Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 152

"I don't know something!" After the emperor smiled, his eyes became kind, he looked at Mujing, and said in a deep voice: "Your father put an end to the Yellow Turban Rebellion for me and killed the two thieves himself. He is a hero of the court. Why? Call yourself a criminal!"

"The criminals are at fault, even though the father of the criminals is a Han subject, he is still at fault, and he is also a criminal!"

Mu Jing played respectfully.

"Since ancient times, merit and demerit can be offset!"

The Son of Heaven said magnanimously: "You tell me, what's wrong, I'll consider it, but can I consider it, can I make the decision for you!"

"The father of the sinner, originally surnamed Mu, famous mountain, in the characters, is just a hunter. He doesn't understand poetry and books, and he doesn't understand the truth. In the past, he was encouraged by Zhang Mancheng, the chieftain of Nanyang, and once joined the ranks of the Yellow Turbans to harm the people of Nanyang. This is a serious crime! "

Mu Jing kowtowed down, very hard, and knocked loudly between his forehead and the wooden board, his voice was persistent and sincere: "Although my father took care of the miserable situation in Nanyang, he was full of remorse, and regretted that his reputation would be ruined. I have changed my name and surname, and worshiped in Wuyin County. I only hope to make up for my mistakes and redeem the past mistakes, but the crime is still there, and I beg your majesty to come down. The father and son are willing to accept the crime!"

That's a start.

Some things are better to be revealed by himself than to wait for others to expose them.

Zhang Chuan's reputation is not important.

But Mushan must rectify his name.

"It turns out that he is indeed the former Yellow Turban Bandit!"

"This person can be regarded as a man with a heart!"

"I just don't know if he surrendered to the court, is he loyal, or is he harboring evil intentions!"

"If such a person is let go, how will we explain to all the people in the world!"

"But since he has served the imperial court, if he is killed, it will not only stir up rebellion, so don't be careless!"

When the ministers heard the words, many people felt turbulent. There are some things that everyone knows are tacit understanding, but once they are said, it is a problem that they have to face.

"Although this person is smart, he is so upright!"

"If he doesn't tell the story, even if everyone is a little conscious, they will recite Mushan's merits and forgive his crimes!"

"But now, the imperial court can only kill or spare. This is a dilemma!"

Someone looked at Mu Jing's figure and said secretly in his heart.

"I see!"

Hearing the words, the Son of Heaven suddenly realized something, but there was a bit of embarrassment on his face, and he said: "Although Mushan made a mistake, the party who caused the disaster should indeed be punished, but he knows that he can correct his mistakes, assist the court, and suppress the rebellion." Jun, this is..."

"His Majesty!"

At this time, some people couldn't sit still, and the first one to stand up was He Jin, the most powerful general in the imperial court today: "This beast in Mushan, changing his name and surname is a mistake of deceiving the master and destroying the ancestors. Unfilial, in the past he was even more of a disaster, betrayed the court, betrayed His Majesty, so unfaithful, he slaughtered the people in the old battle of Nanyang, it is unrighteous, such an unfaithful, unfilial and unrighteous person, should die in Ling Chi, Kill the Nine Clans!"

"Mushan should be killed!"

"Such disloyalty, filial piety and unrighteousness will never be forgiven!"

"..."

Many ministers stood up and said indignantly.

Yuan Feng and Yuan Kai looked at each other, Yuan Feng came out and said: "Your Majesty, the Yellow Turban Rebellion has shaken the foundation of the court. If you connive at the Yellow Turban rebels, wouldn't it make the world laugh at the incompetence of my Han court? Zi should be killed, Mushan should be killed, the killing of thunder must be used to frighten the world, to show the power of my great man, and to stabilize my great Han dynasty!"

"But Mushan's achievements in suppressing the bandits are the facts. If we..."

The emperor was a little embarrassed and was thinking about it, but his words were quickly interrupted.

