Mi Han

Chapter 389
When thousands of tigers responded to Liu Bei's voice outside the hall, the minister of Yizhou in the hall was instantly pale with fright.

"Wrath of the Son of Heaven, lay down millions of corpses, and bleed for thousands of miles."

Most of the ministers present have heard this sentence.

Even the ministers who have never heard this sentence, they have experienced such a scene back then.

In that year, Liu Bei's white hair was not so prosperous. In that year, many Yizhou families fell under the wrath of Liu Bei's king.

The bloody scene back then, even today, still has many ministers vividly in their minds.

Therefore, although Liu Bei looks older than in previous years, when he raised his long sword and shouted the word "Hu Ben", many Yizhou ministers in the hall subconsciously ignored the white hair on Liu Bei's head.

A chill of extreme fear emerged in their hearts.

Although the Son of Heaven is old, he can still draw his sword.

After realizing this, more Yizhou ministers fell to their knees.

They all cried and begged Liu Bei to investigate clearly.

It's just that even if there are more Yizhou ministers crying in the hall, it will not slow down the action of Huben outside the hall.

Thousands of tigers will only obey Liu Bei's call at this moment.

Just a moment after thousands of tigers responded, groups of tigers holding sharp knives and wearing fine armor rushed straight into the hall under the leadership of Mi Wei.

After a while, the entire Mingde Hall was surrounded by bright and cold sword lights.

And when this scene happened, the cries and begging for mercy in the whole hall became louder and louder.

The bursts of loud cries and begging for mercy rose from the sky, as if they were about to topple the roof of Mingde Hall.

Seeing those Yizhou ministers who were full of national righteousness just now, like vicious dogs biting people, wagging their tails and begging for mercy when they were in danger, the anger in Liu Bei's heart became more and more intense.

This is the "public righteousness" of his big man!
Liu Bei didn't understand, he had already given them a chance back then, but why didn't they cherish it.

Liu Bei didn't understand even more why he had never been stingy with giving them status, honor, gold and silver, but why they were still not satisfied.

The reason why Liu Bei convened this grand court meeting was that he realized that the recent turmoil in the Han Dynasty was not only aimed at Mi Yang, but also an alternative challenge to his rule launched by many Yizhou ministers after recuperating for several years.

So in fact, long before the official convening of this great court meeting, Liu Bei had thought about drawing his sword to deter them.

What he didn't expect was that those Yizhou aristocratic families had been corrupted to such an extent.

Corrupted to the point where I can no longer expect anything from them.

That being the case, Liu Bei is not a person who would hesitate.

Liu Bei looked at many ministers of Yizhou who were kneeling on the ground, and he looked at Mi Wei and ordered loudly:

"All the ministers whose native place belongs to Yizhou are taken away and sent to prison pending trial."

Although Mi Zhu just read Qiao Yu's criminal evidence just now, there are still many criminal evidences of Yizhou ministers that have not been clearly stated and have not been reviewed.

But looking at the extremely panicked performance of many Yizhou ministers, it can be seen that most of the Yizhou ministers have ghosts in their hearts.

In this case, Liu Bei could only temporarily imprison all Yizhou ministers as a precaution.

After the follow-up Ting Wei has reviewed all the criminal evidence, he will convict the ministers of Yizhou one by one. If there are really innocent ministers of Yizhou who are imprisoned, they will be released.

What's more, even if there is no other evidence of crime, the Yizhou family pays attention to the marriage of one generation and the same spirit.

Given the ironclad evidence of the Qiao family's treason in hand, are you afraid that the other Yizhou family will not be able to get criminal evidence under the interrogation?

And when Liu Bei's order came out, the minister of Yizhou, who was closer to Liu Bei, was so frightened that he wanted to walk up to Liu Bei and beg for mercy after hearing the order.

It's just that Mi Wei will not be polite in the face of these bold ministers of Yizhou.

Although Mi Yang is not his younger brother, only Mi Wei and Mi Yang are left in the second generation of the Mi family.

In addition, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang have a very good relationship, so Mi Wei loves Mi Yang as a younger brother.

In the past days, these Yizhou ministers slandered Mi Yang in every possible way, which had already filled Mi Wei's stomach with anger.

Seeing that the time has come to rectify these Yizhou aristocratic families, how could Mi Wei give up this great opportunity?

So after seeing the actions of those Yizhou ministers, Mi Wei immediately directed a part of Huben to take those Yizhou ministers away first.

When Huben stepped forward to take away those Yizhou ministers, there were still several Yizhou ministers who couldn't understand the situation and wanted to resist.

Facing these foolish Yizhou ministers, Mi Weike has no habit of getting used to their faults.

Under Mi Wei's hint, Hu Ben, who was in charge of escorting away those Yizhou ministers, immediately raised his scabbard and hit them hard on the back several times.

