Chapter 427: Rumors Rise (2)
Dong Cheng was also playing the drum in his heart, and he didn't know if such a big thing was planned by the Son of Heaven himself. If so, how should you arrange it? While thinking about it, he suddenly heard the Son of Heaven ask: "What does General Dong want?" ”
When Dong Cheng heard this, he was shocked in his heart. The Son of Heaven has always trusted himself, so he can be in charge of the soldiers and horses as a relative. How many years have the Son of Heaven ever called himself General Dong? Listening to this tone again, it seems very bad.
Dong Cheng looked up and saw that the Son of Heaven, who was still kind and pleasant, was already clouded with clouds on his face at this time. After all, the emperor is the emperor, the co-lord of the world, and the supreme of the sea. No matter how weak he is, after ten years of being the Son of Heaven, as soon as the momentum on this body is released, Dong Cheng can't resist.
Dong Cheng slumped on his waist, fell to the ground, and said: "When the minister received this letter, he was terrified, so he came to see His Majesty, disturbed the holy driver, and the minister was guilty of death. ”
When the Son of Heaven heard this, he knew that Dong Cheng was not involved, so his heart was relieved, his tone relaxed, and said: "It is not easy for the imperial court to have such a situation, Dong Qing can understand the general situation, what is the crime." Hurry up. ”
Since Dong Cheng was not involved, the Son of Heaven was not worried that Liu Bei would suspect him in anger. As he himself said, it was not easy to come by in such a situation, and the Son of Heaven really didn't want to destroy the mutual trust between him and Liu Bei. Before the great cause is accomplished, the monarch and the minister are jealous, and this big man can still be saved?
The Son of Heaven pondered for a while, then sent the waiter out, and secretly summoned Taifu Yang Biao, Zhijin Wufuwan, Weiwei Lu Zhi and others to meet. After thinking about it, he asked Xun Yu again.
After a while, all the people arrived, and when they arrived, the Son of Heaven showed them a letter. Said: "The great general has made great contributions to the country, how can I allow such words to be tarnished." I want to order Yousi to investigate this matter thoroughly, what do you think? ”
The ministers stood up one after another, standing from a commanding angle, and fiercely accused the rumor-mongers. Then he didn't say more, but he turned his eyes to the last person on the train.
Xun Yu saw that everyone was looking at him, so he stood up and said, "Your Majesty, since this matter involves the general, it is better to hand over this matter to the ministers to deal with." ”
When the Son of Heaven heard this, he smiled and said, "It should be so." Played by the Commander-in-Chief. He said that he wanted people to investigate, but it was just to show Liu Bei his attitude and prove that he did not participate in targeting him. Xun Yu was interested and took this matter over. Naturally, he was willing.
When the ministers saw Xun Yu come forward, they also breathed a long sigh in their hearts. Xun Yu took the initiative to take care of the matter, proving that the General's Mansion had been paying attention to the follow-up. If Xun Yu ignores and remains silent, then it is not good that Liu Bei will take the opportunity to make a big deal.
Among the several people here, Taifu Yang Biaogang compromised with Liu Bei; Fu Wan and Dong Cheng are relatives, and they will not act without the instruction of the Son of Heaven; Not to mention Lu Zhi. Since several people here are all credible. Xun Yu said bluntly: "There are arrangements in the house, and I ask you to keep this matter secret for the time being." ”
This kind of rumor involving the throne has always been a very taboo thing. Everyone was afraid of implicating themselves, so they hurriedly agreed. When the Son of Heaven saw that the matter had been spoken, he ordered everyone to retreat.
The ministers retreated, and the Son of Heaven entered the inner chamber, and after bowing down, he greeted him, and said worriedly: "Your Majesty, I heard rumors that the general wants to seize the throne, I don't know if it's true or not?" ”
The Son of Heaven frowned, and asked left and right: "Who is chewing his tongue and confusing the palace?" "Kneel left and right, don't dare to do it. Although the Son of Heaven can't control the world at this time, if he wants to kill a few slaves and maids, is it not arbitrary?
