Even though Lu Xun had not yet reached the crown, Yan Qing could not take his opinion lightly, but after careful consideration, he had the intention of adopting it.
Because of the importance of the matter, he could not make a decision alone, first let Lu Xun after the silence on this, will bring this good idea to the hall, and all the staff to discuss.
And the strategies they came up with themselves were mostly the same.
After reaching a consensus, Yan Qing ordered Manchong to lead his troops to arrest and imprison the family members and servants of the officials directly involved in the city, all of whom were charged with attempting to assassinate His Majesty.
Yan Qing is still very relieved to know that this Manchong, who has an unselfish face and enforces strict laws, is doing his job with peace of mind.
Full favor is recommended by Liu Ye to come, the first time was entrusted with important tasks, or do his best torture confession, the surface does not say, under the hand is very hard.
And these pampered people, suddenly lost the backbone, was imprisoned in the wet and cold prison, was on the verge of collapse, but also by the ruthless Manchu favor day and night to torture, and soon could not bear to 'confess'.
Full favor to get the desired confession, respect and keep the promise to no longer torture them: today admitted the crime, tomorrow will be very simply pushed on the court beheading, to give a real relief.
For a time, the city of Xu was left to wail and bleed all over the place.
And witnessed those who wear swords, hideous bodies were carried out of the palace of the people, thought they understood the truth, has always loved the people like a son of Lu Bu announced that these people are all rebels is even more convinced that the matter, see Yan Qing punishment so swiftly, not only do not feel afraid, but on the contrary, each clapping their hands and shouting loudly.
This made a storm of thunder, but also let those on that belt edict slightly heard, only in the end feel hopeful, concerned about the lives of their families and did not participate in this matter of public ministers and ministers completely recognize the situation.
The taste of the fence, not just their hands lost the real power, and the other party can easily at any time short of their food and clothing, but also not be seen by outsiders so simple.
But it is even the head of the neck that is sent down.
The situation is anxious, people's hearts are shaking, each silent, fearing that Lu Bu this man is vindictive, small-minded to even liquidate them together.
They only thought that Yan Qing's cruelty and ruthlessness was entirely at the behest of his master, and that the hatred and anger were all directed at Lu Bu, not realizing that the means of disposal of these people actually came from the hands of a teenager who had just been persuaded to unload the tutoring work that he had been stealing from the family, and who had begun to intensely study for the third imperial examination that would be coming up soon.
Yan Qing also did not expect their own mindless back, so that they consciously became a monkey in the killing of the monkey, a time not only impeachment of Lu Bu Yan Qing Guo Jia Jia Fans and others on this extinct, but also either resigned from office, or cheeky to hand in the invitation to go to the House of Yan Qing.
He was not discouraged by the rejection, and went around, begging those who had a good word with Yan Qing, trying to send his family's treasures, just wanting him to be magnanimous and let their family off the hook when the time came to settle scores.
Yan Qing dared to be so arrogant to drive out all the people, but it was not all about the backbone and power given to him by Lu Bu, but the backbone earned by his long years and years of dedication to the business.
How could he not know that Yang Biao was the titular patriarch of a hairpin family, a respected and famous elegant man.
But so what?
Indeed, when Cao Cao in the playbook poured his strength into going out to find trouble with Tao Qian, he was able to get a grudge from Chen Gong for killing that Chen Lioren celebrity, Bian Jean, and took advantage of the gap between his going out and successfully inciting a rebellion behind his back, which nearly reduced him to the point of homelessness.
So some people say that the reason why Cao Cao has suffered such a setback is that he has offended the bottom line of the scholarly class, causing them to become worried, so that they have to strike first.
Yan Qing, however, was not worried that Lu Bu would end up with his people's hearts against him just because he had taken a hard line against these public ministers who were intent on plotting against them.
You know, after Cao Cao borrowed the knife of Huang Zu, killed him outspoken, repeatedly ridiculed You Heng, and then also implicated him more criticism of Kong Rong's family, but still intact, under the rule of peace and quiet.
