Chapter 684 You can scold you, but I can't scold you? (Traveling back to the original
Ni Heng walked up the hill step by step.
In just a few dozen steps, he walked out of the heroic spirit of tens of millions of people and all of them were gone.
When he stood in front of the emperor, he was already sweating all over, his face was pale, and his breath was as painful as a cow. His legs were so painful that he could not help but tremble.
Only the expression is still stubborn.
Liu Xie looked at Ni Heng, confused.
What's wrong with Ni Heng? Why are you gritting your teeth and looking like you're going to kill someone.
He kept staring at Cao Cao. Could it be that Cao Cao killed his relatives and friends? Or did he hear from Yang Biao that Cao Cao criticized Zhang Xi and obstructed Zhang Xi's posthumous title?
Cao Cao also felt Ni Heng's hostility, but he didn't say anything.
The emperor has given him good arrangements, and he doesn't need to be angry with Ni Heng. On the contrary, the more he acts low-key, the more the emperor will sympathize with him.
After a while, Liu Xie coughed.
"Ni Zhengping, it seems that you are coming to see me not to have a solution to the people, but to have something to say to Mr. Cao?"
Ni Heng withdrew his glaring eyes to Cao Cao and bowed: "Your Majesty, Heng is prone to ask Your Majesty to answer your doubts. Your Majesty always wants to seek peace for the people, and he does not hesitate to be enemies with the scholars and officials in the world. Why do he talk about the common men who kill innocent people and slaughter the people.
?”
Liu Xie raised his eyelids and snorted. "You are also a person who is familiar with poetry and books. Do you not understand the principles of punishing past mistakes and curing diseases and saving lives?"
Ni Heng shouted: "There is no cure for this kind of person, and he can only kill him in the market to thank the world."
Cao Cao lowered his eyelids and said nothing.
Liu Xie turned to look at Cao Cao. "How many people have you killed in Pengcheng?"
Cao Cao left the seat and crawled on the ground. "As Ni Heng said, I am guilty of my crimes, and I will die more than anything else."
Liu Xie turned to look at Ni Heng again. "How many people did he kill?"
Ni Heng said angrily: "Heng has never counted it, but Si Shui has not flowed, at least 100,000."
"It's indeed not much for 100,000." Liu Xie nodded and said, "Then do you know how many people have been placed in his military farming in Xu County?"
Ni Heng was speechless and then said, "Can he repay the merits because he has made contributions to the people?"
"I didn't say that." Liu Xie waved his hand and told Ni Heng not to be anxious. "I just said that he has both the fault of massacre of the city and the achievements of the people. Even if he cannot compare with his merits and demerits, he cannot just kill people. Before you come
, He has asked an edict to guard the border and continue to atone for his sins. Do you think it is feasible?"
Ni Heng was stunned for a moment and looked at Cao Cao in confusion.
Cao Cao asked for an imperial edict to garrison the border and slaughter Pengcheng? This seemed feasible, and it was even better than killing him directly.
It is hard to defend the border, and it looks like exile. Many people guarding the border are originally prisoners.
Cao Cao voluntarily pleaded guilty and asked to guard the border, which made him difficult to say anything.
"Don't have any objection? Or do you feel uncomfortable and have to kill me?" Liu Xie asked.
Ni Heng was speechless, but years of debate experience told him that the emperor was so aggressive, I was afraid that he hoped he would object, and then there was something to wait for him.
His mind changed and he suddenly felt shocked.
Cao Cao had so many military achievements, but the emperor only mentioned that he was busy farming and restoring the people. Naturally, it was because military farming and resting the people in line with the emperor's idea, but the scholars and doctors who obstructed the farming and resting the people in the world were contrary to the emperor's idea.
If Cao Cao's contribution to farming and restoring the people and insisted on killing Cao Cao, then how should the literati who obstructed the fields and indirectly caused the Yellow Turban Incident and caused tens of millions of casualties to deal with it?
