Chapter 957 Kill the chicken to scare the monkey

"But General Wei is a relative of the foreign law after all, and he is not legal... He has also made some kindness. I am willing to pardon General Wei, how about it?" Liu Xie looked at Dong Hui and said unbearably.

I don’t know if he couldn’t bear to Dong Hui’s crying or Dong Cheng’s military power.

"Your Majesty, no!"

Without waiting for Ma Qiang to speak, Liu Yu immediately advised, "Your Majesty, since General Guard has violated the law, he cannot forgive him. However, our court has a method to atone for punishment and fines, so you can use it!"

After all, Liu Yu has been with Ma Qiang for so long. He believes that as long as Liu Xie dares to use imperial power to pardon, the whole world will know that Liu Xie is a foolish monarch who wants beauty but not the king. On the third day, someone will write a letter to ask Liu Xie to abdicate.

Liu Bianke is in Ji County!

Liu Xie nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes! Just let General Wei pay for the redeem!"

Ma Qiang shook his head and said, "No, General Wei violated military law, and only military achievements can be redeemed."

"General Wei escorted me and the court all the way north, and he had military achievements! He had military achievements!!"

Ma Qiang looked at Liu Xie and said slowly, "Your Majesty, whether there is any military merit is finalized by the General's Mansion. In my opinion, General Guard has heavy troops in his hand, and one cannot protect the court, and one cannot protect the court, causing countless court ministers and family members to die in Bashui, and two cannot kill the enemy outside, so that the Qiang people invade our Chang'an, how can they get military merit?

Moreover... General Wei sent someone to hunt down His Highness. If Meng Changshi, the subordinate of Wei minister, rescued His Highness, probably the queen today would have been replaced by someone else!"

After Ma Qiang finished speaking, he looked at Fushou, and Fushou recalled the danger he encountered on the Ba River that night.

Indeed, if Xiao Meng hadn't arrived on a horse and shot Sun Hui that night, she would have died outside Chang'an City.

Even after Fu Shou returned to Liu Xie, he did not explain this matter in detail. After all, he was eager to escape at that time. Whoever had the skill to study carefully would want to kill the queen?

Later, when he arrived in Hebei, Fu Shou also knew that Liu Xie and the court were undermined by Ma Qiang, so he did not mention this matter at all.

Now that Ma Qiang was pulled out, Fu Shou couldn't help but look at Dong Hui with complicated eyes.

My good sister, do you really don’t know that your father wants to kill me?

"Impossible, Your Majesty, sister, my father will never..."

"The one who was ordered to kill Your Highness was Sun Hui. Your Highness knew that the mentor Meng Chang and His Highness were witnesses that day.

So, Concubine Dong, today I am here to warn you. If General Wei confessed that you are the mastermind behind the murder of Your Highness, then don’t blame me for not speaking about the etiquette of the monarch and the ministers!”

Liu Xie looked at Fu Shou and saw Fu Shou bowing his head and silently understand. He understood in his heart, and even disliked Dong Cheng even more, and even began to dislike Dong Hui.

You should know that Liu Xie had some opinions about Dong Cheng. When he was in Chang'an, Dong Cheng, as the nephew of Empress Dowager Dong, joined Niu Fu's subordinates as generals. Although Liu Xie later followed the advice of Fu Shou, Yang Biao and others and won more attention to Dong Cheng, he always had a knot in his heart.

Now he found out that Dong Cheng was secretly trying to kill Fu Shou, and Liu Xie was the real couple in distress to Fu Shou.

"Concubine Dong, is it really you?" Liu Xie stood up and scolded Dong Hui angrily and said, "Is it really you who want to kill the queen and then replace it?"

Don’t be surprised, Liu Xie’s biological mother, Guiren Wang, was killed by He Lian, so Liu Xie hated this kind of harem fight to the core.

"Ming Gong, Zhang Sikong, Lu Shangshu, Chunyu Situ, Zhao Taiwei, Han Taipu, Liu Zongzheng and others are all looking for your Majesty."