Is it possible that the reputation of a descendant of the famous Confucius is not worth the reputation of a local celebrity, Bian Jean?
Apparently not.
Rather, Cao Cao, who killed Kong Rong, has gained more control over his territory than he did in the past. Because the other local clans know his temperament, they don't worry that he will kill Kong Rong, who has offended him many times, and then kill others as well.
For Lu Bu nowadays, Yanzhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou and Jizhou are not to be taken into account, but Yu and Yang, his dominance in these two states is unshakable, and both the people's heart and the army's heart are completely loyal to him.
It can be said that unless the mastermind who fell out with Lu Bu and raised the flag of mutiny was Yan Qing, who was better in terms of being loved by the people and had great control in the army, it would be impossible to shake him in the slightest by just some clans that were willing to make common cause with the Yang family.
Yan Qing saw this point plainly, which was why he was so rough and unforgiving.
Not to mention that these public ministers are only loyal to His Majesty, and on the contrary, they are also quite influential, and are the helpers that they have to cut out before they can move Liu Xie.
The mere fact that they tried to plot against themselves and Lu Bu should not be condoned.
If even the person who wants his life can be simply spared, with only a slight injury, then such a light price falling into the eyes of the onlookers will only embolden the wallflowers, who are currently on the sidelines, to come one after the other from now on.
They must be made to clearly realize that once they provoke Lu Bu to truly launch his anger, it is a horror that they cannot afford.
As Yan Qing commanded his troops without batting an eyelid to carry out a blood bath against the rebels, Liu Biao also heard about it.
He was shocked on the spot by the killing determination suddenly displayed by this famous scholar who clearly looked gentle and elegant, moist as jade, and was speechless for a long time.
So many high-powered, distinguished ministers, he was so ruthless, no scruples, not a single mistake, said to kill!
Not to mention the other things, let's just say that the leader of the lieutenant Yang Biao, who comes from the flourishing Hongnong Yang clan, that can be compared to the Yuan clan of RuNan, which has four generations and three dukes, is a big family! Is he not afraid of retaliation?
For Liu Biao, who relied on the support of the local clans to stabilize his position as the assassin of Jingzhou, this is incredible to the extreme.
Visible Lu Bu on Yan Qing exactly how much reliance, and Lu Bu's power and how amazing, I'm afraid that has long been a hand in the sky, only to call the people completely trust, the ministers are afraid to do nothing about it.
Liu table chest a thousand feelings, and again looked at the martial law street, finally worried back to the house, and that a thousand charming step-wife Cai's also instantly surrounded, ask questions.
Liu table absent-mindedly perfunctory, she in this regard but keen very, where do not know that he is prevaricating? Not willing, they continue to sit on the side to pester him to talk, and the current number one enemy Liu Bei to turn out a scolding.
Road Liu Bei see the situation is not good, focusing on their own resignation and leave, but is ungrateful, also did not think to remind had a great kindness to him a few words of them, is really wolf hearted dog lungs.
And as Liu Biao listened, he actually felt that Cai's slanderous words against Liu Bei seemed to have a few points of truth.
That day, although he found Liu Bei with two younger brothers without saying goodbye, the heart is extremely unpleasant, but also do not care with this just got a little holy favor, learn to see no one in the insolence of the disciple to calculate what, so did not voice.
But not even a few days, there was a very tragic palace unrest, looking at that a set of draped with a sword, was stripped of the officials to carry out the palace, randomly abandoned in the mass grave at the bloody corpse, Liu table again slow, also had a very bad feeling.
If his expectation is not wrong, Liu Bei will certainly not be able to get out of it.
Knowing that most of them must be suspected to their own head, do not dare to go out of the mansion all day long, and do not dare to propose to go back to Jingzhou at this sensitive moment.
I'm afraid that the reckless man is so red-eyed that he's going to take advantage of the situation and do harm to him as well.
