Zhao Wen let out a long sigh and lay powerlessly on the bed.

"It's a pity that the big man has raised scholars for a hundred years, and raised such foolish people."

Chapter 182

Broadcasting is annoying.

After sending Guo Tu away, he worried about gain and loss, and couldn't sleep well.I have dark circles under my eyes all day long, and I am sluggish.

Guo Tu was offended, but the emperor couldn't please him.

Sending chariots and horses at the same time, what would the emperor think if this spread to the ears of the emperor?

Anyway, after meeting several times, Xuanbo felt that the emperor looked at him unkindly.

While he was worrying, he saw Wang Yi pushed the door open and entered, as if entering a no-man's land, he was furious and went up against the case.

"Who are you, dare to act presumptuously in Tingwei Prison?"

Wang Yi cupped his hands. "The governor of Hedong, the king of the north, was ordered by Situ Zhao Gong to become a court captain."

Xuanbo didn't react for a while, blinked and looked at Wang Yi.

Governor of Hedong?Wasn't he detained by the rebels? Why did he suddenly appear here and come to plead guilty again?

"What crime did you commit?"

"I don't know." Wang Yi said proudly: "Perhaps it is because the king's exhortations are earnest, which is not in line with the courtesy of ministers."

After listening to the announcement, I couldn't help feeling sympathetic.

Since you have a daily note, you have to be careful when admonishing in front of the emperor, and you can't say wrong things.Wang Yi had just arrived from Anyi, so he didn't know the depth, and it was understandable for him to remonstrate directly.

In this way, Ziyi Tingwei is just going through the motions, and when the emperor's anger subsides, he will naturally issue an edict to release him.

"Let's talk about it, what kind of advice is so important." Xuanbo said, and ordered someone to make a record.

The process that should go has to go.

Wang Yi took his seat calmly, tidied up his clothes, and then spoke unhurriedly.

Xuanbo's brows gradually frowned, and when Wang Yi said that Cai Yan was the wife of the Wei family with a look of contempt on his face, Xuanbo couldn't help but interject.

"As far as I know, your husband is the former Taiwei Liu Wenrao, right?"

"Indeed." Wang Yi said proudly.

Learning from Liu Kuan is his greatest capital in his official career, and he has always been proud of it.

"Liu Wenrao is an elder, why are you so harsh? Cai Lingshi married the Wei family as the daughter of a great Confucian. The Wei family's son died prematurely, and he didn't know how to pity Cai Lingshi's young widowhood. Instead, he was harsh on others. As a The eunuch, who doesn't know the honesty and customs, opened his eyes for the Wei family, so could it be that Cai Bojie's daughter is not as good as the master's servant?"

Wang Yi was stunned and at a loss for words.

Xuanbo mentioned his former teacher Liu Kuan, and he was not very easy to answer.

Liu Kuan is known for his generosity, and there are many related anecdotes, one of which is related to his family's maid.

Liu Kuan went to the court, and the servant girl was ordered by the mistress to deliberately pour meat soup on Liu Kuan's court clothes to see if he would be angry.As a result, Liu Kuan didn't change his face, but cared about whether the servant girl's hands were burning, which became a good story for a while.

Of course Cai Yan's status is more valuable than that of a maidservant, what Wei Shi did was indeed unkind, compared with Liu Kuan, he was not hesitating.

Wang Yi defended the Wei family and despised Cai Yan, which of course did not conform to the ethos of his school.

Xuanbo's favor for Wang Yi plummeted, and he asked again: "Since you are from Anyi, how about the rebellion in Anyi, have you ever reported it to the emperor?"

"I want to be alone, but the emperor forbids it."

Announcement was furious and pointed. "Wei's rebellion, the emperor worked tirelessly to conquest, you don't mention the important things, but go to war for some trivial matters, how confused. In my opinion, you are not being rude to the emperor, you have no court at all in your heart. Come, take it down for me!"

The subordinate officials at the side were also displeased, and rushed over like a wolf like a tiger, knocking Wang Yi to the ground.

