Chapter 36: Duan Xi

After Yang Qiu arrived, he waited outside the palace for a while and saw Duan Taiwei coming out with a bloated belly.

While he was looking for Taiwei Duan's shoes at Xiaohuangmen, the old Taiwei looked to himself and said:

"Some people, after killing a lot of moth thieves, feel like they are a figure.

Do you know how many people this Taiwei killed in Xizhou? Have you ever seen a mountain with piles of human heads? Do you know how those Qiang and Hus are called grandpa?"

As he said this, he took two bites of the fruit:

"Don't talk about it. After all, the food in this palace is good. Some people think that with this solar eclipse, I, the lieutenant, will come to an end, and then all kinds of pigs and dogs will come to bully you.

This time is only a small punishment. If it were placed in the west, anyone who dared to get ahead of me would have been screwed long ago."

At this time, Xiao Huangmen found some shoes for Taiwei Duan, and called a few stronger colleagues to help him out.

Lieutenant Duan didn't even glance at Yang Qiu during the whole process, but every word he said was for Yang Qiu.

Yang Qiu was trembling with anger, pulling at his left sleeve until his joints turned white.

Watching Lieutenant Rouqiu walking further and further along the platform, Yang Qiu's eyes narrowed smaller and smaller.

"Yang Qiu enters the palace" This is the roll call outside the palace at the Little Yellow Gate.

Hearing this, Yang Qiu flicked his sleeves, took off his shoes, took small steps, and bowed into the hall.

--------------------------------------------------

"Old Lieutenant, if you humiliate Yang Qiu like this, you won't be afraid of him jumping over the wall. This man is a well-known fiery man in the court. He is even more generous than Li Ying back then. Old Lieutenant should be more careful."

This is a small yellow door with Duan Xi. He asked half as a reminder and half as a puzzle.

"You know nothing, have you ever seen taming a horse? In Liangzhou, I was particularly good at taming fierce horses.

If the horse stumbles, hit it with an awl. If it dares to stumble suddenly, use a whip. No horse is untamed.

The same goes for Yang Qiu. If you tame it a few times, you will really think this is Hebei."

As he spoke, Duan Taiwei said to himself:

"I see, being an official in the court is similar to being in the army. As long as you are ruthless and fierce enough, people will fear you and obey you."

After saying that, he called the thugs and signaled Xiao Huangmen to just send him here.

Then Captain Duan continued to sit on his chariot carried by twenty people and headed out of the palace.

Watching Captain Duan go away, Xiao Huangmen, who had mentioned something before, murmured to himself:

"Lieutenant, Taiwei, you only think that you have a whip and can whip it as much as you want, but have you forgotten that Yang Qiu is also a whip-bearer? It seems that you are not far away from causing trouble."

Then he stopped looking at Captain Duan and went back to duty with his colleagues.

--------------------------------------------------

Liu Hong will be very happy now, because another crisis has been solved by him smoothly.

A few days ago, there was a sudden solar eclipse. In a culture influenced by heaven and man, this is obviously a sign that the king has lost his morality.

There are many annoying old people who write letters saying that they should not build a palace, build a Western Garden, or even sell their official positions.

Fortunately, this old man was sensible and considerate. Before I could react, he wrote a letter to impeach himself. It was really good to take the disaster of the solar eclipse upon himself.

It doesn't matter if he resigns now. Let him become a Sikong later. It will be my reward.

Of course, the money that should be paid cannot be less.

At this moment, Yang Qiu entered the palace. Liu Hong looked at this beloved minister and was filled with joy.

Liu Hong also had his own base in the court, which was the Hebei faction headed by Liu He.

It is said that I was able to become the emperor only because of the recommendation of his clan brother Liu Shu, and was supported by Dou Wu as the emperor.

It's a pity that Liu Su later followed Dou Wu to cause trouble and failed to end well.

But I finally appreciated this affection and promoted his younger brother Liu He to the rank of Situ.

The Hebei clique officials united around him have also become my humerus. Now there are eunuchs inside and a party of Hebei clique outside, and the power of the government is under control.

