Mi Han

Chapter 355

Chapter 355

Although it took some time, Fa Miao and Ding Feng led hundreds of tigers, and they arrived outside Wu Yi's mansion soon after.

When Fa Miao arrived outside Wu Yi's mansion, he saw that the gate of Wu Yi's mansion was surprisingly closed under the blue sky and broad daylight.

After seeing this scene, Fa Miao just narrowed his eyes slightly, but Ding Feng showed anxiety on his face.

Ding Feng saw that Fa Miao led the army to Wu Yi's mansion, but he was not in a hurry to go in. He hurriedly said to Fa Miao: "Don't drive, let's lead the army and rush in."

Hearing Ding Feng's suggestion, Fa Miao decisively shook his head to express his disapproval.

"He is General Zhengbei, and he is also a relative of the dynasty."

A short sentence expressed the scruples in Fa Miao's heart.

Ding Feng came from a humble background, and he didn't understand the rules of politics.

He only knows that as Mi Yang's minion, he must faithfully complete every task of his.

Even for that task, the person facing him is Wu Yi, whose status is far above him.

But Fa Miao is different. Fa Miao, who came from a famous family, knows that even if he wants to arrest Deng Xian, he cannot rashly rush into Wu Yi's mansion.

Especially when Wu Yi has no crime.

Otherwise, he would be tearing off the fig leaf among the gentry, and even slapping Liu Bei in the face.

Among meat eaters, the most important thing is decency.

Just like even if Mi Yang's status is higher than Wu Yi's, if he wants to take Wu Yi's military power, he must honor Wu Yi on the surface and compensate Wu Yi afterwards.

What Mi Yang couldn't do, as his subject, he couldn't do even more.

This is also the reason why Fa Miao would tell Mi Yang to let him lead the army.

And the reason why Fa Miao didn't lead the army to rush into Wu Yi's mansion immediately was also because he knew Wu Yi's character.

Based on Wu Yi's contacts in the city, he probably received the news one step in advance.

Under such circumstances, it is very unlikely that Wu Yi would allow Deng Xian to escape privately.

Since this is unlikely to happen, of course Fa Miao is not in a hurry.

Fa Miao looked at the hundreds of tigers behind him, and unexpectedly ordered the tigers behind him to step back and disperse.

In this way, the open space in front of the gate of the Wu Mansion, which was supposed to be surrounded, was exposed.

After giving this order, Fa Miao rode his horse a few steps forward and came to the gate of Wu Mansion.

He raised his head and shouted towards the mansion:

"The governor of the state suddenly heard that Deng Xian was colluding with the rebellious general and buying and selling military rations. He found out that Deng Xian is now in the general's residence, so he led the army to arrest him."

In front of the gate of Wu Mansion, Fa Miao yelled this sentence three times in a row.

And when the three words that Fa Miao yelled were passed through the towering wall to the Wu Mansion, the crowd slowly gathered around also understood the intention of Fa Miao leading the army.

Wu Yi's status is unusual, and the location of his mansion is naturally also the gathering place of dignitaries in Nanzheng City.

The moment Fa Miao led the army into the Limen, many dignitaries who lived in Yili with Wu Yi got the news.

After hearing the news, due to the shock in their hearts, many people came out of their respective mansions and gathered outside Wu Yi's mansion, wanting to see why Mi Yang made such a sudden move.

Could it be to arrest Wu Yi?

Although this conjecture was unlikely, it still appeared in everyone's mind irresistibly.

Now after hearing what Fa Miao said, everyone knew Mi Yang's real intention.

Deng Xian held the important position of Hanzhong Army Zheng, so everyone knew him.

They also knew that Deng Xian was one of Wu Yi's confidantes.

Deng Xian, as an officer of the Hanzhong army, knew how to break the law, so he undoubtedly committed a higher crime. Such a crime is indeed worthy of Mi Yang sending troops to arrest him.

As for why Deng Xian was in Wu Yi's mansion, it probably happened that today was the day when Deng Xian paid a visit to Wu Yi.

Everyone present has their own cronies and subordinates, and it is normal to know this.

After knowing this, the shock in the hearts of the surrounding crowd gradually dissipated.

It's not to arrest Wu Yi for no reason, besides, Fa Miao ordered all the tigers behind him to retreat, which is considered to be a face to Wu Yi.

At least when Wei Yan was in charge of Hanzhong, he was far less powerful than Mi Yang, but his actions were much more unscrupulous than Mi Yang.

He didn't care about the bad influence at all, otherwise how could so many people hate him.

After the shock in their hearts dissipated, everyone immediately felt the mood of watching the excitement.

They were all wondering what Wu Yi would do next.

No matter what Deng Xian said, he was also Wu Yi's old department.

Not long after everyone's curiosity waited, shortly after Fa Miao's three shouts entered Wu Yi's mansion, the gate of Wu Yi's mansion opened slowly under the pull of the servants in the mansion.

