Wang Can temporarily stayed at the General's Mansion, and Fazheng and Guo Jia also stayed at the General's Mansion.
Dian Wei transferred Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao from the army back to the general's palace, specifically to protect Wang Can. It can be said that he put in a lot of effort. Lu Meng, Dian Man, Huang Xu and others stayed in the army, taking charge of all the affairs of the army, and dispatched
The scouts inquired about Ma Teng and prepared for the next battle.
At this time, a eunuch stood in the hall.
This eunuch was an attendant sent by the palace, and he was ordered by Fu Wan to invite Wang Can to the banquet.
When Wang Can led his army into Chang'an, Fu Wan, Dong Cheng and other court ministers invited Wang Can to the palace for a banquet. Although Wang Can directly refused, Fu Wan still did not give up. Only two days later,
After Fu finished, he sent his palace attendants to invite Wang Can, hoping that Wang Can would go to the banquet.
The servant came to the house for this purpose.
After Wang Can received the news from the attendant, he did not refuse directly, but asked the attendant to wait in the hall.
In the study, Wang Can called Fazheng and Guo Jia to discuss the matter.
After the two of them entered the study together, Wang Can waved his hand and said: "Sit down, no need to be polite, just talk about business."
Guo Jia and Fazheng still bowed and then sat down. When Fazheng and Guo Jia followed Wang Can into the city, they had already seen Fu Wan. When they were invited by Wang Can, they also inquired about the specific matter.
Fazheng looked serious and said in a cold voice: "My lord, in view of my humble position, I should take the advice of General Gao Shun and directly get rid of some important officials among the court officials to eliminate internal troubles. Now that the royal family has no owner, all the princes in the world are proud of themselves.
, the imperial court is almost useless, it can be said that it is tasteless and worthless to throw away."
After a pause, Fazheng continued: "My lord is worth a thousand dollars. My lord's safety is related to the livelihood of countless people in Yizhou. If my lord goes to a banquet and is assassinated by Fu Wan and others, wouldn't it be worth the loss? Now the imperial court
Without majesty, the courtiers are useless, so why should the lord give them face? He just dismissed the servants who delivered the message."
What he said was decisive.
Fa Zheng belongs to the hardline faction and has given up hope on the Han Dynasty.
In addition, the emperor had been dead for more than two years, and there was no emperor who continued the bloodline of the Han Dynasty. Fa Zheng did not take the court officials seriously, so he asked Wang Can to ignore Fu Wan and other court ministers.
After hearing this, Wang Can was a little tempted.
Wang Can looked at Guo Jia and asked, "Fengxiao, what do you think?"
After Guo Jia thought carefully, he smiled and said: "My lord, Jia thinks that although the ministers in the court are useless, Dong Cheng and Fu Wan are the heads of the country. Their daughters are both in the palace. As long as the queen and concubines are there,
The imperial court still has a certain use, and the courtiers should not be offended at all. Furthermore, Fu Wan and Dong Cheng invited the lord again and again, and the place they chose was inside the palace, so they did not dare to assassinate him."
Guo Jia's argument is different, but bolder.
Wang Can frowned slightly when he heard this. He was in a dilemma and hesitated to make a decision.
Fazheng glanced at Guo Jia, shook his head slightly and sighed.
Obviously, Fazheng did not agree with Guo Jia's view. What kind of identity was Wang Can, how could he put himself in danger? Regardless of whether there was danger or not, Fazheng believed that Wang Can should not go.
Wang Can squinted his eyes slightly and weighed it carefully in his mind.
Guo Jia and Fazheng only provided suggestions, and it was up to him to make the decision.
Since the invitation was done a second time, if he didn't agree, there would probably be a third time.
Moreover, Fu Wan and Dong Cheng took the initiative to invite, and they probably had something to discuss. As the saying goes, if you have nothing to do, don't go to the Three Treasures Palace. Fu Wan and Dong Cheng were so humble, there must be something important. Wang Can was thinking quietly, while Guo Jia and Fazheng were also waiting
Based on Wang Can's reply, Fazheng naturally hoped that Wang Can would not agree. Guo Jia didn't know what he was thinking, but also hoped that Wang Can would not go. Perhaps Guo Jia was also worried about Wang Can's safety.
