The entire Fu Quan family was taken to Xiangyang, including Empress Fu of course. On the day Empress Fu was taken away, Liu Xie also knew that his secret had been discovered, so he didn't say anything and just cried silently. Even a group of ministers did not dare to
He said nothing more, just shook his head and sighed. Mi Fang took Liu Xie's blood edict, looked at the courtiers and said loudly: "The temptress pretended to convey His Majesty's will and wanted to kill the general together with his father. Such temptresses who bring disaster to the country and the people will not be put to death."
It is difficult to rely on the people's anger, and it is difficult to give justice to the general. A woman with cholera is Chao Gang, she is really a coward Si Chen, no different from Empress Lu back then!"
Fu Wanqi refused to admit it at first, until he called out the young eunuch who was leading the way, and Fu Wan sat down on the ground. He didn't expect that this young eunuch was also Long Fei's, and Long Fei had eyes and ears all over the palace, so Liu Xie actually trusted him so much.
He really surprised Fu Wan. There were both witnesses and material evidence. Fu Wan hurriedly shouted: "I'm wronged. All this is your Majesty's will and has nothing to do with me. Your Majesty forced me to do it. I beg you, sir, to take a closer look!"
Long Fei did not try the case himself. He did not want to be known as being against the emperor. In order to avoid this matter, Long Fei received Mi Fang's report the day before and left Jingzhou with Guo Jia and others to deal with more important matters.
.Xun Yu placed a few cases on the list with a snap: "How dare you dare to frame His Majesty after you are so bold, slap your mouth!"
A soldier took a wooden board as wide as his palm and slapped both sides of Fu Wan's cheeks. The blows made Fu Wan's mouth bleed, and all the few remaining teeth fell out. He was beaten about twenty times.
After lying down, he could only whine and roar and could no longer speak. The whole family was so frightened that they were trembling like chaff. Jia Xu waved his hand and asked the executioner to go, and shook his head slightly: "Why bother? It's what you did.
It would be a man to admit it, but denying it like this will do your Fu family no good!"
Fu De knelt on the ground, straightened his body, and cursed loudly: "You traitors are all Long Fei's accomplices! Long Fei imprisoned your father, these unfaithful and unjust villains, our Fu family will eradicate them on behalf of the big man."
It’s a disaster, it’s not a pity to die now, if we die, more people will seek justice for the big man!”
"Very good!" Xu Shu smiled slightly: "Two chief historians, now that they have admitted the matter, I think this case should be closed!"
Xun Yu nodded and glanced at Jia Xu. Jia Xu said: "As a queen, Fu Shou seduced his father to harm the important ministers of the Han Dynasty. It is difficult to uphold the laws of the Han Dynasty until he dies! He is sentenced to Ling Chi!" Empress Fu instantly collapsed to the ground. This is considered unparalleled in the world.
The most severe punishment was to cut off every piece of flesh from the body and then be executed. Those who were sentenced to Lingchi were only guilty of heinous crimes and attempted rebellion. Empress Fu never thought that she would suffer such a punishment.
Xun Yu looked at Fu Wan and others who were kneeling in the hall: "Fu Wan, father and daughter colluded to rebel, and Ling Chi is sentenced to death!" Fu Wan's tears immediately fell down, and he really regretted why he had to express his loyalty to Liu Xie, just because of this.
As a result of this incident, his whole family was executed, and he would have to bear an eternal infamy. If he could go back a few days ago and beat him to death, he would not follow Liu Xie to the toilet.
Xu Shu continued: "The evidence of the Fu family's rebellion is conclusive, the witnesses and material evidence are sufficient, and he confessed. The three Fu family members are sentenced to death!" The cries of the Fu family resounded through the hall. Zhao Yun waved his hand, and the soldiers came in. Two people
One of them captured them all. Liu Xie's yet-to-be-formed rebellion was strangled in the cradle. From then on, the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government stayed away from Liu Xie, and no one wanted to get close to him. Liu Xie's true success
A lonely man.
