Chapter 37 Xun Yu VS Mao Jie
Pull the timeline back in front of you.
Liu Xie, now he has been completely beaten up.
Under the vocal narrative of Queen Guo's passion, she successfully portrayed herself as a proud and arrogant person. Because she was beaten by the queen, she secretly left the palace in the middle of the night to cry to her brother, and she was a simple-minded and not very sensible girl.
Xiahou Wei... Anyway, in her story, Xiahou Wei's image is no longer visible, it's a pool of stinky dog shit.
During the chaos, Xun Yu finally arrived in a hurry. He was the Shangshu Ling, so he had to arrive for such a big thing. Liu Xie couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Xun Yu coming.
Before he knew it, Xun Yu, the Shangshu Ling, who was both loyal to the Han Dynasty and Cao Cao, had become Liu Xie's backbone.
"Let me think, what should I do today?"
After listening to the causes and consequences, Xun Yu glanced at Xiahou Qing coldly.
He was so disappointed with his son-in-law.
He didn't believe that his son-in-law would be so stupid that he would tease the nobles in the palace and kill Zao Zhi, but he would have fallen to such a state of being covered in shit and mud, which shows how stupid he is.
"I think that since this matter has been caused by Xiahou, it is better to throw him into the Tingwei Mansion prison first. After the detailed investigation of the whole story is made, let's make plans."
Liu Xie nodded and was about to do what Xun Yu said, but suddenly he heard a loud shout from behind: "Slow!"
After seeing again, a person I didn't know had already emerged from the crowd.
Seeing this, Xun Yu sighed and bowed slightly, "Xiaoxian, you are here too."
The person who came was Mao Jie, the head of the East Cao of Sikong Mansion. Well, it should be called Taifu Mansion now. The official position is not big, and it is about 400 stones, which is even worse than ordinary county magistrates. Therefore, he naturally does not attend court on weekdays, so Liu Xie naturally would not know him.
However, Xun Yu knew that during the Eastern Han Dynasty, the real power and order of officials had no direct relationship with the rank of order. Strictly speaking, Xun Yu's Shangshu Ling was still affiliated with Kong Rong's young mansion. Xun Yu gave Kong Rong a tribute. Do Kong Rong dare to accept it?
In the early days of Jian'an, people from too good backgrounds generally did not go directly to Sikong Mansion to work, but instead became a serious official in the Han Dynasty, and then took part-time jobs to participate in Cao Cao's private affairs with the title of participating in Sikong Mansion. Sikong Mansion and the court were two lines that were intersecting and parallel.
But for those so-called people with low backgrounds, sometimes Cao Cao was too lazy to do this, so he let them all be officials of the Sikong Mansion directly, not officials of the Han Dynasty. The main steward of many affairs in the Sikong Mansion was Mao Jie.
Simply put, Mao Jie's Dong Cao official was a small Shangshu Ling for Cao Cao himself, which was a constraint on Xun Yu to a certain extent. When Cao Cao was strong, he could even underestimate Xun Yu.
Furthermore, Cheng Yu was not in Xudu because he needed to stay in Yanzhou. Mao Jie was actually the head of the Yanzhou group under Cao Cao in Xudu City. It was so difficult for Yanzhou people to accompany Cao Cao through life and death. Finally, Cao Cao was rich now, but the fruit of victory was picked by Yingchuan people. It was a damn thing that he had a good relationship with Xun Yu.
The matter involved the Emperor's Guard, and Cao Cao was sensible and did not interfere. Mao Jie naturally represented Cao Cao to a certain extent.
Therefore, in the face of Mao Jie's destruction, Xun Yu could only politely give him a move first and hear what he had to say.
Mao Jie also clasped his fists at Xun Yu and said, "Lingjun, Xiahou Wei is your son-in-law. Isn't you afraid that the daughter will become a widow when I sent him so decisively?"
