Wang Yun had already learned that Liu Hong had sent the general He Jin to take him into custody, and he wanted to pack up his things and flee from Yuzhou, but then he received a letter from Yuan Kui.

After Wang Yun finished reading the letter, he no longer packed up his things, but had the leisure to watch the performance of the dancing girl and wait for He Jin to arrive.

Half a month later, Wang Yun was escorted to Luoyang by He Jin, and was put in prison, waiting for tomorrow morning to let Liu Hong personally try it.

That night, Yuan Kui bribed the guards guarding the prison, entered the prison alone, and stayed in the prison for several hours before leaving with a smile.

The next morning, Liu Hong summoned all the relevant personnel in the court and prepared to confront each other one by one to make the matter clear.

Liu Hong sat on the dragon chair, looked at the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, and said coldly: "Don't discuss other matters today, the widow will spend a day, and I must find out about this matter." ”

After Liu Hong finished speaking, his eyes looked at Wang Yun, and when he saw him lowering his head, he turned to Hua Xin with a cold snort, and saw him standing calmly above the court, and his heart was extremely curious.

"Since Liaodong Hou is the victim of this matter, it will be said by Hua Xin, the envoy of Liaodong."

Hua Xin heard Liu Hong's words, and respectfully told Liu Hong about the matter, starting from the assassination of Li Huiyi, and then chasing and killing all the way to Jingzhou to Liaodong, and then the rebellion in Liucheng, when it came to the sad place, he also left tears.

After Liu Hong heard this, he looked at Wang Yun with slightly red eyes, and scolded angrily: "Wang Yun! Wang Yun, what a good minister of the widow, he can order the officials of the states and counties along the way to murder the important ministers of the widow, and those who don't know think that this Han world belongs to you Wang Yun! ”

Wang Yun saw Liu Hong roaring, his legs were weak in fright, and he kept kowtowing and said: "The criminal minister Wang Yun deserves to die, I hope Your Majesty will spare your life, spare your life......"

Liu Hong saw blood coming out of Wang Yun's head, and said in a slightly softened tone: "I knew today, why bother at the beginning, and now let the widow spare you!" ”

Seeing this, Yuan Kui glanced at the ministers above him, and saw those ministers nodding and saying, "Your Majesty, since Wang Yun has already known his mistake, please look at Wang Yun's previous merits and spare his life." ”

"Please spare Wang Yun's life."

After those ministers finished speaking, they saw that most of the ministers came out to plead, Liu Hong's anger had subsided, and when he saw this scene, the anger in his heart rose again.

Liu Hongqiang held back his anger for a while, and then said coldly: "Since Zhong Aiqing pleaded, then put Wang Yun in prison and detained for five years." ”

Seeing that he had saved his life, Wang Yun hurriedly said: "The criminal minister bows to His Majesty for not killing, and the criminal minister thanks His Majesty for not killing......." ”

Seeing this, Liu Hong looked at Wang Yun impatiently, waved his hand, and saw a team of warriors walking into the hall and pulling Wang Yun away.

Liu Hong calmed his mood, looked at Hua Xin and said: "Since this matter has been revealed, the widow will appoint Li Huiyi as General Zuo, in charge of the military of various counties in Youzhou." ”

Hua Xin saw that Liu Hong didn't ask about Yuan Kui, and knew that there must be something greasy in it, so he quickly knelt down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace, but I'm afraid...... Fear....... ”

Liu Hong saw Hua Xin stumbling, and asked unhappily: "There is a widow here, Hua Aiqing can rest assured if he has something to say." ”

Seeing this, Hua Xin said: "The minister is afraid that when he returns to Youzhou, there will be villains intercepting and killing along the way. ”

Liu Hong glanced at Yuan Kui and saw him standing aside with an expressionless face, so he said: "Hua Aiqing, get up, if anyone dares to do this, the widow will let him die without a place to be buried!" ”

After hearing this, Hua Xin thanked him, got up and stood aside, Liu Hong saw this, warned the ministers of the court again, and turned around and left the palace.