And to expect the five hundred armorers who came here with him to protect him is nothing but delusion.
I'm afraid Lu Bu alone can't stop it.
If Yan Qing insisted on arresting him and torturing him, blaming him for Liu Bei's absconding, he would not be able to resist at all.
Liu Biao waited for a long time with fear and trepidation, but did not wait for the ferocious soldiers to break into the door, but with a strong bloody Lu Bu striding in, politely said that His Majesty wrongly trusted the chaotic ministers, and this time was very frightened, I am afraid that quite a long period of time will not be able to preside over the court, he needs to take the place of the regent, and the government is too busy to keep him more than he needs to be.
Even though Lu Bu was filled with an unfading murderous aura, the tone in which he said this was serious.
Liu table where he could not hear this is one of his day and night looking forward to the order to send the guest, immediately as if amnestied to respond, and even not willing to wait until tomorrow before departing, for fear that Lu Bu will turn around and change his mind in general, the night with a good baggage, all the way to the horse gallop, out of the city back to the Jingzhou to go.
The reason Lu Bu found was not all pretext.
Liu Xie since that day in the temple, personally spied Yan Qing how to laugh and drive a miraculous arrow, a moment to the presence of a hundred people killed all the horrible scene, a moment from extreme joy to extreme sadness, but even the disappointment of the emotions do not dare to have: both mortal flesh and bones, how can be with the celestial mystery for the enemy?
But obviously he is the Son of Heaven of the Han Dynasty, the true dragon bloodline!
Why is it that such an immortal is assisted by Lu Bu, the martial artist who deceived his superiors to commit crimes, instead of him, the son of the true dragon, who should be the subject of all the people's expectations?
Can't it be that the folk had sung the ballad is true not false, this Han Dynasty, the royal family qi, really on the verge of exhaustion? ......
Light this kind of blow, has called Liu Xie double stock war, deeply disheartened, Yan Qing but also gave him back to add to the frost, line close to the faint warning a few words.
Liu Xie feared Yan Qing is afraid to know everything, will make his life insecure, that day on the sick, high fever, lingering sickbed, have to Fu Huang tears personally care of the Queen.
The power of the court now falls into the hands of Lu Bu, and no one dares to say anything.
This purge of the king's successes and defeats has been a huge affair, and has not been stopped by the public ministers looking docile and compromising and backing down, but neither has it been too far-reaching to force the dogs to jump over the wall.
It took ten days and a half months before it faded away.
Waiting for the torture chamber that had accumulated an unknown number of layers of dried and tainted blood, which had just been washed away by a timely downpour with no traces left, the curtain of the third examination was also officially drawn.
Calling the schoolchildren from several other states, they were busy turning their whole energies away from focusing on the big news and back to the serious matters that really concerned them.
After touching the top of the hair of the Governor of the Eastern Wu, Yan Qing, who had accomplished his wish of "personally sending his precious son to the college entrance examination center", was very satisfied, and in the midst of the surrounding people holding back their excitement and admiration, and desperately restraining their attention, he asked with a smile, "Is Mr. Zhier really ready? "
Lu Xun is obviously infected by his smile, can not help but also bloomed a small smile arc to, but also a high pointed chin, black eyes shining staring at Yan Qing, rare no longer obscure humility, but pursed lips, confidently said: "Although the child is not talented, but will go all out, will not insult the father's reputation."
This very arrogant words naturally caused the other candidates, who had been peeping at the world-famous Yan Dahonglu, to look at him angrily.
Whether it was this clear statement, and the proud little look, Yan Qing was liking it to no end.
If it wasn't for the fact that there were too many outsiders in the way, he wouldn't have been able to hold back and get his hands on it again.
"No need to think too much, just play well."
Yan Qing laughed, and at this moment could only regretfully suppress this impulse, turning his outstretched hand to Lu Xun to straighten out his wrinkle-less and dusty robes, and helping to stabilize his bag of books, before rising and saying, "The door is about to open, do you want to be the first one to enter the arena?"