Under the severe pain, those ministers of Yizhou finally gave up struggling, and obediently let the tiger behind them take them away.

It’s just that not only these Yizhou ministers showed signs of resistance in the hall, but many Yizhou ministers also felt that they were from the rich and powerful Guan family, and they were in high positions, so facing Huben who came forward to take them away, they said very uncooperative.

How can the children of the aristocratic family be humiliated by the hands of the disciples?
But after seeing this phenomenon, Liu Bei's face turned cold before Mi Wei could issue an order, and he ordered sharply to the many tigers in the hall:
"Everyone is waiting to die, why doubt it?

If there is any resistance, beheaded on the spot! "

When Liu Bei's order was heard by many tigers, all the tigers were shocked, and the movements of their hands became rude in an instant.

There are even many tigers who no longer use scabbards to face those Yizhou ministers, but use blades.

After hearing these words, many Yizhou ministers were instantly drained of their energy.

Yizhou ministers collapsed to the ground like dead dogs, allowing Huben to drag them away from the hall floor one by one.

Under the threat of shoot-to-kill, the Huben dragged many Yizhou ministers out of the hall at a greatly accelerated pace.

Not long after, the hall became empty in an instant, and the loud and noisy sounds in the hall, and the annoying cries and begging for mercy disappeared in an instant.

It's just that in the main hall, there is still a Yizhou minister who has not been dragged away, and that person is Qiao Yu.

The reason why Qiao Yu was not dragged out of the hall by the tigers was not because the tigers didn't see him.

It's just because among the many Yizhou ministers, he is the only one who has been proven to have a conspiracy.

Other Yizhou ministers still need to be dragged away and sent to prison to await trial, but Qiao Yu does not need this step.

What awaits him is not judgment, but guilt.

When the other Yizhou ministers were dragged away, everyone in the hall focused on Qiao Yu, even Liu Bei.

Looking at Qiao Yu, who was ashamed, Liu Bei's face clearly showed disgust.

Liu Bei originally wanted to directly issue an order to exterminate Qiao Yu's clan, but his idea was stopped by Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang stepped forward and said to Liu Bei, "Your Majesty, if you eliminate one easy thing, you will eliminate all difficulties."

After hearing Zhuge Liang's suggestion, Liu Bei immediately realized what Zhuge Liang meant.

It is completely enough to exterminate the Qiao family of Brazil based on the current criminal evidence, but Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang painstakingly planned this grand court meeting, not just targeting one family.

What the two monarchs and ministers want is that with the help of this great dynasty, the entire Yizhou family will suffer a heavy blow.

To achieve such a goal, the Qiao clan in Brazil cannot be exterminated temporarily.

Because although the box Mi Zhu brought contained many criminal evidences of the Yizhou family, those criminal evidences had not yet been systematically sorted out.

In this case, Zhuge Liang didn't know which Yizhou aristocratic families had criminal evidence.

It is also unclear whether the crimes committed by the Yizhou family who have been given evidence of crimes can beat them to the ground.

So for the time being, Qiao Yu cannot be exterminated. As long as Liu Bei does not issue an order to exterminate Qiao Yu in Brazil, Qiao Yu will still have expectations in his heart.

With expectations, Zhuge Liang will then be able to take advantage of the Brazilian Qiao family, and then assist the criminal evidence brought by Mi Zhu, so as to disintegrate the power of the entire Yizhou family step by step.

After understanding the meaning of Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei immediately changed his mind.

Liu Bei ordered in front of all the officials: "Qiao Yu conspired against him, and he will be sent to prison to be executed."

After speaking of this order, Liu Bei then issued another order: "Order Hu Ben to go to the Qiao Mansion to arrest a group of Qiao clan members, and send them all to jail pending trial."

Qiao Yu, who collapsed to the ground, knew that he was doomed, so when he heard Liu Bei's first order, he didn't react.

But when he heard that Liu Bei wanted to attack the entire Qiao clan, panic immediately appeared on his face.

In desperation, he wanted to plead with Liu Bei, but before he could utter the words of pleading, he was forcefully dragged out of the hall by Huben behind him.

After Mi Wei received Liu Bei's order, he immediately led a group of tigers out of the hall and rushed towards the palace gate.

After temporarily dealing with the affairs of the Minister of Yizhou, Liu Bei walked up to Liu Ba step by step with a long sword in his hand.

If it is said that the Yizhou minister's treasonous act made Liu Bei feel angry, then Liu Ba's act of colluding with them made Liu Bei feel a little sad.

Liu Bei knew that Liu Ba had never been truly loyal to him.

It's just that he thinks he has great faith in Liu Ba and has given Liu Ba ample opportunities to display his talents. He doesn't understand why Liu Ba is obsessed with it and never regrets it.