"Drag out, hit twenty sticks first, and kill his prestige." Xuanbo was furious and shouted sharply.

The rebellion in Hedong started because of Guo Tu, and Wang Yi, as the prefect of Hedong, actually complained for the Wei family, so naturally he couldn't get rid of the responsibility.He can't catch Guo Tu now, but he can vent his anger on Wang Yi who came to his door.

How many people have you offended at once, you idiot.Even if your teacher Liu Kuan came back from the dead, he can't save you now.

Caught off guard, Wang Yi was dragged out and pinned to the ground.

The subordinate officials thought his mouth was stinky and didn't save him face.Lift up the hem of the clothes, revealing the white buttocks, and even most of the back, and hit him with a stick, very hard.

Wang Yi screamed.

During the march, for the sake of safety, the three princes and nine ministers were all very close to the imperial tent. Wang Yi screamed so badly that the ministers and ministers were startled, and they either sent people out to check, or came to ask for details in person.

Sikong and Zhang Xi were among them.

Recognizing that it was Wang Yi, Zhang Xi was startled, but he didn't dare to say anything.

He also has some relationship with Wang Yi.

His elder brother Zhang Ji and Wang Yi's teacher Liu Kuan are good friends and colleagues, and he and Wang Yi have met many times.

It's just that the current situation is turbulent, and the last time we met was several years ago.

Hearing of the Hedong rebellion, he was worried about Wang Yi's safety.Seeing Wang Yi appearing in Tingwei and being tortured again, he instinctively felt that it might be related to the rebellion.Don't rush to express an opinion until you know the truth.

If it involves rebellion, it will be punished by the clan, and no one can save it.

Zhao Wen could hear clearly in the tent, but he was unmoved, and even forbade his subordinate officials to inquire.

Sikong Zhang Xi came to ask, but he also politely declined on the grounds of poor health.

For the matter of how to address Yuan Shao, he doesn't want to see Zhang Xi now.

He also knew the relationship between Zhang Xi and Wang Yi, and wanted to see how Zhang Xi would solve this matter.

Zhang Xi stood in the tent, pacing back and forth like ants on a hot pot.

After weighing it over and over for a long time, he sent someone to Yang Dingying to find Yang Xiu.

-

Yang Xiu was dressed in court clothes, with a tidy crown and belt, and walked slowly into the big tent.

He stopped in front of Liu Xie, held the tablet in both hands, and gave a big gift respectfully.

Liu Xie, who was reviewing the official documents, heard the voice and raised his head.

Seeing Yang Xiuwan's solemn expression, he was taken aback for a moment, then regained his composure, and slowly put down the pen in his hand.

"Come here for Wang Yi?"

"Yes."

"You also have a relationship with Wang Yi?"

"Wang Yi's teacher, former Taiwei Liu Kuanwenrao, is from Huayin. He attended the Guanghua Hall together with his ancestor Bo Xiangong (Yang Ci) and the old Sikong Zhang Jiyuanjiang. He also remonstrated with Liu Taoziqi about the Yellow Turban."

Hearing about Guanghua Palace, Liu Xie was somewhat impressed.

Guanghua Hall was the place where the late emperor studied. Many famous teachers and Confucian scholars were invited to give lectures, among which Yang Xiu's grandfather Yang Ci was the most famous.

Liu Xie was still young at that time, and he was raised by the Empress Dowager Dong in Nangong, so he could not participate in it. It was only after hearing the late emperor mention something that he didn't have a deep impression.

It turned out that Liu Kuan and Zhang Ji were also teaching with Yang Ci.

Liu Kuan is actually from Huayin, and he is from the same hometown as Yang Ci.

With so many relationships mixed together, it is indeed impossible for Yang Xiu to die.

Liu Xie immediately thought that Wang Yi dared to cover for Wei Gu, and he probably got the tacit approval of Taiwei Yang Biao.If Yang Biao disagreed, Wang Yi would not be able to tell the lie by himself.

Liu Xie was angry in his heart, and his face was a little ugly.

"In your opinion, how should we deal with Wang Yi?"

