Chapter 263
A day later, the news basically spread.

Three days later, the news spread widely.

But did unrest happen?

No!

Li Yao looked up to these people. He didn't get the support of the army or the generals. He only relied on some domestic slaves, holding wooden sticks as weapons. It really took courage to rebel.

Among the officials, Huangfusong, the only one with military merit and ability, directly thanked guests behind closed doors. It was not easy to survive until now, and he really didn't want to be involved in the battle again.

But the memorials like snowflakes were sent to Chang'an from the surrounding counties and towns, but they were not sent to the emperor, but to Li Yao.

General Wei's mansion!

Li Yao casually flipped through the pages, feeling scoffed, it was the same thing, everyone said Yang Biao, he was Yang Ci's son, Yang Bing's grandson, Yang Zhenzhi's great-great-grandson, four generations and three fathers, a famous family, and the cultural context of the world.

It is not good for the court, not good for the country, I hope Li Yao's subordinates will be merciful and let this loyal and loyal minister go.

They came here to intercede, and the methods they used were old-fashioned, moral kidnapping, using the court, using the country, using righteousness, to kidnap and threaten, but as long as they are not moral, they will not be kidnapped or threatened.

Li Yao didn't like this, he was already annoyed, if he couldn't teach them a lesson, he really thought he was a good person.

Good people will be pointed at with guns, but bad people will be pointed at with guns.

He just sits at home, now Li Yao doesn't need to fight on the front line, he just needs to live well, and the people below have a backbone, so they will naturally be loyal to their duties and do things seriously.

At this time, Li Rongcheng came back. After seeing Li Yao, he first saluted and then said in surprise:

"General, Hu Qi in the army intercepted a batch of letters. It was You Fufeng Wang Hong who contacted Zuo Fengyi and Song Yi, and wanted to make an agreement to raise troops together!"

Li Yao took the letter, read it all, and said with a sneer:
"This Wang Hong has some backbone, but since this person wants to rebel, he can't stay here. Let Li Jue, Guo Si... wait, don't go..."

After much deliberation, Li Yao came up with an idea, maybe he can achieve his goal without a single soldier:

"That boy who came yesterday, Yang Xiu, is still standing outside the mansion, not getting a drop of rice or water?"

After the voice fell, some soldiers went out to check, but came back after a while and said:

"General, still there!"

Li Yao nodded and said:

"Then let him in!"

Yang Xiu, the son of Yang Biao, was a smart man who was finally smarted to death by himself. Now Yang Biao was imprisoned by Li Yao. After Yang Xiu learned about it, he immediately came to rescue him from Huayin's home.

He is 17 years old and has not yet become an official. Want to rescue him?What to use to rescue!

There was no other way, so he went outside the general's mansion and asked Li Yao to see him. He could see Li Yao whenever he wanted, and then he claimed to be on a hunger strike, and if Li Yao didn't see him, he would not leave.

At that time, Li Yao had already made up his mind that he wanted to take Yang Biao's sword and frighten the officials, so when Yang Xiu came, he was too lazy to see him.

Moreover, this Yang Xiu was so smart that he could see through Cao Cao's thoughts, which made Li Yao struggle whether to accept him or not.

In fact, Li Yao didn't know that this Yang Xiu was indeed smart, but the cause of his death was still not smart enough. He was very smart and was on good terms with Cao Zhi.

However, Cao Cao's identified successor, after Cao Ang's death, was Cao Pi. Such a smart person who was good to Cao Zhi and unfavorable to Cao Pi naturally had to be eliminated in advance, and eventually died of standing on the wrong team.

After a while, Yang Xiu came in front of Li Yao. He was 17 years old, just young. Although he didn't eat or drink for a day, apart from being a little weak, he didn't have much influence.

Seeing Li Yao and seeing that young face, Yang Xiu was quite shocked. He was only five or six years younger than him, but Li Yao was already well-known all over the world and held the power of life and death in the court.

Sure enough, it is necessary to become famous as early as possible. Only after becoming famous can he take power. Yang Xiu is extremely firm in his heart. As long as he can save Yang Biao, he will become famous with this feat. Whether it is out of filial piety, the world will look at him.

Then Yang Xiu saluted neither humble nor overbearing and said:

"Hua Yin Yang Xiu, meet the general!"

Li Yao didn't give him a good look, he looked indifferent, and said indifferently:

"You are the son of Yang Ni, and you dare to come to see me, so you are not afraid that I will kill you!"

Facing Li Yao, Yang Xiu's heart was full of pressure, but he maintained his dignity for the last time, without bowing his knees, and said calmly:
"The general can indeed kill me, but I came here to save my father, so naturally I am not afraid of death, and my father is not a traitor, he is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty."

Li Yao continued to exert pressure. Yang Xiu, who he wanted to suppress, bowed his head, and then came to give another hope, so he still sneered and said:

"A loyal minister of the Han Dynasty? But how did I get the news that he conspired to contact the rebels in the Kanto region, colluded with the officials in private, and wanted to murder me, hold the emperor hostage, and usurp the throne for rebellion!"

Yang Xiu's eyes shrank when he heard this, and he cursed inwardly, this Li Yao not only wanted to kill their whole family, but also wanted to tarnish their Yang family's reputation, such a vicious heart, such a vicious method.

It's no wonder that the Yang family who served in the county were all controlled by the prefect's troops. If he hadn't come, there might be some news from Chang'an, and their Yang family would be wiped out.

At this moment, no matter how smart Yang Xiu is, when he looks at Li Yao again, he feels fear in his heart. This kind of unscrupulous person is the most dreadful person, and he can only make a compromise:
"This must be a slander, general. Our Yang family has always been loyal to the imperial court. My father may have misunderstood the general, but I respect the general. If there is no general, I am afraid that Chang'an will be in ruins. All the officials and the emperor will be wandering. In the future, our Yang family will definitely support the general, assist the emperor, and help the world!"

Hearing this, Li Yao nodded secretly in his heart, this Yang Xiu is quite knowledgeable, but how could he just let Yang Biao and the Yang family go on the basis of his one-sided words, so what kind of prestige does he have?

So Li Yao showed the letter to Yang Xiu, and waited for him to read it before saying:
"This Wang Hong is already preparing to collude with Song Yi, Zuo Fengyi, and You Fufeng, and make an agreement to rebel against you. It's all because of your father!"

After Yang Xiu finished reading, he understood in his heart that this was the first thing Li Yao asked him to do. He used the name and status of the Yang family to deal with Wang Hong. If he really did this, it might fall into the eyes of other aristocratic families, and the Yang family would be tied to Li Yao in the future.

But is there room for him to refuse?

He didn't have room to refuse, so he could only cup his hands and say:
"I also ask the general to report to His Majesty and prepare an imperial edict for Wang Hong to return to Beijing. I am willing to serve as an envoy. Only by bringing Wang Hong back can I prove my father's innocence!"