And this yang ball is my favorite, he is smart and capable, and solves my worries. This time I promoted him to the position of Sili Xiaowei because this sword is sharp and can kill people.

Under Liu Hong's approving gaze, Yang Qiu sat down.

But as soon as he sat down, he took off his crown of advancement, took out a piece of paper from his left pocket, bent down on the ground, and shouted:

"I have something I would like to report to Your Majesty. Yesterday, a case of rape was discovered. Wang Fu, a disciple of Zhongchang Attendant Wang Fu, who was born in Jingzhaojie, was involved in official wealth, involving more than 70 million.

I feel that this matter is of great importance and I dare not postpone it, so I will report this matter to His Majesty for His Majesty's Holy Judgment."

Liu Hong was startled, and the smile on his face stopped.

He asked calmly:

"Is this possible? You also understand the law. Anyone who slanders others will be punished with the same crime. This matter is not a joke."

Yang Sphere, who was kneeling on his knees, heard this and said loudly:

"Everything I said has its proof."

After saying this, he raised the memorial high above his head.

Xiao Huangmen on the side quickly took the folder and handed it to Liu Hong.

Liu Hong was flipping through the pages, his brows furrowing, and suddenly he dropped the folder on the ground.

"What a brave bitch, he dares to take my money. What else can I say? First arrest him and put him in jail, and then let him spit out the money back one cent at a time.

No, not only do you want to vomit, but you also want him to vomit twice as much. Now you lead people to arrest Wang Fu and ransack his house."

Yang Qiu didn't move even after hearing this.

"Why, I asked you to get Wang Fu, why are you still kneeling and not moving?

Seventy million dollars? How many two thousand dan would you have to sell to get it? This bitch slave is actually greedy, he is really a bitch."

Liu Hong said that he was not relieved, so he stood up again and walked back and forth, getting more and more angry as he walked.

When Yang Qiu saw that it was almost the same, he immediately played again:

"I don't want to leave because I still have something to report.

When it was previously discovered, those selling and transporting the goods were Qiang and Hu Yi Cong under the command of Taiwei Duan Xi. They resisted the law with weapons and were all executed.

Therefore, I impeach Taiwei Duan Xi again for colluding with Wang Fu to take bribes and pervert the law. Please allow your majesty to allow the Taiwei to be imprisoned together."

When he heard that Duan Xi was also involved in the stolen goods, Liu Hong stopped talking in circles and stood there pondering, and then asked:

"What you said is true."

"If I tell any lies, I will die and my family will be destroyed."

Liu Hong stopped talking at this time, and the atmosphere was tense.

Liu Hong was worried because Duan Xi was unusual.

Then Wang Fu is just a slave in the family. If he were to die at the third watch, would he be able to survive at the fifth watch?

Not to mention that he had stolen 70 million of his own money. Even if he didn't have it, he would have died a hundred times based on what he had stolen over the years.

But Duan Xi was an old commander, a man of the highest caliber in martial arts, well versed in border affairs, and a man of military service. He was a distinguished leader, had experienced two major battles, and had outstanding achievements. His prestige in the army was too great.

If he had imprisoned him without any reason, he would surely have caused chaos in the government and the public, and disappointed the heroes.

If something happens to the court later, it will be difficult to expect these border warriors to work hard.

When Liu Hong was in trouble, Yang Qiu said another word.

"The day before yesterday's solar eclipse, the Taiwei impeached himself. According to the law, he was sent to prison to examine himself. I can check whether the Taiwei was really involved in this matter.

If yes, a small punishment will suffice; if not, you can also be released from prison after self-examination.

It's just a matter of a few words from me."

Huh? This is a solution. But I feel a little sorry for Lao Duan. He clearly blocked his own path and imprisoned himself, but now he wants to go to jail.

But that's okay, Lao Duan still has a bit of a fiery temper. Going to jail to temper and tame him is also the way to control his ministers.

After thinking about it, Liu Hong nodded and agreed to Yang Qiu's suggestion.

Then, he asked the minister on the side to draft an edict and let Yang Qiu handle it. He also told Wang Fu to be the most important, and the old commander went through the motions.

