The young man stood in front of Yuan Shu, bowed his hands and prayed.
Yuan Shu raised his head and looked at the young Army Sima. This man was very young, handsome, and mighty. Yuan Shu nodded and asked, "Did General Taishi send you here?"
"Exactly, my subordinate is Sima Zhou Yu of the Third Battalion of the Dongyi Navy. This time, according to the order of General Taishi, he led a brigade to come to listen to Duke Yuan's instructions."
Yuan Shu nodded. These people arrived very quickly. I heard that Zhou Yu was personally sent to Dongyi by the emperor. It seems that this young man still has some skills. Yuan Shu asked again: "Does your subordinates have any skills?" Have you been discovered?"
"Of course not. According to General Taishi's orders, we have been traveling to Youzhou in the name of transporting grain. We have not met anyone. Now, they are all in Xiyu County, waiting for my order."
"Okay, this time, we want to get rid of the traitors in Ningzhou. Here is a detailed list and their locations. These traitors are the best at inciting the people and causing chaos. Therefore, we have to be very quick. At the same time, kill them all without giving them a chance to inform them, and also to prevent chaos in the two counties!"
Zhou Yu cupped his hands and said: "Yu is here!"
"Mr. Yuan, if we want to catch them all in one fell swoop, if we gather the soldiers and attack them one by one, they will naturally be counterattacked. Therefore, we can cooperate with the local officials. I will order the soldiers to rank as Wu Shi. They were stationed in each county and divided according to the size of the traitor's power. At the same time, they acted together with the local officials and killed them on the spot!"
Yuan Shu looked at Zhou Yu in front of him with some surprise. He pondered for a long time, then nodded and said: "If I leave all the power to you to handle this matter, you might be able to handle it?"
Zhou Yu was overjoyed. Would Yuan Sikong give him a chance to make meritorious deeds? He quickly paid his respects and said, "I will definitely live up to Sikong's high expectations!"
"If grace does not work out"
"Please behead me!"
"Hahaha! Okay, let's go!" Seeing the confidence on Zhou Yu's face, Yuan Shu was very happy and valued Zhou Yu more. Then, he handed over the information compiled by Liu Mo to Zhou Yu. He also personally issued a handwriting requesting officials from various places to cooperate with Zhou Yu to deal with traitors. This order was conveyed to all counties and cities by Wang Sheng.
Zhou Yu resigned from the governor's office and hurriedly returned to Xiyu County. He also issued different orders to various armies according to the power of traitors in various places. Zhou Yu acted very neatly and without delay. He repeatedly warned his soldiers: They are told not to reveal the secrets, even to local officials.
Zhou Yu asked them to go to the two counties in batches. They did not need to carry weapons. When needed, they could just take them out of the county government's arsenal. Then, he told them that after arriving at the county seat, they would rest at the county post station. , just wait for orders, and he himself goes to Kunliang, where the government is located.
In less than seven days, the troops brought by Zhou Yu were lurking in various counties in the upper and lower counties. After Zhou Yu negotiated with officials from various places, he finally decided to take action four days later at the beginning of the day. Zhou Yu also went to see Yuan Shu and asked for his opinion on these matters. However, Yuan Shu still let him act on his own without asking any more questions.
It can be seen that he still trusts Zhou Yu very much. Similarly, Yuan Shu does not think highly of the traitors in Ningzhou. If he were not afraid that it would cause chaos in Ningzhou and make the three or four years of governance fall short, Yuan Shu would have let him go. The army covered them up and got rid of them all.
Zhou Yu did not disappoint Yuan Shu. On the set time, Zhou Yu took the lead and led more than ten people under his command to rush directly into Gao Quzhi's mansion. Anyone who resisted would be killed without mercy. The thief chief Gao Quzhi would also die. In the hands of the soldiers, the others who were willing to surrender and dropped their weapons were captured by Zhou Yu.
This scene was happening in every county. With the help of local officials, these traitors were arrested one after another, and no one could escape. At the same time, the city gates were closed, and county soldiers also started martial law in the city to ensure nothing went wrong.
Two days later, Zhou Yu received the information submitted by all the counties.
The traitors were captured, and many of them tried to escape, so they were directly killed by the soldiers. None of the traitor chiefs survived, but many of his followers were captured. The corpses of the traitors have not been disposed of, and those who were captured They were all imprisoned in the county government, and no news was leaked to the outside world. Three days later, Zhou Yu personally wrote a "Book of Eliminating Thieves and An Ningzhou", and sent people to various counties to explain to the people.
Only then did the people of Ningzhou learn that the former tribal leaders were all dead. Of course, there were many evidences of their crimes on the notice, as well as the punishment results for the other followers. Finally, the people were told, Do good deeds and do not do evil. Good people like Yu Li Si from Kunliang will not be held accountable, and the government will reward him and so on.
This can be regarded as an example for the sacrifice of Li, so that the people can no longer be so panicked.
