At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

Guo Jin shook her head: "Where are the others? Is there anyone else to speak to Zhang Fei?"

"Nothing."

Lu Yi shook his head: "Under such circumstances, it's not easy not to follow suit. When Zhang Fei falls, someone will take over his position. There should be quite a few people eager to take over by now."

"That's true, it's not bad if you don't follow the trouble."

Guo Jin was thinking about Zhang Fei's punishment and a series of subsequent arrangements when suddenly Zhang De came to report again.

"Your Majesty, General Zhang asks to see His Majesty."

Guo Jin looked at Lu Yi.

"finally come."

"See you, Your Majesty?"

"See, why don't you see me? It's not my purpose to punish Zhang Yide. Temporarily punishing Zhang Yide is still useful to keep Zhang Yide. After all, he is such a general who is good at fighting. The art of war calls ten thousand soldiers to drive. As long as I can give Zhang Yide ten thousand elite soldiers, I will I believe he can do a lot of things we didn't expect."

Guo Jin smiled, and raised her hand to ask Zhang De to bring Zhang Fei in.

Punishment of Zhang Fei is a means, not an end. Guo Jin's real purpose is to take this opportunity to attack Zhao Yun's prestige, as well as enhance his voice in the army, successfully control the real power of the army, and prevent the appearance of a second Zhang Fei.

In comparison, Zhang Fei itself is just an insignificant pawn.

Now that this chess piece has played the expected role, it is time to throw him aside and reflect.

Whether there is another chance to take advantage of him in the future, let's talk.

Chapter 1482 One thousand three hundred and ninety two The new emperor is a little soft?

When Zhang Fei was brought into the palace, his mental state was not quite right.

Sweeping away yesterday's unrestrained and fearless, Zhang Fei at this moment is quite cautious and timid.

He didn't even dare to offend the [eunuch] eunuch who he usually looked down upon, so he slapped Zhang De with a big eunuch.

"Is Your Majesty very angry, Chief Internal Officer?"

"Chairman, will His Majesty punish me?"

"Secretary, is Your Majesty still angry?"

"Senior officer, you should say something!"

Zhang Fei kept asking questions, just wanting to know something to make himself feel at ease.

Otherwise, how could he feel at ease?

But Zhang De was annoyed by his questions.

He didn't dare to have any contact with these generals who were leading the troops abroad.

The predecessors taught that if the people who serve the emperor want to live a long life, they must not have any private contacts with foreign ministers, especially foreign generals, and it is best not to even talk to each other.

Otherwise, who knows when the news leaks, the guy who eats will move.

So Zhang De replied to Zhang Fei angrily.

"General Zhang, don't ask too many questions. You'll know when you go anyway. Your Majesty was not angry just now, but now, the slaves don't know."

"Oh, then... it's fine if you're not angry, it's fine if you're not angry."

Zhang Fei nodded repeatedly.

To be honest, the experience just now really frightened Zhang Fei, who is fearless today.

After Guan Yu woke him up, he came to the palace to ask Guo Jin to save him. He stood alone in the room for a long time, and finally understood what happened. He quickly asked his wife and children about the situation.

Don't ask, don't know, I'm startled when I ask.

The emperor had sent someone to let him enter the palace to defend himself, but he fell asleep and couldn't wake up no matter how much he shouted.

The emperor was furious when he learned that he was furious in the South study.

Zhang Fei was terrified.

Zhao Yun's impeachment of him has already made him unexpected, and now the emperor is furious again, and his impression of him has directly turned into a negative value. Now he is simply ineffective every day.

No, it's useless to stand still, you have to go to the palace and think of a way.

Zhang Fei dressed indiscriminately and ran out of the mansion.

After arriving at the palace, Zhang Fei met Guan Ping.

Guan Ping told Zhang Fei that he had become the target of public criticism, and many people followed Zhao Yun to impeach him.

Zhang Fei was afraid and angry.

He was still a little confused before, suspecting that he had nothing against Zhao Yun, and why Zhao Yun did such a thing, but now he was very sure that Zhao Yun wanted to kill him.

how could be?

"I have known Zhao Zilong for 30 years! Why would he do such a thing!"

Zhang Fei stamped his feet angrily.

Guan Ping had his own views on such matters, but he didn't want to say more, he felt that it would be useless to tell Zhang Fei about some things.

"Father has already gone to the palace to plead with His Majesty, Uncle Yide, now my father is as dangerous as you."

Zhang Fei blinked and reached out to hold Guan Ping's hand.

"Frankly, in the end, only your father treats me sincerely!"

Having said that, Zhang Fei hastily asked to meet Guo Jin, asking to explain what he had done to the emperor.

It's just that it seemed a bit late. When he saw the emperor, the emperor had a cold face, as if he didn't want to see him very much.

"General Zhang, this is not the first time you met Gu. When Gu was not the emperor, he met you many times and fought side by side. At that time, you still obeyed the commander's orders. How time has passed. You started disobeying the commander's orders?"

It was difficult for Zhang Fei to answer the emperor's first sentence.

He did swell and float.

During the war, when he got an order, he thought that there was no one in charge of him, Zhao Yun was lenient, the new emperor also had a reputation of lenient, Cao Ren retired, the old emperor also retired, who else could compete with him Woolen cloth?

The answer is no.

So he started his battle with great enthusiasm, and he fought more and more, and he felt that he had made a lot of contributions. How could he think that he would face such a situation?

He hesitated and couldn't tell why.

"This is a serious violation of military regulations and discipline!"

Guo Jin slapped the table hard, scaring Zhang Fei enough.