Yang Qiu suppressed his joy, knelt down and thanked the country, and went out with the imperial edict.

Xiao Huangmen gave him half-wearing shoes, and Yang Qiu couldn't wait to rush out of the hall.

Duan Jiming, let’s see how you die this time.

My yangqiu, revenge never overnight.

Yang Qiu ran along the corridor and saw Duan Xi's huge chariot at the entrance of the palace.

Yang Qiu ignored him and went straight through Duan Xi's team and got out of the palace first.

Duan Xi was surprised how this man was so hot-tempered.

As expected, he was a disciple of the noble family who was frustrated and could not hold back his anger.

When Duan Taiwei was sitting on the chariot, as soon as he left the palace gate, he saw Yang Qiu leading people to surround his retinue and guests.

Lao Duan cursed:

"You northern dog, who gave you the courage to surround this captain's team?"

With that said, he asked the bearers to carry him and continue walking forward.

Yang Qiu smiled coldly, took out the edict from his pocket, and opened it:

"The guilty minister Duan Xi, your case has been exposed. This is a national edict. If you are put in jail, you will be arrested without hesitation."

This has confused the old lieutenant. What happened to me? Are you going to put me in jail? Just now, I was chatting and laughing with the country, so you are going to put me in jail?

What a courageous person! This Yang Qiu actually dared to falsify the imperial edict!

Duan Xi immediately became alert. He summoned his servants and guests, asked them to pull out the hidden swords from under their feet, and immediately surrounded Yang Qiu and others.

While Duan Xi was dispatching Yi Cong, he shouted to Dongming Sima who was standing on the city gate above the east gate:

"Yang Qiu tried to correct the imperial edict, but he still hasn't taken it."

Dongming Sima, who had been nervously watching the conflict between Duan Yang and Duan Yang on the gate tower, was shocked when he heard this.

Not daring to hesitate, he rushed out with his subordinate palace gatekeeper.

Yang Qiu looked at this scene and laughed:

"Heaven's evil deeds can be forgiven, but man's evil deeds are unforgivable. Duan Jiming, you are indeed in a coma, and you dare to hide your troops and enter the prison.

Okay, okay. Who said I was pretending to be an edict? Why didn’t Sima Dongming come forward and give it a try?”

Dongming Sima secretly complained that he was just a small palace door Sima who was as powerful as a thousand stones. He could not afford to offend any of the two big guys.

Hearing Yang Qiu call him, he could only step forward and take the edict from Yang Qiu's hand.

At first glance, it turned out to be true. The old lieutenant was in danger!

Sima Dongming respectfully returned the edict to Yang Qiu, and then with a wave of his hand, he asked the palace gatekeepers to surround Duan Taiwei's team.

Duan Xi saw that the situation was reversed.

The Qiang and Hu Yi Cong under him are all rare Qiang species. They are his chosen warriors and are devoted to him.

Among them were several Qiang and Hu people, speaking nonsensical nonsense to Duan Xi. Duan Xi's face was ashen and he remained silent.

Seeing that his master was silent, Qiang Hu Yicong could only hold his sword to protect him inside.

The Qiang and Hu soldiers did not dare to move, and neither did the palace gatekeepers. It was not because they were afraid of these bastards with their hair draped in ruffles. None of them, the palace gatekeepers, were equal to ten, and their martial arts skills were unparalleled.

They did not dare to attack the old captain. This man was extremely skilled in martial arts and had killed hundreds of thousands of Qiang and Hu men. They were both afraid and respectful.

Dongming Sima understood his subordinates' thoughts and said to Yang Qiu in embarrassment:

"Sitting alone, brothers, I can't do anything. Why don't you ask the country again to see if it's a mistake?"

Yang Qiu looked embarrassed, he was a bunch of trash.

He jumped off the Zhu chariot, resisted the Qiang and Hu's weapons alone, and walked under Duan Xi's chariot.

Duan Xi tried his best to smile, but Yang Qiu suddenly grabbed his arm and threw him to the ground.

"Come down, old man."
