The hall is becoming more and more chaotic, although Fan Chou is brave and abnormal, but the hundred officials are many and powerful. In addition, Fan Chou didn't dare to really hurt the lives of hundreds of officials, and for a while, Fan Chou was beaten to the point that his nose was blue and his face was swollen.

Han Rong was beaten by Fan Chou just now, and he was disgraced, and now he saw the right time and made a flirtatious leg at Fan Chou's crotch.

Fan Chou felt a pain in his lower body, and tears were actually rolling in his eyes. Some officials even took advantage of this time to pick at their nostrils.

Liu Xie looked at the chaotic crowd and suddenly became dumbfounded. He didn't expect that the hundred officials, who had always been humble and pay attention to etiquette, would break out in such an ugly state.

"If you have something to discuss, don't do it again!"

Fan Chou's lower body was attacked, and he immediately went berserk, knocking out several officials one after another. Liu Xiesheng was afraid that the hundred officials would lose, so he hurriedly spoke out to stop him.

However, everyone was angry, how could they listen to Liu Xie's words?

Watching coldly, Chen Xu saw that the hundred officials were getting more and more intense, and some directly picked up the dishes on the case, and even picked up the case, and wanted to smash Fan Chou.

Chen Xu naturally didn't want to watch Fan Chou suffer, he got up, sank into the dantian, and shouted: "Where are the left and right?" ”

"Stomp, stomp!"

As soon as Chen Xu's voice fell, the soldiers who were on guard outside rushed in in full armor.

Seeing this, the officials were immediately shocked, and they didn't dare to be presumptuous again.

Chen Xu had a gloomy face and drank: "Your Majesty is here, how can you allow you to be presumptuous?" If anyone dares to act recklessly, they will be arrested and put in prison directly! ”

Although Han Rong was disgraced, he stiffened his neck and said: "Fan Chou, this guy openly beat the minister, he has no heaven, and he should be beheaded according to the law!" ”

"That's it, Fan Chou, this person, not killing is not enough to make the people angry!"

"This person was first a pawn of Dong Thief, and he aided and abused him; Then he openly led troops to attack Chang'an, kidnapped the Son of Heaven and the Minister, and the crime was extremely heinous, and he should be punished by the Nine Clans! ”

The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were full of righteous indignation and counted Fan Chou's crimes.

I have to say that Fan Chou has indeed done a lot of evil things before. The officials are all sharp people, and they expose Fan Chou's evil deeds one by one, sometimes even exaggerating, which makes Fan Chou's heart tremble.

Seeing that everyone kept accusing Fan Chou, Taiwei Yang Biao suddenly said loudly: "Everyone, be quiet first!" ”

Yang Biao's prestige in the court was undoubted, and when the officials heard his words, they immediately stopped saying anything, and only focused on Yang Biao.

"Ahem!"

After clearing his throat, Yang Biao pondered for a while, and then came to Emperor Xian's side and said: "Fan Chou's crime, Xinzhu is difficult to write, and please ask Your Majesty to issue an edict to punish this person!" ”

The hundred officials also shouted in unison: "Please also ask Your Majesty to punish this person!" ”

When Liu Xie heard this, he was a little moved.

Although Fan Chou is not as cruel as Li Dao and Guo Yan, he was also a godless man in the past and bullied hundreds of officials. It would be a great pleasure to take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of it.

However, without military power in his hands, Liu Xie naturally knew his embarrassing position now. He set his eyes on Chen Xu, revealing an inquiring look.

Chen Xu lowered his head slightly, pretending not to see the gaze of the Son of Heaven, just standing in place and not saying a word.

Although at this time, the hundred officials in the DPRK and the central government seemed to want to punish Fan Chou, in fact, they were not testing Chen Xu's attitude.

After the rebellion of Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, and Guo Yan, the officials were already very jealous of the princes. What's more, Chen Xu is still a Yellow Turban thief.

If Chen Xu retreats today and punishes Fan Chou, they will gain an inch and slowly seize the power in Chen Xu's hands. If Chen Xu shielded Fan Chou, I am afraid that in the hearts of these people, they will think that Chen Xu is Dong Zhuo and others.

After all, the hundred officials of the DPRK and China have always hoped that Cao Cao would be able to enter the customs and escort, not Chen Xu.

Looking at Cao Cao's actions, he now deserves the title of 'loyal minister of the Han Dynasty'.

However, Cao Cao is now in the easternmost part of the Han Dynasty, far from Guanzhong, and some of them are beyond the reach of the whip.

Chen Xu's bowing head was silent, but it made Liu Xie feel a little at a loss, and he didn't know whether he should punish Fan Chou. After all, he didn't want to fall out with Chen Xu because Fan Chou was alone.

"Huh!"

Suddenly, there was a chuckle. Everyone looked up, only to find that the person who spoke up was Li Ru, who had been staying in the corner.

Li Ru got up, tidied up his clothes, and walked in front of the Son of Heaven.

After the salute, Li Ruyin said predictably: "Your Majesty, this time the champion Hou was able to enter the customs to kill Li Dao and Guo Yan, and the two generals Fan Chou and Zhang Ji contributed a lot. ”

"If it weren't for the two generals who protected Your Majesty and fled all the way to Fenglingdu, I'm afraid Your Majesty would still be in the hands of Li Dao and Guo Yan now."

"Since ancient times, there has been no higher merit than rescuing the driver. Although General Fan Chou has done wrong things in the past, this rescue can completely clear the past crimes. ”

Fan Chou saw Li Ru come forward and speak for himself, and his heart was suddenly moved. To be honest, he was also scared at first, and Chen Xu convicted him in order to appease the anger of the hundred officials.