Seeing this, the minister slowly withdrew from the palace, Hua Xin hurriedly returned to the post station, and set off with his entourage to hurry back to Liaodong.

When Liu Hong returned to the North Palace, he was extremely depressed, so he invited Zhang Rang to discuss. "Now the ministers of the court have many different intentions, even Wang Yun has committed such a capital crime, and there are people who intercede for him, which is really infuriating."

Seeing that Liu Hong was so angry, Zhang Rang hurriedly whispered: "Your Majesty doesn't need to be so angry, when the night comes, the minister will secretly execute Wang Yun in prison." ”

Liu Hong nodded and said, "Okay, only in this way can the hatred in the hearts of the widows be extinguished, and the ministers will be afraid in their hearts." ”

Zhang Rang saw that Liu Hong was still angry, so he quickly slapped a sycophant, making Liu Hong feel very comfortable.

Liu Hong waved away the troubles in his mind, remembered Yuan Kui's magic medicine, so he asked Zhang Rang to leave, took out the pills and took two pills, and then pulled up the two palace maids and walked to the bed to .......

Soon after Yuan Kui returned home, he learned the news from the palace, so he waited for the night to fall and went to the prison to wait for Zhang Rang to arrive.

Zhang Rang came to the prison with a few entourages and saw Wang Yun sitting in a daze. "Wang Tingshi is thinking about what is fascinating, let a certain guess, oh, maybe I am thinking about where to be buried after death, Wang Tingshi, do you say that a certain guess is right? Hey, hey, hey. ”

When Wang Yun heard the voice, he looked up and saw that it was Zhang Rang, so he cautiously asked, "Why did Master Zhang intimidate for no reason, Zishi didn't seem to be offended." ”

Zhang Rang walked to the prison door and smiled: "Lord Wang has not offended the usual servant, but he has offended someone who should not be offended. ”

After Wang Yun heard this, his face changed, and he suddenly said: "You are Li Huiyi's gang, no wonder you want to put your master to death." ”

Seeing that he had guessed, Zhang Rang sneered: "Hey, hey, Lord Wang is really smart, it's a pity that I won't be able to see the sun tomorrow, it's a pity, it's a pity." ”

Wang Yun hurriedly retreated to the wall, looked at the smiling Zhang Rang, and threatened in a panic: "Don't come here, if the master is a little damaged, Taifu Yuan will not let you go." ”

"Hahaha!" Seeing Wang Yun's threat, Zhang Rang smiled even more happily, and after a while, he put away his smile and said, "What a Mrs. Yuan, I'm afraid that he will not be able to protect himself." ”

Wang Yun looked at Zhang Rang who was gradually coming, and yelled loudly in despair, Zhang Rang walked up to him, waved his hand to hold Wang Yun down, took out the poison, and prepared to forcibly give Wang Yun a drink.

"Stop, Your Majesty has promised not to hold Wang Yun accountable, how can you and other eunuchs murder without permission?"

Zhang Rang looked back when he heard the sound, and saw that the person who came was Yuan Kui, so he said with an unkind face: "Mrs. Yuan still take care of your life, don't meddle in this matter, this is Your Majesty's personal edict." ”

Wang Yun was held down by his hands and feet, and when he saw Yuan Kui coming, he hurriedly cried as if he had encountered a life-saving straw: "Taifu can remember our appointment, if the life of the master is not guaranteed, who will dare to serve the Yuan family in the future!" ”

Yuan Kui thought about it after hearing this, looked at Zhang Rang and said, "Since it is Your Majesty's will, there is an edict, take it out and let the old man take a look." ”

Zhang Rang excused himself and said: "This is Your Majesty's oral metaphor, if Taifu Yuan wants to read the edict, wait until the minister goes back and let His Majesty issue an edict and send it to the house." ”

Yuan Kui sneered: "Since there is no edict, then I'm afraid you did it privately, I'm afraid that when the time comes, the ministers will criticize you and other eunuchs." ”

Seeing this, Zhang Rang knew that he would definitely not be able to kill Wang Yun today, so he smiled and said, "Okay, good!" Since Mrs. Yuan wants to protect Wang Yun to the death, the minister will give face, hoping that Mrs. Yuan will stay here every day in the future. ”

Zhang Rang put down his cruel words, waved his hand and led everyone away, Wang Yun was let go, and sat paralyzed on the ground, sweating profusely on his face.

