Chapter 346: Borrowing the Son of Heaven to Control Daxian
When the night came, hundreds of men, women, young and old were imprisoned in the prison of Yuanshi County. The man bowed his head and was speechless, and the woman hugged the child and cried. An atmosphere of despair spread. All of these people were relatives and families of Guan Ning and Bing Yuan. Yuan Xi's order was to kill the three clans.
Although Zhang Jun admires Yilong's loyalty and friendship, no matter how extraordinary the three of them are, the king is supreme in the heart of the Military Control Commission. Anyone who dares to hinder the royal power, no matter how outstanding it is, will be erased. Therefore, Zhang Jun still arrests all of them according to the original plan and shows no mercy.
At this time, at the innermost part of the county prison, a man wearing Dayan official uniform was kneeling outside the door of the prison cell, looking at Hua Xin, Guan Ning and Bing Yuan who were locked in the inside and were transported to Dali Temple in Yecheng for trial tomorrow, with tears and helplessness on his face.
He was really Chen Ming, the prefect of Zhongshan County, and was also one of Yuan Xi's secret ministers. Tian Feng was a former subordinate, and he was similar to a secretary. He was upright and honest in his official position. He was also promoted to the prefect of Zhongshan County.
"Teacher, the students are incompetent!" Chen Ming blamed himself. Although he was also the prefect and the lord of the land, Yuan Xi personally issued an order that even Tian Feng would have to give out the gold medal of exemption from death to stop him. However, although Tian Feng admired the three, it was impossible for him to offend the king for them. What's more, Guan Ning and others were indeed arrogant and incited the people and attempted to subvert the Da Yan regime. As for betraying private release, he was even more afraid. Yuan Xi's division of civil and military rule made him, as a prefect, unable to mobilize a single army except the yamen runners. Even if he was released, he would not be able to escape. What's more, he was a minister of Da Yan. He had a dilemma of loyalty and filial piety. Loyalty was the first and filial piety was the last. Teachers and the others were loyal to the Han Dynasty, and he also wanted to be loyal to the Da Yan.
"You don't have to learn etiquette, you don't have to do this. Your teacher knows you very well. Be a good prefect. Remember the words of your teacher. The Yellow Turban Rebellion, the princes' melee, the people are displaced and the day is in danger. You must treat the people well and be fair and clear. Even if you die, you will be relieved." Hua Xin in the prison cell said with a calm smile.
"Teacher, the student has already written to the left prime minister, he will definitely let the king open the Internet," Chen Ming said hurriedly.
"Haha, it's okay. As long as the three of us friends are together, it doesn't matter whether we live or die. Go back!" Hua Xin looked at Guan Ning and Bing Yuan next to him, and persuaded happily.
"Teacher, students will give you to you tomorrow," Chen Ming cried.
"No, as a minister of Dayan, what is it that you give us three ministers to the great man? We must fulfill our responsibilities and you must do your own duties," Hua Xin said seriously immediately.
"Yes, teacher" Chen Ming kowtowed in pain.
The next day, the Military Control Commission escorted Hua Xin, Guan Ning, Bing Yuan, and many relatives and families toward Yecheng. Many people and students from Yuanshi County came out to see him off, some were reluctant, some were regretful, some were angry, and some were crying bitterly. But no matter what it was, no one dared to come out to stop him, because they were already the people of Da Yan, and the royal power was supreme. This has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people since ancient times and irresistible. Since ancient times, many loyal ministers and generals have been killed. Although the people are angry, they rarely block the prison cart. This is exactly the case.
An emperor is the sky, no matter how high it is, it is not as high as the sky.
.....
Three days later, in the palace of Yecheng, Yuan Xi sat at the desk, rubbing his eyebrows slightly. Tian Feng, Li Ru, Han Yan, Xun Kan, Xu Shu, Pang Tong, Sima Yi, and Zhang Nan were all here.