Lu Xun's gaze gently swept over Zhuge Liang, who was accompanied not far away by his elder brother Zhuge Jin, who had fallen short in the second trial, and was forced to listen to his chatter.
This old rival with whom he had been at loggerheads for a long time also perceived his gaze, and at once, with a fake high and mighty face, he also looked askance, as if disdaining it.
Lu Xun slightly raised the corners of his mouth, curving out a faint mockery.
Yan Qing did not notice the exchange of glances between the two, only thinking that Lu Xun had drifted off, assuming that he was either too nervous or had not slept well last night. He could not help but knit his brows, "Is there any discomfort in the body of Zhi Er?"
Lu Xun instantly turned back, apologized, "Has not, just Fang saw the same window ......"
Yan Qing was slightly surprised and turned back to look, at this time Zhuge Jin happened to pull Zhuge Liang to change his position, so that he didn't find anyone and only thought that it was one of those adult candidates, "Then you can go over and greet him?"
Lu Xun didn't hesitate to say, "No need, it's not too late to wait until after the examination."
How precious is the good time to stay with his father for a while longer, not to mention that person is Zhuge Liang whom he hates, even if it is a friend who has always been good friends with him, he shall not be disturbed.
Although Yan Qing could not discern Lu Xun's small mind, she could also see that he enjoyed his company, so she smiled with a guffaw and quietly held his hand hidden in her sleeve.
...... Sure enough, I saw the alabaster earlobes, which became fiery red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Yan Qing did not intend to use any privileges, and even though he was eager to accompany him inside, he did not really send more, so he stopped behind this door with the other candidates' scribes and family members, smilingly watching Lu Xun's back.
Lucien took one step forward and three steps back at first, and gradually he was overwhelmed by the others coming through the door behind him.
To be able to enter the third exam, none of them are really full of knowledge, and that means that they are much older than Lu Xun in terms of age.
Yan Qing had accessed the candidates' information and knew that although Lu Xun was not the youngest of all the reference students, he was definitely the youngest of those who had persevered until the third session and had not yet been sifted out.
In fact, he does not expect Lu Xun can win the first prize, in the case of Zhuge Liang, Fazheng, Sima's family that a few older brothers, Pang Tong and other glittering pearl together under the circumstances, but also this kind of young age, can enter the temple exams this level, to obtain a ranking, has been very bright.
Of course, even if Lu Xun played poorly and caused him to fall in the middle of the third game, he would not be half disappointed.
Yan Qing had silently made two plans as he made his way to the council chamber: one was how to celebrate if he succeeded so as not to go overboard, and the other was how to comfort if he failed so as to be effective.
"Shigemitsu, there's an urgent letter for you."
Yan Qing had just arrived, which just saved Guo Jia, who was preparing to personally deliver the message for him, some effort.
"Oh?" Yan Qing took it and opened the letter while walking toward the inner hall, asking under his breath, "Where did it come from?"
Guo Jia did not look around, only broke his hand, gently wrote a "Jing" character.
Yan Qing smiled knowingly: since it is Jingzhou, it is a letter from Ma Zhong.
Because the contents of the letter were encrypted, the symbols were small and similar in shape, and easily confused, only Yan Qing remembered the decryption perfectly, and there was no need to cross-check.
So without having to avoid the soldiers outside too much, he unfolded this letter paper before walking into the inner hall.
Compared to last time's lengthy explanation, Ma Zhong's report this time was very simple and straightforward.
-The table first returned, Qi was seriously injured, the couple centrifugal.
A not favored son, naturally not like Guan Yu Zhang Fei that powerful martial arts protection, and even personal guards, are counted on one hand, the row of its younger brother are much worse.
Being secretly followed by Ma Zhong for a long time, they all realized nothing.
If it wasn't for Ma Zhong's intention to not really take his life, he wouldn't have been able to just be seriously injured and unconscious.
