The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

The coin changed again in Yu Ji's hand, twisted in the air as Yu Ji threw it, and soon fell into his hand again with a wave of Yu Ji's arm.

Yu Ji stared at the coins in his hand and took a closer look.

Finally, under the expectant eyes of everyone, he said something to Liu Zheng.

"Your Majesty, the hexagram does not fully reveal what you are asking about, so at this time, I am not very good at telling your Majesty accurately, but there are two things shown in the hexagram, I think it is necessary to tell your majesty."

"What content?"

As soon as Liu Zheng heard Yu Ji's words, he immediately became interested and asked Yu Ji immediately.

"First, according to the hexagram, the world must be united for a long time. Now it has been divided into several parts, but there must be a person who will rise up in the troubled times and unite the divided world again. This person is Your Majesty."

Yu Ji flattered Liu Zheng.

When Liu Zheng heard Yu Ji's words, there was some smile on his face, and he smiled lightly.

"Heh, Immortal Master Yu Ji, don't use such nice words to compliment me, I still have some self-knowledge about my own strength."

"Your Majesty, this is not my compliment. This is a secret. It is said in the hexagram, not me, Yu Ji."

"Okay then, let's say it's in the hexagram, what's the second content?"

"The second content is, Your Majesty, be careful overseas in the near future."

"Be careful overseas? What does that mean?"

"Last night, I watched the stars at night, and there was a greedy wolf star in the east, with a killing spirit. According to the hexagrams I saw today, in the near future, your majesty will have military disasters, starting overseas."

Yu Ji's words were spoken to Liu Zheng, and Liu Zheng was stunned after listening.

Liu Zheng didn't expect Yu Ji to say such a thing.

Although he didn't completely believe what Yu Ji said, but considering the ability Yu Ji showed just now, he couldn't completely disbelieve what he said, so Liu Zheng still wrote down this matter in his heart. matter.

After arresting Xu Gong, Liu Zheng didn't stay in the Taoist temple of Langya Immortal Palace. As the emperor, he still couldn't appear alone in such a place for too long. A large number of people came to assassinate.

There are so many people, even if Liu Zheng is protected by Jin Yiwei, he may not be able to retreat unscathed.

So after Liu Zheng talked to Yu Ji for a few words and invited Yu Ji to Jianye, Liu Zheng got up and said goodbye.

He has to go back to deal with Xu You's affairs.

Returning to Jianye from Langya Immortal Palace, it was already late at night.

Liu Zheng didn't deal with Xu You's matter in a hurry, but took a short rest for the night, and when he went to court the next day, he brought this matter up and said it face-to-face in the court's morning court.

Early the next morning.

In the court meeting of the Jianye Palace, hundreds of civil and military officials lined up on both sides.

Xu You's status was distinguished, and he was located at the front. Even Yuan Zhou, who was the prime minister, could only stand behind him.

After all, the status of the four cabinet assistant ministers is distinguished, and they are individually distinguished from the hundred officials.

"My dear friends, what's going on today?"

Liu Zheng lazily asked many ministers below.

The officials standing in the hall looked at each other after hearing Liu Zheng's questioning, and it was Shi Xie who stood up and spoke first.

"Your Majesty, I have something to announce."

"Go ahead."

"Cao Cao of Funan Prefecture sent someone back today to say that some people's troops are gathering in the west of Funan Prefecture. It seems that there is a place called Piaoguo, who is preparing to gather troops to attack Funan. Cao Cao asked His Majesty to order and allow him to lead troops. Sweep the Pyu country."

After Liu Zheng heard what Shi Xie said, he was a little surprised. He hadn't seen Cao Cao for some days.

The threat of Cao Cao staying by his side is still a bit big, and Liu Zheng also thinks that Cao Cao is a talented person, and he doesn't want him to stay by his side forever, so he sent Cao Cao to manage Funan Prefecture, hoping that Cao Cao can do well in Funan Prefecture develop it.

But now it seems that Cao Cao does have plans to expand the territory of the Han Dynasty, so why would Liu Zheng not allow it?