Yuan Kui stepped forward to help Wang Yun up, looked at Wang Yun's spiritless appearance, shook his head and said, "The old man has a plan to save Zishi's life, I don't know if Zishi can agree." ”

When Wang Yun heard that he could save his life, he hurriedly looked at Yuan Kui and nodded, Yuan Kui saw this, stepped forward and whispered a few words in his ear, and stood aside waiting for Wang Yun to make a decision.

Wang Yun was very entangled in his heart at this time, and after thinking for a long time, he sighed and said, "Hey! Anyway, everything is in the past, and the master listened to the words of Mrs. Yuan. ”

Yuan Kui nodded, and led everyone away, leaving Wang Yun alone in prison sighing.

That night, there was a fire in Luoyang Prison, and the prison guards tried their best to extinguish the fire, and found several missing prisoners, including Wang Yun, so they panicked and reported to their superiors.

The news reached the ears of Liu Hong, who was working the palace maid, and the angry Liu Hong executed several people on the spot and scolded the ministers of the court.

A few days later, in the early court, Liu Hong escorted the prison guards and others to the palace that night, beheaded them for the ministers to see, and said that if there was a next time, he would directly kill all the people involved.

Liu Hong's killing of chickens and monkeys has an obvious effect, and the ministers have restrained a lot, and they have also explained to the family when they go back, and they must not go out to cause trouble during this time, otherwise no one will be able to save them.

Yuan Kui also offered half of the Yuan family's property a few days later, and let Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao take up positions under He Jin.

Liu Hong saw that Yuan Kui was full of sincerity, so he no longer held him responsible, but he sighed in his heart that there were no soldiers in his hands, so he re-established the eighth captain of Xiyuan, and let his henchman Jian Shuo serve as the captain of the military academy to control the whole army, so that he was down-to-earth.

He Jin saw the arrival of Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, and also bought Yuan Kui's face, and named Yuan Shu as the general of the Tiger Ben, and Yuan Shao as the lieutenant of the Central Military Academy.

Although Jian Shuo knew the intentions of Yuan Shao and others, he was not at ease, thinking that it was just Yuan Shao alone, so what was there to be afraid of, it was better to buy Yuan Kui, He Jin and others face, after all, he had just taken office, and it was too stiff, and it was not good for himself.

Since Yuan Kui donated his family property and sent Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao into the army, he stayed at home every day except for the morning court time, and he didn't look like he was concerned about the world, but he did secretly win over the heavy generals who held the army outside.

When Liu Hong saw that the ministers of the court had returned to their obedient appearance, he no longer cared about it, and took magic medicine all day long, harming the harem maids.

On this day, Liu Hong was venting on the palace maid, so he turned over and lay on the bed weakly panting, thinking that the effect of this magic medicine has become smaller, and he should take a few more pills next time.

After Liu Hong thought about it, he issued an edict to let Yuan Kui contribute the magic medicine again, which was ready for his own fun.

When Yuan Kui heard the news, he was secretly shocked in his heart, if Liu Hong used it in this way, he was afraid that he would not survive this year, but now he is not ready, how should this be.

Yuan Kui thought about it for a long time, and he didn't come up with a way, so he kept resigning and was looking for someone to practice, but he couldn't stand Liu Hong sending people to ask every day, and under Liu Hong's repeated urging and inquiry, he could only helplessly contribute another batch of miracle medicines.

After Yuan Kui offered medicine, he hurried to win over the generals abroad, and under the prestige of the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, and the temptation of Yuan Kui's high-ranking officials, he also won the allegiance of some generals.
