Chapter 181 Five-Color Big Stick
Since then, the law and order in Luoyang has also gradually improved. Under Cao Cao's internal cooperation, the rangers have nowhere to hide, and the county government is full of criminals. Of course, these people are at most drinking, night theater and the like For petty crimes, and most of them were young children of aristocratic families, the county government simply detained them for a few days, and released them after a lesson.

These soldiers did not dare to target them too much. Look at Cao Cao. Not long ago, this guy was one of the children of the wealthy family who was taught a lesson. In the blink of an eye, he became his immediate boss. Among them, who else will change suddenly and talk to himself in the future?

Only Cao Cao has always been rude to these people.

Within a few days, Cao Cao ordered his servants to find some jet-black things from the mansion. These things were wrapped in black cloth. At first glance, it was a five-color stick, extremely thick, and everyone was puzzled. They asked, "Mr. Cao, what is this?" Hit it!"

Everyone was horrified. After the news got out, Luoyang Youxia was also cautious. Even Yuan Shu didn't dare to wander outside. He couldn't guarantee that this childhood playmate would let him go without worrying about their friendship. Judging from the previous situation, he was obviously not scrupled.

On this day, Cao Cao was patrolling the night with many soldiers. Suddenly, there were a few noises in the distance. Cao Cao hurriedly led his men to run over, but he was surrounded by several soldiers and was arguing with the soldiers. Seeing Cao Cao approaching, these soldiers immediately moved out of the way for Cao Cao. Cao Cao swaggered over, frowned, and asked, "Who are you? How dare you violate the curfew and go out at night?"

The visitor was also a little flustered when he saw these pawns staring at him around him, and hurriedly said, "I am the uncle of Jianshuo from the yellow family in the palace."

"Oh, I didn't ask who your close relatives are. I asked who you are and why you travel at night?" Cao Cao said disdainfully, then looked at his waist, and sneered: "You are still wearing a knife. You are trying to plot something wrong. Come on, take it down for me!!" The guards immediately stepped forward and subdued the man, and Cao Cao took him back to the county government office.

"Mr. Cao, do you want to report to County Magistrate Zhou?"

"You don't need to disturb County Magistrate Zhou for such trivial matters!" Cao Cao waved his hand and said.

The man's eyes flashed brightly, and he shouted: "You are Cao Cao, the captain of Luoyang County? The grandson of Marquis Fei Ting?? My nephew knew Marquis Fei Ting, and he is also a good friend of Da Honglu! Jun Cao, let him go." Let me do it once, I won't dare to do it again in the future!" He also secretly complained in his heart, originally he just wanted to get together with a few friends at night, and he had never been caught on weekdays, and today he was so unlucky!

It is not good to meet someone, but he met this Cao Cao. He knows Cao Cao. Not long after this person took office, he made the Luoyang Ranger disappear. , he shouted again: "My nephew is the subordinate of Song Gong, Song Gong is His Majesty's confidant, Cao Jun, please forgive me this time!"

Going out at night is not a crime of killing one's body. According to the law of the Han Dynasty, one is also subject to flogging. However, it is dangerous to go out with a sword. Because the former king of Hejian, Liu Li, was killed by assassins in the suburbs of Luoyang, which aroused the anger of the emperor and made Luo In Yangnei, the common people are not allowed to travel with swords and soldiers privately, and offenders will be punished severely, and if they travel with swords and soldiers at night, they will be beheaded!
Hearing this man's pleading, Cao Cao was furious and said without any nonsense, "Call me!"

He was ridiculed and despised because of his birth. Most of the scholars in Luoyang did not want to have anything to do with him because he was an eunuch. In Luoyang, there were only a few of his playmates, Yuan Shao , Yuan Shu, Zhang Miao, Xu You, etc. Zhang Miao was older than them, so he entered the Taiyuan Academy early and became famous everywhere, and Xu You did the same. He had returned to his hometown in Nanyang and studied behind closed doors.

