Chapter 588: The Great Han Envoy
Fan Chou and Zhang Ji were killed, and the Xiliang army also lost the courage to resist.
Ma Teng and Yang Feng led the troops to encircle and suppress the whole city, and the Xiliang soldiers they encountered either surrendered voluntarily or were killed.
In half a day, all the Xiliang soldiers in the city were cleaned up.
Ma Teng was arrogant, and he also looked down on the Xiliang soldiers in the city, so he did not surrender the Xiliang soldiers. In this way, Yang Feng benefited from it and brought all the surrendered Xiliang soldiers in the city under his command, increasing his strength.
In the afternoon, Liu Xie summoned the important ministers of the court and announced the charges against Zhang Ji and Fan Chou in front of all the courtiers.
The two Xiliang warlords who had been entrenched in Chang'an for two years were finally destroyed by the three clans.
Historically, Zhang Ji's wife Zou was a full, charming and seductive, beautiful and unparalleled, Cao Cao saw Zou and was so dazzled that Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang and his personal guard Dian Wei were killed.
However, due to the arrival of Wang Can, Li Dao and Guo Yan were killed in advance, and the people who finally controlled Chang'an became Zhang Ji and Fan Chou. Two people, Fan Chou was killed by Xu Huang, Zhang Ji was killed by Ma Chao, and both of them were killed by the three clans, and the Zou family was also killed in advance because of this, and there was one less stunning woman in the Three Kingdoms.
Among the generals of the Xiliang Army, only Zhang Xiu, who was leading the troops outside, escaped and was not killed.
Throughout the afternoon, orders continued to be issued in the court, and all officials who were promoted by Fan Chou and Zhang Ji were all belittled and never hired. Instead, Liu Dan, Liu Fan, Ma Yu, Chong Shao, Dong Cheng, Fu Wan and others became important ministers in the court, while Ma Teng and Yang Feng were also promoted to knighthood and became the new upstarts of the Han Dynasty.
However, although Liu Xie was excited, he did not get carried away.
He knew that the killing of Fan Chou and Zhang Ji was only the beginning, and the next step was the real test.
Liu Xian told him that he must take Chang'an as a foothold and Xiliang as the foundation, however, the premise for Chang'an to be stable is that Wang Can and Cao Cao recognize him as an emperor and obey his orders in order to develop.
However, once Cao Cao and Wang Can attacked Chang'an, Liu Xie had no confidence, so he had to find a way to solve Wang Can and Cao Cao in order to have time for steady development. Liu Xie directly summoned Liu Fan, Liu Dan, Dong Cheng, Fu Wan and other important ministers of the court, and told them to select two people to go to Wang Can and Cao Cao's camp to announce the decree, and let Wang Can and Cao Cao return to their respective jurisdictions.
However, a group of ministers, none of them wanted to go.
Several important ministers of the court have become turtles with shrunken heads, and they dare not take the will of the little emperor to go.
The reason for this is naturally because they can't be sure what Wang Can and Cao Cao are thinking, and if they hit the knife, they will not be killing themselves.
Liu Xie was angry in his heart, but he was helpless.
This group of people is the foundation for him to control the dynasty, and without them, it would be difficult for the dynasty to function.
Seeing this situation, Liu Xie agreed with Liu Xian's words that no one was reliable. However, he also had to rely on Ma Teng and Yang Feng to send someone to deliver the message. In the palace, Liu Xie was sitting in danger, looked at Yang Feng and Maitan, and said: "Two Aiqing, Chang'an has been decided, but the threat is still there, and the two Aiqing are needed to make a move to stabilize the situation!" ”
Ma Teng clenched his fists and said: "Your Majesty, please say, the minister will go to the soup and fight the fire, and he will not give up!" ”
Yang Feng was not to be outdone, and hugged his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is a martial artist, and he doesn't understand the affairs of the imperial court, but the minister swears to be loyal to His Majesty." Your Majesty, just say it, and where you point, the minister will call you. ”
Liu Xie nodded and smiled, the two of them restrained each other and competed with each other, which was a good sign.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Lai Maqing and Yang Qing's help, get rid of Fan Chou and Zhang Ji." However. Wang Can and Cao Cao still led the army to come, and they did not know the news that Chang'an had been pacified. Therefore, I need the two Aiqing to each send a wise and brave person to Wang Can and Cao Cao's camp respectively, read the will, and let the two go back. ”
After hearing this, the faces of the two changed greatly.