"Zunzuo, draw up an order immediately and tell Cao Cao that he is allowed to mobilize Zhou Cang's soldiers and horses. Anyone who dares to violate our Han territory will be killed without mercy!"

"Yes."

After Shi Xie finished listening, he immediately took a step back and returned to his position.

After Shi Xie took the lead, some people began to say some things at the meeting, some small things, such as building a new city for a certain county, or where a large amount of mineral resources occurred, development is required.

Some of these small matters, some of which Liu Zheng decided to have no problems, will be played directly, and some of the controversial ones will be put on hold for the time being, and the decision will be made after the four cabinet ministers discuss it later.

In this way, almost everything that should be said was said at the court meeting soon.

Liu Zheng took the initiative to speak at this time after seeing that no one continued to stand up.

"Is there anything else to start with? If not, then I have something here that I need to talk to everyone about."

Liu Zheng paused for a moment, and then continued speaking after seeing that no one spoke.

"Yuan Zhou, bring someone up."

Liu Zheng gave an order to Yuan Zhou, and Yuan Zhou nodded and immediately shouted out of the hall.

"Bring the criminal Xu Gong here!"

As soon as Yuan Zhou said these words, the faces of the ministers present immediately changed, and they all exclaimed.

Chapter 861 Disposing of Xu You

The ministers present are all close ministers of Liu Zheng, and they are all aware of the recent river demon incident.

They who knew the river demon incident clearly knew that the final mastermind of this incident was Xu Gong, the steward of the bank in Changsha County.

When Xu Gong's name was mentioned one day, some of them immediately changed their expressions.

Especially Xu You, he knew exactly who Xu Gong was and what he had committed.

If Xu Gong was really caught by Liu Zheng, he might be implicated.

The expression on Xu You's face became extremely ugly.

But at this moment, he still looked out of the hall.

He wanted to see if the prisoner Xu Gong brought in was the Xu Gong he knew.

There was a trace of expectation on Xu You's face, hoping that the person who was arrested was not his clan.

But obviously, his expectations were in vain.

Xu Gong, who was brought in by several Jinyi guards, was his clan, that is, the manager of the bank in Changsha County.

Na Xu Gong was bound and pushed in by several Jin Yiwei, with a panicked expression on his face.

At this place, even if Xu Gong had some thoughts of heroic sacrifice at the beginning, it is gone now, because he knows that his ending cannot be changed, no matter whether he pleads guilty or not, Liu Zheng has the ability to kill him .

And to the main hall at this time.Many things are beyond his control.

Xu Gong was brought into the main hall, he didn't speak, but stood in front of everyone in panic.

Liu Zheng first spoke to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

"My dear friends, I think you all know this person."

"The river demon farce that caused a lot of trouble before, and the money loss case of the bank. This person is behind the scenes."

"It's him who embezzled 2000 million yuan from the bank. And, he made a farce of a shipwrecked river demon."

Liu Zheng spoke to the civil and military officials below, although his tone was flat.

But there was a lot of resentment in the words.

All these civil and military officials could hear Liu Zheng's anger towards Xu Gong from Liu Zheng's words.

The civil and military officials below dare not say a word for a moment.

He could only listen to Liu Zheng's lectures quietly.

"Xu Gong has fully confessed. Everyone involved in the bank corruption incident in Changsha County will be executed this time. This will serve as a warning to you!"

Of course, there were not many high-ranking officials involved in Xu Gong's matter, and the ones involved were nothing more than some insignificant people.

Those people were killed as soon as they were killed, and the civil and military officials in the court would not feel sorry for it.

It's just that Liu Zheng's attitude towards this matter, the determination shown by him shocked them.

"I have to criticize the fact that there is only one other person besides this!"

Everyone was beheading all the civil and military officials involved in this matter because Liu Zheng was so determined.

At this time, I heard Liu Zheng say that there was one more person who did it right away.He pricked up his ears and wanted to hear who Liu Zheng was talking about.

"Xu You, are you guilty of this matter?"

Xu You's expression was already very ugly. After all, after Xu Gong was arrested, he would definitely be involved in this matter.

