did it yourself.
Dong Min chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, if I dare to say that, there is certainly evidence. I personally led the people to capture the two assassins. They are outside the palace. If you don't believe me, bring them in and ask!"
Liu Xie glanced sideways at Dong Zhuo and said loudly: "Bring the assassin in!"
Two half-dead guys were dragged in. There were scars all over their bodies. Naturally, they suffered a lot of physical pain. They couldn't even walk. They had to be dragged forward by the guards. When they reached the center of the hall, the guards let go.
, the two of them lay on the ground motionless, as if they were dead. Dong Min stepped forward, slowly squatted down, stretched out his right hand and raised the head of one person: "Speak! Tell me what you told me, in front of His Majesty and His Majesty.
Say it again in front of all your lords!"
The man took a breath and said weakly: "The villain Zhang San is an assassin in the black ice. He was assigned to come to Luoyang to cooperate with Lord Cao to assassinate Grand Master Dong!"
"Everyone, what he said is clear and clear. What else can be said if the evidence is solid?" Dong Min cupped his hands and said to Liu Xie: "Your Majesty, please order the arrest of Cao Cao as soon as possible!"
"Captain Dong!" Yuan Wei said hurriedly: "Don't just rely on one person's words! Your Majesty, I think this matter needs to be considered in the long term. The black ice this person is talking about has never been heard of by Wei Chen. Be careful that it is framed by others.
, I mistakenly arrested my big man Zhongliang!" When Yuan Wei said this, he did not forget to turn his head and glance at Dong Min.
"This..." From the bottom of his heart, Liu Xie didn't want to arrest anyone, but these words were said by Dong Min and Dong Zhuo's brother. He must have been instructed by Dong Zhuo, but he had to do it, so he was a little hesitant.
Li Su left the class and said: "My lords, the name Black Ice is unfamiliar to you, but some people in Black Ice Platform should know that this was the most powerful murderous organization in the Qin State at that time. These people would be sent out whenever the Qin State lost a battle.
Assassination of generals and ministers from various countries reached its peak during the reign of Qin Shihuang. Do you still remember the Ebony Cliff first created by Emperor Gaozu? It was built to imitate the Black Ice Platform of Qin. It was originally intended to imitate Ying Zheng, but it became a tool for Empress Lu and Wang Mang to disrupt the government.
It wasn’t until Emperor Guangwu that he ordered the disbandment, and this black ice is the legacy of the black ice platform!”
"Ah! So that's it!" Everyone started talking about it. Many people didn't really know the truth. After hearing what Li Su said, they suddenly realized.
"This is just Mr. Li's speculation and cannot be used as evidence!" Although Yuan Wei didn't know about Black Ice Platform and Wumu Cliff, he knew that since he was on the opposite path to Dong Zhuo, he could only continue.
.
Li Su took out the White Dragon Wall that Long Fei gave him from his arms and held it in both hands: "Your Majesty, please see, this is Hei Bing's token, the White Dragon Wall, which was found in Cao Cao's home!"
"Ahem!" Dong Zhuo coughed, and everyone hurriedly stopped talking. Dong Zhuo moved his fat body: "In this case, it seems that Cao Cao really wants to assassinate me. Li Ru has drafted a decree to inform all states and counties in the world to capture the assassin Cao Cao.
Anyone who lives in Cao Cao will be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households and will be rewarded with tens of thousands of gold!"
The first round of the contest ended with Yuan Wei being completely defeated. Cao Song had a good relationship with the Yuan family when he was in court. The Cao and Yuan families were family friends. Now, although no one from the Cao family is an official, their strength in the court cannot be underestimated.
Therefore, Yuan Wei hoped that by saving Cao Cao's life, he could bring the Cao family to his side. However, he failed.
Li Ru was about to draw up the decree when Long Fei suddenly said loudly: "Grand Master, this Cao Cao can collude with Hei Bing. He has been hiding for a long time and has disappeared. I'm afraid it won't be possible to capture him and take the decree. The only way to deal with it is to use the other method to counterattack."
It’s good to be kind to him!”
"What do you mean by this!"
Long Fei stood up: "As far as I know, Hei Bing only recognizes money and not people. There is nothing in the world that they can't do. If you want to catch Cao Cao, why not use Hei Bing? The imperial court is already short of manpower, and the lands in Guandong are simply
If he refuses to obey, Cao Cao will definitely flee back to his hometown, but there is nothing we can do, so we might as well hire Hei Bing to come here faster!"
Li Ru nodded: "This is a wonderful plan! Your Majesty, the Grand Master Wei Chen also thinks that Captain Long is right!"
However, Cai Yong ran out and quickly stopped him: "I am a great man and I have to rely on a group of assassins. This is detrimental to the country and your Majesty's majesty. Please think twice!"
Liu Xie glanced at Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo was sitting there with an angry face and bloodshot eyes. This was a sign that he was going to kill someone. Liu Xie quickly said: "Taicang Order! Is there any money in the treasury?"
Taicang Ling hurriedly left his job and knelt down: "Your Majesty, treasury, treasury, treasury..." After saying three treasuries in a row, he couldn't say anything else.