"Your Majesty, merit is merit and demerit is demerit. How can we confuse it? I believe that Mu Shan must be killed. Otherwise, why do you want to let the world know the majesty of my glorious man!"

The sound of He Jin's thunder resounded above the palace.

"General He Jin, Your Majesty has not finished speaking yet. You are so rude, how dare you yell at the monarch in the court, what crime should you deserve!" As the head of the ten permanent servants, Zhang Rang is in the court. He is the master who can speak face to face, he stepped out and looked at He Jin coldly.

"Eunuch, this is the court hall. In the past, Gaozu said that eunuchs are not allowed to interfere with the government affairs. How dare you speak in the court hall? Are you impatient?" He Jin showed no sign of weakness, and started to drink loudly.

"Asshole, do you still take His Majesty seriously?"

"The ones who don't take His Majesty seriously are these eunuchs!"

"..."

A scolding war started, and both sides were full of anger.

"Shut up for me!"

The emperor's face was gloomy like water, and his voice drank. He has been in power for twenty years and has ruled the world. The power of the emperor exploded, and he said coldly: "This is the court, not the market. How can you be so presumptuous? You are not going to let me go!" Is it in your eyes?"

"I dare not wait!"

"Old slave dare not!"

In the court hall, everyone quickly knelt down and bowed to admit their mistakes.

The emperor Liu Hong, even if he has lost his name in later generations, he is the emperor after all, and he has not just come to power. He has been in charge of the government for 20 years, and has been in charge of the government for more than ten years.

"Everyone is the minister of the humerus of my great man. Mushan has made mistakes, but he also has merits. Whether the merits and demerits can be compared depends on your opinions!" The emperor said: "Lu Zhi, you are the minister, tell me explain!"

Many people looked at Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi is also the leader of a faction in the court today, so his words are very important to the power of eunuchs, relatives, or wealthy families.

"Hehe, Your Majesty actually asked Lu Zhi. You must know that this Lu Shangshu hates eunuchs the most, and he once took command of the Yellow Turbans in the past. He was decisive and killed countless Yellow Turban rebels. He will definitely hate the remnants of the Yellow Turbans!"

Many people laughed in their hearts.

"I believe that Mu Shan should be pardoned!"

Lu Zhi stood up, cupped his hands and said.

"Lu Shangshu, what did you say?" Yuan Feng's complexion turned gloomy.

He originally thought that Lu Zhi and the others, as members of the gentry, even if they disagreed with them politically in the court in the past, they should have the same position on the issue of the Yellow Turbans.

"I said, Mu Shan should pardon his crimes and reward his meritorious deeds!"

Lu Zhi said indifferently: "All the Yellow Turbans in the world are rebellious thieves, but the thieves are the people. Now the Yellow Turban Rebellion is no longer a problem. It is difficult for us to kill these Yellow Turban people. Since they surrendered to the court for reasons, I Can't you just accept them, after all they were once big men, the Master said, knowing mistakes can be corrected, there is nothing good about it, since they have the heart to correct their mistakes, I think the court should be magnanimous and give them a chance!"

"Master Wang, what do you mean?" The emperor was also a little surprised, he glanced at Mu Jing who was kneeling under the hall, meaningful, and continued to ask with a move in his heart.

"I also think that Mu Shan should be exonerated!"

As Henan Yin, Wang Yun is in charge of the capital, so his status is naturally very high. He said in a deep voice: "In today's world, thieves are everywhere, which has threatened the safety of the imperial court. The Yellow Turban Rebellion is especially serious. The thieves, how can we suppress them endlessly, kill them endlessly, there are still Heishan thieves in Hebei, and Baibo thieves in Hebei, and the Yellow Turbans are quite rampant in Qingzhou. Accepting his weapons will definitely bring peace to the world!
Since Mushan is willing to surrender to our imperial court, why don't we accept it, confer high positions, and announce it to the world as an example. In this way, we can publicize the benevolent government of the imperial court, your majesty's benevolent heart, can win over the hearts of the Yellow Turban thieves, and appease the hearts of the people Heart, there must be more people willing to surrender to the imperial court in the future! "

"That's a great word!"