However, Li Ru, as Chen Xu's adviser, has actually opened his mouth to defend himself, which also represents Chen Xu's attitude. It was only at this time that Fan Chou was completely relieved.

When Han Rong saw Li Ru speak, he was immediately furious, he pointed at Li Ru's nose and scolded loudly: "The traitor dove killed the first emperor, the crime cannot be punished!" Sin is not punishable! ”

After finishing speaking, he was about to step forward and beat Li Ru.

For the crimes committed by Li Ru under Dong Zhuo's account, all the officials in the court and China knew about it.

However, in the past, Dong Zhuo trusted Li Ru very much, and Li Ru could be said to be covering the sky with one hand in the court, how could the hundred officials dare to offend him?

Although Li Ru is now working under Chen Xu's account, he may not necessarily win Chen Xu's trust. Therefore, Han Rong dared to accuse Li Ru like this.

Li Ru even dared to kill the abolished emperor Liu Wei, which shows that he is a bold man. When he saw that Han Rong wanted to step forward and hit him, he immediately sneered and kicked him to the ground.

Han Rong is old, and he was beaten by Fan Chou just now, how can he be the opponent of the young and strong Li Ru.

was kicked to the ground, Han Rong suddenly howled and cried: "The Han is unlucky, the dynasty is sluggish, and all kinds of traitors wantonly beat the minister, where is the face of the Han?" ”

After speaking, Han Rong cried bitterly.

Li Ru was condescending, and said with a disdainful face: "Your Majesty has already issued an edict to pardon my past crimes, and now you are talking about the past, are you questioning Your Majesty's decision?" ”

Han Rong was beaten in public twice today, and he already felt that he had lost face. In an age where fame is more important than life, this insult is simply unbearable.

He stood up, wiped a handful of tears, and said sharply: "Although so-and-so is old, he has a loyal and patriotic heart. I thought that Chen Wenzhao came thousands of miles to rescue him, but he was a loyal minister. ”

"Looking at it today, there are some traitors and villains under its tent! Although I am greedy for life and afraid of death, I also know the truth of 'sacrificing life for righteousness'. ”

"If I can use my death to make the general of Zhengbei reduce the traitors and help the Han family wholeheartedly, why should I die?"

After finishing speaking, Han Rong rushed directly to the side and died after touching the pillar.

Han Rong's move was too sudden, and before everyone could react, Han Rong's brain had already burst.

Seeing this, Zhao Yun hurriedly went over, put his finger in front of Han Rong's nose, and then shook his head gently at Chen Xu.

Han Rong's death made the hall suddenly quiet. The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty all had sad and angry faces, and they had relatives in their hearts, and even Liu Xie, the son of heaven, was pale.

Chen Xu didn't expect that Han Rong would be so strong, and he would commit suicide when he said he would commit suicide, leaving no room at all.

At this time, Chen Xu admired Han Rong a little in his heart. Although from the beginning, this person kept asking Chen Xu for trouble, but if you think about it carefully, why is he not dedicated to the Han family?

The Han Dynasty has experienced the rebellion of Dong Zhuo, Li Dao, and Guo Yan, and if Chen Xu follows those three again, then the dignity of the Han Dynasty will also be trampled on.

If this is the case, there is really no possibility of revitalization of the Han family.

Han Rong, as a servant of the dynasty, is he a scheming person? His series of actions just now seemed a little vexatious, but they were also a kind of temptation.

It's just that his temptation is too intense.

Han Rong is determined to die, and he is completely persecuting Chen Xu. At this time, Chen Xu either punished Fan Chou and Li Ru to calm the anger of the public; or shield the two and expose their wolf ambitions.

After all, on the first day of the meeting between the Manchu Dynasty and the Son of Heaven, he was forced to die as a servant. If you don't give an explanation, then everyone can see that Chen Xu is completely like Dong Zhuo, who has no heaven and no minister.

However, if Fan Chou and Li Ru are disposed of, although they can appease the Son of Heaven and hundreds of officials, it will make Chen Xu's martial arts feel cold.

In this way, the hundred officials can continue to co-opt, suppress, and divide the forces in Chen Xu's hands.

Thinking of this, Chen Xu took a deep breath and secretly thought in his heart: "It seems that Han Rong is trying to force me to make a choice!" ”

There was an inexplicable light in his eyes, and it was not until now that Chen Xu knew why Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao always gave people a feeling of flying and domineering after they got the Son of Heaven.

They did not mean to do so. It's just that sometimes it's just a last resort.

Just like Chen Xu now, he can't retreat, if he retreats, he will be an abyss, and he will never be reborn. The first battle between Baiguan and Chen Xu suddenly broke out.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Chen Xu took a deep breath, looked at Fan Chou and Li Ru and said, "Fan Chou, Li Ru, are you guilty?" ”

Chen Xu's words shocked all the civil and military forces in the state. As for the Son of Heaven and the Manchu Dynasty, there was a hint of expectation on their grief-stricken faces.

Fan Chou looked frightened, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said, "The last general is guilty!" ”

Although he is the right general of the Han Dynasty, his official position is still above Chen Xu. But Fan Chou also knows that his life and death are under Chen Xu's control.

Therefore, he did not dare to suppress Chen Xu with his official position.

Seeing Fan Choucheng's frightened look, Chen Xu once again set his eyes on Li Ru.

Li Ru raised his head, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Han Rong scolds, moves first, and commits suicide later, what is Confucianism's crime?" ”

But he didn't want to, Li Ru's words immediately angered the Manchu ministers, and they scolded one after another: "Traitor, forcing the servant to death, and still don't know the crime?" ”

Chen Xu also had a gloomy face and said: "The death of the servant has nothing to do with you, how can you be innocent?" ”
