The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 559 Everyone is happy
The next day.

Xuanshi Hall, early dynasty.

After the ceremony was over, the emperor asked the ministers if they had any proposals. Ding Gong, who was standing in front of the courtiers, stepped out, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have a memorial."

The emperor looked over and raised his hand to signal: "Please speak, Sikong."

Ding Gong bowed, pressed down the wat board in his hand, and said respectfully: "I implore Your Majesty, forgive Cai Yong."

When Liu Xie heard this, the expression on his face was obviously very reluctant: "Why?"

Cai Yong cried Dong Zhuo before, and Dong Zhuo used Liu Xie as a puppet and gave orders to him unscrupulously.Therefore, in Liu Xie's eyes, anyone who is on Dong Zhuo's side is definitely not a good person.

What's more, Cai Yong also publicly wept and mourned Dong Zhuo, and confessed to it.

"Your Majesty, Cai Yong is a great Confucian in the world, respected by scholars all over the world, and he is a landmark in the literary world. Although he cried Dong Zhuo, he made a big mistake, but I think the crime is not worthy of death. What's more, Cai Yong is knowledgeable and knowledgeable. Your Majesty might as well order him to perform crimes and meritorious deeds, and order him to continue compiling Han history in order to complete such a cause."

"Therefore, I would like to ask you to pardon Cai Yong's death crime with the broad mind of an emperor. I believe that the scholars in the world know it, and they will definitely praise your majesty's benevolence."

Liu Xie is still young, and he doesn't have much autonomy in dealing with things.Hearing what Ding Gong said now, he doesn't hate Cai Yong as much as before, but thinks that Cai Yong is a talent and there is no need to kill him.

"Your Majesty, I have objections!"

Just when Liu Xie wanted to move, one of the courtiers below came out and raised his voice to argue: "Did you forget? Dong Zhuo, a great thief of the country, almost overthrew the Han Dynasty! As a courtier, Cai Yong was thinking of The courteous treatment I received under Dong Zhuo's command, I forgot my integrity! Now that Dong Zhuo has been killed and the whole country celebrates, Cai Yong feels hurt for him instead. Isn't this kind of behavior against the king and rebellion!"

Everyone looked at it, and the speaker was Situ and Wang Yun, one of the three lords.

As early as when Dong Zhuo was in power, among the civil servants Dong Zhuo valued and favored three people: Wang Yun, Ding Gong, and Cai Yong.

Now, among the three, two became Sangongs, while the other became a prisoner.

What's interesting is that among the three men, one wants to be rescued and the other wants to be killed.

People can't help feeling a little bit, good luck tricks people.

"Your Majesty, Bo Xie is a rare and unrivaled genius. He is knowledgeable and well-informed, especially he knows a lot about the stories of this dynasty. I agree with Ding Sikong's suggestion. He should be given the opportunity to continue writing history books. Loyalty and filial piety are well-known among scholar-bureaucrats, and to convict him now in an unwarranted name may disappoint the public and disconvince the hearts of the people."

Taifu Ma Rixun spoke out. He has known Cai Yong for many years. He is not only a colleague of the same dynasty as an official, but also a good friend who helps each other.

Now that Cai Yong is in trouble, Ma Rizun naturally couldn't bear to have his old friend taken to the market and show his head to the public.

So after Ding Gong, he was the first person willing to speak out for Cai Yong.

"Taifu's words are wrong. In the past, Emperor Wu did not kill Sima Qian, but let him write a slander and pass it on to future generations. Now that the country is in decline and the regime is unstable, we must not allow treacherous and flattering officials to write articles next to the young master. This will not only benefit the Holy Majesty. Benevolence, you will also cause us to suffer slander!"

Wang Yun still didn't want to let it go, and the treacherous minister in his mouth naturally alluded to Cai Yong.

With such a small belly, he wholeheartedly wants to kill Cai Yong.