It is light to send all to the border guards.
Ni Heng was scared and sweated coldly, and hurriedly said, "It's good to guard the border, it's good to guard the border."
"It's good if you don't have any objection." Liu Xie nodded. "Is there anything else I want to say?"
"It's gone, it's gone." Ni Heng shook his hand repeatedly, turned around and walked. After walking a few steps, he remembered his purpose. He couldn't help but slow down and looked back at the emperor. Seeing that the emperor was also looking at him, his eyes were full of war.
Anran suddenly felt guilty and never dared to stay anymore and hurried downhill.
Kong Rong could see clearly and was stunned.
He had never seen Ni Heng so embarrassed.
Not right, I saw it once two days ago.
"Zhengping, what did the emperor say?"
Ni Heng lowered his head and took his seat. "The emperor said that Cao Cao would go to guard the border and redeem the crime of massacre of the city."
Kong Rong was stunned for a moment. "This is a solution. It's just..."
He pondered and realized the problem.
The emperor did not let Cao Cao go easily, and could he let go of Shandong scholars and officials who had no soldiers?
The matter of diving the field...is imperative.
If this is true, how could Zhang Xi, who opposed Dutian, ask for a posthumous posthumous title? The emperor would definitely not agree.
Kong Rong held the biographies in her sleeve, and had a headache.
It shouldn't be here today.
But what should come will always come.
"Kong Lingshi, have you rested? Your Majesty is here to invite you." Cao Ang came to the slope again and bowed to Kong Rong.
Ni Heng lowered his head and was unwilling to look at Cao Ang.
Kong Rong had no way to retreat, so he had to get up, followed Cao Ang up the hillside, and came to the emperor.
Liu Xie couldn't sit upright.
Kong Rong was just a record of the Taiwei Mansion, and was not enough to be respected by the emperor. As for his identity as the saint, Liu Xie didn't care much about it.
Even if Confucius was alive, he would not take it seriously, let alone the descendants of the sages.
After the saints, there are many people who don’t become human beings.
Kong Rong felt the emperor's indifference and looked awkward.
After Kong Rong finished his tribute, Liu Xie said in a light tone: "Is it the matter of the Taiwei Mansion or a personal matter?"
Kong Rong bowed again. "I was wrongly loved by Your Majesty, and I asked him to write a draft of the biography of Sikong Zhang Jili. I dare to ask Your Majesty to read it." As he said that, he handed over the article that was soaked in sweat.
Liu Xie took it, but did not rush to open it, but stared at the paper for a while and raised his eyelids.
"I heard that Sikong had seen him before he passed away?"
"yes."
"Where?"
"Pengcheng." Kong Rong hesitated for a moment and said again: "Outside Pengcheng."
"What did you say?"
Kong Rong felt bitter in his mouth. He had to come whatever he should come, but he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to.
"I blame him for his negligence and stayed outside the city, and failed to enter the city in time to boost morale."
“That’s all?”
"That's it."
Liu Xie chuckled, looked down at the manuscript in his hand, was silent for a moment, and said, "I heard that Ling Shi Shaoshi had once climbed to Li Yuanli's Longmen."
"This is indeed happening." Kong Rong was uneasy.
"Then are you a dragon or a fish now?" Liu Xie raised his head again, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. "Although Li Yuanli is crazy, he can still wear armor and get on a horse, and he has made contributions to guarding the border. You have only walked a few miles and are tired
As a result, no wonder he had to fight against the Yellow Turbans and ask Liu Xuande to rescue him."
Kong Rong's face was red and his ears were red, and his blood was pouring up. He couldn't help but feel a little suppressed. He said loudly: "I am indeed incompetent and I am ashamed of Li Yuanli. But Your Majesty treats me like this, I'm afraid it is not a way to treat you."
Liu Xie couldn't help but smile. "What, you can't scold Zhang Yuanli, but I can't scold you?"