"If you have it, you have it. If you don't have it, you don't have it. Why be so hesitant!" Li Que said coldly.
"Your Majesty, the treasury is already empty. There is not much food at all!"
"What?" When Liu Xie heard this, he put the stone in his heart down, turned around and said with a smile: "Master, you see there is no money in the treasury, there is nothing we can do!"
"The money issue is easy to solve!" Long Fei spoke for the second time: "Last time, you all donated money to help rebuild the Eighth School of Xiyuan. This time, it is for the future of my great man, so you should not be stingy!
Lord Yuan Wei, what do you think?"
Everything is clear. The previous series are all foreshadowing, and the key issue is still the word money. Dong Zhuo wants to squeeze them dry before he is willing to let it go! Everyone was silent again, and even Yuan Wei had realized that he had been fooled.
, hurriedly clarified: "I'm gone! There are still hundreds of people waiting for food at home. Since you want to capture Cao Cao, then send troops. What happened yesterday, they probably haven't left Hulao Pass today!" After saying that, he sat down quickly.
No more calls.
"The Yuan family has four generations and three princes. Master Yuan's second brother Yuan Feng is the Sikong of the dynasty, and Master Yuan is the Sima of the dynasty. Yuan's eldest son Yuan Shao is the governor of Bohai, and his second son Yuan Shu is the governor of Nanyang. There are 1,231 servants in the family.
In Luoyang, there are eighty-two grain and rice shops, fifteen cloth shops, thirty-seven teahouses and wine shops, and a total of 5,000 yuan of land in Runan. In Luoyang, Hongnong and Chaoge all have land. Who can
People don’t know that the Yuan family is so rich that it can rival the country. Even Master Yuan is crying for poverty, and then all the Han Dynasty will be beggars!” Long Fei explained Yuan Wei’s family clearly in one breath, causing everyone in the Xiliang Army to laugh.
.And among the courtiers, many of them heard the Yuan family's accounts for the first time, and they all looked surprised.
Long Fei continued: "The disciples of the Yuan family are all over the world. There are no disciples of the Yuan family in that state or county. Everyone has their greatest wish in life to make friends with Master Yuan. Starting from the beginning of this year, Yuan Yi, the prefect of Shanyang, donated five thousand gold to Dong.
The prefect of the county Qiao Mao donated 3,800 gold, Liu Dai of Yanzhou donated 6,000, the governor of Yuzhou Kong Miao donated 6,300, the governor of Jizhou Han Fu donated 10,000, the Bohai prefect Yuan Shao donated 30,000, and the later general Yuan Shu, the prefect of Nanyang, even made a donation.
He was generous and donated 50,000 yuan. In just a few months, Mr. Yuan has received hundreds of thousands of gold. Am I right?"
"You!" Yuan Wei gasped angrily: "Your Majesty, Long Fei openly slandered the ministers. I, the Fourth and Third Duke of the Yuan family, are loyal to the Han Dynasty and Your Majesty..."
"Master Yuan! Stop pretending!" Long Fei took out a scroll of bamboo slips from his arms: "Everyone, these are the account books of Yuan Sima's house for the first few months of this year. I don't know how many there are in the past few decades. If
If you want to read it, you can ask Mr. Yuan to borrow it. Maybe Mr. Yuan is in a good mood and will lend it to us. I stole this book after a lot of effort!"
"Bang!" Dong Zhuo slapped the dragon table in front of Liu Xie with his palm, knocking a dragon-headed paperweight off the table: "Yuan Wei is a Sima, setting an example for all officials, yet he has corrupted to this extent. Come on! Will Yuan Wei,
I will take Yuan Feng and put him in prison. Li Su orders you and Long Fei to search Yuan's mansion and go immediately!"
No one in the civil or military officials dared to speak. No one expected that things would suddenly turn out like this. Just now they were three princes, and in an instant they became prisoners. Just a moment ago, they were rich and powerful, and in an instant they were confiscated. They watched people pouring in through the door.
Each of the warriors, Yuan Feng was stunned, and his limbs were stiff and he was carried out. Yuan Wei kept shouting: "I, the fourth and third prince of the Yuan family, are very stubborn towards the Han Dynasty, and also towards your majesty! Dong Zhuo, you are a traitor, Long Fei
You little person..."
Liu Xie was also a little stupid. He wanted to protect Cao Cao just now, but now even the Yuan brothers were involved. He turned his face and glanced at Dong Zhuo secretly, and an inexplicable fear came into his heart. Dong Zhuo was in the presence of everyone.
With help, he slowly stood up and said, "If nothing happens, let's go away! I'm tired too!" He stood up and walked to the harem.
Dong Min hurriedly followed up: "Brother, how did I do? Isn't this pretty?"
"You?" Dong Zhuo sneered: "Honestly, did Long Fei give you the idea?"
Dong Min lowered his head and chuckled. Dong Zhuo rolled his eyes and looked at Dong Min: "You should pay more attention to that Long Fei in the future. This person is unscrupulous and ruthless. He just put the Yuan brothers to death. Although
We have to help you, and you have to make good use of it. You have to learn this."
