To the east of the city, there is a quiet minister's mansion.
The mansion occupies a very large area, and it is a quiet place where people come and go during the day.
At the door, two huge stone lions highlight the height of the lintel of the mansion.
The light of fire appeared at the door of the minister's mansion, and a group of majestic soldiers like wolves and tigers were holding torches, bows and arrows, and they were full of murderous intent.
"Surround the house quickly and don't let anyone go!"
The leading general was a young man. He snorted coldly, and his two young generals who had been waiting for a long time stepped forward and suddenly kicked the minister's front door.
The strength of the two young generals reached several thousand kilograms. With their energy and blood surging, they violently attacked and kicked down the heavy wooden door.
Then the leading young general, wearing heavy armor and holding an autumn water knife, led the people and rushed in.
"Who? How brave?"
"Do you know where this is? You dare to come to Shangshu Mansion to act wild. What are you going to do?"
The huge movement woke up everyone in the Shangshu Mansion from their sleep. A fat old man in brocade clothes, leading several fierce guards, aggressively met the soldiers who broke into the manor.
"Who gave you the courage? Why don't you retreat quickly?"
"You dare to be disrespectful to Cen, the minister of the Ministry of Industry. After tomorrow, I will report it to the court and punish you!"
The fat old man was the steward of the Shangshu Mansion. Although the guards and servants were frightened by such an incident, as a steward, he was naturally more powerful than ordinary people. At this time, he even rushed forward, pointing at Ding Yan's nose and yelling curses.
"Qiang!"
Suddenly, a white light flashed.
The fat old man's hole suddenly enlarged, and a red line appeared on his neck. He stretched out his hand to cover his neck in fear, but his neck was like a flood that had opened, and bright red blood flowed all over the floor.
boom!
He fell to the ground suddenly, his body twitched twice, and then there was no sound again.
"Kill people, kill people!"
"The Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division started killing people!"
The guards, who had looked a little fierce at first, all looked frightened. Some servants screamed in shock and their legs went weak, and they almost knelt down in front of Ding Yan.
Ding Yan's cold and fierce eyes scanned the entire audience, and no one in the house dared to look at him.
"Caught!"
At this time, there was a noise from the backyard of the mansion. Several tiger and wolf soldiers were seen grabbing a thin old man and dragging him out from behind. There were three beautiful concubines beside the old man who were only wearing tulle. Although each of them was
She looked panicked, but she still couldn't hide her graceful figure and her charm.
"Who are you? Why did you break into my mansion without permission?"
The thin old man seemed to have bruised his face, his clothes were stained with blood, his hair was messy, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
His eyes glanced at the fat steward lying in a pool of blood, and he couldn't help but shrink slightly.
Ding Yandan said calmly: "Ding was ordered by the general to kill the rebels. Lord Cen, don't you know why we are here?"
The old man furrowed his brows and scolded: "That's nonsense. Cen is loyal to the court and has no second thoughts. How could he be a rebel? Mr. Ding is young and promising. Don't misunderstand the slander and embark on a path of no return."
."
Ding Yan sneered again and again: "Master Cen, for this reason, why are you still pretending?"
However, Cen Daming, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, gritted his teeth and denied: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, I want to see the general, please let me go to see the general!"
At this time, a group of soldiers who had broken into the inner house arrested all the people in the Cen mansion, and then a young general in green armor hurriedly came to Ding Yan.
"Sir, I found a letter from the rebel party."
The young general directly lifted the letter and handed it to Ding Yan.
Ding Yan glanced at Cen Daming and saw that the Minister of the Ministry of Industry's expression finally changed after seeing the letter. Although there were strong Huben sergeants on both sides supporting him, his legs and feet seemed to soften, and his face
Cold sweat.
Ding Yan opened the letter and saw that above it was Cen Daming communicating with Li Rang and others.
Cen Daming's lips trembled slightly: "I just discussed with Brother Li about going on an outing outside the city in a few days. Isn't this okay?"
Ding Yan glanced at Cen Daming and said quietly: "Li Rang summoned the rebels tonight with the intention of harming the general. You said you and Li Rang agreed on where to go for an outing?"
Cen Daming's face changed drastically, and half of his body went limp: "You... Li Rang, how could you do this?"
Ding Yan was too lazy to talk to him anymore. At the same time, some other soldiers also discovered evidence of collusion between the rebellious parties, including some letters exchanged, a large amount of gold and silver transported to each other, an unusual account book, etc.
"take away!"
Ding Yan gave the order, and the entire Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Industry burst into tears.
The soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Department drove everyone out of the house. In the light of the fire, the indifferent soldiers were made even more ferocious.
------------------
"kill!
"
Cao Su was ruthless. After Li Rang was killed personally, he no longer stayed behind. He directly slapped one by one and killed the rebellious ministers who had not escaped. Then Cao Su found the commander of the Five Cities Army and Horses Division and ordered
Search for the rebels in Shendu.
