Cao Ang was in prison?
He had come out of the Imperial Palace and was on his way back to Misty Villa when he was assassinated?
Liu Hong suddenly felt a little incredulous. It was as if he was listening to a heavenly book!
Motherf * cker!
At Tian Zi's feet.
Clear and bright!
There was actually an assassination attempt?
Moreover, the assassin was none other than Cao Ang, whom he valued highly?
A nameless anger ignited in Liu Hong's heart. It instantly turned into a monstrous flame and rushed to his throat.
"What did you say?"
"Cao Ang is in prison?"
"His father has just established his military achievements, and someone wants to assassinate him?”
"Speak! What's going on?"
Liu Hong threw a series of questions at Zhang Mao like a machine gun.
What a joke!
Laozi was still hoping that Cao Ang would contribute his rations.
Who was this blind guy who dared to assassinate Cao Ang?
"This…"
Without waiting for Zhang Mao to speak, Yuan Kui, who was beside him, took a step forward.""Your Majesty, this old subject is guilty."
Liu Hong waved his hand and said coldly,""Yuan Qing, this has nothing to do with you.”
Yuan Kui couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He waved his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead and said softly,"I won't hide it from Your Majesty. The one who assassinated Cao Ang was the eldest son of my nephew, Yuan Shao!”
"What?"
Liu Hong was shocked.
He suddenly turned his head to look at Yuan Kui, his face filled with disbelief."What did you say? Who assassinated Cao Ang?"
At this point, Yuan Kui could no longer hide anything. He could only tell the truth and fight for the initiative."It's this old minister's nephew, Yuan Shao's son, Yuan Tan!”
"Your Majesty, you should know that Cao Ang bought Misty Villa at a low price. However, with the excavation of black gold, the value of Misty Villa soared. This old minister criticized my nephew Yuan Shao.”
"Perhaps."
Speaking up to this point, Yuan Kui could only try his best to help the Yuan Family gain the initiative."Perhaps Yuan Tan couldn't bear to see his father being humiliated, so he decided to teach Cao Ang a lesson with the twenty or thirty rangers near Luoyang.”
Look!
Yuan Kui really knew how to absolve himself.
He changed Yuan Tan's motive for assassinating him into standing up for his father without leaving a trace.
This was f * cking filial piety!
One had to know that back then, he had dealt with a prisoner on death row. It was because that person was avenging his mother that he was spared the death penalty.
And now, Yuan Kui was also using filial piety as a starting point to fight for the initiative for his family. This was clearly the rhythm of protecting his own family.
Liu Hong was very shrewd.
He saw through it with a glance.
however
This was nothing.
This Yuan Kui actually downplayed the assassination as teaching someone a lesson?
He was really too shameless.
Who would find 20 to 30 Rangers to teach someone a lesson?
This was clearly a murder!
Liu Hong suddenly calmed down.
The Yuan family rarely revealed any flaws. Even if something happened, it would be completely wiped out before Shangda Heaven could hear it.
However, it was different this time.
Cao Ang's matter could no longer be concealed.
Liu Hong had to use this incident to teach the Yuan family a lesson.
He wanted to let them know who was the true emperor of the Great Han Dynasty!
"Yuan Qing, don't say anymore."
Liu Hong waved his hand and interrupted Yuan Kui on the spot. He said coldly,""This matter involves the meritorious Cao Cao, and I want to interrogate him personally. Zhang Qing, immediately bring Cao Ang and that person over.”
"Yuan Tan," Zhang Mao replied.
"Oh right, Yuan Tan."
Liu Hong ordered," Bring Cao Ang and Yuan Tan to Chongde Hall immediately. I want to interrogate this case personally. I believe that this case is being interrogated by the Luo Yang Magistrate. Bring me the results of the trial that he submitted."”
Zhang Maoxin said.
Great!
This time, he couldn't even cover up for her.
After all, it was the emperor's order. No matter how powerful the four dukes were, could they be stronger than the emperor?
Zhang Mao had no choice but to promise and send people to the Supreme Court to bring Cao Ang and Yuan Tan to the imperial palace for interrogation.
Good fellow!
When the guards took Cao Ang and Yuan Tan away.
When Yuan Tan heard that he would be brought to the Imperial Palace for trial, his body immediately collapsed from fear. Like a pool of mud, he was forcefully dragged to Chongde Hall.
Faced with the royal family's prestige, the bright gazes of all the civil and military officials in the hall, the helpless gazes of Yuan Kui and Yuan Ji, Yuan Tan was so scared that he peed his pants. His entire body trembled, and he could not even stand steadily, let alone salute the Emperor!
On the other hand, Cao Ang!
He was calm and collected, his actions were appropriate, and he was extremely gentlemanly.
Cao Ang bowed and shouted,""This commoner greets our emperor, long live, long live, long live.”
"Alright!" Liu Hong waved his hand. I ask you, after you left the palace yesterday, were you assassinated?”
Cao Ang nodded." Your Majesty, I left the palace yesterday and just left Luoyang City. Before I could return to Misty Villa, I was attacked by a group of black men!"”
"Oh, right!"
Cao Ang deliberately added," Zhou Yi, the magistrate of Luoyang, has already sent people to investigate the scene. I killed 15 assassins. I personally caught one of them. Seven or eight escaped. The total number should be around 20 or 30."”
"Yuan Tan had already confessed to this matter at the county government office. It must have been mentioned in the document of the Luo Yang Order.”
"But…"
" Yuan Tan is about the same age as this commoner," Cao Ang emphasized." How could he have the ability and financial resources to organize twenty or thirty rangers to assassinate this commoner?"”
"Therefore, I suspect that Yuan Tan is just a chess piece. There should be a mastermind behind him. The person who really wants to kill me is not Yuan Tan, but someone else.”
At this point, Cao Ang bowed deeply."I hope Your Majesty will understand!"
F * ck!
Observing my ass.
Cao Ang, this brat, was clearly pointing his sword at the Yuan Family.
That Yuan Kui was indeed someone who had seen the world. Even after being slandered by Cao Ang, he did not lose his composure.
On the contrary, Zhang Mao the chief justice of the Supreme Court opened his mouth,"Your Majesty, this person's suspicion is not without reason. Yuan Tan is still young, after all, and it is not impossible for him to be bewitched by others and do some foolish things.”
"Oh?" Liu Hong couldn't help but be curious." Then, according to Zhang Qing's words, who is the person who bewitched Yuan Tan?”
Zhang Mao bowed and cupped his hands." Your Majesty, on the surface, Cao Ang and the Yuan Family have had some friction because of Misty Villa. However, I don't think the Yuan Family will be reduced to assassins because of a villa."”
"Thus, I can't determine the mastermind for the time being, so I can only send people to continue investigating.”
What the f * ck!
What a clever mouth.
Cao Ang was filled with admiration.
This group of scholars was indeed worthy of being scholars. They were really good at retreating in order to advance. Even Cao Ang himself could not help but want to give them a thumbs up.
Cao Ang turned to Zhang Mao and said softly,""Lord Zhang's thinking is meticulous, this commoner admires him. However, Yuan Tan's attempted murder is a fact.”
The meaning was clear.
Kill?