"If she really becomes a widow, let her remarry." Xun Yu's expression remained unchanged, as if he wanted Xiahou to die quickly so that his daughter could remarry quickly.
"I'm going to kill my relatives for justice. It's just that today's matter is a bit weird in my opinion. It's better to be cautious. At least, you can't just listen to someone's words."
"Is Xiaoxian accusing noble people of lying and deliberately wrongly accusing Xiahou Wei?"
"Haha, this matter is very important, so it's better to ask clearly. At least, let Xiahou Yan defend himself, where is Xiahou Yan?"
At this time, Xiahou Wei had already been tied up by Yu Linwei and had smelly socks stuffed into his mouth. Seeing Mao Jie stand up at this time, Yu Linwei had to pull out the smelly socks from his mouth and let him speak.
"I'm wronged, I'm wronged! Lord Mao saves me!"
Mao Jie said lightly: "Don't panic, in front of the emperor and Lingjun, you can explain the whole story clearly."
Xiahou Wei was still shocked and gasped heavily, saying, "They, the brother and sister together cheated me. Zao Zhi was already dead when I entered their military account. It was Zao Zhi they killed! Guo Guiren also framed me, and I didn't molest her at all!"
Xun Yu shouted sternly: "Then what are you going to do when you break into someone's camp? Guo Fu is a great Guanglu doctor. Why do you break into someone's military account? Why do you appear in the forbidden area of the Guard tonight!"
"I... I just feel bad, I just feel bad, I come to find a fellow villager to have some wine. Really, I happened to encounter Guo Fu and the Yingchuan people bullying people. It was obvious that they were the first to take charge, so why did they just scold us Hu Benwei and make things difficult for us Qiao County people everywhere? I couldn't see it, so I went to argue with him."
"Guo Fu, as a Guanglu Doctor, has the authority to help Guanglu Xunqing manage Suwei. How he wants to manage it is his business. Why do you go to argue with him? Is your father Xiahou Dun?! Do you know that you have to break into the tent of the commander of the imperial guards? With this alone, Doctor Guo can engage in your military law, and take action first and then report!"
"I……"
Xun Yu refused to give in and continued, "I'll ask you, did you know that the noble man was in the account before you broke into the big tent?"
"I...I don't know."
"Don't you know? At that time, no one in the army knew that the noble man was coming. This matter was clearly the cause of the conflict between the two guards. You didn't even know that the noble man was coming. Then you rushed in and talked about what reason and what was the reason for it?"
"I...I know."
"I know, you dare to break into a camp with a noble man?! How can you convince people if you don't have bad intentions?!" Xun Yu said something afterwards and didn't say it.
If you are so stupid, you won’t cheat anyone you don’t cheat?
After saying that, Xun Yu hugged Mao Jie again: "Xiaoxian, I already know the matter very clearly."
"Do you know? I think Xiahou Shi's testimony is quite credible. I dare to ask Guo Guiren, you said Xiahou Shi was molesting your intentions. How did he molesting you? If he really molested you, how did you break free? Could it be that Xiahou Shi's general Huzi is not your opponent of a woman? Oh, by the way, you said that Brother Ling saved you."
He said this and looked at Guo Fu again: "I think the Guanglu doctor is gentle and kind, but he doesn't look like a person with such courage."
Xiahou Wei also shouted at this time: "Yes, yes, that's it. If I really want to be ill-intentioned, I will let them turn over with one hand!"
"Another talk about Zao Zhi's death, I think he was clearly stabbed into the back of his neck and his throat was stabbed out by a short sword. Ling Jun, we have all been on the battlefield to kill people. If Xiahou Wei was really angry, how could he kill people in such a posture? Guo Guiren, please explain, where Zao Zhi was standing at that time, and where Xiahou Wei stood at, and how did he kill Zao Zhi?"
When Guo Meiren heard this, her face turned dark, and then suddenly hid in Liu Xie's arms and cried loudly: "Your Majesty~, look at him~, he is cruel to me~~"