When the gate of Wu Yi's mansion was completely opened, the scene inside the gate was fully revealed to the eyes of hundreds of people outside the mansion.

I saw that Deng Xian was tied up and held inside the gate, and it was General Wu Yi and General Wu Ban who were in charge of controlling him.

After seeing this scene, not to mention the crowd of onlookers, even Fa Miao showed surprise on his face.

decisive enough.

After Wu Yi saw Fa Miao at the door, he and Wu Ban escorted Deng Xian towards Fa Miao.

Under Wu Yi's escort, although Deng Xian's face was covered with ashes, he did not struggle at all.

Not to mention Wu Yi's prestige in his heart, but the hundreds of tigers standing outside the door made him unable to think of any resistance.

Not far away, Wu Yi quickly escorted Deng Xian to Fa Miao.

And just before Wu Yi arrived in front of him, Fa Miao jumped off the horse in time.

When Wu Yi and Fa Miao stood facing each other, Wu Yi first bowed to Fa Miao, and said sincerely in front of everyone:

"Yi is not strict with the imperial court, so that there is such a young person like Deng Xian, Yi feels deeply ashamed and sad.

Now I personally escort the sinner Deng Xian into the hands of Bie Jia, Bie Jia can do it himself. "

Wu Yi's voice was not low when he said these words. When his words reached the ears of everyone present, words of praise for Wu Yi began to appear from the crowd watching.

Compliments similar to profound righteousness floated into the ears of Wu Yi and Fa Miao like those who don't need money.

The Han Dynasty paid attention to mutual concealment between relatives, which was not only a basic principle of the law in the Han Dynasty, but also a moral standard that the world basically abided by.

Although Deng Xian had no relatives with Wu Yi, in the Han Dynasty some close bosses and subordinates were equivalent to relatives.

This is why Wu Banfang persuaded Wu Yi to let Deng Xian escape.

It's not that Wu Ban is stupid, but such behavior is very common in today's world.

It's just obvious that Wu Yi sees farther than Wu Ban.

Perhaps the act of concealing relatives will be recognized by the world, but because of this, sometimes the act of "killing relatives with righteousness" will be praised by the world.

Many people can't do it themselves, but they don't hesitate to praise others for their actions.

Now Wu Yi personally escorted Deng Xian to Fa Miao, and anyone would praise this move as "Grand Wu's righteousness".

Even after Fa Miao saw Wu Yi's behavior, he ordered Ding Feng behind him to take Deng Xian away, and on the other hand, he also bowed to Wu Yi and said with a smile:

"Many scholars in Yizhou praised Zhengbei Gaojin, and today's style of watching the public is really well-deserved."

Fa Miao didn't have a bad impression of Wu Yi in the first place, but now that Wu Yi is very cooperative with him, it doesn't matter if he praises Wu Yi at the right time.

After Fa Miao finished praising Wu Yi, he thought about bringing Deng Xian back to Zhou Mu Mansion.

But just as Fa Miao was about to leave, Wu Yi took the initiative to say to Fa Miao, "Yi wants to go with Bie Jia to meet Uncle Mu."

Wu Yi's request was very sudden, which made Fa Miao a little puzzled.

But at this moment, he thought of Liu Bei's evaluation of Wu Yi, and a knowing look appeared on his face.

"Cherish the universal love."

What is universal love? Different people have different opinions.

Although Fa Miao does not have the incomparable intelligence of his father, Fa Miao, who has dealt with the world for Fa Zheng since he was a child, has much more unique judgment in some matters than Fa Zheng.

After realizing Wu Yi's unspoken intentions, Fa Miao did not refuse, and he readily invited Wu Yi to go with him to meet Mi Yang.

Not long after, Mi Yang, who was in the state pastoral mansion, waited for Fa Miao to return to him in person.

But what surprised Mi Yang was that Wu Yi followed Fa Miao to him.

In front of Mi Yang, Fa Miao told Mi Yang everything about Cai Cai.

Fa Miao emphatically mentioned Wu Yi's performance in personally escorting Deng Xian.

Compared with Wei Yan's approach today, Wu Yi's approach is undoubtedly easier to make Mi Yang, the superior, like it.

At the beginning, Mi Yang also expected that Wu Yi might not shield Deng Xian, but he didn't expect Wu Yi to do it more thoroughly.

Under this sense, Mi Yang looked at Wu Yi quite kindly.

After Wu Yi noticed Mi Yang's kind gaze towards him, he stepped forward and said to Mi Yang, "I have something to discuss with Uncle Mu in private."

Seeing what Wu Yi said, Mi Yang did not doubt him, so he asked Fa Miao, Lu Yi and others to retreat, leaving only Ding Feng to protect him.

The relationship between Mi Yang and Wu Yi is not so close that even the guards back off.

