Chapter 933 The Last Kindness
Handan false account?Liu Xie was slightly taken aback.

After Zhuge Liang went to Handan to take office, there was no news. Why did the scholar Sun Rui come here to report the false account registration?

Liu Xie suddenly thought of Wang Duan outside the camp.

This matter will not be related to Wang Duan, Zhuge Liang is inconvenient to deal with it, and Shi Sun Rui is not good at handling it, so I have to bring it to Xingzai?
"Get up and talk." Liu Xie waved his hand.

Sun Rui prostrated himself on the ground. "I dare say so. Jizhou is a large state in Hebei, which is related to seclusion and stability. Moreover, the late emperor and Emperor Xiaohuan both came from Jizhou, and your majesty's biological mother is also from Jizhou. Jizhou can also be regarded as your majesty's own state. Even if you can't be extra merciful, it is not appropriate to kill Too heavy."

Liu Xie frowned. "Are you forcing me to agree?"

"How dare I, I just ask Your Majesty to think twice."

"Mr. Shisun..." Jushou was panicked, and he didn't care about being impolite, so he hurriedly tore at the hem of Shisun Rui's clothes, and gave Shisun Rui a wink, telling him not to be too stubborn, which angered the emperor.

Shi Sunrui ignored him, and knelt down in front of the emperor, with his forehead on the ground, motionless.

Liu Xie snorted. "Are you really willing to give up such an easy job?"

"I am willing." Shi Sun Rui said without hesitation: "The minister did not go to Liangzhou from Gaiyuangu to fight for personal fame and gain. If the city of Ye was destroyed without attacking, and Shenpei and Tian Feng became ministers, tens of thousands of soldiers To avoid death, I am not only willing to give up the credit, even my life, I will not hesitate."

"This is not something you did alone."

"Yes, but I have also thought about it. Jia Xu is both civil and military. He is loyal to His Majesty, and he is more qualified than the minister to be a captain. As for others, there are many latecomers, and there are many people who are superior to the minister in terms of knowledge, tolerance, and ability. But Make your majesty believe it, what difference does it make if you are a lieutenant or not?"

Liu Xie raised his eyebrows lightly, but he was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, Shi Sun Rui looked away, no longer had any obsession with the position of Taiwei, and was willing to give up this opportunity for the sake of Yecheng.

Liu Xie thought about it, got up and came to Shi Sun Rui, and stretched out his hand to help him. "Master Sun Gong, Gong Yu, stand up and speak."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shi Sun Rui bowed again and got up.

Ju Shou also got up and stood beside Shi Sun Rui.

Liu Xie patted Sun Rui's hand and sighed. "Master Sun Gong, I conquered Jizhou for the purpose of killing people. Therefore, the trial and death of Tian Feng have never been in my consideration. But if Jizhou implements Dutian, the common people can farm for themselves and will not be bullied. If you can get taxes to support the officials and benefit the people, why bother to cause more harm? The imperial court can pardon Yuan Shao, but can't it judge and match Tian Feng?"

Sun Rui was relieved. "Your Majesty is holy."

Ju Shou also breathed a sigh of relief, but felt a little uneasy.

"But Shenpei and Tian Feng are ignorant of the current affairs, and guarding the city by themselves, so that the imperial court has no choice but to mobilize the army. Is it what a minister should do?" Liu Xie's face darkened. "If you don't punish me severely, I'm afraid that everyone will have grievances, so I will raise troops to occupy the city, and even take people as hostages to bargain with the court. Mr. Sun, what will you do at that time?"

Sun Rui had already prepared for it. "Your Majesty, Shen Pei and Tian Feng's crimes are unforgivable, just punish the first and not the rest."

Liu Xie let go of Shi Sun Rui's hand, walked back and forth in the tent for a few steps, then turned to look at Jushou.

"Gongyu, are the civil and military men in the city, heroes of Jizhou, or ignorant children?"

Jushou groaned secretly in his heart, bowed his head and remained silent.

"It doesn't look like a child." Liu Xie sneered: "In that case, don't they know that Tian Feng is going against the law? Why don't they go all out to fight against him? Instead, they respond everywhere and become enemies of the court? I heard that some people are Traveling thousands of miles, I brought my family with me, prepared my own food, and rushed to Yecheng."

