Chapter 679 Must Kill
Hou Wen's shout attracted the attention of the refugees, and they cast their eyes on the show.

On the contrary, those soldiers in the censor's mansion showed surprise on their faces, and they couldn't stop thinking: isn't this our lord censor?How could he be captured so easily?
Looking at the tall man standing upright in front of Hou Wen, and the fierce men next to him, all respectful, it is expected that this man's identity is even more extraordinary.

The emperor's feet dared to capture the court servant Yushi at will, and this person should be at the lowest level of the Sangong.

Combined with this person's height and imposing manner, everyone invariably thought of one person: the current great Sima——Lu Bu!
As a result, the refugees all knelt down and shouted loudly: "Please Da Sima decide for us!"

After being recognized, Lu Bu did not hide his identity. He lightly raised his arm to let the people get up first, then glanced at Hou Wen, and said slowly to the victims: "You are all the people of my big man. As the Great Sima, I should protect you and others. Your Majesty has clearly stated beforehand that it is because the servant Yushi Houwen enriched himself and withheld food for disaster relief, which caused a large number of people to starve to death on the way."

Hearing these words, the people were furious. It turned out that it was not that the imperial court didn't want to help them, but that this guy was obstructing it and did a good job!

If it weren't for their status and class etiquette, they would have gone up and killed this guy who deserved to be cut into pieces.

If Hou Wen is not killed, it will not be enough for the common people to be angry!
Lu Bu knew this very well, besides, he also had the idea of ​​killing people to establish his prestige. The drought was so severe that the people would still not trust the court if they didn't kill some officials to show their attitude.

"Come here, tie up Hou Wen and behead him in public!"

Following Lu Bu's order, two soldiers pushed Hou Wen to the open space ahead.

The people immediately cheered, and the color of joy overflowed their faces.

It seems that the imperial court still has good officials who are willing to avenge the people's grievances!
Now it was Hou Wen's turn to panic, he never expected that Lu Bu would actually come to play for real, and he panicked for a moment, but he was unwilling to die here, turned around and shouted at Lu Bu: "I am your majesty's father!" Feng's servant Yushi, you have no right to kill me! You have no right to kill me!"

Lu Bu turned a deaf ear and was too lazy to waste his time talking.

In the palace hall at this time, Liu Xie, the emperor, was still teasing a rooster with a big red and golden crown. Every time he heard that loud crowing sound, Liu Xie felt extremely comfortable.

"Your Majesty, it's not good!"

Xiao Huangmen Han Xuan rushed into the hall with a look of anxiety on his face.

Being disturbed, Liu Xie naturally didn't have a good face, and asked a little angrily, "Why are you so flustered?"

Knowing that he offended the emperor, Han Xuan respectfully replied, "Outside the gate of Zhicheng on the west side, Da Sima is going to kill Hou Yushi!"

what!
Hearing these words, the copper bowl in Liu Xie's hand slammed, and all the millet in the bowl fell to the ground, but the big rooster jumped over, pecking happily.

"Why did Da Sima kill Hou Wen?" Liu Xie asked hastily. It can be seen from this that our emperor is still very concerned about this imperial servant.

"The villain doesn't know the specific situation." Xiao Huangmen shook his head.

"Quick, change my clothes!"

Liu Xie got up and gave orders in an uncompromising tone.

In a moment, the red ink-colored emperor's uniform was added to Liu Xie.

After hearing the news, the Shangshu made Xu Jiu and the Son of Heaven bump into each other. After saluting, Xu Jiu asked, "Your Majesty, where are you going?"

In desperation, Liu Xie didn't care too much, and immediately said: "Of course I went straight to the city gate. Do you want me to watch Hou Yushi die under Lu Bu's knife? I expect that I will go to intercede in person, everyone Sima should give me a little face."

Hearing this, Xu Jiu showed a little disappointment on his face, and tried to persuade him: "Your Majesty, why don't you understand! Da Sima has made it clear that he wants to serve as a royal servant, even if you ask yourself, you may not be able to do it." .”

"Hou Wen is my censor. Even if he made a mistake, he should first receive my instructions before disposing of it. Lu Bu dared to punish him privately, but he didn't take the emperor seriously!"

Liu Xie argued hard, his face became more angry, and he didn't listen to Xu Jiu's advice at all, as if there was a smell of gunpowder in the air.

The emperor defended Hou Wen so much, Xu Jiu not only lamented his misfortune, but also sighed in his heart, that Hou Wen was just a villain who flattered and flattered, and won the emperor's trust by flattery.

Liu Xie was young and couldn't see through many things.

It doesn't mean that those who say it nicely, but those who slap their chests must be good people. Many officials loyal to the Han Dynasty are trying their best to wait for the opportunity to overthrow Lu Bu.

But these words, Xu Jiu can't tell the emperor clearly.

Once it is said, with the dexterity of Lu Bu's news, it is bound to usher in a new round of reshuffle.

Youdao is on the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore and sleep.

How could Lu Bu let a group of people who wanted to murder him ignore him?

"Your Majesty isn't afraid to push Lu Bu into a hurry to do what Dong Zhuo did back then?" Xu Jiu used his trump card, if the emperor insisted on confronting Lu Bu, with Lu Bu's current status and strength, it is not impossible.

Hearing these words, Liu Xie turned off the fire in an instant, and remained silent for a long time before he was unable to ask: "Then tell me, what should I do!"

Seeing that the Son of Heaven changed his attitude, Xu Jiu said in his heart, "Young children can be taught", and advised the Son of Heaven: "The current opportunity should not confront Lu Bu head-on. What Your Majesty has to do is to follow the trend and endure the calm for a while."

Although Liu Xie doesn't like the word "forbearance" very much, but now that the power of the court and the central government is all in the hands of Lu Bu, he has nothing to do.

The open space outside Zhicheng Gate was filled with refugees watching the execution.

For the censor in the middle who was kneeling on the ground, the common people showed no mercy, and many people even secretly spit on him.

The execution was imminent, and Hou Wen, who was unwilling to die, was struggling for the last time, crying out for injustice over and over again.

"His Majesty is here!"

At this time, a loud and clear communication sounded from the city gate.

Two rows of Habayashi soldiers cleared the way on horseback, and the luan chariot pulled by six horses slowly appeared in people's sight.

When the emperor arrived, the common people knelt down on the ground, and Lu Bu also bowed and cupped his fists, standing still on the spot, thinking about the emperor's intention for coming here.

Only Hou Wen was extremely happy, as if he had grasped the straw after falling into the water.

"Hahaha, Your Majesty has come to save me!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the minister is here!"

Hou Wen shouted excitedly, if not for the soldiers pressing down on his shoulders, he would have jumped up and waved his hands.

Lu Bu stepped forward, clasped his fists in salute, and asked, "Your Majesty is not resting in the palace, why are you here?"

"Oh? Da Sima is here too?"

Liu Xie pretended not to know, and then replied: "I just received impeachment, saying that the imperial servant Hou Wen was dereliction of duty and sabotage, so I came here specially to inspect."

"Your Majesty is wise, Hou Wen used his position to enrich his own pockets, embezzled and hoarded food for disaster relief, it is a heinous crime! I am planning to behead him to outrage the common people."

Lu Bu spoke with full confidence, and his words also conveyed a message to Liu Xie, that is, regardless of Liu Xie's intentions for coming here, Hou Wen is definitely going to kill him today.

"Do you have any witnesses?"

"The people present are all witnesses."

"Is it true that Shi Yushi must be killed?"

"It must be killed!"

Unable to hear the conversation between the emperor and Lu Bu, Hou Wen shouted again: "Your Majesty, save me!"
