"Captain."

"The minister is here." Yang Biao bowed and saluted, subconsciously holding his breath.

Liu Xie turned his head slightly, looking at Yang Biao with burning eyes. "Are you a party member?"

"The minister... is not among the party members."

"Why?" Liu Xie pursed his lips slightly. "Is it the Taiwei who doesn't like them, or they don't like the Taiwei?"

"..." Yang Biao didn't know how to answer.

Cai Yan, who was in charge of recording, looked up and then lowered his head again.

Liu Xie stared at Yang Biao without blinking.

Yang Biao couldn't avoid it, and sighed softly.

"Your Majesty, although the party members are kingly in their hearts, they act extremes and are not in line with the golden mean. I dare not agree."

Liu Xie withdrew his gaze and nodded slightly. "What the Taiwei said is very true, too much is too much, it is not the nature of a minister."

The corners of Yang Biao's mouth twitched, he took off his crown, and put him upright on the mat, with his hands folded, he bowed and bowed, his forehead resting on the back of his hands.

"Your Majesty, my minister..."

"I'm tired." Liu Xie waved his hand. "The Taiwei must be tired after running around all day. Let's go to bed early."

Yang Biao wanted to play again, but Liu Xie got up and went back to the tent.

Yang Biao froze, lying on the ground, motionless.

Cai Yan came over and stretched out his hand to help. "Duke Yang, the Son of Heaven is very angry, you should go and rest first."

Yang Biao got up dumbly, looked at the swaying tent door, sighed softly, got up and went out of the tent.

-

Cai Yan stayed in the tent alone, finished writing the items in the daily life note, and then retired to the internal tent.

Back in the small tent, she sat down in front of the desk, spread out her brush and ink, and was about to copy the daily notes, but she was distracted for a while, with a lot of thoughts, and she couldn't help but sigh.

She really wanted to talk to someone, but she didn't know who to talk to.

She can tell Tang Ji any thoughts or experiences she had before.Now Tang Ji stayed in Anyi City, she only had colleagues around her, not even anyone who spoke her mind.

After thinking for a while, she got up and picked it up in the bookcase, found a volume of "The Biography of the Party", put it on the desk, and found some blank bamboo slips, tied them with leather cords, then picked up the pen and wrote a line Character.

-

Scholar Sun Rui sat opposite Wei Jie and Ju Jun, looking depressed.

They just received a message from Yang Biao.

Although the emperor did not make any comments on Shi Sun Rui's behavior, the sentence "too much is too much, not a minister's body" made them feel a deep chill.

Even Yang Biao has lost face, who else can mediate?

Shi Sunrui sighed and said: "Tomorrow morning, I will go to apologize to His Majesty, and Bo Jun will act as your agent for the affairs in the camp."

Wei Jie quickly shook his hand. "Junrong, no."

Shi Sunrui looked at Wei Jie with puzzled eyes.

Wei Jie said: "The Son of Heaven is dissatisfied, which is expected. But he didn't issue an edict, probably because he didn't want to cause trouble in the city. You left the army and rushed to plead guilty tomorrow morning. What is your intention? To force the Son of Heaven to pardon you , or punish you?"

Shi Sunrui stroked his beard and pondered for a while. "So what? You can't pretend to be deaf and dumb and pretend nothing happened."

"Although Wei Gu has surrendered, Fan Xian has not yet surrendered, and there are not a few counties who are obedient and violative. At this time, the discord between the monarch and the ministers will make people laugh and delay the important affairs of the emperor? For now, we can only treat it as if nothing happened. Whether you have merit or demerit, let's wait until Anyi is pacified."

Jujun agrees. "Guo Tu didn't know his whereabouts. He either went into hiding or rushed to Jizhou overnight. Judging from Wei Gu's confession, he may have guessed the changes in Shangdang and Hanoi, and he should have informed Yuan Shao. If there is no accident, Shangdang , There will be wars in Hanoi soon. If the rebellion in Anyi cannot be quelled quickly, there will inevitably be people who will echo Yuan Shaoyao, so we must guard against it."

Shi Sun Rui looked at Wei Jie and then at Ju Jun, feeling grateful.

He understood what they meant.