He walked back to Shi Sun Rui. "Master Sun Gong, are these people... also innocent?"

Shi Sunrui bowed and said: "They are indeed guilty, but they are not guilty of death. I think that they can confiscate their homes and exile them in remote areas, so that they can make meritorious deeds and reflect on their mistakes."

Liu Xie blinked and looked at Jushou. "What do you think?"

Jushou was bitter in his heart, but he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"If so, it's a blessing."

This punishment is not light, but Shi Sun Rui has already agreed, and it is useless if he does not agree.

If this opportunity is missed, the only people waiting for Yecheng are the destruction of the city and the destruction of jade and stone. Those in the city have no chance to surrender.

Although the punishment of exile in remote areas is also very heavy, it is better than direct clan punishment.

Liu Xie nodded. "Then you just reply to Shen Pei, Tian Feng, the chief evil clan, and others to exile overseas. Don't they want to change the dynasty and seal the country? The overseas world is vast and there is a lot to do."

Ju Shou was shocked, and Shi Sun Rui also raised his head in surprise.

They just said that they were exiled to remote areas, how did the emperor directly become exiled overseas?
Before they could speak, Liu Xie swept his eyes. "Is there a problem?" He chuckled. "This is my last mercy."

Although Liu Xie was laughing, and the laughter was not loud, Shi Sun Rui's heart tightened when he heard it.

He could hear that the emperor was not joking, this was indeed the emperor's bottom line.

He weighed it quickly, bowed and said: "I think it is very good. The people of Jizhou are martial arts and have a strong temperament. It is just to open up the territory for the great Han and make contributions."

Liu Xie rolled his eyes and looked at Jushou.

Although Jushou couldn't bear it, he had no choice but to bow down and accept the order, echoing Sun Rui's opinion.

"Then it's settled." Liu Xie pinched his fingers and made up his mind. "There is still half a month left for the autumn harvest, plus the food from the counties will be delivered to the camp, it will probably take another half a month. Within a month, they can take their time to think about it. After a month, the Northern Army should launch an attack, don't be caught Others take the lead."

"Wei." Shi Sun Rui took the order loudly.

Ju Shou's mood is a bit complicated.

The emperor gave Shenpei and Tian Feng a month to think about it, which shows that he has enough confidence to break through Yecheng, and he doesn't care whether Shenpei and Tian Feng are willing to surrender.But that's fine too, the judge is an upright person, if he is suddenly asked to surrender, he may not accept it.Give him a month to think, maybe he can figure it out.

"There is one more thing I want to ask you for advice." Liu Xie waved his hand, took out a volume of documents from his desk, and handed it to Shi Sun Rui. "This is the preface to the "Biographies of Danggu" written by Lantai. I am a little puzzled, and I hope you can explain it to me."

Liu Xie's thinking was too jumpy, and Shi Sunrui and Jushou couldn't keep up for a while, but they couldn't refuse, so they had to take it.

Shi Sunrui said, "What is your Majesty's puzzlement?"

"The preface says that the party started the dispute between Zhou Fu and Fang Zhi in Qinghe. Zhou Fu was just a minister, while Fang Zhi was Henan Yin. The official positions of the two were far apart. Why were they enemies? That's all. It's just Qinghe's northern and southern parties, how could it cause chaos in the world? Isn't the backbone of the party members from Ruying? How come the root is from Jizhou?"

Liu Xie suddenly laughed. "I didn't read the preface, but I really didn't expect that the origin of this party matter was in Jizhou. Speaking of which, Jizhou is indeed a big state in the world, and even Qinghe's township party infighting can cause such a big disturbance."

Ju Shou was very embarrassed, and explained: "Your Majesty, this is not a struggle within the Qinghe Township Party, but a distinction between pure and turbid."

Liu Xie asked back: "Who is pure and who is turbid? Zhou Fu is the emperor's teacher, and he is promoted to be a minister, so it is turbid? Fang Zhi has any commendable traces of governance, dare to call the rules of the world?"

Ju Shou frowned, not knowing how to answer for a while.

Shi Sunrui finished reading the preface, put it lightly on the case, and said lightly: "Your Majesty is right. It is presumptuous to use the words voicing and voicing to distinguish between the enemy and us. The matter of the party's imprisonment has a great impact and almost shakes the foundation of the country. You should reflect on it carefully. , as a lesson for future generations."