"Disobeying orders and leaving without permission, leading troops to attack without permission, the commander-in-chief couldn't even contact you during the entire battle! Where did you put yourself? Where did you put the five thousand pioneers? That is, Kang Ju is weak and cannot fight with me. Confrontation, if you change to a strong enemy, your 5000 people will be buried in the hinterland of the enemy country!

Since Wei Qiang's army was founded, there has never been a whole army wiped out by the establishment!If such a thing happened on the battlefield where Gu sent troops for the first time, how would people in the world think of Gu?What would the Supreme Emperor think of Gu? ! "

Guo Jin roared again and again, unable to lift Zhang Fei's scolding head, and couldn't think of defending herself at all.

Although he felt that he had won the battle and shouldn't be so harshly criticized, under the fear, he no longer knew how to defend himself.

Standing in front of the emperor is more terrifying than facing thousands of troops.

At this time, he clearly felt it.

No matter how many enemies he faces, no matter how powerful the enemy is, he will not feel afraid, at most he wants to turn his head and run away, but at this moment, he has no way to escape, and what he is facing is the emperor's wrath. desperate situation.

"Your Majesty...the minister...the minister is guilty."

In the end, under Guo Jin's anger, Zhang Fei could only bow his head and confess his guilt, admit his mistake to the emperor, and express to the emperor that he was really at fault-maybe it would be better.

Zhang Fei imagined so.

Guo Jin didn't intend to beat Zhang Fei to death at first, he just wanted to achieve certain goals by suppressing Zhang Fei, so he accepted Zhang Fei's confession.

"Although you defeated the enemy this time and made great contributions, but you violated the military regulations first, didn't know your mistakes later, and committed public anger. I can't forgive you alone. I will dismiss you as the commander-in-chief of the three garrison troops in the Western Regions. Cut off five hundred townships, keep your military rank and title, and go back to your hometown to take care of yourselves!"

Zhang Fei raised his lowered head all of a sudden.

dismissed?

My job is gone?

I……

Can no longer lead troops?

Zhang Fei was in a hurry.

"Your Majesty! I'm guilty! But my... Your Majesty, please don't let me go back to my hometown. With my temperament, I will die if I don't fight. I really will die!"

Zhang Fei suddenly rolled his eyes: "Otherwise, His Majesty will simply exile the minister, to Mozhou, Pingzhou, Yunzhou, Jiaozhou, whatever, and let the minister serve as an army!"

"Leave your..."

Guo Jin almost couldn't hold back the swearing: "That's what the former Han did! I, Wei, didn't say anything about exile! My Wei army is all recruited and trained! It's not for punishment! You've lost your mind!"

Guo Jin yelled angrily, but Zhang Fei looked miserable.

"Your Majesty, if I can no longer fight wars, I will really be dead. Your Majesty, please comfort and comfort the old minister! Really, it would be fine even if I were demoted to an ordinary soldier and sent to the border, Your Majesty!"

Zhang Fei cried and asked Guo Jinfa to match him, saying that he would not want anything, but he could not leave the battlefield, and he would die if he left the battlefield.

Guo Jin was so angry that he almost lost his breath, and ordered the imperial army to come in.

Four big men from the Forbidden Army rushed forward and lifted Zhang Fei up.

"Drive him out of the palace! Drive him back to his hometown and stay there honestly! Don't leave his hometown without orders!"

Guo Jin was furious.

So Zhang Fei cried and was dragged out by the four big men of the Forbidden Army, and thrown back to the mansion. He forced Zhang's family to pack their luggage and leave Luoyang within a time limit to return to their hometown.

This news can be said to have shocked the entire Luoyang city for a whole day.

The news quickly spread from the South Study Room to the court, and then quickly spread to Luoyang City.

Zhang Fei was fired and sent back to his hometown.

But he didn't want to, so he cried and begged for mercy. As a result, the emperor forced the emperor to send out the forbidden army to drive him out of the palace, throw him into the house, and force Zhang's family to pack up and leave Luoyang as soon as possible.

Many people were wondering how Zhang Fei would be punished, but none of them guessed right.

Most people are speculating that Zhang Fei will be fired and his family will be implicated.

Some even looked at such a big battle with dark thoughts, thinking that according to Guo Peng's tradition at that time, Zhang Fei could not escape death.

As a result, Zhang Fei was only relieved of his position and power, deprived of power, lost five hundred households, and was driven out of Luoyang and returned to his hometown. He did not lose his title and military rank.

In addition, Zhang Fei's family has not been implicated.

Two of his sons are still serving in the army, and his two underage sons have not lost their school status and can still study in the lecture hall.

This is equivalent to such a big battle. Zhao Yun led so many generals to do things together, but Zhang Fei was relieved of his position. Zhang Fei himself has no problem.

This seems a bit unsatisfactory to some dark-minded people.

They always felt that if such a thing happened in Guo Peng's era, the lack of security would be another Wei Xiao case, another major military case that was passed around as a deterrent and admonishment.

Guo Peng will definitely not let Zhang Fei go.

But in Guo Jin's place, the matter passed like this.

Even in the case of Le Jin, which was as bad as it was at the beginning, Le Jin didn't even take any substantive actions in the army. Because of a letter and a certain trend, Le Jin paid a great price for it, and the whole family was punished. One pot loses power.

But Zhang Fei only lost his power personally, and his sons were not affected.

If Le Jin knew about this, he would be more and more angry, and he would probably die of anger.

The old people who have come from Guo Peng's era don't quite understand this. They always feel that this is not enough. If it were Guo Peng, it would be more vicious, and the price Zhang Fei would have to pay would be greater, not like this time. The feeling of heavy rain and small raindrops.

The new emperor...

A little softer?

For a moment, they actually had such a feeling.

This matter was not over yet, and immediately, the emperor issued an order to reward the only person who stood up to speak for Zhang Fei during the whole process, that is, Guan Yu.