Pleading guilty at this time, if the emperor dismissed him, he would have no chance to make up for it.

Taking advantage of the fact that the emperor has not made it clear, moving troops to fight, put down the rebellion of Fan Xian and others, and make atonement, there may be a glimmer of opportunity.

This is not his personal gain or loss, but the expectation of all foreign ministers.

This is the best opportunity for the outer dynasty to regain the power that was occupied by the inner dynasty, and it cannot be given up.

Although Wei Jie and Ju Jun knew soldiers, their merits were not enough to serve as Taiwei, and they didn't even have the ability to command the Northern and Southern armies in combat.

Not to mention other people, they are a bit reluctant to do their current jobs well.

Perhaps the emperor saw this and couldn't find a more suitable person to replace him, so he held back his breath.

It will be hard to say in the future.

The opportunity is not to be missed, the time will never come, and the time left for them is these few years.

Shi Sunrui sighed secretly, feeling very uneasy in his heart, always feeling that he was suspected of taking advantage of others' danger, which is not what a gentleman should do.

This is not in line with his usual code of conduct.

Sure enough, once a person wants something, he is no longer free.

Shi Sunrui shook his head, shook off the distracting thoughts in his mind, coughed twice, and took out a roll of bamboo slips from the side.

"Let's talk about tomorrow's arrangements. Wei Gu has already surrendered, and the properties and supplies in the village have been counted almost, and there are quite a lot of them. How to deal with them, let's get a charter together."

"What rules are there?" Ju Jun grabbed it and threw it aside. "If it wasn't for Duke Yang, the Wei clan would have been wiped out. You took the risk of offending the emperor and spared his life. Shouldn't he have donated half of his family property in repayment for not killing him? Besides, the food in the county storehouse, he I must have taken less, shouldn't I spit it out and double the compensation?"

Sun Rui was astonished.

Wei Jie couldn't help laughing, pointing at Ju Jun and said, "I never thought that you, Ju Yuanying, would sometimes break your promise and rob people."

Chapter 209 Xun Yu Advises

Ju Jun disagrees.

"This kind of mediocre person is not worthy of faith. If he sincerely asked to surrender, how could he send Guo Tu away? It's nothing more than two ends of the first mouse, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. If Yuan Shao gains power, he will rebel again. Instead of staying It’s better to take this opportunity to dig his foundations.”

Scholars Sun Rui and Wei Jie deeply agreed.

Wei Gu has served as a meritorious officer in the county for many years, and he has gained a lot of benefits from the prefect Wang Yi.This time, in order to strengthen the wall and clear the field, a large amount of grain was stolen from the county warehouse.Before Wei Gu fulfilled his promise and handed over half of his family property, he should first hand over his money from corruption and pay compensation to atone for his sin.

They don't need to do such a thing, just leave it to the newly appointed prefect Xun Yu.

Shi Sunrui wrote the document overnight, and sent someone to Anyi City early the next morning.

At the same time, he wrote a memorial in his own hand, describing in detail what happened, and requested to move troops to Fan's Manor.

Whether it is merit or demerit is decided by the Son of Heaven.

Around lunch, Shi Sunrui received a reply from the emperor.

The emperor's reply was very simple, he only approved one word on his document: but, there is no superfluous expression.

Seeing that meticulous letter, Shi Sun Rui smiled helplessly.

This thorn is pierced in the heart of the emperor.

In the afternoon, Xun Yu rushed to Daying with relevant officials, took over Wei's manor, and brought Wei Gu to trial.

With the new Cang Cao and Ma Shi present, Wei Gu knew that he had no chance to deny it, so he readily admitted his guilt.

Xun Yu then divided Wei's property.Firstly, he paid Wei Gu for the property he had embezzled from the county over the years, and then stripped off Wei Gu's trilogy and land. Finally, according to the agreement between Wei Gu and Shi Sun Rui, he paid half of the family property in exchange for the lives of his father and son.

After some operations, Wei Gu could only keep a small courtyard, barely enough food to make ends meet, which can be described as destitute.

When hearing the result, Wei Gu fainted immediately.

After being rescued, Wei Gu beat his chest and stamped his feet, cursing endlessly.

