Three Kingdoms: Salted Fish's son-in-law was overheard by Cao Cao

Chapter 144
After hearing Yang Xiu's words, all the ministers woke up immediately. It turned out that the matter was not yet settled, so they all cried out that they had no possibility of contacting Yuan Shao, and even cursed and swore.

"Cao Gong Mingjian, my family business is in Xudu, it is absolutely impossible to have private information with Yuan Shao, and it is even more impossible to seek refuge with Yuan Shao. This little boy Yang Xiu is slandering us."

"Yes, yes, we are all innocent, Mr. Cao, don't trust villains."

"Yang Xiu's son's uncle is Yuan Shao, and he must be the first one to talk about colluding with the enemy."

"That's right, it must be Yang Xiu who called out to catch the thief!"

……

The noise for a while made Han Ze think that he had entered the vegetable market, or the kind of vegetable market that only aunts patronize.

[The sophistry is very clever, if I were Yang Xiu, I would take out a large stack of letters and say they were intercepted, and see who dares to bet on them. 】

Cao Cao almost couldn't help turning his head back, it was the time when he was grateful from Han Chen, why did Han Ze always make trouble.

Some of the Hanchens and gentry shouted loudly, and some joined forces underneath to discuss with each other.

"It's very likely that Cao Cao doesn't know about it now. There must be a turning point for this matter. We will kill ourselves for not doing it. Anyway, Yang Xiu has no evidence."

"Yes, it depends on who has a guilty conscience, and they will fall into their trap."

Cleverly leaning over to Sima Fang's side: "Mr. Sima, what do you think of this?"

Sima Fang shook his head: "I'm just sitting at home, and the disaster comes from the sky. I didn't do anything, so naturally I'm not afraid of anything."

Those people seemed to have obtained some wealth code, and followed suit one after another.

One by one, they raised their chests and looked up, not to mention how confident they were, and there was absolutely no evidence of a guilty conscience from their appearance.

Cao Cao's face darkened at this time, and he waited for the noise of the crowd to quiet down before speaking again.

"It turns out that you betrayed me. Don't you have so much confidence in me? Don't you have so much confidence in tens of thousands of soldiers? Could it be that the millions of people in Xudu can't make you feel at ease?"

"There is absolutely no such thing, the prime minister, all this is slander."

Cao Cao reprimanded sharply: "Yang Xiu has no grievances with you, why should he slander you."

An old minister immediately raised his hand, Cao Cao turned his gaze away, and the man said: "There is a grudge, Prime Minister, Yang Xiu has a grudge against me."

As soon as the man finished speaking, someone raised his hand again, and then eight or nine people raised their hands one after another.

Cao Cao was a little embarrassed: "Yang Xiu, what's going on?"

Yang Xiu returned to his senses and saluted calmly: "A virtuous person does not avoid relatives. As a law enforcement officer, I naturally don't deliberately avoid people who are enemies."

[Damn, Yang Xiu is too good at talking, but why did he bring Sima Fang and his son here? Is it because he didn't help him save Yang Biao before?This is too stingy. 】

Cao Cao had seen Sima Fang a long time ago, so he probably guessed the reason, so he ignored Han Ze's complaints.

"In this case, then these people..."

Seeing that Cao Cao was about to give an order, Xun Yu couldn't bear it any longer, and stepped forward: "My lord."

Cao Cao turned his head to look at Xun Yu, thinking that you have come.

"What's the matter with Wen Ruo?"

Xun Yu bowed again: "My lord, these are already idle people with idle jobs. Can you let them go and kill them again, and the big man will have no courtiers."

Liu Xie felt tears welling up in his eyes, I am no longer going to court, there are no courtiers, no Hanchen.All of them are Cao Cao's generals.

Cao Cao helped Xun Yu up: "The emperor of the Han Dynasty is here, and all those who work hard for the Han Dynasty are naturally the courtiers of the Han Dynasty. And these people..."

Cao Cao waved his finger at those surrounded by the tiger guards.

"It's just the moths of the big man. Did they shed blood for the big man? Or sacrificed their lives for the big man? They are the ones who betrayed the big man, Wen Ruo, why do you think they are the courtiers of the big man?"

Xun Yu was speechless when he was questioned by Cao Cao. It is true that these people did not contribute so much to the great man, but the prime minister killed all those who bleed and worked for the great man.

Now there are only these left. If these are all killed, then the big man will really exist in name only.

But Xun Yu couldn't say that. After all, no matter who worked hard or sweated, they all wanted Cao Cao's life.So I can only beg stubbornly.

"My lord, please take it lightly." Xun Yu bowed again.

Cao Cao helped him up again, patted his shoulder and turned to the captured Han Dynasty.

When the subordinates saw Cao Cao walking down, they quickly proved their innocence.

"Cao Gong, I really did not cooperate with the enemy, I was wronged."

"Mr. Cao's plan is clearly Yang Xiu's plan to kill us so that he can take over."

"Prime Minister, don't fall for Yang Xiu's tricks."

Cao Cao stopped halfway, still looking down at those people.

"Yang Xiu, they said you made a false accusation, but you have evidence."

Yang Xiu turned around and bowed: "Of course there is evidence. The communications of these people have already been intercepted by me, and now they are stored by the school office."

Many of those people shut up instantly, and even shrank back into the crowd.But everyone wrote the letter, and who is willing to block the gun for others.

So there was a situation where everyone went backwards, and even these people were stopped by the tiger guards, but at this time they stepped back two steps in an instant.

Everyone confirmed each other's eyes, and immediately understood that they were the ones who wrote the letter.

Standing on a high place, Han Ze was stunned by this scene. He could see it more clearly from the high place than from below. These people seemed to be walking in unison, and instantly took a step back at the same time, which made Han Ze amazed.

[I really can't do anything, hiding No. 1. 】

This time Cao Cao couldn't hold back, and turned his head to stare at Han Ze, but Han Ze was staring at those people at this time, and didn't see Cao Cao's eyes killing him.

Seeing that his threat failed, Cao Cao had no choice but to turn his gaze to those courtiers.

"So, what else do you guys have to say?"

Some of them were actually framed by Yang Xiu, and they went to the front to reprimand Yang Xiu righteously and demanded a confrontation.

Sima Fang looked up at the moon in the sky, and then at Cao Cao in the field. He felt that the time was almost up, and the scene should end.

After hearing what those people said, Cao Cao nodded and agreed: "Well, since this is the case, let's confront each other. Yang Xiu, let the people from the school affairs office send over the evidence."

Not long after, people from the school affairs office came to the square with a wooden box containing dozens of letters.

Those Hanchens and gentry who were surrounded by the tiger guards all looked ashen when they saw them, and they recognized the covers of some letters, which were the letters they wrote to Yuan Shao.

When Liu Xie on the stage saw the letter in the box, his heart was filled with sadness, and he remembered that day, the afternoon when the Hanchen was slaughtered by Cao Cao.

Is it going to blood-stain the square again today?There are not many Han officials, if they continue to kill, I am afraid it will be like what Xun Yu said, the big man will have no more courtiers.

Just when everyone thought that Cao Cao was going to compare the letters one by one and pull the man out to behead him, Cao Cao waved his hand in a dispirited manner.