Speaking of which, Xu Gong was his chosen clan relative.At the lightest, he also has a crime of unknown person.

At this time, when he heard Liu Zheng directly pointing himself out at the court meeting, Xu You leaned forward in fright.

Obediently fell to his knees.

"Your Majesty, I am convicted."

Xu You didn't even argue. Since Liu Zheng has already put this on the table, it means that Liu Zheng already has conclusive evidence. It is useless to continue to argue, and it will cause Liu Zheng's anger. disgust.

Seeing Xu You's attitude, Liu Zheng felt a little less angry at this moment.

"What crime did you turn over, tell yourself."

Liu Zheng didn't directly punish Xu You, but asked back, wanting to see if Xu You knew what crime he had committed.

Xu You's expression froze for a moment, although he was a little dull, but he also clearly understood that Liu Zheng wanted him to personally explain what crime he had committed. Go up and start counting your sins.

"Firstly, I didn't know who I was, so I mistrusted Na Xu Gong, which led to a catastrophe. This time, I take the secondary responsibility."

"Well, you still have a little self-knowledge."

"Secondly, Xu Gong accepted a bribe of three hundred qian from Xu Gong not long ago, which is also a crime. However, I haven't touched any of the money, and I have returned all of it to the Changsha Bank a few days ago."

Xu You is still a smart person, and he immediately told Liu Zheng all about himself.

After Liu Zheng heard what Xu You said, he originally wanted to deal with Xu You severely, but now he is not so angry.

Knowing mistakes can make a big difference. Although Xu You made some mistakes, this kind of thing is not a major mistake. Liu Zheng has understood Xu You's character for a long time.

In history, he was a money-grubbing person. Apart from being greedy for money, he was also a bit arrogant.

Originally, Liu Zheng wanted to be dismissed and investigated to let Xu You calm down. Now that he heard that Xu You had returned all Xu Gong's money, he also understood that Xu You had understood.

"Ziyuan, although these two crimes are not fatal, they are also shameful. As the chief assistant of the cabinet, you have not given a good head to the civil and military officials, and you must be punished for this matter!"

"Because you have followed me for many years, you have contributed so much. Let me temporarily remove your official position and go to Changsha County to manage the bank in person. If this matter is not handled well, I will be punished severely!"

Liu Zheng still misses some old love and is unwilling to kill Xu You directly. Although Xu You has some crimes, it is not enough for Liu Zheng to really kill him.

Seeing Liu Zheng's angry appearance, Xu You's heart skipped a beat. He thought he was going to die this time. After all, he had followed Liu Zheng for such a long time, and he was the one who was most familiar with Liu Zheng's temper.

Now after hearing Liu Zheng's answer, Xu You immediately felt that after he didn't give himself to death, he just gave you a body shape. Our revolution has not yet succeeded, and the world has not yet been unified. It is not enough to covet enjoyment. A gentleman loves money and obtains it in a proper way , I hope you can understand, otherwise Skynet will be restored and will not be missed. "

After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he stood up from the dragon chair and left with a flick of his sleeves.

A court meeting broke up like this.

Only those ministers were left, looking at each other, you look at me, I look at you, and helped Xu You who was kneeling on the ground, and slowly left the hall.

Chapter 862

In the next few months, the world was peaceful.

As soon as winter arrives.

It should have been a chaotic world, but in the winter of 191 years, it seemed a bit dull.

The situation in the north, because of Yuan Shao's death, the two brothers Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang are busy fighting at the moment, and they have no time to manage Liu Zheng.

And Liu Bei, who fled back to Yanzhou, suffered heavy losses. In addition, it was winter and it was not suitable to raise troops, so he could only cultivate temporarily. The court focused more on the Xiliang area.

Therefore, this winter, for Liu Zheng, was very peaceful.

The commerce and agriculture under him can be fully developed. However, he does not need to be fully responsible for these things now. The responsible officials of various departments will temporarily manage them. He only needs to summarize the information pushed by these officials. That's all.

The quiet time has been passed for half a year, and the time has come to March 192.