In addition, Yuan Shu personally wrote a letter and sent it to Yu Li Si. It was rare to find someone in Ningzhou who could translate between each other and asked him to send the letter. Yuan Shu's letter just stated that he hoped that Yu Li Si could Cooperating with the officials, he went around to tell the people about the evil deeds of the traitors and stabilized the situation in each county. After reading it, Yu Li Si agreed.
Under the protection of officials, he preached everywhere.
There were bursts of joy and laughter in the mansion. No one thought that a big problem that had troubled Ningzhou for many years would be solved so easily by Yuan Shu after his arrival. Ningzhou had no internal troubles. This was a big deal. What a happy event. Wang Sheng led the people to thank Yuan Shu and held a banquet in honor of him. The whole mansion was full of joy and laughter.
In the study room in the inner courtyard, Liu Mo sat quietly on his knees in front of the desk.
For some reason, the laughter coming from outside is always so harsh.
I don't know how long he stayed, but Liu Mo appeared in the front yard, looking at everyone happily, the sadness in his eyes had long been hidden.
After dealing with everything in Ningzhou, Yuan Shu immediately wrote to the emperor. In addition to reporting on the situation in Ningzhou, he mainly hoped that the emperor could change someone to come to Ningzhou. Wang Sheng was too old, how could he hold such a position in such a remote place? What about the hard-working position? In addition, there is Sima Zhouyu of the Dongyi Navy. He has strategy, courage, and ability, and he should not stay in the mere navy.
These are what Yuan Shu reported to the emperor. After the report, he and Liu Mo set off back to Luoyang.
Later, after the emperor saw Yuan Shu's memorial, he also felt that it was time to change the situation in Ningzhou. He asked Wang Sheng to return to Luoyang and become a free official. He also ordered Tingwei Zuocheng Cheng Yu to go to Ningzhou as the governor. This Cheng Yu was an examiner during the Jianning period. In addition, he had an old relationship with Kuai Yue, the prefect of Xiagao County. The two were examiners of the same batch.
However, the emperor did not transfer Zhou Yu away. Instead, he rewarded Zhou Yu and promoted him to the rank of Sima of another department, leading an army alone.
The two guards escorted Dong Zhuo into the Hall of Houde.
Dong Zhuo lowered his head, not daring to look at the emperor again.
The Emperor was sitting on the Hu chair, looking at Dong Zhuo and feeling angry. Dong Zhuo was prepared to be scolded by the Emperor. However, after coming in for so long, the Emperor was silent. This made him feel a little uneasy, and he secretly raised his eyebrows. At first, he looked at the emperor, but he didn't expect that he was caught by the emperor.
"You still have the face to look at me? Huh?"
"Don't dare."
"Don't you dare? Why don't you dare?! I kindly asked you to take the generals to study at Menzi. Ah, what do I mean? You don't know! If I didn't want to reuse you guys, I wouldn't have spent this time Do you think so? It would be better for you to go to Menzi School. Not only did you not listen to the lectures, but you also beat up the students! If you have such ability, go to the west and beat up Guishang! What does beating a few brats mean?!"
"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I was wrong. Your Majesty, I apologize."
The emperor sighed and calmed down a little. He pointed to the documents on the side and said: "Look, these are the letters of impeachment from the ministers of the court. From Cai Yong to Cao Cao, even the prefects and county magistrates from all over the country. Impeaching you"
"It's unprecedented to beat a student. It's unprecedented." The emperor covered his forehead and looked a little tired.
"I didn't kill him"
"Nonsense, you still want to beat me to death?!"
"Your Majesty, I was wrong. I accept my punishment. Your Majesty may punish me, but I will never complain."
Seeing Dong Zhuo's respectful look, the emperor thought for a long time and said, "That's fine, you can go back to Hedong and stay for a while."
"Hedong? Your Majesty, do you want me to resign and go home?" Dong Zhuo was shocked and asked quickly.
"Well, you can stay in Hedong for a while."
Dong Zhuo heard what the emperor meant and laughed. He quickly broke away from the escort of the two soldiers and bowed to the emperor. As soon as he came out of the palace, he saw the scholars gathered outside the door, and Some officials glared at Dong Zhuo and became very angry. Seeing this, the guards outside the palace immediately separated Dong Zhuo from them.
Only then did Dong Zhuo realize how much trouble he had caused.
Although Menzixue mostly comes from poor families, there are also some from aristocratic families. In addition, although Taixue and Menzixue are not in harmony, they are one after all. When they heard that the students of Menzixue were bullied by the domineering old soldiers, the Taixue students also I couldn't help it anymore, and behind these students stood huge figures. For example, Cao Cao's second son, who studied at Menzi School, is still on the sickbed.
Xun You's eldest son, who is far away in Dongyi, has black eyes and is currently staying in Xun Yu's house.
The other students who were not injured also encouraged their elders, making Dong Zhuo immediately the target of criticism and criticism. To put it in a more vivid way, he vaguely became the second Wang Jiexin in Luoyang!!
