After the defeat, Sima Yi fled with this entourage, stunned him in a remote place where no one was around, shot him dead with a bow and arrow, put his official seal and jade pendant into his arms, and trampled on his head with a horse, making him unrecognizable , so that when the pursuers see the body, they will mistakenly think that Sima Yi is dead.

And Sima Yi had already fled, so he found a place to hide first, and after the news passed, he slowly plotted revenge!

"Hehe, what a cunning 'Tomb Tiger', he really has some skills, but Li Daitao's mere plan to stiffen up, can't hide from the eyes of this Grand Master!

Pass on the order, set up checkpoints at various traffic arteries, strictly investigate Sima Yi's whereabouts, pay special attention to the middle-aged man with injuries on his face, this guy is likely to destroy his appearance in order to hide his tracks!

Another reward order was promulgated, and those who killed or captured Sima Yi alive would be rewarded with 2 taels of gold, and civilians would be directly awarded the title of Marquis of Duting, and officials would be promoted three ranks in a row! "

"promise!"

Who doesn't want to get promoted and get rich? After the order was issued, tens of thousands of Xuanjia soldiers moved after hearing the news, and searched with a net within a radius of a hundred miles. Villages, woods, caves...everywhere that can hide, even a stone is enough. To cut three times!

The soldiers who surrendered were also re-examined, and those with injuries on their faces were picked out, and people who knew Sima Yi were sent to check them one by one, so that no one would slip through the net!

It's strange to say that after such an airtight search, after a whole day and night, there is still no trace of Sima Yi. Has this guy gone to heaven or earth?

At noon the next day, news came that although Sima Yi was not caught, the soldiers found Cao Pi's coffin and other things in a hidden cave!

Xiao Yi didn't dare to be negligent, he sent people to bring back the coffin and the things he found, and at the same time ordered to build a coffin for a grand sacrifice!

It stands to reason that after the emperor died, he should be buried in a seven-story coffin wearing a gold-threaded jade garment. Not to mention.

It's a pity that Cao Pi didn't enjoy any of the things mentioned above. He was turned into a "salted fish" right after his death. Because the situation was chaotic, he couldn't get such things as golden jade clothes and seven-story coffins, so he had to use ordinary pine coffins for burial. up.

There was no time to pay homage, and the coffin followed the rebels all the way north. The road was bumpy and rained several times. If Cao Piquan knew it, he would have to be pissed off again!

Before the decisive battle, Sima Yi sent several confidantes to hide the coffin in the cave, thinking that after capturing the ferry, he would send it to Yecheng, in the name of the late emperor's funeral, and summoned the Hebei gentry group to plan a big event!

Who would have thought about the coffin? If Xiao Yi hadn't sent people to search with a net, Cao Pi might have stayed in the cave for a while.

The coffin was brought back quickly, and the coffin and sacrifices were all ready. After Xiao Yi led the soldiers to sacrifice solemnly, he sent people to send the coffin back to Luoyang City and buried it in Beimanshan-Shouyang Mausoleum. No need to go into details.

Along with the coffin, there were two large red lacquer boxes, which were filled with official documents, albums, letters and other items!

In order to speed up, the rebels almost discarded all the luggage before, but they left these two boxes and put them together with Cao Pi's coffin, which shows that the things inside are not ordinary!

Xiao Yi opened the box and checked it himself. The first thing he found was an imperial decree, which was not written by the false emperor Cao Xiong, but left by Cao Pi before his death!

’ The emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty said: I have inherited the emperor’s sage, and I have been enshrined in the Zongzhou. I am trembling and never slack.I have heard that those who are sages must stand up and inherit the temple of their ancestors to build a thousand squares!

Today there is a queen of the Guo family, who is Shu Shen, diligent and submissive, graceful and pure, and gentle in nature. She canonized as the Queen of Wei, the mother of the world, and controls the concubines in the harem to prosper the clan; , with clear laws and close virtuous ministers, so that the whole world will obey the king, and all sides will respect the dynasty together!

In the first year of Huangchu, the first day of the first lunar month! '

…………

After reading the imperial edict, Xiao Yi couldn't help shaking his head and sighing. He never expected that Cao Pi would be so infatuated with the little queen that he would secretly write down the imperial edict on the first day of his enthronement. It's a pity that this edict will never be announced to the world .

Xiao Yi put the imperial edict in his arms, and was going to take it back to show the little queen. Seriously speaking, he owed her the Queen's laurel crown!

Not only the little queen, but also owed Cao Jie a queen laurel crown, and Zhen Mi a queen laurel crown. Because of her sudden birth, these three women lost the glory of their mothers, but they also avoided the tragedy. ending!

Then again, although I can't give them the Queen's crown, I can use other methods to make up for it, that is love and happiness for a lifetime!

Continue to check, and found a thick stack of letters in the box, all written by the heads of various families to Cao Xiong.

