I am not Yuan Shu

Chapter 172 Duan Ying informs
The person Wang Fu was planning to attack was none other than Liu Kui.

Liu Kui, the younger brother of Emperor Huan of Han, Liu Zhi, and King of Bohai.

Duan Xing was very surprised by this.

"The King of Bohai is plotting a rebellion. Do you want to interrogate and execute him?"

"Yes, Liu Kui must die."

Wang Fu whispered, "I didn't really want to do anything to him, but given the current situation, I have no choice but to do it. Moreover, this man is restless and still covets the throne. Zheng Sa and Dong Teng are left to you. They have no backers, so you just investigate and make sure you find out something. Do you understand?"

Duan Xing was startled, closed the bamboo slips, and looked incredulous.

"Are you going to... kill the clan leader?"

"If he doesn't die, we will all die."

Wang Fu said in a cold voice: "The Queen Mother passed away suddenly. The current emperor is not yet an adult. The country is in doubt and the throne is unstable. The dissent that was previously suppressed has shown signs of rising again. In this incident, we suspect that someone wants to harm the current emperor's throne.

Although Pingyuan King Liu Shuo is also the brother of the previous emperor, he has always behaved badly and has inherited his father's incense, so he is not a threat. Bohai King Liu Kui is the only threat. I am very worried that someone will use him to threaten the throne of the current emperor, so he must die. "

Duan Ying swallowed his saliva.

Although he was very manic, bloodthirsty and vulgar, he had no intention of treason.

Isn't it too crazy to openly plan to kill a prince?

"Could it be that the King of Bohai really has the intention to usurp the throne?"

"At this point, whether he has it or not, he must have it!"

Wang Fu said coldly: "The throne of the present emperor was secured by our generation. The present emperor trusted us and appointed us, so we were able to occupy high positions and hold power. If the present emperor were gone, the emperor would have his own ministers. What do you think would have happened to us?
You have worked so hard for us and offended so many people. Once the emperor and we are gone, what will happen to you and your family? You don't need me to remind you of this, right?"

Duan Xing felt a panic in his heart and swallowed again.

"That being said, he is the clan king after all. It is impossible to kill him without solid evidence of treason, right?"

"So what do you do?"

Wang Fu rolled his eyes at Duan Yu and said, "Everyone has been arranged for you. You just need to get the confession and go through the procedures. There will be no problem. This shouldn't be difficult, right? If you can't even do this, I have nothing to say."

Of course, Duan Xing was not incapable of doing even this. In his opinion, this kind of small matter was not a big deal at all. But the problem was...

Prince Zong, is it really that easy to kill?
"Right now, the public is furious. Without the Queen Mother, can we really kill a prince with only the Emperor? What should we do if we are blocked? What should we do if all the civil and military officials in the court oppose and want to protect the King of Bohai?"

"Treason is a serious crime. The emperor will punish rebels. Who dares to stop him?"

Wang Fu said sternly, "No matter what happens, no matter who tries to stop us, we killed Dou Wu, let alone a mere clan prince? Captain Duan, can you do it? Just tell me!"

Duan Ying lowered his head and thought about it.

"can."

"Okay, I'll give you three days to bring me a complete confession. I'll submit it to the emperor."

"it is good."

Duan Xing took the bamboo slips and returned to the Si Li Xiao Wei's Mansion. When he returned, Duan Wei came out to greet him and told him that two eunuchs had just been taken to the Si Li Xiao Wei's Mansion and were now imprisoned.

"Brother, what happened again? Why were eunuchs sent here?"

Duan Xing's face was solemn. He took out the bamboo slips and handed them to Duan Wei.

"See for yourself."

Duan Wei took the bamboo slips, opened it with a puzzled look, and then his face changed drastically after taking a look.

"King...King Bohai?"

"Well, they want to attack the King of Bohai and order me to torture these two eunuchs."

Duan Yu said slowly, "Zheng Sa, the eunuch, and Dong Teng, the eunuchs, are said to be on good terms with the King of Bohai. As eunuchs in the inner court, they actually made friends with princes from outside the vassal states. This is a big taboo. Similarly, it is also a big taboo for princes from outside the vassal states to make friends with eunuchs in the inner court. These two big taboos collided with each other. What do you think will be the result?"

Duan Wei put away the bamboo slips, his face looking solemn.

"This...this can't be true, can it?"

"The people have been sent here, how can it be fake?" Duan Ying sighed, shook his head and said, "I think there will be big changes and big events in Luoyang in the future. Now they dare to kill even a clan leader, I don't know what else they dare not do."

Duan Wei was silent for a while and suddenly remembered something.

"Brother, should we tell Yuan Shu about this news?"

