After seeing Guo Tu off, Wei Gu breathed a sigh of relief.
The incident started because of Guo Tu, and now it has ended with Guo Tu's departure.
Although Guo Tu spoke righteously, he could feel Guo Tu's nervousness and anxiety. If the stalemate continues, there may not be a better result, so it is better to give up.
Wei Gu came to Yang Biao's courtyard, knelt down and apologized, and pushed all the responsibility on Guo Tu, expressing his willingness to surrender.
Yang Biao looked at Wei Gu for a while, sighed, and got up to change his clothes.
Wei Gu immediately arranged for surrender, and before sunrise, he opened the manor gate and accompanied Yang Biao to Shi Sun Rui's camp.
The morning breeze was cold, and Wei Gu felt a little regretful.
After a while, I didn't get any benefits, and I lost half of my property in vain and was humiliated.
If he had known this, he would never have listened to Guo Tu's bewitching.
Shi Sunrui received the report and went out of the camp in person to welcome Yang Biao. Yang Biao stared at Shi Sunrui for a long time and sighed.
"Jun Rong, you disappointed me so much."
Shi Sun Rui smiled bitterly. "Shame, ashamed."
Yang Biao sighed again and stepped into the camp.
Shi Sun Rui ordered people to lead Yang Biao into the camp to rest, then detain Wei Gu's collection, take over the Wei family manor, and count the stored grain and property.
"Your Majesty, Grand Marshal Yang Biao asked for a meeting."
"Who?" Liu Xie, who was at the desk reviewing the documents, raised his head and looked shocked.
"Taiwei... Yang Biao." The Minister of the Hu Ben said again, looking at Liu Xie with a little puzzled look. It was the first time he saw Liu Xie showing such a look.
Liu Xie was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, put down the pen in his hand, rubbed his hands that were frozen to the point of being frozen.
Yang Biao is here? There is an article here.
When Yang Biao was originally detained by Wei Gu in Wei's Manor, he was able to appear here, either Shi Sun Rui had occupied Wei's Manor, or Wei Gu took the initiative to release him.
No matter what, Shi Sun Rui should have sent a message in advance, and Yang Biao appeared directly outside the camp should not have happened at all.
Unless it is done intentionally.
Liu Xie thought about it and asked the Minister of the Hu Ben to go and pass it on Cai Yan first.
Cai Yan has been very busy recently. When Liu Xie did not meet the minister, she sorted out the documents in the small tent next to her.
Cai Yan came soon, looking uneasy.
She also realized what it means to suddenly appear Yang Biao.
Only then did Liu Xie ask the Minister of the Hu Ben to pass on Yang Biao.
There were more than 200 steps from the camp gate to the big tent. Before Yang Biao arrived, Liu Xie had enough time to exchange views with Cai Yan.
Cai Yan couldn't guess what happened, so she could only remind Liu Xie to calm down.
No matter what, it is a good thing for Yang Biao to escape from danger. No matter what happens, as the emperor, he must have a cunning man who collapses before his face and keeps his face unchanged, and he must also show his due respect to the old ministers.
Liu Xie nodded, adjusted his expression, stood up, and walked out of the tent.
Yang Biao walked over quickly and saw the emperor standing outside the tent to greet him. He felt warm and guilty. He accelerated his pace, came to the emperor, stood firm, his arms spread, his sleeves fluttered like wings, and bowed down to bow.
"Lin Jin Hou, the Grand Marshal, I have met Your Majesty."
Liu Xie took a step forward and held Yang Biao's arm.
"Thank you for your hard work in the Grand Marshal."
Yang Biao smiled bitterly. "I am ashamed of being trapped by villains, and I have affected Your Majesty's personal expedition and have committed suicide."
Liu Xie smiled and said, "You, my king and my ministers have experienced countless dangers together for several years. What's the point of hard work? Look, I'm hunting here, there is no danger at all."
"Your Majesty..." Yang Biao wanted to speak but stopped.