If Cao Xiong was firmly seated on the throne, these people would support heroes. Now that Cao Xiong was defeated and captured alive, these letters would become evidence of crimes.

"Come here, give these letters to Wu Zhi, let him arrest people by name, don't let anyone go, don't let anyone go!

Tell Wu Zhi again, let him control the measures and means, the grand master only needs one thing, and it is tranquility! "

"promise!"

Everyone in the world knows that Wu Zhi is Xiao Yi's black hand, and he is best at doing all kinds of 'dirty work'. There is no prisoner who cannot be tried, no confession that cannot be asked, and no charges that cannot be arrested!

When these letters are in his hands, there will definitely be a bloody storm, and the Central Plains gentry will be in great trouble!

"Feng'er, do you have any questions?"

Xiao Yi looked at his son beside him, his bright eyes were full of little question marks again!

"I really don't understand, I remember my father said that after the Guandu war, many letters were also seized, all of which were written by court officials and Yuan Shao, and there were many words of betrayal in them!

At that time, someone suggested that according to the name, they should be collected and killed. Emperor Taizu Wu refused, but ordered a fire to burn all the letters. Why do you do the opposite, such a large-scale killing, I'm afraid it will lose people's hearts! "

…………

"Haha, silly boy, as the saying goes, one moment, another moment, everything in the world is constantly changing, and the countermeasures will naturally change accordingly!

At the time of the Guandu battle, Taizu was weak and Yuan Shao was strong, his own life was in danger, let alone others?

Moreover, after the great war, a thousand wastes are waiting to be done, it is indeed inappropriate to start a massacre, so all the letters were burned to make the civil and military officials feel at ease, but this is only a stopgap measure!

Later, Emperor Taizu Wu pacified the Central Plains, and after the foundation was stabilized, those officials who had colluded with Yuan Shao would have a good end, not all of them were killed!

The situation is completely different now, the Xiao family is in full swing, the gentry is in decline, I am the knife and he is the fish, so what's the harm in killing it?

What's more, the world is in turmoil, all because of the gentry group's annexation of land and violent expropriation. The people of the world have long hated it. Now that we are killing the killer, not only will we not lose people's hearts, but we will win people's hearts!

The way of power and tactics is profound, not my son's master. You can practice martial arts, read military books, and make contributions on the battlefield. You will expand the territory for our Chinese nation. Your achievements in the future will not be inferior to those of Wei Qing and Huo Qubing! "

……

"Kids, remember!"

Xiao Yi patted his son on the shoulder, explained the reason for the massacre, and at the same time understood that this son is a military genius, but he is also a political idiot!

For Xiao Feng, this is not a good thing, but for the entire Xiao family, it is a great thing!

If every son inherits political talent and is ambitious, I will be exhausted as a father sooner or later!

Sure enough, Wu Zhi lived up to his trust and took advantage of the crime of 'participating in treason and rebelling against the court'. After just half a month, he successively cleaned up the Yuan family of Chen County, the Xie family, the Wang family of Langya County, and the Yang family of Taishan County. The head of the family and important male members were all beheaded, the old and weak, women and children were exiled to the bitter cold of Liaodong, and the family property was confiscated into the treasury to help the people!

The chicken had to flop a few times when it was caught, not to mention the well-established gentry group, facing Xiao Yi's iron-fisted purge policy, the five major families of Hedong County Wei, Pei, Jia, Liu, and Xue gathered tens of thousands of people and staged an armed riot , and also played the slogan of "Qingjun side, Zhengchaogang"!

In fact, the five major families also understood that even if their strengths were combined, they would not be able to wrestle with Xiao Shi. The purpose of doing this was to warn Xiao Yi, don't bully people too much, rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry!

But a rabbit is a rabbit after all, and will never be an opponent of a wolf. On the second day after the incident of the five major families, Sun Shao led [-] troops into Hedong County, and there was a bloody massacre.

Obedient and obedient, kill you alone, disobedient, kill your whole family, this is the way of the king!

The bloody wind has been blowing for several months, and countless people ransacked their homes and exterminated their families. The Central Plains gentry group was hit hard by this, and never recovered, and slowly disappeared into the long river of history!

In the fifth year of Huang Chu, on the second day of October, Xiao Yi ordered his teachers to return to the imperial court, and the troops marched to the vicinity of Zhaoling in Runan County. Cao Xiong confessed that he had committed a heinous crime, so he covered his face with hair and 'hanged himself' in the tent!

Thinking that he was the son of Emperor Taizu Wu, and he had a heart of repentance, Xiao Yi ordered that he be buried on the spot with the ceremony of a doctor, but his crime of rebellion could not be escaped, so he was buried with three layers of black veils covering his face to show his shamelessness The ancestors were buried underground, and three iron hoops were added to the coffin, which will never be opened!