The Taiwei Yang Biao who was beside him couldn't stand it any longer, and he came out and said sonorously: "Being kind to talents is the lifeblood of the country's maintenance and development, and allowing the country's classics to spread is to attach importance to the country's system and laws and regulations." Cai Since Yong is a great Confucianist in the world, and his reputation is spread all over the country, why can't he be used?"

Several big brothers had a dispute, and the rest of the people were afraid to speak out.

Wang Yun wanted to argue again, but Lu Bu, who was standing opposite, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Coming out at this time, the eyes of everyone in the hall naturally fell on Lu Bu.

The emperor also looked at Lu Bu, indicating that he could continue the report.

Lu Bu then continued: "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, the remnants of Dong Zhuo, Li Jue, Guo Si and others fled to the Hanoi area after Dong Zhuo's demise. Now they are engulfed by nearly ten thousand soldiers and stationed in Yuanwu and Fengqiu. Yesterday, I received two In the memorial, the two confessed their crimes and begged the imperial court to grant them extra-judicial grace and pardon them."

"In addition, Niu Fu, the rebel general stationed in Aocang, was also attacked and killed by Hu Chi'er, the Marquis under his command a few days ago, and all the soldiers under his command broke up and fled."

"The old minister would like to ask His Majesty, how should these people be dealt with?"

Regarding the matter of Cai Yong, Ding Gong discussed with Lu Bu in advance, and Xi Ce also approached Lu Bu in private, asking him to save Cai Yong.

Cai Yong's death will only be a loss to the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, whether in public or private, Lu Bu will not stand idly by.

He deliberately brought up the matter of Li Jue, Guo Si and others, just to encircle Wei and save Zhao, and achieve the goal of saving the country in a curve.

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the court, each insisting on their own words.

"The rest of the soldiers can be pardoned, except for Li Jue and Guo Si!"

Wang Yun didn't know if he had forgotten to take his medicine, and he wanted to raise an argument when he saw anyone, and said loudly: "Dong Zhuo's success is due to these people as his minions, helping the tyrant to abuse him. In the opinion of the old minister, send troops immediately to destroy him!"

One yard owned by a yard.

This time, many people still nodded in favor of Wang Yun's proposal.After all, when they were in Luoyang, they were often bullied by Li Jue and others.

Sure enough, this old Wang Yun was still as stubborn as he was in the previous life.

Lu Bu thought to himself, in this way, Li Jue and others will inevitably be forced to jump over the wall and stage another large-scale rebellion.

Although there is Gao Shun guarding Hangu Pass, there is no need to worry about them being able to force their way in, but this will always consume their own strength.

At present, the princes of various towns are secretly recruiting troops, just around the corner.

Lu Bu didn't want to waste more energy and physical strength at this time.

Before the Son of Heaven had made up his mind, Lu Bu raised his voice a little: "At first, they were innocent, but they followed Dong Zhuo because of involuntary control, so they had to follow his orders and made mistakes. Now they Since they have the intention to repent and repent, why can't the court give them a way out?"

"If you have to accuse them of treason, these gangs of desperadoes will definitely put all their eggs in one basket and do harm everywhere. It's better to appease them temporarily and ask people to go and impose a small punishment. I believe they will be grateful to the court and dare not Renew your rebellious heart."

What Lu Bu said was very clear, just like when Dayu was controlling the floods, blocking is worse than sparse.

Rather than exterminating them, it is better to recruit security.

"The old minister still thinks that such villains should be eradicated!" Wang Yun's face was filled with anger.

Lu Bu glanced at Wang Yun, and said in a faint voice with an undeniable aura: "Is it up to me or Situ that the army fights?"

Wang Yun was startled when he heard the words, as if he understood something, then his eyes dimmed, and he stopped talking.

At the end of the court meeting, Cai Yong was released from prison under the recommendation of all the ministers.

Li Jue, Guo Si and the others were severely reprimanded by the court, and they were downgraded to save their lives.As for Hu Chi'er who assassinated Niu Fu, he also transformed into Fu Ni Zhong Lang.

All in all, everyone is happy.