Yang Xiu had a well-thought-out plan, and said unhurriedly: "Let the lieutenant Ting inquire carefully, but the penalty should not be abused, so as not to be suspected of torture. If Wang Yizhen colluded with Wei Gu and killed him, wouldn't it be cheaper for him?"

Liu Xie breathed a sigh of relief, and his face gradually recovered. "Why did he go to Tingwei? Did he go by himself, or was it ordered by Situ?"

"It was Situ's order." Yang Xiu said: "I just came from Situ's tent, Situ was furious, and the situation is very bad."

The corner of Liu Xie's mouth twitched. "Is it?"

"The minister dare not deceive the king."

Liu Xie stood up. "Go, go see Situ."

Chapter 183 To start over, clean up the old mountains and rivers

Zhao Wen struggled to get up from the bed, tears streaming down his face.

"Your Majesty, I am ashamed."

Liu Xie really wanted to ask him where he was ashamed, but the words had already reached his lips, and he swallowed them back.

When dealing with veterans, especially veterans who are willing to admit their mistakes, they should save some face.

"Situ Yan is serious." Liu Xie held Zhao Wen's hand and patted it lightly. "Situ has a good rest, works hard to add meals, and strives for a speedy recovery. I and the big man can't live without Situ for a day."

Zhao Wen felt even more guilty, tears streaming out uncontrollably.

Sitting in Zhao Wen's tent for a while, Liu Xie got up and said goodbye.

Originally, it was just a formality, to give Zhao Wen face and encouragement.

If you sit for too long, you will give too much face, which is not beautiful.

This is also the truth that he has just realized recently.

I've heard of it before, but never had a chance to practice it.Now that I have experienced it myself, I know the beauty of it.

Take Zhao Wen as an example, Zhao Wen took it for granted that he gave Zhao Wen face in the past, and he would never be as excited as he is now, with tears in his eyes.

When returning to the imperial tent, Liu Xie glanced at Sikong and Zhang Xi's tent, and then looked away.

For Zhang Xi, he has given up hope.

As a native of Runan, the interests of Zhang Xi and the Yuan family are too deeply entangled, and it is difficult to separate them clearly.

But he can't drive Zhang Xi away directly.

Zhang Xi is also a meritorious minister.

Last year, Zhang Xi participated in drafting a title for his birth mother, Wang Meiren, and proclaiming to the world that he was of the blood of the late emperor, and he made a lot of achievements.

Deposing Zhang Xi easily will only chill more people and force them to support Yuan Shao, which is not in line with the basic principles of the united front.

It's nothing more than the case.

-

Liu Xie put his hands in his sleeves and walked forward slowly.

Yang Xiu followed closely behind, his expression as solemn as before, and he did not relax because Liu Xie accepted his suggestion.

"Is the captain safe?" Liu Xie asked, as if talking to himself.

"Thank you for your concern, my father is fine." Yang Xiu quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

With the emperor's intelligence, it is not difficult to guess Yang Biao's role in it, and it is also easy to guess that he has met Wang Yi and Zhang Xi before meeting him.

The emperor chose not to mention it, as if this incident had never happened, and only cared about the safety of his father Yang Biao, which avoided his embarrassment.

"Is there an answer to the question I asked you last time?" Liu Xie asked.

If Yang Xiu doesn't come to him, he will send someone to find Yang Xiu.

Those twenty Confucian scholars placed his hopes on him, and it was definitely not dispensable, and Yang Xiu couldn't ruin it.

It's just that Yang Xiu is conceited by nature, so he can't criticize directly, he has to pay attention to some methods and detours appropriately.

Yang Xiu thought for a moment, then shook his head. "I have no idea yet, please give me some more time, Your Majesty."

"It's okay, you can think slowly." Liu Xie laughed softly, and turned to look at Yang Xiu. "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. When you start thinking, it means you have taken the most important step."

Yang Xiu smiled ashamedly, feeling very complicated.

He is obviously a few years older than the emperor, but when it comes to these issues, he is like a child, with no confidence at all.

Ten years of hard study is of no use at all.

"How about the Confucian scholars you bring, are there any available?"
