Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 613 The officials invite Yang Xiu to die

Seeing that the charcoal basin looked familiar, Yang Xiu took a closer look and saw that it was in his tent. Why did Xu Chu bring it over? Could it be that he found some clues?
Absolutely impossible. It was cleaned up very well in the morning. As long as I am calm enough, I will be fine. Yang Xiu's eyes are firm and fearless.

"Huh? Zhongkang, what do you mean?" Cao Cao asked suspiciously.

Xu Chu clasped his fists: "Reporting to the king, the final general will search according to the wishes of General Zhang and Master Yang. After asking the patrolling guards around, it turns out that Master Yang burned the letter."

"Your Majesty must have been framed by a traitor, please believe me." Yang Xiu argued anxiously.

"Which battalion of guards is it?" Cao Cao frowned.

Xu Chu glanced at Cao Xiu, bowed his head and whispered, "Leopard Camp."

Yang Xiu, an ordinary guard, was not afraid, but Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was Cao Cao's confidant, and things suddenly became difficult. Yang Xiu's eyes widened, and he said that I was doing things for you, but in the end he wanted to betray me?He quickly used his brain to think of countermeasures, but in the end he still chose to be stubborn.

"As the saying goes, 'Catch thieves and take stolen goods, catch traitors and take doubles', General Wen Lie, what kind of hatred do your people have against me? How dare you frame me as a king? If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I'm afraid this matter will not be good." Yang Xiu first set the fire on Cao Xiu.

Cao Xiu was also very helpless. He left in a hurry and forgot to tell the guards of the Leopard Camp. He didn't know how the reckless Xu Chu could get out of his words. Seeing Yang Xiu's aggressiveness, he could only bite the bullet and answer: "Maybe it's a misunderstanding? Why don't I do it myself?" Ask again?"

Just as Cao Xiu was about to leave, he heard a bang. Cao Cao slapped the table with one hand, and he shouted sharply: "What else do you need to ask? Zhongkang is investigating with my token. The guards of the Leopard Camp dare not tell the truth." ?”

"Uh, I'll save you at the end." Cao Xiu retreated back to his original position in desperation.

At this time, Cao Cao stared straight at Yang Xiu, with a murderous look in his insidiousness, "Tell me, why did you burn Gu's letter?"

"I didn't." Yang Xiu replied subconsciously.

"Boran, privately stealing military aircraft is like treason. You are familiar with the laws of the military. What crime should you punish?" Cao Cao didn't bother with Yang Xiu's answer, but directly asked Zhao Yan to convict him.

In the eyes of Cao Cao, Yang Xiu is already dead, because the secrets in the book have been leaked, "Brother forced Cao Zhi to compose poems", "Cao Pi abolished the emperor and usurped Yan Liu", the two prophecies are closely related to Cao Zhi, if Yang Xiu unites those aristocratic families Cao Pi may not be able to successfully succeed the king of Wei in the fight for the throne among the great clans.

The Hongnong Yang family was a prominent family in the Han Dynasty. After Cao Cao pacified the north and eliminated Yuan Shao, the declining gentry gathered behind them and joined forces with them to fight against the Henan gentry, and sided with Cao Zhi in the battle for the reserve.

Cao Zhi's articles are world-renowned and his talents are open. He has been deeply loved by Cao Cao since he was a child, but his political cultivation is far behind Cao Pi.

Cao Cao was worried that if he was chosen to inherit, he would be easily ostracized by the gentry headed by the Yang family. Therefore, for the sake of Wei Guo's continuous succession, Cao Cao finally chose the prudent Cao Pi. In this way, suppressing the Hongnong Yang family was to cut off the disaster for Cao Pi's succession.

The existence of Yang Xiu is a threat. Removing him will not only make Cao Pi more stable, but also prevent brotherhood. So when such a good opportunity arises, Cao Cao naturally has to make use of it.

Seeing Cao Cao's serious face, Zhao Yan knew that the matter might become serious, and he replied hesitantly: "According to the law, De Zu may not be punished. Maybe there are difficulties."

"Difficulties? So you don't have to obey the law?" Cao Cao sneered.

Cao Ren's eyes widened and he was puzzled. What is the reason for this time?Seeing that Cao Cao had already shown his killing intent, he said before Yang Xiu could defend himself, "Your Majesty, I will report my guilt."

Cao Cao was shocked and said, "Zixiao? What's the matter with you?"

