Chapter 56 When a Counter-Espionage Plan Meets a Traitor

For the people in Luoyang City, the hard days of war and chaos are over: after Yuan Shu entered the capital, both Jiang Cheng and Cao Cao restrained their men and did not disturb the people in the city.

The same was true for Yuan Shu, who wanted to become emperor.

He's just stupid, not bad.

He does not oppress the common people.

However, the nobles in Luoyang City, as well as many ministers and their merchant brothers, were in trouble - after Jiang Cheng gave the order, Li Ru led the team, Jia Xu accompanied him, and Dian Wei led the troops.

They went from house to house, looting gold, silver, treasures, and food.

Only those who are particularly wealthy.

"Lord Yuan is about to ascend the throne. To ensure everything is stable, all the food and money must be deposited into the national treasury. After the enthronement, they will be distributed uniformly!" Li Ru said: "Those who support Lord Yuan can get double the money back, and those who don't will get nothing!"

Under the banner of Yuan Shao, he began to plunder.

How far can you search?
The king's uncle Dong Cheng was buried under an old locust tree in the backyard. Three feet deep, all the gold, silver and jewelry were dug out.

It can be described as "digging three feet into the ground"!
"This is outrageous! This is really outrageous! I'm going to find Yuan Shu!" Dong Cheng roared.

However, when he really found Yuan Shu, he was thrown directly into a death cell - Yuan Shu didn't care about right or wrong, he only knew that the other party was Liu Xie's uncle and his enemy.

What happened to Jiang Cheng robbing him?
Reasonable.

"It's too much, really too much. Does that thief Yuan still have any shame? Those Yan bandits, do they have any scruples at all?" Situ Wang Yun was furious.

But soon, his eyes rolled and he came up with a clever plan.

"I heard that Jiang Cheng is lustful, and Yuan Shu is also lustful. If I let Diao Chan seduce Jiang Cheng first and then offer her to Yuan Shu, what will Jiang Cheng do?" Wang Yun thought.

At this time, everyone had already searched Wang Situ's mansion.

Due to the noble status of the "Three Dukes", ordinary people could not suppress them, so Jiang Cheng came in person this time.

Of course, it's still for revenge.

Jiang Cheng could never forget what this old man did in Xiyuan that day.

"General..."

In the beauty trap arrangement, Diao Chan took the initiative and successfully attracted Jiang Cheng's attention.

He also made an exception and spared Wang Yun's wealth.

"Lust can blind one's mind. Just wait, I will offer Diao Chan to Yuan Shu. Then either you or Yuan Shu will die!" Wang Yun thought to himself and began to plan the follow-up.

First, he wanted to reveal to Jiang Cheng that Diao Chan wanted to be his concubine.

Secretly promised Diao Chan to him.

Then, Diao Chan was sent up in the name of selecting a concubine for the future emperor.

This was done to alienate Jiang Cheng and Yuan Shao.

However, when Diao Chan entered the palace to serve Yuan Shu with trepidation, she met Jiang Cheng instead. Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "You used the counter-espionage strategy well. But the question is, will it work to alienate a traitor?"

……

The night before the coronation ceremony, Jiang Cheng led his men to loot the last aristocratic estate - the imperial palace, and even dismantled and moved the golden dragon throne away.

The "yellow jade dragon bed" that had been passed down in the Han Dynasty for four hundred years was not spared.

Not only did he move away, but he also let Diao Chan experience the feeling of sleeping on the dragon bed, except that the person she slept with was not the emperor.

"Load all the treasure onto the truck and take it away!"

……

At the same time, on the other side, Cao Cao led his troops to find Wang Yun.

"How foolish! Why didn't you consult with me before you used sorcery to plot against Jiang Cheng?" Cao Cao glared at him and said, "Can you easily plot against such a person?"

This made Wang Yun confused.

"What happened?"

"Jiang Cheng saw through your plan, and he turned the tables on you and spared your Wang family. He also kidnapped your niece Diao Chan and claimed to be the nephew-in-law of the Wang family!" Cao Cao said.

Wang Yun did not think this was a bad thing.

"Is that okay?" "What if Jiang Cheng looted the imperial palace, took away 90% of Luoyang's wealth, and left the city and headed straight for Taihang Mountain? Do you still think it's okay?" Cao Cao said.

After hearing this, Wang Yun was stunned for a moment.

"How dare he?"

As a result, Jiang Cheng deliberately let Wang Yun go and married Diao Chan as his concubine...this is big trouble!

"Your Wang family is finished, no one can save you!" Cao Cao said, "But if you are willing, Wang Situ, you can write me a blood letter. I can use it to save the emperor and the officials in the court who are still loyal to the Han Dynasty. Are you willing?"

Hearing this, Wang Yun looked at Cao Cao.

He nodded without hesitation and said, "I am willing to serve the emperor loyally!"

Human nature is complex.

When dealing with Jiang Cheng, he was an out-and-out villain. Wang Yun, who came from a noble family, never cared about the lives of the people and was quite corrupt.

But unfortunately, he is a loyal minister.

Willing to die for the emperor!
"The Han will remember you, Wang Yun!"

After writing in blood, Cao Cao bowed and saluted, then drew his sword and chopped off Wang Yun's head, and ordered: "No one in the Wang family will be spared!"

On the other hand, when Yuan Shu learned that Jiang Cheng had taken the treasure out of the city, his first thought was what the other party was going to do.

"Did they bury him outside the city?"

Until the old minister Yan Xiang reminded: "My lord, he is trying to escape!"

Yuan Shu suddenly realized.

Immediately, he revealed an angry look and said, "How unreasonable!"

After saying that, he was about to lead people to chase after them personally.

But the next moment, a treacherous minister suggested: "My lord, ascending the throne is the most important thing!"

Yuan Shu suddenly lost consciousness.

Yan Xiang looked worried and said hurriedly, "My Lord, you cannot ascend the throne! Only with Jiang Cheng's help can you be legitimate. Now that he has escaped, we must make long-term plans!"

In this era, we still need to abide by some legal principles.

Jiang Cheng was recognized by Emperor Ling as the only person qualified to change the emperor.

That was because of the defeat and the compromise with the Han Dynasty.

But now Jiang Cheng has run away. Without him and the righteousness of the "Saint Lord Shennong", who would still recognize Yuan Shao? Without the support of Jiang Cheng's Taiping Dao, Yuan Shu, who was once praised to the sky, would also fall miserably.

But, Yan Xiang can see through this truth, can others?

Can Yuan Shu, who has already lost his mind, do it?

"Are you an accomplice of Jiang Cheng? Come, arrest Yan Xiang!" Yuan Shu glared and said, "And that Wang Yun, he is also an accomplice of Jiang Cheng, I will kill all his clans!"

After saying that, he was still not satisfied and looked at Sun Jian again.

Sun Jian understood immediately.

He said, "Your Majesty, please ascend the throne. I will go after Jiang Cheng and recover his head and all his money!"

Yuan Shu was very satisfied with this and said, "Go quickly and come back soon!"

After these words were spoken, Li Ye could no longer sit still.

"Sun Jian is untrustworthy!"

Then, Li Ye was also captured.

Yuan Shu was so confused that he could not stand any opposition at this time, which made all the ministers shake their heads. Cao Cao smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I have killed Wang Yun's entire family!"

This made Yuan Shu stunned.

"After Your Majesty ascends the throne, I suggest that all the opposing ministers, including Liu Xie, be secretly sent to the tomb of Emperor Ling and beheaded to report to the heavens!" said Cao Cao.

This proposal won Yuan Shu's heart.

He immediately said, “Wait until the ceremony is over, and then you can do it yourself!”
