"Jun Ce is indeed a big plan. It's okay if Li Jue and Guo Si don't agree. As long as they disband the army and only have a pavilion chief and three or five auxiliary soldiers, they can be captured alive. Let's do it."
The next day, all the civil and military officials were present in the Jinluan Palace. Emperor Liu Bian was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on the dragon chair in the middle.
"You ministers, if you have something to do, report it early, and if you have nothing to do, withdraw from the court."
Liu Bian glanced at the people below and couldn't help but reveal a bit of boredom in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, I have this memorial."
Wang Yun winked at Lu Bu, and the latter took a step forward very wisely.
"Marquis Wen has made great achievements in defeating Niu Fu this time. I have already arranged for a reward or something."
When Liu Bian saw Lu Bu coming out, he couldn't help but think that he wanted to take credit for killing the cow.
"Your Majesty, I am not here to ask for merit this time, but to ask for an edict from Your Majesty to pardon Guo Si, Li Jue and other old Xiliang generals for their crimes, so that they can serve their crimes and perform meritorious service and be used by my court."
Lu Bu expressed his intention to Han Xian Emperor Liu Bian.
"What do you think of what Marquis Wen said?"
Although Liu Bian meant what he said, he was actually looking at Wang Yun and Wang Shangshu.
"Your Majesty, I think there is something wrong with Lord Wen's words. The feud between Dong Zhuo and the princes of Guandong is well known. If he wants to pardon his old generals, it is likely to arouse their anger. If they lead troops to block the pass again, I don't know how Lord Wen can resist it.
.”
Wang Yun didn't say anything, and Shi Sunrui, as his top horseman, naturally stood up.
"How to resist? Naturally, the soldiers will come and cover up the water and earth. If they come, just fight them."
Hearing Shisun Rui's words, Lu Bu couldn't help but frowned. The princes of Guandong are now at war with each other. How can they have time to take care of themselves? It's really a waste of time.
"I'm afraid it won't be that easy. The Kwantung Allied Forces are strong. Let alone others, Yuan Shu alone will have a hard time resisting them. Instead of offending the Kwantung princes for a few old Dong Zhuo generals, it would be easier to send troops to wipe them out."
The scholar Sun Rui shook his head. Not to mention the coalition of princes, you can't defeat Yuan Shu alone. You still have the nerve to send troops to cover up the water and earth.
"Shi Sunrui, do you dare to bully me?"
Facing Shi Sunrui's words, Lu Bu's anger burst out, and he even used Yuan Shu to suppress him.
"I'm just talking about things."
Scholar Sun Rui was not afraid of Lu Bu at all.
"That's enough, Lu Bu, Shisun Rui. This is the Jinluan Palace, not a vegetable market. How unbecoming are you making such a fuss here?"
Liu Bian looked at the two of them with a burst of anger in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, calm down."
"Your Majesty, calm down."
"Your Majesty, calm down."
When the emperor was angry, everyone immediately knelt down and said he was wrong.
"Wang Shangshu, what do you say?"
Knowing that there would be no result if the two of them continued to quarrel, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty directly clicked Wang Yun's finger.
"Your Majesty, it is actually very simple to solve the problem of the old Xiliang generals. As long as your Majesty issues an edict, if they want to be pardoned, they must disband their troops. This will not only give the Guandong princes no clues, but also exempt them from the problem.
Xiliang's old generals are suffering from the best of both worlds."
Wang Yun is now the head of the hundred officials. When he speaks, all the civil and military officials in the Jinluan Palace agree with him, leaving only Lu Bu standing there in confusion.
"Lu Aiqing, do you have any objections?"
"I second the proposal."
Upon hearing Liu Bian's inquiry, Lu Bu was stunned at first, but in the end he could only smile bitterly and agreed with Wang Yun's suggestion.
"Okay, then issue an imperial edict to pardon their innocence and disband the army within a time limit. If they do not comply within the time limit, Lu Bu will be ordered to lead the army and cooperate with Zhu Jun to suppress it."
"promise."
After returning from the main hall, Lu Bu glanced at Wang Yun, and without saying a word, he took his family and generals and ran out of Chang'an towards Meiwu.
The emperor's imperial edict flew towards Shaanxi like a bird, but just when the court was deciding, Zhu Jun was defeated by Li Jue and Guo Si, and then his troops marched into Chenliu and Yingchuan, burning, killing and looting, the sacred land of the Han Dynasty.
, turned into a crowing hell filled with evil spirits.
"General, the imperial edict from Chang'an has arrived."
The emperor's angels, escorted by fifty imperial troops, arrived outside the camp of Li Jue and others.
"Chang'an's imperial edict? What does the emperor want to do?"
Li Jue looked at Guo Si and Zhang Ji beside him with some confusion.
"No matter what he wants to do, you have to listen to it."
Guo Bang glanced at Li Jue with doubts in his eyes.
"Well, let's come in and listen."
Zhang Ji nodded.
"Recruit in."
Li Jue clapped his hands outside, and after a while a eunuch entered the camp under the protection of several forbidden soldiers.
"The guilty ministers Li Jue, Guo Si and Zhang Ji received the order."
The old eunuch held up the imperial edict with one hand and looked sideways at General Li Jue.
"The minister Li Jue (Guo Si) (Zhang Ji) accepted the order."
The three pairs looked at each other and slowly knelt on the ground.
"Dong Zhuo brought harm to the country and the people, and committed a heinous crime. However, he was already executed, and Niu Fu was beheaded. Although you and other old generals are suspected of helping Zhou to commit cruelty, I uphold the virtue of God and decide to be lenient to you and pardon your innocence.
You are required to disband the army within one month before letting things go by the wayside, otherwise we will be killed without mercy when the time limit is up."
After the old eunuch finished reciting the imperial edict, he squinted his eyes at the three generals kneeling on the ground.
"Three generals, this opportunity is not easy to win. Please cherish it. I will leave first."
After saying this, the old eunuch left the military camp with a few forbidden soldiers, and then drove the carriage slowly towards Chang'an.
After receiving the imperial edict, Li Jue and the three of them looked at each other in the camp.
"Master Ushifu was also killed, where should we go now?"
Li Jue looked at the two brothers and couldn't help but ask this question.
"I don't know either. The situation is not good for us now. Why don't we just disband the army and return to our hometowns? We have enough money to spend for several lifetimes."
Guo Bang glanced at Li Jue, thought for a moment and said an answer that silenced the two of them.
"Well, if that doesn't work, it wouldn't be a bad idea to disband the army and go back to your hometown to become a rich man."
After a while, Zhang Ji spoke up and agreed with Guo Si's words.
"Well, let's do it."
Since both of them agreed, Li Jue didn't have any good ideas and decided to follow the imperial edict and disband his troops.
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha."
Just after the three people discussed it, they suddenly heard a burst of laughter.
"Who's making the noise there?"
Li Jue frowned and looked in the direction of the laughter, only to see a scholar named Ran Xu staring at them.
"Jia Xu, why are you laughing so wildly here? Are you despising me?"
When Li Jue took a look at the scribe, he immediately recognized him as Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe from Wuwei. During Dong Zhuo's time, he was given the title of Captain of the Tribunal, and he was an out-and-out member of the Xiliang clan.
"How dare Jia Xu look down on you generals? He just laughed because he heard a joke."
Jia Xu looked at the three of them, with a flash of light in his eyes. Li Jue might not be able to see the consequences of this imperial edict, but Jia Wenhe could see it clearly.