A soldier came in to report that because Dong Cheng was involved in the case, Ma Qiang used the excuse of worrying that the remaining Dong Cheng's party might harm the emperor, so he specially led troops into the palace. The original Dong Cheng's subordinates in the palace were all taken down to be tried. It can be said that the current palace is full of Ma Qiang's people.

"It's so neat. Your Majesty, why don't we meet?"

Liu Xie clenched his fists. He knew that these people were here to plead for Dong Cheng. If it were before, he would have tried to protect Dong Cheng and save the few military power left in his hands. However, the fact that Dong Cheng wanted to kill the queen was offended by his rebellious scale. He did not want to protect Dong Cheng at all now.

"Prince!"

After a while, Zhang Xi and others came in, then greeted Liu Xie and Fu Shou, and then looked at Dong Hui who was being helped up by the servants and cried beside him. They thought that Dong Hui was crying for Dong Cheng, and they didn't know anything else.

"General, what crime did General Guard commit?"

As soon as Ma Qiang told the matter, Zhao Wen couldn't help but smile and said, "It's just 120,000 yuan, what's the point? Just ask General Wei to spend money to atone for his sins after he refunded the money. Why do you have to make such a big fight?"

"Military law is unkind. Commander of Xianyu Legion, betray our military rules!"

Xian Yufu shouted loudly and said, "Article 28, Article 20 of the New Han Military Rules, those who embezzle military pay no more than 300 coins will be 20 sticks, and one level will be reduced to one level. Those who exceed 300 coins will be 30 sticks, and one level will be reduced to three levels. Those who exceed 1,000 coins will be punished for three years, and those who exceed 3,000 coins will be killed and executed!"

In the past few months, Ma Qiang has changed the original Hebei military rules to the new Han military rules in the name of the court. Who made him now a general?

"Is the 120,000 yuan more than three thousand yuan? The ministers should be able to calculate it?" Ma Qiang smiled and said, "Chairman Liu has also checked this case, and General Wei is not unfair at all!"

"No, General, as far as I know, General Guard's troops are not under the jurisdiction of your General Guard's mansion, and these food, pay and weapons have never been enough." Chunyu Jia said, "Even General Guard can't afford to raise soldiers, how can he be greedy?"

"Haha, the money and food allocated to General Wei by the General's Mansion is sufficient. However, General Wei wants a big house, wants a servant, wants a horse and a beautiful woman, and wants a fine wine and food.

How much salary is General Wei’s one year? How much is it enough? This is because General Wei has taken into consideration that he deliberately drank less blood in his army. Otherwise, it would be more than 120,000 yuan!"

After Ma Qiang finished speaking, he looked at Liu Xie and said, "Your Majesty, the evidence in this case is conclusive. I think that the general of Wei should be dismissed and sent to the military court for judgment."

"Your Majesty, General Guard escorts His Majesty all the way north, and he is a relative of the outside world. He should be lenient for the crime!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I should be lenient for the crime!!" Zhang Xi and others shouted together.

"Your Majesty, you should discuss the crime strictly!" Ma Qiang stood up and said, "If it is not strict, how should people in the world view Your Majesty? Do you want Your Majesty to be a foolish monarch?

Your Majesty, I think, whoever dares to let His Majesty pay lenient punishment will be detained!"

As he said that, Xian Yufu and Yan Rou took a step forward together and threatened Zhang Xi and others.

"We must always know that in this world, you have to admit your mistakes, and everything comes at a price!"

Zhang Xi and others looked at Ma Qiang and knew that Ma Qiang was saying this for them.

You dare to start a debate.

Then you have to bear the price of losing.

This time I just want to destroy your military power.

Next time, what I want to abort is not necessarily the case!

"Your Majesty, be strict!" Liu Yu sighed lightly and stood up and said.

Liu Xie glanced at Dong Hui and finally made up his mind to say "Strict!!"

Zhang Xi and others instantly fell into an ice cave.

Today, Liu Xie was able to abandon Dong Cheng.