If it weren't for Liu Ba's help today, the Yizhou family would not have received the support of so many people in the beginning.

When Liu Ba saw Liu Bei approaching him with his sword raised, a look of fear quickly appeared on his face.

It's just that he, who has a high personality, quickly regained his composure.

When he made that choice that day, he had already thought about what would happen if he failed.

The big deal is death.

Liu Ba felt that he had no shame in dying for the belief in his heart.

Before and after Liu Bei came to Liu Ba, he suppressed his anger and asked Liu Ba: "I want to order the world, but Zichu is in chaos. What I did today made me sad. Is it because of the division of people and ministers?"

All the officials in the hall heard the anger and sadness from Liu Bei's words.

Zhuge Liang looked at Liu Bei and Liu Ba, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

He persuaded Liu Ba.

Facing Liu Bei's accusation, Liu Ba just said: "Submission to the emperor is small loyalty, protection of the country is great loyalty, foreign relatives' dictatorship, and the way of taking disaster, what I do today is out of a public heart."

But it was fine if Liu Ba didn't say these words, but when he said these words, Liu Bei became even more angry.

"The dictatorship of foreign relatives may be a way to bring disaster, but you don't see Huo Huo, the guard of filial piety!
If a minister has two minds, even if he is not a foreign relative, he can disrupt the country, just like those rebellious ministers today.

If a subject is dedicated to serving the country, even if he is a foreign relative, he can go up to the monarch and defend the people, just like today's Weiwei.

How can everything be too worrying and jealous just because of status?
It's not that I don't understand the way of Meng De, it's just that I don't bother to do it!
You are a clan member of the Han Dynasty, but you cannot share the same path with me. I feel very disappointed. "

After saying these words, Liu Bei raised the long sword in his hand, and slashed at Liu Bad's head with one sword.

The sword moves with the wind, everyone knows that Liu Bei is a master of swordsmanship, if Liu Bei wants to take Liu Ba's life within such a short distance, Liu Ba will definitely not be able to avoid it.

But just when everyone thought that Liu Bei was about to splatter blood five steps in front of him, to everyone's surprise, when the sword light flashed by, what Liu Bei cut off was the hat on Liu Ba's head.

When Liu Bei chopped off the crown hat that symbolized official position, Liu Ba's long hair fell loose instantly, and he looked extremely embarrassed.

"Shang Shuling Liu Ba has an old illness and is unable to keep track of events, so I will remove Liu Ba from the post of Shang Shuling."

"From now on, you should stay at home and take care of your heart disease."

Liu Bei's first sentence is for the world to hear, and the second sentence is his warning to Liu Ba.

If it were Cao Cao or Sun Quan, Liu Ba's behavior might be a capital offense.

It's just that Liu Bei is different. He is a person who knows how to be grateful. Liu Ba has contributed a lot to the great man's current national strength.

Besides, Liu Ba was still a clan member of the Han Dynasty.

So even though he knew that Liu Ba was not loyal to him, and even though Liu Ba violated the big taboo between monarchs and ministers, Liu Bei finally decided to spare Liu Ba's life.

But Liu Ba saw that Liu Bei only relegated him, but did not take his life. When he was a little surprised, he became distraught.

Under Liu Bei's forgiveness, Liu Ba with disheveled hair walked towards the outside of the hall step by step, and soon his lonely figure disappeared among the crowd in the hall.

After Liu Bei finished handling Liu Ba's affairs, Zhuge Liang resigned from Liu Bei, and then led many officials to leave the hall.

With such a shocking change in Dahan today, there are many things that need to be done in time to clean up the aftermath.

After the people in the hall had left, Mi Zhu looked at Liu Bei who was slowly walking towards him with a smile on his face. He seemed to have seen the scene when he and Liu Bei first met.

That year, Cao Cao slaughtered Xu, Xuzhou Mu Taoqian asked for help everywhere, but no one came to rescue him.

That year Liu Bei was still a small prime minister, but that's how he led [-] soldiers and galloped thousands of miles to Xuzhou to guard the gate of life for the people of Xuzhou.

At that time, he was completely unequal to Cao Cao in terms of strength, but he did not have the slightest fear. What was he doing?

What he did back then is what he is doing today.

Thinking of this, Mi Zhu also had a smile on his face.

It's nice that nothing has changed in decades.

But just when Liu Bei was about to walk in front of Mi Zhu, Mi Zhu, who could no longer support his body, fell straight down under Liu Bei's flustered eyes.

"Zhu is willing to swear that he will do everything in his power to help the envoy in the future."

This is an oath made by a young man in front of Liu Bei decades ago.

Liu Bei has not changed, and neither has he.