Liu Xie raised his hand and waved his hand gently. "Taiwei, it's windy outside, come in and talk."
Yang Biao sighed secretly.
After he escaped from the trap, he took a short rest and hurried to the emperor's camp, just to explain this matter to the emperor himself, take responsibility, and excuse his scholar Sun Rui.
But seeing the emperor so enthusiastic, he felt it was hard to speak out.
After the two entered the tent, Liu Xie ordered the seat to be given, and asked Yang Biao if he had eaten. His tone was kind and gentle, and there was no sign of anything unusual.
But Yang Biao became more and more uneasy.
Although the emperor was young, he was a cunning person.
When the censor Hou Wen used the convenience of disaster relief to embezzle food, the emperor was so calm and calm that he weighed rice in front of the imperial seat, making Hou Wen unable to hide, and even if the officials wanted to cover it up for him, they would have no chance.
This time, Shi Sun Rui took action first and then reported, violating the emperor's established rules and accepting Wei Gu's surrender, the responsibility was much more serious than that of Hou Wen's corruption.
He suddenly appeared here, and the emperor could not feel anything.
The more calm the emperor was, the more he was mentally prepared.
Yang Biao quietly glanced at Cai Yan, who was in charge of the record.
Cai Yan held the pen and lowered his head, not looking at Yang Biao at all.
The emperor smiled very gently, but the atmosphere in the tent was a little cold.
Yang Biao hesitated for a moment and left the seat and bowed again. "Your Majesty, I am guilty."
Liu Xie also put away his smile and looked at Yang Biao quietly.
"What is the crime of the Taiwei?"
"I am not careful in my actions and are trapped by Wei Gu and Fan Xian. I failed His Majesty's trust and delayed the rebellion of the Wei Gu. In order to protect my life, Wei Gu accepted Wei Gu's request to surrender."
Liu Xie's eyes twitched and his eyelids drooped.
It is no surprise that Weigu please surrender.
Shi Sun Rui accepted Wei Gu's request to surrender, but never reported it. This was an accident.
The two battalions were more than forty miles apart, and the knights had only half a day to travel.
It’s not that Shi Sun Rui cannot report in advance, but that he intends not to report and act first and then report.
Yang Biao knew that the scholar Sun Rui had taken action first and then reported, but he came in person and took the initiative to take responsibility to excuse the scholar Sun Rui.
These old ministers treated me as children and joined hands to fool me.
Liu Xie was very angry and even had the urge to order Yang Biao to be pushed out and cut him off.
But he held back.
In addition to Cai Yan's reminder, there was also a voice in his heart reminding him.
Killing Yang Biao will not solve the problem.
Even killing Shi Sun Rui is useless.
In order to save Yang Biao, Shi Sun Rui violated the edict and accepted Wei Gu's request to surrender, giving Wei Gu a chance to survive. Is it wrong?
No.
On the contrary, this is exactly his performance of responsibility, at least in the eyes of many ministers.
Li Ying killed Zhang Rang's brother and Zhang Jian killed Hou Lan's family, which was much more serious than this, but no one accused them. Instead, many people felt that they were doing the right thing and were passed down from all over the world.
Shi Sun Rui not only saved Yang Biao, but also saved hundreds of Wei clan members. This is a great merit, so what is wrong?
Is it wrong for Yang Biao to take the initiative to take responsibility and excuse his scholar Sun Rui?
That's right.
The Taiwei commanded the troops and Situ governed the people was the goal of the ministers of the foreign court. Now the opportunity is right in front of him, so naturally he cannot be missed. In order to protect Shi Sun Rui, Yang Biao sacrificed himself at all costs. This is a manifestation of knowing the general and being honest.
.
As for the edict and the emperor's face, it is not important compared to this.
On the contrary, the emperor should reward them, otherwise they would be foolish monarchs and lack elegance. Not only would they not receive support from ministers, but they would also arouse group opposition. Maybe someone would bring out the two emperors Huan Ling as negative examples and teach him a lesson.
