Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 555
Liu Bei was shocked, and quickly shouted: "No!!"

"Stop!! Don't shoot!!"

He shouted, the soldiers didn't know whose order they should obey, and hesitated, Guan Yu, who was standing among the soldiers, said, "Stop." With Guan Yu's order, these soldiers put away the yellow crossbow , but the officials in the courtyard could no longer speak. They looked at the prince rate in the distance in horror, and they could feel that this person did not intentionally scare them. I want to shoot all the prefects, including a governor, to death! ! !
Is this human? ? ?

This is a cruel official far better than Zhang Tangyangqiu! !

A few of them were so frightened that they fell to the ground, and the rest were not much better, their legs were trembling. It could be seen that they were terrified. They really did not expect that the emperor would send such a person. He came to Jingzhou with brain disease, this person is too terrifying, does he not know, if he dared to shoot these eight prefects and one governor here today, would he be finished?Not to mention the Son of Heaven, no one in the world will spare him, but this person really dares.

They can only rejoice when they meet such a guy. Fortunately, there is Liu Bei walking with him. Looking at their terrified eyes, Liu Bei heaves a sigh of relief. Not to mention them, even Liu Bei is also frightened. The servant is too dangerous, and I almost let myself follow him to be buried with him. This place is powerful, and if you kill it, you will kill it. No matter how many you kill, they deserve what they deserve, and no one dares to defend them. Not only will the emperor not blame him, They will also praise their courage, but these officials are different! !
They are all local officials, eunuchs, and governors. If they are placed in the temple, they are all big figures like Jiuqing. I'm afraid His Royal Highness will be implicated, and everyone can't protect themselves. Fortunately, there is Guan Yu here, who has a good relationship with him. He looked at Guan Yu in the distance and said, "Thank you, Captain Guan, thank you." After finishing speaking, Only then did he look at Man Chong next to him, who was a little displeased.

He said: "These people resist orders and disrespect, and let the powerful oppress the people. What's more, they resist with swords and shoot them!"

Just after he finished speaking, the eunuchs took off their swords wisely and threw them on the ground. They didn't dare to offend this lunatic any more.

Liu Bei said helplessly: "It's just a crime of negligence, how can you be executed like this? What's more, wouldn't the innocent people among them also die tragically at our hands, they let the powerful and oppressed the people, this crime, I absolutely don't like it I will protect them, even if you are full of favors and don’t check, I will definitely go to check it myself and play the emperor!! Seek justice for the people of Jingzhou!! However, they can’t just die like this, if they still have accomplices , They died like this again, didn't they let the traitor go?"

Man Chong heard Liu Bei's words like this, nodded in agreement, and ordered: "Arrest them!!"

Guan Yu looked into Liu Bei's eyes with a hint of respect. He has always been such a person. He has never liked those braggart scholars, and he does not want to have any friendship with such big men as Sangong Jiuqing. Before, he was also After listening to Hua Xiong's nonsense, he followed Yuan Shu. Of course, he also learned of Yuan Shu's background later on. However, at that time, his friendship with Yuan Shu was already very close, so he didn't say much. It's always been this way.

Even if he had a good opportunity to get close to Dong Zhuo and the prince, he didn't pay attention to it. Unlike Hua Xiong, who was so close to Dong Zhuo and Liu Mastiff, Guan Yu was different, he always kept a distance On the contrary, he was very kind to those who came from poor backgrounds, even the people at the bottom, like two people. When he first met Liu Bei, Liu Bei told him that Liu Bei's background was not very good. He is a clan member of the Han family, but he also came from a poor background. He has gone through untold hardships to get to where he is today.

Now, seeing Liu Bei's words like this again, he respected him even more in his heart.

Guan Yu didn't think too much, and led the soldiers, rushed directly into the crowd, and detained them one by one. After seeing the Northern Army flag they were carrying, these prefects became even more obedient. It is these hundreds of Northern Army that can slaughter Jingzhou, and counties and counties are more soldiers, even ten thousand people, it is hard to say whether they can withstand them. This Northern Army is the most powerful army of the Han Dynasty. Although the Southern Army is not I don't think so.

When they passed by Liu Bei, they did not forget to express their gratitude to Liu Bei, "Thank you, Mr. Liu, for saving your life!" Liu Bei wanted to cry without tears. He obviously brought someone to arrest you. savior?Liu Bei didn't care, Man Chong took them directly, and locked them all in the county government prison. The jailer saw that the governor and the large group of people were locked in, his legs trembled in fright, and he seemed to cry, but Man Chong stayed behind again. More than 50 Northern Army soldiers guarded them.

After walking out of the county office, Liu Bei asked, "What's the situation? Can Lord Man have all the evidence of their crimes?"

Man Chong nodded, took Liu Bei to the post station, and said as he walked: "Liu Gong doesn't know, I got more criminal evidence than I thought before, and they also cooperated with the officials to embezzle the alimony of the temple. The alimony of the weak, the sick, and the disabled was swallowed up by them, and there were even aristocratic families who directly cooperated with local officials to embezzle the money of the county government officials, and forced several officials to death, and more , but just the first few items are enough to put them to death."