This is not a simple matter, but if the two of them want to stabilize the situation in Chang'an, they must send people.
Ma Teng was just about to speak, but before he could speak, Ma Chao, who was kneeling behind him, had already stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, the last general is willing to take the holy decree to Wang Can's camp and read the holy decree." ”
"Good! Good! ”
Liu Xie stroked his palms and praised, and said: "Jiangmen Huzi, Jiangmen Huzi!" ”
He sighed, which made Yang Feng very uncomfortable.
At this time, Xu Huang also stood up from behind Yang Feng, walked to the main hall and clenched his fists and said: "Your Majesty, the last general Mao Sui recommended himself, please go to Cao Cao's camp to read the will, and let Cao Cao lead the troops to retreat." ”
"Good!"
Liu Xie nodded and smiled calmly.
He took out the written holy decree directly from the desk, handed it to Ma Chao and Xu Huang respectively, and then said: "The two Aiqing should leave as soon as possible, the sooner the better, if Wang Can and Cao Cao lead the army to approach Chang'an, it will be a little late to read the holy decree again, so the two Aiqing should hurry up and try to hurry." ”
"The last will obey!"
The two of them clasped their fists in reply, and then returned to their seats.
Liu Xie talked to Ma Teng and Yang Feng for a while, and then sent Ma Teng and Yang Feng, with Ma Chao and Xu Huang to convey the holy decree, Liu Xie could also deduce the intentions of Wang Can and Cao Cao.
Outside the palace, Ma Teng and Ma Chao boarded the carriage together, while Yang Feng and Xu Huang also got into another carriage.
Ma Teng was furious and scolded: "Meng Qi, why are you so impulsive, take the initiative to go to Wang Can's camp to announce the decree, then Wang Can's command has countless fierce generals, and when you enter the camp, you have entered the Longtan Tiger's Den, and you can't help yourself!" ”
Ma Chao smiled: "Daddy, I just want to see Wang Can." ”
After Ma Teng heard this, he was even more angry.
Ma Chao thought about it carefully and said, "Dad, my son is thoughtful and has no impulses. As an envoy of the Son of Heaven, my son went to Wang Can's camp and it seemed dangerous on the surface, but Wang Can didn't dare to take me? As long as he doesn't rebel, his son is safe, you can rest assured, his son has his own plans and won't run to his death. ”
After hearing this, Ma Teng nodded.
After listening to Ma Chao's explanation, it seemed that this was the truth, and Ma Teng was relieved.
On the other side, Yang Feng sighed: "Gongming, if you hadn't taken the initiative to stand up and ask for help in the palace just now, I'm afraid that this general would have been embarrassed in front of the little emperor." It's hateful, it's hateful that Ma Chao took the initiative to ask Ying to run to Wang Can's camp so disregardful of the overall situation, don't you say that this is deliberately embarrassing the general? ”
He chirped and said a call before turning to the point.
Yang Feng said in a deep voice: "Gongming, Cao Cao is a thief and cunning person, after you go, you must be careful and careful, don't fall for Cao Cao's tricks, no matter whether you can complete the will of the little emperor or not, you must ensure your own safety." You go to Cao Cao's camp, and I will give you 400 soldiers as escorts to protect your safety. ”
After Xu Huang heard this, a flash of gratitude flashed on his face.
No matter what Yang Feng's personality is, he really values Xu Huang very much.
Xu Huang clasped his fists and said, "Lord, four hundred people are too ostentatious, one hundred people are enough." There are 100 elite soldiers, which can already ensure the safety of the last general, which can also show the emperor's prestige, which is just right. ”
Yang Feng nodded and said, "You can make up your own mind about this matter." ”
The two of them were silent again.
In this way, Liu Xie sent two envoys to Wang Can and Cao Cao's camp respectively to block Wang Can and Cao Cao's advance, and wanted Wang Can and Cao Cao to return to their respective territories.
PS: The third of the four guarantees is to ask for collections and flowers.