In the capital of the gods, flames soared into the sky, and the solemn-looking soldiers of the Five Cities Army and Horse Division, wearing heavy iron armor, captured all the rebellious clans under Cao Su's control one by one.
During this process, there were also some conflicts and bloodshed.
In front of the Situ Mansion, a forest of iron armor and swords surrounded the entire Situ Mansion.
Feng Yuchan's mansion has not expanded, but he is a military commander himself, and the number of soldiers in the mansion is more and more elite than that of ordinary ministers' mansions. Early in the morning, he discovered that someone was besieging the mansion, and soon there were people on the walls of the mansion.
He bent his bow and nocked an arrow, shot an arrow, and landed in front of the soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, stopping their advance.
There were many deaths that night, and I don’t know how many people died.
Qiu Bai, one of the commanders of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, was also a good friend of Cao Su in the capital city before. This time he was in a high position and was loyal to Cao Su.
He quietly waited for Cao Su's arrival and held his troops still for the time being.
Although Cao Su issued a death order, Situ was still the Third Duke, and Feng Yuchan had a high prestige in the army before. There were also many people in the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Department in Shendu who were former disciples and former officials of Feng Yuchan.
Qiu Bai's temperament was more calm than in the early years. He surrounded and refused to attack. The solemn atmosphere made the entire Situ Mansion feel even more desperate.
A solemn aura lingered inside the mansion, and outside the mansion were countless bows and arrows aimed at the mansion, and fierce fire surrounded the mansion.
"Where is Cao Su?"
Inside the mansion, Feng Yuchan spoke loudly.
Outside the mansion, Qiu Bai's eyes flashed, he was dissatisfied that Feng Yuchan called the general by his first name, he suppressed his anger and refused to talk to Feng Yuchan.
Feng Yuchan yelled angrily: "Isn't the Five Cities Army Guarding the Divine Capital? Why are you here to besiege the old man's residence today? Is there any justice in this? Is there any king's law? What do you think of the imperial court?"
He spoke louder and louder, and some soldiers in the Five Cities Army and Horses Division were a little confused by what Feng Yuchan said.
Yes, what do they mean by besieging Situ Mansion now?
Lord Situ is a rare and famous general in the world, and he has made great contributions to the imperial court and the city of God. It makes no sense to lead people to surround Situ's mansion in the middle of the night, right? Is it because the Lord himself wants to do this?
impossible?
The soldiers looked at each other in confusion. Qiu Bai noticed that the morale of the soldiers was unstable and shouted: "This is the general's order. No one can act rashly without a military order!"
After all, Qiu Bai had been in charge of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division for half a year and had gradually established some prestige.
After hearing Qiu Bai's scolding, everyone was convinced that it was the general's military order, so they all felt relieved and were not instigated by Feng Yuchan.
At this time, dozens of riders came galloping down the long street.
"The general has arrived!"
Hearing a loud shout, Cao Su personally led a group of soldiers to the outside of Situ's mansion.
When Qiu Bai saw this, he immediately rolled down from his horse.
The soldiers of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division also knelt on one knee and saluted the general.
Cao Su didn't look at the crowd and stopped in front of Qiu Bai.
"What's going on? You haven't gone in yet?"
Cao Su showed a look of dissatisfaction. Everything else was in ruins. What's going on in Situ's Mansion? Why don't you go in?
Qiu Bai knelt down and confessed: "General, forgive me. Feng Situ said that he wanted to confront the general. If he didn't see the general, if anyone entered the house, he would draw his sword and kill himself to prove his innocence."
Cao Su understood. Qiu Bai was worried that he would not be able to capture Feng Yuchan alive. If Feng Yuchan was really forced to die, given Feng Yuchan's current prestige, it would definitely be a major blow to the court. No matter how Cao Su characterized Feng Yuchan afterwards.
As for Yu Chan's guilt, at least at this time, nothing can happen to Yu Chan. Just like Cen Daming, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, he was arrested first and sentenced later. He should not reverse the priorities, let alone abuse lynching.
】
But at this time, he had already "broken his heart" and didn't care about some fame at all.
Is there anything that people care about more than reputation?
It’s just a more stable living environment. As time goes by, decades or even hundreds of years from now, who will still remember today’s scene?
He didn't blame Qiu Bai. After helping Qiu Bai up, he said calmly: "You are just too kind, just like me."
Qiu Bai:......
Cao Su came to Situ's mansion and said, "Feng Yuchan, I'm here, open the door quickly!"
As Cao Su's voice fell, Feng Yuchan opened the main door, and a serious murderous aura came out of Situ's mansion. The soldiers who were loyal to him did not show any fear, and they hid in the mansion silently.
Feng Yuchan walked out of the house, alone and undressed, facing Cao Su from a distance.