The news reached Long Fei's ears. Long Fei shook his head: "Oh! These people are really fooling around. Why bother to use such a cruel punishment if they just kill them! It's so inhumane!"
Dian Wei said with a smile: "This can scare those high-ranking officials who are so full that they have nothing to do. Otherwise, if we do this today and that tomorrow, we will die from exhaustion!"
Guo Jia laughed and said, "That's not right! Our General Dian Wei has always liked killing people. It's really surprising that he said such words today."
"Humph!" Dian Wei rolled his eyes at Guo Jia: "If I, Lao Dian, want to kill someone, just do it face to face and openly. Such old, weak women and children are boring!" Everyone laughed.
They were about to leave Xiangcheng, and across the small river in front was the border of Yingchuan, even if they entered Cao Cao's territory. Long Fei went to Yecheng to greet Cao Cao in advance. The newly appointed Chenliu prefect Liu Yan led his troops early
The boundary river welcomes him. In the last battle of Guandu, Liu Yan admired Long Fei's bravery, and Long Fei saved his life. This time when Long Fei came, Liu Yan, in order to fulfill his friendship as a landlord, specially went to the boundary in person
Waiting by the river.
Seeing Long Fei, Liu Yan quickly dismounted and saluted Long Fei. Long Fei helped Liu Yan up: "General Liu and I are also friends, why should friends be like this!"
Liu Yan chuckled and said: "Now that our status is different, General Long has become a great general. If we and other junior officials don't pay homage, wouldn't it be a violation of the rules? I'm afraid my lord will also blame me!"
The two of them chatted and laughed like real friends and walked all the way from Jiehe to Chenliu. Liu Yan specially prepared a banquet for Long Fei. Knowing that Long Fei didn't follow any rules, he didn't invite anyone else to accompany him.
People imitated Long Fei and set up a big round table. Everyone drank and ate meat together. The scene was lively, full of friendship and happiness.
During the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Shao fled north in a hurry and was seriously injured. Although Cao Cao suffered heavy losses, he pursued him all the way and captured Baima, Yanjin and other places. He also plundered a lot of grain and grass. Cheng Yu and Xu You suggested that they should take advantage of Yuan Shao's defeat and continue to pursue him north.
Cao Cao listened to the advice of the two men and fought all the way to Yecheng. Yuan Shao became ill from overwork and died of illness in Yecheng. Xu You proposed a plan to divert water from the Zhang River to flood Yecheng. The city was destroyed and Jizhou was pacified.
Yuan Shao's two sons Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang were at odds with each other. Cao Cao took advantage of Yuan Shang's attack on Yuan Tan and attacked his back. Yuan Shang led his army to rescue him. Cao Cao marched and surrounded his camp. Yuan Shang failed to surrender and fled at night, and Yuan's army collapsed.
Yuan Tan was afraid that Cao Cao would attack him, so he expressed his goodwill to Cao Cao and was willing to form an alliance. Cao Cao first promised and then attacked Yuan Tan in the name of breach of contract. Yuan Tan was captured and executed by Yu Jin, and Qingzhou was pacified.
Yuan Shang fled to Yuan Xi, the governor of Youzhou. Cao Cao gathered Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan's troops and attacked Youzhou. Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi did not dare to fight, so they abandoned the city and fled to Wuhuan, and Youzhou was pacified. Cao Cao took the opportunity to divide his troops into three groups to attack Bingzhou. Gao Gan
Undefeated, he was captured and killed by Xia Houyuan, and Bingzhou was pacified. At this point, Qing, You, Ji, and Bingzhou controlled by the Yuan family, the largest prince in Hebei, were completely annexed by Cao Cao, and his strength increased greatly.
In order to eliminate the remaining forces of the Yuan family and to completely eliminate the three counties of Wuhuan, Cao Cao decided to expedition to Wuhuan. After pacifying Bingzhou, he led the army to Wujing without stopping. During the rainy season, the road was flooded, so Cao Cao followed the advice of the general Tian Chou and changed the route.
