Chapter 201: Settle accounts after the fall

At dusk, in the city of Xudu, there was a bloody atmosphere.

Many soldiers on the streets are cleaning up the battlefield, cleaning up the captured supplies, and mending the rebels who are not yet dead.

At this time, on top of the court hall of this Xu capital, a court meeting was also held for the first time.

On the dragon chair, Liu Xie, the Son of Heaven, looked at the only young man wearing a military uniform among the hundreds of officials below, and the expression on his face was a little complicated.

"Your Majesty! This is the person who needs to be rewarded for his outstanding achievements in the battle to defend Xudu. ”

After a respectful shout, Cao Ang submitted the list that had been sorted out before, and after it was transferred by the eunuch to Liu Xie, the son of heaven, Liu Xie also flipped through it.

On this list of people who need to be rewarded, all of them are generals surnamed Cao and Xiahou, and after Liu Xie read it, he immediately felt like a dumb person eating Coptis chinensis, and he couldn't say anything about his suffering.

This Cao family's father and son are nepotistic, and they are so blatant!

But despite this, Liu Xie didn't dare to resist, so he could only nod in the end and reward all these people who needed to be rewarded.

Xiahou De Xiahou Shang was originally just two unknown generals, but at this time, because he followed Cao Ang's side to resist the siege of the army, he was actually given the official position of captain.

Naturally, these two people would not thank Liu Xie, the son of heaven who canonized them, just because they knew that they could have such a canonization, all of which was due to Cao Ang's request for a reward from the Son of Heaven for them.

After Liu Xie rewarded all the people who should be rewarded in front of hundreds of officials, the next thing was the person who should be punished.

I saw that Cao Ang continued to take out a list and continued to speak.

"Your Majesty, these are the list of officials who have been swaggering in the city and shaking the hearts of the defending troops when Liang Xing was attacking the city, and many meritorious generals have asked for orders to kill them!"

In one word, above the court, many officials were all in a daze, and they had already seen that this Cao Ang was planning to settle accounts after the autumn!

Although this Cao Cao is a wolf, he is extremely good at forbearance, and no matter what he does, he will find a complete reason.

In contrast, Cao Ang did not set up any archway, and directly asked Liu Xie to kill these courtiers on the grounds that the soldiers asked for orders.

Liu Xie's face was also quite ugly after hearing this, but he didn't dare to say anything at this time, but flipped through the list above.

After seeing this list, Liu Xie's heart was once again for a while, on this list, there were those courtiers who agreed with him to fall to Liang Xing after Liang Xing broke through the city at that time!

And not all the courtiers who agree with their fall to Liang Xing are among them, the vast majority of the list on this list are the courtiers of Dong Chengyi's party and finally his Liu Xie!

This Cao Ang's eradication of dissidents is so obvious!

"Cao Aiqing! These courtiers have always been in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the things they say are all the affairs of the court, and the words have not left the Prime Minister's Mansion, so they will not be punished, right? ”

"Once the precedent for punishing these courtiers is set today, won't anyone dare to say other opinions in the future when the government and the opposition are discussed?"

Although Liu Xie has been hollowed out, he is still the Son of Heaven after all, and even Cao Cao has to be respectful to him on the surface.

He wants to protect these courtiers!

After hearing Liu Xie's words, Cao Ang also smiled disdainfully in his heart, and then continued to speak.

"When discussing affairs in the court, it is natural to speak widely, but as a courtier, you should also have your own moral bottom line and comfort yourself. If the lives of the monarch's father and soldiers are not punished, I am afraid that it will cause the soldiers to mutiny! ”

As soon as he said that, Liu Xie's face immediately changed, although he knew that it was Cao Ang threatening him, he could only choose to compromise.

Looking at the above list, Liu Xie also punished them one by one, some people were punished with canes on the spot, some people punished them with money, and some people were reprimanded by name.

This kind of punishment is not very heavy, and Cao Ang also knows it, but he doesn't care about it at this time.

He is not a cruel and murderous person, if he really kills these courtiers, I am afraid that the princes of the world will criticize him.

At this time, these painless triggers were made to these courtiers precisely to remind those courtiers.

Even if they are loyal to the Son of Heaven, this Son of Heaven can't keep them!

After such a thing happens, it will definitely greatly limit the morale of Dong Chengyi's party, and more importantly, those neutral courtiers who are like grass on the wall will no longer dare to express their stance at will.

After such a matter was dealt with, Cao Ang proudly withdrew from the court and left, but although he left the court, he did not leave the palace.

After some tossing and turning, he came to the bedroom of Princess Liu Qin of Wannian.

At this time, Cao Ang's arrival did not cause the palace maid to intercept him, and it was obvious that Liu Qin had ordered in advance.

drove all the way in, and after coming directly to the door of the dormitory, Cao Ang strode in with a brief announcement.

Who would have thought that the two of them, who were still extremely jealous of each other the day before and wanted to get rid of each other, were also allied together at this time.

"Princess, it is not advisable to stay in this palace for a long time, I'm afraid you still have to find a reason to come out."

After the two met, Cao Ang did not hide anything, and directly expressed his opinion.

That Liu Qin had not been able to prevent Liu Xie's poisoning before with the blessing of the system, not to mention that she had given up the ability of the system now.

As long as Liu Xie wants to get rid of his sister, it will be easy in the palace!

But despite this, to this Cao Ang's surprise, Liu Qin shook his head.

"Cao Gongzi thinks about things like a eunuch, the status of this palace is noble, how can he easily leave the palace."

Seeing Liu Qin say this, Cao Ang's brows immediately furrowed, and he seemed to disagree.

"The princess must have been in this palace for a long time, and she already has a shelf, if you really want to leave the palace, just tell the Son of Heaven, and my son will take you out."

Not long after Cao Ang came to this chaotic era at the end of the Han Dynasty, his way of thinking was still like that of a later man, and he naturally disdained all dogma and orders.

As long as Liu Qin really wants to leave the palace, this is definitely not a difficult thing!

After hearing such words, Liu Qin shook his head.

"Cao Gongzi thinks about this matter too simply, do you know why the royal family makes the world fearful?"

As soon as he said that, Cao Ang was immediately stunned, and he didn't seem to understand what the other party meant.

"That's because the royal family has its own majesty! Once the royal family loses its majesty, the people of the world will be in turmoil, and it will be difficult to rule. ”

"If this princess rashly leaves the palace regardless of the royal law, what will the people of the world think?"