The rest of the people have never been friendly with him, because of this problem, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu and others often vent their anger on him and fight with other people in Luoyang. Of course, because they are not many in number, they are often beaten.

The issue of family background has always been a hurdle in Cao Cao's mind, which made him extremely uncomfortable, and this person mentioned Cao Cao's family background, which must have made Cao Cao furious. The soldiers also obeyed Cao Cao's order, tied him up, took off his clothes, and held him The five-color stick beat him fiercely. The man wailed in pain and kept begging for mercy, but Cao Cao was unmoved. When the soldiers were exhausted and out of breath.

Only then did Cao Cao order them to stop, but at this time, the man had already been beaten to death, beaten to death!
Those soldiers didn't panic when they saw that someone had been killed. Although the laws of the Han Dynasty were not as strict as the laws of the Qin Dynasty, after the continuous efforts of the emperors over the years, they were still relatively serious. The crime of beheading alone was 33 Of course, there are serious crimes such as treason and unfilial piety, as well as crimes such as debts and possession of land, and even Emperor Xiaohuan added one.

Those who make friends with knight-errants everywhere die.

This is to prevent the aristocratic family from raising a large number of followers, and also to prevent the party group from growing bigger. However, the emperor did not point out the measure of how many friends he made. Therefore, this crime became the best weapon in the hands of the eunuchs during the party imprisonment period. As long as you have a few friends who are knight-errants, you are regarded as a supporter of the dead, and you are making friends with the same party, and you are a death penalty!

Therefore, there are not many people killed by these pawns, and there is nothing unusual.

But the next day, when Cao Cao notified Jian's family to come to collect the dead body, Luo Yang was terrified. His reputation spread all over the world immediately, because he killed the eunuch Jian Shuo's uncle, and the party members praised him full of praise!
They all praised Cao Cao as a model of officials for not being afraid of power.

This made Yang Qiu, Zhang Yun and others puzzled. We are also not afraid of power. We have killed more powerful people than him. Why don't we have a good reputation? We are all cruel officials, and he is a model when he kills people? ?

Behind the praise of the literati and bureaucrats is the anger of the eunuch group, especially Song Dian, Jian Shuo, etc., who hate Cao Cao even more, and they don’t have a good face when facing the Cao family. The little fat man is reviewing the memorial in the hall. Dian rushed in and cried loudly. The little fat man raised his head and looked at him. Today's embroidered clothes envoy has returned to its former glory.

There was nothing around Luo Yang that the little fat man didn't know about. He knew what Song Dian was here for, but he still frowned, pretending to be puzzled, and asked, "What are you doing? Why are you still crying? "

"The country is the master of the slaves!!" Song Dian wailed loudly, the little fat man pulled him up, and said, "If you have anything to say, just tell me, don't upset me!" Song Dian stopped his voice immediately, and said, "That Luo Cao Cao, Lieutenant of Yangbei, relied on His Majesty's great love, to practice cruel law with Luo Yangnei privately, and anyone who commits crimes will be beaten to death by him, it is simply lawless!"

The little fat man was taken aback, looked at Song Dian, and said with a sneer, "If he killed not Jian Shuo's uncle, but a certain member of the scholar party, wouldn't you come to me and cry?", Song Dian trembled all over, lowered his head immediately, and his face became panicked. The little fat man shook his head and said, "You have been with me for nearly ten years, and I don't want to spend time changing a confidant."

"Concentrate on doing things for me, and I will not let you be bullied, but if you violate the laws of the Han Dynasty, I will never forgive you lightly!"

"Slave is guilty! Slave is guilty!" Song Dian said in fear, and the fat man waved his hand to let him out.

Song Dian walked out of the palace gate, sighing helplessly, there was nothing he could do to complain, the country didn't like eunuchs who were too smart, if he wasn't stupid, how could he still be the confidant of the country?
　Wow, there was a sudden power outage at home, and it lasted for a long time. Lao Lang's mentality exploded, and the few households around Lao Lang's house were out of power. God will not let Lao Lang change more! !