Cao Su took a few steps forward. There were still blood stains on his robe that had just solidified. He looked at Feng Yuchan indifferently and did not take the initiative to speak.
Feng Yuchan asked directly: "I dare to ask the general, what crime did Feng commit, so that the general's army surrounded him? If the general wants to seal someone's head, he can just take it away, why bother to mobilize the troops like this?
?”
Cao Su sneered again and again and said calmly: "Feng Situ, you colluded with Li Rang and other rebellious parties with the intention of overthrowing the imperial court and the city of cholera. Do you admit to this crime?"
Li Rang became a rebel? Feng Yuchan would definitely not admit it: "Cao Su, why would you want to accuse him? Today you are just relying on your military strength to monopolize the imperial court. Feng simply doesn't bother to argue."
Cao Su was so happy that he ignored Feng Yuchan's heroic attitude and said, "It's okay if you don't defend yourself. None of you can escape today. You will all be taken back to the yamen of the Wucheng Army and Horses Department to be punished."
Just as he was about to wave his hand to signal the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to arrest people, Feng Yuchan's eyelids jumped and he stretched out his hand to stop everyone, with a very ugly look on his face: "What does the general mean? Li Rang's matter, Feng Mou is really
I don’t know, my daughter is about to get married these days, and Feng is busy preparing for her wedding. He hasn’t left the house for several days, so why can’t the general trust me?”
Cao Su's body swayed and he came directly in front of Feng Yuchan.
His movement was so fast that he arrived in a flash, startling even Feng Yuchan.
Cao Su looked at Feng Yuchan suspiciously. He found no direct evidence from Li Rang that Feng Yuchan was involved in the rebellion, but according to the report from the secret guard, it seemed that Feng Yuchan was also involved, and in addition
Due to the unusual behavior of the Feng family in the past few days, Cao Su had reason to suspect that Feng Yuchan also wanted to rebel against him.
Feng Yuchan looked at Cao Su with a normal expression, a drop of cold sweat oozing from his forehead.
Cao Su looked at him quietly for a while, then came to Feng Yuchan's side and said quietly: "Feng Situ, what are you nervous about? Are you telling lies? Do you want to deceive me?"
Feng Yuchan was so horrified that he fell to the ground and confessed: "The general is so frightened. I, Feng, am just a mortal. How can I not be nervous when I meet the general? My heart is about to jump out of my chest!"
After hearing Feng Yuchan's words, Cao Su understood immediately.
He has now entered the Half-step Profound Realm, and having been in a high position for a long time, he is indeed majestic. Let alone a person with average martial arts skills, even a high-ranking Strength Realm person will feel short of breath next to him.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing this, Cao Su helped Feng Yuchan and his expression softened: "It seems that I wrongly blamed Feng Situ!"
With Cao Su's support, Feng Yuchan managed to stand up. He couldn't help coughing a few times, and looked like he was not in good health.
Cao Su frowned and said, "Isn't Feng Situ a martial artist who has reached the fifth level of cultivation? Why is his health so poor?"
Feng Yuchan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's the sequelae of fighting when I was young. Now that I'm older, my energy is indeed not as good as before..."
Cao Su said seriously: "A pillar of the imperial court like Mr. Situ should have a good rest. It seems that Cao misunderstood what happened today, but Mr. Situ should not blame me. Nowadays, the imperial court is in turmoil and people's hearts are floating.
, Tonight, Cao caught Li Rang and other gangsters in the house of the Minister of Rites. These gangsters actually tried to collude with the evil warriors to assassinate the general. Their hearts are hateful and their hearts can be punished! "
After hearing Cao Su's words, Feng Yuchan's expression suddenly changed and he said in disbelief: "How could it be possible? Li Rang, a veteran of three dynasties, has always been loyal to the emperor..."
"People should not be judged by their appearance. Li Rang, the Minister of Etiquette, dared to conspire against him, which is really treason." Cao Su shook his head slightly, and then said to Feng Yuchan: "It is because of Li Rang that I misunderstood Feng Situ.
, Feng Situ is a loyal minister who killed the old thieves of Rongzheng, and he really shouldn’t be suspected, I almost cherished Feng Situ’s reputation!”
Feng Yuchan said seriously: "The general is also for the sake of the court, so what does it mean to be granted a certain false reputation?"
Cao Su nodded and said with a smile: "I have absolute trust in Master Situ now. Let's do this. The first day of the next month will be the day when I can be crowned king. Why don't you let Master Situ represent the emperor and please grant Cao the title of King of Yan?"
, what do you think, Master Situ?"
After hearing Cao Su's words, Feng Yuchan's heart sank to the bottom. There always seemed to be an inexplicable danger in Cao Su's smiling eyes.
He did not dare to hesitate at all and immediately agreed: "Don't worry, King Yan, I will handle this matter. It will be done properly."