"King, everyone has been suppressed to the prison in Yecheng. The Dali Temple will be officially sentenced tomorrow," Tian Feng said.
Yuan Xi's face froze and said, "Then let's judge!"
"King, Guan Ning, Bing Yuan, forget it, but Mr. Hua Xin is from Dali, Ming Dynasty and has never said anything about rebellion. Many of his students are in Dayan. If even he is killed, there will definitely be someone who will not accept it!" Xun Kan hurriedly advised.
Yuan Xi immediately stood up and said angrily: "It's not that Gu wanted to kill him, Gu even appointed him as a Grand Secretary. He organized the recruitment of talents in the four prefectures of Juxian Pavilion this time. He wanted to get involved. What can I do?"
Hua Xin's sudden joining made him so angry that he would not kill him, nor would he not kill him.
"The king is very concerned. It is true that they are too much this time, but on the other hand, they also show their loyalty and friendship between the three. The advantages and disadvantages of King Hua, cutting off mats and breaking diplomatic relations, and quitting drinking and studying hard. The three are not only great scholars, but also role models and role models for a generation of students. As long as they are willing to correct, they can still be lighter," Tian Feng said hurriedly.
Yuan Xi sneered, "If they are willing, Gu doesn't have to do this. Gu admires talented and talented people the most. No matter how much they give, they are willing to give it, but they just don't want to! If Gu publicly scolds Gu, if Gu doesn't shock him, what's Wang Wei?"
"The king is wise, if he is bound by Hua Xin, then how will the king command Yan State and make the people respect him?" Zhang Nan supported.
Tian Feng and Xun Kan frowned immediately. They also knew how Yuan Xi should deal with it if they were not killed and released directly. This problem was even more serious.
At this time, Pang Tong looked around and suddenly smiled and stood out, "King, the killing must be executed. This order must be issued and taken to the execution ground to inform the world that the king's majesty cannot be violated, but the king is still a king after all. After all, the Yan State is still a vassal state of the Han Dynasty, and there is still the Han emperor above the king. If the emperor issues an edict, block the execution of the execution a moment before the execution, and severely rebuke the three people, disrespect the king's orders, and at the same time, the three people must fight for the prosperity of the Yan Dynasty. After the emperor gives an order, the emperor is helpless to release the three people, make meritorious service and promulgate the world. This will not only preserve the majesty of the king, but also turn those rumors into nothingness, because the king still respects the emperor!"
"Shi Yuan said it well. Aren't they loyal to the Han Dynasty? Didn't they regard themselves as Han officials? Then it depends on whether they dare to violate the imperial edict of the Han emperor." After hearing this, Han Yan immediately praised.
"In addition, let the three of them be responsible for the recruitment of Juxian. With their fame, the recruitment of Juxian in the four governments will be enough to elevate Juxian in this time to a sensation," Xu Shu continued to add.
"What Vice Court Xu said is very true. In this way, they can be controlled so that they cannot speak privately within the territory of Yan at will, and shake the hearts of the people," Sima Yi also supported.
Yuan Xi's eyes moved slightly and said, "Will Cao Cao be willing?"
"Don't worry, as long as you send orders Gao Lan, the two generals of Zhang Liao will move slightly to the Central Plains. Cao Cao will have to give this imperial edict if he doesn't give it, because he needs time now, not to mention that he loves talents and will not be stingy. At most, he feels wronged. Cao Cao uses the emperor to command the princes, and the king uses the emperor to control the great sages." Li Ru saw that Yuan Xi was moved and immediately said with a smile.
Yuan Xi sat down again, and after a while of silence, he said, "I will definitely kill them, but if the emperor really feels pity, it is not easy to disobey me. You can do it! Anyway, just sign the letter."
Hearing this, the ministers didn't know where they were. Yuan Xi had already let go, but he couldn't say that, so he hurriedly said, "The king is wise and unparalleled."
Yuan Xi coughed, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but tilt.