But when Wu Yi saw that Mi Yang had pushed back most of the people in the hall, a relaxed look instantly appeared on his face.

Under such an environment, some words can be said without scruples.

Wu Yi looked at Mi Yang in front of him, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang were compatriots, their appearances were quite similar.

Even Mi Yang's appearance is a bit like Mi Zhu, a humble gentleman.

Wu Yi also knew that Mi Yang was raised by Mi Zhu's side since childhood.

However, Mi Yang's style of work since he entered Nanzheng is quite different from that of Mi Zhu, a good old man.

Under Mi Yang's gaze, Wu Yi asked Mi Yang, "Uncle Mu was dissatisfied with Yi before?"

This is the biggest question in Wu Yi's mind right now.

Since Mi Yang took charge of Liangzhou, almost everything he did seemed to be aimed at him.

Yesterday he cut his military power, and today he sent troops to arrest his confidant Deng Xian.

Although Mi Yang has enough reputation for doing these two things, Wu Yi, who has been immersed in the field of political interests for many years, still has this question in his heart uncontrollably.

If Mi Yang hadn't been dissatisfied with him long ago, why bother to fight against him so much?

Hearing Wu Yi's question, Mi Yang couldn't help being taken aback.

Although Wu Yi didn't make his words very clear, but as a relationship between the two, it was already very straightforward for Wu Yi to ask him this question on his own initiative.

But as Wu Yi, he has the capital to ask himself this question.

Mi Yang listened to Wu Yi's question, he shook his head at Wu Yi and said, "No."

"Even before I took charge of Liangzhou, I had a lot of respect for Duke Wu in my heart."

Mi Yang did not deceive Wu Yi.

Although Mi Yang is a representative of the old relatives, Wu Yi is a representative of the new relatives of the Han Dynasty.

It is impossible to say that there is no conflict of interest between Mi Yang and Wu Yi, but the current conflict of interest between the two of them is still unclear, and it is far from even reaching the point of mutual hatred.

Of course, Mi Yang also knew why Wu Yi would ask such a question.

It's just that whether it's taking Wu Yi's military power or sending troops to capture Deng Xian, Mi Yang's starting point is mostly the overall situation.

Mi Yang is not a saint, and neither is Wu Yi.

Mi Yang has his own selfish motives for taking Wu Yi's military power alone.

All men love power and the feeling of being in power, and Mi Yang is no exception.

This is Mi Yang's selfishness, but Mi Yang's desire to control power is not for personal enjoyment.

On the one hand, this is his duty as a shepherd of Liangzhou. On the other hand, he does not want people in Liangzhou to hinder him and affect his subsequent series of reform measures.

Just like after Liu Bei's rise, he also handed over most of the military power to the Yuan Cong faction.

Without this move, how could Liu Bei thoroughly implement the "Shu Ke", which is very harsh to the wealthy family?

Even when Zhuge Liang was assisting the government in history, he made himself the actual leader of Ji Han through a series of actions.

Even in Liu Bei's will, Zhuge Liang was asked to do this.

Without this move, Zhuge Liang would not have been able to successfully launch several Northern Expeditions, let alone stabilize Ji Han, who had almost collapsed after the Yiling War.

Of course, if Mi Yang wants to do this, it will inevitably encroach on the interests of some people and cause dissatisfaction among some people, which is inevitable.

Just like Wu Yi now.

But this does not mean that Mi Yang has a personal grudge against Wu Yi, nor does it mean that Mi Yang will stop his actions because of this.

In troubled times, what should be done is what should be done. Liu Bei made him the shepherd of Liangzhou to let him govern Liangzhou well, not to let him be a good old man.

Of course, although Mi Yang accepted Wu Yi's military power based on the starting point of mastering power, he did not intend to completely abandon Wu Yi.

On the surface, Mi Yang still respects Wu Yi very much, but in fact, Mi Yang also gave Wu Yi the right to promote state officials out of compensation.

Even in Mi Yang's heart, after he restructures the army soon, he will re-grant Wu Yi the military power, so that this general will not be useless.

After Wu Yi listened to Mi Yang's answer, his face showed joy.

With Mi Yang's identity and faith, there is no need for him to deceive him.

So Wu Yi hurriedly took another step forward and said to Mi Yang, "The minister wants to ask Uncle Mu about something."

"I don't ask Uncle Mu to release Deng Xian innocently, I just want Uncle Mu to spare Deng Xian's life."

After finishing the request, Wu Yi went on to say: "If Uncle Mu can agree to my request, in the future, when it comes to Liangzhou affairs, all ministers will definitely follow the lead of the state's horse herds."

After saying this, Wu Yi looked at Mi Yang expectantly.

Since it wasn't because he was dissatisfied and was deliberately fighting for the right, Wu Yi felt that his request, or the deal, was very likely to be agreed by Mi Yang.