"What Wangfu Yin said is true!"

Many ministers agreed with Wang Yun's statement.

After all, the Yellow Turbans were suppressed and suppressed again and again, and the imperial court worked hard, but they could not be killed after all. If there is another way to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion, it would be a way.

"What Wangfu Yin said is different!"

Yuan Feng cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the evil heart is hard to change. If they rebel against them again in the future, wouldn't the court be in trouble!"

"Yuan Sikong!"

A low voice sounded.

Everyone looked at the voice of Mu Jing, a young man bowing his head. He looked at Yuan Feng and said in a low voice, "You are so aggressive that my father and son were killed. Could it be that you have ulterior motives!"

"This old man is doing it for the safety of the imperial court, why are you selfish!"

"Under my father, there are [-] yellow scarves. Although my father is guilty, he deserves to die, and he is willing to accept the crime. However, the yellow scarves under his command are unruly, so how can he plead guilty in peace? If my father commits suicide, these soldiers will lose control, and then they will turn back again. For the disaster of Runan, not only will millions of people in Runan be plunged into dire straits, but in this way, the Yuan family of Runan can support themselves!"

Mujing doesn't mind tearing his face apart, there's going to be a fight anyway, he has to stand firm, and today, only by clinging to the emperor's thighs can he survive: "Yuan Sikong has worked hard to force back those who were going to join him. Is it possible that the soldiers of the imperial court are raising soldiers for the purpose of manipulating thieves?"

"That said, it's not impossible!"

"The land of Runan was originally the belly of the Yuan family. Once the Yellow Turban is in chaos, the Yuan family in Runan must expand its army in a legitimate manner. At that time, the land of Runan may no longer be in command of the imperial court!"

"It's quite sinister to be so careful!"

"Could it be that the Yuan family, who has four generations and three princes, also has a dissatisfaction with the court?"

Quite a number of ministers are clear-headed people, and after listening to Mu Jing's glance, they will have some associations to some extent, and thus begin to doubt Yuan's intentions.

"What nonsense!"

Yuan Feng's calm demeanor couldn't be suppressed anymore, he roared angrily: "Zhu Zi, you slander the old man and provoke the old man's loyalty to His Majesty, what are you trying to do!"

"Your Majesty, I am wronged!"

He also kowtowed and wept bitterly and indignantly.

"Depend on!"

Mu Jing had to admit that he underestimated these ministers, all of them were peerless film kings, and it didn't take a moment for him to cry.

"Ai Qing doesn't have to be like this, the Yuan family's loyalty is recognized by the world, how can I doubt the Yuan family!"

The emperor said soothingly: "Mulong Tu, don't talk nonsense!"

"promise!"

Mu Jing smiled coldly, continued to kowtow to the Son of Heaven, and said, "Your Majesty, both father and son are guilty of crimes, and they are willing to accept the judgment of the Holy Father, willing to accept the crime, and have no complaints!"

"I have made a decision on this matter!"

"His Majesty……"

"I said, I have made a decision!"

"No!" All the ministers quickly dared not speak.

"Mujing, no matter how you say it, your father was a giant Yellow Turban bandit in the past. It is indeed a crime to harm the common people, but he also contributed to the chaos in Runan for me!"

The Son of Heaven stood up from his seat, walked down the Dragon Court step by step, walked up to the lobby, looked at Mu Jing, and said leisurely: "But under the court's law, merits and demerits cannot be offset..."

When he said this, the eyes of Yuan Feng, He Jin and others brightened slightly, it seemed that Mushan would not be able to pass this hurdle.

"but!"

The voice of the Son of Heaven changed: "The testimonies are nothing more than human feelings. From ancient times to the present, there have been fathers' sins redeemed by their sons. This is filial piety. The court will definitely allow it. Are you willing to take the sins of the past for your father?"