Duan Xing thought about it, seemed a little undecided, and asked Duan Wei in turn.

"What do you say?"

"I?"

Duan Wei frowned and said, "Didn't you say that Yuan Shu doesn't trust us? If that's the case, there's no need to tell him, right? If he knew about such an important matter, it would probably cause trouble."

Duan Yu pondered for a moment, paced back and forth for a while, and slowly shook his head.

"No, you should tell him, Zhongming, take this bamboo slip to find Yuan Shu immediately and tell him about this."

"what?"

"He doesn't believe me, but I can't help but express it."

"What if Yuan interferes in this matter?"

"Isn't that good?"

Duan Yu said angrily: "Wang Fu wants to use me as a knife to get rid of a clan leader. If he succeeds, the biggest benefit will be to them, but I will have to bear the reputation of killing a clan leader. How can such a good thing happen in the world? Brothers, you and I must not do things to the extreme and leave no way out.

In the past, there was no other choice, but now, isn't there a ready-made choice? I still have to tell Yuan Shu. If he has a solution, that would be the best. Unless he also thinks it's okay to do so, then I have nothing to say."

Duan Wei thought about it and felt that what Duan Xing said made sense, so he rode away on his horse and quickly delivered the news to Yuan Shu.

When Yuan Shu heard the news, he was overjoyed.

Isn't this what he has always dreamed of?
Isn't this what he needs to win the game?
After reading it, he immediately asked Duan Wei.

"How many people know about this matter now?"

"There shouldn't be many. This was handed to my brother by Wang Fu himself."

Duan Wei responded, "Wang Fu asked my brother to find all the evidence of the collusion between the King of Bohai and the eunuchs in the palace within three days, and then give the evidence to Wang Fu, who will then submit a petition to the emperor, asking the emperor to sentence the King of Bohai to death and get rid of him as soon as possible."

Yuan Shu nodded and returned the bamboo slips to Duan Wei.

"Thank Captain Duan for me. This matter is very important. I will immediately consult with my father and uncle and will present the results of the discussion soon. Before that, Captain Duan, please continue to follow what Wang Fu said and see if the King of Bohai really has the intention of disloyalty."

"Here!"

Duan Wei left quickly.

After Yuan Shu got the accurate information, he did not delay. After arranging the matters in Liangzhuang, he hurried back to Luoyang City on horseback and told Yuan Feng and Yuan Wei about this matter in Yuan Mansion.

When Yuan Feng learned about this, his face changed drastically.

When Yuan Wei learned about this, he actually looked a little excited.

"The eunuchs are really going to take action against the King of Bohai! And they have actually found an excuse! In this way, as long as they can get confessions from Zheng Sa and Dong Teng, even if they are just tortured, and then submit a petition to the emperor, they will definitely have a good excuse to execute the King of Bohai!"

Yuan Feng looked nervous and said hurriedly, "They are going to take action so soon, but the Yuan family is not yet fully prepared. If they act smoothly, they will definitely be able to capture the King of Bohai in a month at most. There is only one month left, so time is still very tight!"

Yuan Wei doesn't think so.

"Brother, what can the eunuchs prepare for? We have already contacted King Bohai and have him under protection. We only need to send someone to inform King Bohai and escort him to Luoyang for protection. When King Bohai arrives, it will be time for us to depose the tyrant and punish the treacherous ministers!"

Yuan Feng frowned, looking very worried.

"Ci Yang, you think things are too simple. Not to mention that the Yuan family only has 3,000 garrisons in Luoyang, the most important thing is that the palace guards of Guanglu Xun and the Huben and Yulin armies are all under the control of the eunuchs. Even if we can control the Luoyang armory and the Luoyang city gate, it is hard to say whether we can take over the palace."

"The palace guards, the Tiger Guards, and the Yulin Army have not been in battle for a long time. It is uncertain how much combat power they have left."

Yuan Wei shook his head and said, "Among the five battalions of the most elite Northern Army, two are ours, two are on good terms with us and are somewhat disdainful of the eunuchs, and the remaining one is the eunuchs' confidants. When the incident occurs, we will directly eliminate them and seize their troops. Then, at least the Northern Army will not be our enemy. In this way, Luoyang City will be under our control!
How long can a mere palace hold out? Not to mention how many people in the palace garrison really obey the eunuchs, they may not be determined to be our enemies. Even if they are determined to be our enemies, how long can they hold out behind closed doors? In addition to the Luoyang garrison, we also have the death squads, and if that doesn't work, we still have the warriors under Shu!"

Yuan Wei pointed at Yuan Shu, then looked at Yuan Shu and asked, "Shu, is that right?"