It was quiet in the study.
"Boom! Boom!"
Suddenly, there was a gentle knock on the door outside the study, and then Dian Wei's voice came: "Master, it's me!" Wang Can woke up with a start and shouted: "Come in!"
The door creaked and Dian Wei walked in from outside the study.
Dian Wei bowed his hands and saluted Wang Can, and then said: "My lord, Fu Wan and Dong Cheng have come to the house in person. They must have found that the attendants have not returned for a long time, so they came in person. Now they are waiting in the hall,
I want to meet the lord in person and hope that the lord goes to the banquet."
After Wang Can listened, he nodded.
Dian Wei hesitated and said: "My lord, I feel that Fu Wan and Dong Cheng must have ulterior motives, so they invited my lord to the banquet. I suggest that my lord refuse them."
Dian Wei was worried about Wang Can's safety and hoped that Wang Can would not go to the banquet.
Wang Can raised his brows, laughed suddenly, and said: "We have already arrived at the house, why haven't we seen you yet? Besides, they invited us personally, and they are accompanying us, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Filial piety, filial piety,
You two stay at the house to take care of the daily affairs, and the tiger will go with me."
After finishing speaking, Wang Can took Dian Wei and left the study.
After Wang Can came to the hall, he saw Fu Wan and Dong Cheng sitting and waiting. He cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Master Fu, Master Dong, I have just arrived in Chang'an. Things are busy. I have been slow to treat you two adults. Please forgive me."
Fu Wan immediately stood up, returned the gift with his hands, and then said: "It is normal for the King of Shu to be busy with everything. Mr. Dong and I have nothing to do and have nothing to do, so we invited the King of Shu to the banquet. If you disturb the King of Shu, please handle it."
I ask the King of Shu to forgive me for this matter. The ministers in the court are already waiting for the King of Shu and congratulating the King of Shu in the palace. I ask the King of Shu to agree."
Wang Can made up his mind and said: "Okay, I would like to thank all the officials in the court."
Dong Cheng immediately asked: "King Shu, when will we set off?"
Wang Can said: "Let's set off immediately!"
As he spoke, Wang Can waved his hand and prepared to leave with Fu Wan and Dong Cheng. Seeing Wang Can's straightforwardness, the two felt quite happy, and they followed Wang Can and prepared to leave the General's Mansion.
When Dian Wei saw that Wang Can insisted on going, there was nothing he could do to stop him.
After he left the hall, he immediately called for the soldiers who were protecting Wang Can.
Moreover, Dian Wei sent soldiers to notify Lü Meng, who was leading the troops stationed in the city, and asked Lü Meng to send scouts to pay attention to the movements in the city at any time. In this way, if there was an unexpected situation, Lü Meng could send troops to rescue as soon as possible. Not only that,
Dian Wei also brought Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao with him, and the three of them protected Wang Can together.
Dian Wei brought hundreds of people to follow Wang Can. The group left the general's mansion and marched toward the palace. There were not many palace guards outside the palace. With the hundreds of people Dian Wei brought, they could definitely do it.
Defeat the Praetorian Guard.
From this point of view, we can also see the decline of the imperial court.
However, Dian Wei did not relax and was still very vigilant.
After entering the palace, Dian Wei left the hundreds of soldiers he brought with him outside the palace, and then entered the palace with Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao with 20 soldiers to protect Wang Can.
Seeing this, Fu Wan and Dong Cheng said nothing.
In the eyes of the two of them, Wang Can did these things for his own safety and it was normal.
In the main hall, the emperor's seat was empty. The ministers of the court were sitting on the left and right sides of the main hall. Wang Can sat first on the left side, the head of the officials.
After Wang Can sat down, Dian Wei, Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao and twenty soldiers stood behind Wang Can.
Dong Cheng arranged for the attendants in the palace to prepare a table for Dian Wei and others, but Dian Wei, Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao all refused.
Three people and twenty soldiers stood behind Wang Can like sculptures, motionless. These soldiers were veterans selected on the battlefield. They were experienced and very powerful. They stood behind Wang Can, and the ministers in the court were all trembling with fear.
, seemed a little unnatural, especially when he was caught by the soldier's gaze, his body shuddered unconsciously.