Man Chong said, and opened the gate of the station.

The smell of blood rushed to his face, and Liu Bei was petrified.

In the entire post station, there were so many heads placed densely, it could be seen that most of the people didn't want to rest in peace! !
Looking at such a hellish scene, it took Liu Bei a long time to recover. Looking at Man Chong beside him, he asked, "Why is this?"

"Military merit of the Northern Army? The way the Northern Army obtains military merit is by beheading. Could it be that Mr. Liu doesn't know?" Man Chong asked back, but Liu Bei was speechless, so Man Chong closed the door.

Liu Bei pondered for a long time, and he didn't say much about Man Chong's behavior. They went back to the county office and sat down. Man Chong handed over the charges. Liu Bei watched seriously, his face gradually becoming angry, and he put down He took the charge in his hand and said: "It is true that I should be killed!! I am a big man in the world, and I was killed by such a traitor!!" He said angrily, looked at Man Chong, and continued: "Mr. Man, this Although it is easy to solve the matter of the powerful, but the matter of the aristocratic family is somewhat difficult."

"Next, I will visit these aristocratic families. At that time, Man Jun will be threatening at the side, let's let them confess their crimes first." Liu Bei said a lot, then looked at Man Chong, and asked: "What do you think of Man Chong?" ?”

"Is what Mr. Liu is talking about the Huang, Cai, and Zhang families?" Man Chong asked suspiciously.

Liu Bei suddenly had a bad idea in his heart, he nodded and asked, "How is Man Jun?"

"Oh, I killed them together with Hao Qiang." Man Chong said, and then said: "Therefore, there is no need to think about family matters, in my opinion, it is better to send these people to Luo Yang to deal with them." Let them get rid of them, and then wait for the new prefects in Jingzhou, and then we will continue the official and academic affairs. Of course, during this free period, we can't wait for nothing. We'd better take this opportunity to go to Yangzhou and rule Yangzhou. What does Mr. Liu think??"

"Grand Liu??"

"Grand Liu?!"

The 17th year of Xiping, June
What happened in Jingzhou shocked the whole world. Sinonong Liu Bei and the crown prince who had nothing to do with him were even more favored. In addition, a captain of the Northern Army actually washed the whole Jingzhou with blood. The family was directly wiped out, and no one was left behind. This kind of cruel method shocked the people of the world. Immediately, Liu Bei's reputation spread throughout the big man. Of course, this time, it was not a good name, and everyone was cursing Liu Bei. Even if this cruel official committed such an inhumane thing, even if he was guilty, he shouldn't be punished so harshly! !
Why do you, Liu Xuande, have any grudge against them?Need to use the Northern Army to wipe them out? ?

The most taboo and fear of this family is the extermination of the family. If the family is implicated and a few people die, it doesn't matter. Relying on the accumulated resources, they can still start over. But what if the entire family is wiped out? ?This is really terrifying, so Liu Bei became the third person who was notorious in the Han Dynasty after Wang Fu and Cao Cao. For his continuous impeachment to the Hall of Houde, he wanted the emperor to withdraw this horror Sinong, let him get out of the temple quickly.

This is the first time a minister of the Han Dynasty has done such an unreasonable thing to the family! !

This is not powerful, this is an aristocratic family! !

Liu Bei was very wronged.

People in Jingzhou understand the truth in their hearts, and they also know that this is what Man Chong did, not Liu Bei, but people outside don't think so. From their point of view, Liu Bei, as a sinong, must be instigated by him, and the crown prince Rate Geng Ling was actually sent by the emperor to study with Liu Bei. Unexpectedly, he was taught by Liu Bei. Because Liu Bei had the highest official position, this crime was resisted by him. After Liu Bei learned about it, he was not surprised. fear or surprise.

He had already thought that this would be the case, which was why he protected those prefects.

It is impossible to be guilty of being full of favors, why?
He thought that he represented the East Palace and Liu Mastiff outside.

Just like this time, many people are aware of Man Chong's temperament, and those with a little knowledge can understand that this is Man Chong's actions, but the wind is still against Liu Bei, and no one even talks about Man Chong's crimes. Liu Bei would not believe it if there was no one pushing behind it. There is a pair of huge hands protecting Liu Mastiff, pushing away all the culpability that is not good for him, and letting other people bear it. Liu Bei is very clear about this. , he also knew that the huge hand stretched out from Houde Hall.

But what can he do? ?As a minister, what can he do? ?
What's more, this kind of opportunity to replace the king and the emperor to be punished is rare. Liu Bei doesn't hate cruel officials. The so-called cruel officials are just courtiers who are cruel to these self-proclaimed sages. Still quite respectful, just like Man Chong, Liu Bei appreciates his courage, if Liu Bei is allowed to come, maybe Liu Bei really can't do this, so Man Chong will dare.

Since everyone in the world calls me a cruel official, so what if I should be a cruel official for the sake of the great man? ? ?
"Full of love!!!"

"exist!!"