"Your Majesty has been depressed for the past two days, resulting in limited command on the battlefield. I was worried that you would be affected by the letter, so I asked Dezu to persuade you. I didn't expect him to be so extreme." Cao Ren bowed his head and pleaded guilty.

"Huh?" Cao Cao frowned.

"Your Majesty, General Zixiao has worked hard, please don't punish the enemy now, everyone suspects that the letter is 'unclean', that's why"

Cao Xiu didn't finish his words of support, and Cao Cao directly grabbed the handle, and the anger on his face didn't weaken in the slightest: "Everyone? Who else?"

Sima Yi secretly scolded Cao Xiu as an idiot, how could you sell everyone like this? He dared to stand up and explain: "The day before yesterday, the king broke up the tent. We were worried, so we waited outside the tent. Burn it down, my colleagues in the tent were all there at the time, General Xu should have seen it.”

"Zhongkang?"

"The last general can indeed testify. They discussed at the door and said that the letter was 'filth'. Master Yang said that you are full of yang and will not be affected."

Sima Yi was quick-witted and decisive, he quickly changed his concept, and directly prevaricated the faction, so he would give up on himself, and Yang Xiu was dumbfounded.

"Yang Xiu, what do you have to say?" Cao Cao's tone became more serious.

"Your Majesty. Actually, I didn't watch it." Yang Xiu had just uttered his words, and he wanted to slap his own mouth. When he was flustered, it was as if he was not calling himself. How could Cao Cao keep himself.

"Guling the army depends on strict laws and regulations. Dezu has committed a serious crime now, even if he is alone, he will not be able to protect you. What do you think?" Cao Cao threw the multiple-choice question to the crowd again, and he wanted to see if Yang Xiu was in the same party.

At this time, no one in the tent said a word, Yang Xiu saw the behavior of these white-eyed wolves, and suddenly laughed wildly: "Hahaha, Yang Xiu, Yang Xiu, what a failure you are in life."

"Your Majesty, although Yang Dezu's crime is unforgivable, it was only his own fault." Sima Yi cupped his hands to remind him.

Sima Yi said nonsense on the surface, because the Hongnong Yang family has a profound background, and it is not so easy to uproot it. What he said was in favor of Cao Cao's execution of his political enemy Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu recalled the mention of Sima Yi in the prophecy, and sneered: "Sima Zhongda, you are good, you are very good hahaha."

Sima Yi was sweating profusely, I'm not bad, do I need you to remind me?Isn't this guy trying to drag me into the water?

"Master Yang is out of his mind, and has started talking nonsense, look, my lord," Cao Xiu cupped his fists to remind.

"Cao Xiu? And you. Hahaha." Yang Xiu continued to laugh.

"Enough is enough, drag it down for me immediately, and execute according to the law." From Yang Xiu's sneer, Cao Cao confirmed that the other party had read the prophecy, and in order to prevent him from continuing to speak nonsense, Cao Cao took the initiative to stop him.

After saying that, Xu Chu called two tiger guards to support Yang Xiu.

Yang Xiu struggled twice, unable to escape at all. He looked at Cao Cao with grief and indignation on his face: "Please be kind to Marquis Linzi, even if Yang Xiu dies, he will have no hatred."

"I have my own calculations, why don't you go out?" Cao Cao's eyes were cold.

"Wei." Xu Chu tugged Yang Xiu lightly, and pushed Yang Xiu out of the tent staggeringly.

Yang Xiu knew that he was going to die, so he overcame his fear and walked forward with his head held high. When he passed by Cao Ren and others, his face was full of disdain, and he said to himself that you bunch of trash invited me to die, how will your ending be better in the future?

Sima Yi and Cao Xiu looked at each other, and said to themselves that you have been polluted by 'filth', everyone let you die, and they didn't want to implicate other people, why did you only pay attention to us?
Yang Xiu was punished in the light rain, and when Xu Chu returned to the central army, Cao Cao frowned and asked, "Did Dezu leave any last words?"

Xu Chu thought for a while and replied: "Master Yang left a message 'Those with chicken ribs, there is no meat to eat, but it tastes good to throw away'."

Cao Cao frowned, thinking that this guy is not optimistic about this war?Then he said angrily, "I don't know why."

He didn't understand the meaning of the words at first, but he was already a person in the words. After Cao Cao made Cao Pi his son, how could Yang Xiu's situation be tasteless?