Fu Hou has a supple personality and a benevolent nature, and when she saw that the Son of Heaven was angry, she hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't blame it, it was the palace that overheard a voice from outside the palace wall." "Although the palace of Qi is large, it is not as good as the imperial residences of Luoyang and Chang'an. The palace of Qi is separated by a wall, is the market, although there is a reconstruction, but to say that it is completely isolated from the voice, but it is impossible.
After listening to the queen's explanation, the Son of Heaven raised his eyebrows and smiled at Fu Hou: "Queen, relax." The general was full of blood for the Han Dynasty, and at this time he still led his troops to fight for the imperial court. What is rumored to be outside is just nonsense created by a group of clowns who jump off the beam. ”
Couples in distress always have a deeper relationship than ordinary people. After listening to it, she dispersed her sorrow a little, and whispered a conversation with the Son of Heaven, and then went to bed together.
Not only Dong Cheng, Zhang Xiu also received a secret letter. is different from Dong receiving the letter and going to see the Son of Heaven. Zhang Xiu went straight to Jia Xu's mansion. Zhang Xiu is brave and martial, but in major matters, he relies on Jia Xu very much. During the few years of getting along in Jingzhou, the two trusted each other and cooperated tacitly, and it is still the case to this day.
When Zhang Xiu first came to Qingzhou, he also hesitated, facing the behemoth of Qingzhou Group, whether to stand with the imperial court to keep warm. As a result, before he could straighten out his thinking, he was transferred to the front line. After a big battle with Jizhou, while completely understanding Liu Bei's strength, he also extinguished the small flame in his heart.
In his letter, Jia Xu made it very clear that he was going to squeeze into a decaying and sinking old ship. Or is it comfortable to be the founding feats of a new dynasty? Zhang Xiu is not stupid, and naturally knows how to choose. The thought he had before was just a manifestation of the insecurity that he had felt when he had arrived in a new environment and was afraid of being annexed. After a few contacts, Liu Bei has the ability and means to tolerate people, and Zhang Xiu gradually put his mind at ease. It's just that it hasn't been officially stated yet, and the name has been decided.
This time he received a secret letter, and he did not go to see Xun Yu, but came to Jia Xu first. One is his habit. The second is that he is quite unclear about the state of affairs, and in the face of the fog in front of him, he has no choice but to come to consult Jia Xu.
In Jiafu, Jia Xu and Zhang Xiu sat down as the guest of honor, and then Zhang Xiu got straight to the point, took out the letter, and said, "Jia Gong, what should be done about this matter?" ”
Jia Xu didn't accept the letter, his face seemed to be smiling, and said, "Wen Jin, the old man has already read the letter." Last night, the Son of Heaven secretly summoned Taifu, Wen Ruo and others into the interior to play the right thing, just for this matter. The Son of Heaven has entrusted this matter to Wen Ruo. ”
Zhang Xiu's heart jumped, he came to Jia Xu's mansion, but he didn't know if this matter was as stated in the letter, and he was done by the secret edict of the Son of Heaven. Who would have thought that as soon as they came, they would hear such a result.
Jia Xu asked Zhang Xiudao: "Wen Jin, if what is said in the letter is true, do you want to be from the Son of Heaven and from the general?" When he asked this, he directly put Zhang Xiu on the wall.
Zhang Xiu's face changed, and after a little hesitation, he said categorically: "Since I am under the orders of the general, the soldiers and horses of the headquarters are naturally controlled by the general!" "He is worthy of being a man who has been in the army for many years and has fought on the battlefield. Once he makes a decision, it will be a sea of swords and fires, and it will be difficult to shake his will.
Zhang Xiu grew up in Liangzhou, where for more than 100 years, it was a chaotic place with no order. The following sins are already numerous. After seeing the generals of Liangzhou playing with the Chang'an court in the palm of his hand, his awe of the court and the Son of Heaven instantly dropped to the lowest. Now just like the generals of Liangzhou chose the boss back then, since Zhang Xiu himself does not have the ability to be the leading brother, then it is better to choose the most powerful person. And the imperial court, in Zhang Xiu's opinion, is very weak. Whether it is righteousness or fame, without the support of actual embodied power, it is just a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water.