A unique way. Under the guidance of Tian Chou, Cao Cao's army climbed Xu Wushan, left Lulong fortress, and pointed directly at Wuhuan's home base of Liucheng. Cao Cao's army entered Liucheng 200 miles away, Wuhuan Shan Yu Tadun and Yuan Shang, Yuan Xicai realized it, and hurriedly led the way
Tens of thousands of cavalry attacked.
When the two armies met, Cao Jun took advantage of the slight movement of Wuhuan's army and launched a fierce attack on Wuhuan's army. Wuhuan's army was in chaos, and Cao's army defeated Tadun. Yuan Shang and others fled to Gongsun Kang. Gongsun Kang was afraid of Cao Cao's army.
, beheaded Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi, and presented their heads to Cao Cao. Cao Cao defeated the three counties of Wuhuan and completely eliminated the Yuan family's influence.
At this point, Cao Cao's army was victorious and took control of Youzhou, Bingzhou, Jizhou, Qingzhou, Yanzhou, Yuzhou and part of Yangzhou. He controlled half of the Han Dynasty and more than 500,000 soldiers under his command. He was a formidable and powerful prince and became the largest prince in history. Cao Cao returned to the army.
In Yecheng, everyone is excited and happy when talking about merit and rewards. He calls himself Great Sima and does not take the princes of the world into consideration at all.
Cheng Yu knew better and said to Cao Cao: "Our army is now victorious. Your lord should be happy. He holds half of the Han Dynasty. No one in the world dares to challenge our army, but there is one person who must be released. Long Fei of Jingzhou is ambitious."
, although we only have one state, we have the ambition to conquer the world. I hope my lord will not get carried away."
After hearing this, everyone took a breath. The expression on Cao Cao's face changed three times, first to atmosphere, then to fear, and finally to happiness. He picked up the wine glass, held it to Cheng Yu with both hands, and bowed deeply to Cheng Yu.
: "Brother Zhongde is really a rare virtuous minister. I am very lucky to have Zhongde in this life! Everyone obeys the order and will start training the soldiers tomorrow to be ready to go south at any time!"
When Long Fei came to Yecheng, bursts of shouts of killing came from the nearby teaching military field. Jiang Ji, who was responsible for welcoming them, looked at Long Fei and smiled slightly: "General Long, do you think this sound is majestic?"
Long Fei chuckled: "My father-in-law is the best in the world in terms of soldiers and horses. How can I describe him as mighty? He is truly a powerful man in the world!"
Jiang Ji laughed loudly: "If such a large army appears outside Jingzhou, how would General Long feel?"
"Oh?" Long Fei then shook his head: "My father-in-law and I are allies, and I am his son. How could my father-in-law lead an army to attack my little Jingzhou? If he wants it, just give it to him. Why bother to mobilize the troops!"
"
"Hahaha..." Jiang Ji smiled even more wildly, completely regardless of his identity.
Cao Cao was drinking and chatting with his ministers when Jiang Ji came in with Long Fei and others. Long Fei knelt on the ground in front of the generals of Cao's army and said that his father-in-law was saluting Cao Cao. Cao Cao had a smile on his face and nodded slightly.
He raised his hand to signal Long Fei to get up. Long Fei then stood up and looked at everyone very friendly. Cao Cao chuckled and said, "How come your worthy son-in-law is free today and has come all the way to Yecheng? Why don't you bring my daughter and grandson back?"
?”
"Father-in-law, please forgive me!" Long Fei's courtesy this time was very thoughtful, which was completely different from his arrogance during the Battle of Guandu. Everyone under Cao Cao found it funny. Long Fei ignored him completely and said, "I heard that my father-in-law was victorious, so my son-in-law went out of his way to
Coming to visit is one of the first, and the second is..."
"So what?" Cao Cao leaned on the main seat and seemed to be admiring it. He wanted to hear what Long Fei wanted to do.
"Second! I want to make a deal with my father-in-law!" Long Fei always smiled, completely ignoring everyone's contempt and dissatisfaction: "I wonder if my father-in-law is interested?"