Liu Biao suffered a not so small shock, but also day and night traveling, just lay back to the safety of the mansion to recuperate not yet a few days, know the news that Liu Qi's life is in danger, can not help but feel the fire.
He certainly doted on the stepchild Cai, who was charming and famous, and even had an elder brother who held an important position in the army, and was also disgusted by the pillow winds that had once been regarded by him as quite similar to himself and highly valued his eldest son, but in the end, he did not get confused.
A tiger's venom does not eat its children, let alone Liu Jingzhou, who is known for his warmth and knowledge of manners.
Liu Biao on even his lost bloodline are not willing to let go, must be driven to extermination of the Cai Clan, greasily born a few points have never had a few points of disgust to.
This is more than just being a bully, I'm afraid it's more, it's based on the power of the elder brother and the clan, so they dare to do whatever they want.
Since Mrs. Cai married Liu table, with many means all the way to monopolize the favor, can be said to be smooth sailing.
Even the matter of establishing an heir, Liu Biao didn't just turn a blind eye to her stirring it up, he also favored her quite a bit.
This time, but somehow back a crime without cause, was scolded and cold treatment, but let Liu Qi benefit from it, since I am not willing.
She thought about it and saw that the one who benefited the most was Liu Qi himself, who regained his father's care through this matter, and then bit the dust that it was him who made a bitter trick, intending to provoke the relationship between her and Liu Biao, so as to win the heirship contest.
But she usually do not less fan the flames, rumors, there are bossy charm of the name, the target of Liu Qi, is who can not hide. Now shouting injustice, but also said that Liu Qi do not hesitate to take life as a bet on falsehoods, and who will believe?
Even her own brother Cai Mao, thought she authorized the subordinates to do, but also had politely blame her either should not be superfluous, or to cut off the roots, instead of leaving Liu Qi dying breath lying on the sickbed, evoking the father-son relationship between Liu watch and him.
Mrs. Cai tasted the difficult taste of a hundred mouths, the only way to suspend the climb biting Liu Qi, and take great pains, first to reclaim the husband's heart, and then make other plans.
Jingzhou surging tide of darkness, all the people think differently, but anyone who has not suspected, so that Liu Qi assassinated seriously injured the culprit, in fact, just gifted the Liu watch personal love Lu Bu, rather than the usual view of Liu Qi as a thorn in the side of Mrs. Cai.
And the strategy that Yan Qing and the others had set out to do was more than that.
Guo Jia did not come up to see - he is a little shorter than Yan Qing, in order to see clearly, just tilting his head up is not enough, but also need to stand on tiptoe, will inevitably be Yan Qing grabbed a joke.
He only lazily surveyed the change in Yan Qing's facial expression, and in the middle of the day, he gently smiled and said in a certain tone, "It seems that the matter has been settled."
Yan Qing was seen through by him and didn't argue, only surprised, "Did I act that obviously?"
Guo Jia is clearly pleased, but also pretended to be modest: "Jia this color observation skills, although to pure fire, but also slightly accomplished, used in the heavy light body, is more than enough."
Yan Qing raised his eyebrows and teased, "Oh? Can you allow Qing to give it a try."
Guo Jia laughed, "How hard can it be? Come on!"
Yan Qing stifled a laugh in her heart, but she deliberately made a show of her eyes being as calm as water, slightly lowering her eyes and looking at him fixedly.
Guo Jia had initially met his gaze with interest, but bit by bit, his face slowly darkened.
Finally snatching the letter with one hand, he angrily whisked his sleeve and stepped into the inner hall first without saying a word.
Yan Qing was thoughtful.
It turns out that Guo Jia is not bragging, but can really read his mind, right?
He just thought, is that he can rely on the height advantage, from this angle slightly overlooking his own detrimental friend, but it seems the other party is very a few petite cute ......
Luckily, it wasn't Lu Bu who had it.