"Success is also Ruying, and failure is also Ruying. Is everyone in the world a plaything in the hands of your famous Ruying?"

-

When Xun Yu rushed to the Tianzi camp with the list, he immediately saw Yang Biao standing alone at the tent door.

He followed Yang Biao's line of sight, and then saw the emperor's tent.

Xun Yu got out of the car, walked up to Yang Biao, bowed his hands and called out softly.

"Mr. Yang?"

Yang Biao was startled, and when he came back to his senses, seeing that it was Xun Yu, he smiled, but there was no sound.

Standing outside the tent for too long, my face was stiff from the wind, and I couldn't smile.

When he got up in the morning, the emperor had already left camp, and took a dozen or so Huben servants and Habayashiro to hunt.

He didn't know what the emperor had planned for him, so he had to wait here.

I thought that the emperor would be back in the afternoon at most, but I didn't expect that it was dark and the emperor was not seen.

"Wen Ruo, you are..."

"I just came back from Wei Wei's camp, and I have something to report to the emperor." Xun Yu looked back. "The Son of Heaven is not in the account?"

Yang Biao shook his head and let out a long sigh.

"I heard that I went out to hunt, but I haven't come back yet."

"Hunting?" Xun Yu was taken aback.

Although autumn and winter are indeed a good opportunity for hunting, but Anyi is not safe, the emperor goes privately, and the white dragon fish suits, it is very likely to be dangerous.

"Duke Yang, it's about the safety of the emperor, why don't you make an admonition?"

Yang Biao smiled wryly. "Since you came from Wei Wei's camp, don't you know why?"

Xun Yu really didn't know - Shi Sun Rui didn't tell him this at all - but seeing Yang Biao's expression, he guessed the reason and couldn't help laughing.

"What is Mr. Yang's intention here?" Xun Yu put away his smile and said lightly.

Yang Biao's expression was slightly stagnant, and then it became complicated.

Xun Yu's words reminded him.

What are you doing standing here?

Do you hope that the emperor will not blame you, or do you want to tell others that you have conflicts with the emperor?

In any case, it has the meaning of forcing the emperor to express his position.

"Old and dizzy, with improper behavior, and no body of a minister." Yang Biao stretched out his hand and patted his forehead. "If it wasn't for Wen Ruo's reminder, I would almost make a big mistake again."

"Mr. Yang's words are serious." Xun Yu said: "The weather is cold, Mr. Yang should go to the tent to rest. If there is any news, I will pass it on to you."

Yang Biao bowed his head in salutation, turned around and returned to the account.

Xun Yu watched Yang Biao return to the tent, closed the tent door, turned to look at the emperor's tent in the distance, pondered for a moment, and came to the tent.

After reporting his name, the Lang Guan who kept the account did not dare to neglect, and took the initiative to tell Xun Yu that the emperor had gone hunting and had not yet returned to the camp.

Xun Yu turned around, came to the gate of Daying, and stood with his hands folded.

After waiting for about half an hour, Liu Xie, surrounded by a group of tigers and feather forests, galloped back to the camp with some prey hanging on his horseback.

Xun You was also in the team, wearing a light and close-fitting hunting suit.

Seeing Xun Yu standing outside the camp, Liu Xie was a little surprised and reined in his mount.

"Is something wrong?"

"I have something to do." Xun Yu bowed and saluted. "I went to Wei Wei's camp in the afternoon and thoroughly investigated the case of Wei Gu's corruption of ink, and I came here to report to His Majesty."

The corner of Liu Xie's mouth twitched slightly. "You are the governor of Hedong. If you have anything to report to Situ's mansion, why come to see me?"

"Mr. Zhao is not in good health, and it is related to military rations, farming and many other affairs. It is beyond the Situ Mansion's ability to deal with it. We can only ask His Majesty for instructions."

"Have you seen the captain?"

"seen."

"Taiwei, please go back to Anyi City. Three lords and nine ministers, gather together, why can't things be settled? When they get the charter, I will do it, so why bother."

Liu Xie shook the reins lightly and walked towards the imperial camp.

Xun Yu didn't refute, but clasped his hands and followed Liu Xie.

Xun You dismounted and wanted to hand over the reins to Xun Yu, but Xun Yu refused.
